CHARGE of the BISHOP of LIMERICK.

On Thursday se'nnight the LORD BISHOP of

MERICK held his Annual Visitation at the Cathedral, on

which occasion the Rev. John Fitzgerald, lately presented to
the Prebend of Tullybracky, preached a sermon, from the

words—" Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the
Flock over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers,•to

feed the Church of Gon,which he hath purchased with his Own
blood."—Acts, c. xx. v. 28.

After which the Lord Bishop addressed the Clergy, and,
after stating the importance of establishing Schools for the
education of the lower classes, his Lordship adverted to the
late Act, enabling the Clergy to grant leases of their tithes
for a term of years, and recommended to the Clergy to
show their readiness to give effect to it, by notifying that
they wished to receive proposals from such persons as are
competent to take leases from them, and closing with such
proposals, when a fair value should be offered. lie then
called the attention of the Clergy to the description given
them in a late pamphlet, entitled, " Thonghts on the Edu-
cation of the Peasantry of Ireland," for the purpose of
warning them of the circumstances in their conduct which
had been made the subject of animadversion, and at the same
time showing them in what manner they might be of service to
their Roman Catholic parishioners, without giving offence, in
which this pamphlet was particularly well calculated to be their
guide, being evidently written by -a Roman Catholic, who had
considered the subject upon which he wrote with deep atten-
tion. The passages which concerned the conduct of the
Clergy related to their being—involved too much in

the business and pursuits of country gentlemen, com-
plimenting them upon their conduct as such, but at the
same time strongly noticing the loss of clerical character which
they sustained in the eyes of the people, and particularly of the
Roman Catholics ; and to illustrate this, the author of the
pamphlet states it as his opinion, that if a Roman Catholic
Priest should, in any case, lose the confidence of his parishioners
by acting in a manner derogatory to his character, those pa-
rishioners would never turn to the Protestant Priest for reli-
gious consolation—not from Sectarian prejudice, which, he
says, enters but for little into the question—but because the
Protestant Clergyman has not upon him, in their eyes, the

marks of a clerical character—because he possesses in their
eyes nothing more than the character of a well-bred, humane,
and charitable country gentleman.

This, the Bishop said, should rouse them to the most active
exertions, to show that they felt the clerical character to be that
which they were strictly bound to maintain; to prove that when
they interfered in secular business, it was from necessity and
not from choice, that they preferred their professional duties
to all other ; and his Lordship concluded this part of his charge
by exhorting them to take care to show in their conduct all the
marks of their important vocation, and none other ; tha:: they
should be seen occupied wholly with, and devoted exclusively to,
the ministration of their office; and should have no other pur-
suit, no other employment.
On the subject of attention to their Roman Catholic parish-
ioners, his Lordship referred to the same pamphlet, in which
the author says, " We have known where the Protestant Cler-
gyman would seek in his cottage, him, whose religious profes-
sion did not permit him to attand at Church, and having won
his good will by a thousand acts-of kindness and good neigh-
bourhood, for which the casualties of life are ever making room,
would breathe the spirit and cultivate the feelings, and instil
the doctrines, which are not of the Church of England, or of
the Church of Rome particularly, but of the Church of Christ."
On the subject of Education, the Bishop dwelt with emphasis
on a passage, which we believe we give correctly, taken from the
same writer—" It is every where m their (the Clergy of the
Church of England) power to promote education. 1I he mere
education of letters will do good—it will break the soil, and pre-
pare it for future cultivation. But more than this might be done.
Let them have the written word of Gon. This is new to
them, and will do much of itself. You will (adds the pamphlet
referred to) be opposed, but not always, and you will succeed
if you persevere. Do this, and then do not expect an instan-
taneous result. Be patient, and be satisfied that the good
effects are certain, that they will come in due time,_ and give
peace to the country, security to property,' and stability to the
foundation of society."
After delivering the charge, his Lordship examined into the
state of every parish, and adjourned the visitation to the 16th
of October, on which day the Clergy, who were not present on
Thursday, are required to attend.—( Irish Paper.)

PETERSFIELD, OCT. 4.—The streets of this
Borough were lighted with public lamps for the
first time, this night. The expences incurred in
erecting them are discharged by a voluntary sub-
scription of the inhabitants. This improvement
and convenience is to be annually supported in
the same manner. The " betty rung of their own
accord" on the occasion, and the Lamplighter was
chaired through the suburbs of this ancient and
venerable place amid the plaudits of a mob.

NEWCASTLE•UPOIi-T YNE.----On Monday last
Alderman ROBERT BELL, Esq. was elected Mayor
of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and EDWARD JOHN-
SON, Esq. Sheriff. The Ex-Sheriff, ALFRED
HALL, Esq., according to ancient usage, after-
wards entertained the new Civic Officers and
the other members of the body corporate, and a
large party of friends, at DODSWORTH'S, the
Queen's Head Inn. A little after six o'clock 75
Gentlemen sat down to a truly elegant dinner.
Turtle and Venison were in ample supply, as
well as a variety of fine flavoured wines. The
offerings of Pomona were also abundant ; for we
have seldom seen a handsomer desert than what
covered the table when the cloth was drawn.
The dinner, &c. was served up in Mr. DODS..
WORTH'S usual excellent style, and did great
credit to the hotel. The worthy donor of the
feast, who of course filled the Chair, gave the
greatest satisfaction by his presidential tact, and
by his very pleasing and affable demeanour. New-
castle, in fact, has perhaps never had a more
liberal or a more public-spirited Sheriff than, the
gentleman whose Shrievalty has just. expired.
And it is but a proper homage to truth to state,
that, in every respect, the duties of his office
have been performed in a way-that will long
cause his name to be mentioned with respect, as
well by the members of the Corporation, as by
the gentry and inhabitants of the town generally.
Extract of a letter dated Bahia, July 30

During the last month the European troops
have been impressing every slave they could find,
to work gratis, and thus ruining numbers of
poor families, in digging ditches and throwing
up entrenchments, as a protection against an at-
tack they have been hourly looking for from the
native troops, assembled in different parts of
the interior, and expecting to be assisted by a
squadron and forces from Rio, which, up to the
present moment, have not made their appearance.
Vessels have been armed in this port and hastily
sent on the track to endeavour if possible to in-
tercept them. No sales of any description but
in provisions can be effected, and few or no pay-
ments respected even for bills. Houses in con-
sequence which have immense sums outstanding
have not weekly receipts of 501. Every family,
in the expectation of active war in the city, is
laying in several months' provisions,"
