J. M. Nsaza, M.A., Warden of Sack " vine College, East Grinstead." The work has been for twenty years before the public, yet it would be too much to assume that any consider able proportion of our readers are familiar even with its name. It is, however, by no means dead. It has enjoyed during that time such life LS the fostering care of the National Society and the sanction of the Committee of Council on Educa tion have been able to give it. It has circulated among clergymen of " high " views, among national schoolmasters, pupil teachers, perhaps also parish clerks and other persons of semi-ecclesiastical posi tion and ultra-ecclesiastical pretensions. It has been for nearly a quarter of a century the chosen mental food of thousands and tens of thousands of children ; thesource whence, under the cognizance of the Government, they have drawn their first impressions of the history of their country, its constitution and traditions, and their own duties and obligations as subjects and citizens. It has directed their admiration and reverence, or their disapproval and contempt, to the great cha racters who form the glory or the shame of England. Viewed in this light, it possesses an importance other than that intrinsically belonging to it. If FLETCHER of Saltoun lived now, he would hold that to write the school books of a nation was a more vital thing than to make its ballads. The Rev. d. M. NEALE has applied himself to both tasks. His name and works are not, perhaps, current in the mouths of mere men of letters or of the world, but they occupy half a column of " Crockford'a " Clerical Directory." From that invaluable hand-book to fame we learn that Mr. J. M. NEALE is the author, besides a score or two of miscel laneous trifles, of " Mediaeval Hymns," " Lays " and Legends of the English Church," and other poetic works. He is at once the laureate and the historiographer, the schoolmaster and bard, of the extreme sacerdotal party in the Church of Eng land. Nearly a quarter of a century ago the Ediaturylt Review stepped aside from a graver controversy with more considerable men to bestow a moment's notice on these sacred effusions. "In " the ' Ballads' of such men as Mr. NEALE, a " Pindar worthy of Tmetarianism, we find (it said) " a bigotry of which contempt itself could say " nothing more bitter than that it is in perfect " harmony with the doggerel which embodies it." The article, with its extracts, which we quoted yesterday from the Pall Mall Gazette, will pro bably lead our readers to the conclusion that Mr. Nam.s the historian is in every way worthy of Mr. NasLE the poet. It would be absurd to spend argument or re monstrances on Mr. NEALE. There is, perhaps, no historical absurdity which some one may not honestly believe. If Mr. NEALE wrote for full grown men, and supported his conclusions by arguments laid bare to criticism, he would take his place in the harmless ranks of paradox mongers. He would be refuted and forgotten, and there would be an end of him ; but when, writing for children who are absolutely at the mercy of his candour, he places before them asser tions the most doubtful as universally-admitted facts, when he blasphemes great reputations and throws contempt on principles cherished by nearly all Englishmen, he earns a different treatment. The Warden of Sackville College, East Grinstead, teaches that " all authority " in civil matters conies directly from the " QUEEN, and through her from GOD." If Mr. NEALE is really aware of the parliamentary tenure by which the QUEEN herself holds her throne, ho is not only falsifying history in this monstrous teaching, but preaching disloyalty to the constitution of which the monarchy forms but a part. The fanaticism which rejoices in the early death of -Prince HENRY, the eldest son of King J Ansa 1., "because he was a Puri " tan at heart," differs nothing in spirit from the temper which sharpened the daggers of CLEMENT and RAVAILLAC. It is neither more nor lees than retrospective assassination. When Mr. NEALE finds in the author of " Para " disc Lost " a proof that GOD does not always bestow his choicest gifts on good men, since MILTON wrote in defence of the murder Of CHARLES the Mama, we can only pity the insensibility to moral and intellectual great ness which the judgment evinces. All this is Mr. NEALE'S loss. The bigotry which can see nothing excellent or admirable in the Puritan and Repub lican poet, must equally fail to admire what is truly deserving of regard in the Anglicans Jaunty Tavioa and Kay, or the Catholics PASCAL, FENELON, and MABSILLON. In one case the re pulsion, in the other the attraction, of sectarian and party feeling is operated on ; and this is all. One of the newspaper organs of the Church party to which Mr. NEAL► belongs lately denied in rude terms the claims of CRAMMER, LATIMER, and RID LEY to the crown of martyrdom. Certainly they did not belong to any holy company of which CHARLES I. MIS a member. But CHARLES the MARTYR has vanished from the Book of Common Prayer. How is it he manages to retain his place in Mr. Nrazz's devout comme moration 1 It is refreshing to turn from these Ir is a disputed point where a parent's rights over his child begin and end. It is with reference to education that the question is oftenest raised. Some persons think that a father who chooses to bring up his child in utter ignorance should be permitted to do so ; while others maintain that the interest society has in the youngest of its members entitles it to inter fere and take means to have the child educated. When the question is one of physical neglect or cruelty, we see our way more clearly. We un hesitatingly punish a man for starving, or exces sively beating his child. Sometimes we get a more complicated case, where a well-meaning father kills his child by his own presumptuous folly, and then we are in doubt again. Of this kind seems to be the Bethnal-green case, brought under the notice of Mr. RICKARDS, the Coroner, on Satur day. A shoemaker had a boy, two years of age, who fell ill of inflammation of the lungs. The man would not call in a doctor ; he had by him a " Family Medical Adviser," and would " treat " the child himself. He seems to have imagined that the child had the measles, and administered medicines accordingly. The mother deposed : "On Tuesday the child screamed violently. Its " cries were frightful—l could not bear to listen " to them, and while the child was dying I ran " from the room." The father's confidence in his own wisdom sustained him in these trying circum stances, and he persisted in refusing medical aid, which probably would have been by that time of no avail. It is well to be assured by his wife that he idolised the child. The jury, while severely blaming the foolish fellow in their verdict, did not recognise any criminality in his conduct. The parental character was appa rently made to cover an act which certainly would have placed an unqualified person practising medi cine for gain in great peril. Before the court the man justified himself, as he imagined, by alleging the directions of the book. " I cannot criminate " myself, for I acted according to the book. I " put it in evidence. I did everything that the " book told me to do." The fact being that whatever the book might tell him about measles it could tell him nothing about his child and what was good for it. The father's good faith saved him, but it is not universally safe to rely on good intentions when doing that which may lead to loss of life. The Pope, although be abstained from visiting the church of San Carlo * in state on Monday morning, did not remain in the seclusion of the Vatican in the afternoon, but drove about the city, encounter ing several ambulance waggons, and other vehicles conveying wounded soldiers and Garibaldians to the various hospitals, which bad to pull up and wait until the tort,:ge and escort of his Holiness passed by. It is difficult to speculate on the senti ments with which the poor sufferers of both parties must have contemplated the rich equipage of the Supreme Pontiff. At noon yesterday the new Spanish ambassador, Don Alexander de Castro, had an audience of his Holi ness, and presented his credentials. I saw him on his return, with all his diplomatic staff in Ash uniforms, occupying three state carriages, passing the Piazza Borghese precisely when eight or nine ambulance waggons and omnibuses full of wounded com batants were proceeding towards Santo Spirit*. The diplomatists looked out of their carriage windows rather startled at such • sanguinary spectacle in the capital of Christianity. Observing that Gar i baldi was defeated, as the world can now see, by French troops armed with the deadly Chasse pot rifle, the Daily Noes says no one can deny the badly armed and badly fed youths who followed Garibaldi the praise of valour. They beat the Pontifical troops until the latter were joined by the French, and then for several hours made head against the first soldiers in the world, armed with the most effective weapon which modern science has produced. Their reputation is henceforth safe. If the Italians are wise they will now leave the French go. vemmcnt no alternative between actually garrisoning the Roman territory or renouncing all pretensions to throw troop. into Italy at wilL The Herald and Standard treat the conservative dinner at the Crystal Palace yesterday as a significant demonstra tion of working class opinion. The Herald is delighted that most of the men who were present were " fresh from the workshop and rough-handed with toil." Who now, it uks, an venture to deny the existence of the conservative working man' The Standard adds that the conference of delegates which is to be opened to-day at Freemasons Hall will give a permanent force to the alliance symbolised in yesterday's dinner. The Telegraph, however, takes quite a different view of yesterday's celebration, and declares that the working man, whose hard daily work and anxious life ia an urgent problem, had no more to do with the dinner than the walrus at the Zoological Gardens hod with " the Revolutionary Epick." (1/11711101 TELEGRA3I4.) FRANCE AND ITALY. PARIS. Nov. 12. The Moniteur publishes the following : " The government of the Emperor has learnt with the most lively satisfaction the spontaneous resolution by which the royal troops were recalled to Italian territory. By a special despatch our repre sentative in Italy is instructed to express to the cabinet of Florence how fully our govern ment appreciates the sentiment of concilia tion and the soundness of the views which have dictated this determination. The pa triotic efforts of the Italian government to re establish order and security throughout the Peninsula, and its respect for treaties, inspire the French government with the greatest confidence, and give it the conviction that the friendly rela tions between France and Italy will continue to be strengthened and developed. The Emperor has decided that the French expeditionary corps shall evacuate Rome and the other towns of the Pon tifical States which it now occupies as soon as order shall have been assured there. The French troops will gradually concentrate upon Civita Veochia." CABINET COUNClL.—Summonses were issued yes terday afternoon for a Cabinet Council this after noon at the Earl of Derby's private residence in St. James's-square. The Geographical Club held their first dinner this season yesterday evening, at Willis's Rooms, King street, St. James's. A large party assembled. Sir Roderick Murchison, the president, took the chair ; and among the party were—the Portuguese Minister, Sir Bartle Frere, E.C.8., Earl of Sheffield, Lord Houghton, Count Strzelecki, Sir A. S. Waugh, Sir Thomas Fremantle, Sir IL Rawlinson, M.P., Colonel Sykes, M.P., Admiral Sir William Hall, Major-General Balfour, Captain Forbes, Colonel Shadwell Sir Erskine Perry, Captain W. P.

The year 1866 was one of unexampled liberality to American colleges. It appears that during the year 131 American colleges .received gifts in money to the amount of 3,041,000 dollars, besides large grants of the public lands made by Congress during that year to insti tutions of learning having agricultural departments. Cornell University, in New York, received 760,000 dol lars ; Harvard University, near Boston, 400,000 dollies ; Tufts' College, Massachusetts, 360,000 dollars; Yale College, at New Haven, 206,000 dollars ; Baldwin Uni. versity, in Ohio, 103,000 dollars; Dickinson College, Pennsylvania, 100,000 dollars ; Chicago University, 100,0 t 0 dollars; WashingtAr Universty of St. Louis, Missouri, 100,000 do lire, sad others reoe:vrd smaller amounts. Letters from the Pennsylvania oil region state that under a recent improvement in prices the business of producing oil is remunerative. tinder thin impetus sells that had been abandoned are now worked to advantage. New wells are also being bored, snd on the whole the business is said to look better than it has done for a twelve. month. An immense number of huge iron tanks bare been erected near the wells, and there is now tankage ca pacity sufficient to store several months' supply. The pro ducers intend, if pukes again fall below a paying figure, to store their oil in these tacks until the diminished supply on the market causes a reaction. The manufacturers of the United States, who are anxious to procure legislation that will remove the cause that at present depress their trade, have called a " Na tional Manufacturers Convention," to meet at Cleveland, Ohio, on December 18.
