By order. CHAS. A. SAUNDERS, Secretary. London Terminus, Paddington, Jan. 20, 1845, R ICHMOND and .WEST-END JUNCTION RAILWAY. The COMMITTEE of this RAILWAY are happy to announceithat the Board of Trade have declared their intention to report to Parlia ment in favour of the undertaking, as well as of the Staines and Richmond Junction, and the Metropolitan Extensien of the South Won, rn Rahway. Thus the Richmond Company will have access ro an excellent terminus in the metropolis, and also derive a large additional amount of traffic from the line to Statues. Active negotiations are in progress with the landowners and hold ers of property en the 'l.ue for the purchase of the ground necessary fur the purposes of the railway; and in far the majority of cases a highly satisfactory prospect exists of the respective treaties being con cluded upon fair and amicable terms. By an agreement entered into with the Directors of the Fouth- Western Company, the execut on of the most expensive portion of th line originally adopted_by - the Richmond will be transferred to the aforesaid ('ompany ; who hive also agreed to furnish the locomotives, carriages, and working plant of the railway. The terminus of the line will be that selected by the South,Western Company for their metropolitan extension, 'lamely, a point situate in immediate proximity to the entrance of the Hungerford Suspension Bridge, on the Surrey side. The easy nature of the works to be accomplished on their part of the line, which presents no features whatever that can occasion culty or delay in their construction, has enabled the Committee to enter into arrangements, by which the completion of the Whore line will be effected within the period of ten months after the Act shall have been obtained.

Its route, v i a Holy head and Bangor, is that which was favourably reporte d on by the Committee of the House of Commons in 1840, as the best adapted railway communication between Lon don and Dublin. An agreement has been entered into with the Government to convey the mails for five years from the opening of the line, at the rate of 30,0001. per annum, and for a further term of seven years at the same sum, as a maximum. The length of the line v ill be 84 miles ; but at present Parliamentary powers have been obtained for only 80 miles, the Company having de ferred to the desire of the Government that the Bangor portion of the line, a pproaching the straits, together with the passage over the straits, should stand in abeyance for the present. It will be completed in three years from b its commencement.—Charter Courant. THE BISIPOP OF NORWICH AND MR. WODEHOUSE. The correspondence between the Bishop of Nor wich and Mr. Wodehouse appears to us particularly worthy of attention, as calculated to remind the mem bers of the Oxford Convocation that a measure, almost the very reverse of that preposed to them, is at this moment required. A clergyman of the diocese of Norwich, entertaining some scruples as to sub scription, and being unable, after the endeavour of many years, to ascertain what is the received inter pretation of the Church with respect to it, at length tenders the resignation of his preferment to the bishop of the diocese. The bishop refuses to accept the resignation, and plainly states h's reasoes, as will be seen in his letter. Unless we are to believe the statement of a Contem porary, that the proposed new test is abandoned, the members of the Oxford Convocation are invited to decree, first, that subscription to the Thirty-nine Articles and thirty-sixth canon is hereafter to be made " according to the sense of those who origi nally promulgated them." Let them refer to the points which have occasioned Mr. Wodehouse's difficulties, and say whether they do not, many of them, require and exercise such a latitude as Mr. Wodehouse requires, and the Bishop of Norwich declares to be fully justifiable. Let them next con sider whether they alre prepared to assert that our Reformers and he clergy of 1603 held the seine views, and would have assented to the like latitude. And are there not other points of which clergymen of every shade of opinion feel that they must exercise some latitude in sub scribing ; and has not the course of ecclesiastical discussion since 1562 secured to them this liberty by gradually proving its necessity? The members of the Oxford Convocation are invited also to a de cree, secondly, that subscription shall hereafter he made " according to that sense which that sub scriber believes is now proposed by the Uni versity." Is it possible that a body of well edu cated churchmen can thus identify 1562 and 1845, can forget the history of three centuries, and concede to, they know not whom, the power of abso lutely interpreting our national religious tests ? Without stopping to consider how far such a con cession would be illegal, we would rather invite their attention to the extreme imprudence of such a step, the exclusive purpose of which cannot be mistaken. Let them review the last few years at Oxford, and ask—whose turn will come next? He who places arbitrary power in the hands of another, at best can only look upon himself as the last to feel its severity. Never was there a time when it was more needful to bear in mind one great object of a nati final Church, namely, to provide for the people such a form of doctrine and worship as shall conciliate to itself the largest possible number of Christians without sacrifice of truth. What we want is com prehension, and not exclusion. Too long has the policy of the clerical body been prompt to exclude, instead of skilful to reclaim energy and talent from error, and to guide them to profitable exertion for the good of the people. The leading fact of the Reformation is, that it invited all men to seek the truth, each for himself; that it sought to place the Bible in the hands of all; and to induce them to appeal to it as a confirmation of the voice of their pastors. The necessary conse quence of such principles is free religious discussion. Nearly three centuries of differences amongst Eng lish Churchmen prove that even articles of faith cannot prevent diversity of opinion. The obvious duty of the national Church is to sanction what it cannot prevent ; to render such differences no longer disreputable ; to relax religious tests, instead of rendering them more stringent; to aim at an agree ment in essentials, and an acceptable uniformity of worship; to range differences on other points under the harmless title of free discussions ; to leave men at liberty to argue, for argue they will, secure that truth thus treated will ultimately prevail ; to seek, in short, for union in great truths, and in public wor ship, on which the peace and improvement of society depend. In contending for the necessity of allowing a latitude of interpretation we shall not be under stood as waintaining that Roman Catholics and Pro testa.nts can be comprehended within the same reli gious organisation. Nothing but discord and weak. ness could come of an attempt to treat fundamental differences as if they were of secondary moment. Men cannot, with any sort of profit or propriety, associate together for religious worship, if they deem each other to be in fatal error upon almost every important tenet. The latitude of interpreta tion, therefore, which honest churchmen exercise, and have always exercised, in respect to creeds and formularies, is such a latitude as consists, in the words of the Bishop of Norwich, with a "sincere attachment to the general doctrines of the Church." It being impossible that a real agreement should exist upon the numerous and com plex propositions to which assent is formally given by subscripti on , th ere i s no ot h er pr i nc i ple upon which honest men, having the least shadow of doubt, can remain in the Church, except this one of agreement with its main doctrines and system. Some men of nice consciences, like Mr. Wodehouse, do not feel that this view of the case removes their scruples ; whilst others, assuredly not less conscien tious, like Dr. Arnold, have rested on it with entire assurance and satisfa stion. Dr. Arnold was as far from agreeing with the damnatory clauses of the Athanasian Creed as Mr. Wodehouse ; but his dissent from the established formularies on that and some other points did not prevent a sincere, or we should rather say a passionate, attachment to the Church as a whole. That such diversities were ne- cessary was maintained by Dr. Arnold on the strongest grounds. Otherwise, said he, the Church could receive into its ministry " only men of dull minds or dull consciences; of dull, nay almost of dishonest minds, if they can persuade themselves that they actually agree in any great number of human propositions ; of dull consciences, if exer cising their minds freely, and yet believing that the Church requires the total adhesion of the un- derstanding, they still, for considerations of their own convenience, enter into the ministry in her de spite." (" Life of Arnold," vol. 2, p. 173). The obvious objection that the latitude here contended for made the degree of adhesion required indefinite, he met by the distinction to which we have re ferred. He said that things thus left seemingly so indefinite, " are not really so to an honest and sen sible mind; for such a mind knows whether it is really in sympathy with the Church in its main faith and feeling ; and if it be not, then subscription would indeed be deceitful." But diversities justifiable on this principle have evidently nothing in common with those which should be permitted in order to include men holding Roman Catholic opinions. If a man considers the general course of the Protestant Reformation to have been criminal, the separation from the communion of Rome to he a grievous national sin, and looks to the Church of Rome with undisguised admiration as the perfect model of what a Church should be both in doctrine and in discipline, he surely cannot be supposed, by any stretch of imagination, to be in sympathy with the English Church in " its main faith awl feelings." We do not say that a man of this sort is dishonest for remaining an officer of the Church of England, but assuredly his conduct is calculated to excite most vehement suspicion. The connexion of Mr. Ward's case with a proposition for seriously restricting the liberty of thought and discussion hitherto enjoyed in the English Church, makes it necessary to insist on the difference between the principles of interpreta tion for which that gentleman and his party con tend, and those which meet the case of men like Dr. Arnold and Mr. Wodehouse. But if we feel obliged to condemn Mr. Ward, it does not follow that we should look with approval upon the mode in which it is proposed to punish him. We cannot think that the Oxford Convocation is a proper body to deal with such a case. Mr. Ward's offence is evidently one for the cognisance of an ecclesiastical tribunal. The University can only punish him as the holder of an academical degree; but in receiving ordination he has been invested with a much higher responsibility thin any that can attach to him merely as a master of arts. It is the clerical far more th an th e aca . . demical character which gives gravitii;hl; - fauli; and it is in the highest degree absurd and ano malous that a lay body should step in before any ec clesiastical authority to punish heresy in one of the clergy. Those who remember the case of Dr. Hamp den will not require much argument to prove the un fitness of a heterogeneous assemblage like the Convo cation for deciding on theological questions. It would, no doubt, be a signal instance of retribution if Convocation should now degrade a member of the party which some years ago worked up a prejudiced and passionate majority of the same body against Dr. Hampden ; but we do not like to see a power so liable to abuse exercised under any circumstances whatever. If Mr. Ward cannot be punished other wise than by what has been not untruly called mob law, it is better that he should go free. A single vio lation of the principles of justice and fair-play, if countenanced and supported, is certain to be the pa rent of many more.—Chronicle. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. AMALGAMATION OF THE BIRMINGHAM AND GLOUCESTER, AND BRISTOL AND GLOUCESTER LINES. BIRMINGHAM, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—A meeting of the Shareholders in the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway was held this afternoon at the Company's offices, in Lawley-street, "to authorise the guarantee of 5 pr cent., offered by the Directors to parties taking shares in the proposed line to Wolverhampton ; to authorise the raising of additional capital for the works ; and the immediate consolidation of the capital of the Company with that of the Bristol and Gloucester Rail way Company." There was a good attendance of Shareholders. Mr. SAMUEL BOWLES'', Chairman of the Board of Dir2ctors, presided, and said that at the last meeting it was left in the power of the Directors to alter the terms on which the additional capital should be raised, if they saw a necessity. That necessity had arisen ; they found that the withdrawal of the guarantee would hinder them from getting out their shares, and after due considera tion they had agreed to the terms proposed in the ad vertisement. He, therefore, moved t'he resolution autho rising the guarantee of 5 per cent. to parties taking shares in the Wolverhampton line. Mr. LOVE seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN then moved the next resolution. Mr. C. B. FRIPP (of Bristol), seconded the resolution, which was also passed unanimously. Mr. -Sleatv, , fat reply to Mr. Love, said the shares were to be allotted "as the Directors might think proper." The CHAIRMAN said the object of the Directors had been to give the preference to the Proprietors of the present line. The CHAIRMAN, in reply to Mr. Love, who wished to know the amount of additional capital required, said there was a great deal embraced under the present ar rangements of the Board. There were the deviation lines, as well as the main line to Wolverhampton. Then the question arose whether the money to come back from the Great Western Company would pay the cost of the deviation lines. He was afraid they could not give any definite calculation as to the amount required. The estimate, as far as Mr. Hughes and Mr. Baylis, the surveyors, could calculate, was 742,7671. 12,546 shares had been allotted, but the Directors were not exactly in a position to say that all that number had been accepted. The shares allotted would amount to about 600,0001. They were anxieus to reserve some of the shares for the landowners through whose estates the line would pass. 200.0001., in addition to the 600,000/. allotted, would cover the probable cost of the pro posed works. The CHAIRMAN said the next question for the consi deration of the meeting was the amalgamation with the Bristol and Gloucester Company. The SECRETARY then read the agreement, the sub stance of which was given in The Sun of last week. The CHAIRMAN said he was very much inclined to be lieve that there would be very little d.fference of opi nion as to the policy of amalgamating the Company with those who were naturally their allies. The Bristol and Gloucester line had not long been opened before the Di rectors of this Company were made aware of the prac tical disadvantages of working as two separate and in dependent companies. With regard to the terms upon which the amalgamation was proposed to be made, that was a different matter. But, supposing those terms to be fair and reasonable, there could not be two opinions as to the desirableness of the step. With regard to the rates of carriage, and the carrying trade generally, the want of uniformity must militate very much against the interests of all parties. After a few more observa tions, he moved a resolution, authorising the consolida tion of the two companies. Mr. HALL seconded the motion. Mr. C. B. FRIPP, Director of the Bristol and Glouces ter, thought that the beard had quite overlooked the in terests of the Company in the grand end of amalgama tion. That the line between Birmingham and Bristol should have originally been one line, no one could deny ; and on fair and equitable terms amalgamation now would be advantageous to both Companies. But were the pro posed terms fair? With respect to the share capital of the Company, the Bristol and Gloucester were placed on an exact par with the Birmingham and Gloucester Com pany. The Birmingham and Gloucester Company had been struggling for three year:, and had at last succeeded in working out a dividend of at must from 4 to 4} per cent. Was it wise then for them to amalgainate with a Company which had not yet published a single state meat of ietffic? IV - teen the - Birmmerarn and Gloucester Railway opened, there was a long line of coach road to the west. When the Bristol and Gloucester Company commenced operations the Great Western was opened to Exeter, and there was a direct railway communication as far north as Preston. The first half-year's returns, then, would not have formed an unfavourable test of the capabilities of the line as far as passenger traffic was concerned. It was not fair to put that Company on a par with their own. Looking at the matter as an open question, he considered the terms laid down in the agreement to be widely prejudicial to the Birmingham and Gloucester Company. The great object of the amalgamation was to ensure a more rapid transit of passengers. He could see nothing to effect that object, unless the same gauge was adopted through out the line. It must be altered. He should be decidedly against extending the broad gauge to Birmingham. He called upon the Directors explicitly to state that the narrow gauge would be carried through from Gloucester to Bristol. Mr. JOSEPH STURGE thought the terms were rather to the advantage of the Bristol Company, but the advan tages of an amalgamation were so great that he hoped no opposition would be made to the proposal of the Directors. He did not exactly understand that Bristol and Gloucester stock was in the same position as Bir mingham and Gloucester stock. He supported the original motion. The CHAIRMAN—If the line pays 5 per ceut., then there will be 5 per cent. paid on 1001. Birmingham, and 5 per cent. on 87/. ss. Bristol. Mr. STcItGE said that put a little different feature on the matter; and although the st ick of the Bristol Com pany was very much increased, and the stock of the Birmingham Company remained the same, looking at the mileage, there was nothing very unfair in that. He most cordially supported the original motion. The resolution was ultimately adopted nem. con. BOLTON, WIGAN, AND LIVERPOOL.-011 Monday, meeting was held at Bolton, with reference to the pro posed line from Bolton, through Wigan to Liverpool. The Mayor, Mr. J. Slater, presided, and enlarged on the importance of having in connection with the district a direct railway communication from the eastern to the western shores of England. In his opinion, they ought not to lose the present opportunity of obtaining oils, tallow, Baltic timber, &c., direct front llull. Bolton had neglected the canals ; they must not neglect the rail ways. By means of the proposed line, Bolton would have a better and cheaper supply of coals than it had at present. By the projected line they could have their cot ton, tallow, &c., direct from Liverpool, which to Bolton, with its 70,000 inhabitants, was a matter of great im portance. A memorial, very numerously signed by all parties in the town, had already been sent up to the Board of Trade, and he had received a letter acknow ledging its receipt. Mr. Alderman Magnall thought that if Bolton neglected the present opportunity of securing an improved communication with Liverpool, they would be much to blame. Robert Knowles, E , q., then mov e d . . . . . . " That it is the opinion of the meeting that the present railway and canal communication is inadequate to the wants of the people of Bolton and the neighbour hood." The present railway was insufficient for the carriage of goods. The resolution was car ried unanimously. Mr. Henry Ashworth moved the second resolution, and stated that the proposed line would afford the means of communication with Wigan, Hindley, Bolton, Bury, Heywood, Rochdale, &c., em bracing a population of about 300,000—a fact which established the desirability of the undertaking. He concluded by moving that the proposed line from Liver pool to Wigan and Bolton, with extension to Bury and Heywood, was admirably adapted to supply the defi ciencies of railway communication. R. Heywood, Esq., seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. Mr. P. Ainsworth, M.P. for the borough, said, that as all railway projects were now left to a Committee of the Board of Trade for examination, he felt at a loss how to advise the meeting as to the best course to be followed in support of the proposed line. The Committee were in deliberation, and would, most likely, eventually come into Lancashire, to see what lines were best calculated to promote the public good. If the decisions already given were to be taken as a criterion of the course they in tended to pursue, it would be impossible to say what i might be the fate of the various line s no w proposed n different parts of the country. A deputation,p tedto waitconsisting of the mayor and Mr. Ainsworth, w Board Liverpool,of u Darhishere oi said th e uponan the ches ter and powerful bodies, were opposed to the proposed line, because they wanted a monopoly ; but he trusted that the interests of the coommunity would have a greater weight with the Board of Trade than those of private speculators. Mr. Ainsworth said, that so long as the railways were under the control of the Board of Trade, he did not think that any great monopolies would be encouraged. If the:present line were rejected, he line)doubted cal not upon otthat theth they Manchester t(ears andin the Liverpooleas e o c of th o e m D p o a v n e y r to make a better communicati on with Bolton than was aff G or tt d A e N d D by juthNecTplroeN AND sentline. LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM.— During the latter p art o f last weekit was currently re ported that the good understanding between these two Companies had again been interrupted, and that they were once more in a state of hostility to each other. The report pr3duced a very injurious effect on the shares of both, and spread great alarm amongst the Shareholders. We are glad t ) learn, however, that an official communication was yesterday made by Mr. Moss, the chairman of the Grand Junction, to the chairman of the Liverpool Sharebrokers Association, to the effect that no difference had o,leurred, or wa likely to occur, between the two Companies. etve reason to be lieve that nslight ini- , mg did exist for a short tune, but that it was entirely founded in error, and was immediately removed by a frank end candid explarta tir;Te—Lieerpeol TitaCS. LONDON AND YORK.—On Monday a meeting was held at Doncaster to take into consideration the projected lines, in so far as they affect the interests of the borough, and to memoralise the Board of Trade thereon. The Mayor, Mr. J. E. Morey, presided, supported by Sir Isaac Morley, Sir Joseph Copley, Mr. E. B. Denison, M.l'., Mr. J. Parker, M.P., and other gentlemen con nected with the district. Messrs. Slarke, Easton, and Sharpe appeared as a deputation from Gainsborough, in favour of the Midland Counties Extension. The Mayor, in opening the proceedings, explained that the chief re quisite for a line to Doncaster was, that they must have a main line, with a permanent station, and that it must not pass the high road on a level. They had memorialized the Board of Trade against the London and York, be cause it left Doncaster ten miles to the east. Mr. Walker proposed a reselut:on in favour of the London and York, conceiving that the adoption of that line would make Doncaster once more the highway between Edinburgh and London. He contended that the Midland Counties Extension would neither give facilities to, nor improve . the trade of Doncaster. Mr. Milner seconded this. Sir Isaac Morley spoke in favour of the Midland Counties Extension, but advised the meeting not to give a pledge to any particul ar li ne . H e moved anamendment, second ed by Mr. Pric e , th at every l i ne that came direct to Don caster, and had a station there, would be for the interest of the town. Mr. Denison, M.P., entered into a variety of statements with respect to the London and York, and concluded by calling on the meeting to support the reso lution in its favour, which was eventually carried over the amendment, by a large majority. A deputation was appointed to communicate the resolution to the Board „ of Trade. MANCHESTER, BURY, AND ROSSENDALE..—On Mon day the half-yearly general meeting of the Proprietori was held at Bury. Mr. J. Grundy, Chairman of the Board of Directors, presiding, when the report of the Directors, describing the progress of the works, and giving a statement of the accounts, was received and adopted. The Chairman congratulated the Proprietors on the improved position of the Company's affairs. At the extraordinary general meeting, which followed im mediately after, the Directors submitted a report relative to the proposed Heywood branch in connexion with the Manchester, Bury, and Rossendale. Resolutions were passed unanimously in favour of an application to Par liament for power to construct it, and to raise the neces sary capital. The Chairman announced that satisfac tory arrangements had been entered into for the amalgamation with the Manchester and Rossendale of the Blackburn, Burnley, and Accrington line. The out lay on the Heywood branch would be between 60,0001. and 70.0001. NEW ZEALAND COMPANY. A General Court of the Proprietors of this Company was held yesterday, at tie Company's offices, Newßroad• street-buildings. The following Directors were pre sent:—Sir John PiHe, Bart., Alex. Currie, Esq.. Stewart Majoribanks, Esq., Captain Nairne, Jeremiah Pi!cher, Esq., J. H. Gower, Esq., Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid, Bart., G. F. Young, Esq,, Joseph Somes, Esq., M.P. The chair was taken by Joseph Somes, Esq., M.P., the Governor of the Company. The CHAIRMAN said, in reference to the smallness of the attendance, that it was to be attributed to the fact of its being understood to be the intention of the Directors to move an adjournment. The Secretary would read the notice of the meeting, and the report, and no obser vations would be made. The SECRETARY N Y e t w h e e r a e l a a d n d t following House, 23d d notice jan., 18 : 4 - 5. " Sir,—l am instructed to inform you that at the General Court of Proprietors of the New Zealand Com pany, to be held on Thursday next, it is the intention of the Directors to recommend an adjournment. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, " T. C. HARINGTON, Secretary." The SECRETARY then read the following Report:— " In consequence of the brief correspondence between Lord Stanley and your Governor, which has taken place since the advertisement calling this meeting was issued, and which will now be read to you, we recommend you to adjourn for a fortnight, and to abstain from asking us to lay before you to-day a statement of the condition tf your affairs, which would be devoid of information as to the views entertained by her Majesty's Government, in consequence of the Report of the Select Committee of the House of Commons. "It is with much regret that we revert to a system of repeated adjournments; but the present critical state of the Company calls for this exercise of a power conferred on you for occasions requiring more frequent communi cation between the Proprietors and Directors than is compatible with the length of notice on original meetings. New Zealand House, Broad-street Buildings, • 30th January, 1845. " MR. SOMES TO LORD STANLEY. " New Zealand House, Jan. 20, 1845. " My Lord,—Feeling that the time has arrived when it is indispensable that the Directors of the New Zealand Company should decide upon their future course of pro ceedings, we have deemed it right to summon'a meeting of the Proprietors to be held on the 30th instant, for the purpose of taking into consideration the affairs of the Company, and of adopting such measures as may be thereupon deemed expedient.' j "TO . enable the Proprietors to arrive at a conclusion neon this question, we beg to represent to your Lord ship the importance of their being put in possession, as far as may be practicable, of the intentions of her Ma jesty's Government.

On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, the meeting then adjourned until the 13th of February. CONSECRATION OF ST. JOHN'S CHURCH, NOTTING-HILL. This new church was consecrated on Wednesday by the Lord Bishop of London. Besides his Lordship, there were present a great number of clergymen, among them the Venerable Archdeacon Sinclair, the incumbent of the district ; the Rev. Mr. llouldsworth ; the Rev. Mr. Dalt , :n, Chaplain of the Hon. Society of Lincoln's Inn ; the Rev. 11. H. Milman, &c. The consecration service was in the usual form, and the Archdeacon read the prayers. 'The sermon of the Bishop, who preached on the occasion, was rather of a practical than a doctrinal nature. It inculcated the necessity of enabling the Church to keep pace with the wants of an increasing po pulation ; and insisted on the propriety of making the house of God accessible to all classes of the community. The Right Rev. Prelate then adverted to the occasion for which they were assembled, and stating that those whe had the management of the edifice had, in their zeal for religion, exceeded their means, he appealed in forcible terms to the congregation, of all ranks and conditions, to come forward in aid of the good work. His Lordship concluded his sermon by observing that, according to the ancient usage of the Church, the collection for the pur pose would be made during the offertory. The church is early Norman in its architecture, and it presents a pleasing specimen of the manner prevalent at the period of the first introduction of that style into English ecclesiastical edifices. It consists of a nave and two aisles, with short transepts and a channel. The roof is an open one of timber, and very light and elegant, springing from arches supported by massive circular pil lars of Caen stone. The interior is plain, and dwarf seats, with doors at either extremity, occupy the floor of the church. The exterior is lofty and handsome, being built of rough-cut limestone, dressed at the doors and nin c d h o a i r v a s c w te i r th with Caenasntonecee;liit,siparsetsiecal e presents features difice. of The s sire,olidpit) in his composed alt oget h er o f Caen remarkably good effect.

The church was crowded throughout the service. SUICIDE BY A MEDICAL MAN.—Wednesday Mr. Carter, coroner for East Surrey, held an inquest on the body of Mr. George Youd, aged thirty-six, assistant to Mr. Taylor, surgeon, 37, Harleyford-place, Kennington oval, who on Sunday night last committed suicide, in bed, by swallowing prussic acid. The evidence esta blished the fact that deceased was not right in his mind, and the jury consequently returned a verdict of " Tem porary Insanity."
