ATONEY MARKET COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Two o'CLocK. The English St oc k Market has presented a heavy and de pressed appearance to-day, and the Funds show a decline of per cent.

This number would a yep largely increased, but the department has found kagred deal of difficulty in finding persons to act as post ttit ~r,acan take the required oath of allegiance to the tlao:V g,ates. This oath requires them to declare that the y have never participated M nor sympathised with ryebellioo N„,reet t yro miners arrived at St. Louis last 153.„;,r0nl Montana, who brought through with them th at "° ill gold.

The Mon ey M arket has been very acti 0 ve, CLO and the rates for discount accommodation have been firm at feior 6. 1 and 7 pe r cent. The fortnightly settlement in foreign bonds and all classes of shares is occasioning a good inqui ry f or money, especially for short loans ; and this, together with the bills ariving at maturity on the 4th of the month, cause the demand to be rather larger than usual. In the manufacturing districts last week there was rather less animation, particularly as regards opera tions in the textile departments of Manchester, Leeds, Bradford and Huddersfield. At Leicester and Not tingham the hosiery and lace trades were mode rately active, w hil e at Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton increased activity prevailed in most department; chiefly to supply foreign demands.

MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE. The trade for wheat in the country markets held on Saturday was very firm, and a further advance of Is per qr. took place in prices. Spring corn of all descriptions was in request, and the quotations had an upward tendency. For flour there was a steady demand, and prices wore rather on the advance. On the Continent the wheat trade is firm, with an up ward movement in price. At New York the export demand has slightly increased, and both wheat and flour have rea lised higher prices. Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of wheat from Essex and 1 - Cent were very small, but most samples were received in fair condition. The trade was very firm both for red and white qualities, and a clearance of the supply brought forward was reaclily:effected. As com pared with Monday last, the prices realised showed an ad vance of 2s per quarter. The supply of barley on sale was very moderate. The trade for malting qualities was firm, and an improvement of is per qr. took place in their value. Grinding and dis tilling parcels moved off steadily at fully late rates. Tho supply of foreign wheat on sale was moderato. For all descriptions tho trade was very firm, and the quotations were is. to 2s. per quarter higher than on Monday last. There was a good demand for floating cargoes of wheat, at an advance in prices of is. to 2s. per quarter, Spring corn afloat was very firm, and the quotations had an up ward tendency. was firm, but all other agricultutal seeds mot a slow sale. Linseed and rapeseed changed hands-to a moderato extent at quite late rites. The demand for cakes improved on former terms. r Attempted Murder in Covent Garden Market• --+- - -- Last evening, between ten and eleven o'clock, a delibe rate and most determined attempt was made by a young man, named James Murphy, living at 8, Russell-street, a market salesman, to murder a young woman, named Mary Ann Jennings, barmaid to Mr. Loader, of the Red Lion, at the corner of Russell-street and the Piazza, Covent garden. Murphy had been - courting Miss Jennings for some years, and it is stated that there had been an engage ment which she had broken off, and that the disappoint ment had exasperated him to this act of violence. LaSt evening Murphy was seen waiting about near the Red Lion for the return of Miss Jennings, who had gone out for the evening./He was noticed in front of the house about nine o'clock by Rodgers, P 89, .on duty (in Private clothes) in the Piazza. • Shortly after ten Rodgers saw him with her 9pposito the house. He was dragging her towards the market, and a young woman who had accompanied her home - was in the act of rushing into the house to ask for help. Witness hurried towards the spot, and found that 'Murphy had thrown Miss Jennings on the ground and him self upon her. He heard her say, " I will strike .you." Murphy replied, "No, you will not." Rodgers perceived that he was "working" with a sawing motion The in stant he reached the spot Rodgers seized Murphy and dragged him away from :his victim.. Her throat appeared to be cut, and her face and neck were covered with blood. She was removed to Charing-cross Hospital, where she was plttced under the care of Dr. Travers, the house-surgeon She had a gash across the upper part of the throat and the' jaw, cutting off a small piece of the ear. She had also a cut across the forehead. Her throat had been protected from .further injury by a brooch in the neckerchief. Her fingers Were cut, as if in an attempt to protect her throat. A razor, - supposed to be the instrument with which the - deed was committed, was found at Murphy's feet by the barman, who had hurried to the spot at the first alarm. When able to speak, the first thing Miss Jennings said was that ihe - hoped they would let him go. . EXAMINATION OF THE PRISONER AT BOW. - STREET (THIS DAY). ' James Murphy, aged 29, - a salesman in Covent Garden market, was .brought before Mr. Flowers, charged by POliceman Rogers, 89 C, with cutting and wounding Mary Anne Jennings with intent to murder her. • The prisoner appealed somewhat depressed, but perfectly cool and collected. • • Mr. Abrams, from the office of Mr. Goatly, defended. Sarah White—l live with my uncle at the Old Red Lion Tavern, at the corner of Russell-street, Covent Gar den. lam a single woman. The young woman and I went out together to visit her uncle at Regent's. Park. The young woman's name was Mary Ann Jennings, and she was a barmaid. When we got back at about 20 minutes to 11 o'clock, we met James Murphy, by the Bedford Hotel. He called her all manner of names, put his arm round her neck, and said, "You shall go with me." She said, " I shall not." He said, "You shall," and pulled a `knife from his waistcoat pocket. I think it was a white handled-knife, similar to that produced. He opened it. She then said she would go with him if he would let her go in doors first. .When he took out the knife, he said, "If you don't go with me I will cut my throat." He caught hold of her and dragged her from the Bedford Hotel to the cor ner of the Piazza. He pulled out the knife twice. The second time was when she said if ho would let her go in first. I ran into the house. I did not look back. By Mr. Abrams—He did not seem to put himself out much. When he pulled out the knife the second time he was more excited. I have known him three weeks. I believe they had kept company about nine years. When he said he would cut his own throat he did not appear so very excited. I have had many conversations with her about him. She has always expressed to me that ho ha s behaved with kindness and feeling towards her. William Winslade, barman at the Old Rod Lion—About 20 minutes to 11 last night Miss White ran in and told me that Murphy was pulling Miss Jennings about in the most 'disgraceful manner. I ran out and saw him struggling with her under the pillars of the market. I saw him with a razor in his right hand sawing at her throat in that manner [making a gesture]. I struck his arm and he dropped the razor. I said, " Oh, Murphy, what have you done." They were both on the ground, and he had his left arm under her neck. He jumped up, and looking me in the face said, " and you." I picked up the razor,•and brought it to the station, where I gave it to the sergeant. I was first on the spot. The policeman came up about a minute and a half after me. Cross-examined by Mr. Abrams—l have known him about eight months. When he jumped up I did not say a word to'him. He only said the words I have mentioned. He seemed quite cool. If he was excited I did not soe it. I said to Miss Jennings what is the matter?" She said, " Oh, Winslade," Mr. Loader is just behind, when Murphy said the words I have mentioned, but I cannot say whether he hoard them or not. Mr. Loader might have been 14 yards behind. The prisoner spoke with great violence. I am sure they were the words. To Mr. Flowers,--Ho said it as if , ho was angry at my having interrupted him. I don't think he had any against me. To Mr. Abrams- -During the last eight months ho has visited the house almost daily. We had words on one on clugon; and "for the last month have not been on the best terms. Police- constable Rogers, 89 F—About half-past 10 o'clock last night, I was on duty in plain clothes beneath the Piazza, Covent-garden Market, and' saw the prisoner standing with the witness White and another female against the Bedford Hotel. I saw the prisoner take Miss Jennings by the arm ; they appeared to be struggling to gether. As they were passing me I hoard the young woman say " I will strike you." The prisoner said " No, you won't ; no, you won't ;" and at the same kept pulling her along. As they were crossing the road to the market I saw Mr. Loader and the barman leaving the house and following them. I heard the barman say " Come along," and they ran on into the market. When they got there Miss Jennings and the prisoner were on the ground. I saw the barman trying to got him off her. I caught him by the nape of the neck and dragged him off her. As I did so I saw a razor lying at his feet beside a pool of blood. The barman picked it up and gave it to Sergeant Rogers. I have been on duty there for about a month. The prisoner used to go to the house every night, but for the last ten days I have seen •him waiting about outside, and have sometimes asked him what ho was waiting for. By Mr. Abrams—l have only known the prisoner by seeing him about the market for the last month. I did not hear any conversation. If ho said anything it was before I came up. When ho got up from the ground he did not say anything. I must have heard him if he did. I had hold of his collar all the time. Sergeant Rogers, F 17—I was on duty at about half past ten o'clock last night in the market, near Tavi stock-court, when I heard a scream and a cry of "Police !" in the market. I went to the spot alid found Jennings there. She was bleeding, and there was a pool of blood at her feet. A gentleman said, " That is him." I turned to the prisoner and took him by the collar. A man said, "He has cut her throat." He could hear that. Policeman Rogers, 89 F, had him by the collar. I told Rogers and another constable, 105 F, to get a cab and take her to the hospital. I took the prisoner to the station. He said, "She has led me a curious life, and now I have marked her." The prisoner was not at all excited --- Ho appeared rather pale—that was all. Until ho got to the station he never uttered a word. Mr. William Travers, resident medical officer Charing cross Hospital—l saw the young woman a little before 11 o'clock last night and admitted her to the hospital. She had an incised wound on the left side of the face, which extended from behind the ear, dividing the lobe, and ex tending across the check. One or two arteries were divided. She had also an incised - wound on the back of the left hand, which was not very severe. There was and had been _ _ considerable hemarrage—bleeding. The wound was ban daged and is going on wall. Unless erysipela s should set in the wound is not dangerous. Mr. Flowers inquired whether, from the place where the wound was, it might not have been more serious ? Mr. Travers replied that it might. The wound was such as might have been produced by such an instrument as the razor produced. The wound was clean cut. Mr. Travers pointed outlhat the edge of the razor was considerably knotched. Mr. Travers, havig examined the razor, said it was an instrument quite capable of producing the wound. He did not think that Miss Jennings would bo well enough to attend this week. Sho might if sho went on as favourably as she was now doing, but even then it might do her mischief. Mr. Abrams—Do you consider her out of danger. Mr. Travers—l do not consider her in danger at pre sent. Mr. Abrams said that after hearing the medical evidence, from which it appeared that the case assumed a less alarm ing aspect than might at first have been anticipated, he should feel it to ho his duty to ask for the admission of the prisoner to bail. Respectable sureties 'Would be found, and the prisoner was well known in the neighbourhood. Mr. Flowers did not think it right to make observations, but ho would call attention to the question he had put to Mr. Travers, a question which he considered very impor tant in reference to intent. He did not think ho could, con sistently with his duty, admit the prisoner to bail. BREAKFAST BEVERAGE.-lloMCCOp&thie practitioners, and the medical profession generally, recommend cocoa as being the most healthful of all beverages. When the doctrine of homoeopathy was first introduced into this country, there were to be obtained no preparations of cocoa either attrac tive to the taste or acceptable to the stomach ; the nut was either supplied in the crude state, or so unskilfully manu factured as to obtain little notice. J. Epps, of London, homoeopathic chemist, was induced in the year 1839 to turn his attention to this subje_t, and at length sucxeded, with the assistance of elaborate machinery, in being the first to produce an article pure in its composition, and so refined by the pert et trituration it receives in the process it passes , hrough, as to be most acceptable to the delicate ttornach. For general use Epps' cocoa is distin,uished as an invigo rating, grateful breakfast beverage, with a delhious aroma Dr. Hassall in his work, "Food and its AdulteraticTi,' , , says—" Coco a con t a i ns a great variety of important nutritive principles ; every ing re di en t necessar y t o the growthi cocoa sustenance of the body."

We wore again heavily supplied with foreign stock, for which the inquiry ruled heavy, on rather lower terms when compared with Monday last. The quality of both beasts and sheep was very middling. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing dis- tricts were only moderate, whilst those from Ireland and Scotland were limited. As to quality the supply was rather inferior. Prime Scots, short horns, Hereford; and Devons commanded a steady sale, at full quotations. Inferior breeds were dull, and rather cheaper. The top figures were 5s 2d to 5s 4d per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received about 1,500 short horns, &c. ; from other parts of England, 500 various breeds ; from Scotland, 38 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 200 oxen, cows, and heifers. The aggregate supply of sheep was rather extensive. Good and prime Downs and half-breds, as well as Leicesters and Lincolns, moved off steadily at full prices ; otherwise the mutton trade was somewhat heavy, on rather lower terms. The highest quotation for Downs was 6s 8d per 81bs. There was a fair number of calves on show. The de mand for them was inactive, nevertheless late currencies were supported. Prices ranged from 4s 6d to 5s 6d per 81bs. Prime small pigs were scarce and in request, at from 5s 4d to 5s 10d per Blbs. Large hogs moved off heavily, at from 4s 2d to 5s 2d per 81bs.

OBTAINING CHARITABLE CONTRII3UTIONS BY FALSE PRE TENCES.—EIizabeth Hemsley, who described herself as a cook, of Litehfiold-street, Rugeley, Staffordshire, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with unlawfully endeavour ing to procure charitable contributions under false and fraudulent pretences. Mr. William Copeland, of the firm of Copeland and Co., china warehousemen, Staffordshire and New Bond-street, said that on the 15th of April last the prisoner came to his place of business, 16, New Bond-street, and told him a very plausible tale, to the effect that she had been housekeeper to Mr. Spode, of Bugeley, Staffordshire, that sho had come up to London to sea her brother off who was going abroad, that her pockot had been picked at the railway station, and that in consequorde she was without means, and asked him to assist her. She asked for 155., but he gave hor a sovereign, beliering her story to be true. Ho after wards wrote to Mr. Spode, and received a letter from that gentleman, from which it appeared that the prisoner had ben some time ago in his service, but was discharged in consequence of her misconduct, and that she had been it gaol more than once, at d had subse quently much ann(yed Mr. Spode. He (Mr. Copeland) subsequently made liquiries, and ascertained that the pri soner had been to al the Staffordshire families in town with a similar tale, cbtaining and endeavouring to obtain charitable contribufons. An advertisement was then inserted in some of he newspapers, cautioning the public against the prisoner. Afterwards seeing a report in a local newspaper of a case lefore Mr. Mansfield, in which it ap peared that the prisoner had by a similar tale to that told him (Mr. Copeland) Jatained money from Col. Wetherell, he communicated wits the police, and on the prisoner being liberated from risen, after undergoing the punish ment imposed by MI Mansfield, she was again taken into custody. _ Henry Dawson, 31 A, said there were several other cases against the prisoner.ln answer to Mr. ayrwhitt, the prisoner s a id s h e h a d no questions to ask. . _ Dawson said thathe apprehended the prisoner that evening on her cominf out of the West m i ns t er B r id ew e ll, where she had been uidergoing three months' imprison ment. He told her tht she was charged with obtaining .£1 from Mr. Copeland of New Bond-street, by false pre tences, when she replid "Yes, I did have it, and I ex pected some one here ttis morning for me." He wished for a remand. The prisoner said she was guilty. She did borrow the money. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked vvhether anything was said about the money being lent ? Mr. Copeland said nothing of the kind. The prisoner, who has beenconvicted at this court, and at Marylebone, was then remolded. St. jamess Hall. The boys of the Duke )f York's School, with their excellent band, under ~ he sole direction of Mr. John Wilson, bandmaster, attended St. James's Hall, on Saturday afternool last (specially invited), to witness " The World of Vlagic," " Begone, Dull Care," and the Great Freud Giant, " Anak," who on that occasion made his fiat appearance in public. The whole of the boys, wth the band, marched round the "Colossus," shaiing hands most heartily, whilst the diminutive armylooked up with wonder and amazement on thi s owering monument of human nature. Up on thi s o ccasion Professor Ander son gave the f o ll ow i ng s h or a dd ress t o th e b o y s , all of whom we re d e li g h ted wi h the treat accorded to them : A welcome —her e ' s 1,3' Welcom e ! young sol d ers , t o thi s h a ll ; hand.

But let all hope thatpertee will reign, The sword aside b thrown, And olive branches Dng remain Entwin'd around e.ch Throne ! Anak, the Frenchmai, has totally eclipsed Chang, the Chinaman, fd height and size, and thus Professor Anderson a;ain stands prominent in his exertions to gratify and entertain his host of patrons. The hall was crowded to suffocation, but owing to the admiralle arrangement of the übiquitous Mr. Ninuao, De acting manager, the whole of the delighted aulience were enabled to see the giant without inconvenience. Professor Anderson's is certainly the greatest " show" in the metropolis.

Sh a k spere ' s "King John" will be produced on Saturday next, and there is every reason to expect it will be one of the finest illus trations ever put upon any stage. LYCEUM THEATRE.—After an unusually long recess, during which Mr. Pechter has been successfully porfo rming in the country, this theatre will reopen for the winter season on Monday, November G. A now drama will be produced on that night, called " Th e W atch Cry. " ST. MARTIN'S HALL.—The new "entertainers" of the Wosdin and Howard P aul type, Mr. Robert Coote, fromthe Palace,Poly Polytechnic, made i a very fa voura bl e fi rst appear e, and Mr. D arner C ape, from the Crystal anco at this hall, previous to a tour in the country. They will probably return to London during the winter, and submit their entertainment to more detailed criticism. In addition to the numerous attractions at pre sent in the entertainments at Canterbury Hall, there is a solo performed nightly on the cornet-a-piston, by Mr. J. C. Kent, who is composer of " The Charing-cross Polka" —a spirted composition, which is cleverly played. THE CAPTURE OF A BURGLAR AT BARBING.—At the Ilford Petty Sessions, on _Saturday, William Fairbank was again brought up on a charge of attempted robbery and assault at the White House, Barking, on Tuesday last, under the circumstances already published. At;the hearing on Saturday police-constable Moon said that he Lad tried one of the skeleton keys discovered on the prisoner, and found it would open the door of the bed-room in which the prisoner was found. Inspector Brice said he had had a number of men from other divisions to see the prisoner, but none of them knew him. The prisoner W as th en committed to take his trial at the Cent ra l C r i m i na l Court. The Prince and Princess of Wales The Princess of Wales, accompanied by Princess Hilda of Anhalt and Prince John of Glucksburg, and attended by 'the Hon. Airs. W.

Prince John of Glucksburg took leave of the Prince and Princess of Wales, and left Marlborough house in the evening for the Continent. Arrival of the Queen at Windsor. Her Majesty the Queen, with their Royal High nesses Princesses Helena, Louise, and Beatrice, and Prince Leopold, attended by Lieutenant- General Grey, Major-General Seymour, the Marchioness of Ely, Lady A. Stanley, Dr. Jenner, and Messrs. Sahl and Buff left Balmoral yesterday (Saturday) afternoon at 20 minutes to 1 o'clock en route for Windsor. The royal party posted by road to the Aboyne-station of the Deeside Railway, in the midst of a heavy fall of snow, which gave a very wintry aspect to the country. At Aboyne, the nearest station to Balmoral, a special train of 13 carriages, provided by the directors of the London and North-Western Railway, under the charge of Mr. Mason, assistant-general manager, Mr. Neele, the out-door superintendent, and Mr. Bore, of the latter line, was placed ready for the reception of the Queen and royal family on their arrival at the ter minus. Her Majesty and the Princess Helena on reaching the station entered the royal saloon, placed as usual in the centre of the train. At the back of this was a double saloon, reserved for the use of Princess Louise, a governess, and the Marchioness of Ely and Lady Augusta Stanley ; Lieut.-Gen. Grey and Gen. Seymour, with Dr. Jenner and Mr. Said, occupied the saloon next to it. Prince Leopold and Mr. Buff were in the double saloon in front of the Queen's carriage, the single saloon before the former being occupied by Princess Beatrice and attendants. With the exception of a first-class, reserved for the railway officials, the other carriages were set apart for the use of the Queen's dressers, ladies' maids, pages, and men servants, while the Royal fourgon, &c., was placed on a truck at the rear of the special. The Royal train, accompanied by Messrs. Mason, Neele, and Bore, left Aboyne at 2 30 p.m., on its way to the south. Aberdeen station, where the Scottish North-Eastern Railway commences, was reached at 332 ; the IBridge of Dun, 4 50, and Perth, 122} miles, at G 18 p.m. Here the first stoppage was made, 45 minutes being allowed for refreshments, and at 7 3 p.m. the journey was re sumed over the Caledonian line, the train reaching Greenhill at 8 19, Summit 9 SG, and Carlisle, where the London and-North-Western system commences, at 11 25, a total distance of 2732 miles having been run up to this point. Once more a stoppage was made, this time only for a quarter of an hour, in order that the Royal travellers might take some refreshments, and that the engines might be changed. Her Majesty left Carlisle at 11 40 p.m. the train passing over the London and North Western Railway, and successively arriving at Kendal Junction at 1 3 a.m. this (Sunday) morn ing, Boar's Head 2 34 a.m., and the Bushbury Junction of the -Great Western Railway at 4 55 a.m. At Bushbury Mr. J. Grierson, the general manager, with Mr. Tyrrell, the superintendent of the line, Mr. Spagnoletti and Mr. Armstrong, of the Great Western line, took charge of the Royal train, which passed Birmingham, 467 miles, at 5 29 a.m., reaching Leamington at 6 6 and Oxford at 7 20, at both of which places short stoppages of fire minutes were made. The remainder of the journey was rather wet, the rain falling pretty steadily. Culham, Reading, Twyford, and Slough were next rapidly passed (the Royal trai n , th roughout the journey of 580 f miles, keeping splendid time), and the special arrived at the *Windsor terminus of the Great 'Western Railway exactly to the minute named on the time-table, 845 a.m. Rain was still falling when the Queen entered the station, from which the public were excluded, none but the officials peing present on the platform, though a few spectators, whose loyalty not even the drizzling wet could damp, clustered near the entrance, and were well rewarded for their patience by obtaining an excellent view of what was going on. A few minutes before the train reached Windsor the Royal carriages were despatched from the Castle mews to the station. Her Majesty stepped from the saloon as soon as the train paused, and, followed by the rest of the Royal family, was received on the platform by Lieut.-General Grey, General Seymour, Mr. J. Grierson, and Messrs. Neele, Tyrrell, Besaut, and Matthews, and conducted through the private wait ing -room to the carriages, which in a few minutes with the rest of the cortege drove through the town and up the hill to the Castle, where the Queen arrived at 9 o'clock, the Royal Standard having been hoisted above the Round Tower as the special train passed over the Thames from the Bucks to the Berks shore. Apparently her Majesty and the Princesses were in the best health. The Queen wore mourning, but their Royal Highnesses Princesses Helena, Louise, and Beatrice, were attired in grey cloth jackets, dark dresses, and bonnets trimmed with blue. Her Majesty's journey was deferred from Friday to Sa turday, in consequence of the funeral of the Pre mier taking place on the former day. The Queen and Royal family, it is understood, will reside at Windsor Castle for about six weeks, Osborue and then will pay a visit to Dcember. SPIRIT OP THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. " THE SPECTATOR" ON THE NEW CABINET.--A Palmerston Ministry without Lord Palmerston will be about as strong as an arch without a keystone. It is not of much use to speculate onSaturday on a decision which by Monday must be made known to all the world, but of this one thing we are satisfied, that if Earl Russell has deCided to meet Parliament with a Cabinet unchanged except by the substitu tion of himself for Lord . Palmerston and Lord Clarendon for himself, he has ruined the best pro spect his party ever had of securing a large tenure of power, and carying out large reforms with the full support of the conntry. Such a Ministry will be. moribund before it has begun to live, will have: neither popularity, nor coherence, nor the power of securing both by vigorous initiative. 'Earl Russell may be and probably is deceived by the quiescence with which the country, ,accepted Lord Paluierston's Cabinet; but it was never' heartily liked. It was tolerated because Mr. Gladstone and Lord Palmerston himself were included within it, and because the inferiority of other men did but se cure to Lord Palmerston the dictatorship it was desirable he shoUld 'preserVe, but - it was never re spected for itself.- 'The co nstituencies simply bore with Sir CharleS Wood, and Sir George Grey-, and Mr. Cardwell, .:and-Mr. Cowper,' and Sir Robert Peel, and the rest of-the secondrate men, who under the careful censorship of the press and. occasional snubs from the House contrived to carry on the business of the' departments, but they never belieVed in them, and will witness their return to power without their chief with apathetic weariness. Mr.. Cardwell, with all his solid sense, has not succeeded in New Zealand, or the British - American Colonies ; Sir George Grey required two votes of the House to whip him into common sense in the matter of prison judge with and re-tries p r i soners as a p pe ll a t e with a jury of able editors ; Sir Charles Wood, though he can govern, Cannot defendhis Government, or conciliate the governed ; Mr. Cowper is , always trying to manage the only job the House is deter mined to resist, the improvement of property in South Kensington, and as to Sit Robert Peel, the Irish will make his removal their first condition. The constituencies are weary of it all, yet it is with: this dead weight upon his efforts that Mr. Glad stone is to face a House of Commons doubtful whether to worship or distrust. Who is to support him there ? He will be attacked every day of his life by debaters like Mr. Disraeli and Lord Cran bourne, men who can not only give wounds, but pour vitriol into the wounds they have made, and though himself more than a match for both, he can speak but. once a night. Face to face he is their master, but who is to prote c t hi s rear ? Si r Roun del' Palmer will have enough to do to neutralise Sir Hugh Cairns, Sir George Grey is no match for Lord Cranbourne, Sir Charles Wood simply exas perates an audience hungering for more light, and as to Mr. Cardwell, he is as useful as a 64 pounder in the field, irresistible if the enemy will only stand exactly within range. None of the subor dinates promise to become great debaters, and the real work, the daily labour of reply and explanation, and retort, and all the minor duties of leadership will fall on a man who can perform them all, but who has the organisation of genius, and can when overworked grow harsh and fretful. His one difficulty will be exaggerated as if on purpose, and the result will be in all probability that inces sant collision with the House on little points which shake a Government more than a great defeat. Mr. Gladstone will not be injured by the irritation of individual members, but the Government will, and the necessity of the hour is not merely Mr. Glad stone, but Mr. Gladstone as a centre of a strong administration. To risk a failure in a House in which Liberals have an overwhelming majority in order to consult the amour propre of two or three individuals, is a mistake of which Earl Russell, of all men, ought not to be guilty. He has turned out his colleagues often enough when the resulting advantage was his own, and might show the same indifference to political convenance when the inte rest is that of his country and party. Rather than do it he will, it is believed, sacrifice the popular affiance which would have given his Ministry the strength and the meaning which the country at heart desires. THE SATUTWAY REVIEW "ON TOM PAINE.--TOlll Paineis one of those writers who have been, as it were, I gibbeted by a not very remote posterity. Probably hardly any one opens his works ; no one takes the trouble to know much about his life ; -he survives in the memory of men as a kind of disreputable ghost, who, having ignominiously failed in an assault, as hopeless as it was wicked, on all that men hold most sacred, does not deserve even that slight amount of respect which would be implied in calling him Thomas. He is, and always will be, Tom—the wretched uneducated plebeian who dared to attack Church and State. In our days, indeed, he is chiefly an awful example. The ribaldry of Voltaire, the polished s neer o f Gibb on, and the coarse bru tality of Tom Paine, usually swing at one end of the see-saw, the other' end of which supports Locke, Boyle, and Newton, weighted also with appropriate epithets. Paine, however, once attracted great attention, and was a rea l live monster whom it was thought creditable to kill. Lady Hester Stanhope, if we are not mistaken, says that her uncle Pitt used to speak of him as being both very able and perfectly consistent •, and ho himself boasts, in the second part of the " Rights of Man," that between forty and fifty thousand copies of the first part had been sold in the United King dom. His works have therefore something of an historical interest, and it is worth the while of those who care for the history of past controversies to look a little into them. Paine's reputation, such as it is, rests upon three performances—" Common Sense," published in 1776 ; th e " Ri g h ts of Man, " in two parts, published respectively in 1791 an d 1792 ; and the " Age of Reason," in three parts, published in 1793, 1795, and 1807. Besides these, he published a variety of other pamphlets of much inferior interest, relating principally to the American politics of the day. His most considerable perform ances by far are those which we have named. Perhaps the most characteristic passage; in the whole of his works, and certainly the one which throws the greatest light on their nature, is to be found in the first part of the " Age of Reason." That strange performance was written under the solemn sanction of imminent danger to life ; for Paine, whilst he was writing it, expected to be guil lotined, and he was actually arrested within six hours after its conclusion. Towards the end of it he gives an account of his life and of the growth of his opinions, and this enables us to understand clearly enough what sort of man he was. "My father," he says, " being of the Quaker profession, it was my good fortune to have an exceeding good moral education and a tolerable stock of useful learning." He was sent to a grammar-school at Thetfard, but learnt no Latin, " because of the objection the Quakers have against the books in which that language is taught." He adds, " The natural bent of my mind was to science. I had some turn, and I believe some talent, for poetry." He gives, by the way, a singular specimen of his poetical gifts in a note to another part of the " Age of Reason," which contains an elaborate argument to prove that the Hebrew prophets wrote poetry. "To show that these writ ings are composed in poetical numbers, I will take ten syllables as they stand in the book, and make a line of the same number of syllables (heroic measure) that shall rhyme with the last word. It will then be seen that the composition of these books is poetical measure." He speaks of mathematics with the same awkwardness as of poetry :—" The scien tific principles that man employs to obtain the fore knowledge of an eclipse, or of anything else relating to the motion of the heavenly bodies, are contained hd chiefly in th a t par t o f sc i ence w hi c h i s ca i l e lc h, trigonometry, or the properties of a t r iangle, call naviea when applied to the study of the heavenly tndire b w c o t d t ie h s e , is called astronomy ; when applied course of a ship on the ocean, it figures drawn oflans of edifices, called d o t f o th th e e e m ar e t a h: when applied to the ccnstruction p dr tiO a n w ; n l b v when applied e a p a p n l d i ed compass,to t he its construction i se goefo geometry surement of any portion of t fine, it is the so u l o f it is called architecture ; it is called land surveying. In man speaks, w h e h n e surface appe science ;itis an eternal truth ; contains the mathematical demonstration of andwhich the extent of its uses is un k nown. " With this degree of education Paine com bined, from his early childhood, a profound aversion to Christianity as commonly understood. Thu Quaker doctrine of the Inner Light, and the Quaker contempt for- external authority, whether in books or men, as, being carnal ordi nances, l ay at the bottom of Paine's character, and led him by an easy transition to be a dogmatic Deist and Repub lican. He says himself :—" The religion that ap proaches the nearest of all others to true Deism in the moral and benign part thereof is that professed by the Quakers; but they have contracted themselves too much by leaving the works of God out of their system. Though I reverence their philanthropy, I cannot help smiling at the conceit that, if the taste of a Quaker could have been consulted at the creation, what a silent and drab-coloured creation it would have been." Su.ih was Paine; a vigorous, sturdy snob (the word must be excused, for it exactly describes the man), with a slight education, principally mathematical, with stong conscientious feelings of a narrow kind, and with a cr eed which led him to vehemence revolt against all established beliefs, and to cling of ato his own views with all the dog matist. General Humphreys, late of the Confederate Army, who was elected Governor of Mississippi by a ma jority of 10,000 over the Union candidate, has received his pardon from the Pvsitteut. -~ .~ Y- 411 ig me nd ner !t. or
