From the Hampshire (ERglaad) Chron-
icle we learn that the Rev, L. Dugard, late
curate of ST. Thomas Church, Portsmouth,
has resigned his charge in that parish, un-
der the following circumstances: Mr., Dug
ard had organized Bible-classes and prayer
meetings; ''this gave rise to much discuss
ion among the members of the Church, and
led to dissension, the result of which was,
that although the classes had received the
approval of the Bishop ofthe diocese, Mr..
Dugard was advised to resign .: al
The Missionary-ship, the "JoAa Va
liams," has again left the port of London
, ffor the distant Islands of the Pacific. This
is her fourth voyage thither; and, as on
former occasions, she is expected to be alb
sent four years.
The Protestant Consistory at Munich
has issued decree in the name of the King
against mixed marriages; exhorting the
clergy to warn their flock against them.-
If they do take place, then, on certain CON
ditions, the clerical blessings is not to be
withheld as for example, if the children
are brought up as Protestants, or the boys
follow the fathers religion, and the girls
the religion of the mothers. The severest
penalties of the Church may be expected,
if all the children of such marriages are
brought up as Romon Catholics. ..
A Scripture reader, named Hunt, be-
longing to Birmingham, who was on an
excursion trip to North Wales, while at
tempting the ascent of Carnedd Llewelin,
fell over cliff 80 feet high, at the Penrhyn
slate quarries, last week, and was killed.
The body was not recovered for some days.
Recent accounts from India mention the
gratifying fact, as ascertaiaed by official
census, that the Sikh religion is rapidly
dying out in the Punjaub. We need hard
ly remind our readers that the form of
Hindooism known under this name look
its rise in comparatively modern times, and
was an attempt to quicken and revivify the
old etfete and decaying forms of the Hindoo
religion by infusing into it some portion of
that life and visor which is to be derived
from military fanaticism. 1t was, in a
word, the last, may We hope the expiring,
effort of Hindooism to vindicate for itself
the character of being a power and an ac-
tive force to move the spirits and mould
the destinies of man. We need hardly say
that, for time, its success was signal, and
the conquest and occupation of the Punjaub
Did fair to be the monument of its ZEAL
1t is not many years ago that the sect,
though no longer in the first flush of its
prowess, maintained for time doubtful
contest with British valor and discipline.
Since the conquest of their country and the
establishment of the British sway, the heart
OF the new faith seems to have died out;
its life is fast expiring, and the Sikhs as a
religious body are fast falling back into the
worn-out forms of the old Hindooism.-
This, and the frequent conversions of the
intelligent youth of the country to the
Christian faith, constitute cheering sign
of the times.

sYThe Democracy of this county held their
Primary election on Saturday last. 1twas the
tamest affair of the kind that ever came of
here. In about one half of the townships no
election was held. and in all about 500 votes
were polled-one half of them in this township.
We cannot find any one that can inform us who
was nominated, or whether anybody was

1t is stated by the Philadelphia Bulletin that
Mr.. BREoK1NEIDGE really made proposition to
Mr.. BUCHANAN at the Wheatlands during his
visit, on the subject of his withdrawal.
The plan is to get Mr.. DoNELsoN to withdraw

Such ticket Mr. BRECKENRIDGE thinks will be
likely to succeed against FREMONT and DAYTON.
What is to be done about the two platforms

A Washington despatch to the New York

IL am crcdibly informed that the Ameri-

determined to recommend all the lodges Of
the State to cast their vote for Buchanan
instead Of Fillmore. This cdct has been
privately communicated to the members Of
the order, and there is no reason to doubt
that it Will be carried out. The grounds for
taking such course are, that the elections
have proved that MIR Fillmore cannot carry

chance oi ius receiving any electoral votes
from the north, and that it behooycs the
south to present "A united front in such
