MARYLEBONE VESTRY.—The Marylebone Vestry
held their usual weekly meeting on- Saturday. Mr. Elliott
gave notice of a motion for an address to the Queen on the
recent proceedings of the Pope. Sir Peter Laurie supported
the motion, as the addiess was to go to the Queen, but em-
phatically declared thaphe would be no party to an address
to the Bishop of\ Exeter or the Bishop of London, as he con-
sidered them the authors of the late dissensions which had
disgraced the Church. He was interrupted by cries of
" No," " Hear," and "Shame," and great confusion. He
continued" The Bishop of London was at the bottom of all
the Papal usurpations." This declaration produced so much
tumult that Sir Peter could not go on. Several gentlemen
then essayed to address the vestry, but the chairman re-
fused to hear them, as it was disorderly to discuss a notice
of motion. Mr. Glasier rose in great excitement, and de-
manded to be heard :—" I'm a true Protestant.—(Cries of
" Chair.") I'll not be put down—(Chair, order, chair)—
I'll face the Pope. I'll never allow the Pope to usurp the
Queen."— (Shouts of laughter.)
The Emperor of Russia proposes, it is said, to have
a tunnel bored under the Neva, similar to that executed by
Mr. Brunel under the Thames. M. Alaric Falconnet, a
celebrated French engineer, has been applied to to furnish
plans for this undertaking.—Galignani.
Yesterday a general assembly of the Academicians
was held at the Royal Academy of Arts, in Trafalgar-square,
when Charles Lock Eastlake, Esq., was elected president, in
the room of Sir Martin Archer Shee, deceased, and Mr.
James Clarke Hook was elected an associate.
It is good to respect ancient foundations, but we are
net, on that account, to neglect founding something in our
turn.— Eliza Cook's Journal.
ROYAL MARINES —WooLwlcu, Nov. 4.=—Colonel
Second Commandant D. J. Ballingall, of the Plymouth divi-
sion, is appointed to the Portsmouth division, and Colonel
Second Commandant J. R. Coryton, of the Portsmouth divi-
sion, is appointed to the Plymouth division. The appoint-
ment of Captain W. H. Parke to be superintendent of the
Laboratory of the Portsmouth division of Royal Marines,
vice Captain Robert Henry, deceased, is dated October 30,
18'.0. First-Lieutenant Dunbar, with 1 sergeant and 10
privates, joined the head-quarters of the Woolwich division
on Saturday. Nov. 2, from Port Essington. Captain Buchanan
has joined 'from Admiralty leave. The detachment recently
serving in the Bellerophon, 78, on the Mediterranean station,
is expected to return to Woulwich this evening, or in the
course of to-morrow.
IMPORTANT REGULATION REGARDING PATENTS or
INVENTIONS.—The Attorney-General has issued an order,
bearing date 2d inst., requiring that an outline description in
writing or drawing shall be deposited in all cases prior to
the granting of " Letters Patent." This will be a great
boon to inventors, who have long complained cf the impro-
priety of granting patents on vague " titles" as affording
opportunity for fraud. One of the principal amendments
being now obtained, the next step should be in the reduction
of fees to a more moderate scale.—Patent Journal.
RAILWAY COMMUNICATION.—Kilkenny is at length
connected by rail with Dublin. Fiiday at two o'clock an
engine with the flag flying, and drawing twenty-four wag-
gons, ladsn with ballast an,. materials, arrived from Bagnals-
town at the station of the Waterford and Kilkenny Company
in our city, amidst the cheers of the inhabitants, hastily as-
sembled to witness the unexpected sight. The " William
Largan" engine and another train of eN aggons arrived at the
station at four o'clock. The manner in which the works
connecting the South-Eastern Extension with the Waterford
and Kilkenny line at Lavistown have been executed do the
utmost credit to the sub-contractors, Messrs. Meehan and
Mnlquany. The line will be open for general trafiie early in
the month.—Kilkenny Moderator.
WINDSOR, SATURDAY.—There will be four theatri-
cal performances at Windsor Castle before Christmas. The
first is fixed to take place on the 25th instant. There will
also be a performance after Christmas, but the day has not
yet been named.
ANOTHER Mova —We last week stated that the
Rev. Henry Wilberforce was reported as bent on the reten-
tion of his living at East Farleigh, until fairly dislodged. It
has Once ben communicated to us on good authority that
the Rev. John 11. Wynne, Fellow of All Souls College, Ox-
ford, who set Mr. Wilberforce the example of secession some
months ago, and who is now sojourning in the Eternal City,
has, by the advice of the Propaganda, declined resigning his
fellowship at All Souls obtained by him as it was on the faith
of Protestant oaths and subscriptions. Mr. Wynne main-
tains, that as All Souls was a Popish foundation, he is the
kind of person whom its founder would have chosen to share
his benevolence, and whom the statutes of the college con-
templated.--Christian Times.
It is rumoured that the Rev. Dr. Pusey is about to
undertake the evening parish sermon of St. Mary the Virgin,
with a view to promote the spread of Puseyite doctrines

articles. Two- thirds of the value of the deposit are at once
advanced, and the loan is mace for six months and a day ;
but if, at the expiration of that period, the depositor should
declare himself unable to redeem it, another period of six
months is allowed. At the end of the second six months the
pledges are sold, but if they yield more than the amount ad-
vanced, the" difference is given to the original owner. The
Marquis de Llio is president of this charitable establishment,
and he has just addressed a letter to the clergy of the diocese,
praying them to make its advantages known. It bears the
name of the Pawnbroking Retablishment cf Our Lady of
Hope. In the year 1849, 5,666 persons availed themselves
of its generosity.— Galignani,
