Mason, several members of the personnel quitted London

We hare reason to believe that Sir William
Atherton has resigned the office of Attotney-
General. The cause, we regret to say, is continued ill
health. Sir William Atherton was offered the puisx.e judge-
ship, vacant by the appointment of Baron Wilde to
succeed the late Sir Cresswell Cresswell. But his state of
health compelled him to relinquish all official work, and ha
has therefore deemed it his duty to resign the Attorney-
Generalship, to the regret of all those officially associated
with him. Sir William Atherton is succeeded by Sir
Roundell Palmer, the Solicitor-General. With the latter
office the name of Mr. Collier has been more than once
mentioned by way of rumour, and in the present instance
it is not improbable that the rumour may prove well
founded.

the memory of Gilbert White will be interested to

Natural Historian was only twenty-eight years old, and
preached, seemingly, for the last time in 1792, only eight
months before his death, ' The text is 1 John, iv. 20, "Be
that says he loves God, but hateth his brother, is a lyar,
for, if he loves not his brother whom he hath seen, bow can
ha love God, whom he hash not seen F' The sermon is
communicated by the grand-nephew of the writer, the itev,
F. Gilbert White, of 13arngill House, Whitehaven.
