COURT AND FASHION.

EARS, STANHOPE has signified to the Vice-Chancellor of Ox-
ford University, that it is his intention to give during his life,
and to bequeath at his death, an annual prize of £2O for the
best composition on a Modern History subject.
THE RIGHT HON. SIDNEY HERBERT has been advised by
his medical attendant to abstain from all public business for a
time in order to recruit his health, for which purpose he is now
on a tour in Scotland.

WE have the best authority for contradicting the statement
which has lately been made public, that there is at present
any probability of lineal transmission of the Crown of
France.— The Prees.

THE renowned Countess de Lavalette, daughter of the Mar-
gals de Beauharnais, and cousin-german of Queen Hortense,
died in Paris on the 18th inst. She was the wife of Count de
Lavalette, Postmaster-General under the first empire, whom
she saved from the scaffold, in 1815, by her energy and pre-
sence of mind.

Miss NIGETINGALE.—Mr. C. H. Bracebridge has sent from
Scutari, under date of the 7th, a brief narrative of Miss
Nightingale's labours at Balaklava, and her return to Scutari
in Lord Ward's yacht. At tie • date mentioned she was ex-
tremely weak, but "has no-remains of fever, and no danger is
apprehended." She trusts to be soon able to return to Ba!a-
klava. Miss Nightingale was visited while sick by Lord Raglan
at-the huts, and again on board the yacht,.and was received on
landing at Scutari by Lord W. Panlet, commandant; Dr.
Cumming, inspector-general ' • and. Dr. ArGregor, deputy-
inspector. The house of the chaplain is placed at her disposal,
and she has been offered the use of the British palace at Pera,
by Lord and Lady Stratford de Iledeliffe.

THE QUEEN went on Tuesday to Chatham, to inspect the
invalids at the military barracks. Her Majesty and the
Prince travelled by special train on the South-Eastern Rail-
way to the Strood station, where three of her Majesty's car-
riages were waiting to convey the royal party to Chatham.
The Queen was received by Colonel Eden, commanding the
-garrison, and was conducted over the hospital at Fort Pitt,
and afterwards minutely inspected a large party of invalids
recently returned from the Crimea and the colonies. Her
Majesty then inspected the invalids at Brompton Barracks
and the Casemates, and went over the Marine Hospital.
_Nearly one thousand sick and wounded men were seen by the
Queen, who kindly questioned many of those who had suf-
fered most severely as to the actions in which they had been
wounded, and the nature of their injuries.
OXFORD COIME.MORATION.—On Wednesday, the ERCanlia,
or Commemoration of Founders and Benefactors to the Uni-
versity, took place, according to. annual custom, in the Shel-
donian Theatre. The doors were thrown open soon after ten
o'clock, and in a very short space of time every part of the
theatre was well filled. The upper gallery was crowded with
undergraduates, and the usual outburst of health and spirits
evinced itself. The name of the Queen was received with a
shout loud and hearty. On the arrival of the Chancellor
(Lord Derby), accompanied- by the Vice-Chancellor, heads of
houses, doctors of divinity, law, medicine, and music, the con-
vocation was opened. The Chancellor then read over the
names of the distinguished individuals on whom it was pro-
posed to confer the honorary degree of doctor of civil law, and
as each name was mentioned more or less cheering. followed.
After the list was gone through, the . bedels . retired to the
divinity schools to usher in the proposed doctors, who, headed
by the deputy professor of civil law (Dr. Somerset), walked in
procession across the court leading from the divinity schools
to the
.theatre. The Chancellor put the names for the ap-
proval of the house in the following order, viz.:—The Hon.
James Buchanan, minister of the United States ; Le Comte
de Montalembert ; Sir John Beverley Robinson, Bart.; Lieut.-
General Sir :John Fox Burgoyne, G.C.E.; Lieut.-General Sir
De Lacy Evans, K.C.8.; Sir William Gore Ousels, K.C.8.;

TICE Stamford Mercury relates that a few days ago, at
Nassingion, a woman found 2. swarm of bees, which she shook
into her apron. She thus carried them to her home, a dis-
tance of nearly a mile, and there hived them.

TUE Shrewsbury Chronicle relates that a few days back,
while a man was rolling the cricket ground at Wem, with a
large iron roller weighing upwards of two tons, a child about
five years old, who was riding on it, fell. The roller passed
over the child, who was immediately crushed to death.

DIOCESE OF CHESTER.

OB.D.IIII.TION.—The Bishop of Chester intends to hold his
next Ordination at Chester, on Sunday the 23rd of September
next. Candidates are required to send all their papers to
Charles J. W. Parry, Esquire, Chester, his lordship's secretary,
on or before Monday, the 20th day of August at the latest,
after which day none will be received except under special cir-
cumstances.

CONSECRATION.—The new church at Willaston, in the
parish of Neston, Cheshire, was consecrated by the Bishop
on Thursday, it has been erected especially for the accom-
modation of the inhabitants of the township of Willaston,
who have hitherto had no church within three miles of them.
The church contains 200 sittings, of which 154 are entirely
free and unappropriated. It will be endowed with the tithes
of the township of Willaston by the Rev. R. W. Gleadowe,
the vicar of Nestor', who has given them up for the purpose,
with the consent of the Dean and Chapter of Chester, the
patrons of the living. It is also proposed to raise a fund for
its additional endowment, towards which purpose a handsome
sum has been already collected, and was considerably increased
by a collection made after a sermon by the Bishop on the ceca-
sion of the Consecration. It is proposed forthwith to assign the
township of Willaston as a district to the new church, which,
will then become a distinct incumbency in the patronage of
the Vicar of Neston ; at present it is simply a chapel of ease
to be served by a stipendiary curate. The church is a re-
markably neat and commodious structure, and has been very
substantially built Of stone found in the immediate neigh-
bourhood.

THE Convocation of the prelates and clergy of the province
of Canterbury stands prorogued to Thursday, June 28, not
to Friday, June 29.

SAMUEL Summ has been appointed to succeed the
Ven. Archdeacon Cowper as chaplain to the Australian Agri-
cultural Company, in New South Wales, diocese of Newcastle.
LAST WEEK the daily service at St. Paul's Cathedral, which
has been suspended for some time past inconsequence of repairs,
&c., was resumed, and will take place at ten o'clock in the
morning and half-past two in the afternoon, until further notice.
THE barque Jane Morice, with the Bishop of Natal and
other passengers on board, was in latitude 22 degrees south
and longitude 29 degrees 10 minutes west on the 16th of April
all safe and well.

TILE great and material alterations in the interior of Lan-
caster Church, which have long been in contemplation, are on
the eve of being effected. The whole of those unsightly erec-
tions, the north. north-west, and the organ galleries are to be
removed, and the organ itself, which will receive considerable
additions, will be brought down to within five or six feet from
the floor. •

•
EFFORTS are now making by the Bishop of Sodor and Man
to erect a cathedral chapel at Bishop's Court, Isle of Man, as a
centenary memorial to Bishop Wilson. If the bishop suc-
ceeds in this endeavour, it is further contemplated (as the Manks
Church is at present with difficulty supplied with clergy) to
connect with it a limited staff of deacons to be under training
for the practical work of the ministry, this being Bishop Wilson's
own plan for securing a succession of clergy in this diocese.
For carrying out this desirable object a committee has been
formed, consisting of the Revs. Hugh Stowell, H. Montagu
Villiers, R. Greenall, John Keble, J. J. Hornby, and J. Slade;
Lord Robert Grosvenor, J.. W. Pat' en, M.P., Sir William Page
Wood, Sir William Heathcote, H. Hoare, Esq., and J. Mark-
land, Esq. About £l,OOO has already been subscribed.
WORKMEN engaged in taking down Cu'ford Church, Suf-
folk, in removing one of the monuments from against the east
wall of the chancel, exposed to view a singularly curious and
most interesting relic of church decoration of a very early
period. It would appear from this discovery that the chancel
was part of a Norman church, and had been lighted not only
by the great east window, as it is commonly termed, hut by
two small loop lights, one on either side of it, deeply splaying
in the interior. The recesses or niches thus formed, and now
re-opened, had been decorated by paintings on the plaster and.
stone-work, representing in roundels or medals various inci-
dents from the legendary history of the Romish Church.
Three of these roundels are placed in the head and sides of
each recess, and are for the most part in admirable preserva-
tion, the figures being very distinct and the colours almost as
fresh as when painted in the twelfth century. They _refer
apparently to the history of St. Barbara.
RESTORATION OF PRESTON CIIIIRCH.—On Thursday, this
fine edifice, which has just been rebuilt, was reopened for the
first time for divine service, :when the church was densely
crowded. The mayor and town council attended in their
robes of office. Full cathedral service was performed, and the
sermons, both morning and evening, were preached by the
Rev. William Pollock, M.A. Incumbent of St. Mark's, Liver-
pool. The great object of the Vicar of Preston, the Rev. John
Owen Parr, who was chiefly instrumental in having the old
edifice 'demolished, and the present noble structure erected,
was to do away with the pew system, and throw open the
whole of the seats to the public, to whom he contended they
belonged. In this he has succeeded, due respect having been
had to pew owners who have been fully compensated, and the
town of Preston may now boast of possessing one of the finest
specimens of ecclesiastical architecture in the country. The
new edifice is large enough to accomodate upwards of 3,000
Olsz admirable effect has been produced by the refusal of
Her Majesty's Ministers to grant the usual Royal Letter for
making collections for increasing the funds of the Incorporated
Society for Promoting the Enlargement, Building, and Re-
pairing of Churches and Chapels. On Thursday last, by the
kindness of the Sub-Dean and Chapter of Westminster, a
festival service was performed, with the assistance of portions
of the choirs from the Chapel Royal, St. George's, Windsor,
and St. Paul's Cathedral. The anthems selected were highly
appropriate, beautiful in themselves, and admirably executed.
A powerful sermon was delivered by the Bishop of Oxford,
and a collection made, which, with a gift afterwards contri-
buted, amounted to above £2BO. This is a good starting-
point. In the refusal of the Royal Letter two points are
especially worthy of notice. First, it disregards a promise
made by the Secretary of State, in introducing the act which
incorporated- this society, by which it was to be enabled to
add to its former objects that of repairing dilapidated churches,
and supplying, by its grants, the place of briefs formerly
issued in the name of the Sovereign. Secondly, the Queen
is patron of the society. Yet we have been assured, on excel-
lent authority, that when the late Primate was requested to
appply in the proper quarter for a subscription from .Her Ma-
jesty, his reply was that he had been forbidden to do so.
Have Her Majesty's Ministers, then, prevented the perform-
ance of an act of grace on the part of their royal mistress,
both as regards her private bounty and the exercise of her
privilege to authorise the making of public collections?—
