REV. DANIEL M'AFEE

Among our advertisements will be found an address to this
gentleman, together with the answer. Mr. M'Alet: leaves
Cork for Belfast in a few days, and will carry with him the
respects and the regards of many who have no connexion
with the religious denomination to which he belongs. During
the three years which he has spent among us he has not been
idle, and his letters to. Daniel O'Connell, which we had the
pleasure of publishing, and which ought to be circulated
wherever Romanism holds a footing, will be long remembered
after his departure. Among the testimonials of affection
with which be has been presented, is a beautiful copy of
Bagster's Polyglott Bible, elegantly bound, and bearing the
inscription—
" Presented by the Members of the Cork Wesleyan Theo-
logical Association to the Rev. Daniel M'Afee, as a token of
affectionate esteem for his social virtues, sincere admiration.
of his ministerial usefulness, and deep respect for his exten-
sive acquirements and unconxpromising integrity in the main-
tenance of Truth, in opposition to erroneous doctrine in all.
its forms."

A Silver Plate inserted in one of the covers bears another
inscription, and on the clasp (silver tou) are the words—
" I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your ad-
versaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist."—Luke
xxi. 15.

A number of Mr. M'Afee's congregation got up expressly
for him and Mrs. M'Afee an excursion on our beautiful
river last Wednesday. One of the persons present has
banded us the following account of it :
" Having arrived at Spike Island '—the intended desti-
nation of the party—some were to be seen enjoying the
magnificent scenery of that truly interesting spot, while
oilers with equal pleasure engaged themselves in preparing
the rich repast provided for the occasion. Temporary tables,-
supplied by Messrs. Browne, of Passage, having been erected,
and the various ' substamtials' and 'delicacies' beneath which
they groaned having been duly arranged, between 40 and 50
sat down to dinner, the green sward their carpet, and heaven's
high arch their only canopy. After dinner various senti-
ments were given expression to, which called forth several
speeches of a truly eloquent and spirit-stirring character.. Mr.
M'Afee spoke at considerable length, enforcing, (as he has
ever been found to do) the. absolute necessity of personal
piety in order to true happiness ; the importance of genuine
loyalty and steady attachment to the principles of our glori-
ous constitution ; and the great advantages of Christian
Unity. It was, on the whole, considering the circumstances
of the occasion, the localities of the place, and the feelings
existent in each bosom, and freely exhibited by those who
spoke, a thing never to be forgotten.
" On the following evening, Mr. M'Afee was entertained.
by an association of young persons under the superintendence
of Mr. Edward Robinson, when he was presented with an ad-
dress, expressive of their gratitude for the great advantages
they have derived from his counsel, their admiration of his
extensive acquirements, and their attachment to him as their
minister. On this occasion Mr. M'Afee was presented with,
tfie Polyglott Bible, containing the Hebrew and Greek texts,.
bound in the richest style."—Cork Constitution. •

Amongst the intelligence recently received from India are
accounts which purport to give details of the march of the
Russians to within seven miles of Khiva. The accounts, we
have reason to believe, are wholly unfounded. The only au-
thentic information which has at all reached this country is
of a character that leaves little doubt of the total failure of
the expedition. Morning chronicle. ,
