WELLINGTON MILITARY INIEMORIAL.--It has
given us great pleasure to learn that her Majesty Queen Adelaide has
subscribed 2001. to :he funds for erecting a national memorial of the
Duke of Wellington's military azhievemenls. Many other additional
subscriptions were announced at the recent meeting of the Committee:
among others the Earl of Craven, 1001.; the Earl of Weinyss, 50
guineas ; Lord Abinger (Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer,)
guineas; George Miller, Esq., 501.; Marquis of Thomond, 251.; Ad
miral Sir J. H. Whitshed, 251.; &c. &c. We understand that it is in-
tended to publish a complete list of the Subscribers on the 18th instant,
the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo.
PARSON MAGISTRATES.— WC have in our eye a
clerical Magistrate in this very diocese, who, in his day, was pres:ad, as
one of a bench of Magistrates, on an occasion when the people entered
into a conflict with the military, and blood was shed. R did not occur
even in his own parish, and this makes the ease tell yet more strongly
in favour of our argument. And what has been the result ? The cir_
cumstance to which we allude occurred twenty years ago or more, and
yet the memory of it is as fresh in the minds of his parishioners as if the
thing had only happened yesterday. He is, we know, kind in his lan.
page and manners to all who come in contact with him ; charitable, to
• a degree, to the poor; generous, to a proverb, to all who happen
to be employed by him; and yet his parishioners, to this day, can-
not approach him without a shudder, a kind of involuntary horror,
which they cannot overcome. We cannot better describe the feeling
which they entertain towards him, than by relating a circumstance,
which we know to be a fact, and which happened within a few weeks of
this very day on which we tell it. " How comes it," said a friend of
ours to an artisan in this reverend gentleman's parish, "that none of
you like working for Mr. ? He seems to me to be the kindest of
men and the best of masters." " Yes," replied the man, " for that,
it is the nest shop in the parish to work at. He has a kind word
for every body, and always pays us more than we bargain for ; but,
then, you know, Sir," and here he gave a look full of meaning and
horror, " but, then, you know, Wit., we can't help it, we call him the
blucher." This one simple fact, which, as we said before, we know to
be true, is worth a thousand volumes of argument. It shows the
practical working of the system which tolerates a clerical magistracy,
and loudly calls upon the Legislature to remove the evil.—Liverpool

The celebrated Dr. Antomarchi, so well known to
the world as the physcian who followed Napoleon to St. Helena, and re-
mained with him while he lived, died on the 3d of April, at St. Jago de

tear,: from France, and was rec:ived with distinguished attention. He
