LORD FIFE.—A correspondent. requests us to
state that the Right Hon. the Earl of Fife
.has expressed
himself entirely satisfied and well plp.s.ed with the course
which has been followed, by the nnionty of the Presby-
tery of Strathbogie, in.refereoee to the Marnoch case.
His Lordship, we are InforTned, has expressed himself
4o the effect that it was h farce for ministers of the esta-
blishment to pretend_ that they did not recognize the law
of the State, whe':, it was notorious that they never ho-
sitated to reseirt to that law to obtain augmentations of
their stlP:Aids.—Aberdeen Herald.

House.—Manchester Courier.
UMBRELLA FOR THE QUEEN.—We have
been highly gratified by an inspection of the umbrella
that has been in preparation, and is now nearly com-
pleted, by Mr. Samuel Stears, of this town. The cover
is of the very best rich white satin, the stick a Pastriza
cane ; the hand part is beautifully carved pearl, with
gold eyes. The top, which is in the form of a *rown,
is of the finest chased solid gold, with a beautiful silver
string and two tassels in the form of English acorns. The
slide and other inner parts are of silver. The case for
the reception of the umbrella is lined with rich crimson
velvet, and is covered with scarlet morocco leather.
Altogether the appearance is most chaste and elegant

Christmas never set in here in a milder form than
at present. With the exception of yesterday, when
there was a heavy rain, the weather lately has been
like the finest days in October or in Spring. An ex-
tensive sheep farmer writes us—" We have not had
such a season for sheep stock for twenty years.". --low-
ness Gazette.
