At the same time he regarded it as the one act which would confer distinCtion and honour on the name of the Emperor in future times. It was passed as an act of his alone, and not as the repeal of our Corn Laws was, affer the voice of the whole people. His lordship said he had confidence that now this discussion was begun it would not cease until the truths on which it was founded were carried home to the convictions of tho French people. Mr. Mall said he believed Chambers of Commerce had not until now felt their own power. They had all seen into the hollowness of the pretences put forward on this side of the water for an abrogation of the Commercial Treaty. It had, he contended, been largely beneficial to the interests of the commerce of this country He had no doubt that on the other side it could Le proved to have been almost equally beneficial to the French people. He believed the result of the Treaty would be that war between the two couatri: would be rendered impracticable.

Windsc» Castle may he visited on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fri days, by tickets obtainable at the Z:ora s Office, in the How parties will adjust themselves this session is not altogether clear. The land question, the colonial question, education, and the reductions all afford good ground for a •political struggle ; but we must wait until Mr. Disraeli's opening speech to know in what way he and his party will attack the Govern inent. The Pall Mall Gazette announces, however, that the Admiralty reforms are to be the cause of a contest. "Lord Halifax, Sir John Pakington, Mr. Henry Corry, and Sir John Hay, are now, we are informed, busily employed in getting up cases against the First Lord, which they intend to bring forward immediately after the reassembling of Parliament." So it is upon Mr. Childers that the grand onslaught is to be made. The colonial ques tion, which threatened not long. since to give us the most exciting political struggle, seems just now to be sleeping. But it is not dead. THE REDUCTIONS IN THE DOCKYARDS. Mr. Stansfeld, M.P. for Halifax, in his speech to his constituents, vindicates the present policy of the Government in effecting economical reductions by gradual and considerate means. Speaking of the discharge of dockyard artisans, the conduct of Mr. Childers is made to contrast favourably with that of Sir J. Pakington, who, in a fit of panic, we are informed, took on 1,724 hands, and soon afterwards discharged no less than 4,359, only 411 of whom were entitled to pensions; whereas under the present Government a reduction of about 1,600 has been effected gradually, and out of that number upwards of COO are entitled to, and are now receiving Os. per week. In commenting on this part of Mr. Stansfeld's speech, the Globe says the fact is that the 1,724 artisans taken on by Sir J. Pakington were taken upon special terms for a special service ; and when their work was finished they were discharged without pension, having no claim to any. But those being discharged at present have a legiti mate claim. MALLOW. Mr. Waters, Q.C., has retired from the contest at Mallow; and now Mr. Munster remains the only Liberal candidate to contend with Major Knox. This withdrawal is thought to deprive the battle of much of its interest. The writ has been received, and the nomination will come off on Saturday. During the last few days the ferment which augured so ill for the polling-day has materially cooled down, doubtless to the great satisfaction of the candidates, with whom electioneering has been an expensive amusement. THE LABOUR CANDIDATE. Outside Southwark the artisan candidate meets with substantial assistance. Several members of Parlia ment, it is said, contemplate signing an address to Mr. Odger, stating that they will he glad to welcome him as a colleague if the electors of Southwark return him. The different trade societies of the metropolis are getting up meetings in his favour. A sympa thetic meeting of the Lambeth working men is announced, and it is proposed to likewise get up au aggregate assembly of the Lambeth co-operative, trade, and friendly societies, for the purpose of "bringing public opinion to bear." At Dudley the mayor is raising a penny subscription, and so are other towns in that district. MR. AYRTON AND THE FLOWERS. Mr: Ayrton keeps his own counsel about the flowers in the metropolitan parks. He lets nobody know whether he intends to make reductions in this direc tion or not. One of his constituents has written to him, with perhaps a little presumption, asking whether the rumour concerning him is true. Mr. Ayrton's secretary has replied with simply an ac knowledgment of the letter containing the query. The press has throughout been so little well disposed towards Mr. Ayrton that he will keep it in the dark. VISIBLE UNITY. Surely Tuesday must have been a happy day for Dean Stanley. On that day he, who has so earnestly striven for the unity of the churches, entertained at Westminster the Archbishop of Syra and Tenos, and his suite. Three English bishops were present— London, Rochester, and Ely, and several gentlemen of note. In proposing the health of his guest, the Dean made a thoroughly characteristic speech. His allusions to the Church which the Archbishop repre sented were scholarly and apt. When he came to speak of unity, the Very. Rev. Doctor again enunciated that favourite idea of his—the nationality of churches. That said he "is the quality which the Greek Church and which the English Church have in common. They are both national Churches—both represent the genius of their country ; they can both look on each other, and on other Churches, without desire to con vert or absorb. What my predecessor said to the French ecclesiastics may still more truly be said to our distinguished Greek guests to -day. Thero ought to be no secret antipathies between Churches, for which no reason can be given, but lot every house sweep the dust from their own door.' We have our vocation, the Greeks have theirs. We have our faults ; they have theirs. Let us each do the best we can, and we shall be pursuing the best because the only pracitcable course, towards the attainment of our common end." SUAM CHURCHES AND LONDON CHARITIES. Sir C. E. Trevelyan, in a letter to the Times, calls attention to the abuses in connection with the Lon don parochial charities. He says that there are 68 different parish churches in a space of one mile in length and half a mile in breadth. The consequence is that the limited space which has been adopted as the centre of our national industry is con tracted by these use l ess s t ruc t ures an d t h e i r long disused graveyards. The tithe-rent charge and be quests tor the support of the clergy, and the far richer endowments applied to the decoration and maintenance of the churches, are, he contends, sheer waste. Tho parsonage houses, he complains, are converted into shops and the incumbents are absentees. The incumbent of one of the richest City livings, he states, resides at Bath, whence he comes by rail every Saturday for the Sunday morning service, and returns home on Monday. The celebration of Divine service he desig nates a sham for on Sunday the streets of the un inhabited city are deserted, and congregations do not exist for such a multitude of churches. It is true, he adds, that a weekly drama is acted in which paid officials, alinspeople, and charity children are made to do duty as congregation. The mockery of public worship, however, has come to such a pass that even this venal semblance of congregation is not to be had. The service is gone through in the presence of paid officials only. As a remedy for the evil, he suggests the reappointment of the City into parishes containing about the number of people found by experience to be best suited to ministerial super ! intendence. A NOVELTY IN THE EDUCATION MOVEMENT. A new and laudable feature in the education agita tion has been tried at Chester. A meeting of ministers of all denominations was held to discuss the subject, under the chairmanship of the Dean of Chester. Of course the Church of England and the Nonconformist ministers disagreed in their views; but everybody concurred in the opinion that the conference would do good. It was unanimously agreed that delegates from the League, the Union, and the Manchester Committee should be invited to attend a public meeting and explain the different schemes. The idea is a good one, for we are getting quite enough one-sided speechifying from the different parties. The League still pursues the demonstrative tenour of its way. The last meeting was at Stroud. Mr. Winterbotham, the member for the borough ? declared that a denomi national system would be injurious in EnglandL pd worse than injurious in Ireland. Sir W. Vulse said the present biblical lessons given in day schools never did anybody any good. A working Man adduced a rather strong argument kto working men) in foe= of the rating system and e e instruction no explained that a tax at 4d. in t the pound would only cost a Working . man rated.At 10,A. Bd. a year; and for that he could senklkie Whole Atinily "to school ; while by paying scheel pence at 2d. a Week, on an average of forty weeks in the year, he would have to pay Os. Bd. for each of his children. DISCUSSIONS ON EDUCATION AT DUNDEE. The educational question has been taken up t) earnestly at Dundee that the discussions of its good people on this subject have extended over three nights, during which much zeal and ability has been displayed by the various speakers. A. proposal was laid before the last meeting by Councillor Henderson for the adoption of the Birmingham League programme. To this Councillor Macdonald moved an amendment, supporting a compulsory system of national education, but urgin; the necessity for a separate Education Bill for Scotland, " adapted to the habits and wants of the people." The meeting was of opinion that the institutions of England might tolerate the principles of the League, but educational life in Scotland was moulded in different principles, which ought to be adhered to. YORKSHIRE MEMBERS ON RECIPROCITY. At the annual soiree of the Bradford Chamtet of Commerce, Lord F. Cavendish, M.P., and Mr. E. Mia 1, M.P., addressed the audience on Reciprocity. Ltrecl' CiavAnairth.Jii_jgovinz the Adoptionlpf Uwe 'FITE PATENT LAWS. At a meeting of the Manchester Patent Law Reform Association, Sir W. Fairbairn, Bart., the president, strongly denounced the attempt which it had been intimated would be made in the coming session to abolish the patent laws. He said it would be the signal for the destruction of practical science and the ruin of the inventor. Sir ltoundell. Palmer, Sir William Armstrong, Mr. Macfie, and others wished to carry out a system of something like free trade in patents. This, he contended, would be a mistake. Patents, above all things, would not flourish under a free trade system. Several other gentlemen supported the president's views. A com mittee was appointed to draw up a petition to Parliament embodying the opinions of the meeting. NATIONAL EMIGRATION LEAGUE. An appeal for help to the League is made by Mrs. Spottiswoode, of Aberdeen, and published by the Duke of Manchester, the president s in the hope that subscriptions will be forthcoming, to enable the League to afford help in such cases. It appears that upwards of one hundred families could be at once sent off from Aberdeen alone—respectable 'people, who got on well enough until the depression of trade, and are sober, willing, and industrious. - = EJECTMENTS IN IRELAND. • The Freeman's Journal says that as the meeting of Parliament approaches, the work of eviction is extending, " being pressed forward with such vigour that the tenantry of many parts of the country is likely to be annihilated before Parliament can interfere." The journal goes on to say that it has received a list of twenty-one families, number ing 138 individuals, who are to be " turned out," like so many offensive vermin, a few days before the delivery of the Royal Speech. In these particular cases we are informed that not one shilling of rent is due, and crime and outrage are unknown on the estate. SCOTTISH PERMISSIVE BILL ASSOCIATION. A large deputation of this association has bad an interview with the Right Hon. the Lord Advocate, at which his lordship said that the question of the repression of drunkenness, and of intemp erance s h or t o f drunkenness, was certainly the largest and most impor tant that can occupy the attention of the Legislature. The question of the means by which the wished for results were to be obtained was for the consideration of her Majesty's Government, and he would not fail to bring the matter, with the views of the deputation upon it, under the notice of the Msnistry. His lordship said that whatever difference of opinion might exist about the means for the attainment of the end, the end itself was one to which every good man who loves his country and his fellow-citizens must wish God-speed. THE ICING OF THE BELGIANS. The arrangements for handing the " Mayors' Address " to the King of the Belgians are progress ing. The casket to contain the address has been provided, and a deputation is to cross the Channel to present it. Mayors are of course requested to attend. The King offered to put a steamer specially at the command of the deputation ; but " that long sea voyage " from London was too m uc h f or th e contem plation of our municipal heroes, and the offer was declined with thanks—the deputation would take the shorter passage of the Straits of Dover. At Brussels the deputation is to be well feted. A royal banquet is to follow the ceremony of presentation ; and on the next night a ball will be given by their Majesties. After royal municipal honours, after the dinner at the palace, a feast will be given by tho burgomaster. In Bruisels, it seems, they do to those whom the Kin , thlighteth to honour, much as we do in this country. OCEAN TELEGRAPHY. The n»es, in an article on "Ocean Telegraphy," proposes to solve the problem—Will it pay to lay down costly lines between different countries ? The writer's view is in the affirmative. Ile says that on an avera g e a commercial message consists of thirty words. Sixteen words per minute is the rate at which t& message can be transferred and received, so that thirty messages can be sent in an hour. On accour t of the differences of time between distant parts 3f the earth, there can be no division of the tweny-four hours into day and night. The cabh. , s must be worked continuousiy by relays of clerks which would permit the transmission of 600 messages per day. At the present Atlantic price, he contends that a single cable to America might earn a possible revenue of £710,000. Continuing this pleasant view of the question, he says it might be confidently expected that there will be by this success a speedy lowering of charges. This will be followed by a complete chain of trustworthy tele graphs to India, China, Australia, and New Zealand, which would soon become a customary channel for the transmission of domestic news. i‘lany of the anxieties incidental to the separation of kinsfolk would be thus practically set aside for ever, VACCINATION. A medical journal quotes some facts in favour o the theory that small-pox may be eradicated from a district by careful vaccination. Ireland has lately been free from the disease, and in Dublin there has been but one fatal case within two years. Paris, on the other hand, is heavily visited by the terrible malady. The contagion is constantly propagated from one patient to another in all the hospitals of the capital, which has no small-pox hospital, nor is it subject to compulsory vaccination. 1 SALUTARY. A couple of " tradespeople " were rightly served in the bail court on Tuesday. A Mr. Ochso sought to recover £665 12s. 4d. for wearing apparel and ornaments supplied to a person who passed as a Miss Cooke, but whose real name was Mrs. Smith. Of the character of this lady, it is superfluous to speak. The articles in question had been supplied within the space of two years ending May 1860, and included such items as £2.5 for a velvet mantle, 05 for a velvet jacket, fifteen guineas for a dressing gown, £32 for a blue silk dress, &c. It was shewn in evidence that the defendant was assisted in a life of immo rality by the plaintiff's wife, who often accompanied her. The goods were supplied with the full knowledge on the part of both the plaintiff and his wife that most of them were specially designed for defendant's calling. The plaintiff accordingly lost his case. The judgment is highly satisfactory, for no. influence contributes so much to bring and retain women in evil courses as that of persons who make a profit out of their gains without sharing their danger or disgrace. THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PAWNBROEERS. TliciLiverpool magistrates have just given a de cision which deserves notice. They declare that so long as pawnbrokers take reasonable care of pledges they are not liable to pay for loss, should any article be stolen. Thus the broker is declared only the holder of a security , and nothing more. The property with which he is entrusted is in no sense his, and as ho cannot dispose of it, neither should he bear loss upon it caused by unavoidable circumstances. Of the law upon the subject lawyers only are qualified to pronounce ; but the common-sense equity in the judgment is apparent. Of course by the theft of the article pledged the pawnbroker loses all his interest in it; he cannot sue the pledger for the money tent. Part of the bog of Clonkelly on Lord Norbury's property in Tipperary has been shifted a considerable dis tance from its former position. This is the third time within a century that the "moving bog" has exhibited this phe nomenon of nature. 'Me Mayor of Dudley is promoting a penny nib scription in aid of Mr. George Odger'a candida.ure Southwark. The movement is said to bo attended with some success, and similar movements are protected in other parts of the district. Miss Garrett, the lady doctor, writes a lengthy letter to the Pall _Mil Garble in favour of the Contagious Diseases Acts. The different arguments against those measures are very carefully examined, but on the whole Miss Garrett decides in favour of the Acts. Intelligence has been received of the death of Mrs. Chambers, the wife of Dr. Robert Chambers, the well-known publisher of Edinburgh. 1)r. Chambers him self met with a serious accident a few days since, from the effect of which he is recovering. The Government will take possession of the tele graphs on the 29th of this month; but it is not intended to bring the reduced rates into operation until the sth of February. For the few days intervening between the aequisitionand the latter date, the public will be charged - - - ~~ NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF " ST. OLAVES: 7 Now ready, in 3 vols., A A R.
