THE Raw. EDWARD MALE, M.A.—Joseph Fish-
wick rented a small farm called 84tonkber.end, in the town-
ship of Rathmell and parish of Oiggleswick, in the diocese
of Ripon. Last week, alter an Shwa or some duration,
Mr. Fishwiek died, and his friends proposed to In er his
remains in the graveyard of Ratbmell Church—the church
of the township in which he had lived. The itcumbret of
that place of worship, however, the Rev. Edward Male,
wrote a letter of refusal, as follows :—" The late J. F. was
not in communion with the church, haying separated him-
self from it by his own act, and having attenifd, if any,
the meetings of a society calling themselves Independents.
Such persons ars declared by the canons of the church of
England' excommunicated ipso
_facto,' that 1., by the simple
fact of their separation ; and in the Prayer B .4 we are
forbidden to use the burial service for any that die excom-
municate. The late J. F. was also notoriously a neglecter
of public worship and the sacraments, and no one
is able to testify of his repentance in these re-
spects. Under these circumstances I do not con-
sider that I can conscientiously read the burial
service over the body, and must, therefore, decline doing
so. I will further add that Rathmell church being a dis-
trict church, in the parish of Oiggleswick, I believe tbat
burial there cannot be claimed by any one, but, at the
same time, I make no objection to the friends of J. F.
laying the corpse there it they think fit; but it must be
without the service of the church." We are in a position
to say, upon the best authority, that the deceased need to
attend the Independent chapel at Settle; that he became
deaf a few years ago, and then discontinued attending.
That he had prayers at home, and, during his last illness,
his friends visited him, and, at his request, joined in prayer
with him. On thine occasions he said, that although he
would only imperfectly hear what his friends said, the feet
6f their joining in prayer with him gave him great consola-
tion and comfort. About a week before he died he was
fully aware that his end was fast approaching, and shorly
before be died he expressed his thankfulness to the Lord
for permitting him to have a knowledge of his position, so
that he might have such &handset time to prepare self
for the great change These facts will be brought under the
notice of the Bishop of Ripon.—Leeds Mercury.
THE COAL OWNERS AT WIGAN have determined
on giving notice to their colliers, there is resson to believe,
of a redaction of wages, is consequence of the de. eased
demand for curl, amounting to 10 per cent., and a reduction
of employment to four days. per week. The workmen are
