Thus, not only are the resources of a whole nation 101-
justly applied to the maintenance of a single sect, but
the State Church becomes a source of increased strength
to an already too powerful aristocracy.—Reformer $
Abnanack for 1849.
VAUXHALL GARDENS.--The second masquerade for
the season came off on Friday in these grounds, end
although the weather was not so favourable as on the - previous occasion, was well attended by the votaries et,
pleasure. There was a good monster of the usual cha-
racters, and if there was less real wit and humour than '
might have been desirable, there was the usual average
of fun and frolic, and the usual vivacity of movement
and practical drollery. ILI addition to the dancing eh'
music, the extensive vistas and walks were more thin
usually .brilliant with lamps and devices, and there wer 6
the usual entertainments of the evening. Decorum WO
preserved, the exuberant spirits of some of the visite'
being restrained by the masters of the ceremonies,_
dissipated by the vigorous waltzing and gallopade °'
which lasted several hours, axed tamed the most ene r; getic before the termination of the ball. The supF
tables were well attended, champagne and other flux
were dispatched with great celerity and goodwill. T be
whole may be said to have gone off satisfactorily.

COAL MINES UNDER THE RIVER DEE.---There is
Select Committee of the House of Commons now gtf
ting upon the management of the Crown property
t
by the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. TO;
board is now on its trial, and it is said that some
extraordinary disclosures have been made this acs'
sion (the Committee sits with closed doors), 1,13
addition to the body of evidence embodied in tR/
report of the same Committee during the sea „
sion "
1848. It is rumoured that there are some curious
„
disclosures made as to the encroachments and usil'a
pations of two or three magnates upon the mil les ap
minerals under the estuary of the Dee, in the .eounas"
of Flint and Chester, under colour of certain inaPr;
vident grants from the Crown in the time of Ai
Stuarts ; but it is said that able lawyers put
Is widely
different construction upon those grants, and it is 08:
understood that the Crown has only to put in action
its undoubted right to these valuable 113111mm/a (c°81:
and ironstone) to get speedy possession of the! n. Tue.-
will likewise be a large amount of back profits fc•r solo;
body to refund, amounting to several hundred. thousalw
pounds. The commissioners are now prompt as they
were before tardy in asserting the Crown rig hts ; 85

THE CHURCH OF THE ARISTOCRACY.— -That 01
Church should be a mere political engine in tb,o hands
the aristocracy is just what might be expecte d from the
system of patronage, which deprives the people of to
power in the election of their pastors, and leaves them 81
the mercy of political, family, and mercenary arrange-
meets. Can we wonder at the strength of Char ch
ence in the House of Lords, when we find tits t to 54 nothing of the holders of a smaller number of p reselita" tions, the
Duke of Devonshire is patron of Livings'
Earl Fitzwilliam . 48
Dukes of Beaufort
and Rutland, each 58
Duke of Bedford...
27
Duke of Norfolk.
