THE 11-1514, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY DO, 1840.

of the 22d of November, and another on the evening 1
of the 3d
_of December. Several skirmishes and ren-
contres, of course, diversified the intermediate time,
and brought portions of the antagonistic lines here
and there into direct opposition ; but on the two dates
before specified there appears to have been rather
severe fighting, in which almost the whole of the
opposing ranks, more or less, participated.
Having received peremptory instructions from the
Commander•in-Chief not to attempt any movement
whatever against the enemy until his arrival, the
Generals of division maintained a strictly defensive
attitude up to the 20th of November, when Lord
GOUGES reached Newa Walla, having proceeded thi-
ther with the utmost rapidity from Lahore and Ravee.
In compliance with a resolution come to on the fol-
lowing afternoon, at a conference between Brigadier
CAMPBELL and his Excellency, operations were
commenced with the dawn of the 22d of No-
vember. Hereupon seems to have com-
menced a series of blunders, arising from insuffi-
ciency or, may be, inaccuracy of information, and
which has been fraught with disastrous conse-
quences to many of our gallant compatriots. First,
it was imagined that the enemy were so situated on
the left bank of the Chenab that the British army
would have an opportunity to drive them across the
river, and, in so doing, to throw their ranks into
confusion : it was discovered, however, on the English
forces clearing Ramnuggur, that the Seikhs were en•
camped on the right bank, in a position
of admirable security. Then an endeavour was
made, rather too precipitately, to discover
the real strength of the Seikh batteries by
opening on them some of the guns of our artillery—
when the 3d brigade found itself embedded in such
heavy sand that it was compelled to abandon one of
the guns on receiving orders to limber up and retire.
Then, again, our brave cavalry was exposed to a fire
so galling and withering that it was compelled to seek
shelter behind a tope of trees until the fury of their
antagonists had in some degree subsided. Shortly
afterwards, on perceiving some of the rebel soldiers
lower down the river on the left bank of the Chenab,
the 3d and 14th Light Dragoons were ordered to
effect their dislodgement. Here it was that the
principal calamity of the day carried death to
several of our bravest countrymen. By a cunning
movement on the part of the Seikh cavalry, the dra-
goons were induced to charge down upon them until
they were suddenly brought up by a deep watercourse
at the entrance of a nullah or ravine, from a
blighting discharge which tore up the ranks of the 31 and
14th from a body of matchlockmen lying in ambus-
cade. The contrivance was deplorably successful.
Nearly one hundred of the dragoons were brought
down either killed or wounded. Brigadier-General
CURETON—one of the finest soldiers, and one of the
most distinguished officers in the British army—was
shot through the heart. Col. HAvELocK—the very im-
personation of gallantry—received a severe wound in
his right hand, had his left leg and his left arm nearly
severed from his body, and was left dead upon the
field. Eleven of his courageous men fell by his
side, sword in hand, and are said to have been subse-
quently decapitated by the insurgents. Captain
AVINIABoN is said to have since died from his wounds,
according to the newspapers of Calcutta; and a
similar report as to the fate of Ensign HARDINGE, of
the 3',/th Native Infantry, is contained in a letter
received from Umritsir. Captain HoLmEs, of the
12th Irregular Cavalry, is described as having
been shot through the breast while en-
deavouring to carry off the body of
the noble-hearted CURETON. Captain RYLEY
received a spent ball in his leg. Lieutenant-Colonel
ALEXANDER had his right arm so grievously mangled
as to render amputation necessary. Captain Crux
lost a hand. Flesh wounds were given to Captain
CAUTLY and Captain SCUDAMORE ; while Captain
FITZGERALD was suffering from no less than five dif-
ferent wounds from swordcuts mostly about his neck
and head. In addition to these there are reported to
be no less than one hundred of the rank and file
among the killed and wounded in this single adven-
ture against the matchlockmen in the ravine. After
thirty-five minutes fighting, the troops were moved
to their new encamping ground in advance of Ram-
nuggur, where they continued during the 23d un-
molested.

and the Bishop, mindful of the golden rule, "deter
di gniori," conferred it upon the most deserving—
upon one who, by hi& past ,services and labours,
had earned for himself the otium cum di gnitate during
his future life. The observations which Mr. J. J.
WRIGHT offered thereon in the course of his able and
impressive address, are worthy of the most serious
and attentive consideration. That gentleman has
told us in burning words and eloquent language how
patronage should be bestowed, and of the true duty of
a Christian Bishop. He said :
"It is now, sir, upwards of twenty years since, as ayoung
man, unknown to all, you became curate of this parish,
and here commenced your labours as a minister of the
Gospel—an occupation the most glorious that can oc-
cupy the capacities of the human mind. At that early
period, sir, there was observed in your conduct a gravity
of deportment, a gentleness of spirit, a sincerity of heart,
a Christian meekness, an exemplary diligence, and a
marked piety, that created a growing esteem for your
person and a manifest desireidr your ministry. These
personal excellences, combineiiievith the zealous and un-
wearied manner in which pup co-operated with that
excellent Christian minister youe pred( cessor, in all his
many works of public usefulneskand active benevolence—
a Christian minister, whose name not only stands asso-
ciated, with the building in which we are now assembled,
but whose name lives imperishably in the grateful re-
collection of the people of Sunderland—induced the in-
habitants, when deprived of his valuable services by his
early and lamented death, to present to the Bishop of
this diocese a memorial, signed by nearly three thou-
sand householders, calling upon his Lordship to present
you to the rectory of Sunderland. The same irresistible
influence of your character that dictated that memorial
impelled the Bishop to accede to that just, though some-
what unusual request, and you became the rector of
this, one of the most important parishes in the diocese
of Durham."

After alluding, at considerable length, to the
exemplary conduct of the Rev. Gentleman during the
time that he officiated as rector of Sunderland, and
his subsequent promotion to the more lucrative, but
less laborious, duties of the rectory of Winston, the
eloquent speaker thus continued—
" We rejoice at your preferment, and I am glad also
to be enabled to say, that we rejoice in the appointment
of your successor, as gratifying Instances of the righte-
ous distribution of Church patronage. Would to God
that patronage was always so bestowed in just reward to
the hardworking and deserving clergy. Especially those
who have to sustain their offices in large towns, or in
public acknowledgment of great talents, commanding
eloquence, or ministerial success. Would to God that
such instances were not, as they unfortunately are, too
remarkable for their singularity. And when they do
occur, would to God that they were not confined, as
they generally are, to the smaller livings, where there is
most of the work and least of the pay, but extended to
the richer benefices of the country—which would put
increased means of doing good into the hands of the tried
and well-disposed Christian pastor. If such were the
case happy would it be for the Church, cheering for the
clergy, and delightful for the people. Those who by
the constitution of the Church are entrusted with the
bestowal of the patronage that belongs to it, and who
ard responsible to God, to the Church, and to the country
for the proper disposal of it, and who dispense that
patronage from any other motive, or for the attainment
of any other object, I do not hesitate to say are baneful
demolishers of the beautiful fabric of the Church, and
sacrilegious violators of ono of the most sacred trusts
that Providence places in the hands of man. We hope,
sir, to live to see the day when a better state of things
will exist, and when the Church thin purified and re-
formed from within can bid defiance to all enemies from
without."

It is impossible not to coincide to the fullest extent
with these admirable observations. They recal for-
cibly to our minds a somewhat similar tribute of
affectionate respect and admiration, but which was
unfortunately bestowed on a very different occasion•
In the month of June, 1847, a deputation waited
upon the Rev. Dr. EMERTON, of Han well, to present
him with a magnificent piece of plate, and (still
more acceptable) the silver trowel used by the
late respected rector, Dr. WALMSLEY, in laying the
foundation-stone of the new church. These valuable
gifts were offered as acknowledgments of the advan-
tages which the parish of Hanwell had derived from
Dr. EMERTON'S ministry during the twelve years he
acted as curate thereof. It was not, however, on his
promotion to a more valuable preferment, or on re-
ceiving the rewards due to his unceasing and impor-
tant labours, that Dr. EMERTON was thus honoured.
Far, very far, different indeed were the circum-
stances. From the hour of his appointment as curate
of the parish there was observed in his conduct a
" gravity of deportment, gentleness of spirit, sincerity
of heart, Christian meekness, exemplary diligence,
and marked piety, that created a growing esteem for
, his person, and a marked desire for his ministry." In
these important respects there was no distinction
between the cases. In like manner, his name stood
associated with the sacred edifice in which the words of
life were uttered to the congregation, and which
edifice would not have been erected but for the un-
wearied exertions and disinterested liberality of Dr.
EMERTON, who, an humble curate, with a salary of
1001. per annum, contributed a sum double that which
was obtained from the diocesan, notwithstanding the
princely revenues of his see. And yet from that
church was Dr. EMERTON ejected, and left without
church preferment or the cure of souls, after twelve
years of services such as those to which we have al-
luded, and which obtained the unanimous approbation
of his parishioners and of all those with whom he was
brought into communication during the course of his
ministry—nay, that of the very Bishop himself, who,
a few short weeks before he evicted Dr. EMERTON
from his curacy, and deprived him of his
humble pittance—a pittance far too small
for an educated gentleman—used these re-
markable words—" being assured that you will
discharge your duty as zealously and faithfully as
you have done in the assistant curacy of Han well,"
thus indicating how fully he participated in the feel-
ings of the parishioners ; and yet one day after the
burial of the deceased rector, that very Bishop ten-
dered the living to the eldest son of a Baronet, a
gentleman of large fortune and considerable influence,
to whom the pecuniary emoluments of the office
could be a matter of little moment, and thus severed
the connexion that had so long and so happily existed
between the zealous and faithful assistant-curate and
his grateful and affectionate congregation.

The encounter which subsequently took place on
the 3d of December, between the armies of Lord
GOUGH and the Raja &JERE SINGH, appears to have
terminated rather more advantageously for the Eu-
ropeans. Our loss upon the latter occasion seems to
have scarcely exceeded forty men, and yet the result
of the engagement was such that before daybreak, on
the 4th, the whole Seikh multitude was in full re-
treat, after having either concealed or carried away
their artillery, and exploded their magazines. Sub-
sequently the cavalry, under THACKWELL, and
the Lancers (9th), and Dragoons (14th), under
GILBERT, were dispatched in pursuit. Unless these
two officers are enabled to come up with the enemy,
and bring them at once to a decisive encounter, there
is considerable danger that &ÜBE SINGH will find it
by no means difficult to join his forces to those of his
father, CHUTTUR SINGH, in which event the difficul-
ties of their subjugation would, of course, be, propor-
tionately enhanced. Whatever may be the result of
the last movements of the belligerents, the manoeuvre of
the Seikh commander is sufficiently apparent, namely
an effort to lure the British army further and further
into the Punjaub, and then to harass atd decimate
the ranks of the Europeans by the warfare of Asiatic
Guerillas. To prevent this disastrous prolongation of
the war will require all the military skill and deter-
mination of the Commander-in-Chief ; but for the
conquest of these difficulties be possesses, we are
satisfied, ample capacity.

A respected provincial contemporary, the Sumder-
land Times, in a recent number, contains an account
of the presentation of a magnificent piece of plate to
the Rev. W. WEBB (late rector and curate of
the parish of Sunderland), as a tribute of respect
and admiration for his exemplary character, and of
the high sense entertained by his former parishioners
of the great value of his ministrations, extending over
a period of twenty years, as curate and rector. Such
a testimonial is alike honourable to the donors and to
the recepient. It affords the strongest evidence that
the good seed had not fallen in atony places or among
thorns, that the zeal and energy of the clerical
labourer had not been wasted or misapplied. It is at

hhi,',?oe—a.s.t, and on whose behalf his energies

esteem is tendered on the well-merited promotion of
its object—when one of exalted station has properly
exercised his high privilege, and worthily bestowed
the patronage with which he had been entrusted, not
for his own personal gratification, or because the ap-
plicant was possessed of powerful friends or wealthy
connexions, but for the benefit of the church of which
he himself was an appointed dignitary.
There is nothing of more vital importance to the
Church of England than the impartial and conscien-
tious exercise of the patronage entrusted to its prelates.
It may, perhaps, be considered unreasonable to
expect much from private patrons. The livings in
their gifts are too frequently granted from purely
primogeniture,faw
personal motives. It may be to provide for younger
children,

are quartered on the public purse in one shape or
mark of private friendship or
another—it may be as a
esteem, or even occasionally for a pecuniary consi-
deration. That such things are not only possible,
but thlt they are of daily occurrence, is deeply to he
lamented, and highly prejudicial to the best interests
of the Church. In such cases its worst enemies are
to be found among its own children, who abuse their
powers, and direct more formidable blows against
the venerable fabric than could possibly be inflicted
by its most determined opponents. It is, however,
worse, a thousand times worse, when its very
Bishops and dignitaries, forgetful of their sacred
obligations, disregard the strongest professional
claims, and confer appointments that cannot be justi-
fied on any ground of principle or policy.
Such was happily not the case on the occasion to
which we are alluding. Mr. WEBB received the well-
merited reward of his indefatigable exertions for more
than twenty years. A richer preferment fell vacant,

What we have above stated would alone be suffi-
cient to excite a feeling of deep disappointment and
concern in the public mind, to induce every well-
wisher of the Church to deplore that such pre-
eminent claims should be thus cavalierly and
summarily disposed of; but there is another
circumstance that should not be lost sight of, that
materially enhances the painful character of the
transaction. Some years previously the perpetual
curacy of the parish of New Brentford became vacant.
It was in the gift of Dr. WALMSLEY, the rector of
Hanwell, who, with a due appreciation of the in-
valuable services of his curate, placed the patronage
at the disposal of Dr. EMERTON, who might have
presented himself thereto. The Bishop, however,
interposed, and raised sundry objections and difficul-.
ties. The result was that Dr. EMERTON surrendered
his patronage into the hands of his Lordship, and
allowed him to nominate three persons, one of whom
was to be selected. This disinterested conduct might
surely have had some effect on a generous mind,
For four years the emoluments of 3001. per annum
were enjoyed by the Bishop's nominee, while Dr
EMERTON, who might, had he pleased, have taken it•
for himself, continued his labour of love for the humble
stipend of 1001. a year.
Most heartily do we commend the perusal of Mr.
WRIGHT'S admirable speech to the Right Rev. Pre-
late ; we trust that he will read, mark, and inwardly
digest its contents, and that he may on future occa-
sions distribute his patronage with greater discretion ;
that he may not again inflict "a heavy blow and
great discouragement" on the Church by law estab-
lished, or do an act which has been well described in
an address to Dr. EMERTON as a "disappointment
worthy of public comment and reproach, calculated to
bring the church discipline into question, and ulti-
mately to call for Legislative interference on the
subject."

There is one consolation, and one only, to be derived
from the Bishop's conduct. By not obtaining the pre-
ferment, Dr. EMERTON has been enabled to concen-

trate all his energies for the benefit of the pupils of
the Hanwell Collegiate School, of which he is the
efficient Principal, a circumstance of paramount
importance to the rising generation and to the
parents and guardians of those confided to his charge.

It is always gratifying to find that the shareholders
of a public company entertain a proper sense of the
services of those who hive by their consummate
skill, untiring zeal, unwearied activity, and unerring
judgment, succeeded in creating a valuable property
for the benefit of such shareholders, and therefore it
is that we have read with great interest the account
of the proceedings at a pnblic dinner given by
the shareholders in the Richmond Railway,
last evening, to WILLIAM CHADWICK, Esq., at the

London Tavern, on which loccasion a mapificent tary arrangement whereby they must receive the word

services which Mr. CHADWICK has rendered to the by the hank since the month of May, 1848, amounts
to 72.000,000, and that the sum total, including
previous grants, amount to nearly 180,000,000. By
opening a credit the State may still employ 14,500,000
in the bank, and when this is exhausted the sum total
of all the sums advanced to the State will amount to
nearly 195,000,000.
The discount business of the bank amounted last
year to 429,500,000 guilders on above 65,000 stock.
The loans amounted to above 164,500,000 in mort-
gages, and the advances in prolongation of the same
to 72,000,000. In the deposit department there was
at the end of December, 1848, a balance of above
87,000,000. The current business had a circulation
of 121,000,000, and the total transactions of the
bank for the year 1848 amounted to above
2,335,000,000 guilders.

company, it must be confessed that never was
an honourable testimonial more honourably earned
or more honourably bestowed. Had it not ✓been for
the exertions of Mr. CHADWICK the Richmond Rail-
way would never have existed. It was owing to
his unwearied perseverance, unerring tact, and ex-
cellent temper, that the Bill was safely carried
through the perils of Parliament. Having thus called
it into existence, he did not " leave his work but
half complete." He saw at a glance that it
would be infinitely more to the advantage of
the shareholders to dispose of their line to a large
company than to work it themselves. By his argu-
ments he convinced his brother shareholders of the
correctness of his views, and he had the satisfaction,
in consequence of the purchase of the Richmond
Railway by the South Western Company, of being
enabled to return to the proprietors of the Richmond
line the whole of their deposits, with the addition of
a very large premium. Services such as these
have never before been rendered by any railway di-
rector to his brother shareholders, and therefore it is
right and fitting that such extraordinary services
should be acknowledged in an extraordinary manner,
a manner alike honourable to all the parties con-
cerned.

PRUSSIA.

The Minister, Count BRANDENBURG, Will, it is
said, he returned to the first Chamber by the Electors
of Schweidnitz.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
It is thought by many that M. BOULAY DE LA
MreaTnE, who is a Bonapartist, will be chosen as
Vice-President by the Assembly, in preference to M.
VIVIEN, who at first was considered to be the favou-
rite candidate. The Club of the Institute and that of
the Palais .National have determined to support M.
BOULAY DE LA MEURTIIE. _ _

Commodore PARKER, of the United States Navy,
his arrived at Berlin, en route for Fraulifort, where
he will receive a commission to superintend the
formation of a German fleet.

There have been heavy falls of snow, and the pas-
sage of the Rhine, from Cologne to Deutz, has been
stopped.

At the close of the sitting of the National Assembly
on Thursday the report of the Committee on the
demand of the Minister of Justice relative to the
trial of the "Vincennes prisoners, was presented. It
recommends the adoption of the Minister's proposi-
tion, and further recommends that the debate on the
project of law, settling the conditions of the trial to
take place at Bourges, be had on Saturday, which
was agreed to.

A proposition to discuss a project of amnesty, by
M. LEGRINGE, was rejected.
At the sitting of the Assembly yesterday the project
of law introduced Thursday, with respect to the salary
to be settled on the Vice-President of the Republic,
was brought under discussion. The Committee on
the Bill had recommended that the salary should be
fixed at 60,000 francs per annum. M. ANTHONY
TOURET moved as an amendment that it should be
fixed at 40,000 f.
After a short discussion, the Assembly divided,
when the salary of 60,000 f. was rejected by a
majority of 472 votes to 270. M. ANTHONY TOURET'S
amendment met with a similar fate. M. CBARASSIER
then moved that the salary be fixed at 48,000 f.,
which is the salary of the President of the National
Assembly ; and his proposition was, after a short dis-
cussion, agreed to by a majority of 516 votes to 233.
The remaining business was of no public interest.
At a conference of the members of the National
Assembly, held yesterday, it was determined to urge
on the Ministry the necessity of immediately intro-
ducing a law for closing the clubs. MM. LA-
MARTINE, DUFAURE, MONTALAMBERT, THIERS, and
Mor.E will support such a measure. M. EMILE DE
GIRARDIN is opposed to, and, in the columna_of the
Presse, insists that liberty should be given to the
clubs to meet openly.
The Constitutionnel has the following on the affairs
of Italy :
" The Marquis Ricci is daily expected in Paris en
route to Brussels, where he is to act as plenipotentiary
from the King of Sardinia in the approaching confer-
ences. Count d'Antioch will accompany him as a
councillor of legation.
" According to accounts from our correspondent at
Turin, there is much talk in the diplomatic circles in
that city, of a proposition made by the Queen of Spain to
open in one of the cities on the shores of the Mediterra-
nean, special conferences for the settlement of the affairs
of Rome. The Sardinian Cabinet is said to have replied,
that it wished to leave all the affairs of Italy to the con-
ferences at Brussels. In rejecting this proposition of the
Spanish Cabinet, the Sardinian Government considered
it its duty to protest to all the Cabinets of Europe against
the intention of Spain to send a squadron to Gaeta.
" This conduct on the part of the Sardinian Govern-
ment is in perfect accordance with the views of the Pope
himself, who is opposed to any foreign armed interven-
tion in the Roman States. Pius IX. reckons with more
confidence on the good relations which have never
ceased to exist between him and King Charles Albert.
The confidence which Italy feels in the latter Prince is,
adds our correspondent, a powerful means entirely at
the disposal of his Holiness to facilitate the arrange-•
went to be brought about between the Pope and the
well-thinking part of the population of the states of the
Church. _ _

FRANKFORT.

The debate on the question of the Chief of the
Empire was resumed in the German Parliament on
the 1S th, and again adjourned.

" It is our ardent hope," adds the Constitutionnel, in
reasoning on the above facts, " that the difficulties of
the Roman question may be smoothed down by the
efforts of the reason and the enlightened patriotism of
the Italians themselves. Two circumstances tend to
inspire us with this hope. Every one must have
remarked that the anarchical movements in Italy
have not been so simultaneous as those electricl commo•
tions generally are where the people are led to the object
in view by the instinct of their patriotism. Rome, the
city of foreigners, has been in insurrection, whilst Bo-
logna, the hotbed of liberalism in the Pontifical States,
opposed resistance to it. We are as yet ignorant what
the result of the elections for the Constituent Assembly
will be ; but we may mention a fact which leads us to
appeal to the reason of Italy herself. The Pinelli
Ministry, presided over by the brave General
Perone, has been overthrown by the immediate war
party. The last elections which took place in Pied-
mont led to the return of candidates of the
moderate party, and M. Gioberti follows the line or
policy of his predecessors. On attaining power, he mea-
sured the extent of his responsibility, and felt the
weight of the national interest. In Tuscany the same
phenomenon has been witnessed. The first condition
for Italy to acquire the plenitude of her nationality is
for her to know bow to govern herself. The right to
moral respect facilitates and commands the assistance
and disinterested efforts of friendly nations. In the
midst of the attempts which may be made against the
cause of order—against European liberty and interests
—the French Government cannot remain indifferent
spectators, and the fitting out of the fleet at Toulon is a
measure as necessary as was the formation of the army
of the Alps. The last acts of Radetzky have certainly
shown some little contempt for ideas of conciliation;
but there is nothing to lead to the belief that it will be
abandoned. The interest of France is the maintenance
of peace; her policy is that of conciliation; but she
must remain on her guard, and be prepared for any
eventuality."
The Paine says :—" M. DE ROTHSCHILD has
gone to Frankfort. It is thought that this journey
is connected with the realisation of the Austrian
loan. It is also known that a great part of that loan
is already tendered for by the firm of M. STIEGLITZ,
bankers to the Court of St. Petersburgh, a firm which
in affairs of this kind passes for representing the Rus-
sian Government itself."

the 24th of October letters from London had rather de-
pressed the produce markets.
The quantity of bullion received from abroad con-
tinues large. Every private ship from distant parts
seems to bring a little, and the exports of silver to the
Continent are much less than they were. About 10,000
oz. have been sent this week to Belgium, but this is a
small amount compared to what was sent away a few
weeks since on account of the loan to the Bank
of Vienna.
Cape of Good Hope papers of Dec. 2, being a week
r than those received yesterday, have come to hand.
They furnish no later news from the frontier, and, as
befot e, the convict question engrossed almost exclusive
attention.
The Continental papers bring no news of prominent
intereet. The Money Markete abroad continue easy.
The funds oscillate but little. Consols have ranged
from 814. to 90 for money and time. Exchequer-bills
(June) are 475. premium. The New Three-and. a-
Quarter per Cents. have been 904 to 91. Bank Stock is
worth 1885 to 190, and India Stock has been at 240 to
245, rather a wide range. India Bonds are 465. to 475.
premium.
The Foreign Securities are quieter. Spanish Five per
Cents. 151 4; and the Three per Cents. 288 4. Peruvian
Stock has been at 48 to 49. Mexican Bonds are 268 4.
Dutch Four per Cents. have realised 78 to 78k, and
Russian 103 to 105.
In Railway Shares there has been a good deal doing
again to-day, but Caledonian and Great Northern are not
quite so good. The other lines are generally at about
previous rates.
