Claremont, April 4, 1850.
In every other reepect, except Lord John 1111111•11'11vii-k,
the Easter holidays in this neighbonrhood have passed over
without any very distineuishieg event.
The exhibition of 1861 appears to be commanding more
attention I. the neighbouring towns than it has yet done ; and
Mr. Hepworth Dixon has held a large and influential meet-
log in Boitoe, besides meetings held at Bradford, Stockport,
and other places. The meeting at Bolton was held on Wednes-
day, and was attended by the VIM', by Mr. Blair, mare(
tt e members fee the borough, by Mr. Ainsworth, one of the
la's members, Mr. P. Martin, and Mr. Edniend Ashworth.
county magistrates, Dr. Black, and other influential parson,.
Tee Bolton Chronicle says Owing to the particu-
larly unfavourable state of the weather, the attendance
of the clam for whom the meeting was principally in-
tended—the working men—was less snmeroas than
it otherwise would have been ; bat the intelligent
countenances of those present, the close attention given by
them to Mr. Hepworth Dixon's able exposition of the
objects and advantages of the magnilioent *chews they had
assembled to consider, the discriminating applause and
valuable 'aerations they gave, evinced in the meet golly y -
lag manner that the very elite of the order was there. In-
deed, when we look at the cordial unanimity which pre-
vailed, the marked attention with which Mr. Dixon's
really intellectual explanations were received, the handsome

list of subscriptions announced, the prompt ind substantial
response which was given to the suggestion for aiding persons
of ingenuity but limited means in working out designs of ar-
ticles for exhibition, and the hearty support tendered to the
great project on every hand, we must regard the meeting, in
the most enlarged sense, as eminently sucoeseful." A vote
of thanks was given to Mr. He worth Dixon, and a sub-
scription was commenced in aid of the Exhibition fund, for
which between 401. and 501. were put down, which has since
been increased to 4701. ; besides subscriptions to the amount
of 461 , to aid working men in procuring materis's on which
to exerese their skill and ingenuity, with a view to sending
their productions to the Exhibition. The meeting at Stock-
port was very influentially attended, though sot very nume
roes, and Miens. Kershaw (M.P.) and Co. subscribed 60:
in addition to 2001. they had prevlouly given towards the
Manchester fund. Mr. James Heald, the other member for
Stockport, has given 201.; and altogether the fond at Stock-
port bus reached nearly 300!. At Bradford they have en-
tered on the work with great spirit and liberality. Upwards
of 1,1001. have been subscribed, and they speak of 2,0001. as
likely to be reached before they rest content with their
exertions.
I mentioned in my letter of Tuesday the particulars of a
disgraceful mane which had occurred on that day in the
cathedral church of this town, on the occasion of the annual
election of churchwardens; bat a scene of greater bitterness,
and displaying a yet more unchristian stint, was provoked
in the parish church of Leigh by the conduct of the vicar, at
a meeting for a similar purpose. The conduct of the vicar of
Leigh has been prominently before the public of Is., in
connexion with annoyances given to such of his parishioners
as are dissenters, by refusing to marry them, baptise their
children, or bury their dead. The Rev. Moorhens, James,
the perpetual curate of Bedford, a chapelry within the
same parish, is apparently a men after the vicar's
own heart ; but the curate is not so cunning a
master of fence, and has recently fallen within the lea of the
law at the Liverpool arisen. The vicar is well versed in the
canons of his church, and has hitherto so well kept the law
between himself and hie victims as to reader them hopeless
of redress. A short time ago the churehwardens sought
redress at the hands of his diocesan, the Bishop of Man-
chester, and incurred semi 8!. expense in various pro-
ceedings whisk they instituted. The bishop's remonstrance
wilt the vicar wee of no avail, sad they sought
tar any the matter farther ; but either the diocesan
has net yet power to deal with him, or some unforeseen die.
culty hes arises. • " hitch " there is somewhere, and
meantime the vicar goes unmunled. Well, on Tuesday, he
constituted himself chairman of the vestry meeting to elect
wardens, and when the retiring wardens brought forward
their aceounts to be pared, he seised upon the pretext of the
charge of 81. above mentioned for rejecting them. The
amounts were moved and seconded, and the meeting
was willing to "paw" them, but the vicar would
not suffer it. He said the item was illegal, and
because the meeting would not obey his dictum, he die-
wired it and left the teak. There was preemie a
Mr. John Stack Tuner Gessae, a barrister =dllest
