THREATENED STRIKE OF STONE MASONS. —A dispute, not likely to be healed, has arisen between the stone masons and their employers in the north, and is now agitating the men belonging to the trade in the metropolis. The dispute has arisen respecting the rough and fine or finishing dressing of stone. Some time since the masters got the stones rough-dressed by machinery, and that die pleased the me; but an agreement was entered into by which the rough-dressing as well as the finishing was loft in the hands of the men. Experience, however, taught the latter that but small wages were to be made by the rough dressing, and accordingly theyaro now determined to give it up. The masters are firm in keeping too men to their agreement, and there is at the present moment every pro bability of a strike, as disastrous in its consequences as that of two years ago. Delegates from London will, it is stated, go to the north to endeavour to adjust the difficulty. T HE "SUN" NE WSPAPER.-G. H.

The sea is calm. The Liverpool Courier states that information has been received of the crew of the ship Southern Empire, from New Orleans, which had been spoken in a sinking state, and the crew nrixous to leave her. The Nottingham Express understands that the return of Col,,nel Wilmot, the Conservative member fot South Derbyshire, is to be petitioned against, and if what our contemporary has heard be true, the elation must be declared void after a little scrutiny. The Echo has the following :—" We informed the public, on the IGth ult., that they must expect the increase of the income-tax to be continued, and we are now able to state that Mr. Lowe intends to propose the continuance of the extra 2d. We ma, also mention the possibilty that the purchase of the telegraphs will be deferred until the Exchequer is in a bolter condition. At a Conservative dinner given at Tockington, in Gloucester ? the other evening, the chairman, in proposing Success to the Conservative cause," confessed that the 11onservatives must always be beaten in the long run, and ..mid loud cries of "No, no," he reiterated his opinion, and Declared that Conservatism was the drag on the polit!ca; coach to prove At it.flgtl going too fast. MR. B. JOHNSON IN BEDFORDS.UIBE. Mr. Reverdy Johnson has again been doing what hie opponents in New York call "spouting weak sentiment." On Monday he attended the opening of a new Corn Exchange and new Plait Halls, at Luton. The leading part in the ceremony of the day was taken by Lord Cowper, lord-lieutenant of the county of Bedford, who was assisted by the American Minister, and by Six J. Burgoyne, high sheriff of the county, Lord Charles Russell, Colonel Gilpin, M. P., Mr. H. Cowper, M.P., Mr. H. Russell, M.P., Mr. H. Brand, M.P., Mr. L. Ames, Sir J. Sebright, Colonel Stuart, the Rev. J. O'Neill, Colonel Wood, the Rev. J. Hinds, &c. Both the Corn Exchange and the Plait Halls are creditable buildings for a small town like Luton. They have been erected at a cost of £15,000. In reply to an address from the Local Board of Health, Mr. Johnson returned a written speech, which in brief con gratulated those present on the end of all causes of differences between the two countries, England and the United States. His Excellency also spoke viva voce. That speech was also laudatory of a unity between the two countries. Having known by experience the bitter results of civil war, be was the more ready to deprecate anything like the mention of hostilities between the two nations. "Do we differ in faith ? No. Do we differ in our intense love of liberty? No. Do we differ in those principles of free dom on which our respective institution repose ? No. We are as free as you are. In some reepetts—whether advantageously or not the future will tell—we are, perhaps, more free than you are. We have a larger share in our Government than you had in the past, or have now, in yours ; but if I read the signs of the times aright it will not be long so. The noble lord has expressed a hope that this town, with a population of 20,000 or 22,000 souls, will be represented in Parliament. With us it would not have . been necessary to express that hope, for you would have been represented long ago, whether for weal or for woe. But that intelligent men—and I was about to say intelligent women—ought to have their voice heard directly in the Parliament by whose laws they are governed, would seem to be manifestly intended by nature ; and nature, I believe, never inculcates doctrines from which mischief can result. Judging from your press formerly, you have been under the impression that your Government is stronger than ours ; but that is a mistake. You have been under the impression that because you had a King or a Queen — and the name of her Majesty ought never to be men tioned without honour and we only a President, you were far in advance of us in executive power ; but that also is a delusion. The President holds his seat no matter what the Parliament says; the members of his Cabinet hold their places no matter what the Parliament says ; and both the President and the Cabinet hold their position, no matter what the people may say, between intervening elections. How is it with you, my lord? Can the Queen do anything except exhibit the virtues which give a charm to private life. Can she do anything to resist popular opinions as expressed in the House of Commons ? Can the House, my lord, of which you are an honoured member stand out long against the public voice? Ido not know what it may be able to do in the future, but it has not done it in the recent past. The power, therefore, of your Government, legislative and executive, is in the Hope of Commons, and for that very reason, my friends of Luton, it seems to me to be just that you should have a word to say in it." The rest of his speech referred more ,to the local trade of Luton. He expressed a hope that ere long a new style of bonnet would become fashionable, and the straw trade of the town thus revive. In a speech at the banquet, in answer to the toast of his health, Mr. Johnson replied to Lord Cowper, who had proclaimed the superiority of England, in that here a lady might become head of the State. "I have read the Constitution of the United States more than once," said Mr. Johnson, "and there is nothing in it that draws a distinction between the sexes in that particular. I know it has been said that occasionally we have had an old woman over us, but we have never yet tried the expefiment of having a young and beautiful woman elected our President. However, in this age of progress, when strong-minded women are abroad, who can tell what is going to happen? If it should happen, my lord, that we elect a beautiful, charming, intellectual woman, don't delude yourself by the belief that we shall not cherish her as much as you cherish your beloved Queen." Further, Mr. Johnson noted how mistaken Chatham had been in supposing the star of the British Empire to have set for ever when the independence of America was acknow ledged. England, he said, had gone on since then more prosperously than ever: It was a small place, but one which exercised a mighty influence. May the United States never learn the full power. Not that they were afraid of it, but that it would be a sad day for both ations. THE CASE OF WILLIAM BISGROVE. We understand that since the remission of the capital sentence in the case of William Bisgrove, the authorities of Taunton prison have become convinced of his insanity ; and he will be removed in a few days to the asylum for criminal lunatics at Broadmoor. The remission of the capital sentence was, we believe, the result of an inquiry conducted by the Chief Constable of Somersetshire under instructions from the Home Office, and set on foot in consequence of facts coining to light of which there was not even a suggestion at the trial. In the course of the inquiry it appeared that Bisgrove, an illegitimate child, and insufficiently fed and clothed during the first years of his life, had always been of weak health and intellect ; and that for three years he had been subject to epileptic fits of frequent recurrence, and usually followed by impulses to seize whatever might be near him—a stone, a hatchet, or a knife—and attack the bystanders. It was, how ever, not difficult on these occasions to disarm rtnd calm him by remonstrances, after which knives were carefully kept out of his way. He had always lived in the same neighbourhood, where, when not under the in 6uence of a fit, he was a quiet, good-tempered lad ; lie was much liked and pitied by his neighbours, and not given to drink. The epileptic fits first became frequent while Bis ,,rove was working in the Radstock Collieries, and were übsequent to (if they did not originate in) two accidents, which occurred in his presence while he was in the col lieries, and which greatly terrified him. One of these was the death of a man whose head was broken by a stone falling on it from the roof of the pit. In consequence of Bisgrove's liability to fits, and inability to take care of himself, he was first made to work in a safer part of the colliery, and was ultimately discharged. Soon after he had a sunstroke, which increased the frequency of the fits. In the autumn of 1867 he went to sea, the doctor who had attended him thinking he might in this way be cured. He returned in May, not cured, though the fits (of which there were at least two between the time of his return and the murder in August) were followed, not by excesses of fury, as before, but by a feeble and semi-conscious state continuing for a day or two. Those who knew him described him as having after his return lost " his bright look," and appearing "'scared." The witnesses who were examined by the chief con stable included the people with whom he had lived when a child and out of work, the certificated master whose school he attended, a farmer in whose house he had lived for four years, the bailiff and the manager of the Radstock Collieries, and the doctor who had attended him at the time of the sunstroke. At the trial Bisgrove was defended only by counsel assigned him at the last moment by the judge ; and nothing was put in evidence but the events of the night on which the murder was committed. But the facts since brought to light tally in a remarkable manner with the absence, noticed at the trial, of any motive in Bisgrove for the commission of the murder and with its special circumstances, and they are not less con sistent with the insanity which is now proved to exist.— Daily NeltB. A BARRISTER SHOT AS A BOAR. —M. Rogelet, an advocate of Metz, who had not attained his 30th year, has just fallen a victim to a deplorable accident while boar-hunting in the forest of Bettlainville. One of his companions, in the gloom of a wet evening, taking the unfortunate gentleman for the animal pursued, fired and shot him full in the breast, killing him instantaneously. Dr. Russell, the celebrated Times correspondent in the Crimea, accompanies the Prince and Princess of Wales in their visit to the Nile. It is understood that Dr. Russell has been requested by his Royal Highness to make notes of the journey, with a view to publication on the re turn of the royal party. Much interest would naturally at tach to such a work. We hear that Dr. Russell is not ex pected to furnish special letters to the Times. Mr. C.
