RENTERS OF DRURY-LANE THEATRE.
A meeting of the renters of Drury-lane Theatre took
place on Saturday at the Auction Rooms of Messrs.
Robins, Covent-garden, Captain Carpenter in the chair.
Some discussion arose relative to the exclusion of the
press, but it was ultimately resolved that that body
should be admitted, the chairman stating that there
could be nothing in the present discussion that the renters
would wish concealed.
The report entered fully into the present grievances
of the new renters, and stated that their grounds of cum..
plaint consisted in the following causes :—First, that the
management of the theatre was conducted by the sub-
committee of the company of proprietors, who had no
bond fide interest in the result of such management. Se-
condly, that the affairs of the theatre were conducted
without any reference to the wishes or views of the trus•
tees, cud that the interests of the new renters wore not
duly protected ; and, thirdly, that the sub-committee
sought to make payment as against the new renters, and
iu priority to their rent-charges, which were not au-
thorised by Act of Parliament. It appeared from the ac-
counts that the payments for salaries amounted to 5001.
per annum. The theatre had been let for four years from
the 26th of December, 1849. Mr. Anderson was the
lessee for the first six months in each year, and Messrs.
Juilien and Gye for the last six months in each year.
Mr. Anderson's rent was 2,5001. for the first season, and
2,875/. for each succeeeding season ; and Messrs.
Jullien and Gye paid 1,000/. for the first season, and
1,1421. 17s. for the remaining three seasons. Mr. An-
derson was restricted to the legitimate drama, and
Messrs Jullien and Gye were restricted from it. The
report concluded by recommending the necessity of the
renters possessing some controlling power of their own.
The CHAIRMAN entered at some length into the ac-
counts of the body, and stated it to be his opinion that
the charges made by the proprietors, especially the sa-
laries which were of so large an amount, were illegal
against the renters. He considered the most valuable

moment involved the loss of those free admissions. He
next alluded to the amount of arrears which existed,
namely, 14,000/., and stated that the trustees were
urging the renters' right for its payment.
Some discussion ensued as to the right of free admis-
sion which the renters possessed.
The CHAIRMAN said that each renter had a right of
free admission on every occasion when the theatre was
opened, to any part of the house, excepting a few certain
boxes. The number of those boxes was formerly
fifteen, hut lately three more had been added, making
in all eighteen. A great number of seats had been par-
titioned off, amounting in all to between 400 and 500;
but he could assure the renters that they could occupy
any seat they pleased that had not previously been
taken in any part of the house, with the exception of the
above named eighteen boxes.
The report was unanimously adopted.
A cordial vote of thanks was given to the trustees for
their continued efforts for the interests of the renters.

A very long and desultory- conversation ensued, bear-
ing principally on the subject of the renters' grievances.
After a vote of thanks to the chairman, the meeting
separated.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
FROM TIE MORNING PAPERS oy THIS DAY.
TIMES.—If it he the triumph of logical dexterity to
prove by premises apparently true conclusions un-
doubtedly false, his Eminence Cardinal Wiseman ought
to rank with the most adroit of the schoolmen. After
having elithoretely argued for the necessity, legality, and
expediency of the recent establishment of a Reman Ca-
tholic hierarchy- in this kingdens, he has actually the
hardihood' to attempt to prove that no such act has taken
plat e. Thetewe may do him no injustice, we subjoin
the pissane to which we entitle:— •
" In this document, and in many other similar ones,
including the Premier's letter, the Pope's . acts are
spoken of as real, and taking effect. Tire Pope has as-
sumed a right; he has parcelled out the land, ho has
named archbishops and bishops. according to the
oath taken by non-Catholics, the Pope not only ought
not to have, but really has no', power or jurisdiction,
spiritual or ecclesiastical, in these realms, it follows that,
according to them, the Pope's ecclesiastical acts with
regard to England are mere nullities, and tire reputed to
have no existence. It is as though the Pope had not
spoken, and had not issued any document. To act
otherwise is to recognise an efficient act of power on his
part."
The syllogism which this passage involves seems to run
as follows :—That which a man has no power to do he
does not do. The Pope, according to the Oath of Su-
premacy, has no power to parcel out the land, eec. ;
therefore the Pope has not done it. Surely it ought not
to have escaped so acute a controversialist that the word
" power" is an ambiguous one, signifying, in the first
of these propositions, strength or ability ; and, in the
second, right or jurisdiction. The Pope has, undoubt-
edly, no right within these realms, but the member of
his spiritual subjects gives him power, and the very es-
sence of our complaint against him is that he has ex-
erted that unrighteous power to disturb otir Church
and insult our Crown. It is very expedient, not
merely for the right determination of the present discus-
sion, but for the coercion of that population dwelling in
" ignorance, vice, depravity and " crime," who inhabit
the less favoured parts of Westminster and other large
cities of this island, to set this right; for it is melancholy
to think how easy it would be for a detected pickpocket to
apply to his use the logical weapons of the Cardinal,
and to argue that, since by law he bad no "power"
wrongfully to deprive any one of his property-, it must
follow by necessary consequence that he had not done
so. In acknowledgment of the logical treat which Dr.
Wiseman has given us. we will beg to propound to his
Eminence a dilemma in which we flatter ourselves he
will find no ambiguous terms to mislead him. If the
Pope's acts are null, why do you call yourself Cardinal
Archbishop of Westminster, and claim to govern as ordi-
nary the counties of Middlesex, Hertford, and Essex, and
those of Surrey, Sussex, Kent, Berks, and Hants, with
the islands annexed, as administrator with ordinary
jurisdiction? If the Pope's acts are valid, how are we
misled and deceived in repudiating them! But either the
Pope's acts are null or valid, therefore either you are
not Archbishop, or we are not deceived in objecting
to you. It seems to have escaped the penetration
of the Cardinal, that acts may be perfectly null and
void as against the parties sought to be prejudiced
by them; such, for instance, as acts of spoliation
or invasion of public or private rights—acts done
under assumed jurisdiction, and so forth; but that
these same acts may be perfectly valid as against the
party performing them, to subject him to punishment if
they be breaches of the law; to public indignation and
reprobation if, though within the letter of the law, they
he evasive of its spirit and prejudicial to the public wele
fare; and to contempt if they be merely gratuitous and
tfficious assumptions of power which nobody recognises
or regards. The alleged nullity of the Acts of the Pope
cannot, therefore, protect his Eminence when he chooses
to treat those nullities as valid from becoming fairly the
object either of the contempt or indignation of the
people of England. The Cardinal pleads earnestly for
contempt—like Mawworm in the Hypocrite, he " likes
to be despised," because he well knows that out of this
nettle, contempt, he can pluck this flower, impunity.
With every wish to oblige him in so reasonable a de-
sire, and with a full sense of the strong claims which
he has to a favourable hearing, we are compelled most
reluctantly to express our conviction that the Car-
dinal is not so contemptible a person as his well-
known humility would lead him to represent himself,
and that he is not that stbsolute nullity in power which
ho unquestionably is in right. If, indeed, all were
sound within our fortress we might well afford to smile
at foreign aggression, and censign the dignity of our
titular Archbishop to the care of the juvenile population
of that district in Westminster wherein he delights to
roam; but, alas! all is not well within; treason has been
active in our Church, and those who are powerless as an
independent force become truly formidable when con-
sidered as a nucleus round which may gather those ele-
ments of schism and disorder whose existence it is im-
possible to deny. We can count our open and avowed
enemies, but we have no certain mark by which to know
our intestine foes. Admitting, then, to Dr. Wiseman,
that, taken by himself with reference to what he is and
' what he represents, he is as worthy of being contemned
and ignored as he is desirous of this stingless martyr-
dom, we are obliged to conclude that in the present
circumstances of the Church of England ho is still a
dangerous personage. The spark that falls harmlessly
on the hearth may excite legitimate terror in a powder-
magazine. It is not requisite to examine at any great
length the flimsy analogies upon which the esta-
blishment of the Roman Catholic hierarchy is sought to
be justified. In the colonies there is, properly speaking,
no established church. In Australia a certain sum is
devoted annually to the purposes of public worship, and
divided among the differout denominations of Christians,
in proportion to their numbers as ascertained by the last
census. The Bishoprics of Jerusalem and Gibraltar are
clearly distinguishable, as claiming no territorial juris-
diction or right of government in the dominions of any
foreign power. Tho case of Ireland is no doubt a
peculiar one. The immense numerical preponderance
of the Roman Catholics in that country, and the anoma-
lous position of the Established Church there, seem to
justify a departure from the principles which have ever
induced the State to hie .k with the greatest jealousy on
the aggressions of the Roman Catholic priesthood. It
was felt that to ignore the religion of seven millions
of the inhabitants of Ireland would be arrogant
and impracticable—it was felt that the numerical
predoreinence of Roman Catholics in Ireland
was a fact, and must be dealt with as such.

inhabitants. It was also hoped, and in the 'desperate
state of Ireland almost any experiment seemed fair,
that by recognizing the already existing Roman Catholic
hierarchy in that miserable country, its priests might be
weaned from perseverance in that heartless and hopeless
agitation which was daily draining the exhausted re-
sources and wasting the attenuated strength of the land.
It was hoped, too, that
in exchange for the recognition of
their spiritual dignity, the Roman Catholic hierarchy
might be induced to give some assistance, or, at any rate,
to offer no obstruction to the attempts of the Govern-
ment to dispel that dense cloud of ignorance which the
flocks of these same bishops seem to have made their ele-
ment. How these reasonable expectations have been
answered is now, alas! a matter of history. The Pope
in his rescripts has openly denounced and proscribed the
Acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, and the
Synod of Thurles has afforded us a specimen of the ad-
vantages of aregular Roman Catholic hierarchy by spurn-
ing the colleges which Parliament had funded and her
Majesty condescended to patronise. Could Dr. WisPtnen
really suppose that the results of the recognition of the
Roman Catholic hierarchy in Ireland were looked
upon with so much complacency by statesmen
and people of England as to reconcile them
to the establishment of a similar body here ?
Does there exist in England one of the excep-
tional circumstances which seemed to justify this depar-
ture from principle in Ireland? Is the majority of our
population Catholic? Is the Established Church in this
kingdom the faith of a small minority? Is the social
and political state of this country so wretched that we
are forced to seek the only means of its amelioration at
the hands of intriguing priests and reckless agitators?
Is our English Government so totally devoid of influence
over our people that it is forced to seek for assistance
fhom any source, however baneful? If these things are
not so, the case of Ireland may be deplored by some as
a departure from principle,—maybe justified by others
as a timely concession to an inevitable necessity,—may
be denounced by the enthusiast, approved by the poli-
tician, and palliated by the philosopher,—but can in no
respect fetter the discretion or control the will of the
people of England.
DAILY NE WS.—There are three religions in Eng_
land, There is that of the Protestants, that of the Ca.
tholics, and that of the mummers. Of the national faith
it is not our purpose to speaks neither are we concerned
just now with the distinctive dogmas or practices of
Rome. Our business is with those dissemblers who
have already wrought so much of mischief in the land;
and who at this moment are busy with new schemes of
double-dealing and deception. A mummer is defined
by our standard etymologists to be one who in a mask
and personatemi dress performs solemn absurdities; and
the grave follies thus enacted are called " mummeries."
Realities, whether of temporal or spiritual import, can
never be classe,l with these. Gorgeous ceremonies,
allegoric pomp, and all the various forms in which
national feelings, social ideas, or religious beliefs seek
for expression,—all these arc genuine, full of moan-
ing, instinct with the actual spirit of the time It i.
their counterfeit that is the cheat; toe parade of
their costumes, and mimicry of their utterances, that
alone deserve the name ef " mummerit s. So long
as the people of England believe in the mystic rites
and awful sanctions of Cettiolicity, the pageantry of Ca-
tholic worship was a reality, and no sham. We have
long since learned to disbelieve in its exclusive and
mysterious way of salvation. Our fathers, just three
centuries ago, protested apinst the authority of Rome,
and disavowed their belief in all thole doctrines that
rested on that authority. What they retained was corn-
, paratively simple, and needed not the illustration of em-

blazoned forms. Therefore they discarded, and we con-
tinue to disuse them. They seemed to us the outward
itymbols of grave errors; but so long as the errors are
sincerely cherished by any section of the community,
we may regret, but we do not treat with levi y, these
()beer vane- s. The case is very different, when, without
the faith in Rome, her offices are parodied, her vestments
borrowed, and the very tone of her voice mimicked by
men who have the pay of Protestantism in their p .clrets.
We war not with opinion in matters of religien, but we
war with fraud; we object to "mummeries," to the his-
tri A-lie representation in the house of God, of that which
neither the actors nor the audience profsss to believe.
It was this which Lord John Russell obviously in-
tended to rebuke in the latter part of his celebrated
letter to the Bishop of Durham; and which he charac-
terised by a phrase the most English and the most ex-
pressive that he could have chosen for that purp-ee. It
was the inasquing and make-believe imitations of the
Catholic ritual that the Premier meant to brand as
" mummeries." And this palpable distinction has been
so universally appreciated, that the whole of the contro-
versy beteeeen Cardinal Wiseman and his opponents has
been conducted without reference to a subject in which
the adherents of the Pope feel that they have no con-
cern. No English Catholic, with the single exception 4
that sensible gentleman, Mr. Philip Howard, M.P. for
Carlisle, bad taken the contumelious epithet as applicable
to the rites and ceremonies of Rome. Even our sensi-
tive neighbours on the western side of the Channel,
though little in love with the Whigs for their anti-papal
policy, do not seem to have even suspected Lord John
of intending to ridicule their mode of worship. They have
their own causes of complaint, but this is not one of
them. The Celts are either Catholics or Protestants,
but there is hardly a Puseyite to be found amongst
them. Puseyisua is looked upon by both creeds there
as a mere time-serving evasion—a barren hybrid—a
shuffling, shabby, sophistical effort at compromise
wherein no earnest spirit can find lasting peace. A new
dodge is now on foot. True to themselves the Puseyites
have agreed to play a double part. Their bishops are
ready to go with the tide of Protestant feeling; while
their politicians affect sympathy with their Catholic
brethren. Their places and perquisites are to be kept
by puffing out the eltndles, and walking with unbent
knees up the aisle; while party recruits for election
purposes are to be enlisted by loud and vehement de-
nunciations of the anti-Catholic Whigs. The most im-
pudent part of the hoax consists in affecting to think
that " mummeries" in the Prime Minister's letter was
aimed at the Catholics—not at them. Their
solitary organ has been perseveringly giving
forth this as the true interpretation of the
notable phrase. It is hoped thereby to attain a
double end—to divert indignation from their own
apeings and antics, until the national wrath shall have
died a Nay, and, to catch adherents amongst thoae who
are offended at the resistance shown to the nomination
of bishops in England by a foreign prince. For
Puseyism has from the outset been quite as much of a
political as a religious movement. Its leaders in Parlia-
ment are the foremost allies and advocates of absolu-
tism. The only apologists of lisynsu were found among
their ranks; and even the desperate cause of Montemolin
finds in them defenders. We speak not of the Tory
party generally, many of whom, to do them justice,
abhor and are not ashamed to express their detestetiou
of continental despotism; and whose hearty zeal for the
Queen's supremacy rests on no base adulation of royalty,
but in the truly Protestant conviction that it is better
that the Church should be ruled over by the chief of the
laity than by the chief of the clergy. The men of
" mummeries' in the Church are men of sliding scales
and slippery opinions in the senate. The poet's spirit
must have prophetically seen as from afar what now is
passing daily before our ey.-s, wheri he exclaimed—
" Behold the isle, by palmers, pilgrims trod,
Men bearded. bald, cowl'd, uneowl'd, shod, unshod;
Peel'd, patch'd, and piebald, linsey-woolsey brothers,
Grave mummers!"
'Tis eertain that the author of the " Dunciad" did not
mean to ridicule read Romanists. Who, then, could he
have intended if not the trimmers of our time, whose
ambition is to lead by dint of peculiar dexterity, and
whose fate is to ruin by their faithlessness and folly all
who put their trust in them, in Church or State. The
day is past when any set of men, or clique, or sect, can
win their way to power in this country by a double-faced
policy. All the chicane of learned equivoque and all
the profundity of esoteric meaning is nothing worth,
compared with the faculty of impressing men with the
conviction of straightforwardness, ceu age, and sincerity.

EXHIBITION 0 F THE WORKS OF
INDUSTRY OF ALL NATIONS, 1851.

The following are the decisions of her Majesty's
commissioners with respect to the rejection and se
lection of articles by local committees :-
1. The local committees of the United Kingdom,
have been made fully aware that the commissioners de-
cided at a very early period that each local committee
would have the function of determining the principles on
which the selection of articles fur transmission to Lon-
don would be made ; and of certifying their approval of
the articles sent for exhibition before they could be re•
ceived for examination by the commissioners in the
building.
"2. The commissioners hare decided further that
they will not interfere with the discretion of the local
committees in their allotment of space to individual
exhibitors.

" 3. The commissioners have now to announce that
the whole of the demands for floor or counter space i❑
the building which the local committees of the United
Kingdom have returned exceed 417,000 superficial feet.
Thee demands exceed the amount of available space
for the United Kiagdom by about 210,000 superficial
feet. The amount of wall space demanded is only
200,000 superficial feet, which is very much below that
available.

"4. The number of persons proposing to exhibit is
upwards of 8,200.

" 5. The commissioners have proceeded to adjuq the
proportions of fl,Kir or counter space which it appeared
desirable to them that the four sections of the Exhibi-
tion should occupy in the building. The amount of wall
space yet available being very large, a cons,derable pro-
portion can be applied in favour of those exhibitors who
are able to substitute vertical for floor or counter space
in respect of articles which otherwise could not be re
ceived for want of room. The local committees are re-
quested to make this known, and to apply for this addi-
tional space whenever they consider the articles worthy
of admission. The term' wall' not only includes vettieel
or
re lactogninogf u sppcet but also affords the means for thet cases.
cc 6. Upon the averages, furnished by the whole United
Kingdom, and obtained by dividing the total amount of
space apportioned to each section by the cumber of ex-
hibitors in that section, the commissioners, as a general
erection
rule, have allotted to each local committee an amount of
space in each section, in proportion to the number of ex-
hibitors which have been returned by each committue.
" 7. The commissioners are desirous that each local
committee in allotting space to the individual exhibitors
should, as far as possible, maintain the proportions of the
four sections allotted to it, so that in the ultimate ar-
rangement of the whole Exhibition the spice which eech
section may occupy should agree as closely as may be
with the spices fixed by the commissioners.
" 8. As in many cases the amount of space demanded
by a local committee has been inevitably reduced, and as
it is essential in every case that only those articles
which do honour to our industrial skill as a nation should
be admitted, it becomes indispensable that some selec-
tion should be made, and it is most necessary that this
should be done in such manner as to represent the in-
dustry of the district with perfect fairness and do the
fullest credit to its industrial position.
" 9. The local committees will perceive that it would
be quite impossible on the part of the commissioners to
send a sufficient number of persons possessed of technical
knowledge to decide on the merits of the varied articles
of the manufacturing districts. The commissioners
therefore rely on the local committees for the proper '
distribution of the aggregate space allotted to them.
The local committees will readily understand from deci-
sions 103,to107,• that the commissioners recognize merit
in whatever form it may present itself, and that they
are prepared to look for it in the cheapest fabric, if
distinguished as being superior in its class, as in the
highest forms of artistic excellence. The success of the
Exhibition, and the appreciation of our industrial pro-
ducts by the world, will to a great extent depend upon
the manner in which the committees distribute the space
allotted to them. Articles possessing none of the pecu-
_ .

liar merits already indicated would— be detrimental to
this manifestation of industrial skill. In the hands of
the local committee'', therefere, the commissioners leave
with perfect confidence the credit of their respective
distriets.

" 10. The commissioners have caused copies of each
application for space to be prepared, which are herewith
transmitted to the respective local committees for re-
vision and correction where necessary. Tho local com-
naitte2s will proceed to give the allotments of space, and
to examine the applications with groat deliberation
Should the local committees ft el authorised in allocating
space to articles which either are not yet completed or
which they have not personally examined, they will do
so only with a full confidence in the character and ma-
nufacturing skill of the intended producer, and with the
entire conviction that the article when finished will be
peculiarly worthy of exhibition. The commissioners
rely that all inquiries will have been duly male, and
that the local committees will be fully satisfied liefore
they give their vouchers for the admission of the arti-
cles ; these voucherswill be considered as tantamount
to their impalas(' approbation of the articles, kid wilt
entitle the articles to admission to the hui!ding. Shoull
the committee desire to call in the aid of competent
parsons not being members, they are of course at li-
berty to do so.
" 11. Although the commissioners have mails &finite
allotments of apace to the loud committees, it will still
rest absolutely with the discretion of each to determine
whether they will admit the present applicants; and
whether they will reduc., or increase the space demanded
by each applicant. In no case must a I,cal committee
increase the amount of the total allotted to it by the
commissioners. The local committees have full pwer,
without any further application to the commissioners,
should they be dissatisfied on further investigation with
the character or excellence of the works already returned
by them to the commissioners, to apportion any part cf

the space allotted to them to other exhibitors than the se
who may have sent in demands before the 31st October.
" 12. In order to provide for the proper reception of
articles in the building as soon as they shall arrive, it is
oiiviouslv necessary that the places for large groups
of articles shall be fixed bef.re they are admitted;
and so far as is censi.tent with this nec4ssity, it has
been the desire of tho commissioners to give the
utmost latitude of time to enable the local committees
make due inquiries into the fitness of articles fcr
exhibition; and the commissioners l.,ve therefore ap-
pointed so late a day as the 10th of Docent:ther as the
last on which vouchers can pos.ibly be received; so that
there will he an interval of some time during which it
will be in the power of the local committees to whom
space is allotted to consider the best distribution of it in
every way. At the same time, as soon as a local com-
mittee has positively tilled up or cancelled any applica•
lion for space, the commissioners r« quest that it may be
immediately returned to them, rind not delayed until the
10th 'of December.

" 13. The commissioners do not propose in any case
to inquire into any differences of opinion, should any
arise, respecting the amount of space which the local
committees may allot to individual exhibitors; and the
commissioners only propose to exercise the powers of
rejection and selection which they have reserved to them-
selves to the extent of seeing that no articles contrary to
the decisions have been inadvertently passed by any
local committee. At the same time, if any productions
shall have been rejected by any local committee, and' the
proprietor of them shall desire to appeal against the de-
ciiion, be competent for him to address the com-
missioners through the local committee, who will forward
the appeal, with their own observations, to the commis-
sioners; and the commissioners, upon consideration of
the circumstances, will then decide whether the rejected
articles may be examined under an appeal, at the ex-
pense of the appellant.

" 14. With the view of providing against the exhibi-
tion of duplicate articles of manufacture, the commis-
sioners, in cases where duplicates may have been ad-
mitted by different local committees, will call upon the
exhibitors of such duplicates to produce a certificate
from the actual makers, stating which of the exhibitors
has arranged with the maker to be proprietor of the ab-
solute and exclusive right of sale and distribution of
such article, and the preference of admission will be
given to that exhibitor who is the sole proprietor. Per-
haps the local committees may think it advisable to
adopt a similar regulation. The local committees will
doubtless be sensible of the importance of taking care
not to admit either unnecessary duplicates of any
machine or article, or machines or articles having only
very unimportant differences, especially when such ar-
ticles are large.

"M. DIGBY WYATT, Secretary to the Executive
Committee,
" I, Old Palace-yard, London, Nov. 20, 1850."

Note.—These are as follows:

" 103. In the department of Raw Materials and Pro-
duce, for instance, prizes will be awarded upon a con-
sideration of the value and importance of the article and
the superior excellence of the particular specimens ex-
hibitt cl; and in the case of prepared materials, coming
under this head of the Exhibition, the juries will take
into account the novelty and importance of the prepared
product, and the superior skill and ingenuity manifested
in the process of preparation.

. .
" 104. In the department cif Machinery, the prizes
will be given with reference to novelty in the invention,
superiority in the execution, increased efficiency, or in-
creased economy in the use of the article exhibited. The
importance, in a social or other point of view, of the
purv-tses to which the article is to be applied, will also
be taken into consideration, as will also the amount of
the difficulties overcome in bringing the invention to
perfection.

105. In the department of Manufactures, those arti-
cles will be rewarded which fulfil in the highest degree
the conditions specified in the sectional list—viz., in-
creased usefulness, such as permanency in dyes, im-
proved forms and arrangements in articles of utility,
&c.; superior quality, or superior skill in workmanship;
new use of known materials; use of new materials; new
eombinations of materials, as in metals and pottery;
beauty of design in form or colour, or both, with refer-
ence to utility; cheapness, relatively to excellence of
production.

" 106. In the department of sculpture, models, and
the plastic art, the rewards will have reference to the
beauty and originality of the specimens exhibited, to
improvements in the processes of production, to the ap-
plication of art to manufactures, and in the case of mo-
dels to the interest attaching to the subject they repre-
sent.

" 107. These general indications are sufficient to show
that it is the wish of the commissioners, us far as pos..
sible to reward all articles in any department of the Ex-
hibition which may appear to competent judges to pos-
sess any decided superiority, of whatever nature that su-
periority may be. It is the intention of the commis-
sioners to reward excellence in whatever form it is pre-
sented, and not to give inducement to the distinctions of
a merely individual competition. Although the commis-
sioners have determined on having three medals of dif-
ferent sizes and designs, they do not propose to instruct
the juries to award them as first, second, or third in de..
gree for the same class of subjects. They do not wish
to trammel the juries by any precise limitation; but they
consider that the juries will rather view the three kinds
of medals as a means of appreciating and distinguishing
the respective characters cf the subjects to be rewarded,
and not of making distinctive marks in the same class cf
articles exhibited. They fully recognise that excellence
iu production is not only to be looked for in high-priced
goods, in which much cost cf labour and skill has been
employed, but they encourage the exhibition of low.
priced fabrics, when combining quality with lowness of
price or with novelty of production. They can readily
conceive that juries will be justified in giving the same
class medal to the cheapest calico print, made for the
Brazilian or other South American market, as they would
to the finest piece of mousseline de soie or mousseline de
laine, if each possessed excellence of its own kind."

ATTEMPTED MURDER of a POLICEMAN

NEAR BRENTWOOD.
During the whole of Friday and Saturday consider-
able excitement has prevailed in the vicinity of the quiet
village of Billericay, in consequence of information re-
ceived by the police that Rob,2rt Bamborough, constable
136, of the ES,CX county constabulary, had been mur-
dered by a man named James Wood, a native of thc
locality, who had, on Wednesday last, been convicted of
night poaching baloie Mr. J. Spiny and another of the
l: ex magistrates, and sentenced summarily by them t,)
three months' imprisonment. From particulars ob-
tained on Saturday morning in the neighbourhood of the
outrage, it app-ars that the prisoner Wood, after corn-
mital, was handed over to constable Bamborough to con-
vey him to Brentwood and place him in the custody of
Mr. Suporintandaut Colson, who was to convey him to
Chelmsford gaol.
Bamborough proceeded with his prisoner on the road
towards Brentwood, when the prisoner, not a mile from
Billericay, end near to a roadside pond, wrested himself
away from the constable, and, dashing away his hand-
cuffs, beat the officer most unmercifully. He then
rushed upon the constable, and pushed him headlong
into the pond, at the same time jumping upom him, and
filling his mouth with mud. The prisoner then ran
away, leaving the policeman, as he no doubt considered,
to breathe his last, Providentially however, juA at
that moment a boy came tip and dragged the poor fellow
out of the pond, so that his life was saved. He was
shortly afterwards taken home, and very promptly at-
tended by Dr. Carter, of Billericay. He was on Satur-
day declared to be out of danger, though seriously in
j ured. The ruffian who thus attacked him escaped, it is
supposed, to Tilbury, when it is thought he has crossed
to Gravesend.

Tun RISEN COLLIERY EXPLOSION. ••••••• The inquest
on the bodies of John Strickland and Thomas Edmonds, who
were killed by the explosion in the Black Vein Colliery at
Risen, on the 15th inst., has just terminated, after one ad-
journment. A good many witnesses were examined, from
whose evidence it appeared that the deceased were working
together iu the shaft in which the explosion took place with
a lamp between them. It transpired, also, that the men
sometimes work in the colliery with naked candles when
they think there is no danger of foul air. The mine was
proved to be in good working condition on the day before the
explosion, and the only evidence tending to throw a light on
the cause of the explosion vas that of Mr. E Robotham, who
deposed that there had been a sudden change in the tempe-
rature of the air on the night before the explosion, and that
he had noticed that such circumstances had an effect on the
fire-damp. The jury having retired for half an hour returned
a verdict of " Accidental death, caused from suffocation from
the after-damp."

ALARMING EXPLOSION OF GAS.—Two PERSONS
INJURED.--On Saturday evening, shortly before five o'clock,
the immediate vicinity of Fore-street, Cripplegate, was ex-
cited owing to a loud explosion on the premises of Mr. Peake,
a boot-maker. It appeared that Mr. Peake had recently had
a new chandelier fitted up in his front drawing. room, and
on the servant ascending the stairs she experienced a strong
smell of gas. Having informed her master, he hastened up
to ascertain the cause, and incautiously took a light with
him, which caused the gas to explode, shattering the win-
dows to atoms. Mr. Peake was enveloped in flame, and
burned on the hands and head. The servant was prostrated
by the shock, and so much injured that she was necessarily
taken to the hospital.

CONSULAR APPOINTMENT.—Mr. Louis Fraser has
been appointed her Alaj.asty's Vice-Consul at Wyhdah, in the
Bight of Benin, on the western coast of Africa.

In Fleet-street, two persons had a very providential
escape, a largo stone, weighing about half a hundred
weight, slipped from the coping of the house inhabited
by Mr. Brandt, tobacconist, adjoining the police-station,
and 101 l upon the pavement with a most tremendous
crash. Almost miraculous to say, no one was injured
by the accident, although a lady and a policeman were
at the moment within only a few innhps of the spot.
With great prudvnce and judgment, Mr. Inspector Scott
sent policeman 372 up to the ro4 of the house to ascer-
tain the safety of the other stones, which had evidently
been loosened during the storm, some or which it was
found necessary to remove, and thus prevent a probable
catastrophe to some of the foot passengers.
(EXTRACT FROM OFFICIAL REPORT OF CAPTAIN GARRET

lIIIGII FITZGERALD To C&PTAIN ELLIS, a N.)
" The Edmond, which sailed ou Monday at eight
o'clock, from Carrigaholt, with a fair wind, was char-
tered by John M•Donnell, Esq., of Limerick. When
the vessel got about 30 miles clear of land, the wind
headed and came to blow such a gale that all the canvas
went, and the ship in a most miraculous manner got into
Kilkee bay, where no ship ever before entered, at half-
past eleven on Tuesday night, and became a total wreck
at three o'clock on Wednesday morning. There were
216 souls on board; three more than mustered for me.
Out of 216, 120 are saved, including all the crew ex-
cept the carpenter; 96 have been loot; of whom 47
have been washed on shore; 50 coffins were brought from
Kilrush by Mr. Blair, Lloyd's agent. Captain Pascoe
stated he never saw such a wreck."

Ou the same night another ship, laden with emigrauta„
bound for New Orleans, was totally lost on the Black-
water Bank, along with three other vessels, laden with
cargoes:of the value of 35,0001. The emigrant ship was
an American, named the Adeline, last from Liverpool,
with, it is said, 500 passengers. She struck on the south
end of the shoal. Her signals of distress were quickly
perceived by the coast guard, who with the inhabitants
immediately put off in their boat to the wreck, and by
extraordinary exertions they succeeded in saving every
soul. The ship, however, went to pieces.
FURTHER CASUALTIES.

LINERICIL—The Russian vessel, the Gustava Adolf,
is missing. The Rival, ashore at Doneymore Island, in
Tralee Bay, bound from Limerick to Liverpool with
oats. She had lost her foremast, and at the time the
account left the sea was running so high that no boat
could reach her. We have also heard of the Fits-
Henry, bound from Tralee to Limerick, with grain,
driven ashore in Tralee Bay. The Henry and Ann,
Hogg master, went ashore on the island opposite Kul-
rush, in the Shannon, bound from Waterford to Lime-
rick, with barley, for Mr. Thomas Usborne, Limerick;
all safe.

Accounts state that ten other vessels left Scattery
Roads with the unfortunate Edmond, of which, there has
been no &CC( ant.

The brig Henry and Anne, Thomas master, bound
from Qaernstown to Limerick, with Indian corn, in
bringing up to Cork harbour on Tuesday evening,
during a gale of wind, got on the rocks at the entrance,
and as the gale continued, we fear it became a total
wreck.

Six vessels sailed from Falmouth, principally foreign
vessels, on Monday week, for Limerick, none of which
have been heard o►.

COAST OF ENGLAND AND WALES.

PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY, FIVE P.M.—A violent westerly
gale commenced blowing last night, accompanied with
thick weather and occasional heavy squalls of wind and
rain; sometimes the wind has approached to a hurricane.
We are fearful that we shall hear of many disasters.
We have not had a more severe storm at Portsmouth for
some time past, and at present there is no appearance of
its moderating. At Spithead, the Caroline, the Austrian
man-of-war, and several other vessels have rode safely,
but a Sunderland brig drove to-day at high water, but
brought up off Southsea Castle, and now holds on.
CORNWALL—On Wednesday, night about eleven
o'clock, the schooner Queen, of London, from Cardiff,
was totally lost on Phillack beach, and the whole of
her crew perished. From the size of the boat that was
washed on shore this morning entire, the vessel is sup-
posed to have been about 150 tons burden. Some of her
papers were washed ashore, and are now in the posses-
sion of the coast-guard men stationed at Gwithian. The
crew were distinctly heard crying for assistance, but
none could be rendered. Nothing more of the vessel
or crew was seen or beard after one o'clock this morn-
ing. Some of her bulwarks are washed ashore.
PAnsTow.—The French chasse-marta Emile Maria,
of Sarzeaud, Pierre Carhoalent master, coal-laden, from
Liverpool for Bordeaux, went ashore on Monday night.
ahoat ten o'clock, in Constantine Bay, five miles west of
Padstow, and became a total wreck. Four of the
crew, including the master, perished. The two sur-
vivors state that they mistook Trevose Headlight for
Lundy, unchir the lee of which they intended to run for
shelter.

During the height of the gale the coast near Bide-
ford and Appleclore was the scene of a very serious wreck.
The wind was blowing heavily from W.N. VV., when a
fine vessel, called the Prince Albert, laden with grain,
hound from Waterford to Gloucester, was observed
driving on the Otero. One of the life-boats put off to
the rescue of the crew. Ere this, however, the vessel
had struck, and the destruction of the poor fellows
seemed inevitable. By a desperate effort they were at
length preserved, but the unfortunate vessel was spee-
dily broken up by the heavy surf wbich was running.
Other disastrous casualties happened on the same line
of coast. Pwlheli, Aberystwith, Milford, and along the
entire sea range of South Wales, the storm was very
destructive, much damage being done to the shipping.
In some parts of the coast the sea overflowed the 3ank
wall and flooded the country for miles ; while at
Aberystwith a part of the quarry railway was washed
away.

HAYLE.—The Queen, Dowland, of London, from Li-
verpool for Sardinia, came on shore about two o'clock
on Thursday morning, between this place and God-
reavy, three miles east of St. Ives, laden with iron, tin
plate, &c. ; crew perished. The ship went to pieces al-
most immediately after she struck. Neither of the
crew have been picked up.
LIARRINGTON.—On Tuesday afternoon, during a se-
vere gale from the south-west, the brig Lark, of White-
haven, drifted past that port and came on shore a little
to the south of Harrington, near the tan-yard. At the
following tide she became a complete wreck. The crew
were all saved.

DUBLIN, SATURDAY EVENING.—The Post of this
evening contains the following correspondence :
"Dublin, Nov. 19, 1850.
" Most eminent and most honoured Lord,—l feel sin-
gular pleasure in having the honour to forward to your
Eminence the accompanying proof of the perfect union
of heart and mind which subsists between the Catholic
clergy of Dublin and their fellow Cathulics in England;
and I need not, I trust, assure your Eminence, how cor-
dially I join in the present congratulations which are
respecttully offered therein to your Eminence, on your
elevation to the exalted dignity of Prince of the Church,
to which your Eminence bas been so deservedly raised.

CARDINAL WISEMAN'S REPLY.
"My dear Lord and Brother in Christ,—Nothing
could have possibly been more truly gratifying to me
at this moment than the sympathy of your Grace and
the clergy of Dublin. The kind and most welcome ex-
pression of the feelings in the resolutions forwarded to
me by your Grace, and the affectionate letter from your-
self that accompanied them, are most cheering while we
are suffering from extraordinary commotion around us;
and I feel that your Grace and the clergy of Dublin
have come most justly to the conclusion which I enter-
tain in common with all English Catholics, that the good
sense of our fellow-countrymen will soon bring them to
see the establishment of our hierarchy in its true light,
and that ample justice will be rendered both to our
acts and to our motives by the public here.
"I beg, through your Grace, to return my most cor-
dial and affectionate thanks to the clergy of Dublin for
their great and welcome kindness.
" I am ever, my dear Lord Archbishop,

EXPEDITION OF BUSINESS AT THE STAMP-OFFICE.
—The great pressure of business which has existed at this
Government department since the new Stamp Act came into
operation is likely, in the course of a week or ten days, to as-
sume the regular routine. Last week between 200,000 and
300,000 stamps, deeds, transfers, leases, insurance, bonds,&c,
under the new Act, were sent to various parts of the United
Kingdom and Scotland, which will about complete the re-
maining orders that had been sent from those localities. The
number of stamps of various descriptions sent to Ireland has
been very considerable, and far exceeds what was at first
expected at Somerset-house. The supplies for Bristol, Li-
verpool, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Sheffield, York,
Durham, Carlisle, and the north, Glasgow, Edinburgh, &c.,
that have been sent off since the commencement of the Act
by the morning, afternoon, and evening trains are really
astonishing in the short time, and great praise is due to the
Commissioners, as well as to the enVoyes, for the activity
they have shown in supplying the public with the required
stamps with the least possible delay, not only in town, where
the demands were most pressing, but in every part of the
country. The quantity of p.rchment sent into the Stamp-
office during the last six weeks or two months " has be(n
many tons weixlit, but now the warehouse is becoming
pretty well cle.ired, to i.ccomplish which from 80 to 100
stampers have been at extra work from eight A.m. till
eight, and even teu and eleven, P. 311. daily (Sundays ex-
cepted), with the exception of the ti-:t week, and the number
of stamps of every description dispatched already exceeek
2,000,000, so that no time has been lost in expediting the
business.

ST. JAMES'S CATHOLIC CHAPEL.—Yesterday this
chapel, situate in Spanish-place, Manchester. square, which
has been closed for re-decoration, was opened with con-
siderable pomp and ceremony; there was a very crowded
congregation. In the morning the sermon was preached by
the Rev. G. R. Macmullin, formerly of Corpus Christi Col-
lege, Oxford, whose recent perversion to the Church of
Rome has been made so public. In the course of his sermoa
he stated his conversion to have arisen from a firm be lief
that the Roman Catholic was the only true church; he aim)
dtfended the recent act , of the Pole in restoring the Roman
hierarchy in England. In the afternoon the newly-created
Bishop of Beverley preached; the chapel was crowded to
excess.
