THE SCOTCH CHURCH.

THE MEEKNESS OF SECESSION.—The Witness, which
is the official organ of the tree-and-easy Kirk. pronounces,
ex cathedra, the following fiery interdict :—" Let the
parish minister be regarded as virtually the one excom-
municated man of the district—the man with whom no
one is to join in prayer, whose church is to be avoided as
an impure and unholy place, who is everywhere to be put
under the ban of the community." " The Established
Church of Scotland (says Dr. Macdonald, late of Ferin-
tosh,) is a God-dishonouring, Christ-denying, and soul-
destroying church." Mr. Campbell, of Monzie, said,
amid the cheers of the whole Free Secession ministry at
Glasgow, that " his course as a seceder was one of deter-
mined opposition to the Established Church,an opposition
which would not stop short of using every Christian and
constitutional means of sweeping it out of existence."
" The Church of Scotland (says Dr. Candlish) is wilfully,
and the Church of England is ignorantly Erastian, and
both are mountains that must be levelled in order to make
way for a free Gospel."

DEATHS

The deaths in the year ending December 31, 1841,
amounted to 343,847. Upon comparing the deaths in
1840 and 1841, there will be found a decrease of 16,787.
The deaths were more numerous (99,069) in the winter
of 1841 than in the winter of any preceding year ; but in
the spring the decline commenced, which reduced the
mortality in the following quarters below t'le mean mor-
tality of the four years. The deaths in the four winter
quarters, viz., those of 1839, 1810, and 1841, were
385,764; in the four summer quarters, 305,333; the
deaths in the four springs, 355,248; in the autumns,
338,662. If the mortality were uniformly at the same
rate as in the winter, 391.059 deaths would happen annu-
ally; if at the same rate as in summer, 302,827 deaths
would be registered. These exhibit the striking effects of
cold upon mortality • also of the crowding and privations
to which a considerable portion of the population is ne-
cessarily more exposed in cold than in warm weather.
The births and deaths are most numerous in winter, mar-
riages in autumn; whilst the smaller number of births
and deaths occur in summer, and marriages in winter.
An elaborate tabular statement, we are happy to say,
establishes a decrease of the high rate of mortality which
prevailed in 1839 and 1840 in the manufacturing divisions.
The marriages and births are most numerous where the
mortality is highest.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 2.
The trade during the week has been of much the same cha-
racter as was described by our last report, little inclination
being shown for business by purchasers, with as litt.e on the
part of holders to submit to more than a trifling reduction on
particular qualities of each article.
Prices in the agricultural districts of the United Kingdom are
still out of proportion high, as compared with those of the con-
suming markets ; nor does it appear probahle that sufficient
supply will he brought forward by farmers at anything less than
present rates, their inclination evidently being to try for an ad-
vance.
The list of imports exhibit a fair supply of Irish Flour and
Oatmeal, and moderate of other articles. The Wakefield arri-
vals are moderate.
At Liverpool, yesterday, there was a fiat market, though
without any very mark d reduction, whilst at Wakefield a good
business was done, Wheat bringing an advance of Is per quar-
ter, and other articles fully maintaining their previous value.
Though we have no briskness in the trade here to-day, we
consider the market, as regards Wheat and Flour, somewhat
firmer, and there is more inclination to do business at the prices
of this day week.
Oats and Oatmeal fiat, and inclining downwards. Malt and
Beans steady, at late prices. Other articles without variation.

THE COURT.

ACCOUCHEMENT OF HER MAJESTY.—WE have the
best authority for announcing that this highly-interesting
event is expected to take place at the latter end of June
or the early part of July next, and that all the necessary
preparations and arrangements, have been made accord-
ingly. The royal yacht will be in readiness for the ma-
rine excursions of her Majesty and the Prince Consort
by the first or second week in August—Britannia.

We are able, says the Times to state, upon what we
consider pretty correct authority, that there is no truth
in the statement copied from the German press, that
Prince Albert will inherit great wealth from his father.
The estates are all strictly entailed, and will, of course,
devolve upon his royal highness's eldest brother, the
reigning duke.

THE SCOTCH CHURCH.

THE MEEKNESS OF SECESSION.—The Witness, which
is the official organ of the tree-and-easy Kirk, pronounces,
ex cathedra, the following fiery interdict :—" Let the
parish minister be regarded as virtually the one excom-
municated man of the district—the man with whom no
one is to join in prayer, whose church is to be avoided as
an impure and unholy place, who is everywhere to be put
under the ban of the community." " The Established
Church of Scotland (says Dr. Macdonald, late of Ferin-
tosh,) is a God-dishonouring, Christ-denying, and soul-
destroying church." Mr. Campbell. of Monzie. said,
amid the cheers of the whole Free Secession ministry at
Glasgow, that " his course as a seceder was one of deter-
mined opposition to the Established Church,an opposition
which would not stop short of using every Christian and
constitutional means of sweeping it out of existence."
" The Church of Scotland (says Dr. Candlish) is wilfully,
and the Church of England is ignorantly Erastian, and
both are mountains that must be levelled in order to make
way for a free Gospel."

The most desirableand hidilyimprovable FREEHOLD

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

The harrigterc who acted ac flommiationera in Bank-
ruptcy, before the passing of the new act, and who were
superseded when it came into operation, have had their
claim. for compensation settled. Mr. Leigh Trafford, of
the Chester circuit, receives £4BO.
THE EXCISE.—We have already stated that Mr. More-
ton Carr has been appointed to succeed Mr. Dehany, as
solicitor of excise in England. It is now understood that
the salary of Mr. Carr is fixed at £2,000 a year, by a
reduction of £5OO on the amount hitherto received by
the solicitor of that department. The office of solicitor
of excise in Scotland, with a salary of £1,500 per annum,
which was lately filled by Mr. Carr, will, we hear, be
done away with as a separate appointment, and the esta-
blishment of clerks be otherwise provided for. By this
new arrangement £3,000 a-year will be saved to the pub_

LORD W ILLIAM PAGET V. THE EARL OF CARDIGAN.
—CRIM Cos.—On Tuesday morning the Court of Cm.
mon Pleas was crowded to excess by persons anxious to
hear this celebrated cause, which, although originally
fixed to come on in the course of the last sittings, passed
off, it will be recolleeted, from the absence of Winter,
who was stated to be a material witness. During the last
term Mr. Sergeant Channel! applied to the court to enter
a verdict of commit for the defendant, which was refused,
on the grounds that the plaintiff should given peremptory
undertaking to go to trial. Sir Thomas Wilde, Mr. Ser-
geant Talfourd, arid Mr. Wordsworth conducted the
plaintiff's case ; the Solicitor-General, Mr. Sergeant
Channel), and another gentleman appeared for the de-
fence. The damages were laid at £15,000. Sir Thotmis
Wilde shortly stated the plaintlrs case, and called wit-
nesses, whose examinatiun lasted near:v the entire tl,ny.
The Solicitor-General then proceeded to address the in, y
for the defendant, immediately after which the jury re-
turned a verdict fur the defendant, which was received
with applause in con t.
