" A most delicious compound."—llerald.
" The patronage of the highest lady in the land has been ex-
tended to it."—llatttpshire Advertiser.

" It combines the sweetness of the grape, the fragance of the
lime, and the exhilirating qualities of champagne."—Liverpool
Courier.

" Hudson's Milk Punch leaves all other libations at an im-
measurable distance.'—Sun.
" As delicious a mixture as ever passed the palate of great
Jove himself."—Liverpool
" More easily imagined than described."—Kentish Obs4rver.
" Decidedly the most delicious cordial ever tasted."—
Standard.
" It combines everything that is congenial to the constitu-
tion."—Sun.
" No conception can be fbrmed of its flavour."—Northamp•

An extraordinary express, in anticipation of the over-
land mail from India, arrived in London on Tuesday.
Our advices from Bombay are not of a more recent date
than reached us by the last mail. The news brought by
this conveyance is of little political interest. From the
north-west we bare no, fling, but vague rumours, on which
it is impossible to place any dependence. It is said that
the Sikhs h;ve determ.

to remain under arms the whole day. Towards evening,
the greater part of the people again returned home. It is
stated that the Roman Catholic clergy again strenuously
assisted the executive. A meeting of the authorities and
others was held in the evening, and steps taken to afford
extensive employment to somehundreds of the poor. On
Wednesday, some hundreds of men, who had entered the
town v

the relief committee, who succeeded in setting them to
work in cutting down a hill on the road to Fermoy.

UNIVERSITY 4- CLERICAL NEWS.

Dr Parkinson yesterday commenced his duties as prin-
cipal of St. Bee's College.
The congregation of St. Matthew's Church, Birming-
ham, met on Tuesday, and presented to the Rev. G. S.
Bull, their minister, a purse of one hundred guineas.
__ _

The Church and State Gazette says that Dr. Slade,
vicar of Bolton, and prebend of Chester, is to be the new
Bishop of Manchester.
The Rev. Hugh Stowell, incumbent of Christ Church,
Manchester, has been presented with the munificent sum
of £2,000, as a token of respect for his exertions in the
cause of Protestant principles during the last twenty years.
CHURCH AFFAIRS.—We understand that, in conse-
quence of a representation made to the Bishop of Wor-
cester, by a reverend gentleman who was visiting at
Leamington, the Rev. Mr. Bittlestone, one of the curates
of this parish, has been suspended, in consequence of his
holding the Roman Catholic doctrines of auricular con-
fession and tran.ubstantiatinn.—Record.
THE ARCHBISHOP OF YORK.—The occasion of his
Grace's return from Nunehatn Park, Oxford, to Bishops-
thorpe, on Wednesday, was an occasion of great re.
joicing. The horses were taken from the carriage, and
it was drawn forward to the,palace by the villagers. The
entrance to the palace was decorated with a triumphal
arch, bearing across its centre the inscription, " God save
our gracious benefactor."

REMARKABLE LONGEVITY IN THE SERVICE OF THEIR
DIVINE MASTER.-1 he present minister of the vale o‘
Seathwaite, the Rev. Mr, Tyson, justly held in the high-
est respect by the whole of his parishioners, and his pre-
decessor, the Rev. Mr. Walker, surnamed for his many
surprising aril inestimab!e qualities, " Wonderful Walk-
er," have held the living of Seathwaite for one hundred
and twelve years; the former having succeeded Mr.
Walker in 1802, who then died in the sixty-ninth year of
his ministry.
BURIAL SERVICE.—By the act 9 and 10 Victoria, c.
61, which came int ) operation on the 26th of August last,
provision is made to enable the burial service to be per-
formed in one chapel, where contiguous burial grounns
are provided for two or more parishes or places. The
Bishop of the diocese may declare, in the sentence of con-
secration, that a chapel is intended for the use of the se-
veral parishes or praces. The act is to be extended to
any parish or place already or hereafter to be formed un-
der the provisions of the Church Building Acts, and also
any new parish already or to be hereafter constituted by or
under the proceedings of the Ecclesiastical Commission-
ers for England.

NEW CIIURCHES.—The 26th annual report of her Ma-
jesty's Commissioners for building New Churches, was
issued on Thursday. The commissioners in their last
report, stated that 343 churches had been completed, in
which accommodation had been provided for 402,259 per-
sons, including 225,217 free seats appropriated to the use
of the poor. They now state, that 27 churches have, by
the aid of grants from the sum placed at their disposal,
been since completed, in which 27 churches accomodation
has been provided for 20,826 persons, including 12,879
free seats appropriated to the use of the poor. Thus, in
the whole, 370 churches have now been completed, and
provision has therein been made for 423,085 persons, in-
cluding 238,096 free seats appropriated to the use of the
poor. There are 33 churches now in the course of build-
ing, and plans for more than 18 chu ches have been ap-
proved of, and they have under consideration other plans.
The commissioners state that "it will appear from this
report that during the present year considerable progress
has been made by the board in the important branch of
duty intrusted to them, of forming new parishes or dis-
tricts. Numerous other divisions of parishes are under
consideration."

The Committee of the National Society for Promoting
the Education of the poor in the principles of the Esta-
blished Church, have resolved on the establishment of
two examinations yearly, analogous to those in the Uni-
versities of Oxford and Cambridge, with a view to impart
an additional stimulus to persons preparing themselves for
the office of schoolmasters. To those who creditably
pass-, formal certificates will be given, and there will be
immediately afterwards an examination of a higher kind,
in which candidates who shall have passed the first trial
will have an opportunity of showing their proficiency in
any additional branches of knowledge, directly or indi-
rectly useful to an elementary teacher in the exercise of
his vocation. For the " pass" examination, the subjects
are to be reading, writing, grammar, the Liturgy and
Scriptures, arithmetic, geography, history, vocal music,
and the theory and practice of teaching. In the " exa-
mination for honours," most stress will be laid on high
proficiency in the branches above enumerated—on skill in
English composition, the elements of history and philoso-
phy, and knowledge of classics and mathematics. The
first examination is to take place in London at Christmas
next.

THE SEE OF CHESTER.—ORBER, IN COUNCIL.-Fri-
day's Gazette contains an order in council made on the
27th ult., varying the amounts proposed by former
schemes of the ecclesiastical commissioners to be contri-
buted by some sees and to be received by others. These
alterations are based on later returns from the several
sees. The sums payable to or by the commissioners are
to be those stated in the fourth column of the ft.llowing
table: such payments to take effect " from and after the
avoidance of the said sees respectively

Another part of the scheme takes the jurisdiction of pa-
rishes, churches, and chapels, out of various peculiar
jurisdictions, or exempt from jurisdiction, to vest the
jurisdiction thereover in the bishop and the archdeacons
only. This provision has been carried into effect in the
diocese of Canterbury, London, Chichester, and Lincoln,
and the present order in council extends it (with the con-
sent of the Archbishop of York and the Bishop of Ches-
ter) to all parishes and places locally situate within the
limits of the diocese of York, Chester, and Lichfield, and
of the several archdeaconries respectively. The exceptions
are the cathedral churches of and within the said several
dioceses, and the Collegiate Church of Manchester, which
are to remain and be subject to the jurisdiction and visi-
tation of any, to which they are now by law respectively
subject, and to none other.
