__ An exchange says :—lt is a dreadful thing—almost sacrilegious, is it not?—to talk gossip about a bishop ; but people tcill say that Dr. Temple is going to marry Lady Hotham. We are told that a bishop should be the husband of one wife, which is generally interpreted to mean, not that it was objectionable for bishops to practice polygamy, but that they were not to marry more than once. It is lucky the text does not apply to bishops' wives, as Lady Hotham has already buried three husbands.
