made by ths worthy sidemen would be attended to.
The Alderman said he had no doubt the cos potation would
allow all exponent
B. T. Aldridge, clerk to an aeosentant, said, I used to live
at Mr. Todd's &ambers. About three months' ego, owe Sacs
day, I was dressing, between 10 and 11 o'clock. when I
heard • shriek. I esd Rot see the girl hasten, I only beards ,
'shriek. ?lever mentioned the isieettautenee to Mr. Todd.
T. Puke, was muter of the West London Onion;
at Belmontou, 'early 8 years. Knew Jane Waked. Oho'
was admitted is 1839. She was 011114 6 years of age. It woo,
above the 12th of July, 1849, a lady celled at the establish-
um& She said her nuns was Sloane, of No. 8, Pomp
I roarer Temple. She said the wag the wife of Mr. 0. *loans,
• spethl pleader. She said she wanted a servant girl, and
that she bad been recommended to the establishment for one.
She selected Jane Wined beams she was the healthiest
of the number. She 'leo preferred the girl because she had
!no friends. She said etie would rather have a girl that bad
no friends, because she could brie' her up in her own ways.
When she left she (Jane Winged) bed two suits of clothes.
Whistle took her to Mrs. Sloane. Before I left the girl
I requested her to write to me to inform the how she got en.
I diet this on all occonons. Mrs. Sloane said she should
write, and that the should have • holiday. She
wrote, nor did she have the holiday. She was gaits well
then, and appeared very robust. She was induatrieus, and
alwsys dean is her appearance.
The Aldermat—Whey was the first time you saw her
ilefter that ocieurrenee
The Witness—A few days since, at the hawked I read the
eimmint in the newspapen. I did not know her when I was
slums her, and -hen she neognised wis the burst into

! The Alderman asked if the girl was strong enough to bear
the evidence read over.
Mr. Phillimore thought she less.
John Stevens wagthea called, and his evident* taken nn a
former occasion which was fatly reported 14 the Eznreu on
Ileaday wee read. This witness, it will be remembered, is
slink to Mr. Phillimore, who saw the unfortunate girl on the
stain, en ea accsaion when she complained of her stomach.
Mr. Phillimore was nest exstnined, and his evidence we.
also Mks upon the depositions and read over. The winter
added that he did not sleep in the chambers, sad that he
only mewled the chambers during the day.
Limbs* Bell, the laundress, to whose house the girl
was taken after Mrs. Phillimore had removed her from the
custody of the defendant, said the girl's clothes wets very
dirty, end her bones were nearly protruding frog the skin.
Her shoulders sad arms were covered with marks. tier evi.
dense was read over and signed.
The other evidence having been repeated,
Dr. Marsden said be was of opinion that the girl was tree
from any disease, and that her eassesiatioe arose from the
want of food and warmth. The witness added that the girl
was the most perfect living skiilekin he bad ever seen.
Jane Wilbred was then pl.ced in • seat next to the
alderman. She appeared exceedingly pale, and in a most
weak condition. Her evidence was read over. It created
mach sensation, sod the offices bad some difficulty in limp-
ly order while it was being read over.
When the evident* wee concluded,
The Alderman asked the unfortunate girl if the evidence
wee correct.
She replied, in • faint voice, that it was quits correct.
Mr. Peanuts: said it would be meat desirable that Mrs.
Sloan. should be charged with her husband.
The Alderman said that was his intender, and after the
girl had signed her evidence, he should issue his warrant
ter Mrs. 810the's spprehension.
Mr. Clarkson then addressed the bench en behalf of his
meat. lie said that be should refrain from cross-examining
tie girl until she was ina bitter condition to bear that or
deal.
The Alders's& said be bad Wed is • most judicious lath-
me la not crom-eumiatag the girl in hr menet mate. It
was hieintentien to send this ease to the Old Bailey.
Mr. Clarkson said he hoped the alderman would enlarge

the recognisance,.
Kr. Poatitez said he thought the ere amid not be ems.
tasted by the nest seeeicov, and that it would be advisable
to euteed the ease over till the limitary maeons.
Mr. Chaisson said hie client woe quite willies that such
an arreagemeat should be made.
After seam dtweassion,
The Alderman said he should remand the defendants for
a week, and by that tkne the girl might be in a position to
ha ertersasatised.
The hell was the* salaried, sad the dabodast left the
apart with hie friends.
As he wee leaving the mart, the whole of the perms

This display dfeeling wee quickly suppressed by the tames.

the reformation was of a differeat kind. All °tidal eada-
satudeatioa with the Popo was interdicted. Whilst aim
nations mewed themselves, or endeavoured to de se, by
moped with the Sovereign Pontiff, England adopted as
her security a renunciation of all othnel intercourse.
Thb constitutional safeguard, or supposed safeguard,
has been lately removed, or more properly speak-
ing relazod—for by a moat act official. iutereoune with
the Pope was made legal, only in his capacity of temporal
sovereign of the Roman States. Another, however, and, let
I us hopes more efficient safegnard is still preserved—the
transfer of mensiestical supremacy In them realms from the
Pope to the sovereign of them restos. This latter, let me
observe to you, is rot a mere provisien for 'maintaining
the rights of the 'sovereign. Whatever it might have
been originally, in Henry the Eighth's view of it, is
its subsequent magnifica and maittenance it has become
we unimportant part of the nations' protest against the in-
tervention of the Pope in our affairs, whether cavil or eccle-

infringed in one paint of view, by the independence whisk
the dissenting bodies claims ; bat not as to its main oldest I
and intent. It is a provision agairat foreign interfennew. . I
" And yet, as a foreign supremacy is essential to the
very existence of the Romistt Church in England, it was
mealiest!, sasemery, from the first, either to permit the
Romealts to acknowledge the Pope as their supreme head,
to the exclaim of the severeigm's claim, or else to pro-
hibit their religion altogether. The course adopted is well
Escluiro from certain important rights which
belonged to them as subjects was the condition under which
the divided allergies's was tolerated. Certain restrictions
were farther imposed on the Exercise of their religion, and
enforced by pains and penalties. The aspedient proved •
I failure.
'Successive generations have been gradually reversing
this polls,. We have gone ea removing restrictions;
sad we have gone even further. The Romish archbishop
and bishops in Ireland are recognised, and a precedence
assigned them as such next to those of the established'
church. The same rank has been subeequently granted to
thou in our colonies. Even at this let us not murmur. It
wee pert of • generous and confiding policy, which alone is
to
accordance with our age, with our fres institutions, and
with • reliance os stronger weapons than worldly re-
mums furnish for the maintenance of God's truth.
I have willed your attention to the actual position into
which this Forming mares of oonceesion has brought as
in ranee' of the Ramjet church and its foreign ruler, not
to excite discontent in you, which, even if it were just and
reasonable, would be fruitless; bat in order that we may
see oar way the more clearly on an occasion which has
exhibited as exercise of authority in this country by that
foreign sovereign such as has not been attempted dam the
Reformation, sad by which, whether it prove legal or ille-
gal, he seems to have designed boldly to test the diaposition
of the English people at large, challenging their sympathies
or else their indignant remotion of an appeal to their spays.

offered my advice. I,t is #4'110041 te me to find that in
soondsuce with • stip/onion I made some weeks ago,
an address to her Majesty from the clergy and laity
of the diatom is in preparation. The promulgation of the
ball from game, it indeed it is to be promulgated, in a matter
to be dealt with by her Majesty's advisers, and Lord John
Ruesall's frank and timely letter may be regarded as a pledge
that it is under consideration. But it is incumbent on no to
lay before the throne our assurance that our beloved
sovereign will have our cordial support in the vindication
of her rights, and of the Protestant character of the country,
whether from actual aggression or from insult."
