DEATH OF THE REV. DR. PENFOLD.—We regret
to announce the death of the Rev. GeOrge Saxby Pen-
fold, D.D. Rector of Trinity Church, Marylebone, which
event took place at the late residence of the Rev. Gen-
tleman, in Dorset-square, on the morning of Wednesday
last. Dr— Penfold was educated at Cambridge, and ob-
tained high honours in that University. The Rev. Gen-
tleman for many years officiated as minister of Christ
Church, but on the division of the parish of St. Mary-
lebone into ecclesiastical districts, he was presented to the
incumbency of the Trinity district. By the death of the
Rev. Gentleman, the rectory of Trinity Church, and that
of Kingswinford, Staffordshire, have become vacant.
The rectory of Trinity is in the gift of the Crown, the
annual value being 943/. To the rectory of Kingswin-
ford the Rev. Doctor was instituted in 1832. Its annual
value is 900/., and the patronage is vested in Lord Ward.
Dr. Penfold, since his introduction to the metropolitan
benefice, has taken an active part in parochial affairs. He
was considered a sound and eloquent preacher.

Mr. Rowland Hill, the promoter of our postal re-
form, is at present in Paris, and was at a dinner given
him by the Society of Economists on the 11th instant.
PROPOSED COLLEGE AT BRIGHTON.—We are in-
formed that a college of a superior kind is to be
opened at Brighton shortly after Christmas, com-
prising a lower school for younger boys, a higher
department of a. mote collegiate character for the
elder pupils, and classes for occasional students
in the highest branches of classical, scientific, and theo-
logical reading. The students will be fully prepared for
the universities, and for the naval and military profes-
sions. The times require that places of sound educa-
tion should be multiplied in our land; that the advan-
tages of the old public schools should be retained and
rendered more accessible, while their defects are avoided;
and that the principles of an intelligent piety, and en-
lightened attachment to the Church of England, should
be more intimately and cordially blended with the gene-
ral plan of education. It seems scarcely possible to
name a locality better adapted for such a design than
Brighton, from its increasing population, residents as
well as occasional, and from its acknowledged healthi-
ness. The names which stand at the head of the insti-
tution, and the high character and classical and mathe-
matical attainments of its Principal and Vice-Principal
are a guarantee to the public that it will fulfil what it
professes.
DEPTFORD DOCKYARD.—IIer Majesty's frigate
Phaeton, 50 guns, and Termagant steam frigate, are
ordered to be completed with all possible expedition, and
for that purpose all the hands employed upon the Eu-
phrates, Archer, and Partheon, have been drawn off
and placed upon the two first-named ve34els,
