the religious ceremony. The marriage was a choral one
precisely the same as observed at the late marriage of Lord

the choir of the village church most ably discharging the
duties required from them, At the conclusion of the
service Mendelssohn's " Wedding Mama" was played 00

of " prison bars" affording amusement and relaxation during
the greater part of the afternoon. Lord and Lady Stanley
of Alderley gave an entertainment of tea, bans, &c., to the
whole of the school children who had taken part in the pro-
ceedings of the day. Some of the bride's numerous presents
were very costly, but among those gifts of respect none
wero more esteemed than a photograph book from the
school children of Alderley, and a gift from the girls of the
parish of a handsome case of scent bottles.

The Duke of Newcastle has no intention for the
present to remove from Clumber Park, Notts, to
Brighton, as stated. His grace is, if anything.
better in health than when he left town for hie
country seat; but no great improvement has take"

place.
The Earl of Carlisle continues in much the same
state of health as when ho left,Dublin. No change
for the worse has taken place, and there are Lopes
that, with retirement, his health may yet be re'
stored.

The Earl of Dudley, who is at present at hio

MISS BATEMAN. This distinguished Entrees
(who need no longer be designated as " Transat•
lantic") is now fulfilling a brief engagement at the Theatre
Royal, Liverpoil, and the newspapers of that town speak
loudly in her praise. The Daily Post says—" Miss Bate-
man's engagement, the commencement of which we chro•
nicled at the beginning of the week, has been ar.'. overwhelul
ing success. It is very seldom, except on the rare occasion
of a very great benefit, that the Theatre Royal has been so
crowded for a long time past as it is each evening to witness
the performance of this distinguished tragedienne. As her
success is purely a legitimate one, accomplished in a piece
without sensational effects, and by no means remarkable for

literary merit, the fact of her brilliant success in Liverpool,
following upon that which she achieved in London, is a real
dramatic event."

THE NEW ROMAN CATHOLIC REFORMATORY I'
THE MERSEY,—At the monthly meeting of the Liverpool
town council yesterday, the following resolution was unani-
mously agreed to—" That this council make an order for
the payment of the sum of £1,500 towards the expenses of
fitting up the ship Clarence on its first establishment as a
reformatory school for Roman Catholic boys, on the con-
dition that the managers of such school do receive therein
from time to time, when enabled to do so, Roman Catholic
boys committed from this borough, and directed to bo sent
to a reformat,ry school." The expense of fitting up the
ship Clarence, which, it may be remembered, was lent hi
the Government a short time ago, will be about £3,500. The
government expended abont£l,2oo upon the vessel, and the
commi(tee therefore owe the government this amount. The
committee of the institution have received donations to the
extent of £2,040, and the annual subscriptions promised UP
to the present time amount to £350. The whole of the
donations have been absorbed rla fitting up the vessel and
placing her in a convenient posiCon in the Sloyne. The
Clarence has accommodation for a bout 250 boys, but the
actual number to be received will be fi-Ked by the government
inspector.

FAILURES IN THE NORTH.—We yesterday 9124
nounced the failure of Mr Clough, spinner and
manufacturer, of Bradford, and there are rumours of another
extensive failure in the West Riding, which, however, we
have been authoritatively unable to confirm. At a meeting
of the creditors of Alfred Teale on Tuesday it was stated
that the liabilities were considerably over £lOO,OOO, but
nathing is definitely known as to the assets. The ,:onsign4
ments on the books amount to £145,000, the books debts to
£6,000, the stock to £I9,CCO, and the plant and machinery
to £6,00), so that if the rellisation of the assets is favourable
there should be a large dividend. At present there is 110
confirmation of the rumoured irregular bill tiansaotions by
the bankrupt, and it was intimated that Air Teale
probably return on SaturdaytyLeeds litorcury.
