CHRIST CHURCH, WEST HARTLEPOOL,

"To the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Durham.
" My Lord,—We, the undersigned, being renters and
occupiers of pews in the above church, do hereby desire to
represent to your lordship the deep pain we feel at the
continuance of the present unhappy dispute with the Rev.
John Hart Burges. We desire at the same time to con-
vey to your lordship the expression of our deep anti unal-
terable conviction that, from circumstances to which we
need not more specifically allude, the usefuleess of Air.
Burges, as a minister of the Church of England, in West
Hartlepool, is at an end ; and we therefero most earnestly
iutreat your lordship to adopt such measures as to your
lordship .usay seem meet, for relieving hini from the respon-
sibility of any further ministrations in this town. We will
only add that we are the more encouraged to solicit this
favour at your lordship's hands from the fact that Mr. Bur-
ges has intimated to us his intention of holding his present
position so long only as he shall continue to receive the
sanction of your lordship's countenance and support.—And
your memorialists will ever pray."
We copy below his Lordship's reply, which was for.
warded to the memorialists on the some day :
"Auckland Castle, Sept. 16, 1556.
"Gentlemen,—Being aware of the disastrous conse-
quences of the unhappy dispute in West Hartlepool, on
the 4th of this month I wrote to Mr. Barges, earnestly ad-
visir.g him to resign. Receiving no answer, I wrote to him
again on the 9th, reiterating my advice; and I shall to-day
again urge him mot to delay his resignation. I do not
understand, after his public declaration, how be can re
main after such a positive intimation of my opinion and
wishes ' • but I am not aware that I have the power of coin-
pellinghim to resign while a doubt remains respecting the
validity of his licence. There is a wide difference between
a stipendiary and a perpetual curate. The former may be
dismissed at the discretion of the bishop ; the latter not
without a just and valid cause recognised by the law.--I
am, gentlemen, your most obedient servant,

AUSTRIA.

Accounts from Vienna say :—" It cannot be
denied that the episcopal conferences which have
taken place during the last three months in our
capital have rather disquieted than calmed the in-
telligent part of the nation. It is believed that
several important articles of the new Concordat
which require interpretation could not be settled
before the closing of the conferences, and that con-
sequently a second meeting of high ecclesiastical
dignitaries must take place in January and Feb.
next. It appears that decidedly there does not
exist complete accord between the Austrian bishops
of our German possessions and those of Lom-
bardy as to the manner of carrying into effect
several organic articles of the Concordat, and
amongst them the censorship to be exercised
on books arid publications. For certain categories
of books and printed papers the Concordat ascribes
the full power of censorship to the ecclesiastical
authorities, so that they are not obliged to consult
civil functionaries on the subject, the initiative of
the latter being confined to political writings.
However, some Italian bishops desire to extend
the sovereign right of censorship and that of visa
to all printed books which may appear iu their
diocese, whether scientific, economic, technical, or
anything else. The German and Hungarian
bishops, on their part, appear disposed thus far to
confine their power to religious works. It is be-
lieved, however, that the latter prelates, from the
desire to extend the power of the church, will in
the end adopt the opinion of their Italian brethren."

that on the previous night he was on duty in the police
galley, near Pickle-herring-stairA, when he saw the pri-
soner run down to the water's edge and plunge in. He
immediately made to the spot and caught hold of the
prisoner's clothes. Her struggles were very violent ;
but after considerable difficulty he succeeded in rescuing
her from a watery grave. He then got her ashore and
conveyed her to the station-house, where medical assis-
tance was procured, and sue was quickly restored to
11 I animation.

Sergeant Davis, 15 M, the acting inspector at the
Bermondsey police•station, said that after the prisoner
had recovered and was locked up in the cell she made
a most determined attempt to strangle herself. Witness
was compelled to have two cons'ables with her during
the remainder of the night, to prevent her accomplishing
her rash act.
Mr. Combe asked what was known, of her?

Sergeant Davis replied that she was an unfortunate
female, and had been several times in custody for drunk-
enness and other offence'. There c mid b 3 no doubt
that she w 3 under the it.fiuence of liquor when she at-
tempted to drown herself.
The prisoner said she had no recollection of what had
occurred, and she assured his worship that she never
contemplated suicide when sob :r.
Mr. Combe remanded her for a week, to enable the

constable gto make further inquirie4 about her. As for
Madden, his conduct was good, and no doubt he would
be rewarded by the Humane Society.

Eliza Orr, another young woman, was charged with
attempting to drown herself at London Bridge.

NEUCHATEL.

The Federal Tribunal holds its session to-day
(Monday) at Zurich, to settle the preliminaries of
the trial of the royalist prisoners from Neuchatel.
The trial itself will not come on for several weeks,
unless, which is not improbable, it should be has-
tened with a view to adjust the position of Swit-
zerland before the same can come under the
diplomatic action of the Great Powers.
A letter from Berlin, in the Nord of Brussels,
says :—" The King of Prussia refuses, in opposi-
tion to the advice of his Ministry, to assign to the
departure of M. de Sydow, his representative in
Switzerland, the character of a recall involving the
complete rupture of diplomatic relations. His
Majesty, in allowing such relations to continue,
whilst suspending direct negotiations with Swit-
zerland, gives a new proof of his repugnance to
violent measures."

The Prussian, correspondence of the Ist contains
the following reply to the articles in the London
press on the Neuchatel question :—Several Eng-
lish papers continue to side with injustice in the
Neuchatel question. Prussia's right is as clear as
day, and cannot be shaken by miserable insinua-
tions. The only thing we wish to observe is, that
these English journals, the worthless organs of a
great nation, do not only war against the judgment
of Germany and of Europe, but also against the
probity of their own Government, which hag ad-
hered to this judgment. It is the duty of British
statesmen to prove that their sense of justice rejects
all complicity with those journalists. We hope
that such proofs will soon be given ; and we are
convinced that the attitude of those journals will
be without influence on facts. But if these organs
merely intend to excite irritation and mistrust
among the Prussian people, they have perfectly
attained their object."

" A portion of the insurgents succeeded, however, in
escaping in the direction of Cefalu, on the coast between
Messina and Palermo, at 40 miles distance from the latter.
A. detachment of 800 men was embarked on toard a war-
steamer to follow the insurgents to their retreat... After
remaining three hours before the town the troops entered"
without opposition. To-day the road between Palermo
and Messina is again open, and the diligence runs as
usual."

" MESSINA, Nov. 29.
"Despite the excitement caused by the news from Pa•

lerrno, this city is tranquil. The police have, however,
thought it advisable to take meaeures of precaution ; the
-posts are doubled, but no one has as yet been arrested.
"At Catania placards are said to have been posted on
the walls with the words 'Long live the hereditary Prince!'
Long live the Constitution of 1812 !' But the police tore
them down without opposition from the people.
"The Neapolitan steam corvette lirena, stationed at
Alessina, left on the 28th for Naples, where she is to take
in 1,000 men and artillery."

The Italian papers give very little information
on the subject.
The Opinions of Turin, of the 2J, says :
" It appears certain that the movement is confined to the
neighbourhood of Palermo, and has not spread to the city,
where great excitement prevailed, and where the police
had hastily arrested some hundred persons. As is gene-
rally the case under such circumstances reports are cur-
rent of outbreaks elsewhere, as at Messina, Catania, Gir-
genti, and other places. The letters we have before us
mention as leaders M. Marco, a lawyer and ex• Deputy of
the Sicilian Parliament, and his brother-in-law, Benti-
venga, formerly in the army. A steamer is expected at
Genoa to-morrow from Naples, when we shall probably
have fuller details."

The Italia e Popolo, the organ of Mazzini,
says :--

"We bur from Palermo that the events we have so ar-
duously wished for have commenced. The first step has
been most favourable, as 600 armed men were enabled to
assemble at a moment's notice, led by men of talent and
energy.

" The movement commenced at Mezzojucto, about two
voiles from Palermo. Although at so short a distance from
that city, the police were a whole day inactive. All the
neighbouring districts—Tillafrate, Bonnira, Vicari, Ci-
mino., have fieen, .
" Fetes, concerts, and illuminations have been held.
The conduct of our brothers has been most sensible. There
has been no pillage, no effusion of blood, no act of violence,
but brotherly love throughout. At the moment lam writ-
ing I learn that the insurrection is spreading, and we hope
for success. The rallying cry is Vivo 1' Italia !' The flag
is a tricolour, without arms or municipal device."

A letter, dated Nov. 25, addressed to a merchant
at Genoa, says :
" The country around Palermo is in insurrection, and a
movement in the town is expected every moment."

FRANCE.
PARIS, SIYNDAY EVENING.

The Moniteur publishes the following :—" The
Treaty of Paris has met, in its application, with
difficulties which have given rise to a difference of
opinion between the contracting Courts, and has
rendered necessary a meeting of their respective re-
presentatives to hasten the complete execution of
the conditions of peace. The majority of the
Powers that signed the treaty have already agreed,
with this object in view, to the convocation of the
Cotiference at Paris. It is, therefore, to be pre-
sumed that it will be able to meet before the end
of the present month, and everything authorises
the hope that it will succeed in promptly re esta-
blishing a perfect understanding on the points
under dispute."
