the great annual holidays, no transactions to a large extent have been

market, which leads us to hope that, on the resumption of business,
teeth operations will be catered into with spirit, and curried out
with profit to all concerned. Stocks of meat kind. of goods are mo-
derate, and money, though not plentifid, can be obtained on fair and
comparatively easy terms. Manchester goods have fully maintained
their favourthle position, while mule twist may be said to have again
slightly improved. Glasgow goods within the last few days have
become very quirt, the demand for holiday Conemmotion having been
supplied. Metals have been is diva demand, but prim are without

THE MASTER OF Sr. CEOS:I.—The Master of St.
Cross, the Rev. Francis North, Earl of Guildford, is the
son of the late Hon. Brownlow North, Bishop of Winchester.
In addition to the above lucrative office, this rev. noble-
man holds a prebendal stall in Winchester cathedral. He
is also Rector of Medstead, Old and New Alresford, and of
St. Mary's, Southampton ; all of which have been held by
his lordship for very many years. No one knows precisely
the income his lordship. derives from the church, for he hat,
we believe, contumaciously defied every ecclesiastical and
civil authority to compel him to return the amount ; all that
is known is that it must be immense. The prebend stall at
Winchester is a valuable one. The lowest estimate of his
income from St. Cross Hospital is 6,000!. or 7,0001. a year.
The tithes of three of the hospital estates were commuted a
few years ago for 2,0001. a year. Four other properties could
be named which are worth 4,0001., a year, and these estates
form nothing like all the hospital property. It has ban
already mentioned that the poor at St. Cross do not cost the
master more than a 1,000!. • year. The rectory of Old Aires-
ford is worth 2,0001. • year ; that of St. Mary's, at South.
ampton, has been estimated by some at 3,0001., by others at
2,6001. a year. The income is derived from tithes, glebe rents,
and fines for the renewal of leases. St. Mary's pariah is
the largest and most populous in Southampton. It contains
nearly 20,1100 inhabitants, and amongst those are the lowest
and most demoralised of the town population. The pariah
church is small and incommodious. A kind of proprietary
chapel was erected a few years ago ; an evangelical or low
church minister preaches in it, and it is always crammed.
The rector opposed its erection, and his opposition would
have been successful if it had not been for the interference of
the present Bishop of Winchester. Dissent is of course in
the ascendant in St. Mary's paiish. Two dissenting chapels
have existed for some time within a few yards of the pariah
church. Another beautiful edifice is now erecting by what
are called the independents. The noble rector of St. Mary's is
of course non-resident, and the salary of the junior curate is
801. a year. The glebe is situated in the heart of the town.
The fence around some portion of it is a foul and stagnant
ditch, an intolerable nuisance to the neighbourhood. The
rector refuses to have it drained or filled in, because, I sup-
o, it would cost money to erect any other kind of fence.
The sanitary authorities of the town have had it partially
cleaned, and they are now squabbling with the rector and
the tenant who rents the glebe as to who shall pay the ex-
pease of such needful cleansing. The glebe is so situated that
it became, owing to the sudden increase and prosperity of
Southampton, most valuable building land. By means of a
recent act of parliament it could have been let out on build-
ing leases, and it would have yielded an immense revenue.
The revenue derived from this source would have made
St. Mary's the richest living in the kingdom, and leave
provided ample funds for the spiritual necessities of the
population, consequent upon future and more liberal arrange.
meats for the parish. Before, however, such land could be
let for building, the rector, according to the act of puha-
meat, must have had plans drawn, made roads footways,
and drains. Now, as this would have been attended with
expense, without an immediate return, the rector, being
advanced in years, refused to do anything that was merely
to benefit his successor—refused to sacrifice pence, when
pounds and hundreds of pounds would have resulted for the
future benefit of the church. The glebe is therefore still a mar-
ket garden. Can any one wonder after this, atthe prevalence
of dement in St. Mary's—that " The Earl" (as he is called)
is unpopular. He is said to be a man of talent, and his ea-
mons—Nih ! who could listen to a sermon from the Master
of St. Cross Hospital, with from 6,0001. to 7,0001. a year—a
non-resident rector, who pockets 2,0001. a year, and gives a
curate 801. per annum 1--0.

FATAL ACCIDENTS ON THE SOUTH WESTERN
RAILWAY.—A collision, attended with fatal consequences,
took place yesterday on the South Western Rallwuy, near the
Richmond station. A ballast engine had been improperly
moved from a siding to the main line, just as the 5.35 emitter
train from London was approaching. The consequence was that
a collision took place, and an unfortunate man, belonging to
the ballast train, and who was riding on the engine, was so ....
jammed among the works that it was impossible to extricate
• alive. All the passengers escaped without a broken
limb, although enteral suffered very severe contusions. Two
of the directors were passengers by the express train. So
far as can at present be ascertained, the moving of the bal-
last engine from the siding appears to have been an net of
the most extraordinary recklessness and incaution on the
parted its driver, as the express train was at the time two or
three minutes overdue, and its arrival must have been
momentarily expected. Both the driver and firemen of the
ballast engine are in custody awaiting an inquiry; and
the company, it is said, are resolved to Investigate
the matter in the fullest manner.—A SEcowo Ao-
CIDENT occurred the preceding evening near the Barns.
station, on the same line. Early yesterday moon-
ing a man was found dead, and leaning against the fencing
near the above atatioa. The body was surrounded by •
large pool of blood, which had flowed from the left leg, to
which the foot was hanging by one tendon only. In the
right hand was a clasp knife, with which it was clear that the
decesswl bad cut away his leather gaiter, prior apparently to
separating the foot altogether • loss of blood was evidently
the cause of death. The body was found to be that of •
hawker, named J.Sharp, who, travelling by the seven o'clock
train on Thursday evening, should have got out at the
Barnes station, but who it is supposed had fallen asleep, and
waking after the train was in motion had alighted, and fallen
under one of the carriages, the wheels of which had passed
over the leg, causing the injury referred to.
