THE BISHOPRIC OF OXFORD.

_
The R-v. ho Fielder Mackarness, who has been
nominated to the Ihthopric of Oxford on the appoint-
meat of Dr. Wilherfoice to the see of tVwchester,
was educated at Merton College, and took his B.A.
degree in 1843, is which year he was ordained by the
lisp whom he now succeeds. He was presented,
in 1845, with the living of Tardebigge, near Broms-
grove, which he held for ten years, when he was pre-
sented to the reet iry of Honiton by the Earl i 4 Devon,
and this living he holds at the present time. He
obtained a prebendal stall at Exeter in the year 1858.
The see . 4 Oxford has an annual income of £5 000.
Dr. Maekarcess belongs to the moderately High
Church party.
The formal translation of the Bishop of Oxford to
Winchester will not, it is understood, take place until
the latter part of November, his lordship being de
air ma of holding a visitation his clergy prior to his
resignation. It will last about a fortnight, and most
of the piiiieipal towns of the diocese will be visited.
Dr. Wilberforce was born in 1805, and is consequently
64 years of age. He was consecrated Bishop of
Oxford in 1845. The see of Winchester is worth
£10,500 a year.

FATAL FRACAS IN MORAVIA.

_
An act of disgraceful ferocity has just caused excite-
ment at Brunn (Moravia). On the 25th September the
people were returning from the races, and a consider-
able crowd had collected before the Nenhanser Hotel.
Among the spectators WA M. Muller with his wife and
chill They were close to the principal entrance to the
building when Count Henry Hornspech, drove up.
Miller's child was in the count's way as he descended
from his carriage, and the count struck him in the face
, with a whip. As the father came to his son's defence,
the count said, "Be quiet, clodhopper, or I will strike
you." An instant after the rep irt of a pistol was
heard, and Muller fell, struck by a hall which had pene-
trated the head, entering beneath the left eye. The
furious crowd immediately prepared to infliot Lynch
law on the aggressor. and the count was with difficulty
rescued from its hands and conducted to prison. Hopes
are entertained that Muller's wound williaot prove fatal,
but he will probably lose his eye.

market, speculating as to the advisability of buying a pig.
After asking the price of One or two, she turned round
and addressed Mrs. Connor, whom she had never before
seen, telling her that she thought pigs were very dear,

KIDDERMINSTER.

A BEANE REVISION Count—Tuesday lest was the day
fixed for the revision of the burgess list, and the Mayors
(Mr. Cowen) and the Assessors (Messrs. Southall and
Larr) attended at the Guildhall. in pursuance of the no•
titre which had been iesued. There had not been a single
claim or objection made, so that the coining together of
the officiate uatuilly charge I with the revision was purely
formal this year. Mr. Mllnes, on behalf of the Oyer.
seers and itliWillOrg, presented the Mayor with a pair of
white kid gloves, to mark the exceptional character of
the " revision." The Mayor acknowledged the gift, and
every one went away, no doubt very well satisfied that
the duties of the day were so easily got through.
THE LATE 51.7P1C1,418 DEATH.—Mr. Docker resumed
the inquiry into the death of Mary Ann Wilks, on Tlle••
• a/1y afternoon, at the It febnek ion. It will be rem, ni•
tiered that the iuqueat was adjourned in order that a po4t
rnorteas examination might be made of the body. Mr.
W. Cowen, surgeon, was examined, and described the
appearances deceased's body presented. Her heart was
very much enlarged, and there was severe inflammation
of the bowels, resulting from her late delivery eta child.
'there was quite sufficient to account for death from nit
-
Ural Causes. No trace cf poison was to be found in the
body. The duly expressed themselves satisfied with the
medico! evidence, and thought it unto cessary to pursue
the inquiry further. A verdict was then returned that
the deceased died from natural causes.
