A ',tun/root CURATE IN TUE CHURCII or
Rutty —The Rev. Arthur G. Marshall, late curate at Bt.
Machias's Church, in Liverpool, last week wrote two letters
to his Incumbent, the it... Pnilip Mains, one dated January
a, and the other Imam) 4, in the former of which he
Meted that the views he held were Incuegistent with the
spirit of the Church of England, and that, therefore, he
could no longer hold the office of a clergyman, or receive
swages" which be could not oaterienliously earn; and
la the latter informing Mr. limns that since the preceding
day he bad become " • Catholic." Mr. Heine, in reply,
after reviewing the various dogmas of the Church of Rome,
adds It is impossible, utterly impossible, that you
could have arrived at the truth of all them separate doc-
trines in forty-eight hnurs—tbe only ...adagios that I can,
therefore, route to is the you bars been in heart for a long
time what you are now openly—a Rotuieh

dr* a the Marcia and Marchionew of Sligo. Dr.
Calla having delornitad to carry out the decline of the
Westilklalltnelee to the very letter, all efforte to procure a

way shear te reveal the marriage from taking place was
thrown la tile way by the church authorities at hoer and
arr. The lady, however, remained drat, and eventually
the evessay we. solarised by a Pruteetent clergyman.
The decree helm rue praeUally set et nought, it doulelen
strait Dr. Casa sad hie abettors that the next step
on the pen of the merest would be a total

ported pod akin of Maisignor Talbot in the adjustment
fifths delicate dlkedty. " The lapel prohibition of mixed

oe conditios was tatimated on which the atrictrins
of the law might be relaxed—namely, that the whole tinnily
of the next and of all fwure generetions should be given over
'to the en twin tutelage of Rowe. Had the MairqMs of
Sligo submitted to that modest stipulation ha would have
Grand no ob.tecle that a 101. note could nut remove in the
allegation of kindred which wee set up optima his proposed
marriage with the lady on whom he bad placed his affection.,
for her ',later had been united, uy episcopal hands, but a ohort
time befure, to a gentleman who stood premarly in the nave
ratios. Triable lord, however, was firm, and the young
lady, with a spirit and intelligrece which reflected the highest
reedit upon her bringing up, disregarded the flimsy pretext,
and gave her head as freely an it had been asked, without
sbandoeing principle on her aide, or requiring • bees shoe-
gation of ism his.'
THE ACCIDIVITAT THE POLYTECHNIC.—On Bator-

sons Injured by the tote teletuity et the Polytechow Immo-

Oa inquiry at the hoemoil the former steetvent wee fond
to be erronsoue; for, although still remaining fu • vary pre-
carious etate, the report was that the whole of the live
patients mill remeining ehawed symptom. of improvement

It wee imposeible to trot its accuracy, en, although some of
the hler)lebone onmmtining .111,wrs hod received the mho-
motion, they were nut acquainted with the residence of the
party referrvd to. It le quits certaie, however, that there
were many other tomes injured than tame whoa
✓ows hove already become known ; and it treneptred
as &etudes', in the course of inquiry, that there were people
to the London Hospital, Mile Bad-road, who ware injured
by the fell of the *tureen. It appears that, notwithstanding
their _re. impulse wee to get to their hornet.,

where the injuries they hod onstoieed ware dieleivere4 to be
