TO CORRESPONDENTS.

VINCENTIUS' letter to the Lord Bishop of Chester, on the
subject of the proposed " free" church, reached us at too
late an hour for insertion this week.
" WORKING THE STAMP RETURNS."—W. G. We quite
concur in your remarks, and feel obliged by your. com-
munication. The practice to which you refer is well
known. Nothing is easier than fot a reckless and un-
scrupulous party to get up the semblance of any amount
of circulation for a newspaper. An advertisement in the
Times, of Friday, offers four and a half tons of unread
newspapers for sale. No doubt these invaluable bales
have done service in the way of showing an extensive
circulation for the broadsheet of some unhappy news-
paper proprietor.
We shall be happy, at all times, to receive communica-
tions on subjects of local or general interest.
Letters addressed to the Editor should be accompanied by the
real name and address of the writer, not for publication,
but as a guarantee of good faith ; this is indispensably re-
quisite in any statement of facts. The Editor wishes it to
be understood that he does not hold himself responsible
for the opinions or statements of his correspondents.

LAPLAND.

Recent advices from the Norwegian province of Fin-
mark, near the northern frontier of Russian Lapland,
contain the following remarks on the designs of Russia in
that quarter : —" The Russians are collecting forces in Fin-
land, apparently to threaten Sweden and Norway. They
are also anxious to get this northern part, which would
provide them with fine shelter for their fleet, with the
means of putting to sea at any season of the year, as our
Fiords here do not freeze unless the water be very shal-
low."—Times.

)3LOOKADE OP Russian POZTS.—Mr. HORSPAML asked
Whether it was intended to establish an effective blockade
of the Russian Ports' in the Baltic, the Black, and the
White Seas, or Whether there was to be a distinction in
'avour of foreign flags. Sir J. GRAHAM said that orders
here given some time ago to the admirals both in the
lack Sea and the Thaitic to institute a-strict bloCkade of
the
Russian ports.; nad he had every reason to believe
that those bloCkades'had been instituted.
TILE BALLOT.—Mr. H. BERKELEYbrought' forwaril his
,1,1,f.nal sessional motion for leave to introtlace a bill to cause
re votes of electors at parliamentary elections to be taken
u3' the ballot. The features of the debate were an energetic
:llleech from one 'Cabinet Minister, Lord Palmerston,
~4gainst the motion; and a very long one from another,

to ridicule the divisions of Ministers on the subject, cons-

be
repudiated the leadership of men professing to be
Liberal who denied the smallest cancession on • such
questions as this. 'What the supportersof the government
!Ilould do, was to say to them, " We have no objec-
'on to support you, but, if you mean to 'be the leaders
of this party, you must take up this question, or you shall
hot be our leaders, and we will not he your followers." If
the advocates of the ballot resolved toshave the ballot, and
would not support a, cabinet that denied it, then, and then
kily, there would'be a prospect of its being carried. On
division the motion was rejected hy;l94 to 167. Majority

Tim IRISH CrIERCIT.—Mr. Sergeant SHEN moved for

41g to the temporalities of the Church in Ireland, and to
increase the means of religious instruction and church
ktecamodation for Her Majesty's subjects, by empoweting
t commission to divide the revenue of the Church with
the Romanists and Presbyterians. He made a long speech

.i4flsion, Mr. BROTTTEILTOIC u-ioved. the adjournment of the
L"hate,, which was consented to, Sir J. YOUNG intimating

egative.—Messrs. NAPIER and NEWBEC±ATE charged the
m,'Over with violating the oath which he took as a Romanist,
Sane,
to injure the Protestant Establishment.—Mr. Sergeant

'teciently sweeping manner with the Irish Church, which
had been endured too loug.
The house adjourned at 25 minutes past 12.

COMMERCIAL. INTELLIGENCE.

NEW Youx, JUNE s.—The money market had a down-
ward turn, with a dull and heavy feeling. Money was in
active demand on call. Prices of stock had generally re-
ceded. Foreign exchange inactive. London, 1081 to 109; ;
Parts, 5,10 to 5,121 ; Amsterdam, 41 to 42k.
COTTON—(From W. P. Wright's Circular, of June 5.)
—The transactions during the past week have been of a
very trifling nature, and have been confined to the filling
of a few limited orders for foreign account, and the pur-
chases by our domestic consumers. Total sales for the
week about 5,000 • bales. Prices are irregular, closing
heavily, at a decline on the week of kc. per lb. on middling
qualities. The better grades being scarce, are not so much
affected, while increased difficulty exists in making sales
at a fair difference in price of mixed lists of barely middling
and lower finalities. The export for the week has been as
follows :—Liverpool, 9,391 bales ; Glasgow, 827 ; Havre,
2,418 ; Antwerp, 305 ; Hamburg, 25 ; total; 12,994 bales.
The following is a statement of the movement in cotton
since the Ist of September last, as compared with the pre-
vious three years :

- 1854. 1853. 1852. 1851.
Receipts at the ports.. 2,674,000 3,117,000 2,891,000 2,225,000
Exports to Gt. Britain, 1,271,000 1,508,000 1,454,000 1,164,003
„ France .... 266,000 389,000 386,000 287,000

.. , . .
other for. ports, 274,000 309,000 307,000 216,000
Total exports
Stock on band 515,000 372,000 304,000 370,009

From which it will be seen that the decrease in receipts
now amounts to 442,000 bales ; the decrease in exports to
Great Britain, 237,000 ; to France, 123,000 ; other foreign
ports, 35,000. Total decrease in exports, 395,000 bales.
BREADSTUFFS.—The flour market was easier ; sales at
$9 to $9,372 for State, and $9,37/ to $9,75 for Ohio and
Michigan. Southern flour heavy. Wheat heavy, sales of
good Western at $1,90; Corn lower; sales at 74c. to 80c.
PROVISIONS.—Without alteration in prices.
'FBEIGHTS.—To Liverpool, for cotton, 3-16 d. per lb.
Flour, ls. 9d. per barrel. Grain, in ship's bags, sd. to
6d. per bushes. To London, flour, 2s. to 2s. 6d. per barrel.
To Havre, cotton, ie. per lb.
NEW ORLEANS, JUNE s.—Cotton unchanged ; sales to-
day 4,50() bales ; quotation for middling, Bc. Flour ad-
vanced a trifle ; Ohio, $6 80c. Corn unchanged and in
moderate demand. Pork dull.

THE WAR.

ALTHOUGH the progress of the war has not yet
presented any very striking incidents, owing to the
delay which must necessarily take place before the
many parties engaged can act with effect, the
course which operations will take assume a more
tangible form. It is now pretty clear that a blow
must be struck at the power of Russia in the Cri-
mea, by the destruction of the fortress of Sebas-
topol, and for this object every exertion should be
made, as the possession of this stronghold by Russia
is the mainstay of her strength in the Black Sea.
Many difficulties, however, present themselves,
owing to the natural position of the fortress, and
the rocky coast to a considerable distance around
presenting few facilities for effecting a landing.
British seamen are, however, notorious for over-
coming obstacles, and great advantage will be
derived from the co-operation of the Circassian
forces on the land side ; and, when the whole of
the allied fleets can be brought into united action,
we may anticipate that all which human Oa and
courage can effect will be done to accomplish the
end in view. In the meantime, the Turks have
bravely held their strong hold, Silistria, against a
powerful Russian ; army and, when the military
expeditions of France and England shall have
arrived to their assistance, we may shortly expect
to hear of the Russians being compelled to raise
the siege and retreat with precipitation. The oper-
ations of the allied fleets in the Baltic are necessa-
rily more protracted, from the natural difficulties
which they have to encounter ; but, though the
fortress of Cronstadt—the great key to Northern
Russia—may not be as impregnable as the Rus-
sians would have us :believe, it may be some time
yet before we can reasonably expect to hear of any
decided advantage to the allies in this quarter. Sir
CRARLES NAPIER has full employment in establish-
ing an effective blockade of the numerous ports
and the immense extent of rocky coasts in the Baltic,
may require further reinforcements before he will
be in a position to attempt an assault of a fortress
so strongly defended as that of Cronstadt, so that
those who are eagerly looking for important news
from this quarter must restrain their impatience
for a while. Diplomacy, however, is still active in
negotiations, and while Austria, it is believed, is
endeavouring to promote an armistice, to which
Russia would too readily accede, it is strongly sus-
pected that the English Cabinet, or, at least, the
nominal head of it, would willingly lend an ear to
such an arrangement, although the manifest effect
of it must be to sacrifice the enormous outlay
already incurred, and to render nugatory all that
has hitherto been effected. At the same time, the
little business which Parliament has to do is being
hurried through in morning sittings, in order to
close the Session, so that the representatives of
public opinion shall have no opportunity of indig-
nantly protesting against the suspected treachery
of the Cabinet.

CATTLE

LIVERPOOL, JUNE 19.—We have had a smaller
supply of cattle to-day, which met a ready sale at fully
id per lb. improvement in value. The supply of sheep
and lamb also smaller, and good qualities made id per lb.
more money. Good beef worth 7d to 7-'2d per lb. ; mutton,
61d to 7d per lb.; lamb, 7d to lid per lb.
SALFORD, JUNE 14.—Cows, 1,050 ; sheep and lambs,
9,600. The best heifer beef, 7id to ltd; strong useful
heifers and bullocks, 6d to 7d; cows and bulls, 41d to
Sid; the best wedders, lid to 71d; fat heavy sheep and
ewes, bid to 7d ; lamb, 6d to 7d ; calves, 6d to 7d. A
sharp market for beef, but owing to the heavy supply of
mutton and lamb many lots were left unsold.
DUBLIN, JUNE 15.—The market to-day was only
very poorly supplied with really good beef, which fully
maintained last week's high prices. There was a bad
supply of good sheep, not at all so good as this day week
consequently good lots readily fetched last week's price.
There was a large supply of lambs, mostly very inferior
and not fit for butcher's use, and which sold at very low
figures. The top lots were—beef, 70s per cwt, sinking
offal; mutton, 7d per lb. in skin ; veal, 8d per lb. ' - lambs,
26s each. Ordinary prices ranged—beef, 63s to 65s ;
inferior, 54s to 60s; mutton, in sink, 52d to 61d a 6i,41;
lamb, sid to 7d ; veal, 8d to Sid per lb. A large calf
trade, and prices of yearlings variable. Pig season out.
No export demand nor slaughter, so that the market was
wholly confined to stores, from 15s to 45s to 50s each for
rearing and feeding.

FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH.-
Price 2s. 6d. Patronised by Her Majesty the Queen,
and His Royal Highness Prince Albert.
MR. HOWARD'S PATENT WHITE SUCCEDANEUM,
For filling Decayed Teeth, however large the cavity, even if
the Tooth is Broken down to the Gums. It is superior to
anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft
state, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time be-
comes as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the
tooth for many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It
arrests all further progress of decay, and renders them again
useful in mastication. All persons can use the Succedaneum
themselves with ease, as full directions are enclosed.
Prepared only by THOMAS HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 17,
George-street, Hanover-square, London, who will send the
Succedaneum free by Post to any part of tile Kingdom, Price
2s. 6d. Sold by all respect Able Medicine Vendors in the king-
dom. LOSS OF TEETH.
A new and very curious invention connected with Dental
Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, it is the pro-
duction of an entirely new description of Artificial Teeth,
fixed by his New Patent System of Self-adhesion and Capillary
Attraction without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so per-
fectly resemble natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from
the originals by the closest observer. They will never change
colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the extrac-
tion of any teeth or roots, or any painful operation whatever,
and from the nature of the materials used the most perfect fit
is obtained. The invention is of importance to many persons,
and those who are interested in it, should avail themselves of
this new method.

Mr. HowA Ito, Surgeon Dentist,l7, George-street, Hanover-
square, London. At home from 11 till 4.
Mr. HOWARD'S new principle of fixing Artificial Teeth has
obtained the approbation and, recommendation of the follow-
ing eminent Physicians and Surgeons:—Sir James Clark,
Bart., Physician to her Majesty; Dr. Locock, Physician Ac-
coucheur to her Majesty; Sir B. C. Brodie, Bart., Sergeant
Surgeon to her Majesty; Sir D. Davies, Physician to her
Majesty the Queen Dowager; Dr. Merriman, Physician to
her R.H. the Duchess of Kent; and numerous other mem-
bers of the medical profession.

THE TWO BISHOPS.

A recent Sydney paper contained an account of a voyage
made in company by the Bishops of New Zealand and
Newcastle, among the Islands, which would interest many
an old "Johnian" recalling the names of "Selwyn and
Tyrrell" and the " Ladye Margarette" boat :
"Oh, merry were those days of old,
Beside Cam's lazy stream;
And oft-times, in life's busy track,
The memories of those days rush back,
Like a forgotten dream.

"The river's alive with moving boats—
The shore with a shouting crew—
And the men of St. John
Dart foremost on,

For their oars are stout and true ;

" And we proudly deem that, of all the craft
That e'er on the river met,
The bravest boat that was ever afloat
Is our Ladye Margarette.'

-64 Where are they now, our fearless band,
Who toiled in the mimic strife?
'Whe best have sped with sail or oar?
And who lie stranded on the shore
Of this rough stream of life?

-" Aye, merry were those dais of old,
The sunniest days on earth !
Yet no thought of glee
Brought now to me
The memory of this mirth.

4"Twas a vision of a lonely barque
On the broad Pacific wave—
A barque of little pride or rtate,
But one that bears a priceless freight,
In two true hearts and brave.

-" I seem to watch them on their way—
The gentle and the just—
Gone nobly forth to brave and bear
Peril and pain, and toil and care
Firm in their watchword—'Trust.'

-" And I ask, In their earnest labours now
Ah, do they quite forget,
How in youth's bright weather
They pulled together,
In the Ladye Margarette?'

" Or, sometimes, on their vessel's deck,
When they rest at close of day,
.Do they talk of many a friendly band,
-Linking their hearts to their fatherland—
That land so far away?

-" Do they think of us in our English homes,
Who fondly remember yet,
How they were two •
Of our joyous crew,
In the ‘Ladye Margarette?'"

LIFE INSU.RANCE.

THERE is, perhaps, no class of men to whom the prac-
tice of Life Assurance is of greater importance than the
Clergy. With few exceptions, their means of subsistence
do not extend beyond their lives, and in many instances
are more precarious, so that any provision for a widow
and children can only be looked for from a policy of life
assurance, in order that death may not leave the loved
ones altogether destitute. Our readers will see, by an
announcement in our advertising columns, that a new
society has been formed, under the title of English and
Irish Church and University Assurance Society, especially
designed for the advantage of the clergy ; and not the
least important of its features is, the reservation of twenty
per cent. of its profits for that excellent institution " The
Friend of the Clergy." As its claims to attention are de-
tailed at some length in the prospectus, we refer our
readers to that interesting document.

CARDINAL WisEmeN.—We have received a letter from
Mr. J. WISEMAN, of Brunswick-street, in this town, re-
ferring to a paragraph in our last paper, headed " Car-
dinal Wiseman absconded ;" and saying, " As you are
perfectly aware that Cardinal Wiseman has neither
' absconded' nor `bolted.' " We may remark that, in no
other way does the letter contradict the paragraph referred
to ; and, further, that we are not aware of any of Car-
dinal WISEMAN'S movements, further than we find them
occasionally related in newspapers. The paragraph in
question was copied, as we stated at the time, from the
Dublin Evening Express ; and we copy the following
from the Morning Chronicle, a few days since :—" We
believe that events will confirm the report with reference
to Cardinal Wiseman, which appeared in our columns
some time back, and which was contradicted by one
Romanist contemporary, and doubted by auother. It has,
we believe, been for some time determined at Rome that
the Cardinal will not return to England, or that, if he
does, it will be only for a short time, to settle some of the
temporal and spiritual affairs of his community. At all
events, it is known that he has taken a palace adjoining
the parish church in Rome, of which he is the rector, as
one of the College of Cardinals, and that his carriage and
horses have heen sent for from England. It is gene-
rally supposed that the Cardinal will still retain the title
of an English Archbishop ; and that either the Right
Rev. Dr. Grant, of Southwark, will administer the spi-
ritual affairs of the metropolitan district, or else that Dr,
1111athorne, of Birmingham, will be translated."

jIIDICIOUS STATEMENT OF THE CASE.

" The Romish priest, in common with the Wesleyan
minister, and those of the Baptist, Independent, or any
other denomination of religionists differing from the
Church of England, is free, on the request of any prisoners,
in accordance with the above regulations, to visit mem-
bers of his own communion. What more can be done ?
what more can be reasonably expected or required ? Im-
prisonment implies the endurance of some hardship and
privations. It implies also, a just and adequate cause for
them ; and so long as the State affords to all those who
have violated its laws, and are suffering punishment in
consequence, due facilities for receiving spiritual advice
and consolation at the hand of some minister of his own
religions persuasion, what ground is there for complaint ?
What excuse for contracting fresh national guilt, by en-
dowing the emissaries and agents of the Church of Rome,
and giving them a permanent status with the clergy of
the Established Church in all those prisons, where a
certain number of Roman Catholic prisoners may be con-
fined ? What opportunities, what temptations to prose-
lytism will be hereby afforded! and on what principle
shall a Roman Catholic priest be salaried by the State,
because there is a certain number of Roman Catholic
prisoners, on which we may not also he called on to endow
one, two, three, four, or more ministers of other religious
denomimations differing from the Church of England ?
"The Roman Catholic prisoners, it may be, do not want

the priest. If they do, they can now have him by asking
for him. If they do not, ought we to force a priest upon
them ? If, as in America, the emigrants are glad to
escape the tyranny of the priest, shall we step in to pre-
vent it ? Shall we aid the priest to recapture those who
may wish for ever to be free from him ; and turn our gaols
into traps the better to secure the hold which Popery may
have upon its victims ?"
Besides the article from which the above has
been quoted, the number contains several papers
of deep interest to the Protestant community ; and
is wound up by an epitomised condensation of
religious literary intelligence.

Index to Familiar Quotations.
Walmsley.

Liverpool:

Mr. Grocott has given us the second part of his
" Index to Familiar Quotations," commencing with
the letter I, and leaving us in the middle of Sleep,
a very appropriate finale, and one on which we may
expect more to be said, as it is a favourite subject
with many authors. It is not denying the credit
due to Mr. Grocott for his well-directed labours
to say, that his subject is so comprehensive as to
render it capable of considerable extension; and
after the present edition has received that measure
of public support which it deserves, there will be
a call for a new and enlarged edition.
