,e present week, the weather has assumed a cha-

t from that prevalent before, having

h hot sunshine, and such as is cal-

D allay the fears previously entertained of injury to
,rnos from the late cold, wet, and ungenial at-

desirable improvement appears general on
country and in Ireland, but on the east coast
1 some parts of the

south, recent accounts do

a change so favourable, and though not
.oe markets in those directions were still rather on
, advance. Here, within the past two days, the trade has
remained upon the whole rather languid ; a few transactions
have taken place in Wheat for consumption, and for Flour we
have had a moderate demand, at the rates of Tuesday : the
supplies received since that date are collectively very small,
as will be seen by the subjoined list of arrivals.

Influenced by the foregoing considerations, the trade this

Da. FUSEY'S SERMON.—The Rev. J. J. Randolph has
addressed a letter to the Times, stating that his name was
attached to the address to the Vice-chancellor of Oxford, on
the subject of Dr. Pusey's sermon, without either his know-
ledge or authority; and the Rev. E. M. Goulburn has also
written to the London papers, stating that he affixed his
signature to the same document from a wish to know in de-
tail what were the condemned propositions, and without the
slightest idea that in doing so he implied either approbation
of the sermon or censure of the sentence which condemned it.
The latter gentleman says that he is stating the case of others
also.

TRACTARIANISM AND POPERY.—At the hnnual meeting
of the Roman Catholic Institute a very general theme of dis-
cussion seems:to have been the improving prospects given to
Romanism by the Tractarian heresy. The scandal which Dr.
Pusey has so recently brought upon the University of Oxford
was instanced by nearly every speaker as a proof of the pro-
gress which Popery has made and is making in the Church
of England ; and one priest, in the fervour of his zeal, nar-
rated an incident which, if true, ought most assuredly. to
excite the hierarchy of the establishment to increased vigi-
lance, and the laity to greater reflection. We give it as the
reverend speaker told it to the meeting :
" The Rev. Mr. O'Neal congratulated the meeting upon
the progress which the Church of England was making to-
wards their faith. Not long since of the Oxford divines was
speaking to a Roman Catholic clergyman, who reproached
him for his want of promptness in giving in his adhesion to
the Church of Rome. The Oxford divine answered that he
certainly did believe every part of the Roman Catholic re-
ligion ; that he believed in the real presence, in the efficacy
of priestly absolution, in the comfortable consolation of the
invocation of saints ; that he did believe in purgatory and
every other point of Catholic doctrine, but that he also be-
lieved the time for joining the Catholic religion was not yet
arrived, though he hoped it soon would. (Cheers.)"
Five years ago we would at once have bestowed the lie direct
on such a statement ; that we cannot do so now is the fault
of the Tractarians. 13e this statement true or false, similar
ones are in the mouths of every Romanist, and names once
familiar as the bulwarks of Protestantism are now claimed
as converts to, and said to be believers in, the tenets of
Popery.
