Iteligians MHlipurt. —.»— )!I the 3rd instant, three sermons were preached at Eoenezer chapel, on behalf of the Sunday-school in con- nexion with that place of worship, by the Rev. J. Jones, late of Llangollen. OIUJINATIOX SERVICES. On the 29th ult., the Rev. Caleb Onion was publicly recognised as the pastor of the congregation assembling for worship at the Plough Independent chapel, Brecon. The services were commenced on the previous even- ing, when sermons were preached by the Rev. John Williams, Bridgend, and ..the Rev. Mr. Evans, Llanwrthwl. At ten c'dok on Tuesday morning, the Rev. Edward Davies, M.A., 'C.ast.ieal Tutor of Brecon Independent College, introduced with prayer, and the Rev. Griffith Griffiths, of Newport, delivered the introductory discourse. The Rev. Henry Grif- fiths, Theological Tutor of the Independent College, then put the questions to the minister elect; after which the It ev. Caleb Morris, of London, offered the ordination prayer, and the Rev. John Evans, of Hebron, Pembrokeshire, delivered the charge. In the afternoon the Rev. Caleb Morris introduced, and the Rev. $. Williams, of Llanwrtyd, preached to the church. In the^eveiiing sermons were delivered by the Rev. J. Stephens, of B^ychgoed, and the Rev. John Evans, of Hebron. The audi- ences, on .each occasion, were very large and the various charges and .sermons of the most impressive character. RHYMNEX.—On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, the 29th, .30th, and 31st of May, the Calvinistic Methodists of South Wales held their quarterly assoeiation in this place, a:id it may be observed that from the preparations made by all the religious denominations, it was difficult to say to which de- nomination of Christians the association belonged. Several conference meetings were held, when the utmost unanimity prevailed on all matters brought before the delegates, and all the resolutions submitted afterwards to the association were adopted unanimously. Powerful sermons were delivered by the Rev. Messrs. Hugh Jones, of Anglesea, R. Lumley, of fjwanse t, W. Griffiths, of Gower, Owen Thomas, of Newtown, David Charles, B.A., Principal of Trevecca College, J. Phillips, of Hereford, W. Morris, of St. David's, John Jones, of Lam- peter, David Howell, of Swansea, and J. Walters, of Ystrad- gvnlais. On Wednesday evening sermons were delivered by sciiie of the above and others in all the chapels, to crowded congregations. We would be guilty of a great dereliction of duty, were we not to state that the hospitality of the Rhymney folk i was above all praise, and to the Calvinistic Methodists throughout the principality we beg to say, do the same to the Baptists, Independents, Wesleyans, and the Church, when an opportunity offers. PoxTYmoL.—On Sunday, the 27tli ult., the anniversary ser- j Vires were held in the Ebenezer chapel, when the Rev. Messrs. Ellis Hughes, of Penymain, Herbert Daniel, of Sardis, Ponty- pool, Evan Rowlands, the minister of the place, and others participated in the performance of the duties of the day. Col- lections were also made in aid of the funds at the close of each service, and on the following Monday evening the Rev. Ellis Ilughes delivered a very interesting lecture on the morals of Wales and the highly important duty of educating the rising grneration, which lasted about two hours.

MESMERISM.—Messrs. Jackson and Davey, the well-known advocates of mesmerism, favoured Cardiff with a visit last night. The audience were evidently muc-h interested. Next Monday, we trint the Theatre will be better filled. THK Times is a venal paper like a Swiss corps, brilliant, but to bs bought. Hence you never know on which side it will appear, lathis case it was against us. The Tunes cares for nothing but its power and its purse. To secure these it will sacrifice anything. It did not open its mouth till there was a great noise about Mr. Shore—then it spoke. It tried to roar; but it could not. The thunder- woul(In't 'go off.' Then it spoke quite soothingly, took Mr. Binney into most familiar embrace, and recommended his friends to pay the costs. Afterwards it fenced' with Sir Culling Eardley, and concluded by calling the -d' e, affair 4 fudge.' There is nothing but the talent of the Times to prevent this word being its own strictly proper name. It has plenty of power all it wants to make it valuable is principle. It has abundance of talent, but it lacks truths to make it useful. May God send it both, or take it quite out of the way, is our fer- vent prayer. As at present conducted, we regard the Times as a curse, and its patronage a disgrace to the English nation. Its cove t Romanism can only be accounted for on the supposition of a very near alliance with the late movement at Oxford."—Eclectic Review,

MONEY MARKET,
MONEY MARKET, LONDON, WKDNKSDAY EVENING. The market for English money has been i-ailicr quiet during the week, and the amount of business done is rather limited. Con- sols have been 92- to 92, with the dividend and lor money. Bargains for the opening have been made at 90; to 99| ex div. Bank Stock has touched 19-1 to 195. Exchequer-bills are 45s. to 48s. premium; and India Bonds 68s. to 7Is. The New Three- and-a-quarter per Cents, have been 9 lg to 9 15. The prospect ol the Stock Market appears to be good.

MINING MARKET.
MINING MARKET. The business transacted this week has been of a very limited cha- racter. We find buyers for most of the leading mines, but the offers made are generally much under sellers' quotations. East Wheal liose, Devon Great Consols, South Frances, West Buller, West Caradon, and several others, have been sought for at lower prices.

RKMARICS.—The market continues dull for all kinds of metals, and the transactions ofth lost week have been upon a more limited scale than heretofore. Welsh bars must still be quoted at E5, free on board at the port, but a portion of an old stock is ofiered at lower rates. Staffordshire hoops, sheets, and nail-rods have been in dtmand to a moderate extent for India. In Scotch pig-iron there has been very little variation in price, and our quotations must be considered nominal at 43s. 6d. for mixed Nos., and 45s. for No 1 Gartsherrie aad Calder—net cash, free on board at Glasgow. Swedish iron is scarce, and a fair assortment much inquired for.- Of Sweetish steel there are buyers at £ 13 10s.—no sellers under i 14.-Copper was last week reduced Id. per lb. on sheathing, and £ 9 per ton on cake and tile.—The price of English tin has again fallen £4 per ton.—Tin-plates are obtainable at 27s. per box IC coke, and 32s. per box charcoal in London, and Is. per box less at Liverpool.—Lead is in moderate demand at quotatiuns-Spelter is iiat, and the price cannot fairly be quoted beyond jLlo, although sales were made within the last few days at E15 5s. The stock in London on the 1st was 2,300 tons against 3,500 at the same period last year.—Quicksilver is 3s. 2d. per lb. for ordinary quanti- ties. THE IRON* TRADE.—BIRMINGHAM, MONDAY.—The gloomy state of the iron-trade, as described in the Times of the 4th instant, is fully confirmed by the latest accounts from the manufacturing dis- tricts. It has been discovered that previous to the last reduction several large houses were selling from 20s. to 30s. per ton lower than the price fixed at quarter-day. A writer in a local paper this morn- ing states, that several furnaces in the neighbourhood of Wolver- hampton have already been put out of blast, and the amount of work done in mills and forges has been considerably reduced. Many others, rather than lock up their capital in stock with little probability of realising a profit, are preparing to adopt the same alternative. The cause of this unexpected stagnation is attributeato the interruption of our commercial relations with Austria and Germany, and the depressed condition of the agricultural interests.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE.
LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. MONDAY.—Very limited supplies of all grain of home produce reached our market last week coastwise, as well as by land carriage. Letters from the continent state that the supplies of wheat and flour offering in the various markets continue large. Rather extensile quantities have been purchased in France, Holland, and Belgium for shipment to England, at low prices. The quantity of wheat received fresh up to this morning's market from Essex and Kent was very moderate-that from Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, &c., small in the extreme. The show of samples of both red and white was trifling; hence, the demand for all descriptions ruled tolerably steady, at prices quite equal to those obtained on Monday last, and at which a good clearancc was effected prior to the close of business. With foreign wheats we were tolerably well, but not to say heavily supplied. Selected samples—which were scarce—sold at fully pre- vious rates. In the middling and inferior kinds, very few sales took place, at late currencies. The arrivals, since Saturday evening, have been small. Grinding samples were inquired for (chiefly for shipment coastwise), at extreme quotations. Notwithstanding that we had a very limited quantity of malt on offer, the demand for that article was in a very sluggish state, and late rates must be con- sidered almost nominal. Very few parcels were offering for forward delivery. Coastwise, the receipts of oats have been trifling since our last; but the importation of upwards of 27,000 quarters: froin abroad produced a good show of samples. All kinds met a slow in- quiry, at barely stationary prices. With beans we were scantily sup- plied, and yet the sale for them was in a sluggish state at unaltered quotations. The demand for peas was wholly in retail, at late figures. Indian corn sold at very full prices. Flour, both English and foreign, met a slow inquiry, at our quotations.

Although the attendance of buyers was limited, the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce was steady, at fully Monday's quotations.. The import of foreign wheat has been confined to 2,530 quarters, and the number of ves- sels off the coast grain-laden is small. All descriptions were in mo- derate request, and prices ruled firm. No English barley on show, but the supply of foreign was large. Grinding sorts were quite as s dear. Other kinds ruled dull. The sale for malt was again inac- tive, at last week's currencies. We had an extensive supply of foreign oats on offer hence the oat trade was heavy, at the late cle- cline in value. In beans, pca, 1-n.atcm co:rn., a.a Q(.>Q.t:\Q1.¥ y business was transacted.
LIVERPOOL (JOHN EXCHANGE.
LIVERPOOL (JOHN EXCHANGE. TUESDAY.—At this day's market there was a good attendance of the trade, and a moderate demand was experienced for wheat at about the prices of Friday, being a decline of Id, per 701b. since this day week. Oats and oatmeal were exceedingly difficult to move, and the latter may be quoted 6d. per load lower. There were hardly any transactions in barley, beans, or peas. Barrel flour was more inquired for, and approved brands of Western Canal were more difficult to buy. Indian corn was quite neglected, and prime yellow could have been, bought at 36s. per quarter. There was no change in the value of Indian meal.

SMITIIFIELD. MONDAY.—The continued low prices in this market operate against importations of live stock from abroad The late importation of preserved meat from Buenos Ayres has been submitted to public competition since our last, and been withdrawn at 5d. per lb. The arrivals of foreign stock at the various outports have been small. Fresh up, this morning, the receipts of home fed beasts were seasonably extensive, and of full average quality. The atendance of buyers was small; yet as the weather was favouiablo for slaughtering, the beef trade was steady, at prices fully equal to those obtained 011 Monday last. The general top quotations for beef was 3s. 8d. per 181bs. In extreme cases rather more money was paid. With all breeds of sheep' we were fairly supplied. Generally speaking the mutton trade was in a very sluggish state, at barely lust week's quotations, and at which a total clearance was not effected. The number of lambs was large, while the demand for that description of stock was heavy at a decline in value of quite 2d. per 81bs, Calves —the supply of which was good—sold slowly, at the late deçlillc in value. The sale for pigs was heavy, at barely late rates. Pricc per stone of S lbs. (to sink the offal). S. d. s. d.

; PEACE SOCIETY.
times. One great admiral told the committee that the people of France were only waning for an opportunity to make Great Britain a French province. Some of the committee, who had probably spoken wuh as many educated Frenchmen as this witness, thought it their duty to press him rather closely as to the evidence for this opinion and thereupon this admiral had given as his great authority, that the French people wished to make Great Britain a French province, and that they were burning to avenge the dishonour, the indignity, and defeats that they suffered forty years ago—all this lie gave on the au- thority of—the Bishop of Madagascar (great laughter).) He presumed the bishop was a Frenchman sent out for the purpose of Christianising Madagascar (a laugh). They would not find this incident in the evidence, as it was printed. Some friends of the admiral exerted themselves to get it struck out, and he (Mr. Bright) was very sorry that it did not appear. He con- tended that keeping up all these fleets and armies only rendered war more probable. "Under the present system, when war was over the two parties betook themselves to negotiation. Now, the Peace Society proposed that negotiation should be tried first (a laugh and cheers). Be it remembered, too, that a negotia- tion, after many battles had been fought, could not be eon- ducted on fair and equitable principles; for instead of two equals, there was a conquered and a conqueror, and justice was not done between two parties in that position (hear). People did not fight duels so often as they used to do the mediation of friends now settled the questions in dispute. The chairman had spoken of an article in the Times. Now, the whole of the urgument in that article, so far as there was any argument at u'.i—fur it principally consisted of ridicule of the movement and oi rhodomontade, which was not uncommonly met with in the columns of that journal (a laugh)—all the argument was, that if they had arbitration there would be no power to enforce its awards. He would admit that there was no power of the sword j but if he could not show that such a power was unne- cessary, and that even without such a power to enforce it, the principle of arbitration would be of immense advantage, then he would admit that their case would not be worth very much. The power of public opinion in this country had often been proved; it was not the law, but public opinion that had put down duelling, for so long as public opinion was in favour of duels the law was unable to put them down. It would be for them to create public opinion in this country, and for this country to create public opinion in the world, so that all na- tions pretending to Christianity might bow to the decision of arbitrators f. irly chosen between contending nations (cheers). It did not follow that other Governments should be the adjudi- cators, but that there should be chosen from the citizens of each nation, or of some neutral nation, in case of dispute, persons of the greatest ability, learning, and uprightness. Let these per- sons come together and form a temporary commission court, and after hearing evidence and perusing documents—and, it might be, listening to the most learned advocates on either side —let them give a decision; and depend upon it that decision would be received by the people of the country who had lost the award with more respect than they would now receive any award that came from the bloody arbitrament of the sword (loud cheers). If all our treaties with foreign nations had this international arbitration clause, the whole course of the Govern- ments would be different, for, instead of preparing for war, they would always be looking in the direction of peace, and there would not be even a pretence for keeping up great fleets and armies. We were paying about E46,000,000 a-year us a penalty for wars either past or to come (shame) and he believed that whatever might be the opinion of papers that wrote for a faction or for reaction, or whatever might be the opinion of Parliament, the vast majority of the moral, educated, and religious feelings of the country went heartily with Mr. Cobden's motion and prayed the House of Commons to adopt it (cheers). The hon. member concluded by reading the reso- lutions, which declared that war was a disgrace to the civilisa- L n of the age, and a reproach to the professed Christianity of i: wo; e. and expressed the fullest approval in the motion to be brought forward by Mr. Cobden in the House of Commons to- night (Tuesday). Mr. BKOTHEIU'O; M.P., seconded, and the Rev, J. BURXET supported the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Mr. E. MIALL moved, and Mr. G. THOMPSON, M.P., seconded, the second resolution, approving of a petition to the House of Commons in support of Mr. Cobden's motion which passed unanimously. Mr. KWAIIT, M.P., moved, and Nlr. E. BUHRITT seconded, the third resolution, expressive of the gratification with which the meeting regarded the Peace Congresses at Brussels and Paris. After the usual vote of thanks to the chairman, Mr. G. W. Alexander (Mr. Hindley having previously left the meeting to attend his Parliamentary duties), the meeting dispersed.
