National Secular Education. Oa Wednesday...
NATIONAL SECULAR EDUCATION . Oa Wednesday a Conference , called by the Lancashire _PuWic School Association , took place in the Mechanics' Institution , Manchester , to promote " a general system of secular instruction , maintained by local rates and managed by local authorities . " Upwards of 330 persons were present . A great number of delegates were present from tho leading towns , and various provincial districts . Mr . Henry , 1 LP ., presided , and Mr . Cobden addressed the meeting- at considerahle length in favour of the object in View . It was resolved to convert the Association into a national instead of a local one , and
to call it henceforth the National Public School Association . The proposal to style it the " Secular " School Association was rejected . It was also resolved ; - — " That the "branches of the Lancashire Public School Association , the London Working Men ' s Association for National Secular Education , and the associations and committees which have heen formed to promote the same object in Birmingham , Leeds , Leicester , Sheffield , Huddersfield , Halifax , Coventry , and other places , be invited to resolve themselves into branches of the National Secular SehoolAssoeiaiion . " A numerous and influential committee was appointed . In the evening the delegates dined together at the Albion Tavern .
Destbuctivb J*Tbe At Bath. — On Thursday...
Destbuctivb J * tbe at Bath . — On Thursday morning , about two o ' clock , a fire broke out in the upper part of Kingston Mills , Dorchester-Etreet , in the occupation of Mr . Rickman , and in a few minutes the whole internal part ofthe building became one mass of flame , which spread so rapidly over the timber works , stock-in-trade , and materials , that in ahout twenty minutes the roof fell in , and within an hour the whole premises , except the -walls , were reduced to a heap of cinders and ashes . An immense quantity of wheat and flour was destroyed . The stock-in-trade was insured . The premises , with the machinery and plant belonging to Mr . Sheppard , were insured in different offices for about £ 1 , 000 . With regard to the origin of the fire nothing can be correctly ascertained .
The Piatb Robberies . —Mr . Sirrell , of Barbican , gold and silver refiner , whose name has been so familiar to the public in consequence of charges of having received stolen property , appeared before Alderman Gibbs , at the Mansion Ilouse , forthe purpose of answering certain charges of having received property which had been stolen in the city of London . The articles in question were found on the 2 nd ult ., at the residence of the prisoner , and consisted ofa piece of plate which had been stolen from the Rainbow Tavern , Fleet-street . Another piece had been taken from the house of Mr . Godden , a gentleman who resided near Maidstone , aud -whose house had been plundered . The prisoner -was admitted to bail , himself in £ 200 , and two sureties of £ 100 each , to appear next week .
Leap ot a _Gesiiemax _yboh _Lox _& _os Bridge . — On Thursday morning , shortl y before one o ' clock , Mr . Edward Frederick Justins , of No . 59 , Fenchurch-strcet , City , and a Mr . Woodland , having "been spending the evening together at the Grapes Tavern , Union-street , Borough , were proceeding towards the City over . London Bridge , when Mr . Woodland , without _saying a word to his friend , mounted the parapet , and threw himself into the river . In his descent he no doubt struck against one of the buttresses of the arch , as a . loud crash -was heard "before he reached the water . The alarm ¦ was promptly given , and every exertion was made to recover the unfortunate man , but , owing to the darkness ofthe morning , without success , and he was carried away hy the tide and drowned . Mr . Justins knows no reason why the deceased should have destroyed himself . He was perfectly sober at
tha time , and seemed quite collected . He is described _as __ heing thirty nine or forty years of age , five feet eight inches high , and very thin . He was dressed in a light twill coat and dark trowser 3 . Accidest to Mb , Charles Mathews , the Coirenas . —At the Lyceum Theatre , on Thursday night , Mr . Mathews , while fighting a duel with Mr . Vining received the point of the sword in the palm of his left hand , through which it completely passed . Mr . Mathews left the stage immediately , and the audience were not aware that the accident hadhappened nntil Mr . Itoxby _, the stage manager , craved the inr dulgence of the audience for Mr . Mathews , who had met with an accident . The curtain dropped , and after a delay of about an hour the performance -was resumed . On making inquiries at the stage door it was found that Mr . Mathews was suffering the most acute pain , and the wound was discovered to be of a very serious character .
The Poisoning Cask near _ABEnxsiwim—At-SEUPI TO _MCHDER THE PRINCIPAL WITNESS . —Ifc will "he remembered that among the persons whose testimony bore most strongly against the accused person , Mrs . Elizabeth Jones , was a man named John Jones , who stated , that at tbe request of the accused , he went to the shop of Mr . Humphries , a druggist , residing at Aberystwith , and purchased for her some arsenic . This witness , therefore , is the most material of all , and on Monday evening a daring attempt was made to murder him . He was on the road , near to the old abbey of Ponteshydfenagaed , when he was attacked by three powerful men , -who made a most deperate attempt upon his life . They werearmed with knives , with which they tried
io cut his throat , and but for the obstinacy of his struggles would have no doubt succeeded . Fortunately the violent resistance which he offered caused the knife to be diverted from the direction in which it was nsed , and instead of cutting hia throat it deeply wounded his chin , passed across his mouth , and divided his cheek on the opposite side . He grew very faint from loss of blood , but after his assailants had left him he contrived to crawl into the abbey , when he found tbat his legs -were likewise cut . He is suffering so severely that lie was unable to be taken before the magistracy , and the police are still investigating the poisoning case , and it is hoped that punishment will yet be brought home to tbe guilty party . TheFrimletMurdeb . —The four prisoners were
"further examined on Friday morning . Charles "Weston , in the employ of Mr . John Pannell , grocer , of Quarry-street , Guildford , swore that Jones , a day or two hefore the murder , came into his masters shop for a pennyworth of gunpowder , which witness served him with . Levi Harwood , Jones , and Smith were committed for the murder and hurglary . Samuel Harwood will he brought up again on Wednesday next Suspected Mubder . —Considerable excitement has prevailed amongst the numerous officials and employes at the General _Post-office since Saturday last , in consequence of the disappearance of Mr . Joseph Harris , one of the inspectors belonging to that establishment . On Saturday morning he
attended his duties at the usual hour , and about cine o'clock , as was his custom , went out to take a walk , he having nothing to do again till halfpast ten . To show that he did not contemplate staying long , it is only neceessary to state that he left his great coat behind him . From that period up to seven o'clock last night ( Friday ) no tidings could be obtained of him , although inquiries had heen made all over the metropolis . There was nothing whatever amiss at . the Post-office to cause him to absent himself from the office , and the only conclusion his friends can arrive at is , that be has received some foul treatment . He has a wife and four children , who have been thrown into anagomsmgBtote of suspense by his disappearance . A oi iu

The Sweating System. A Nublio Meeting Wa...
THE SWEATING SYSTEM . A nublio meeting washeTd on Monday evening at oA ? fV _„ '« Hall Long- Acre , to hear a refutation _£ _« _° Afnmina Chronicle m favour of the Sweating Sew , who was announced to take the chair , S on his arrival , greeted with loud applause . The Secretary having read the bill convening the meeting , and the article in the Morning Chronicle , which professed to be the first of a series in whioh the writer intended to give a sketch of the different large establishments proposing to exhibit thengoods afc the Exposition of 1851 , with their mode of doing business , and the relation between them and theirwork people ; they commenced with Mr . Nicoll , nofc only as employing a great number of men , but also as being the donor of a magnificent prize at the ensuing Exhibition ; the whole article was a complete puff upon Mr . Nicoll ' s establishment ; but the
following was a dangerous portion , which occasioned the calling of the meeting . It stated that Mr . Nicoll employed about 1 , 200 workmen , and that he preferred employing them on the Domestic ( alias Sweating ) System , as ifc enabled them to have the assistance of their wives and children , and to work long hours ; and that itwas in other respects conducive to the physical and the moral welfare of those employed . The article in question also gave a glowing picture of the health and comfortable condition of the workpeople , and further stated that Mr . "Nicoll gave employment to a great many foreigners . Mr . _Mathkw , on rising , said that he was generally known among them as the Special Correspondent of tho Morning Chronicle , and the originator of the inquiries made by thafc paper into the condition of the labourer throughout the kingdom . Ho was no longer the correspondent of that paper , and he came there nofc only to vindicate tho cause of the tailors , but also his own character . He was not the author
of the article complained of , neither would he have written it for any boon that could be given him ; on seeing the Leader newspaper , he was surprised to see himself described as the writer , and thanked for the good he had effected in Mr . Nicoll's establishment , having left the Chronicle three days before . He immediately wrote to the editor to state in the paper thathe was not the author . To this his answer was "No . " ( Cries of " Shame . " ) He , therefore , was glad of that opportunity to disclaim the article , and to show the reason why his connection had ceased with thafc paper . Mr . Mayhew then informed tbe meeting that when he commenced writing tha articles on " Labour and tho Poor , " knowing the free trade policy of the paper , he
extracted a pledge , that not a line of his communications should be altered , nor a fact omitted , bufc he soon found that if he sent anything which clashed with their school of Political Economy , the pen was immediately drawn throught it . On one occasion , in an article on the bootmakers of London , it was carried to such an extent that ho could no longer pass it by , but wrote to the editor , demanding its unmutilated insertion , or his ( Mr . Mayhew ' sJ * dismissal . Mr . Mayhewthen read the correspondence between himself and the editor , from which ifc appeared that they would not insert it , nor yet allow him to state that he was no longer connected with the paper in question . Hnder these circumstances , as soon as he had finished the tour he was then
engaged on , he quitted their employment ; and then saw , with indignation , the present mawkish article , which he was aware would be fathered on him . He knew nothing personally of Mr . Nicholl , he only knew him as one who was dragging down the sinews of labour ; and as such he was his enemy . ( Great cheering . ) Ho was a working man ; he had worked hard at his profession , and had also starved at it ; and under the present system , every honest man was liable to experience a similar result . Mr . Mayhew then analysed the " domestic system " of which Mr . Nicoll put himself forth as the champion , and showed that it was productive of misery and crime . He then adverted to Mr . Nicoll , as High Sheriff of London , and showed that ifc was a disgrace that
such unfair traders should be elevated to such a lofty position , in a city where commerce and trade were the paramount interests . Mr . Nicoll had put the climax upon puffing—he employed the Sheriff ' s gilded carriage as an advertising van for his registered paletots . He also alluded to the glass palace in Hyde Park , and suggested that another should be erected by its side , to show how tho work people lived who produced those wonders of wealth . While they showed their glory to foreigners , let them hot shrink from exposing their ignorance , and then they would be able to judge whether England was the great nation she represented herself to be . Cheapness was the Millenium ofthe Political Economists , but cheapness was only a relative term ,
and if all things " were made equally cheap , they would be in the same position as when they commenced , having endured the horrors of tbe scramble for no effective purpose , bufc to benefit thoso who produced not . There were two kinds of cheapness , legitimate and illegitimate ; the first was produced by a large system of production , and the introduction of machinery ; thafc cheapness might be a blessing , provided they would kill their surplus labourers , but unless they did that , they must either keep them as paupers or criminals . Every day they were learning to do more labour with less hands . In the agricultural districts only one million and a half of people were employed instead of three millions . Formerly in Great Britain they had a
scientific power of six hundred million men to compete with the labour of four million of workmen . Was it not a marvel that the latter could live at all ? That was the great social problem which they had to solve , and which , if not grappled boldly with , would end in horrid destruction ; and yet men , like Cobden and Bright , were going about the country saying thatthe people were prosperous , well fed , and happy ; let either of these men accompinyhim through that country , and he would shew them such scenes of misery as should fright their souls with horror , if souls they had—they have none . This was the first time of his stating his views . He . knew the press would call him a Chartist or a Socialist ; he belonged , as yet , to no
creed ; he was only a seeker after truth ; he saw the evil but not the remedy , and they should not stigmatise him for searching out tbe truth . Cheapness cost this country sixty millions a year , ( of which Mr . Mayhew gave the items , ) a tax , paid by the working man and the fair tradesman , to support a few great monopolists , who gavo their men less wages than would support nature , and thus throw them for support on society . The speaker then went into the question of illegitimate cheapness . and showed that Mr . "Nicoll , by saving shop rent , light , trimmings , & c „ and paying his men reduced
wages , made an annual saving of £ 18 , 000 a year , whicb , during the nine years he had been in business , would amount to about the £ 180 , 000 which he professed to have amassed , The speaker then dwelt upon a variety of other portions ofthe subject , strongly denouncing all the petty contrivances of amelioration proposed by Lord Ashley and other namby-pamby reformers , and concluded an address which lasted above two hours , with tremendous applause . The meeting was addressed by Messrs . Essery _, Prior , Martin and Segur , and resolutions , denunciatory of the sweating syBtem , were unanimously adopted .
A vote of thanks was given to Mr . Mayhew , who , in acknowledging it said , that his vocation was simply _collecting facts , but , as far as he bad hitherto gone , the best remedy was a combination of working men in trades' unions . Tho honourable masters of every trade ought to encourage such unions ; they were an honour to working men , and effected far more good in supporting eaoh other , and keeping down poor rates , than the public knew of : they prevented the underpaid producers from being robbed by the overpaid consumer , and served as a check npon the rapacity of the rich . He then , in the most powerful and fervent language , called npon the working men to throw off their shackles , as the middle classes did in 1830 , and demand that labour should be protected . ( Immense cheering . )

The Roman Catholic Hierarchy In: ¦ ' ¦ -...
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC HIERARCHY IN : ¦ ' ¦ - ¦ ENGLAND . * * * *''' ¦ _'*•"* ; 7 The division of England into Catholic archiepiscopal and episcopal districts is causing great sensation among the champions of Protestant ascendency , and the Daily Press ( of every political shade ) has united in calling publio attention to the late movements at Rome . The " Apostolic Letter , " after alluding to the first introduction of Christianity into England states tliat — " Encouraged by the example of his predecessors , his Holiness has , ever since the commencement of his pontificate , harboured in his mind the desire of favouring the development of the Catholic religion among the
people of Great Britain ; and now , " considering as a whole the state of Catholioism in England ; reflecting on tho considerable number of Catholics which keep still increasing ; remarking thafc every day the obstacles are falling off which stood in the way of the extension of the Catholic religion , we have thought thafc tbe time was come when the form of ecclesiastical governmont should be used in England , such as ifc exists , freely exists , in other nations , where no particular causo necessitates the ministry of vicars apostolic . " Accordingly " we have resolved , and do hereby deoree , the _re-establishment in the kingdom of England , and according to the common laws ofthe church , of ahierarchy of bishops deriving from titles from their own sees
which we constitute by tho present letter , in tho various apostolic districts . " He then , commencing by the district of London , establishes an archiepiscopal see at Westminster , comprising the counties of Middlesex , Essex , and ' Hertford . The see of Southwark , which is suffragan to that of Westminster , comprises the counties of Berks , Southampton , Surrey , Sussex , and Kent , the Isles of Wight , Jersey , Guernsey * and the adjacent isles . In the north there is to bufc one see , named after the town of _ffagglestown . Next follows the see of the district of York , to be established at Beverley . There are to be two sees in the district of Lancaster ; thafc of Liverpool , comprising the Islo of Man , Lonsdale , Amounderness , and West Derby ; and that of Salford , including Blackburn
and Leyland . Wales shall comprise the diocese of Shropshire , including the counties of Anglesea , Caernarvon , Denbighshire , Flintshire , Merionethshire , Montgomeryshire , and Cheshire ; and that of Newport , comprising Brecknockshire , Glamorganshire , Caermarthenshire _, Pembrokeshire , Rad _** _norsbire , Monmouthshire , and Herefordshire . The west is divided into two bishoprics ; that of Plymouth , including the shires of Gloucester , Somerset , and Wilts , aud that of Clifton , extending over those of Devon , Dorset , and Cornwall . In the central district the see of Nottingham shall comprise the shires of Nottingham , Derby , Leicester , Lincoln and Rutland ; that of Birmingham shall include the counties of Staffordshire , Warwickshire ,
Buckinghamshire , and Oxfordshire . The eastern district shall form one see , under tho name of Northampton . *• Thus , in the very flourishing kingdom of England , there will be one single ecclesiastical province , with one archbishop and twelve suffragans , whoso zeal and pastoral labours will , we hope , by the grace of God , bring new and daily increase to the power of Catholicism . " On the publication of this Bull the- English Roman Catholics now in Rome obtained an audience of the Pope , and were presented by Cardinal Wiseman to thank his Holiness for these measures . Pius IX . spoke on this _oocasion , as we are informed by a French Catholic priest to the following effect :
—• ' I had not intended to send the new Cardinal ( Wiseman ) back to England , but to keep him near the Papal Court , and to employ his talents here . But I am persuaded , added tho Pope , that the time is come to set about the great _entetprise for which you have just thanked me . I think he has nothing to fear in England . I spoke of it some time ago to Lord Minto , and I understood that the English Government would offer no opposition to tiie execution of my plans . I therefore send this eminent Cardinal back to England , and I entreat you all to pray without ceasing that all difficulties may be removed , and thafc a million—nay , three millions—of your countrymen still separated from us may enter into this new church even tothe last of them . "
The Rev . Dr . Ullathorne , Catholic Bishop of Birmingham , writes to the Times , declaring that the Bull is simply an act * ' between the Pope and his own spiritual advisers , who are recognised as such by the Emancipation Act . " An increase of bishops , he says , was needed , and this could nofc be made except by the Pope , " nor without anew territorial division . " The change is the result of frequent and earnest petitions from the Catholics of England , and ifc has been mado in America and our own colonies , " without exciting a clamour . " The rev . gentleman , _asuerting that " it is difficult for the uninitiated to comprehend the technicalities ofa papal document , " contends that the entire measure has bean one of liberality and concession on the part of
_hli Holiness , and that the Pope has transferred from his handsj" into ours , the looal episcopacy , " literally giving them self-government , " retaining only his supremacy . " The letter concludes : — " It is as unfair to confound this boon of liberty to the Catholic Church in England with ideas of aggression on the English government and people , as ifc is to confound the acts of Pius IX . as Pope with the notion of his temporal sovereignty . For my part , engaged as I have beon in the negotiation throughout , I know that no politioal objects are contemplated in it . It was an arrangement much needed by the Catholics of England for their spiritual concerns , and I am , with all English Catholics , thankful for it , and I have no fear or alarm for the consequences . "
Dr "Wiseman has disallowed the recital at mass of the usual collect or prayer for the Iloyal Family . It is asserted by a correspondent in the Times , of Thursday , who was present at the meeting in St . Patrick's Chapel , that when Dr . Wiseman ordered the suppression of the prayer , no reference was made to any regulation of the Yiears Apostolic , but that the only ground he assigned for what he required was , the impropriety of having the name of an heretical Prince mixed up with that ofthe Pope in the mass .
The Archdeacon and Canons of Westminster have presented a memorial to the Bishop of London , asking for bis counsel under circumstances of an unprecedented character , and how they may best vindicate the rights of the church and the country , avert the dangers with which they are menaced , and maintain the peace of society , and the cause pf unity and truth . The reply of the Bishop was made public on Tuesday . It says : — " The recent assumption of authority by the Bishop of Rome in pretending to parcel out this country into new dioceses , and to appoint _archbishops and bishops to preside over them , without the consent of the Sovereign , is a sohismatical act , without precedent , and one which would not be tolerated by the Government of any Roman Catholic kingdom . I trust that it will not be quietly
submittedfto by our own . " With respect to " the proper conduct to be pursued on this occasion , " the Bishop says : — ' * You will do well to call the attention of your people to tho real purport of this open assault upon our Reformed Church , and to take measures for petitioning tho legislature to carry out the principle of the statute which forbids all persons other than the persons authorised by law to assume or use the name , style , or title of any archbishop of any province , bishop of any bishopric , or dean of any deanery in England or Ireland , by extending the prohibition to any pretended diocese or deaneries in these realms . It is possible tbat such prohibitions might not have the effect of preventing the assumption of titles by the Papal bishops , when
dealing with their own adherents _; but it would make the assumption unlawful , and it would mark the determination of the peoplo of this country not to permit any foreign prelate to exercise spiritual jur isdiction over them . " Cardinal Wiseman has also addressed his " clergy , regular and secular , and the faithful oi his archdiocese and diocese , " in a long epistle , whioh was read on Sunday in all the Roman Catholic chapels of the metropolis . It is superscribed " Nicholas , by the Divine mercy , of the Holy Roman Church , by the title of St . Pudentiana , Cardinal Priest , ArchbiBhop of Westminster , and Administrator apostolic of the diocese of Southwark , " and dated "the Flaminian Gate of Rome , " Ootober 7 th .
Dr . Ullathorne , the Catholic Bishop of Birmingham , was enthroned on Sunday morning in the cathedral ofthat town . The edifice was crowded . No leas than twelve clergymen , formerly ministers of the Anglican church , wero among those assisting in , or witnesses of the ceremony . The sermon , an _hour-and-a-half _long , was preached by Dr . Newman , and excited great interest . On this _ocoasion Dr . Newman said , "the mystery of God ' s providence is now fulfilled , and though he did not recolleot any people on earth but those of Great Britain who , having once rejected the religion pf God , were again restored to the bosom of the Churoh , God had done it for them . It was wonderful in their eyes . The
holy hierarchy had been restored . The grave was opened , and Christ was coming out . The Committee ot " The London Union on Church Matters " met on Monday , and resolved unanimously , " That this committee solemnly declares that it considers the present Episcopate of the Church of England to bo truly and completely that which was founded by the successors of the Apostles , and therefore is entitled to the entire and undivided allegianoe ofthe Church of Eneland That this committee having read and considered a " recent Papal Bull , together with an address from Cardinal Wiseman , feels itself compelled to state that it considers the same , with the _^ _liim _^ _S ScA _^^^
