Oa the 4th of Febrauy, 1864, 11r.Wmisetaa amiss lima
remsammee to Mr. Liddell, and as the 11th r die same
as he somplained to the bishop. The bishWe reply,

with* bee already been published, was enured apes the

The answer an behalf of Mr. Liddell pleaded—lnt, that
the weaned altar was a " sense anima et dense within I
the messing of the 88th canon ; that the eandlea on the
altar gave a mere ecavenient light than was afforded by
the gas standards is the ehonel; that they were Nay
kept burning whoa the net of the church was lighted up,
and that they were conformable to the laws and mans of
the churn ; that the church was (requested by crowded
and attentive 'aggregations resident within the district, and
that their religious (goings would be deeply wounded by
the removal or alteration of the Wags complained of by the
party promoting the salt.
In • responsive allegation on behalf of Mr. Westerns it
wee alleged that the chards inatained 927 sittings, of whisk
62 were suet, and 277 occupied by non.parishionre. Of the
parishioners who occupied the remaining 698, it will farther
alleged that many were dissatisfied with the artieke ems-
*eked of.
The ease of St. Bernthal differed only from that of fit..
Paul's in that the altar sod credence ia the latter were of
stem. Mr. Beal also prayed that the brass genie( the
" reed lama" and the cross above it might be oleo re•
moved, and that Mr. Liddell be monished to have pat up
the Ten Commandments at the out end of the chancel, 'sec-
ured by the aeons.
Dr. Ba)ford, la opening the ems ea behalf of Wt. s•
tenon and Mr. Beal, deprecated the introduction of myth'sg

Placing every faith in the accuracy of her repro.
sentations, fir. Button lent her 10s., and subsequently
was induced to lend her two other sums of
the elms monist. He had some conversation
with her about 1,0001. being advanced by her to his
brother in law, and she talked very largely about her true.
tees, solicitor, deeds, settlemeate,fnaded property, and so on,
but at last Mr. Button found out that he was duped, and
that the person from whom his brother-ice-law was to re-
ceive a loan of 1,0001. wes but a wily victimiser, and he
therefore caused her to be apprehended. When taken by
the pollee she was living in the name of Huntley, and she
informed the policeman that she was intimate with Captain
Hey, *le of the Commiselenen of Police, who bad not long
lett bet lodging, axe would soon return. Nothing daunted
by this inertias, the policeman carried her off to the sta-
tion, where he was sorely Fueled to tell by what means
she had got rid, during the journey from her lodgings', of
some papers with which she armed herself when the accu-
sation was made against her' and which she said would
exonerate and clear her from the charge; but tree it was
that, unknown to him, she had contrived to make away with
them. _

'l he prisoner was called upon, according to Doti°, served

she had shown to Mr. Love ; but neither that nor anything

coming.

Mr. Sleigh said there was a third chirp against her, and
there were in court at the very least 20 tradesmen whom
she bad victimised in the same way. When one part of
London got too hot for her, she moved off to another, and
there was reason to believe that she was tried at the Old
Bailey about two years ego for fraud.
Mr. M. trolls banded up some paper, which the prisoner
had provided him with, and saked the wart to cause inquiry
