ADDITIONAL COLONIAL BISHOPRICS.

1 THE Archbishops and Bishops forming the committee appointed to arrange measures in concert with her Majesty's government, for the erection and endowment of additional bishoprics in the colonies and dependencies of Great Britain, deem their appointment, to report the progress which, by it right, at the expiration of a year from the time of God's blessing, they have been enabled to make towards the attainment of the great object proposed. In the autumn of last year, her Majesty was pleased to issue her royal letters, erecting New 9 Zealand into a bishopric, and the Rev. George 10 Augustus Selwyn, having been consecrated first ib. Bishop of that see, embarked on the 26th December 11 in the same year for his diocese, accompanied by five clergymen and three catechists, being candidates for holy orders. One-half of the requisite endowment of this see, namely, 600l. a-year, will be provided by a special contribution to the fund from the Church Missionary Society, until they shall be enabled to redeem this annual payment by a grant of land producing an equal revenue.

The ECCLESIASTICAL GAZETTE is published on the SECOND TUESDAY IN EVERY MONTH, and may be obtained at sixpence per number, or six shillings per annum, by ordering it of any Newsman in the Kingdom.

It is also sent regularly every month, free of all charge, to the Resident Parochial Clergyman of every Parish throughout England and Wales.

One Guinea paid in advance will be received as a Subscription for four years.

Advertisements will be received at the Office, in Southampton-street, until the Saturday previous to the day of Publication.

declare her intention of founding an episcopal see
at Gibraltar, and of nominating the Rev. George

Mr. Burder will be happy to afford any information and assistance, on application being made to him on the subject.

The progress already made must be regarded as a cause of thankfulness, and an encouragement to further efforts. Within twelve months from the date of the declaration agreed upon at Lambeth, three new bishoprics have been founded; and the committee of Archbishops and Bishops are now devising measures for the erection of episcopal sees in the colonies of New Brunswick and South Australia. When these arrangements shall be completed, they will proceed to direct their attention to the important dependencies of the Cape of Good Hope and Ceylon.
