About half-past eleven a policeman met the After having seen the safe put on the platform at prisoner in the street with two pair of Mr. Clegg's boots, and Folkstone, Agar and Pierce proceeded to Dover as first- some stockings belonging to Mrs. Clegg, tied up in a bundle, class passengers, Pierce being disguised in a false wig, and as he could not tell where he got these articles, the o ffi cer black whiskers, and a broad - brimmed hat.

On their arrival in town, the heroes of the tale proceeded to convey their stolen treasure to the house of Pierce, he having first disposed of part of the gold coins at a shop at the oorner of St. Mary Axe and the rest at a shop in the Haymarket. Here terminatei one of the most ingenious and remark able examples of robbery upon record, clearly proving that the metropolis is infested with a set of men who are actively engaged in a system of plunder which is con ducted with as much skill and perseverance as the ordinary pursuits of business, and in so secret a manner as to elude the detection of all around, As the prisoner who has made the abova confession has yet to be further subjected to public examination, we shall reserve our remarks on the evidence,—Bankers' Circular. the rest BEFORE MR. J. AIBIN The Rev. C. H. Spurgeon made another appearance on Sunday, in the Music Halt of the Surrey Gardens. The awful catastrophe, and the great loss of life which attended his ministrati •ns a few Sundays since, instead of deterring persons from attending, seemed to have raised the curiosity of the public to a still greater pitch, and many thousands more than on the former occasion were present, in fact, some twelve or fourteen thousand persons of both sexes, who had arrived there before the time announced for divine service to commence, were forced to remain a considerable distance from the grand entrance in Penton place, Newington. The Pushing and squeezing in order to get nearer the gates were for two or three hours truly terrific. It should be stated, that in order to provide as much as possible against the recurrence of a similar scene as that which took place in the same hall on the previous occasion, the seat-holders were admitted prior to the public, but many privileged persons had also been accommodated with tickets of admission. Some hundreds of these were equally unfortunate in being able to get into the building, or even into the gardens as those who had not procured the right of entry, it being almost impossible for any one, more especially females to stand the pressure of such an immense crowd. At eleven o'clock the hall was considered to be as full as it ought to be for the convenience of those within, and a large printed placard was hoisted at the main entrance, which stated that " The Hall is quite full." This appeared t? have given great dissatisfaction to all outside, who pushed forward most vigorously for the purpose of forcing an entrance ; but, fortunately, there was a powerful muster of the P division of police present, under Mr. Superintendent Lund and Sergeant Copnin, who kept the gates from being forced, otherwise some thousand more persons would have got within the gardens ; and, if such had been the case, it is impossible to tell what confusion, and probably acci dent, would have arisen. The reverend gentleman entered the temporary pulpit at the usual time for the service to commence, wilen, after prayer and singing a hymn, he expounded that portion of the G)spel referring to the crucifixim ; after singing another hymn, the reverend gtntleman said that, becore he commenced the sermon, he should lik3 his friends to know that 10,000 reports had been raised by 10,000 persons that they wanted to erect a tabernacle capable of holding 15,000 persons. Now he strotigly denied that; what was proposed was, to erect a place capable of holding 5,000. At the present time, their own church was no Dirge enough, and it grieved him to see so many persons that were forced to be turned away from he want of room. They had, therefore, for the present . hired that hall for morning worship, so that the poor, as well as the rich, might heir the Word of God preached. They did not intend to send the collecting boxes round that morning, hut there was a great expense in hiring the hall, and the collectors, as the congregation went out, would bold the boxes at the door. Those who were unable to give anything were not expected, but those who could perhaps would give on their own account, and for those who were unable themselves. They were inconvenienced in being obliged to leave their own church, and preach there, but his (the preacher's) only motive was to try to win souls over to the few weeks, Lord. The reverend gentleman, who, on surveying his vast congregation, seemed to have been suddenly struck with the awful scene he witnessed when he occupied the same position before, concluded by saying that no one could tell the feelings he had at that time. A fter which he delivered a most eloquent sermon from the sth Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans, Bth verge—" But God Cm mendeth his love towards us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us." The discourse was listened to with breathless attention, and, on the conclusion, the vast assembly quietly dispersed. STABBING.—AIice Simp,on, a young girl, who has fre quently appeared in the police court, was charged with stab bing a youth on Saturday night. It appeared that the defendant went into one of the cellars in Williamson square about half past twelve o'clock on Saturday night, and after having had supper, commenced quarrelling with a sailor. From words they got to blows, and in her rage she caught up a knife, and attempted to stab the sailor. The assistant, seeing what was going on, rushed upon the female for the purpose of taking away the knife, when he received a severe stab in the hand. The girl was immediately taken into custody. When before the magistrates she said she was so drunk that she did not know what she was after. The magistrate, who expressed his regret that in quarrels such weapons should be used, committed the prisoner to take her trial at the sessions. INDECENT ASSAULT ON A LITTLE GIRL BY A CLERGYMAN. At Worthing, on Saturday, the Rev. George John Free man, the rector at Bruntingthorp, in the diocese of Lincoln, and who is upwards of sixty years of age, wils placed before the magistrate, charged by Mr. Superintendent Norman, 31uek I with an indecent assault on a little girl, named Francis Mr. Superint endent Norm3i gave evidence of certain facta too gross for publication. He seized him by the collar, and the prisoner said, " I am a gentleman-4 hope you will let me go." The superintendent told him he must go before the magistrates. He said, " Could it not be settled otherwise ? He was a gentleman—it would ruin him—would not money do it ?" The superintendent told him nothing would do but going before the magistrates, and thither he took him. The little girl fully corroborated the officer's statement, and gave her evidence very clearly. The defen iant, in answer to the charge, said the position he then stood in was fraught with great danger to him, for in Hamps hire. very er he would loose a professional appointment by not being then was sorry, before God, for having behaved as he had in touching the child,which he was aware wasywrong,but it had been much overstated. The magistrates then retired, and, upon their return, the chair man, with manifest emotion, said ; It is much to be regretted that a clergyman should he placed in the disgraceful situa tion in which you stand. It is quite clear that you com mitted an indecent assault on this child, scarcely nine years old. It is fortunate that you did not effect your wicked purpose, or you might be standing at that bar charged with a much more serious offence. The magistrates consider that it is a most disgraceful act in you, and sentence you to be sent to the House of Correction, and kept to hard labour for three calendar months. The prisoner raised his hands, as if bewildered, and was removed to the calls, and subse quently conveyed to gaol. TIMES.LIVERPOOL TVEsDAY THE MURDER AT ERITH INQUEST ON THE BODY OF THE ALLEGED MURDERER. On Saturday, an inquest was held at the police station, Blackheath road, before Mr. Carttar, the coroner for the district, to enquire into the cause of death of Thomas Cartwright Worrell, who was taken into custody on a charge of murdering a man named Carter. and who was found dead in the cell of the station on Friday morning. Mr. Freeman, of Bucklersbury, attended on behalf of the relations of the murdered man, George Carter ; and Mr. Gilham, of Bartlett's buildings, attended to watch the case for the relations of Worrell. The father, mother, and wife of the deceased were in attendance, and were deeply affected during the time the enquiry lasted. Mr. Barry, surgeon, who had examined the bottles containing the poison, said each bottle contained a drachm, and a drachm would destroy life. He found a label that would fit one of the bottles marked " poison." It did not bear the name of the chemist who sold it. The label had been lost. Mr. Edward Dawning, a surgeon, made a post mortem examination of the body of the deceased. Externally the skin was slightly 'ivied, the nails blue, the hands clenched, and the jaw fixed. On opening the cheat and abdomen he found them quite healt!.y. When the stomach was taken out the odour of prussic acid was very perceptible. His opinion was that the deceased died from the effects of prussic acid. Mr. Mallalieu, the superinten dent of the R division of police, said he received the phials produced from the surgeon yesterday morn ing. There was no label with them. The Inspec tor of Greenwich police (Ur. Wilson) said he re ceived the charge of Worrell at half-past six on Thursday evening, from Sergeant Ebbs. He asked Worrell bow old he was, and he said twenty-six, and that he resided at Clayton- place, Kennington, and that he was a carpenter by trade, but that he had not worked at that trade lately. There wore found on him three sovereigns and other money, a gold watch, and several other articles. He was charged with the murder of George Carter, at Erith, and detained on that charge. Witness read the charge to him, and he replied, almost in a whisper, although he bad spoken in a firm voice previously—" Yes, I am told so ; but I am quite innocent of it." A letter, addressed to his father, protesting his innocence, was taken out of his pocket book. The prisoner was then taken out of the cell into which he had been placed about two minutes before, and had a special policeman to attend to him, to whom he gave strict instructions to watch the prisoner in an adjoining room, in which he directed him to be placed. Witness then went to Mr. Superintendent Mallalieu and told him that he had g ot the prisoner in the reserve room. Mr. Mallalieu said that that was against the commissioners' orders, and when witne s went back he had been removed to a cell. Witness had a long conversation with prisoner, who declared his innocence, and stated that he was not in a cab with Carter on Friday morning, as had been sworn, but was with him on Thursday, when they went together to the London Docks, for the purpose of securing a good vessel for C leer, who was going to Australia, and that that was the last time he saw him. Witness directed the policeman on duty to go to the prisoner every five minutes, but he did not think it desirable to put a man with him into the cell. At about twenty minutes before two he was called ap, and found the man dead. He (witness). when he read the letter, thought that the prisoner might have poison at home, but did not suspect that he had poison with him. The pan of the water closet was examined, and two bottles were found. There was a label with the word "Poison" on it. Constable Lyons, 28 R division, said that he searched the deceased a few minutes after twelve o'clock, assisted by Cook, 232, and in the presence of Sergeant Binge. He took his overcoat off, turned the cuffs over, and felt all parts. The body coat was taken cff, and the waistcoat, and he searched them. He examined his drawers and his under clothing, pulled off his boots and stockings. searched his hat, handkerchiefs, and found nothing whatever, and was certain that if the bottles had been there, he could not have pessed over them. He afterwards listened at the door of the cell, and fancied that he heard him snore. He called to him, but he did not answer. Upon entering the cell afterwards he found deceased lying on his back, and thought he was in a fit, and fetched the doctor. The cover of the watercloset was down. He saw deceased every three or four minutes, and upon nearly every occasion got into con. versation with him, but he gave ro information respecting the cause of his arrest, and appeared to be perfectly rational. Constable James Cook, 232, assisted at the search, and confirmed the evidence of the last witness. He saw the deceased every four or five minutes, sometimes alone, and sometimes in company with the other constable. By Mr. Gilham : The practice was to search prisoners only in the presence of the superior officers at the station. There being no other witnesses to examine, the coroner stated that it would be necessary to obtain more evidence to show the previous state of mind of the deceased. The inquest was accordingly adjourned until Wednesday next. The cabman who drove the two men about, and for whose appearance nrinted placards have been issued, has not yet been traced. Worrell, in his let ter to his father, found upon him when he was first searched at the Greenwich police station, stated that some money that he had got due to him from " Richardson and Co., of London," would be paid to his wife in the course of a few weeks. From this it is inferred that the arrangement for the payment of the money to his wife had been made by him after the murder of Carter, and probably subsequent to the period when he possessed him elf of the prussic acid with which he ended his career. This can, of course, be only matter of speculation until " Richardson and Co." are found ; and it is not unlikely that the parties so termed will give evidence before the coroner, as the folice are endeavouring to find them out. It is a fact worthy of notice, that the last conversation held by Worrell with his father, just before his arrest, and when he must have had about him the letter announcing to that father his determination to destroy himself, and also the means by which he succeeded in doing so, was, or so the father states, upon a matter of business, namely, the pro posed purchase of a piece of ground, upon which the elder Worrell was to build houses for the younger. Such a conversation at such a moment would seem strange in the highest degree, if it were not for the probability that the son entered upon it for the purpose of strengthening his father's conviction of his innocence when all should be over. SHOCKING CRUELTY TO A CHILD BY HER STEPMOTHER. At Southwark Police-court, on Saturday, Mary llliot, a middle-aced, respectable looking female, the wife of a journeyman hatter, residing in Alie-street, Bermondsey, was brought before Mr. Burcham, charged with cruelty and gross neglect towards Maria Elliot, her stepdaughter, aged twelve years. Sergeant Howland, 19 M, said, that he received information that a child was in a water .closet, in an empty house, No. 1,3, Alie-street, about six o'clock on the previous evening, and on being admitted, he found the child in a most deplorable and filthy condition. Ile took her to the workhouse, where her flesh was washed, and wounds were discovered on the arms and back, inflicted by a cane. The child was so filthy that they could not tell its colour until washed. Witness then went and informed the prisoner, who said the child had run away, and she acknowledged having beaten it with the cane produced. He then took her into cus tody. The girl, a fine-looking and apparently well-fed child, but clothed in filthy rags, was here led forward, and the bruises were exhibited to view. She was very intelligent, and perfectly aware of the nature of an oath. On being sworn, she said that she was a naughty girl at times, and stole bread from her grandfather, who lived in the same street. She stole some on Wednesday and Thursday, and was beat for it with the cane. She ran away on Thursday evening, and hid herself in the water-closet, where she remained until the constable came and took her away. She had food given her during that time by a neighbour. Her father very seldom beat her. There were five other children by her mother-in.law, and she had to remain at home all day to look after them, while her father and mother went out to work. She had to clean the house, and the other children were better kept than she was. She had, at times, taken money belonging to her grandfather,'when h-r mother beat her with a cane. Mr. Burcham asked her whether she was hungry at the time she took her grand_ father's money and bread ? She replied that she was not at times. She, however, hid the bread under the bed, and with the money she bought cakes and sweetstuff The police sergeant here informed his worship that he understood the prisoner bad taken her by the hair of the head and banged it against the wall. The child was questioned on this point, and she admitted such to be the fact, but it did not occur more than twice. That was because she stole the bread. On the part of the prisoner it was shown that the child had good clothes to put on, and could have washed herself after she had done the cleaning in the house. The neighbours said she was a very bad girl. After hearing further evidence, Mr. Burcham said what ever the child's conduct, there was no exduse for the step'mother's conduct. The child was intelligent, and had promised to behave honestly for the future, therefore he hoped she would not repeat such brutal conduct for the future. Her husband must enter into his recognisances for her good behaviour. SUICIDE BY HANGING IN BACUP LOCKUP.— On Friday last, an inquest W 33 held at the George and Dragon public house, Bacup, before Mr. Hargreaves, deputy coroner, on the body of George Broadley, aged 49 years. It appeared intemperate habits. the deceased had been a person of very habits. On Thursday last he was apprehended under a warrant on the charge of having obtained a gallon of b eer under false pretences, and committed for trial, He could not be removed to Freston that night, and had to remain in the cell until the following morning. About three o'clock, however, it was discovered that he had hanged himself. By some means he had succeeded in fastening the apron he was in the habit of wearing to the iron railing attached to the window of his cell, and in this manner he committed the rash act. He had previ( usly been in the House of Correc tion for felony, and whorl he came out he told his wife that he would rather die than go again. The jury returned a verdict of " Death by hanging, but in what state of mind the deceased was in, there was no evidence to show." IRON SHIPS Notwithstanding the iron trade of Great Britain is one of the greatest in the world, it is s t i ll ca p abl e o f more ex tended development. The p roduction of ironstone is i nez.. haustible ; flux is easy attainable, and we have fuel we e _ sible at an easy and moderate rate. We, by no means, wish to underrate the energy or capabilities of our iron. masters, or depreciate in any way, the monster works they have undertaken, or the successful manner in which they have carried them out; there is sill ample room for itn. provPment, and a wider range of enterprise before them. The introduction of iron, for the purpose of ship-build. ing, is o fa comparatively modern date ; and although we ca n point with pride to the many ship-bui'ding yards on the Thames, the Mersey, and the Clyde ; while we acknowled g e all that has hitherto been dote by engineering skill, and indomitable indu , try, combined wi th great perseverance, yet it is to be honed . that something further will yet b e done, in order that the prejudice that exists at present against iron ships may be removed. It would appear that complaints have been made against the defective construction of our iron vessels, and that they are considered more liable to-accidents than ships constructed of wood, and hence a feeling of insecurity engendered. It is true that several lamentable and disastrous occurrences have taken place in iron vessels but taking the proportion of these with those of wood, allowing for the greater number of the latter, according to all received accounts, they are not so frequent. It would appear that the Arabia, which has just arrived from the United States, had among her passengers several scientific gentlemen, who visit England purposely to obtain informati on regarding iron ship-building ; if this information should be correct—and we have no reason to doubt its authenticity—it would seem that our " go-ahead" cousins are alive to the fact of the great superiority of metal ships over those of timher. and the result of their enquiries may probably lead to their extended introduction on the lakes and rivers of Columbia. Mr. John Clare, of Liverpool, states, that the cause of the losses of several of the iron ships may be traced to ignorance; and sulgests that the manuf;cturers should call a meeting, then appoint a deputation to the Board of Trade, the ostensible object being, that a scale should be laid down only upon which iron ships will be allowed to be built. He is of opinion that where there is one ship constructed now, there will then be fifty; if properly built it would be an imp , ssibility that they should leak ; and, consequently, from their increased sr curity, would monopolise the greater portion of the carrying trade of the world. How iron ship building has progressed in the kingdom may be judged by the construction of the Leviathan by Messrs. Scott Russell and Co. It would, in our opinion, be difficult to lay down any definite rule on which these vessels should be constructed ; in every ship some defect would be found ; these, in due course, would be remedied. No govern ment regulations have so much efficacy as individual enterprise, aided by mechanical and practical science. There is no question but that these vessels could be built hero cheaper and better than in any country in the world, and that the make of them is rof so great as it might be. It is not our pro vince to dictate to any trade in what manner or branch they are to extend their operation., of this the manufacturers themselves are the best judges; it is, however, a subject of great importance—the development of any material branch of industry. In drawing attention to the sub j ect we have only fulfilled a simple duty, and we trust that thos e who are more di r ectly interested will pu rsue such p ract ical mea sures as they may deem most befitt in g for the adv ancement of this branch of our staple trade , so as to make it o ne of the great elements of our national wea lth.—Minin g Journal. DREADFIft DEATH OF TWO CHI LDREN IN L ONDON. — Two accidents terminated fatally on S unda y ; one to Mary Ann Davis, 4 years of age, who residf.. , d at Dnekhead ; an d th e other, to Itchert Gilmour, aged 8 years, Drummond street, Euston square. In the first case, the child Davis got on the fender, slipped, and pulled a kettle of boiling water over her. In the second case, the deceased was playing near the Are, and got his clothes ignited, when he was burnt to death, ROBBERY OF £5OO BY A LETTER CARRIER Yesterday, James Ingram, a letter carrier at the General Post Office, was brought before Mr. Anderson, at the Police Court, on a charge with having stolen two letters, containing £5OO, the property of Mr. John Nicholson, of Scotland road. he prosecution, anc Jued the prisoner. From the evidence given for the pro n, it appeared that on Friday morning the prisoner was , ieral Post Office sorting lettere, and that two letters, •4", John Nicholson, of Scotland.road, came into e letters contained eight notes of £5 0 ,nk post bill for £460. These letters were not delivered ; and on Saturday morning the prisoner came late to his duty at the post office. The inspector ques. tioned him as to why he was not at his duty in Proper time ; but nut getting a satisfactory reply, he thought it his duty to bring him before the postmaster. Nothing was known of t h e letters at the time. When the prisoner was befor e the postmaster, he asked leave to retire for a moment to the clo=et, which was granted. The inspector watched him, and whilst in the closet he saw the prisoner take his hands One of thes, each, and the apers from his pocket and nut them into his boot • 7 out of the closet the prisoner was searched, when the led to, and their contents, were found in his boot, ettera ally He was then given into custody. It further appeared that the letters had been sent from Manchester by Mr. Anderton, a clerk in the employment of Mr. Pilling, of that city, and directed to Mr. Nicholson, of Scotland-road, and these facts were fully proved in evidence. Mr. Bluck cross-examined the :witnesses, and then applied for a remand on the ground that lie was instructed to state that the prisoner would be prepared to give some information that would be useful. It was intimated that if the prisoner had any information to give he could com municate it hereafter. In the mean time depositions were ordered to be taken, and the prisoner sent for trial. CHARLES GAVAN DUFFY IN AUSTRALIA, There ara few public men, of eith3r ancient or modern times, whose career has been mirked with such a degree of singularity, chance and uphill work, as that of the late proprietor of the Dublin Nation, and the founder and leader of the Young Ireland party. Most of our readers are aware of the difficulties and trials to which he was subjected during the year of the Ballingarry riots, of the relentless spite with which the Irish Government of Lord _ _ Clarendon hunted him day and night, and how they failed in all their efforts to eff ct his conviction as a rebel and a traitor to his Queen and country The aubsevent career of Mr. Daffy finds him a senator in the Commons of Great Britain and Ireland. His career in that august assembly failed to effect any good for himself or the people whose cause he advocated and espoused. All his schemes for the amelioration of Ireland, particularly his tenant-right project, he was unable t) carry. So, feeling his political impotence at home, he betook himself to the auriferous regions of Australia, with the view of becoming in that distant part of the globe what he could never achieve in te mother country —a great man. At the time of his departure for Australia it was said that Mr. Duffy intended to devote his time and talents to his profession as a barrister, but they who' knew the firey political spirit which animated his besot; and his innate love of drinking the dangerous cup of popularity, predicted that he would not be long until he once more entered the exciting arena of political life. Recent events have clearly demonstrated that the prophecy was correct to the letter. For some time past every arrival brought us intelligence of Mr. Duffy's public movements, and of the exertions which he and his friends were making to secure his return as a member of the Legislative Assembly of the Colony of Victoria. At one time it was considered that he endangered his prospects by an injudicious speech which he delivered to the colonists, but this passed over, and his popularity as a public man again rose. According to the provisions of the new Constitution Bill, it is necessary for every member elected to the Legislative Assembly of Victoria to possess a parliamentary qualification, valued at .£2,000, in freehold property. This Air. Duffy had not ; consequently, that por tion of the colonists who admired his political principles and conduct, determined to remove the obstacle, by raising a subscription to purchase the requisite property qualification. Our advices, by the Lightnin g , inform us that the object was effected, and that, on the 20th of August, there was a grand demonstration in Melbourne, when the presentation took place. From the statement of the chairman, John O'Shanassy, Esq., M.L.C., the testimonial was the sponta neous offering of a large section of the community, both in Victoria, and throughout 66 districts of New South Wales, and in Van Dieman's Land, which afforded an ample proof of the estimation in which the character and past life of Mr. Duffy had been held. After addresses from the colonies of New South Wales and Victoria had been read, Mr. Duffy was banded the title deeds of a residence and grounds. Mr. Duffy then made a long and rather eloquent reply. After briefly thanking the generous donors for their splendid and substantial present, he remarked that great political liberty was in store for the colony of Victoria, if they carried on their legislature for its people, copying whatever was good in the governments of other countries, and rejecting that which was bad or deleterious. Alluding to the " Old Country," he hoped they would not revive its parlia mentary system steeped in corruption, its government ruled by one favoured class, and its bigotry, which teaches men to hate their neighbours. As to America, they mi:h imitate the energy and decision which exhibited themselves, as much in the arts of locomotion and commercial enter prise as in the battle-field, and their love of simplicity, which had given them codefial laws and cheap and effective govern ment, without adopting the servile fear of a majority, and the indifference to spiritual aims, which seemed to him the dry rot of their system. He could not see what any man, high or low, wise or foolish, could gain, in the long run, by setting Protestant against Catholic, and Catholic against Protestant ; for, after a generation of bad blood and wasted energies, the struggle would end, leaving every one who outlived it in a worse position than if it had never taken place. After justifying the pretensions of the Roman Catholic party to a fair representation in the Colo nial legislation, he declared that since he had landed in the colony he had constantly urged that it was their interest and duty to fuse into a common Australian nationality. la o men seemed better disposed to do so than the men of his own race and creed ; but they were not members of the Peace Society, and if they were misrepresented. or assailed without cause, they would naturally stand or. the defensive. If they were threatened with political extinction, they were entitled and bound to answer, and all fair men, of whatever creed, would applaud them for answering. To make helots of them was what they could not do, and should not do. The country belonged to the Catholic as well as the Protestant ; and, to the extent of their political fitness, they had as good a right to political power and authority as any Protestant. It had been insinuated that Catholics ought to be deprived of political power, because political power and religious liberty were denied in Catholic countries. That was intel ligible ground to take, but it meant repealing the Emanci pation Act, and, for his part, he would rather sell his children as slaves than allow them to live is a country where arch a doctrine prevailed. But is it denied in Catholic countries, asked Mr. Deffy a It is as true as that witches ride on broomsticks, that one Englishman can beat five Frenchmen, or any hundred other fables of ignorance or prejudice. Pitt and Fox, Plunkett and Peel, answered it long ago. I have a tolerable familiarity with the present state of Europe, and I maintain that since the answers of these statesmen Catholic countries have continued to set the noblest example of religious liberty. Take Belgium, for example, the best governed country on the continent ; there are more Protestants in Collingwood than in the entire kingdom, yet that Catholic people, five and twenty years ago, selected a Protestant as their King, and endowed the clergy of the Protestant Church in the same manner as their own. (Hear, hear.) Take Hungary, it is a Catholic country, yet the Hungarians placed Kossuth, a Protestant, in the highest office of State, and he declares the Catholic bishops were his warmest supporters. Take France, a quarter of a century ago the French set an example of religious equality to the world. Take Poland : that Catholic country was the first to emancipate the Jews, an example which England has not followed to this very hour. There are Catholic countries which refuse civil and religious liberty; but why ? Because they are governed by the old despotic system which prevailed at some time or other in every State in Europe. Is the fact of their being Catholics to account for it ? America is Protestant, and she deals in negro slaves; but is her Protestantism to be held answerable for that ? She has twice decimated and plundered the Mormons for their religious opinions. Does it follow that toleration is not permitted in Protestant countries ? There are Catholic countries undoubtedly which refuse civil and religious liberty, but are there not Protestant countries which refuse them also ? A Catholic is as ill-treated in Sweden as a Protestant is in Naples ; in Prussia a Catholic is made as uncomfortable as a Protestant is in Austria. The Swiss Protestants have shown themselves as great tyrants as the Spanish Catholics. Even in this new world we have the spirit, mitigated by the nineteenth century. The Church of England established a settlement at Canterbury in New Zealand, and one of the fundamental rules forbad any person to attain political office who did not take the sacrament of that church. The Church of Scotland established a settlement at Otago, in New Zealand, and by its local laws no school is permitted to share the public grant for education which does not teach the cate chism of the church. Look at the example England her self has sent down to this generation. Thirty years ago no Protestant Dissenter could sit in Parliament ; it is but two years since he was admitted to the Universities (I had myself the pleasure of voting for the measure) ; he has still to pay church-rates for the support of the establishment ; and it is not a very long time since carting Quakers, and burning the houses of Unitarians have ceased to be a popular pastime. These facts might teach us that there has been bigotry and cruelty wherever uncontrolled power existed, no matter to what. creed it belonged. I decline to answer for the House of Bourbon or the House of Hapsburg; but I answer for the Catholics of Ireland, and I affirm they never denied civil and religious liberty. (Cheers.) When you talk to an Irish Catholic of his creed being the symbol of persecution, and Protestantism the symbol of liberty, he may well think you mad. He, or his ancestor's, never per secuted any one for religion's sake. (Cheers). In the reign of Queen Mary, English Protestants fled to Dublin, and were sheltered in that Catholic city. (Cheers.) In the reign of Queen Victoria, a large number of Catholic con stituencies elect Protestants as their chosen representatives. But every generation for' three hundred years, Irish Catholics have been robbed and oppressed, because they were Catholics ; down to this hour when they are compelled to support the richest church in the world, for a handful of the population. It is realising the fable of the wolf and the lamb, to raise a cry of intolerance against them who have not inflicted, but endured the pains of ascendancy. MARRIAGE.
