Ir may seem hard to an English statesman out of office that he cannot, like the rest of his fellow countrymen who happen to have leisure and other facilities of travel, make a tour on the continent of Europe with his family, without being suspected of some secret political mission from the Govenunent to which ho does not belong. Great mon no doubt pay the penalty of greatness ; they cannot enjoy the pleasures of obscu rity. The curiosity of continental chreniclera is insatiable, and the puspleien of Italians is not easily allayed. For example, Mr. OSIQ F.rnetl. was reported to be very busy making arrangements with the Pore for his resi dence at Malta, at the time when that amiable but discreet diplomatist was enjoying his annual leave of absence in England. Last year, indeed, there was perhaps some excuse for the extraordinary irritation of foreign, and especially Italian curiosity, with regard to the movements of English statesmen and diplomatists. No less than three ex-C.ibinet Ministers were staying in Horne at the same time. Of these Mr. GLAD :4ONT. was perhaps the most conspicuous mark for the inventive genius of correspondents. It was seriously rumoured at Florence that the Chan cellor of the Exchequer of the PALMERSTON and RUSSELL Cabinets was negotiating, with a view to his own political future at home, some sort of compromise injurious to the claims of Italy on the Roman question, in return for the support of the Ronum Catholic Church and party in Ireland. Such a transaction on the part of so distinguished a friend of Italy was spoken of with bitter regret by there who believed in it, and then was scarcely an Italian who had the simplicity to suppose that Mr. Gcaterrox .t could possibly go to Rome for the sake of change of scene and air after the exhaust ing labours of a parliamentary session ; or that on his release freti the cares of office he had sought for repose of mind and body amidst scenes and treasures the most refreshing to a richly club vatA scholar and lover of art. During his stay at Rome it was natural enough that an English statesman should pay his respects to the reigning Sovereign whose temporal ad ministration he had often severely criticised, but for whose spiritual office and character he could not but entertain respect. This interview, which was really an affair of a few minutes, and an exchange of the meet ordinary courtesies, was interpreted by the combined ingenuity of the Catholic and the Liberal press of Italy es a solemn recantation by Mr. GLADSTONE of his past errors, and a gracious admonition from the HOLT FATHER. It never occurred to these chroniclers that MT. GLADSTONE would be as little disposed to touch upon any political topic with the Pore as the Pope with him, and that English statesmen out of office were not in the habit of committing themselves or their country to a policy over which they had no control. So pertinacious and ao circumstantial were the reports, that Mr. GLADSTONE at length thought it necessary to contradict them. Lord CLARENDON, who also visited the Poe; and who was charmed with his reception, was, somehow or other, more indulgently treated by the chroniclers last winter. But Lord CLARENDON has had the temerity to go to Rome two winters following, and now it is his turn to be treated by all the European press as a sort of free companion of diplomacy, receiving confidences in Paris, charged with messages of conciliation and warning to Florence, and saying smooth things at the Vatican. We daresay no man is more innocent of all that is attributed to him as the secret envoy of the British Government than Lord CLARENDON him self. The British Government is not in the habit of superseding its official and accredited diplomatic representatives, or of doubling them by personal agents, as the Emperor NAPOLEON has sometimes done. The chiefs of the regular diplomatic ser vice of this country are supposed to be in posses sion of the entire confidence and authority of her MAJESTY. When a special mission is sent to any court or government it is avowed and recognised as such. Nor is there anything in the existing relations between England and France, or between England and Italy, that requires, or warrants, more than the usual reserve. But we need not affect to deny that of all our statesmen, in or out of office, Lord CLARENDON is the one whose faits et grates at this conjuncture are meet susceptible of ingenious mis representatiou. Although out of office and a Whig, he is, not very distantly, allied with the WHEN Dr. 3111.mAN was appointed Bishop of Cal cutta, a rumour was industriously circulated thathe was not only a High Churchman, but a Ritualist. If he carried out to India any tendency to go too far in that direction, a brief resijence in that country shoulti suffice to show him that nowhere would its indulgence be more detrimental to the interests of the Church of England. A Calcutta corre spondent, writing by the last mail, relates that a young chaplain at Fort William Church gave so" high" a character to the service there that it proved too much for the staunch Protestantism of the GOth Rifles, who denounced it as Romiah. Their mere opinion might have been deemed of little consequence ; but 100 of them straightway requested their commanding officer to set them down as Presbyterians, for the purpose of being marched in future to another place of worship. Ultra-ritualists will see in this practical protest only another form of what they are in the habit of styling the " aggrieved parishioner nui " sauce ;" but the Bishop will, no doubt, keep the zeal of his young friend within bounds, and, under his management, the 60th Rifles may yet prove good churchmen. But a warning has been given. The Presbyterian churches of Scotland are careful to send to India as chaplains and ministers men well able to keep together the congrega tions which they attract. It would be well for the Church of England at home if the practical condemnation of extreme ritualism always assumed a form as tangible as this. No doubt many a dis gusted churchman does openly go over to some non episcopal communion ; but in a majority of cases, where the alternative of a neighbouring church with a sober liturgical worship does not present itself, we suspect that the indisposition to make a second start in ecclesiastical life prevails ; a voice whispers that the ALMIGHTY is as much in one place as in another, and that the prayers and lessons can be read just as wall at home—which they are once or twice, until the habit of public worship is coin- Italy lest. The Post describes the late night fete of the Skating Club in Paris, and uks why something of the same kind cannot be done in London. It would be no slight relief, after being boxed up in offices, banks, and counting-house all day, to have a little healthful sport in the evening, instead of " cramping our knees and straining our eye-sight in those modern stooks,' the stalls of ill-built theatres ; and sitting bolt upright, choked by white handkerchiefs, and silent as mutes for four hours at a time." The Star censures the Working Men's Conservative Association for seeking to claim as a party right the honour of protesting attachment and pledging devotion to the Queen. Demongration against Fenianinn is to the Star's mind very like &demonstration that two and two make four. Lying is hateful, treason is hostile to the well-being of a state, murder is sanguinary, but one doe not engage Exeter Hall and invite Lord Mayors to assist at emphatic declarations of these universally acknowledged facts. The Telegraph says the statesman who shall secure for as the cordial alliance of the American nation would confer upon us, upon the United States, and upon humanity a greater boon than the appeasement of twenty European disputes or the arrangement of twenty European questions. The polities of Paris, of Vienna, of Constan nople, and of Rome—seats of empires and powers that have already begun to decay—are the mere ephemera of diplomacy, compared with the relations between us and our great cousins across the Atlantic. The Herald, commenting on Americanpolitks, says that the submission of the South was simply an accident, and that its own prophecies as to the result which would follow the war have been more than realised. The Times publishes to-day an address of French demo- crats, including M. Albert, formerly member vi the provi sional government, M. Greppo, Felix I'yat, and others, protesting against the execution of the three Fenian, at Manchester, who, they contend, were punished simply for insurrection against tyranny. In this document they my " the political scaffold in England in the 19th century is an anachronism and a folly. We ought to expect that the English government being the most practical would be the most wise—that a constitutional government being the strongest would be the most mild —that the government of a woman would be the most humane. Bat in the presence of these three victims we are forced to the conclusion that the protestant papacy and the catholic papacy are pretty natal on a par. There is the same intolerance, the same inhumanity—they differ as to government, but agree as to the hangman." THE first Report of the Clerkenwell Explosion Fund Relief Committee is a long document, and - - _ contains many interesting facts ; but we do not find in it that which Mr. DMsa►ani and the public have tritt (curt.

Up to the present time only 7,143/. have been sub scribed, a sum which neither duly expresses the spripathy of the public with the sufferers, nor is adequate to the relief of their necessities. We fear that precious time is being wasted. The money already subscribed will do little more than satisfy claims for immediate assistance, including the purchase of tools, working material, and furniture for those who have lost home and the means of earning • live lihood. There remain to be dealt with more than 150 cases of personal injury, for all of which some compensation ought to be given, while for many a life provision more or less complete will have to be made. The proportion of female suf ferers is unusually large, and all of them were de pendent on their own exertions for a living : four of these have lost eyes ; others have been maimed or terribly shaken, and will never again be what they were. The revolting barbarity of the outrage comes out in strong colours in the Report of Mrs. BATLEY, who has given her attention to the mater nity cases, and who reports no fewer than twenty six instances in which injury has been done to mothers and their infants. We trust that the sub scription list will be raised to an amount equal to the exigencies of the case before some new catas trophe comes to divide public attention with the consequences of the Clerkenwell explosion.

In the Corps Legislatif yesterday a bill was voted, after a slight discussion, granting the trivial sum of three millions of francs (120,0001.) for public works and the relief of necessitous people at this period of distress. The apology made for the meagre pittance, ridiculously inadequate to the purpose, was that the Corps Legislatif, before granting a larger sum, should have an opportunity of satisfying themselves how this had been laid out. That was en extremely plausible and delicate reason : but M. Glais Biroin, not satisfied with it, said he would very much like to know what proportion' of the three millions was to be employed in public works and how much in charity. He mentioned an instance in which money had been voted to relieve sufferers from fire, and after a long delay poor people had lost a day's work and taken a long journey to get not more than ten sons or one franc. He grievously suspected that this bill was a pretext for giving some of the pre fects funds to keep corrupt promises which they had made to carry elections. M. Glais Biroin, though he repeated his question, got no answer to it. A Toulon letter, dated Jan. 3, in the Message ,. du Midi, says : The Stlolllll of the French troops in the Pontifical States being indefinitely prolonged, orders have been given to .sad oat 500 tons of 'materiel to Civita Veechia. The seam frigates Orenoque, Commander Pi, and Meador, Oenimander Assn, have been told oft for this sersias. The Temps mays of the elections in the Somme and Indre-et-Loire, the importance of which I called your attention to yesterday : The double election in districts which the government had every reason to suppose itself ware of has a signin canoe that nobody can mistake. It conveys evidently a oensare on the general policy of the government, but more partisalarly • protest against the army bill now awaiting a final vote. I should have mentioned that both the successful candidates, MM. Houssard and d'Eatournel, ex pressed uncompromising hostility to the army bill in their electoral addrassea. Last night was fully as cold as any we have yet had in this exceptionally severe winter. Cheva lier's thermometer went down to 10 degrees, and upwards. To-day, as in the day time yesterday, we have had but about S degrees ; there are, however, no signs of a thaw. Several of the mails are behindbAnd. M. doe Rotours, the deputy, whose death I mentioned yesterday, was mined by the intones °old while walking home from the Corps teals- WU and rapidly carried off by a pleurisy. He was only 81 pen of age and was supposed to be in robust health.

The following report and balance-sheet were submitted " The directors now submit to the proprietors the state ment of the debts and *ants of the corporation required by the charter, made up to June 30, 1467, which also exhibits the net pro fi t realised during the half-year ending at thy date : " Debts : —Circulation, ,286 7551.

Kitts in July last, and of the hurricane and earthquakes which have recently visited St. Thomas. Whilst they deeply deplore the suf. , faring* and loss of life experienced by individual., ' they consider it a reason for much thankfulness that of the bank's numerous branches, those situated in the above-named islands have alone felt any effects of the calamities alluded to. In St. Kitts the bank hove was destroyed, but fortunately the molt or deco' room resisted the fire, and consequently all the cash, securities, end books, were saved. As the house a-, insured there will be little or no loss on that account. Ile the kindness of the governor and authorities, the back has , been allowed the use of a portion of the government lenti lugs until the bank house is rebuilt, by which timely ac commodation the business was resumed in a few day% and it has since continued very nearly as null. It is satisfac tory to add that the manager of the branch reports that no serious lose need be apprehended. In St. Thomas, the bank house, which is not the property of the comer-tins, has been so much injured by the earthquakes that the manager has felt it necessary to remove to en adjacent wooden building. He reports that the cash, securities, and books are safe, and that as far as he can at present judge, the hank is not likely to sustain any leas of utoment. set. withstanding this, however, the directors consider it will be prudent to carry over to next half-year the whole of the undivided profit towards providing for contingeteics which may possibly arise from these lamentable occur rences. They therefore propose to appropriate the net profit declared above in the following manner, viz. Amount of net profit, after providing for all bad and doubtful debts and income-tax, 36,0521.

The directors are glad to rett at the tritest dates in their possession the busi an ness of branches was proceeding sitisfactorily." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the repot-, said he thought the result was on the whole satisfactory, the previous dividend being declared and a larqc amount carried forward. As regarded the position cf bank generally, it was not unsatisfactory. The pronects of the year were not unfavourable., The ernes were I and there was reason to hope that the next report wall be a favourable one. Mr. Grittier Homo., a director, emended the metior. A SHAREHOLDER could not understand why the low s referred to by the chairman were not provided for out cf the reserve fund. When such a course was purse ed,l.: could see no use in having a reserve fund. (Hear, hear.) Hr. G. HOARE defended the policy of the board as tending to the permanent stability of the bank and to all , maintenance of the dividend of 12 per cent. Mr. Low WHEELER Ra an old proprietor fully il?prO' .1 of the reservation made by the directore. After some further discussion, The report was adopted, and a dividend of 6 per cent. for the half year declared payable on the rith in4t. The vacancies in the direction were then filled up, ar.l the proceedings terminated in the usual manner.
