THE POPISH. CONFESSIONAL.,
In one of his recent speeches at Leeds, to a crowded
audience, Father Gavazzi made some startling revela-
tions re.Tecting the iromoralties of the confessional,
and also of the political purposes to which that tre-
mendous engine of priestly power is applied. The
following passages from the Father's eloquent epeech
deserve to be read with the greatest attention :
" Generally speaking, the priests are all immoral—a
fact which is supported by the details of the public
trials in France. You have fifteen or twenty trials of
confessors for murder recorded; and from these records
it appears that the beginning of the passion, the cri-
minal passion, was in the confessional. In this manner
these confessors became guilty while confessing those
girls, who were afterwards alike their accomplices
end their vietims.—(Hear, hear.) Go now, you
Romanists, and apologise for your auricular confes-
sion. Auricular confession, I say, is immoral in its re-
sults, as they operate upon private families. Who is the
master of a Christian family? Always the father confes-
sor. Son,
obey
ilia confessor
your confessors than your mo-
he r
nfessor rather than thy father.
D arather the confessor; and also in the,
dudes of wife, y
obey
husbands.—(Applause.) And it is the same with ser-
vants,aughtNevrsiv,
eos,h oeybo
rather your confessors than your
theyo will obey their confessors rather than their
masters. Is this moral, is it pure, is it of good report?
No, no. God himself has appointed one to be chief in
every family; but the priesthood reek to destroy this
t e .
authority, because their ambition and their influence are
pampered and increased at the expense of peace and una-
nimity
of facts in history to confession are disturbers of everything. We have abun-

We have it recorded in history, that it
Kteehaionssgetsbkoeif3eenlessors who obtained the expulsion of the
ittloors from Spain and Portugal—that it was the confes-
sors who obtained the massacre of the Huguenots on the
eve of St. Bartholomew—that it was his father confessor
who obtained from Louis XIV. the revocation of the edict
of Nantes, in antagonism to the liberty of the Calvinists.—
(Applause.) In this manner you have in every part of Eu-
rope despots noting under the suggestions of their father
confessor; a
and, as I will demonstrate in my last lec-
ture, even the hymns of Naples would not be so wicked,
were it not for the influence of his father confessor.
Such is the
potency of the confessional even in the
most exalted society in various nations of the earth,
and it is not only in the kingdoms of despots that the
;
confessional does its unhallowed work, but also in
constitutional
kingdoms. Yon .have an instance
of this in the kingdom of Piedmont, when the
siccardi in
were passed against the usurpation
of Pope and Popery. Many of the bigoted sena-
tors had called for an adjournment of the session, in
order that they might consult their father confessors as
" you must
to their votes, and the answer of the confessors was,
it learnt
'he libertyofthe •
vote against the laws siccardi and against
citizens—you must support none but
Rome and its tyranny." My friends, it is the same in
&gland. L
ast year was a very instructive one to me;
me agreat lesson as to the influence of the Romish
Church in this country, and that lesson is one which
will be very much enlarged during the forthcoming Bri-
tish Parliament. The Irish Brigade—(Cheers)—the Irish

support of the Pope, and the usurpation of the Pope
against the laws and constitution of your country—against
the majesty of

your Queen, and against the glory of your
Brigade. And I say that until you do away with the
confessional, you never will have a pyropwith the er or a com-
petent Legislature,
until you do awa

or a free Parliament.—(Cheers.) nt.—(Cheers.)
I conclude my lecture
by quoting a horrible fact—as a proof of the immorality
of auricular confessien—l allege a fact which took place
in my poor Italy. When the Roman Republic destroyed
the Palace of the Roman Inquisition, we found many
in Euro
arid many thousands of letters written by Roman
Catholic bishops all over the world, discovering and
making known all the chief liberals, not onlyPe, but in America and Asia. Now all this
information had been extorted by means of the
confessional.—(Sensation.) We have four bulls of
Popes. Benedict XIII., Pius VII., Leo XII., and Gre-
gory XVI., who thereby command all confessors to
oblige all
penitents to discover or reveal to them all the
iberals who exist to their knowledge. Oh, English-
men, Englishmen judge you from this only fact of
the wicked tendency and immoral nature of enmities
confession._( Applause.)
ea.ppiause.) In my pour Italy, many
sisters were obliged to denounce their brothers. In
my poor Italy many, many sons were obliged to de-
nounce their fathers. And, horrible to say, many
mo:hers were obliged to denounce their sons—their
rilGsnlireat Britain,
'he, after a few hours, were bound by
police,--c-ondemned to prison—nay, not unlikely, to
d itself. This is the confessional in my coun-

all Europe. Its purpose is to suppress all aspira-
tions for freedom, for civil and religious liberty, and
for the nationality of my poor country. Oh, cruel con-
fessional.—(Applause.) Some of the facts which I
have quoted, mind you, are Irish facts. In Ire-
land there is a fanatic, a desperate man, that green-
stockinged angel of Tuain—(Loud applause)--De
M‘Hale, who, some months ago, gave judgment upon
a reset ved case of reading the Bible, and his
sentence went to deprive of absolution all Irishmen read-
ing the Holy Bible. Now, take notice, my friends, in
Ireland there exists a bad society, a society of murderers.
Ibis society is called the Ribbon Society. Is it a Pro-
(testant or a Ca:mhbyoislhiecoopsosceietty ? It is a Catholic society.—
Applause.) Answer me, priesthood of Ireland. Answer

the world will see, that in a few short months the
Ribbon Society will fall and be extinct.—(Loud ap-

remain so great a difficulty for Parliament and the

street, Hanover.square, respecting the circumstances attends.
ing the death of Mr. Thomas Taylor, aged 53. On Saturday
he retired to bed about eleven o'clock, the servant placing-
his night light for him. on Sunday morning, as he
did not
make his appearance, the servant knocked at his door, but,t
receiving no answer, she turned the latch, and found him
hanging inside close beside it. She called to the footman,-
who held him up while she cut the cord, and a surgeon
was
sent for, who on his arrival pronounced him to be quite
dead, and that he had been so for many hours. The
ceased must have accomplished the act, which must have
occupied at least an hour, in a singular manner. He slept
in a press bedstead, which had the appearance of a ward-
robe when folded up. He had made use of a carpet bag,
which he had ingeniously fixed over the top, all the
while
probably with the rope round his neck, so that when be
leaped from a chair he should go to the floor, on which one
of his knees was, instead of tha bed. The jury returned a
verdict— That the deceased destroyed himself while in a
state of Temporary Insanity.
DEATH PROM EATING CuAMPIGNONS.—On
Wed-
nesday Mr. G. S. Brent held an inquest at the Paincess Vic-
toria, Starch-green, Hammersmith, upon the potmar., who
was killed by eating champignons--a species of mushroom_
under the following circumstances :—lr appeared from the
evidence that on the Wednesday previous a lad named
George Turner gathered a pint of champignons, which he
cooked at the Victoria, and equally divided between himself,
an old man of the name of Newton, and deceased, all of
whom partook of them, seasoned with pepper and salt. Im.

g
with a violent vomiting, which continued the next and the
followingrd
-a.Y, when he was confined to bed; and although
i‘ ix. Keen, surgeon, was called in, and applied every possible
rtritidote and remedy, be died in great agony the same night.
Upon making an autopsy, Mr. Keen found the stomach
greatly inflamed by the champignons, which inflamtnaiion
caused death. But Mr. Keen gave it as his opinion that the
eating of them would not have proved fatal had not deceased
led a wild, dissipated life. Mr. Keen further observed, that
the other parties who ate the champignons were not at all
affected. The Coroner observed that in France champignons
were eaten in large quantities. Verdict, " Accidental
death."

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Sept. 2.
(Before Mr. Commissioner FANE.)
IN RE T. MEESON.

The bankrupt was a coal merchant in Fenchurch
street. This was a sitting appointed for the last exl,
urination. The debts were said to be about 7,0001.
and the assets about 700/.

Further time was required to prepare the accounts,
and an adjournment was applied for.
His HONOUR ordered an adjournment accordingly

IN BE J. H. MOERIi.

The bankrupt was a manufacturer of India-rubber
pavement and rectifier of naptha, King William-street,
Strand. This was also a last examination meeting.
The balance-sheet showed the following results:—
.

Capital at commencement, 100/ ; debts, 3.597/. The
assets were—good debts and property, 8/. ; doubtful
ditto, 148/. ; profits, 4901. ; expenses, 2,328/. ; losses,
1,7131.

The official assignee, in reply to the Commissioner,
said that not a shilling had yet been realized.
The bankrupt ultimately passed his examination.

IN RE SEWELL.

The. bankrupt was a solicitor and money-scrivener
at Swaffhaw, and applied to-day for his certificate.
He owed to unsecured creditors 2,1451.; creditors
holding security, 3,2231. The assets were about 2501.,
exclusive of prop.rty in the hands of the secured cre-
ditors, valued at 2
,5881.

Mr. HAWKINS, for the bankrupt, said it was the
unanimous wish of the creditors that this bankrupt
should receive a certificate of the highest class, and
creditors to the amount of upwards of 1,0001. had
signed their names to a document he held in his bands
expressing that wish. The bankrupt had filled no less
than ten public offices.

His HONOUR observed that there was a deficiency
of 1,8001. in 1849, and the bankrupt ought then to
have called his creditors together. He would, how-
ever, grant a certificate of the second class.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.

The City Solicitor attended to prosecute an infor-
mation against William Newton, the master of Wa-
terman No. 11 ste-unboat, for proceeding on an
excursion to the Nore, the boat being only li-
censed to ply on the Thames between London and
Gravesend.

In answer to the usual question, the defendant
pleaded guilty, and said that he had upon many
former occasions made the same trip in the same boat
without any accident or complaint.
The City Solicitor said it was not his intention to
press for a severe penalty, as he admitted that till the
recent appointment of inspectors took place the mas-
ters of steamers on the Thames and other rivers
throughout the empire had assumed a sort of roving
commission to go as they pleased, when they pleased,
and where they pleased, without any regard to the
safety or convenience of the passengers.
A judgment of guilty having been recorded, an in-
formation against Philip Green, of the steam-boat
Echo, for a similar offence, was read. He also
pleaded guilty, and urged in mitigation his ignorance
of the law.
The LORD MAYOR said he was disposed to punish
the defendants upon the present occasion very lightly,
as these cases were the first that had been prosecuted
under the provisions of this most beneficial statute.
The certificates under which these boats were per-
mitted to ply on the river limited their voyages to
London-bridge and Gravesend. Boats that were well
qualified from their make, shape, and size, to convey
a stated number of paasengers, were quite unfit to
encounter the swell of the tide further down the river.
As a commercial man himself he was anxious to fetter
as little as possible the free operations of trade in the
river, but the public must be protected, and although
in the present instance he should, under the circum-
stances stated, inflict a penalty of only 50s. in each
case, he warned the defendants that if they were
brought before him again he should deal with them
with much greater severity.
The City Solicitor said, that the proceedings under
every information involved a considerable expense for
witnesses and documents, and as his Lordship, in the
exercise of his discretion, imposed so light a penalty
for first offences in consequence of the supposed igno-
rance of the parties offending, he should withdraw an
application be had previously made to Mr. Goodman,
the chief clerk, for a summons against the owners and
master of one of the large steamers plying on the
river, for concealing the certificate of the Board of
Trade, which was required to be kept constantly ex-
hibited in a conspicuous part of the vessel. The 10th
section of the Act required the "owner and master
of every steam- vessel to cause the certificate (contain-
ing, among other things, the limits of her range of
sailing, and the number of passengers she was autho-
rized to carry) to be put up in some conspicuous part
of the vessel, so as to be visible to all persons on board
the same, and to cause such certificate to be continued
so put up so long as it remains in force." In order to
evade the Act, the certificate hung up in the cabin
was often intentionally covered by a hat, a picture, or
a cloak, so that the inspector and passengers might in
vain search for it ; it was nowhere to be found. He was
happy to say that the appointment of the inspectors
bad done much good; they had heard the captains
give directions to count the passengers as they came
on board, in order that the number admitted might
not exceed the number mentioned in the certificate.
The river steamers were, however, so numerous, that
it would be impossible for any two inspectors to de-
tect every case of violation ; besides which, as their
persons became known to the people employed their
opportunities of detecting would be diminished. It
appeared by the newspapers that some of the boats
Plying on the river were still occasionally over-
crowded, to the serious alarm of the passengers. If
gentlemen whose lives were thus endangered would
demand to see the certificate, count the
passengers,
and give notice to the steam-boat inspectors at the
Mansion-house, measures would be taken to enforce
the penalties.
The LORD MAYOR hoped the public would be
guided by what had just fallen from the City Solici-
tor. Without the assistance of the public, in cases
which could not be witnessed by the inspectors, the
Act could not be rendered effective ; with that aid
everything that could be desired for the security of
all would be accomplished. His Lordship thought
that in the cases which had been brought forward
there was great reason for mitigating the penalty ;
but, under the circumstances stated by the City So-
licitor, he could assure the parties that all future
cases should be treated with a degree of severity
likely to make a permanent impression.
WORSHIP-STREET.

Yesterday a man named Charles Kemp was placed
at the bar before Mr. I-Isnarnill, charged with the fol-
lowing mid-day assault and daring highway robbery.
Mrs. Emily Malthoff, the wife of a shoemaker in
Spitalfields, received a Post-office order on the morn-
ing before from her husband, who was out upon
business in the country, and, having got it cashed,
placed part of the money rolled up in paper down
her bosom, and some more of it loose in her pocket,
together with some of her husband's letters and a
parcel of shirt-buttons. She shortly after went out
upon an errand, and while passing through Com-
mercial-street, Whitechapel, at half-past twelve in
the day, saw the prisoner and three or four other
men standing together in such a manner as to block
up the pavement. She attempted to pass them, but
the instant she reached the prisoner he seized her by
the shoulders, turning her completely round, and
giving utterance to a most disgusting expression,
thrust his hand down the top of her dress. She tried

to push him from her, and insisted upon his letting
her go, but he persisted in his conduct, and a struggle
ensuing between them, of such a violent nature that
one of her wrists was so badly sprained she had
scarcely since had the use of it, the prisoner forced
his knee between her legs, and, having thrust his
hand into her pocket and abstracted her money and
its other contents, flung her heavily upon her back
on the pavement. She screamed loudly for assist-
ance, but the prisoner stifled her cries by holding his
hand forcibly over her mouth, until she at length at-
tracted the notice of a constable, who hastened up to
her aid, and the prisoner, who had then relinquished
his grasp of her, and had moved away, was inter-
cepted and taken into custody. The prosecu-
trix was helped up from the ground, and
found her husband's letters and the shirt-

buttons lying a short distance from her, but the
money that was in ber pocket previous to the at-
tack that had been made upon her was stolen, and
upon feeling down her bosom she found that the
silver she had placed there had likewise disappeared.
This last amount she did not like to swear had been
also stolen by the prisoner, and no money whatever
was discovered upon him on searching him at the sta-
tion; but the prosecutrix had no doubt whatever that
he had robbed her of both sums, and transferred them
to a confederate, as she distinctly
saw him pass some-
thing to a woman who cams up at the moment she
was recovering from the attack, and the instant the
woman received it she hurried away.
Todman, a constable of the A division, corroborated
the last witness's testimony, and described the condi-
tion in which he had found her, upon hastening up in
answer to her screams for the police; and the pri•
soner having stoutly protested that the whole of the
evidence against him was one tissue of falsehood, and
that he was entirely innocent,
Mr. HAMMILL intimated that he was of a different
opinion, and, having directed the depositions to be
taken by Mr. Huristone, the second clerk, ordered
the prisoner to be fully committed to Newgate for
trial.

The same parties were before Mr. Henry, under
similar circumstances, at Bow-street ; but his worship
dismissed the summons against another conductor,
on the ground that he did not consider the com-
plainant a bona fide passenger.
In the present case the complainant, who is a li-
censed conductor and part proprietor of the Crystal
omnibuses, running from Brompton to the Bank,
stated that he lived at the King's Arms, Fulham, and
that, in order that he should be in time at his stables
in Thistle-grove, Brompton, of a morning to go out
with his omnibus, he endeavoured to ride in the Put-
ney omnibuses. He was refused, and, on Thursday
last, when be applied to the defendant at Putney-
bridge, the starting-place, to be admitted into his
omnibus, be said he could not take him as a passenger,
and that if he did he should be discharged.
Mr. Martin, who appeared for the complainant,
contended that his client was a respectable person, and
a legitimate passenger. The complainant had for-
merly been in the service of Mr. Hartley, and since
he had belonged to the Crystal omnibuses, which ran
on a portion of the same ground, there had been a
great deal of competition between them.

Mr. Lewis, who appeared for Mr. Hartley, urged
that the case was similar to the one heard before Mr.
Henry, who considered it insufficient for the com-
plainant to be a passenger, but he must be a bond fide
one according to the Act of Parliament 6 and 7
Victoria, c. 86, s. 33, which was as follows :—" Who
shall refuse to admit and carry at the lawful fare any
passenger for whom there is room, and to whose ad-
mission no reasonable excuse is made." Mr. Hartley
bad given directions to his conductors not to admit
the complainant as a passenger, as he had been de-
tected riding in his omnibus without paying his fare,
and two conductors had been discharged in con-
sequence.
Mr. PAYNTEE said that was not a sufficient reason
for his being refused as a passenger. It was the
fault of the persons in charge of the omnibus for al-
allowing him to ride without paying.
Mr. Lewis said if the complainant connived at the
act then he would be guilty of fraud.
Mr. P.AYNTER observed, in that case Mr. Hartley
had his remedy in the County Court. He was not to
take the law into his own hands.

Mr. Lewis then called Mr. Hartley and two of his
conductors to prove that the complainant had ridden
in the omnibuses without paying, and that he endea-
voured to ride as a passenger for the purpose of an-
noyance. Mr. Hartley also stated that the com-
plainant had been discharged from his service for
misconduct towards Mr. Wilson, the omnibus pro-
prietor, who prosecuted some of his men for embez-
zlement.

Mr. PAYNTER decided that the complainant was a
bond fide passenger. He lived in Fulham, and there-
fore would have a lawful excuse for riding as a pas-
senger in Mr. Hortley's omnibuses in order to be in
time for his own omnibus. This case was widely
different from the one heard before Mr. Henry, and he
had no doubt that if it had been before him he would
have come to the same decision as his brother magis-
trate. The defendant had acted under the directions
of his master, and he should only impose a penalty
of 6i. and 2s. costs, which would answer all purposes.
Before he made his decision final he should make it
his business to see Mr. Henry upon the subject.
The summons was then suspended for a week.
Mr. Hartley said be was very sorry his Worship had
given a decision against him, as it would be the cause
of his being compelled to give up his business, as it
was impossible he could remain in Fulham and put
up with the conduct of the complainant and others.
Mr. PAYNTER cautioned the complainant as to his
future conduct, and said if Mr. Hartley were an-
noyed by any of them he would grant a summons
immediately.

MEETING OF MIDDLESEX MAGISTATES

Yesterday a meeting of the magistracy of this county
was held for the dispatch of county business. The re-
port of the Committee for Accounts and General Pur-
poses was read. In it they recommended the payment
of the coroners' accounts, as follows;—Mr. Baker,
4301. Is. 5d.; Mr. Witkley, 6471. 6s. 8c1.; Mr. Bedford,
1051. 44. 5,1.; and Mr. Higgs, 11l 10s. 6d.
ee
mr. ixEMSHEAD, in moving the adoption of this re-
commendation, said (referring to Mr. Weekley's account),
that the Court would most likely be struck with the very
large amount of this account; which was owing to the
unusal number of witnesses who had been called to give
evidence on these inquiries. This expense was one over
which they had no control; they only had power over
the coroners' fees, and not over the other charges.
Mr. WILKES made a preposition (which was adopted)
to the effect that the subject should be referred to the
Committee of Accounts and General Purposes, who
should report to the Court whether any measures could be
adopted to prevent the augmentation of the coroners'
charges, and particularly with regard to the payment of
witnesses, who appeared to be unusually numerous and
expensive. A report from the Committee of Visitors of
the Colney Hatch Asylum was read. They recom-
mended the acceptance of a tender for the loan of 3,0001.
for the purposes of the asylum. and also the exchange
of a piece of land. It appeared from a report by Mr.
Tite, that that gentleman had surveyed a piece of
ground belonging to the asylum, which was situated on
the opposits side of the Great Northern Railway, and
contained 21 acres of land suited for building purposes.
He had also surveyed the piece for which they proposed
to exchange it, which consisted of 35 acres of meadow
land abutting on the asylum and well suited for agricul-
tural purposes, and he strongly recommended them to
eff•ct the exchange. Tho suggestions of the committee
were then adopted. The usual prison reports were read.
From. them it appeared that the number of prisoners in
confinement in the House of Correction, Coldbath-fields,
was 1,285; namely, 720 felons, 390 misdemeanants, and
le 5 vagrants. In the House of Correction, Westmin-
ster, 771; namely, 243 males, and 528 females. After
aome further business, the Court adjourned.

THE FORTRESSES AND CASTLES OF
GREAT BRITAIN.
The Fortresses and Castles of Great Britain afford of
themselves an interesting and distinct object for study.
There are numerous examples left scattered over the
country; the constructions of various periods, from the
earth fortresses ascribed to the aborigines,—such as the
Herefordshire Beacon on the Malvern Hills, in Wor-
cestershire, and the remnants of Roman constructions,
as Richborough Castle, in Kent, and Porchester Castle
(infamously misused of late years)—down to the stately
structures of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries,wherein
security was less studied than magnificence, and the
fortress merged into the palace. An Anglo-Norman
castle may be described as consisting of banks and
ditches, with a wall occupying the top of the former, and
flanked by towers enclosing a large area, called the outer
ballium or court: entrance-gate towers, with a bridge
across the ditch, and guarded by a portcullis, an inner
ballium, separated from the outer by a strong wall, and
a keep or donjon within that, complete the arrangement.
Rochester Castle will afford you an example if you wish
one. The keeps were ill•lighted and comfortless, se-
curity being the primary consideration. You will often
find a well in the keep to supply water at the last
ex-
tremity, as you sometimes do, by the way, in some
churches is Normandy and elsewhere, which were
nected with fortresses. The number of castle
