ILLEGALITY fl the SYNOD AT EXETIR.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE PLYMOUTH HERALD.
Sir,—May I request the favour of your inserting
the accompanying case and opinion in your next pub-
lication.
It IN ill be seen that in the opinion of the two
learned lawyers, whose names are attached, that the
vrecaedings of the late synod at Exeter, were at en-
tire variance with the laws of the land, and that all
persons who took part in the same have rendered
themselves amenable to those laws. information has
also reached me that anothar distinguished civilian
has expressed himself most strongly in accordance
with the views set forth by Mr. Peacock and Dr.
Bayford,iand that were proceedings taken against any
of the persons who took part in the synod, very serious
consequences would arise.
As synodical meetings in other dioceses are confi-
dently spoken of, it may be well that the public
should be informed through the medium of the press
what are the views entertained by men of the highest
eminence at the bar on this important subject.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

NORTH BRITISH.

It appears from tee report of the directors to be I
submitted to the proprietors at the half-yearly meeting
on Thursday next, that after making all deductions
from the traffic receipts there remains a free revenue
of 19,8561., of which 17,7161. is required for the
dividends on the guaranteed stock, leaving a balance
of 2,1401, which the directors recommend should be
carried to the credit of the next half-year's account.
Since the last meeting the Bill for the enlargement of
the Edinburgh station and other purposes has received
the Royal ;Assent. The sums which the company are
authorized to raise under that Act are, by shares
330,5001., and by loans 110,1601., together 440,6601. ;
and the shareholders may at any general meeting,
specially convened for the purpose, guarantee such
amount of interest or dividend, not exceeding 5 per
cent. per annum, and attach such other privileges with
respect to preference as may be agreed upon at such
meeting. Such preference, or priority, IF, however,
in no way to interfere with existing preferences or
priorities. The directors recommend that these shares
be issued as 5 per cent. preference shares, ranking
next after the present existing preference
shares, that they be issued as shares of 21. 103.
each, and that they be apportioned rateably among
the holders of both ordinary and guaranteed stock in
the proportion of one share to each 251. stock.
Adopting this mode of division, the sum to be raised
at present would be 321,332/., leaving a balance of
9,1671., which balance, as well as any shares which
may not be taken up by the parties to whom they are
allocated, the directors recommend that they he au-
thorized to dispose of as they may see best for the in-
terest of the company. They also recommend that
they be authorized to exercise the borrowing powers
of the Act to the extent of 110,1601. The directors
state that the share and loan capital to he raised under
this Act is chiefly to ply off the money which has
been borrowed from banks and others, and therefore
that the dividends and interests payable thereon ar
no new drain on the revenue, except ton small extent,
but come in place of the interest hitherto paid for
such borrowed money, and which is now entirely
charged against revenue. Part of the capital autho-
rized by the Act was for certain alterations and im-
provements at Edinburgh and Dalkeith stations,
which the directors were anxious to have executed

FRANCE.

Joseph Rusiecki, one of the oldest and the most
distinguished of the Polish emigrants in France, died
a few days since, in the hospital at Vierson. He
was horn in 1770, and commenced his military career
in 1787. He fought against the Russians in 1794,
under the command of the immortal Kosciusko. After
the partition of Poland he entered the service of the
French Republic, fondly hoping like many others
who were equally deceived that his country's inde-
pendence would be restored through French influence.
He made the campaigns of Italy with the First
Consul, and formed part of the expedition to St.
Domingo under Roehambeatt. He served subse-
quently in the Cuirassiers, commanded by General
Hautpoul, who died in his arms on the sanguinary
field of Eylau. On the Cuirassiers who were cut
to pieces in that battle being re-organised, it was
observed to Napoleon that Lieutenant Rusiecki wak
not the height for a Cuirassier. The Emperor com-
manded him to alight, and placing himself back to
back with him, he remarked to his aide-de-camp,
"You are mistaken, Sir, he is not a dwarf, he is my
t•izr," and at the same time he promoted him to the
rank of captain in that corps. He was named major
in the year 1812, during the campaign of Russia.
He commanded the 221 regiment of the line during
the War of Independence, in the year 1831. His
remains were accompanied to the grave by the prin-
cipal inhabitants of Vierzon, and by the National
Guard. _ _

A few days ago, says the Presse, a farmer, who
is mayor of a commune in the arrondissement of
Montmedy, was much embarrassed, bis wife having
three days before been delivered of a child, and the
deputy mayor, who should have received the legal
declaration, being dead. In this embarrassment the
mayor drew up and executed the following declara-
tion :—" This day, accompanied by my witnesses
(here the witnesses are named), I appeared before
myself, as mayor of the commune, for the purpose of
declaring to myself that my wife has been brought to
bed with a living child. On my inquiry as to the sex
of the child, and as to who were itsfather, and mother,
I replied to myself that it is of the masculine sex, and
the son of myself, Francois Prottin, and of Marie
Lascende, his wife. In virtue of which I have signed
the present with myself, mayor, and the aforesaid wit-
nesses, " FRANCIS PROTTIN, mayor,
" FRANCIS PROTTIN, the father."

CORK AND BANDON.

The inquiry on theibills of indictment, charging
the traversers with feloniously and maliciously plac-
ing obstructions on this railway, thereby endangering
the lives of the public, and which occasioned the re-
cent riot on the line, was brought, after three days'
proceedings, to a close on Friday, before Chief Baron
Pigott. The affair, it will be remembered, arose out
of a dispute between the contractors and the railway
company, and has terminated in a verdict by the jury
of acquittal for all the traversers, the Chief Baron ad-
ministering a reprimand to the men, and cautioning
them not to act so recklessly under the advice of others
in future.

soon reduced to order.

of suburb to the canvass town. Nearly 100.0u0 lambs ere
offered for sale, and, for the most part, changed owners, at
most satisfactory prices. It was the best fair known fOr se-

the same day. The birds were very strung and numelous,
but remarkably wild.

NORTH BRITISH.

It appears from the report of the directors to be
submitted to the proprietors at the half-yearly meeting
on Thursday next, that after making all deductions
from the traffic receipts there remains a free revenue
of 19,856/., of which 17,716/, is required for the
dividends on the guaranteed stock, leaving a balance
of 2,1401, which the directors recommend should be
carried to the credit of the next half-year's account.
Since the last meeting the Bill for the enlargement of
the Edinburgh station and other purposes has received
the Royal assent. The sums which the company are
authorized to raise under that Act are, by shares
330,5001.. end by loans 110,1601., together 440,660/, ;
and the shareholders may at any general meeting,
specially convened for the purpose, guarantee such
amount of interest or dividend, not exceeding 5 per
cent. per annum, and attach such other privileges with
respect to preference as may be agreed upon at such
meeting. Such preference, or priority, is, however,
in no way to interfere with existing preferences or
priorities. The directors recommend that these shares
be issued as 5 per cent. preference shares, ranking
next after the present existing preference
shares, that they be issued as shares of 21. 103.
each, and that they be apportioned rateably among
the holders of both ordinary and guaranteed Etock in
the proportion of one share to each 251. stock.
Adopting this mode of division, the sum to be raised''
at present would be 321,332/., leaving a balance of
9,1671., which balance, as well as any shares which
may not be taken up by the parties to whom they are
allocated, the directors recommend that they be- au-
thorized to dispose of as they may see best for the in-
terest of the company. They also recommend that
they be authorized to exercise the borrowing powers
of the Alt to the extent of 110,1601. The directors
state that the share and loan capital to be raised under
this Act is chi fly to pay off the money which has
e
been borrowed from banks and others, and therefore
that the dividends and interests payable thereon are
no new drain on the revenue, except to a small extent,
but coma is place of the interest hitherto paid for
such b Trowsd money, and which is now entirely
charged against revenue. Part of the capital autho-
rized by the Act was for certain alterations and im-
provements at Edinburgh and Dalkeith stations,
which the directors were anxious to have executed

The Council General of Health at Genoa has di-
rected that arrivals from the ports of Morocco shall
be subjected to a quarantine of 12 days owing to the
cholera having penetrated into that empire from
Algeria, it having been ascertained that at Oucbda,
in particular, there are 20 to 25 deaths from cholera
per day ; a large proportion, considering the small
number of inhabitants.
A letter from Rome of the 10th states that on the
7th, at about nine o'clock at night, a gentleman
named ORLANDI was attacked by an unknown person
on the Piazza del Monte Citorio, and wounded with a
stiletto. The wound was but slight, Signor ORLANDI
having fortunately parried the blow with bis arm. The
assassin has not been since discovered by the police. As
Signor 01114.21D1 has never mixed in politics, and can-
not therefore be supposed to have political enemies,

rugia. The relics formerly preserved in the convents
which were suppressed a few years ago in Switzer•

GERMAN Y.

The Cologne Gazette of the Ist instant says that
General NOSTIZ arrived at Berlin from Hanover on
the evening of the 28th; he brought a favourable ac-
count of the King of ICOVER'S health. The New
Gazette of Prussia announces, however, that his MA-
JESTY'S malady had become worse, and that on the
29th only his physicians were permitted to see him;
but on the following morning he was able to receive
several persons.
The Cologne Gazette contradicts the report of an
intended mobilisation of the Prussian army.
The Danish Cabinet has not yet replied to the notes
addressed to it by Austria and Prussia, informing it
that the new Ministry did not inspire them with any
confidence.
