For further particulars apply (if by letter, post paid) to Mr. OLIVER LLOYD, Solicitor, Cardigan and for a view to Mr. David Evans, the Proprietor, on the Premises. Mr. Mortlock's splendid and unrivalled STOCK, The most extmsive in Eui-ope. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has been favoured by jJvjL the instructions of the worthy Proprietor (who is retiring from the fatigue and labour of a successful career) to offer for SALE BY AUCTION, on the Pre- mises, without the least reservation, on MONDAY, the 3d of AUGUST, and nineteen successive days (Sundays excepted), the splendid atkd unequalled STOCK of Mr. MORTLOCK, of No. 250, OXFORD-STREET. The fame which this Establishment has acquired, not merely in England, hut extending THROUGHOUT EUROPE, FOR HALF A CEN- TURY PAST, renders the task of doing justice less difficult. The al- most countless thousands who have, during a long course of years, congregated at this favoured EMPORIUM of ART and EMBELLISHMENT, will respond to the observation which necessarily fol- lows:-For SPLENDOUR and VARIETY in all the MULTITUDI- NOUS BRANCHES of CHINA and GLASS it never had to dread a successful rival. The art has always found encouragement in the liberality of the proprietor, who has laboured hard in his vocation, and the public have never failed to give to it their en- couraging and liberal approbation. It would be in vain to attempt more than a brief analysis of that which is comprehended in this SPLENDID MAGAZINE, which will be included in a bale extending over twenty days. The opportunity is, however, singularly rare, because everything is in the best keeping with approved taste, and nothing of old-fashioned stock will be found to obtrude on those who seek for the greatest variety, embodied in the very best fashion. THE ORNAMENTAL CHINA, which alone is abundant to adorn, ALL HIS MAJESTY'S PALACES, as well as those of most of the GREAT POTENTATES THROUGHOUT EUROPE, is of a character so ehaste and so elaborately finished as to ask in candour for a comparison anywhere. The space assigned for this announcement compels the detail to be fearfully compressed. THE FAMED YORKSHIRE VASE, THREE FEET HIGH, and a COPY of RAPHAEL'S CARTOON of the DEATH OF ANANIAS, are masterpieces of the art on china. THE DRESDEN ORNAMENTS are of the highest order, and extend almost to profusion. As an example THE DRESDEN FRAME and MIRROR, with RAISED FLOWERS and BIRDS, leaves competition one hundred years removed. The vases of every form and size and the East Indian pagoda, are of the same character. There are SEVERAL HUNDRED PLATES, selectedfrom all the manufactories in thecivilized world. PLATEAUS, SPLENDIDLY PAINTED; and LORD STRAFFORD and his SECRETARY, from RA- PHAEL'S PICTURES, are accounted chef d'eeuvres. IN ENGLISH CHINA and ORNAMENTS the VA- RIETY and EXTENT is INFINITE; and, for the household department, the opportunity thus presented is without any parallel case. Noblemen, mer- chants, tavern-keepers, and hotels will alike find abun- dant scope to exercise successfully their "PECUNIARY WAYS AND MEANS." and to any and every extent. To illustrate SEVERAL HUNDRED SETS of DINNER SERVICES, varying in their original cost from 3 to 100 guineas a set. 150 DESERT SERVICES, from one guinea to one hundred each. 500 TEA EQUIPAGES, from one guinea to twenty-five. 150 BREAKFAST SETS, from twenty-five shillings to as many guineas each. THE MAGNIFICENT COLLECTION OF GLASS OF EVERY DESCRIPTION, includes in variety, brilliancy, usefulness, and effect|all that the most versatile mind can desire or wish for. IN THE SECONDARY DEPARTMENT, of China will be found, and in inexhaustible profusion, everything required for the kitchen and dairy. It may be well, in conclusion, to observe, that Mr. Robins has not to dread that he may be accused of exaggerating his description of this property. Public opinion has, for the last half centurv, pronounced a much higher encomium than the present imperfect description has attempted; and he has only to, ask of the public to seek confirmation by the most positive proof, viz., OCULAR DEMONSTRATION. The whole will be on public view the week antecedent to the sale, by catalogues, at oldy one shilling each, which will include six days' sale, at the Warerooms, No. 250, in Oxford-street, not far distant from Hyde Park. Covent Carden, July 18.

-REFORMERS OF CARDIGANSHIRE,…
REFORMERS OF CARDIGANSHIRE, BEWARE The Tory Tivy-siders, both of this county and yours, are concocting a plan to deprive you of the parlia- mentary services of your long-tried and justly-valued representative, Pryse Pryse, Esq., and to transfer you, like so many serfs, to Mr. John Jones, of Ystrad, the rejected of Carmarthen, and Carmarthenshire, whenever a dissolution of Parliament takes place. The spirited and independent constituencies of the Cardiganshire boroughs, and especially the dissenting portions of those constituencies, we have no doubt, will give the men who would make so daring an attempt on their dearest rights to understand that they have reckoned without their host, and that they will never submit to exchange their present repre- sentative, who has so long, so zealously, and so suc- cessfully, watched over their interests, for a mere political weathercock, who has been all things by turns and nothing long. As public sentinels, how- ever, we warn you of the plot which is forming against you, and we have no doubt that you will take such measures as will not only frustrate it, but as will make the seat of a certain county member, who it is stated, though we hope without foundation, has lent himself as a party to so foul a design, totter to its foundation. The reformers of the Cardiganshire boroughs we are persuaded are no weathercocks, and will never subject their interests to the caprices of any representative of the whirl-about genus.

Sir Robert Peel, it is evident, has carried his jesuitry too far for his party. He became the tool of the Conservatives the moment he abandoned his Ita- lian tour at their conceited beck, and quitted the pursuits of taste abroad, for the bubble of ambition at home. The Court and Apsley House made a fool of him, and now they cast him out because his cun- ning has not quite matched their knavery. Sir Richard Vyvyan, the worthy representative of the Bristol immaculates, has now displaced the Tamworth mummer, as leader of the Conservatives and the genuine undisguised animosity of the faction to all availing municipal reform, is glaring in the eyes of the public, like a fierce beacon light, showing us the position of the enemy. We never gave the s ightest credence to Tory pretensions of assent to the mea- sures of Lord John Russell's masterly bill.-We knew it was impossible that the mischievous crea- tures could rest under such a bold attack upon the strongholds of bribery and corruption; and, there- fore, were not taken by eurprise when their venom found a natural vent through the organs of Bristol's own elect-the" true blue" representative of beef- giving aldermen, and beef-eating freemen—of cor- porate charities degraded into Tory bribery-boxes— and select vestry bounty, lavish only when political vices are to be promoted. Truly, Conservatism is how well and fairly headed; and if the scorn of an enlightened people were not already at its height for such a faction, it would now be consummated. We bid the anti-national party defiance. -Th ei r si --nula'ion has been carried somewhat too far for their own objects, and they have taken up their weapons too late for any chance of a victory to their forces. It is, nevertheless, a melancholy subject of reflection, that these reckless men are pursuing a career of fruitless opposition to the progress of reform, which is hurry- ing us into the most perilous chances, and threaten- ing the country with a convulsion already gloated upon in prospect by the revolutionists and demagogues of the days who are hitherto but a feeble minority, but whose hands would be incalcu- lably strengthened by any successful outbreak of To- ryism. Last Monday night, however, maugre the bluster- ing of Sir Richard Vyvyan, and his bottle-holder, Sir Robert Inglis, in the cause of municipal cor- ruption, and the loud and angry harangues on spo. liation," vested rights," and other equally ridicu- lous technicalities of Toryism, the Corporation Re- form Bill was read a third time, without a division, in the Commons, and passed amidst the hearty and long-continued cheers of the Home. We admire the prudence of the Tories in not risking a division on either the second or third reading of this Bill. They well knew, doubtless, that such a proceeding would have shown their opposition to be fotble as helpless infancy, besides being a public recantation of their vaunted pretensions as .reformers; and, therefore they thought it best to play the snake in the grass, and endeavour to mutilate the measure in committee. Their schemes have, however, been defeated by the vigilance and zeal of the Ministry and its patriotic supporters, and the Bill has made its way through the Commons, not only unmuti!ated, but in several important respects greatly improved. On Tuesday night it was introduced into the House of Lords, where it was read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time that day se'nnight. Earl Grey expressed his warm approbation of the entire measure; and it now remains for the Tor;, Peers to pass it unaltered in its principle, and unenfeebled in its leading provisions, or abide the consequences. Whatever their Lordships, in the plenitude of their hereditary wisdom, may please to do with it, it is a consolation to know that they can no more stop the progress of efficient reform, than Dame Partington with her mop can prevent the flowing of the sea.
ECCLESIASTICAL POSSESSIONS…
ECCLESIASTICAL POSSESSIONS IN THE REIGN OF WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR. William the Conqueror having established his authority over a large portion of the southern and inland parts of England, proceeded to extend his power towards the West. Wherever his conquering forces came, fire and sword desolated the country, and every kind of property was seized upon and pos- sessed by his rapacious followers. The Churchmen of that day were a mixed race; a large portion were native Saxons, but the most influential were of Nor. man extraction, whom the wretched policy of the imbecile Edward had called over to this country. The consequence was that the foreigners favoured the pretensions of their countrymen, whilst the na- tives opposed them. The first object of the conquer- or's vengeance against those ecclesiastics who offered opposition was the Abbey of Ilida, whose Abbot, with 12 Monks, had been slain at Hastings, fighting in the ranks of their legitimate sovereign. Their possessions were seized on by the King; pro abbate, baroniam unam, et pro singulis monachis qui cum abbate, in bellum processerant, singula feoda mili- tum. The next attack he made on ecclesiastical pro- perty was on the Monastery of St. Alban's, which fell to the lot of one of his Knights, called Robert of the Swan. The reason given for this was the fol- lowing:—On his road from Berkhampstead to Lon- don he perceived the trees about this place all felled, and formed into rough fortifications. The Abbot boldly avowed the object, and said that if all of his order had equally done their duty to their coun- try, perhaps he would not have penetrated so far." The immense produce of these first fruits of spoli- ation were divided as follows:-First, the new King kept as his own share all the treasure of the ancient Kings, the gold plate and ornaments of the churches, and everything rare and precious to be found in the Monasteries. Part of them he sent to Pope Alexan- der, together with Harold's standard in return for the blessed standard he had received from Rome. All the churches abroad, in which psalms had been sung and tapers burned for the success of the invasion, received in recompense crosses, vases, or gold stuffs. The rest of the booty, with the lands, was divided among the troops. Shortly after this, the Monastery at Winchcombe lost all its possessions, because the Monks minus caute de futuris prospicientes, elege- runt pro viribus resistere. The Monks of the Con- vent of St. Frideswide, following the example of those of Hida and Winchcombe, appeared 'in arms under their gowns to defend their native soil: they were stripped of their possessions and driven from their abode. The next attack upon the property of the Churchmen of which we rerd was made on that of Eldred, Archbishop of York, who, a traitor to his country, had crowned the usurper King. On pre- senting himself in full costume to the conqueror, the King was about to salute him, according to the cus- tom of the time, with the kiss of peace; the Saxon drew back. Hear me, King William, I anointed thee King, I crowned thee, I blessed thee with mine hand; but now I curse thee and thy race, because thou art the persecutor of God's church, and the oppressor of its Ministers." The possessions of the See of Durham were the next confiscated. The Mo- nasteries of St. Peter at the Wear, and the Nunnery of Whitby, were profaned and burnt; and then every monastic institution to the North of the Humber, with the exception of that of St. John at Beverley. About this time (A. D. 1068) William bethought him- self that it would be necessary to provide Priests for the country he was depopulating of their own Clergy; the Abbot of St. Regnier, at Ponthieu, with upwards of 100 Monks, were, therefore, invited over in one company, and were provided for out of the confis- cated lands. A body of half-starved Benedictines from Seez, in Normandy, were planted in Shrop- shire, and the tenth of all the venison taken in that county was assigned them for their sustenance. Some Monks of St. Florent, at Saumur, were settled in the domains seized on by one of the conqueror's nobles, named Guillaume de Branse. A similar colony was appointed to the monkery of Stone on the Trent, all its Saxon occupants having been put to the sword. The seizing the lands of the different religious establishments caused a deadly hate against the oppressor in the minds of the ecclesiastical body, until which time they had, with the exception of a few noble instances, shown but little ardour in the defence of their country. They had suffered less from the conquest than the rest of the nation, their lands had not all been seized, or their houses every- where violated; but, in the month of April, 1069, the King, by the advice of William Fitzosbert, his favourite, monasteria totius Anglice perscrutari fecit; all the money and precious vessels were seized and confiscated. This took some months to accomplish, and about Easter in the following year three legates, literis regiis accersiti," came from Rome to examine and correct the abuses in the Saxon church. The object of the conqueror in this was to give the colour ûl" religion to a design purely political, namely, to deprive every native Priest, who possessed talents to be dreaded, of the power of doing him harm. The first attacked was Stigaud, Archbishop of Canterbury, whose real crime was the having taken arms against the foreigner, but who was degraded because he had received the Pal- lium from the hands of Benedict the 10th, who had subsequently been degraded and excommunicated by a victorious competitor. The lands of the Arch- bishop were thereupon seized, and divided into three parts; another was taken by the King, one was allotted for the maintenance of the Queen, and the third fell to the lot of the King's General of the Cavalry, the Bishop of Bayeux. This was followed by the degradation of Alexander, Bishop of Lincoln, Egelmar, Bishop of East Anglia, Egelwin, Bishop of Durham, Egelric, Bishop of Sussex, with several other Bishops and Abbots who, as the historian says, were sine culpa. It is now time to introduce to notice one Lanfranc, a monk of Lombard origin, famed for his great know- ledge. This man had, at first, been violently suspec- ted by the Raman Church of heresy; but having made violent protestations of orthodoxy and attach- ment to the apostolical power, the Pope, in order to bind him by the ties of t "atitude, caused him to be proposed as Archbishop of Canterbury. When he arrived to take upon him his official duties "mente contristatus est," the historian expresses it. His church had been burnt, and his altar was in ruins. Lanfranc, no less able tl m AV, Iliiam, followed in his political career a line of conduct exactly resembling that pursued by the Conqueror: like him he was, in the first place, careful to attribute to himself, under s plausible title, a universal and seemingly lawful au- thority. The Church of Canterbury, being the first which had been established in England in connexion with the apostolical see, had given rise to the idea of having a sort of hierarchical primacy attached to it. Now, although there was no foundation for the co- tion in fact, it was sufficient for Lanfranc, and there- fore, although it was nova res, et a tempore quo in Anglia Normanni rnare caeperunt, inaudita, he claimed to be the supreme head of the Church in England for, as he expressed it, sicut Cantia sub- jicitur Romas, ita Eboracum subjicitur Cantise. The true reason for this was, lest, there being two pri- mates, the Archbishop of York, presiding over a part of the country in which rebellions" were springing up every day, might, by force, be compelled to con- secrate some Saxon or Danish chieftain King of England, to the danger of the Conqueror. The new Archbishop of York, not understanding this reason, at first resisted the innovation; Lanfranc's public answer to his remonstrance was, It is well known that all the privileges of your Church were destroyed by fire and abolition" (Jura, combustione atque abolitione quam ecclesia vestra perpessa est, sunt absumpta,) but it was privately hinted to him, that if he persisted in his opposition, he should be de- graded and confined in a dungeon. Lanfranc having thus become ecclesiarum pater, drove away whom- soever he pleased, and put in their places, Normans, French, Lorrainese, and in short, men of every other country but England. From this time the bishop- rics and abbeys and their possessions were employed to pay off the debts of the conquest, and fell to the lot of a set of lawless ruffians, both laymen and ec- clesiastics, whose swords were their only recommen- dation. Nearly all the Norman Bishops, disdaining to live in the ancient capitals of their dioceses, re- moved to others, by which mean Coventry, Lincoln, Chichester, Sherborne, and Thetford, became Epis- copal cities. Violence and rapacity were the order of the day with these cormorants. In one of the abbeys, governed by one Torald, of Feschamp, we read that it was his custom to cry out A moi, mes hommea d' armes" whenever the monks opposed him on any point of ecclesiastical discipline. This degradation of the Saxon, and intrusion of the Norman Bishops, was strongly blamed by Pope Alexander; but by his death, and the accession of Gregory the 7th, the dissentients were silenced, and a few of the Norman Bishops were cited to Rome for the purpose of being confirmed in their appoint- ments by the Pope himself. About the year 1076, Wulfstan, Bishop of Worcester, the last Saxon Pie- late, was cited for degradation to Westminster before Lanfranc and the Council of Norman Bishops, who declared him wholly incapable of exercising the Episcopal functions upon the simple ground (ac- cording to the sentence) that he could not speak French! He was ordered to deliver up his ring and staff; but, burning with indignation, he deliberately walked to the tomb of King Edward et dixit, lingua sua Edwarde Dedisti mihi baculum, et ideo ilium tibi committo, and turning to the Archbishop he ex- claimed melior te, hunc mihi dedit, cui et retrahatn avelle, si poteris. The blow he gave the tomb on uttering these words caused the sacred edifice to re- sound a superstitious panic seized his judges, and the old man was left in quiet possession of his office. We need not eftter into the particulars of making that grand terrier of all the conquered lands, called the Doomsday Book, nor of the subsequent seizing into the hands of the king all the property for which the then holders could not show either a direct grant from, or confirmation by the conqueror himself; and this whether a Saxon, or Norman churchman, or lay- man, was the party in possession. It is not alto- gether unamusing, in perusing this book, to observe the curious meaning attached to the words "invasit; injuste saisivit; injuste dissaisivit; injuste occupa- vit;" &c. scattered through its pages. The original unjust invasion seizing and occupation" of the Saxons' lands is altogether lost iiftht of, and the words quoted only relate to the quarrels and dis- putes of the conquering Normans in dividing the spoils among themselves. Such is the blindness of human nature to moral proprieties when their own interests stand in the way. From this time then is to be dated the foundations of the present ecclesiastical property of this country, for though in the reign of Henry the VIII. nine- tenths of the whole were again seized into the hands of the Crown, and granted out afresh to almost any one that asked, yet, with the various exceptions and additions which we shall notice in a subsequent paper, the same kind of property which formed the provision for the churchmen at that time, still re- mains as the provision for them in the present day. It may not be amiss here to notice that the foun- dation of the jurisdiction of the present ecclesiastical courts, ia to be traced to an ordinance of the Conque- ror, who first separated, and indeed constituted, the two kinds of law under which Englishmen were thenceforth (except during the protectorship of that enlightened, though bigotted man, and vigorous statesman, Oliver Cromwell) continually subject down even to the present day.
