" The one Idea which History _exhibits as _# _veraaore developing itself into greater _distinctness is , th _£ _Ideacf HuEaanitgp—the noble endeavour to throw down all the barriers erected between men by prejudice . and one-sided views ; and bv _aeffojig aside ths distinctions of Religion , Country , and Colour , to treat the wh 6 le Human race as one brotJherhood _, _having _bne great object ?—the free development of our spiritual nature .

After All The Implied Promises Of The Mi...
After all the implied promises of the Ministry , and in spite of _additional reasons for assembling the National Council , Parliament , it now appears , is not to meet in October next ! It will be remembered . _that Lord Derby stands pledged to call Parliament _together , and fo take its opinion _pn Ins policy , before the / close of the year ; which allows him two months after October . He has
¦ iot yet , therefore , broken his specific _ple . _dgfiA and the assertion t _& at the _Mfrlic is- " ind * glHu _$ > at the delay , _ratWr _caricitpB * the apathetic ! countenance of the « _ad _jwblic , _iwt _^ present . Nevertheless , there was an expectation _^ on very sufficient grounds , that the meeting of Parfi _anrewt wo _' uld ** _N » a 4 he delayed after October ; and the procrastination will be regarded as another instance of the shuffling already laid at the door of the Derby Cabinet .
The Ministerial papers report that the question of the American fisheries is settled j hut the public feels some _ddrtfa _* _awCteir Ihe fact , _iftu _™ or _ftr _^ _^ « hf _^ _asffisarw _e'wnPcann ' ojt be at all satisfied while the nationul representative _^ are k ept at - a distance , - and : debarred from exacting explanations . The documents have been produced piecemeal , and in a very scattered manner , and the final arrangement
has not yet been promulgated . Undoubtedly , there is a feeling of relief at understanding that au obstinate dispute with the American republic bus been avoided ; but there is some desire to know that our Government has uot avoided a dispute at the expense of a humiliating attitude . Another subject which is but beginning to attract notice , is the news from Burmah . Annexation is " lrtnmin » iv . + 1 ... A . * ..-.. « mi . _~ .. azi turn is "looming in the future The officers

disturbance ! , both ia our political and social relations . While Van Diemen ' s Land is declaring that it will stop the supplies for the maintenance of the official establishments ' of the colony , unless the British Government will fulfil its pledge to stop the emigration of convicts : —while New South Wales is making a similar declaration prospectively , unless control over . its own funds be conceded to it , the bait of the gold fields is aiding the permanent American demand for our working
classes , to drain the labour market in town and country . ' We have already mentioned instances of this fact , and the present week supplies some further examples ; _Wliile Mr . Wyndham Harding's ship , at Southampton , is _carrying off a body of emigrants on Mrs . Chisholm ' s plan of grouping _—Awhile the _pariiih of St . Martii _& _fektetho _^ ields . _ls resuming its successful movement-in fa _$ < 5 ur , of parish emigration—the drain , _. upjpii _* . the labour market has been so severe in sortie' parts that , in
Scotland _^ for example , colliers have been engaged in leaping * and in Sussex , _private soldiers ' of the Fo © t ; gudV * d 4 . _# * ve turned _the'ir'dwGrds into sickles . s _^ _Wefirf _iWessors of Q f _$ Sg _}^^ try with draw n sword and loaded pi _$ t _« l- find ' themselves ignominiously disarmed and lodged in gaol by the police . This is instructive , and shows that the Stockport riots are not catching . But where is the neophyte Mr . Forbes Mackenzie , M . P . ; why was not he there on tbe glorious 12 th of August ? - In-the * metropolis there are different doings . The
Reverend Mr . Oakelcy invokes the protection oj Mr . Walpole against the parodies of the Roman Catholic religion , performed by an itinerant lecturer named Teodor ; the person who operates _wtth vQ _^ y lio _^^ . _^ tftionjed last week . Mr . Wal - pole can _*< tb nothing _£ _oV ) ri _^ peace _-feljquld follW _^ _lie " disgraceful proceedings . Everybody is remarking that' it would havo been far different had the ce _' remonies of the Church of England been indecently mocked by an unbeliever . Meanwhile Roman Catholicism issues from Oscott
College " , a portentous document , beginning , "We the Archbishop' and Bishops of the Province of Westminster , in Provincial Synod assembled ;" _btit the paper merely consists of an essay on _education . The poor must be educated , ¦ ' ' say _theke gentlem _^ j _^ bw _^ thc education must be " up to : the mark of modern demands , and-yet it must be solid in faith and in piety / ' In fttCt Roman

Catholic secular knowledge must be imparted : but so efficiently that no pretence may be " tenable for sending Roman Catholic children elsewhere . " Not only the poor but the middle and upper classes , must be taught apart from , the mass of the people . Certain decrees and canons the document informs us have been agreed to j but until Rome has sanctioned _them , they cannot be pub _^ lished . The closing paragraphs , with obvious
allusions to Stockport and 'Six-mile-bridge , recommend peaceful behaviour and absolute reliance on the laws of the land , even under the severest provocation . It is a pity the letter was not less diffusely written . It is signed by three unknown English names—Secretaries of the Synod . If it be intended as a text of the comprehensiveness of the Ke _^ b _^ _jiastacal Titles Assumption Act , why did not the" archbishops and bishops affix their own names ? - ' "'
The Paris Fete of the Fifteenth of August was a failure . A driving wind shivered tbe decorations , a pelting rain deluged the fireworks . As for , the general illumination , it was ; chiefly remarkable for being not general ; biit" notoriously special and official * ; tiie " citizens making their windows conspicuous for darkness . The demeanour of tbe National Guard , purged by prison , exile , and exclusion , of its hostile elements , was rather reserved than respectful ; certainly not sympathetic to the Saviour of the existing order . The populace , blase . and ' ' _'jndifffrcnt * ' gaped and gazed , and lounged about , and then went homo sick to death of
pnsteboard mountains and gingerbread Napoleons , and lampions as destitute of light as France ol liberty . Trade rejoices at the influx of strangers , and forgets the * dost " -of the attractions , and so _^• _ftf _^ -P _^ t _^ t _^ indifferent ; befooled , is content ' _tO'dHft _' tb dissolution , a gaudy slave , a spectacle to ' gods and men . While tbe _Archaeological Association , under Presidency of the Duke of Newcastle , is surveying
the Midland Counties to revive the perception of their ancient aspects , —while fine and , penulty are striving to cheek the overcrowding of " steam _vessels , on the river , —our railway system is _/ ptruggling out of anarchical hostilities fatal to shareholders , and disastrous to the publie , towards a totally new principle of . government—a general " _amalgamation .
