Its title is " The Colonial Society." Its obj -cts are to est tblish here—in the Metropolis of the British Empire—a rendezvous for all those who are in any way connected with our Forty Colonies. To this end the association pro pnees to erect a Reading Room, a Library, and a Museum. Under the shelter of its to ,foeams it is intended that authentic and reliable iefortna tion may be at all times obtained by those either personally or professionally (as one may say) interested in the undertaking. Time intelligence thus rendered accessible to them, is to be of course always as much as possible on a level with the most recently acquired knowledge upon subjects of a colonial j character. Added to this, the intention of the Colonial Society is to facilitate the interchange of per sonal experiences among those representing one or other of our more or less remote and scattered dependencies. Opportunities, moreover, will be afforded every now and then for the reading of papers and for the holding of discussions upon colonial matters as eircunistances may permit or oc casion may require. Colonial produce will be col lected and exhibited either intermittently or periodi cally. And, whenever it may be thought advisable, in connection with the interests of the Bri tish Empire, the Society will undertake, at uncertain intervals, scientific, or literary, or statistical investigations. The wonder is that nothing of the kind has ever previously been undertaken. Now that the associ ttion has been formed, it is earnestly desirable that it should be supported and encouraged with a cordiality that will enable it to develope its resources and its ope• rations to some extent proportionately with the vastness and vatlety of the cause and of the interests which it represents. At the inaugural banquet which took place yesterday, the Chair was oecui ied by the noble lord, the repre sentative of the border town or burgh of Berwick- uron-Tweed. And Lord Bunt, as Chairman, was surrounded, or, as the phrase is, supported on t his occa sion, among others, by four of the Cabinet Ministers— ttie First Lord of the Treasury, the Seereta:y of State for the Colonies, the First Lord of the Admiralty , and th e right hon. gentlenein the Chief Secretary for Ireland. 'There, tco, was the United States Minister, there, too, were the ex-President of the Council, the ex-Secretary for 'War, the ex-Secretary for India, and t,early tv.o nendred ()thus, collected toothee, a it happened, irons al parts of the habitable :;lobe. "Our country," as the noble Chairman ernarked, " had sent forth its offshoots ill THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 11, 1869. every direction," and—referring immediately after wards to the original promoters of our colonial empire—Lord BURY added —" Their descendants from 11 parts of the world were around that table that night." The Prime Minister, alluding to the pecu liarly representative character of those who were, hen and there, assembled together, and who were listening at the moment to the words he was giving utterance to, hesitated not to say emphatically, "There is no degree of latitude or lon gitude upon the whole surface of the globe that has not, I believe, sent its contribution to this meeting ; and I rejoice," he said, " that the time has come when it is fully recognised that while the tie of affection between England and her colonies grow stronger and stronger, the nature of the rela tions between them is better and better under ;itood, a relation no doubt associated with impe rial interests, and founded upon something still higher, upon honour and affection, having, above all, the basis and the essential principles of free dom, a departure from which, or the slightest im pairing of which, in the policy which governs this country's action towards the colonies, would at once destroy the great charm which characterises the con nexion between them." It is the instant and vivid recognition of all this which imparts such peculiar in terest as we conceive to the formation of the Colonial Society, and the national and we will even say im perial event of its formal inauguration yesterday. SURELY never did so small a measure as Mr. Loc KE KING'S Intestacy Bill excite so much opposition. All that the bill proposes to do is to extend the principle already in force, that if a man does not make a will the State should make one for him, such as he would have been likely to make. At present, if a man dies intestate, and leaves money in the funds and land, the State says the money shallbe divided, but the land shall go to the eldest son. Supposing that there is only land, it must still go to the male child who happens to be born first, even though he should be a lunatic or a blackguard, and even though there may be half-a-dozen other children who are sane and virtuous. The first gets everything ; the others are beggars. Worse than that, if an intestate dies without children, and leaves only land, the land may go to a relative whom he may never have seen, and his wife may be left destitute. It is very wrong, of course, for him to leave no will; but why should the law lay a penalty upon impru dence—a penalty, moreover, borne not by the person offending, but by the person offended against ? Why if the intestate has done an injury should the State make that injury ten times worse ? There is absolutely no argument against Mr. KING'S bill. If it proposed to make division of land among the children compulsory, as in France, there might be some reason for alarm. But it professes to do nothing of the sort. It does not prevent a man from making as unjust or as fantastic a will as he pleases ; it slys only, "If you make no will, we will make one for you, and it shall be the most equitable that can be devised." Sir LAWRENCE PALK denounced the bill as " tyrannical," because, as he said, "it told a man that he should not leave his estate as he desired." Thereby the member for East Devon shewed that he had not read the bill. Otherwise he would have seen that—as its very title " Real Estate Intestacy " implies—it has nothing to do with the making. of wills, but concerns only those who do not make wills. Mr. STAPLETON, the member for Berwick-on-Tweed, urged two mutually destructive arguments against the bill: one that it would, by altering the ancient law of the country, bring about great changes; the other, that it would have only an infinitesimal effect. The first objection is nonsense, the second is the best possible answer to the objectors. If the effects will be so minute, why this violent opposition to the measure ? If the knowledge that intestacy will involve a division of property induces land owners to make their wills in favour of the eldest son, how will the admirers of the law of primogeni ture be in a worse position than they are now ? The opposition to this bill is simply childish. Tun discussion on the Yangehow affair in the House of Lords, and the expressions of opinion to which it gave rise, may perhaps preserve us from a repetition of the Abyssinian- experiment in the interior of China. Whatever may be the influence of missionary labours on the progress of Chris tianity, they are unquestionably productive of much political trouble. Our difficulties with missionaries in China have become so serious, and the intervention of armed force to protect them so frequent, that, as the Duke of SOMERSET remarked, we are propagating Christianity with gunboats. We are virtually leaving the Chinese the single alternative of accepting a faith which they know not, or of having their houses battered down by Armstrong guns. Missionaries, both French and English, establish themselves in towns to which our treaty rights do not extend. Many of them are courageous and self-denying, really anxious for the spread of Christian doctrine, and willing to encounter danger in the prosecution of their work. They preach a doctrine which, however noble and good, is strange to the country, repugnant to the people, and hostile to the influence of their leaders. If the Chinese are inclined to tolerate this teaching, which is seldom the case, their intellectual and spiritual superiors infallibly resent it. A mob is raised, the missionary residence is assailed, and per sonal injury and insult are too often the issue. The naval officer on the station is appealed to, and gene rally lends a willing ear to complaints. An attack upon a Chinese town is an agreeable relief to the intolerable monotony of watching for pirates in a tropical clime ; the missionary finds ready allies, and the attempt to spread Christianity ends in an act of war. This is the history of the Yangchow affair, and of most others of the kind. In some cases Protestant and Roman Catholic missions perplex the Chinese by their conflicting doctrines, and in one or two instances Christianity has been put to shame by the direct and primary employment of violence. The proper, the only righteous course for the missionaries to follow is clear. The pro pagation invariably o and respect, fChrist u i v an m i m tyis an enterprise and thetetrprisewhich missionary societies have perfect liberty in choosing the scene and the scope of their labours. But they cannot justifiably involve this country in political complications they t u on their uponbeh alf,heirthe arm and still less l assistance of British troops. Two courses a p r u e ts op it e , n fu t l o low th i e u m. thu They path of f an a trade, , sL a o u rd CL d confine et n he o i N r labours to those countries and districts which are open to them, and where their teaching is tolerated by the native authorities. Their labours would not thus be unduly confined, for even in this restricted range the harvest is great and the labourers dispro portionately few. On this condition they will always be safe and certain of the shelter of the British flag. But if they decide to follow the example of the Apostles, and carry the Gospel into all lands regard less of human laws, they must not look for the aid of gunboats. They are free to choose this course ; but their relations with secular authorities become mate rially altered. They violate the law of nations which gives to every State the privilege of choosing its own laws, and of forbidding and sanction ing what it pleases upon its own territory. In fact, they invade China, and enter into conflict with the Chinese Government, which they must support on their own responsibility. Conver sion by force of arms was considered laud ible by the sons of Isr,Am, but it has never been recognise d as a just tenet of the Christian faith. Our repeate interferences to exact reparation for wrongs to missionaries have been utterly unsatisfactory in a politic it senso, and decidedly prejudicial to the interests of religion. They have involved us in dif ferences with the Government of Pekin, prevenf.ed the development of trade, and the opening of :the resources contained within the Celestial Empire. : rid few persons will believe that the Chinese differ from the rest of the world in not detesting a doctrine which they are compelled either to listen to, or receive the broadside of a British war ship. The missionaries will do well not to go beyond the confines of civilisation. The world cannot be regenerated in a day. But if they disregard this principle, they must not look to aid from English officers. These have received definite instructions that in future they are not to determine, on their own responsibility, what redress is due for wrong to British subjects, or how it should be exacted. They can interfere only when life is in danger of being sacrificed, and even then they will be required to shew that they could not rescue the threatened Englishmen by taking them on board ship. The English Government rightly decides that in these affairs there ought to be no difference between China and a European State. .ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. Alp.. .......---- SCARBOROUGH.— Sir Harcourt Johnstone has consent to offer himself as a candidate for the representation of Scarborough, as the successor of his father. The hon. baronet has issued his address, and attended a meeting of his supporters yesterday. BRADFORD. —An address has been issued by the Brad. ford Working Men's Conservative Association, exhorting the Conservatives to vote for Mr. Thompson. The executive committee of both candidates are doing their utmost to render the contest as pure as possible. The nomination takes place this (Thuroci,v) morning, and the polling to-morrow. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. MOIL OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, WEDNESDAY, March 10. Europe must be in a bad way when the departure of an ambassador from his Court produces a commercial panic. Yet the return of the Duc de Grammont from Vienna to Paris, together with one or two more unfa vourable symptoms, has thrown the Bourse into a perfect terror. The New Free Press says he is recalled on account of the unsatisfactory relations between France and Prussia, and this hypothesis gains strength by the much-talked-of interview between the Sovereigns of Austria and Italy. Furthermore, before the Emperor Francis Joseph left Vienna he gave orders that the Archduke should take his place at a banquet to be given at the Italian Ministry, in honour of King Victor Emmanuel's birthday, which is on the 14th of March. And this is the present state of Europe : a duke has left Vienna, one or two archdukes are - going to take part in a dinner, and straightway the Bourse at Paris feels the effect of these alarming determinations, whilst some of the German Bourses are even in a worse state of tremor. The Etendard, however, comes out with a strongly pacific bulletin. "Our information permits us to affirm that the Grand-Luxemburg Railway question is in a fair way of settlement. The Belgian Cabinet having repeatedly affirmed that the sole object of the new law is to protect the commercial inter ests of Belgium, the French Government was naturally led to ask whether the projected agreement between the East of France and the Grand-Luxemburg companies is of a nature to affect those interests, The Belgian Govern ment has replied that the union of these two railways under one direction might prove inconvenient on account of the combination of the tariffs. The trade of Belgium might suffer if the East of France Company established a reduced scale of fares for goods passing from France to Belgium. In consequence, this affair, which has caused so much disturbance, has led to nothing more serious than a simple discussion respecting fares." This is important news, but the conclusion drawn by the Etendard is obviously unsound. The dispute is not simply a discussion concerning fares. The Belgian Government has now the power to refuse the concession of a Belgian line to any foreign company, and the French Government asks if it intends to do so in this particular instance. Is it likely that the Belgian Ministry would give a point-blank refusal? No; it proceeds cautiously, and puts forth this ingenious argu ment about fares. The plea is neat and very just, for it is clear that if a French company worked a Belgian rail way, the commerce of the smaller country might be mate rially injured by goods being brought at a cheap rate from Belgium into France. But it is also clear that the argu. meat is a pretence, and nothing more. Those who see anything serious in this railway affair will hardly be re assured by the Etendard's declaration. M. Jules Favre has done a disinterested action which deserves recording. He is deputy for the City of Paris, and was certain to be re-elected, for the French workmen who are employed by M. Haussmann never vote for Government candidates. But M. Favre has offered to stand for the third circumscription of the Gers, where his election will be much less certain, in order to oppose M. Granier de Cassagnac. This contest will be one of the most exciting at the next election. The Papal Nuncio has had a long interview with the Emperor. It is thought that the Pope's letter to the Archbishop of Paris has been the subject of discussion. There is every reason to believe that the Constitutionnel is entering upon a new phase of policy. Without ceasing to support the Government, it will on some ques tions take an independent course. Such a change has been found necessary. The public do not read Imperialist papers, and they consequently do not pay. A journal must do something to keep up with the times, or sink altogether. The Government is taking strong measures against excesses at public meetings. A student of architecture, aged 22, was tried yesterday at the Tribunal of Correc tional Police on a charge of exciting to hatred and con tempt of the Emperor's Government, and of outraging public and religious morals, by a speech at a public meet ing at Belleville. He was sentenced to eight months' im. prisonment, £2O fne, and the payment of the costs—a very severe infliction, which might advantageously hays been tried upon an old offender first. The Seine is rising so rapidly that the quays andlanding wharves are partly submerged. The stormy weather still continues in some parts. Reports of disasters to shipping flow in apace. At Toel— a violent gale is now raging. The elections in Hungary are unquestionably lively. The recent decree of the Ministry may put a stop to riots, but they have already been so violent that the list of killed and wounded exceeds 100. A teacher in the canton of Zurich has just been arrested on a charge of having caused the death of a little girl b 3 corporal punishment. He had caught her by the hair and shaken her head with such violence that a cerebral congestion supervened, of which she al.a Lord Stanley of Alderley has been unable to attend to his Parliamentary duties this session, owing to illness. The village of Etraignes, in France, has been de ttroyed by fire, and the loss amounts to £32,000. The Bishop of London has appointed the Rev. Thomas Fraser Stocks, M.A., Prebendary of St. Paul's, to bo ono of his lordship's chaplains. The correspondence as to the International Yacht Mee is still being conducted, and ha 3 not yet resulted in anything definite. On Tuesday a boiler explosion happened at the works of Messrs. James Grice and Son, gun implement manufacturers, West Bromwich. Ono man and a woman were found to have sustained serious injuries. John Balchin, the trustee of a Foresters' Court, who was charged with stealing £5B ss. from the Society, was tried to-day at the Middlesex Sessions, and sentenced to four months' hard labour. Wednesday being the sixth anniversary of the mar riago of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, the auspicious occasion was duly celebrated at Windsor. Prince Schonberg, a young Prussian nobleman of groat wealth and ancient family, has been received into the Roman Catholic Church by Cardinal Buonaparte. His conversion has given tho utmost gratification to his Holiness. A telegram from Turin announces that the mail from France of the 28th is buried under an avalanche of snow, near the House of Refuge, No. 5, on Mount Cenis. Hitherto there has been no possibility of extricating the car riages. No lives have been lost. It is reported that the budget of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, says the Star, will include a proposal for an additional penny of income tax. This would realise a sum nearly corresponding to the difference between the Abyssi nian deficit of £3,500,000, and the savings of £2,500,000 effected on the estimates. The Manchester grand jury, on concluding their tabours on Tuesday, made a presentation to Mr. Justice Brett in favour of the licensing of beerhouses being transferred to the magistrates. His lordship said the only duty be had to perform as to the presentation was to forward an intimation on the subject to the Government, and this he would cer tainly do. We regret to say that there was no foundation for the statement we copied from an Exeter paper to the effect that Bishop Trower had been appointed Episcopal Com missary for that diocese. Tho present abeyance of Episcopal jurisdiction and supervision will probably continue during the remainder of the Bishop of Exeter's lifo. Whoever is responsible for its continuance has a great deal to answer for.—Guardian. it is stated, says the Echo, that the President of the Board of Trade has determined to sanction the rope system for passenger train signals agreed upon by the managers at their York meeting, giving to such lines as have electric or other signals in use the right of continuing them ; and not restricting, o should hope, any from adopt ting the pneumatic or any other system they may prefer for its superior advantages. The Guardian says of Mr. Disraeli's amendment : —The resolution taken by the chiefs of the Opposition to fight a pitched tattle on the second reading of the Irish Church Bill has the merit of straightforwardness, and may for party objects be not unwise. But if so, this is one of the many cases in which the in terests of the Conservative party are not the interests of the Church. lie must be very shortsighted, who either really thinks that the Irish Establishment can bo permanently maintained, or, not really thinking that it can, prefers, instead of trying to make the best of this bill, to risk the chances, practically overwhelming, of a worse.: The Manchester Courier says—The Rev. J. A. Sedgwick, the rector of St. Alban's, of that city, h a s written a conciliatory letter to the Bishop of Manches ter, in which ho undertakes to comply with the sugges tions thrown out by the Archbishop of York with re spect to certain ritual practices, and which have recently been the subject of appeal. The letter was taken in person by a prominent member of the congregation, who had an audience of the bishop yesterday. His lordship, regarding former assurances, did not, it is said, seem dis posed to return a very satisfactory reply. The geutleinan who was leputed to have an interview with his lordshir represented that ho was ono of a congregation of at least five hundred persons, who wished to worship at St. Alban't Church, and asked what they were to do ? The bishop i E reported to have said that if he reinstated Mr. Sedgwick he must have a very distinct undertaking from him as to the manner in which, for the future, the services of the church were to be conducted. his lordship's written decision ii wititt4 wit 4 ion 41.410 i. POPULATION RETURNS. Among tne parliamentary papers just issued is one which is very brief but very suggestive. It gives the estimated population of England, Scotland, and Ireland at the middle of the year 1868, with the total amount of revenue derived from taxation for the two years ending 31st Dec. ,1867, shewing, too, the number of representati yes which each of these divisions of the United Kingdom would have if the 658 members of the House of Commons were allotted proportionally to the population and the revenue. The result of these calculations is that England, which has now 500 members, should, according to her population, have 469 ; Scotland, which has 53, is entitled to 69, and Ireland, which has now 105, is entitled to 120. Divided according to revenue, the results are somewhat different. England should have 496 members, Scotland 93, and Ireland 69. It will thus be seen that there is a difference of 51 between the two esti- mates as regards Ireland, while Scotland, in either case, gains on her present number. THE COMIC PAPERS. (Prom Punch.)

SO SAY ALL OF us ,--- Mr. Gladstone is anx i ous t o alter the rating clause in Mr. Disraeli's Reform Bill, and generally to reduce the rates payable throughout the country. Surely no proposition could be more appropriate from one who is the most over -rated mall in her Majesty's dominions. The Church News, in an article on Mr. Gladstone's Irish Church Bill, says :—" We do not deny that the mongrel crew at Mr. Gladstone's back possesses a consi derable amount of brute force, and that brute force may very probably triumph. But there can - be no doubt that Mr. Gladstone's bill is more truly revolutionary than anything which has been done since the so-called Reformation—if we except the Great Rebellion and the hateful incursion of Dutch William." Mr. Daniel, Q.c. , on Tuesday gave j ud g ement in a case, which will d ec id e several o th er s, arising out of the re cent election inqui ry at Bradfor d . A witness who had been subpoenaed cu behalf of the petitioners against Mr. Forster, sought to recover expensas for four days' atte n dance. The de fence, however, was that on one day ho attended, not on behalf of the petitioners but to support the caso of the respondents, and that on another day he was in court to gratify his desire to hear Mr. Baron Martin's judgment. The defendants, Messrs. Storry and Garnett, had paid 15s. into court, which they held was sufficient, and in this view the Judge con curred, and gave a verdict for the defendants. THE PROSECUTION OF MR. BENNETT. The present Bishop of London is, like his prede cessor, unwilling t o ass i st i n any wa y the suit against Mr. Bennett. He must do, of course, what it is his legal duty to do, but he declines, if wo rightly understand what has passed, to go a step further, and has not hesitated, by thus acting, to draw on himself the acrimonious attacks of the partisans who wish to force forward these ill-advised pro ceedings. The Bishop's sympathies are certainly not with Mr. Bennett ; but he doubtless sees, as others see, that this prosecution, founded on some incautious expressions, is really levelled against a body of religious opinion which has always existed within the English Church, and is intended to narrow her pale and expel from her communion pious men who have been and are perfectly loyal to her.—Guardian. A melancholy accident occurred yesterday at a chemical works near Birmingham. A retort, which was being 1,801 in an extracting process, exploded, and set fire to barrels ..f napttl a and other com' ustibles on the premises. The fire could not be extinguished, and two men working were literally burnt to a cinder. your others, including the foreman, were fearfully injured. THE COLONIAL SOCIETI Wednesday, being a parliamentary half-holiday, is generally, during the session, the day fixed for public dinners, or at least for those at which political men are expected to attend. On Wednesday last the Hon. Reverdy Johnson, the Duke of Manchester, the Marquis of Normanby, Earl Granville, the Earl of Albemarle, Viscount Monck, Lord Alfred Churchill, Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, Sir John Pakington, Sir Staf ford Northcote, Sir Charles Nicholson, Sir George E. Cartier, Right Hon. Chichester Fortescue, Right Hon. H. E. Childers, Hon. Dudley Fortescue, M.P., Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P., Hon. Robert Meade, Sir Bartle Frere, Sir Charles Clifford, Sir J. C. Lees, Mr. Benjamin Moran, Colonel Lloyd Lindsay, M.P., Mr. R. A. Macfie, M.P., with some 300 others, dined together at Willis's Rooms. Viscount Bury presided, the occasion being the inaugural dinner of the Colonial Society. Amongst the speakers to various toasts were his Excellency the American Ambassador, Messrs. Childers, Gladstone, Chichester Fortescue, Sir John Pakington, and Lord Granville. The Hon. lIEVERDY JOHNSON has slightly changed his style of oratory. On this occasion he commenced by declaring that the people of the United States had great love and admiration for us ; but went on to clear the minds of the meeting from a false impression. Doubts, or rather settled opinions, were at one time entertained as to the power of the United States to acquire fresh territory either by conquest or treaty. Those doubts were now removed, and it was quite possible that with the consent of this country, and the people more immediately con cerned, some of the colonies which now flourished under the dominion of her Majesty—. lominion of which they had just cause to be proud —might find themselves under the stars and stripes of the flag of the United States. Should that happen, they would find that they had made an exchange for a country of which they might also be proud, though he trusted that the day might be far distant when the possessions of England should be in any way curtailed. Mr. Childers said little, and that little consisted for the most part of commonplaces ; but the Prime Minister's speech made up for that. Thanking the meet ing, composed as it was of those who were opposed to him in politics, for the cordiality with which it had received the toast of " Her Majesty's Ministers," Mr. GLADSTONE went on to say, " We ask nothing but the belief that we, having acceded to office with certain professions of opinion and pledges with regard to our conduct, shall do that which every body of English gentlemen will be forward and zealous to do—namely, to redeem those pledges and to act upon those principles to the utmost extent to which our powers and opportunities will permit." He then proposed the toast of "Prosperity to the Colonial Society," and reminded the meeting that at one time he had been a member of the Colonial Department. Thirty four years ago he first accepted office in that department, and his connection with it was finally severed twenty three years back. He alluded to the great change which ha 3 of late years come into the minds of Englishmen with regard to colonial affairs. " In the days when I was accus tomed to wear with my footsteps the stairs of the Colonial Office that office was haunted by a disembodied spirit that received a painful distinction under the title of Mr. Mother Country.' (Laughter.) And while that descrip tion conveys no inaccurate idea of the narrow traditions that still hung round about the conceptions of English statesmen more or less, although they were in process of being discharged at that period, on the other side of the water, and in every Britrgh colony there was a party whieh, I rejoice to think, has since become totally extinct, under the name of ' the British party.' I speak in the hearing and remembrance of those who may recollect the circumstances and struggles of those times, and many of us in this country were taught, or attempts, at any rate, were made to induce us to believe that upon this British party' which invariably represented au insignificant minority, depended the whole hope of maintaining the connection between England and the colonies, and that if anything were done to offend that `British party,' or to recognise the vast majority of the colonial community as having a claim upon our sympa thies and acknowledgment, such a policy was certain to be fatal to the colonial empire at large. This was the state of things, and so strange was it, that merely to recollect it now seems like bringing back from the grave the spirits of the dead, so wholly is that state of things without a Parallel iu the present day." The Duke of MANCHESTER, in returning thanks for the House of Lords, could find but one fault with that As sembly—that it contained no representatives of our colonies among its members. Our colonists had a right to express their opinion and give their advice upon the general policy of the empire, and he should hail with , leasnre the establishment of a council in which Great Britain and the colonies were represented in duo pro nortions. The Secretary for the Colonies gave Mr. Johnson a neat plow. "I happened," said Earl GRANVILLE, " to mention the vther fiicnd of mine, by way of encouraging me, said the office I bad accepted was one which he had always considered required but a modicum of sense. That phrase is somewhat vague, for I fear sense is an article that we credit ourselves with to a far more liberal extent than our friends are inclined to do. But no amount of sense could enable us to get on satisfactorily if we had not at hand the assistance, the ability, and the talent which are found to so remarkable an extent in the permanent staff of the Colonial Department. lam rather afraid the Minister of the Great Republic who has spoken with such singular eloquence this evening will feel that it is a little want of sense on my part which makes me un ..zepared at this moment to open negotiations with him for ,he cession of British Canada." The Earl then went on to refer to two points of colonial interest which had lately arisen—the transfer of British North America (excepting British Columbia) to the dominion of Canada, and the creation of a colonial order of knighthood. On the former subject he said the matter was the most diffi cult with which he had had to deal. " The proposal of my predecessor, who had invited the presence of the dele gates and taken much pains on the subject, had been rejected. My strong political opponent, but old friend, Sir Stafford Northcote, and Sir Curtis Lampson, who both enjoy the confidence of the Hudson's Bay Company, and the eminent statesmen representing Canada held views so widely divergent that I almost despaired of success. Each seemed to consider me as" hostile to themselves and favourable to the other side. I had only one weapon, but an arm of great power in public and in private transactions—the power of ` bore.' I bombarded them with despatches, private letters, and confidential notes. I plied them with interminable talk, and at last, when I judged them exhausted and prostrate from mere fatigue, I fired at the whole covey with a proposal which, unpalatable to each, might he accepted as a reasonable compromise by both. The handicapper of racehorses is, by the rules of an art invented by Charles Fox, supposed to succeed if both the owners object or if both accept ; and I should consider myself fortunate, indeed, if my pro posal should be objected to by each, but accepted by both." Speaking of the new colonial honours, he said : " The Duke of Buckingham procured the Queen's sanction to a reorganisation of the order of St. Michael and St. George, its extension to the whole of the colonies, and a complete remodelling of its statutes. _llls was only done on the eve of the Duke's resignation. He had consequently only time to distribute several of the second and third classes of the Order. I have endeavoured to carry out mypredecessor's views. It is obvious that with the affectionate feelings entertained in the colonies toward the mother country it would be agreeable to distinguished men in the former not to be disassociated from those who are eminent in this country. For these reasons lam happy to say that his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge has consented to take the Grand Mastership of the renovated Order. Lord Derby, Lord Grey and Lord Russell have accepted the Grand Cross, which I was empowered by her Majesty to offer them. These men had all been in one way and another, connected with the colonies Lord Derby passed the Act for the abolition of slavery in the West Indies, one of the most glorious and disinterested measures of which this country can boast. Lord Russell gave self-government to British North America. Lord Grey did the same for Australia, and left his strong mark on all the great questions of colonial policy. My duty for whatever time I may be connected with the Colonial Office will be to maintain the high character which has thus been impressed on the present Order." Sir STAFFORD NORTHCOTE and Sir BARTLE FREER were among the remaining speakers. THE Disnor OF CARLISLE.—In consequence of the severe illness of the Hon. and Right Rev. Dr. Samue Waldegrave, Bishop of Carlisle, his lordship has pro ceeded, under medical advice, to the Continent for some months' entire rest. Dr. Anderson, Chancellor of St. Paul's Cathedral, formerly Bishop of Rupert's Land, has been appointed commissary during Bishop Waldegrave's absence. INDIAN SALARIES AND APrOINTMENTS.—A copy of an Order in Council, which approves of certain pro. posed alterations of salaries and appointments in the India Office, has been printed by order of the House of Commons. It is stated by Mr. Helps that her Majesty having taken into consideration the representation of the Secretary of State for India, was pleased, with the advice of her Majesty's Privy Council, to approve thereof ; and declares that the salaries in the said statement shall be paid to the officers therein described. In the Store Department the number of senior clerks is to be increased from four to six, and the number of junior clerks to be fixed at thirteen instead of sixteen. Some of the other appointments are revised and amalgamated, and the appointment of extra assistant to Registrar is not to L filled up, when vacated by Mr. Ludlow.
