HE BRITISH CHURCHMAN, The November Number Will show subscribers that the Literary Staff of this periodical is quite prepared to encounter all the enemies of the faith. Whether on Geological and other Scientific questions or Biblical Criticism, or on the subjects assailed .by the stump and revolutionary oratory' of the mere atheistical and blaspheming demagogue, and. by which many of the humbler classes are so much misled, and that the Colensos, Iconoclasts, and other enemies without, - or heretics claiming a position within the Church, will be met with direct and vigorous refutation. We' are proinised a special set of strictly Scientific Articles on Geology, Natural. History and Astronomy, dtc., in refutation of scientific error in connection with Theology, and also on questions raised by Dr. Colenso and others, which have not yet received competent answer. At the same time all candid opponents, misled by false teaching, but sincerely inquiring after truth, will be treated with forbearance and respect, and willingly aided in their search.

Now Published, A WINrER, JOURNEY TO ROME AND BACK, WITH AN ACCOUNT OF THE OPENING OF THE (ECUMENICAL COUNCIL, AND GLANCES AT _ _ MILAN, FLORENCE, NAPLES, POMPEII, AND VENICE. • BY WILLIAM EVILL. STANFORD, Charing Cross. Price 4s. 6d. "-Mr. W.:Evill has written a lively and agreeable account of 'A Winter Journey to Rome.' His descriptions of scenery in the Alp's and of the Italian cities are exceedingly graphic, shewing much sympathy with nature, and a refined intelligence, Though the style of the book is somewhat sketchy, it is thoroughly readable, especially in the passages referring to ,the Council, which have in some degree the value of contemporary history."— Daily Telegraph. - "Those who have followed the well-known route, and visited the spots described by Mr. Evill, are scarcely likely to add much to their fund of information by reading his lively sketches ; yet we are far from saying that the publication is superfluous. To gain knowledge is not the only object which induces a man or woman to take ap a new volume ; and if Mr. Evill does not add distinctly to our stock, he has the art — a rare one—of placing familiar scenes in a fresh and agreeable light. . . . . The book has the merit of being thoroughly readable."—Pall Mall Gazette. "Baying read the book through from cover to cover—of itself an eulogium from any reviewer—we could certainly not spare. Mr. Evill's always animated, often graphic, and more than once or twice really eloquent descriptions, any moro than we could spare his account of the wonderful pageantry of the Papal func tions in Rome, and of the marvellous masterpieces in sculpture and painting scattered among the Palaces and Basilicas. : . . As a graphic delineator of the superb scenery and the renowned cities through which he made this winter journey, -he has acquitted himself admirably well."--Sun. " The author has evidently a feeling for the beautiful and the picturesque, and describes what he saw in forcible and some times eloquent language. .. . Notwithstanding his well worn subject, Mr. Evill has produced an agreeable little volume, which may not unprofitably detain the reader."—Daily News. " There is no pretension whatever about the book of travels, and though it relates very little of what is new, it tells of nothing that is uninteresting, vapid, or dull. To the truthfulness of its descriptions of places and works of art we can thoroughly testify, and assure our readers that such of them as are meditating an Italian tour could not possibly do better than furnish themselves with a copy:"—Bell's Weekly Messenger. " hfr. Evill's visit to Rome was opportunely timed to enable him to witness the great gathering of prelates in attendance at the opening of the (Ecumenical Council ; his journey was accomplished with great rapidity, but his hasty en route sketches are lively and amusing."—Record. " In this pleasant little book we have an abundance of inter esting matter, such as a professed bookmaker might extend into the compass of two goodly volumes. . . . . In the very first page we are satisfied with the book, and are engrossed with its contents We recommend the entire little volume as well to readers as to intending tourists in search of continental' information."—News of the World. " The ground was all new to Mr. Evill, and, in spite of the season of the year, he saw it under peculiarly favourable cir cumstances. He has an eye quick to see, and a pen that enables him to tell right pleasantly, and not a little vividly, what he has seen. . . . . Mr. Evill was fortunate enough, in company with his friend, Mr. Charles Kent, the poet, to see the pro cession in St. Peter's, on the opening day of the Vatican Council. His description of it is very graphic."--Western Morning News. "Italy has been described to the reading world again and again, and, therefore, the charm of Mr. Evill's book is not the charm of novelty, but it has a charm. There is a fresh, inge nuous manner, that appeals to the reader. The author records his impressions and describes minutely the beauty of the Italian• scenery without a thought of the travellers who have gone before. Some passages, descriptive, are really excellent. The exterior and interior of Milan cathedral are put before us in glowing terms, and the long ceremonies of the opening of the (Ecumenical Council are forcibly described.' Ills description of Venice is excellent. Mr. Evill's word-painting is far above the average of such descriptions. We are sure that readers, after a perusal of this book, will have a vivid impression of the scenery described, and be grateful to Mr. Evill for his pleasant recallec tions."—Lloyd's Weekly News. " Accuracy of description will cause this little book to be read, and probably enjoyed, by those Englishmen and English women whom necessity keeps at home year after year . . • The profits are to be given to a charity, and we heartily wish it every success, and think that many untravelled Englishmen will find something to interest them in Mr. Evill's Winter Journey to Rome.' —The Examiner. " This little volume, containing, together with careful descrip tions of places and cities, an account of the opening of the (Ecumenical Council, it is worthy of notice, is dedicated, not in irony or without permission, but in friendship and with full authority, by a Protestant to a Roman Catholic. There may be many worse preparations for a visit to the eity which still - is queenlike, if no longer queen, than a perusal of this unpreten tious, but instructive volume ; and the author's remarks touching that Church, the services and worship of which serve to make up the entire life of modern Rome may grieve, but will not affront, a liberal Roman Catholic, and may command the assent, but will not shock the better feelings, of a Liberal Protestant."— Illustrated London News.

A correspondent - of the Tones ; writing from Philadelphia on October 26, says Senator Morton has this week definitively declined, the American mission to London, He thanks the President in warm language for the mark of distinguished favour in tendering' him the London Mission. Again, therefore, this important post goes a begging, and Mr. Motley is retained in office. The President has 'not yet sele,cted a new candidate, nor is anyone indicated for the place with any, certainty,' The extremely bad positi 911 into which this English mission has got is clearly traceable to the lack of any trained diplomatists in this country, and the fact that Ambassadors are bothappointed and removed with out any refeience to their.fitness, but merely forVp,itiian objects. - 'MR.

THE REMARKABLE CHANCERY SUIT. THE LORDS JUSTICES' JITDGIVIENT. In the Court of Appeal Lord Justices James and Mellish delivered judgment in the- remarkable suit of " Weston v. Weston," it being an appeal from the deci sion of the Master of the Rolls (Lord Romilly) by Mr. W.,H. P. Weston, a gentleman of large fortune, residing at Dorchester, who alleged that, in consequence of the adultery of his wife, the youngest daughter of- Sir John Lethbridge, with Mr. Andrew Quicke, subsequently to the execution of a separation deed, she had become disentitled to an allowance of one thousand pounds per annum. Lord Justice James delivered an elaborate judgment. Mr. Weston made *two allegations, first, adultery, long continued, shameless, open, avowed adultery long be fore the separation ; and secondly, adultery after the exe cutlon of the separation deed. But t he wife declined to rep y tothe first allegation, - on the ground that it was irrelavent, as the deed would only become void by sub-, seqnent adultery ; and she simply contented herself by giving a general denial to the charge, saying that it was falsb, and. that her acts had been grossly exaggerated. It seethed that Mrs. WeitOn had the strongest possible in ducement to restrain , her. - passion, if such existed, She had a pecuniary motive, as £l,OOO a year depended upon her conduct. It was true that Mrs. Weston, Mr.-Quicke; and- Miss Quicke, resided together at Boulogne and Paris, and that at the Grand Hotel in the latter place she went under the assumed name of Nucombe. But during that period the husband had his wife watched by day and, to a great extent, by night, .by the agents of a very active person—,a , kind of professional detective. Every exertion was used, and no expense spared to obtain evidence by Mr. Pollaky, Preprietor of the private inqiiry office at Paddington, whose success in his profes sion, without casting any imputation upon him, depended upon the ability he displayed in procuring information of a description to satisfy his employer. But not a par: tide of the evidence secured in this way was suffi: cient to establish adultery in a court of law. The case,' in truth, rested entirely upon the evidence of the lady's maid, Elise Lenlitte, who, the Master of the Rolls had said, was entirely unworthy of credit. He (his lordship) had arrived at the conclusion that it would be utterly unsafe for any court of justice to place the slightest reliance upon the testimony of such a person. He said nothing about her supposed impro priety of conduct, or about the zeal she displayed in try ing to get evidence. But she had giuen an account of a draMatic scene between herself and Mrs. Weston—a scene in Which, apparently sympathising with the lady, whose confidante she was, she appealed to her to break off the intimao with .Mr. Quicke, and endeavoured to extort from her from her an expression which might he construed into an adniiision of guilt. Finding that at the tithe she was going through with this scene; she was in communica tion with Mr. Weston or his solicitor, of course utterly unknown to - the mistress, that scene was in itself an act of a faithless, treacherous, cunning, hypocritical, person; and that being the conclusion he bad arrived at upon. her own description of her con duct, he would not pronounce judgment against anybody, upon any . charge. whatever, upon the faith of her evidence. Under those circumstances his lordship was of opinion that thenharge of adultery, subsequently to the separa tion had not been substantiated. tord Justice Mellish concurred, and the decision of Lord Romilly was consequently affirmed, the appeal being dis missed with costs. A woman, named Ainscough, of Bolton, while endeavouring to cross the Lancashire and Yorkshire line at Adlington on Tuesday was knocked down by an express train, and instantaneously killed. Her body was fearfully mutilated. BREECH-LOADERS FOR THE VOLUNTEERS. — The now old-fashioned muzzle-loading weapons in the possession of the 19th Surrey (Borough of Lambeth) Rifle Volunteers have been " called in for conversion." This corps has lately been recruiting very successfully, and is now one of the most efficient metropolitan regi ments on the south side of the Thames, which is probably the reason the War Office has selected it as the first in which this long-desired change will be made. THE IMPERIAL FAMILY OF BRAZIL. Tho Princess Imperial and Count d'Eu, prevented as yet by the stase of the Continent from paying their proposed visit to Germany and going to Italy for the winter, remain for the present with the Due de Nemours at Twickenham, and were a few days ago received at breakfast en famille by the Prince and Princess of Wales at Marlborough House. The visits of his daughters to Europe will, it is almost certain, be followed by a visit of the Emperor to Europe in the course of next year, should public affairs in Brazil and the state of the Continent permit his Majesty to indulge his natural wish to see Europe for the first time.--Brazil and River Plate Mail. THE WOOL INTEREST OF THE UNITED STATES.— At a meeting of the American Institute, held on the 13th ult., the Hon. J. L. Hayes, secretary of the National Association of Wool Manufacturers, read a paper on the wool interest. From this we gather that the woollen manufactures of the States are of the annual value of 175,000,000 dols., employing about 120000 operatives, and using the fleeces of 35,000,000 sheep. The annual value of the wool of the world is calculated at 600,000,000 dais., and of that about 71,000,000 dols. worth is grown in the States. CHARLES MATHEWS AT ADELAIDE.—The versa tile architect, painter, playwright, comedian, who has so gaily upheld the honour of the English stage for five and thirty years, ought to be received with peculiar interest in this four-and-thirty years' city. Before Adelaide was founded he had'achieved the position he holds now, and while Adelaide has been growing the fame of Charles Mathews has been extending among all English-speaking communities. It has at last reached us in the flesh, and - the reproach would be ours if it failed of a hearty, en thusiastic recognition.—South Australian Register. Sept. 10th. DISABILITIES OF DUELLISTS.—A member of the Virginia Legislature the other day was challenged to fight a duel. Time was, when such a cartel would have fallen upon him who received it as a live spark would fall upon a powder Magazine. But these times are changed. The receiver of the message happened to be a man in whom .. love o f political privileges dominates. He refused to accept the challenge, not because he had any scruples on the point of consciousness as a Christian man, but on the ground that the State Constitution disfranchises duellists. There is hope for a reconstructed 'South when such a State as Virginia has such a law on her statute books, and when there can be found in that State a citizen who is willing to yield obedience to such an enactment.—American Paper. TIM LIDICE ‘l. • DEFEAT AT COLCITESTEL—The London corrospondent of the Manchester Guar d ian writes —The defeat of the Ministerial candidate at Colchester is ndw known to have been due altogether to the hide fatigable exertions of the association for the repeal of the Contagious Diseases Act. Sir Henry Storks avowed him self ;before the committee of inquiry to have origina.ted the experinaunt-when. governor of Malta; and he ad mitted that he was in favour of putting the provisions of the. act into operation regarding the women of each r egiment—that is to say the wives and female servants of all classes in barrack or-camp. The Rev. Mr. Rule, a Disienting, minister, and Mr. Baiter Langley did the chief part of the speaking against the new 'Under Score tarY for War.; though both disclaimed any connection with or support of Colonel Learmouth, The same writer sayS Newport seems 'likely' to be lost to the Liberals by the obstinacy of the competing candidates.

TEIE EDUCATION Q,UI4_:STION The Guardian finderstands that the Education Depart ment. has definitively azelited the arrangement proposed by the National Society, that in lieu of the old Con science Clause there shall be' inserted in trust -deeds the first three paragraphs of the 7th clause of the Education Act of 1870, with the proviso that such paragraphs of the clause may be at any time-expunged from the deed upon the managers of the school repaying to the Treasury the amount of the governMent grant for building. All schools, therefore, now is .r.aurse of erection can. at _once.avail themselves of theSe' terms, and so procure grants from the Education Department and froth the National Society. But we believe that tho,_,Edueation, Department has been unable to accede to the suggestion of the National Society that a like proviio , - should be endorsed on the deeds of existing schools containing a conscience claUse, so thatia litioriCEs6ls may ellitallEed to receive assistance from both sources. As this cannot be done by the Edu cation Department, in the case of such schools needing enlargement;thongh they-will be able to obtain pecuniary help from Government, they cannot from the National Society. The number of .competitors for seats at the London School Board daily increases. Two more candidates are announced - for the Finsbury electors to select from for their. representatives. Mr. Charles H. Hopwood, a com mon law barrister, is one, and he looks upon the, act as one " for /cure and healing, and not for repression," and "in the expenditure necessary to carry out the act it would be "-his-" constant care to assist in repressing the tendency to extravagances which too frequently accom panies new le g islation for the classes which cannot - help themselves." Mr. Edward Mirams, another, reports himself as having been actively engaged in various volun tary efforts for supplying religious and secular instruction to the uneducated for twenty-five years. He is against favouring any religious dogma; he promises a strict regard to the rights and religious convictions of parents, and to have a jealous watchfulness over the expenditure of money. Mr. Arthur Langdale . has come forward as a Roman Catholic for the . Toaer Hamlets. The Rev. M. Mee, vicar of St. Jude's, is a candidate for Southwark, on the principle - of religious and compulsory education ; and Mr. Trosidder, a candidate for Lambeth, announces himself as an unflinching opponent of denominationalism, but says that he would insist on the Bible as the basis of all educa tion. THE ALHAMBRA. PALM) The decibion of the Middlesex magistrates, in with drawing the dancing licence from the Alhambra, has not defeated, though it embarrassed the manager of that famous place of amusement. He has proved himself a tactician of real resource. Deprived of the means of continuing the course of entertainment which has been equally profitable and pophlar, Mr. Strange makes no compromise, but boldly strikes out into an entirely new line. He alters his building so as to in crease the space for promenade, adds fresh decorations to an interior already lavishly adorned, transforms the stage into a great orchestra; and offers the public a series of pro menade concerts upon a great scale. The result is highly satisfactory. In the opinion of a great many people the change will be a gain rather than a loss. The Alhambra band, originally very strong, has been increased to 150 performers, the band of the Scots Fusilier Guards assists, and there is besides a'company of vocalists. During the present week the first part of the programme includes miscellaneous selections for band, and instrumental soli, songs, &c., winding up with a revival of the famous Jullien's British Army Quadrilles. The admirable per fornaance of the Hanlon Brothers introduces the second part, and affords the musicians a rest at this point. Then follow the two war songs " The Watch on the Rhine and " The Marseillaise." On the opening night both these airs, sung • with great effect by German and French artists respectively, were enthusiastically encored, the French song in particular awakening the most lively . demonstrations. The programme finishes as it begins with a miscellaneous selection. Many of the pieces performed this week are old favourites at the Alhambra. The well arranged, and particularly well played, selection from " Il Trovatore " never seems to grow stale. The overture to " Zampa and Semiramide," Gounod's march, " La Reine de Saba," and others have likewise established themselves here. In brief the selec tion is as judicious as the execution is good, and the whole constitutes, a performance of a very high order, and of a character which a Middlesex magistrate could not object to witness. The singing is good, though conducted under some dis advantage in a very large' area, and (in the case of the war songs) against a powerful band; of the orchestra it may be noticed that the addition en bloc of the Guards' band gives the brass rather au undue preponderance over the stringed instruments. Of the arrangements for the comfort of visitors it is needless to speak. The present style of entertainment is capable of infinite variety, and ought to be a permanent success. It deserves to be such. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. A soldier of the Gth Carbineers, named Powell, com mitted suicide on Sunday in Dundalk Barracks by cut ting his throat with a razor, while labouring under depression of spirits produced by excessive drinking. The committee of the Welsh Charity, Ashford, Middle sex, with the approval of his Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, president of the society, have intimated their intention of electing upon the foundation two children of Welsh parents who may have been lett orphans through the late lamentable catastrophe to the Captain. The flying squadron, under the command of Rear- Admiral G. T. P. Hornby, is daily expected at Spit headfrom South America. It consists of the Liverpool, 35, screw - frigate, Captain J. 0.

The mountain gun,.being lighter, is con sidered better suited for the special service for which it is required, The nine-pounders already made will became available for the armament of field batteries of artillery in lieu of breech-loaders, with which they are now princi pally armed. This gun is similar in construction to the modern Muzzle-loader known as the Woolwich gun, and weighs 8 cwt. large draught, consisting of detichments belong in g to the Royal Horse and Foot Artillery, will leave W ool wicli for India about the 15th instant. The exact number about to embark is not yet known, as the draught will be increased by detachments from outlying stations. Great activity prevails in Woolwich Arsenal with a vie of perfecting the armament of the reserve forces before the spring of 1871. A despatch from St. Ives leaves no doubt that the wreckage found in that vicinity is that of the ship Geneva, which sailed from Liverpool for St. John's, New Brunswick, on the Bth October. She has been lost with all hands. THE TnucK SYSTEM IN THE BLACK COUNTRY. — The "special commissioner" of the BirniiNgham Daily Gazette, writing on the Truck System in the Black Country, says :—" Allow me to suggest that the Truck Conimissioners in the coming inquiry should endeavour to elicit from local witnesses the rela tive bearings to each other of " Tommy Shops" and ; pawnshops. I have been acquainted for some yeaT with the more populous parts of the Black country, and I do not hesitate, from local experience, to affirm that these institutions flourish bed side by side, The closing of the " Tommy Shops," for good and all, would have the effect of entirely shutting up two-thirds of the pawnbroking establishments i n the South. Staffordshire district. In the township of Dar lastOn alone—where the " truck " is doing its utmost to ruin the place—there is an aggre gate population of about eighteen • thousand. It has now eight pawnshops, whereas three years ago, before the "Tommy Shop " draw system assumed its present dimen sions, there were only three or four, and some of them very inadequately supported. The ;workmen must have money ; if they . cannot have cash at the " T omm y Shop " draws, they .will rush to the pawnbroker with their best clothes (if they have any) or any negotiable bit of personal property they are best able to spare. W ith a " Tommy Shop!' in the field, the workmen who enter,on this course of tru c ki ng and pawning, grow gradually impoverished, and seld om , if ever, retrieve their position. - It is all downhill with them.
