THE IRISH CHURCH.—Mr. Stansfeld, M.P., in
fulfilment of a promise given on a recent occasion, on
Friday night again addressed the electors of Halifax,
confitiing himself entirely to the subiects of the Irish
Church and the land question. He expressed himself in
favour of disestablishment and " utter disendowment" of
the Irish Church, and, with some detail, reviewed the re-
port of the commission, contending that the inconsisten-
cies and contradictions to which the intelligent, well-
moaning, and liberal-minded men who formed that com-
mission were inevitably driven; arose from their desire to
reform and remodel an institution which could only be
reformed by being swept away. Mr. Akroyd also ad-
dressed the meeting, at the close of which a resolution ap-
proving of their joint candidature was passed.

ACCIDENTS AT THE ST. PANCRAS STATION.—

LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and. admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charin,-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 13if1., and three quantities in one,

matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

An immense congregation assembled in St, paui'e
Cathedral on Sunday afternoon, to hear the Rev. Canon
Melville. Every available seat was occupied, and hundreds
went away unable to obtain standing room. The great
repute of the preacher, and the expectation that his sermon
would have reference to the death of the late Dean Milman,
was the cause of the unusual attendance. The pulpit, cora.,
munion table, and reading desk were draped in black. The
text was from the 13th and 14th verses of the Epistle of
St. Paul to the Phillippians. The preacher dwelt with
much eloquence on the character of the great apostle, and
closed his sermon with these remarks : "It would hardly
become me to speak in this cathedral of a Christian
course that is going on to perfection, and to omit all men.
Lion of that honoured and venerable man, the Dean of
St. Paul's, who has just gone hence to his everlasting
rest. A lengthened mention would indeed be better
when the cathedral which he long dignified by his presi-
dency shall have received, as it soon will, his honoured
remains ; but .1 may not hesitate to express the deep
sense which all connected with St. Paul's entertain
of the irreparable loss which his decease has entailed.
llis vast and varied learning, his extraordinary
diversified powers—the scholar, the poet, the historian,
the critic, the divine—his large and tolerant views,
his simple, unaffected piety—Oh ! where can we hope to
find again such a union? Better than all, better than the,
accumulated stores of knowledge—accumulated but ever
ready to be communicated—better than the strivings of a
vigorous intellect,. better than the soarings of a brilliant
imagination, better than all or any of these, was the simple
and childlike docility with which, as we believe, our dean
received the Gospel of Christ, and the firm, unflinching.
faith with which he rested on Christ his Redeemer. We
shall lay him in his grave in the sure and certain hope
of a resurrection to eternal life, not because he has left
few to rival him in erudition, in sagacity, in large.
heartedncss, and in acuteness, but because we believe than
as a Christian man he daily endeavoured to become more
what a Christian should be, and that, conscious of
defects, but yearning after perfection, he would have
said to the last, in the words of our text, " Forgetting the
things that are behind, I reach forward to those which are;
before.' "

MADRID, Sept. 26, 2 p.m.

The column commanded by General Calonge has
received counter orders, and will not proceed to
Santona, but is to fall back and take up a position
in the vicinity of Madrid.
The reason for this movement is stated to be
the progress of the insurrection, Valladolid and a
large portion of the two Castiles having pronounced
against the Royal cause.
The official Madrid Gazette of the 26th, which
has arrived here, states that the insurrection at
Bejar was almost at an end, and that Santander is
held by General Inestal.

surgents retook Santander to-day. Great excite-
ment prevails at Orivedo. The Spanish Deputy
Moncassi, who was arrested recently near Toulouse,

ness of mammon. On the Friday previous
he had spoken strongly, not on matters refer-
ring to Ritualism and Monasticism, but rather
after the fashion of Spurgeon, on the sins com-
mon to such places as Lombard-street, the
head quarters of mammon worship. His stric-
tures had provoked criticism and, perhaps, in
some sensitive if not guilty breasts, feelings of
resentment. The rector of the church, in which
he preached, vouches for the evangelical charac-
ter of his sermons, but the London Protestant
Association, it seems, if not so bad as the
letter of the indignant father of the Rev.
Mr. Lyne to the Bishop of London, describes
it to be, seems, nevertheless, to have had no
small part in instigating and organizing the
disgraceful mobbing of Mr. Lyne and the con-
iiteglation as they left the church. Women
and clergymen were insulted by well-dressed
ruffianism ; and Mr. Lyne himself escaped with
difficulty, and only by the aid of a rather som-
nolent body of police. The motives which
animated the aggressors seem, by all accounts,
to have been of a mixed character. Pure
Protestantism, of the Protestant Association
type, seized the opportunity of giving vent to
its fanaticism against a deacon in the Estab-
lishment, who sometimes claims the character
of a monk, and appears in the habit and. cowl
of a Benedictine. But, in addition to this
uncouth Protestantism, in its most repulsive
form, violent in language and foaming at
the mouth, there were symptoms also, in this
unmanly mob of well-dressed men, of impiety
and gross ribaldry. It seemed to be a protest
on their part against the intrusion of a preacher
on mammon worship in their peculiar precincts.
Such men are not accustomed to be bearded,
as it were, in their den ; they will leave religion
alone provided it keeps at a respectful distance
and has its say to such as choose to listen, at
accustomed Sunday services, but if it dare to
step out of the ordinary routine, and raise its
voice on a week day, in the heart of the busy
city, they seem to resent the intrusion as an
insult and an injury. Row far such a feeling

THE IRISH CHURCH.—Mr. Stansfeld, M.P., in
fulfilment of a promise given on a recent occasion, on
Friday night again addressed the electors of Halifax,
confining himself entirely to the subiects of the Irish
Church and the land question. Ho expressed himself in
favour of disestablishment and " utter disendowment" of
the Irish Church, and, with some detail, reviewed the re-
port of the commission, contending that the inconsisten-
cies and contradictions to which the intelligent, well-
meaning, and liberal-minded men who formed that com-
mission were inevitably driven, arose from their desire to
reform and remodel an institution which could only be
reformed by being swept away. Mr. Akroyd also ad-
dressed the meeting, at the close of which a resolution ap-
proving of their joint candidature was passed.
ACCIDENTS AT THE ST. PANCRAS STATION.—

She encountered a succession of easterly gales since
leaving the Banks of Newfoundland. At 4.30 p.m. on the
19th the Arago exchanged signals with t!‘e Bremen bark
Amalia, bound for the Channel, the S Allys bearing E. by
N. 210 miles, and at 5 p.m. with a bark showing English

THE FALL OF A, WAREHOUSE IN ItelL,

Some details are now to hand of the accident at Trull,
announced in our paper of Saturday. From the descrip-
tion in the Eastern Morning News it appears that the
" Old Sugar House " was a large and apparently dilapi-
datad pile of brick building, and built in 1731. Its dimen-
sions are stated to have been 73 ft. in length, 46 ft. in
breadth, and 74ft. in height, and is said to have had 138
windows. The building was at one time used as
a sugar-refining house, but that business has not
been carried on for the last twenty-one years. The
Towns Improvement Committee, seeing the great
increase of traffic at the district in question, negotiated
with Messrs. Walker and Smith, who had not long ago
bought the property, for the purchase of a portion of the
building, in order to widen Lime-street. The negotiations,
however, did not result in the purchase. The building was
divided into what may be called the double house and the
single house. The double house was on the south side,
and was stored with grain amounting, it is said, to 15,000
quarters. Very contradictory statements are made with
reference to the number of persons engaged about the
building. at the time of the accident, but it seems pretty
certain that there were about twenty men and boys
about the premises, seven of whom were engaged in the
cooperage. The most singular circumstances, connected
with the case is that for some minutes the catastrophe
was pre-indicated by the seed falling out of the windows.
Attention to this uncommon circumstance was imme-
diately directed, and it is said that the men
were leaving the premises at the time the structure fell.
A search was at once commenced for the buried bodies. A
difficulty arose as to the portion of the ruins which should
be undermined for the recovery of them. Silence was
proclaimed, in order to see if any of the victims would
intimate their whereabouts by shouting for assistance, or
by groaning. After a short time a cry for help
was heard. About two o'clock five bodies were
discovered, but in each case life was extinct.
The results of the occurrence were, there is every reason
to believe, anticipated somewhat. It was confidently
asserted that the ruins, which filled up and completely
blocked a portion of Lime-street, had buried several foot
passengers. In few streets of that part of the town is
there more traffic, it being the principal thoroughfare to
all the business establishments on that side of the river.
It was asserted, however, by a man named Robinson, in
the most positive manner, that the street was clear at the
time of the accident. He says he saw a woman with two
children in the street, and that he succeeded in getting
them out of the way before the fall. The damage done
to the surrounding property is not so great as might have
been expected.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

Supplies of stock were much lighter this morning, and
trade consequently more cheerful, although the reports
from Newgate and Leadenhall rather damped the rise in

prices.

Of beasts there were GO from Scotland, 360 from Iro-
laud, 1,910 from various parts of England, and 2,280 from
abroad. Of choice beef there was very little offering, and
higher rates were fixed. Middling also sold dearer.
The number of sheep was 24,330, and for good saleable

did not sell so well, but realised advanced prices, 46
calves on sale.

RELIGIOUS FANATICISM.

Fanaticism and impiousness combined were
displayed in the disgraceful proceedings in
Lombard-street last week, on the occasion of
" Brother Ig-natius's " preaching to a city con-
gregation mostly of men on the unrighteous-
ness of mammon. On the Friday previous
he had spoken strongly, not on matters refer-
ring to Ritualism and Monasticism, but rather
after the fashion of Spurgeon, on the sins com-

tures had provoked criticism and, perhaps, in
some sensitive if not guilty breasts, feelings of
resentment. The rector of the church, in which
he preached, vouches for the evangelical charac-
ter of his sermons, but the London Protestant

letter of the indignant father of the Rev.
Mr. Lyne to the Bishop of London, describes
