THE VACANT DEANERY OP EXETER.

The IVestern Morning News save :—" We believe
we may state that we ace bow in a position to explain the
long delay which has occurred iii filling up the vacant
deanery of Exeter. It will be remembered that just before
the late Dr. Lowe was made dean a controversy arose re-
specting the rival claims of the crown and the bishop to
nominate to this preferment. Ultimately the Bishop" Of
Exeter appointed Dr. Lowe, and an act of parliament
was pawed immediately afterwards vesting this ap-
pointment in the crown. The legislators who framed
the bill trusted, however, too much to the virtues of
a parliamentary statute, for the statutes et Exeter
Cathedral enact that the person selected shall be
member of the chapter. The bishop, who, as all
the world knows, is a tolerably acute lawyer, was aware of
this circumstance, and knew that it must vitiate any ap•
pointment made by the crown, unless it chops to select
member of the chapter. For twenty-two years no °coaxial
site to test the validity of the act, and now for the first
time the government finds that, though the appointment
may be in its hands, the emoluments are not. Dr. Gold-
burn, some time master of Rugby School, then minister of
quebec Chapel, and afterwards the incumbent of a lucrative
living in Paddington, was selected by Lord Palmerston
some four months ago. But the Bishop of Exeter
selected the Right Rev. Dr. 'Dower, formerly Bishop of
Glasgow, and who was lest year appointed Sub-Dean of
Exeter Cathedral, probably with a view to the present con-
tingency. Mere is sow, therefore, • deadlock. The
prune 'Moister, acting under the authority of the act of par-
Lamest, appointed Dr. Goulburo, who may, whenever he
chooses, take legal possession of his dignity, but who is not
likely to do so, inasmuch as it would be a barren one an far
as income is concerned. On the other hand, the bishop of
the diocese has selected Bishop Irower, whose appointment,
however, is sot a valid one according to act of parliament,
hut who is the only person entitled to receive :anything from
the cathedral revenues. Of two such antagonists as Lord
Palmerston and the Bishop of Exeter it would be difficult
to say which will hold oat the longer."

Tait Nsw Fair4cn CORN Law.—The committee
of the legislative body charged to examine the new Corn-
law Bill has presented its report. The following are the
priucipal cheeps introduced by it into the measure
The suppression of the differential &Aim, accnrding to the
place of growth—the tariff becomes uniform without dis-
tinction. 2. The differential duty imposed on foreign ves-
sels has been reduced. 3. Bran and chaff are included
among the articles the import of which is made free. 4.
The duty on foreign flour ham been raisisl from 7be. per 100
kilogramme' to U. b. As regards the 'nowt of nee the
committee has adopted the distinction of its being in straw
or in grain, and fixed a lower duty for the former. A very
important addition has been made by the committee to the
article which declares the abrogation of all contrary laws.
The new clause states that Art. 31 of the law of December
17, 1314, is not applicable to the previsions of the present
one. This amount.. to the declaring that the government
will not have the power of modifying the new law by
decree.
