Gentlemen,—l have great pleasure in adding my testimony to the value of your Fireproof Safes. Last Monday night my house, warehouse, and premises were unfortunately burned down: The fire raged very fearfully for about two hours, and, owing to the great scarcity of water, the whole of my premises and stock were consumed. The safe I purchased o you had a most severe test, in consequence of a barrel of brimstone stand* close to it, and melting with the heat o the fire, the I•urning lava running all over and under the safe, which greatly added to the intensity of the heat. It remained in that position about four hours, and when with great diffi- culty it was got out of the fire and opened, I found my books and papers all uninjured. You are at liberty to make what use you please of this in- formation.—l am, gentlemen, yours respectfully,_ _ WM. WALKER. Messrs. Thos.

of war Liverpool are recogniied, a large contract for the easl7d plates having been entrusted to the Mersey Steel el Iron Company, and the extensive works of those gentle- men are now busy, day and night, in forging plates suffi- ciently massive for so important a purpose. To coal some idea of the magnitude and weight of these plates, . give their dimensions. They are each twelve feet looTi three feet wide, and four-and-a-quarter inches thick; eq, battery requiring four hundred tons of these plates. forge such stupendous masses is a task of great diffieull and severely does it task the ingenuity of even extensvf. complete establishments to prepare them ; yet such and so comlN,,, are the machinery and arrangements at the Mersey work that they can be manufactured of the best quality, be with a celerity in the highest degree creditable to L':f skill and efficiency of the company's works and then nploye's, and several of the enormous plates have heen ,dy made and despatched by railway from their Pr 4be The fabrication of these enormous plates, in various processes of rolling, hammering, and planeing, bse excited great interest ; and the different processes 131' been witnessed by numerous visitors, who have be: kindly permitted to inspect them. It is gratifying ned to find that Liverpool, which has so nobly distingetq itself by the liberality of its contribution to the ratT:At Fund, should be equally forward in distinguishing it in the construction of these formidable warlike engiees;to To the uninitiated it will be scarcely less interestiou, know, that it has been found by experiment, the strert,,,t of iron increases enormously in proportion to its integ'r" thickness, as compared with the same amount of Inet31„111 $e lamina, or single plates, however closely or firmly t''' may be united. Thus, eight half-inch boiler 21_tdies: strongly bolted together, being exposed to the fire of 0.1,„ nary artillery, each shot perforated the mass with certainty and ease ; but when a four-inch wrought iron plate wo'i, subjected to the same test, it was found completelysh, proof ; and even the heaviest shot directed against it distance of three hundred yards was shattered and brolte' like a snowball against a stone wall. The batteries to be protected by these formidable masses are of the following dimensions, viz. between perpendiculars, 172 feet ; length of keel forte s; nage, 146 feet ; extreme breadth, 43 feet 11 inelles. breadth for tonnage, 45 feet 5 inches; depth, 14r 331` e. Each of these gun-boats is to have two decks ; the 'l.2d to work and deck to be each SI inches thick, this the massive iron plates are to be securely bolted.

A complete managing committee, and the advocacy of the public press of Liverpool, would give perfect success to this plan, and receive the thanks of a generous public.—l am, A'-SIDE. THE LIVERPOOL PATRIOTIC FUND E exertions of the General and Ward Committees, led for collecting contributions in aid of the Patri- otic Fund, continue to be vigilant, and, we are happy to know, successful. The district or ward committees are plying their vocation with judgment and assidui their efforts are met everywhere with a most gratifying itv, and alacrity. The collections are, in most instances, nearly completed, and it is anticipated that in a short time all the local committees will be in a•condition to report very favourably of their operations. DEMONSTRATION OF THE WORKING CLASSES.-0E Tuesday evening, a numerous and enthusiastic meeting convened by his worship the Mayor, in compliance with-a requisition by the associated trades connected with the shipping of Liverpool, took place in St. George's Hall, to testify, as a working man's demonstration, in favour of the Patriotic Fund. Notwithstanding the great magni- tude of the hall, it was crowded in every part. His wor- ship the Mayor presided, and at seven o'clock precisely he entered the hall amidst loud cheers, accompanied by seve- ral members of the Town Council and gentlemen repre- senting different trades. The whole of the speakers, with the exception of his worship the Mayor, were working- men. The Mayor, after a few preliminary remarks, said it was an honour to the working-men of Liverpool, that they had set such an example to the other towns of the United Kingdom. Glad he was to see the spirit with which the hard-working population of Liverpool had taken uP this question. They indeed could truly sympathise with those for whom the fund was needed. This war truly was a people's war, undertaken with their approba- tion. His worship gave a glowing description of the gal- lant and daring deeds of our brave troops at the Alma and before Sebastopol, and said that, though they could not restore happiness to the homes of the bereaved, they could alleviate the distress and lighten the affliction of those left desolate. (Cheers.)—Mr. -IV. Neil, secretary to the 'Shipwrights' Trade Association, moved the first resolu- tion, to the effect, that the present war was just and neces- sary, and the widows and orphans of all those who fall'in 'battle, or perish through disease, were entitled to support. —Mr. George Chatterton seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclamation. Mr. Thomas Brown moved the second resolution, pledging the meeting to assist to -the utmost the fund being raised. Mr. John Smedley seconded the resolution. Mr. Thomas Linacre moved the third resolution, that every trade connected with shipping send their contributions to the committee-room, No. 36, Manesty-lane, to enable them to 'forward their whole con- tributions to the local treasurer of the general fund. The resolution also stated that committee meetings would be • held every Thursday evening, and-that statements of the amount raised would be published at future periods. Mr. Datlington seconded the motion. A vote of thanks was given to the Mayor. Cheers were given for the Queen, the Emperor of France, the Allied Armies, and the pro- ceedings terminated by Mr. Edwin Willis (brother of the builder) playing the " 'National Anthem" and " Rule Bri- tannia" on the great organ.- CASTLE-STREET WARD.—The aldermen and town-coun- cillors of Castle-street Ward convened a meeting of the inhabitants of the ward, on Wednesday evening, at the Philadelphia-chambers, for the purpose of organising sub- scriptions for the Patriotic Fund. Alderman Dover pre- sided ; and the only resolution brought forward was pro- posed and seconded by Messrs. Hornby and Wylie. The meeting was essentially a practical one, subscriptions being contributed, and a committee of -solicitation being appointed with the greatest unanimity. 'A BALL was held on Friday evening, in the Royal Assembly-rooms, Great George-street, the proceeds to be given in aid of the Royal Patriotic Fund. On the occasion there were present—Alderman and Mrs. and Miss Cooper ; Councillor and Mrs.Wagstaff ; Councillor and Mrs. Shand ; 'Councillor J. M. Wood ; Mrs. John Lawrence, Lady Patroness ; W. A. Clayton, Esq., Vice-President ; and upwards of 240 of the elite of Great George's Ward and neighbourhood. The room was decorated under the super- intendence of Mr. Richard Hall. Engravings were lent for the occasion by Mr. W. Thomson ; Messrs. Robinson contributed champagne. A set of national colours, (Eng- lish, French, and Turkish,) were presented to the ball by J. Fabert, Esq., to be afterwards inftled for, and the-proceeds handed to 'the ball .fund. After deducting alLexpenses, there will be surplus of about £6O. Mr. John Abrahams, of Fairfield, has collected and Did over to the treasurer of the patriotic fund for West erby Ward the sum of X 144 13s. 6d., including his own subscription of £3 3s. This handsome amount Mr. Abrahamseollected in the Fairfield district. About £l,lOO has already been collected in Rodney- street Ward. The collecting books' are not yet closed, and the committee will defer advertising the subscriptions until it is in a position to publish a complete list. The workmen in the employ of Messrs. Richard Evans and Co., at -the Edge-green colliery, at their last pay, subscribed the liberal sum of EU 103. ld. Messrs. Evans have also contributed £5O to the same object. The workmen in the employ of Mr. James Burrougha, builder, Leicester-street, (Scotland Ward,) have subscribed £8 to the fund. The workmen in the employment of Mr. Crellin, plumber, of Lime-street, have subscribed £l4 in aid of the fund. The clerks in the employment of Messrs. Grainger, Bristow, and Johnson have contributed amongst them- selves a large sum. The amount subscribed at Runcorn has reached £2BO. The inhabitants of Rainbill assembled on Wednesday last, and subscribed £65 to the patriotic fund. THE LANCASHIRE COUNTY CONSTABULARY have con- tributed a day's pay, amounting to £23, to the Patriotic Fund. IN Da. FISHER'S educational establishment, the pupils have raised the sum of £l4 for the Patriotic Fund. GREAT AND LITTLE CROSBY.-011 Friday evening, a numerous meeting was held in the School-room, Little Crosby, for the purpose of adopting measures to collect subseriptions in aid of the Patriotic Fund. The chair was occupied by Nicholas Blundell, Esq., of Crosby-hall, who, in a few brief and appropriate rernarlcs, explained the object of the meeting, which was also addressed by John Myers, Esq., the Rev. James Fisher, the Rev. Wilkinson, the Rev. J. Dowding, Mr. James Gerrard, and Mr. J. J. Dares. Resolutions approving of the objects of the Patriotic Fund, and pledging the meeting to use the best exertions in aid of the same, were proposed and unanimously adopted. A committee was appointed to carry out the resolutions; and Mr. Myers was appointed treasurer. On the motion of Mr. Canis, seconded by Mr. Reyes, thanks were voted to the chairman, and the meet- ing separated, after giving three cheers for the Queen, and three each for the army and navy, and for the chair- ; man, and Mr. Myers.

but connecting with it a practical impossibility. defect was pointed to the Principal ; he brought subject before the directors, and it was that in any such case the pupil from the Lower S t once arrang6 move it without being cal for any more than his original payment. About the EL time four scholarships, one of which is vac ant annua. were founded in connexion with the Upper School, each allowing to the holder of it about £5O a year during the term of his undergraduate course. Thus, to the pupil whose parents could only afford to pay four guineas a year, no fewer than four grades of education were thrown open— the three schools in the Collegiate Institution, and the Universities. In practice, none has yet passed through the whole four grades; but we believe that one or more pupils have passed through three of them. In 1846 it was suggested that one link was still wanting in the chain of educational promotion. If the various Church Schools of the town, and other National Schools, were connected with the Lower School of the Collegiate Institution, pupils of the humblest class would be put in the way of promotion ; and each school, instead of being the ultimate scene of education to a lad in the humblest ranks of life, would be only the first round of the ladder to all who had ability to ascend. This point would be gained by establishing scholarships in connexion with our several National Schools, so that the best boy in each would be promoted to the Lower School of the Collegiate Institution, to receive gratuitous education there for at least a year. If there were but one such prize at each, it would be vacant annually ; but there is no reason why there might not be two or more ; and even two or more schools might unite, and seleot the best boy from their joint numbers. Before the close of any pupil's term at the Lower School, his abilities would be thoroughly known ; and, if he possessed sufficient talent to obtain promotion, his future payments might easily be provided for by the friends of his school, by a special fund for the purpose, or by an arrangement making his scholarship tenable in such a case for another year. A little distinction in costume might also be invented, which would always mark out these young knights of the order of merit among their class-fellows. At this moment the principle is recognised, but to a very limited extent. Several of the best pupils of Christ Church schools have, from time to time, passed on to the Colle- giate Institution, and probably still do so prize is offered in connexion with those of St. Chrysostom and, since 1846, a sum of money has been invested in th( name of the trustees of St. Augustine's Schools, providing for such a prize in all time. This last is known as the Tattershall Exhibition. A simila The object might be accomplished in either of two ways. The Committee of a National School might set apart a sum for this purpose annually from their donations and children's pence ; or they might pay a single sum for the possession of the privilege in perpetuity. There can be no doubt that the arrangement would be beneficial in every way : to the several schools, to the Collegiate Insti- tution, and to the good cause of education in the town. We recommend the subject to the earnest attention of both clergy and laity ; and we have no doubt that the Com- mittee of the Collegiate Institution will be glad to meet proposals from School Committees in a kind and generous ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE OF TROOPS AT LIVERPOOL. On Friday, as had been previously intimated, the 54th regiment of infantry arrived in Liverpool from Lan- caster, to be shipped on board the Niagara steamer, for conveyance to Gibraltar, where they are to relieve the 13th, stationed in that fortress, which will be imme conveyed by the Niagara to the seat of war in the Crimea,. It is only a few weeks since the 54th landed in this country from Canada, and since that period they had been quar- tered in Glasgow. On Thursday morning they left that city, by the Caledonian Railway, for Lancaster, where they arrived about half-past four in the afternoon. On their arrival at their respective billets in Lancaster, each of the men received a small pecuniary gratuity, the result of a subscription originated by the Mayor and principal inha- bitants, their wives and children also coming in for a share of the bounty. At half-past eight in the morning of Friday, the men and officers left Lancaster by railway, and, under command of Lieutenant-Colonel Moore and Major Smith, arrived in the Lime-street station. On their arrival they were received by the Mayor, Colonel Derinzy, Captain Edwards, &c., who were in waiting at the station to receive them ; and a body of police, under Major Greig and Chief Superintendent Ride, kept an open space so as to allow the soldiers to parade. The regiment, consist- ing of eight companies, and numbering about eight hundred men, and one hundred and fifty women and children, with the usual complement of officers, was con- veyed in two immense special trains ; and on their arrival Colonel Moore, their commanding officer, formed them into companies, and, everything being prepared, the band struck up " Cheer boys, cheer ;" the word " march" was passed along the line, and they filed into Lime-street, where the crowd met them with cheer after cheer. They took the route of ' Parker-street, Church-street, Lord- street, and Castle-street, to the Exchange: The whole of the route was lined with crowds of people, order being preserved by police stationed at intervals. On their arrival on 'Change, they formed three sides of a square, with the band in the centre, which played " God save the Queen," and " Partant pour la Syrite," the troops pre- senting arms, and the people vociferously cheering. A quantity of warm spiced ale, supplied by Mr. Cutts, of Chapel-street, and provided by the gentlemen on 'Change, was handed round to the men. The officers partook of a dejguner in the Town-hall. All having sufficiently rested, they were again put in motion, passing along Castle- street, James's-street, to the Landing-stage. Here the steam-tenders Satellite and Jackal', with two lighters, were moored alongside, in waiting to convey them to the mail steam-ship Niagara (Captain Shannon). An immense concourse of people occupied every available spot where the embarkation could be seen, and on the appearance of the troops the cheers were deafening. Commander Bevis, R.N., Lieut. Lord, R.N., and Mr. Shand, received them, and they immediately embarked. As the steamers left the stage, the enthusiasm of the crowd knew no bounds, waving of hats, handkerchiefs, and everything by which they could express sympathy and approbation. The men seemed in the best spirits, heartily returning the cheering, and waving their shakoes on the tops of their bayonets, while their band played appropriate airs. ARTILLERY FOR THE CRIMEA.---011 Friday afternoon, a party, one hundred and twenty in number, and five officers, belonging to the Royal Artillery, arrived in Liverpool, by the London and Northwestern Railway, from Woolwich, and embarked on board the Niagara for the Crimea. The Niagara sailed on Saturday at one o'clock, afternoon. THE FIFTY-sixim.--On Friday, a detachment of the 56th, consisting of one hundred and fifty men and three officers, also arrived from Chatham, by the London and Northwestern Railway, en route to Dublin, for which city they sailed on Saturday afternoon. LORD PA.LitiERSTON has directed the prosecution of a Manchester bill-sticker, for posting a placard containing extracts from the war correspondence, tending to excite disgust at the war.

THE CHURCH AND THE STATE WE resume our notice of the Rev. W. F. TAYLOR'S valuable pamphlet, reiterating our hope that it will receive the careful consideration of every man, whether Churchman or Dissenter, who can appreciate the blessings of Christian instruction, and who deems an inquiry into the best means of imparting it to be worthy of attentive study. In the second part of his work, Mr. TAYLOR takes up the Anti-State Church theory, which he proceeds to discuss. He says, that the advocates of this theory, or the Volun- taries, hold that the functions of a State apply solely to the temporal well-being of the people, and State Laws apply only to offenders against the right of property and persons, to which he adds : _ _ But provided they keep their evil deeds to themselves, it would appear that they' ay do what they like with impunity—multiply beer-houses to increase the drunken- ness of the land—turn whole streets into houses of ill- fame, as is the case in Liverpool—and profane the Sabbath by open desecration. For if the Anti-State Church party really disapprove of these things, or think they call for state legislation, why not display the same activity in accomplishing so desirable an object as they do in their endeavours to put down that against which they profess to have conscientious objections—Church Rates ? Why do they, by silence, acquiesce in the one, whilst they spare no sacrifice, either of time or money, to put down the other ? Having further commented on this absurd inconsistency, he proceeds to argue on the reasons assumed by the Voluntaries for their peculiar views. The first of these is, that they deem it inconsistent with civil and religious liberty, holding that State influence is unlawful, and upon this he says : •But first we observe, that according to this view the religious character of our Constitution is at once over- thrown. At present, Christianity is part and parcel of the British Constitution, and settled at the glorious Revolution of 1688. Yea, we may go futher back, and say that the noble edifice of the Constitution had its foundations laid in the soil of the State Church principle —they are founded upon the Rock of the Church, the stately temple has been erected and matured, the growth of ages, by a firm adherence to this principle ; throughout successive centuries it has advanced from its first begin- nings, until it has attained to its present colossal magnitude. Reasoning, then, upon the consequences which would flow from the success of the Anti-State Church party, he continues,— Nor let it'be imagined that the Church alone would be overthrown ; the throne would quickly follow, and the same day which witnesses the disestablishment of the one, will witness the destruction of the other. Those men thus incur a fearful responsibility who are now busy labouring to sever the Church from the State. Not that in the long run the Church would have anything to fear, —she conquered the State, and forced it to a national recognition of her claims, when the State was hostile in ages past,—and what she did before she would do again. But meanwhile serious calamities would befall the country, throne and sceptre levelled in the dust, and the govern- ment placed in the hands of wicked and ungodly men ! and to avert these would we now raise the note of alarm. Of course, if the Anti-State-Church party have their views carried out, there could be no national recognition of the Sabbath day. The laws, which at present secure at least a certain measure of outward respect for the Lord's Day, and enable the people of God to worship Him in tranquillity, should all be repealed, as being a matter with which the State has no concern ; —it is religious; and to enact that the first day of the week be kept sacred is a preference for the Christian above the Jewish faith, which regards the seventh day rather as the Sabbath. All these laws which forbid traffic, close public-houses, shut up offices, suppress theatres, &c., &c., must be at once swept from the statute-book, as involving the princi- ple of State Religion, and attempting to force the people (as they express it) to be religious. I need hardly point out the melancholy results which would flow from such a view being adopted in the Legisla- ture. The beer-houses and public-houses open all day, even during the hours of Divine worship ; the theatres and casinos spreading forth their attractions at night ; public bands patrolling the streets; organs at every corner ; the shops all open, tailors, shoemakers butchers, and bakers. In a word, all public recognition of the Sabbath removed, every vestage of it would be soon obliterated from society; and as a consequence, vice and profanity, licentiousness, profligacy, and drunkenness, would abound, insomuch that we might reasonably expect some dread calamity and judgment would descend upon us, to consume us as in a moment; perhaps fire and brim- stone rained down upon us as on the guilty cities of the Plain. At all events, as the moral stench arising from the country would be intolerable, even to a God of infinite patience, he would allow things to take their own course, withdraw His restraining grace, give the nation up to the uncontrolled fury of its own hellish passions, and let loose the demon of civil war to riot in scenes of carnage and bloodshed, and an awful retribution would be experienced in the fearful scenes of the French Revolution, repeated in the once favoured land of Britain. We have given the above extract at greater length, from the vivid pictitre which the author draws of the calamities which may reasonably be inferred as the result of a move- ment which many misguided men have taken up in ignorance of its tendency. He, however, pursues the subject further, commenting on the authority of the New Testament, and the bearing of those particular passages which the Voluntaries have relied upon in defence of their opinions. The next point, which he takes up, is the objection that a nation should not, as such, establish a religion, or render any support to the cause of the Gos- pel. Upon this he remarks : Nations, however, as such, in their corporate capacity, are judged on earth; rewarded or punished, as the case may be, with national prosperity or happiness, or with national disaster and overthrow. This is a truth of which we have many instances, not only in sacred history but profane, as well ancient as modern When David numbered the people, the nation suffered the awful visitation of a fearful pestilence. When Josiah, Hezekiah, or Jehoshaphat, sought the Lord, and honoured His word and worship, temporal prosperity flowed in upon them in abundance. This conclusion is justified by the history of modern Europe, by the history of our own nation. Spain, once the first of nations, is now never mentioned in the affairs of Europe. England,: once a remote, unknown, insignifi- cant Island, now takes the lead in the affairs of Europe— the World. England, after a lengthened struggle against Antichrist, succeeded in vindicating the cause of Gospel truth and Gospel liberty. She received the Lamp of Light with gratitude to the Author of all good, and she enshrined it in the golden candlestick of the National Church. But more particularly—look at the several reigns of the English monarchs, and we find that according as they favoured Catholic and Apostolic truth, or Papal and Anti- christian error, the nation rose or fell in influence, pros- perity, and power. Thus the reigns of Mary, of bloody memory, Charles 1., Charles 11., and James 11., were distinguished for national disaster and misery ; the nation was never free from either civil war, revolution, dissension, or poverty. Whilst the reigns of Edward the pious, Elizabeth the good, William 111. of immortal memory, Anne, the Georges, especially the third of that name, were distinguished by national greatness, prestige, power, wealth, happiness ; yea, even the usurpation of Cromwell, as we have seen, was thaws characterized. Wherefore the difference ? Answer : the monarchs in the first list were either pro-papist or thoroirghly papistical— ' those of the second were champions of Protestant and Scriptural truth. In the second place he refers to the writings and opinions of the earliest and ablest dissenters, who, so far from being inimical to the Church, desired to see it in the greatest possible efficiency. To the second objection, that a person should not be taxed to support what he does wt want, and that, consequently, a dissenter should not be called upon to support the Church, he replies:— Why should I pay for the support of the British Museum or National Gallery, neither of which I may ever enter ? Why to support National Schools., to which I shall never send any of my children? Why magistrates aad judges, and courts of law, when I never have gone to lsw and never intend? Why for the erection of a bridge in some distant part of the country, which I may never cross ; or a road, on which I may never walk ? All these things are for the publie good, or are con- ceived so to be, and therefore all are bound to contribute towards their maintenance. The community must be legislated for as a whole, for the general advantage ; and each must bear his contingent of the public expense, for if not directly, at least indirectly, all reeeive advantage from them.

THE BATTLE OF INKERMAN, THE details which have been received, and which we have given in another page, of the great battle which was fought, near the ruins of Inkerman, on the sth of November, will be read with the most intense interest by every one ; for who is it that claims the paternity of the British soil, and does not partake of the enthusiasm which such an event is sure to inspire P The military history of our country is a record of victories won under every disadvantage of climate, situation, and condition, and against almost any amount of odds ; so that a defeat of even a temporary character is a rare cir- cumstance, more than compensated by some subse- quent triumph ; and the consequence has been, that England has acquired a prestige for invincibility in war which has given her a moral supremacy over all Heathendom, and justified her claim to the proud position of being the mistress of the globe, and the arbitress of the destiny of nations. It was left, however, to our own day, and to the handful of troops which Ministerial parsimony, if not a worse motive, had allowed to remain so long without rein- forcements in the Crimea, to achieve a triumph which, for consummate bravery, chivalrous daring, and unflinching courage, throws all former battles completely into the shade, and proves to the world that, after forty years' inactivity, the military spirit of England is more capable than ever of defying a world-in-arms when the cause is that of justice. So long as the records are preserved of gallant deeds, and well-fought fields, the battle of Inker- man will stand out in bold relief as the one crowning victory which requires another SHA.K- PERE to do justice to it, and which will excite our future heroes to emulation. The battle of Water- loo has given a name to many of our towns, bridges squares, streets, and terraces, and can never be for- gotten; but the name of Inkerman, despite its want of euphony, will be quoted in all succeeding ages as an instance of victory achieved under greater disad- vantages, and more indebted to individual heroism than any yet recorded. SHAKSPERE said of the battle of Agincourt : " He, that outlives this day, and comes safe home, Will stand a tip-toe when this day is named !" " And gentlemen in England, now a-bed, Will think themselves accursed, they were not here And hold their manhoods cheaTi., while any speaks That fought with us upon St. Crispin's day." But to what " brightest heaven of invention" must his muse have ascended to sing the imperishable renown of the heroes who fought at Inkerman ? Fortunately for us, and fortunately for the liberties of Europe, the heroes are ours, and it is only the poet who is wanted to adequately sing their praises. So that we must be content with the plain unvar- nished tale which LORD RAGLAN, with as much modesty as valour, so well delivers. ft appears that, by the 3rd of November, it had been observed that the Russians were considerably increasing their forces, having evidently received large reinforcements from the North, and on the next day (Saturday) this was still more apparent, and the presence of the two GRAND DUKES had also been observed in the Russian army. Lord RAGLAN accordingly took every precaution within his power to strengthen his position, as it was plain that the Russians in great force contemplated an attack on the English army, which, it seems, only numbered about eight thousand men. The expectation was not delusive, for on the next day (Sunday),—the memorable sth of November, and now rendered more memorable than ever,—before it. was daylight, and in the midst of a thick mist, the Russians came thundering on in dense masses of infantry and cavalry, aided by powerful batteries of heavy artillery, and in all the confidence of victory, from their immense superiority of numbers, which were supposed to amount to about 60,000. The shock must have been tremendous, and, under ordinary circumstances, sufficient to annihilate the small numerical force opposed to it ; but British valour compensated for poverty in numbers, and stood the shock like lions. A small party of French soon came up to our assistance, and then, according to the language of The Times correspondent, com- menced the bloodiest struggle ever witnessed since war cursed the earth. As the day advanced, and the Russian columns were beaten back, fresh masses came to the encounter, to meet the un- flinching resistance of the English, aided by the French. For many hours the victory was doubtful, as the tide of battle swayed hither and thither, the Russians obtaining a great advantage by the murderous fire of their immensely-powerful artil- lery ; and it was not until the afternoon that British supremacy was proudly asserted, and the Russian army was compelled to retreat before the Allied Forces, who were not one-fourth their numbers, the Russians losing more in killed and wounded than the whole force opposed to them. So signal a victory, so triumphant an issue to a contest in which the odds were so frightfully against the victors, was not achieved without a great sacrifice of some of the best and bravest of our soldiers. We have to lament the loss of Lieut.- general the Honourable Sir GEORCM CATHCART,

GENERAL WINTER.—There was a heavy berland and Westmoreland hill' A MALE SPECULEN of the s was taken a few da; Riding of Yorkshire. THE JOHANNE CHET STOPHE, a Russian barque, captured in Grimsby Dock, in June last, has been sold by public auction for £3,100, to a gentleman from Shields. DIE OMNIBUS AND CAB DRIVERS of Glasgow have " combined to do no work on Sunday, except in cases where life or property is at stake." A MOORISH BARQUE arrived at Greenock recently, with a cargo of grain from Alexandria. It is said to be the first vessel of that nation which has anchored in the Clyde. A DIABOLICAL ATTEMPT was made at Sheffield, one morning last week, to blow up a grinding wheel belonging to Mr. W. Ward ; but the plot was discovered in time to prevent the intended result. AT SHREWSBURY RACES, the cup, which according to custom was placed in front of the grand-stand until it had been won, was carried off by some unknown individual, and has not been heard of since. AT CHELTENHAM, an old man has committed suicide in order that his remains may be placed in the same church- yard where his wife was buried, and which is to be closed this month. AT a meeting of the Victoria London Dock Company, held on Tuesday, it was unanimously agreed to lease the undertaking to Messrs. Peto, Betts, and Brassey, for a term of twenty-one years, from the Ist January next. AN ALARMING COLLISION took place, on Wednesday evening, near the Kegworth Station, on the Midland Railway, between a passenger train and some cattle trucks. Several passengers received contusions, but no lives were lost. THE OMNIBUS PROPRIETORS of the metropolis, who, according to their own account, have been losing money since 1851, had an interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on Tuesday, praying for a reduction of the duty. The interview ended in the usual manner, the Chancellor promising to " consider the matter." A BRUTAL FELLOW, named Charles Leake, a coal miner, was charged at the Wakefield petty sessions, on Monday, with having wantonly tortured a cat, by biting off its nose. He was ordered to be kept to hard labour for a mont—. MR. ALEXANDER GREENWOOD, late managing-clerk at a brewery in Spitalfields, London, lost his life on Saturday, in consequence of administering to himself a quantity of chloric ether, a preparation which he had been in the habit of taking as a sedative when suffering from spasms and palpitation of the heart. THE official Gazette in Wurtemberg published at the commencement of this month some account of the plans now rife in that country for emigration to Palestine. A " Society for the bringing together of God's people in Jerusalem" has constituted itself, and amongst other pro- ceedings has prepared a petition to the Bund of Frankfort. THE HIGH MA.RSTIA.L of the Court of Admiralty made public proclamation on Monday, on the Royal Exchange, London, that another Russian vessel, called the Rapide, of which Brockelman was the late master, had been seized in the port of Liverpool under simulated papers, and that the same would be condemned as a crown droit within 20 days, and sold for the benefit of her captors. THE EARL OF MORTON (a ,Scotch paper tells us), the last of the three shutters-up of the public way between Burntisland and Aberdour, has formally given up the con- test, and the public right, so long battled for in and out of the courts, is declared and secured. The question has been under litigation, in one form or another, since 1846. PETER JOHN HENRY, an auctioneer, who had been convicted by two justices of selling by auction out of the district to which he was licensed, applied to the Queen's Bench on Saturday to have the conviction quashed; they had fined him £lO, whereas they should have fined him £5O. It appeared that the justices had looked-up the wrong act, and the conviction was quashed. MELANCHOLY DEATH.—In a fire which occurred on the premises of Messrs. Arnold and Co., Red Lion- square, London, on Sunday week, Emma, wife of Mr. John St. Clare Jones, who tenanted the second floor, was burnt to death, with one of her children. The remains were found in the ruins on Monday, and presented a shocking spectacle. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—On Monday evening, last week, Mr. Henry Innes, aged 20, the son of a gentleman re- siding in the Hampstead-road, on arriving at the Hornsey station, from King's-cross, got out of the train while it was in motion, when he suddenly fell between the train and the platform, and was awfully mutilated before the carriages could be brought to a stand. Death was instantaneous. THE FIELD TELEGRAPII.—Two waggons, each con- taining twelve miles of telegraphic wire covered with gutta percha, and with ploughs and the necessary arrange- ments for laying down the wires, were put on board the Prince, screw-steam transport ship, at Woolwich, previous to her proceeding to Greenhithe to embark the 46th Regiment. As letters announcing the arrival of the Prince at Constantinople have been received, the instruments must have been at the disposal of Lord Raglan's staff for the last fortnight. VAN DIEMEN'S LAND COMPANY.—A meeting of this company was held on Thursday, Mr. Cattley in the chair, to receive the report of Mr. Gibson on the company's affairs. It appeared from this that the aggregate value of the lands, houses, &c., was £200,000, and that the assets in London and in the colony were about £9,500. He recommended the directors to sell the land by auction at certain periods, and to lease others for ten to fourteen years, with right of pre•emption ; also to improve the harbour of Stanley, and to facilitate steam conveyance betwixt Launceston, Melbourne, and Stanley. The report was adopted. THE MINISTRY.—We are assured that the differences which originally existed in the Cabinet as to the attitude which this country should assume on the first indications of war with Russia, have again broken out ; and that now, as formerly, Lord Palmerston, Lord John Russell, and the Marquis of Lansdowne, range themselves on the side of a greater promptitude and energy of action ; while Lord Aberdeen, Mr. Gladstone, and Mr. Sidney Herbert, and one or two others, are still in favour of a cautious and conciliatory policy.—Morning Advertiser. A Cußlous PENNY.—A person belonging to Grange- mouth, in getting change for a shilling, was struck with something uncommon in one of the pence. On examina- tion it was found that the obverse and reverse of the coin was divided, but unitedsfearatewshniticthnlhoge saoewldfida,nshea enesadnevreyelaovei also penny Bn.d yievi Tinodigfiei dos Gp;eeel n e d , a halfpenny was enclosed, which also was divided ; being rate bo pe ie nngel dvo, penny ynf aeirds h theai gi sa lawmf oaa rub god III; date, 1799. NATIONALITY.—In the production of the military drama of the battle of the Alma, at Bristol theatre, the ma- nager experienced the greatest difficulty in inducing par- ties to personate Russians. The soldiers employed in the spectacle would not listen to the proposition, and the ordinary "supers" either flatly refused, or begged to be allowed in preference to fill the humblest position in the allied army. Mr. Chute explained to them, with the best eloquence he could use, that they were but Russians in "jest," and some of them at length yielded to his impor- tunities, but he wholly failed in prevailing upon the full number on which he reckoned. ANCIENT MSS.—A few days ago the workmen engaged in the demolition of the tower of St. Jean de Latran, opposite the College de France, found a number of parch- ments, which M. Van Cleemputte, the architect, carefully collected and deposited at the Hotel de Ville. They were found *belong generally to the 13th and 14th centuries, but there is one receipt of the 16th century. It is thought that other manuscripts may be discovered, and orders have been given that they are to be carefully preserved, and after being classified at the Hotel de Ville, their con- tents are to be communicated to the Minister of Public Instruction. THE FREEHOLD FRANCHISE.—In the case of Astbury v. Henderson, in the Court of Common Pleas, on the 24th inst., the Conservative Land Society, which have fought for the principle of the franchise being extended to all persons who have purchased plots of land, proved to be of the value of 40s. per annum, have gained the unanimous decision of the four judges (the Lord Chief Justice Jervis, and Justices Maule, Williams, and Crowder), in their ap- peal against the decision of the revising barrister at the Putney Estate, who refused the right of voting to seventeen allottees on the ground that the land was not let, and did not yield 40s. per yeal.. This important judgment decided that a plot of freehold land may be had of the value of 40s. per year, and thus confer the county franchise, notwith- standing that this land may not be actually let on building lease or otherwise, and is for the time unoccupied and wholly unproductive. ENGLISH GROWN Sruic.—Many persons in England, as a matter of entertainment, have kept a few silkworms, which have produced cocoons. No further result by them has been contemplated ; but we have heard of a gentle- man (Mr. Hutton) in Cornwall, who has followed out the growing of silk so successfully as an amateur, that he has at length arrived at the conviction that silk-growing might be profitably carried on in this Country. We have seen some hundreds of cocoons in an establishment near Manchester. The gentleman calculates that an acre of mulberry-trees would suffice to produce 601 b. weight of silk, and that the ground would yield a profit to the far- mer of about £3O an acre. Dr. (now Sir John) Bowring, when in Manchester, said that the mulberry-tree was in- digenous to every climate, and that nature had so favoured us as to give a species suited to every country.—Man- chester Examiner. GRowni OF RUSSIA.—In 1722, the Czar, then Peter the Great, only swayed 14 millions of boyards and serfs ; but Russia was even then beginning to learn the art of robbing her neighbours--"obtaining material guarantees," the wise call it ; and, 40 years later, in 1762, she had "conveyed" to herself six millions more subjects, making 20 millions ; by 1795, Catharine, " the Semiramis (and Messalina) of .the North," had raised the number of 36 millions; in 1818 it was 45,500,000; and, in 18284, under the virtuous Alexander, it had grown to millions. Nicholas has not been less lucky than his predecessors, and, as mentioned above, the 27 years of his great and gloriods reign has added 16 millions to the muster-roll of his devoted subjects, or one-seventh more than the whole population over whom Peter the Shipwright exercised his iron rule. Whence all these Millions ? Let Poland, Fin- land, the Crimea, Bessarabia, Cherson, the Caucasus, Armenia, answer.

The Rev. W. F. TAYLOU, on rising to propose the second resolution, was received with enthusiastic applause, the Kentish fire, and loud cheers. On these subsiding, the reverend gentleman proceeded to move the second resolution, which in general terms may be represented as pledging the meeting to a conviction that the principles of Romanism are antagonist to religious truth and the free- dom of thought —is at variance with civil liberty, and that it is, consequently, the duty of every rightly consti- tuted Christian to oppose those principles, and to do the best that is in their power to disseminate among Romanists a knowledge of that Scriptural truth which will indeed make them free. He remarked that the resolution set out by declaring that the principles of Romanism are opposed to civilization, because civilization is based on intellectual culture, which the Church of Rome in every age has determinedly opposed. Wherever she had had the power or the opportunity, she had put her chains around the intellect, and used her most strenuous en- deavours to nullify every principle of scriptural Christian faith, and substitute for them a counterfeit Christianity, by her priests. Well knowing that every exercise of intellect is a step, fatal to her teaching and de- structive of her influence, she had, by the guises of her institutions, as well as by her law and enactments, lent all her efforts to crush it. Inquiry of every kind had been restrained and circumscribed ; and by the tenth rule of her directory no book is allowed to be printed, to be lent, or to be read until it has been first examined by the bishop of the diocese, or by the inquisitor of Heretical doctrines. How was it that she was thus careful to stifle inquiry ? And why was she so fearful of her children acquiring knowledge ? It was because she knew well that information would be fatal to her power. Protestants, instead of feeling such a dread of knowledge, court inquiry, and urge upon their people the necessity of carefully examining the Scriptures for themselves, and solicit them to use their knowledge of the Scriptures as a rule for their guidance in all things. The resolution declared that Romanism was opposed to social progress ; and in illustration he remarked that the biotin 9f Christianity fully bore out the NDARD, AND GENERAL COMMER( al cloud which dart here to rema s and .eat :Anticlirist of religions nil_ with I ileciiial meat on.

After alluding to the well-known instance of the threatened punishment of Roger Bacon, and the constrained recantation of Gallileo, he maintained that '..no true liberty of action or thought was ever permitted where the power of Rome had been dominant. In illustration of this, he read an extract from the letter of a poor woman in Liverpool, who , m opening the proceedings, said they having been married to a Romanist husband, while the in an important work; they were embarked poor man was on his deathbed, the priest having been sent r —in an anti-Russian war, and in an anti- for refused to administer the sacrament to the dying man, I he would endeavour to show them some unless his Protestant wife would consent to take their ;e between them.

T. B. HORSFALL, Esq., M.P., on rising to second the resolution, was received with loud and vociferous cheering. He said that, had it been other than a meeting of the working men of Liverpool, and for another object than the Protestant Reformation, he should not have been there, as he laboured under a severe cold. We lived in stirring times, and few questions were of more importance than that upon which they were assembled. Remarks had been made about political and religious questions, but it was impossible to treat of opposition to Rome without going into a political subject. He then referred to the question of Nunneries, which was brought before the House of Commons last Session. It might be asked, was it not carried when there was a majority in its favour ? It was virtually defeated by interminable discussions, which were wasting the time of the House, and the mover withdrew it, to bring it forward again another Session in a shape which he trusted would render it successful in spite of any opposition that might be brought against it. Another question before the House was the payment of Romanist chaplains on which the ministers were defeated. Lord Palmerston had said that he was as good a Pro- testant as Mr. Spooner, but he (Mr. Horsfall) had told him that without pretending to decide, he saw Lord Palmerston recommending them to pay for the teaching of what he knew to be wrong, whilst Mr. Spooner refused to pay for teaching more than what he believed to be right. There was the Jews Bill, which was rejected, he believed, because many were of opinion that it would streegthen the hands of the Romanists, and he would tell them that he believed there was a strong and increasing Protestant feeling in the House of Commons. The ques- tion to be brought before Parliamont next session was the grant to Maonooth College. The Ministers who carried it had been told that it would prove a thorn in the side of the Government, .and they ought to join with vigorous determination to extract this thorn. Before sitting down, they must not be surprised if he proposed Lord John Russell as a member of their society—aye, even their pre- sident, for he could prove, by his celebrated letter to the Bishop of Durham, that he was as zealous a Protestant as any of them. Mr. Horsfall then read an extract from the letter, and, amidst much laughter, said if Lord Bohn Russell would prove his words, he should be most happy to propose him as one of their society. Before admitting him to this honour, however, he would like his lordship to go a little further. The people would not be satisfied by a mere admiration and reverence for the Protestant insti- tutions of the country ; and he trusted that they would likewise show something more than mere contempt for the doctrines and superstitions of Rome. Let the people of Liverpool, and of the country, pour in petitions to Par- liament, and in these petitions plainly express their wishes, and, by so doing, they would get rid of Maynooth and the other grievances of which they complained. (Mr. Hors- fall down amidst loud and long-continued cheering.) The resolution was carried with acclamation.

LAUNCH OF TUB VITTORIA EMIKANUELO.-011 Tues- day, a fine screw-steamer, the second of a fleet of ten ships intended for the Transatlantic Steam-packet Com- pany of Genoa, was launched from Messrs.

This enterprising company has been formed under most favourable auspices, his Ma- jesty Victor Emmanuel, the King of Sardinia, himself taking a deep interest in the prosperity of the undertak- ing, and being in fact one of the largest of the share- holders. The company propose to establish steam and direct postal communication between Genoa, Marseilles, Barcelona, Gibraltar, and the principal ports in the south of Spain, and with the continents of North and South America. MURDER or A GIRL Er HER FATHER.—A few days since, a young woman, named Sarah Ann Voss, was mur- dered by her father, a labourer in the employment of the London and North-Western Railway Company. The wretched man, who, there is reason to believe, committed the dreadful crime under the influence of insanity, imme- diately absconded, and was not captured for several days. A verdict of " Wilful Murder" was pronounced against him by .a coroner's jury, and he has been committed for trial. _ _ REINFORCEMENTS. —lt has been determined by the military authorities to add three subalterns to the strength of each of the infantry regiments now serving in, or about to be sent to, the Crimea. The present number of subal. terns is, exclusive of the adjutant, fourteen lieutenants and eight ensigns. Under the new rule there will be fifteen lieutenants and ten ensigns. It is also intended to increase the medical strength of the of an assistant-surgeon to each regiment. The increk lately made to the number of men in each corps render obvious the necessity of this step. We believe that i, is intended to increase the force in the Crimea by sending up some additional regiments now serving in the Mediter ranean garrisons.

MEETING OF PARLIAMENT. A Privy Council was held yesterday afternoon at Windsor Castle, chiefly for the purpose of ordering the meeting of Parliament on the 12th of neat month for the despatch of business.

Reinforcements for the Crimea arrived daily at Constantinople. At Toulon, the division Dulac had commenced embarking. The fol- lowing vessels had already left : the Milan, Vengeance, Chandernager. Galignani's Messenger says "We think that we may announce that yesterday the French government resolved to send two divisions into the Danubian Principalities, in addition to the two French divisions now embarking at Toulon for the Crimea." The Invalide Russe announces officially the Russian loss on the sth of Nov. to be 42 officers and 2,969 men killed, and 206 officers and 5,791 men wounded, giving the total of 9,008 killed and wounded.

BURNING OF THE MORAYSHIRE.—;The following ex- 2 al tract of a letter gives some details of the loss, by fire, of ng the barque Morayshire, Brodie, from Bombay to Liver- -. 22 pool:—" The fire broke out in the mainhold eight days i 2, after the ship sailed from Bombay. Her cargo consisted chiefly of Indian produce—a considerable portion of which was Bombay cotton. There appears to be little doubt that We part of the latter was stowed away in wet weather ; and Air to this cause, added to a large quantity of the coir yarn, Aar used as broken stowage, being sent on board in a moist us • sl - state, her spontaneous combustion may be ascribed. We understated that, on the eighth day after she left Bombay, air ir' itl smoke was observed issuing into the cuddy, about midday, 4C, It when an instant search was made for the cause. After Ai* 81 searching over the ship unsuccessfully, one of the seamen ie iv went into the chain locker, and his immediate exit from cl the overpowering heat showed that the centre of the cargo .i,^ was in a state of ignition. All hopes of getting the fire LI t under being cut off, the ship was put before the wind, every hatchway battoned down to exclude the air, and 1 ss every sail set to run for the nearest land, but within three is hours the flames burst forth through the deck, compelling the captain to order the long-boat to be lowered, and, having been supplied with water, the crew took to their solitary refuge, and the ship was abandoned. A quarter • • of an hour after her masts went by the board, and her • hull became a mass of flame. She soon disappeared. After three days' suffering, the long-boat reached Colombo, ill where the crew all safely landed." CASHMERIAN ROSE OlL.—The essential oil, or c Ist- .. brated attar of roses, made in Cashmere, is considered I superior to any other ; a circumstance not surprising, as, L according to Hugel, the flower is here produced of sur- n passing fragrance as well as beauty. A large quantity of rose water twice distilled is allowed to run off into an open vessel, placed over night in a cool running stream, t, and in the morning the oil is found floating on the surface in minute specks, which are taken off very carefully by --ass of a blade of sword-lily. When cool it is of a dark a `,ter, and as hard as resin, not becoming liquid at o ~cure about that of boiling water. Between 500 and 600 pounds weight of leaves is required to produce I one ounce of the tatar.—lndian Encyclopeedia. i ENGLISH LOVE OF SPORT.—The love of hunting and If field-sports is a powerful and almost indestructible im- i pulse in the English character. We can see it displayed E in every phase of society, from the regal drawing-room to I, the low tippling stews of Field-lane and the Mint.

Nay, speaking of siege operations, it would often be practically safe to take the word metre as synonymous with yard. For when, for instance, a parallele is re- ported to be at the distance of 200 metres from the town, such a figure is generally given at a rough approximation, which may be often wide of the truth by more than one- tenth, either in excess or in defect. A parallele is nothing but a ditch made by the besiegers, in a direction parallel to the walls of the town, for the purpose of having there a shelter from the missiles of the besieged, and of firing against them from its parapet in comparative safety. Usually three paralleles are successively dug, the first at the greatest, and the third at the shortest distance from the town.

than two months past, and described by they will take less interest in the at cuts the body in half, and destroys all The London theatrical season is setting in with a threatened flow of classical solemnities. A Greek tragedy, translated by Mr. SPICER, is announced as " imminent" at the St. James's ; while Drury-lane, it is said, will not be content with anything less sombre or less antique than a tragic drama of Babylonian type. At the Adelphi, a farce, by MARK LEMON, entitled "The Railway Belle," has been produced with good effect and much success. Another new piece, entitled "The Balance of Comfort," from the pen of Mr. BAYLE BERNARD, was produced at the Haymarket, on Thursday night. It was well, acted, and promises to become an ephemeral celebrity, at the Ivery least. THE CHURCH AND THE STATE WE res me our not ce of the Rev. W. F. TAYLOR'S valuable pamphlet, reiterating our hope that it will receive the careful consideration of every man, whether Churchman or Dissenter, who can appreciate the blessings of Christian instruction, and who deems an inquiry into the best means of imparting it to be worthy of attentive study. In the second part of his work, Mr. TAYLOR takes up the Anti-State Church theory, which he proceeds to discuss. He says, that the advocates of this theory, or the Volun- - . taries, hold that the functions of a State apply solely to the temporal well-being of the people, and State Laws - . apply only to offenders against the right of property and persons, to which be adds : But provided they keep their evil deeds to themselves, it would appear that they may do what they like with impunity—multiply beer-houses to increase the drunken- ness of the land—turn whole streets into houses of ill- fame, as is the case in Liverpool—and profane the Sabbath by open desecration. For if the Anti-State Church party really disapprove of these things, or think they call for state legislation, why not display the same activity in accomplishing so desirable an object as they do in their endeavours to put down that against which they profess to have conscientious objections—Church Rates ? Why do they, by silence, acquiesce in the one, whilst they spare no sacrifice, either of time or money, to put down the other ? Having further commented on this absurd inconsistency, he proceeds to argue on the reasons assumed by the Voluntaries for their peculiar views. The first of these is, • _ that they deem it inconsistent with civil and religious liberty, liolding, that State influence is unlawful, and upon this he says : . - But first •ve observe, that according to this view the religious character of our Constitution is at once over- thrown. At present, Christianity is part and parcel of the British Constitution, and settled at the glorious Revolution of 1688.. Yea, we may go futher back, and say that the noble edifice of the Constitution had its foundations laid in the soil of the State Church principle —they are founded upon the Rock of the Church, the stately temple has been erected and matured, the growth of ages, by a firm adherence to this principle ; throughout successive centuries it has advanced from its first begin- nings, until it has attained to its present colossal magnitude. Reasoning, then, upon the consequences which would flow from the success of the Anti-State Church party, he continues,— Nor let it be imagined that the Church alone would be overthrown ; the throne would quickly follow, and the same day which witnesses the disestablishment of the one, will witness the destruction of the other. Those men thus incur a fearful responsibility who are now busy labouring to sever the Church from the State. Not that in the long run the Church would have anything to fear, —she conquered the State, and forced it to a national recognition of her claims, when the State was hostile in ages pact,—and what she did before she would do again. But meanwhile serious calamities would befall the country, throne and sceptre levelled in the dust, and the govern- ment placed in the hands of wicked and ungodly men ! and to avert these would we now raise the note of alarm. Of course, if the Anti-State-Church party have their views carried out, there could be no national recognition of the Sabbath day. The laws, which at present secure at least a certain measure of outward respect for the Lord's Day, and enable the people of God to worship Him in tranquillity, should all be repealed, as being a matter with which the State has no concern ;—it is religious ; and to enact that the first day of the week be kept sacred is a preference for the Christian above the Jewish faith, which regards the seventh day rather as the Sabbath. All these laws which forbid traffic, close public-houses, shut up offices, suppress theatres, &c., &c., must be at once swept from the statute-book, as involving the princi- ple of State Religion, and attempting to force the people (as they express it) to be religious. I need hardly point out the melancholy results which would flow from such a view being adopted in the Legisla- ture. The beer-houses and public-houses open all day, even during the hours of Divine worship ; the theatres and casinos spreading forth their attractions at night ; public bands patrolling the streets; organs at every corner ; the shops all open, tailors, shoemakers, butchers, and bakers. In a word, all public recognition of the Sabbath removed, every vestage of it would be soon obliterated from society ; and as a consequence, vice and profanity, licentiousness, profligacy, and drunkenness, would abound, insomuch that we might reasonably expect some dread calamity and judgment would descend upon us, to consume us as in a moment; perhaps fire and brim- stone rained down upon us as on the guilty cities of the Plain. At all events, as the moral stench arising from the country would be intolerable, even to a God of infinite patience, he would allow things to take their own course, withdraw His restraining grace, give the nation up_to the uncontrolled fury of its own hellish passions, and let loose the demon of civil war to riot in scenes of carnage and bloodshed, and an awful retribution would be experienced in the fearful scenes of the French Revolution, repeated in the once favoured land of Britain. We have given the above extract at greater length, from the vivid picture which the author draws of the calamities which may reasonably be inferred as the result of a move- ment which many misguided men have taken up in ignorance of its tendency. He, however, pursues the subject further, commenting on the authority of the New Testament, and the bearing of those particular passages which the Voluntaries have relied upon in defence of their opinions. The next point, which he takes up, is the objection that a nation should not, as such, establish a religion, or render any support to the cause of the Gos- pel. Upon this he remarks : Nations, however, as such, in their corporate capacity, are judged on earth; rewarded or punished, as the case may be, with national prosperity or happiness, or with national disaster and overthrow. This is a truth of which we have many instances, not only in sacred history but profane, as well ancient as modern. When David numbered the people, the nation suffered the awful visitation of a fearful pestilence. When Josiah, Hezekiah, or Jehoshaphat, sought the Lord, and honoured His word and worship, temporal prosperity flowed in upon them in abundance. This conclusion is justified by the history of modern Europe, by the history of our own nation. Spain, once the first of nations, is now never mentioned in the affairs of Europe. England, once a remote, unknown, insignifi- cant Island, now takes the lead in the affairs of Europe— the World. England, after a lengthened struggle against Antichrist, succeeded in vindicating the cause of Gospel truth and Gospel liberty. She received the Lamp of Light with gratitude to the Author of all good, and she enshrined it in the golden candlestick of the National Church. But more particularly—look at the several reigns of the English monarchs, and we find that according as they favoured Catholic and Apostolic truth, or Papal and Anti- ehristian error, the nation rose or fell in influence, pros- perity, and power. Thus the reigns of Mary, of bloody memory, Charles 1., Charles 11., and James 11., were distinguished for national disaster and misery ; the nation was never free from either civil war, revolution, dissension, or poverty. Whilst the reigns of Edward the pious, Elizabeth the good, William 111. of immortal memory, Anne, the Georges, especially the third of that name, were distinguished by national greatness, prestige, power, wealth, happiness ; yea, even the usurpation of Cromwell, as we have seen, was thus characterized. Wherefore the difference? Answer : the monarchs in the first list were either pro-papist or thoroughly papistical— those of the second were champions of Protestant and Scriptural truth. In the second place he refers to the writings and opinions of the earliest and ablest dissenters, who, so far from being inimical to the Church, desired to see it in the greatest possible efficiency. To the second objection, that a person should not be taxed to support what he does not want, and that, consequently, a dissenter should not be called upon to support the Church, he replies : Why should I pay for the support of the British Museum or National Gallery, neither of which I may ever enter? Why to support National Schools, to which I shall never send any of my children? Why magistrates and judges, and courts of law, when I never have gone to law and never intend? Why for the erection of a bridge in some distant part of the country, which I may never cross ; or a road, on which I may never walk ? All these things are for the public good, or are con- ceived so to be, and therefore ail are bound to contribute towards their maintenance. The community must be legislated for as 2. whole, for the general advantage ; and each must bear his contingent of the public expense, for if not directly, at least indirectly, all receive advantage from them.
