LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, JULY 18, 1836.

The third reading of the. Established Church Bill comes
onto-night in the House of Commons, when two 'impor-
tant amendments are to be moved, which, as they will
greatly improve the Bill, will, we trust, receive the sup-
port of all the liberal Members. The first of these
amendments is to be moved by Mr. 'WALLACE, and
is to this effect, " that the amount of the incomes of
the dignitaries and other beneficed Clergy of the Esta-
blished Church of England and Wales be returned to
Parliament at the end of each year, commencing with
1836, and that the said incomes be subject to re-
vision at the end of every five years, and be re-
duceable proportionally, if necessary, in order to
secure a free annual income of 2001. a year to every
working clergyman belonging to the Established
Church of England and Wales, without resorting
to other national funds ; and that the amount
of the incomes of the aforesaid working cl
be also returned at the end of each
yearergy to
Parliament." If the efficiency of the Established.
Church, be the object to be attained by the Bill, +l.,nere
can be no doubt that the Honourable Me;abor for
Greenock will be supported by a great Itajority on
both sides of the House. But we 1:now too well
the Tory doctrine on this point 1.-0 anticipate their
voting for any proposition that r:ould be a substantial
improvement on the ineas"..re. The only efficiency
which they think necesrary Church is its ffi
to the e -
ciency to promote thp.:l
r own selfish purposes. If it is
efficient in affording
for the idle
and ample provision
and luxurious, scions of the aristocracy, they care for
nothing more. Talk to them of the spiritual efficiency
of the Church—represent to them the necessity of mak-
ing it a useful instrument of religious instruction—and
they laugh in yo-dr race.
Nothing c-':Po be clearer than that the working
Clergy (wliiat a satire is that phrase on the other
Clergy) ef the Church of England are the only men
who really fulfil any of the purposes for which our reli-
gior,s establishment is intended. th only
14ourers in the vineyard, yet they arse the onley men
who are not thought worthy of consideration. While
the proud Prelates and the other dignitaries, as they
are called, wallow in ease and affluence, the humble
minister of religion is unable, with all his endeavours,
to obtain the means of decent subsistence. This is a
shame? and has long been a shame; to the wealthiest
ChArch in the world. Mr. WALLACE'S plan would
do much to remove it. We earnestly hope it may
• meet the approbation of the House.
The other amendment to which we referred regards
the Church in Wales, and has for its object to pre-
vent any Clergyinan not acquainted with- the
Welsh language from being settled in Wales. We
think such a proposal so rational—so self-evident, we
may say—that we cannot anticipate any opposition
to it.

It was expected that the return of the evening tide
would bring more troops from St. Sebastian, so that,
in alt probability, General EVANS made himself
master of the town in the course of the night. This
is pure conjecture, rendered probable by the daringlde-
termination of General EVANS, and the certainty that
he would prefer risking everything to the disgrace of
being compelled to retreat before such a paltry place as
Fontarabia.
Early ova the morning of the 12th, the Carlists at-
temPte'A to set fire to Behobia, by means of an infernal
Ir-o• Chine fastened to a cart, and drawn by an ox. The
animal was then driven towards the town; but before
enterin, it exploded, so that the only persons injured
were the drivers, two of whom were killed ; but whe-
ther by the explosion of the Machine, or by shots fired
by the garrison, had not been ascertained.
The accounts from the Asturias are, upon the
whole, unfavourable to the cause of the QUEEN. It
is said that CORDOVA has dispatched 20,000 men in
pursuit of GOMEZ, who had reached Orris on the 2d.
The Paris Papers contain no domestic news of
importance. Another official notice has appeared in
the Moniteur, forbidding the transmission of military
stores into Spain, without the sanction of the Minister
of the Interior. The KING remains at Neuilly. Great
preparations are on foot for the celebration of the
" three glorious days." The KING has signi-
fied his determination to be present, notwith-
standing the remonstrances of his Ministers. We
sincerely trust that he will be allowed to be pre-
sent, with as much assurance of personal safety
as if he were the idol of his people. If France
desire to get rid of her KING, she is too powerful, too
magnanimous, to stand indebted for the act to the
dagger of a vile and detestable assassin.
After all, what do these attempts amount to, but
that the system of coercion recommended by the
leaders of the Doctrine, and adopted by Lours
PHILIPPE, has completely failed. What, then, re-
mains but to prefer lenient measures ? The inutility
of seventy has been amply demonstrated ; let us then
implore the KING for his own sake—for the sake of
his family and of France—to try the effect of a Con-
ciliatory:policy. The guillotine has failed—the dun-
aeon has failed—expatriation for life has failed; why
then not try the effect of an amnesty, and an abolition
of the laws for fettering the public Press P
