BUT BELONGS OF RIGHT TO THE CHURCH ITSELF."  But we must in mercy stay our pen; and, in conclusion,  thank Archdeacon GLOVER for referring us to the "faith of our primithe founders." By that faith we are content to stand. They bled for our hearths and altars—  they were massacred by popish fiends—they felt the horrors of the inquisition, the torments of the rack. They saw and exclaimed against that creed, by which he is declared the greatest saint who is the most expeditious suicide. They did not, as.did the papists, retire to the cloister, in order the more readily to deform virtue, nor did they betake themselves to the schools to mistify faith. To our "primitive founders" we look back with grati_ tude. We praise and bless GOD for having enabled them to strike off the fetters of Romish superstition, and to loose themseles from the manacles of papal bondage. And while we thus praise and bless GOD for the past, we look to him for help in the time to come. And if we look and pray faithfully for this, we may safely and boldly say, let the sons of Belial conspire and contrive what they please—let the covetous priests build seven altars and add seven more to them, and let theth offer upon every one seventy times seven bullocks, and as many rams, masses, relics, candles, posts, and what they please— let them lay their crafty heads together, aye, even call up the ministers of Pandemonium to their consultation— let them prepare every torture, and summon to their aid every rebel apostate, and we can still exclaim, all is vain,  for "He that sittetli in the heavens will laugh. The LORD shall have them in derision, he shall speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure."  We have done with this Archdeacon GLOVER, and to all those who like repasts, fit only for the furies, we say, feed still on the lacerated entrails of your distracted church, but beware—" The day of retribution is at hand."  From a list of about three hundred notices of motions,  entered in the books of the House of Commons last week, we select the following as curiosities. Mr. Buckingham—bill for authorising the constitution of courts of honour, as tribunals for the adjudication of those disputes now commonly decided by an appeal to arms; with a view to provide a competent substitute for the absurd, murderous, and unchristian practice of duelling.
