Sr. Gaoaoes-IN-rag-E.sr. —An arrangement
which has been for some time past is program for an ex.
change, by the Rev. Bryan King. with a clergyman in Wilt-
shire, has at length been carried out, and the Priocipel
and Fellows of Brassinase College,Oxford, the patrons of the
living, have agreed that the Rev. John Lockhart Rosa,
M.A., shall be rector of St. George's-in-the-Fast, while
the Lord Chancellor has consented to the institution of the
Rev. Bryan King to the vicarage of Avebury, near Merl-
borough. The new rector of St. George's-in-the-Ewa, who
will probably miter upon his duties in that pariah next
Standup, was educatedndup, at Oriel College, Oxford,where he
graduated in 1833. but his name does not appear in the list
of honours. Having held some clerical appointments in the
diocese of Cheater, by the bishop of which (D. J. Bird
Sumner) he was ordained, he was appointed in 1840 to
the vice-priocipalship of the Theological College at Chi-
chester, and this poet he held until 1852, when Lord St.
loonaras, who was then Lord Chancellor, presented hun to
Avehury. He is the author of a work on" The Reciprocal
Obligations of the Church and the Civil Power,' sod
has written an interesting description of the Druidical
temples at Avebury. He is also the author of several
theological works. He is described by them who are ac-
quainted with him as a gentleman of ria media views, with
no extravagant predilections for " church millinery" or
extreme ritualism.

THE CHRYSANTHEMUMS IN THE Tiimei.s.—Es-
toilers preparations us being made in the Temple-prams
by Mr. Broome for hie annual display of chrysanthemums,
which promise to exceed those of any former your in sire
and beauty. Awnings have been placed aloog the sides of
the gardens for the protection of the flowers, and • path-
way will be formed for Milton, so that they will have ample
time to inspect the whole of the specimens without incoo-
mini/ace. Main person, inspected the flowers yesterday.
but it has tot yet beet) decided whoa the gardens will be
thrown open to the public.
THE FARTHINGALE AND THE HOOP PETTICOAT.
—Under this title Mr. K Philpott, of Piccadilly, has pub-
lished • very amusing historical account of the farthingale
sad hnop petticoat. The brochure is, indeed. a story in
brief of the eccentric chances of petticoat fashion from the
days of Queen Elizabeth to those of Queen Victoria, Mr.
Philpott has explored the treasures of the British Museum,
and be has ransacked files of old newspapers. He confines
I himself to the history of the hoop from the time of Queen
Elisabeth ; but be gives • glance into a remote anti-
quity, declaring that we have it confidently stated that
Semiramis wore a stiffened petticoat. and that the Queen
of Sheba listened to the wisdom of King Solomon arrayed
in • hoop "full five yards in circumference." Perhaps the
swathings of the mummies are in reality only compressed
a/Moline. He is earnest in his assurances of the immor-
tality of the hoop. "It has been suppressed by law, than.
dered at from the pulpit, and ridiculed in every manner the
bitterest satirist could invest." But it lives, and will lies.
He collects some pleasant anecdotes, arch illustrates them
by some clever woodcuts.
THE LEITRIM AFFAIR.—TIIO magistrates of the
Clasher petty sessions have shown their condemnation of
the recent insult to his Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant by
refusing to renew the license to King, proprietor of the
Meant HoteL Every right-minded person will rejoice to
learn that onnishmeut has so quickly followed the outrage
upon her Majesty's repremstative.—Ge/sety Express.
