cS- Deyout Churchmen will receive the follow
ing statement from Srotch paper, with many
grains of allowance The Free Church Of Scot
land would encourage secession from the estab-
lishment after its example, believing it par
adoxical that woman should be the head in that
church in which it's chief apostle has said that
"a woman should not lift up her voice, or suffer
herself to be heard IF the movement be evan
reli, al and sustained by antipathy to Puseyism,
the Church will be the sufferer, but IT not. the
Establishment will gain by the loss OF disor-
ganizing element
"ALLEpGEp INTENDED SECESSION OF SIXTY CLEK-
cY4EN FROM THE ESTABLISHMENTS morn
ing Advertiser has the following in large type ::
I"fmpending large secession from the Church OF
England. We are enabled to make an announce
ment to-day which will create a deep sensation IN
the religious world. 1t is that of an impending
large ec.ssion of clergymen from the church OF
England Most of our readers will, however, be
gratitied to learn that the forthcoming secession,
will be of very different kind from that which
we have 80 often had to record during the last
few years namely a secession from the Church
of England to the Church of Rome. The direc
Ii IN which those clergymen who are about to
lave the Establishment will take will be quite
d;E.rent IL will be towards the formation of
new Church of Engian1, TO he called the Free
Church of England. From 20 to 30 clergymen
of the establishment, all of them distinguished
for their evangelical views, and number OF them
popular preachers, met some DAYS go IN LONDON:
from all parts of the country, Tor the purpose OF
concertinp such measures as may give the great.
eat effect to the intended secession. They all
leave the Establishment on purely conscientious
grounds-some of them because OF their once
tions to the principle of a religious Establish
ment !; others because of the prevalence oil fo-
perry under the guise of Puseyism in the Church,
with the connivance of the Bishops; and the rest
because of both reasons combined. The move
ment is TO take practical shape by some of the
nromoters holding 1 meeting st the Manor house
Hackney, at which The Lord Mayor IL 20 presids-
with yiew to tle Immediate erection Of a Free

DivIslos or CALIroRSlA.--l'he New Orleans
Picayuus says
1.-The project for dividing California into two
States, is much farther advanced than most peo-
pie on the Atlantic side have supposed The
South rn portion. mostly agricultural, and sup
posed to be fitted for slave labor, and to desire to
employ and lcgalizc it, has been long contendins
before the legislature for separation from the
Northern frontier, and the right to be formed in
to L 6Gparnte state
At the last session Of the Legislature, the con-
sent Of the State was given to the separation, oy
an act directing vote to Oe taken in the South
ern section, on the proposition to set up for
themselves. under new territory, to be called
when admitted into Union, with its constitution
the State of Colorado. The vote was taken and
the proposition accepted.
The legislature intending TO make this final,
provided that when this consent should be given
in the proper form, and be duly certified to the
Governor, he should issue proclamation Tor
convention, within the district to be separated
for the formation Of q constitution
It is said to be certain that the new State woo!'
adopt slaveholding constitution.
But to get into the Union with new slave
holding constitution may not ho 80 easy as to go
the consent of all parties in California, and tt
make n new constitution.
The constitution of the United States contains
provision on this subject, which will be very
much in the way Of the accomplishment OF their
desires for the division of the State. 1t says -
"No new State shall be formed or erected within
the jurisdiction of any other; nor any State be
formed by tho junction of two or more States or
parts OF States, without the consent of the leg
islatures ur t!.y States concerned, ns we'll as ot
Congress"
In the coming Congress- it is very certain that
no proposition for admitting slaveholdins State
can get through the House of Representatives.
The resistance would be long, furious and sue
cessful The project must lie over, therefore, to
some other possible Congress, in which the anti
slavery element is not as powerful ana ueternlh
ed as it will be at Washington the next two
yeSrs.

The ORGANIZATION OF THE HousE,-bUcosk ant
Grow will almost certainly be the opposing can
didateS for the Speakcrship. The former enjoy
the unboundei confidence OF the Democrac.
throughout the whole Union. The latter, W
presume, is as much the fsvOrito of the Blacl
Republicans as he was two years ago.
We believe that it is possible to elect Bocock
in view Of his superior qualifications for tho post
and the high estimation in which ha ia universal.
ly held for his great elevation Of character and
suayity of manners. lie would be, unques.iona-
hly, rs impartial and popular presiding officer
as ever was chosen by doiberative assembly -
Contrasted with Grow, the difference in fitness is
SO oyerpoweringly striking, that none but the
darkest shades of Black Republican members
could reconcile it to their conscienees to vote
against him.
The Southern oppositonis.s can entertain no
hope whatever Of electns one Of their own mem
bers. They cannot, without an abandonment of
every principle which is dear to their constituents,
contribute. either directly or indirectly, to the
election of Grow. Were they to record their
names IN favor Of the plurality rule, they would
bs lust as sensurable as though they were to vote
