Lord DERBY may certainly claim the credit of having been the first to put forward the grievances of the poorer classes and to assert their claims to redress in the matter of the evictions for railways and public buildings. Therefore the deputation that yesterday waited upon his lordship possesses a particular interest, as well as the general regard which it naturally attracts. Mr. BANKS, the sec- retary, read a memorial on the subject, which set 'orth in an impressive manner the general features of the case, and the attention of the Government was specially directed to the condition of the arti zan and labouring classes of London regard- ing the " sanitary state of their dwellings, and the frightful consequences entailed by it." It is, indeed, a serious state of things which is pre sented to us in this sketch, and the worst part of it is that we must all feel that it is strictly► true. The population of London has increased greatly of late years, while the dwellings allotted to them have rapidly decreased, and the natural result is that great numbers of persons are crowded together into single apartments, in bad localities, and with no regard to family, age, or sex. " The physical and moral degradation thus produced is excessive, degrading, and alarming, throwing numbers on the poor rates, consigning many to hospitals and infirmaries, and more to lives of sin, shame, and ruin." We may arrive at a better understanding of this vital subject if we consider for a few moments some of the practical results of this fearful evil. At present, in London, there are as many as half a million workmen with their families who have no proper house shelter, and during the period of the last four years 50,000 of :hese have been " dispossessed" of their houses, and sent forth into unsuitable districts, which, to use the forcible language of the memorialists, already " teem with life and disease." It is more than four years now since Lord DERBY called the attention of the House of Lords to this matter, and if more heed had then been paid to his suggestions we might not now have the sad task of recording the distress and misfortunes that have ensued in con sequence of the wholesale evictions of the poor without any due provision being made for them. It is too much the fashion of the present day to consider everything secondary to the advance ment of trade and the progress of money-making, but it is a grievous error to suppose that these humbler members of society can be neglected and injured with impunity. It is both a moral and a social wrong that is being perpetrated among us, and now at the eleventh hour, as it were, it operates trumpet-tongued unto us of the wrong and injustice which we are doing with one hand, while with the other - we are making striking improvements in the metropolis, and commencing and consolidating works which distant generations shall ad mire and profit by. It was truly said in this memorial referred to that the work of remedying this evil is far beyond the reach of pri vate hands ; and, although several philanthropic persons who have taken up this matter hare con trived to arrange suitable accommodation for ten thousand or so, still it is insignificant in com parison with the multitudes who require assistance. In the name of " humanity and religion," as well as in the economic interests of the inhabitants of the metropolis, the deputation desired to impress on Lord DERBY the importance of having no further railway extensions or public works unless the sanc tion was accompanied by a compulsory " provi sion or compensation for tenants liable to be evicted thereby." Mr. ToRYENS'S Bill introduced last session proposed to give power to the Metropolitan Board of Works to be made a local authority for the pur poses of the act over the whole of the metropolis excepting the city. This plan has some great ad vantages in it certainly, because on them would de volve the duty of seeing that those houses were taken down which were unfit for habitation. The committee of the House of Commons were nearly unanimous as to the merits of this measure, but Mr. TORRENS said he would willingly abandon it for any better one which the Government might think fit to bring forward. Lord DERBY said very truly that they must not look upon this matter, " affecting, as it did the nation, upon purely philanthropic principles. It must be made to pay if any sub stantial good is to be done." The great difficulties in all the schemes that are put forth is that they go beyond the limits of the class most in want of aid, and thus we find Mr. CRUIKSIIANK saying that he thought what they required was houses for the respectable labouring classes, and not for the lowest classes ; but as Lord DERBY asked, " What are we to do with them ?" The chief result of all the plans for ameliorating the condition of the poor seems to be to them the charge, or a great part of it, on the rates, but surely some important share should be borne by those who profit, or expect to profit, by the works introduced on so gigantic a scale. _ No conclusion was come to yesterday, since the object of the deputation was in a great measure to ascertain the opinions of the noble Earl at the head of the Government ; and he, on his part, came to hear what scheme might best assure the object they all had in view. We consider, how ever, that a good deal was done in this meeting, and it is very satisfactory to know that her MAJESTY'S Ministers are so desitous of helping on any possible plan which may suit this desirable end. The concluding remarks of the noble Premier are very well worthy of notice, and are full of encouragement to those who take an interest in this work. lie said that no one present could " feel a greater interest in the subject than he did, and it was a most difficult and painful one. On the part of my colleagues and myself," added he, " I may say that it has engaged our most anxious attention, and I shall be most happy to introduce a measure, and endeavour to carry it through the House, if I can see my way. lam happy to have the co-operation of those who have studied the question. It is in no way a question of party ; in no sense is it such. It is one of humanity, but at the same time we must bear in mind the ordinary principles of political economy, and not attempt todeal with this as a purely philan thropic subject." We hope that the members of the Legislature will meet Lord DERBY half-way, and look upon this important subject in the spirit in which he does, and then no doubt some satisfactory result will be come to, and there will be a chance of improving the condition of those who now so greatly I stand in need of help.

Ti - JE SUN, LOIWON, THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 10, 1867 DENT'S offences, and the Radical party, we are told, are determined to push on the impe: ichment without delay. Six months ago such a - proceed ing was hardly dreamt of. If occasions lly pro posed in the most violent harangues of the least creditable members of the Radical party, it was indignantly rejected by those who profess to be the leading spirits. The increase of power which has come to the faction with the elections has apparently intoxi cated them with success. They believe the des tinies of the nation to be in their hands, and are absolutely intolerant of the slightest check or hin drance from any opposing influence, past, present, or to come. The restraints of the Constitution are burst asunder without a moment's regret or hesita tion. WASHINGTON was altokther inftrior to STEVENS and WENDELL PHILLIPS; JEFFERSON was not to be compared in administrative ability to BUTLER. If the great names of the past 'ban win no respect it is not likely that the men of the pre sent can extort deference or attention. Th aPRESI DENT is an obstacle in their headlong course.. Firm and undaunted, he raises his voice at every opportunity to protest against their encroachments on the liberties of the body politic, and .steadily exerts the remnants of power they have left him to oppose their violent subversion of the Constitution of the Union. He is not a man to be either bribed or threatened. He must be got out of the way. Abuse of power brings Democracy at last to the same conclusion as Despotism. The man who has character and courage enough to approve the dictum of the majority must be silenced if he will not be convinced. The end must be attained ; it will not do, then, to be too particular as to the means. FRANCIS JOSEPH'S advisers might have recommended the same course with a trouble some Venetian. NICHOLAS of Russia might have applied the same arguments to a refractory constitutional Pole. So this is what American liberty is coming to I A man is to be impeached for endeavouring to preserve the Constitution which he swore to abide by. And we must observe that it is simply the impatience of the Radicals of any opposition that urges them to this step, seeing that the power is already virtually in their hands, and they can force any measure they please through both Houses. The PRESIDENT has, as was confi dently expected, vetoed the Negro Suffrage Bill for the District of Columbia, and this was his crowning offence. Yet the Radicals knew perfectly well that they could, if they chose, override the veto and carry the bill through Congress. What plea they have for their case is anything but clear, and the arguments brought forward by the leading members of the faction are not, to say the least of it, very tenable. WENDELL PHILLIPS' " instincts" tell him that the PRESIDENT has been in league with traitors. General BUTLER thinks that Mr. JOHN sces speeches at Chicago were improper, and ex posed his office to ridicule ; besides he has ap pointed his own friends to offices. America has certainly made very rapid progress in political mora lity during the last few months if the latter offence is to serve as a pretext for impeachment But in manners, as in morals, the change is strik ing, and a BUTLER lays down the law - on a point of propriety and dignity. Perhaps he thinks his own New Orleans performances were in perfect taste. If so, no wonder Mr. JOHNSON comes short of his standard. The House of Representatives evidently aim at combining the duties and the privileges of a delibe rative assembly with the functions of the Executive. They wish to be at the same time King, Cabinet, and Commons, and to exercise au absolute sway over the unrepresented mil lions of the South. If such an attempt had been made in Europe, the Americans would not have been slow to find a name for it, but under cover of the stars and stripes things seem to change their character. Practically, what is the object which the Radicals propose to themselves by the deposition of the PRESIDENT ? It is nothing less than government by force. If they will not abide by the terms of the Constitution, if they will not tolerate any oppo sition whatever, if they will not admit the repre sentatives of those States whom they know are opposed to their policy, what is to influence or deter them ? If we wanted anything to con firm this impression, we should find it in the news brought by the mail from New York on the j29th ultimo (since eclipsed in interest by the tidings of the telegraph), which reports that the Radicals in a recent caucus have resolved to attempt the enforcement of the Con stitutional Amendment, if it be ratified by three fourths of the States now represented in Congress, of which there is very little doubt. The PRESIDENT has, it is said, expressed his belief that the Supreme Court will sustain the Southern States in rejecting the Amendment. What will be the result it is im possible to foretel. If the Radical party aimed at the total disruption of the Union, national bank ruptcy, and the overthrow of trade and commerce, they could scarcely do better. They are lighting a flame which may spread far and wide, and which no human hand can extinguish when it once gains ground. History speaks in vain to them, but his tory has examples not a few of republics that have perished by the violence of factions, and that the in tolerable tyranny of the many drove the country to submit at last to the yoke of one. Is this to be the close of the great and rapid career of the nation founded by the genius and the patriotism of the CINCINNATITS of the West. England has been accused of jealousy of the progress of the States, but she will have but one feeling of regret at the lost opportunities for securing national peace and pro sperity which the blindness and the madness of a fac tion are flinging away ; and it is with anxiety and apprehension that the people of this country watch the nation with which they are so closely allied oscillating between the chaos of revolution and the horrors of civil war. Lord TEYNHAM has been addressing a branch of the Reform League, at Rotherham, on the all absorbing topic of Parliamentary Reform. Lord TEYNHAM is always worth hearing, and his opinions command respect from their consistent liberality. We are sorry to find, however, that he is so strenuous an advocate of Manhood Suffrage, which, we think, it is a mistake for the advanced Re formers to set up as a standard. It is, in the first place, so totally opposed to the habits and feelings of the people that it would need a violent disruption of our usual ways of thinking and acting, which nothing but a very strong and general con viction of its necessity would bring about. Again it has not answered its purpose in other countries, and the condition in which a representation by numbers is placing the American commonwealth is anything but encouraging. If every unconvicted man had the right to vote, the privilege of voting would be valueless, and, what is more, very many are even now totally indifferent to its possession. With regard to the Ballot, we heartily agree with Lord TEYNHAM, and are glad to find him coming forward so boldly on its behalf. If the Reformers are wise, they will make the Ballot, and not Man hood Suffrage, their strong point, and we hope they will not rest till they obtain it. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Wednesday Evening. The Moniteur gives the following items of news : On the occasion of the Christmas fetes the Rus- sian Secretary of Legation at Copenhagen, by order of his Court, gave to the Royal Family of Denmark some magnificent presents from the Princess Dag mar and the Emperor of Russia. The Princess of Wales also sent from England rich presents to Copenhagen. _ _ _ The Gazette Officielle of Italy details the proposals of the Minister of War with a view to make reduc- tions hu his department. General Cugia explained various reforms, which would lead to a reduction of 40 millions of francs in the war budget for 1867. The Constilutionnel states that there was another shock of earthquake in Algeria on Friday last, at four o'clock in the morning, and that many houses were destroyed. The same paper also mentions, upon the authority of the Italian journals, that rather serious tumults hare taken place at Santa Margherita di Rapallo and at Gallerate, in consequence of there having been au augmentation in various Excise duties. Troops, however, had been rapidly marched to the scenes of disorder, and at the last accounts tran quillity had been restored. There had been a great many arrests. It does not appear that there - was anything political in these insurrectionary move ments. The Debat of Vienna says that the ,Minister of State has obtained the sanction of the Emperor to a proposed law of amnesty- applicable to all persons who have forfeited their political rights in conse quence of condemnations for offences of the press. This measure will soon be published. One result of it will be to increase the number of electors, who will have to vote for the Reichsrath. The Debat also states that, according to letters from Trieste, the Montenegrins had violated the peaceful arrangements which had been made by de stroying two Turkish magazines, and making vari ous preparations for war. A secret understanding had been made between Servia and Montenegro. This news, it should be added, is discredited. To-day has been a day of " gentle spring." We have had a blue sky and a shining sun, with no sen sation of a want of fire. The effects of the snow, however, are still manifest. The road cleaners and crossing sweepers have been busily engaged in what I believe scavengers call " fancy work," that is to say, sweeping the mud and slush into graceful heaps on both sides of the streets, to be removed accord ing to weather and convenience. The Marquis do La Rochejaquelein, of whose death I informed you, was born on the 28th Sep tember, 1805. He was for some time a cavalry officer in the French army, but having obtained permission to serve in the Russian army, he was engaged in the Turkish campaign in 1828. He afterwards resigned his commission, and retired to La Vendee, where he lived tranquilly without in terfering with public affairs. He was hereditary Peer under the old regime, and his speeches were full of fire and eloquence. His eloquence was replete with " thoughts that breathe and words that burn." His fine aristocratic aspect also added force to his eloquence. It speaks " trumpet tongued" for the liberal feeling of the Emperor, that, although the Marquis de La Rochejaquelien had been attached to other dynasties, his Majesty made him a Senator in 1852. The present principle of the Government seems to be to set aside partly " the madness of the few" to establish the prosperity and happiness of all. The Marquis took an active part in various important social movements, and was member of various commis sions. His speeches on the Roman question will not be forgotten. He was an ardent and eloquent de fender of the rights of the Pope. The Marquis also had a large share in the discussions relative to the expedition to Syria, and he advocated the cause of Polish independence. He was more frequently the opponent than the supporter of the Government ; but he was always respected, because he was an honourable and consistent adversary. The remains of the marquis are to be interred at Pecq to-morrow. " The schoolmaster is abroad." At all events, some parts of France aro not favoured with his pre sence. According to a Post-office notice two clerks, or rather two Sphynxes, are exclusively employed to decipher the enigmatical addresses of the letters sent through that establishment. Sometimes it is im possible to read fifty out of a proportion of a thou sand. The number of letters sent to the dead letter office in 1865, because no one could make out the writing on the envelopes, was 2,353,596. During the same period the number of letters transmitted through the Post-office was 311 ,095,000. That number, at all events, reached the Post-office. Earthquakes seem to be the order of the day. Many shocks have taken place in the Italian Tyrol, and volcanic mountainous eruptions seem imminent. At all events, Mount Baldo is in labour. Violent shocks have shaken this formidable mountain, and illuminated lava has rushed from its sides, portend ing an eruption. Similar phenomena have been ob served in the direction of Bassano. Three mandarins of high rank have arrived in Paris, accompanied by an interpreter, charged with the care of some rare and wonderful products from Bangkok, the capital of Siam. The King of Siam personally made choice of these articles, which consist of products of nature and works of art, manufacture, and industry. The French Gov ernment placed a vessel, the Sarthe, at the disposal of the King of Siam, for the transport of those valuable and inte resting articles. The produce of Siam will thus eventually become more familiar to us. Heretofore the Siamese Twins, Ibelieve, formed the most novel import from that kingdom. Nature united them at their birth, but they afterwards united themselves in marriage, but death has since parted both hus bands and wives. L A TEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) AMERICA.

The Turkish Government continues to send rein forcements to the Greek frontier. Five infantry battalions have been despatched to Epirus, and five more are ready to march. It is stated here that the Christian inhabitants of Thessaly refuse to supply provisions to the Greek bands who have entered that province. It is also asserted that Zembrakoki, the leader of the Candian insurrection, has em barked for Greece with a portion of the insurgents. CIRCULAR OF COUNT VON BISMARCK. BERLIN, January 10. A circular of Count von Bkmarck to the repre sentatives of Prussia abroad has been published to day. It points out the good understanding that exists between Prussia and all other States, particu larly Denmark and Holland, notwithstanding the pending questions of Northern Schleswig and Luxembourg. Peace is therefore assured every where ; and Prussia, thus relieved of any care in respect of her foreign policy, can wholly devote herself to the new consolidation of Germany. ITALY.

PARIS, Jan. 8. The Moniteur du Soir announces that the Minister of Marine and of the Colonies has re ceived despatches, dated Nov. 17, from Vice- Admiral Roze, Commander-in-Chief of the French naval division in the China Seas. The official paper summarises the contents of the despatches thus : "After the occupation of Rang-hoa by the disembarking companies of the ships of the division, the Vice-Admiral established himself in a strongly-fortified position, taking care to have the environs of the city searched by detach ments, and exploring the opposito banks of the Corean peninsula, destroying all the junks that were found in the channel. In one of these explorations the shallop of La Guerriere, at the moment of touching the coast, was re ceived almost at point-blank distance by a discharge of musketry that killed three sailors. Our marines leaped ashore and dislodged the Coreans, who had fired from the brushwood, and, led on by first-class Naval Cadet Chatel, put them to flight after having killed some of their number. "Vice-Admiral Roze, wishing to ascertain the state of the country, a detachment under the Naval Captain 011ivier left Kang-hoa, and encountered, some kilometres from the towns, Coreans in large force, entrenched in a fortified pagoda. The enemy made a sortie, but was repulsed, and hastened to return to his entrenchments, leaving his dead behind. After a very lively fire, in which wo had no killed, but unfortunately some wounded, the column re turned the same night to Kang-hoa. "Some days afterwards Vice-Admiral Roze, finding that the Corean Government did not follow up the overtures he had expected upon receiving a letter from the King, deter mined to leave Kang-hoa. The approach of winter was already beginning to be felt, and fears were entertained that all navigation in the river Saloo might soon be in terrupted. He, therefore, ordered the destruction of all the Government establishments, with the King's palace, and our sailors returned on board the ships moored in front of the island of Boise°. The coffers euntainiug the silver burs representing the amount of 197,000 francs,with manuscripts and books that may be interesting to science, were sent to Shanghai, whence they will be forwarded to France. " Vice-Admiral Roze also announces that he has been joined by the two mi ss i onar i es w h o h a d remained in Corea, they having succe e d e d i n gett i ng on s hore at Tche-fou. '' The destruction o f K ang-hoa, an important wariposi tion, and of the po w d er magaz i nes an d public establish ments that town cont a i ne d , mus t h ave shown the Corean Government that the murder of the French missionaries was not to remain unpunished." THE COST OF WAR.—A communication from Saxony states that the costs of tho war to that kingdom will amount to 80,500,000 fr., without reckoning the enor mous losses suffered by trade and commerce. LITERATURE. Two Marriages. By the author of " John Halifax." Two vols. Hurst and Blackett. A new novel by the author of " John Halifax" is always a welcome sight to many readers, and the work now brought forward by that popular author will in no wise disappoint the expectations of her many admirers. These two volumes contain two separate stories, in no way related to each other, yet each in a different way illustrating the same truth. " John Bowerbank's wife" and " The Parson's Daughter" record the histories of " Two Marriages," each in its way unfortunate, because each is deficient in the true elements of a rightful union. This is the lesson which the author endea vours, and very effectively, to inculcate. John Bowerbank's wife, the gentle, loving, but meek and submissive Emily Kendal, marries at her father's desire, to the sacrifice of her own fond affection. Very forcibly does the biographer of her history denounce the fatal influence of such arbitrary in- terfercnce. People do not recognise half clearly enough the truth that God would not have created such a thing as mutual love, ending in marriage, had He not meant it to be the one thing needful. Not absolutely to the salvation of a human soul, though it is that, or the contrary, oftener than we suspect, but to its perfect development, and, above al], to its happiness. Those who interfere with what is called " a love affair " are doing what they never can undo ; de stroying what is impossible to rebuild ; taking away from two human beings that which no substitute, be it family affection, wealth, worldly honour, or success, can avail to restore. All are valueless, when love is not there. The sod lay green over Mr. Kendal's bones ; his life was over; but he had blighted two other lives,—lives which might have blossomed into beauty, and carried their perfectness down into coming generations, when his poor selfish existence was forgotten in the dust. He had done it, and it never could be undone. • it ruthful as may be these remarks in the main, they may become somewhat dangerous in the application. The evil having been done (as it ought not to have been done, most assuredly), it would have been wiser and better for Emily Bowerbank to have emulated the example of the Emilia Wyndham, well known in story, and have found happiness in the perform ance of duty— " Not once or twice in our rough island story ; The path of duty is the path of glory." Before turning to the second tale we must extract the following capital definition of a man of busi ness : A MAN OF BUSINESS. The most obvious description of him, and almost universal criticism upon him, was the common phrase, "He was a thorough man of business ;" a character which, out of business circles, it is a little the fashion to decry, or at least, to mention with a condescending apology. Hard to say why, since any acute reasoner may perceive that it takes some of the very finest qualities of real manhood to make a "thorough man of business." A man exact, per severing, shrewd, enterprising ; with a strong perception of his own rights, and an equally fair judgment, and honest admission of the rights of his neighbour : who from con science, common sense, and prudence, takes care ever to do to others as he would be done by : who has firmness enough to strike the clear balance between justice and generosity : who is honest before he is benevolent, and righteous before ho is compassionate : who will defraud no man, nor, if he can help it, suffer any man to defraud him : who is careful in order to be liberal, and accurate that he may com p e l accuracy i n th ose a b out hi m : who, though annoyed by the waste or misappropriation of a pound, would nut grudge thousands, spent in a lawful, wise, and creditable way. A man, of whom his enemies may say sarcastically, that he is a " near" man, a " sharp" man, a man who " can push his way in the world ;" yet half the world's work—and good work, too—is done by him, and the like of him. Done far more successfully, far more nobly, than by your great geniuses, who aim at everything and effect little or nothing : your grand incom pletenesses, who only sadden one by the hopelessness of their failures. Better than to be a poet, whose ignoble lifu lags haltingly behind his noble poetry ; a statesman, who tries to mend the world and forgets that the first thing to be mended is himself ; or a philanthropist, who loves all mankind, but neglects his own family ;—better far than these, in the long run, is the thorough man of business, the secret of whose career is the one simple maxim, "Anything worth doing at all is worth doing well." Whatever else people might say of John Bowerbank,— and they h a d sa i d much, both bad and good, during his life of nearly sixty years—they always said of him this-- that ho had never shuffled out of an undertaking, nor broken a promise ; never begged, borrowed, nor stolen— cheating is stealing —one shilling from any man : and though his aims might not be lofty, and his daily life was far removed from the heroic, still he was a good, honest man, and (as I repeat, with exceeding respect for the epithet) a thorough man of business. " The Parson's Daughter," although founded upon an incident the introduction of which, to say the least of it, we may style objectionable, is the more interesting story of the two, and possesses at least the merit of making the best of a bad business. Parson Garland, the old gentleman of the old school, the lonely widower devoted to a somewhat unworthy son, is a beautiful character very tenderly depicted. Disappointed in his hopes of a daughter, he looks forward to the day when his son's wife shall fill the vacant place in his home and his heart, and realise his ideas, founded on a remembrance of his lost wife, not only of a perfect woman but of a perfect gentlewoman. How cruelly and abruptly those tender aspirations are set aside, how different is the reality from the expectation, we shall not here particularise. We do not wish to spoil the interest of a very interesting story. Suffice it to say, that Parson Garland, with a resolute though half-broken heart, takes up his cross and conscientiously devotes himself to the ful filment of a self-imposed duty, and in the fulfilment of that duty finds a recompense that more than realises his fondest hopes and expectations. The unostentatious self-denial exhibited by the worthy parson is portrayed with exceeding simplicity and tenderness. The character of Charlotte Dean is also admirably well drawn, and the reader fol lows her painful history with great interest. A melancholy atmosphere pervades both the tales in these volumes. It could not be otherwise, perhaps, seeing that each of the " Two Marriages" is an illustration of the evil consequences of a union not founded upon right principles. Two Centuries of Song ; with Critical and Biogra phical Notes. By Walter Thornbury. One vol. Illustrated. Sampson Low, Son, and Marston. This very magnificent volume, with its gorgeous binding, and its many illustrations, and its dainty coloured flower -wreaths encircling every page, makes its appearance very appropriately with the Christmas gift-books. It presents to us, gracefully and artistically arranged, a choice bouquet of sweets, not culled from the broad expanse of our poetical flower-garden, but selected from those exclusive par terres, dedicated during the last two centuries to the charming vers de socie'tj.—Lyrics, Madrigals, Son nets, and other Occasional Verses. " It is difficult," says Mr. Thornbury in his preface, "precisely to define what vers de societj really are. We have presumed them to be poems written for refined circles of educated people, and composed for friends, often on personal occasions." The collection com mences with three poems by George Wither. " The date of the death of that amiable poet," says the editor, " takes us back to within a very few years of the restoration. Nor," he adds, " was the frontier line drawn across the year 1660 at a mere venture ; for our vers de societe were mainly derived from the French, and introduced into England by those exiles who returned with Charles from Breda. With so much less genius than the Elizabethan writers, the gentlemen poets circa 1660-1670 wrote symmetrical lines and studied harmony and euphony, even if they neglected strength. Waller and his successors did not plant oaks nor pile pyramids; but it cannot be denied that they had taste and elegance. The Eliza bethan dramatists spent their time toiling at the forges of thought; courtiers like Waller amused themselves with the nlcr.. cJiuured - iubtleties of fancy's niarqueterie. Cowley and his confreres did not write verses more courtly, airy, or elegant than those of Slckling or Lo velace. The poets of the Restoration stand foremost in our selec tion merely because they mark a literary era and a special style." Three poems of George Wither are thus the first in this collection, and the three last are the " Ivy Green" of Charles Dickens, " D og's Epi taph," by Rev. G. Gleig, and "Everlasting Flowers," by Walter Thornbury. Everlasting flowers of various kinds and character he has indeed presented to us in this very beautiful volume! Many of the poems are prefaced by critical and biographical notes on their respective, authors, and if here and there we trace evidences o haste in, the gathering to- gether, or ant of care in the arrangement of the materials, those blemishes are soon forgotten in the abundant beauties of the entire collection. WILLIAM COBBETT'S "HISTORY OF THE PROTEST ANT REFORMATION"—a complete edition in a pocket volume of 288 well-printed pages—has just been issued from the press by James Duffy, of Dublin and London, at the marvellous price of sixpence ! Remembering what Cobbett's " History of the Protestant Reformation" is—namely, one of the most vigorously and idiomatically written books in the English language—a perfect masterpiece of rhe torical composition—a history that speaks of spades as spades, allowing of no euphemisms or circumlo cution whatever—au argument irresistibly logical throughout—always proving its various statements clause by clause, paragraph by paragraph, with the cl3arness of a series of syllogisms—the fact of the publication of such a work as this, of a work an swering any such description (and, viewed dispas sionately, it will be found to answer it to a 'l', to the minutest tittle)—the fact, we say, of the publica tion of such a masterpiece for the " ridiculously small amount" of sixpence, is of itself one of the most notable achievements on the part of any of our publishers in the furtherance of the great enter. prise of cheap and sterling literature. SOONER OR LATER.--By Shirley Brooks, has reached its third number with the magazines of January. As cleverly written as either " The Silver Cord" or " Aspen Court," and in the conversational parts of it almost as humorously written as " The Naggletons," this new story of the ablest writer now on the Punch staff—now, that is to say, that both Jerrold and Thackeray have loncr since passed from the scene, improves upon acquaintance, with this one drawback, however, that there seems to us to be a rather alarming prospect of the readers, one and all (readers both young and fair, no less, of course, than those who are both old and dark) being introduced sooner or later to the denzi-monde, and by (of all creatures in the world) those two darling little toddles, Mopes and Dormouse.

Sin,—Mr. Beales says, " I deny that the Reform League has accused Mr. Lowe of charging the en tire working class of this country with venality, drunkenness, or other misconduct." The following resolution was moved and carried at almost all the meetings held by the League : " That this meeting desires to enter a solemn protest against and a denial of the charges of Tenality, ignorance, drunkenness, and indifference to Reform, brought against the working classes in the last session of Parliament." No one can doubt that this is pointed at me; and every one who has read the quotation in Mr. Beales'o letter knows that these words referred to the lower part of the constituencies in which venality and other misconduct exist, and not, as the resolution says, to the working classes. First, the meaning of the passage was perverted by leaving out all reference to the constituencies• For this Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright had to apo logise in the face of the House of Commons. That the device was adopted of protesting against words which were never used in the connexion which the protest assumes. The Reform League might have stated what I really said, and the inference I droll from it. They preferred to protest against what they well knew I did not say. They had a choice between truth and falsehood ; for the purpose of working 073 the minds of the people they preferred falsehood; they must abide by their choice, and endure the exposure they have deserved.—l am, sir, your obo' dient servant, ROBERT LO„E• Drayton Manor, Jan. 9.
