LONDON, SATURDAY, AVOUST 14, 1894. :reland The good effect of the system under which Ii is at prrsent governed, becomes every day more manifest. Loan WILLI/LEY perceived, from the commencement, the evils with which it had been for ages afflicted, and he saw that there was no mAlual for remedying those evils, but by removing the causes which led to them. To do this of must be a work of time. Violent and sudden reformstions are never lastirg ; something must be yieLled to habit, nrd something must be conceded to Trtjudice. The condition of Ireland required that a more equal distribution should be made of the offices and distlnctions of the civil government. It was most desir able that whatever change for the better was made, should le so made that the evils of the old distribution should revs be able to return. This has been done, and done in a Insurer that will redound to the lasting honour of Lord Wellesley's administration in Ireland. We are strenuous advocates for the Church Establishment : and, therefore it is, that we never wish to see that preponderance of power whidt it ought always to possess, exercised in the spirit of intolerance towards any class of Christians, whatever may be the conscientious peuliarities of their religious opi nion. It is high time a. e had got rid of all enmity and slissention on the score of orthrulory. Evangelical cha rity • knows no distinction between men who, be their r"ccd what it tray, keep their conscicace void of offt nee. The salutary arrangements which have been rec.ntly made towards extending to the Catholic body those po- Mica' benefits. from which they hare brt•nso long anti so oppreesively excluded, is hourly giving peace to the popttla- Curl. and introducing that confidence in the Government which best insures its prosperity. Much, however, re mains to be done by the Irish themselves towards putting the emnforts of life within the fair reach of labour and industry. Before any vital good can be done—that is, before any positive, permanent amelioration in the Irish peasantry can i.e effected, the condition of the higher ranks must be improved ;—we do not mean improved in wealth, or in ' outward circumstances, but in liberality of mind, in justness of thinking, in genuine patriotism, and in that frame of mind which brings a man to the con viction, that he is horn for the good of his fellow men. and to remote —as far as his means reach—the comfort and happiness of mankind. We may depend upon it, were this conviction universal, both Church and ST AT§ would rest upon a rock. To snake converts from this to that sys:tan of faith—from Catholic to Protestant, or from Protestant to Catholic—is not the business of religion. It is a zeal with which practical Christianity bas no concern. The only corn. worth making, is a concert from vice to virtue—from dishonesty to fair-dealing—from corrupt and immoral habits to purity of conduct and uprightness of life—this is the only courerciun which CiIItISTIANITy seeks to snake in the heart of man, and which it is well calculated to make, when taught with a view to its real purposes, and is most desirable end. It was iu this spirit thzt the great Founder of our Religion taught it, and it is in the spirit of this example that it must be taught. When the Legislature interferes with the religious opinions of any man or body of men, it ex ercises its power in the spirit of persecution. As long as ant data of M.:enters from the Established Church, whether Catholics or any other desetiption, conduct them selves as loyal and fhitkrel subjects, to subject flit m to any civil disabilities is the height of injustice. This assurance is, we think, gaining ground in Ireland. Men arc taught wisdom by the progress of events, and we rejoice to per ceive a better understanding growing up between the Pro testant and Catholic population. The conciliatory system which has been acted on by the MARovis Vet I.ESI tv has contributed to foster this mutual good feeling. It has done this by softening down the evils agiinst which the great majority of the Irish nation bad to strivgle, and by adopting a steady course of policy, which tends every day, more or less, to relieve the many from the imperious domination of the fly. The advice' received yesterday from Jamaica are more satisfactory than the previous accounts would have war ranted us in expecting. The conspiracy among the negrocs was, it appears, almost exclusively confined to some estates in the parish of Hanover. 'The runaways have been taken or compelled to surrender; and when the latest ineelligence left the island only twelve or fourteen negroes were in the woods. On the other estates the slaves appear to have acted with fidelity, and some were employed to pursue the muti neers. We are gratified to learn that none of the white inhabitants have been injured, and but a few negroes have lost their lives. The promptitude and activity of the military contributed essentially to this happy result, which was considered so securely accomplished, that the militia would, for the most part, be allowed to return home in a day or two. According to some reports, the plot was very wis'e ly spread, and only prevented from bursting forth en every I side by its early detection. We are disposed to look upon these statements as the natural consequences of the state of alarm in which the Colonists have been living. Every danger is readily magnified by our fears ; and it is manifest, though this conspiracy has been thus timely crushes!, that it had a very formidable appearance at first, and that one reverse sustained by the planters might have led to the most calamitous results. One feature of this insurrection is too well calculated to justify the alarm which has been felt ; we allude to the savage desperation of the negroes in their attempts to commit suicide after their apprehension. Such men arc not ordinary rebels : they are evidently un der the influence of some enthusiasm, which has oeerconse even the instinctive love of life. They are not driven to rebellion by the pressure of some new and intolerable grievance, or by the apprehended imposition of additional restrictions or severities. It appears that one of the ring leaden, who died by his own hands, cods:seed that the in surgents had been " always treated with the greatest kind ness and indulgence :" yet they had deliberately planned the murder of two of the proprietors (Mr. Malcolm and Mr. Campbell), who had taken the most pains in forward ing every measure for the improvement of the condition of their slaves. The ringleader himself admitted, that he " had no fault to find" with those gentlemen. how then was ho instigated to enter into a plot to imbrue his hands in their blood? " Because," says the dying and deluded criminal, " see acre certain that the ling and Will& rlbree and his party had made us free, and our masters, from their great influence in the parish, withheld nut freedom from us." After this, we trust that no further supply of the materials of mischief will be made from this country. I t will be a matter of excessive difficulty, under the most fa vourable circumstances, to save the colonies from the ebul litions of a spirit like that new prompting the negroes to insurrection. If, however, there are men to be found who would, on any pretext of benefiting the negroes, expose the white population to the hazard of ruin and massacre, we ' are convinced that the feelings of our countrymen gene- I rally have nothing in common with them. No humanity can be more spurious than that which overlooks those most entitled to our benevolence, in order to travel in search of objects who have no claim upon our affections. The discussion of the case of Smith and Starkie , in the I Vice-chancellor's Court on Thursday, before I.ord Gifford, was rendered generally interesting by the considerations it involved with respect to the delays permitted by the prac tice of the Court of Chancery. The facts of the case were these:—ln 1819 a person named Smith died, leaving a considerable property to be divided among eighteen lc gates's, his relations, all persons in humble life. In Easter Term, 1815, an amicable suit, as it is called, was in- i stituted in Chancery. Five years afterwards, viz. in I IMarch, IFC.ns, the ease was heard before the Vice , Chancellor. In January, 1927, the Master, to whom the proceedings were referred, reported to the Court. In March, 1e23, the ease was set down for further directions, but at the close of the month following the surviving plaintiff died, and the suit abated. His Solicitor, in whose hands the ease had then lingered for eight years, filed a bill of reviver. Some of the parties to the suit, how ever, were dissatisfied with his conduct, and they gave him notice that they should dispense with Isis services in that rapacity. The Solicitor was not disposed to relinquish Isis bold so easily. Ile proceeded to put in an appearance for the parties who dismissed him, and prepare the briefs for the next hearing, which, in the fuluess of time, be might obtain for the litigants. The parties in question could not understand either the reason or the equity of the sovereign contempt with which he had treated their discontinuence of his agency, and they therefore applied to the Court to have the appearance, entered in their names, discharged. Mr. Heald, in stating their case, animad 'and with just indignation on the shocking abuses result , ing from the delay to which the parties in this suit had been subjected, and observed, with conclusive force, in sit ticipation of the arguments on the opposite side, that no proposition could be snore monstrous or absurd, than that "a solicitor once employed was, right or wrong, to be con- Itinued to the end of a cause, unless he was dismissed by a rule of Court." Mr. Hart, in defence of the solicitor, took occasion to complain of what he called " Mr. Heald's ad dress to popular opinion relative to the delays charged on the Court of Chancery : he (Mr. Hart) thought it might' as well have been spared. Those who beard it to-day would, when they went abroad, report it, and the po pular clamour would be increased, while those who looked into the interior of the system of the Court of Chancery must know, that no human system could be devised better calculated to promote the ends of justice." The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to justify his ' client from all imputations of impropriety in the per- Ifonnance of his duty towards the parties to the suit, and concluded with a sarcastic observation, that " this was not the season of the year to indulge in long sad violent Ispeeches7 The reply of Mr. Heald was eloquent, intrepid; and forcible. It carries conviction in every line; and it reflects great honour upon him, that in support of his client's interests, and in the discharge of an important public duty, be put at defiance all the feelings of hostility which he knew he should excite against him, from what ever quarter they might proceed. His high standing and great talents will protect him against the consequences of that wrath which few could withstand, and none, we be lieve, would needlessly incur; and the public owe him a deep and lasting debt of gratitude, for his fearless tlenuncia tions of the abuses of the Court in which he practises. We suldoin from our report of yestenlay, for they are worth repeating, the observations to which we allude : "Mr. Heald, in reply, observed, that the season of the year, or the day—being near the long vacation.—should have no weight whatever in a case of so much importance as the present. M ith respect to Mr. Hart's observations, about addresses to popular opinions, he (Mr. Ileahl) would say. it would be disgraceful hi a Barrister not to urge those topics which might suggest themselves to him, in any ems-, much more so on the present motion, than which, perhaps aat one of greater importance ever came before a Court. • • tt • Ile stated nothing out of his affidavits; though I Mr. Hart and Mr. Moore had both stated the circumstances of his ( Mr. Ile:throe' lents, anti had added matter which in no wise related to the case pew le fore the Court. His clients were priax and weak, and these were the strongest moons why it was the duty of this Court to interfere for their protection. He (Mr. Heald) did not mean to say that this cause could have been more advanced than it was—that greater expedition could have been used in its manage ment ; neither did he say that it was as if moved arms the Court in a sledge drawn by a worm. lint this he said—thst if the solicitor could not go as more quickly, was it not a shame that such a Court as this should be allowed to exist a moment longer? The complaints were loud and heavy, and deep-rooted against this Court ; hut it was said they could not be made against the Judges or the prat.? i: inners of the Court. or the system upon which the Court itself was canducted ; and, in fact, no one knew against whom to prefer their complaints. • • • • What will this country as, —this country so favoured above all others—what will her industri ous people say, when they are told that a laborious man may amass a fortune and bequeath it to his relations, but that they, like him self, may die off before his will can be carried into effect, owing to the perfect system of this Court ?" • • • • WINDSOR, Avo v sr 13. Yesterday his Majesty, after laying the first stone of the new entrance, in addition to ordering all the workmen half-a-crown each, ordered them also to be regaled with beer. The alterations are going on very fast in the Castle. All the chirnnics in those apartments under repair are tat - ing down. The atones used in the improvements making are Bath stones, and a number:4lf workmen, under the superintend ence of Mr. Noel, a stoomaaaon, have arrived from B h for the purpose of working them. The Princess Augusta, attended by the Dowager Conn tess of Harcourt, went from Frogroore on Monday last, on r a visit to the Duchess of Gloucester. Soon after S o'clock this morning, the third Reritnent of Foot Guards left the foot barracks for the 'rower, and soon after six o'clock a party of the first regiment of Foot Guards arrived to do duty hire, and another party this afternoon. It is whispered in the fashionable circles, that a tour on the Continent is contemplated by his Majesty in the course of the approaching autumn. Yesterday was the birth-day of the Duchess of Clarence, when her Royal Highness completed her 321 year. Yesterday Mr. Sec; etuy tanning transacted business at the Fore i gn Office. Thursday evening a King's Messenger was sent off from the Foreign Office with despatches for Madrid. Despatches were yesterday received at the Colonial Office, from Demerara, dated the 45th of June, at which period everything continued tranquil. Private letters to the 21 of July bring the same intelligence. The Earl of Glengal, who has been long ill, is now tepidly re covering frem the effects of the same disorder which afflicted the Marquis of Hertford, namely, the measles. The Archbishop of Dublin, it is confidently expected, will be able, on Sunday next, to attend a Confirmation in St. Andrew's Church.—Duidis Paper. We have the satisfaction to report the favourable change in the health of the Vice-Chancellor. Sir John yesterday underwent a very painful operation, performed by Mr. Brodie, in the presence of Mr. Cline and Mr. Heaviside. The process lasted a whole hour, from one to two o'clock, during which the patient suffered much. The New York, in which the Hon. Mr. Stanley, Mr. Wortley, jun. and Mr. Denison, jun. sailed for New York, was spoken on the ISth ult., in lat. 40. long. 72, all well, by the Canada, which left New York on the 16th ult., and arrived at Liverpool on Monday. Commissioner Boyle, of the Navy Board, arrived here last week, and, with Sir T. B. Mart!n and Sir K. &Impinge, were daily occupied until yesterday, when they left, with official business. We understand that the Navy Board have resolved on the formation of a new dock in time upper part of the yard, above the dock in which the Impregnable now lay s ; and it is generally understood that time whole of North Corner-street, &c. all the way on to the Gunwharf, is about to be taken into the Dock-yard, and a new wet dock formed en the site of the present North Corner quay. — Plymouth .Journal. Nit:.;ENTATIqN or DUBLIN—We learn from various quarters that there are strong symptoms of an approaching Election. For the present we shall confine ow s.lves to Dublin. Sir Henry Torrens, though invited by the Cor poration, has declined the honour. Mr. Henry Grattan certainly will stand. The Courier thinks it probable that Mr. Saurin will offer himself to the Electors of Dublin ; or, in the event of his declining, that Alderman King will step upon the hustings. In any event, it is certain that the City will not be carried without a contest.—Dublin Freeman's Journal. The interior of Widmer Castle has been greatly improved since Lord Liverpool became Governor of the Cinque Ports. Mr. Pitt was utterly regardless of either external or internal ornament, beyond their utility. We remember visiting the Castle whilst Mr. Pitt was there, when we saw the haughty Premier digging in the garden, and on being ahewn the interior, the cloth was laid for his dinner at a side-table, with the simple appendages of a !:nife and fork, and a wo oden salt-cellar.-2lfeening Paper. An affair of honour took place on the Race-ground at Lincoln, on Monday evening, between Col. S—, at tended by F. C.—, Esq. and Dr. C—, with Cept. W— as his friend. ihe principals exchanged shots without of when a mutual reconciliation took place, highly to the credit of both parties, and they left the ground. The misunderstanding originated at a public meet ing on the Saturday preceding. Mr. Rayner is at present performing his round of characters in the City of York. Ile has appeared in Tyke and Giles with a degree of eclat scarcely inferior to his re ception in London. The Rev. Charles Caleb Colton, the celebrated author o !,aeon, whose mysterious disappearance excited such gene-f ral attention a short time since, is now in town, residing in Prince's-street, Soho. The Maniteur of Tuesday contains a royal ordinance, respecting which we only wish that it had taken a wider range. By this decree it is declared, that in future the tides of Baron, Viscount. Count, Marquis, and Puke, which time King of France may bestow upon any of his subjects, shall be personal, and not descend to the it chil dren, " unless the possessors cf such titles shall have been authorised by his Majesty to coustitute, and shall have I constituted, a majorat attached to the title with which they ! shall be invested. The value of the estates must be, for the title of Duke, 9 0,000 francs per annum clear ; for a Marquis, 20,000 anes ; and for a Viscount and Baron, 10,000 francs." It is positively declared that none of the money which was remitted to Zante on account of the Greek Loan has been paid over to Prince Marrocrodato; and that Mr. Hamilton Brown, the friend of Lord Byron, who is a gentleman every way equal to the mission, will proceed almost immediately to the Ilona, for the purpose of deciding, from his own i observation, the course proper to be adopted. Col. Gordon' does not go out until December, before which time it is ex- 1 pected that the Greek Government will b_ organised with much vigour. A private letter, of a recent date, from Zantc, states that Colocotroni, Pietro Bey, and other se- ceders, are all animated with good-will, to the cause but that they have remonstrated with Prince Mavrocord;to on his want of energy. THE Geouna.—About five o'clock yesterday morning the Ist battalion of the Coldstream Guards disembarked from the boats at Paddington, to which place they had come by the canal from Liverpool, after having acne duty the last twelve months et Dublin. Yesterday morning time ea battalion of the 3d regiment of Guards arrived at the Tower, from Windsor, to relieve the 2el battalion of the Coldstream, who marched into the King's Mews barracks, to relieve the Sd battalion of the Grenadier Guarda, who marched to Windsor ; and on Thursday the 2tl battalion of the Grenadiers marched from Knightsbridge hatacks, to relieve the lit battalion of Grenadiers, who are gone into Westminster quarters.

We take the following from the Patri,.t of last night : " Yesterday her Grace the I)owsger Duchess of Rich mond arrived at Morrison's Hotel, Dawson -street, accom panied by Ladies Susan and Sophia Lennox. Several I distinguished persons have since waited on her. This day ;the joy bells were in motion, to testify the respect which this amiable lady is held in by the citizens of Dublin. A I post assembly has been called, for the purpose of prepating a congratulatory address to her Grace. ' The Duchess has very wisely declined the address al luded to in this paragraph. bier Grace stated that she was duly sensible of the kindness of the intention, but that she I preferred being pannitted to prosecute her tour without re ceiving any public marks of attention. Nothing could be ! more prudent than this. The projectors of the address I merely wished to revive party feelings and associations I which it is no longer the fashion " at Court'.' to cherish ; and the Duchess of Richmond, who is as sensible as she' I is amiable, justly considered that it would be bringing no I increase to her consequence at the other side of the Chan nel, to be held out as the herald of discord at this side. Her Grace, we are glad to hear, is in excellent health.— DL.blin Freeman's Journal of Wednesday. MARRIAGE VOW The matrimonial ceremony, like many others, has nn dergone some variation in the progress of time. Upwards! of three centuries ago, the husband, on taking his wife, as now, by the right hand, thus addressed her:—" I N. an dersygne the N. fur my wedded wyfe, for peter, for worse, for richer, for porcr, yn sekrusc, and in helthe, tyl dethe us departe, (not " do part," as we have erroneously rendered it, the ancient meaning of " di par to," even in Wickliffe's time, being " separate") 's holy diuretic bath ordeynetl, and thereto I plygth the my trowthe: The wife replies in the same form, with an additional clause," to he buxom to the, tyl dethe us depute." So it appears in the first edi tion of the " Missals for the use of the famous and cele brated Church of Ilereford, 1502," fol. In what is called the Salisbury ilfissal, the lady pronounced a more general 1 obedience, " to be bonere • and buxom in hedtle and at the horde." Edit. Wayland, 1531.

RECEPTION OF MR. BENDERSON AT BOGOTA. (EXTRACT FROM A PRIVATE LETTER.) On the 30th of March, Mr. Henderson, his Britannic Majesty's Consul.Gencral, arrived at Bogota. He was met on the road, about eight miles from the coital, by his Britannic Majesty's Commissioners, and many distinguished persons of Bogota. On the Ist of April he had an interview with Senor Gual, Mi nister for Foreign Aftiiirs, at the Secretary's country house, who expressed much witisficeion at the arrival of a gentleman in a pub lic capacity, who had taken such a warm interest in the welfare of Colombia. Mr. Secretary final returned the visit of the Consul-General nit the 3d, and appointed the Stit to introduce him to the Vice-Presi. dent. On Monday, the sth of April, at 11 o'clock in the morning, the Foreign Secretary introduced Mr. Henderson to the Vice-Presi dent, in the Audience Chamber, who, on being presented to his ' Excellency, delivered Cie following observations : " Mr. Persitiexr,—llaying invariably advocated the cause of South American independence, my pleasure is thereby enhanced on this important occasion, of presenting to your Excellency my commission as Consul-General from his Britannic Majesty, to the Colombian Government. " Your Excellency, and your worthy compatriots will regard it NB an additional earnest. if any were wanting. of the noble senti. menu with which that illustrious Monarch has ever been actuated in favour of the happily rising liberties of the world. " Colombia has pre-emiecntly distinguished herself by the adop tion of a Constitution, in every respect calculated to render her citizens perfectly happy; for it opens to them, in the plenitude of freedom, the glorious pursuits of education, agriculture, and coin. meree, as well as the full expression of their opinions in all the political concerns of their country. Such a Constitution having been the object of the virtuous exertions, and valorous constancy of the Sons of Colombia, there is not, I may safely aver, an lade. ridual in the British empire, from its Prince to the peasant, whose feelings are not in accordance with the heartfelt wishes which 1 have now the honour of terming to your Excellency, for the happiness of a peeple deservedly living under such liberal ir.stitu. tions. Your Excellency, and every Colombian, will discover the testimony of the sincerity of those wishes, in the ample and full freedom which England possesses, and that her enjoyment is con sequently augmented by any portion of her fellow-men arriving at the same state of political felicity. "Colombia now presents, Mr. President, the imposing spectacle of commencing her first friendship with two powerful nations. amongst the freest in tile world, brothers by nature, by blood, and language, and I cannot refrain from manifesting to your Excel lency die ardent sentiments of my heart, not only for the growth and permanency of that friendship, but that the name of Colombia tray lung continue to resound honourably through the world as are wont to do those of all freemen. " The patriotic feeling of Colombia has been recently aroused afresh, from an idea that she would soon have to resist the united efforts of France and Spain against her well earned liberty, but the answer given by the British Government on the 221 of No. vember last, to my friend, the Secretary of the Ship Owner's So ciety, that there was not the slightest pretence for imputing any such design to the French Government. aftwds the consolatory assurance, that the present tranquillity cf Colombia will experis ence no interruption from France. " Presenting myself to your Excellency, as I now do, in the character of a protector of commerce, arid having long arrived at the full conviction, that freedom of trade, with the reutoval of all obstacles to its natural and vigorous course, are the only true mane of rendering a nation illustrious and powerful, I am peculiarly fortunate In being placed near a Government whose manifestatiom of the truth of those principles are happily conspicuous in the very incipiency of Colombian commerce. " The political change of circumstances and the prodigious na tural capabilities of this great country, have Icing been one of the objects of my research, and I have lately traversed an intenoting portion of it ; it is difficult, indeed, to imagine a picture so spin did as it will exhibit, when its productive powers are brought into operation, and I beg earnestly to assure your Excellency , I that all my efforts will be ur.rernittingly employed to render the commercial intercourse of Colombia and Great Britain mutually beneficial, and that the arrival at such a magnificent state of general cultiva. don may he thereby, in some degree, accelerated. It will surely be quite superfluous to state to your Excellency, that the genuine sentiments of the British empire, in opening relations with the new States of the world, ere of the most elevated and disinterested kind. For I may venture to say. that the generous feelings of the King of England, the liberal views of Mr. Canning, so justly appreciated in this capital, and similar views on the part of craw Member of the Brinell Goverment, constitute an impregnable bulwark between despotism and true freedom ; and in countemne. ing, by a friendly connexion, the infantine liberated nations of the resent day, they are illustrious instrument* of the Divine Purpose, for it is the will of God that man shall be free ! ! ! " I cannot conclude, Mr. President, without expressing my personal veneration and respect for the exalted President of this Republic, and my admiration of the talents of your Excellency, nil the other distinguished Members of the Colombian Govern. ment." Ills Excellency answered by asserlag Mr. Henderson of the Fiessute which he felt in seeing an old friend of Colombia In this I capital. ir vested with a distinguished appointment by the Govern- ment of his Britannic Majesty. Yon mill already know. said his' Excellency, that the Excretive has recn misted you as a Member of the Commission of his Britannic Alaj:aty. Tho Commission of Consul-General, which vou bars now put into my bards, will I be emitted to the ogee of the Secretary for Fortig:! Affairs, with ' the corresponding resolution. In the mean time, Mr. Henderson you will believe that there no nation in the universe whose disl positions are so favourable towards threat Britain, as those of the Republic CU: mibia : the natural order of things calls on both nations to cultivate amicable relations, because the tins is eminently industrious, and the other contains within its precincts, all the eta merits of agricultural prosperity.
