THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

There is nothing to record of yesterday's Exhi-
bition beyond the fact that the attendance was
good, and included a vast number of country visi-
t toes. Mr. Deities' grand candelabrum is now fully
exposed, and excites a good deal of curiosity and
admiration, partly, perhaps, because it is in reality
the latest novelty at the Exhibition.

PROBRCUTION Or "ESBAYS AND REVIEWS."—
This subject will be bomb' once more before Dr. Lashing.
too , the Dean of the Court of Arches, ow Monday. the 3rd
of November, unless, indeed, theme should come before the
Judicial Committee of Privy Council, on technical grounds,
arising out of the learned judge's decision on the admissi-
bility of the article', on the 25th June last. The Bishop of
Salisbury intends prosecuting the case against the Rev. Dr.
Rowland Williams, Vitae of Broad Chalke, and has
amended the articles filed, in accordance with the decide':
of the court, so that probably Dr. Lushiegtoo will be able
to pronounce judgment on the merits of the case in the
forthcoming term. The proceedings On taken coder the
general ecclesiastical law, and sot under the statute of
Elizabeth, sod the specific charges which Dr. Williams has
to meet are set forth in the revised article which the
Bishop of Salisbury has framed. The Bishop has reformed
the article io which Dr. Williams is alleged to have said
that the Bible is simply an expression of devout reams,
and that the sacred writers were merely passionless
machines, as being a violation of the 6th and 7th of the 39
Articles of Religion. The Bishop has also reformed the
12th article filed against Dr. Williams, in which he is alleged
to deny the views held by the Church of England on the
propitiation and satisfaction made by Christ for the sins or
the world. Some other articles have been reformed, but the
articles which am now omitted, and which will not be
argued, contain the charges against Dr. Williams of denying
the Messianic character of Christ, the authenticity of the
Book of Daniel, the Epistle to the Hebrew., and the
Petrie. Epistles, the divinely ordained nature of water and
baptism as a means of grace, the doctrine of the resurrec-
tion and the incarnation. That article is also omitted
which declares that the tendency, object, and design of the
whole essay is to inculcate a disbelief of the divine
impin-
tion and orthodoxy of the Holy Scriptures. lo the course
of the next term the case of the Rey. James Fendall, M.A.,
Rector of Marlton and Proctor in the Lower House of Con-
vocation for the clergy of the diocese of Ely ; against the
Rev. Henry Bristowe Willem, RD., Vicar of Crest Staugh-
too, Huntiogdooshire, the author of the article on the
National Church in " Essays and Reviews," will be also
proceeded with, and judgment probably delivered.
ALDERMAN SALOMON(' AND HIS CONSTITUENTS.—
last night a crowded public meeting of electors was held at
the Literary Inatitutioo, Royal-hill, Greenwich, to hear an
address from Alderman Salotuona, one of the members for
that borough. The chair was occupied by Dr. Prise Purvis,
of Blackheath. Alderman Salomon& who was well received,
proceeded to review at some length the measures which bad
come before parliament during the last session. With re-
gard to the American question, he did not think this was the
time when direct interference by this country would be
attended with advantage. Although in favoor of non-in-
tervention, however, he did not believe that parliament
would hereefter be disposed to pass over this American
quarrel so lightly as it bad done in the last session. He
hoped that some plan might be adopted, by means of which
the American people might be brought to their senses, and
thought that if this country could combine with Franca,
and the other powers, a mediation could be brought
about which would terminate this contest. He rejoiced in
the efforts made, not only in this country, but in our colo-
nies, to niftiest* the distress in our cotton manufacturing
districts. On the motion of Mr. D. Bass, seconded by Mr.
C. Harding. • vote of confidence in the hon. and worthy al-
derrnsiu was unanimously adopted,

INVOMR TAX IN INDIA—At a meeting of the
Manchester Chamber of Commerce yesterday a letter was
read from Messrs. Barber Brothers enclosing an extract
from a letter from Madras, from which it appeared that the
government had called upon all the merchants there to fur-
Dish a list of theirconstituents, as it was proposed to charge the
profit oil all oonsignmenta with income tax. A special meeting
of the chamber at Madras bad been held to consider this
subject, and all present unanimously protested against such
• proceeding, and it was considered by the mercantile com-
munity that the iooonte tax act dirt notjustify such &demand.
It was also stated that • similar action had been taken by
the government at Calcutta. The matter was considered
one of the deepest importance, and was referred to • sub-
committee with • view to immediate motion.
