THE BISHOP OF OXFORD has issued an inhibition to
the Rev. Dr. Maurice and the Rev. J. West, of Oxford,
against further church collections in aid of Moraviao
missions.

THE Brsitor OF RIPON will te absent from England
during the month of June, having undertaken, at the
request of the Bishop of London, to hold confirmations
at the following places during that period—namely, at
Hanover, on the Sth ; at Hamburg, on the 14th ; at
Berlin, on the 17th ; and at Dresden, on the 2lst. W
ra
understand that the Chancellor of the diocese has
.received
a commission from the Bishop to confer institutions and
grant licenses daring his absence.
EPISCOPAL LIBERALITY. The late Bishop of St.
Asaph, Dr. Carey, in addition to munificent subscriptions
to various societies during his life, left £20,000, payable
on the decease of his widow, to charitable institutions.
He was Bishop of St. Asaph for about 16 years ; during
that period several valuable livings in his gift became
vacant—some of them English parishes—yet in no in-
stance did he introduce into a living in the diocese an!
relative or private friend. The same may be said of the
present Bishop of Bangor, Dr. Bethel, who has presides
over the see for 23 years. But neither was Dr. Care!'
nor is Dr. Bethel, of the Whig-Russell school.

It is the son of the Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel—no,l
the gentleman himself—who has arrived in Australia, and
been appointed a magistrate.

THE TEETOTALLERS OF GLASGOW have been holding a'
conference to discuss the propriety of adopting the Maine
Liquor Law, or rather of recommending its adoption to
the legislature. A good number of the " canny Scots
were against the interference of the.legislature.
THE TEA DUTIES.—It appears that in the month
ended the sth ult. the quantity of tea entered for home
consumption was only 2,359,865 lb. against 4,704,092 lb.
of the same period of the preceding year. The difference
arose in consequence of the new duties.

THE TURKISH QUESTION has caused an advance in
the rate for war risks at Lloyd's on vessels to the Blac*
Sea to 30s. and upwards, the rate a fortnight ago having
been about 10s. As regards vessels to St. Petersburg's
some goods by the steamer just starting have been insured
from capture for an extra 55.—limes.

to New York, on the 20th of May, in about 20 deg. west
longitude, and 47 deg. north latitude. There were forty-
two persons on board, passengers and crew. The vessel

seamen, and one passenger were picked up.

FOURTH, OR DUKE OF LANCASTER'S OWN LIGIO

cised daily for several hours in the manual and platoon
exercise on a large and commodious field within one wile

RUMOURED RETIREMENT OF LORD ABERDEEN.'
Lord Aberdeen is said to be anxious to retire from the
cares of office, and having fulfilled his office of amalgv
mating into one cohesive mass the two bodies of Whig°
and Peelites, he meditates retirement at the end of the,
present session, when Lord John Russell will resume hie
old place at the head of her Majesty's councils.—London
Correspondent of Inverness Courier.
THE ROUND HILL, BRIORTON.—The ninth purchase
of land for the Conservative Land Society has just beets,
made at Brighton. The estate is known as the Ronne
Hill, not far from St. Peter's Church, at the top of the
Steyne, and commands extensive views of the sea, town
and surrounding country. The property is close to the
new pron.enade called The Level, and is at a sbert
distance from the station, from which the estate can be
seen. The Round Hill being within the limits of the
borough, gives votes both to Brighton and the eastern
division of Sussex.

RUSTIC CREDULITY.—Richard Brindle, dplree;atoylneaab;robsu.nt r. theer,

little village in the neighbourhood of Lancaster, has been
cheated out of 150 sovereigns. acquired by frugality an

d
to draw it out, by a gipsy woman whom he bad met on-
his master's farm, and who had charmed him into the
act by promising that she could get him a Wife—one who
had " a bit of money, a bit of land and three or four
beasts," an idea which pleased they poor old bachelor
mightily. The police are on the alert, but the giP9Y
woman and her companions are not forthcoming.
HORRIBLE SUICIDE.—An appalling act of self de;
' struction was committed on Wednesday at the Bull sea
George Inn, Dartford. The deceased, Henry Lavender
Culmer, was manager for Messrs. Saunders and OtleY!
of London. He was single, and 34 years old. He went
to bed about 11 at night, having asked the servant to
call him at 7. She did so, but received no answer, e"
about 10 o'clock the door was burst open, when .9
horrible scene was disclosed. Deceased, partly dressed?
was lying on the floor in a pool of blood, his head literally
severed from his body, nothing but the vertebrae sus-
taining it. Close to his head was a razor ; a pistol re.;''
cently discharged lay on the table, covered with blooc,
and also another, likewise covered with blood, loaded_
but having no cap on. A hole was discovered beside bt.
ear, which had received the contents of the pistol, bu.t;:.
is supposed that the first discharge not proving effeeti,!,,,
he had taken up the second pistol, but could not
charge it in consequence of the cap being off, and that. 0,1
must then have resorted to the razor. His father be',
committed suicide about 12 years ago. The .itlrY
turned a verdict of " Temporary insanity." #s.°2lti.
