The Reverend Mr. BP Ghee, the demigod of Exeter Hall, who calls forgery and calumny "ingenious devices," has cried peccavi at last int very humble strain. In a letter to the Committee of the Protestant Association, he begs pardon of Protestants and Catholics, and declares that he meant no harm. He then solicits another opportunity of briog.. big forward important documents, which he declares are not forged; and the simpletons whom he addresses, not content with the exposure they have already undergone, have granted his request. A meeting is summuned for Tuesday next, at Exeter Hall; Mr. Finch again in the chair.

Dr. James H. Todd has confessed himself the forger of the Pope's letter, in a very Jesuitical communication to the Times. He says that he is quite amazed that any body could have supposed the document to be genuine; and intimates that Mr. Finch was a blockhead not to dis- cover the trick. As to his guarantee of its genuineness, he tries to get over it after this fashion- " I certainly said, that if I could explain how the documents came into my hands, no such doubts about its authenticity could exist as might, without suck an explanation, be suggested. Surely this was true ; for, now that it is known how it came into my bands, what doubt exists respecting its authenticity? I added, that I must trust to the sagacity of the reader to discern in it those marks of genuineness, which no fictitious document has ever been found to pos.. sess ;' and to what else but some very extraordinary sagacity in the reader could I trust fur the discovery of that which I certainly was unable to point oat myself." But then, the document in question never did exist—never came into his hands. He was at liberty to explain all the circumstances which he pretended he was bound to conceal. This sort of equivocation won't do, Mr. Todd. A good deal has been said and written about this affair, and it is be- coming stale; but the following squib in the Morning Chronicle—doubt- tless from the pen of Captain Rock, though not with his signature—is still worth reading.

LETTER FROM LARRY &BRAHMAN TO THE REV. MUETAGH &MULLIGAN.

Arrah, where were you, Alurthagh, that beautiful day, Or, bow came it your Riverence was laid on the shelf, When that poor craythur, Bobby, as you were away, Had to make twice as great a Tom- fool of himself.

Truth, it was n't at all civil to have in the lurch

A boy so desarving your tindh'rest affection ;—

Two such iligant Siamese twins of the Church, As Bob and yourself, ne'er should cut the connexion.

If thus in two different directions you pull, 'Faith, they'll swear that yourself and your Riveread brother Are like those quare foxes, in Gregory's Bull,

Whose tails were join'd one way, while they look'd another!'

Och. blessed be he, whosomdever he be, That help'd soft Magee to that Boll of a Letther !

Not even us, Pats, though we sometimes make free

At such bull-manufacture, could make him a betther.

To be sure, when a lad takes toforgin', this way,

'Tis a trick he's much tempted to carry on gayly; Till, at last, his " injanious devices,"f some day, Show him up, not at Exether Hall, but th' Ould Bailey.

That parsons should forge thus, appears mighty odd;

And (as if somethin' " odd" in their names, too, must be) One forger, of ould, was a riverend Dodd,

While a riverend Todd's now his match, to a T.

But, no matther who did it—all blessins betide him,

For disbin' up Bob, in a manner so nate;

And there wanted but you, Muriliagh 'vourneen, beside him, To make the whole grand dish of bull-calf compiate.
