LONDON. WEDNESDAY, OCT. 14. THE REWARD OF LITERATURE. STARTING from a recent announcement about the price paid to M. Vwroa 111:00 by his pub lishers, a morning contemporary has been dis owning, or rather uilating upon, the rewards of literature in the present day. The observations of our contemporary are of the usual character, and, as is customary in such writing, quite without the necessary qualifications. MILTON only received 51. for " Paradise Lost," but see what a novelist receives now : and so forth, closing with these words :—" The author of the present day, it may " be said to his disparagement, keeps a shop; " but if he keeps his shop well, it will keep him. "In the end, his best patrons, the public, " will extend to him precisely so much patronage " and support as the excellence of his merchandise " and the rectitude of his conduct may warrant." It is a s tonishing to note what a conjuror that " end " is ; we are fur ever being told that " in the " end " all sorts of things happen which it is notorious do Net happen. Virtue and merit, for ex ample, always succeed " in the end." Taking large tracts of time and human life, this is true ; but applied to individual cases, it is false. If it wore true, this life would not be, in any sense, a state of trial. It may, and no doubt does, seem to struggling virtue and struggling merit that a little less uncertainty would be agreeable, and answer all the purpose. But neither virtue nor merit can find comfort in fibs about what always comas to pass "in the end." To say that the modern pro ducer in literature always finds in " the end " that " his best patrons, the public, will extend to " him precisely so [as I much patronage and sup " port as the excellence of his merchandise and " the rectitude of his conduct may warrant," is, on the face of it, untrue. If we are permitted to include the drama, it is false even to audacity. Nor is it any secret that thoroughly worth less books have managed, and do manage, under our very oyes, to float into large and remunera tive circulation. It would be a thankless tusk to quote instances ; but assuredly a task only too easy. There are two conditions of a paying succesi in literature, when the patron is, as should be and actually is the case, the public; uitolioerity, or else commanding talent or genius, producing what has immediate, as well as perhaps universal and permanent adaptations. but nobody can affirm that when either of these conditions exists a pay ing gimbals is certain ; and all the clever criticism that can be got up in rotation to the doubtful or wholly smothered cases merely amounts to saying that where there is failure there is some cause for THE XXPRESS, WEDNESDAY -_-.,,. it. Men of letters have no right to be grumblers, and no sane man would wish arbitrarily to altt • M to their principle the terms upow which the lite rary producer now stands with regard to the public ; but it looks like unfeeling insolence for the successful and the strong to affirm, as they pass by their fallen or falling comrades, that " in the end" the public will be sure to award " precise" distributive justice to all. If it were so, literature would, indeed, ho a wonderful profes sion, and men of letters the most blessed of the eons of ADAM. The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle always to the strong, but the prizes of literature are always distributed " pre " cisely" in accordance with the deserts—and in particular (for that is more than half the joke) -- according to the " rectitude" of literary shop keepers ! " Oh, too happy they. if their good fortune they knew !" * Oa rosin was so cleric ► mat " thil they woad "Da make him ArchhiShop khat account." TM Irish Church was a bishop's :prisline, and the wcrkimg oiergy were a vary oinslient body of SIM with very small parishes and still was Thor inoomos: But the bishops—" what should ho say of them? " They were • sort of veiled prophets—objects of " great awe to the starving clergy and of " great curiosity to the inquiring laity." This is all very amusing if it is not polities. Tiu English newspapers which, when the Ame rican Confederacy disappeared, took up with the political party nearest the South, and which have repeatedly assured us of late that the country was about to repudiate the Republicans-are again left to regret their broken predictions. The State elections are one by one going the other way. All the four states with elections appointed this month, have been carried by the Republicans. Thirty-four states vote in November, but those which have already spoken are the " pivotal " ones. People who know anything of American affairs have no manner of doubt that an overwhelming majority in the Union will declare for General GRANT and the Republican rule. The violence and persecution in some of the Southern States towards the freed men and towards all Northerners, are ill calculated to improve the chances of the Democratic party. OUR CONTEMPORARIES. (THIS DAY.) I.IIIT.E.AL TERROR TORT LWOW. The Times augurs the best results from the fact that at Warrington Mr. Glad■tone spoke four columns on the subject of British naval and military administration. Our contemporary admits that the right hon. gentleman has the hest of the argument over his opponents, and as serts that the tones have always been foremost in proposing schemes involving increased expenditure ; but the newts double whether the statesmen of any party have really much to boast of in the matter of public economy. It is true that the late ministers did reduce the expenditure somewhat from the enormous amount it had reached in lafie, but they made no real reform of the system, and they afford the present goveniment plausible reasons for asserting that its own expenditure has been made aeon. vary by the plans sanctioned by its predecessor. But the world eares little for by-goner, and if Mr. Gladstone be, as his speech indiestee, really in earnest in the work of economical reform, he has a splendid opportunity, and the Times welcomes him as the moat powerful of allies. When the accusations of liberal extravagance and the I ACM:ft of conservative economy are sifted, the evidence is, says the Daily Knrs, found to prove comparative liberal economy and real conservative extravagance. The authors of the misrepresentations that have been made can shield themselves from the odium of deliberate fabrication only by the plea, which may be valid enough, of crass ignorance. But the statesmen and politicians who are pro;iting by these artifices have not the i•amo excuse. They know the real state of the matter. A little candour would be graceful in them. Since the present ministers came into Ake they have courted popularity by yielding to every demand upon the public puree. They have pursued what Mr. Gladstone calls the system of making things pleasant all round : and the nation has three millions extra to pay. TONIC PUNISIIMBNT. No doubt it would be possible to put on paper a scheme of tonic imprisonment for adult offenders, but the thing would be terribly hard to put in practice. A middle-aged housemaid, named Maur ANN MAnowarrra, has lately boon sentenced to a year's imprisonment, with " such labour as the " gaol authorities should think her fit to per '• form," fur the crime of attempting to sot her master's house on fire. She did it out of revenge, having received notice to quit, and in the evening she came in a cab "to sec what damage " she had done, and to say good bye!" She bad then already taken laudanum, and in the station-house cell she made a desperate attempt to strangle herself. A former mistress gave evidence that the woman was, when not in censed. a " moot devoted and faithful person," and a police-inspector added that she was an opium -eater, had made previous attempts on her own life, and had once before attempted to set fire to a Louse. She was undefended. The jury strongly recommended her to mercy, and Mr. Justice KEATINO is reported to have said " the • • greatest mercy he could show her was to have '• her confined so long as to have her mind brought " buck to its proper tone." This is probably an imperfect report of what his lordship actually did say ; but one thing is clear, that, although M CRY ANN MAROMMITB will be compelled to abstain from opium and strong drink for a twelvemonth, a prison is not the place in which such a mind will recover its " tone." It is proved by abundant evidence that one of the greatest difficulties of gaol governors is in the pitiable wunt of " tone" displayed by the majority of female criminals. The sentence on this woman was not a severe one, and we have nothing to say about it, except that as a device for restoring " tone " to the mind of such a half-mad creature it could have no value. It is far more likely that she will at last succeed in putting an end to her life, or, if not, that she will come out of prison utterly broken up in mind and body, than that she will be improved by the scenery, the confinement, and the company of a gaol. 4 . RUN TO E.:IRM" MRS BRADDOX is supposed to stand at the head of sensational novel writers, and there are few probably who would care to contest the pre eminence with her. There is no doubt that this lady's novels interest a large number of readers ; but, unfortunately, the interest is of the kind awakened by a perusal of the police reports. She is a skilful manufacturer of horrors, a coarse but brilliant colourist, who can paint roughly and effectively upon a sign -board, but has none of the delicacy and just sense of proportion which mark the touch of the true artist. The strongest feeling ever excited by this kind of narrative is vulgar curiosity, a wish to know what will come next, and how it will all end. No reader surely ever cared a jot for any one of Miss BRAD LON'S characters; no reader we suppose over looked into any one of her tales a second time. The power of accumulating end arranging incidents so as to excite interest and to retain attention is no doubt a considerable gift. With other and higher qualifications it might contribute to the making of a first-rate novelist. " Run to Barth." Miss Bemoans 's latest fiction, is not without considerable merit, if the province of the novelist be to invent horrors and to weave together a number of the wildest improbabilities ; but if we demand from the writer of fiction some skill in the delineation of character, some signs of that humanity which is the soul of poetry, and a little at least of that verisimilitude which brings art into ; harmony with Nature, then must this tale be regarded as a blunder. The construction of the novel is of the coarsest texture ; if anything can surprise the reader of such a tale it will be the hasty and clumsy denouement of the third volume. Of course there is plenty of strong food for strong stomachs—murders, secret poisonings, accusations of murder, accusations of adultery, children stolen from their parents, diabolical fiends in human shape who have no fear and no pity, mysterious intrigues, strange deaths, and sundry tricks of legerdemain on the part of the novelist or of her characters which will sorely tax the credulity of the reader. But, after all, the world is wide, and tastes differ, and we are reminded that a certain learned Professor, who has much Latin and more Greek, has pronounced the author of " Lady " Audley's Secret " the first of female novelists. It is reasonable to suppose, therefore, that " Run "to Earth," like Miss BRADDON'S former tales, will ensure a public of its own, and enjoy a brisk circulation. If a tale that is made to sell fulfils its destiny, what more need the manufacturer desire ? MR. BERNAL OSBORNE. MR. BERNAL OSBORNE was happy the other day at Nottingham in a few of his criticisms. His wit is uncertain, and sometimes excites im patience, but when it is bright again the blurs are forgotten. After the Hyde-park agitation, he said, Lord DEBBY opened his eyes, and "he and they who had talked about lateral " extension and the degradation of the suffrage " turned tail, and, acting like the Spanish soldiers, " fired off their muskets into their own ranks and " fraternised with the people." Speaking of edu eation Mr. OSBORNE pointed to Scotland and Prussia as instances of its power. " They were " canny fellows in Scotland. They recently did a " good stroke of business ; they got seven moot " hers from England. Would they have done that "if they bad not been educated ?" As for the Liberal policy of the government towards Ireland, he bud watched earnestly for it, and heard Lord MAYO-" a most excellent man—rather dull," but at the end of his five hours' speech all they could make out was something about " levelling up " and the endowment of a Catholic University. It was almost the policy of Pfrr in IWO, which ho called " concurrent endowment ; " but " Lord " MAYO'S policy was like the announcements in the " playbills of the theatre—it existed only for one " night and by particular desire." The Bishop of rArrox OF OXFORD While admitting that Sir Roundel! Palmer might efficiently represent one side of the mental and moral of Orford, the Herald still insists that he would altogether fail to be a truthful exponent of views which he would be sent to Parliament expresily to advocate. lie has gained the highest honours which the University can bestow, but be espouses opinions far different from those which are her time honoured heirloom. Ile has scholarship, academical position, and accomplishments, but he has not that poli tical faith which is an indispensable desideratum. Con !wrestlee he may be in the matter of the Irish church, but he is nevertheless a pledged liberal upon other points, and therefore be is an inadequate representative of an essen tially conservative constituency. The Star hopes that the stain thrown upon the reputa tion of the university by the result of the last general election will be in part wiped out by the return of Sir Bounden Palmer. If, however, the election of the future Liberal Lord Chancellor for the great Tory university were in any degree to be taken as a distinct pledge of his adhesion to the party of reaction, the Star would be sorry to see even Mr. Mowbray defeated. But our oontem ponu7 does not believe that Sir R. Palmer, if elected, will be elected as a renegade from the liberal faith. The dif ference between Mr. Gladstone and the right bon. gentle man is, after all, only one of detail, not one of principle, and one which may yet be adjusted. This difference will not be widened by Sir It. Palmer's election for Ox ford, but will rather be bridged over by the brilliancy of an almost unhoped conversion. TRH INHIBITION OY THE BET. J. rosou.s. The .I.Mily Netts thinks the inhibition of this out-and out ritualist will probably do something to check the ex orinive development of ritualism in the diocese of Chiches ter, but it is a poor triumph to control the externals of worship when the extremist doctrines symbolised remain unassailable. Even this, however, is a more hopeful way to unity than the cry for legislation; for it is evident that such quarrels as those which now rend the Church of England can never be settled by law. In his disobedience to the admonition of his diocesan, and in tin expressed determination to perform an even snore than usually extreme ritualistic service, Mr. Purdue; affords, the Times contends, another instance of that in relent disregard of all authority which has from the first . . characterised the ritualistic clergy. According to their professed principlm, their whole authority is directly derived from bishops, and it is one of the maxims of their school that nothing can be done rightly without a bishop. But as soon as the bishop interferes with themselves they at once scout his authority, and refuse to be controlled. It is difficult to imagine • more discreditable spectacle than is presented by the present conduct of Mr. Perches. There is certainly no other profession in which a subordi nate would treat his superior with such contempt. What ever the law of the case may be, common decorum would suggest that while the question is pending Mr. Punkas should consult the wishes of his lawful superior. The rittill expresses a hope that the bishop will lose no time in testing the validity of his inhibition, and that other bishops will follow Ids example. Foßnorretf lignoze.—The noire urges the claims of Mr. Bassani, Dr. Blanc, and Lieutenant Prideaux to 601328 reward more substantial than the mere recogni tion of their services. Bo far from the failure of the mils- sion being attributable to mismanagement on their part, they performed the duty imposed upon them, anatinnal duty of the highest importance, in a creditable way. When they undertook it they knew they were incurring grave risk of imprisonment, torture, e►as death, and that in the dis charge of it they actually incurred sufferings, both mental and physical, of the severest kind. To leave con duct of this kind without a fitting reward amounts almost to national dishonour. The nation shrank from the disgrace of leaving its envoys unassisted ; surely it cannot, with honour, leave them unrecompensed. TUB INCURABLE ?lima° I—Mr. Vining writes to the Timis :—"Some three or four years ago I made a strenuous and earnest effort to put au end to the box keeping system. I paid the boxkoepers and put up notices requesting the public to give no fees at a very heavy los; to myself, but which I was quite willing to boar provided it was of advantage to the visitors to my theatre. Us does! the public would give ! I found I was amply foregoing an ease to my heavy rental to put the money into the pockets of my boxkeepers, and, discovering my error. I returned to the old-established plan." The present price of wheat is two-thirda what it was last year at this period.

The !Alpert , of to-day publisbol a long letter from M. Emile de Girardin to General Prim, in which he urges that in revolutions it is necessary not only to over turn speedily, but to replace swiftly. Of constituent as semblies ho strongly disapproves. "If you have power,' . rays M. de Girardin, "to decree the exclusion of the two presumptive heirs of the crown in both lines, if you have power to diesolve the existing Cortes, if you have power to change the electoral law, you and your colleagues hail power to proclaim the Federal Republic, the Iberian United States, and on the basis of this form of government, fully justified by the vacancy of the throne and the shameful flight of Queen Isabella, to frame a constitution upon which all Span might have been summoned to pronounce by way of plebisc i te and of universal suffrage." We read in the Slid , :—" Our excellent friend M. A. Cromieux has just addressed to the junta of Madrid an eloquent and hearty expreasiou of approval. It is the outburst of an honest conscience, of • well tried patriotism. The heart of the writer is still young. The veteran of our own contests conjures the Spaniards to abandon the folly of permanent armies. He reminds them of our revolution of 1848, so glorious and so soon abortive. He advises them to repudiate any thing like • military dictatorship, to diffuse primary edu cation, making it gratuitous and obligatory, and entirely to separate law from politics." hf.Crensicaz also urges the junta to have nothing to do with kings or princes.
