and that a double charge

below Bishop's College.
in both of the The Chamber was disposed to acquiesce
fore-
going propositions.
Third—lt is proposed that in regard to vessels such as the
last mentioned leaving Calcutta, if no pilot join a vessel be-
fore eight AM., the day after she has produced her port
clearance at the Master Attendant's office, the vessel be at
liberty to proceed, keeping the pilot's jack flying as long as
she is within pilot's water without a pilot, and receiving
one as soon as he offers to come on board.
The Chamber recommended that twenty-four hours, in-
stead of" eight A.M." after production of the port clearance
at the master-attendant's office, be the time when the ship
shall be privileged to proceed.
The Chamber suggested that, should the measure be
authorised by Government, six months from the date of
promulgation should be allowed to elapse before carrying it
into 'effect, to afford time to the merchants and underwriters
in England and elsewhere, to make any modification in the
terms of insurance, which the alterations might appear to
reptire.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant,

To. W. Dobson, sq., Secretary for Lloyd's, London.

Pamban Passage, and Junksevlon, on the coast of Tennas-
serim, or Cape Comorin and Penang, including the Nicobar
Islands, as Government might determine."

THE RECTOR AND HIS STICK.—The Rev. William
Albemarle Cater, Rector of Carshalton, has been fined
4/. for cruelly beating a boy of fourteen, whose crime
was this—he played at " hockey" before the good man's
door! " The boy's clothes," say the papers, " were
taken off in court, and his back exhibited several large
cruises, evident .y caused by violent beating." In the
niden day the wand of the priest burst into sweet
smelling blossoms, but the stick of Parson Cator bears,
as gardeners would. say, a very different sort of " blow."
