to. The Recorder than said, upon the first indictment
he should sentence him to seven years' transportation,

IRVINGISM.—The body of religionists in London,
popularly known as Irvingites (a title, however, which
they indignantly repudiate, although they revere the
memory of Edward Irving), are at

Within the bounds of the metropolis they have
seven churches,—a sort of imitation of the seven apoca-
lyptic churches ' • and Newman-street, where Mr. Irving
used to preach, is a sort of Jerusalem. Here, once a
month, representatives from these seven churches assem-
ble; and although the reputation of the party is associated
with ideas of fanaticism and absurdity, the proceedings of
the managers and leaders are characterised by much
shrewdness and worldly wisdom. Mr. Drummond, for-
merly of the banking firm of Drummond and Co., but now
a country gentleman, and one of the members for West
Surry, is understood to be still connected with the body,
which is actively endeavouring to increase its influence by
the accession of other names of repute. Hence, the re-
ported retirement of the Honourable and Rev. Baptist
Noel from the establishment, has had for them a peculiar
interest, because it has been mixed up with the hope that
he may 'nave been looking in their direction.—Manchester

FATAL AFFRAY WITH POACHERS.—On Saturday morn-
ing week, between one and two o'clock, a fatal affray took
place between a party of poachers, armed with guns, and
the head keeper of Gerard Salvin, Esq., of Croxdale-hall,
near Durham. It appears that the keeper, named Boyd,

poachers. As soon as they came in sight three of the
poachers in rapid succession cried out " stand hack or we
will shoot," and instantly some one of the party dis.

wounding him s

he fell ; but having in a short time recovered a little, he
discharged both barrels of his gun at the poachers, who
then disappeared. On the same day, police-constable
Miller, stationed at Tudhoe, and some other persons,

whilst searching in the neighbourhood where the affray
took place, found one of the poachers, named John Coul-
sore lying in the wood, wounded in the right thigh, with a
pheasant and his gun lying beside him._ The gun was
