CHURCH RATES.

Lord Sr. LEONARDS called attention to a petition
presented from Surbiton on the •?9th of June last, on
the subject of church-rates. The petitioners com-
plained that the congregations of district churches
should be obliged to pay the rate levied for the
maintenance of the mother church, which they never
attended. The noble lord suggested that an amend-
ment bill should be introduced, relieving congrega-
tions so situated from the doable liability. In the
course of a short discussion which ensued, Lord
PORTMAN announced that he intended to bring for-
ward a bill for the settlement of the church-rate
question before the close of the present cession.

which was brought to a close yesterday. Last night they
closed at 95} to the highest price in the week having
been 951 to . This morning the market opened with a
very good feeling, though there was not much activity ;
and the closing price was to i. Some amount of
stock in the New Three.and-a.llalf per Cents. have been
bought on public account during the week. A little bas
also been purchased in Reduced.
In the Foreign Market the principal changes have been
in Brazilian four.and-a-half-per.eent. Scrip and in Peruvian
Stocks.

R dimly Shares have recovered, as stated above, to the
extent of between one and two per cent., and the tone to-
day was favourable, though the highest quotations were
not quite maintained.
Nothing of importance has occurred in Banking, Mining,
or Miscellaneous Shares. The stock of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company, however, has been Injuriously affected
by the failure in laying the cable, which is reported else-
where. The 1,0001. shares were nominally at 2001. on
Monde', ; but they have since recovered to 4001. The
magnitude of the shares, however, prevents any dealings
in them. We know of only one bonii•fide transfer during
the last seven or eight days.

One or two joint-stock undertakings with limited
liability have been announced during the week.
The Continental Exchanges have not materially altered
in the present week.
A dividend of 2a• per share free of income tax has been
declared by the Peel River Land and Mining Company.
The dividend of the Colonial Bank for the half•year is
three per cent., with a balance of 13,7581. carried to the
reserved fund.

The Union Bank of Australia have agreed with the
Treasury for the loan of 500,0001., guaranteed by the Im-
perial Government for the service of New Zealand; and a
considerable portion of the amount is now in course of
transmission to the colony. The interest is at the rate of
font. per cent., payable at the Bank of England.
The Country Trade Reports continue to be of a favour-
able character, though there are here and there c onplaints
of the difficulty of effecting sales, owing to the high
prices of raw materials. This particularly applies to
cotton, flax, and some other articles. But manufacturing
industry has not yet replenished stocks, and employment
consequently is good. There has been a change in the
weather. To a very high temperature has succeeded one
rather low, and in some districts a good deal of rain has
fallen. Corn has consequently advanced, but there is every
proapeet of a good harvest, nevertheless.

THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply to
Mr. V. Smith, said it was " the wish and intention "
of the Government to introduce a bill for the govern-
ment of India before Easter. Probably on Monday
he would be able to inform the right hon. gentleman
on what day he would bring it forward.

BRIBERY AT

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply to
Mr. H. Berkeley, said it was the opinion of the Go-
vernment that the best course was to introduce a
new bill upon the subject, founded upon the experi-
ence of the last general election, and that when it
was introduced the Government should propose to
refer it to a select committee.

GODREVY LIGHTHOUSE.

Mr. A. SMITH moved fora committee to
inquire into the circumstances connected with the
erection of the Godrevy Lighthouse, and to report
their opinion as to the proper position for the same,
prefacing his motion with copious details upon the
subject.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Psur.L.
Mr. HENLEY, after reviewing very fully all the cir-
cumstances connected with the lighthouse, said that,
in his; opinion, no practical good could r2sult from
an inquiry before a committee, and, if the motion was
pressed, he should oppose it.
Mr. WYLD and Mr. BENTINCY supported the
motion, which was opposed by Mr. CARDWELL, Mr.
LINDSAY, and Mr. LOWE, and ultimately negatived.

orvo4 in Greek, like glauctia in Latin, has no
precise or rigid signification. It means gene-
rally anything very dark. Homer calls wine
"black"; and this is an epithet that might very
well be applied to ivy. He also applies it to the
deep red of oxen ; and hence also it comes to
mean the dark purple of the Mediterranean. We
do not believe it ever means " green," for it
also may be applied to ivy simply as being
sacred to Bacchus, the god of wine. Again,
nothing can be in worse taste than the attempt
to sneer at the beautiful expression of ./Eschy-
las. If smiles are compared to ripples, why
should not ripples be compared to smiles ?
But if any reader can look upon the dancing
sparkling waves on a bright sunny day, and
not appreciate the force of the Greek poet's
metaphor, on his belly let him go, and enjoy
the bloodless life of an aplysia or a pleuro-
branchus at once.

DIPLOMATIC GOSSIP.

The Paris correspondent of the Times (second
edition) repeats the story of the immediate return to
France of M. de Persigny, who, his friends say,
intends "resigning polities for the present, and
retiring to the country." This correspondent
affirms, on the authority of the Paris salons, that
the resignation of his post by M. de Persigny is
owing chiefly to his not having been exactly en
accord with Count Walewski on the Conspiracy Bill
question:

In accounting for his resignation I only repeat what is
said here. If we are to believe these persons, it would
appear that the draught of a note in reply to Lord Mal.
mesbury was sent here which would have, in the opinion
of the writer, conciliated the explanations due to a
friendly nation with the maintenance of the dignity of
France. It is to be presumed that the draught was not
accepted, as the only answer returoel was M. Walewski's
note, with the order to present it forthwith to Lord Mal-
mesbury. What M. de Persigny said of the matter I
know not, but be probably considered that the note in
question did not fulfil the object he aimed at, and that he
could not continue to represent in London • policy which
perhaps appeared to him at the same time as too violent
and too weak. It is said that he merely complied with
the letter of his instructions, and handed, without blame
or praise, or comment of any sort, M. Walewski's note to
the English Foreign Secretary; and then, it is added,
wrote to Paris tendering his resignation, and requested
that his successor should be named as soon as possible.
A letter from Vienna, March 16th, also adds the
following bit of gossip about Sir Hamilton Sey-
mour :

On Sunday evening the British Minister at this Court
disagreeably surprised such of his colleagues as were as-
sembled in the apartments of the Minister for Foreign
Affairs by informing them that he waa about to quit his
post. Some months ago Sir Hamilton informed the Earl
of Clarendon that he intended to retire from public
life in the spring of the year 1858, and when the present
Ministry came into office be repeated to the Ear: of
Malmesbory what he had said to his predecessor. It
was settled between Lord Clarendon and Sir Hamilton
that the latter should be at liberty to leave Vienna on the
10th of April, and on that day he will probably turn his
back for ever on a city in which he has made many friends
and few enemies.

His Excellency Baron Brunnow arrived at Dover
at an early hour this morning.

A NEW ArrEcrr will be made, probably in June,
to submerge the electric cable between Ireland and
America. The length of the cable required to supply
the place of what was lost last year has been manu-
factured, and was to be landed at Plymouth on Mon.
day, and joined on to the old cable, making it 2,850
miles long. To guard against accidents this will be
further lengthened by 300 miles. New machinery
for " paying out " the line has also been mulatto
tared. At present only five words per minute can be
transmitted through the whole length of cable ; but
it is hoped that eight words per minute may be at-
aaiad.

THE OVERLAND MAIL

The following is the general summary of the
Bombay Gazette :

The fortnight just elapsed has been marked by
a few important incidents. The commander-in-

chief, who bad remained at Futtyghur up to the
31st of !January, suddenly broke up his camp on
the Ist of February, and leaving Walpole's brigade
to watch the Rohilcund rebels from the right bank
of the Ramgungah, proceeded rapidly to Cawnpore,
where be arrived in advance of the army on the
4th. On that day Walpole recrossed the Ganges
into the Doab, removed the bridge of boats to
Futtyghnr, and marched to join Sir Cohn. Troops
as they arrived from the north and south were
rapidly thrown across the Ganges at Cawnpore,
two bridges having been constructed for that pur-
pose. The road to Alumbagh is described as
encumbered with troops and waggons. Oa the Bth,
Sir Colin ran down to Allababad to meet Lord
Canning, who bad just come up from Benares.
After a short interview Sir Cohn returned to Cawn-
pore. But up to the 13th he had not crossed into
Oude, the siege train which left Agra on the 22nd of
January not having up to that date made its ap-
pearance at Cawnpore. Sir James Outram had not
had any new engagement with the rebels. They are
known to have strengthened Lucknow very much
not only with earth but with stone works. Sir
Colin was enabled to leave Futtygh ur safe, with
threo regiments holding it, and keeping open the
communication with Agra, whilst Brigadier Cham-
berlain advanced from Lahore with several Punjaub
regiments echelonned on the road down the Doab.
Jung Bahadoor's force would before this time have
attacked Fyzabad, in front of which his army is en-
camped, but that he was short of ammunition. He
was to be supplied from Benares, and his resumption
of active operations would be the signal for a cor-
responding movement by Brigadier Franks from the
direction of Jaunpore.
,The other corps in India were also making pro-
gress in the great movement from west to east which
must end in sweeping the rebels to the Jamas.

THE OATHS BILL.

THE House of Commons is to witness, on
Monday, if the other business does not hinder
it, a sort of triangular duel on the Oaths Bill.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL, on the first part, is the
promoter. Opponents, on the second part,
sundry Roman Catholic members, who dislike
the new oath therein propounded for the
Pope's humble servants. Opponents, on the
third part, Mr. NEWDEGATE, and sundry others,
who dislike the special exemption granted to
the Jew. Between all three, the House is
likely to be puzzled; and then comes in a
fourth party—Mr. DUNCOMBE and some more,
swearing that the whole affair is a sham ; that
Lord JOHN is only acting the leading part in
a farce; and that when the various parts
have been played out, the House will find that
it has been merely trifled with.
Four, do we say? Positively, here comes a
fifth party, with a view of the matter differing
from all the other four. A pamphlet has been
sent to us, written by a Mr. DAVID ANDERSON,
who declares himself a Jew, and who proudly
disdains the honour which is sought by Baron
ROTHSCHILD. He thus writes :

Believe me, it is a mistaken notion to imagine a Jew is
exalted by a seat in the British Parliament ; let Lim take
any office he pleases in the executive government, he is but
administering laws already made, but so soon as he forgets
the true destiny of Judaism, which, in itself, is interna-
tionality, and amalgamates himself with that people from
whom, by the laws of his faith, he is bound to hold himself
aloof, he meets but the merited contempt of all right-
minded Israelites, and the cold toleration of those who deny
the truth of his religion.
As Jeas, conscious of our own position and destiny,
what else ought we to require at the hands of those who
are not of our people, nor of our faith, whose gods are not
our gods, and with whose hopes of eternal salvation our
sympathies must ever remain wide asunder? If we have a
wish to settle amongst them, forgetting the faith of our
fathers, why do our prayers continually ascend to God for
the restoration of our country? These prayers are not, as
it were, shapeless, welling up unbidden from the bosoms of
a few, the more patriotic of our nation, but they are one
of the strongest essences of our belief, engrafted into, and
an actual part of, our faith, the great centre around which
revolves our thoughts, feelings, and aspirations; it is not a
question to be lightly thought or spoken, but one to which
the thinking part of the community will, I am sure, give
the gravest consideration.
Mr. ANDERSON tells us :

The following is translated from the Hebrew service for
the two first nights of Passover. It admirably illustrates
the point in question, as well as the proverbial hospitality
of the Jews one to nnother :—" Lo ! this is the bread of
affliction which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt, let
all those who are hungry enter and eat thereof, and all who
are necessitous come and celebrate the Passover. At
present we celebrate it here, next year we hope to celebrate
it in the land of Israel. This year we are servants here,
but next year we hope to be freemen in the land of Israel."

PIEDMONT.

The director and the responsible editor of the
Pensiero, the Radical journal of Oneglia, in Sardinia,
have been condemned to fifteen days' imprisonment,
and 200 f. fine, for an article offensive to the Emperor
of the French.

A Ministerial crisis, in consegnence of the rejec-
tion of the Conspiracy Bill, is probable.

DENMARK AND HOLSTEIN.

According to the Gazette de la Croix, the Danish
Ministry is desirous to submit to the States of Hol-
stein certain proposals on the position of Holstein,
in relation to the monarchy in general, and after-
wants to discuss the question with commissioners
from the Diet, Hanover being excluded.

WESTERN PROVINCES OF TURKEY.

The disturbances in the Herzegovina are extend.
lug, and becoming very serious. Austria is concen-
trating a powerful corps of 25,000 men on her fron-
tiers, and 4,000 Turkish troops left Constantinople
on the 9th for the scene of disturbance. Le Nord
of the 19th publishes a powerful article protesting
against any interference by Austria between Turkey
and her revolted provinces.

Irtlanb.

THE LORD LIEUTEN4NT has resolved on instituting
an inquiry into the unfortunate transaction which
occurred on Friday last on the occasion of his entry
into Dublin. His Excellency has charged the law
officers of the Crown with the special duty of con-
ducting the investigation in the most efficient and
impartial manner. Upwards of thirty students are
said to have been more or less injured by the police.
Identifications of assailants on both sides have been
made.

THE Two Assassms of the ill-fated Mr. John
Ellis, who was cruelly murdered near Templemore
on his return from Dublin in the month of October
last, have been caught and convicted. On Monday
morning William Cormack, who was tried on
Saturday by a jury—one of whom falling sick neces-
sitated the swearing of a new jury—and Daniel
Cormack, his brother, were, after a lengthened
trial, found guilty, but recommended to mercy, with-

. _ .. ..
out any cause wbatever being assigned for the recom-
mendation. Mr. Justice Keogh, in an impressive
address, sentenced the prisoners to be executed oh
the 11th of May.

LORD EGLINTOUN, when presented with an address
from the Corporation of Dublin on Monday at the
Castle, referred in his reply to the question of the
abolition of the Viceroyalty : _ _

With regard to the continuance of the office which I
have now for the second time the honour to held, I have
never varied my opinion, formed long before I had any
personal interest in the matter, and I have never hesi-
tated to express it. I believe its abolition would be a
great and permanent injury, not only to this city, but to
the country in general, and I do not think that any satis-
factory executive government could be instituted in its
place. I am happy to be able to announce to you that
these views are also entertained by my colleagues in Eng-
land. You do me no more than justice (said his lordship,
in conclusion) in believing that the important trust
which is again committed to me will be honestly and con-
scientiously fulfilled, and I can assure you in all sincerity
that I shall ever use the powers that my position confers
on me, io so far as I can, in soothing religions rancour,
in calming political strife, and in promoting the material
interests of the country.

HOUSE OF COMMONS-WEDNESDAY.

Lord J. RUSSELL, in moving that the house resolve
itself into a committee upon the Oaths Bill, stated
that it was his intention in the committee to move
the omission of words in the seventh clause which
seemed to confirm the oath to be taken by Roman
Catholic members, and, on the report, to propose a
change in the preamble of the bill, in order to make
its object clearer.
Mr. NEWDEOATE approved the course taken by
Lord John. _ _ _ _ _ _

Mr. T. DUNCOMIIE asked whether Lord John
could give an assurance, if the bill passed, it would
meet with a better reception in another place than
its predecessors on the same subject, and, if not,
whether he adhered to his avowed intention to bring
forward a resolution giving to Baron Rothschild his
seat.

The rules of the house preventing Lord J. Russell
from replying to these questions, after some conver-
sation regarding a decision of the Petitions Committee
touching a petition against the bill,
Mr. Du LWYN moved that the debate be adjourned ;

PROTESTANT WORSHIP.

M. Couillard, a member of the Protestant Consis-
tory of Lille, has published, in the Debats, a letter
on the recent interference of the municipal autho-
rities with the Protestant service of the canton 3 of
Avcsues. In the course of his remarks, M. Couillard
says :

All that we know is, that on the 11th July a proce.s
verbal was drawn up against the minister and the prin.
cipal members of his church, slid transmitted to the Pro-
cureur Imperial, whose silence duringforty days is certainly
not a proof that it was any crime to pray to God according
to recognized forms ; that on the 22nd August the Corn-
missai v of Police signified to the assembled church, and to
the officiating minister, a decree of the Prefect quashing
the municipal authorization ; that the service was inter-
rupted by the gendarmerie, and by the arrest of the minister
in the exercise of his functions and of three of his parish•
ioners; that the minister and his parishioners were in open
day, and in the midst of an astonished population, con-
veyed to prison by the gendarmes, and from whence they
were on the '.l3th discharged, in spite of themselves, as
they had entered. It is true they refused to leave the
prison on the evening of the 22nd. They wished, not, as
has been stated, to make a scene, but to date from their
prison a complaint to the Procureur-General and to the
Minister of Justice for the violence exercised against a
church and its minister. What they wished• and what
they still desire, is that the law should be clearly set forth
by the organ of the judicial power RS to the right of the
Reformed Church in France to distribute to their fol-
lowers Cie spiritual bread and the pastoral care of which
they stand in need. A religious worship established by a
conaistory, with the previous authorization of the municipal
council, has therefore been closed. A minister officiating
in his place of worship has been imprisoned with some
members of his church, among whom was a military sub-
intendant, and the Protestants of the seven cantons of
Avesnes are at the present moment deprived of the exercise
of their religion recognized by the State. This is an exact
account of what took place, and we need not add that it is
a serious affair. We wish neither to exaggerate nor to
raise an outcry about it; we wish to give the circumstances
their real character

THE BIRMINGHAM MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
Tuts musical reunion was brought to a close yester-
day week, and whether we regard the festival as an
encouragement offered to art, or as an agent in a
laudable work of charity, it was on the whole as sec.
cesstul as could have been desired.

The third grand miscellaneous concert followed
on Thursday evening the oratorio of The Messiah, to
which our notice in last week's impression extended.
Of the heterogeneous and lengthy selection of music
which constituted the programme of the first part,
"The Dream," a serenata, composed by Mr. Costa
for the occasion of the marriage of the Princess
Royal, most awakened the sympathies of the au-
thence. Nor will this occasion surprise, for the aim
of the composer was evidently simplicity and popu-
larity. The serenata was well and carefully per-
formed ; but the gem of the evening was the solo,
" 0 ! the joy of truly loving," sung with exquisite
taste by Mr. Sims Reeves, and universally encored.
In the second part of the concert Mlle. Victoire Balfe
made a most successful hit, in "The last Rose of
Summer," which is truly regarded as one of the best
specimens of our ballad literature.
Friday morning ushered in Mr. Henry Leslie's new
oratorio Judith. As in Immanuel, this young com-
poser has, in his most recent work, closely followed
Mendelssohn, and his very adherence to the school of
this grehtest of modern masters is in itself no mean
recommendation, and argues no small amount of
talent. The execution of this cantata, which was
directed by Mr. Leslie himself, was in all respects
effective. Mine. Castellan, Mme. Viardot
Mr. Sims Reeves, and Mr. Montem Smith put forth
their best energies to insure success, while the band
and chorus were painstaking to a Clegree. Despite
conventional restrictions, the audience testified their
admiration by bursts of applause, and "God be
merciful to us," the tenor solo and chorus which
concludes the first part of the oratorio, was retie-
mended by the President. After Judith the National
Anthem was performed, Mme. Clara Novello singing
the two first verses as solos, and the priacipl
singers the last verse as a quartet.
A grand dress ball in the Town-hall the same
evening terminated the festival. Weippart's excellent
quadrille band occupied the orchestra. The com-
pany consisted of three hundred, anti amongst thosiei
present were the following :—The Earl of Dartmouth
and party, Sir Francis and Lady Scott and parlY,
Lady Chelmsford and Hon. Miss Thesiger, Lady
Bateman, the Hen. Miss Banbury, the Right lion.

RELIGIOL7S TOLERATION.

A letter from Erzeroum of the 17th ult., in the
Presse d'Orient, states that a Latin church which had
been erected in that place, conformable to an authori-
zation of the Sultan, was inaugurated on the 15th, on
the occasion of the fete day of the Emperor Napoleon,
All the consular body, in full uniform, and all the
functionaries of the place, were present at the cere-
mony. At the moment the "Te Deum " was being
sung the guns of the fortress saluted the French tlsg
with twenty-one guns. A number of French tourists
who happened to be at Erzeroum, and all the French
residents, were present.

The Salt Lake City correspondent of the New York
Herald, writing on the 2!th July, gives the following
details of the then existing state of affairs in the
Mormon territory :
Brigham Young still remains in his fortified habitation,
surrounded by an armed guard. He is never seen upon
the streets. Brigham Young, jun., has been driving around
the town this week drunk; he drove up in front of the
houses of several of the saints, and asked the women to go
out riding with him, but they refused to accompany the
sun and probable successor of the prophet. lam told,
sub rosa, by some of the Mormons of high standing, who
are in the council of Brigham, that the prophet has a new
Bible ready for the printer. Existing circumstances pre-
vent its immediate publication. This Bible makes a god
out of Brigham, and constitutes polygamy as the 'unmoor&
bouurn of all religion. lam also informed by large num-
bers of persons that Brigham has heretofore been frequently
called God in the church. Proselyting is advancing rapidly.
When the apostates get their members better marshalled
and gain a little confidence, they intend, as a measure for
pr3selyting others, to form themselves into an original
Mormon church, pro Joe Smith, but anti-Brigham, anti-
polygamic, anti-treasonable, anti-political ; then, in time,
Lill back on to the Bible. Something may yet grow out of
this design.
