FUNERAL OF MR LEECH.--It has been arranged
that the funeral of Mr Leech shall take place on Friday
next at Mensal-green, where the hearse will arrive at half-
past one o'clock. Mr Leech's heart was in that cemetery,
where he buried his first child in 1819. There also his
friends have been able to secure for him a grave the next
but one to that of his friend and schoolfellow, Thackeray.
It may be right to mention that none will be invited to the
funeral but the members of his family and those who, like
Dr Quin, Mr Hutchinson, Mr Bradbury, and Mr Evans,
wore more immediately connected with him. He had to
large a circle of friends that it is impossible to invite all.

COLONIAL BISHOPS ROUCIIIING IT.—We cannot
resist the temptation of relating the following anezdote of
the Apostolic Bishop of New Zealand, the scene of whose
adventures lies here. He had persuaded the Bishop of New-
castle to start with him from Sidney on a missionary cruise
in his little yacht to Now Caledonia, the New Ilabrides, the
Loyalty, and other islands in his then extensive diocese,
Like ourselves they put in at the Bay of Islands. The Bi-
shop of Now Zealand wished to show his brother of New-
castle a little of the country, and for that purpose proposed
to take him to a distant station on the other side of this very
river. The ground was boggy, as we had found it, and the
Bishop of Newcastle had never been accustomed to rough it
in such a country as this. Ho could ride his 50 mile a
day in his own diocese ; but his hardy brother always
walked, and besides there were no horses to be had here.
Always neat and spruce in kis dress, looking " as it ho had
just come out of a bandbox," and afraid like a cat to wet
his feet, he picked his way most carefully and delicately,
unlike his brother bishop, who tramped on " through thick
and through thin," till at last they came to the river side.
The river was swollen with the heavy rain which had been
pouring down in torrents for some days previously, and he of
Newcastle looked awfully puzzled. wondering how they were
to cross—neither bridge nor ford being visible in any direct
Lion. lie was still further puzzled, when he saw the Bishop
of New Z ealand, without a word, deliberately taking off shoes,
leggings, stockings, and, last of all, his breeches. In reply
to his brother Bishop's" Whatever next," ho coolly collected
hie various articles of dress, and stepped into the river up to
is apron. cilliug out as h, did so " Now then, Newcastle,
lI vbith your brecks, and fellow your hada!" There
W as
uo help for it, as there was no other means of crossing the
river, and the good Bishop invariably refused to be carried
across by any of his Maori suite, on :he ground that it was
not right to treat such noble fellows ssbea.ts of burden,—
