A “Cave. Isptscertios’’? mm Caxapa — The Toronto Weekly Message says that the Rev. R. Creen, rector of St. Mark’s, in Niag- ara, C. W , was some weeks since suspended for life, for adultery with one of his parishion- ers. The sentence of his Bishop, Strachan, of Toronto, waa that he should be so suspended, but ehould keep bis of rector till January following, and then retire from the Episcopacy on a life pension of $490 8 year’ Among the testimony against him was the following note inclosed in a copy of Milton’s prose works : “My Dear Mas. Low: I subscribe with a conscience to the doctriue of the great flton, set forth in his Prose Works, from p2ge 224 to 252. and reqaest a careful perusal of those pages, because I wish to contract a anion on these principles, as my wife is good for nothing for that purpose, and [ have al- admired and regarded you with uncom- mon affection and partiality “If you oan return the feelings which I en- tertain, please to signify the same by subsorib ing the iuitial of your name under mine, and Teturn the book to me to morrow with this in- closed. i “ Niagara, May 5, 1355.""
