THE CHURCH MILITANT!

YORK CATHEDRAL. illrr
On Tuesday, at noon, the visitation was contilLm the
Ecclesiastical Court at York Cathedral, before Dr. nimore,
the Archbishop's Commissary.
• Mr. Blanshard appeared as advocate for Mr. Dixon, to sup-
port the charge of simony which had been preferred by that
gentleman against the Dean.
The Coin missAltY, after some remarks proceeded to read
certain correspondence, but was frequently interrupted by the
Dean. After much personal altercation, however, Dr. Philli-
more persisted in reading the conclusion of a letter (which was
to the effect that the meeting ought to have been postponed till
May, and that he, the Dean, should feel flattered either by a
public or private communication from him), amidst shouts of
" Shame, shame," from the Dean.
Dr. PHILLIMORE—A dignitary of the Church to interrupt
in this manner
The DEAN—I forbid you to read my letters. This mode
of proceeding is contrary to justice, honour, and honesty, and
I won't submit to it.—(Applause.) Why did you not sent a
citation last time, as you have done now? 'Why did you not
gize me notice of the time of meting? All this is miserably
dirty work.
Dr. Pk'''. LIMORE—Is this language to address to a Court?
The DEAN—Yes ; this is the language I use. You have
treated me unhandsomely ; everything has been done in the
most shabby way. I object to your jurisdiction.
A great deal of similar proceeding followed, the Dean de-
claring that he would not let business go on until he had
delivered his speech, either to the Chapter or to the public,
and the Commissary insisting that he ought first to finish
his
speech, and then that the charge ought to be proceeded with.
wo or three members of the Chapter begged of the Dean, for
the sake of the interest of the Church, for the sake of religion,
and for the sake of everything dear to them, not to interrupt
further, but to allow business to proceed. T.lfvean put in a
protest against the proceedings, and insisted thate he was master
there, and ought to speak first. The affairendedoifneitheecDoeuanrt

New Poor-Bill, observes as follows :—" There can be no ques •
Lion that many humane amendments might be made, xm-re
especially in -the out-door and relief clauses. The public will
not—cannot bear them. They are cruel, inhuman, and im-
practicable; and further, they prevent the exercise of Judg-

The Policies are Indefeasible and Indisputable, unless they
have been obtained by fraudulent misrepresentations.
Any important mistake, or even an unintentional omission,
in communicating information, in answer to the numerous
questions put by other Companies, has the effect of annulling
the policy, and forfeiting the premiums—thus rendering it in
general a matter of uncertainty (until the claim comes to be
made) whether the policy be of any value. The London,
Edinburgh, and Dublin Assurance Company, determined to
obviate whas they consider injustice to the assured, satisfy
themselves upon the various questions proposed by them before
they enter into the contract of assurance, and frame their po.
licies in such terms as to preclude all future questions as to
their validity, and thus render them indefeasible and indisput-
able cto,uments of future debt against the Company. Tha po-
licies of this Company may, therefore, be regarded as certain
available future funds, and as unimpcachab e and negotiable
documents for pecuniary transactions.
One-half of the Premiums may remain Unpaid for Seven
Years, affording a greater facility for Loan Transactions and
Family Provisions than any other plan which has been sug-
gested—allowing a Policy to be dropped at one-half of the
usual sacrifice—and entitling the Assured at a future period,
when loss of health may prevent him from obtaining a New
A,suranee, to continue a Policy for double the amount of the
sum for which lie has paid Premiums.
Parties may be assured either upon the participating or non-

EDINBURGH CABINET LIBRARY.

VOLS. 29, 30, 31. Oliver and Boyd, Edinburgh, 1841.
These volumes comprise a history of Italy and
the Italian Islands from the earliest ages to the
present time, and are the production of Mr.
Spalding, Professor of Rhetoric in the University
of Edinburgh. This gentleman has accomplished
a difficult task with considerable ability ; his
narrative is easy and flowing; and it is manifest
in every chapter of his history that he has spared
neither pains nor research. The result is a tem-
perate and impartial work, which may vie with
the best of its kind in modern historical litera-
ture. We are glad to hear of the increasing po-
pularity of the " Edinburgh Cabinet Library,"
for it is carried on with spirit, and the subjects
discussed are in general well chosen.

THE NEW SUSPENSION BRIDGE AT INN-.
GERFORD MARKET.—On Thursday numbers of excavators,
and other workmen were busily engaged landing from on
board several large barges, immense numbers of planks
and wooden piles, at Hungerford-market, which are to be
used for the immediate commencement of forming the
grand abutment. On the north shore of the river, pre-
cisely opposite the entrance into fiurgerford-matket, a
large and high wooden hoard is built around where the
works are to be carried on, the paving stones removed,
and the earth excavated to the depth of several feet;
bricklayers are
engaged building blacksmiths' shops, for
the purpose of making the necessary iron work for the
workmen engaged, shoeing the wooden piles, and other
necessary works. Similar preparations are to be imme-
diately commenced on the Lambeth side of the river, for
the purpose of erecting the bridge with as much despatch
as possible, the whole of the iron-work being in a Eta,to
of completion. Thursday afternoon, from the fineness of
the weather, there were numbers of spectators looking at
the progress olike*riunen. .

SPITALFIELDS WEAVERS' BALL.—The 1 de-
pression of the silk scale in Spitalfields has been so ex-
tremely great during the last tew months, that the poo;
weavers wilt) reside in that district have suffered urn:es
unparalleled destitution. A rept esentation of these cir-
en:sianees having been submitted to the Queen, her
Majesty has been graciously pleased to command that a
full dress ball, under her Majesty's immediate patronage,
shall take place at the Queen's Theatre for the benefit of
these unfortunate families, on Wednesday, the 19th of
May next, on which occasion her Majesty has signified her
intention of being present. Her Majesty has also been
pleased to make it a request that ladies will, on that even-
ing, wear dimes of Spitalfields maeufacture. The pat-
terns have been selected by her Majesty specially with a
view to the employment of the greatest number of tbose
for whom the chsrity is intended, and are in the hands cf
the various silk mercers. Several ladies of distinction
have kindly undertaken to be patronesses, a list of whims
will shortly be published, together with the names of the

St. James's, to whom all communications may be addressed.
DEATH OF EARL O'NEILL.—This Noble
Lord, who has been for some time suffering under serious
illness, died this mornirg (Thursday) at toe Bilton Ho-
tel. His Lordship had been one of the Postmasters-Ge-
neral in Ireland, and was in receipt of a pension for that
office. His death causes a vacancy in the Irish Repre-
sentativs Peersae, in the Lieutenancy of Antrim, and the
Colonelabip oft'the Antrim militia. General O'Neill,
Member for Antrim, is now Earl O'Neill. Of course
there will be a new election for that county. The late
Earl O'Neill bad been Grand Master of the Orangemen
of Ireland until the Orangemen of both countries bad
been formed into an Imperial Confederation under the
Grand Mastership of the King of Hanover.—Dublin

SUICIDE IN THE QUEEN'S MEWS.—This
mornirg, about six o'c'oek, on the opening of the stables
in the Queen's stables, Pimlico, the_servants were alarmed
by seeing the body of a man suspended by a cord from
one of the pegs. It appeared that the unfortunate man
had been dead for some hours. The deceased, whose
name was George Heater, had been one of her Majesty's
grooms or stablemen for some time. - He was thirty-four
years cf age, and has left a wife and young family. It is
!singular circumstance that the deceased hung himself 1
from tl;e very same peg from which one of bq r Majesty's
coachmen hung himself about thro3 ye-an Since. 1

CHURCH-RATES—OBEDIENCE TO LAWS.-133
the ' communication of a Correspondent, fron,
Dudley, we learn that the imposition of Church-
rates excited in that town a discussion as to the
bounds of obedience to the laws, so long ago a,
1837. We are not surprised at it, for laws which
are partial and unjust, necessarily provoke the
practice of disobedience, and the practice leads
to investigate the theory of obedience. That
laws be obeyed it is essential that they be just
and good ; and we do not understand the minds
of those conscientious men who pretend to have
a great love for all the virtues, and at the same
time force men to obey a law which they ac-
knowledge to be unjust. The reason whici.
gave rise to these discussions at Dudley was the
seizure of goods, from thirteen persons, of the
value of 561. 15s. for a Church-rate, amounting
to 171. 13s. Dissenters of all classes then resisted
the rate, and it is only necessary, we are per-
suaded, that the resistance should he more ex-
tensive to procure the abolition of this odious im-
post. Churchmen have a bad conscience on this
subject, and they would drop the rates as a dog
drops a bone which he knows he has stDlen.
when he is threatened with chastisement; when
they steadily and sturdily resisted. The people
of Dudley propose, we perceive, to reprint our
observations on these subjects, published this
day week. We can only regret, for their
sakes, that they are not more finished, more
elaborate, and more worthy of the cause; but
the necessity of writing, day after day. on the
spur of the moment, deprives the writer for a
daily journal of the means to revise and condense
his thoughts, or to clothe them in a garb worthy
of them and the public, to whom they are ad-
dressed.

WORKING OF THE CORN-LAW SYSTEM.

The advocates of a change in our Corn-laws are constantly
told, " that if thote laws are repealed, much of the land of the
country will go out of cultivation," and of course that the
present system is highly advantageous to the landowners and
land-tillers. One fact is worth a thousand suppositions. The
parish of Saddleworth, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, was
previous to the present Corn-laws one of the most wealthy and
prosperous districts in England, consisting mostly of small
freeholders carrying on the manufacture and fabrication of
woollen cloth ; but such has been the destruction of their
trade by the blighting and pestilential Corn-laws, destroying
their business, that there is at this moment not far from thirty
small farms in this parish untenanted, and in the hands of their
owners, on which an industrious manufacturing people once
lived comfortably, and kept a few cows for family u'e.
This is not a solitary case, all manufacturing districts are
similarly situated—empty mills and factories, empty houses,
empty shops, empty mansions, and empty farms. Could the
worst enemies of England have done more to destroy a great
and prosperous nation?

EXTENSIVE ROBBEftY AT
WINDSOR CASTLE.

At a late hour on Friday night a mounted express ar.
rived at the privato residence of the Commissioners of
Police, Whitehall-place bringing information that a
robbery of a daring and most extensive nature had been
committed at Windsor Castle. Tho information we have
been able to collect is meagre, in consequence of the
police authorities wishing to keep the matter a profound
secret. We have, however, ascertained from a source we
cart place implicit reliance on, that a gentleman holding a
very responsible situation in the castle, and the nature of
which enabled him at any time to have access to the crown
plate and jewels, has absconded, taking with him property
of the above mentioned description to the amount, it is
said, of some thousands. Tbis morning, at six o'clock,
Steed, one of the Inspectors appointed to do duty at the
palaces, accompanied by a Sergeant and five private COE-
stables of the A division of police, left town for Windsor
for the purpose of making the necessary investigation as
to the manner in which the robbery was committed, and
;f possible the retreat of the depredator.

PAYMENTS FOR NE WICHURCHES.

(FROM A CORRESP3NDENT.)
As glaring abases are frequently remedied by public
attention being called to them, I have to solicit the
insertion of the following hardship in your valuable jour-
nal :—I am residing in a parish in which some eight
years since, a church was built, partly by voluntary gifts
and partly by funds found by the nation at large. A
stipend for the Minister and Clerk, out of the pew rents,
was appropriated by the Church Commissioners, and after
" other expenses " (for these are the very words of the
Act) have bum provided for out of the remaining pew rents,
the surplus, if any, is to go towards the purchasing a house
for thu Minister. So far there is no objection, and
it was with such an understanding the inhabitants sub-
scribed their money towards the erection of the church,
thinking th it two objects would be gained—one, that the
church would maintain itself without the imposing on the
needy Church.ratei, and thereby avoidirg that obnoxious
impost, and tha other that the less wealthy should be pro-
vided rsith seats free of expense. Such las hitherto been-
the ntvicrstanding acted up to since the c:msecration of
the e,!igee ; but lately the minister either wishing to ren-
der himsolt obnoxious, or being led on by the advice of

thole who never lose sight of an opportunity to fill their
pockets by litigation, has taken upon himself to demand
the whole of the surplus money over and above his stipend
and the clerk's ; thus thinking to appropriate to himself
that which the Legislature intended shoulr', by the term
other expenses, go towards the expenses which arc abso-
lutely necessary to provide for, in order that the service of
the church may be decently proceeded with; that was
and is, no doubt, the intention of the framers of
the Act; a,d that the parishioners should not be
taxed more than was actually necessary. If this is
not the meaning, we should like to know what
" other expenses "do mean ? Then we have been most
egregiously deceived an imposed upon, as well as the
free-site s being compelled virtually to pay for their seats
by enforcing a rate from them to maintaio the church, from
which it was the anxious desire of their richer brethren to
release them. A vestry of the parish has bee.i. Convened,
and the effact of that will be that in consequende of the
above claim being made, that whilst it is being litigated,
we are to be deprived oifire, the choir, and lights for our
evening service, because the parish, , and think very
reasonably, will not have imposed upon them more than
the law anticipated. I have troubled . you with these few
remarks, that in all future subscriptions towards building a
church a perf.ct understanding should•be come to between
the inist.bitatita anti those having control over them.
