A STATE CHURCH INCONSISTENT
with the NEW TESTAMENT.
This is an admirable little pamphlet, spirited in its style,
clenching in its facts, and powerful and convincing in its argu-
ments. It ought to be in the hands of every one who Mould
know the true state of the question between the people and
their State Church. The subject matter contains all—whether
Churchman or Dissenters. All who believe in Christianity
especially ought to informthemselyes sufficiently as to the right
manner in which religion ought to Le supported. The author
of the pamphlet now before us proves Dissent from the State
Church to be founded on sound principles, and justifiable by
Scripture as well as reason—urging with great powers of kn-
guage the right of every man to worship God in the way he
thinks best.—Leeds Times.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

OLD COURT.
(Before the RECORDER.)
Charles Downie, a cab-driver, was indicted for wilful
and corrupt perjury.
Mr. Clarksnn, with Mr. Bodkin, conducted the rrosecu-
tion. Mr. Prendergast appeared for the defendant.
The trial occupied the Court for several hours; but
the detail; were of a very tedious character, and the cir-
cumstances of the transaction out of which the indictment
arose are not fit for publication.
The Jury ultimately returned a verdict of Not guilty.
William Roberts, 18, was indicted for feloniously stab-
bing and wounding Mary Anne Jones, with intent to do
her some grievous bodily harm.
Mr. Ballantinc, defended the prisoner.
It appeared from the evidence that on the 26th ult. , the
prosecutrix and the prisoner were in the Cooper's Arms
public-house, Greenwich, when the prisoner, as was
alleged, without any provocation, inflicted the injury in
question, with a nail, which was picked up close to the
place where the prisoner was sitting.
The RECORDER having intimated that he did not think
the charge of cutting and wounding could be supported,
Mr. BALLANTINE said that he could not attempt to deny
that an assault had been committed, or to give any justifiea.

tion for it.
The Jury then found the prisoner guilty of an assault,
and the Recorder sentenced him to six months' imprison.

The Court adjourned at five o'clock.

LONDON:
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1841.

Lord CARDIGAN made his appearance in the
House of Peers last night.
Petitions were presented by the Duke of
RICHMOND from Dysart, complaining that the
Trustees of a certain turnpike-road were insol-
vent, and that the parish was obliged to keep it
in repair; by Lord ELLENBOROUGH from Bom-
bay, complaining of the Legislative Council for
transferring the power of granting spirit licenses
to the Chief Collector of Land Revenue; and by
Lord BROUGHAM from Heavitree, praying for
the establishment of Courts for the more easy
Recovery of Small Debts.
The Earl of CARDIGAN was called to the Bar,
and having nothing to address to their Lordships
by way of objection to the proposed proceedings,
was placed in custody of the Usher of the Black
Rod. A writ of certiorari was issued to remove the
case from the Central Criminal Court, and a re-
turn havingbeen made, the Earl of CARDIGAN was
bailed by two sureties, being bound in 5,0001.
each, and himself in 10,0001. It appears by the
statement. of Viscount DUNCANNON that sufficient
accommodation will be provided for all the Peers'
and probably, as we understand the statement,
for about two hundred and sixty spectators. On
the motion of Viscount DUNCAKNON (not Lord
SHAFTESBURY, as appeared in the Parliamentary
Report) it was moved that on the week previons
to the trial their Lordships should adjourn from
Friday, the 12th, to the Tuesday following, to
enable the preparations to be made.
The Copyhold Enfranchisement Bill was read
a second time, ands eferred to a Select Committee.
In the Common, Col. FERGUSON took his seat
for Kirkcaldy.
Several petitions were presented, and amongst
them there was one by Mr. STRUTT, from Derby,
for the abolition of the Corn-laws, which we are
glad to see, as setting a good example ; and
one by Mr. HANDLEY, from a Mr. HouGH-
TON, setting forth that there were many parts of
counties of England much nearer to some other
assize town than the county town. For example,
there is a part of Lincolnshire 50 miles from Lin-
coln and only 10 from Oakham. The petitioner
therefore prayed that such parts might be
allowed to send their prisoners to the nearest
gaol, and that the inhabitants of such place,
liable to serve as jurors, might be summoned to
the nearest assize town. We apprehend that
the proper remedy for this source of great ex-
pense and trouble is Lord BROUGHAM'S Local
Courts Bill.

Lord J. RUSSELL gave notice that he would
this day moye a resolution in refefenee to oute
papers left behind by the late Mr. RICKMAN.

TO ENGINEERS, MECHANISTS, AND OTHERS.
The purity and superior quality of the Iron made from the
Magnetic Ores of India, as well as of the Steel manufactured
from it by the natives, are generally known.
The INDIAN IRON COMPANY having obtained from
the Honourable East India Company's Madras Government
exclusive privileges of Mining, and cutting Fuel, have esta-
blished at Porto Novo, Charcoal Iron Works, for smelting these
ores, on the European plan. The ulterior processes are carried.
on at the Charcoal Iron Works, at Carmarthen.
The Iron has been tried for all purposes for which Iron of
the highest quality is required, and after severe tests it can be
affirmed to be: peculiarly strong and tough. It is naturally
somewhat redshort from the richness of the ore, but after nu-
merous trials, and improvements, this fault has been overcome,
and the Company are enabled to offer to the public a first-rate
quality of Iron, which will work well at all heats.
The quality of the Pig Iron is peculiarly adapted for Mallea-
ble Iron Castings.
All parties wko seek in the Iron which they use, the aboVe-
named qualities, are confidently requested to inspect the spe-
cimens, in various shapes, which may be seen at the offices,
where the Company are ready to receive and execute orders
without delay.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES DEPARTMENT.

By the plan exclusively developed by the 'Society, a single
defer-T(1 annuity is made, not only to answer the same object,
but to equal in amount the entire sum of all the advantages
ncretofore only obtained by the middle and industrious classes
by separate investments in Savings' Banks, Benefit Societies,
and Loan lianks.
1. A small yearly or weekly contribution* will secure the
most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is.
a week) at 20 will at 65 give the policy holder the choice of an
annuity for life of 471. 16s. 6d. : 3941. lls. in cash; or policy
without further contributions of 4661. at death.

2. Two-thirds at any time lent on deposit of policy, being a
fund always available during sickness or want of employment.
3. Two-thirds of all payments returned to representatives in
rase of premature death. _ _

mos ed, that the .Ear/ of Cardigan should be called to

appeared at the bar the custody of the Usher of the

The LORD CHANCELLOR then said, if your
Lordship has anything to address to the House the pre-
sent is a fitting oppm-tuoity so to do. If not, Usher of
the Black Rod, take the Earl of Cardigan from the bar.
The Earl of Card; gan not making any answer, retired

in custody.
The Earl of S.l-I AFTESBURY—We shall wan
your Lordship again pesently.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS

FROM THE MORNING rArEas OF TESTEEIDAT.
C H RONlCLE.—Kespecting the forged Exchequer
bill., the Allorning Post yesterday made a !weeping
charge of guilty knowledge and conspiracy, which must
include his patrons, for it is an undeniable fact—
1. That during the last shutting, the Bank of Eng-
land
advanced from 70,0001. to 80,000/. upon the spu-
rious bills ;
'2. That they sold about 8,000/. of them not re-
deemed, which portion was taken up for exsmination
by the purchasers to the Exchequer, where the whole
was imp, undc4 in consequence of which the Directors
have given a written promise to hold the purchasers
safe from ultimate loss ; and
3. That the Bank of England also received a consi-
derable amount of the spurious ball; from the subscribers
to the funding.
These arc stubborn facts. When we see that the
Government agents, the Bank of England herself,
to whose conduct in money transactions the public
are accustomed to look up with feelings of awe and
admiration, have been lenders to a large amount on
the spurious bills—when we see that the Directors
I'lave trafficked and dealt largely and frequently in
them, we cannot hesitate to say that individuals ought
not to suffer for having followed their example. If there

The arguments in this case were brought to a close to-
day.
His HONOUR said that the question to be decided in the
suit was purely a legal one, and his impression was, that
were he to decide it at present, one way or the other, it
would, in all probability, be carried before a Court of
Appeal, and the result after that delay would, most
likely .be to send that question to a Court of Law.
His Honour then, after mentioning certain matters
which should be added to the facts of the case, as they
now stood, said that if a Court were not particularly
agreed on by the parties, the question would be best re-
ferred to the Court of Common Pleas.
