SPTUIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

The Bishop of Ferns has made a vigorous,
not to say a violent, stand for the Church of Ire-
land as now existing, with all its acknowledged
power and riches, and all its asserted abuse cf
both. Among the various topics of defence re-
sorted to by his Lordship were these,—viz. the
necessity and advantage of the practice of throw-
ing two or more parishes into one, and the faci-
lity of keeping clergymen in good order by legal
modes of restraint or punishment. We have
given in another column a letter extracted from
the Dublin Evening Post, and addressed to
Dr. Elrington by Mr. Ebenezer Jacob, who
treats pretty freely on the two points above-
mentioned. It appears to us, from the facts di-
rectly and specificially brought forward by this
gentleman, that the Bishop of Ferns would do
right to bethink himself, before he submits his
controversial performances to the public, how pro-
bable it is that any slips or extravagancies with
which they may be chargeable, will not be suf-
fered to pass without reproof, but will experience
an unmerciful exposure ; and with them, not
merely the Right Reverend Author himself;
but—what his Lordship must no doubt con-
sider of infinitely more importance,—the very
cause for which he indiscreetly undergoes
this hard measure of chastisement and humiliation.
Dr. Elrington having doubted the existence of
misconduct among the Irish clergy, and stated
the ease and economy with which, if it existed,
it might be punished in the Ecclesiastical Courts,
Mr. Jacob reminds the Right Rev. Bishop of
a correspondence which had actually taken place
between them " not very long ago," when, on a
complaint made by Mr. Jacob of grossly im-
proper conduct in one of the clergy of the
Bishop's own diocese, his Lordship regretted
that he had no power of " punishing that clergy-
man," and added, (a modest proposal, by the
way), that if he (Mr. Jacob) chose to proceed
against the culprit in the Ecclesiastical Court,
the Right Rer. Bishop would recommend him
to -an eminent civilian for the purpose ! Why,
in the nature of a commentary on Dr. Elring-
ton's letters to Lord Mountcashel, " this bates
cockfighting," as they say. But Mr. Jacob,
knowing the expences of the Court of Ferns,
declined the civility of the Bishop, and his emi-
nent civilian also. Mr. Jacob goes on with his
unpitying appeals to the recollection of Dr. El-
rington, in two other instances, and next ad-
vances to another head of charge. The Bishop
had expressed himself somewhat plaintively on
the hardship of tithes being left in the hands of
lay rectors, to the impoverishment of the unfortu-
nate vicars, who did the whole work of parish
ncumbents, yet received but one-third of the
tithe. But Mr. Jacob recalls to him, that the
Bishop himself possessed the rectorial tithe of
parishes within his own diocese, in respect of
any performance of duty in which parishes his
Lordship was no better than a layman, his un-
fortunate " vicars doing all the work." An ex-
ample well worthy of animadversion is referred
to by Mr. Jacob. It involved a case of extreme
cruelty, and is represented by Mr. Jacob to have
occurred through the enforcement of the Bishop's
own personal claims to the recovery of rectorial
tithe, by his Lordship's own process-server,
against a poor old doting widow woman, whose
husband had been killed by the kick of a horse,
against whom a decree was of necessity passed,
" the costs of which" (as, indeed, is quite cre-
dible) " far exceeded the original debt." It
does seem rather out of drawing, if judged by
any analogy to English law, or to the recognized
principles of justice, that Dr. Elrington should
attempt to proceed before a diocesan tribunal,
where he stood in the " fourfold capacity of
bishop, rector, judge, and suitor, in his own
cause !" Mr. Jacob expostulates on this very
shrewdly, saying that no one can allege such
courts to be in no need of reform, or expect that
reform to be accomplished without the interfe-
rence of the laity. The remainder of Mr. Ja-
cob's letter discusses the merits of the consoli-
dation, or fusion of parishes, on which Dr. El-
rington had assumed a tone of confidence and
triumph. The manoeuvres, in this respect, are
neatly detected ; but we have not time nor space
to follow them. The separation of an Arch-
deaconry and its emoluments (so we read Mr.
Jacob's narrative) to bestow them on Lord
Courtown's son, and the subsequent union of
two ancient and unprofitable, though not unpo-
pulous, parishes of St. Therius and St. Seisker,
to the incumbent of Wexford, with which parish
eight others also are united, the whole pro-
ducing from 1,000/. to 1,5001. per annum (we
forget whether this is the living represented by
Dr. Elrington to have produced, after the
Union, only 64/. per annum), are among the
more remarkable cases pointed out. 'We recom-
mend, however, the whole of this epistle to
public attention, and to that of the Bishop
of Ferns, especially the sentences in which is
described the imposition of a new tithe on
tobacco, and those illustrative of the effect
of such proceedings on agricultural and other
improvements. It is good that these ques-
tions have been opened, because satisfaction
regarding the church of Ireland must, in one
way or other, be given to the opinions and
feelings of all the reflecting portion of society.
We have to add, that Lord Mountcashel has
published another letter to Dr. Elrington,
wherein his Lorship debates, with considerable
knowledge of the subject, many of the questions
referred to in the former parts, of this curious
and eventually, we doubt not, very useful corres-
pondence. The ruin of the Church under
Charles I. is shewn to have arisen from other
causes than those assigned to it by the Bishop,
namely, to its own Popish spirit and subser-
viency to the tyrannical projects of the Crown.
The right. to British subjects of all classes is,
justly asserted, to inquire into and resist the
abuses of our ecclesiastical policy. The history
of certain unions of parishes, as related by Dr.
Elrington, is severely corrected, and the wisdom
and justice of restoring the contribution of
First-fruits to its original character, viz., a
payment of one year's full value of the bishopric
or living, are insisted on with great earnestness
and truth.— Tintes.

The vesata questio of Roman Catholic epis-
copal appointments is at length settled. Two
reacripts have been addressed to the Irish Catho-
lic Bishops, regulating the future mode of pro-
ceeding. On a vacancy, a priest is elected by
the parochial clergy to administer the offices of
the see, as Vicar Capitular, sede vacante. A
meeting of the Dean and Chapter, where such
an institution exists, in conjunction with the
parish priests, is held for the election of a suc-
cessor. Over this meeting a Bishop or Arch-
bishop presides. Where no Dean and Chapter
exists, the meeting is composed of the parish
priests only. Three names are then selected of
persons certified as natural-born subjects of his
Majesty, of good moral character, and of ap-
proved loyalty. Copies of their names are sent

to Rome, and to a synod of Bishops in Ire-
land, and the latter communicate their observa-
tions to the Cardinal Secretary of State, or to
the head of the Propaganda. From this list so
laid before the Pope, the new Bishop must be
chosen. A mode of nomination more entirely
domestic can scarcely be imagined. The new
Bishop is thus necessarily a British subject,
whose character has been fully investigated by
two competent and responsible bodies of men.
The Pope, so far from claiming a right of nomi-
nation, does not in the new system possess a veto.
The Irish Roman Catholic Bishops become, in
fact, more independent of Papal influence than
most others of their class. It is a very great
concession from the Vatican to the spirit of the
times, and it ingrafts on the Roman Catholic
faith a principle of Presbyterian church govern-
ment, essentially democratic in its character, and
highly democratic it will be found in its conse-
quences.—lbid.

The silence and apparent oblivion into which
the unexplained case of the untimely death of
INlrs. Phillips, of Finchley, was sinking some
time ago, we thought it a public duty to dis-
turb, and try, if possible, to have the veil lifted
which covered her mysterious fate. Our obser-
vations, which went no further than to show the
necessity of a public inquiry, and to call upon
the Secretary of the Home department to inter-
fere and prevent a failure of justice, induced
Mr. Phillips to address us two letters, which
we" published, and which contained rather gene-
ral observations than a particular statement of
facts. Our readers will recollect that this gen-
tleman also requested us to publish a statement
which he had given the public some weeks before,
through the medium of a Sunday Paper. This
we declined to do, but at the same time pro-
mised to give insertion to any original article he
chose to send, containing a detail of the facts
connected with this extraordinary case. On
Friday night Mr. Phillips forwarded to our
office a long communication, duplicates of which
he sent to several other Papers. It come too
late to allow •us to find room for it in our columns
that night; nor could we, under any circum-
stances, give insertion to the whole of it, inas-
much as it contained serious allegations against
the conduct and character of other per-
sons, who, if they have cast any imputa-
tions on Mr. Phillips, certainly never did so
through the instrumentality of our paper. We have
inserted his statement of facts, and his reason-
ings upon those facts, from which the public
have au opportunity of drawing their own in-
ference ; but we cannot allow him to throw re-
flections on the motives of others, as we have
not permitted any to be cast upon his own.
Our object is that all " mystery" should be
• cleared away from this unhappy subject, and that
the public mind should be completely satisfied
as to the manner in which the distressing event
was brought about. There is a tone of angry
feeling pervading the letter of Mr. Phillips
towards Mr. Snow and others, which we did
not think added any force to his statements. A
good case does not need personalities, and a bad
one cannot be aided by them. It was natural
enough for Mr. Snow and his friends to en-
deavour to show that the fatality was not pro-
duced by professional carelessness in that gen-
tleman's establishment; neither would the re-
moval of such an implication necessarily involve
Mr. Phillips in the dreadful suspicion to which,

n his letter, he adverts ; for there was still the

possibility that Mrs. Phillips might have de-
stroyed herself, or that she might have fallen a
victim to the revenge of some other person.
However this may be, the discussion of the
subject must tend to throw some light eventually
upon the matter. But the sort of investigation
which we should like to see take place is that
which would place upon judicial record all the
facts material to the elucidation of the import-
ant question, whether this untimely death origi-
nated in accident or design. The statement of
Mr. Phillips is now before the public, and we
think it makes that inquiry appear more than
ever necessary.—Morning Herald.
We insert this day a second communication

from the Parisian Correspondent who laboured
so hard to prove that France was hastening to-
wards a revolution. In this letter he inquires
into the means by which such a catastrophe can
be averted, and arrives at the conclusion that
without the aid of neighbouring Powers it is in-
evitable. It would appear from a passage in the
Gazette de France, the organ of the French
Government, commented on by the Courrier
Francais of Friday, that the Royalists, as they
are called, have speculated on the aid of fo-
reigners. "It appears to us," says the Gazette
de France, <, that this obstinate struggle of the
revolutionary interests against the monarchical
principle, and the principles of social order, is
sufficient to awaken the solicitude of the Eu-
ropean Powers. It is, in fact, their cause which
is agitated here ; and they must be destitute of
all foresight, all care for their own preservation,
if they look with an eye of indiffereHce on the
attempts of a faction which for thirty years has
shaken all thrones." The Courrier Francais
observes on this passage, " If there is anything
more humiliating than another to a greatpeople, it
is this invocation to what is not itself—this support
sought elsewhere than in the general eonfidence and
in national force ; and it is at the moment when,
it is said, they wish to rely on the power of the
flag, on military devotedness, that these designs
are disclosed with so much awkwardness, that

they represent themselves in a suppliant attitude
before certain Cabinets to demand assistance
from them." The Courrier F7ancctis, after ri-

cliculing the idea of expecting aid from Foreign
Powers, adds significantly—" I know not, in

the present state of Europe, who would have
most cause for fear, if ever such a design, or
rather such a folly, were to seize the Cabinets."
No ; if the present Government of France rest
their hopes on an efficient aid from Foreign
Powers, they will unquestionably be disappointed.
There is a material difference between the inva-
sion of Spain to restore Ferdinand to arbitrary
power, or an invasion of Naples by an Austrian
army, and a confederation against so powerful a
country as France. The memory of the conse-
quences of the first interference with the affairs of
France in behalf of the Bourbons, is yet too
fresh to allow the Sovereigns to yield to any in-
clinations, however hearty, to crush democracy in

that country. The present Sovereign of France
and the emigrant Nobility, who are arrayed with
him against the nation, ought also to have some
recollection of the events between the Revolu-

tion and the Restoration. They were the objects
of universal execration. The people of France
attributed to their machinations the violation of

their territory by strangers ; the Prussians and
Austrians insulted them, and branded them as
cowards, during the march and retreat of the
Duke of Brunswick ; the natives of the Rhenish
Provinces of Germany detested them as the
authors of the misery which the war entailed on
them ; and) when the advance of the French

army compelled them to betake themselves to the
interior of Germany, every power guarded
against their entrance as against a pestilence, and
even the King of England drew a cordon round
his Continental dominions to exclude them,
These events must have left traces behind in
the memory of the adherents of Emigrant
Royalty. The Spaniards were not ripe for a
revolution, and it failed. The Liberals in that
country were too few in number, and they were,
besides, not equal to the emergency. In-
stead of creating an interest in c'the people,
by measures of a decisive character, they made
rhodomontade speeches, and allowed them-
selves to be persuaded, by the orators of the
House of Commons of this country, that revolu-
tions can be effected without giving pain to any
body, and that the Spanish Cortes would immor-
talize themselves, by exhibiting liberty in a more
amiable light than she had ever been exhibited
in before. The French Jacobins were men of
business ; they knew their situation ; they
knew that the Court, the Nobles, and the Clergy,
were, and would be to the last, sworn enemies to
the Revolution. They had recourse to measures
of violence; but the measures were necessary.
Without them, the Counter-Revolution would
have succeeded, and France would have been
what Spain now is—the contempt of Europe.
The spirit which now displays itself in France,
from one end of that country to the other, affords
a guarantee that the people will not be insulted
with impunity. Wore the Sovereigns to inter-
fere in behalf of a family whose presence is itself
felt as a memorial of their humiliation, the re-
action might once more involve Europe in con-
fusion, and subject the reigning families to more
terrible humiliations than any they have yet en-
dured.— Morning Chronicle.
We alluded the other day to a clever pamphlet
which has just been published by Effingham
Wilson, on the East India and China trade, in
%Nhich the conduct of the East India Company
is strenuously defended, and a powerful attempt
made to expose the folly of those who imagine
that the abrogation of the East India Com-
pany's charter would be a great benefit to the
community. The most curious part of the
pamphlet is that in which an attempt is made to
prove—first, that the trade in tea which is car-
ried on by the Americans with the Continent,
is by no means a profitable one, owing to the
general absence of a taste for tea—and, secondly
that the Company actually dispose of their teas
at a cheaper rate than the Americans import it.
The consumption of tea appears to be not
only small indeed on the Continent, but
to be annually decreasing ; and what
will appear still more astonishing, the
prices of some kinds of tea to be actually lower
than they are, duty included, at Canton ! Such

facts can only be accounted for, either by the
Americans carrying on a losing trade with the
Continent, the teas which they import, being
adulterated, or of an inferior quality to those sold
by the Company ; and the writer of the pamphlet
even intimates that the first and the last suppo-
sitions afford a true explanation of the apparent
difficulty. It would appear, according to his
statement, not only that there is not a taste either

in America or on the Continent for tea to the
same extent as in this country; but that the teas
which are consumed there are inferior in quality
to those imported by the Company, or, rather,
are the teas rejected by its taster in the course of
his selection for the Company. If these facts be
as stated, they assuredly go far to excul-
pate the Company from any abuse of its
monopoly, as well as from the charge of
enormous gains made at the expense of the
public, which has been brought against it ;
but while we readily give all the credit due to
these facts to the Company, we must at the
same time enter our protest against the conclu-
sion, that the trade either with India or China
would not have increased more in private hands
than in those of the Company. Such a doc-
trine is refuted by the comparative success of
every Company and- individual speculation that
has ever been entered into ; and when we add,

that notwithstanding the profits derived by the
Company from its different monopolies, it owes
a debt of no small magnitude, which must be
taken into account in considering the success
with which it has managed its affairs, we think
it will readily be conceded that great deductions
ought to be made from the flattering statements
of the
_pamphlet-writer. We observe also in

the tables which are given in the pamphlet
now under consideration, that although
the trade carried on in tea by the Ameri-
cans with the different States of Europe, does
not appear to have been profitable, and is now
on the decline, their own consumption during
the last few years has rapidly increased. It ap-
pears also from the table, which exhibits a com-
parative statement of the trade carried on by the
Company and the United States with China,
that although that of the latter exhibited a con-
siderable falling off from former years in 1827,
it had during almost every previous year, shown
a stong tendency to increase. There are also
many other observations which occur to us,
tending to show either a twisting of facts to suit
particular purposes, or an evasion of important
points of discussion, which our limits will not
permit us tomake at present.—Morn.Advertiser.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON THE RAIL-
WAY.—A number of our readers are no doubt aware
that the railway intersects Cross-lane, Pendleton, con-
siderably below the level of the high road, and that an
arch was consequently required to early the road over
the line of railway. The arch, which is of brick, has
recently been finished, and the workmen had just removed
the frame-work, on Thursday morning, when one end of
the arch gave way, and in a moment the whole was a
mass of ruins. At the time the first end of the arch fell,
there were six men beneath, five of whom fortunately
escaped at the opposite extremity, but the other, we re-
gret to say, was buried in the ruins. All the persons
connected with the place now directed their exertions to
extricate him, and after a lapse of about twenty minutes
his lifeless remains were taken out. The deceased, whose
name is JASIRS KILLER, of Eccles, was conveyed to the
Railway Tavern, to await the result of the Coroner's In-
quest, which, we believe, will be held over him this day.

YARMOUTH, Nov. 26.—During a tremend-
ous gale from the N.E. by E. on the night of Tuesday
last, of the six vessels then in our roads five of them were
blown on shore; a light vessel from Shields was running
for the Bar, and got on the North, where she remained
for some time without any possibility of rendering her as-
sistance, at last she went to pieces, and eight poor fellows
were launched into eternity, and only one saved. Three
vessels laden with coals cams on shore, all hands saved ; a
vessel laden with linseed came on shore, all hands savec ; a
fishing-boat also came on shore, out of which three men
were drowned.—Norfolk Chronicle.

WANTON CRUELTY.—In a field contiguous
to the road between Sheffield and Barnsley, and near to
Chapeltown, one of a flock of bheep was found, a few
nights ago, with its face skinned, its eyes extracted, and
its ears cut off! ! Thus maimed, the poor animal was
running wildly about the field, bleating most piteously.—
Surely the monster of cruelty who could do such a deed
of inhumanity will not escape ultimate punishment.—

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MAINAION.HOUSE.

J. Ma!pas, a man of respectable appearance, aid
this wife, were brought before the LORD MAYOR
sunder the following extraordinary circumstances
----- Jenkins, a Welsh farmer, just arrived in
';town, stated that on Tuesday last he was going to
put a letter in the Post-office, and met three respect-
able men, of whom he inquired the way. They said
'they were going to the Post-office, and he went with
them. After he had put in his letter, one of the
party proposed going to a public-house, and he ac-
companied them. He had a pocket-book about him,
containing several 5/. country bank notes payable at
Lubbock's. He neither spoke of his notes, nor
showed his pocket-book; but on returning to his
lodgings was astonished to find that the notes had
been taken out of his pocket-book and tea-paper put
in their place. The next morning he gave notice at
Lubbock's, and the day following a lady came with
one of the 51. notes to be paid, and, on being ques-
tioned about it, said she got it from her husband,
who was waiting outside. The male prisoner was
found outside, as she said, and they were both taken
into custody. The Welshman, on seeing the male
prisoner, immediately identified him as one of the
party with whom he had been drinking. The officer
who took the prisoner into custody found on him a
purse, containing some new halfpence, which might
be mistaken for double sovereigns at a distance, some
gilt farthings, and a parcel of flash notes, which
the officers described as forming part of the regular
stock in trade of a nags-man, the slang name for
the plunderers who are on the watch to make prey
of unsuspecting country people. The male prisoner
denied any knowledge of the Welshman's notes, said
he had been assistant-naturalist in a voyage of dis-
covery with Captain Franklin, with whom he sailed
in the Blossom; and that several gentlemen of the
Foreign-office would speak in his favour. He was
remanded, to give time for 'the prosecutor to pro-
duce evidence of the number of the notes., The
female was discharged.
