THE GREAT EASTERN.—The number of passen-
gers engaged for the Great Eastern up to last evening is
understood to be only 33.
The Weekly Register proceeds with its acknow-
ledgment of " Offerings to the Holy See." The amount
from the " diocese" of Westminster now reaches £6,340 ;
and in the " diocese" of Shrewsbury collections are stated
at £1,500. From a statement in the same journal it appears
that on the announcement of the Papal loan £BO,OOO was
allotted to be raised in England.
BISHOPS OF DURHAM WHO HAVE BEEN MADE
ARCIIBISROPS OP YORK.—It appears from an article on
this subject in the Gateshead Observer, that eight occupants
of the see of Durham have been raised to the Archbishopric
of York. These were—Laurence Booth in 1476, Chris-
topher Bainbrigg in 1507, Cardinal Wolsey (who never
visited either), Bishop Hutton in 1594, Toby Matthew
in 1605, George Monteigne in 1627, Richard Neile, and
now Dr. Longley.
PROVIDENTIAL RESCUE —ALNMOUTH, NEAR
ALNIVICK, June 13.—1 t has been blowing here a fresh
gale from S.E., with heavy sea. In the course of yester-
day the brig Ann, of Blyth, from Memel, with timber, was
observed to drive, in the height of the storm, from her two
anchors. Sail was made and the vessel beached. The life-
boat of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution being in
perfect readiness was immediately launched, and was shortly
afterwards alongside the ship. Two minutes had not
elapsed after the brig's crew of eight men had been taken
on board the lifeboat before the vessel's masts fell, most
providentially clear of the lifeboat, otherwise every soul on
board would have been instantly killed. Th'e little lifeboat,
which is only 20 feet long, and had only a crew of six men
on board, behaved nobly on the occasion. She is the gift of
Mr. James Beaching, winner of the Northumberland life-
boat prize, to the Duchess of Northumberland, who has
transferred the boat to the management of the National
Lifeboat Institution.

The heroic son of Manin, formerly the President
of the Republic of Venice, has been twice wounded. At
Calata Fimi on the 15th ult. ho received a ball in the thigh;
and in the assault of Palermo, on the 27th, he received a
ball in the same leg. The latter wound is much more
severe than the former.
