rche true mthodox ,ta„,iard, bel;eve, is parson
to every 600 town population, and one to every
parish in the country, however few and scattered
may be the inhabitants. We must have therefore
about as many parsons as policemen, and nearly as
twiny churches as butchers' shops, to realise the in-
tentions of Sir itoBERT INcus and Co. The
scheme is a gross palpable piece of humbug,-
which cannot by any means l e carried into com-
plete execution, and, therefore, no part of it should

Sir R. INGLIS may now propose to grout only.
500,0001., or 1,000;0001., hut every grant will
make anoOter necessary. The want now is twice
as great as before 1825, when the Church received
a million. As churches and preacher.; are multiplied,
Bishops must he increased. It is already said of
several of our large sees, as London and Lincoln, that
the duties are far more than one mate can perform.
If the Parliament, therefore, grant money to build
more churches and provide more parsons, there
must be assistant Bishops. An increase of the
subordinate priests implies an increase of the hioher.
orders of the clergy. The neW Wshops would Rave
be provided fcr out of the national funds, and we
lw.ve been told, on high authority, that for less
than 4,000/. a year a Bishop cannot be bad.
To substitute such a costly preaching for the Pres- -
byterian cheapness- of Dissent is a monstrous piece
Of extravagance.
To complete Sir HOBERT INGLIS'S scheme on
the Church of England scale, sooner or later . •
100,080,0001. must be voted, and sooner or later
the State must provide for 100 Bishops and about
80,000 subordinate priests. Under the name of
providing for the glory of God and the moralityof the -
people, Sir R. INGLIS and the priests have Con-
cocted
a gigantic scheme of extortion by means of
taxation. If the Legislature were so contemptible
as to sanction such a scheme, the people would
never be foolish enough to submit to the Legisla-
ture, which might destroy itself without being able• •
to serve or say P the priesthood

An article in the Times of this day
surpasses in int'
podence and mendacity any effusion ever yet pub isbed, •
even in that journal. The Bishop of LONDON, with
11:.s enormous patronage and enormous annual revenue,
which is rapidly increasing every year, is described el a -
poor unfortunate man ; and he is pitied for having wt..-
tered the Church, ,itcriiielng wealth and rank to the • -
sacred profession, and consoled with a text from Scrip-
ture, intimating that though imor in this world there i 9. -
a treasure laid up' for him in Heaven. He is repre-
sented as spending thousands upon thousands to sup- -
port the Chu:ch, thereby diminishing his income to
such an extent that he is forced to let his town maw
sion, and live upon short c4.lmatons like a broken down
gambler or sti-4-broker. Adulation could no farther
go.. The Bishop of LONDON has the largest income.
we believe, of Etly Prditte on the Bench ; he has vast
patrorage, and in return for the two thousand poticds
subscribed for endowing metropolitan Churches, he bag
taken care to confer Da himself patronage worth. tea
tithes the amount. Not a word i 5 said of this. Tne
writer, indeed, seems to lose sight of every thing. but
the poverty and piety of this miserable Bi:hop, and el-
mot begs pardon for exposing his wretched conditiot
to the world. " How many thousands after thousands.
exclaims the afflicted Churchman, (for no layman could
fawn in such guise) has the prelate with whose name, •
perhaps painfully to himself; we have introduced these
remarks, subscribed to the building of churches and the
endowment of churches in destitute places ?" Unfor.• •
tunate Bishop ! If he goes on thus he will ruin
self and family, and we therefore recommend his Meade
.•
to sue for a writ de lunatico inquirendo, in order to save
the wreck of his property.

Letters from Athens of the 29th ult., and from Coll•
stantinople of the 27th, have reached us. The nevr!. Of •
the murder of Lord WILLIAM RUSSELL had prevented.
the celebration of the QUEEN'S birthday in the. Turk-
ish capital. Old KHOSRFW PAcHA was still at the head
of affairs, though a Grand Council was held on the
27th to deliberate on his removal, and nothing further
was known respecting the settlement of the Oriental
question. In Greece the influence of Russia is greater
than ever. All the Phil-orthodox prisoners, except
CAPO DISTRIAS, Nix Ems, and REMIERI, have been
set at liberty without trial ; and these are to be tried,
not for treason, but a simple misdemeanour. M. Zo-
anArtios, the guiltiest of the gang, is still in office,
and a prodigious favourite with his Royal master. If
such a state of things be suffered to continue, Greece
wit! soon become a Russian province.

The ilionitetir of Tuesday, which he have received
, „
ci,
together with the otner Paris Papers of the. same ate,i,
contains the following telegraphic intelligence :
" BAYONNE, JUNE 15, TWELVE O'CLOCK. 1",112
" Balmaseda has been attacked. near Soria by the troOpf Isf3
of the Viceroy of Navarre. The rebels were destroyed or
dispersed: Balmaseda made his escape with only 400 men.
In addition to the above important news from Spain.: :!1s•
.
we find, in the same official Journal, the following
then account of the progress of events in the Peninsula:-rl,oilnO,
" In Catalonia General O'Donnell with 10,000 men is in
pus uit of Cabrera, who !s said to have entered the pro-...) clot!
vince with only five battalions of infantry and a few eavalry.,,r els

Intendant Labeudere, accompanied by Cabrera's brother.
4 youth of ut 14 rl5 years lei, were arrested on the
9 It inst. by the Gendarmerie of Osseja, in the Pyrenees
Orientates, as they were corning over the frontier. At
first they assumed fake names, but on being conducted to
the prefecture at Perpignan, acknowledged who they
wile. They were in passession of 50,000 f in gold. It is
said that they are to be st.nt to Bourg, in the kn."
It was expected in Paris that the next despatch
would announce the flight of CABRERA into France.
Once in the power of M. TIMES, anti lie will not soon
<; gain be alloxed to disturb the peace of Spain.
There is no other news of interest in the papers of
Tuesday.
The Journal du Havre contains the following article :
" The ship Ileloise, Captain Cartier, arrived yesterday in our
pce t, direct from Manarzari, in the island of Aladagasear, with
a cargo composed of various productions of that island, such as
rice, hides, horns, wax, gum, covil, &c. We observe besides
in this cargo 2,300 bags of sugar, which is the first consi-
derab!e quantity of that article that we have received from that
country.
