CHURCH REPOTtli.—The Bishbp of Tbam, Dr. Plun-
kett, has deprived one of the absentee rectors of that dio-
cese of his benefice, and appointed thereto the working
curate. There are law proceedings instituted by the pre-
late against four absentee beneficed clergymen from the
same diocese.

The House of Lords have confirmed the Lord Chan-
cellor's judgment in the case of Betton's Charity ; and the
whole sum of, it is said, £200,000 is to be appropriated to
the support of Church of England schools.
CHURCH EXTENSION.—The meeting of the incor-
porated society for promoting the enlargement, building
and repairing of churches and chapels, for the present
month, was held at St. Martin's-place Trafalgar-square,
on Monday last ; his Grace, the Archbishop of Can-
terbury in the chair. The committee voted new grants of
money towards building eight additional churches or
chapels, rebuilding one, and enlarging or otherwise in-
creasing the accommodation in fourteen existing churches
or chapels ; making 23 grants in all. The new places of
worship are to be erected for districts in the parishes of
St. Michael, Lichfield; St. Clement, Truro • Kingscle: e,
near Newsbury, Berks ; Barnstaple ; Wookey, near
Wells, Godalming, Surrey; Windsor, Berks ; and St.
Lawrence, Kent. The churches to be enlarged, &c. are
situated in the parishes of Castle Church, Staffordshire ;
Bromsgrove, Worcester ; Wormley, near Waltham Cross,
Herts ; Beoley, Worcester ; Coombe Bisset, Wilts ;
Ilkeston, Derby ; Uppington, near Shrewsbury ; Buck-
fastleigh, Devon; Cheetham Chapelry, in the parish of
Manchester; All Saints, Hereford; Penn, near Wolver-
hampton Llannwydden, Montgomeryshire; Jevington,
Sussex; Duke's Place, London; and Worcester (Block-
house Church.) Four of the districts in which new
churches are to be erected, are situated about 2 miles from
the nearest church ; and in all the districts assisted
the bulk of the population consists of the poorer classes
of society, for whom no provision of church accommo-
dation now exists. By the erection of the eight additional
churches, and the enlargement, &c. of the existing build-
ings, 6,679 seats will be added to the present insufficient
provision of church room, 5,604 of which will be free; and
in several instances the whole of the church will be thrown
open without reserve.
