LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20. THE month of November, gloomy as it is, and favourable, as our French neighbours well know, to the development of "spleen" and the perpetration of suicide in this fog-bound island—though the newspapers do their beat to conceal the fact—has yet its red-letter days. The sth and the 9th are festive occasions of spectacle and solemn proces sion. The earlier date is devoted to Go FAWKES; the later to the Loan MAYOR. The boys of Lon don are growing tired, we fear, of commemorating the traitor and conspirator. We regret to have noticed of late years a decline in the enthusiasm which formerly prevailed among them, a poverty in the decorations, and a niggardliness in the general apparatus of the exhibition, which betray the growth of a prosaic and utilitarian spirit among the youth of England. The Papal Aggression a few years ago gave an impulse to this venerable celebration. For a few seasons the guys were bigger and better dressed, their match-boxes and lant horns possessed more dramatic verisimilitude, and their masks more clearly revealed the depraving effects of Romanist superstition than had been the case on many previous celebrations. But this spirit soon died away, and the guys were once more the miserable shadow of their former state. The decay which has fallen upon the celebra tion of the sth of November threatens that of the 9th. We do not wish to inatitutetoo close a parallel between the heroes of these two occasions. The LORD MAYOR in his robes is neither a guy nor a dummy. The distance is immense between his state coach and FAWKES'S kitchen chair. But some revolutionary spirits in the Corporation desire to diminish it ; and, if the first step is con ceded to them, a future generation may see the LORD MAYOR carried from Guildhall to Westminster, to be exhibited and submitted, like any other article of City manufacture, to the approval of her Manurre's Judges, with as little ceremony as is now shown in the transport of his rival of the sth. Happily there is a Conservative and Constitutional party in the Corporation, which was bold enough to resist and strong enough (so far as it was con corned) tooutvote the advocates of this insidious and dangerous project in its inception. The hindrance to traffic, the dead-lock in the streets, the field-day afforded to the thieves and rowdies of London, by the ordinary practice, were appealed to by some utilitarian spirits as reasons for allowing the Loan MAYOR to regulate the manner of his journey from the Guildhall to Westminster according to l his sense of the public convenience. But a majority of 57 to 25 negatived the motion in which these heretic opinions were embodied : and a resolu tion was carried that the Loan MAYOR should be carried to Westminster on the 9th of November in his State Coach. Notwithstanding this vote, the Committee to whom the point was referred has decided against the state coach, and in favour of the private state carriage. The next step, as some timid councillors apprehend, may be a descent to a hired brougham, to a hackney coach, to a Hansom cab. The revolutionists may then proceed to strip the LORD MAYOR himself of his gown, his chain, and his ring, and to reduce him from the symbol and representative of a substantial corporation nearly to the level of that abstract idea of a LORD MAYOR which MARTINI7S SCRIB- LrAus discusses. From this fate the Councillors and Aldermen of London have done their best to save London, England, and the world. The moral lesson of the LORD MAYOR'S Show was impressively dwelt on by one or two Coun cillors. Mr. LAWLEY believed that many a boy had dated his determination to succeed in life from the time when he saw the great civic festi val pass before his eyes; and under its inspiring influence had achieved success. Hooarern has been beforehand with Mr. La WLZY in drawing this lesson from the pageant, and has embodied it in his illustration of the career of the industrious and the indolent apprentices. Virtue triumphs, and is rewarded when FRANCIS GOODCWILD be comes Loan Maros. But the spectacle may tempt the successors of THOMAS IDLE to present dissipation, as it did TROWAN IDLE'S predecessor in the ways of profligacy, Csanera's idle appren tice, PERILYN REVELOVS. Of that dissipated young man, the father of English poetry tells us that-- When there any riding was In Obspe Out of the shoppe thider wold he lepe, And till that he had all the sight yseen, And danced well, he wolde not come agen. But granting the moral lesson of the Lord Mayor's Show, can it be conveyed only in the Lord Mayor's State Coach? Is there no other vehicle for it ? If the lesson depends upon the splendour of the pageant, the Conservatives of the Corporation must not content them selves with resisting innovation. They must restore what has been abandoned. The men in armour must be brought back again, and nut only the men in armour, but the savages or green•men with their clubs and fireworks, the whiffler and hench-boys, the allegorical virtues, and the sym bols of trade. Why not the state barge as well as the state coach ? and why not, in order explicitly to improve the occasion, and finely to point the moral, a City poet, as in former days ? MLRTIN TUPPER might not disdain the wreath of ELICANAH Simms. Domestic morality is not the only consideration which the Aldermen and Councillors of the City of London may have had in view. Though, for diplo matic reasons, they said nothing about it, the maintenance of the honour and reputation of England abroad possibly determined their vote. The reverence entertained for the Loan MAYOR in foreign countries is well known ; he is regarded there with a respect even more awful than is felt towards him at home. The Prefect of the Seine, the Doge of Venice, the Burgomaster of Hamburg, all civic magistrates, past and present, are as no thing to him. If he be docked of any of his splendour, if a spoke be put into a single wheel of the state coach—and, we fear, it has been— what may not the effect be on that very sensitive article, the prestige of England ? One solution of the problem suggests itself, which we do not dare to put otherwise than inter rogatively. Why should the Loan MAYOR go to Westminster at all ? The usage is a memorial, not of the dignity and authority, but of the ser vility and dependence of the Corporation. It is a memorial of the power retained by the Crown, when first the boon of a Mayor was granted to London, to sit in judgment upon the choice of the citizens, and at its pleasure to disallow it—a power exercised more than once in the worst periods of English history. Is this a prerogative worth commemorating ? Without pressing for an answer to this question, we will merely observe, in conclusion, that the debate and resolution of Thursday, futile though they have been, throw I;ght upon a question which was not under discussion. The reform of the Corporation of the City of London has been much talked of. But surely, in the face of the practical good sense, the regard for modern convenience, the contempt for obsolete mummeries and antique finery, and the preference of business to display, which were shown in the great state-coach discussion, all objections will be hushed. The House of Commons may have needed reform ; but the Corporation of the City of London is the perfection of human wisdom, the masterpiece of self-government. OUR CONTEMPORARIES. (THIS DAY.) The Times assumes that if the new Italian govern ment are seriously determined that there shall be peace, Garibaldi will become utterly powerless for evil to any but himself. Had matters proceeded one step far ther there would beyond question have been war with France, and this fact destroys all probabilities of any suc cessful insurrectionary movement. The Emperor's lan guage was firm and explicit beyond all precedent. " I shall not intervene at Civita Vecchia, but my expedition will make for Genoa." The Times seems to incline to the opinion that there will be a renewed invitation of the great powers to a European congress, and urges that if such a meeting takes place neither Italy nor France need scruple to submit the case of Rome to European arbitra tion, and there are difficulties in the East which can hardly be adjusted in any other way. In another article the Times shows the absurdity of supposing that the United States is likely to adopt any pro posal having the slightest tendency towards repudiation. The Daily News observes that the ferment in Italy in creases as it is perceived that Victor Emmanuel can make no movement without previous communication with Paris. The French government is every day reinforcing the fanatical bands of the Papalini, and offices are open throughout France for the enlistment of Frenchmen will ing to kill Italians in the cause of the Pope. In the treatment of their prisoners, the Pope's soldiers follow, it appears, the precedence of Mexican warfare. Meanwhile the Italian government fear to present Garibaldi in the light of a victim to the Emperor of the French. The state of things upon which the week is about to close is tho roughly unsound. As, however, we live under a dispen sation of surprises, perhaps the improvement may come as suddenly as the events which have caused the depression. The Daily News continues to question the wisdom of sending working men to parliament as the special repre sentatives of a special class. The new house will not be complete without them, but they must go as other men go, on the rme footing with their constituencies, and with the same claims on the attention of the house. In the opinion of the Post the failure of the movement in the Papal States is mainly attributable to the fact that it was distinctly a republican movement, The Standard says things must have come to • pretty pass with the reform leaguers, when they hold Baxter Langley to be too timid and Beale' • reactionist. The murderers of Brett, the Manchester policeman, are the type of men with whom the reform leaguers have thrown in their lot. It concerns the honour and the fair fame of the English work;ng man that they should henceforth stand alone in such infamous associations. Why should not Mr. Beale, take the initiative in this matter ? The proposal of a oonferenoe is condemned by the Star, which strongly advises Italy to have nothing to do with it. Let her, on the contrary, wait and grow strong. THE WEEKLY PRESS. The Examiner suggests that the politics of Louis Napoleon may end in the same way as those of Louis Philippe, by an Austre-French alliance. and by the aban donment of every other power. Louis Philippe bad the character of being the wisest prince of his age. Louis Napoleon had precisely the same. Is it to be • fact that rulers on the throne of Frames, however different their ori ginal characters, and however different the views with which they take their seats upon the throne, nevertheless all end by adopting the same policy? Such • notion as this is more vexatious and more to be feared by the Empe ror than the anathemas of any of the parties who now openly attack him in the press. To be declared an Empe ror of no opinion, with • policy of no result, inscrutable through weakness, an Emperor stuck in the mud of his own policy ; this most be disagreeable to an ambitious men who played a high stake for his crown, and cannot like to find himself already widely named for entry on the list of monarchs who have failed in business. The Examiner thinks the peril that for weeks hung over the man Groves ought to serve for a warning to magistrates and jurors against tbo danger of reckless swearing or of deliberate perjury, where it is known and felt that a strong current of prejudice has set in that may involve in one common fate the innocent and the guilty. The Examiner trusts that at the Manchester special com mission, every man who can be convicted on unbought evidence of complicity in the murder of Sergeant Brett may be brought to punishment ; but is any case, espe cially one of life and death, and above all, in one where the passions of race and creed are involved, it protests against weighting the scales with gold. Tile Sareinlap Beriew thinks Napoleon the Third can now afford, if he chooses, to be geoarous. He has had his little triumph. If lie has never been able to frighten Count Bismarck, he has almost terrified Victor Emmanuel. This is a success so great, so unexpected, and, under present eiretnstsnese, so useful to the Second Empire, that Napo leon 111. ought to take advantage of it to settle the Romax question for the future. If, after all, be prefers to con tinue the present situation, with all its dangers and possi bilities, bigamy will have to record the fact that the Emperor's use of his position at the close of his career was worthy of the arts by which he won it. He will, as far as in him lies, be condemning France to fresh complications, Europe to fresh anxiety, Italy to fresh disorder, and Rome to a fresh experience of ecclesiastical misrule. To other men we should say that conduct of this sort was a crime; to the French Emperor one can only say that it would be a mistake. The appointment of Mr. Thornton to the post of Minister at Washington is highly approved of by the Saturday Recier. In hint the American people, our con. temporary says, will learn to respect a gentleman who has won promotion and inspired confidence by the same arts— namely, by industry, fidelity, courtesy, and good sense. Those who know European society will discover that the want of an hereditary title argues the ►bsence neither of dignity nor of refinement ; and Englishmen who hate • job will rejoice that no hypothetical state necessity has been allowed to postpone the claims of a tried and meri torious public servant to those of a more powerful but less experienced competitor. The Epedator trusts that the advice of the jury in the case of Mrs. Janman will be followed. It does not under stand why perjury, aimed at the life of • fellow-creature, as this, if perjury, was, should not be punished as severely as the worst form of murder. It is intent to murder, aggravated by the worst and meanest form of theft. The Spectator prints a letter from the Bishop of Argyll and the Ides, explaining why he objected to sign, and why ultimately he consented to sign the Lambeth encyclical, though it contained language which he thought likely to Bugged what he believes to be a false view of tho atone ment. The bishop assented finally because the words in question were torn from a context in the second article, which shows that they were not intended to have the construc.ion he deprecates put upon them, and because he regarded the quotation as • meta reference to the article from which it was taken, not as a doctrinal exposition, and supposed the encyclical itself to be a mere salutation addressed to the church by its heads, containing various references to her formularies, not as intended to teach either her own members or those ' external to her communion. The Spectator observes : I The letter is explicit enough as to the Bishop of Argyll's own faith, and as to the substitutive scheme of atonement which he rejects. No one after this letter can accuse him of insincere compPanoe. But what • theolegical farce is this boasted unanimity of subscription to the encyclical, when the document subscribed chooses its words so art fully as to convey an assertion of the substitutive view of the atonement to the Bishop of Capetown, who, in his judgment on Dr. Coleus°, explicitly affirmed this as his reading of the article, and to seem consistent with an earnest denial of it by the Bishop of Argyll and the Isles? The Chnraide, in the course of an article upon the col lision of free-trade and unionism observes that of all the advantages which may attend the recent investigations in tUtuted by government into the working and constitution of trades unions, there is none to be compared . ] with the p Ability which it affords of familiarising the employing classes with the views, the ideals, and the aspirations of those whom they employ, of making either party more tolerant of the theories of the other, and of teaching them that a true political science must find room for both.

THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 26, 1867. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THZ ROMAN QUESTION. The gravity of the announcement contained in the Paris Muniteur of this morning cannot be over estimated. It appears from the statement of the French official journal that the presence of Garibaldi on the scene of action has kindled anew the flame of Italian patriotism, and that he was by the last accounts marching on Rome at the bead of 4,000 volunteers. In all probability the citizens of Rome, with a knowledge that the popular hero is at hand, will rise in insur rection and with more effect than in the partial rising made by the Deputy Cairoli, who lost his life in the attempt. It is no doubt in consequence of this new state of things that the Emperor Napo leon has come to the serious resolution of order ing the French troops to embark at Toulon. The iron-clad squadron has in fact left already. In this critical position of matters the resolution of the Italian ministry will be looked for with intense interest. The situation of King Victor Emmanuel is one of the greatest difficulty. He must apparently choose between revolution at home or resistance to France. The consequences of either are the most serious that can well be imagined, and it is possible that they may extend even beyond the two countries immediately concerned. Of the excited state of public feeling in Italy there can be no doubt. As we have made our readers aware, that excitement has been augmenting day by day, and there are indications that the popular en thusiasm has penetrated some portion of the regular army. According to the last accounts the agitation in Florence was very great. On Tuesday morning the walls of Florence were covered with the follow ing placard :—" Italians ! Fighting has been going on in Rome since yesterday evening. To-day, at 11, there w ;Übe ameeting on the Piazza della Signora." Notwithstanding the rain, a great number of persons met, and two battalions of the 32nd Line were in the street, who were loudly cheered. After send ing an address to the President of the Council, the multitude assembled before the house in which Garibaldi was staying, and in a few seconds the general appeared on the balcony. Everybody at once uncovered, and the place re sounded with acclamations. Garibaldi begged the people to cover themselves. The peopla in turn cried, " General, cover yourself," which he did, and then proceeded to address them in impassioned words. Among other things he said, " The people, with the fraternal concurrence of the army, will enter very soon into possession of the Roman ter • ritory, which has been soiled but too long by foreigners. As to myself, I pledge you I will do my duty to the death." At 2 o'clock on the same afternoon Garibaldi left for Foligno and Terni by special train. It is said that when Rattazzi, as Minister of the Interior, was asked to put a locomotive at Garibaldi's disposal, he replied, " Instead of one give him two." Gari baldi had with him Basso, his son-in-law, and a dozen men as body guard. He left behind him the following proclamation : Italians l Our brothers at Rome have put up the barri cades, and since yesterday evening have been fighting with the creatures of papal tyranny. Italy looks to each of us to do his duty. GA RI BALD!. Oct 22, 1867. The central committee announced the intelligence in the following terms : Italians ! Rome has risen. Our brothers fight to re store to Italy the capital which a reactionary conspiracy disputes with her. Shall we abandon them? No : in spite of the menacing bravadoes of foreign governments which insult our brave army by imposing on the countij a cowardly retractation of its rightr. Hesitate no more. The hour looked for for centuries has come. To Rome, to Rome! —let this be our cry, our aim. The central oommittee, G. PALLAVTCThO, F. CRIBPI, E. CAIBOLT, L. LATORTA, A. OLIVA, F. Ds BONI, L 1111cr.u. Florence, Oct. 22, 1867. Addresses are being prepared at all points of the peninsula calling upon the King to uphold the national honour. From Turin, in particular, which may be called the cradle of the dynasty, there is a strong and general demand that the government should push on to Rome, and the journals are openly discussing the necessity of a federal republic if Rome is not made the capital of the kingdom. A subscription on behalf of the wounded patriots was opened in Turin, and the first name on the list is that of the Countess Mira fiori, who has subscribed 601. A letter from Rome of Oct. 19, in the Saha Public of Lyons, says : In Rome everything seems ready for an insurrection. We are told every evening that it may be expected the next day. The form of a projected plebiscite is in circula. tion, and it contains a clause expressly stipulating that the pontifical authority is to be respected. Rome et this moment presents the aspect of a besieged city. Ito streets are silent and deserted. The native: troops are confined to barracks. They are in fact prisoners, for they are presumed to be to a man favourable to the insurrection. The young men not yet arrested sleep away from home and change their lodgings every night. Not a single corps of Roman volun teers has been formed for the defence of the Holy See. Not one Roman has enlisted in the Papal Roman army. There are few families who have not relations either prison or:in voluntary exile. Letters from Toulon describe the city and all the villages round as being full of soldiers, and all the roads as being incumbered with artillery waggons and horses. The commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army had issued two orders of the day of a very bellicose character. We find the following in the Temps of yesterday : Very serious rumours were •float on the Bourse to-day, which we are not in • position either to confirm or to deny. Amongst other thicgs it was reported that Garibaldi was before Rome, and as a natural consequence that fresh orders were issued to the fleet. All we can say is that the report relative to Garibaldi is not improbable after the facts which marked his stay in Florence and his departure from that city. THE ADDRESS OF THE ROMANS TO THE POPE.-ITALIAN INTERVENTION ASKED FOR. One of the official journals of Rome has denied the fact of an address having been presented to the Pope asking for the intervention of Italian troops. We find, however, from other sources that the in cident really took place. The address, which was signed by 12,000 Romans, was as follows : Excellency,—The situation of the country has become so grave that it has no guarantee for anyone. Prison, con stant perquisitions, the threat of a state of siege, the show of military forces, instead of allaying have but in creased the irritation of our people, already excited by so many evils. The numerous insurrectionary proclama tions lately published, especially that of the 16th—e copy of which we send you—mast show everyone that re volution I. imminent. The undersigned citizens, whose signatures over various @beets exceeded 12,000, in the strong desire to preserve Rome from great calami ties, address your excellency with confidence, begging you to kterpret to his holiness our lord the sentiments of the population, and to implore the only remedy which can be efficacious, the intervention of the regular troops of the Italian kingdom. Excellency, the citizens of Rome, of whom you are the lawful representative to the Sovereign Pontiff, are convinced that you will interpose efficaciously in the common interest of the country which has never failed and never will fail in respect to the common father of the faithful, but whose authority would be enfeebled by SUDDEN POSTPONEMENT OF THE INTENDED ROYAL VISIT. A telegram was received at the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, at 11 o'clock this morning (S►turday) from Antwerp by Captain Gordon, C. 8., announcing that the expected visit of the Crown Prince Frederick William of Prossia and her Royal Highness the Princess Victoria (Princess Royal of England) had been postponed ; end the royal paddle-wheel steam-yacht Osborne, Commander D'Arcy, left Antwerp last night to return so Portsmouth without their royal highnesses. Instructions had been received previously at the Royal Arsenal from the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, ordering suitable preparations to be made for the disem barkation and reception of the Crown Prince and Princess, and accordingly the pier was carpeted and decorated in the manner usual on such occasions. Viscount Sydney, Lord Lieutenant of the county of Kent, drove over to Woolwich to-day from his lordship's country seat, for the porpoise of receiving the royal pair, whilst Major-General Wards, commandant of the garrison, Commodore Edmonstoue, senior officer of the port and aide-de camp to her Majesty ; Captain Gordon, C. 8., and other distinguished officers, were in readiness to be in attendance at the disembarkation. The police were also in reserve at the different sub-divisions to line the entire route from Woolwich to Buckingham Pollee, but on re ceipt of this morning's telegram were dismissed to their usual duties, whilst the officials in readiness to receive their royal highnesses left the pier, which has since been dismantled of its decor►tions. The Independamee Befge states that the above visit has been put off in oonsequence of the [sudden indisposition of the Crown Princess. The Prince of Wales, accompanied by Count Gleichen, honoured the Strand Theatre with his presence last evening. Their Royal Highnesqes Prince and Princess Christian of Schleswig-Holstein are expected to arrive at Windsor this morning from the royal family circle at Bal moral. The Marchioness (Dowager) of Waterford will leave Charlss•etreet, Bt. James's, on Monday next for Cur raghmore, county Waterford. Lord Lyons left Norfolk House on Thursday for the French Embassy at Paris, to enter upon his diplomatic duties as British Ambassador at the Court of the Tuileries. Mr. A. Beraafora-Hope, M.P., and Lady Mil dred Hope arrived in town yesterday from visiting the Right Hon. William G. and Lady Hayter at Bouthill Park, their seat near Bracknell, Berks. Sir G. Bowen will succeed Sir Georg,e Grey as Governor of New Zealand. Prince de la Tour d'Auvergne, Ambassador of France at the Court of St. James's, is detained at Path by illness. The mortal remains of Admiral the Right Hon. Charles Lord Colchester were buried yesterday in Kenssl green cemetery. The mourners were the Hon. Reginald C. Abbot, the late lord's only son and successor, the Earl of Ellenborough, the Hon. Henry Law, the Earl of Shef field, Sir Robert Dallas, Colonel Law, the Rev. C. Abbot, and Admiral Eden. Yesterday being the anniversary of the battle of Balaclava, a number of officers who had taken part in that engagement dined together at Willis's-rooms, King-street, St. James's, when Major-General C. Hedge, C. 8., filled the chair. Among the of assembled to commemorate the anniversary were Lieutenant-General the Earl of Car digan, Lieutenant-General Hon. Sir J.

The Marquis of Cavalletti being absent, M. Giraud, who was acting in his stead, at once acted upon this address, and wrote to the Pope as fol lows : Holy Father,—An address said to have been signed by 12,000 persona has been received by the Roman magis tracy. It refers to the very grave situation of Rome, and calls for certain regulations or mesaures. The magistr►cy, in the senator's absence, deem it their duty to lay this address at your Holiness's feet, expressing their readiness to reoperate in the carrying out of your sovereign deci sions.

The Moniteur of this morning publishes con spicuously the following announcement :—" In ♦iew of the fresh attempts on the part of the re volutionary bands to invade the Papal States, the Emperor has revoked the order which had been given for suspending the embarkation of the troops assembled at Toulon." The Moniteur in its bulletin publishes the fol lowing advices from Rome :—" All the efforts of the Garibaldians to organise a revolutionary move ment in Rome have totally failed.

A letter from Chicago, Illinois, of the ith, men tions that Lord Amberley was there and had that day been visiting the public schools of that city. The Vienna paper the New Free Press, asserts that the interview which took place at Oos between the Emperor Francis Joseph and King Frederick WilliAm wet brought about by the efforts of English diplomacy.

A council meeting of the central chamber will be held at the Salisbury Hotel, Fleet street, on T.resday, November 5, to consider the injury to the home cattle trade, caused by the operation of the Order in Council of August 20, and the impolicy of ad mitting foreign animals into the same market with home bred animals, and proposed legislation thereupon ; also to consider what steps shall be taken by the chamber with regard to the malt-tax. The Gardeners Chronicle mentions as an instance of the influence which horticulture, as carried out in England, exercises on foreign potentates who witness it, that the Viceroy of Egypt when recently here, was so struck with the plants and flowers which be saw culti vated, that he has commissioned Mr. Bull to send him out a thoroughly proficient flower gardener —one capable of carrying out floriculture in a similar manner to the style adopted in this count'''. As is generally known, the Viceroy already has an English gardener, but the one now referred to goes exclusively for the cultivation of flowers ; a new and entirely separate appointment. - - Another example of the insecurity of the gaols in Ireland was afforded a few days sinee in the Tippenuy Bridewell. A prisoner who was being brought bef ore a magistrate volunteered to the constable in charge of him a statement to the effect that a deserter who had been com mitted to the gaol was armed with a loaded revolver, and prepared to make his escape. Inqu:if was instituted, and the fact found to be so. The head weeder has been sent to the county prison in Clonmel, and the governor sus pended, in consequence of the discovery. A painful incident occurred on the Boulevard Poissonniere, near the Boulevard Strasburg, Paris, a few moments before the Emperor of Austria passed. A young man, assistant in a mercer's shop, while in the act of fixing a flag at one of the windows of the first floor of the house, leant for support on an iron bar of the balcony, to which he was fastening the flagstaff. The bars suddenly gave way, and he fell on the boulevard. He was taken from the ground into the shop, accompanied by a surgeon and a priest, who both happened to be in the group of spectators. The skull was found to be fractured, and the young man died in the course of the afternoon. The Record is not sorry to learn that some of the Bishop of Oxford's most influential clergy have de clined to obey his lordship's mandate ordering them to read the Pan-Anglican Encyclical in their churches. It remains to be seen whether his lordship will feel disposed to enforce the order, or will allow it to drop as a brulust fawn. A MAL DOG IN THE PUBLIC STREET. THREE PERSONS BITTEN.—‘THIS DAY.) This morning at about 10 o'clock a mad dog an. i n Palace-road, Lambeth, and created • feel. ing of terror amongst the inhabitants, He wa s large, long, black dog of the retriever breed. As he madly dashed along the road his eyes glared, and foam came from Ma mouth ; round his neck there was a piece of rope, the end of which kept Sy ;rig in the air as the dog was running. W tien heap. proacbed No. 2, Palace-read he evidently perceived that the door had been left open, for be suddenly turn e d i n hi s course and ran into the house at full speed. As be was hunting up the stairs to the top rooms he met a woman named Elizabeth Hawks, aged 49 ye..ra. She was auiying • pail of water at the tinis and the dog knocked against it. He then caught bold of the woman by the left leg and took a bit out of it. The woman shrieked with pain and fell back upon the dog, and the pail of water was upset over him. 11'hile the woman, who we are informed rolkd down the stairs, was lying os the dog he bit her on the left aim. He tore the arterial out, and blood rushed from the wound. Th e dog then left the house and the woman was found by some neighbours who had run into the house, I She was earned to the Westminster Hospital. While being brought along the road her leg swelled up in a fright. ful manner, and upon her admission into the hospital, Mr. Winckwoith, the home -salmon, instantly applied caustic to her wounds. At 12 o'clock today she was lying in the hospital ward in a very dangerous state. A woman who came with her stated that on a previous occasion she had met the same dog, and he had bitten her. When the mad dog left Mrs. Hawks' house he ran along the road and never stopped until he reached Crosier. street, Stangate. He was followed by • large and excited crowd who shouted " Had dog, mad dog," se they hurried along. One policeman joined in the chase of the animal, who only stopped running quick once, and that when he wanted to bite • little boy that be knocked down. He succeeded in doing this before the crowd could get up to him, and the unfortunate lad was found lying on the pavement. Some of the people stopped, and carried the wounded youth into Dr. Meakin's surgery, and that gentle man attended to him. The excitement now became greater than ever, and when the dog reached Crosier-street he ran up the ; steps of one the houses. The hall door was not y open, r and he had to remain outside. A boy named Knolson, the eon of a carpenter, living at 3, Garden-row, Stangate-street, was passing by at the time, and he unfortunately recognised the dog before the crowd came up. He went to the animal, and while trying to catch hold of the reps round his neck win knocked down. The dog then bit him terribly on the left side of the throat and face. The wound on the neck has a frightful appearance. The Seth is jagged. He also bit him in the arm and leg. The crowd then came up, and • man very courageously rushed forward and caught hold of the rope. The policeman then managed to muzzle the animal, which was then taken to Tower-street police station. He has not been killed. The boy was taken to Westminster Hospital, and the house surgeon attended to him. No owner can be found for the dog. It is said that the animal was • stolen one. The thieves kept him tied up in a bisek room, from which he succeeded in breaking loose yesterday. FALSE WEIOBTS AND MEASURES.-{rius DAY.)

THE FENIAN OCTRAGES AT MANCHESTER.—Mr. Robots has addressed the following letter to the Home Secrete:3 , :—" Reg. a Allen and :el others. Sir,-1 have to acknowledge the receipt of your letter this morning re fusing to postpone these trials. My attention Las been just directed to a leader in the Timisof to -day in reference to the approaching trials, and especially to its concluding paragraph. No counsel are yet engaged. The means at my disposal are so small that they do not enable nie to pay the fees which, inaooordancewiththernlesandestablishedusage of the boar, are necessity for retaining the services of coun sel usually employed in London. For reasons it is not neoessair to enter into, it is most desirable that, in addi tion to the barristers who live in Manchester. the prisoners should have the t anefit of the experience and learning el gentlemen whose practice has been principally in London. The prisoners are very anxious to have the assistance fax their defence of Mr. Set jeans Dallantiue, Mr. Digby Sep moue, Mr. Setjeant O'Brien, Mr. Ernest Jones, and Mr. Cettingluun, together with the aid of some three or fore gentlemen of our local bar. Permit me humbly to ask the government to bear the expense of the defence; or, if that cannot he done, then I ask that the tees of the gentlemen named may be paid by the government. The time is but short, but I will give myself unreservedly to the work of properly instructing the gentlemen I have named. Perhaps, under the circum stances, you would also grant a week's delay, or a few days, more or lees, 1, in the meantime, 'treeing counsel in town in oonsultation. I have struggled a,priust nip diffi culties as attorney for the prisoners, and to avoid the pre sent necessity, but feel that I should not be doing right if I neglected the present mode of protecting the ptimoncre —the only one I can think of. Under circumstances of much difficulty I am very desirous of doing the best lota for them.-1 hsve the honour to be, sir, your most obr (bent servant, W. P. ROBERT." Mr. Prevost, a famous silkworm breeder in California, writing to the American Board of Agriculture, says :—" Just a month sgo I was in Sacramento, and think how pleased I was to find that over 3,09,00 of mulberry trees were growing there finely in different places. And I found, also, that Mrs. Haynie had a fine crop of sermons—the finest I have ever seen yet. The question is now settled that the melba y tree and the worms succeed finely all over our State ; but by what I see Sacramento will be the first silk district of California. I think that for the next season they will have there food enough for 10,000,000 of silkworms. It is well known that musical Cittnpeisers take great liberties with the poetry which they net to murie. Lewes, the musical composer, the friend of Milton, and who wrote the original mule for the songs in the masque of Comes; made serious alteration- iu the words one particularly in the last line of the beautiful echo song. Milton wrote, " And give resounding grace to all Heaven's harmonies." Lewes altered this to " Aud hold a counter point to all Heaven's harmonies." A paragraph has just appeared in the papers stating that the late Lord Cokhr , ter commanded the Alceate at the time of Ler memorable wreck in the Chinese seas. This is an error: Captain Murray Maxwell Wu the commander, The wreck took place in 1817, when Lord Colchester was only 19 years old.

Mdla are partially stopped at Ebbw Vale. Where the works are going on well many have not too much for themselves and families. MAW. B.W. Lw W. 8.111. B.AX 1 N. B.ILX SAW. 11.8. W. Tat. &IL &W. B.W.
