THE BISHOP OF BRISBANE ON HIS DIOCESE.—The
Lord Bishop of Brisbane addressed a public meeting
which was held on Tuesday evening, in the St Philip's
Church.' Schools, Wilmott-street, idulme.—Mr. -Hugh
Birley prcsidek/md there was a good attendanoa, includ-
ing several clergymen.—The.Lord Bishop explained that
his diocese (for which he would shortly sail) extended
firom the east coast of. Australia, in lat. 28 deg., south
to Cape. York, the northern point of the continent,
giving. a coast line of 1,500 miles; Whe, in a
westerly direction it extended to 141 deg. west longitude,
or more than 11500 miles, and thmilring the diocese
of 'Nall; comprised thF readinder—of the
northern part of Australia. His diocese was co-extensive
with the new colony of Queensland (origin:alb, pro-
posed to rbe called Cooksland), and to it a Roman Ca-
r tholic bishop of Brisbane bad already"departed. At
present weroccupied a space extending from the S.W.
corner of the diocese, about equal to England ; and that
.tract was divided into ten districts or parishes, only
T"iir of which -hid anything like C'hurch'or England
building, the travelling missionary,- in his periodical
visits; performing the service in the other districts,
in a sheep station, a wool shed, or some other
such building which was cleared.: for the pur-
pose. A portion of the diocese would be well known
as the Moreton Bay district;. which for eighteen years
from 1824, was used as a penal settlement for re-con-
' victed convicts. He considered his duties to; divide
themselves into three great sections :—First, to give the
Gospel and the ministrations of the Church to the
British settlers ; second, to _make efforts .tosonyert the
natives, or some of them ; third, to see what -could be
done for the Indian and Chinese Coolies, or the Africans,
who must ere long be imported, seeing that the northern
part of the diocese had the cotton plant indigenous, and
must become an important cotton-supply ground,for this
ountry.—A vote of thanks to the Lord Bishop was
nonimously adopted, and a collection was made.
