DR. PUSEY

In explanation of some points connected with his protest,
Da. PuseY has addressed the following lellcr ti?. the
Vice-
Chancellor. • •
Vice-Cfnuicellor,—When I drew up my protest, I
lot myself bound not to allude to the fact, that after it was
announced to me that my sermon had been condemned, I
received confidential communications from yourself. 1 had
been informed, when I received them, that the fact of my
having received them, as well as their contents, was strictly
confidential, and this injunction to entire silence had not
been removed. I felt it therefore even my duty to ascertain
that there was in my protest nothing which could trench
upon that confidence.
" I expressed to yourself privately, at the time, my sense
of the kindness of pour intentions personally, in making to
me the first of those communications ; and of this I was
in my protest, I spoke of not casting ' any
yourself individually.'
ituh'i•Pn'ukTtisontgitFe uhno, epnaturen of those communications I can make no
allusion, since you saw right to impose silence upon me. It
its sufficient to say, that after they were concluded, I received
a message from yourself, ' Dr. Pusey has wey full authority
for saying that he has had no hearing.' It ever was, and
is, nay full conviction, that had I bad the hearing, which (for
the sake of the university and the church) I earnestly asked
for, I must have bean acquitted.
" These communications, then, in no way affect my pro-
test. I add this explanation, because, while I retain my
strong conviction that my sentence was both ' unstatutable
and unjust,' it is right, since I am now at liberty so to do,
to acknowledge the kindness of your own intentions to me
individually. I remain, Mr. Vice-Chancellor, your humble
" E. B. PUSEY.

The will of the late Duke of Norfolk has just been proved
in Doctors'-commons, by the oath of the Earl of Surrey,
(now Duke of Norfolk,) the only son of the late duke, and
sole executor named in the will, which is dated 26th March,
100. He bequeaths the sum of £20,000, which had been
standing in the funds for many years, to his son, the Earl of
Surrey. To Lady Mary Howard and Lady Adelizit Howard
be gives £5,000 each. To Lord Fitzalnn £1,000; and vari-
ous legacies to the several branches of his family. The whole
of his plate he gives to his son, but directs that it may he
considered as " heirlooms." The residue of his property,
both real and personal, be gives to his son, who succeeds to
the title of " Earl Marshal of England." The personal pro-
perty withi❑ the province of Canterbury has been sworn►
under £120,000. This abstract, of course, gives no idea of
the great wealth of the late duke. For many years previous
to his death he was intent on increasing the revenues of the
title by adding to them estates contiguous to his own mag-
nificent domains in different parts of England. In Suriey
and Sussex alone his purchases were enormously extensive.
The smallness of the legacies to the other members of his
family may be regarded as an indication of his " ruling
passion," to aggrandise the successor to his title and more
than princely revenues.—The Brilannia.

EARLDOM or BUCHAN.—We are authorised to state, that
Sir Colin Mackenzie, of Kilcoy, whose claim to this ancien,
peerage, as being the representative of Lady Marjory Fraser
of luverallochy, the eldest daughter of James, the seventh
Earl of Bucher), was supported by a train of apparently the
most conclusive historical. documentary, and oral evidence,
and confirmed by the opinions of the most eminent lawyers
and genealogists both in England and Scotland, his recently
and accidentally discovered a document, from which it would
appear that Lady Margaret Gray, and not Sir Colin's ances-
tress, was the eldest daughter. Even the existence of this
Lady Margaret was never once mentioned by any of the
peerage writers►, or, which is still more strange, so much as
alluded to in the extensive family correspondence of the
time. On the contrary, it was uniformly stated, by several
branches of the family who have assumed the title, and by
all the writers whose name); have weight as peerage autho-
rities in Scotland, that Lady Marjory Fraser. of Inverallochy,
was the eldest daughter of the seventh Earl. As her repre-
sentative, Sir Cohn Mackenzie war, consequently, the pe►son
deemed legally entitled to the honours. Though the un-
looked-for discovery alluded to was known only to Sir Colin,
he yet, in accordance with the feelings which actuated hint
throughout, immediately announced it to Mr. Douglas, of
Brigton, in Forfarshire, whom he learned to be the direct
lineal descendant of Lady Margaret Gray. To this gentle-
man, and to his family, the communication proved a matter
of no little surprise, as neither they nor any in their neigh.
bourhood had ever heard even a surmise of such a right.—

During a whole month, Mrs. Fry has been fully occupied in
public religious services, visiting prisons and schools, and in
holding meetings at her own apartments for charitable and
pious purposes. Persons of all ranks and denomsnations have
frequented her meetings and Soirees, and she has laboured
with unwearied zeal to do them good.

VITALITY IN TIIE W!RE-WORAI.—A short time ago, Mr.
E. Ingainelis, of Eastville, picked upwards of 200 of these
destructive insects from cabbage stalks which had been
recently ploughed up, and kept them closely shut up without
sustenance. On opening on the 22d ult. the receptacle inn
which they had been enclosed (utter a period of five weeks),
fed upon a slice of raw potato
they were found to be all living.
They have since been
separated, one part being
whilst the others arc destined to live upon air, with the view
of testing their vitality.
THE WEATHER IN THE WEST OF SCOTLAND.—The
weather continues cold and unfavourable to vegetation, with-
out any signs of improvement. Saturday, rain fell heavily
during the day and night. Sunday was dry, and the wind
blew fresh from the north-east. In the distance the top of
Benlomond was to be seen covered with snow, a circum-
stance which rarely happens on the 4th of June. This
—unde-
sirable state of the weather, we observe, is beginning to
affect the different grain markets in Eneland and Scotland,
by giving an impetus to speculation as to the result of the
coming harvests.
Glasgow Chronicle.
1301,NRY*, Sussex.—Aa Mr. and Mrs. Renville, an elderly
couple, residing at Old Malthouse Farm, in this quiet village,
were sitting at supper on Thursday evening, the door was
opened by a party of ruffians, six in number, having their
faces covered with crape. Two of them immediately seized
Mr. Renville, and two others compelled his wife to unlock
the drawer where their money was kept, while the remaining
pair kept watch. They found about £lO in the house, with
which sum they decamped, having first locked the inmates
into the parlour, in order to prevent pursuit. Active steps
have been taken by the East Sussex constabulary to discover
the thieves, who it is conjectured live in the parish, but
hitherto their attempts have not been unsuccessful.
