ADVICE TO VISITS US. -Whenever you make a morning call, never, inadvertently, or with the air of a careless lounger, turn up the sofa cushions, or you will be certain to make both yourstlf and your friends uncomfortable, by the unexpected display of some funny object or another, that those tiresome children have hidden there.Punch. FIRST LOVE.-At the verdant age of seventeen I fell deeply and devotedly in love with Julia Wiggins, a young lady four years my senior. She seemed an angel. We sat one evening in the bower—at pur feet were the cucumber ■vines, above us grew a gourd, around bloomed sunflowers. Floating across the garden came the soft grunting of the pigs. I fell upon my knees, and squash went a mush- melon all over my new trousers. Lovely being," I cried, say thou wilt be mine." I saw the rising blush.-her eyes fell upon the ground, and she gave a sudden start, Look there, you tarnal fool," she said, see how you have splattered my new silk apron.Day Star. I'm afraid of the lightning." murmured a pretty young woman during a storm. Well you may," sighed her des- pairing adorer, when your heart is steel" CURE OF BIGAMY.—By the ancient laws of Hungary, a man convicted of bigamy was condemned to live iath both wives in the same house the crime was, in consequence, extremely rare. An amiable disposition, a cheerful temper, an obliging manner, these are priceless treasures in the female world t iey require watching, culture, pruning-they are the best, the loveliest, and the purest adornment of woman. A cramp in the leg may be immediately removed by tying any sort of bandage tightly above the knee. PUBLIC DEPORTMENT (Parliamentary Paper).—An Act for amending the public deportment of certain individuals, called Gents," abiding in London and other places.— Whereas, it having been represented that there are at present existing in the metropolis, as well as the provincial districts, certain individuals known and spoken of as Gents," whose bearing and manners are perfectly at variance with the characters which, from a monomania, they appear de- sirous of assuming and whereas, in consequence of cheap clothes, imitative dispositions, and intellectual poverty, this class is greatly on the increase, it has been thought necessary that this act should be framed, to control their vicious habits: may it, therefore, please your Majesty that it be enacted, and be it enacted henceforth, that all Gents" be prevented from wearing white cravats at parties, the same being evi- dently an attempt of sixth-rate individuals to ape the manners of first-class circles. And that no Gent who does not actually keep a horse, and is not in the army be allowed to strut up and down the Burlington Arcade with a whip and mustachoes, such imposition being exceedingly offensive, and amounting to a passive swindling of the spectators. And be it enacted, that all such things as light blue stocks, large figured shawls, cheap primrose gloves, white Cheater- field coal-sacks, half-guinea Albert bootsin fact, all those articles ticketed in the shop windows as Gents' last Style," be considered the distinctive marks of the class, and con- demned accordingly. And that every individual, moreover, smoking outside an omnibus, sticking large pins in his cravat, wearing fierce studs in his shirt, walking with others four abreast in Regent-street, reading slang publications, and adopting their language, playing billiards in public rooms, sporting dingy white gloves-in the slips of the theatres, frequenting night taverns, aud being on terms of familiarity with the singers and waiters, thinking great things of cham- pagne, as if everything at a party depended upon it, and especially wearing the hat on one side, be the signs of most unmitigated Gents," and shunned equally with hydro- iphobia.Puncla. To MAKE A MATCH.—Catch a young gentleman and lady, the best you can let the young gentleman be raw, and the young lady be quite tender. Set the gentleman at the dinner table put in a good quantity of wine, and whilst he is soaking, stick in a word every now and then about miss this will help to make him boil. When getting red in the gills, take him into the drawing-room, set him by the lady, and soap them well with green tea then set them at the piano, and blow the flame till the lady sings when you hear the gentleman sigh, it is time to take them off, as they are warm enough. Put them by themselves in a corner of the room, or qua sofa, and,there let them simmer together for the rest of the evening. Repeat this dose three or four times, taking care to place them side by side at the dinner, and they will be ready for marriage whenever you want them. After marriage, great care must be taken, as they are apt to get sour. MISCELLANEOUS DOMESTIC MATTERs.-Remedy for Sea- sicknesp-Take as much Cayenne pepper as you can rightly bear in a basin of hot soup, and the nausea will disappear. Corn Solvent (Sir Humphry Davy's).—One pound of salt of sorrel mixed with ten parts of potash, and ground to a fine powder. A small quantity should be laid on the corn for several successive nights, binding it with a bandage. Em- brocationfor sprains.—Mix olive oil and hartshorn, in the proportion of four parts of the oil to one of the spirit, and rub it into the diseased part occasionally. Shake before using. For the Toothache.- Foiir drops of the essence of thyme, four drops of essence of cloves, four drops of alka- line fluid. A simple Remedy far the Hiccough.—Take about a teacupful of cold water at nine sips, ana the involuntary cough will cease. Skeping Potion.Laudanum fifteen drops, sal volatile ten drops, sweet spirits of nitre and water one ounce. To be taken at a draught.Magazine of Domestic Economy. A COOL RL-pitoor.-One of Frederick the Great's servants having provoked him too much, the king gave him a box on 9 the ear, which somewhat deranged his hair. The fellow placed himself before a. looking-glass, and began, to adjust it, Scoundrel! how darest thou exclaimed the king, astonished at his impudence. c, Why, your Majesty," he replied, 14 I should not like my comrades in the ante-room to see what has passed between us two." The king laughed and stepped into another apartment.
FACTORIES' BILL.—EDUCATION.
FACTORIES' BILL.—EDUCATION. To the Editor of the Advertiser and Guardian. SIR,-Before entering on the discussion of my third question, there are some other observations to be made. First, the committee of management. There are four trustees to be appointed by the magistrates, who are not, generally speaking, the fittest persons to have a trust so un- limited reposed in them they are often not capable, never the most capable to make that selection which would more properly be vested in the majority of the rate-payers. They contribute the funds, are better acquainted with the circum- stances attending the selection, and have thus a double right to control their expenditure. This may be altered without material detriment to the working of the Bill, and, I trust, will be. Second: Interference with the Sunday-schools established and supported by sectarians. Could we place any reliance upon the statements of a man and a minister, who has not hesitated to give utterance to a tissue of deli- berate falsehoods, who has had the temerity to promulgate the most barefaced and injurious insinuations, who, in short, has omitted the use of' no art, however disreputable, no stfheme, however base, to bring into discredit the character and conduct of the clergy of the Established Church, we might grant a moment's attention to his assertion, that the Church will adapt the hours of attendance at the Sunday- schools to those of the Dissenting chapels. But, under these circumstances, it is impossible and imprudent. I do not perceive that the Sunday-schools will, in any measure, be affected and even were such the case, what is so trifling an inconvenience compared to the paramount benefits which will resultl Ought the art of printing to have been inter- dicted, because the benefits which society derived from it infinitely over-balanced the evil to the 60,006 transcribers it threw out of employ 1 Ought we to have no railways, because a few coach proprietors have beeli injured by them 1 Ought men not rather allow their children to attend the Churchschools where their minds will be cultivated and their morals chastened, than send them to Dissenting schools 1 Statistical observations which have lately been placed before the public, display an enormous amount of misery and crime. To inquire how this came to be the case would answer no purpose, we know that such exists, and it is our duty to provide a remedy. The legislature propose Educa- tion, and from my having stepped forward to defend the Bill from its calumniators, it may be supposed that their senti- ments find sympathetic ones in me. This is true, within certain limits j legislative enactments of another character must restore the mercantile world to its equilibrium ere education can be felt or appreciated; while famine stalks with giant strides through the length and tyreadth of the land, it is but the most heartless mockery to expect the production of benefit from mental cultivation unless the people are fed it may as well not be given, it will only make poverty more insufferable, the wretched more miserable and it is here proposed, not as a remedy but as a preventive, not as a present useful measure, but as a prospective beneficial one. What is to be taught is the question proposed for discus- sion, but whoever expects that I am going to enumerate the books and lessons which pupils ought to receive, is doomed to be disappointed. It forms no part of my plan to trace the stateman's progress from the "Early Primer" to Ricardo's Political Economy," nor the mathematicians, from the Tutoi's Assistant" to Newton's Principia." My chief object will be to indicate thejjeneral ends which a just and extensive system of education promises to effect, the greatest degree of happiness, which can rationally be thought consistent with human existence, and the most speedy means of obtaining it. There is not a word in the English language which has been so frequently used, misunderstood, and perverted as EDUCATION. Some men, who either never knew or must have greatly misunderstood its signification, see in it a key to Unlockithe doors of a terrestrial Elysium but so far from in indulging in visionary schemes or Utopian projects; it is thought that as in a state of greater perfection man spoiled one Paradise, he is quite as likely to spoil a second. Indeed a state of unmixed good is neither possible nor desirable. -Man j(both genders are to be understood) is presented to ur under a threefold aspect, as an individual, a member of society, and as a being responsible for his actions to a supe- rior power. The two first are those which come under notice here. Man's duty to himself is to preserve the life which has been given to him, and to cultivate the faculties with which he has teen endowed. The last only will be treated of. The cultivation of the human faculties is of a twofold character, to promote the development of some, and check that of others. II is his duty to improve his character by the cultivation of kind and generous dispositions, in order to become a good man, a kind father, an affectionate brother, and a dutiful son. He should, on the other hand, avoid allowing himself to become addicted to the vices of sensu- altity and intemperance, and instead of being a blessing to himself and to others, desert the wife and children whom he ought to cherish and support, make the benches of a tap- room his residence, the ditch by the road .side his bed, or, perhaps, usurp a pig's resting place. These things are to be effected by Education, but what shall be its character ? I have heard a great deal about the folly and injudiciousness of our present systems of instruction, and have heard and read substitutes propounded, which, in extravagance, ex- ceeded all that had been previously conceived. Yes, systems which, when contemplated at a distance, are awful in their profundity, but when more closely inspected, resemble en- tangled thread, of which one can neither discern the begin- ning nor the end, the meaning, nor the tendency. Cultivate the mind Educate it in the right meaning of the term!" "Enlighten it!" "Expand its field of in- quiry!" These and many mOle such exclamations are frequently heard, but which, not having any defined ideas attached to them in the 'speaker's minds, could convey nothing connected or intelligible to the hearers The fact is we have too much talent among us already, clever men are to be found in every hole and, corner they are to be met with from the hut to the palace the street begging urchin will cheat men in the quality of lucifer matches (apparently a plentiful commodity among the Dissenters) the tradesmen will sell goods under coat.-pi-ice, live upon the profit, and with much humanity, hate each other; one preacher will show us a shorter and cheaper path to heaven than another in short, there is no end to clever men. What we want are wise, good, and conscientious men; and unless the cultiva- tion of the faculties is accompanied by that of the moral sentiments, we shall only have left a medium for an extreme our transitions will be from a temperate to a torrid zone; from the cultivated fields of Europe to the arid deserts of Arabia. May we be ridded of those clever men who behold in every place, a prey in every face, a victim in every associate an accomplice friends only in themselves. Man, as a member of society, is a no less useful than an interesting phenomenon. The distinction we have made between him in these two states is a less real than imaginary one, they being so interwoven, that to draw the line of demarkation is impossible consequently, what has been said of him in his individual, may, within certain limitations, be applied to him in his social capacity. Those acts of ours which are primarily useful to ourselves are secondarily useful to others, and those which are primarily useful to others are secondarily useful to ourselves (Mill). Education is a word of Latin origin, lignifying to draw out. If the theories of Locke and the Phrenologist be correct, it follows that education does not consist so much in instruc- tion as in cultivation not so much in planting the tree as in directing and watching its growth. It does not derive its nutrition from any properties peculiar to itself, but from the atmosphere (moral or intellectual) by which it is surrounded, and, as that maylbe pure orjdeteriorated in quality, the charac- ter will bear a reference thereto. We cannot, therefore, but perceive that the greatest aid in the furtherance of a just good and humane education will be derived from the multi- plication of good examples, not from cabalistic figures, dog- matic precepts, or chimerical theories. The good examples of individuals will be followed by societies, as likewise will their evil ones, and the good or evil examples, the wise or foolish actions, the useful or pernicious enactments of com- munities will modify the characters and conduct of its members, as no effort whatever may have been its character, proposed object, or immediate success, has been without effect. Man has intellectual faculties to perceive that the material world may be adaptedlto his wants, while the proper cultivation of his moral sentiments will modify them, and show that as the wants of all are to be supplied from the same source, it would be injustice to monopolise the com- modity. The evils now lamented arise, chiefly, from an over stimulation of the intellectual faculties, and the neglect of the sentiments the remedy pointed out to us, is the elevation of them to the same position. Competition may benefit some, while it injures many'; while from co-operation the general benefit would be greater, the individual less yet what man of humanity would hesitate between the two courses 1 It is the misfortune of those who enter into metaphysical subtleties that they frequently take too high a flight for the compre- hensions of many of their readers, and, perhaps, for their own safety if I have transgressed in this respect, pardon is humbly begged, and if it be granted, a case in point (not an actual but a possible one) is given, which will better illus- trate my meaning—a man buys an annuity, and coolly calcu- lates the pecuniary advantages or disadvantages which will result to him from the death of a person before or after a certain period, and dwells, with evidertf. pleasure, upon the prospect of speedy death. Now, thougn such men may be loudest in their clamour for education and trumpet-tongued, call Educate the mind, teach it to think not what to think upon; chain it not down to sectarian creeds and exploded dogmas; confine not the youthful mind to the narrow channels of intellectual despotism cramp it not so that in after years it cannot rid itself of its swaddling clothes; habituate it not to certain trains of thought .from which it dares not depart;" it will avail nothing; their conduct shows an utter disregard of morality, Can men who, in the above manner carry on a shameful traffic in human life, know what morality means 1 Could, he tolerate it in others! Could he look upon another with the eye of friendship, without hoping to have him one day for a prey, without wishing to make him his victim 1 Could he be a good man, an useful mem- ber of society, or an honest worshipper of his Godl The education I wish to see prevail is one which will in- duce fevety man to look upon his neighbour with kindly feelings, and behold in him a friend, all assistant, and an associate ;—which will make him pardon the transgressions of his friend, and not be offended at the exposure of his own;—which having convinced him that the formation of his own opinions Wat owing, to a fortuitous combination of ■■ r, # circumstances, will induce, him to. view wilb. lenient eye the differing ones of an-otlker ;-which will render him no less willing to grant than receive assistance in misfortune -which will show him, that as classes must always exist, he should be obedient and industrious if a servant, and kind and conciliating, if a master;—which will show the pe- dantic and arrogant that they have no real superiority over their fellows, but what circumstances above their contro have instituted, and that all men are born with forms as perfect and souls as pure. Such is the education I anticipate the Government scheme to be productive of. It will draw them closer to each other, and by convincing them of their mutual dependence, rivet the best and most generous of social bonds. Many a man whose sphere of action has been a level or a furnace possesses morals more chaste, ideas more great, consistent, and refined, than most of those who lord over the human race, as if they were avenging angels, or flashing meteors, existing for no other purpose than to be admired and revered thinking those beneath them destined but to gaze and wonder. Perhaps," said a man, who devoted a whole life to the use of mankind, and one whom it is an honour to quote,—" in our presenee the most heroic deed on earth is done in some silent spirit, the loftiest purpose cherished, the greatest sacrifice made, and we do not suspect it. I believe this greatness to be most common among the multitude whose names are never heard."—(Channing) Pa use ye would-be great, learnedly ignorant, foolishly wise, and affectedly good, masters, teachers, advisers, and bene- factors of the human race, and reflect upon this truth ere ye debase those ye attempt to improve. Learn how little real dignity or goodness you possess, compared with many whom you affect to despise, and profess yourselves able to instruct. Shall we select the most assuming, ignorant, foolish, and niggardly of these (I refer to Dissenters), to instil their prejudices into the minds of the rising generation t Shall we allow our children to present to the world a diamond edition of such teachers 1 Shall the excrescencies of the present age be handed down to posterity as its most perfect beauties 1 Where is the man so devoid of feeling as to give an affirmative reply 1 We now come to that part of the subject which refers to religious instruction. Sir James Graham disclaims any in- tention of proselyting; and we do not find anything in either the Catechism or Liturgy of the church which any reasonable man can find fault with, yet the Rev. Thomas Davies terms them stuff. Every hearer, whose intellects were less blunted than those of the speaker, could not fail to have perceived that he had no other reason for saying so than a man worsted in an argument has for getting into a passion. They contain the purest morality, and the soundest philosophy; and if we search the Dissenters' Catechisms, we shall find them very far inferior. The moral duties in the Wesleyan Catechism are copied, word for word, from that of the church. In one part of the Dissenting Catechisms we find that we should bear a particular affection for all those who, like ourselves, are the disciples of Christ, by whatever name they are called." How consistent are their conduct and professions! In the Sunday School Union's Catechisms in use among the Independents, I find no allusion to moral duties at all. The Rev. E. Griffith says, Teach them to think, not what to think and supplies a luminous com- mentary upon this text by excluding from the children's reach all but what bear reference to his peculiar religious tenets. Of what earthly benefit is it to practice such a system of hypocrisy 1 The Scriptures, setting aside all its religious doctrines, is at once the most perfect specimen of historical composition, the most compendious system of philosophy, while its morality is of the purest character. The real question for every one's consideration is, Is the Government scheme of education in any measure better than what we have already 1" My desire has been to set this question in a proper light. If I have succeeded in doing so, it is all that can be wished. For my own part, I think it far more liberal than judicious for if the Church had more controul, it would increase the advantages to the children, and facilitate the operation of the scheme. Yours, &c., Dowlais, April 12, 1843. CLERICUS. N. B. Since writing the above I have seen Mr. Griffith's questions, the Arst of which, being self contradictory, means nothing. Sensible of Mr. G.'s courtesy I cannot but regret that his defects as a logician will not enhance his merits as a tutor. The seccAid question has been answered in my first and second letters, and by implication in the preceding paragraph. The third is one which, as a gentleman, he ought not to have asked, and which, as a gentleman, I cannot permit myself to answer.
THE PUNISHMENT OF TRANSPORTATION.
THE PUNISHMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. (From the Letter of a Privat? Soldier.) If tbpy (the convicts) misconduct themselves in the least before they get their tickets, their masters can take them to any magistrate for the least petty misdemeanour, and get tht-m from 50 to ISO lashes, besides returning them to Government; and if they are found guilty again, they are sent to an ironed gang for one, two, or three years, where I really think their condition is worse than any African slaves ever was. They are set to wotk at quarries, pulling aud hewing stones, from daybreak till sunset, with laeavy irons rivelted on their legs, and a soldier placed over them and if they refuse to do any- thing he orders them, or give him the slightest insolence or even a sour look, the sentry can take them before the officer in command and get them Bogged, from 50 to 200,' according to the degree of the offence. If a convict makes the least at- tempt to escape, or comes within 10 paces of the sentry, with- out hit permission, he must fire at him, or stand the conse- quence of a court-martial. Now, there is another class of double-convicted felons-that is, those who, after being in this ironed gang, are again found guilty of robbery. They are then sentenced for 7 or 14 years, or life, to a penal set- tlement, where they slave from morning tiit night, and no recompense for their labour. Directly after our regiment cuiiie to Sydney, I was sent on duty to Sockatoo Island, where all the worst characters are sent to. It is an island out in the cntre of the straits, between New South Wales and Van Dieman's Land. There are upwards of 300 prisoners on the island, and 42 soldiers to guard them. They are divided in eight watches, and do duty the same as on board of a ship. I arrived there on the 10th of July with the detachment, and everything went on very well till the 18th of September, when it was reported that the prisoners intended to make a rush in the evening. We were immediately under arms, and every- thing got ready to receive them, but I expect that the prisoners saw we were aware of their intentions, for they did not at- tempt anything that night; but we were kept up all night and the following, but nothing occurring, it was thought to be only a false alarm, and the third night we that were of the watch went to bed. I had fallen asleep (being tired with my two nights' watch), and dreaming of home and auld lang syne, when I was awoke by hearing a shot, and a call for the guard to turn out. We instantly sprang up, seized our pieces, and went out, when the first thing we saw was the prison door open, and about half the prisoners out rushing towards us, with pickaxes and crowbars, and two pieces they had taken from the sentries after having murdered them. We immedi- ately formed and fired at them a volley, which was very wrong, as we ought to have commenced file tiring, as before we could load again there were upon us, and we were obliged to come to the charge. In the mean time some of the prisoners had got to the powder magazine, right behind us, and exploded it, killing seven of our men, and wounding a great many more but, thank God, I escaped in the confusion. The prisoners rushed down to the wharf, slipped the cable of the ration-boat lying there, but no more than 43 could get into it before we were upon them, and they were obliged to put to sea. We immediately charged the main body that was left, and they very soon gave in. In a few days a detachment of 50 came to relieve us, and we were sent up the country after those that had escaped. We went through the bush in the direction of Port Philip, for 200 miles, till at last we got intelligence that they were encamped with some native blacks, near Towrang. We instantly started off, and about 12 o'clock at night we found them. We immediately surrounded them, and took them all prisoners to Woolloomowlloo gaol, where they were tried, and 27 hung in less than six days after they were taken. We then marched to head-quarters, where we were.welcomed like so many warriors returned from the fight. —•&4<S* A NEW KIND OF GAS.—The Censeur, of Lyons, states that, at one of the late sittings of the municipal council, a trial was made of a new portable gas, to which its inventor has given the name of "hydroluminous." The apparatus, says this journal, is very simple, and applicable to the smallest candlesticks, as well as to the largest and most splendid candelabra. The light it gives is very fine, and it is so portable that it can be carried about with the common hand candlestick. The Censeur says nothing of the com- parative cost of this new light. Hitherto all attempts to produce a portable liquid generating its gas by the mere action of its own light, have been attended with much greater cost than that of the article in common use, or with some practical inconvenience. If the inventor of the hydroluminous" has got over these objections, he will render a great service to the public by replacing the ordinary coal or oil-gas, which is always attended with more or less danger when used for internal lighting. THE RUMOURED ROYAL VISIT.-The Evening Mail con- tains the following semi-official announcement respecting the rumoured visit of Her Majesty to Ireland Some of our contemporaries are announcing,in the authoritative tone of a settled ffrmulary all the arrangements for her Majesty's (supposed) visit to Ireland. Without being able to con- tradict the rumour—for it rests upon no better foundation- which is current upon this subject, we can state positively that no official notification whatever of her Majesty's intended visit has been made to any of the heads of depart- ments in this country, nor have the slightest preparations been made, nor are any in contemplation, for her Majesty's reception, either at the Castle or the Park, or in any of the residence of the nobility, on the routes which she must necessarily travel." MONEY ORDERS. The Postmaster General has sent in- structions to all the provincial postmasters, informing them, that no credit must be given to parties applying for money orders, and that any postmaster or clerk granting a money order, without at the same time receiving the amount of the order, in money or bank notes, will render himself liable to dismissal." During the gales of last week, the brig Glory, belonging to Messrs. Grainger and Evans, of Neath, was driven on shore in Dunnorly Bay, Kinsale, and has since become a total wreck, crew all saved, THE JOBBERY OF PLATE AT SWANSEA., Last week, Edward Hoxoell, Elizabeth Clark, wife of Henry Clark, engineer, Elizabeth Davies, single woman, and Sarah Walters, wife of John Walters, were brought before the Mayor, John Grove, W. 1. Jones, and T. Edward Thomas, Esqrs., charged with the robbery of the plate of the Rev. W. Hewson, D.D., vicar of Swansea. Air. Win. Rees, inspector of police, deposed, that, in con- sequence of hearing that the property wai lost, and from in- formation received, he went to the dwelling-house of Mr. j Michael Marks, in Heathrield Terrace, who delivered to witness the following silver articles :Tea pot.and stand, two tankards, a coffee-pot, an urn well, a wine strainer and cover, snuffers and two stands, a knife, fork, and spoon, in a. red morocco case, eight tablespoons, sugar bow!, and twelve forks. On Monday morning, Mr. Marks delivered to witness a silver salver; three table-spoons, and a snuffers On the same day, witness went to the shop of Mr. I. M. Moses, pawnbroker, and showed him some pledge tickets for a portion of the pro- perty, which was given up by Mr. Moses, consisting of a silver cruet stand, three skewers, two table spoons, a sugar castor, aauce ladle, and- it tablespoon. Witness then pro- duced twenty-two pawn-tickets—r-fourteen for pledges at Mr. Marks's shop, six at Mr. Moses's, one at Mr. Kent's, and one at Mrs. Biggs s—-the two last were not tickets for any portion of Er. Hewson's property. AU the tickets were found in a drawer in the house of the prisoner Elizabeth Clark, in Cross-street, where witness went in consequence of having learned from Mr. Marks, that a great portion of the property was pledged by her. The prisoner was in bed in the room where the tickets were found. The drawer was locked, and when wituess asked for the key, the prisoner replied that it was lost. The drawer was then broken open, and the tickets found. Prisoner was consequently taken into custody. Mary Jackson stated that she was a single woman, and in the service of the Rev. Dr. Hewson, who resided at the Willows, in this town. She identified the plate, as the property of Dr. Hewson. The prisoner, Edward Howell, had been in that gentleman's service since August last, as an indoor servant. He left on the morning of Sunday week, before nine o'clock, and did not afterwards return. The first thing that attracted witness's notice was, seeing a strainer in use, which did not belong to Dr. Hewson. Suspicion being en- tertained, the drawer containing the plate, the key of which was kept by the prisoner, was forced open, and all the pro- perty produced by Mr. Rees, the inspector, was missed. Mr. Michael Marks stated, he had delivered part of the ar- ticles produced to the inspector of police, and would state to the Magistrates the circumstances under which they were pledged at his shop, begining with those fiut brought to him. The first article brought to him was the small silver waiter, by the prisoner Elizabeth Clark, upon which he advanced her 10s. He inquired very minutely whose property it was, and prisoner replied that it belonged to Mrs. Jones. Cambrian- place, a lady in reduced circumstances, who had lately come to Swansea, and was necessitated to keep a lodging-house. The next article pledged, was the silver coffeepot, brought by the prisoner, Sarah Walters, on the 9th of November, and upon which witness advanced JE2. Her story was similar to the other prisoner's -that the property belonged to Mrs. Jones, a reduced lady, living in Cambrian-plac, who had sent her to pledge it. Mr. Marks detailed the various articles he received in pawn, and the sums advanced on them. He subsequently stated the value of the articles. The following was the valuation given:—The teapot and stand, £ 4; two silver tankards, at Li-) 10s, each tll coffeepot, £ 3 10s urn well, Xi 10s; wine-strainer, 15s; snuffers, 10s; two I snuffer-stands, jE2; red case, with kinfe, fork, and spoon, 128; eight table-spoons, f4 10s; sugar-basket, fl twelve forks, 1:5; one silver tray, IG; three tablespoons, £ 1 three desert- spoons. 14B; one stutiffers,Cl. Mr. Marks further assured the magistrates that he had used due precaution in receiving the articles. Respectable persons were in the habit of pledging plate and empluy ing such persons as those with- whom on the present occasion lie got the plate. Mr. J Moses stated the sums be had occasionally lent on the articles pawned at his shop. In answer to numerous questions from the Magistrates, Mr. Moses also said, that 0 many householders, when pressed for the payment of rates, taxes, &c., sent persons of the prisoner's description to pledge their property. The parties were remanded for further examination. The rope of the incline through the tunnel from Spittal Tongues Colliery to the river Tyne at the North Shore, broke on Saturday whilst ten waggons were descending. The waggons thus at liberty ran a-main to the river, where a vessel was being loaded, over which a portion of them ran completely into the water, and the remainder were lodged on the deck. Happily no lives were lost, though the damage done was c,)nsiderable. -Newcastle Journal.

ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS BILL.…
ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS BILL. i. So far as the metfture has hitherto been discussed, Sir James Graham seems to us to have the better of the argu- ment in principle, while Mr. John Jervis has occasionaly the advantage in detail. Sir R. Inglis and Mr. Jervis both picture grievous evils fromthe bill should it become law, but they altogether overlook the monstrous nuisance in the shay e of four hundred peculiar jurisdictions iufiicted on the country as the law now stands, and they never once refer to the obvious and undeniable improvements contained in the measure. Little as we like some parts of the bill, still less do we like the opposition that is made to it. That opposition is on the one hand animated by the old biggotted dislike of change and by antiquarian partiality forlhe institutions of past ages and on the other by the interests of a small but influential profession outweighing public necessities. With Sir Robert Inglie we protest against the abolition of the Archdeacons' Courts, andhvith Mr. Jervis think, that a mere index in the country to wills is quite worthless for all practical purposes, and advocate the opening of Doctors' Commons to the entire body of the legal profession. But we cannot, as they do, o-verloole the great advantages which must result from the establishment of the new Court of Arches, and in opposition to their opinion we can see in the proposed centralisation great convenience and real simplification. This object of centralisation is, we must remark, more popular than sub- stantial and it is, at all events, quite in accordance with both the theory and the practice which have always governed the common law and equity of England. The particular hostility of Sir Robert Inglis to this measure does, indeed, surprise us, because it is, in fact, an attempt to preserve to the church privileges and patronage that have obstructed one of its most important functions, that have impedeci the exercise of spiritual discipline, and that have led to the curtailment of her liberties-it is an en- deavour to retain what the prelates desire to abandon,, and what the most enlightened churchmen have long ago con- demned. Sir Robert peremptorily and emphatically declares that the tendency of the bill is, to separate Church and State, and that it involves the confiscation of rights which the church cannot, if she would, surrender. That courts, christian or ecclesiastical, are, in their origin, distinct from courts civil we grant Sir Robert. The former are, undoubt- edly, referable to the institution of the apostles and the authority of Christ; and so far as religious or spiritual matters are concerned, the state cannot destroy them for spiritual jurisdiction is inherent in the church. But their unalienable and heavenly-derived authority is simply power "'of separation from communion. The jurisdiction they have so long possessed in cases of wills and marriages, and the imposition of temporal punishments they have exercised, are mere attributes granted by the state -to these courts, which the state is at liberty to resume whenever it pleases. They. are only accidental circumstances, concomitant upon their .true office. Sir Robert Iiiglis, is^pposing the separation of temporal from spiritual authority in Diocesan Courts, is in direct op- position to the higljisst arnd best church authorities. Of this he may satisfy himself by a perusal of one of the ablest and most useful works on christian discipline ever published, and as timely in its publication as it is admirable in spirit and eminently practical in intent. We refer to a little volume entitled Chyarch Courts and Church Discipline, by the excellent and ,pious "Archdeacon Robert Isaac Wilberforce. We rejoice at the postponement of the second reading of the bill on this if on no other ground—that our legislators will 1herby have the opportunity of instructing themselves as to the real wants of the church from this work, So far as the bill goes, it has, with some exceptions, the archdeacon's warm approval. 'j. The sole hope," he remarks yi one part of his work, of inducing the people of England to relish such spiritual dis- cipline as is adapted to the present times, is by showing them its total disassociation from that system which, "what- ever may have been the case in past ages, is neither expedient nor attainable in the nineteenth century. The spiritual sword is now to be resigned by the state, because unsuited to its pueposes.,# It is not found to answer in such hands, either for the prevention of vice or the preservation of tranquillity. What is desired, then, is, that it may be fairly and formally laid aside; that henceforth it may be clearly un- derstood that the church is to fight her own battles. We are content, that so far as this particular goes, she should cease to be established. The notion of an establishment does not defend on the existence of endowments — these are possessed already by various sects among us nor yet on protection, which all parties receive. That the Sovereign must be of the Church of England is a more genial part of it, as well as that its bishops, as lords spiritual, are one estate of the realm, and that its fabrics have a legal claim to maintenance. To these three points a fourth has hitherto been added, that its spiritual courts have possessed authority (at least in name) to pnnish all cases of immorality. This power the church is not unwilling to see abolished, but it should be abolished plainly and formerly. The dead stump of authority should not be left in the ground to preclude the healthier up-growth of the soil. The spiritual court and spiritual sentence, at present administered, have become so odious by the ingrafted influence of the worldly authority, that no remedy remains save their total annihilation. Let those things, then, be formerly separated which it were better, perhaps, never to have united. Let spiritual decrees be backed by no temporal results. Let testamentary and matrimonial cases be com- mitted, as the present act of parliament proposes, to courts held in the Queen's name, under her commission and by her authority. The royal commissioners have declared that in administering testamentary law the ecclesiastical court exercises a jurisdiction purely civil, and in name only eccle- siastical." As a question of principle, therefore, no reason can be adduced why a "jurisdiction," which is "purely civil," should not be exercised as a mere civil trust. In what places this jurisdiction shall be exercised, and in whom shall be the patronage of its administrators, are questions to be decided by the ordinary rules of convenience and justice. All that the church has to desire is, that this worldly juris- diction may not continue to overlay that spiritual authority, which had its origin from another source, and is directed to another purpose." Now, the error of the bill is, that it does not remove the obstructions to the exercise of that spiritual authority and it is this error which we had fondly anticipated Sir Robert Inglis would have been found advocating the correction of. If the church have to surrender her worldly influence, she ought most assuredly to regain spiritual power. Indeed, we do no fear, that if energy and fidelity like that displayed by Archdeacon Wilberforce distinguish the clergy, powers of discipline will yet be restored to the church. The recom- mendation of Ecclesiastical Courts Commission prepared the way for the Clergy Discipline Act. The present measure is founded on its recommendation and if the impediments to its exercise be removed by the enactment of Mr. Nicholl's bill, the re-establishment of spiritual discipline over church- men will follow, and complete these great and useful reforms. -Morning Herald. ■«!)>» PROTESTANT FOREIGN MISSIONS. The most recent communications which have taken place between the English and French Governments on the sub- ject of the British Protestant missionaries in the Society Islands, are calculated to dispel the apprehensions which have been awakened amongst a very respectable, but not very enlightened, class of persons. M. Guizot has given a distinct assurance to the British Ambassador in Paris, that mission- aries and congregations of all sects would be not only tolerated, but equally protected, by the authority of France in the South Sea Islands, and that the same protection would be carefully and impartially extended to all the mercantile and temporal interests of the subjects of a friendly power. This engagement on the part of the French Ministry is quite sufficient to secure to the English missionaries the fair exercise of their pastoral office. For the maintenance of of their influence over the people, and of the Protestant ascendancy" in Otaheite, they must trust to the superior purity of their doctrine, and we hope that their lives and conversation will not operate to the disadvantage of the cause they are sent to defend. The presence of Roman Catholic missionaries in the South Sea Islands is no novel occurrence. A Roman Catholic church, served by four priests, has long existed in Otaheite; and to any one who is acquainted with the success of the Roman Catholic missions throughout the globe for the last 300 years, the exertions of the London Missionary Society will not appear to require any exclusive privileges. The difference between the Protestant and the Romish missions may be described in very few words. Until a comparatively recent period the business of foreign missions in this country has chiefly devolved upon representatives of the dissenting persuasions which exist in Great Britaih whilst the Roman Catholic missionary, whether from Paris or from Rome, spoke the language and assumed the authority of kieprepentative of a constituted and universal church. It imay be regretted that, as European Christians, we should exhibit to the savages of the South Sea Islands those national and religious dissensions which are so hurtful to the common cause of civilization and piety. Certainly it is much to be apprehended that the spirit which has already been displayed here iby the leaders of certain sects will burn with increased intensity on the distant scene of action, and that all the strength of national prejudice and religious animosity will be put forth on either side by the future Wesleys and St. Xaviers of the Pacific. In addition to the unproductiveness and inconvenience of dependencies like those which France has recently annexed to her dominions, she will soon find that no population is so difficult to govern as one which is composed of savages and fanatics. -Times.
