ECCLESIASTICAL NOTICE.—The Bishop of London has
requested the attention of his Clergy to i.he following :
First, That, for the future, six months' notice, at least,
will be required of every person who wishes to be admitted
as a candidate for ordination in the diocese of London.

Secondly, That no letters or testimonials will be received or
countersigned by the Bishop of London, unless it be stated
therein that the parties signing them have had opportuni-
ties of observing the conduct of the parties, in whose
favour the testimonials are given, for the period, specified
in such testimonials.
A communication has just been received from the Lord
Chamberlain by the Master of Dedham grammar-school,
intimating her Majesty's pleasure, that an additional week
he granted to the gentlemen of that school at the ensuing
Midsummer vacation, in consequence of the royal marriage.

THE TYRIAN.—It was expected that every thing
would be got out of the wreck by noon yesterday. The whole of
the insurance effected on the ship and cargo was rather more
than 40,0001., but whether the loss will fall on the under-
writers or not will entirely depend on what ulterior proceed-
ings are adopted. The expense of raising the ship, bringing
her up to London, and discharging her cargo, will exceed
3,0001. Every thing brought out of the vessel yesterday was
in a sad plight and covered with soft mud, while the men in
the hold were working up to their knees in it. At three
o'clock on Monday the wreck was only two feet lighter than
she was when first brought into dock, but the part where she
was stove in has been so well patched over with planking, that
there is no fear of her going down again. No vessel was ever
seen in a more dilapidated state than the Tyrian ; when she
left the pool a finer barque never sailed out of the port. Inde.-
pendent of the severe loss of life caused by the collision with
the steamer, and the grief of the surviving relatives, the sea-
men belonging to the Tyrian have been thrown into a state of
great distress by the accident, and their consequent detention
ashore for the purposes of a legal inquiry. The inquest will
be resumed before Mr. Lewis, the Essex Coroner, at Grays,
on Thursday next, when the witnesses to be brought forward
by Mr. Dixon, the solicitor, and Mr. Thomson, the agent of
the Manchester Steam-ship Company, will be examined ; and
as only one side has been yet heard, we shall not attempt to give
any opinion as to the cause of the accident.

TREATMENT OF THE JUDGES.—The City
authorities of Cork, it appears, have treated the Judges with
but little attention. " The strange neglect (says the Southern
Reporter), almost amounting to disrespeet, evinced towards
these Judicial personages at the Assizes just concluded, in all
those external manifestations which were accustomed to be ob-
served, has been matter of notoriety, and was generally com-
mented upon, for the last fortnight, and even the paucity of
the attendants within the Courts, for the due and proper dis-
charge of the duties to be performed, did not escape the notice
of Mr. Justice Perrin.
LAMENTABLE SUICIDE BY A JEWISH LADY.
—On Sunday last a frightful act of self-destruCtion was com-
mitted by Miss Julia Aaron, a maiden lady of the Jewish per-
suasion, aged about thirty-eight, at the house of her mother,
No. 6, Crescent, Minories. About six weeks ago the son,
owing, it was said, to some losses, committed suicide by shoot-
ing himself through the head. Since then the deceased, who
resided with her mother and two sisters, had frequently exhi-
bited symptoms of unsoundness of mind. On Sunday week she
was observed by the servant of a gentleman in America-square
to lean out of the window of an apartment on the second floor
back, but on perceiving her she drew back again. On Sunday
last, between the hours before named, she proceeded to the

A WOMAN SHOT.—On Friday last, an inquest
was held by C. C. Lewis, Esq., at the Three Tuns, at New-
port, Essex, on the body of Sarah Monk, aged 20, servant at
that house, who had been shot on the previous day, by the
son of the landlord. The son said, I saw John Spencer's gun
standing behind the table in this room ; I took it up to look at
it, and saw there was no cap on the lock, and so I thought it
was not loaded. I heard my brother say hi. had got a cap, and
I went and got one of him and pat it on the gut) ; the deceased
at this time stood in the tap-room, and I was going out of the
