LONDON, March 9th.. Deep feeling is stirring here in political and religious circles over rumors which have got aflont concerning, the protracted delay in filling two vacant bishoprics, one of which has been empty for nearly two months. No such delay ever occurred before, and it is said to be due to a conflict between the Queen and Lord Salisbury over the name of Canon Liddon. Hais by all odds the foremost churchman in England, and the failure year after year to promote him has become a grave scandal.
It arises from the time when Liddon way preaching in the royal chapel at Windsor, and turned, in the middle of an eloquent sermon, to the royal pew, and addressed, a personal

After the service she demanded the presence of Dean Wellesley, and, with a flaming face, screamed at bim: "Never let that man presch here again."
Hence Liddon has never been made a bishop, bat sentiment has grown so strong on the sub- Ject that Lord Salisbury is now afraid of its political effects, and so a deadlock exists. If the Queen contin' es obstinate on the point it will vastly increase the chances of disestablish- ment coming while she is still on the throne.
