UNIVERSITY 4- CLERICAL NEWS.

The Bishop of 'Worcester, the week before last, conse.-
crated in his diocese three new churches, and laid the
first stone for another.

The Rev. Mr. Black, rector of Wolsoken, Norfolk,
has been condemned by the Consistory Court of Norvvidli
to forfeit one-third part of the annual value of his bene-
fice, and costs, by reason of non-residence, without leaver
for three months.

correct list of the names of the actual fellows admitted on

ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTIONS.—A bill has passed
the House of Commons for continuing till the 31st of
December, 1847, an act for suspending the operation of
the new arrangement of dioceses, so far as it affects the
existing ecclesiastical jurisdictions. The registrar 01
every ecclesiastical court is to make a return to the privl
council of all fees for each of the years ending Januarl
sth, 1845, and is to continue to do so annually. The
are also to report on the state of the offices to the Secre
tary of State, who may direct surveys.

THE ROUND CHURCH OF CAMBRIDGE.—The questioO
respecting the restoration of this edifice was decided el
Thursday week in the Consistory Court of Ely, which C
in the hall of Trinity College, the Rev. Chancellor Spark°
presiding, assisted by Dr. Daubeny, of Doctor's Conk*
mons. We may briefly remind our readers that the Ref'
Mr. Faulkner, the incumbent, resisted the confirmation
of the Faculty granted for the restoration of the church,
on the ground that a stone altar and credence table, such
as are used for idolatrous purposes in Popish Chapels, 13.,_°1
been erected without the sanction of a Faculty, and wiul:
out the vicar's previous knowledge. The case was veri
fully argued by Dr. Bayford on behalf of Mr. Faulkner.
and by Dr. Phillitnore on behalf of the Churchwardens;
and the Court directed the Faculty to issue, thus confirm'
ing the erection of the stone altar and credence table'
The Vicar immediately appealed to the Court of the Arch"
bishop.

IMPORTANT PROCEEDING.—On Tuesday, the Bisll
of Exeter suspended for fourteen days, and condemce
in the costs of the proceedings, (taken under the Chure,
Discipline Act,) the Rev. J. Todd, vicar of Liskeard, fot
having purposely omitted, in burying a deceased gentle!
man, the following words in one of the prayers in 03
Burial Service—" as our hope is this our brother cloth.
It appeared that the reverend gentleman bad been cres
dibly informed that the deceased had died in a state ost
intoxication, but that he had discovered since the fune.rhe
that he had been misinformed. The Bishop. in
course of his judgment, gave utterance to the followtofe;
to our minds—most erroneous doctrine :—" God, v",
he vouchsafes to regenerate by baptism, vouchsafes tip,
,0
to give forgiveness of all sins to those who fop,d.
tinue in the state in which they have been placed by deed.
tism. Presumptuous and unrepented sin doe 'noon-
forfeit that state, but, thanks be to God, not Ez°:intox-
firtnity ; and whether in the case of a death un_dred, or a
ication the sin was presumptuous and unrePfilt may be
sin of infirmity, consistent with a lively, thour
languid faith, it is not for man to pronounce.

for £9OO
to £3,036; the latter sought to reduce it to £2OO. The
questions arose relative to a shipment of cotton from
Charleston on the order of Humberston and Frodshator
of Liverpool. Bankruptcy intervening, an attempt was
made to stop the goods in transitu, which was success'
fully resisted, on the ground of the delivery having heel!
completed on shipment in a vessel hired by the pureba_
sers. The dispute on this matter has given rise to as
action at law, and several trials ensued.
The Chief Judge saw no reason why the seller shoula..
not be entitled to payment for his goods. The procee..,
ings on the actions relative to the stoppage in transit"
were no longer material.
Proof enlarged, costs out of the estate of Humberston
and Frodsham.
