THE REV. DR. M'NEILE AND THE REV. J. W. CONEYBEARE. The Rev. W.D. Coneybeare, has addressed the fol lowing letter to the Times of yesterday, in answer to a letter from the Rev. Dr. M'Neile to the Rev. W. J. Coneybeare, (formerly Principal of the Col legiate Institution of this town), respecting Mr. Coneybeare, junior's article in the Edinburgh Re view, on " Church Parties" : SIR,—As you have inserted in the Times of Monday, a letter, addressed to my son by Dr. M‘Neile„ demanding an explanation of many opinions which he charges my son with entertaining, and as I believe that I am myself in a great de gree chargeable with having instilled these opinions in his his mind, I think myself called upon frankly, but, I hope, not offensively, to explain the grounds on which I formed those opinions. I shall, therefore, feel obliged if you can at your convenience give admission to this answer of mine to the Rev. H. M'Neile. I remain your constant reader and servant, W. D. CONEYBEARE Llandaff, Nov. 8 "Llandaff, Nov. 8. " Dear Sir,—As you have thought it advisable to publish in the Times a letter, heavily criminating a most dear and valued son of mine for an article in the Edinburgh Review, on church parties, which you attribute to him, I trust you will allow me in return to communicate, through the same channel, some observations, which may, I trust, plead his justification. The different schools of theological opinion prevailing at the time in our country must surely be admit ted, on all hands, to form a very fit object for investigation in a publication which professes to exhibit to the public a general review of the opinions, &c., which have been intro duced to the public mind. "In executing . such a task, it appears as difficult to treat such a subject without a general classification of the several prominent schools, as it would be to draw up an elementary view of the Greek philosophy without a previous specifica tion of the various sects of the Lyceum, Academy, Portico, &c. I conceive that, in treating of these schools and their adherents, much must depend on general impressions which have been conveyed to the judgment by various channels, although the critic may have probably never thought at the time of keeping a journal of the several items on which the general opinion was founded. In some instances the opinion may in part have been derivative from the judgments incul cated by parental education ; and I feel it very probable that I may myself have been the party to mislead my son—l myself (while warmly attached to the old evangelical party of Wil berforce and the Christian Observer, which all who have known my Oxford life, know that I embraced at a period when to do so was almost to attach a black letter to one's name in the eyes of the then most influential clerical party, i. c. from 1810 to 1820.) Y e t I mus t con f ess , that the pages of the Record from its commencement nearly were regarded by me with strong regret, and, as I thought, deserved repro bation. I certainly thought, that it often took a very objec tionable view, tending to discountenance those practical exhortations to morality which the Apostles themselves never shrank from delivering with the greatest plainness, fulness, and boldness. I have not preserved any reference to individual passages, but I have a general recollection of one which will sufficiently explain what I mean. I dis tinctly recollect a paragraph in which that paper expressed regret that our communion service had collected into one series a body of scriptural texts like those which accompany the collection of alms; fearing that such a collection and con centration of all the texts might give an undue weight to the importance and meritorious character of such acts of benevolence. Now, the scruple is in its motive certainly not to be condemned ; but yet the allowing any scruple of our own minds to lead us to suppress any portion of the teaching of our Lord and his inspired followers has, I think, a clear Antinomian tendency—tendency I say, be cause the Reviewer and myself would. equally feel averse from asserting, or believing even, that th e R ecor dit es are capable of wilfully and openly proclaiming doctrines which, in their naked form, they would probably themselves shrink from as hostile to the very foundation of Christian truth. I have given this particular instance, although I cannot at present exactly refer to it ; but if the Record shall deny that it has ever published a paragraph substantially agreeing with my citation, I shall willingly go to the expense of having its columns searched and re-publishing its very words. I must now proceed to a second point, in which I shall be most reluctant to say anything which may hurt your feelings, for my son has always taught me to look with high respect (in exact accordance with the note in the Review) on your general influence of character in the second commercial city of our empire; and yet I fear that I may have been the very person who first taught him to consider you as a leader of the violent and extravagant ultra-Evangelical party. I never, indeed, thought that you meant deliberately to inculcate unchristian views, but I thought you very commonly suffered yourself to be hurried into the most intemperate and indiscreet language. I will mention the circumstance which first impressed me with this opinion ; it was the first time when I ever heard you speak of the Bible Society. I cannot give you the exact date, but I believe it was between 1830 and '35 ; the place enann. and, therefore, I suppose, as I am not familiar with any other Lund,— ,IQtforms given to that cause, the locality was in Exeter-hall. "The speech I allude to, of course—not having taken any note of at the time—l cannot give very minutely ; but I believe I report its substance and, particularly the phrases I object to, very exactly. "You bona by observing, that it .rag e. Lay gratifying to you to feel the improvers freedom of expressing religious opinions ; that tiziee or four years before you could not have venturpd, even before a Bible Society meeting, to speak so You then went on to observe, that the enemy of souls had invented different delusions, accommodated to different nations, most readily to beguile them ; that to the superior levity and gaiety of the continental character he usually addressed temptations to profligate dissipation ; but regard - - ing the English as too reflective and sober to be thus caught, his trap for us was to send among us professed teachers of religion, who perverted us by circulating 'the soul-destroy ing doctrine of repentance.' Excuse me for saying that I was horror-struck by such a phrase, which to my ears sounded like a direct contradiction of the great subject of our Lord's Baptist forerunner's preaching ; of his own while on earth ; and of that which, after the consummation of his ministry, his inspiration directed his apostle Paul to preach; and to oppose which I must regard as utterly subversive of the very introductory stage of the Christian discipline of the soul. Now, I am well persuaded that such was not your real meaning, but that you meant only to reject the idea which should consider our own repentance as the meritorious cause, or as the real expiatory act producing our own for giveness " But I hardly think more than a small minority of your audience would have been led to this candid explana tion, or caught anything but the coarse and abusive lan guage in which you stigmatized the preaching repentance generally. " Believe me, when I feel myself called on freely to ex press my sentiment, on what appears to me ill-advised and misleading statements, still (with full conviction, that I myself often run into heavier indiscretions of language,) with general respect for your long course of Christian use fulness, " Yours faithfully, "W. D. CONYBEARE " To Rev. Hugh M'Neile." RAILWAYS BETWEEN FRANCS AND SPAIN.—It is stated that the Spanish government have, in conformity with the petition of the provincial deputation of Navarre, given per mission for a commission of French engineers to examine, at the cost of the deputation, the point most suitable for connecting the French lines of railway with Navarre. In 1850, thirty-one of every hundred men, and forty-six of every hundred women, who were married, were unable to write their names, and were consequently obliged to sign the marriage register with marks. This is a disgraceful contrast to the state of education in the New England States, where there is not one man in a hundred who cannot read and write. THE WOOL OF THE ANGORA GOAT. The council of the Society of Arts has for some time past had under con sideration the introluction of the long-haired Angora goat into the colony of the Cape of Good hope, with the view to the export of its wool to Europe. The coal trade is in a remarkably healthy condition, and the demand is still in excess of the supply. RUSSIAN EMIGRATION. The Alta Californian states that a number of Russians (12,000) are preparing to emigrate to the Sandwich Islands, under the immediate auspices of the Emperor. The Fame paper calls upon the *United States Government to look into this matter, as assuredly such emigration cannot be supposed to be for the sole purpose of colonization; and that it is imp ro b a bl e th at England or France will lookupon it as such. OTHELLO AS " A LITTLE NIGGEII.." Booth's Othello was much liked in America. An old Yankee, who had never seen a play, was taken to witness Booth's perform ance of the Moor ; and on being asked, at the termination of the piece, if he liked it, he replied, "Yes, amazing ; but ens me if I don't guess that little nigger, (Othello) played as well as any o' the white fellors—if not 'better. " —A. Bunn. It is stated by the Rev. John Kershaw, canon of the Catholic Cathedral of Salford, and Bishop's visitor of the schools, that he estimates the number of Catholic children for whom no provision is made in existing day-.schools in Manchester and Salford, at 14,017. It is calculated that, in England and Wales, there are 843,750 youths between 13 and 14 years of age, and consequently just passing out of the schoolan into acti ve life, who have received no efficient instruction' to fit them for the duties thereof. This number of children would require for their instruction annually about £1,000,000. Not the most strenuous voluntary can tell us how, without a government measure, this amount is to be raised. The Rev. Mr. Clay, the chaplain of the Preston House of Correction, estimates the loss caused to the public by fifteen pickpockets, whose careers he has traced, including the value of the property stolen, expenses of prosecution and mainten ance in jail, at £26,500. At an annual exp . ense of £75 the whole fifteen might have been trained in an Industrial school and the majority of them, no doubt, would have become honest, industrious, and useful members of society. COUYTY COURT.-YESTERDAY. His HONOR sat at ten o'clock yesterday. HENDERSON V. ZWITCHENBART.—This was an action brought by the captain of the brigantine Cameleon, named Henderson, against Messrs. Zwitehenbart, Blessig and Braun, merchants, of Liverpool, to re cover the sum of 36/. 6s. 6d., for the freight of 300 sacks of flour, shipped from the port of Santander, in Spain, in January last, to the defendants. Mr. GROCOTT appeared for the plaintiffs, in the absence of Sir George Stephen ; and Mr. ASPINALL for the defence. From the evidence given by the plaintiff, it ap peared that a negociation took place between Messrs. Gallo and company, to charter the vessel with flour from Santander to Liverpool. The plaintiff accordingly chartered the vessel to these parties, with flour consigned to a party named Lorenzo de Bermingham, and 500 sacks were con signed and delivered to the defendants. Mr. Blessig, one of the defendants, offered to pay the amount of freight less 71., which he claimed to have deducted for damage. The action was accor dingly brought. Mr ASPINALL, on the part of the defendants, relied upon the fact, that the plaintiff, by his' own admission, had chartered the vessel for a lump sum of 1001. to Messrs. Gallo, not at the rate of so much a ton, and having been paid that amount, was not entitled to claim any more. If freight was to be paid to any one, it should be to Messrs. Gallo, who had chartered the vessel, and not to the plaintiff. It appeared that a larger sum was de .manded of the plaintiff than the proportionate rate at which the vessel was chartered. A lengthened legal argument took place upon the point involved in the question. After which, his HoNon said he would take time to look over the authorities, and would reserve his judgment upon the case until Monday the 21st instant. The other• cases heard daring the day possessed no features of public inter est. OPIUM. —From. a return just published it is shown tha he importation of opium has increased. In the month endodt the 10ah ule., the quaetity was 36,759 lbs. Catherine Hayes has been very successful on the Pacific shore, and it is stated that she has sent home $50,000 for the purchase of an estate.—New York Herald. Mr. Dargan has contributed the munificent sum of £lOO towards the relief of the sufferers by the late flood in Mallow. By a canvass from house to house throughout two muni cipal wards in Manchester; containing a population of nearly 50,000 persons, it is found, that of all the youths between 13 and 14 years of age, one in every 3 5 1 have never been to a day-school. Messrs. Napier and Edmonds have arrived in Stockholm, as representatives of the English railway firm, Peto, Betts, Bramy, and . Geach, to treat with th e Swedish government on the concession of a new line of railway from Gothenburg. to Stockholm, probably with one o r more extens i ve b ranch lines. THE FRENCH OPERA.—MdIIe. Sophie Cruvelli, on Satur day last, signed an engagement with the Opera for two years at a salary of £4,000 sterling a-year. She is to choose her own parts, to play only twice a-week, and to have four month's vacation in each year. In case she should be called upon to sing three times a-week, the extra night is to be paid £6O. A separate engagement is entered into for two months of the lady's vacation, during the Universal Exhibi tion of 1855, at the rate of £lOOO per month, so that the salary for the second year will, in fact, be £6,000. DECREASE OF CRIME IN IRELAND. —Although the propor tion of offenders in Ireland to her population, when it is compared with that of England and Scotland, is lamentably great, yet there is a decided progressive improvement in her social state, as evinced by the decrease in the number charged with offence :-1850, compared with 1849, showed a decrease in the number charged with offence before the tribunals of Assizes and Quarter Sessions, of 10,663 ; 1851, comparedwith 1850, a decrease o f 6,642 ; andnow, 1852, com pared with 1851, shows a furth er d ecrease of 7,006. ' Being a total decrease in the last three years of 24,311. This de crease in 1852 will be found to have taken place in every class of offence, which cannot be said of either England or Scotland. As regards Ireland, the decrease exists not only in every class of offence, but in every province. TERRIBLE PUBLIC EXECUTION.—At an execution of fear criminals in Mexico, on the 24th of September, a shocking addition was made to the suff er in gs o f one o f t h e crim inals.''' Three were garotted with the accustomed readiness ; but on the executioners endeavouring to perform the last functions on the fourth, the machinery could not be made to work. For some minutes endeavours to force it to do so were made, but in vain ; and finally the unfortunate victim was obliged to be released from the chair, to gaze on the corp ses o f hi s fellow sufferers, while one of them was lifted out to make room for him, and, finally to take his seat in the chair thus vacated, there to undergo his sentence. This was the second time, of late, that a similar shocking scene has been witnessed:in Mexico.—yew York Herald. qmnira —On Wednesday, John Lee, a private in the first battalion of uoiustreasn urees es, ees brought up tn I. .7.1,u - s-woocl Barracks, in custody, from St. George's Barracks, Charing-cross to receive corpo ra l punishment, pursuant to the sentenc e o f a court-martial held on Friday last. It appeared that on Thursday last, when returning from guard, he was addressed by the sergeant on a slight breach of military discipline, when he used very. abusive language, and showed other signs of insubordination. so much so that he was threatened with an arrest. This appear ed to be altogethei without the desired effect, forhe continued to use very violent language, and eventually he drew his bayonet and threatened the sergeant with personal violence, but he was overpowered and taken into custody. For this offence he was, as stated above, tried by a court-martial, and sentenced to receive fifty lashes. He was accordingly tied up and the stated number of lashes inflicted, which he received with a firmness befitting a better man, scarcely uttering a cry, and at its conclusion he was heard, it is stated, to express his determination to have his revenge. THE MARCH or MATRIMONY.—Ten young couples are on the books of the Gateshead Union for marriage, their respective ages bein g 22 an d 20, 2 0 and 22, 20 and 18, 25 and 27, 30 and 25, 30 and 21, 21 and 19, 22 and 20, 20 and 19, and 24 and 25. So great, indeed, is the demand in Gateshead for wives that a young widow who lost her hus band by the epidemic in September was nominated on Sun day in our parochial church as the bride-elect of a young bachelor ! There is a line in Hamlet which will rise to the reader's eye ; but before he quotes it, let him listen to the recital of another domestic romance, the remembrance of which has been revived by the occurrence of Sunday. There was once a coal-mine explosion on the Tyne, and many lives were sacrificed. The bodies of the dead could not be recovered until some weeks had passed away ; and the corpse of one married man, when it was carried hom e , found th e w id ow l y i ng b y the side of another husband! She had wedded her new spouse before burying his prede cessor. Shakespeare " exhausted worlds, and th en i mag i ne d new ;" but he never dreamt of "the marriage baked meats coldly furnishing forth the burial tables !" Real life is more than a match for fiction. —Gateshead Observer. CAUGHT NAPPING.—One of the railway porters at Con way (says a correspondent), experienced a practical joke on Thursday last which, I doubt not, will in future keep him a little more wide-awake." This man was left to attend to the train arriving at Conway about 12 p.m., from Chester. Two gentlemen, expecting to meet a f r i en d, went to t h e station at that time, a n d found the porter fast asleep—so much so, that it was impossible to rouse him. After several ineffectual attempts to waken him, they determined to punish him for his neglect. They first blackened his face most effectually, and then cut off as fine a pair of whiskers as you could meet with in a nine days' march. When the train had actually arrived they rang the bell in his ears, which aroused him, and in a half-bewildered state he called out, " Conway, Conway !" He weer dreamt of the figure he cut. This discovery he made on his return home, and it is already manifest that he is much more active since this joke was played upon him, and I quea ti o n if th e most severe reprimand would have answered so well. WHAT IS THE MAINE LAW ?—lt is an act to put an end to traffic in intoxicating drinks among the people. It has nothing to do with a man's own private affairs •, it has nothing to do with the interior of any man's family ; any man, wherever he can find liquor, if he chooses may purchase it, and bring it into his own family, and use it there if he likes—the law does not touch it or him. It considers every man's house his castle, and if he has a mind to drink in the bosom of his family, it does not take hold of him ; it leaves him free in that respect. But if any man does bring intoxi cating liquors into th e St a t e f or sa l e, if h e sells i ntoxicating drink to make money by it, if he even gives it away, and takes something else to evade the law, what does the law do? It takes all his rum away, and throws it on the ground. It does not touch his pocket or his person, but it says,—" You are not a fit person to have the possession of intoxicating drink, and we shall take it away." If a man takes solemn oath that he will not sell, and does not intend to sell, any of that spirit, it leaves him unmolested. —Tait. RAILWAY ROUND THE BRISTOL QUAYS.—This project has been favourably received, and that the undertaking will be matured by the Bristol Chamber of Commerce, who have been in communication with the various railway companies and influential parties on the subject. The object aimed at is to connect the quays and wharfage of the city with the grand terminus of the three lines of rail which there con verge, thus bringing. the very heart of the city into rapid connection with the lines. The plan has been 'natured, and the cost estimated; it is proposed to run a line of rails around the various quays, upon the same level, and converge these to the south side of Queen-square, where a large depot, or goods terminus, would be constructed. The goods thus collected will be raised by hydraulic power to a higher level, whence they will:be carried across the float to the opposite wharf on a bridge having an opening of about 30 feet, thence running along a line of rail which will be constructed and carried over the great public thoroughfares, upon the same level as the main lines of rail. This would be accom plished by a series of arches forming a long viaduct about 16 feet in height. Branch lines with inclined planes would be made for the purpose of facilitating the removal .of the immense rafts of timber now floated up, THE NORTHERi':; AN ABSCONDING BA:241i(114-:-CURIOU:S'' Mr. B. Davis, draper, Ilolywell, lately declareda Bankrupt, was brought up in custody, at the Police Court yesterday, informations being sought to be returned against him for not having surrendered iu conformity with the summons of the Bankruptcy Court. Mr. Evans, attorney for the winding up of the estate, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Owens for the pri soner. Mr. George Harber, Usher of the Liverpool District Court of Bankruptcy, was examined, and produced the original proceedings in the Court of Bankruptcy, against the pri soner. The final petition was lodged on the 3rd, and adju dication on the sth of last May. The 16th of June was fixed for the surrender, but the bankrupt did not appear. Mr. Henry Ayres, clerk to Mr. Gaskett, messenger of the Liverpool District Court of Bankruptcy, was also exa mined, and proved having sent the summons for surrender to a person-in Holywell, to serve on the bankrupt. Mr. Bell, Auctioneer, Holywell, then deposed to having received the summons of surrender, and to having posted it up in the shop occupied by the bankrupt. On cross-exami nation, however, it appeared that the witness had the keys of the shop and house which had been occupied by the bankrupt, and that on posting up the summons within the shop, he again locked up the house, taking the keys with him. Mr. Owen contended that this was not a proper service. If the summons were posted up outside the house, then it might be a good service ; but it was absurd to say that it was a good service when the summons was posted so that it was impossible for the bankrupt to see it. The prisoner was therefore entitled to be discharged. Mr. Evans contended that he had complied with the language of the act, and if that were defective he should not be held responsible for it. The• bankrupt had left the house—they knew not where he was, and therefore they could give him no other notice than what they had done, and publishing it in the Gazette. The Magistrate observed that it was quite clear they had posted the summons where the bankrupt could not see it. Mr. Evans replied that they could not avoid that. They had left the summons in accordance with the act, when he could not be found himself, at the " last known place of his abode." The 2lagistrate : Yes, but inside the house, where, you having the key, it was impossible that the bankrupt could see it. Mr. Evans still contended that they had complied with the language of the act. The Magistrate replied that, at all events, they had not complied with the spirit of the act ; for common sense should have taught them, in the case in question, that the proper place for posting the summons was outside the house. The prisoner should therefore be discharged. The number of children in the Metropolitan Police dis trict at large and living in idleness, without education, and apparently neglected by their parents, of the lower cla.ses, who arc generally in the receipt of wages, amount, as near as can be ascertained, to 20,641 under 15 years of age. IMPORTATION OF GuANo.—There has been an increase in the importation of guano. It appears from returns just printed, that in the month ended the 10th October last there were 5,159 tons imported, against 3,590 in the preceding month. How CIGARS ARE MADE.—In the Lancet of Saturday, a report of the analysis of cigars is given. The general mass of cigars examined had no adulteration," but some samples are thus described ;—" Made up in the centre with sweepings, probably of the warehouse. It contains dust, dirt, fragments of mortar, pieces of apple pairing, and much broken and refuse tobacco-leaf. Purchased of a hawker in Whitechapel-road—These cheroots were made up of two twisted wrappers or layers of thin brown paper, while the interior consisted entirely of hay, not a particle of tobacco entering into their composition." HORRIBLE ATROCITY AT NEW YORK.--During the past week the most intense excitement has been manifested in consequence of a rape and murder pe r p e t ra t e d on th e per son of Catherine Quickley, a very interesting girl of four teen of fifteen years of age. The parents of the girl are natives of Ireland, and came to this country some two years and a half ago. On Sunday Catherine went to school in the afternoon ; and her non-arrival at home exciting alarm, the whole of the next day was spent in making search. About sun-down the body was found in a pond near Jamaica. A meeting of tho citizens was called, a vigilance com mittee formed, and subscriptions amounting to five hundred dollars were obtained, and offered as'a reward for the de tection and, conviction of the guilty parties. The governor of the State has also offered a reward of one thousand dol lars additional. On Monday, a roughly dressed Irishman, who is said to have been prowling about in the woods for the last day or two was arrested. The prisoner was brought to Jamaica, his clothing examined, and on his linen were found spots of blood, mid in other places of his clothing traces of blood, as if water had been applied in endeavours to wash it out. A legal investigation is now going on.— Xew York Weekly Herald. TUBULAR LIFE-RAFT.—On Wednesday an exhibition of Mr. Parratt's tubular life-raft took place on the Serpentine, in the presence of several persons of nautical and scientific knowledge and experience, including Captain Washington, R.N. ; Captain Ward, imspector of life-boats ; Mr. Lewis, which which attracted much attention, and was very narrowly ex ambled by the gentlemen present, i s compose d o f vulcanized india-rubber tubes, enclosed in canvass cases and nettings, so arranged and lashed to cross spars as to fo r m, when extend ed, an excellent contrivance not only for floating on the water, but being rowed like a boat, and capable of being conveyed with ' safety through a surf or heavy sea. The object of the inventor, 'when he turned his attention to th e subject, was to provide an apparatus, which, in the case of disasters at sea, could be made quickly available for the saving of human life, which could be easily lowered into the water, and when there capable of sustaining a great number of persons, without danger of sinking. This end Mr. Parratt's invention see ms well calculated to attain. He proposes that on board ship the raft should be so constructed as to occupy the interior of a long-boat, or of any ordinary boat carried on a ship's davits ; that the tubes should be always kept 'inflated, so as to be ready at a moment's notice, and that it should be either lowered in the boat or extended to its largest dimensions on deck, by lashing a spar across the longitudinal spars (the work of two minutes), and then dropped into the water, without the use of any machinery whatever. Alf danger of swamping is avoided by the buoyan c y o f th e ma t e rial, and such is the nature of its construction that, even should the raft capsize, it would still offer a large surface on which shipwrecked persons might rest with safety. The capabilities of the raft were on Wednesday tried in a. variety of ways, and successfully so, though, of course, the circumstances of the experiments being made on the calm surface of the Serpentine, and not in a storm at sea, must, as in all similar cases, be fully conside re d. I n order to test the strength of the tubes used, and to prove how easily one of these life-boats or 'rafts might be launched, a "tubular collapsing boat," invented by Mr. Parratt, was carried upon the bridge over the Serpentine, and thence thrown into the water below. It sustained not the slightest injury, and, though it fell keel up, so to speak, it nevertheless presented, as it floated away, sufficient breadth to hold a large number of people. This collapsing boat consists of tubes lashed round a frame work of a boat-like shape, with three " thwarts," which shut up like a purse. The bottom consists of nettings to enable the water to have a free course ' and the thwarts are kept expanded by means of what are called moveable fishes. By this peculiarity of construction the boat will occupy very little space on board ship. Two other inventions, of a somewhat different kind, attracted the notice of the com pany. One was a tubular ice -raft, for the saving 6f life when endangered by accidents on the ice—a very simple and ingenious piece of mechanism. The other was a pon toon bridge or raft, easily portable, and designed for the conveyance of troops over streams in remote and unfre quented districts. Altogether the exhibition was a satis factory one; the principle of Mr. Parratt's inventions ap peared to be generally approved, and he readily gave ear to one or two suggestions by which it was thought the construction of the raft might be amend Ail THE DISMISSAL OF THE REV. PROFESSOR MAURICE FROM KING'S COLLEGE.—In compliance with a special demand made by Mr. Maurice, Dr. Jelf has prepared the whole of the correspondence which passed between himself and the professor relative to the charge of unsoundness of doctrine which led to his recent dismissal. It appears that the cor respondence commenced as far back as July 8, on which day Dr. Jelf addressed a letter to the professor, in which he stated that his attention had been called by high authority to the conclusion of the last of Mr. Maurice's theological lectures, lately published, and proceeds as follows:—" It is alleged that you therein deny the eternity of future punish ments. I have read the essay with attention, and confess that it appears to me to bear that interpretation ; at least, the impression it gives seems to • throw an atmosphere of doubt on the simple meaning of the word eternal, and to convey a general notion of ultimate salvation for all. I am, of course, most anxious to ascertain your real meaning." To this letter Mr. Maurice replied on the next day, stating that he believed in the doctrine of eternal punishment, or death, in that sense which seemed to him most consistent with the other uses of the word " eternal" in the New Testament ; but that he did not believe in the doctrine in that sense which is given to it, or seems to be given to it, in many popular discourses and theological treatises, and that he repudiates that sense as inconsistent with the Gospel. lie adds —" To state my convictions on this subject was a duty which I felt that I owed to thousands of young English men whose faith in the redemption of Christ, even in the being of God, is at stake. I could not but tell them, be cause I believe it is true, that the statements which have led them to identify the God and Father of our Lord with the evil spirit, are not derived from the orthodox faith ; that they are a strange product of Galvanism and Locke philoso phy, and of the morbid consciousness of individuals." On the 14th of July Dr. Jelf wrote to state that the professor's views filled him with the most intense alarm, and intimated that as the rev. gentleman's letters were, he presumed, official ones, he should lay them before the clerical members of the council, and if need be before the council itself. At length Dr. Jelf decided that the ultimate decision mustpass into other hands than his own, and Mr. Maurice was re moved from his professoiship under circumstances with which our readers arc already familiar. DAILY TIMES. TILE EXPORT BEER TRADE.—By a return officially pre pared, it seems that in the month ended the 10th ult. the value of beer and ale exported was 43,299/. In the pre ceding month, the value was 36,985/. FOREIGN POTATOES.—In the month ended the 10th ult. there were as many as 83,857 cwt. of potatoes imported, being a great increase on the preceding month, when only 36,803 cwt. were imported. They are free of duty. At the Cabinet Council on Thursday, which sat three hours, the ministers present were—the Earl of Aberdeen, Lord John Russell, the Lord Chancellor, Earl Granville, the Duke of Argyll, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Viscount Palmerston, the Earl of Clarendon, the Duke of Newcastle, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir James Graham, Sir Charles Wood, the Right Hon. Sidney Herbert, and Sir W. 3.lolesworth. TITHES—A return, procured by Lord Harry Vane, was on Wednesday printed, of all the appropriate tithes that have fallen into the hands of the Ecclesiastical Commission ers, and of the mode in which they have been dealt with. There are 44 places mentioned in the document, some of which have been appropriated to the common fund of the Commis sioners, and a number applied to other purposes. THEATRICALS AT WINDSOR.—The first dramatic per formance at Windsor Castle, this season, took place on Thursday evening. The piece selected upon thi s occas i on, was Shakspeare's historical play of Kin g Henry V. At eight o'clock, her Majesty the Queen, and his Royal High ness Prince Albert, entered the Reuben's room, accompanied by an illustrious circle, when the performance commenced. The part of King Henry the fifth was sustained by Mr. Phelps. The performance was under the direction of Mr. Charles Kean. The wife of the late Professor Webster, (who was exe cuted in America for the murder of Dr. Parkman) died at Boston on the evening of the 18th ult. She was a lady much esteemed and respected among a large circle of ac quantances there. The terrible crime and fate of her hus band had cast a gloom over her life ever since that event, which, beyond the power of the kindest synipathias to dis pel, has at length followed her to the grave. TICKET or LEAVE CONvlCTS.—Twenty-eight of the con victs serving out their periods of transportation at Wool wich, to which they were sentenced for offences against the laws of this country, have received tickets of leave, or free licences, to reside in any place they choose in this kingdom, and follow their callings, or any kind of industry for which they may be fltted—twenty from tho Defence, convict-hulk at the Royal Arsenal, and eight from the Warrior hulk at the Dockyard. Thirty-nine convicts have been sent to Woolwich, to make up for the vacancies owing to the libera tion of the twenty-eight convicts, and other causes. CASE OF Wrrefren.trr.—An extraordinary case which shows, unhappily, that the mediaeval notions of wit c h cra ft are not yet eradicated from the minds of the lower order, was tried at the petty sessions last Monday. Two females, Mary Corcoran, senior, and Mary Corcoran, junior, mother and daughter, were charged by Mary Conry and Sally Conry with extorting money and value from them, under the fol lowing circumstances : It appea r ed th a t M ary C onry ' s hus band had been ailing of some distemper which baffled all medical appliances previously employed, upon which she applied to Mary Corcoran, who told her that unless a cer tain herb were administered, and a portion of the husband's clothing burned between sun-set and sunrise, that death would impend over the house. As the guerdon of their mystic skill, the brace of sorceresses received five stones of potatoes, seven pence in cash, and a portion of the husband's clothes. But notwithstanding the potent spells employed, no good effects followed, and the poor dupes becoming at length sensible of the imposture, summoned the pseudo witches before the magistrates, who sent the two Corcorans, whom the wisdom of our ancestors would have doomed to the stake, to the next quarter sessions for trial, having re fused bail for their appearance.— Galway Vindicator. THE GREAT AND THE LITTLE REPUBLIC.—An interest ing account is given in the American papers of negocia tions between Mr. Squier, the agent of some New York capitalists, and the Government of San Salvador, with re gard to a new channel of inter-oceanic communication across the territory of that State. This scheme has been for months in preparation, and seems to promise decided advantages over Nicaragua, Panama, Tehuantepec, Atrato, or any oth er of the various i s th mus routes. The line on the Atlantic side is to begin at th e G u lf o f A mat i gue, or some other con venient harbour on the Bay of Honduras, and traverse the country, as directly as pra c ti ca bl e , to the Gulf of Fon seca, on the Pacific. The distance from New York to the Atlantic depot of the road will he much less than to, the Tehuantepec terminus, to San Juan del Norte, or AspinW a ll. The length of the road will b e f rom 100 to 200 miles ; and the Gulf of Fonseca is far the best harbour on the Pacific south of San Francisco. The San Salvador route runs through a perfectly healthy, as well as very beautiful coun try, where a road can be built without costing the lives of its labourers. Mr. Squier went out to Central America sonic mouths since, to secure, if possible, the right of way and other necessary privileges from the various states through which the line must run. W e h ave now b e f o i e us, in Spanish, his correspondence w ith th e comm i ss i oner of San Salvador, from which it would seem that conditions are de manded by that Government which would prove fatal to the enterprise, and which he very properly rejects. The com missioner is evidently possessed with the idea that the United States is nothing but an omnivorous giant, bat on swallow ing all the rest of mankind, and this railroad will simply c . o u ni [ m eg en tu e r e es th t e ha d t ee n l o ut o i t tho e n r of tio t v h e e ri l m ill e i n n t S s t h n al t' llfe:3l:eki;Ol i de; in the road, and that all the private stockholders shall re nounce all other rights against the State than those which they may have by its laws. Thus, if they are foreigners, they are required to abandon their rights under the public law of the world, and to agree to seek redress for any viola tion of those rights in the courts of San Salvador alone. The commissioner also requires, as a preliminary to closing the contract, a deposit of $lOO,OOO, on which the State will pay 6 per cent. interest, the principal to be forfeited to the Treasurer in case the company fail to fulfil all their stipula tions. To the first of the above demands Mr. Squier replies that as regards the United States, the clause is superfluous, that Government being constitutionally prohibited from holding stock in any such undertaking, As for the second, it is out of the question for subscribers to the company to divest themselves of their national rights. And as for the third, the company cannot bind itself by a forfeiture until careful and complete surveys have left no doubt as to the practicability of the work. LIVERPOOL MARKETS.—YESTERDAY. Written expressly for the Northern Daily Times. SUGAR. —There has been still less doing in the market to day, the business being confined to a small lot of Bahia, in barrels at 21s 3(1-4) cwt. No further sales have taken place in Molasses ; neither has anything occurred in Rum or Coffee. RICE continues to be purchased freely, the transactions consisting of 145 tierces Carolina, at 23s 63, in b on d ; 2,000 bags Arracan, at 12 s 9d; an d 500 bags Bengal, at 15s 3d cwt. Nine hundred bags Sago Flour have realised 21s to 21s 6d ; and 200 bags Saltpetre, at 29s 4 cwt, five per cent. refraction. TEA.—Business has been concluded to a fair extent at ft rates. CorroN.—The sales to-day are 8,000 bales, 1,000 having been taken on speculation and for export. The market closes quiet. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—YESTERDAY. The state of the weather has remained most favourable throughout the country, which may truly be looked upon, in a national point of view, as most important, as the seed will now be committed to the ground under circumstances much more auspicious than was at one time feared would be the case. The trade still moves slowly in the various markets of the kingdom, and in most of them a decline about equivalent to the reduction previously established in this and other leading places, is quoted; but with scarcely any fresh arrivals at calling ports, and the prospect of little coming forward from the Black Sea, &c., before the spring of next year, there is already on the part of holders evidence of a stronger feeling, and an impression of improved demand shortly prevailing. A moderately fair business has been transacted here during the past two days in Wheat and Flour, at steady prices, with some demand for the latter from Ireland ; we have also inquiry for Indian Corn, the consumption in this country for feeding being considerable, and that in Ireland being some what on the increase. A few small parcels of Barley and Oats, with a further good supply of Oatmeal, include the main portion of Irish produce into this port during the last three days; the re ceipts at the same time coastwise scarcely deserving notice. The aggregate of arrivals fresh in direct from abroad are also comparatively moderate, containing merely 7,012 qrs o f Wheat, and 7,000 ba rre l s of Flour from the United States, and various parts of Europe : the exports so far during the week being light. The market to-day has been less active than was expected, we had not many buyers in attendance, and the general transactions in Wheat were only of moderate amount, few parcels of any magnitude being taken ; holders were, how ever, firm, and the currencies of Tuesday are fully main tained. For Flour, also, which was in fair request, and not freely offered, we repeat the rates of that day. Barley, of which a number of secondary parcels appeared, was 2d 19 bushel cheaper, choice dry qualities supporting our late quotations. Beaus are in slow request. Fine Oats, from scarcity, realise their previous value, but inferior descriptions are somewhat cheaper. Oatmeal dull, and the value scarcely supported. Indian Corn only in retail demand, but without any change in price. REVIEW FOR THE WEEK. Sugar.—ln the absence of supplies of refining descrip tions, the transactions of the week have been limited, the Grocers not being buyers, and the sales are confined to 250 hhds B. P. 1200 bags D a t es at 34s 6d to 36, and a cargo of new blown Mauritius, to arrive, at 33s 6d per cwt.—Of Foreign, the sales are 40 cases, GOO bans ordinary brown Muth° at 18s to 18 Gd in b on d , and '2OO hhds. Porto Rico and Cuba . Muscovado at 32s Gd to 37s 6d per cwt duty paid. The sales of Molasses are limited to 250 puns. Barbadoes at 18s, and 50 puns. clayed Cuba at 16s 6cl' per cwt. Coffee.—The public sale of Jamaica went off with fair spirit, 70 tees. being disposed of at 483 to 88s per ewt. for good ordinary to fine middling._ . Rice.--The demand has again revived, and the recent decline • in Bengal • has been fully recovered ; the sales are 100 tees. Carolina at 235, 5000 bags Bengal from 14s 6d to 15s 3d for middli ng t o fi ne w hi te, and 300 bags table, to arrive, at 14s 9d to 15s, also 1500 pockets at 15s 6d, 2000 bags Madras at 13s 9d to arrive, and about 10,000 bags Arracan at 12s 6d to 12s 9d per cwt, in the warehouse. Rum.— There is a fair demand from the Trade; the sales consist of 130 puns. Demerara, at fully previous rates. Tea.—The Overland Telegraph, via Trieste, which arrived,on Tuesday, with accounts that the City of Shanghai was in the posses sion of Insurgent Troops, caused considerable excitement in the market, and a large business has been done, both by the Trade and Speculators, in all kinds of Congou, at dto ld. per lb. advance; holders'generallyarenot offering their Teas, pend ing the delivery of the letters, which are expected to mor row. No new feature to notice in green Teas, except a little more disposition shown by the Trade to buy. The sales of East India Drysaltery Articles have been only to a trifling extent; 2400 bags Myrambolams sold at 9s 3d to 13s, 150 boxes Pearl Sago at 18s 6d, 50 tons of Sago Flour to arrive at 21 s , and 250 bags in store at 22s per cwt. Saltpetre is without change, but the demand mo derate at the extreme rates • 100 bags only report e d, a t 28s Gd to 29s per ewt.—!A speculative demand has am. peared for Nitrate of Soda, and 2000 tons sold, of which 1600 tons are for arrival at 17s to 18, and 400 tons on the spot at 17s 6d to 18s 6d ; the market is firm at • the latter rate. The tranactions in Dyewoods aro upon a moderate scale, with little variations in prices; the sales consists of 65 tons Compeachy Logwood at £8 ss, 10 tons of Tobas. co at £7 10s, 25 tons of St. Lucia and Jamaica at £5 ss. and 12 tons Red Sanders Wood at £7 lOs for damaged, to £8 5s per ton for sound. American Rosin in demand 700 brls. sold at Os Gd to 13s p er c wt. N o sales in Tur pentine ; but of Stockholm Tar, 2000 brls. have been sold at- 18s to 20s per cwt. About 200 brls. Ashes sold at 31s 68 for , Pot, and at 28s per cwt. for Pearl—Clover seed in limited demand, but holders are very firm. Linseed attracts considerable attention, 2500 bags Bombay having been sold, to arrive, at 54s 6d, and 700 bags, ex ship, at 55s 3d. Of Nigerseed, 200 bags have been taken at 48s per quarter. The marketfor Hides continuesquit, and the only sales to.report are a few salted River Plate at ‘Qd to 4id perili. There continues to be a moderate demand for Brimstone; about 300 tons taken, including a cargo to arrive, at pre vious rates. Only small sales made in Sumac. Argols are much inquired for, but few offering ; scarcely anything done. Cream of Tartar continues to advance, and 160 s. has been realised this week ; the sales are about 40 casks, from•lsss. to 160 s. per cwt. Of.Quercitron Bark, 200 bags Baltimore brought 7s. 3d. per cwt., and 15 casks flag Annato Is. 444 to Is. sd. per lb. The sales of Madder Roots reported are 100 bales Bombay at 375., and 85 bales fine Tripoli at 525. per cwt. The demand for Olive Oil continues nearly sus nended, and the few sales made have been in favour of the buyers. About 50 tuns Seal Oil, principally boiled and co loured, have been sold without change in price, and 60 tuns Cod, on the spot and to arrive, at per tun, also 5 tuns :perm Oil at £B5. Linseed Oil is in moderate demand at 30s. 6d. to 315.; 30 tons pale Rape are reported at 41s. Gd. to 425. per cwt. Small parcels of Spirits of Turpentine realize 595. to 60s. per cwt. Palm Oil has in a few instances been soid rather lower, but upon the whole, the market is steady : the sales are about 100 tons on the spot at £39 10s. to £4O, and 300 tons to arrive, also at £39 10 s . t o £4O p er ton. The Tallow m ar k e t has been flat throughout the week ; small sales of Petersburg Y.C. have been niade at 575., and about 200 pipes South American, of good and fine quality, sold at 555. to 565. per cwt. Of Lard only small sales are reported at 58s. to 595. per cwt. Baltic Hemp continues without change . The only sal e o f J u t e rep o rte d i s a small parcel at £22 to £23 per ton. CorroN.—The only new feature bearing upon Cotton is to be found in the American accounts, which report the occur rence of a frost in some of the Cotton districts, although at present there is no evidence of any injury of moment having been sustained ; however, as prices continued high,. and the receipts and shipments were unusually light, some little effect has been produced upon our market during the last tii days. The mills at Wigan, Preston, Burnley, &c., are still closed, and the consumption consequently is largely diminished, hence spinners, light as their stocks are, take only a limited quantity out of the Market, but as the buying for export and speculation has been rather more than usual of late, the business reaches a fair extent, and amounts to 46,000 bales. American descriptions generally have been pretty steady, and the middle qualities particularly, or Cotton at about 5', 7 d. to 6d. per lb. being scarce, and much run upon, are dearer by 1-16 to 1-8 per lb. In Brazils there is a fair retail business doing, at steady prices. No improve ment whatever can be noticed in Egyptians. There has been a good demand for Swats, and large sales have been made at slightly better prices, the market having recovered from . the depression of the preceding week. 6960 bales American, 120 Brazil, 120 Egyptian, and 4960 Surat, & c ., have been taken on s p ecu l a ti on and for Export; and 32,900 bales by the trade. The actual Export consists of 380 American, 30 Brazil, &c., and 1,540 East India—in all 1,950 bales. The imports for the week are 9170 bales. PitcvisioNs.—The fine descriptions of beef have this week attracted more attention, and sales to a fair extent are re ported at full prices; ordinary qualities continue neglected. Pork sells slowly, without change in value. There is a moderate retail demand for bacon, and, in the absence of arrivals, the stock slowly reduces. Lard is a slow sale, at last week's quotations; holders, however, show no disposition t. y the market, The :d eman d for fine Cheese is toler ably active, but secondary sorts are difficult to sell. At a farther decline of is per cwt. Tallow is very dull. Linseed Cake is rather easier. There has been a very quiet week in the Corn Market, the sales being confined to the consump tive purchases of the millers and dealers. Prices in a few instances have been in favour of buyers, but generally holders are very firm, and, as the stock, especially of Flour, is small, there is a growing feeling that higher rates are to be looked for. To-day the market was steady, but not very active.
