It is a somewhat remarkable fact that the Rev. J. James Jones, M.A., our present Curate, and the Rev. Benjamin Thomas, B.D., our late Curate, who is at present in charge of St. David's Welsh Church, Paddington, should both be offered promotions within the same week. Mr. James Jones was offered the charge of St. Deiniol's Welsh Church, Liverpool, and Mr. Thomas the Vicarage of JJanerchymedd. We know not at present whether the offers have been accepted, but we embrace this opportunity of congratulating them both upon being singled out for this offer of promotion, whether it be accepted or not. We should be glad to see Mr. Thomas returning to the diocese, where he first obtained a title, and where he has since laboured with so much success; and we should, indeed, be sorry to lose the services of Mr. James Jones, who by his quiet and unostentatious manner as well as by the excellence of his preaching, has endeared himself to us all. We cannot, however, hope always to retain his services, but we trust that when he decides to leave, he will have a sphere of labour worthy of his undoubted ability as a bilingual preacher. It seems as if it'is quite impossible
