ADMONISHING A BISHOP.
On a late occasion the Bishop of Exeter was present at the opening of an additional room to the mission schoolhouse at Brixham. There was a full choral service in the church. The Bishop was present, but took no part in the service ; he seated himself among the congregation quite at the lower end of the building. Dr Temple admits that he has no knowledge of music; but still, on this occasion, he tried to do his best, so he joined in the singing. Suddenly he felt the elbow of a neighbour thrust unpleasantly hard into his ribs. Looking round to see from what quarter the assault came, he noticed a sailor, who exclaimed—“l say, guv’nor, you’re singing out o’ tune.
