This case originated out of the unhappy dissensions
which have for several years existed between the
rector and his parishioners, owing to the innovations
introduced by the rev. gentleman in the services of
the church. The whole of the parochial func-
tionaries, the vestry-clerk, the officers of the church,
and a large number of the principal inhabitants were
present, and appeared deeply interested in the result.
Mr. INGHAM said the simple question for him to de-
cide was, whether the rector was entitled to two
quarters' salary or not, and whether the churchwarden
had shown sufficient cause why he should not pay the
money. He must decide that the rev. complainant
was entitled to the sum claimed.

SUPPLY OF WATER IN PARIS.-Not only have the
larger fountains been increased in number, but in every
street at almost every hundred yards are small fountains
placed, which play two or three times a day. They
atTord an abundant supply for watering the streets in
the heat of summer, and are at the same time a means
of cleanliness, which those who know Paris well can
fully appreciate. The fresh, char water, after running
through the streets, finds its way into the sewers, which
likewise benefit by the supply.--Builder.
