ANOTHER ArosTAcY TO RoME.-We can state it
as fact, hat the Rev. Daniel Parsons, curate OF
Harden, Willis, long known as tractarian. has Sc

Standard, under date Oxford, Sept l3, says +" that
It is publicly stated by Mr.. Newman's friends here,
that he has made up his mind to resign the living

resignation is In the hands OF the Bishop OF Oxford
and 1t only remains with his lordshlp to accept it,"

TIE SAILORS AND THE SHIPPING OFFICEs.-Liver-

tced in our columns, long vlndicatory statement
has been put forth by the latter which, after some
slight recrimlnation, they state they have never
charged more than the old commission of 2s., for
providing man with vessel The allegation that
the commission was attempted to be raised from 2st
to los, which was the prime cause of the present
movement, Is scarcely noticed. The publication os

THE WEATHER AND THE CRoPs,-Though an I'M

In Sept. last year, upward of 1000 600 qrs. were
imported, which has all gone into consumption;

even in a slight degree These considerations are
already beginning TO affect the minds Of holders,
and much less anxiety has lately been evinced to
sell. The trade has consequently assumed firmrr

held since last, the retrograde movement has
not only been checked, but the value OF old wheat
