THE GLASS IN THE HYDE PARK BUILDING.—In
the original design great care was taken in deciding on the
material to be employed. In the first instance, glass for the
roof was specified 24 oz. to the foot; this, after due delibera-
tion, not being deemed strong enough for ordinary contin-
gencies, was increased to 30 oz. to the foot, the most com-
petent judges being of opinion that thinner glass would not
be safe. In adopting Mr. Paxton's design one would
imagine the building committee considered that they were
relieved from further responsibility, as the glass now speci-
fied for the structure is of the cheapest and commonest
sheet glass 16 ounces to the foot, or 1-16th
description—viz.,
of an inch thick; an article quite unfit for any roof, especi-
ally in sizes 49 inches by 10 inches, such as are employed.
There is not a similar instance of cheap glazing any third-
class building to be found; the first respectable hail storm
would demolish the whole, if not protected by the canvas
outside, but which could not be permanently retained. The
total cost of the glass will be only 10,0001. Surely out of
150,0001. to be paid for the building, if it remain, something
better could have been offered in the glass way.—Builder.
The new Baron is, we believe, the first Irishman
who ever filled a similar post in the administration of Eng-
lish law. He has been in extensive practice for many yens
at the common-law bar, and for a considerable time oue of
the leaders of the Northern Circuit. It is hardly necessary
to state that the Learned Judge is son-in-law of Sir F. Pol.
IOCK, the Lord Chief Baron.

The Rev. T. Binney, of the Weigh-house Chapel,
Fish-street-hill, after his sermon last Sunday morn-
ing, made mine allusion to the recent aggression of the
Popedom.
After the Rev. Preacher bad finished the discourse,
he proceeded to say that he wished to make a feW
remarks on a subject that was causing a great deal of
excitement and uneasiness at the present time—the
recent extraordinary conduct of the Pope. The fol-
lowing is an outline of his address:—
A late poet informs us that " he awoke one morn-
ing and found himself famous." The celebrity came
upon him like a surprise ! Within the last few days
all England seems to have been suffering from a
sudden surprise of this sort. We lay down last 'Sun-
day night, and dreamt, as usual, that we were'Prq
testents, living in a Protestant country; we awoke
on Monday morning and found ourselves the inhabit-
ants of " Catholic England !" On the preceding da'
statements had been made, and documents read, in
Popish places of worship, from which it appear
that our land and nation were restored to Rome
were reconciled and re-united to the Holy Fathe ;
and that he, in the plenitude of his supreme a
comprehensive paternity, regarded us all as his chi -
dren and his charge !
You are aware of the excitement this has occa-
sioned. . The public prints are filled with allusions to
it. We have had clerical addresses and episcopal re-
plies; public meetings, in some places already held,
in others about to be held. It is natural to ask, what
is it that has really been done ? Ought it, or ought
it not, to occasion the alarm it has produced ? How
should_ we, as Dissenters,• look at, and feel about it ?
I cannot pretend to have a full and definite opinion
respecting a matter which, as yet, is so new ' • I am
willing, however, to give you, as my flock, the be-
nefit, such in it is, that may lie in your knowing holly,
on the first blush of the thing, it shapes itself to n4y
mind.
The Pope has created an Archbishop of West-
minster, and a Bishop of Birmingham ; and be hiss
divided the whole of England into so many dioceseS ;
and bishops of Liverpool, Salford, &c., are to te
created to preside over them. This is what has ben
done—with the additional circumstance that the Arcla-
bishop of Westminster is also a cardinal—he has
received the highest dignity which it is in the power
of his Holiness to confer. The question is, what is
there in this to excite fear or to provoke indignatioo
At first sight, and viewed simply as a spiritual Or
ecclesiastical arrangement, it might seem as if there
were nothing very serious in it. Other communions
have their ecclesiastical districts, or may have them.
Why may not the Romanists have theirs ? Nay,
have they not had such districts for a long tin+,
with bishops and priests presiding over theml?
What is it, then, that makes the new arrangement so
serious ? •

Three things at least would seem to stand out in
reply to this question.
1. A new spiritual claim. Previous to the recent
act of the Papacy the Romanists, it is admitted, had
their bishops and districts; but the whole arrange-
ment contemplated themselves alone. The bishops
took their titles from places in other lands—old, ex•
tinct sees; they had not, properly speaking, any
territorial relation to England, but only a spiritual
relation to a certain portion of the people. Dr.
Wiseman, for instance, was Bishop of Alelipotamus
—to that diocese, wherever it is, he would be re-
garded at Rome as having a territorial relation, and
an episcopal relation to all its inhabitants, if there are
any. In England, however, he was only on a spiri-
tual mission to the members of his own Church, and
pretended to no Ecclesiastical seletion to any one else.
But now that the Popish bishops take the names of
the towns and cities of England, and England itself
is parcelled out by the Pope into actual dioceses to
which he appoints, there is in this new arrangement
(whatever may be said to the contrary) an implied
claim to spiritual interest in Englishmen as such—an
interest not springing merely from their benevolence
for the salvation of schismatics (which we are quite
willing his Holiness should feel), but one ariag out
of a territorial relation to the British soil, and a con-
sequent ecclesiastical relation to the British people ;
and this we do not choose that his holiness, or any
whom he appoints, shall participate or pretend to.
There is, then, ih the ne-tv Papal arrangement a new
spiritual claim set up.
2. There is a new ecclesiastical claim, involving an
illegality. This arises out of the connexion of Church
and State in this country, and the laws that regulate
that connexion, and are intended to preserve it from
foreign inroads. Now, it is very true that we, as
Dissenters, may think the union of Church and State
a great error—that political establishments of religion
are useless or pernicious—that all religions and reli-
gious bodies should be left to themselves—and that
the State should be confined to its own purely secular
province. Still, in looking at the present conduct of
the Papacy, in order to judge of its acts and deeds as
done by it, the question is not what we think, but
what Rome thinks—what she is and does—not what
may appear common to her and ourselves, but what is
common to her and England. Now, the Pope is both
Church and State in himself; Church and State are
connected in all Catholic countries. Whatever Pa-
pists may say about spiritual independence, and
against political legislation in religion, they do not
mean what we mean when we speak on these matters;
they have no objection to Church and State coming
to a good understanding if the latter will give its
gifts to, and make its laws for, the former, on their
terms, or as they may prescribe. For the Pope,
therefore, to set at nought the legal ecclesiastical
constitution of a country is a very different thing
from what that would be in a small and:purely spiri-
tual sect—it indicates an aim and purpose, it betrays
an animus, and is a sign of something beneath, which
ought not, I think, to be regarded with indifference.
The laws of this country forbid any ecclesiastic
taking the title of bishop of any English diocese, and
they reserve to the Sovereign, as a part of her pre.
rogative, the right to appoint to this dignity. Now
the Pope bas not appointed bishops with the names of
existing dioceses, and, so far, he does not violate the
letter of the law ; but, in constructing new English
sees, and instituting bishops who take their titles from
English cities, there can be no doubt that he violates
the spirit of the law. I go further than this, and
have no hesitation in saying that in what he has
done there is a deliberate and intended infringement
of the known ecclesiastical arrangements of the coun-
try, and an insolent purpose to defy and contemn the
royal prerogative. The Papal conduct is to be mea-
sured, not, I repeat, by what we, as Dissenters, may
think, but by what the Papacy means. We may care
nothing about the appointment of one bishop or the
other—we may think the bishop of a place, whether
Protestant or Romanist, a good way removed from
those of the Scriptures, who are never anything but
bishops of a people. That, I submit, is not the ques-
tion. The Pope well knows what the appointment
and the phraseology imply, and he means to imply
that there is neither Church nor religion in the land,
but what he calls the " Church of England" and the
Catholic faith, and that he is the only legitimate
source of ecclesiastical authority.

3. Lastly, there is in the recent Romanist proceed-
ings a new political anomaly and otience. This con.
sists in the fact that the pretended Archbishop of
Westminster is to be sent to this country as cardinal,
to use this style and dignity when here, and to exer-
cise the powers belonging to this rank. Now Ido not
profess to know very accurately just yet all that is
included in being a cardinal, but it seems to be under-
stood that the office is not exclusively or mainly,
ecclesiastical. The Pope is at once a spiritual sove-
reign and a temporal prince; he is the source, there-
fore, both of Church dignities and secular honours.
While a cardinal must be a Driest, the cardinalate
itself is a temporal distinction, or at least partakes
largely of that character. Dr. Wiseman, therefore,
in receiving this dignity from a foreign sovereign,
and in swearing to him temporal as well as spiri-
tual obedience, is said to become essentially the
subject of that sovereign, and the question is
whether it be not a political offence ior him to
come hither wearing and parading these honours?
Dr. Wiseman is either an Englishman, or he is
not. He was born in Spain, but of English or Irish
parents. He is generally spoken of as an English-
man. If he is so, and accepts a title from a foreign
potentate, be cannot use it legally here without re-
ceiving the Queen's permission. If he is not an Eng-
lishman, though he might be known amongst us by
his style and title, like any other foreigner of rank,
he could not exercise, in relation to Englishmen,
those powers which, in Italy, his rank might confer.
Lord Brougham could not be at once a French citi-
zen and an English Lord. Can Dr. Wiseman be at
the same time an English citizen and an Italian
Prince ?

These three points are what appear to me, on the
first blush of the thing, and so far as I have had time
to examine it, to constitute the peculiarities that cha-
racterise and condemn the recent extraordinary
movement of the Pope. In spite of all our distinctive
views as Dissenters—our opposition to the Church and
State principle—our advocacy of religious freedom
and equality, and so on—l am bound to say that, as
measured by what Rome is, knows, and means, I
regard its proceeding as involving insolent
spiritual
pretensions—the violation of legal ecclesiastical order
—and an intolerable and contemptuous disregard of
international etiquette and political proprieties.

_rchmen of a certain sort may learn something
from what they now so feelingly deplore. They are
beginning to be alarmed at the advances of Popery;
but they have beesi doing much to help that advance-
ment. They have been fostering the spirit and prac-
tice of the Papacy, and they should not wonder if the
successor of St. Peter bad got an erroneous and ex-
aggerated idea of the readiness of Britain to welcorite
his rule. We, of course, think that there are in the
offices of the English Church vestiges of former
errors, which naturally become the seeds of error
again ;while, by many of the clergy, such representa-
tions have been given of their priestly prerogatives,
arid of their sacramental syetern, as were at once op-
posed to the teaching we have had this morning
from St. Paul, and identical with the spirit arid
pretensions of the Papacy. Complaints are heard,
too, and soreness expressed, because, as they
say " the existence of our Church is ignored ;"
the validity of our orders denied." Alas !
have they net thus acted towards others? May they
not read, by the light of their indignation, the mean-
ing of the saying of the Lord, " With what measure
ye mete, it shall be measured to you again ?" They
have spoken of the " Bishop of Glasgow," the
" Bishop of Edinburgh," and even of the " Church of
Scotland"—meaning thereby their own community.
Did others not feel these things ? Was it nothing
for all the churches in Scotland to be " ignored ?"
and for the " orders" of every minister hut them-
selves to be invalidated ?" Some men should learn
a lesson, from their present trial, of that faith, order,
and charity that might make them at once apostolic
and more catholic, hut which would move them in a
direction opposite to Rome.
Some Dissenters, too, may lay to heart, with mani-
fest advantage, the lessons taught them by passing
events. It may be easy to argue against national
establishments and the royal supremacy ; the demon-
stration may be complete of the impropriety of secular
legislation in religion, and in favour of unrestricted
religious liberty ; that the law should know no man
in his religious character ; that all religious bodies
should be treated by the State equally and
alike, and every Church have a clear stage and
no favour. So far as Popery is concerned, I
am beginning to be suspicious of carrying this theory
practically out ; not, indeed, because the theory is
itself erroneous, but because Popery is not a thing to
which it can be applied. Popery is not simply and
purely a religion; it is a great and mighty ecclesias-
tical confederacy that aims at and desires political
pre-eminence; it is a terrible, compact, almost
physical unity, animated by a spirit of intense hatred
to real liberty, civil or religious. It requires to be
held in check by law, not because its tenets are not
true, but because its heait is not to be trusted ; not
because its creed is a corruption of the faith, but be-
cause its tendencies are inimical to freedom ; not be-
cause it "ignores " this er that Church, but because
it;is a power dangerous to the State. It will join the
Dissenter in his theoretical reasoning when it is low ;
will applaud him for liberality in striving to gain fur
its own "emancipation " when it wishes to rise ; will
shout at times for " religious liberty " and the "vo •
luntary. principle ;" bill smile and bow, arid take
everything it can, and look humble, modest, and de-
mure, as long as is necessary to gain its ends ; but
when once gained, and any opportunity for a spring
forward or upward opens, it will take either
with both
_force and ferocity, and care not if it
crush in its headlong career the simple souls
that served it in its need! Churchmen may
find that, after all, Popery is really worse then
Dissent; and Dissenters may find that an ecclesias-
tical establishment, though an evil, may, with a Pro-
testant Church, be a less evil than stark Popery with-
out an establishment.

The great lesson, however, for all serious and
earnest men I take to be that they should see the
necessity of joining with prayer, and watchfulness,
and holy living, an attention to what Fopery really
is. Is it " anti-Christ ? " Is it idolctrcus ? Is it
persecuting ? Is it just neither mere nor less than
what it has always been, and what it will ever he
When it has the power ? I think it, indeed, ridicu-
lous as well as hateful. The idea that an old idiot at
Rome should publish a document to the English
nation, to tell us that in order the more effectually
to serve us, he "had sought the assistance of the
blessed Virgin Mary, and of all the saints whose
virtues had made England illustrious, that they
would deign to obtain by their intercession with God
the happy success of his enterprise! " There cannot
be much to be afraid of in such blasphemous non-
sen9e ; the sound mind of the English people will not
easily accept the absurdities of Maryolatry and saint
worship. But contempt may sometimes expose 'to
danger as well as weakness. It may be well, there-
fore, to study ..ufresh the tenets of the Papacy ; to
understand its errors; to chronicle its crimes; to
mark well that its character is as immutable as its
pretensions are arrogant; and that everywhere and
always it has proved itself to be a thing which at
once insults God and degrades man.

THE MEDITERRANEAN FLEET.
Private letters from Port Mahon of the 27th of
October state that Sir William Parker's fleet was
then lying in that port, with the prospect of re-
maining for some time. The following account of
the movements of the fleet since it left Malta will be
interesting to those who have friends on board :
" On the evening of the 7th Sept., the squadron, under
the senior officer, Captain Dundas, of her Majesty's ship
Powerful, left Malta, and stood out for Cape Passero.
The same afternoon the Admiral, in her Majesty's ship
the Queen, with the Hogue and Terrible in company,
joined the rest of the squadron, which started for the
island of Pantellaria. The Admiral brought his family
out with him, although the cholera Ras raging in
the ship. Leaving the neighbourhood of Pantella-
ria on the 12th, we were next day off Maretimo,
and, standing still to the westward, on the 15th
off Cape Carbonara, on the south coast of Sardinia,
which was the rendezvous in case of parting com-
pany. We cruised off here for five days, looking
into Palmer and Cagliari Bays, and then we steered for
the Balearic Islands. We hove to off Port Mahon, on
the 238, and the admiral and ladies went in, in the
Scourge steamer, with the yellow Jack at the masthead,
to treat about our admittance inside. They came out
in the afternoon, and it was reported that the Spanish
authorities agreed to admit the whole of the squadron,
with the exception of the Queen, to free pratique, after
perfortninz eight days' quarantine inside the harbour,
but that they refused to admit the Queen, on board of
which ship the cholera still lingered. She had lost
thirty-three men by it since leaving Malta, on the 7th
September, which made her total loss about fifty-one—
pretty well out of 1,000 men and officers. Strange to
say, none of the latter suffered. The arrangement pro-
posed by the Port Mahon authorities not suiting the
admiral, we sailed fur Palma Bay, Majorca, and arrived
of that port on the 29th. The Scourge, which was sent
in on that day for provisions, stood in again on
the Ist of October, and received them. That
night we encountered a very heavy squall, which
caused most of the squadron to lose some sails.
Next morning, however, we were all in sight of each
other, with the exception of the Terrible, which rejoined
us the next day, The weather was now very stormy,
and made keeping the sea anything but pleasant work;
besides, the wear and tear of the ships and their gear was
a consideration; so, the cholera having by this time en-
tirely left the Queen, the Scourge was sent into Port
Mahon, to see on what terms they would admit us into
port. On the 7th we were all off shore, and the Scourge's
answer being favourable, the Queen and Caledonia were
towed in the neat afternoon, and the other ships the fol-
lowing morning. Wo moored below the Hospital Island,
and hoisted the yellow flag fur ten days. The Spanish
squadron arrived on the 10:h; it consisted of two cor-
vettes, two brigs, and two schooners. They ran past us
up the harbour in beautiful style, firing a salute in
honour or Queen Isabella's birthday. All our ships
blazed away for the same occasion at noon. We had
the run of the Lazaretto here, and Quarantine Island,
attended by guardians. On the 17th down
came the yellow flair, and four days later the
Scourge arrived from Malta, from which we bad had no
communication since the 14th of September. The
cholera is on its last legs at Malta, but it would not be
prudent for us to go there just yet. The Frolic brig
lost her purser and eleven men by it, having arrived a
few days previously from the Levant. She was ordered
to sea immediately.
_ _

" On the 14th and four subsequent days a court-mar-
tial on First-Lieutenant Drury, of the Royal Marines,
was held on board the Caledonia. The court consisted
of Captain Dundee, president, with Captains Purcell,
Carter, Hope, and Knox; judge-advocate, Mr. Brown,
clerk of the Queen. The prosecutor was Captain Wise
(flag-captain). The charges were eight in number,
accusing him of repeated acts of drunkenness, and dis-
obedience of orders on one or two occasions. Some of
them were proved, and the prisoner was sentenced to be
dismissed his ship and placed at the bottom of the list of
first-lieutenants of the Royal Marines. Lieutenant
Drury is now on board the Caledonia, awaiting a pas-
sage for Malta.

No one but the admiral really knows how long we
are to stop here, or where we go to next. My idea is
that we shall start for Malta about the end of No-
vember."

THE " TABLET ON THE HIEBABCHY.—On Satur-
day, October 30, 1847, the Tablet announced the " hierarchy"
in the following words :—" We are to hare a hierarchy. The
minute details of the change have not been determined on.
Much is left for the Vicars-Apostolic to suggest, and for the
Holy See to confirm. It is probable that even the seats cf
the bishops have not been fixed. Whether they will derive
their titles from the ancient sees, or from the new towns
which have risen into importance while the old ones have
been gradually declining, remains for further discussion,
If the old titles are convenient we shall no
doubt have them. It is idle to suppose, as some would hint,
that we are afraid of takiag them. The Holy See will be

ASTLEY'S ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE.
Under the Patronage of her Majesty and his Royal Highness

Proprietor and Manager, Mr. W. Batty.
Last Week of 31azeppa.
In consequence of the crowded Houses to witness the attractive and
magnifleent Spectacle of Mazeppa, which, with brilliant novelties
in the Wonders of the Arena, form the most varied and attractive
Entertainments in the Metropolis, it will be continued for a few
more nights.

Hitherto mingling only in the fashionable circles
~f the Prussian capital, a gay and veteran frequenter
f the Court and of the highest circles of the German
~ristocracy, all his predilections were naturally
nough on the side of the constituted authorities, and
inimical to those views which had found utterance in
'he language of civic insurrection. Hence no one
was " in any degree astonished at the course
tdopted by the Berlin Ministry directly
its councils bad passed under the. direction
of the old Count BRANDENBURG. His arbi-
trary notions were consistent at least with the
ninciples which had influenced himself personally
throughout the whole of his long career. They were
-he fruits of his own courtly education and of his al-
nost regal experiences.
Meanwhile due regard was given by all impartial
ipectators of the events transpiring in the kingdom of
Prussia, to the wants and wishes of the Prussian po-
julation. Acknowledging the reasonableness of the
oolicy adopted by the Count BRANDENBURG on the
;core of his own individual partialities, we nevertheless
found it impossible, like some of our contemporaries,
",o shut our eyes to the yet greater reasonableness of
,he democratic hopes and liberal aspirations preva-
lent among the German multitude. We preserved
very vividly in our remembrance the words and the
nearing of FRIEDERICH WILHELM at the moment of
the first outbreak in 1848, when fastening the na-
tional cockade with his own hand in his royal helmet,
Ind traversing the streets of his capital under the
shadow of the Germanic tricolor. To those acts of
rashness and enthusiasm the whole of the subse-
quent movement was in a great degree attribu-
table, and hence, to our thinking, there was a
monstrous violation of all faith in the after-conduct
)f the fickle and volatile representative of the house of
EIOHENZOLLERN. Fortunately for him, at the instant
when he felt his throne sinking under him into an
abyss of political anarchy he discovered in the person
,f his uncle the vindicator of his dynastic rights and
he conqueror of a hitherto successful and dominating
revolution. Without even the slightest experience in
the cares of office Count BRANDENBURG nevertheless
lisplayed on the instant an aptitude for power, arising
mt of the innate vigour and virility of his
intellect. Added, moreover, to his large mental ca-
:Alcides, the newly discovered statesman revealed
,nother quality scarcely expected in him, and one yet
more essential to him in his difficult and almost be-
wildering position—the quality of the most stern and
inflexible resolution. Grinding down the popular
tnovement under the iron heel of the soldiery, placing
Berlin in a state of siege during a protracted period,
-ndeavouring to intimidate Hesse and other of the
minor principalities by the Prussian dragoons, Count
BRANDENBURG compelled the populace, however
unwillingly, to bow before the arrogant presence of
of his Administration. In reference to the treatment
of Denmark, his conduct was, however, rather weak
than culpable. Since his elevation to the supreme
,eat in the Cabinet he had consented, somewhat in
-.:ontradiction to his usual custom, to permit rather
than to instigate warlike proceedings in favour of the
Schleswig insurgents. Happily for his reputation
his last Ministerial act was in a manner expiatory of
this shameful concession. Scarcely forty-eight hours
lad elapsed after the withdrawal of his principal
mtagonist RADOWITZ from the Ministry, in
consequence of the rejection of his bellicose plans as
the Minister for Foreign Affairs, when the veteran
Premier breathed his last in the very midst of the
oolitical crisis. What the result of this unexpected
I issolution may be, it would be somewhat
lifficult to surmise : still we cannot refrain from
indulging in a belief that good, and good alone, can
Follow both in regard to Prussia herself and to the
rest of the Germanic Confederation. Statesmen can
cow be selected not pledged to the arbitrary prin-
ciples hitherto indulged in by Count BRANDENBURG.

We are rejoiced to observe that the admirable letter
of Lord JOHN RUSSELL to the Bishop of DURHAM IS
producing the most happy effect throughout the
length and breadth of this Protestant land, for while
it has been received by all true Protestants with
leartfelt delight, it has effectually unmasked those
traitors in the camp, who having acknowledged in
'xplicit terms the QUEEN'S supremacy, have been the
most forward in leading their floclo, " step by step,
-o the very verge of the precipice." These men are
t'or very shame forced to affect a sort of disapprobation
of the Papal usurpation, but it is expressed so gin-
4.erly, and is accompanied by such manifest endeavours
•o sow divisions in the Protestant camp (teste the
letters of Lord JOHN MANNERS and of Mr. DISRAELT,
And the reply of the Bishop of EXETER to the address
)f his clergy), that it is in fact an encouragement to
the myrmidoms of sarcedotal despotism to proceed
in their endeavours to subjugate the QUELN and
people of this realm, and a declaration that
there is no unwillingness on the part of those
who " repudiate the name of Protestant" to aid,
‘ssist, and abet them in destroying the independence
of the State. If we needed any further proof of the
real feelings of this party, we should find it in the lead-
ing articles of their organs in the press. There,
under cover of. the anonymous, they speak out more
fully than either Lord Jour; :MANNERS or Mr.
DIsRAELI have thought it prudent to do, and we
Accordingly find that in their journal this party ex-
pressly state that it is " unebcoming in a Minister to
declare publicly and officially that the country is
attached to the glorious principles of the Reformation."
To this declaration we bind them, and we ask how
long the Protestant Church is to be desecrated and
its interests endangered by the presence within its
camp of those who deny the QUEEN'S supre-
macy, who repudiate the name of Protes-
tant, and who declare that it is unbe-
coming in a Minister to state that the country is
attached to the glorious principles of the Reformation ?
It is to the baleful presence of these men as teachers
in our Universities that we are to attribute the recent
perversions to Rome ; they are traitors and spies in
the camp, and the people of England, on whom Lord
JOHN RUSSELL may rely with confidence, the Pro-
testant people of England call upon him to
adopt measures for the immediate vindication
of the QUEEN'S supremacy, and for the removal
from within the gates of those unworthy sons of the
Church of England who, JUDAS-like, betray her
with a kiss. Tbere may be some difficulty in re-
moving such of the Romanising clergy as think it
consistent with decency and honesty to propagate
Popish principles, while professing allegiance to a
Protestant Church and receiving its emolu-
ments, from the preferments they hold in the
Church and in the Universities, but there
can be no such difficulty in removing these
deniers of the supremacy of the QUEEN from places of
trust and profit under the Crown ; and more espe-
cially does it become the duty of the Minister of the
Crown to recommend such removal when the office is
one which gives the holder of it an opportunity of
perverting the sentiments of the immediate heir to
sacerdotal despot,
of
the Crown, and of training him up in servile fear
insteadthought oufudin theof
exercisea
of that freedom
inde-
pendence of action which best becomes the free sove-
reign of a free nation. Looking back to
the occur-
rences of the last three years ; considering the
numerous members of the house of WILBERFORCE
who have been recently perverted to Rome ; consi-
dering the pains taken by the Bishop of OXFORD to
encourage, by every means in his power, those
practices of the " unworthy sons of the
Church," which Lord JonN RUSSELL has
so indignantly denounced, we ask the Noble
Lord whether he thinks it proper that that
Right Rev. Prelate should continue to hold the office
of tutor to the Prince of WALES ? Whether he
thinks it decent that the leader of those contumacious
priests, who denounce the legal judgment of a court
of law, and deny the supremacy of the QUEEN,
should continue to exercise the functions of Lord
High Almoner to her MAJESTY ?

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The Debats states that the Committee of Perma-
nence assembled on Thursday. One of its members
declared in the most formal manner that it was within
his knowledge thAt, on the 29th October, in the even-
ing, twenty-six of the most active members of the
Seciety of the 10th December held an extraordinary
sitting, in the course of which there was discussed a
proposition for the assassination of the President of
the Assembly, M. DtJPIN, and of General CHANGAR-.
VIER, as being the two great obstacles to the accom-
plishment of the designs of the society, which propo-
sition having been unanimously adopted, those present
proceeded to draw lots, by placing twenty-four rolls
of blank paper in a hat, and two rolls inscribed
the one with the letter C, the other with the letter
The person who drew the letter C at once de-
clared that he was ready to execute the orders of the
society, the person who drew the letter D remained
silent. The president of the meeting announced that
the day of execution wou:d be fixed afterwards.
The Committee of Permanence having received this
communication remained sometime in deliberation,
and at rising MNI. BAZE, LEON FAUCHER, and
Aloetur proceeded to the office of the Minister of the
Interior, with whom they had a long interview ; of
the result of the interview our readers may judge
from the following announcement, which appears in
the Itioniteur of yesterday :
" A decree issued on the 7th of this month on the re-
port of the Minister of the Interior, and submitted to
the Couacil of State, orders the dissolution of the Society
for Mutual Relief established in Paris under the title of
the Society of the 10th of December."
M. FERDINAND BARROT has arrived in Paris from
Turin.

By the returns which relate to navigation, for the
nine months ending the 10th October last, the number of
vessels entered inwards was 24,623 ; while, in the corres-
ponding nine months of last year, it was 23,672. The
amount of the tonnage in the former case was 4,593,445 ; in
the latter it was 4,612,789. Judging from the number of
clearances outwards, the shipping trade, instead of being
injured by the repeal of the navigation laws, has already
been benefited by that measure; for the number of vessels
cleared outwards in the first nine months of the present year
was 23,542, and the tonnage amounted to 4,677,162; while
in the corresponding nine months of 1849, the number of
vessels cleared outwards was 21,781, and the amount of ton-
nage was 4,301,935. These facts do not altogether quadrate
with the predictions of utter ruin to our shipping trade from
the repeal of the navigation laws, which yere so liberally in-
dulged in by the Protectionists.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
3,000 hales. The market was very quiet, and prices
were irregular.—Railway Shares were flat.
The statement of the Bank of England for the week,
to the 2d ins►. is not important in respect to the changes
that it presents. The bullion increased a little, and it
is remarkable that there is less than 50,0001. of silver in
the issue department, a proof that the Bank hai been
pretty well drained for exportation. The circulation has
been reduced, the amount of the advances upon other

The negotiation of bills of exchange upon the prin-
cipal continental cities was effected yesterday upon
rather more favourable terms, in some instances, for
parties having debts to discharge abroad. Bills upon
Amsterdam, date 90 days, were taken at 11 174 to 181,
and upon Antwerp at 25 37i to 40; Paris 25 35 to 40;
Trieste was not quite so good; Frankfort 119/ 4, being
firm; Hamburgh a shade lower, 13 8/, the rate at Ham-
burgh last Tuesday having fallen 4.
The Honourable East India Company drew bills on its
possessions during the fortnight ending the 6th inst., to
the amount of 164,6851.
_

The railway traffic receipts for the week do not pre-
sent, comparatively with th© like date of 1849, quite
