THE ACAPEMONE.—A house of business in Bristol,
having recently seat some goods to " the Abode of Love,"
had the bill returned to be made out afresh, according to
the following note:—" The Agapemone, near Bridgwater,
June, 1851.—Messrs. W— and Co.—The enclosed bill is
returned to be made out with the proper address—namely,
My Lord the Agapcmone, &c."
CARDINAL WISEMAN has been challenged to a
public discussion by M.:Pemux, protestant pastor at Roche-
fort, France, who, writing from the rooms of the Foreign
Conference and Evangelisation Committee for 18.51, engages
to maintain that the Church of Rome has neither unity nor
authority; that she is the inveterate enemy of Christ
and his word; that the Bible is the penal code of tho
Roman, and the charter of the Reformed Church; and that
the Church of Rome is the mother of infidelity and super-
stition. The cardinal addressed the following reply to his
rev. challenger : "36, Golden-square, June 16, 18.51. Sir,—l
beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 12th
inst., which reached me in the country, and in, which you
challenge me to a public discussion with you on certain points
of controversy which you enumerate. In return, I cannot hut
express my surprise that you should have selected fur such
a challenge a bishop in a country in which you do not claim
any religious charge, and whose very language differs from
yours, while there are plenty of catholic ecclesiastics nearer
your home, and of your own country, to whom similar ap-
plication might more naturally be made, if edification, as I
would fain hope, and not mere effect, be its object. lam
sure, also, that the committee from whoa rooms you
date your letter would inform you, should you have any
doubt on the subject, that no archbishop or bishop of the
English establishment would consider it part of his duty. to
accede to proposals for public discussion with any foreign
catholic priest who might think it right to challenge any of
them, this being no part of the episcopal office. Nor can I
suppose that the object of that committee, in their courtesy
to foreign ministers, was to make them champions in
this country of their own various sects, or of English
protestantism. Allow me, therefore, respectfully to say,
that I cannot but consider your invitation to me as
much out of place as I should deem a similar one from
a French priest to an Anglican dignitary. To such a
challenge I should say, did he appear here, that there was
in England a proper and sufficient authority to undertake
the defence of the catholic cause without the gratuitous
interposition of a foreign and uncoramissioned clergyman.
I must not conclude without observing that your selection
of topics for the proposed discussion supposes that tue ca-
tholic church and faith are on the defensive as against pro-
testantism, and that their supporters have nothing better to
do than to answer the railing charges of its assailants at the
latter's will. Allow me to say that I have never been
accustomed to treat controversy so, and that, without know-
ing to what particular section of continental protestantism
you belong, I consider you in the position of having to
defend yourself and yours from the heavy charge of schism,
by separation from the one only fold of Christ, the pillar
and ground of truth, as well as of heresy fur holding doc-
trines at variance with its teaching.—Commending you to
the grace of our Lord that you may see his light, I am, sir,
your obedient servant, N. CARD. WISRMAIN.-M. Peraux,
Pasteur Protestant."
FATALITY AT SEA.—On Sunday last, some one on
board the freight-ship Stag, lying off West Cowes, observed
a boat apparently upset near the Bramble Buoy, about two
miles to leeward. A high sea was running at the time, and
Mr. Clarke, the first mate, having caused one of the ship's
boats to be lowered and manned, proceeded in the direction
of the Bramble Buoy. With considerable difficulty they
succeeded in finding the boat, which was completely water-
logged, and contained two men, who were barely able to
keep their heads above water. A third had quitted the boat
about a quarter of an hour before their arrival, with the in-
tention of swimming to shore, but had almost immediately
sunk. It appeared that they were coopers by trade, and
belonged to London; that they were working at Newport,
and had hired the boat for a sail on the Medina, but were
carried out to sea by the tide, when, being quite incapable
of managing the boat, she was capsized. The two survivors
were safely landed at West Cowes. The name of the man
drowned is William Walsh.

A STATE. INSURANCE COMPANT.—The Duke of
Modena has issued a decree, enacting that those of his sub-
jects who diorite to insure their property against fire, shall
declare their intention to a committee named for the pur-
pose by the government, and thenceforth form part of a
mutual insurance company, consisting of Modenese subjects
only. No Modeneae subject is henceforth to insure his pro-
perty in a foreign insurance office. Nevertheless, such
contracts as exist at present are to be respected. until their
expiration.
" A SECRET OP STATE."—A curious was, a few
days ago, submitted to the Court of Assizes of the depart-
ment of the Morbihan. Three men, named Petre, Sleet,
and Ruello, were tried for attempting to sell what is called a
" secret of the state" totheEnglishgovemment. Itappesred
from the indictment that in the port of Lorient there is an
establishment for the manufacture of a peculiar description
of cannon-calls for the navy, of a very dangerous nature,
called boulete ruphyzians. Petre was employed in the
making of these balls, and Binet was also employed in the
port. In November and December last they got leave of
absence, and went with Ruello, who is a baker, to London.
Ruello supplied the funds. It was immediately rumoured,
from some observations they had made, that they had
gone to England to sell the secret of making these balls to
the English government, and it was ascertained that Binet
and Ruello had had frequent communications with the
English consul at Lorient. These two men had also caused
an application to be made to a notary, named Le Bobinec,
for an advance of 4,000 fr., and promised to pay him 25.000 ft%
for it: they then said that they wore going to England to
sell a secret for making balls, which would bring them in
several millions. Pere was also heard to make a similar
statement to Binet's wife. On arriving M London,
they, accompanied by an interpreter, went to the Board
of Admiralty. Their proposition was favourably received,
cud they were sent down to Portsmouth that experiments
might be made with their secret. The experiments lasted
fifteen days, and took place on board the Excellent, Captain
Chada. The captain's report to the Admiralty was not
sufficiently favourable to induce it to purchase-the secret;
nevertheless, an indemnity of 1,200 (451.) was awarded to
the men; they had demanded 4,000 fr. They then attempted
to sell the secret to the ambassador of Russia and to the
American consul, but both declined to accept it. The three
men passed some time in London, and, when their money
was exhausted they fell into misery. In August last Pete
returned to France and enlisted into a regiment at St.
Omer, but he wee cog • and arrested. Binet and
Ruello arrived at Bo ogne in November, and were
arrested. The accused, on being interrogated by the court,
denied that they had been to England to sell the secret ;
but in addition to the above facts, it appeared that reports
of the police who had watched them in London, and their
own correspondence with their families, stated the contrary.
It was also shown that Petre knew part of the secret from
being employed in making the bullets, and that he had
got the rest of it by examining the papers of Colonel Thou-
venin, the director of the manufactory. The jury, however
after hearing the evidence and pleadings, returned a verdict
ot " Not guilty" in favour of all the accused.—Oalifsani.

NEW Alta FOR BATH.
Sir R. INGLIS moved for aI ew writ for Bath for a
member to serve in the place of Lord Ashley, called to the
ROOM of Peers. The Ira. barest book this opportunity of
eulogising the character sad this eiroiees of Lord Ashley.

TheSl hon. baronet is awls. • new

Mr. W. WILLIAMS thought that it was disrespectful to
the house to occupy attention with such a matter when the
sitting was Incited to sin hours, and when important busi-
ness stood on the paper. (Hear.)
Sir IL INGLIS had not expected that any bon. member
would grudge a lee moments to en expression of symfri:t2
at the departure loom that house of the friend of the
lam. The hen. baronet then abruptly terminated kW speak
and saved that the writ be issued.
Mr. BROTHERTON concurred in the hon. baraset's
view of the meritorious services in the cause of the poor of
Lord Ashley.
Mr. FoRSTER begged it would be understood that he
had only interfered, in the belief that tho hon. baronet
was out of order.
Sir 0. GREY was sure that the house would cordially
concur is. the admiration expressed by the hon. baronet, of
the career of Lord Ashley; and be hoped that that noble
lord, in his new sphere, would sucasfally continue that
career.

1 he writ was then ordered.
SUM )AY T RADINO PREVENTION BILL.

TIM order of the day fur the adjourned debate (on the
motion to go int.. committee) on this bill was then read.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS complained of the numerous and
impracticable amendments in reference to this bill, which
had been put upon the paper by the hon. and learned mem-
ber fur Youghal (Mr. Ansley). This was a bill demanded
by the metropolis, and of which the majority of the metro-
politan members hail approved; and it was altogether un-
justifiable for au hon member in no way connected with
the metropolis to offer a factious opposition to such a
Reason
Mr. ItOEBCCK denied that this was a bill of which
metropolitan members only were called on to ex-
press approval or disapproval. This was a measure
totally uncalled (or ; and as it now stood it
was simply so much mote nailer. This was a bill
which wan. to prevent the "selling, vending, hawking, or
crying," of " any goods, chattels, matters, or things when-
server," after U u clock on the Sundt, morning. This
Was the sweeping enactment of the bet clause. Theo
came the cleeptions. Apothecaries, dmellib, and chenille
were ezeepted. But why were the via= if "milk nil

then commented upon the great number of articles the
sale of which on Sundays, provided it wax widish the pow
scribed hour-, was exempted from penalty; 1161111Miall .et
these exceptions would leave the practice of fluindny tmiteg

Sir G. STRICKLAND objected to the clause in ques-
tion, as be murdered these matters were better left to ar-
rangement between the landlord and the taunt.
Mr. FRESHFIELD supported the bill.
Sir G. GREY suggested that it would be better to die-
cuss the details in committee.
Col. SIBTHORP objected to any interference by legisla-
tion between landlords and tenants. If they could not
agree, let them separate.
Mr. S. CRAWFORD thought the fourth clause was only
such M simple and plain justice required. He feared it was
the object of the landlord clam to keep tenants in a state of
bondage, and therefore a bill of this kind was necessary.
After a few words from Mr. Beat,
Mr. HUME dissented from the statement of the hon.
member for Rochdale, as showing the necessity of the bill.
Mr. Spouse and Cul. DUNNE made • few remarks, and
the house then went into committee.
Clause I was agreed to with some verbal amendments.
In clause 2 some verbal alterations having been dis-
posed of,
Mr. HENLEY opposed the clause altogether, as being
calculated to complicate the affairs of clergymen dying in
the occupation of their glebes.
Mr. MULLINGS supported the clause.
Mr. SPOONER, being the executor of a deceased cler-
gyman who had farmed 400 acres of his glebe, had a prac-
tical acquaintance with the evils of the present sy.tem. He
was unable to make any arrangement with the new incum-
bent, and that gentleman was deprived for some time of
his income. On the other hand, if the clergyman had died
at another part of the year, his family would have been the
'offerers.
Sir G. GREY thought the difficulty of the hon. gentle-
man was an imaginary one. lie knew of no law to prevent
the parties making an arrangement.
Mr. BOUYERIE supported the clause,
And, after some other conversation, the clause was with-
drawn.
In clause 3,
Mr. GRANGER said this clause bed been justified by
putting a very extreme case. There was, however, a grow-
ing opinion that the landlord's powers of distress were very
unfair to the other creditors, and he hoped, therefore, that
the house would not increase these powers. The clause, at
the best, was quite unnecessary.
Mr. MULLINGS argued for the necessity of the law to
enable the landlord to recover his rent.
Sir G. GREY cousidered that the rights of creditors
would he very materially affected by the clause.
Mr. MULLINGS explained that such would not be the
ease. _ _

The ATTORNEY-GENEItAL observed that if one exe-
cution creditor could conic in and obtain a preference over
other creditors, there might be some pretext for altering
the law of debtor and creditor; but as that law was fair
both to the landlord and the execution creditor, they had
better make no alteration.
Mr. FRESHFIELD defended the clause, as affording

justice to the landlord.
Mr. HENLEY said that if the present state of the law
were maintained, it wenn drive the landlords to put in die-

teems quarterly.
Mr. altANtilElt thought that it landlords adopted that
tonne, they would raise such a norm of indignation as
would sweep the law of distress from the statute book, as
he had no doubt would be the ease ere long.

Mr. BRIGHT said that the preference given to landlords
had excited great discussion in Scotland and England. The
report of the Devon commission went, he thought, to the
same elect; and he suggested that the law should be left
r it was, inasonneh as any attempt to bolster it up by a new
enactment might lead to its being abolished sooner than it
might otherwise have been.
Colonel DI:NNE said that in Ireland anybody could
ante crops except the landlord, who was continually cheated
by fraudulent acknowledgments.
After some further conversation,
Mr. MULLINOS stated, in answer to Mr. Anstcy, that
the bill gave no further power to landlords in England
than they now enjoyed.
Mr. ANSTEY objected to the retention of the words
•' or otherwise," which might be construed to give land-
lords other remedies beyond distress.
Mr. M'CULLAGII could not assent to the alteration of

thi,liwofdisT;;;;pr;po.7ciliciiieeFause:By the act of
1846, the power of seizing the growing crop wan in Ireland
taken from the landlord; but it was left to the ordinary
creditor having en execution spinet the goods of the
tenant. It was stated that facilities were than afforded for
collusion, aa against the landlord, If that were so the
remedy should be sought in the opposite direction, mad
the right of seising the uneceured crop had better be taken
away altogether. Undoubtedly it would be fairer to take it
from both creditor and landlord than to leave it to one
and not to the other. So long as the creditor retained the
power the landlord would seek to regain it, awl so long the
farming class would feel that they were in danger of !anv-

LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE 19.

IN the sketch already given of the positions which
the various states of tho Plate and Brazil occupy in
relation to cechother, and the attitude the Diplomacy
of England has assumed at Buenos Ayres and Rio de
Janeiro, we have shown how, on regaining possession
of authority in the Banda Oriental, General Oates,
after the lawless fashion of a successful military
chief in South America, levied reprisals on the great
landed proprietors of that state who had supported
the pretensions of his opponent, General RIVERA ;
how he carried his exactions beyond the bounda-
ries of hie own republic into the Brazilian province
of the Rio Grande, thence, it is said, carrying off,
sr destroying, the almost incredible number of
000,000 head of cattle; how the Brazilian govern-
ment had tbsimatled satisfaction and redress for this
attack ea Its territory and this plunder of its sub-
limes; how, whilst a discussion thereupon was in
at Monte Video, the Representative of
Mitterre:ll Roma at Rio appropriated to himself and
to his master the defence of General ORIBE, and re-
quired the withdrawal of those Brazilian requisitions;
how, on the Rio Cabinet declining to recognise any
such interference on the part of Buenos Ayres in its
controversy with Monte Video, the Minister of
Buenos Ayres obtained his passports and withdrew,
threatening hostilities; how Ros is immediately
summoned the Chiefs of the other provinces of the
Argentine Confederation to send contingents into the
Banda Oriental to act, as he might deem n ,
against Brazil; how the Imperial Government, in self-
defence, had advanced 12,000 troops into the province
of the Rio Grande, and sent its fleet to the Plate
to enforce, if required, its claims on Monte Video ;
and bow UsQuizA, the military chief in possession
of power, and at the head of some small army,
in the province of Entre Rios, had taken ad-
vantage of these embarrassments to excite the
other provinces of the Argentine Confederation
to combine against ROSAS, in the hope of receiving
assistance from Brazil, and still more, perhaps, with
the expectation that the threatened league against
}toms would retard, if not avert, the ratification by
France of the treaties concluded by Admiral LEPRE-
DOUR in its behalf with General ROSAS and ORIBE—
an expectation that seems not unlikely to be realised.
Such is the position of these states to each other—
such the internal hostility of parts of the Argentine
Confederation to the Chief of its principal province.
If our readers will look at the excellent map pre-
pared by Mr. ARROWSMITH, from materials fur-
nished to that skilful Geographer by Sir Wool). I
BINE PARISH, on his return from Buenos Ayres, they
will perceive that the Confederation, an enormous
parallelogram upwards of 1,000 miles in length, and
full 500 in breadth, is subdivided into no fewer than
thirteen provinces. These subdivisons are, however,
bound together by the very slightest general ties. Each
is, in point of fact, independent of the other ; ruled by
its own chief, and by an illusory form of representa-
tive government under his control; its mural population
lazy and corrupt—its rural, wild and lawless ; central
authority or power there is none; the connexion is
rather geographical, and historical, and traditional
than political ; repulsive, not homogeneous. Of
these thirteen states, so in theory united,
Buenos Ayres is, from position, population, and the
character of its chief, by far the most important ; and,
as it commands the mouths of the great highway
by which all the rest are to be reached, to Buenos
Ayres has been confided the representation of the
Confederation in its foreign affairs; hence, to the
rest of the world the Governor of Buenos Ayres
represents and speaks for the Argentine Confede-
ration ; though practically, even in its foreign rela-
tions, that State has no real power over the union,
and in the separate internal affairs of the other pro-
vinces, it bas not even the semblance of any.
To Rests, the Governor of Buenos Ayres, has been
attributed the design of recomposing tie old Spanish
Province of the Plate under one, and, of course, his own
government. Whether he really entertains any such
desire, is scarcely worth an inquiry ; br it is an im-
possibility ; and, if it were not, he is hardly the hero
destined to refound a state of that magnitude in
South America. That part of his policy which
is more t is the maintenance of his own
power at Buenos Ayres, and the predominance
of Buenos Ayres in the Plate. How he has hitherto
secured the former, his enemies tell horrible, and in
nll probability, greatly exaggerated tales. Certain
it is, however, that he first recovered Monte Video
and the Banda Oriental from the Brazilians, and,
having brought them back to Spanish authority he
has now (thanks chiefly, however, to the ambitious
designs of Lorne PHILIPPE, who attempted to tarn
Monte Video into a French colony) made them both
subservient to Buenos Ayres. Hence, when difficul-
ties arise between the Banda Oriental and Brazil, he
interposes on behalf of the former; and out of that
interposition has come the embroglio already de-
scribed.

Thus cheated, British diplomacy has again interfered
in the dam of the Plate. Scarcely twelve months
tirlstssi since it escaped from its former ember-
ia that river, involving an enormous cost to
our Imam and our commerce ; and now it is, regard-
less et that experience, once more unfolding
its web, as it this country had not sufficiently ex-
peened its Mike of snob meddlesome policy. The
pretence, as usual, is a Treaty. It is, however, this
time a treaty to which we wore not evea a formal
ta. When, some three-.ad-twenty pore ago,
rzatril and Buenos Ayyres wee fighting fir the
Banda Oriental, Lord Pomon', then ma minister
at Rio, mediated ; and, on the 27th of August, 1828,
he procured the signature of those two govenments
to preliminary articles of peace. When, however,
they requested Lord PONSQNBT to maks Eagiand
a formal andguaranteam party to arroagements,
their
he refused to involve itcpind by any me
menu. By this treaty, the sung state=
took to negotiate and mash& a definitive
of peace and amity; ad by its 18th =
they agreed that lartinnaly to its eraelasion,
and during its negolialion, neither should moan-
inenos hootilitim without giving to England six
months' nodal. The definitive treaty of peace has,
however, sever boon • and it is under the
18th articled the platy that British dip-
iconacy.now 'aims to have a right to natively 'e-
