SCHISM IN THE CHURCH.

Mr. MANGLES said he had a petition to present respecting
the difference which had lately occurred amongst the clergy of
the Church of England. He understood that it was not
competent for him to present this petition, but he wished to
found a question upon it. The petitioners deeply regretted the
strife arm discord which at present existed in the Church of
England, in consequence of an attempt to revive obso-
lete ceremonies. They stated that the disputes had
arisen in consequence of conscientious scruples entertained by
both parties. Many of the clergy of the country considered
it their duty to revive certain ceremonies, and wear certain
dresses which had not been in use in those parts of the country.
On the other hand, the parishioners said that neither they
nor their fathers were accustomed to these ceremonies, and
they strongly and strenuously objected to their introduction.
The result had been that a great deal of bad feeling had been
created. 'l he petitioners prayed that some measure
might be introduced to restore harmony. The question
he wished to put was, whether it was the intention of her
Majesty's Government, either by Act of Parliament, or by
means of the dignitaries of the Church, to take any measures
to set these disputed points at rest ?
Sir ROBERT PEEL—I do recollect, Sir, that the Hon.
Gentleman, several days since, mentioned this subject. I
am not prepared to give an assurance with respect to any in-
terference on the part of the Executive Government with re-

spect to the matter to which the Hon. Gentleman has referred.
In answer to a question from an HON. Mastaza on the
Opposition side of the House,
Mr. MACKINNON said that in answer to the question
put by the Hen. Member, as to whether he intended to bring
forward his measure rela•ive to interment in towns, he had to
say that, after the assurance given him by the Right Hun.
Baronet at the head of the Government, that a similar mea-
.

sure would be brought forward at an after period, he should
postpone it. Be would rather that the Bill were brought in
by the Government than by a private individual, and under
these circumstances he should postpone the bringing forward of
his measure.

CAUTION TO CONSUMERS.-DRY GAS METERS.

DEFRIES'S DRY METERS have successfully
stood the tests six years' trial. Among the 10,000 in use,
they have been adopted by the official authorities of the Houses of
Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office,
Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other
Clab-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many
other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of
gas have passed through some of these meters without regula-
tion or repair, sad which are still working to the entire satisfaction
of the gas company and consumers.

All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are Invited
to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from
the use of Defries's Dry deter, but, to prevent the substitution of im-
perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry
Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his
meters. _ .

Testimonials from the most eminent and scientific men and large
consumers can be had on application (or will he f. rwarded by post),

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—To the Ladies.--It is uni-
versally acknowledged by every one of taste that how-
ever beautiful a woman may be, if her hair is deficient
either in quantity, quality, or colour, one of her greatest
charms is wanting. A complete remedy for all this is
to be found by visiting the establishment of Ross and
Sons, and choosing either head-dresses that surpass na-
ture herself, fronts, bands, or ringlets that assist her, or
splendid plaits that, encircling the thin hair, give it all
the appearance of a luxuriant growth. The partings
are so admirably contrived that the nearest inspection is
confounded ; the transparency of the web, admitting the
skin of the head to be seen through, they may be de-
scribed as being as light as a feather.—Address Ross
and. Sons, 119 and 120, Bishopsgate-street, London, who
have lately invented the Depinquitory for cleansing the
skin, parting of fronts, &c.

The Soticrroft.GENEnAL—But if you have a general verdict
upon your plea, it is" guilty of all."
The CHIEF 13/mom—Mr. Solicitor, that used to be the case.
But, by a recent decision, it is clear that it cannot be so now. In
the old practice there was but one count. Then the practice
was to vary the charge by the introduction of several counts, Here,
all the counts, after the first say, " And in another distillery,"
whereas there is but one. . .

....--
Mr.- KELLy—And all after the first must be bail, as there is no
other distillery.
Mr. Baron RoLvE—I do not think so. The word "other" is
only surplusage, as it were to charge another offence.
Mr. KELLY -.But there cannot be two verdicts. That has been
also decided.

The CHIEF BARON—Certainly, Mr. Kelly, there cannot be two
verdicts.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL--I think, even now, I am entitled to a
verdict upon the first count.
The CHIEF BARON—Which charges the occupying and working
a distillery within a quarter of a mile of a rectifying.house.
Mr. KELLY—Oh, very well, we will take your vcrcict upon that,
but that must be upon one count.
The CHIEF:BARON— Do you take it so, Mr. Solicitor ?—( A laugh )
The SOLICITOR -GENERA L seemed to decline the proposal, and the
discussion for the present dropped.
The jury retired, after a deliberation of two hours and a
quarter, and returned a
SPECIAL VERDICT.

The Foreman said—We find a verdict for the Crown on the
second count ; and we are desirous of expressing our opinion
that there has been no proof of a fraudulent use having been
made of the communication.
After some consultat on, not heard in Court,
The verdict was entered by agreement for 75,0001.
Mr. KELLY then applied to enter a verdict of .Not guilty on the
remaining five counts, which was agreed to.

REMINGTON'S LINE,

LONDON andMANCHESTER INDEPEN.
DENT RAILWAY, with a BRANCH through the
POTTERIES to CREWE.
The Committee of Management have the pleasure to announce, as
one instance among many of the great public advantages likely to re-
sult from the carrying out of this railway, that certain leading coal-
masters of Staffordshire have proposed to this Company, that in the
event of the line being established, they will guarantee a clear annual
profit of 50,0001. for the conveyance of coal to the London market
alone, and they assert (though it forms no part of the present pro-
posal) that another 50,0001. per annum may be realised from other
markets. In the event of such contract being accepted, they propose
to deliver their best coals in the London market at 12s. 6d. per ton,
which would ensure to the metropolis a supply of coals at a price
most materially below the present cost.
The Committee feel it right to make this announcement, because it
is one of the early practical illustrations in proof of the great public
utility which the Committee must confidently anticipate from the
establishment of this important national project.

HENRY W. MATTHEWS, Secretary.

PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT.
AILWAY FROM MACCLESFIELD,
_LW passing close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttoxeter,
to the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield.
PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED.
The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester and
Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard
Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Consall,
thence close to Cheadle and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods
and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent
Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with
one of the proposed lines from Dudley or Wolverhampton.
A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct
line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great
termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing
railways, will completely accommodate the local traffic, and throw
open several extensive Coal fields and some thousand acres of Wood
land to Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the
kingdom.
This Line is also in some of its principal features the same as that
already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned
by the Churnet Talley Company—will not comprise more than fifty
miles of Railway, and passing through the centre of the unoccupied
part of the district, does not interfere with tke Grand Junction or
any other existing Railway. This and the proposed Line from
Crewe to Derby will also well accommodate the Potteries, giving to

Derby to Manchester. The 0-operation of almost all the principal
landowners from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield having been ob-
tained, this portion of the line may be considered as secure.

SHOOTING.—The Heather-coloured JACKET
of Llama Wool retains the principles of Shape given ia Nicoll's
Registered Paletot. There are many gentlemen who have no liking
for field sports, yet would much incline to the Registered Jacket, it
not confining the chest and giving a general sense of freedom ; no
slight recommendation for the library or the early morning walk in
the country; but the Registered Jacket, for the purpose designed,
viz., shooting, is truly good. The Heather recommended, but many
patterns may be seen at most of the agents in the principal country
towns, or at the spacious Warehouses, 114, Regent-street, London.

SOLICITORS IN IRELAND.

The Earl of WICKLOW had a petition to pt.( sent,
to which he wished to call the attention of their Lord-
ships, and more particularly of the Noble Lord on the
Woolsack, as it related to a Bill to be considered in a
Coremittre o! that House. The petition was signed by
the President and Vice-Presidt nt of the Society of Soli-
citors of Ireland. It contained two prayers—one of
them was, that instead of one taxing officer two should
be appointed ; the other prayer, and this he wished to
press on their Lordship' attention, as he intended to
move an amendment to that effect at the proprr moment,
was, that the same qualification should be r( quired in
Ireland for the officers of such taxing masters.
Lord CAMPBELL concurred in that part of the
prayer of the petition which related to the qualification
of the taxing-masters. The business of the taxing-
master should be performed by a solicitor, and he con-
sidered it would be for the benefit of the public if the
second prayer of the petition was attended to.
After a few words from Lord COTTENHAM to the
same effect, the petition was ordered to lie on the table.

LONDON, THURSDAY, JULY 31, 1845.

The Lords did not sit yesterday.
The Commons met at Twelve o'clock.
After the private business had been disposed of,
Mr. FIELDEN, in moving for certain returns con-
nected with the property-tax, took occasion to call the
attention of the House to the arbitrary and unjust man-
ner in which the tax was assessed. He had been rated
at 24,000/. ; after great trouble that was reduced to
12,0001., but still it was too high. He had offered to
produce his books, and himself and his partners were
ready to make oath that they had not realised such a
sum, but the Commissioners refused to reduce the as-
sessment. The Board could assess at what amount they
pleased, and there was no appeal except to the member:
of the Board themselves.

Mr. WILLIAms thought the country ought to be
obliged to the Honourable Gentleman for having brought
forward the subject.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER defended the
conduct of the Commissioners, and said there had been a
difference of opinion as to the value of the stock of
cotton.
Mr. FIELDEN explained.

Mr. HAwEs thought this was a proper case for inquiry,
He considered it an instance of the flagrant unfairness of
the Property-tax Act.

Mr. BERNAL thought that during the recess the Go-
vernment should seriously consider whether it would be
advisable to continue this unpopular tax.

Mr. HUME complained that all the Commissioners
were political nominees, their conduct had been disgrace-
ful, and he attributed their treatment of the lion. Mem-
ber for Oldham to a political grudge.

Sir R. PEEL could not believe that any person holding
,he office of Commissioner could be actuated by such un-

worthy motives.
After a few words from Mr. BROTHERTON and Capt.
PECHELL, the motion was agreed to.
On the order of the day being read for going into Com-
mittee of Supply,

Mr. BERNACcalled the attention of the Government to

the recent accident on the South-Eastern Railway, and
asked what steps had been taken to prevent the recur-
rence of such accidents for the future ?
Sir G. CLERK said that the Government had dispatched
an officer to make inquiries on the spot, but, as yet, his
report had not been received ; when it was, it would be
fully considered by the Board of Trade, with a view of
affording better security to the public.
After a few words from Mr. CLIVE and Mr. P.
HOWARD,

Sir R. PEEL said that the responsibility which attached
to those connected with the management of railways
was, at present, insufficient to insure the
safety of the public. He believed that many of these
railway accidents might have been avoided by the adop-
tion of proper precautions, and he thought they had a
right to demand that railway companies should give
greater securities against the occurrence of accidents
than they bad hitherto done.
