He happened to be alone in the reception-room when a visitor came in whom, from the portraits, he recognised to be the gentle man concerning whom so much much anxiety was felt by the Irish police. ' Are you the cele brated Mr. Stephens!' he asked. ' Celebrated or not, lam Stephens,' was the reply. The business, which brought him to the college he stated was to find out some convent in which he could plsoe his wife and his sister-in- Ilaw during his absence in America. He stated that he was to leave for New York via Havre on Tuesday, that is a week since, and that he should return in three months. The Sacra COM' Convent, which is to the rear of the Irish College, was recommended to him as suitable for his pur pose, but it was added that it was expensive. 'I do not mind expense,' was Stephens's remark. The ladies have since, we believe, actually taken up their abode in the convent." ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.

OUR CONTEMPORARIES. (THIS DAY.) to commences war. They must know full well that war would mean nothing less than staking all they possess upon a remote and most uncertain issue, and that no ulti - mate gain could be proportioned to the certain and inevit able loss. These convictions we may well presume to be entertained ; but, in the meantime, there are the dangers of irritation, the chaneea of accident, and the passions of kings and people to be taken into account, sothat few would venture to forecast the result. Deeply, too, is the case complicated by the difficulty which must attend anything like arbitration. Who could profess to apportion between Austria and Prussia a piece of territory which Europe declared to belong to Denmark, and which Austria and Prussia them selves declared to belong to Germany We speak only in the broad and universal interests of peace itself, and can but repeat that, whatever may have been the dealings with these Danish duchies, it would be the extreme of folly and ' wickedness to consummate them by a continental war. The Post has reason to know that official reports made to bur own government are in absolute contradiction of the allegation that the exceptional armaments of Italy fore stal those of Austria. M. Ronher's statement the Post interprets to mean that if Italy commenced an attack, while France would insist on the observance of the Treaty of Villafranca and would secure Lombardy to Sardinia, if Austria were to vanquish Italy and restore Naples to Francis 11., the States of the Pope to the Church, and Tuscany, Modena, and Parma to their former dynasties, she would not spend French blood and treasure to avert disasters which the Italians would have brought upon 1000 11 1.1114 4 0 1 !-_ - 7yri.. 4 1 , - • .•;•-• • . . _ 'l 7 l;;ETeielifthinicsihai the cooperation of the great neutral Powers—France, England, and Russia—is not only the most likely means of extrication from this great di lemma, it affords us the only chance of escaping from an embroilment the disastrous consequences of which it would be impossible to exaggerate. United these great Powers would be strong, individually they are powerless. The advantages of a common action, which would cost them so little, are so great and so obvious that it seems almost superfluous to insist on them. The speeeh of IL Rouher yesterday seems to show that it may be the fault of France that the attempt is not ' made. The French government is at all events the first to avow that it has made, and will make, no earnest or decided effort to avert war in Europe. It is true it has hastened t) assure Italy that it is " thoroughly determined to throw upon herall the perils and risks of any attack she may make upon Austria." France is adding to her army, and massing her legions in the South, but it is not to help Italy , only to provide against eventualities. This army of the South is to protect " the power, security, and liberty of France." France will not helglltaly, but Italy "is un fettered in her resolutions," ard may seek for further aggrandisement in another alliance. To the alarming news that now reaches us from every side—Prussia and Austria Ifintnhaneously refusing to disarm; a puma war fever and a new loan in Italy—this manifesto of the French govern ment adds a fresh element of disquietude. In the interest of humanity the Telegropfi imagines that England, Russia, and France should intervene to prevent hostilities and try the effect of a Congress before an appeal is made to arms. England would enter such a conference absolutely unpledged and unfettered, except in so far as she may still be bound to the faith of treaties. In the cordial union of the three great neutral powers lies the best chance of peace ; and whether they agreed upon a own ' binod protest, or jointly summoned the other European states to a peaceful discussion, they would cast a terrible burden of responsibility upon the head of the aggressor. THE BUDGET. Detailing the features of the Budget, the Times expresses the opinion that in the case of the mileage duty, which Mr. Gladstone proposes to reduce from a penny to a farthing a mile, it is probable that the House of Commons, which hes greater common sense thanjany one of its mem bers, will decline to make three-fourths of • bite et a cherry, and will abolish the whole of the duty at once. With regard to the national debt, though it is a cause for congratulation that we have not followed the dismal examples held up by Mr. Gladstone last night of Conti nental nations who have recklessly increased their obliga tions in • time of profound peace—the Tiffief can only regret the small progress which the right hon. gentlemen promises us in the direction of a reduction of the sum. The grounds on which he appealed to the House of Com mons last night would have justified a call to much more strenuous exertions, and the practical measure suggested most appear on consideration very disproportionate to Mr. Gladstone's argument. What he proposes is, in truth, nothing more nor less than this : to set aside a sum some what less than half a million a year towards the reduction of the debt. This, in itself, must appear a very modest proposal, and, even if the result be. a diminution of the debt by 36 millions in 20 yeses, we cannot be very proud of it. It is, however, something to have a recognition me the fart of the Chasweltag, . the Kzehequ•r el} the duty of odnifiderini Our permanent burdens. We have gone on too long content to retain things as they were, contracting new debts whenever occasion arose, end content in times of proeperity to lessen the weight of taxa tion. There are limits within which this is perfectly justi fiable, when it is better to free the industry of the country from the trammels of impolitic taxes than to attempt to reduce the national debt. These limits are, howersr, now reached, and if the budget of 1866 has no other claim to attention it will deserve to be remembered as that in which the duty of the peeing generation to pos terity was first Insisted upon by a Chancellor of the Ex chequer. The observations of the Daily Ness upon Mr. Glad. stone's financial scheme will be found in our leading article columns. The Post forbears for the present to speak of the merits of Mr. Gladstone's method of reducing the natioual debt, and adds the remark that if the present budget does not effect those substantial remissions of taxation which specially characterised those of the past few years, it is not the less indicative of great national prosperity. The expenditure for the ensuing year too closely approximates to that of the year just brought to s close to permit of any considerable reduction of those taxes by which it must be met ; but the surplus which Mr. Gladstone, notwithstandl mg, finds at his disposal furnishes on that very account the most conclusive evidence of the healthy condition of the national finances. The distinctive feature of his financial policy has been that the actual loss entailed on the Ex chequer by the remission of taxation has never equalled that which was estimated, and s surplus has consequently invariably been created by the sheer elasticity of those sources from which the diminished revenues were supplied. The Herald says that an orator has seldom disappointed his audience more than Mr. Gladstone did the House of Commons het night, and it will wager, as to the question of the national debt, that not half-a-dozen members mi derstoodhis oomplicated scheme. The proposals themselves, however, neither disappoint nor dissatisfy the Herald. Everybody knew beforehand that he would not do justioe to the agricultural interest by a reduc tion of the malt duty or its conversion into a tax upon beer ; and if the particular remissions of taxation which he proposes were not urgently called for and are not likely to prove very beneficial, it would be rather hypercritical to make much complaint upon the subject, seeing that after providing for the particular losses occasioned by the Austrian Treaty, his new scheme for the reduction of the debt and the necessary margin, he had but two hundred thousand pounds to give away. As to the latter scheme how is it that Mr. Gladstone did not think of this matter before ! Mr. Jevons's statements are far from absolute novelties. What are we to think of a minister who having been Chancellor of the Exchequer now for seven years has only just discovered the importance of a systematic effort to reduce the debt! If the danger is as great as he tries to make out the mea sure is either quite needless and a wanton waste, or crimi nally inadequate. If Mr. Gladstone's premises are sound ; if it is the duty of this country to pay off the debt, and if she has only fifty years at the utmost left to pay it off in, he should propose not the application of a paltry sum of a million to the reduction of the debt, but some grand scheme by which fifteen or twenty millions should be every year appropriated to that purpose. Then he would be conse quent and consistent ; now he is simply absurd. The Advertiser thinks the policy of Mr. Gladstone in relation to the desirableness of reducing the national debt is eminently sound. No enlightened person can dissent from its expediency. The country will congratulate th e rlghthon.gentleman on having made a beginning in thetpro cess of reduction. Let us hope that Great Britain may be blessed with an Indefinite period of peace and prosperity, in order that he may be able to apply his financial prin ciples on a much larger scale than he is yet in a position to do. The financial statement of last night, the Telegraph re marks, is no exception amongst the budgets to which Mr. Gladstone has accustomed the nation. It presents the usual results of good management, and the commencement which it makes on the subject of the national debt may make it famous in distant years. History will not cavil with it for not glittering with such largesse, and swelling with such surplus, as some budgets of the past, but will mark it as beginning an era of reaction against the modern vice of public debt, and setting the just example of an effort to release our children from the burden of our reckless im providence. All the lesser proposals of the scheme, says the Star, are admirable, and though it is competent for every critic to pronounce Mr. Gladstone's proposal to begin paying off the natiosal debt by converting 24,000,0001. of savings bank ' deposits into terminable annuities a lame and impotent conclusion, it is only by tittles that so vast a work can be begun. Even to pay off forty millions of debt in eighteen years is more than was ever done before, except be tween 1800 and 1830, and under peculiar circumstances between 1840 and 1854. Besides, that which is now to be accomplished by means of the savings bank money may hereafter be carried farther by means of other national deposits; and, indeed, when once the reduction of our obligations is established as one of the highest and most sacred traditions of our national policy, the increment of reduction will, if the national prosperity is not suddenly arrested, be as remarkable as any of the many healthy symptoms which our national finance has of late years manifested. IfISCILLLANNOCS TOPICS. The Times thinks the commercial community have myth reason to be satisfied with the prospects opened to them by the new Bankruptcy Bill. It affords in almost all reelects a very advantageous contrast to its prede cessors. Instead of creating a number of new offices in the place of those which it abolishes, it leaves the cre ditors themselves, through the agency of the person whom they elect, to discharge the duties of official assignee and messenger. It throws upon the County Courts and the Lords Juatises of Appeal the new judicial work which it creates. It relieves the tri bunals to which it intrust' the working of the act from the burden of administering estates by their own agency, thus abolishing an infinity of expense and delay. Under this measure, if bankrupt estates be not well managed, the creditors will have nobody to blame but themselves. They are intrusted with their own property, and if they like to squander it in useless expenditure they have only themselves to thank. By removing one of the principal in ducements that can be held out to the giving undue credit, the bill does something towards the promo ' tion of public morality ; and many a wild and imprudent young man will probably owe to the abolition of imprison ment for debt his preservation from ruin, by the abrupt curtailment of that indiscriminate credit which has tempted so many onward to their destruction. This bill, should it become law, will at last accomplish what has been so long desired—the making the interest of the debtor identical, at least in some degree, with that of the creditor. The Telegrapa is inclined to believe the rumour that the bill for the redistribution of the franchise will transfer fifty seats from small boroughs to large constituencies— ! one-half of the number being given to towns, and one-half to counties. If we may trust the prevalent impression, total disfranchisement is not contemplated in any case ; but it is anticipated that vacancies will be created to the extent indicated by grouping places of minor importance together. ruder such circumstances, the country party would have I good reason to be satisfied with the bill of 1866. So far from aggrandising the urban power at the expense of the rural, it seems probable that the opposite course will be adopted. The plan would offer a net gain of fifty seats; and the 141. franchise will extend that proprietary in. fluence which the Chandos clause first created. _ The Times, after quoting the statement of the Irish Attorney-General last night respecting a case in which the aged Chief Justice Lefroy was unable to read the sentence of death on a condemned prisoner, adds that the tuns has come for some action in the matter. If the Chief Justice will not take the advice of those whose counsels, though more unpalatable than those of his intimate friends, are more wholesome, there will be nothing left but to resort to that extreme course which the constitution provides for the removal of an unsuitable judge. When the suggestion for Chief Justice Lefroy's retire ment is received with indignant remonstrance, the Star cannot help being reminded of the actress who vehemently protested against the tyranny of the manager in refusing to let her play " Little Pickle " any more although she had played it regularly for 60 years. " Travellers from Italy by Mont Cenia," says the Prase, " have remarked in passing by Cnloz that the carriages of a railway train were filled with French soldiers, going without doubt to reinforce the garrisons on the Italian frontier." CHANCES OP WAR 1 'R EPR ESENTATION OP WlNDSOR.—Yesterday the THE . Theo riginal dispute between the two German : streets of the royal borough began to exhibit symptoms wen, of the coming electoral girlie. The fronts of the White the Times observes, is complicated by the demonstrations Hart and Castle Hotels, in the High-street, were pro of Italy, which, though she could not be expected to begin fusely decorated with p lacards—the former, as the bead the war, would take advantage of it if it were begun. zi l arters of the oured bills conse with "Vote tive for ee Teol t ff sad Garda . ng et!

The show of English wheat here to-day was limited and in but middling condition. The few fine samples on offer were disposed of at Mondsy's currency ; but inferior kinds moved off heavily at late rates. With foreign wheat we were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, supplied. For the most part sales progressed slowly at about stationary prices. Floating cargoes of grain were inactive, but not cheaper. Only a moderate number was on offer. Ths few samples of English barley on sale met a slow inquiry, on former terms. Foreign qualities were much neglected, owing to the large Supply on sale. There was a fair demand for malt, at full quotations. The arrivals were moderately good. The inquiry for oats, both home and foreign, was steady, at late quotations. Beans commanded very little attention, on former terms. Peas were a dull inquiry, but not cheaper. The flour trade was quiet, at Monday's currency. Seeds and cakes were a slow sale, yet prices were supported. OATS. s. s -- . Scotch potato Irish, white . black BiANS.
