ECCLESIASTICAL PREFERMENTS.

On Monday last the Rev. Dr. Payne, Fellow of
St. John's College, in this University, was Hemmed
by the Lord Bishop of Oxford to the augmented
Curacy of Northmore, in this County, on the nomi-
nation of the President and Scholars of that Society.
On the same day the Rev. John Shuldham, M.A.
and Student of Christ Church, was licenced to the
augmented Curacy of Cowley, on the nomination of
the Dean and Chapter of Christ Church.

The Rev. Charles Carr Clerke, M.A. has been
presented to the Vicarage of St. Mary Magdalen,- in
this city, by the Dean and Chapter of Christ Church,
void by the resignation of the Reverend Charles
Henry Cox.
The Rev. J. P. Cosserat, M.A., late FelloW of
Exeter College, in this University, has been insti-
tuted to the Rectory of St. Martin, Exeter.
The Lord Bishop of London has presented the
Rey. William Streatfeild, M.A. Fellow of T►inity
College, in this University, to the Vicarage of East
Ham, in the County of Essex, and Diocese of London.
The Rev. W. N. Darnell, Prebendary of Durham,
has been presented by the Dean and Chapter to the
Vicarage of Norham, North Durham, vacant by the
death of the Rev. Mr. Watkins.

The Rev. Egerton Anthony Brydges, B.A. of
Trinity College, Cambridge, to the Rectory of
Denton, with the Perpetual Curacy of Swingfield,
Kent ; patron, his father, Sir Egerton Brydges, Bart.
The elevation of Dr. Murray to the Episcopal
Bench vacates the Bishopric of Sodor and Man, to
which the Rev, John Bird Sumner, Prebendary of
Durham, is appointed : he is the elder brother of
the Bishop of Llandaff, and we shall therefore witness
the somewhat unusual circumstance of two brothers
being on the List, though not on the Bench of
Bishops ; for it may not be known to some of our
readers, that though the Bishop of Sodor and Man
has no power of voting or of speaking in the House
of Lords, and has no seat on the Episcopal Bench,
he has a chair placed for his sole occupation at the
end of that Bench. Mr. Stunner' it is understood,
vacates the valuable Living of Mapledurham, in
Berkshire; and either from some informality, or from
the peculiarity of the case, the patronage of it does
not devolve to the Crown, but will be exercised by
its proper patron, the Provost and Fellows of Eton
College.
