return, although cultivated at an expense unnecessa-
rily great. Why are manure heaps left in the field,
where they lose their richness and fertilising qua-
lities ? Why is the refuse from the farm-yard and
dwelling-house allowed to escape into the common
ditches, and to produce a rank crop of noxious
weeds, instead of adding to the richness of the
land ? Why do we see ponderous four-horse wag-
gons doing work, for which two horses with light
carts are sufficient ? Why is farming expensive in
particulars, in which cheaper cultivation would bring
more produce ? And why is there such unwilling-
ness to expend capital, where that capital would give
an ample return? The answer, I believe, is, imper-
fect farming encouraged by unwise legislation."

The death of Lord SIDMOUTH, who died on Thurs-
day last, at the advanced age of eighty-seven, reminds
us that a peer of the realm has just passed from
among us who, by sheer luck and the proverbial
caprice of fortune, attained those honours which are
often denied to talents a thousand times superior to
any of which he could boast. Without eloquence—
without statesmanship—without energy of character
or family connexions—without even a solitary claim
on the gratitude or confidence of his country—the
deceased nobleman gained the highest and proudest
post which a British subject can possibly gain—
namely, that of Prime Minister ! And, as if
this faCt were not of itself sufficiently astonishing, he
succeeded the second PITT as Premier—a statesman
who, whatever other disqualifications he may have
possessed, was certainly not wanting in a certain
commanding energy and loftiness of mind, in which
his twaddling, common-place successor was noto-
riously—not to say, ridiculously—deficient ! Among
the many strange events that marked the commence-
ment of the present century, few are more strange
than Mr. ADDINGTON'S acquisition of supreme power—
at such a period, too, when the restless and enterprising
NAPOLEON was Chief Consul of the French republic !
and none more completely exemplifies the truth of the
old adage that " the race is not always to the swift,
nor the battle to the strong." The late Lord SID-
MOUTH was the son of an able Berkshire physician,
who had the honour of practising in the family of tho
first Lord CHATHAM. In due time young ADDING-
TON was elected Member for Devizes, in which capa-
city he exhibited not the slightest talent of any sort ;
being punctual, however, in his attendance in Parlia-
ment, and tolerably well acquainted with its forms and
usages, he was appointed, through the influence of his
patron, PITT, Speaker of the House of Commons, and by
all accounts discharged the duties of his office with de-
corum and impartiality. On the retirement of Mr.
PITT from place, Mr. ADDINGTON was appointed his
successor--doubtless as much to his own surprise as
to that of the whole country. The peace of Amiens
followed, but the distrust of the French Govern-
ment continuing as active as ever, hostilities
soon re-commenced ; and then came the Premier's
hour of trial. A very brief period sufficed to con-
vince both parties in the House of Commons of his
utter incapacity ; his measures were all marked by
imbecility and short-sightedness, such as might be
expected from a mere red-tape official; and the con.
sequence was that PITT and Fox coalesced in order
to drive him from the helm. On his resignation,
Mr. ADDINGTON was raised to the peerage
by the title of Viscount SIDMOUTII. Shortly
after he joined the Fox and GRENVILLE party;
and when, on Mr. PITT's death, that party came
into power, he was made Privy Seal. On their re-
tirement, in consequence of their attempts to force a
Catholic Relief Bill on the KING, Lord SIDMOUTH
was once again dispossessed of office, notwithstanding
that he held the same sentiments as his Royal master
on the subject of Emancipation. His last official
appointment was that of Secretary of State for the
Home Department, which he held during many years
of the LIVERPOOL Administration. He finally quitted'
public life in the year 1822, from which period to the day
of his death he lived in a state of tranquil, domestic
retirement. As Home Secretary, Lord SIDMOUTII
obtained just about the same amount of popularity
that he obtained during his dull, but brief, burlesque
of the Premiership. His colleagues may have re-
spected him as a man, but they could not but have
contemned him as a Minister ; and as for the coun-
try, it scarcely thought of him at all, except when
he came prominently forward with the thanks
of Government to the Manchester magistrates
for their conduct during the Peterloo massacre,
on which occasion he was visited with just and gene-
' ral approbrium. We sum up our brief, hasty notice
of Lord SIDMOUTII by observing, that he was a use-
ful party drudge—a subservient, unhesitating Tory
tool—whom Prejudice confided in for his mediocrity,
and Bigotry for his narrow-mindedness. A capi-
tal office-clerk was spoiled when he first as-
pired to political distinction. His proper place
was at a desk in the Treasury or Somerset-house,
with a pen behind his ear, and a bundle of red
tape-tyed documents under his nose. When, instead
of copying official instructions he dictated them,
he got completely beyond his depth—a notorious
fact, which furnished an inexhaustible theme for the
sarcastic wit of CANNING. If Lord SIDMOUTII be
ever remembered at all, it will be—first, as a prodigy
of political ineptitude, and secondly, as the hero of the
Anti-Jacobilis famous parody on NORVAL'S soliloquy
" My name's the Doctor ; on the Berkshire hills
My father bleeds his patients," &c.

It is some time since we called the attention of our
readers to the unseemly and contumacious conduct of
the incumbent of a large parish in Hertfordshire—
not very far from Ware—in persisting, against the
remonstrances of the great majority of his parish-
ioners, and the repeated intervention of the church-
wardens, in some of those obsolete mummeries which
the Tractarian disciples of Dr. PusEy's school uphold
with such insane, but offensive pertinacity. We
advisedly apply the old ecclesiastical censure of "con-
tumacy" to such preposterous deportment in any
clergyman of the Established Church, albeit exhibited
to laymen. It involves an insult, and it professes
an indifference (on the part of the officiating
minister) to the prejudices, as lie calls them—to the
opinions, as they entitle them—of his congregation,
not to be tolerated by the members of that Reformed
Anglican Church, whose clergy should respect in its
laity the same hostility to all mere ceremonial worship,
which, after all, is the great charter of their own re-
cognised status, in separation from the see of Rome.
Incessant genuflexions and theatrical obeisances—the
revival of long-forgotten observances at the altar or
in the reading-desk—strange and absurd, or supere-
rogatory gesticulation, recruited and equipped from
the most dusty of the canons, or the most obliterated
directions of the Rubric ;—these, it is true, are forms,
morally and religiously speaking, of utter indifference.
But to insist on their practice—to " Romanize" even
to the furniture and dressing of the Com-
munion-table--to display, in the most remarkable
manner, the least conciliatory pretensions of the elder
" High Church," in acts bespeaking a sort of divine
nature and condition for the minister than that of his
auditors ;—all these are symptomatic of a studied
desire for, in a section of our own Church, once more
to assert pretensions of infallible superiority in its
clergy, which the good sense of the English people
had long ago indignantly discarded. We must now
refer, with sorrow, to a new ebullition of this PUSEY
mania, which is vexing the suburban orthodoxy of a
parish in Essex—namely, Great Ilford.
The minister of Great Ilford, like him of whom
we wrote formerly, has the happiness to acknowledge
the Bishop of LONDON for his diocesan. The corre-
spondence between this Diocesan and the church-
wardens of Great Ilford is a curiosity in its
way ; and, on the part both of Prelate and
parson, is marked, emphatically enough, by the true
" superbia prelatica " of those times, the return of
which both of them so fondly desiderate ; for the
sleek and pharisaical Bishop of LONDON must be con-
tent to be adjudged a Puseyite, since he so manifestly
affects, on all occasions, their colours and their cause !
Not that we mean to affirm the competency of the
Right. Rev. Lord of Fulham House to adopt, even
in this controversial warfare, a course which he can
hold without trimming. It was amusing, some three
or four years ago, toobserve the desperate munificence
he found himself irresistibly propelled into, by the
sarcastic epistle of the Rev. SIDNEY SMITH, in which
the Prebendary read to the Bishop his memorable
homily, touching the disingenuousness of denouncing
the "large incomes of Deans and Chapters" as fitting
objects for new appropriation, whilst preserving
a religious silence in respect of the sacred
revenues of opulent bishoprics. To stifle the
laughter of the public at detected inconsistency, the

Right Rev. Prelate, as it seemed to us, diffused his
subscriptiveness over twenty or thirty church en-
dowment, and church-building propositons, at one
and the same time ; yet, a few months afterwards, he
was engaged in another epistolary squabble with Dr.
HumE, of Ilanwell, about the Doctor's right to sink
gravel-pits, on his copyhold, without a sort of
Peter's-pence payment to the Ecclesiastical manor
Lord—" CHARLES LONDON." At present, how-
ever, the Bishop, clearly enough, abets our Pu-
seyite parson. In December last, he apprised the
churchwardens that he had been informed by the
Rev. FOLLIOTT BAUGH, that a vestry meeting of the
"parishioners of Greatllford has been summoned for
the purpose of considering the question of the side
table placed within the rails at the eastern end of the
church, the determination of which rests with them-
selves, as churchwardens, subject to his Lordship's
directions."

He requested that they would take no steps for the
removal of such table till he had had time to make
all necessary previous inquiries, and to further
struct them. At a subsequent meeting, summoned
to consider this letter, and at which the Rev. Mr.
BAUGH himself presided, that Reverend Gentleman
" admitted that he had informed the Bishop that it
was only a faction of his parishioners who had got up
this opposition to the present mode of performing
Divine service at Great Ilford." On the veracity of
this information, we shall offer a word presently.
Certain resolutions being agreed to before the close of
this meeting, they were communicated in due form by
the churchwardens to the Bishop of LONDON. The
Bishop, in his reply, admits that he had learned
that the offensive alterations (turning the aspect of
the reading desk, and setting up a slab, or " table of
credence," at the altar place), although effected twelve
months before with the knowledge of the then church-
warden, had been so made " without his express
permission." Yet his Lordship adds, in defiance of
the respectful requests of a populous parish, and very
large congregation, "As no objection was made
at the time, I do not think it necessary now
to authorise the removal of the slab, or the re-
storation of the reading-desk to its original form."
This was consistent to be sure ! The reading-desk
had been deliberately turned, so as to indulge more
than three-fourths of Mr. BAUGH'S parishioners with
the sight of his back instead of his face, at prayers.
The Right Rev. Bishop could do no less than rump
the remonstrating churchwardens. The most amus-
ing pretension is to come, and we hasten to make
room for it. " With respect to the other parts of the
resolutions, I will content myself with expressing my
regret that the concession which Mr. BAUGU has
made to the wishes of the Select Vestry, in discon-
tinuing the weekly offertory, has not been met by
them in a kinder spirit."
" Concesion," truly ! The withdrawal of an offensive,
impertinent observance, calculated to insult all sincere
Churchmen, by challenging associations and recol-
lections connected with the worst usages of sangui-
nary superstition and priestly intolerance. But perhaps
our readers may imagine that, after all, the Puseyite
practices in which the incumbent of Great Ilford in-
dulged were harmless as to consequences. They
may be thinking of his assurances to his Bishop,
that the remonstiants composed only a "fraction of his
parishioners?' Alas ! our experience of Puseyite
doctrine, Puseyite clergy, and Puseyite corres-
pondence, have impressed us with a lofty notion of
their love of truth or accuracy. Now, what is the
testimony of the report from whence we have ex-
tracted the facts of this case ? That the very large
congregation which used to attend Great Ilford
Church has diminished, in consequence of the Rev.
Gentleman's caprices, to an attendance of 40 or 50
persons only, for some time past; and that very re-
cently it consisted of but nine people ! What a
fine prospect for the "unity and welfare" of that
Church whereof it is just possible that the spiritual
humility of the Right Reverend Bishop not seldom
contemplates the possibility of his becoming, at some
future day, the ecclesiastical head—afforded by the
progress of the innovations which his Lordship thus
sanctions, and the coincident defection of outraged
flocks from the pastors who adopt them!

The "Fifth Annual Report" of the Registrar-Ge-1
neral of Births, Deaths, and Marriages in England,
dated 14th August, 1843, brings under the notice of
the public some remarkable contributions to these
important branches of statistical inquiry. The whole
of the annual abstracts which it comprises are for the
year 1841 ; prepared (as we collect) with reference
to the Population Census, which was taken about the
middle of that year. The first division of the docu-

ment before us is appropriated to a comparison of
marriages, births, and deaths ; a statement of mar-
riages of 100,000, living in eleven divisions of the
kingdom ; and of marriages solemnized in each of the
four quarters of the year, respectively; also of re-
marriages, marriages of minors, and of persons mar-
ried who wrote their names. The other divisions
relate to births, deaths( and their decrease), life tables,
and health of towns. These are followed by tables of
marriages, births and deaths in the several counties of
England (in 1841), distinguishing males and females,
and by other documents and correspondence having re-
lation to the same physical statistics of districts and

towns.
We have no room to-day for some results to which
we had intended to call attention, among those which
are arranged under the returns from the 324 statis-
tical districts into which England is divided for the
general purposes of this registry. In the meantime,
however, we shall quote the following passage, as
suggesting an important modification in the, of late,
generally received doctrine that the duration of life is
cceteris paribus, in a very high degree greater in
women than In men. The degree in which the
difference has been overrated appears to remount to
the age of the ingenious but defective calculations of
the older economists, made• in times when there
existed so few authenticated data, and those data so
ill combined, on which to found the theory of those
calculations ; and to the first attempt of BurroN, and
other naturalists, prior to the better instructed
efforts-of the savans who succeeded them, to estimate
the vie probable of our species, under given
conditions of social life, in its existing forms.
Yet the reformation of the tables of our Life
Assurance Offices, founded on this assumption of the
superior longevity of women, and the consequent re-
duction of premiums in their favour, is but of com-
paratively modern introduction. To show how the
assumed excess may be demonstrated, Mr. GRAHAM
has prepared a table of which he says—
" The Expectation of Life' in the annexed table
was calculated separately for ' males," females,' and
persons.' . . . . At first the expectation of fe-

male lives is more by two years than that of males ;
at twenty, it is 40.81 years, that of males being
20.02 ; during the whole period of life,
_after the first
year, the difference in the expectation does not exceed
1.17 year. This difference is important ; but the
table disposes of the highly exaggerated opinions as
to the superior vitality of the female sex derived from
partial observation. I am informed that the lives of
females assured are not longer than those of males,
which might have been expected, as, at Assurance
offices, their state of health is less strictly investigated."
In some highly interesting calculations, which ap-
pear to have been most carefully conducted, and to be
very fairly set out by Mr. GRAHAM, he points out a
few remarkably falsified conclusions, which had been
previously arrived at by the late Mr. RI6RMAN and
by Mr. FINLAISON, (the calculator of the Government
Annuity Tables,) and the Commissioners for conduct-
ing the last Irish Census. We advert especially to
an extraordinary misapprehension of Mr. RICHMAN
as to the minor waste of human life in the population
of Liverpool ; and to a similar error on the part of
the Commissioners as to the differences of duration of

life between the Irish and English people. But we
must postpone the very interesting illustrations we
have selected, under these heads, to a future oppor-
tunity.

From the last print of the " Poor-law Further
Amendment Bill," brought in by Sir JAMES GRA-
HAM and Mr. MANNERS SUTTON, and now before
the House of Commons, we observe that the principal
points of difference between its proposed enactments
and those of the law now in force, regard-1, the ex-
isting remedy in bastardy cases of the parish against
the putative father, and the remedy for the mother of
a bastard against the same father. 2. The regulations
of parish apprenticeship, and the future abolition
of compulsory apprenticeship. 3. The scale of voting
for elections of guardians. 4. Regulations as to

claims of owners, and as to proxy-votes at such elec-
tions. 5. Miscellaneous provisions. 6. Miscellaneous
powers of guardians. 7. Burial of paupers. 8.
District pauper schools, and asylums for occasional
poor in London and other large towns. 9. Parishes
under Local Acts.

We have, in a recent article, expressed our views
upon the general effect of the first set of these clauses,
and remain of opinion that their general effect (of
which we highly approve), will be in danger of being
neutralised by the proviso, that the application of the
mother for a warrant against the putative father
" shall be heard and determined within the space of
forty days from the service of the original warrant."
This is to allow the poor woman no sufficient time, in
many cases, to leave her room with safety, in order to
make her application before the justices. The limit
must be extended. The power which is given, by
clause 11 (as it is at present numbered in the Bill)
to the Poor-law Commissioners, by order, under their
hand and seal, to direct what trades or businesses
poor children may be apprenticed to, does not ap-
pear to us an unreasonable one. From the union,
or the parochial poor-house, in which they have
been brought up, it is to be supposed that the
parties best qualified to speak to their capacity or
turn, will have, from time to time, reported their
observations in a form sufficiently conclusive to
enable the Commissioners to form a correct judgment,
and one therefore most advantageous to the children
so about to be placed out. In the next place, the
scale of voting seems to be judiciously altered, both
as to rate-payers and as to owners. Instead of two
tables, as formerly, the one for the latter, the other
for the former class, it is proposed henceforth to sub-
stitute one table applying to both. Thus, owners
and rate-payers, rated upon a rateable value of 'less
than 501. each, shall be each entitled to one vote ; of
501., and less than 1001., to two votes ; of 1001., and
less than 1501., to three votes; of 150/., and less than
200/., to four votes ; of 2001., and less than 2501. five
votes ;of 2501., and upwards, six votes. `o owner of
property is to vote, either in person or by proxy, until
fourteen days after he shall have given to the overseers
that statement of the property in respect of which he so
claims to vote, which was required under the 4th and
sth WILLIAM IV., c. 76 ; and no person (unless he
be a bailiff, steward, land agent, or collector of rents)
to vote as proxy for more than four owners of pro-
perty in any one parish ; no proxy to endure, or
remain in force, more than two years from the
making thereof. Clause 25 is an important, and may
prove, we think, in working, a highly beneficial one.
It authorises the guardians of any parish or union
constituted by the Poor-law Commissioners to apply
all money raised or borrowed for the purpose of de-
fraying the expenses of emigration, subject to the
conditions and restrictions of the Act of GEO. IV.,
c. 48. The 27th clause is calculated to meet the
complaints, and apuage the feelings in which those
complaints originated, which have been occasioned
by the existing enactments and practice as to the
" burial of paupers." The guardians are now to be
empowered to " bury the body of any poor person
which may be within their parish or union, such
person having died without effects of sufficient value
for defraying the expenses of his burial ; and to
charge the same to any parish, under their control, to
which such pauper was chargeable." All paupers
are to be buried in church-yards ; and the burial fees
to be paid out of the poor-rates. Clauses 34 to 50,
are devoted entirely to the formation, system, manage-
ment, and mode of defraying expenses of district
pauper schools, and asylums for occasional poor in
London and other large towns (Liverpool, Manches-
ter, Bristol, Leeds, and Birmingham are named in
the Schedule annexed to the Bill).

The 57th clause provides, that Commissioners may
direct guardians under Local Acts to conduct their
proceedings, in like manner, as guardians appointed
under 4 and 5 WM. IV. c. 76. Parishes under
Local Acts, with a population exceeding 20,000, not
to be united without the consent of guardians.
These guardians may act as a board, elect a chair-
man, and hold their meetings as set out by 4 and 5
Wm. IV. These are the principal features of this
important Bill ; and it may be reasonably anticipated
that they will occasion much discussion in their pro-
gress through Committee.

Queen CHRISTINA has at length, after much
wavering, left Paris for Madrid. She took her
departure on Thursday at one o'clock, and was ac-
companied in her travelling carriage by a daughter
of Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA, and preceded by the
Duke DE LA ROCA, the Countess BELASCOIN, the
widow of Don DIEGO LEON, and two other daugh-
ters of Don FRANCISCO. Her MAJESTY proceeds in
the first instance to Chalons, where a steamer is in
waiting to convey her to Lyons, and from that place
she will go by water to Avignon, with the intention,
says the Courrier de Lyon, of embarking at Port
Vendres for Spain, unless she should decide enter
ing that country from Perpignan by land. The
Constilutionnel, alluding to the QUEEN'S departure,
says :—" Only two days ago the resolution of
Queen CHRISTINA was still wavering ; but at
a grand dinner given on Monday at the Tuileries,
Marshal SOULT, M. GUIzoT, and the Spanish
Ambassador, expressed their joint opinion that her
departure should not be any longer deferred. All the
other Spaniards present thought otherwise, but their
advice did not prevail." No business of importance
has been transacted in either of the French Chambers
during the week. On Wednesday the Committee of
of Deputies, charged to examine the
permission to prosecute M. E. DE Gl-
decided that the petition was well
RdtheAemßDCanihNdamffoobrrerlibel,
founded, and that the prosecution ought to be per-
mitted. The French Cabinet, not being able to de-
cide on any plan for the construction of railroads, have
"resolved

a Bill, containing no designation of lines, or bidders'
names, but merely indicating the basis of the plan

lators having terminated their task, the Minister, in
virtue of the powers vested in him by the Chambers,
will definitively treat with such of the companies as
shall propose to acquiesce in the conditions stipulated
in the law. The roads for which no contractors shall
present themselves are to be constructed at the public
expense, and the Minister intends in the course of
the session to apply for the funds necessary to execute
and complete the works."

The accounts from Stockholm of the KING'S health
are more favourable. A bulletin of the 2d announces
that the swelling in the legs had considerably abated,
and that the KING had eaten with appetite, and slept
occasionally.
A decree dated February 1, had been issued by the
KING, conferring the Regency on his son OSCAR,
until the Ist of March. It begins in these terms—
"We CHARLES JOHN, by the Grace of GoD, King
of Sweden and Norway, of the Goths and Van-
dals," &c.
The Madrid mail of the 9th had not reached Paris
