N.B.—The inte.rference.with the monopoly which the London
and North-western Company have so long enjoyed has led that
Company to publish a Caution to Travellers, for which there is
no justification. A single trial will suffice to show that impor-
tant savings can be effected, and the journey performed over
the Slrreu•sbury Lines with the greatest convenience.

THE MEMORY OF THE DEAD..—The Tablet of Saturday.
in its notice of the death of the great Duke, remarks, with
that spirit of charity which is the leading charcteristic of
the " infallible church," the " Duke of Wellington went
with great decorum and regularity ' to transact' his wor-
ship at the Queen's private chapel ;" and, kindly adds
the writer, " judging no man's heart, we hope and trust
that in his latter days it may have been all right with him
in these respects ; but somehow we cannot help thinking
of him as of some great ' old Pagan,' who lived a couple
of thousand years ago."

CHURCH DISCIPLINE BY POOR LAW GUARDIANS.—
The Rev. R. Cobbold, who has for sixteen years past
gratuitously served the Chaplaincy of the Eye Union, hav-
ing placed a lad from the workhouse, who had been guilty
of immorality, in a conspicuous position before the altar-
rails in his church, (which is attended by the paupers),
during divine service, the Board of Guardians held a meet-
ing for the purpose of inquiring into the " improper and
injudicious conduct of the chaplain." Mr. Cobbold at-
tended the meeting, and after justifying the course he had
pursued, resigned the chaplaincy. The board thereon
passed a vote of thanks for his past services, at the same
time expressing a hope that he would resume the chap-
aincy. This, however, I\lr, Cobbold declined to do.
