Deputation to the Bishop of London.—On Friday morning a deputation from the clergy of the City of London waited upon the Bishop of London, at London House, St. James's, for the purpose of presenting to his Lordship a memorial from the clergy of the archdeaconry of London, on the subject of the recent Papal aggressions. The Rev. H. R.
