value of see

There is some doubt as to the origin of this great personage: report says, that a stone-mason's wife, in East Cheap, had the ho nour of his birth; and that his father or cousin, the duke of Rutland, had another son by the same woman, lately one of the Welsh judges, but now dead. However this may be, this seems certain, that his grace was created archbishop younger than any of his predecessors; that the right hon. Charles Manners, speaker of the house of commons, salary £6000, is his son; that Thomas, lord Manners, lord chancellor of Ireland, is his brother; and that Lord Charles Manners Sutton is aide-decamp to the Prince Regent, with the rank of colonel in the army.

The sheriff-depute in Scotland is not, as the name implies, the deputy of the principal, but an entirely independent officer, appointed by the crown, and performing functions which cannot be exercised by the high sheriff. He has an extensive civil and criminal jurisdiction in actions for debt, and the trial of certain species of robbery. The duties of this office are usually discharged by a substitute. The sheriff of Edinburgh has £800 per annum of Lanark, £500; and the remaining twentyseven sheriffships have incomes from £300 to £400 a year.

- political commissioner Mr. searcher, Cape of Good Hope The Tenters appear to hold very comfortable situations at the Cape. For a more particular detail of the enormous emoluments attached to civil offices in this colony, the reader is referred to our remarks on Mr. Smut's office. En passant, we cannot help suggesting to our pious and virtuous chancellor of the exchequer, as he has thrown out some hints about affording facilities to emigrants to the Cape, the propriety of applying a portion of emoluments of offices in the colony to the assistance of the new settlers, rather than imposing upon the already over-burdened parishes of this country, the necessity of raising a subscription for that purpose.

Tomline, George, (formerly Prettyman,) bishop

of Lincoln, value of see

dean and canon residentiary of St. Paul's......

It

This right reverend person has been accused of misapply ing the funds of the charity of Mere and Sital, of which he is patron and visitor. The charity of Mere consists of 650 acres, situate within five miles of Lincoln; it was left to maintain six poor men and a warden. The whole estate is let for £32, out of which £24 is distributed to the poor brethren; the only benefit they derive from their estate of 650 acres. would be absurd to imagine that an estate of this extent, which pays neither tythes nor poor-rate, and where land in the neighbourhood lets from 20s. to 40s. an acre, yields no more than £32 a year. The truth seems to be that, a heavy fine is paid at every renewal of the lease; that this fine is pocketed by the warden; that the warden is a nephew, or,

*The reversion of this office is granted to W. H. Scott, son of the lord chancellor after the death of Edward and Thomas Thurlow, July, 1815. Vide Lord Eldon.

according to the Quarterly Reviewers, a son of the right reverend bishop; and that the right reverend bishop made way for this lucrative appointment for his son or his nephew, by promoting Mr. Cumming, the former warden, to a living in his gift. The son of the same prelate is master of Spital Hospital, another ancient endowment for the poor; the income of this charity is £6 or 700 a year, and all that is paid to the poor is £27: 4:0 to four or five pensioners!
