TitAne's LECTURES.—An action for breach of contract, originating in Mr. Train's recent "lectures " in Cork, has resulted in a verdict for the defendant, Cap tain Tooker, who had agreed to let the Protestant-hall there to a Mr. Dillon for Mr. Train's use, but afterwards, on dis covering the nature of the intended lectures, refund to fulfil the bargain. Captain Tooker is a justice of the peace, and it was argued, against the claim of MU damages, that be would have violated his duty as a magis trate and a loyal subject if be bad allowed seditious sen timents to be disseminated in the building which was under his control, similar to those before uttered in Yougbal and Dungarvan by Mr. Train. STANDING OrODMOTILEIL—The Essex Herald is responsible for the following funny story :—" The wife of a respectable innkeeper had driven over from Chelmsford with the laudable intention of standing godmother' to the infant child of an acquaintance, and fearing she was rather late she at once hastened to the church, and found the clergyman and others waiting, but the child not yet arrived. As it would have been rather a novel precedent, to say the least, to christen a child in its absence, and the clergyman had been already kept considerably beyond his time, the godmother elect, whose acquaintance with liar protege seems to have been of the slightest, lushly undertook to fetch it, and running to the parents' house caught up a baby which a female neighbour held in her arms near the door, and returned with it in triumph to the church. Everything being now in readiness the ceremony was about to proceed, when the chrgrean looking earnestly at the baby asked • Whose child is this r Mr. So and So's' replied the godmother elect. But what was the dismay of the party, and the congregation gene alhen the shrill voice of a little nurse girl in the' background was heard to exclaim, ' No, that I know it ain't ;ou've got the wrong 'mi.' As ;nay be supposed, notwithstanding the solemn character of the ecossion, a titter went round the church, and oould scarcely be said to grow email by degrees and bosun! ully . less' when the godmother having stated, in reply to the minister, that the child was a boy, the persistent nursemaid shouted out, `Na it aint ; it's • girl.' Explanations now ensued : it was clearly shown that the godmother, whose intentions were doubtless of the very best, lad in the hwry of the moment brought the wrong child ; and the • real Dream' having been duly substituted the orrmanY, was pine through without further mishap, and the party went on their way rejoicing." OUR ' OONTEMPORARLM. 41118 . DAY) 411.11DROXX mown. The Time. says Mr. Gladstone has hit the right style when he boldly challenges his opponents to explain to the electors how the national expenditure has in t:relied three millions during the very little more than two ran of a conservative government. His illus tration, too, of the electioneering tactics of conser vatin candidates on the Irish question is also • 600001111fili one, though he might take • hint from the cautions reticence of his opponents in his mode of dealin; with the future bearings of this question. It is idle to suppito that a great measure solemnly adopted by a whole nation will not bo suggestive, and will not have the force of • living precedent. All great measures hang on one family tree, and lead to one another. With regard to his critiarm on the Reform acts, the house can hardly intend to re-open that matter immediately. One thing at a time is the true secret of expedition. First on the list of the future is the Irish Church question. The Dad, Sews agrees with Hr. Gladstone as to the samatios which still defses the Reform Act, and with his remarks on the indiscriminate increase of the estimates. Tllis is a point on which • liberal ministry will be required nog • only to advance upon the retrogression tif Mr. Dints& and his colleagues, but to quicken its owe slow ~Jcb. An efficient sideninistration requires efficient afeainistraton. Mr. Gladdens, while net breakbas with * traditions ef hie party, or neglecting to fortify himself with any of the historic and social strength which belongs to liberalism, will have the courage, it is to be hoped, to be one to the younger and more energetic talent which has gimped Itself about him. The rose enlarges on the positive character of the leader of the opposition. Mr. Gladstone proposes to do some- Gang for Ireland, hie opponents propose to do nothing, or, what comes to the same thing, they decline to state what they will do. The Herald accuses Mr. Gladstone of having but one sejeet, and nays he attempted to deceive his audience by the transparent device that the choice of the country only lies between the disestabliatiment of the Irish or establish ment of the other churches—an artifice about as ingenious aa his effort to show that if any one admits a readiness to reform and reorganise that church he allows that it is in defensible. There is no reason why the Irish church should not continue to occupy the same place it has done in Ireland. TRZ 1102.41. EOLIDAT. The Them reminds its readers that the Queen goes now for the first time among the Alps, and imagines how much she will enjoy the mighty masses with their clothing of mow and glacier, their waterfalls, and their pine forests. Such a foreign excursion is likely, more than anything elm, to give strength to the body and elasticity to the mind. With the Hrpress, the news hopes that English tourists will respect the privacy of the royal party. It is not unnecessary to make these remake, since the fact that the Queen is at Lucian), and that only well-to-do English people are likely to be billed there, may be no protection to her ; for, unhappily, respectabie people are the greatest of in this respect. The Queen has gone on a tour which we all hops will be a pleasant one; let all maid in making it so, by abstaining from importunate loyalty. The Star also expresses a hope that the Queen may not be mobbed; however Lucerne . may be ; that she may be lathered sometinsee the charm of loneliness, or at last of Miranda; that she: ma not be condemned to keep within the limits of her own grepupds, to save 'tomtit from unofficial and amateur Mains-attendant. 01 PllOlllll. Commenting on some of the recent trials of the above character, the Daily News makes some remarks on marries*, in general, llocasitt, it says, is a great 'teacher of tolerance. People who must live together soon make the best of it, and the Moravians, who marry by lot, make just as happy marriages as other people. If a man and woman have not got just the poem who last took their fancy, the fancy soon passes off, and the affection which grows up between them out of mere custom and that use which is second nature is stronger and more lasting than the mere sentiment of youth. Marriages for love are certainly most desirable, but fancy is very apt to be mistaken for love, and it is not the man or woman who marries the last person who has struck his or her fancy who is likely to be happiest in the end. On the whole, perhaps our law on the subject is not open to very much animadversion. It makes an engagement what it ought to be—a serious affair. It takes the only cognisance it can take of the infraction of such an engagement, and, inflicting a pecuniary fine, does so, not by way of solarium to the woman, but of punishment to the man. Such a law, equally with the absence of any law, is much open to abuse. It needs to be administered with discretion, and it is far best when it is recognised, but not resorted to—when it enforces caution, but has not to be used for punishment. REVENUE OFFICERS!

The sudden change in the weather which took place yesterday morning had rathcr en un favourable effect on the Armstrong gun practice of the volunteers. The increased density of the atmosphere rendered the aim more difficult, and the high wind and rain turned even the conical bullets from their track. The practice began at half-past 8 in the morning, under a drizzling rain, and in a fog so thick that the gunners could scarcely see the target. We have before men tioned that this year was the first in which tho volunteers were allowed to practise with the Armstrong guns, and as a matter of fact the majority who were assembled at Shoeburyness had never handled one of those pieces until they had arrived in the Damp : Notwithstanding this draw back the practice was excellent; the intricacy of the gun offered no obstacle to rapidity of loading, and the aim was, as a general rule, far above the average. The Queen's Prize, 100 f., was won by the sth West York, with a score of 38, obtained in 8 min. 58 secs., but in estimating the goodness of this score it must be remembered that when firing with Arm strong. no shot reckons except there which hit the target. Each hit counts twelve, so that the winners in this case must have hit the target three times out of five, firing at 1,5e0 and 2,000 yards alternately. The scores were pronounced to be excellent, and the facilit with which ; the amateur artillerists handled the guns—an diffe rent in every particular irgas the old-fashioned smooth-bore, elicited general commendation. Singularly enough, the winners were tied in score by the 4th detachment of the Mid-Lothian Court Artillery, and also by the 2nd Rent ; the supe riority being only in the time taken to load and fire. The time of the Mid-Lothian was Bmin. 8 seconds, and the 2nd Kent the same, so that three corps tied in score and two in time, an example of close which was rather re markable. We should ad firing d that even the lowest figures were deemed by the experts to be exceed ingly creditable, especially as the men were work ing for the first time with Armstrong guns. The contention for the Queen's Prize was to be followed by the running target competition for the badges of the association. The object of this shooting was to accustom the mon to firing at sea, and when in chase, and for this purpose a rope, 150 yards long, was attached to the target, and the whole was to be drawn along by a horse at the rate of seven miles an hour. A good deal of fun, as well as of in terest, was expected to arise out of the appli cation of this crucial test of volunteer efficiency. The shooting for the Lords and Commons' primes terminated late on Wednesday evening, the win ners being—first prize, Ist Sussex ; second, 12th Kent ; third, 3rd Essex ; fourth, 2nd Sussex. To-day wi ll be occupied first by the firing for the Consolation Prizes, and in the afternoon by the presentation of the prizes by Lady Spencer, and an address on the merits of the Association by the Earl of Longford. Saturday will be the " breaking up, and general resume of the labours of the week. NAVAL AND MILITARY. PORTSMOUTH, Arnow 6.
