SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
(From the Morning Chronicle.)

Our readers cannot have rorgotten du; case of the
widow Sarah Young, a prisoner in the county gaol of
Monmouth for contempt, in not appearing to a citation
for tithes before the Ecclesiastical Court of Llandaff.
A correspondent in the Chronicle of the 15th instant,
in a clear and conclusive communication, showed that
the proceedings in the case of \Vidow Young were in the
teeth of the Act 5 and 6 William IV., cap. 54, which
enacts that all tithe causes under 101. shall be heard •
and determined only under the powers and provisions
contained in the Acts 7 and S William 111., c. 6, and
53 Geo. 111., cap. 127. Our correspondent, who fur-
nished us with his address, declared his readiness, in
order to carry out that statute for her benefit, to contri-
bute two guineas. We received last night a communica-
tion from another gentlensan, who says—" I enclose
you a check for Si. for the widow Sarah Young, whose
case has been so feelingly alluded to by you in your
papers of the II th and 15th instant. There is no
doubt of the illegality of her imprisonment for
tithes, the Act of -sth and 6th William IV. having
taken away the right of instituting a suit in any Court
in England for tithes under the yearly value of 101."
1 The enclosure we hold for the benefit of Mrs. Sarah
Young ; but, as we do not know whether our corre-
spondent would wish his , name to appear, we merely
give his initials, " D.L." The notice which has been
taken of this case will have the effect, no doubt, of ren-
dering Ecclesiastical Courts somewhat more cautious
than they have been. If it be true, as Mr. Richards,
the gentleman who supplied us with the particulars of
the case, states, that it is a common practice in remote
parts of England to cite the occupiers of cottages, to
the Ecclesiastical Courts for small sums for tithes, ie.
order to take advantage of their ignorance, any Eccle-
siastical Court which is caught sinning in this way
ought not to be suffered to escape with impunity. The
the
poor and the ignorant ought to be protected from

LIVERPOOL COTTON;MARKET, Franay.—We continue
to have a good and r,gukr demand, and the business done
is again proportionably large. Prices of American de-
scriptions have advanc.A 2-1. per cent., particularly the
lower qualities up to fair, with a tendency to further im-
provement. Con.mon qualities of Surat are also fully id.
per cent. higher, full rates being obtained for the better
classes. Brazil and Sea Island are steady, but Eg) ptian is,
if any, less, being offered freely at the current rate.
4,500 bales of American have been taken on speculation.
The Sea Islands a, auction to-day went off steadily at
previous prices. 423 bales were offered : 290 bales sold
at 121 d. and 15A-d. The sales to-day are about 5,000 baler
of all kinds. -

We learn from good authority that 800 emigrants had
arrived at Trinidad, from the United States, during the

Windward Island Papers. We are furnished with the
Liberal and Bwbadian of Barbadoca, the former of the
Bth a:al the latter to the 14th Oc'obPr. The State of the
Island, our contemporary of the Barbadian reports most
unfavourable, both as regards the season, the absence of
talented men at the head of affairs, and the condition
of the Gilony generally.
(Port of Spain Gazettes to the 23d ult.)
The vessel that arrived this morning from St. Chris-
topher brings intelligence that the labourers in that colony
are leaving the estates by hundreds, and flocking to town
with the view of emigrating. Considerable numbers had
left Er Demerara. Private letters state that the island is
in a most deplorable state. There had been no actions
for debt entered in the Court there for these last eight
months.

EVENING EDITION.

MONEY PAID TO DISSENTING
MINISTERS-THE COLONIAL CHURCH.

(From the Scotsman.)
A return was issued a few days ago of money ps4.l
to the Dissenting Clergy of various denominLitions,
from the commencement of the various grants. It was
moved for by Lord Ashley, and intended, we suppose,
as a sot-off against the money drawn by the
meat.

Toe plan of giving bribes to the Dissenting Clergy,
under the name of" free gift," and " royal bounty," was
introduced in 1722 by that crafty minister Sir ltobere
Walpole. They were paid from the Civil List till
1f404, and afterwards from Parliamentary grants. Tio
payments amounted to 1,7001. per annum for England,.
deducting fees ; and this small sum, di.led out in )early
pittances of four or five pounds to each individual, has
lulled the consciences and tied the tongues of some
hundred preachnrs. No wonder that the English Die-
senters, clergy and laity, have been held in contempt
by statesmen of all parties.
The sums paid under this head frcm 1722 to 1840, were
as fallow:::--

From 1755 to 1804
From 1804 to 1834
Fiont 1834 to 1840

£197,032

Along with these payments made to Dissenting mi-
nisters in England, sums amounting to 75,7681. were
paid to such ministers in Ireland. Down to 1818
these payments were issued in England, but after that
period they were issued along with the following in Ir'
land :
Paid from the Civil List to non-conforming,
or Protestant Dissenting ministers in. Ireland
from 3,1 William and Mary (1692), to sth

PROTEST AN T asSOCIATLO?N.

On Thursday last tiles e ivas " another anwhithea-
tricll display of .bigotry, intolerance, and 'all tincharit,;-
hieness ! This is not our lant-;unge ; it is the exordia!
joky of one of the chief priests at the meeting of *Thrrs-
day, and, apart from the position or the Rev. Orator
who uttered it, •no one conversant with the day's pro-
ceedings would have suspected any irony in .such a de-
scription of them.

A►s a specimen of the animus of the meeting, we may
mention Mr. Stowell's denunciation of Sir Robert Peel,
and Mr. Horsfall's call for " the entire and unqualified
repeal of what is commonly called the Ernanc;pation
Act," a sentiment which was received with. vehement
and Inner-continued cheering. The following is the
style in which Sir Robert Peel was spoken of by the
Rev. Gentleman :

" If oar Protestant countryman feared. more, we
should fear less.—( Hear, hear.) If they were awake,
we should be less anxious ourselves.to be awake. It is
the torpor and the slumber of the Protestant community
that we have worst to dread. lam sick of mere party
consjvati.!,nt ; I am sick of mere political partisanship
I rwi sick of every party except the party of Christ.—
(Cheers.) 1 respect the talents of Sir Robert Peel.;
bit I have not forgotten his abandonment of his Pro-
testant ground ;. and Sir Robert Peel never can and
never might to recover Le confidence of this nation,
till he has risen out of the mire of expediency, and
planted his foot anew'on the rock of sc; iptural truth."—
(Loud applause.)
The meaning of this much applauded sentence, is,
that Sir Robert Peel neither eon nor ought to recover
public confidence until ha will consent to re-enact the
exclusive sections of the Penal Code. This he has de-
clared, that nothing shall induce him to attempt, so that
the chance of his recovering the confidence of those
whose political opinion; are formed at the feet of the
gentlemen who figured at the Amphitheatre, is small
indeed. We are glad, however, to have the Rev. Gen-

tleman's assurance, that all the efforts of himself and
his frinds, have failed to alarm their " Protestant fel-
low-countrymen," for it shows that common sense 'is not
altogether extinct, and also that howevqr much he and

. .
his friends may be disposed to degrade " scriptural
truth" by connecting it with pnlitical injustice, the great
mass of the Protestants of England have r'ea'd' their
Bibles 'n much better purpose than to accept any . such
interpretation of its meaning.—Liverpool Times.

were proposed, and a game commenced. Bieson bedis
the two friends, and becomes elevated. Game suceee,4
game, and s' ill Bleson wins ; at last, however, his for—
tune wavers, and finally deserts him. Bleson, cleaned
out, sends his watch by one of tha friends to the pawn-
broker. The friend quickly returned, bringing double
the money Bleson had expected from his pledge—a de-
licate attention, not on the part of the pawnbroker, but
of the skiiful emissary, who made sure of ultimately
gaining possession of the entire sum.
Bieson, overjoyed at his increased supply, which he
considered as an act of Providence, with renewed per-
severance determined to turn the tide of fortune in his
favour—of fortune, possibly, but of skill never. The
three friends surrounded their prey and closely secured
hint in their talons, whence they had determined never
to release him until his pockets were as empty as when
they left the tailor's hands. Placed with his back to
the light, his cards were almost as plainly visible to his
adversary as to himself, and what little mystery might re-
main was effectually cleared up by a system of telegra-
phic signals established between the friends. Thus, if Ble-
son held a good hand, a pinch of snuff, a fit of coughing,
apprised his adversary of the Lc'. Was it advisable to
play clubs ? an accomplice scratched his ear ; when
hearts were requisite, he drummed on the table ; while
the Kings, deserting the camp of Bleson, established a
kind of Congress in the hands of his adversary. Bleson,
who never so much as dreamed of foul play, would in-
fallibly have been stripped of all his savings, had not the
vengeance of heaven watched over him from a neigh-
bouring, recess in the persons of two police officers.
The muttered curses of Meson on the one side, and
on the other the joy al exclamations of his victorious op-
ponents, attracted the attention of these official gentle-
men, who, recognising these players to be old customrs,
made a descent on the party and secured the three
sharpers, who subsequently made their appearance be-
fore the Police Correctionnelle.
_ Several picks of cards found on these gentlemen
ec.
were examined by M. Lacaze, a skilful conjuror, who
greatly amused the Tribunal by proving, in open Court,
that these cards were so prepared as to ensure success to
these who are acquainted with their mysteries.
The three friends, having in vain attempted an ex-
culpaticn, were condemned to imprisonment for a term
of three years.
