Tin cordial and even enthusiastic welcome which Mr. GLADSTONE is receiving in the menu factaring districts will not surprise any who have carefully watched his recent career. During a period of almost unexampled political langour he has devoted his great abilities with untiring zeal to the study of difficult and complicated questions, to the mastery of obscure and uninviting details con nected with the interests of labour and capital ; and as the result of his patient and laborious in quiries he hsa framed and carried through the legislature, in spite of the most strenuous and persistent opposition, important measures of commercial, financial, and industrial reform which have gone far to redeem the present Parliament from the standing reproach of barrenness and inaction. In his speech at Bolton Mr. Gianirrosz ingeniously apologised for this comparative inaction, and certainly no public man could do so with a better grace, for the use ful legislation he has himself inaugurated consti tutes the chief exception, and affords in reality the best reply to the charge which he attempts on other grounds to rebut. Whatever truth there may be in the charge as applied to the temper and conduct of Parliament in general, or to the policy of Government in particular, the Caa.ncenos of the EXCHEQUER is certainly not exposed to it. He has never been wholly satisfied with things as they are, nor resigned himself with folded hands to the easy bat ignoble part of allowing the vessel of the State to drift idly on the languid wave of tempo zary apathy or acquieseence. While other public men, whose professions of attachment to the prin ciples of progress had been loader than his own, were well content to make the practical politi cal stagnation of the hour a pretext for the adop tion of a stationary if not a retrograde policy, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER has never ceased to recognise the active promotion of the national interests by progressive legislation as the first duty of a responsible statesman. Instead of being content to wait until the commercial and financial reforms which he felt to be just and salutary were forced on the attention of the Government by the overwhelming pressure of opi nion from without, he bas with statea manlike foresight and sagacity taken the initiative in bringing about the needed improve ments. In this Le faithfully reflects that new, higher, and more enlarged conception of public duty which has during the last quarter of a cen tury effected a complete social revolution in this country. The change which has produced this beneficent result consists in looking at the national interests as a whole, and providing for them in time, irrespective of the party exigencies of the hour. Some of the older political leaders, whoeeeerly public life was spent in fierce party conflicts, can hardly, perhaps, be expected to enter fully into this view, being accustomed to estimate the value and urgency of admitted measures of improve ment by their probable influence on the balance of political parties rather than on the welfare of the nation at large. Mr. GLADSTONI belongs essen tially to a different school, of which, perhaps, Sir ROBERT PEEL may he considered the founder ; and although the labours and triumphs of this school have hitherto been confined very much to economical questions, the beneficent results they have achieved are as vast as they are unques tionable. In addressing the manufacturers and artisans at Bolton Mr. GLADSTONE appropriately refers to some of these results :—" We have seen, gentle " men, during a lifetime, an alteration brought " about in the relations of classes in this country " such as must make the heart of every man leap " within his breast to think upon ; we have seen " mistrust and alienation gradually fading away " like mists before the rising sun ; and we have " seen throughout all parts of the country, and " throughout all classes of the community, aenti " manta of mutual confidence, respect, and esteem " taking the place of that alienation and estrange " meat." And he, at the same time, signalises the exceptional nature of the political action which has produced these results :—" It is not " often that it is given to those called on " to bear a part in public affairs to be enabled " by their puny exertions, under the direction of " an all-wise Providence, to do an amount of good " which is upon the whole both so extensive and " unmixed as the good which has been done in " England, within our recollection, by the libera " tion of industry, of capital, and of skill. " In general, when we see parties violently at " issue, and principles keenly contested, the con " ditions of human life do not permit us to hope " anything better than that in the solution of these " controversies at least a balance of good may be " secured; but here we have witnessed changes "carried into effect which have conferred good "*blue upon those by whom they were promoted and upon those by whom they were opposed." Mr. GLADVIVITZ has faithfully carried out the great principles of emancipation of sapital and industry, which are identified with this new and happier period of our national history. His financial measures have directly helped the labour. ing capital of the country to pus through one of the greatasteconomical calamities that ever befel us ; and it is not surprising, therefore, that he should be welcomed with enthusiasm in the manu facturing districts, and looked upon in the light of a public benefactor. If his measures have encountered constant opposition in the House of Commons, .this will be amply compen sated for by the universal sympathy and support they have met with out of doors. And this hearty popular recognition of his service, may well stimulate and encourage him to persevere in the path of useful progress which he has nobly chosen to pursue, under adverse circumstances and in the face of powerful obstacles. He humour oualy referred to the sentiment of impatience those obstacles create in stiting that, in the present satis fied state of Parliament, efforts at improve ment are canvassed with a greater jealousy than at other times, so that a man who proposes an ameliorating law, becomes by that very fact it self an object of suspicion. But this suspicion, even when expressed in the form of resolute oppo sition, has not deterred Mr. GLADSTONE from acting up to his sense of public duty in time past ; and his measures having been crowned with complete success, it is hardly likely to have much weight with him in the future. Mr. GLADSTONE, perhaps wisely, does not make large promises with regard to the future, but it will be satisfactory to the public to be so- lured afresh that, in his judgment, the mere fact of great abuses having been corrected is " no reason " at all why other improvements should not be pro " *routed with similar zeal." He points out more over, the direction which these needed reforms must take : " There are adjustments which our insti " tutions will require. The progress of education, " the progress of good and sound habits in the " community, the increasing confidence which " unites classes together—all these things point to " a gradual enlargementof theprivilegespossessed "by the people." Mr. GLADSTONE has already strongly expressed his conviction on this head, and there can be no doubt of his wisdom and foresight in keeping a question which so directly concerns the character of the people and the stability of our institutions prominently in view. Numberless signs point to a speedy revival of political activity amongst us, and the true test of Mr. GLarocrorres hidden power, and of the stability of his position as a leader, will be found in the prudent and timely application of the principles on which he has hitherto acted to political as well as financial reform. PROROGATION OP PARLIANINT.—(Tffts DAT.) This morning the Lord Chancellor attended in the House of Lords for the purpose of further proroguing the parFunent. His lordship and the other Lords Commissiooers, having taken their seats at the foot of the throne, Colonel Clifford, the Deputy-Yeoman of the Black Rod, was directed to sum mon the Commons to hear the commission read. Shortly afterwards one of the clerks, attended by the door-keeper, and some of the other officials of the house, appeared at the bar, when the commission wig read by Sir J. Shaw Lifters, the principal parliamentary clerk. The Lord Chanoellor then, by virtue of the commission so read, declared it to be her hfsjesty's royal will and plowers that the parliament should be again prorogued until the day therein named, and it stood sdjourned ac cordingly until Friday, the 11th of November. His lord ship did not add the words that the parliament should be " then and there holden for the despatch of divers and urgent affairs* so that on the 11th of November a further prorogation will take place, unless affain of importance erne meanwhile to render the speedy meeting of parliament neces sary. At the ceremony this morning there was not a single member of the House of Commons present, not even the Speaker, who is enjoying his otium ruin dirmitate at Osaing ton. The people's house was represented by a single par liam. ntary elem. gbe court. BALMORAL. Oct. 11.

WIDICIIIIAT Emma. The marriage of the Le;d7 Helen WDonnell, daughter of the late Earl and Laura Countess of Antrim, with Sir Malcolm Murray M'Gregor, Bart., is to take place on Tuesday, the 25th inst. M. Paulin Limayrac has a commission to prove in the Constitutiosenel, with referenoe to various re ports from Vienna, that Austria " ought " neither to be dissatisfied with nor uneasy at the Franco- Italian Convention. To show the right of France to evacuate Rome, he somewhat ironically refers to the fact that, in 1869, Austria, to suit her conveni ence (i.e., to concentrate her forces against the French army, which gave her &thrashing) abandoned, with out any notice at all, that part of the Papal domi nions which were under her guardianship. By way of protest against the suspicion that France now entertains any hostile designs against Austria, the article says in conclusion :--" The public mind in Venetia may become agitated—committees may issue proclamations, may talk of offensive and defensive alliances, and of war in the spring. But that state of things is not new—it has already frequently mowed, and the convention of September must in no manner bear the responsibility of it. All reflecting people must understand that France has no desire to complicate the Roman question by adding that of Venetia, and of lighting up a con flagration in the north of Italy while she is endeavouring to extinguish that in the south." The Pays luus a note stating that although there is an ultra party at Vienna which has endeavoured to goad Austria to war against the convention, yet that Couut de Rechberg, sustained by the Emperor Francis Joseph, has overruled this party, and that Austria, by way of a practical commentary upon her opinion of the convention, is diminishing the effective of her troops in Italy. The Pays there fore thinks that the " akrmista" have now not a leg to stand upon. Austria disarms ; Spain, which was to have put herself forward to replace France in Rome, never thought of any such thing ; and "the sovereign pontiff who was to have appealed to catholic Europe against the con vention now looks upon it with calm, and only thinks of utilising for the benefit of the church those advantages which France holds out to him." I think the latter opinion—that concerning the dis position of the Pope—eminently "subject to caution." Although the financial news from London is said to be better, and Consols come with a rise of a heavy fall has occurred at the Bourse. Bente fell 20c. for cash and 30c. for account, closing at 65fr. 10c. and 65fr. 15c. Mobilier fell 32fr. 50c. The bullion in the Bank of France is believed to be reduced to 219 millions, and a rise in the rate of discount is apprehended for to-morrow. There can be no doubt, however, that uneasiness at the state of European politics weighs upon the market. Rumours of a general disarmament are put in cir culation, but people will ■ot believe them, THE WAR IN NEW ZEALAND.

The Boulogne Times has the following story of an elopement:—" It is very long since the Amur, of Boulogne hays been gratified by the scandal of an elope ment, and we regret that last week furnished forth a neat, which may provide some besinese for Sir J. P. Wilde. A gallant son of ?dare, Captain X—, whose better half is in Etiglant, seems to have won the affection of • young English demoiselle residing in the Rue Royals, who had, however, another string to her bow, whose attentions were very assiduous and somewhat inconvenient to the captain and his fair Inamorata. On Thursd►y last the loving couple bad, it is supposed, determined to enjoy • tour either to Paris or the interior, and the last train in the evening wan to bear them from hence. ♦ difficulty presented itself ; the single and single-minded suitor intervened with a propo sition to meet:the lady fair, and spend an agreeable evening with her. She was nospluseed, sod sought the captain's aid, who went to work with stratagem. He invited the loving bachelor to go with him to the theatre, and witness Pause, sneoseefully urging him to go. He was deservedly punished for preferring the captain's society to that of the lady fair. In the course of a quarter of an boar the expense left his stall, promising to retina in five minutes. Tine passed, and he returned no more. He had flown."

The Gazette of Genoa mentions the arrival in that port of the Explorators steamer, from Marseilles, having on board Prince Humbert.

SZPRESINPATION OP PIRSACIBT. On Tuesday evening a public meeting of electors favourable to tho return of Mr. Tomas foe Thebery took plain at Cowparetreet Rooms, Ilty-rced ; Mr. la niED WALL= in th e chair. Amongst those present were Mr. Humphreys (coroner for Middlesex), Mr. Stafford Allen, Dr. Bruce, Mr. Watkinson, Mr. Bolton, Mr. Anderson, Dr. Bletchley, Mr. Holden, Mr. Hansen, Mr. Cooke, he. A letter was read from Colonel De la Rae, regretting his &Mews, and promising his active support. The Cflammim, at the opening of the proceedings, en premed a hope that the new parliament would differ essentially in its 'tics and chamber from that which was about to expire. t behoved them to consider whom they sent from Finsbury as their representatives, and he trusted they would not confide their interests to untried men. Mr. Tornio' had bees in parliament before, and had proved himself a faithful and an able advocate of popular rights. As • man of letters he was equally distinguished, and for hie own part he thought they cou ld find no better man to represent them. Mr. Tower's, who was warmly received on presenting himself, addressed the meeting at considerable length, dwelling especially on those topics which related to load and netioml taxedon. The local rates in fit. Luke's were now 4e. 4d. is the pound, and he found that the sum they had paid last year amounted, on average, to more than 10s. a-head on every individual in the ;with. Ten years ago they had had to pay but Cm • head. The cause of this in crease of harikari was not far to seek ; the City pushes had, by meet architectural improvements, con trived to disburthen themselves of a great number of the poorer classes, who bad been driven into St. Luke's and Bothnal•green ; and the destruction of humble dwellings to make room for new railways in Clerkenwell and else where had con tr ibuted to the same result. The represen tatives of Finsbury in perimment ought to deal with such medical questions. Railway companies, be thought, ought to be compelled within certain limits to rebuild habitations for the working classes, or to compensate the parish whose industry they dislocated. A select committee last session had reported.in farmer of repealing the local statutes by which that and other metropolitan perishes governed them selves. If this were dome, their representatives ought to insist that the area of rating should be enlarged, and that the Bank of England and Lombard-street should be made to help in the support of the poor now cast upon Bt. Luke's. Imperial taxation had unfortunately increased contemporaneously with local rates. In 1854, the average charge on the whole community was under db., whereas now it was more than 455. a-head. The least they might ask of the new parliament was to make them once mom in taxation forty-shilling 6 freeholders. (Laughter and cheers.) Mr. Terms peoossdsd to urge the alarms of the middle clam to a greater share in administrative trusts and honours now almost monopolised by the landed interests and their connections. Men who had proved themselves capable and zealous in local government ought to have the comer of ad vancement open to them in the Civil Berries. This was what had helped so powerfully to render popular the pre sent ruler of France; and he believed it was a system far more politic end Just than that which sought to create • separate and spe c bureetterstic class through the agency of competitive examination. (Loud cheers.) A vote of approval and confidence was moved by Mr. T. RocroN, supported by Dr. Berme, and passed unanimously. A numerous and influential committee, including Colonel De la Rue, Dr. Wildhore, Mr. B. Allen, Mr. Comer, Mr. Walker, kn., was then appointed, and a vote of thanks so the chairman having been carried the meeting separated. RBD HAIR IX PARIS. The Paris correspondent of the Post writes : "A thoughtful and inquiring English friend, coming away from the races last Sunday, observed—' How very odd, so many pretty young ladies driving themselves is basket carriages ; but still more 'Smogs, bow many of them have what 1 suppose we must politely call golden hair. What is nature about that she is producing so many reddish fair-haired beauties just now! Mrs. M— (who is very severe) being present, I indulged in a significant frown at my friend, the innocent husband of the said lady. A solemn silent pantie ensued, which Mrs. Id— broke eventually by observing—' Is it true that the Emperor is lams, and that the Empress never speaks to her husband ! What won derful stories we get over from Great Britain!' But I think I may say • few words about the singular practice of doing something, I presume, chemical to the human hair, which turns certain dear ladies of natural and vaned com plexions into • series of uniform blondes, approaching what a Yorksbireman would call • a red-haired lass.' Poets and painters, we know, prefer this odour. Shakopee*, Dante, Tama, and Goethe,i and all the old Italian and Spanish painters go in for reddish fair hair. All the people of the sunny south like that colour by instinct. But, until the present day, lovely women generally contented themselves with the tint Nature bestowed. We have all read about the period of patches and powder, and have seen the hair to drawings at differeat epochs of civilised history turned lain every conceivable conceit, from the classically beautiful, when the ringlets were at the back of the head, to later days, when they bung in corkscrew luxuriance about the ears. At what period in the world's history did • lady whose hair was naturally brown or black deliberately go to the hair artiste and request that coiffeur to turn it into a light red ! That is what some ladies of Paris are now doing. It is the fashion. Yet more wonderful things still are done to make ladies more beautiful. Manse of hair, ever ans. mooting in else, are stuck on where satire's handiwork ends. These bores commenced with us modestly enough ; they are now about the circumference of a soup plate. As much am 160 fr. is paid for one of these hairy deceptions, which are generally imprisoped is net work, occasionally studded with diamonds, sad often half circled with • broad golden comb. Do you think iaventsze ends here ! Not • bit of it. 'I he front hair is a curious nest of floral and other conceits, reminding as of as old poet's linen Her hair was rolled in many • carlotts fret, Much like • rich and cc-ious coronet; Upon whose arches twenty Cupids lay. • And then the little hate with mare carious feathery con mita. As • Frenchman said the other day—• Trap de choreal et pea user de chapeau.' What an elaborate get up appears to be now necessary to invite the mon &lieu' affections of the Inert. And how odd this wiper will look when • quarter of • oa•tury has passed away. Do we not now wonder how oar fa►hers fell dee. perately m love with ladies who dressed in the fashion of the Pint Err ire, with waists under their arms, and Ruth a comic h I' We almost marvel they married inch queer figures, and that we were consequently brought into this wicked world. Go and see the pale gingerbread win with long plaits descending to the feet of Madame Carvalho. as Marguerite In Puma (when playing at the Lyrique). Go and see how the doctor paasioostely runs atom the garden after that romantic coijicur. Let us humbly treat all faahioes with sublime respect. No ore is superior to their influence.

At the recent anniversary meeting of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Societies, held in the Chapter-bows, Wells, coosiderable amusement was caused by the intro ductory portion of Archdeacon Denison's speech. The ven. archdeaconpiecd highly the journal with which his name is •fed , tee ChurrA and State Review, and smartly condemned the Saturday Review. It was known to most of the persons present that a contributor to the latter paper was in the hall, and the archdeacon's hearty castigation was on that account received with extraordinary hilarity. The archdeacon introduced the subject by stating that his in dictment against the Committee of Council on Education had bees reprinted from a certain review called the Church and Seek Review. He then west on to say—There may be some very *soonest people here who are unfortunate enough not to see the ChurrA and State Review. If so, I can only my that they labour under • gnat misfortune, and I compassionate them—(laughter)—they save six shil lings a year, and gain • greet loss. (Renewed laughter.) An excellent friend of mine said to me the other day, " Yours is a find-rate review, but very dull. flatillhter.l It is not like the Saturday Review—that is what I mean. (Continued merriment.) Some people have great admira tion for the Saturday Review—l have never been so affected. (Great laughter.) Count Mostalembert was standing the other day in a room in Loudon, does to the door, when the editor of the Saturday Review came up with' his little boy—the little boy, twelve years oki, bad just come from Eton for the bonder'. The Count shook the youth by the band, and said to him, "I suppose you have not mach to do now—probably you write • good deal io the Saturday Review." (Loud laughter.) Ido not think dram-drinking and stimulants good for the moral 1 stamina of man. Indiscriminate abate of anything people I have hitherto thought honest, decent, and respectable, I. not, I think, good food for the English mind. (Hoar, bear). I think I shall put in the hands of the reporters a quaint mine for making • lively periodical upon which I stumbled the other day. It is a very curious thing, undoubtedly I old, and bean some tram of later adaptation. I am in- I I dined to think a dull review Is the best. (Laughter). Any man not quite an idiot, nor wholly ignorant, can, with the aid of the helps mentioned in the recipe of which I have spoken, write very well In the Saturday Review, but it I takes • man of some parte and information, dears% charac ter, and repute, to write in • dull review.

The document was proved to be a letter written by Rayner, the manager of Mr. Hall's magazine, and it was addressed to the foreman, Mr. Moak, at Faversham. It contained most serious complaints of the condition of the powder bar. eels sent to Erith. Mr. John F. Hall here stepped forward, and said that be was the eon of the London partner, and was assistant to the firm, be could therefore give some explanation. The firm had received co complaints for three year past. Three years ago they had received from • maker a number of eery defective barrel', and in oonsequence of the min. plaints than made the Messrs. Hall had erected a large cooperage, at which all the barrels were now made, under their ownsupervialon. The letter cf Mr. Rayner bore no date, but it was evidently written in reference to what bad happened three yeere ego. The Foreman—Have you not other magazines at Frith where an examination of the general condition of the barrels could be male ? at Erith. They are not in use ; but we have magazines at Liverpool arid elsewhere which would admit of examiaation. Burgle manufactured by the seine men A Jaros-0. Hall distinctly told us last week that no iron was used in the magazines, and now we find that a go. veroment officer saw iron nails and rods on all sides. Witness-1 caanot speak from personal knowledge of the old magazine, which the government bought three years ago ; but in the new magazine all the nails. he., were cop per. Ile wither who spoke as to the state of the old magazine admitted that he had only been in it once for a moment. The Cormier—l think it would be best to write to the Board of Trade, and ask them to sopoint some competent scientific men to mac an examinajon of the state of the barrels in the other magazines. The Foreman—The question of the bad manufacture of the powder barrels has suddenly arises, although it was en tirely unsuspected by us last week. It would, ore, be very necessary to ascertain by some disinterested *vides:es what the actual state of the cue may be. it would be ab. surd for us to return a verdict that the ezplosion back place from an accident, if another jury were at the same time in po-session of evidence proving that there was culpable we lt**. • Coroner said that be should at once communists with the Board of Trade upon the subject.
