It will be seen by an advertisement, that an highly interesting letter to the Bishop of Gloucester has been just published by the Rev.Richard Warner. We are earnestly requested to insert the concluding part of it, which is as follows :
"Viewed, with a reference to her sound and long acknowledged principles, (unsophisticated by the doctrines of some modern divines.) I profess, that my mind can conceive nothing more plain, sedate, or dignified; more beautiful in constitution ; more venerable in external forms; more rational in doctrine; or more amiable in spirit, than the Church of England; -nothing, which (without claiming, for her, ideal infallibility, or impossible perfection) appears to me, to be so exactly adapted to promote the glory of GOD, by her "reasonable worship;" or the virtue and happiness of mankind, by her practical and consolatory tenets. When, like the Patriarch's dove, I venture out, for a moment, upon the wide ocean of conflicting religious opinions, by which she is surrounded; like her, I return, with gladness to our ark, as the only spot of safety, peace, and rest. Here I find something intelligible, convincing, improving; something that satisfies my understanding; affects my heart; and soothes, while" it tries my reins," "searches my spirit," and awes my soul. This preference may, perhaps, he regarded, as the partiality of a son, or the prejudice of a friend; but, whatever it be esteemed, it is a feeling, which, I trust, will continue and keep me faithful to her, to the last moment of my life; and when that shall come to a close, will dictate the same parting wish for her, which the dying father Paul bequeathed to his country-" Esto Perpetua."

The typhus fever now so generally prevalent, we are assured, is prevented, or at all events rendered less malignant by the free admission of fresh air. It is therefore strongly recommended that the windows of every bed-room, in this very unhealthy season, should be left open during the day; and that, in dry weather, the bed and bed clothes, as well as the wearing apparel, should he carried into the open air, and exposed to its salubrious breezes during the day. Washing the floors and white-washing the ceilings are great antidotes to the contagion ; and in case of illness, the greatest cleanliness and the earliest application to medical aid, is the most probable mode of preventing protracted illness.
