There was one noticeable feature in the House of Lords last night, and that was the desertion of Earl RUSSELL by his own party. They were quite as much shocked, puzzled, and alarmed at the pros pect before them as any old Tory of the strictest school could be. Progress, what and to when, seemed to be their ejaculation to this string of Resolutions of the most serious kind and comprehen sivecharacter. All is well that ends well, however, and we must remember that nothing has come of this great onslaught on Government. With one thing and another Ministers have tided over this autumn ses sion in a satisfactory manner, and they have in reality been the gainers by the ill-directed attempt of Earl RUSSELL last night, since he cannot now come forward with so much force and vigour in the spring of the year as if he had husbanded his resources, and taken time and thought to make his attack. Oue thing must be borne in mind, and that is, that the house of Lords has done nothing iu the matter ; and, therefore, let it not be supposed that the Government, the Opposition, or the House collectively, are opposed to a reform in education. An act of importance and interest must be done at the proper time, or else it is better to let it alone; but this truth, plain as it is, seems to have escaped the observation and notice of Lord R USSELL, and hence his failure. Earl RUgSELL has not taken much by his motion, and our anticipations have been realised with regard to the feeling of the House of Lords on the subject. By this time, in all probability, he and his friends have regretted the course he persisted in taking, contrary to all precedent, and quite in defiance of what courtesy suggested. In one respect at least the noble lord showed his sense of the error into which he had fallen when he declined to press the case to a division. He saw that the House had determined not to be entrapped into a long debate upon a question which, important in itself, was then quite out of time and place ; besides, it was difficult to speak without compromising one self, as it were, and nowadays, especially, no one of any standing in politics would appear to slight this important matter of education. To have risen merely to denounce the:Resolutions of the noble lord might have been misunderstood, or misconstrued into a coldness or an indifference to the subjects re ferred to, and during the recess at Christmas some busybodies might have been found very ready to declare that the House of Lords really did not care about education, and were glad to shirk the matter. This is not true, because there are many noble lords who take a deep interest in the matter, but they would be the first to object to the premature discussion of the question. Earl RUSSELL'S position last night was so disastrous a One that his very opponent must have been very sorry for him ; but then to be sure there is this to be said that it was entirely his own fault that he was brought to such a pass ; he rushed to his fate with a perversity that was most extraordinary, and wil fully shut his eyes to what the experience of years must have taught him it was duty to do and also not to do. It must be in some sort a satisfaction to those of more moderate pretensions to see how one of such eminent standing as the noble lord could throw away his chance of really influencing the decision of the House when the proper time came to pass judgment upon it. One reason for the strange course pursued by the noble lord slipped out last night in his discourse. He is jealous for the dignity of the House of Lords, and feels indignant at all the prestige of the work done being left to the lower branch of the Legislature. Perhaps there is some truth in these remarks, but then at the same time it must be borne in mind it is the peculiar province of the House of Com mons to take the chief share of the burden of the direction of affairs, and it would be neither a popu lar nor a profitable arrangement to alter it. As the question of education does not as yet belong to the other House, Earl Itu.ssELL imagined that he might take advantage of it, and allow the House of Lords to take their turn in inaugurating important changes and improvement-3. The Duke of MAra.nonouGu contrived to give a very good reply to the charge of the noble earl, and it is impossible to deny that he had right on his side, when he said that this time was an ill chosen one for the propounding of a series of resolutions indefinite in their form and character ; and, besides, the House must bear in mind that the Session which called them together was an "exceptional" one, and held at a period of the year when Ministers were generally engaged in maturing their plans and schemes to submit to the approval of the Houses of Parliament. There was also great truth in the observation of the noble duke that the subject of education was not one to THE SUN, LONUOIS, TUESDAY EVENING 9 DECEMBER 3, 1867. be made a party question of. We are glad to fin d that the Government, as represented by the noble duke, seems not averse to a change in some im portant point, such as giving a modified assistance to tho 33 schools which have not certificated teachers under the Revised Code. If this be done their es tablishment might be enabled to get on for a few years, and then obtain certificated teachers and en- j oy all the benefits conferred by the State. The Atlantic Telegraph, bringing the news of yesterday from New York, tells us that telegrams from Havannah on the previous day report that a severe shock of earthquake had occurred at the un fortunate island of St. Thomas, and islands imme diately adjacent, on the 19th of November. Serious loss of life and much damage to shipping had been occasioned by this fresh disaster. There is evidently unusual elemental disturbance in those regions, liable as they are to sudden convulsions of nature. Fire, flood, hurricane, and earthquake have suc cessively visited the unhappy residents in St. Thomas's, and it is easy to believe that the damage done to life and property must have been extensive. The telegraph brings us also the intelligence that the Austrian frigate No vara, with the remains of the late Emperor MAXI MILIAN had arrived at Havannah yesterday. It is satisfactory to know that the earnest wish of the re latives of the gallant but unfortunate Emperor has been gratified, and that JIJAREz has so far acceded to the requirements of civilisation and humanity. We fear there is not much to be hoped in these re spects from the present ruler of Mexico, but it is something gained if he has learned that he cannot defy the opinion of the civilised world with impunity. American news itself is but slender. We heard a day or two since of a significant fact—the approval of the appointment of Mr. HORACE GREELEY by the Senate. Mr. GREELEY was, it will be remembered, a prominent member of the Republican party, but he drew down upon himself the wrath of his party by breaking through the iron fetters which they endeavoured to impose on every man alike. Mr. GREELEY was, however, indepen dent enough to think for himself—a faculty which is often dangerous on both sides of the Atlantic. His appointment gives a good meeting-ground to the President and the Congress, since he is profes sedly Republican in his opinions, and yet has broken loose from the trammels of his party. But the approval of the appointment indi cates, we may hope, the approach of a better un derstanding between the head of the Government and the Legislature. The elections may have taught the Radicals a lesson. At any rate they are less likely to assume the tone of open and defiant opposition to every movement of the Government which they adopted last Session. The knowledge that the PRESIDENT'S veto will no longer be a mere matter of form will naturally put a check upon ex travagant and unconstitutional proceedings like those of the last two Sessions. The elections in the Carolinas, so far as is yet known, have been con fined to the negroes, who of course unanimously support the Convention candidates, who will vote for the supremacy of the blacks. According to the New York journals Mr. SEWARD has appealed to the English Government for clemency to the Manchester Fenians, but this is not authenticated. Among the pieces of social intelli gence brought by the Chicago, which will be read with interest in this country, is the news of CIIARLES DICKENS'S safe arrival in Boston, and his enthusiastic reception there. his first reading was to take place last evening in that city. Perhaps tlire. is no country to whom it is more important than to our own to preserve a rapid awl efficient system of postal communication with other nations. Our political and commercial relations are of vast extent, and our private correspondence with the emigrant and colonial populations deserves nearly equal consideration. Between this country and America more especially the demand for a regular and reliable mail system is impera tive, and we are so much in the habit of seeing the work done well and regularly, in spite of all difficulties and drawbacks, that we should find it difficult to imagine a different state of things. The Cunard Company, at the close of 28 years' service, are able to boast that they have never lost a passenger or a letter, that they have carried the mails to and from the American ports with unfailing regularity, and that if on any occa sion their vessels have not started at the appointed time it has only been owing to Government inter vention. The rate of speed which they have main tained does honour to our national shipbuilding, and the resolute manner in which they have con fronted the Atlantic in its worst moods reflects no less credit on the skill of the commanders than on the sea worthiness of their vessels. To all interested in the receipt or transmission of Ameri can news, either public or private, the names of the Cunard steamers are familiar as household words, and it was with the general regret of all concerned that the contract arrived at its close. The Post office authorities proposed to abandon the system of subsidies, and to accept tenders from some of the large ship companies to carry the mails on particular days, receiving as remuneration the sea postage. This arrangement would only affect our English mails, or that the United States would have to make some similar arrangement on their side, and the whole system would be left in a state of most undesirable uncertainty. It is really a matter of congratulation that the attempted change broke down at the very outset. The Cunard Com pany perceived that it would not answer their pur pose, knowing by long experience the real cost, responsibility, and labour of the service they had so long undertaken, and consequently began disposing of their steamers. Bat the tenders which the Go vernment received were all more or less unsatisfac tory. The days of the week for sailing were irre gular and unsuitable. The Cunard steamer regu larly leaves Queenstown on the Sunday, the greater part of the correspondence for the States and Canada being posted on the Saturday, and no other company could or would arrange for the same day. The Government readily perceived that the sudden change would be very unwelcome to the commercial world. Other difficulties intervened, and it became evident that at present, at all events, the new scheme would not work. Under these circumstances the Cunard Company came forward an 1 offered to renew the contract for eleven years on reduced terms. The Government, h3wever, was no lo:iger free to act for so long a period, as the United St:ttes Government had suc ceeded in arranging a sn-postage system. It has been finally decided to renew the contract with the Cunard Company for one year for a sum of £BO,OOO, and this decision will, we think, be received with general satisfaction. For care year at least, then, this vital question is settled, and there remains leisure and opportunity to consider our further course. It appears at pre sent that the best plan would be, if possible, to pre serve the system by which the work is now so effi ciently done. If the Cunard Company would agree to a reduced rate of payment much anxiety and un certainty would be saved. They have their fleet in good working order, and the undertaking would be less costly to them than to new corners. Our Post Office is rich enough in all conscience to afford what is requisite, and its profits might be as well spent in forwarding the interests of its particular depart ment :as in benefiting the other brunches of the Government. If the rates of postage could be materially lessened, we believe the profit would be proportionately increased, but we have not much confidence that the proposed sea-postage system will ever prove so reliable or so efficient as the old long-tried public servants. Winter has come upon us all at once. After pay ing us several flying visits, peeping at us through occasional foggy nights and frosty mornings, and whispering tales of his triumphs to come through the boisterous winds which have now and then swept our streets, he has suddenly announced his intention of taking up his abode among us for some time. The news from all parts of the country this morning repeats the same story. From Wicklow to Dover, from Cornwall to Suffolk, comes the same history of frost and wind, of excitement and destruc tion. The telegraph wires and posts in many places have suffered great damage, several having been blown down. in Norfolk the birthday greeting which rude Boreas gave to the Princess of WALES was to blow down several large trees in the neigh bouring avenue. Even in the sober and sheltered metropolis itself a good deal of mischief has been done, as the state of the conservatories and out houses in the suburban districts proves. Along the coast, however, the consequences are naturally more serious, and the gallant crews of our lifeboat sta tions have had rough work to do. The accounts from many of the more exposed parts is full of interest; but unhappily, in spite of all the eager and often heroic efforts made to save life, there have been many lives lost. Another tragedy has been added to the long list of disasters on the Goodwin Sands. The burning of a light and the firing of guns called out the Kingsdown lifeboat ; but though the men exerted themselves to the utmost they could not, when they got out to sea, find any trace of the vessel. So tremendous was the sea that they found it impossible to get back to Kingsdown, and had to run for Ramsgate harbour. From Ramsgate itself comes better news, the Bradford lifeboat having succeeded in rf.scuing eight men after they had been in the rigging of a wrecked vessel for eleven hours. Off Sunderland the gale, it is said, lashed the sea into absolute fury; and off Shields the captain of a vessel which arrived safely reports having seen a collision between a screw steamer and a brig with such terrific force that the brig sunk immediately, and it is believed carried the crew down with her. Now is the time to strengthen the hands of our Lifeboat Institution, and we may well rejoice that so able and efficient an association watches over the interests of our seafaring population. garian Diet to-day, the bill, settling the proportion to be contributed by Hungary to the revenue for the present year, was passed almost unanimously.

On the night of Friday, the Ist inst., a cyclone raged in Bengal, extending, according to present information, from the bay northward to Serajguni, westward to Midnapore and Burdwan, eastward to Burrisaul and Dacca. The rice crops throughout the track visited by the cyclone are greatly injured. In many places it is estimated that not one-fourth will be saved. Many buildings have been destroyed, as also boats on the inland rivers laden with jute and grain. Large quantities of the growing jute have also been destroyed. Great damage has been done at Port Canning. A storm wave, nearly 6 feet high, carried away a portion of the river bank jetties. The railway is much injured, and the station destroyed. At Calcutta the cyclone lasted nearly eight hours. It is estimated that it has done more damage to the city than the great cyclone of October, 1864. In the city suburbs more than 1,000 lives nave been ascertained to have been lost, and 30,000 native huts destroyed. Tugs and other vessels have been wrecked at Sanger. Several vessels are missing, and numerous ships are return ing disabled ; more than 600 native boats have been destroyed. The steam transport Euphrates has put in at Calcutta to refit, greatly injured. At Bard wan much distress has been occasioned among the native population. The telegraph line along the Ganges has been thrown down. In Bengal great distress is reported, and the Government of the Presidency is actively engaged in taking mea sures for the relief of the sufferers ; the Board of Revenue is co-operating with it ; the Famine Relief Committee are collecting funds. LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. - COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sittings at Nisi Prius before Mr. Justice Blackburn and a Common jury. SEAL V. DUTTON.-WHICH WAS THE WORST ? This was an action to recover compensation iu damages for an alleged slander. The defendant pleaded not guilty, and it was further stated that it was merely a vulgar brawl between the two per sons. It appeared that the parties had originally been friends and lived within a door or two of one another. The occupation of the plaintiff did not transpire, but the defendant stated himself to be a wood engraver. The plaintiff had been living with a person as his wife for nearly 14 years. She left him, and went to the hous,e of the defendant, in consequence of which the affray arose. It was stated on me side that the separation resulted from the crue'ty ;old ill- treatment of the plaintiff, and on the other that she had been decoyed away by defendant. Ilowever, on the Bth June last, the plaintiff met the diLudant, and, according to his statement, called him a " returned convict," '► a thief," and shook his hand in his face, using language too foul to be repeated, and that he also knocked down his steps before his door. The defendant's account was that he met the plaintiff, and that the latter said he would persecute him all he could, when defendant said he would begin first and sue him for some money he owed him. The plaintiff agreed to pay that on the following Tuesday. After some vulgar abuse they parted, but later in the afternoon de fendant passed the plaintiff's house and saw him in the kitchen. lie made some observation, and defendant replied, alluding to him, " that he wanted a model for a monkey, and that he would do well for it." (Laughter.) At this he got into a great rage, and defendant laughed. Some observations were then made about the woman Mrs. Drewitt, and defendant then said that plaintiff had had Mrs. Drewitt living with him 14 years, and then had ill used her and tried to seduce her sister, and for this he was worse than a dirty thief. He did not call him a returned convict. He knocked down the steps by accident. His wife offered Mrs. Drewitt an asylum, and he confirmed it. He had taken Mrs. Drewitt and her sister to a music hall once. His wife had gone with her on another occasion. The wife having confirmed the evidence, the jury found for the plaintiff.

Edward Moxon and Co. Already known—and we will add with honour to himself —among living dramatic writers, as the author of " CrO33US, King of Lydia," Colonel Richards may, not unreasonably. count upon being borne in remembrance among English lyrists, by right of these tender, yet manly, outpourings of his heart in verse--" Religio Animaa," with six-and-forty other poems of varied character and pretensions. For inasmuch as he has placed " Religio Animte" before his readers at the very commencement of the volume, we think he has acted wisely and with commendable discretion ; for it not only strikes, as it were, the keynote, but opens up, as by a most touching prelude all the manifold and fluctuating harmonies that follow one another immediately thereupon. Through his " Religio Animas" we catch at once a vivid glimpse of the whole range of those emotional and philosophic meditations, which have been born, in his inner heart and conscience, from his reverent contempla tion of the mysteries of the universe. Saddened and solemnised, yet full of hope—his soul leaps up to the recognition of those eternal truths and preterna tural consolations, which, happily, for all believers pluck from the grave its sting, and rob death of its victory. Among the most touching passages iu the whole of this beautiful vAume, we would here particularise at once the affecting apostrophe to his children, which occurs in this very poem, Religio Como hither, my sweet children ! Some time we three must part, Though linked with living fetters, Whose padlock is my heart, Come hither my sweet babe-girls Gaze softly in mine eyes ; Beams not in your blue vision Some light from far-off skies ? I could not welcome daybreak, 1 could not sleep at night, If I thought TIUS world ended My tender, true delight ; I dared not watch your gambols, 1 could not strain you near Unto my heart of heart throbs As now, for very fear, Lest MY days soon be numbered A grave face pass away, And we for aye bo sundered, Mere doad from living clay : Or as ye hide in playing Behind my study door, Some night yo should be hidden, And laughing come no more. Save only for the faulty rhyming of "sundered" with " uttuabered"—which would be a lapses simply impos sible with the author of " Evangeline"—the whole passage might have come from the pen of Pro fessor Longfellow. One other flaw only have we been able to detect in " Religio Animas," namely, the almost painful suggestiveness, through the last two lines of an otherwise nearly faultless little poem, of the operation for cataract, that is —em ploying the oculist's delicate lancet in lieu of the poet's " tongue of flame." By an easily contrived emendation at the two points here indicated, the author might, according to our appreciation of it, at least, just perfect this exquisite initial poem of the volume, the poem giving the book its title as a collection, namely, as " Religio Animas, and Other Poems." Among those forty odd " other poems" of a miscellaneous kind there are, as a matter of course, many not alone nominally but literally of a fugitive character. But, interspersed with these, there are several charming, some of them even haunting, lyrics—songs of war, of peace, of love, of patriotism, idylls, epigrams, what not—that the readers of the little book " will not willingly let die" out of their remembrance. Speaking of epigrams by the way, there is one—it occurs at page 296 which has oddly enough sprung out of a curiously misplaced or distorted recollection—being in effect as one may say, the echo of au echo of an echo ; or, otherwise to put it, the translation of a trans lation of a translation. " From the French," it is called, by Colonel Richards—who adds in a foot note "* I quote the French from memory, and possibly incorrectly." The French pseudo-original being there given thus : " Quand vos youx en naissant s'ouvraient ii la. lurniZ..ro, Chacun vous souriait, mon fits, et eons pleuriez ; Vivez si bien qu'uu jour votro derniere hours, Chacun verse des larmes et qu'on vous voit sourire." Evidently, this is, of course, in the unsatisfactory rhyming of it, a faulty recollection of the sup posed French original ; but whether remembered accurately or not, for such as it is, the quatrain has been thus ingeniously rendered into English by our author— Thine eyes with early tears were wet, my child, As at thy birth all gazed on thee and smiled ; So live, that at Life's close thou may'st be found, Saintly to smile on those who weep around. The first word in the last verse, it may be here said par parentPse, is apparently a misprint for Faintly. But, however this may be, the epigram, in its original integrity, is " From the Persian," not " From the French "—having been first brought to the knowledge of epigram-lovers throughout Western Europe in the last century, by that famous oriental scholar, Sir William Jones, whose version of it, done into English by his own hand, is one among the choicest gems ever contributed by any epigrammatist to any literature ; running thus-- On parent's knees a naked new-born child, Weeping thou satest, whilst all around thee smiled ; So live, that sinking to thy last long sleep, Then thou may'st smile whilst all around thee weep. Sir William Jones, translating from the Persian into English, must, therefore, have had his English version done into French by some anonymous epigrammatist, whose dimly remembered echo of an echo, must thus have been echoed back again into our English vernacular by the author of " Religio Anima►." Under the mournful title of " Miserrima," there are given, as the second poem in the volume, a series of melodious verses, the dying cadences of which, stanza by stanza, have a sad and captivating beauty of their own— Sad as first love, and wild with all regrets ; So sad, so sweet— these lamenting verses of Miserrima ! Akin to them in pathetic significance are " Cypress Leaves and Passion Flowers," given, to the number of ten, later en in the volume—" Bleed in the Dark, my Soul," " Would I might fall asleep," " Pale memory is mine," and similar cries of lamen tation. Among the happiest translations achieved. by Colonel Richards, is his version of the "Last Song of Chenier," whose despairing ex clamation, as he struck his forehead with his hand, when mounting the scaffold of the guillotine, on the morning of his execution, •' And there was something here !" has been so touch ingly commemorated in one of the most affecting of the minor poems of Lord Lytton. If April 23, 1864, brought no other Tercentenary Commemora tion with it in any way worthy of evidencing the universal homage felt for the peerless genius of Shakspere, it at any rate passed by not altogether unmarked in a manner befitting so glorious an anniversary, seeing that it elicited the following noble lines under the heading PRAYSE-1664. Fayre wisdomo's Bridegromno, married to her Yong, That dry'd the inke, wherewith he wrote, with sand Shedde from the houre-glasso of admiring Time. His birth alone had stamp'd the nation great Where ho was nurtur'd ; for indeed ho was Ilumanitie's bright essence. None o'er liv'd Compeer° to him, or will ; for ho malo all His owns, that is. Eche inoneth he lay within His mother's wombe, a severalle Muse did bears Her sweetest companie : thus was he framed To such nice sympathyes ; and on the dais lie first did stretche his dicapliu.; finger tow'rd Earth's waving fbw'res, Apollo left his throne To visit him and kisso his smiling brow In seals of promise. That yere laurells bloom'd Before their time in this our Britain's isle. As showing how wide are our author's sympathies, it is worthy of note that he is equally enthusiastic in his address " To the Empress Eugenie" ou hear ing of her visits to the Sick and Dying in the Cholera Hospitals of France, and in his address "To Garibaldi" on the occasion of his visit to, and his reception in, England. " A Bugle Call to Eng and" comes appropriately from the lips of the author or originator of the whole movement of Our Rifle Volunteers. And of a-piece with the patriotic ardour which first inspired that happy thought, and afterwards SO strenuously aided in carrying it to its successful realisation, are the pasiion, the fer' your, and the musical eloquence animating so DWI of the heart-stirring ditties scattered up and dosco the leaves of this graceful volume of poetry--as for example " The Martial Airs of England," "OU Volunteers," " The Death of Wellington," " An „ Echo of St. Crispin," " Pipe Clay and Bunting , and—a companion portraiture, in its way, to the " Private of the Buffs" of Sir Francis Doyle—" lb ,, e Dying Soldier from the Redan." C on tra s ting Wi t ' these very charmingly, "La Jenne Fillo et 13 Mort" ought not to be overlooked ; any 1130r . 3 than ought " L'Amour qui passe et ulispo'r qui vieut." Two or three whimsicalities w e fail to catch the humour of as, for e xample' the one "On a late Oc-cu r - rence ." There are seve ral —perhaps half-a-dozen—dainty morceaux Heinrich Heine, the best of all these being " 1.113 Pilgrimage to Kevlaar." Excellent, admirable though some of the minor poems in the volatile there is not one among them all, however, in 511 . 1 way to compare, to our thi n ki ng , w ith " Relit/ Animsa," a poem to which we gladly revert as by W the finest poetical effusion, of which we have WV, knowledge, from the hand of Alfred Richards.
