Tiro next visitation to the valuable livinfrof Realism has been deer-
tined for sale. The announcement s hich intimates the intention of
the noble owner to dispose of the next sight of presentation to the
benefice, gives an elaborate description of the advantages of positive
income and moderate duty attached to the living, and also states that
the present Incumbent is 81 years of age. On the 10th of last month
the preferment of the Rev. James Lambert to Seaharn s iceman appeared
in the Daily New*, and a paragraph subsequently was published inmost
of the newspapers highly eulogising the noble patron for bestowing
this valuable living upon a clergyman who Lad arrived at the
=tat age of 84 years, who had been upwards of 30 fen% the
t of a remote living in Yorkshire, of the annual value of
041, and who was personally unknown to the noble patron. The
public will, perhaps, understand the motive of this disinterested act,
when they are informed that it is illegal to sell the prnentation to a
living whilst it is meant, art that the value of the next presentation
is much enhanced when the incumbent is very old. It is also proper
to add that the Tammy wan unexpected, as the late vicar wan only
appointed in 1843.
