Dublin would soon become to have a reasonable provase of success. the gayest of capitals ; it is by no means the dui-, lest sitth nothing but a Viceroy. And why should there not be an Irish Windsor, or an Irish Balmoral. or an Irish Osborne ? The Prince of WALF.s is an ardent sports man ; and in no country in the world is a good rider or a good shot more heartily' appreciated than in Ireland. In hunting, in racing, in yachting. in shooting, his Royal High nese would find Ireland and Irishmen not tmor ' thy of his emulation and of their own renown. To say that in Ireland he would find himself sur rounded by the very best of company. the bravest, the heartiest, the most hospitable, would be super fluous. We do most sincerely trust that the splendid celebration and ceremonial at the Cathedral of St. Patrick on the 18th in to be the augury of a new era of royal domicile in Ireland. According to the p rogr amme, the scene in the cathedral, which the munificence of a patriotic benefactor has restored, will be one of extraordinary grandeur and solem nity. Whether St. PATRICK ever existed or not [some Irish legislators have ventured to dispute his existence] next week be will certainly deserve to have existed : for thanks to the liberal permission of the Cardinal Archbishop, Catholics and Protes tants will be assembled together in brotherly unity around his shrine to welcome and to witness the installation of the new Knight of his illustrious Order. If the heavens are propitious—the blue eyes of green Erin are somewhat tearful and capricious—Dublin will enjoy a most auspicious holiday. If beauty and goodness can charm away the clouds, there will be no lack of sunshine to greet the PRINCESS whose coming bids fair to fill every kindly Irish heart with joy. IN the current number of the British Quailed, Retina there is an article on the " Irish Church " Question," in whioh there are some very happy sentences about Mr. GLADIrrONL. " Mr. GLAD , " isroNes intellect," observes the author , " is of a 1 " peculiar character, but it has one marked die " tinction ;it never goes back. Whatever height "it attains it keeps. " truth he sees he holds with a tenacity from which " nothing can detach him. It is this, and the " assurance of his faithfulness and sincerity, " which have sesured to him the confidence of the "nation. With this conspicuous virtue he has, "at the same time, one equally conspicuous fail ing. He gives largely, but he seldom gives "wholly. He is like the boy who cheerfully pre ," seated his friend with an orange, and then asked 1" fora little of the peel. He likes to keep bock " just a little." This last criticism received a slight and merely casual but rather amusing illustration in the right honourable gentleman's speech of Friday evening. Here are his words as reported : —" My right hon. friend the SIGGIIETAILY for " INDIA threatens me in committee with an rode " finite number of what he calls categorical ques " tions. It is perfectly open to my right hon. " friend to put as large a number of these " questions to me as he pleases ; I only hope he " will allow me to exercise a certain amount of " discretion in the answers I shall give him. I " have gone far in the declarations I have made, " and further Ido not intend to go." The reti cence here, however, is a reticence of policy. In Mr. GLLDSTONt'S ordinary reserves there is a shade of haughtiness, but it is the haughtiness belong ing to that type of character which is so often better than its word. THE New York Herald, fairly enough, informs its readers of the indebtedness of England to its Abys sinian correspondent, and remunerates itself hand somely in this way for any service there may have been in the matter. The " Horse Guards," — which appear to stand as the type in our contemporary's mind of the whole British Army and Navy, Parliament, the Stock Exchange, " the Head of the Church"—and her Majesty the QUEEN, are described as moved to the core by a certain telegram placed at the disposal of the Lon don press by the agent of the Herald in London. " The Income-tax collectors ruled their columns for " the collection of that extra penny war tax, the " Parliamentary opposition became more hold, and " the Stock Exchange experienced a regular " `ruck' of ups and downs. The agitation ex " tended, and it may be fairly claimed that Great " Britain was just as completely roused by the " publication of this single special telegram to the " Herald in the columns of the London Times as it " was a few days before when Queen Vicvolits " sent for Mr. DISRAELI and commissioned the " literary Israelite to form a Cabinet." Having placed the New York Herald before our eyes as the universal instructor, we see also that the writer institutes a contrast between the enterprise of that colossal print and the meagre use which is made by the London press of the Atlantic cable in obtaining American news. Fully appreciating the energy of our Ame rican contemporaries in quenching the thirst of their readers, it seems necessary to remind them that American politics at ordinary time are of less interest to this old Europe of ours than are the movements of the older civilizations to the Americans. America is a very great country, but Europe has had the start of it by some centuries. THE morning after Lord STANLEY moved hiss amendment on the Irish Church question two Liberal members were within the precincts of the House talking over the previous night's debate. Liberal Member No. 1—" How awkward Sway/ " seemed, did'nt he I" Liberal Member No. 2 " Yes ; he'd better come over to us at once." No. 1—" He'd be much more comfortable." No. 2—" Just so. B— once told me he " never knew what a Radical was till he talked to " Lord STANLEY." But Radicalism, like every thing else, may be immensely differentiated —or, as Mwrow wrote the word, differenced—by its inspiration. What a gulf between the late Sir WILLIAM Moxr.swoaru, for example, and Mr. Bailer FASHION is not only fleeting but impatient. It insults to-day what it demanded yesterday. A Dresden letter says that the Queen of SAXONY has expressed displeasure at the "untidy, dishevelled " style of wearing the hair which has lately come into fashion. Having frequently to receive English and American ladies, who " sometimes appear " with their hair hanging loosely about their " shoulders," her Bffe.msry has established a re gulation that all persons with such coiffurm shall not be admitted at court. IR ereuntsp EVERY EVENING. --- LONDON, TUESDAY, APRIL 7. -- - ROY IL IT E2T. 4 IN IRELAND. rust T‘ e. month of Apr7l, 1868, will mark, let us t and believe, en epo ch in the annals of the sister. isle. The debate and division in the House o f Cotonou last week signalise d the close of an era of domination and injustice, and, although the good work may be tardily and Painfu ll y accomplnhed, pointed to bet ter times to come, and, what is better than ineffectual vows and halting legislation. held out to the new generation the promise of a great atone meta . , or t •ee p ast, an d a full satisfac tion for the future of a suffering raoe• The vote on the Irish Church was indeed "the bow "in the cloud. - The flood of wrong is stayed at last, and the Ark of Union rests upon a height re moved beyond the destroying passions of "afflicted " centuries." Fenianians, if not dead, is dispirited , and dispersed, and the sweet influences of the spring tide season were never more congenial to the fresh ened hopes of the beautiful land oft the shamrock. a- No human beings are more sensiive to kin meta, more easily grateful for generosity and good will, more open to the charm of gracious looks and p l easan t ways, more susceptible gen tle smiles and of a passionate personal:devotion, more impression . - able, for better or for worse, than the population of Ireland. We cannot doubt that the clearly expressed determination (of the great Liberal majority of the British Parliament and people to make Irish rights and Irish wrongs their own. will sink into the hearts of our fellow subjects on the other side of St. Oeorge's Channel, and as time runs on, and the work of reconciliation advances, slowly but surely, to the good end, will not only pluck from a national memory the rooted sorrows, and raze out the written troubles of the past, but reconcile and reunite the two races in bonds of an enduring brotherhood. But for a people of lively sensibilities and affectionate temperament, something more and better than healing measures of legislation is needed to prove to every eye and ear the great yearning of the heart of England. Ireland must be made to as that it is part of the United Kingdom, not by oreiqueat or by long adverse possession, but by the golden link of a common sovereignty and =pre macy--the sovereignty and supremacy of the Orown Imperial. It may be that, philosophically considered, royalty is but a superstition, a cere mony, a page ant • , it may be that in constitutional countries royalty is but a convenient fiction, or a solemn impersonation. Yet in this free and united kingdom at least royalty is something more and better than all this. It is the majesty of equal law, the crown and consecration of equal rights, the living embodiment of national unity and power. It is a symbol no doubt ; it is a personification as suredly ; but it is the symbol of the historic commonwealth, and the personification of the life and being of the State. These considerations, among others, have caused us to rejoice at the announcement of the royal visit to Ireland. It cannot be denied that the sister kingdom has not had her fair share of the loving grace of the royal face. There have doubtless been reasons for this regrettable fact--reasons of State, or reasons of a more private nature, which it would be impertinent to discuss. If among the reasons of State is to be accounted the frequently disturbed state of Ireland of late years. we would venture to suggest that perhaps had royal visits been more frequent, Ireland might have been leas disturbed. If among reasons of State is to be reckoned the presence of a Lord- TN F.

WHEN Mr. Ruzst - ex told the House of Com mons that he preferred the appellation " Imperial Englishman " to the name of " Briton " his words conveyed a meaning which some of his hearers probably failed to perceive. It is at once singular and unfortunate that all the QVLE2eB subjects are not known by one name. Englishmen, Irishmen, Scotchmen, and Welshmen, are supposed to speak the same language, and yield allegiance to the same Sovereign, yet they scrupulously maintain the designations which are supposed to indicate their nationalities. This applies equally to the natives of the islands in the English and Irish Channels. Manxmen, Jeraeymen, Guernsey men, are proud of their distinctive appellations. It is doubtful, however, if natives of Alderney and Sark could be designated in such a way as to pre. vent confusion, and a native of the Isle of Mull would find even greater difficulty in this case. There is no reason why local names should be superseded ; but it would be advantageous if a name could be discovered which should apply generally. A citizen of the United States may be a New Englander, a Kentuckian, or a Californian when at home ; but to the rest of the world he is an American. So with an Italian, a German, a Frenchman. In Italy, Germany, and France the differences of race and the peculiarities of speech are as marked as in the United Kingdom. A Neapolitan differs as much from a Piedmonteae as a native of Kent differs from a native of Caithness. German, as spoken colloquially in Berlin, no more resembles the German of Frankfort than the dialect of Cockney dons resembles the dialect of Aberdeen. There are as many points of dissimilarity between a native of Brittany and a native of Provence as between a Dorset labourer and a Dublin car driver. Yet Italians, Germans, and Frenchmen adopt a generic appellation whereas the English man or Irishman or Scotchman shrinks from admitting that he has everything of moment in common with his fellow subject. At the time of the union with Scotland, it was proposed to speak of the natives of the southern and northern parts of the island as North and South Britons. The experiment was tried, but failed utterly. Since the publication of the journal entitled the North Brikm, the epithet has become doubly unwelcome to the natives of Scotland. It is easier to point out this anomaly than to indicate a remedy. The difficulty is that national ' names are adopted by general consent, and cannot be imposed by authority. France took its name from a small section of the country. In time Prussia may be merged into Germany. Even now although a Prairies' boasts of his name he is yet quite pleased when addressed as a German. Not so with either Irishmen or Sootchmen. Let al foreigner address them as Englishmen, and they will indignantly assure him that he is mistaken. These petty rivalries ought to be things of the past. The natives of a United Kingdom should at least have a name in common. Till they pos sess a title of general application, they cannot be rightly recognised as fellow citizens of the same great Empire. ALEXANDRA-PARK. ~, i L~ Vie Court. wrsrosos CASTLE, APRIL fi.

PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. The debate to take place in the Senate after Easter upon the too great latitude which, ac_ cording to the church petition, is allowed to free thinking professors in the university is prefaced by a very curious published controversy between a young physician named Grenier (who, after re ceiving his diploma in Paris and commencing actual practice in the country, got notice from the Minister of Public Instruction that he was no longer licensed to kill or cure because some materialist doctrines had been discovered in his answers to certain questions put to him by the examiners, and he must therefore go through his examination de novo) and the Bishop of Orleans. The legal right of M. Duruy to revoke a diploma regularly granted is very much questioned. Prosecutions have been instituted against the Journal du Roubaix, the Prop* du Nord, and the Echo du Nord (of Lille), for having accused the French government of an intention to supply English manufacturers with capital for the purpose of enabling them to undersell and ruin the French manufacturers at Roubaix. The Preue, whose sensational news it is right to observe very frequently fails to be confirmed, says : A messenger arrived yesterday at the Italian Legation with despatches said to be of the very highest importance. The memenger stayed but one day in Paris, and then re turned to Florence. We are sound that the despatches in question relate to a modification of the September Cat vention. The Joan of Aro tower at Compiegne fell down on Saturday, and the crash caused great terror in the quarter of the Rue Jeanne d'Aro. There was no loan of life; but a little girl, the daughter of a wine-shop keeper named Gruing, escaped death by a marvellous accident. Owing to a temporary illness she was taken out of her little bed a short time before the accident occurred , to sleep with her parents in another part of their house. When the tower fell the bed which the child had recently quitted was smashed into atoms. . . At the Bourse, Rente, after rising fully 10c., about Saturday's quotations, became dull—not to say depressed, and closed, with a fall of 22}c. for cash and 12ic. for account, at 69fr. 25c. and 69fr. 2t 4c. In other securities there was scarcely any change. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, with Primus Albert Victor mid George, and the Primer Louise, attended by Sir W. Knollys, the Hoe. Mrs. W. Grey, Major Grey, and Mr. Holz man, left Merl. borough.house yesterday for Sandringham, where they will remain for a week, at the expiration of which time they will return to town prior to proceeding en their visit to Ireland. The improvements on the royal estate are being pushed forward with rapidity, aced at the present season of the year the appearances presented is if the most interesting character. The new wing of the hosesewhieh is to °sateen the royal suite of apartments approaches completion, and a much more plaasaat view from the Priacem's boudoir and the drawing-room has been oecered by the removal of the old steward's house end wheel room which stood in the park, near the little church, and which interrupted a pretty view aeress the park in the direetica of Oaetlering. Almost the greaten want in the otherwise beautiful grounds of Sandringham has bees some ornamental water, and a fine sheet, which may almost be called an artificial lake, has bees made, streaking away from the front a/ the measles and Wand room towards the dumb, in which some picturesque csacarks, lee., are being provided. The proems ot improving the reads still continues.

THE ISLE OF BRIDLE •TRAG. ►id CHILDRIN ...cf INTO A WELL. occurrence took place near the village of Foxdale, in the Isle of Man, en Friday afternoon. A miner and farmer residing • little dims:tee from that vii. lege had for some time pant shown symptoms of mental aberration. but no notice seems to have been taken of his state. About five weeks ago, when returning home • little the wane for liquor, he had • fall which frightened him considerably, and his malady was increased. On Monday week he returned home con- Adorably excited and said he must prepare for America, as there would be no more work for him in the mines, the captain having, as be fancied, received • letter advising him not to keep him longer. On Wednesday he said his cows were to be burned in the oowhouss, his sheep killed en the mountain, and hie house burned over his head. On Friday lie remai ned at home for the purpose of attending the funeral of • nephew, and about half-past 11 that day be took three of his children down to see the corpse. Upon his return home he seemed greatly depressed, and his wife became very much alarmed. She sent up to the fields for Archibald Shinim, despatching Emily, her second eldest child, upon the message. After she had gone the husband went out to • well which stood opposite the door of his cottage, and commenced to play with the bucket and winch. This well was a draw well, some twenty feet in depth, and containing eight feet of water. He returned to the house and went out again, three of hie children at the time playing in the yard. His wife, who had taken the youngest child, an infant of three months old, out of the cradle, was in the house, when she suddenly beard one of the children cry out, " Oh, cladda !" Rushing out, still with the infant in her arms, she was horrified to find that the wretched man had thrown two of his children into the well, and was about throwing the third. She seized hold of him, but too late to arrest his purpose. He then turned to her, and mid "We are all to go together;' and endeavoured to take the infant out of ber arms. A struule ensued, but it was short, as he etc ceeded in taking the child from her and throwing it into the well also. He then seized her, but she succeeded in getting away from him, and ran to • neighbouring house for protection. She was followed by him for a little distance. Sad to say he met his second eldest girl, who had been sent to Shinim, and carried her t, the well, into which he threw her, and then con summated the tragedy by jumping in himself. Shinim. who was a little distance o ff tall to another man, heard the screams of Mrs. Lilly, and at once came down, but by the time he reached the well all was over. He got into the bucket, and was lowered. Aa noon as he got down he found four of the children Boating in the water. He at once grasped the child nearest to him, and was hoisted to the top, but through excitement and exhaus tion he allowed her to slip from his grasp. He at once de. ecended again, and was fortunate enough once more to seize her, this time bringing her in safety to the top. It proved to be Emily, the second eldest child, who had been the last thrown in. Again did the brave fellow descend, each time bringing up a child with him, until he had brought up four in all, and another was restored. Of the father and the eldest child he could not discover any traces. The last time he descended he fastened a small line around his waist, and on this occasion the rope of the bucket broke, and the brave fellow was pre cipitated into the well, and had it not been for this line he would in all probability have been drowned. Is about an hour after the occurrence ladders were procured, and the two remaining bodies were got up. The number of them who perished were four, namely:— I James Hilly, thirty-four years of age; Selina Hilly, seven years of age ; Anna Louisa, aged four years.; and. Made line, ailed three months. An moped on the bodies was held on Saturday, by the I High Bailiff of Douglas. The jury returned a verdict o the effect that the three children bad been drowned by James Hilly whilst he was in a state of temporary in sanity ; and that he had drowned himself while in the same state. They appended to their verdict an expression of sympathy with the bereaved woman, and of admiration of the gallant conduct of Shinim. 3f ANSLAUGHTER OF LIEUTENANT BULLOCK, B.A. INQUEST.—(THIS DAY.) This forenoon Dr. Diplock, coroner fur West Middlesex, resumed at the West London Hospital, Hammersmith, the inquiry into the circumstances of the death of Mr. Augustus Thomas John Bullock, a lieutenant in the royal navy, about 40 Tears of age. At the opening of the inquest last Tuesday several witneases were examined. It appeared that the deceased was the eon of Admiral Bullock, and he lived at No. 11. Bnahey-cottages, Teddington. On last Saturday week he left home with 21. in hie pocket. He spent the afternoon in going about from public-house to ppblic-house and treating whoever would drink with him. In this way he appears to have got rid of 1/., for after his death 11. of the original 21. was found in his pocket.
