SUBDIVISION OF DIOCESES BILL.

Lord LYTTELTON moved the second reading of this
bill. The noble lord said he had not brought for-
ward this bill on his sole responsibility, but
last session the bill was brought to him by
several very eminent personages, and concurring in
the objects of the measure, he had undertaken the charge
of it. He did not seek to make extensive alterations in the
church, but his object was to effect improvements where
they were most urgently required. He wished to assimila to
the system of the English Church at home with
respect to the constitution of dioceses to what it already
was in the Colonial Church, or to a,,sitnilate that
system as regarded the erection of dioceses to
what it was with regard to the subdivision of
parishes and the erection of new churches. The clergy
year after year had petitioned the Crown for an extension
cf the episcopacy, and although there had been
such extension in the colonial episcopate, yet at
home, where it was as much required, none had
taken place. He did not believe it was owing to the
want of funds that such had not been done, but thought it
was altogether owing to the want of any machinery for the
purpose.

THE PRICE OF GOLD.

The quotation of gold at Pans is About 3 per mille prom.,
and the short exchange on London is 25.40 per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
170. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
By advices from Hamburg the price of geld is 427 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.71 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1053 to 106 for first-class bills. Although this
shows the exchange to be against England, the high rate of
interest in both countries, and the loss of time before the
gold is received back from the American Mints, render it
doubtful if any profit can be made at the present rates by
sending gold to the United States.

THE THIRD SEAT FOR SOUTH LANCASHIRE.—
We are informed that a requisition is about to be presented
to the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, requesting that he
will allow himself to be put in nomination for the third seat
about to be created for South Lancashire. Our Liverpool
c9rrespondent informs us that at a meeting of the Liberal
party in that town yesterday such a requisition was agreed
to.—Manchester Esanizner.

The report of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, to
be presented on the lath inst., recommends that the com-
pany should be still kept formally in existence, so as to pre-
serve its original privileges, consisting of agreements with
the American companies, and its direct connexion with the
Governments of England and the United States. The
directors feel confident that the course of improvement in
ocean telegraphy will result in the success of a line from
Ireland to Newfoundland.

The bill for regulating the use of locomotives on
turnpike roads was sent to-day before a Parliamentary com-
mittee. Many of its clauses seemed framed with the ex-
press view of defeating all the peculiar advantages which
traction engines are capable of conferring. There is, con-
sequently, a strong probability that in this, as in almost all
previous improvements in science for the benefit of com-
merce, many years of delay will, through legislative med-
dling, have to be encountered.

A.RCIIBISHOP WHATELY ON THE

MARRIAGE LA 1P

The following annotation of ArchbishopWhately's
in his edition of " Paley's Moral Philosophy," has
a peculiar interest at the present time, when the,
defective state of our marriage law has been so pro-
minently exhibited by the recent cases of Beamish
and of Yelverton : and it is only necessary to add
that the law recommended by the archbishop has
been for some time established in France:—
" Marriages in England during the usurpation were soletn-
nisoebefore a justice of the peace; but for what, pur-
pose this novelty was introduced, except to degrade the
clergy, does not appear."
As it does not appear that the parties were prohibited
from superadding any religious ceremony they might choose,
Paley's censure of the law seems unreasonable.
As long as this full liberty of conscience is left, such a law
appears the wisest—indeed the only wise one_—_ on,othienstuerfbjeercet,

EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW.
The half-yearly meetint, of this company was
held in Glasgow on Tuesday, Mr. P. Blackburn,
M.P., in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report,
and said it must be satisfactory to the shareholders
to see the steady increase of the receipts half-year
after half-year. If they could only keep down the
capital account, which had always a tendency to
increase, he hoped their dividend would continue
to increase. With regard to the expenditure on
the plant, he was afraid there was no possibility
of decreasing it, while the mineral traffic in-
creased. He thought the opposition to the
Amalgamation Bill was a mistake, that it would
be beneficial to the shareholders and the pub-
lic. He complained of the opposition of the
corporations of Edinburgh and Glasgow, and
expressed his willingness to meet them in a fair
and liberal manner, but they did not appear to
understand, and said they would oppose the Amal-
gamation Bill on principle.
Mr. DUNLOP seconded the motion.

A long discussion ensued, in which Mr. Comrie,
Mr. A. Paton, Mr. M'Gavin, and other share-
holders took part ; in the course of which the
report was adopted, and the dividend, at the rate of
41 per cent. per annum, was declared.

MARRIAGE LAWS IN IRELAND.

Lord CHELMSFORD presented a petition complaining
of the evils arising from the existing state of the law of
marriage in Ireland. It prayed that an inquiry into these
laws might be instituted, and that the Roman Catholic
clergy might be entitled to those privileges in celebrating
marriages, and subjected to the same restrictions as other
clergymen.
THE FINE ARTS COMMITTEE.
The Earl of SHELBURN begged to ask the noble earl
below him (Earl Granville) when it was likely the room
now occupied by the Fine Arts Committee, which was origi-
nally intended for the Standing Orders Committee, would
be occupied as it was originally intended ?
Earl GRANVILLE said he could not give the noble
earl an answer to his question at the present moment, as
there was some difficulty connected with the subject.
Lord REDESDALE raid he had for years urged the
same subject on the attention of the noble earl. The room
in which the standing orders business was transacted was
quite inadequate for the performance of the public business,
If the Standing Orders Committee could not be entirely
given up, he thought it ought to be vacated during the
sitting of Parliament.
The subject then dropped.

ESSAYS AND REVIEWS.

The following letter of protest against some
recent expressions of the Bishop of Salisbury, in
convocation, has becn addressed to his lordship by
a beneficed clergyman of the diocese:—

Marn hull Rectory, Dorset, Feb. 20, 1861.

My Lord,—As a beneficed clergyman in your lordship's
diocese, I yield to a sense of duty in expressing to your
lordship the regret which I feel at seeing your lordship's
name attached to a letter from the Archbishop of Canter-
bury, containing a condemnation of a work emanating from
seven of the most learned and best informed members of our
Church.

On my own part, and that of my brethren in the diocese,
the range of whose studies is likely to lead them to approve
of the general spirit of the book in question, I can assure
your lordship that we shall be always ready to listen re-
spectfully, on all fitting occasions, to the opinions of our
ecclesiastical superiors, however much they may differ from
our own; but in doing so we claim for ourselves the right,
limited and restrained solely by the laws of the realm, of
publishing our own sentiments, and the results of our re-
searches, freely and without reserve ; nor do we conceive
that in exercising this right, subject to such limitation and
restriction, we render ourselves liable to ecclesiastical cen-
sure, direct or indirect, of any kind whatever.
I beg, therefore, as a clergyman of the diocese of Salis-
bury, respectfully to protest, and do hereby formally and
officially protest, against the assumption.on the part of your
lordship of the power to express such censure, prior to the
judgment, and without the sanction of any duly constituted
court of law.

I have the honour to be your lordship's very humble and
obedient servant,
R. B. KENNARD, Rector of Marnhull.
To the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Salisbury, &c.

SPECTACLES.-SIGHT AND HEARING.-
DEAFNESS. -A newly-invented instrument for ex-
treme cases of deafness, called the SOUND MAGNIFIER,
Organic Vibrator, and Invisible Voice Conductor. It fits so
nto the ear as not to be in the least perceptible ; the unplea-
-ant sensation of singing noises in the head is entirely re-
moved. It affords instant relief to deaf persons, and enables
them to hear distinctly at Church and at public Assemblies.
Every other kind of hearing instruments. Messrs. SOLO-
71IONS have invented spectacle lenses of the greatest trans-
parent power. The valuable advantage derived from their
invention is, that vision becomes preserved and strengthened ;
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the
most minute occupation, can see with these lenses of a much
less magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent
changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-
ance.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the -York

THE THIRD SEAT FOR SOUTH LANCASHIRE,—
We are informed that a requisition is about to be presented
to the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, requesting that he
will allow himself to be put in nomination for the third seat
about to be created for South Lancashire. Our Liverpool
correspondent informs us that at a meeting of the Liberal
party in that town yesterday such a requisition was agreed
to.—Manchester Examiner.
The report of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, to
be presented on the 18th inst., recommends that the com-
pany should be still kept formally in existence, so as to pre-
serve its original privileges, consisting of agreements with
the American companies, and its direct connexion with the
Governments of England and the United States. Tho
directors feel confident that the course of improvement in
ocean telegraphy will result in the success of a line from
Ireland to Newfoundland.
The bill for regulating the use of locomotives on
turnpike roads was sent to-day before a Parliamentary
mittee. Many of its clauses seemed framed with the ex-
press view of defeating all the peculiar advantages which
traction engines are capable of conferring. There is, con-
sequently, a strong probability that in this, as in almost all
previous improvements in science for the benefit of com-
merce, many years of delay will, through legislative med-
dling, have to be encountered.
THE WISBEACH MURDER.—Since the committal
of the prisoner Augustus Hilton, who is charged with the
murder of his wife at Parsondrove, near Wisbeach, under
circumstances already reported, he has laboured under
violent excitement, and two turnkeys have remained con-
stantly with him in his cell in Cambridge Gaol. Within
the last day or two, however, he has become more tranquil.
It is expected that the defence set up on his trial, which
will take place on Yriday er Saturday, will be ineanity,

ESSAYS AND REVIEWS.

The following letter of protest against some
recent expressions of the Bishop of Salisbury, in
convocation, has been addressed to his lordship by
a beneficed clergyman of the diocese :

Marnhull Rectory, Dorset, Feb. 20, 1861.
My Lord,—As a beneficed clergyman in your lordship's
diocese, I yield to a sense of duty in expressing to your
lordship the regret which I feel at seeing your lordship's
name attached to a letter from the Archbishop of Canter-
bury, containing a condemnation of a work emanating from
seven of the most learned and best informed members of our
Church,

On my own part, and that of my brethren in the diocese,
the range of whose studies is likely to lead them to approve
of the general spirit of the book in question, I can assure
your lordship that we shall be always ready to listen re-
spectfully, on all fitting occasions, to the opinions of our
ecclesiastical superiors, however much they may differ from
our own; but in doing so we claim for ourselves the right,
limited and restrained solely by the laws of the realm, of
publishing our own sentiments, and the results of our re-
searches, freely and without reserve ; nor do we conceive
that in exercising this right, subject to such limitation and
restriction, we render ourselves liable to ecclesiastical cen-
sure, direct or indirect, of any kind whatever.
I beg, therefore, as a clergyman of the diocese of Salis-
bury, respectfully to protest, and do hereby formally and
officially protest, against the assumption cn the part of your
lordship of the power to express such censure, prior to the
judgment, and without the sanction of any duly constituted
court of law.

I have the honour to be your lordship's very humble and
obedient servant,
R. B. KENNARD, Rector of Marnhull.
To the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Salisbury, &c.

The annual report of the directors of this com-
pany stated that the revenue for the year 1860
amounted to £220,344, which, added to £3,796
brought from the preceding account, made £224,140
for the year, as compared with £200,022 for the
year 1859, being an increase of £24,118 ; charging
the working expenditure with £103,063, and taxa-
tion and way-leaves £4,434, a surplus remained of
£116,642. After deducting £31,386 for interest
on preferential capital, and £43,400 for interest on

which a dividend on the consolidated stock at the
rate of 5 per cent. was recommended and subse-
quently declared, leaving a balance of £3,168.
The amount expended ou capital account was
£2,654,603, leaving a balance of £31,476 in
_Favour of the company. The progress of the traffic
had been very satisfactory. In the year 1854 the

ON TRUE aa FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ;
kl with the V er7to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble It are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

PRUSSIA_

The King of Prussia, on the 16th, sent for all the
Generals present at Berlin, and (according to the
.New Gazette of Prussia) thus spoke to them :
" I have been called to the throne at an epoch
full of dangers, and with the prospect of combats
in which I shall perhaps have need, gentlemen, of
all your devotedness. If I and the princes who,
like me, desire the maintenance of peace, do not
succeed in turning aside the storm which is rising,
we shall have need of ail our forces to resist and to
defend ourselves. I am happy to see Field-Marshal
Wrangel, who is always full of vigour, still at your
head. For you, my dear Minister at War, I have
not prepared a bed of roses, and you must courage-
ously labour to make the army what it ought to be
for the future protection of Prussia. Let us not
indulge in any illusions. If I do not succeed in
turning aside the conflict, we shall be engaged in a
combat in which we must vanquish if we are not
willing to perish."
The Chamber of Deputies at Berlin the day be-
fore yesterday elected its bureau for the first four
weeks of the session. M. Simson was nominated
President by 201 votes to 82 ; M. Grabour first
Vice-President ; and M. Mathis second. In the
Chamber of Nobles, Prince Hohenlohe was elected
President by 150 votes to 10.

LIVERPOOL-JAN. 18.

There was a moderate attendance of millers and dealers
at this morning's market, and we had a fair sale for wheat,
which may be quoted at about the currencies of this day
se'nnight. Flour a tolerable sale, at last Tuesday's prices.
Indian corn was in improved request, at 38s to 38s 3d per qr
for mixed American, and 40s to 41s for white. Oats and
oatmeal were slow of sale, but unaltered in price. Beans,
peas, and barley a retail sale, at about previous rates. The
market closed firm.

11HE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Groesmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples.:'

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)

APPEAL.-JUDGMENT.-THE OPPICIAL MANAGER OP THE
SHEERNESS WELL COMPANY V. FOLSOM.

This is an appeal from a decision of the Master of the
Rolls, dismissing the plaintiff's bill without costs.

The Lord Chancellor affirm ed the decision of the Master
of the Rolls, and dismissed the appeal with costs. The only
difficulty his lordship had was as to whether he should not
vary the decree and give costs below.

ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.)
SOLLEY V. SOLLEY.-JUDGMENT.

8
98 i

His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—This is a
question on the construction of the wills, and the question
is whether the gift ever in the will takes effect. And
though I thought there was not very great difficulty on
the subject, yet I was desirous to consider it more
carefully in private before expressing any opinion
on it publicly in court. The words of the will
are these : The testator gave certain real estates
to his daughter for life, and then there is a gift over for
distribution. The testator "devised his estates to the issue
of his son or sons, daughter or daughters, lawfully begotten
of their body, to be held by him, her, or them for ever; bu
in case my said son and daughter should die without issue,
then my desire is, that the estate shall be sold by auction."
I think that the gift over is good. His Honour considered
that the words used might be construed as words of purchase,
but he had no doubt that the gift over was good, and
that there was no intestacy. His Honour decreed
that the property should be sold and the proceeds divided
in terms of the will. Costs out of the estate.

JUDGMENT.-PRATS V. THE SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.
.-DOMMINEY V. THE SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.

ME ROYAL SOCIE2Y,

His Honour the Master said—This is a suit to compel
the South-Western Railway Company to restore an old
road called Old Shore-road, by the Southampton
Waters, which is said to have been taken by
the company for the purposes of the railway
in 1846. The railway divided the freehold and
leasehold property,:leaving the latter without a road. The
old road was a serviceable one to both lands, and the plain-
tiff claimed a restoration of the old road, or the company to
purchase his leasehold lands.

His Honour, in considering the claims of both plaintiffs,
came to the conclusion that they were not entitled to claim
a new road from the company either to their freehold or
leasehold lands, and dismissed both the plaintiffs' bills
without costs.

The supplies of wheat were fair, but trade was of a slow
character, sellers not being inclined to give way in fine par-
cels, and the business passing was limited. New Eng-
lish fully is cheaper. Barley also is cheaper. Beans,
oats, and shelling were unchanged.
