Thus did his Grace, by implication, pronounce sen-

that the great bulk of the Lauded Proprietors, nosy
Members of Moth Nooses of Parliament, Whig and
Tory, and even Members of the Cabinet, are of opinion
that the tithe system in Ireland ought to be very much
changed. if not altogether abolished. This denun-
ciation from a Christian teacher against all who dif-
fer in opinion from him, is sot charitable, although •
Christ taught charity. Neither, In our humble opinion,
is the dowries of " ample rewards," that is, menses
amounting to twenty. forty, and fifty thousand pounds
and upwards, perfectly Scriptural; although the
learned Lord Primate may defend its orthodoxy.
We question whether the possessors of these ample
rewards are much better qualified to preach and pro-
pagate Christianity, and to repel the snacks of scep-
tics and scorner., this the poor preachers who ap-
proximate somewhat closer to the condition of Christ's
disciples.

ous apprelmosionsion that score) that no human being,
not interested temporally in the affair, will coincide

" ample mord*" for the teachers of Christianity.

•the various roads from the coast to the interior. On
Thursday the tobacco was lodged in the King's Stores
in this city.
Amossea Stumm—Nineteen bales of smuggled to.
haws seized near Killalton, about two miles west of
Bontnahon, were brought in here on Wednesibm, and
lodged in the Custom-house by Luke Iherren,
Esq. late Coast Surveyor of that district (now snprrAn•
nnated), and Lieut. Morris, commanding she Preventive
Water Guards in that quarter.
Yesterday 34 more hales, or rather half bales, of about
60ibs. each, were sent in by Mr. Barron. They were
seised at aarrantartan, near Sanitation, in this county.
Another of the crew of the Isis has been liberated.
The investigation stands adjourned to Monday. The

Thursday week, oft Westport, the Harlequin, slurp

six or seven thousand pounds.

THE BISHOP OF CLOCIHER.
(111011 11/1 DUBLIN PATRIOT.)
The course determiaed open is that of deprivation.
It had been proposed on the part of the Bishop, that
he should resign at oars all his ecclesiastical dignities,
In order is spare the authorities, and particularly the
Right Rev. Prelates who are to he his judges, the
pain of a procedure se distressing, and se calculated
at the same time to keep the unhappy affair still
longer fresh in the public view. But, after every
eoasiiersties of tke•'abject, it hail been deemed in-
dispensable to take tie coarse sternly directed by the
ecclesiastical law. The Church Establishment de-
mands the assertion of its parity; and the stain which
the criminality of as individual connected with it has
se lamentably cast upon the high and sacred order to
which be belonged, mast, cossequently, be effaced. by
open deprivation and punishment, enforced and pro-
nounced in the face of the country.

The necessary citations have been some time issued,
and the charge or libel has already been furnished to
the accused party. The process, which required the
time which has. elapsed, is now-nearly completed, and
It is explorer' mat sae jutil;ative proceeding will lake

The Lord Prbpote, as heed of the Church aid so-
'romo Eccleslar.ical Judge is Ireland, will sit in the
Illossepolitas Court of Armagh. The followieg are

asesesors:—Dr. Alexander, Lard Bishop
of Dotes; Dr. Sande, Lord Bishop of Droinore ; Dr.
Knox, Lord Bishop of Derry; Dr. Bassett, Lord Bi-
shop of Wapitis t- Dr. &realms!, Lord Bishop of KU-
note. • : •
It boa:bees staled to se as somewhat doubtful, whe-
ther the Lord Bishop of Down, owing to peculiar cir-
cumfusion, will act as in assessor. In such an event,
another Prelate inset, of sours', be appointed in his
Lordship's room.
No appearasee will be entered by the accused—a
civet:instance which, however happily it may operate
is other respects. will necessarily retard the proceed-
ings considerably.
it has been confidently rumoured during the last
few days, that the Hon. and very Rev. the Dean of
St. Patrick's is to °Maio. not the Bisheprick of Down,
but that of Clogher. We believe, however, that Dr.
Aletaeder, the present Bishop of Down, will be trans-
lated to Clogber, as was originally mentioned ; and
that the then vacant See, Down, will be worthily con-
ferred upon the excellent Doctor Ponsonby.

KIDNAPPII4O.-.-On Thursday evening, about the
hour of seven o'clock, a Geralemma passing through
flerersart-street, beard the plaintive cry of a young
child is a field adjoining, and proceeding to the spot
from whence the sound issued, be there found a mate
child, about two years of age, naked, and crying pl.
teoosly. The only account the poor baby could give
of itself was, that it lived In Thomas-street. The
Gentleman paid a woman for bringing it to College-
street Poliareifice, from whence men were despatched
to inflates through Thomas-street, if any person io
that oeigbboarbood bad lost a child. They, however,
returned without being able to find any clue whereby
they might ascertain who were ha parents. It has'
subsequently beea discovered that the child's parents
live is South Earl street. Tue child has, of coarse,
been since restored to them. We understand that
they had been nearly la a state of distraction on ac-
costa of its loss. There is little doubt that the peer
child wad dessyed from its home by some stake; ng
wretch. Who stripped It of its clothes, and left it to pe-
