JOURNEY TO ROME AND BACK, WiTII AN ACCOUNT OF TEE OPENING OF THE (ECUMENICAL COUNCIL, AND GLANCES AT MILAN, FLORENCE, NAPLES, POMPEII, AND VENICE. BY WILLIAM DIM. STANFORD, Charing Cross. Price 418:11d - " Mr. W. Evill has written a lively and agreeable account of 'A Winter Journey to Rome.' His descriptions of scenery in the Alps 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 ono—of placing familiar scenes in a fresh and agreeable light . . . . The book has the merit of being thoroughly readable."—Pall Mall Gazette. "Having 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 dlineator 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. " &fr. 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. Evil!, 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. Evil 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, logo 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 glowinz terms, and the long ceremonies of the opening* of the (Ecumenical Council are forcibly described. His 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 hit pleasant recollec 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 city which still is queenlikc, 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 maim) life of modern Rome may grieve, but will not affront, .a liberal Roman Catholic, and may command the assent, but will not shook the better feelings, of a Liberal Protestant." — Illustrated London News.

Tyrwhitt Drake give the following particulars of some recent disturbances at Damascns "The massacre of Christians at Damascus ten years ago created an excitement over the whole of Europe, but with Tientsin and Sedan to . engross public attention such a trifle as a fresh outbreak in Syria has been quite overlooked. The events to which we allude occurred shortly after we had- left the country, but we have received full details from both native Christian and Mahomedan correspondents in Syria. On the 26th of August it was rumoured in Damascus that a general massacre of the Franks by the Muslim inhabitants was contemplated, and - affairs actually assumed so serious an aspect that most of , the Christians precipitately fled from the town. Open menaces were uttered, the fanatical part of the population became clamorous and evidently bent on mischief, and, indeed, the danger seemed imminent since the authorities took no steps to suppress the popular agitation, when, thanks to the energetic conduct of her Britannic Majesty's consul —upon whom the management of the affair devolved, as the other European representatives retired from the scene of action—who seems to have himself addressed the Turkish soldiery and insisted on proper steps being taken by the Government, the riots were quelled, and a most serious calamity averted. One of the causes which appears most to have excited the fanaticism of the mob . was the presence, in the streets of Damascus, of crosses chalked up on the most conspicuous places. On subsequent inquiry by the Government this was discovered to be the work of the Jews- the same people who during the former massacre distinguished themselves by standing at the doors of their houses and voluntarily offering lemonade to refresh the Mahomedans, hot and weary with the slaughter of Christians, and who in many well-authenticated instances offered aid and concealment to the terror-stricken Chris tians and then brought in the Turks to murder them. Some 300 of these Jews are under the protection of various European Consulates, and can thus with impunity laugh at the authority of the Turks and wreak their hatred on the co-religionists of their protectors." The committee of the Poor Clergy Relief Corpo ration have determined to open a special fund for the im mediate relief of Continental chaplains deprived of their income by the war. Contributions will be received at the London and Westminster Bank, St. James's-square, or by the secretary. THE CAPTAIN RELIEF FUND. —Her Majesty has contributed £lOO, Princess Louise and Prince Arthur £2O each, and Prince Leopold £l5, to the Captain Relief Fund. His Royal Highness the I 'rine° of Wales has contributed 50 guineas to the fund for the relief of the sufferers by the loss of the Captain. TIIE RUSSIAN ARMY.—The Czar of Russia hai sanctioned the new regulations for accelerating the mobilization of his army. They provide for the calling in of 427,297 men, 170,000 of whom come from Poland and the provinces of mixed nationality belonging to ancient Poland. ACCIDENT TO THE PRINCESS LOCISE.—Her Royal Highness Princess Louise has met with a slight accident, having sprained her knee. As perfect rest is required for her royal highness at present, her Majesty's return to the south may be delayed for a few days longer than was anticipated. MORMON IMMIGUATION.—III July, A ugust, and September; 1870, there arrived at Castle Garden, New York, upwards of -.800 immigrants who came to join the Mormons. Ten were Bavarians, 167 Swedes, 3 Saxons, 5 natives of the United States, 50 Welsh, 273 English, 41 Scotch, 243 Danes, 26 Norwegians, 8 Irish. A FAMOUS ORRYHOUND.—Lord Lurgau's cele brated greyhound, Master Magrath, whose career on the turf it was supposed had finished after his hollow defeat in England, has revived his past glories and gained new laurels by winning the Brownlow Cup at the Lurgan meeting on Friday. He defeated several of the principal winners at the last Liverpool meeting. Colonel C. L. D'A.quilar, C. 8., has assumed the com mand of the Royal Artillery in the southern district, vice Colonel Wodehouso, - deceased. The new commandant entered the army in 1838, and served in the Crimean and Indian campaigns. Admiral Sir Sydney C. Dacres, K.C.8., has returned to Whitehall after a brief official visit to Portsmouth, during which be was the guest of Sir James Hope, the coimnander-in-chief. Sir Sydney, after Divine Service on Sunday, went on board her Majesty's ship Hercules and made strict inquiries as to the cause of the late serious accident by which several men were injured. The Cologne Gazette notices that the captive French officers work actively in favour of the Orleanists. Certain agents abuse the name and generosity of the Duchess of Saxe-Coburg Cohary, née Princess of Orleans. The Prus sian Government has thought proper to inform the Duchess of this state of things. - TELE KING AND QUEEN ar SWEDNN. The King and Queen of Sweden went to Copenhagen on Saturday in order to be present at the baptism of the infant son their daughter Louisa, the Princess Royal of Denmark. They drove through the principal streets, which were decorated with flags, to the Palace of Amalienborg. King Charles XV. will stay until the 4th of November, to be present at the reception of the Prince Royal of Denmark by the Grand Lodge of Frennasons, whose Master Christian IX. is to be. A Bavarian soldier, in writing some details of the battle of Arthenay, says that after the tight those houses in the village which contained arms and ammunition were burned. In examining one of these before setting fire to it the soldier found a nott!.On . the kitchen table, written in German, to the following effect : —"Augustus Richter, of Leipsic, lived here, and has fled with his masters. my German brothers, do not injure us." These simple words produced so great an effect on those who read them that they obtained permission to spare the hbuse where their countryman had lived, The following is a full report of the speech of the President of the Committee of Council on Education at llipon on Friday night. To reply to the toast of her Majesty's Ministers, which was proposed by Archdeacon (Just, he said that although he had on many occasions previously returned thanks in that room on behalf of the Ministry, he never on any occasion rose to re turn thanks for that toast with such a great sense of responsibility as be felt at this moment. The events of the past few months had, indeed, been of the.most grave and startling character. These few months would have written on the page of history their story in colours more enduring than those of many years which had preceded them. He need not tell them what had been the re sponsibilities which had rested on any one who had even the mast limited part in the government of this great country during that time. Some seemed to have thought that task was comparatis e y an easy one, and that when two great and gallant nations were contending for the palm of victory on the field of battle, it was easy for those who stood aloof from the contest to interpose by their lightest word. They had, however, that evening been re minded of the proverbial consequences which attended on those who interposed untimely in quarrels. He could assure them that hex Majesty's Ministers had carefully watched every movement of that exciting con• test, that they might find an opportunity when they could wisely interpose their voices; but they deter mined that, in the name of England, they would not speak lightly—that they would not speak when they had not a fair reason to hope that justice might make their voice listened to. He did not say that they had waited till they knew that they should he heard, but he did say that they were bound to wait until the moment came when they felt that they could speak as they should be prepared to be spoken to, without a semblance of dictation, or with undue interference with questions of internal policy, when they felt that they could speak in the voice of humanity, and that they had a right to hope that a voice would be heard. He was sorry he could not say what might be the result of the efforts which had been made. They had heard that day of a tremendous event, which in the history of the past would have been thought one of incredible magnitude, but on which in these won drous days we look with complacency. The surrender of 150,000 soldiers of a nation as gallant as the French was most wondrous, but it had been almost eclipsed by those which had preceded it. We, who were not engaged in this struggle, could not but feel regret at the misfortunes of a gallant • people, but we might still hope that the capitulation may in itself work for the good end of peace. At the same time . we were ready to recognise the gallantry of Germany, while we were able to feel deeply for the misfortunes of France. It was not for them, in his opinion, to pronounce on these great events the final judgment of history. All we could do, and he believed it, was earnestly to pray the Almighty Disposer of Events that it might please Him to stop this terribly destructive war. England shewed the deepest sympathy by her charity for the sick and wounded of both the belligerents, and we most earnestly desired to see this contest brought to an early conclusion, which might place the peace of Europe on a sound and perma nent basis. The noble earl then alluded to the events of the last session of Parliament ? speaking in favour of the prospective working of the lush Land Bill and the Education BilL The latter he warmly eulogised as re cognising the religious element, without which there could be no real education, and which did not overturn what had as far as it went worked satisfactorily, and to which the element of compulsion had been ad.led. The noble earl resumed his seat ami.l loud applause. THE BISHOP OF PETERBOROUGH ON fIIE NEW SCHOOLS ACT. The Bishop of Peterborough addressed a large and in fluential meeting of the nobility, gentry, and clergy of the county of Northampton on Saturday last, on the above subject. His lordship said the present was a most critical moment in the history of education in this country. The Church of England had devolving upon it a very large and serious responsibility, for owing to her sisal and energy in the cause of education in past years, and of her readiness to avail herself of the Govern ment grant, which other religious communities .did nut feel themselves free to avail themselves of, she was at this moment educating some 75 per cent, of the children of this country. With respect to the rate paid schools, he would ask if the system of education was altogether satis factory to the Church, as regarded the religious element, for if it was, their meeting there for the purpose of pro viding the means for continuing distinct religious teaching was so much waste of time. The Church would have nothing to do but to hand over her schools to the State, to become rate-psid schools under the Act. The position of the Church in relation to those schools WAS that an attempt was about to be made to solve the problem, which he believed to be impossible, of teaching an indefinite Christianity. Such an endeavour, in his opinion, could result only in a yearly increasing secularism in the rate-paid schools. The more thoroughly honest those Boards were as representative bodies the less would necessarily be the amount of definite religious teaching in the schools, for the entrance of each new sect would require the surrender of the particular point which the new member did not hold. Without any desire therefore to say one unkind word, or to give vent to malignant prophecies, he felt that School Boards, by their very con stitution, would drift more and more into secularism. On that account religion was in great peril, he believed, from those rate-paid schools, and the Church would not be faithful to her great trust if she handed her schools over to them. The State distinctly recognised the right of the Church to maintain her schools, and to continue therein the distinctive religious teaching. He would urge upon Churchmen, however, that it was their duty as good citizens and good Christians not to withdraw from taking their place on any education board that might be formed. They owed it to the state to work any act of Parliament as loyally and honestly as they conscientiously could, and thcy owed it to the Church not to leave children com mitted to their charge in those schools, without seeing that they received as far as possible a religious education. With reference to their own denominational schools he must say he had never been amongst the number of those who had opposed a conscience clause, for having had considerable experience in the matter he never found tnat the time table conscience clause in the slightest degree interfered with his giving the children of his school a distinctively religious teaching, If there were any of his brethren amongst the clergy who felt that they were unable to receive a time-table conscience clause, he could but wish —and he . hoped it would not be taken unkindly—that their consciences were somewhat better instructed. That was not a matter on which he should attempt to dictate, but he would earnestly entreat all his rev. brethren, who did not regard it as a matter of supreme conscien- Vous duty, very seriously to consider the risk to their parishes, and to the Church there would be in continuing a hopeless rivalry with state-aided, rate-paid schools. If a clergyman who objected to the conscience clause kept up the school mainly at his own expense, there was this evil to be dreaded, that his successor in the parish might not be able or willing to keep up the school, and that the Church children might have no other choice but to go into the mate-paid schools. It was a very serious thing for any clergyman to think of refusing the Government grant and maintaining the school at his own expense, for his experience in Ireland was that when the clergy did this in opposition to national schools, the result was that a great many of their children got their education in Roman Catholic and Dissenting schools, and the children of the Church became in many districts the worst educated portion of the community. The Right Rev. Prelate earnestly urged the clergy not, in the first instance, to think of handing over their schools to the School Board, but to make an earnest effort to see if, by increased exerticns and liberality on the part of their parishioners, the present Church Schools could not be maintained in all their efficiency. [CENTRAL PRESS TELEGRAM.] The Bishop of Peterborough on Sunday preached a sermon in St. Martin's Church, Leicester, on behalf of the schools connected with that church. The congregation numbered over two thousand, and many persons were unable to obtain admission. In the course of his sermon the bishop referred to the prophecy of the fall of Babylon, which was caused through the prevention of knowledge. Alluding to education, he denied the accusation of un believers that knowledge was fatal to religion. There were some who had desired in education to keep back from the young God's gift of wisdom and knowledge ; but he hoped the Church would never fail to be what she :lad most assuredly been in the past, the most efficient helper in diffusing that knowledge, and in leading the way ie giving the people secular instruction. Above all it was the duty of the Church to see that the wisdom . and knowledge were not prevented. If we simply strove to make children sharp, clever, and knowing, : ::most assiu'edly there would fall upon this nation a very serious judgment, for breaking oh the yoke of Godliness. lie trusted that with the increasing intellect and spread of : - ..lowledge about to take place, there might also be an increase of spiritual wisdom. Otherwise he feared for the fate of the country. NAVAL AND . MILITARY INTE . ,LIGENCE. Audaciow, 14, iron -clad, Captain D. Spain, which was to have left Plymouth on Sunday for her station, Kings town, Ireland, with supernumeraries, has been ordered to remain at Plymouth for a day or two.

The weight is to be 12ewt., the bore 3'6in., weight of projectile, 161 b., and the charge of powder, 31b. FRENCH CAPTURES IN ENGLISH WATERS. The Government has, after four days' deliberation, sent an order to the Custom-house officials at Lowestoft, to release the North German ship Ketch Henreich, of Maldorff, captured by the French, and brought into Lowestoft Roads on Wednesday, and detained by the local authorities on the ground that she had no right to come into neutral waters. The conditions of the release are that the French shall proceed with the vessel forthwith beyond neutral waters, unless prevented by stress of weather from doing so. NEWS FROM INDIA.—A NEW MAIL ROUTE. The first homeward bound Indian Mail, by the new route, i.e., vhi Brindisi, Bologna and the Brenner Pass, Munich, Darmstadt, the Rhine and Belgium, arrived at the General Post Office at 4.30 p.m. on Sunday, in charge of Mr. Edmund Yates, who had been specially dis patched to Brindisi for the purpose. The in auguration of the new route was celebrated by a grand banquet given at Brindisi on Tuesday last, over which Signor Gadda, the Italian Minister of Public Works presided, at which the syndic of the town, the prefect; and sub-prefects of various neighbouring localities, the British and Austrian Consuls, M. Dela haute, the manager of the Adriatic Company's steamers, and Mr. Yates were present. The mail, which started on Wednesday night, made no halt anywhere, and was conveyed from Ostend to London by special steamer and special train. The news from Bombay extends to the Bth inst.

The deaths aro announced of Colonel Greenlaw, acting paymaster, Presidency Circle, Madras ; of Major Hodgson, of the 22nd Bombay N.I. ; and of Captain Ardagh, who held the appointment of deputy commissary of ordnance at Madras. LAW AND POLICE. A SHAMELESS ROBBER.—A young man, who gave his name as George Fathers, was charged, at Westminster Police-court, with stealing a number of live rabbits, some of which belonged to a policeman. On the 9th inst. th e rabbits were missed from the yard of 18, Lawrence-street, Chelsea, where they had been kept. One of the owners, named Bagers, went out shortly afterwards and imme diately met a man named Liston carrying some of the rabbits. Liston said the prisoner sold them to him. Prisoner : Your worship, he knew they were stolen. Another witness proved buying other rabbits of the prisoner. Prisoner: He is no better than the other, he knew they were stolen. Mrs. Kate MeCollack, a shop keeper, stepped forward and exhibited a charge against the prisoner for a robbery committed in August last. She said that prisoner and another man went into her shop to buy boots. Prisoner having laced a pair on soddenly made a bound from one end of the shop to the other, and darted off with the new boots, leaving his old The movement was so quick that the. prisoner escaped. Prisoner : Her boots were not worth sixpence . they dropped off my feet i a couple of days. Iflr. Woolrych : You area biaZeefellow to rob the woman of her boots and then slander her. You are remanded for a week. ones. ROBBERY ON THE RlVER.—James Bush, aged 56 years, a lighterman, of No. 25, Emerson-street,, 4 pankside, South wark, was brought up oU remand Itt Vic Thiimes Police court, charged with stealing two boxt of figs from: , a-barge named the Hannibal, on the'rivet:ThaleS. Mr. Pelham defended the prisoner. It appeared that Mr. Molten.had taken in a cargo of 200 boxes of firr 9 s at Fresl Wharf, and e - be noticed the prisoner pass over the bare, several times while he was loading her. He had occasion to leave the barge for an hcur, and on his return missed two boxes of fi.:s. He suspected the prisoner, who had gone up the river in a boat. Mr. Molten gave chase, and overtook him at Blackfriars Bridge. He accused him of the rob bery, and brought him back to the barge Hannibal, from which the figs were missing. A Thames police-constable was called, and the prisoner given into custody. He then took some figs out of his coat pockets, and threw them into the river. He was stopped, and 141bs. of figs wore taken out of hie pockets. He said he had found the figs on board a barge he had been navigating. That barge contained sand and bricks. Evidence was given as to the figs the prisoner had stolen corresponding with those on board the Hannibal. Mr. Pelham said many thousand drums and boxes of figs were brought into London daily, and that it was a case of unlawful possession. Mr. Paget thought otherwise, and committed the prisoner for trial for felony. On the application of Mr. Pella= ho admitted the prisoner to bail. A NIGHT CAB HORSE.—James Tinkler, cab-driver, badge 16,478, was brought before Mr. Flowers, at the Marlborough-street Police-court, with working a horse in an unfit state. An officer of the Royal society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, watching the case. Police-constable Brown, 214 C, was at the top of the Haymarket at one o'clock this morning, when his atten tion was called by two gentlemen to the defendant's horse. which was not fit for work, it having a large wound on the off hind leg. Mr. W. H. Dudley Ward, a gentleman, residing at No. 4, Queen's-gate-terrace, Hyde Park, stated that he got into a hansom cab, driven by the defendant, at the bottom of Regent-street, and after going about 50 yards found the horse was dead lame in the off hind leg, and he and his friend, who was with him, got out of the cab and spoke to the constable. The defendant said he was very sorry. He was a fresh man in tho cab line, having only driven for his master, Mr. Stevens, of Peter street, Westminster, a few days. Mr. Flowers said he would adjourn the case that the horse might be properly examined, so that it might be seen which was the most to blame, the defendant or his master. LORD MAYOR'S COURT. DEFRIES V. 11oLAND.—This was an action brought by Mesrrs. Defries, chandelier manufacturers, Houndsditch, to reoover £6O from Mr. Holland, the proprietor of the North Woolwich Gardens. The contract was to supply chandeliers and other ornaments for the pavilion iu which the recent prize Barmaid Show took place at the North Woolwich Gardens. The defendant did not pay the money nor appear to defend the A verdict therefore passed for the plaintiffs. An anonymousdon)r has given £l,OOO t o the National Consumption Hospital at Ventnor. MR, MORGAN M.P., IN DEFENCE OF FRANCE.- Mr. G. 0. Morgan, M.P., in addressing his constituents at Wrexham on Friday night, referred to his recent visit to Germany, Italy, and France. Before g•oing, he said, his sympathies were entirely with Germany, and he be lieved that the entire responsibility rested on the clique which had monopolised political power in France and sub ordinated everything to military glory. But events had changed, and so had his opinion. Germany was now fighting for territory, France for euistance, and he must be an unfeeling man who did not sympathise with a people under such circumstances.
