ME weekly returns of the Bank of England in
the London Gazette, on Friday, present no features
worthy of notice. The stock of Bullion shows an
increase, but to a very trifling amount ; and but

little alteration has taken piac( -
The Funds have been gradually improving
value, in total disregard of the conflicting reports
from the East, and money has been comparatively
easy for commercial purposes, although no positive
change has taken place in the rates of discount.
Without any particular change in the manufac-
turing districts, the tendency has been rather to
better prices. There has'been a gradual resump-
tion of work by the operatives, but those at
Preston still hold out under the delusive hope that
they will be supported by other trades, in order
to carry out a principle. In the Woollen districts
trade is better, and there are also appearances of
revival of activity in the 'hosiery and lace trades,
so that home manufactures are in as satisfactory a
state as may reasonably be expected at this time of
the year.

Ladies and Gentlemen,—Although I should have been glad
bad some other friend of the society been selected to take the
chair this evening, yet I can truly say, that it is with very
sincere pleasure that I lend my feeble aid in any way to pro-
,note the success of the Irish Church Missions—(applause)—
for I am convinced that those who know anything of Ireland,
and the character of the Irish people, must feel satisfied that
this society is admirably adapted to the wants and require-
ments of that country. I shall not, in the presence of the
deputation—gentlemen who have attended here this evening
very kindly to state the operations of the society—venture to
trespass upon your attention beyond a single remark or two.
The object of this society is, as most of you know,
to pr)pagate Scriptural truth throughout Ireland,—
Scriptural truth in opposition to Romish error. (Hear,
hear.) And in the accomplishment of t, is object, this
Society employs between 500 and 600 agents, consisting of
62 ordained missionaries, 23 lay agents, 314 of that valuable
class of men, Scripture readers, 81 schoolmasters, and 64
schoolmistresses, all of whom are engaged in their respectice
spheres in promoting and teaching Scriptural trntb in the
different parts of Ireland. They go forth in Christian charity
towards all men, at the same time they go forth with
Christian faithfulness to uphold the truth, and oppose error.
(Applause.) They go forth with the Word of God in their
hands, and they do not ask the people of Ireland to believe
what they say, upon their own mere assertion, but they ask
them to take the Word of God and judge for themselves.
The same rule that they apply to their own teaching
they apply to the teaching of the priests of Rome, and they
say to the people, with the Word of God in their hands, "To
the law and to the testimony; if they speak not according to
this Word. it is because there is no life in them." With such
a society, with such objects as it has in view, and with such
zealous agents, we must not think that the society will alto-
gether escape opposition.—(Hear, hear.) But when that
opposition arises or comes from those who propagate error,
the agents of this society are but too ready to meet them
in a fair and friendly spirit and discussion, never doubting
and never fearing the result of such discussion.—(Applause.)
But latterly there is another and a very extraordinary cha-
racter of opposition arisen towards this society. Some of
you may have seen in the papers, as I have seen, some ac-
counts of this. The police of Dublin, forsooth! are employed
to take down the placards of this society,—nay, more than
this, one of the agents of this society was the other day taken
into custody, and for what ? Because he ventured to place in
the hand of a lady a placard of which I have a copy in my
hand, certainly with nothing offensive or very objectionable in
it ; he was taken into custody, and brought before the stipen-
diary magistrate on a charge by a Mr.O'Brennan, tried before
a Mr. O'Callaghan—('•atightcr)—upon what ?—a charge of
constructive assault. Upon constructive assault, consisting in
politely passing into the hands of a lady while she as
politely took a handbill, similar to the one I have now in my
hand. Well, I am happy to see by the papers, also one of our
rev. friends here accompanied a deputation to Lord Palmer-
ston to represent these facts to his lordship, and I read with
great pleasure the clear and admirable statement of our
friend Mr. Bickerstetll—(applause);--and I read Lord Pal-
tnerstt n's reply, and I have no doubt, unless I much mistake
the character of his lordship, he will have a full and ample
inquiry into the subject, and ample justice will be done to all
parties. (Applause.) But we must go a little further than
this. We must let the people of Ireland know, and we must
let the agents of this society know, that they will he
supported by the Protestants of England. (Cheers.) We
must tell this Colonel Brown, the chief of the police in
Dnb!in, and we must tell this Mr. O'Brennan, and we must
tell this Mr. O'Callaghan—(laughter)—that if they wish to
enforce such law. the sooner they get to the territories of the
Grand Duke of Tuscany the better. (Loud applause.) Before
I sit down, I would only desire to make one observation,
arising oat of a note which I received from a valued friend of
mine this morning, in which be states he believes some mis-
apprehension exists in the minds of many that may be
friendly to this society. They are under the belief that the
society may lay itself open to the charge of inducing people
to change their religion for the sake of the foA which
may be given away in some of the schools connected with
the society. Now, I believe that our reverend friend, whom
I call upon to answer this question, or rather this mis-
apprehension—for lam sure it is a misapprehension—will
state more clearly, more faithfully, and more satisfactorily to
your minds, and I hope to the mind of my excellent friend.
if present,—will state such facts to you and to him, as will
convince you that it is indeed, and in truth, an entire mis-
apprehension ; for I am quite satisfied, from all I know of
this society, that there is not as much done for those poor
children in Ireland as is done for the children in our ragged-
schools in England. For my part, I only regret that the
funds of the society are so low that it will not allow the
friends of the society to do more for the starving population
of that country. (Loud applause). The Chairman concluded
by calling upon

In the Corn trade there has been a trifling re-
action, owing to some purchases of wheat for
France and Belgium, but it is evident that prices
must go lower. The stock in this country is much
larger than ordinary, the preparations for next
harvest are on a much greater scale than hereto-
fore, while the recent high prices have tended
considerably to diminish consumption.
The monthly returns of Shipping issued by the
Board of Trade show a preponderance in favour of
Foreign vessels as compared with British, the
difference being apparent both in the entries in-
ward and clearances outward, as will be seen by the
following returns of tonnage :

Mr. HILL said that many of the shopkeepers in the

It was suggested that Mr. Young, the surveyor, had
better report on the subject, and after some conversation
it was allowed to drop.

letter from Mrs. Stubbs, complaining of the nuisance
arising from Mr. Ashcroft's pigs, which were fed with bad
potatoes ; also from Mr. Thompson, complaining of water
in his cellar, owing to the cessation of pumping from the
cuttings for the sewer. It was the fault of the contractor,
and if not done by him, the surveyor might do the work at
the contractor's expense. The surveyor also reported that
the contractor for the sewer was blasting rock in Cow-
lane, and the Chairman called his attention to the covenant
by which the contractor was bound to make good any
removal of rock beyond that required for the passage of
the sewer.

The CLERK said that a meeting of the inhabitants was
held at the Lamb Inn, on the 23d of last month, to con-
sider the necessity of providing a public cemetery ; and
a committee was appointed to obtain the necessary infor-
mation, to confer with Dr. Sutherland on the proposed
closing of Childwall churchyard, and to report to a meet-
ing to be held at the Lamb Inn, on the 23d of this month.
This committee had prepared a report, which was read by
the clerk.

Mr. DAvis said it was a matter of great importance
that some means should be taken, if possible, to obtain
land for a cemetery, as on the closing of Childwall church-
yard great inconvenience would be occasioned.
The CHAIRMAN said that the four townships of Child-
wall, Wavertree, Allerton, and Garston, were in the same
position, and might join in providing a cemetery for the
four. He suggested that the overseers should be written
to to meet a deputation from this board.
After some discussion, it was agreed that the represen-
tatives of the three other townships should be invited to
meet this board on Monday next, to confer on the subject.
At the suggestion of Mr. DAVIS, it was agreed that Wool-
ton should be included in the invitation.
The board then adjourned to Monday next, at five
o'clock.

-The Rev.-T. C. COWAN, the secretary, to read the report,
which was as follows :

REPORT.

" The position of this society has undergone an important
change since the last anniversary in Liverpool. With the
Irish Society of London it has proved a complete amalgama-
tion, and with the Irish Society of Dublin it has entered into
a close alliance, dividing with it the missionary labour in Ire-
land, but reserving the sole right of making ,ppeals in Eng-
land on behalf of the two societies. From the general funds
thus raised the sum of .4'3,000 a•year is secured to the Irish
Society.

"The result of these changes has been greatly to increase
the rei,pousibility of the Irish Church Missionary Society.
The number of missions actually occupied has risen from 44
to 64; and the number of agents actually employed from
403 to 522, and 114 more are wanted to fill up the, present

vacancies.
. " To mee

vat extension of the work, an income far

exceeding that of last year is absolutely required. The
united efforts of the friends of the Irish Society as well as
of the Irish Church Missions will not he more than sufficient
to maintain the present work without entering upon any
fresh operations. In 1852, the amount received from all
sources was nearly .e 30,000 ; but, for the present year, at
least .€40,000 will be needed. The Liverpool Association
contributed last year .t'9o7 10s. 2d., the greater part of which
was made up by large donations to a special fund. This year,
with the aid of the subscribers to the Irish Society, our re4u-
tar contributions should be much larger, especially as the
same liability in donations can hardly be expected.
"The success of the missionary work in Ireland is shown
not only by the number of open converts, and new churches
consecrated, and of children in the Protestant schools, but
also by the violent opposition of the priests, and still more
perhaps by the thousands who renounce Rornanism as soon
as, ty emigration to another country, they are placed beyond
the reach of Romish persecution. A spirit of inquiry has
be.en awakened among the people, and a distrust of their
spiritual guides which no persecution can put down; and
the society has good reason to hope for greater results every
year a 4 the influence of the priesthood gradually diminishes,
and the number of secret converts is gradually increasei.
" A steady well-sustained effort to arouse the attention and
satisfy the inquiries of the Roman Catholics in Ireland can
hardly fail to succeed under the present favourable circum-
stances; a general-advance among them in knowh dge and
right feeling will probably be more trustworthy and more
effectual too in the end than any great outburst of enthusiasm
in this ort:iat locality. It is hoped that the friends of the

society will in no degree relax their exertions, but that the
means of carrying on and of extending this work will be sup-
plied with continually increasing liberality.
" The present secretary has great pleasure in announcing
that the Rev. Samuel Minton, incumbent of St. Silas, will
succeed him as secretary to the Liverpool Association, on the
Ist of January next. " THOMAS C. COWAN."

The Rev. ALEXANDER DALLAS was then called upon to
move the first resolution, which was to the effect that the
Irish Church Mission Society kept alive that spirit of inquiry
and that desire for instruction which had already led to such
important results. He said the last time that lie was in
Liverpool it was to receive the declaration of the alliance
with the old Irish Society. He felt great interest in that meet-
ing, from the great responsibility that occurred ; but he did
not anticipate that in the nine months which had elapsed since
such a wide field should have opened, and that so many things
should have manifested that the work of God was about to
proceed in the great crisis to which their attention would be
called. It was a crisis in which he personally, and all those
dear friendswho joined him on the committee, especiallythose
with him on the platform, felt deeply indeed. He was the more
inclined to make an earnest appeal on the present occasion
because there was a very mistaken notion abroad as to the
nature of their work. It had arisen generally from the flames'
kindled in various parts of Ireland, beaconed as it were on
the hills here and there. They had been accustomed to look
for little spots where a great light was seen, to hear of in-
cidents which told of remarkable conversions, and he did not
wonder that when the mind had been drawn to those interest-
ing details, that there should have grown an expectation of
the peculiar manner in which the Reformation was to he
achieved. And he wondered the less when he remembered
the great work which commenced with the Irish Church
Missions, where the darkness was such that it might
almost be felt, and where the light had since been so
great that every one who passed through there, if he were
not indeed blind (which some were), must acknowledge
that there was a great work in that part. He was not, there-
fore, surprised that there should be an expectation that similar
results should be found wherever the work of the Irish
Church Missions went. Hut he was anxious to call the atten-
tion of the Protestants of Liverpool, and of the kingdom gene-
rally, to the greater point before them. He should be satis-
fied with nothing less than the reformation of all Ireland.
(Loud applause.) He should be satisfied with nothing less
than the completion of the work which was begun three centu-
ries ago, which was then shamefully neglected, and confined
to questions of the supremacy of the King, or the supremacy
of the Pope, and no spiritual means bad been tried from that
time to this ; but now that they were bringing the power of
the Gospel to open the minds of the people of Leland, he was
looking to a greater result than could be achieved in one part
or another, than the beacons at Dingle, Achill, or on the lofty
mountains of Connemara. (Applause.) God had moved upon
the minds of the people of Ireland. It was a movement se-
cret, hidden. It became known to a few, and every step taken
since that time showed that there had been an opening of the
minds of the Irish Roman Catholics to receive the instruction
offered to them; and therefore they were not looking for
Out bursts in one place or another, but for an effect generally
speaking upon the whole mind of Ireland. Now, such an effect
they had the plainest evidence was being produced more and
more, daily; and instead of calculating the success of that
society by the effects produced on one happy quarter, on one
oasis in the desert, one spot where there had been all the bless-
ings of truth, with the order of ecclesiastical arrangements
restored afresh ; instead of that, they:had to look further, and
look what was moving in the minds of the people in the
North and in the South, the East and the West. (Applause,)
All the indications which the committee received from the
reports made, the committee gave them that assurance which
could not be manifest to the people; but the work which
was going on would one day break forth. It would be a
day of the people coming forth and casting off their
shackles. (Cheers.) Numbers were coming out, and although
they might be influenced by secondary motives, God was
drawing the people from darkness, and would put Romanism
aside even from Ireland, and make Ireland what it should
have been long ago, a Protestant kingdom. (Cheers.) Now
on the platform he had with him dear friends, who would
speak as to details, and he thought it more important that
he should draw their attention to the remarkable crisis to
which they had come. In Dublin there were peculiar
facilities. God had there raised up men like Mr.
M'Carthy, who were able for the work by their spiritual
and Christian temper, and he constantly thanked God for the
temper in which lie was carrying on the controversy. Above
all things, the peculiar characteristic was the Christian
temper with which they proceeded, and the forbearing conduct
of the agents. They did not make use of those exciting and
aggravating terms which had been bandied about too easily
in Ireland. The peculiar feature of the Irish Church missions
was their speaking the truth in love, by which they had over-
come that stubbornness and rebellion of the heart which the
priests had known how to use so well in the promoton of
persecution. (Applause.) From Dublin had sprang forth this
spirit of controversy, so qualified. The missionaries, of whom
there were sixty, hiving their places in various parts of Ire-
land, imbibed the spirit of controversy, and were putting
forth the truth as in Christ Jesus in immediate contrast with
the errors of Rome. (Applause.) The grand point was not
to put forth the Gospel alone. The Roman Catholic religion
was so cunningly devised that they would find in the Canons
of Trent many doctrines which were entirely evangelical, and
a general statement of doctrine might be made vrhich would
meet apparent assent, and produce no wholesome spirit of
excitement and inquiry in the Roman Catholic mind. Their
missionaries put the truth in immediate contrast with the doc-

trines of Rome : questions were put to the people, and the E NEWS. - remain unaltered from our last, viz., 78s. 6d. to 795. '

much uptin his iniud, and excited his interest very greatly,
It so happened that there were two persons in Ireland who
have the ear of the Pope. Dr. M`Hale and Dr. Cullen had both
been in Rome, and were on terms of personal intimacy with
the Pope. Now those two persons were placed at opposite
ends of Ireland. Dr. M'Hale was situated in that part where
God had produced such open effects, in Connemara and
Galway. Dr. Cullen was placed in the other part where there
was not such open, palpable and easily calculated results, but
where with deeper effect the work was going on. Dr. M'Hale
was continually Writing to Rome to the Pope himself to assure
him that the work going on there was exaggerated, that it was
merely temporary, that it was a matter of no account what-
ever, that it was entirely from bribery, that, as soon as the
pressure upon the people ceased, it would soon pass away,—
especially, he said, the people of England would soon be tired
of giving their money. (Hear, and laughter.) Dr. Cullen
took a different view. He wrote that this was a more serious
matter than was imagined, that it came to the root of the church
in Ireland, that it must be stopped by any means, and he had
(as he, Mr. Dallas, believed most sincerely, from information
that he had) actually applied to the Pope to have power given
to him to make the whole of the hierarchy of Ireland press with
all their power,—and more than their power,—with all the
power that they dared use in the face of a government which
might sanction them, in order to crush it by violence, by
persecution,—by every means by which the old system of the
Inquisition could be applied in Ireland. Now, Pius IX.
hesitated between these two opinions ; and, in consequence,
the society's missionaries, their agents and converts, and the
inqairing Roman Catholics of Ireland, were left at this mo-
ment without the intensity of that persecution which would
come forth in the boldest manner if the Pope would give the
sanction which Dr. Cotten requires. (Loud applause). Oh,
what a crisis was this, for they did not know the mo-
ment when it might be a matter of life or death to them. In
Spain we knew that three centuries ago the Reformation was
burned out by the auto-da-fe; and they did not know in
Ireland how much Ribbonism, connected with the priests,
might not be called into action, it it were once given forth
that this matter was to be put down in that way. This was
the point they had come to; and when they came to England
and told us that this great work was going on, that the
gospel was being preached, and that the people of Ireland,
who had been in darkness, were now ready to listen,—he be-
sought them earnestly to give, that the gospel might be sent
forth through the length and breadth of the land, and
lie besought them to re,tiember that there might not be
the opportunity for a year or even a month longer. This was
the reason that they had made so much of the matter of the
handbills, for the power of free discussion, by means of which
only they could come at the people, Must be maintained.
(Applause.) Mr. Dallas then contrasted the present crisis in
religious matters in Ireland with the period of English history
in which the seven bishops had made, in the time of James
the Second, their famous Remonstrance. If, when the jury
was sitting on the trial of the bishops, all London had not been
up, and no man slept—if there had not been plain evidence of
the determination of the people,—they would have been found
guilty: That was the turning point in English history, and this
was the turningpoint in Irish. If theycould stop the handbills,
if they could make it a constructive assault to put a piece of
paper with some words from the Gospel into the hands of a
Papist, if a magistrate could convict for that, then there would
be an end to the present attempt to reach the Roman
Catholics. (Applause). It was worth standing up for, and
thanks to God they had stood up for it successfully. It was a
mistake that they did not let the poor man go to gaol, for if
he had, as a great lawyer had said, he would have come out of
it in a coach and four. (Loud applause). But it had
been brought before the Court of Queen's Bench.
They were to decide whether those recognizances were
to stand good or not. They would decide the question,
and in the meantime the hand-bills were being offered about
Dublin exactly as they were before, or rather a deal more
frequently, and they were read with more avidity by the
people. Mr. Dallas next referred to a former time, when the
police had torn down the bills in Dublin which were posted,
and to the defeat of that outrage by an appeal to the Lord
Lieutenant ; and concluded by showing the magnitude of the
operations of the society, and the necessity existing for ex-
tensive support. tie showed the gradual decrease in its funds
in fouryears, from £4,000 to £3,000, its now greatly increased
liabilities, and to a sudden lapse in the subscriptions which
once occurred which had caused them to give all their agents
on one occasion a mouth's notice that at its expiration they
would probably he obliged to dispense with their services. He
also referred, in interesting terms, to the first establishment
of the mission house in Dublin, stating, amid cheers, that a
new Church in connection with it is LI be opened on Sunday
next; and, after making a powerful and effective appeal for
support, resumed his seat amid considerable applause.
Rev. D. R. BICKERSTETH, in seconding the resolution,
said, we are not forwarding any political party, nor are we
seeking to ameliorate the social condition of Ireland. What
we want to do is, to establish by God's own Word the truth of
the doctrines of the reformation in opposition to the dogmas
of Romanism. We have nothing to do with bribery, although
that charge has been brought against us; and even our
friends have 'had misgivings on account of the large sums
which we dispose of. By the laws of the society, we are un-
able to disp,,se of the funds in forwarding any temporal
purpose. We must dispose of our funds in strict accord-
ance with the purposes which have been declared, and which
even the most relentless of our opponents have been un-
able to detect any single instance to the contrary. At a meet.
ing which was held a considerable time ago, at which it was
my fortune to be present,
.a Romish priest was the only one
who offered any opposition ; he was very noisy, and said,
among other things, our converts were merely stirabouts,
meaning by that bribed converts. Now, such as could be in-
duced to leave one religion for another by the operation of
stirring about, would, no doubt, have been most likely to go
over to those who had most to bestow. To this priest I pro-
posed the working out of a small sum in arithmetic •, it was
this :—we have 30,000 converts in Ireland, we have 300 agents
in the same country, each of those agents has £4O a year, and
our income is £13,000; will you tell me how much will re-
main to bribe each of the 30,000 converts, after paying the
agents ? (Great applause.) If the Roman Catholic priest
had been mesmerised, or had had chloroform administered
to hint, it could not have Win made more quiet. He said
not another word, but whenever my address was concluded
he jumped up and ran away. (Hear, hear, and applause.)
The Catholic Defence Society had been instituted to
counteract the operations of this society, and when the
Rornish hierarchy had to establish a Defence Society, it
showed us a gratifying fact, that the operations of this society
were successful. The Defence Society, it was said, would
make such an exposure of the practices adopted by us for the
sake of securing converts, as would disgust the English
people, and prevent them train contributing any more
towards our support. They failed in producing a single
proof of bribery or corrupt agency of any sort. (Loud
cheers.) But such a charge is absurd. We cannot apply our
funds to any but genuine missionary purposes. At
the present time a crisis exists in Ireland, and we have,
through the blessing of God, been enabled to kindle a spirit
of inquiry among te Romanists—(hear and applause)—
and we cannot leave them in that state. We must go on,
and lie who is taught to inquire must be confirmed as a convert,
or we must abandon him to the grasp of infidelity; for if he
has not held out to him the true light of the Gospel to guide
him from Popish error which we have shown, he will come to
the conclusion that there is no truth in religion, and lie will
take refuge in infidelity. We have not only aroused inquiry
in Ireland, but we have awakened sympathy in England, and
in other quirters, and we now have an income of £40,000 a-
year. In Ireland, also, we have awakened sympathy, in so
active a degree, that in one small district there, within two or
three weeks, the sum of £6OO was contributed to convey us
over a difficulty ; and from India, from America, and other
distant lands, we are receiving substantial aid. We have now
560 agents employed in carrying on our work, and we have no
fewer than thirty-six missions in Ireland. Last winter we had
475 pulpits open for the purpose of controversial sermons, all
of which were largely attended by Romanists. Another evi-
dence of the value of the Reformation Society might be found
in the fact that, in the diocese of Tuam, the bishop was called
on to consecrate nine churches, and these, be it remembered,
are not planted like the Romish chapels to entrap congrega-
tions, but they were called for to meet the wants of existing
congregations. Were other proofs wanting, they might be
found in the significant fact, that the Irish Papist, so soon as
he leaves his land, forsakes the errors of Popery. It is an
undeniable fact, that out of 3,000,000 of emigrants who left
!relent] for America, not fewer than 2,000,000 had embraced
the Protestant faith, thus showing that two out of every
three Irishmen had become Protestants so soon as they
were removed from the control of their priesthood. (Hear,
hear, and cheers.) As already stated, a vast spiritof inquiry
has been evoked in Ireland, which, if we are enabled to make
available, it must end in our success. The battle is half won
when a Roman Catholic begins to inquire into the foundation
of his religion. He thus gives unmistakeable reason for be-
lieving that he will embrace and rejoice in the true freedom of
the Gospel. This movement is not confined in its operation
to the soil and people of Ireland ; it extends throughout all
Christendom. This fact was known to and expressed by one
who once filled the Papal chair, who gave utterance to the
prophetic truth, that when the Romish Church shall cease to
exist in Ireland, the Mother Church of Rome will fall. The
rev. gentleman resumed his seat amidst loud and continuous
cheering.

The Rev. C. F. IkI`CARTH Y moved the second resolution, to
the effect that this meeting is resolved to maintain and
extend the missionary work carried on by the Reformation
Society, and to resist the Persecuting spirit to which its
efforts and agents are exposed. The persecution he remarked
might be taken as the best evidence of the Society's utility,
and showed the value of the work it was accomplishing.
The opposition of the Roinish priesthood to the progress of
the Reformation was not so much to be wondered at when it
was borne in mind that every convert from Romanism is so
much out of the pockets ~f the priests. Hence their efforts
to crush the Society. To accomplish this, they resort to every
kind of abuse and misrepresentation; and at the instigation
of the priests, the lay agents and missionaries of the Re-
formation Society had been reviled, traduced, and bedaubed
with mud and filth. The terms of the resolution not only
call on the meeting to maintain the good work so well begun,
and not allow it to go backward for want of support, but
they call on you to lend your aid in repressing the perse-
cutton to which those endeavouring to carry on its
objects are subjected. These objects are, we have found,
most effectually accomplished by getting up such a
state of public feeling as will encourage the friends and
repress the exertions of the opponents of the movement.
Such state of feeling, experience has taught us, is best pro-
moted by the distribution of placards and handbills, contain-
ing short texts of Scripture, and questions tending to show
the fallacy of the Sacrifice of the Mass; these are particularly
suitable in the shape of small handbills, which are put into
the hands of the people as they go into the Popish chapels.
He here displayed and commented upon several of these
instances
of detailing, with much minuteness, the
of efficacy arising from their distribution. Ragged schools
bad also he said been found an efficacious mode of aiding the
society's operations. In reference to the Ragged Schools he
detailed the particulars of what he called the food slander.
It was said the converts they obtained were procured by the
distribution of food among the people. Now the whole
facts on which this misrepresentation rested were,
that, in order to prevent the necessity of the children absent-
ing themselves from the ragged school, for the pur-
pose of begging, each child was furnished every morning with
about three-sevenths of a halfpenny-worth of meal made into
stirabout. (Laughter and cheers.) If such a pittance is to
be found fault with, and represented as bribery and corrup-
tion, look at Maynoothl See there, the sons of peasants and
small farmers, taken into the establishment and fed upon
good beef and mutton every day, but Friday ; and furnished
with money also, supplied by the British Parliament, to
enable those young men to poison the people. (Cries of
" Shame—it won't be long"—and cheers). He sat down
amidst loud applause.

.. -----
The Rev. J. A. COOHLAN, on rising to second the resolu-
tion, said, at so late a period of the evening, and when the
time intended for the meeting had been so far exceeded, he
should not do more than urge upon the clerical gentlemen
whom he saw present, and whom he had hoped to have had
the honour of addressing on the subject, the necessity of re-
commending the society to the favourable notice of their
congregations.

The doxology was then sung and the meeting broke up.

DR. WATKINSON'S FEMALD PILLS, for

medy. The immense demand for the Prescription for these
infallible Pills is a flattering proof of their efficacy. No Fa-
mily should be without so valuable a Prescription. Sent,
