is in the Sound ready for sea, and will proceed when
the wind and weather are favourable.

steam-sloop split one of her boilers, but performed
her assigned duty, and afterwards went round the
Eddystone to work her machinery.
Her Majesty's ship Bellerophon, 78, will be paid off
all standing on Tuesday. A court of inquiry was
held on board on Thursday regarding an alleged
breach of orders on the part of her Captain (Baynes)
in not having called at Lisbon on her return from
Gibraltar. The hearing was private, but it is under-
stood that the foggy state of the weather and the
absence of a Tagus pilot are the reasons assigned fur
not calling. Several of the officers, newly appointed
to tice Bellerophon, have held their commission six
weeks, although unemployed in consequence of her
long passage home.
The Mariner, 12, Commander Matheson, will be
paid off on Wednesday. The tine young lioness, a

lower decks, and to afford a more suitable mess-place
for the junior engineers.
The remainder of the crew of the Nautilus barque,
of 400 tons register, landed at Plymouth last week,
from her Majesty's steam-vessel Pluto, Lieutenant-
Commander Jolliffe, give the following account of the
loss of their ship :—" She belonged to Messrs. Red-
man and Langley, of London, and sailed therefrom on
the Ist of November, 1849 ; arrived at Sierra Leone
the 27th of December, and in six weeks discharged 'a
general cargo of patent fuel, bricks, slates, brandy,
rum, beer, Sheffield goods, &c. In the middle of Fe-
bruary proceeded down the coast to Yarra Bay, and
there lauded a full cargo of oak timber for Govern-
ment, to call at Cork or Falmouth for orders. Sailed
the 22d of April, and on the 2d of May, at seven
o'clock in the evening, strong gale from north-west by
west, was driven on the rocks of the Conflict Reef, off
the river Nunez, to the north of Sierra Leone. The
crew took to their boats, but observing that the Nau-
tilus had floated off the rocks, they boarded her again,
and by dint of great application and constant attend-
ance at the pumps, they in the course of ten days
brought her back to Sierra Leone, where she arrived
on the 12th of May, with upwards of six feet. water
in her bold. Exhausted by his exertions in
the unhealthy climate, Captain Burrell speedily
fell by the first attack of the coast fever, and died (it
the 14th of May at Kinsey Town, near Sierra Leone
Proper. The second mate, W. Bell, expired three
weeks, and Joseph Quinlan, a seaman, five weeks
after the master. The carpenter, William Stewart,
of Blackv‘all, died on the 12th of August. The ship
having been surveyed, was condemned, and on the
28th of August was sold; the chief mate remaining
at Sierra Leone in charge. On the sth of Septemler
five seamen and two apprentices embarked in the
Pluto, and were on the let inst. landed at Plymouth,
whence they were forwarded to their homes by the
agent of the Shipwrecked Mariners' Society."

feeble attempt was made to sustain the Foram,
But whence did it proceed ? From one of the newly
appointed dignitaries; one who was himself elevated
to episcopal rank and station by the objectionable
rescript. Dr, ULL APR ORN E was too palpably an
interested party—one too closely concerned 'in the
issue to permit much weight to be attached to his
opinions or arguments. The nature of the almost
solitary exception proved the strength and the all but
universality of the rule.
But matters have at length assumed a different
aspect, the gage of battle has been flung down by a
person serving, or at leant professing to serve, under a
very different standard. The Rev. GEORGE Aet-
TRONY DENISON, a beneficed clergyman of the Church
of England, has attempted to sow divisions in the camp,
to raise the banner of revolt among the previously united
cohorts. The Rev. Gentleman exhibits considerable
skill in the tactics he has adopted. He does not at-
tempt directly to stem the torrent, although the
animus in which he enters on the contest is sufficiently
plain to require no explanation as to his real motives.
But be endeavours to create a diversion, to turn the
attention of the people to another and a very different
matter. He declares that " the warfare which the
Church of England has to wage . in these
days is only secondarily against Rome ;" that
" her first and greatest enemy is the latitudinarianism
of the State." "The first and greatest evil against
which she has to contend (says the Rev. Gentleman)
is the endeavour of the State to denude her step by
step of her Catholic character." He also emphati-
cally warns the "members of the Catholic Church
of England" to beware how they combine with every-
thing that is " anti- Catholic," in one " Protestant" out-
cry against something which is Catholic. It is impos-
sible to peruse the epistle of the Rev. Gentleman without
agreeing with him in one particular. We admit that
" the warfare which the Church of England has to
wage is only secondarily against Rome." There are
greater dangers to be dreaded from the stabs of • pre-
tended friends than from the hostility of fair and
manly opponents, who openly and honourably avow
their real characters. Deeper injury has been
inflicted of late years by " Tractarianism " and
Puseyism, by the decking out of altars, and the re-
establishment of obsolete forms and ceremonies, re-
pugnant to the feelings of true Protestants, than by
all that could be accomplished by the acknowledged
emissaries and ministers of the Papal Court. had it
not been fur this movement, and fur the mischievous
divisions created thereby in the Church of England, it
is more than probable that we should not have seen
the recent aggressions by the head of the Roman
Catholic Church. Had it not been for " the
fantastic tricks played before high Heaven"
by ministers and, we regret to say, by pre-
lates of the Established Church, the heart-burn-
ings and dissensions that have been so painfully con-
spicuous of late years would not have taken place.
We should not have had in the " Gorham Contro-
versy," pursued usque ad nauseam, the persevering at-
tempt to drive a pious, au amiable, a learned,
and, in every respect, un exemplary clergyman,
'rorn the Church of which he is au ornament. Nor

morrow, and her two aft boilers will only be used.
When she went down the river on Saturday last for
the purpose of being tried she had one boiler for-
ward and one aft at work on reverse sides
of the vessel, for the purpose of balancing her
properly, but the trial at the measured mile was not
proceeded with, as the steam generated found its way
in considerable quantities into the empty boilers,
and consequently a fair trial could not be obtained.
The Volcano steam-vessel is having her rigging
put up at this port, and will be the next vessel com-
missioned for the coast of Africa. The Locust steam-
vessel will also be made ready for the same service.

Two years since a spirit of thrift appeared to have
taken possession oi" the nation. A loud and energetic
demand for economy and retrenchment was heard
throughout the length and breadth of the land ; the
injustice and impolicy of " indirect taxation" was

exposed in every district. Free-traders, or those who
professed to be so, declared that every restriction on
British commerce should be abolished, that there
should be no Excise or Customs duties to clog the
national industry. Various suggestions were offered
well worthy of consideration, and among others the

" The author, we are convinced, is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. lie is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, an 4 by a laudable love
cf the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan-
guage i which he expresses his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
cn matters that are the prima mobilia of the actions which cha-
ricterlsenatnre's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Man-
nerses, and Smythes."—Observer.

gco dtaste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en-

racter if Amelia Ross we have already spoken, and the extract we
lave given above is the surest voucher of the truth of what we have

should we have seen a misguided individual reading
a public protest against the royal supremacy in
matters ecclesiastical, and desecrating the Church of
which he was the minister, by introducing political
matters instead of the pure doctrines of Christianity,
which it was his duty to have taught. We can-
not conclude without telling Mr. DENISON that
if there be anything against which the
feelings of Englishmen revolt, against which they
entertain the deepest and most profound horror, it is
the fighting under false colours, and deliberately re-
taining a lucrative preferment, when the incumbent
has ceased to entertain the opinions by which alone
he could be qualified to receive it. Sr. DENISON'S
views may be fitting in a private individual who had
left the Church of England, but they are singularly
unbecoming in the Vicar of East Brent.

fend what they are pleased to consider the "prejudices'
of the Free-traders by going in open defiance of their
doctrines and principles, provided they can induce
them to yield the great point at issue under a different
guise. They do not now, " sweet innocents," de-
mand the re-imposition of " protective duties."
Oh, no, far from it ! The late lamented
Lord GEORGE BENTINCK, a single year after
the abolition of the corn-laws, admitted " the
hopelessness of looking forward to a return of these
imposts." But they merely ask " for an import duty
on agricultural produce," for the sake of revenue (!
" to as,,ist them in paying the interest on some part
of that debt under which they at present groaned."
They must, indeed, entertain rather an bumble
opinion of the national intelligence, if they for a
moment suppose that the community is now to be de-
ceived by such specious pretences, such gross and
palpable humbug. The recollections of the corn-
laws, of the small and dear loaf, are " too green" in
the public memory to allow of that public being
quite ao green as to be caught by such chaff. It is
well, however, to be prepared for the convulsive
effort—to be aware of the direction in which the
attack will be made. And that has, happily, been
exposed by the speech of Mr. MILES, the Protectionist
Member for West Somersetshire, at the naeet-

ing of the Protectionist and Conservative
Association of that county, held last week at Bridge-
water. Fas est ab hostc doceri. There are
certain matters alluded to by the Honourable Gen-
tleman well worthy the attention of all classes of
Reformers, more especially of those who feel the
vital importance, nay more, the absolute and impera-
tive necessity of great fiscal changes, of a thorough
and searching investigation into the national re-
sources and the national expenditure.
And first, Mr. MILES has clearly and distinctly
pointed out the great and almost insuperable difficulty,
the formidable impediment, that obstructs the very
threshold of the undertaking. No new tax can be
proposed in the House of Commons without the con-
sent of the Crown being first duly had and obtained,
and that consent will not be granted unless the proposi-
tion meets.the approbation of the Ministry, or, perhaps
we might more correctly say, of Sir CHARLES WOOD,
who presides over the financial department. Any
suggestion for fiscal changes is at once met with the
preliminary objection—The revenue of the country
is only sufficient to , provide for its expenditure.
If you would keep faith with the public creditor, you
cannot abolish any productive tax without providing
a fittiag substitute, and the assent of the Crown has
not been obtained with respect to that substitute,
which cannot therefore even be taken into consider-
ation. Thus an inconvenient discussion is stopped
in iimine, and the atrocious system of indirect taxation
is still maintained through a blind and slavish ad-
herence to this stringent regulation, which was
established when the regal power was not so clearly
defined and limited as at present. It was to remove
this difficulty for future generations that we recently
directed the public attention to the necessity of
limiting the duration of any new tax that may be
imposed in place of the rapidly ceasing income-tax to
a single year, by which the popular strength would
be consolidated and planted upon a sound and firm
foundation.
The golden opportunity afforded by the expiry of
that impost is clearly discerned by enemies as well as
friends—by Protectionists as well as Free. traders.
Mr. MILES declared at Bridgewater that "it appeared
to him that certainly the whole question of their taxa-
tion would be raised next year, because next year, as
a matter of course, the question of the income-tax
would again come before Parliament, and that would
open the whole question of the particular burdens of
the whole nation, or of the productive part of it.
When tht was discussed they might ask for any
relief from taxation, or move an amendment on the
present system of taxation—they could choose their
course.'" This is, indeed, the truth. Mr. MILES was
fully warranted in his assertion that it will open the
whole question, and enable the chosen representatives
of the people " to ask for any relief fromtaxation,or

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS,

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es.

timated at 5,000 bales, r f which 500 Surat were taken
for exportation. The market closed heavily, with
prices of all kinds a shade in favour of buyers. The
sales comprised about 3,500 American at 7-4 d. to Bid.; 100
Egyptian at Bd. to 91; 1,000 Surat at 51d. to 54d.; and
80 Sea Islands at is. 2cl. to ls. 50. per 10.—Ia Railway
Shares a flir business was done, and the market closed
firm with an upward tendency iu prices.
The endeavour to establish a tribunal of commerce,

it is satisfactory to find, is rot likely to slumber, al-
though we could wish to see the merchants at large
taking a more active part. The mere adhesion to pro-
posals for a good object is scarcely sufficient, and unless
a warm interest is taken in the question, and its import-
ance is not only understood but enforced, wo shall find
it much more difficult to establish a new system than had
been supposed. There can be no doubt that it is in
the power of the attorneys to forward the
matter, and that their interest would not suffer by so
doing; but we contend nevertheless that it is the business
more especially of the merchants. Mr. Francis Lyne,
who originated the movement, has received several
highly creditable offers of support from solicitors, and
among them the following:—
" Having observed by the papers your intention of
establishing a society, having for its object the settlement
of disputes without the heavy expenses of litigation, I
requested my agents, Messrs. —, of Lincoln's Inn, to
see you on the subject, and to request that you will be
kind enough to let me have the rules of die society. My
agents write me word you are kind enough to say you
will answer any questions I put. I have practised as a
solicitor here for the last sixteen years, but have always
avoided, almost by any means, carrying my cause to
trial, and have generally arranged the eases by friendly
mrdiation.

"The same idea that has struck you has often been
in my mind, and I shall. rrjoice if I can assist in. carrying
out your views.
"I should of course not wish to do away entirely
with the respectable solicitors, but I sincerely wish to
form a society which will bind their members to submit
their disputes to arbitration, at ?east in the first, instance,
and try to arrange their disputes amicably, and if not
successful they could but go to law."
This groin a solicitor is on eniightencri and renlly very

awyers as advisers and agents might have double their
present occupation, if the terror of a law-suit did not
induce parties either to submit to the first loss or to
pan:h up an unsatisfactory compromise among them-
selves. It has become a practice among moat respect-
able attorneys to counsel their clients to avoid a lawsuit.
The Hamburgh letters of Friday last quote the ex-
change on London At- lower. viz., 13 5 Coffee, though
quiet seas very firm, At Frankfort, n the 2,d instant,
Austrian Metallics were 77i and Spanish Three per

Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were 561.
The Prussian official journal, the Staatsanzeiger, gives
a most important, because authorised statement, viz., a
contradiction of the information in the Times,
that Russia and France ever asked the ac-
quiescence of England in a plan for invading Prussia,
should the latter not abservc a more strictly neutral
policy with regard to Holstein. The letters from Berlin
are more encouraging to the prospect of an amicable
arrangement of the different questions affecting the re
pose of Germany, but it is greatly to be feared that in
securing this repose Constitutionalism will surer.
Thes Yarmouth !Vora Scotia Register stm'sais—" Our
mackerel fishermen, we regret to say, are doing a very
slim business this year. A gentleman who has lately
made a tour of the Cape, informs us that there is not at
present 2,000 barrels of mackerel in the country. Two
year:, ago, at the came season of th© year, lie counted
over 20,000 barrels on the wharves of the Cape. A
much larger fleet is now engaged in the busi-

this year would greatly depress our enterpris-
ing capitalists. We hope, however, that the last
resort of: our fishermen, the school off Chatham' will
not disappoint their reasonable expectations. The
fishing interest of Nova Scotia are just now teceising a
very large share of attention from the mercantile com-
munity. We are extremely well pleased that we have
succeeded in directing the public mind to thin most im-
portant topic. There is a reasonable probability that
the Coast and Deep Sea Fisheries will be prosecuted
next year with unprecedented ardour. It shall be our
aim to keep this most promising subject directly in front
of the community at large."
