THE recent Thanksgiving, by whomsoevercomposed, omitted all allusion to the mediation of our Blessed Lord in the con clusion of the prayer ; a fact the more striking when it is re membered that, with the exception of the prayer of St. Chrysostom (addressed to our Lord himself,) all the prayers in the Prayer-book are, in obedience to our Blessed Lord's injunc tion, made in His Name. PROPOSED NEW ENGLISH BISHOPRICS. -- The commis sioners appointed to inquire into the condition of our cathe drals, have recommended to Her Majesty's government the immediate formation of four additional English Bishoprics— one for Westminster, now comprised in the bishopric of Lon don—one for Southwell, now comprised in the bishopric of Lincoln—one for St. Columb, now forming part of the diocese of Exeter, and one for Bristol which is to be independent of the see of Gloucester. It is expected that the Dean of Bristol will have the bishopric of that city, and that Dr. Walker will be appointed bishop of St. Columb, for which see he has pro vided an endowment. _ THE Bailor OF LABITAN.—Her Majesty having been pleased to issue letters patent for the erection of the Island of Labuan into a bishop's see, with jurisdiction over the clergy and congregations of the Church of England in Borneo, a royal mandate has been issued to the Bishop of Calcutta and his suffragans to consecrate the Rev. Francis Thomas M`Dougall, D.C.L., to be the first bishop, and St. Luke's-day, Oct. 15, has been fixed for the consecration. The principal part of the en dowment, £5,000, is provided by the Society for the Propaga tion of the Gospel, out of its public funds, and the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge has granted £2,000. TIIE CLERGY AND THE LATE ARCHDEACON BROOKS. — The following is the address of the clergy, which lies for sig natures at the Savings'•bank :—" We, the undersigned clergy of the town and neighbourhood of Liverpool, desire to convey to the children and family of our late beloved and venerated archdeacon the expression of our deep and affectionate sym pathy with them in their present affliction, and to record our feeling of reverence and attachment to one who ever taught us to regard him as a brother and a friend. Of his eminent qualities as a public man, we do not feel called upon to express oa an opinion—they have been honoured by the teerstlnmogr spi ritual whole community ; but, regarding him as t! household, we cannot but speak of w honour, gentle double the language of St. Paul, and count him ' worthy of d himself a pattern of to all men, patient, in meeknescs. on:itnrgucting those who op. posed themselves, in all things , gravity, sincerity.'

CRIMINAL CHARGE AGAINST THE PROVOST OF LEITH. — A case disgusting in the extreme, has just come to light, tp which no less a personage than the Provost of Leith is el4llll - implicated. The charge brought against the civic dig nitary is a criminal assault upon two girls, both under the age of puberty. He has been examined before the sheriff and procurator fiscal, and on Saturday was admitted to bail. There is no doubt that Provost Phillips will figure rather disagree ably before the criminal court in Novembyr. NARROW ESCAPE.--A few days ago, as Lord Robert Mon tague was sailing in his boat from Portstewart to Portrush a squall of wind caught the boat and upset her. Lord Robert threw himself out of her, and being a very expert swimmer soon managed to regain the boat, and having with some diffi culty prevented the sailor who accornpaniedhim from sinking, he succeeded in getting on the boat, which was now turned bottom upwards. They remained in this perilous situation for nearly half an hour, when they were picked up by a boat which had seen the accident from some distance. OPPOSITION STEAMIIRS ON THE ATLANTlC.—Commodore Vanderbilt, the great American ship-owner, is running steamers across the Atlantic, in opposition to the United States mail packets. Occasionally Vanderbilt's steamer and the mail packet start together, and the speed of the steamers is properly tested. In one instance the Vanderbilt steamer, the North Star, beat the crack American mail packet the Arago. On the 22nd ult., the Arago and the Vanderbilt steamer Ariel left New York at the same hour, both bound for Cowes, in the Isle of Wight. They kept in company for two days, when the Ariel shot adead of the Arago, and the latter saw no more of her. The commander of the Arago, on arriving at Cowes, was surprised to learn that his steamer had beaten the Ariel. PASSENGER TRAFFIC IN LONDON.—About 200,000 per sons enter the city each day on foot by different avenues, and about 15,000 by the river steamers ; and besides the cab, cart, carriage, and waggon traaffic of the streets, the omnibuses alone perform an aggregate of 7,400 daily journeys through the city. The number of passengers arriving at and departing. ‘ from the London -bridge group of railway termini, which in 1850 amounted to 558,000, had in 1854 risen to 10,845,000. At the South Western Railway it appears that during the same period the numbers have increased from 1,228,000 to 3,308,000. The number arriving at and departing from the ' Shoreditch station last year is stated at 2,143,000; Euston square station, 970,000 ; Paddington Station, 1,400,000 ; King's-cross station, 711,000; the Blackwall station, in Fen . church-street, 8,144 000 . A WORK OF TIME.—On one of the hilly moorland meadows, not far from St. Austell Bay, a piece of work is in quiet pro gress under a shed, which the autumn tourists and excursion makers visit. This is the gradual reduction into shape and polish of the huge block of Cornish porphyry which is to serve as a sarcophagus for the remains of the Duke of Wellington. This enormous stone, weighing 70 tons when it was originally detached, and wrought on the spot where it was found, is of a grain so impenetrable as almost to defy the cutter's craft. The sawing of it into halves was a long and painful task, and, the two men now employed in hollowing it out seem given up to the most slow-going task conceivable at the time pre sent, since more than two cannot work, and the impression made by their picks in the huge mass is a thing to be measured from week to week, not day to day. There is ten months' more work to be done ere the adamant rock will be shaped and smoothed into the required form. The colour is of an intense deep gray, mottled with black and pale buff, and , streaked with veins of white.— Cornwall Gazette. OUR WAR TACTICS.—Wo know not how far we may rely upon the assertions of a correspondent of one of the Ameri cans newspapers, but he professes to have heard a conversa tion in the course of which the French Emperor thus expressed himself :—" I acknowledge the tactics of the Crimean cam paign to be my own projectionf and I confess myself satisfied, mainly, with the results. The people of France and Britain want a faat of arms, and perhaps the people of America would applaud another Smoleusko and Moskowa. No : France in 1913 crossed the arid steppes and and deadly snows of Russia. I will now make Russia traverse her own wilderness to meet us on her frontier. There is not a man who enters the Crimea that has not undergone all we suffered in the retreat from Moscow ! There is not a regiment that arrives at Perekop that is not decimated. Whole battalions have been eugulphed. The Russian loss, according to their own estimate rendered to the Emperor Nicholas lat December, amounted to 270,000. The allied troops at that time had not lost one-tenth of that number. lam content to protract the struggle in the Crimea on those terms. THE IRON TRADE.—The making of iron has been on the increase for half-a-century, but since the use of railroads has been so universally adopted, the progress of the trade has been exceedingly rapid, and the quantity made annually very large. At the beginning of the present century the iron produced in England was not 500,000 tons a-year •, it is now upwards of 3,000,000 tons, and the demand is still on the increase. The In ge quantity used for railway purposes will account for the consumption of late years; about 8,000 miles of line having been constructed in this kingdom, 16,000 laid down in America, on the Continent many thousand miles made, and in India, land many other colonies of the British empire, there are up wards of 3,000 miles of line in progress, while in America up wards of 10,000 miles of new line have been sanctioned by the Legislature. These figures sufficiently explain what has been done with the millions of tons that have been used, and also show the iron that will be used for some years to come, Great as is the quantity annually made, it is, therefore, evident it will all be wanted, and the prices be remunerative, except in times of panic from scarcity of money, when iron will be ex pected to be sold at a reduced, probably not a losing, price for a time, like other articles of merchandise.—Mining Journal.
