This affords striking justification of the pro-
ceedngs OF the laity of Exeter, while il exposes
the ignorance and reproves the folly OF those who
pin their faith to the rubrc as if il were infalibe
L likewise throws lisht.npon the mandate Of the
Bishop of Exeter to his clergy, .sto return to full
observance of the rubrc, falling short Of their pre-
scribed part In nothlng; or, rather, il makes the
darkness OF that mandate visible, and strongly sug-
ges's the necessity OF further revelation, pointing
out what really is the "prescribed part" of the
clergy in such cases as that which we have lust

GREAT FooT RAcE.-The great foot race on the
9th u!t. between Jackson, the American deer, and
Sheppard, OF Birmingham, for fl00 side, was
was IN every respect most excellently conducted
Gannlck Corner, two miles beyond Barnet was Sc
lected as the scene OF action and thither an assem-
blage OF 5000 persons, with fewer roughs than we
are Ia the habit OF meeting with at such races as
sembled. Betting was 5 to on Sheppard, and the
money was being laid outfreely The contest was
TO ascertain which of the men could perform the
greatest distance in one hour. and some good sums
were speculated on the question of distance that
would be accomplished. I he preliminares ha-
wing been arranged, the men both took their sta
tons at the 18th milestone to walk to the 18th and
return The start was taken at railroad speed,
Sheppard just leading; and on their return, after
having performed the two miles in 10 minutes 10
seconds, they were in the same position. They
continued in this way for considerable period,
their speed exceeding the expectations of even the
most sanguine OF their hackers. The first six
miles were performed in 81 minutes Is seconds
and they appeared to be almost as fresh as at the
moment OF starting, and were close to each other.
At the conclusion of the 10th mile SHEPPARD began
wards he tell to the ground. Jackson proceeded
at sackened pace for the remainder of the way
and the one hour had passed as he was 100 yards
from the eleventh mile. The winner was trained
by the great Robert Fuller.

The new movement in ireland is curious one,
and the result of it will determine an important
polnt, viz. whether the Roman Catholic Bishops
in that country are allowed the free and uncon-
trolled exercise of private udgment-whether, in
point of fact, they the guides or the ornament
ed slaves of the seditious laity


II will be recoected that by the Charitable Be-
quests Act, which passed in the last session OF par
Lament, power was granted 10 the crown to appoint
ten commissioners to carry out its provisions As
The act affected the property Of Roman Catholics
as well az Protestants, five Roman Catholics were
nominated and have accepted the office, three of
whom are Bishops


The act is denounced by John M'Hae of Tuam,
and by Daniel O'Connell, and all the furious bigots
and senseless dupes OF the repeal faction, as a
grevous interference with the rights of ' The
Church." In TACT, the sore part is this-the crafty
and dishonest priests and riars will, for the fnure
be prevented from extorting money from dying pc
nitents. In consequence of this denunciaton, and
the torrent OF vulgar aspersion which has been
poured upon them, the three commissi oner bishops
are placed ina position of much psrplexity if not
Of danger. In Dublin we find that the chapels,
more Immediately under Dr. Murray's inspection,
were almost deserted Sunday last, while the
friaries, and other chapels, were usually crowded.
Ia Dr. Crolly's district the proofs of dlsobedience
resentment, and hostility to the bishop, are much
more decided He has two large chapes in Drog-
heda which may be said to be "To Let" for since
his name was published in the list of commission
ers, they have been completely abandoned and
Stunned. In other parts of his district similar feel
ings prevail; and 1t is asserted that the whole of
Roman Catholic commissioners at least the three
bishops, will be compelled to resign the office they
accepted, as we most couscientlously believe, for
the good of the Roma6 Catholic Church itself, and
her members generally, in Ireland.


In this usurpation of authority BY the mob, we
perceive the seeds of much evil. When the feet
dictate to the head-when the source of authority
IS from below, not from above-when the prelate
must obey car driver, tinker, billsticker, and
the sweeper OF crosslng-it is, indeed, time for
bishops to "set their houses in order" and kings to
look out for an ark, for the cry of "No bishop 70
has invariably been succeeded by that OF "No
kingw and both have fallen together.


Some persons may not be dspeased with this
state Of things in Ireland. We cannot say we are
of their number. We can neither coincide nor
sympathise with them. We have a far greater
dread OF anarchy than OF despotsm. We dread the
long fangs of mob more than the sword or the ter
rors OF a monarch. We have no apprehenslons
from absolute power in one person, or in an oligar-
chy, In this country but we have not the same con-
n0ence In our security against the uSurpatOns, ra-
wages, insolence, violence, and blood thirness of
democratic power. One man may defend his life
and property against the assaults OF one sangunary
rufian; but when the number of rutfians is ten TO
one agains, him, how can he escape-how protect
either his property or his lite Z
