THE LORD CHANCELLOR'S BENEFICES.—The
annual return of proceedings under Lord Westbury's Act
of 1863 shows that 70 of the poorer and seven of the
richer livings in the gift of the Lord Chancellor have been
sold since the act came into operation, producing £141,809.
In the last twelvemonth sales have been effected of ten
of the poor livings, and the purchase-money paid over to
the Ecclesiastical Commissioners —Laleham, Church
Leach, Earls Barton, Hyson green, Grandborough, Heanor,
Ansley, Ditchling, Middleton, and St. Nicholas, Notting-
ham. The income of nearly all these livings is returned as
under £2OO ; they will now be augmented. Sales of four
of the richer livings were effected within the last twelve-
month—Lenton, Elvington, Harston, and lialmesbury.
The amount received from the sale of the richer livings
has now reached £23,050, and of this sum £11,500 has
been applied in augmentation of the income of poorer
benefices in the Lord Chancellor's gift, leaving a balance
of £11,550 unappropriated.

The Americans are expecting the Marquis of
Lorn, eldest son of the Duke of Argyll, to make an ex-
tended tour through their country, accompanied by two
other English noblemen. The party is now in Jamaica.
