CHRISTCHURCH.—The workmen employed in
widening the small bridge called Millham's-brie, near
the ancient ruins at Christchurch, discovered, a few days
since, near the abutments of the bridge, some curious
coins and tokens ; on one of the latter, about the size of a
fonrpenny piece, are six Jive pointed stars and the letters
R. C. ; within a circle the date 1666, and the words " In
Dorchester ;" on the reverse is the name " Richard
Cheney'," surrounded by some masonic emblems.

. Our established Clergy seem determined not to com-
promise their public character by halves. This was sig-
nally evinced at the late election, when at least ninety-
nine out of the hundred of the entire body voted against
the cause of the people. But we think it is still more stri-
(ingly_proved_by_ibe_„extraordinary fact-of one thousand
nine hundred and fifty-six warrants of poinding and sale
living:been issued against their flocks, at the instance of
the venerable Edinburgh brethren since the month ofJuiw.
.Nothing so• remarkable in connection with the Establish.;
mfrit has occurred since ,the days of Jenny Geddes.—.:

been burned to death. Her neighbours had heard her
breaking sticks to kindle her fire abo.ut seven o'clock ; but
her dreadful fate was not known till eleven o'clock, when
she was discovered by her husband, a coachman, of the
name of Reid, who was obliged to enter the house by the
window, as the unfortunate woman had locked the door.—

An address has been presented to her Grace the
Duchess of Sutherland, from the tenants end cotters of the
earish of Keanlochbervie, expressing the warmest gratitude
for her unexampled kindness towards them. Her Grace's
conduct to hei suffering tenantry has, indeed, been beyond
all praise. We heiioye the supplies of meal afforded by her
bounty during the late scasi.;:3 of severe distress amounted
to 9,000 bolls, while the generaiindulgence displayed to
the tenantry has been equally noble, perch treatment has
made a deep impression on the many thousands on her
Princely estates.—lnverness Courier.
