The first was pre sented by Mr. Russell Gurney, and the second lip Mr. J. Stuart Mill : The penaitj for keeping a w dog without licence is .£5. The person in whose custody, charge, or possession, or in whose house or promises any dog shall be found or seen, is deemed to be the person who keeps such dog, unless the contrary is proved. Post-office orders or postage stamps for the duty may be remitted to the Collectots of Inland Revenue at Somerset House or Tower-hill, or Gresham House, Old Broad-street, with a statement of the name and abode- of the applicant, on receipt of which a licence will bl forwanlcd. Forms of application may be obtained at any post-office. Licenses may be obtained in London and its vicinity at the following places : Admission, ie. Catilo;,rne, ed. " The humble petition of the undersigned, showeth,—That your petitioners fulfil the conditions of property or rental prescribed by law as the qua lification of the electoral franchise, and exercise in their own names the right pertaining to such con ditions. That the principles on which the govern ment of the United Kingdom is based imply the re presentation of all classes and interests in the State. That the reasons alleged for withholding the exer cise 'Of the franchise from certain classes of her Majesty's subjects do not apply to your petitioners. Your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray your honourable House to grant to such persons as fulfil all the conditions which entitle to a vote in the election of members of Parliament, excepting only that of sex, the privilege of taking part in the choice of fit persons to represent the people in your honour able House. And your petitioners will ever pray, " MARY CHARLOTTE LLOYD. " HARRIET MARTINEAU. " ANNA SWANWICK," &C. Somerset House Collector's Office.

"The humble petition of the undersigned showeth, the exclusion of freeholders, householders, and rate payers legally qualified in every respect but that of sex from the power of, voting in the, election of mem bers of your honourable house, by depriving a con - :: siderable portion of the property, the industry, and the intelligence of the country of all direct repre sentation, is injurious both to the persons excluded and to the community at large. That women are competent both by law and in fact to carry on a business, to administer an estate, and to fill other positions which, both by investing them with in terests requiring political representation and by affording tests of fitness, are usually considered to give a claim to the suffrage. That the admission of such persons to the privilege of the franchise would be a measure in harmony with the principles of our representative system, while its beneficial effects would not be attended by any possibility of dan gerous political consequences. Your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray that any act for the Reform - of Parliament hereafter to be passed may contain provisions for granting the suffrage to women on the same conditions of property, rating, rental, or any other qualifications not dependent on such, value on which it is or may be granted to men. And your petitioners will ever pray. " EMMA WINKWORTII. " LYDIA E. BECKER. " JACOB BRIGHT," &C. The Eastern Question. The Journal de St. Petersburgh, of the 23d March (April 4), publishes the following : " A telegram from Constantinople, dated yester day, announces. that the Sublime Porte has not accepted the advice to cede the Isle of Candia to Greece. Below will be found, under the head of Great Britain, the passage of the speech delivered by Lord Derby last Thursday in the House of Lords, in which he explained the motives which have prevented the Queen's Government from giving, at Constantinople, like the other powers, the advice that it would be desirable that this cession should take place. Lord Derby, moreover, declared that if the Sultan voluntary consented to this annexation. England would not have any objection to make. The Christians of Candia will c Itainly be touched by this condescension, but the Sublime Porte will not be leiis so by the solicitude evinced by the Foreign Office for the absolute independence of its authority and the pre-occupation of Lord Derby for the condition in which the Mussulman minority would be placed iu Crete if the governing power should be Christian. There arc countries in which the title of honorary citizen is conferred by the people on those to whom they wish to show their gratitude ; this is not, that we know of, the custom in Turkey, but perhaps it might not there be con sidered a dangerous reform, or one requiring much time to carry out, to confer the dignity of honorary Mussulman, and iu that case the candidature of the Engli6h statesman would be a matter of course, and his success could not fail to be triumphant. " But we must speak seriously on grave matters. We ask ourselves by reason of what strange illusion advice given to Turkey can be construed into an attack upon her rights ; how there can be anything contrary to the well-understood interests of the Ottoman Empire in a step which has for its object to prevent the continuance of sanguinary catas trophes, to worthily repair the past, and to prevent a domination already so much shaken and so odious from breaking down under an effort which would scatter the debris far beyond the coasts of the in surgent isle ? " There are three points too much lost sight in London—first, that the Christians have risen in consequence of a long and intolerable oppression ; secondly, that they have been cradled in hopes which have ail turned out mere deceptions ; lastly, that they form a majority which the governing minority keep under a heavy yoke because they dread its emancipation, and because the prejudices of fana ticism add to this fear. 14 The British Cabinet says it is not convinced that the proposed annexation would be definitively favourable to the prosperity, the satisfaction, or the well-being of the Cretan population. Would it be more favourable to those interests of which it shows uneasy, notwith s t an di ng th e ex itself so generously pressed wishes of the population ; would it be more favourable if there remained but the Mussulmans with the women and c'iildren after all the rest had fallen under the blows of the Turks ? " England, according to Lord Derby, wishes to treat Turkey as a friend. Is she quite certain that the rigorously-reserved attitude which she main tains. is dictated by an intelligent and provident friendship—by that friendship which knows how to tell the truth at the risk of displeasing, which is the only friendship worthy of the name ; and not by a friendship which, putting carefully aside its respon sibility, spares its egotism the trouble of all advice, holds itself apart in evil days while professing a sympathy that remains sterile, and -confines itself to reserving for the morrow of accidents or misfor tunes its sincere condolence. " 'What the friendship of England is most par ticularly careful of is, not to oppose Turkey in any thing. This will certainly please Turkey for the moment; but, since the Orientals are fond of apolo gues, may we be allowed to transport them for a moment under the torrid sky of the equatorial re gions ? A planter--we are in a country in which slavery still exists—walks across his domains in company with his friend, who is the English consul, a man of influence, whom he likes to consult, and regards as a .model, and of whom he respectfully envies the high position, the knowledge, and the capacity. The planter walks about smoking with non chalance. He beats his negroes according to custom, and ill-treats them in every way. His friend smiles whilst asking himself, in pato, if the planter is not. a little too sharp. Meanwhile, as the brutal fanta sies of this capricious proprietor have been long con tinued, his negroes at length revolt. The planter calls the police. The friend retires into a pavilion close by and looks on. The struggle continues and the planter falls. The friend retires, recommend ing his people to bury him decently, and sheds a tear to the memory of one whose individual liberty he would not cross even by advice. " What will be thought at Constantinople of this friend? Will it not be considered that the indivi dual liberty of the planter was too much respected, and that wise counsel given in time would not have done him any great harm, and perhaps might have pointed out to him the means of still exercising for a long time his free will if this prudent advice had ' .•••• are not altog e . 46 er banished even from the horrors of war. ',,,.- 1., NATURE AND ART. NO. ll.—This beautiful work continues to maintain its high character and to display the wonderful skill of our illustrative artists. Among the literary contents is a paper which will excite a melancholy interest. It is on " The Fate of Livingstone," by T. Baines, F.R.G.S., late artist to the Zambesi expedition. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ---,0.-- NEWMARKET CRAVEN MEETING. WEDNESDA Y. As the morning was fair and calm it. was thonght that the sport on the third day of the meeting would be of a more enjoyable character than that seen on Monday an a l Tuesday, and for some two hours after noon matters w very favourable on the heath. After this, however. th e wind began to blow, and before the close there were some smart showers. The list for the day was rather • teagre, and the company mainly composed of professional betters, the bookmaking portion of whom had again the best of the speculative movements. To cornmehce with, Eau do Vie, the non-favourite at 2 to 1, succeeded in giving Roll Call 151 b over the last half-mile of the Beacon Course, and the Brocklesby running at Lincoln was thus borne out; but Veda, who was backed against the field for the succeeding taco, began badly, and could never get upon terms with Lictor and Bouquetiere, the prize going to the first-named, said to be as good as Litnner, though, as he was behind Paris at Epsom, he did not appear like it on public form: Doubtless his victory had something to do with the fa. vourP,isna accorded to Paris for the T.Y.C. Sweepstakes, for which he stood no chance with Confederate and Court Card, nor could Problem or Celliva bowl over Hippia for the following race, though Mr. Chaplin's filly made a fair fight. Some interest was excited by the appearance of Cellina, who came out for the first time since she ran Her mit to a neck last year. After that performance, it will perhaps be remembered, she got " cast" in her stable, and received some severe injuries, no traces of which, however, were apparent to-day, although she looked big and un trained. The "roaring" Pericles gave a further taste of his quality by running away with the Subscription Plate, and then a close finish was witnessed between Wild Agnes and the Annie Laurie colt for the Subscription Plato, the young one winning, as he ought to have done, considering that he had four stone the best of the weights. The last contest was for the Column Stakes, which brought out a couple of brutes, of whom this filly by Wild Dayrell, out of Emily, proved the best. During the day there were again some important movements in connection with the Two Thousand and Derby, and before a move was made to the course there was a strong demon stration in favour of Tho Hermit for the Rowley Mile race, 7 to 1 being taken right out, while Knight of the Garter was friendless at 1,000 to 30. Later on Mr. Chap lin's colt fluctuated between 6 to 1 and 8 to 1, and the other operations on the race were noticeable for the dispo sition evinced to back Julius and Plaudit (900 to 200 was taken three times about the Duke's horse), and to bring Marksman to something like a price-8 to 1 was taken and offered about the latter, and after 1,000 to 60 had been taken about Trocadoro, 1,800 to 100 was offered against the French colt, but by one of the " foxes" connected with the stable. The Rake was very firm for the Derby, and there we isireoaffrgerusis of HastingstotakeloO offered to bet i3O to7oagst Plaudit, about to 8 abonto threewhothe times. D'Estournel was kbacled by Mr. Savile at 30 to 1 late in the afternoon, after refusing those odds in the morn ing. Subjoined is a return of the running : Match : 100 sovs, h ft; both two-yr-olds.

After some delay at the post, Lictor and Bougetiere on the upper ground, Morning Star in the centre, and the Newcastle colt on the lower ground, jumped off in front and maintained the command to the foot of the hill, when the latter gave way, and Veda, who began badly, joined the others, and passed Morning Star in the cords. Hera Lictor held a clear lead, which he maintained to the finish, the flat being a length in his favour, while the favourite was half a length behind Bon quetiere ; Bond was fourth, Purveyor fifth, and Morning Star nest; and Harebell, who was outpaced from the com mencement, a long way in the rear.

In the cords the latter succumbed, and Court Card took a slight lead, but she was caught by the favourite in the last three strides, and beaten a neck, Lytham being two lengths off.

GENTLEMEN, — THE death of Mr. Hanbury has deprived you of 11 the services of a highly-esteemed Representative in the House of Commons. .... For the vacancy thus sadly and unexpectedly occasioned I venture to offer myself as a Candidate. There are many among you, I flatter myself, to who:n my name is not uuknowu as a zealous supporter of the Liberal cause, and at this important crisis I hold it essen tial that any candidate presuming to ask for the suffrages of such an important and thoroughly Liberal constituency as that of Middlesex should be able to give trustworthy assurances of his devotion to the principles which they have at heart. Should you do me the honour to return me to Parlia ment it would be my first duty to co-operate with those who desire to effect the passage of an honest and straight forward measure of Reform—such a measure as would prove to the large body of artisans and working men, whom I hold to be entitled to the franchise, that the House of Commons is not afraid of the people, nor averse to the free extension of political privileges, nor disposed to deny to the intelligent operatives a share in the government of the country, to whose burdens they are called upon to contri bute. If the Reform Bill proposed by the Tory Ministry be not capable of adaptation to such an end, I should not hesitate to give my adherence to any course which may seem the most calculated to attain the desired object. Respect to the memory of your late Representative will not allow me for.the next few days to take any further steps to bring myself before the Electors, but 1 shall take the earliest possible opportunity of meeting you in public and giving you a detailed, and I trust satisfactory, account of my views upon all the important political topics of the day.

HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52, leet-i.treet,, has introduced an entirely new cesertp tion of ARTIFICIAL FEET 11, 11 xtd without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly re-cmb e the natural teeth as not to be distinguished fro a the originals by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require ti,e extraction of roots, or any pain ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful In mastication. 152, neet-strect. At licme trcut 10 till b. .7 PRICE.... 4d.

" Complaisant friendship is but a danger. This is an old truth in all latitudes. "The Sublime Porte has justified the previsions of Lord Derby, who did not think it probable that the advice of the Powers would be accepted. She continues the struggle. We must be excused from endeavouring after this time to explain the possible consequences of the resolution she has taken. Can dia, remains the theatre of a war of extermination. The Sublime Porte desires that her will shOuld pre vail over the wisdom of the Powers who advise her. She believes herself strong enough to didain their sympathy. This will be found henceforth more fa vourable to the cause of the Christians. " In presence of England preserving an impas sable absolute neutrality, Turkey has refused, in the obstinacy of her fanaticism, to yield to the advice of the powers, whose union showed her their disinte restedness, and ought to have proved to her their wisdom. Whatever may arrive, sbe takes upon herself all the responsibility of the future—we can scarcely bring ourselves any longer to wish that it tiny be light ; there is a limit beyond which blind ness ceas•=s to be an excuse." TILE MAGAZINES. DUBLIN.--" Never for Ever" is continued, not very satisfactorily, however, for the engaging little heroine is married to the captain, and soon we shall see clouds appear in the horizon. This tale is told in a very pleasing manner, and presents us with some pictures of life that are attractive from their truth and pathos. " Number Five Brooke-street" is concluded, and the extraordinary heroine again goes out on the world to seek her fortune. The story is very ably written, though the chief charac ters do not deserve much respect. " Two Portraits —A Satirist and an Actor" is a paper that is certain to meet with approval, for it is well done in every respect, and contains much to deserve notice "The Tenants of Malory" are continued at some length, and though the story is very complicated, the skill of the author, in elucidating mysteries, is as striking as ever. " The Libraries of the Middle Ages and their Contents" is a paper for antiquaries to delight in, as they can dwell upon the various accounts met with. Some pleasing verses are also met with ; one en titled " Spring," a most appropriate title just now, and the other, "My Violet," a mournful sketch of old times. " Superstitions and Legends of the North of England" contain a good deal to edify and entertain, with their quaint styles and the curious interpretations put upon things. " The Minor Brethren" is a paper that is carefully written, and may be attractive to some on account of the information it imparts, as to the lives and acts of men who played an important part in the world's history, perhaps all the more for not being very prominently brought forward at all times. CORNHILL.—" The Claverings" approaches com pletion, and we learn in this number what happened off Heligoland. The rector of Clavering is now the owner of the park, and certainly a far more deserv ing one than Hugh or Archie. These men, who it is to be feared represent a large portion of the world, were not such as to be regretted by any. As it is well put, " What had either of them ever done to merit a good word from any man? and to earn the love of any woman I doubt whether either of them had ever contributed in any way to the comfort and happiness of any human being." Lady Algar presents a striking warning to those who persist in sacrificing them selves to obtain a position, which, when they have got it, they are unable to enjoy. The readers of this magazine will be sorry to miss this entertaining story from its pages. Its incidents are not re markable, but its pictures of everyday life are very well described, and there is altogether something attractive about it. " A Week in a French Country House" is brought to a conclusion. The accounts of this visit are very pleasingly given, and the sketch forms a decided contrast to the subjects we generally meet with in periodicals. " Life in a Military Prison" is an article deserving of attention, and, as the writer sass, its perusal may afford some useful hints to the next Royal Commission that considers the subject of recruiting the army. Those who read this will be surprised to hear that limited service men will not re-engage. It is said that "if the punishment of the British soldier be not mitigated and pen sions augmented, the day is not far distant when to recruit the ranks British factories and work shops will have to be decimated by the conscription." " The Golfer at Home" is an amusing sketch, that is sure to win notice from some readers. " Mar tial Law and Military Law" will be perused with attention just now, in consequence of the recent discussions on the subject. " Don Quixote's Country" is a lively well-written paper. K onigsmarks and Marshal S axe" furnishes us " The th y st , some the h reminiscencesha,sleftsome t o r a f e t ttn n r g e:o i s r h d: d of f a a l m m i o l every State in Europe." MACMILLAN. —Mr. Henry Kingsley's powerful story of " Silcote of Silcotes " continues in as quaint and original a style as ever. The chapters before us chronicle some events that closely affect the dramatis persons. Mrs. Norton's " Old Sir Douglas" disappears again after the mysterious 'fashion he had previously adopted, and the reader must wait patiently for another instalment. In its place there is a graceful little tale of Algerian life, by Mr. Beltham Edwards. " Liberal Education" is a topic of very wide inte rest, and it is well discussed in the paper under that head. " Charles Lamb," always a delightful sub ject, gives his name to another paper, and " Volun teer Hospital Nursing" is treated of by no less an authority than Elizabeth Garrett, F.S.A. Other papers of varying interest and merit are to be found in what is a more than usually attractive table of contents. THE ARGOSY has several amusing and suggestive papers, and has, we think, improved in style and character. " Improving Conversation" is a humorous sketch, not without a meaning, and a chapter on " Habits," by the author of " Margaret and her Bridesmaids," will apply more or less to us all. " The Doctor Ouofrio" displays all Mr. Gilbert's peculiar powers, while " Rubens in Paris," by the author of "Citoyenne Jacqueline," and "A German University Town" are both worth reading. -TEMPLE BAR.—A new story by the author of " Archie Lovell" will be a welcome sight to the readers of I einple Bar, and it promises, so far as we can judge from the opening chapters, to provide plenty of interest. It appears to be more of the regular novel than the history of the charming a nd foolish little Archie. " Marrying a Ghost," though bearing an alarming title, is a very innocent love story, and the blunder is amusingly described. "The Lame Landlord's Story" has the claim of originality, though very brief and simple. " and Fire Brigades" form the subject of an ani mated paper; while "Bad Winter Weather in England and Canada" certainly affords a very strong contrast to its neighbour. " How the Lion Stocks his Larder" and "Qur Marketing in Guern sey"'are among the best of the remaining contents. THE MONTIL—Lady G. Fullerton's historical romance proceeds with all its accustomed vigour. Tile storms around poor Queen Margaret thicken rather than lighten as her life goes on. " Early Days of the Paris Police" furnish some curious de tails. " Scenes in Teneriffe" transport us• to new and delightful scene r y . " Victor Cousin and E c lecticism in France" are ably discussed, and a record of Christian charity in the campaign of 186 G comes } h appily to remind us that love and charity NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF " CASTE."
