of the church and anti-church parties. Mr. Gutteridge, who was proposed by the church party, polled 499; Mr. Weston, proposed by the anti-church party, polled 78; thereby leaving Mr. Gutteridge in a majority of 421. The Rev. Edward Field, Vicar of English Bicknor, and formerly Fellow of Queen's College, Oxford, inspector of schools in this diocese, last week commenced the inspection of schools in Birmingham, which will terminate his labours. The rev. gentleman has already visited the other parts of the diocese, and has closely and minutely examined the several schools in the archdeaconries of Worcester and Coventry, comprising the entire counties of Worcester and Warwick. Much good will, no doubt, result from this inspection, in the way both of revival and improvement, which is of course the object contemplated by the National Society. YORKSHIRE. The annual visitation of the venerable Archdeacon Corbett will be held at Rotherham, on Tuesday, the 15th of June next; at Doncaster, on the 16th; at Pontefract, on the 17th; and at York, on the 18th. The grand window of stained glass, presented by the patrons of the Leeds parish church, and executed by David Evans, of Shrewsbury, in his very best style, has been fixed at the western end. It contains the arms of the Bishop of Ripon, the Vicar of Leeds, and of the 25 patrons. A new church is intended to be built at Farsley, in the parish of Calverley; the site for which has been generously given by Thomas Thornhill, Esq., the lord of the manor of Calverley, besides a sum of 1000l. towards the expense of building it. The inhabitants of Pontefract have begun a subscription for the purchase of a new organ for the parish church, and although as yet confined to the town, the subscriptions amount to 1267. The organ is to cost about 3001.-Liverpool Paper. ADDRESS TO ARCHDEACON WRANGHAM. -Ata meeting of the East Riding of Yorkshire, recently held at Beverly-Archdeacon Wilberforce in the chair-an address was voted to the Venerable Francis Wrangham, late Archdeacon of the East Riding of the diocese of York, upon his retirement from the archdeaconry through ill-health and infirmity. ST. LUKE'S CHURCH, LEEDS.-On Sunday, May 9th, this small but elegant edifice was opened for divine worship, by licence from the Bishop of Ripon, until consecration, when appropriate sermons were preached, morning and evening, by the Rev. T. B. Ferris, the incumbent; after which, collections were made in aid of the funds of the church, to the amount of 177. and upwards. Two meetings recently held at Hull, for promoting the erection of additional churches at Hull, proved very successful. Before the close of the morning meeting, the subscriptions received amounted to 13007., and since then the sum has been more than doubled; the subscriptions now being no less than 32127. WALES. The Earl of Cawdor has liberally given a large piece of ground at Einlyn, Carmarthenshire, as the site for the erection of a new church, of a sufficient size to admit of there being a spacious cemetery attached. CHEPSTOW CHURCH.-The restoration of this fine relic of Norman architecture is now completed. The chancel and transepts, which were destroyed by the fall of the tower about 150 years since, have been rebuilt, and the church, which was originally in the form of a cathedral, is now restored to its former dimensions, and contains 1800 sittings, 800 of which are freethus affording increased accommodation to 1000 persons. The inhabitants of Chepstow are principally indebted to the Lord Bishop of Llandaff for this desirable improvement. His lordship not only contributed the munificent sum of 300l. towards the expense, which has exceeded 3500l., but he has exerted himself successfully in procuring subscriptions to the building fund.

David Waddell to the Church and Parish of Stow, in the Presbytery of Lauder and county of Edinburgh, vacant by the death of Dr. John Cormack.-Ga zette. IRELAND. Diocese of Armagh.-The Rev. John H.

CHURCH EXTENSION.-In the short space of two years, thirty-one thousand pounds have been subscribed in the diocese of Down and Connor, (comprising only the county of Antrim and part of the county of Down,) for the building and endowing of churches alone. ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION.-It appears from the Report of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for Ireland to Viscount Ebrington, that the receipts of the commission for the year ending August 1st, 1840, amounted to 161,4077., and the disbursements to about 146,4271., leaving a balance of 14,9807. WESTERN AUSTRALIA.-The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts has resolved to maintain a clergyman in the colony of Western Australia, whose duty will consist in visiting the several scattered townships in that settlement; and the Rev. George King has been selected for this service. NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS. RECEIVED: Clericus Cestriensis-A Catholic of the Anglican Church-L. C.— C. M. Dubitans-D. B.-Miles-Mr. Winning-F. M. H.-Priscus--and since these notices went to the press, a note from C. M., which shall be attended to; and some poetry from a Constant Reader, which, obviously, could not have been inserted in this Number, and which the Editor has not yet had leisure to read. The following are in type, but it was not possible to get them into the present Number:-C. M.-B.-Lay Author-A. H.-Silas-o .—Meleager. The Editor is much obliged to Theta Lancastriensis, and hopes soon to write to him. He is very sorry that he has not yet written to F. W. C., as he has long meant to do. A Curate, who has for nearly two years performed the daily service in bis church, inquires whether, when the rubric and canon direct the minister to cause a bell to be tolled a convenient time before he begins, it is meant that he should do it at his own cost, or at that of the parish? A Correspondent inquires what is the really humane and Christian course to be pursued with respect to superannuated horses, dogs, &c.? A Correspondent will see that the Editor has used the discretion allowed him by omitting a postscript-not from any objection to it, or to anything to which it refers, but simply because, in little matters of that kind, where no harm was meant, and no harm was done, it is practically better, for many reasons, not to carry on explanations. R. K.'s letter shall be attended to. "A Constant Reader" has requested that the following notice may be inserted. The Editor, in complying with his request, feels it right to add, that he does not know whence it comes, or what it refers to. "PHILEBRÆUS will find a note for him at the Office of the Magazine, 13, Henrietta Street, Covent Garden." The Editor has received the letter of P. H., and hopes soon to write to him. INDEX TO VOL.
