CRYSTAL PALACE.-GREAT ROSE SHOW, Fashionable Promenade, and German Gymnastic So ciety's Display THIS DAY. This is the most interesting of all the flower shows held during the season. The Universal admiration of the national flower, its numberless varieties, ranging from purest white to sable, its delicious odour, and the immense number of specimens collected, com bine to render the Rose Show pre-eminent among the flower shows of the season. It was at the Crystal Palace that the first Rose Show was held, and each year some new attractive feature has been introduced. The Exhibition of Table Decorations held at the last Flower Show, although of great interest, did not exemplify some of the Principal features of floral decoration. Arrangements have been made with some of the leading manufacturers to make upon this occasion a special Display of Table Furniture, which will be florally decorated so as to illustrate these special features. The Display will take place in the Opera Theatre, which will be handsomely fitted up as a dining room. In the Concert-hall there will be an exhibition of articles suitable for table decorations, contributed by the following eminent manufacturers—Messrs. Powell and Sons, Copeland, H. Green and Son, and Mortlock, Fellatt and Co., and James Green. The great stage will be specially decorated with fountains, foliage, statuary, &c. Music is an important feature on these occasions ; and, in ad dition to the usual performances during the day by the or chestral and military bands, at 4 o'clock a grand combined performance will take place on the Grand Handel Orchestra, conducted by Mr. Manns. At half-past five the German Gymnastic Society will give its Annual Display on the floor of the great transept. Nearly 200 of the most expert gymnasts of the Society go through their various exercises and feats, commencing with drill and mass exercises, and including boxing, fencing, parallel, and horizontal bar exercises, etc, The graceful ease and modesty with which these gentlemen gymnasts go through their numerous difficult feats is very pleasing as compared with the less skilful perfor luaneee of professional acrobats. The Coldstream Guards Band, under Mr. F. Godfrey, will play during the display. Admission at doors, ss. Guinea season tickets free. GERMAN GYMNASTIC SOCIETY'S ANNUAL DISPLAY, THIS DAY, after the Rose Show, com mencing at 5.30, in front of the Handel Orchestra, and continu ing until half-past 7 o'clock.

Magnificent Display of Fire works and special Illumination of Great Fountains, Terrace Fountains, Water Temples, and entire Park. Grand as the fireworks are, it is only because allied with the displays of fountains, the terraces, statuary, flower beds, and the beautiful structure of the Palace itself, that they become so unsurpassable. Attempts, at firework displays elsewhere sink into insignificance when compared with those given at the Palace, where the place itself gives the displays their chief charm. The Pyrotechnic Display will include—the Great Floral Devices (100 feet in diameter) ; a Special Set Piece appropriate to the occasion ; immense Cascades of Fire, Mammoth Coloured Shells, Parachute Rockets, Magnesium Balloons, and all the startling effects of recent displays.

"It is a straightforwardly and sometimes gracefully written Sketch of Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, from the holiday traveller's point of view, not, however, exclusively devoted to matters of scenery or itinera r y , but designed to give the voyager an intelligent interest in the manners, customs, industries, and institutions of the districts he is exploring. Fm intending visitors to Norway especially, Mr. Spender's book will be welcome. It has, moreover, the decided advantage of com pression, clearness of style, and easy manageableness of bulk."— Daily Telegraph. "The volume perfectly fulfils its purpose. It is neat and cheap and contains in a small space a great quantity of very interesting matter, much of which will be novel, and all of which will be useful, not only to those who visit the places described, but to those who stay at home. Mr. Spender is an acute observer, a most industrious and judicious collector of facts, and an eloquent and graphic writer, and does ample justice to his subjects."— Yorkshire Post. "It deserves a welcome, this book we have so long uncon sciously been in search of. The itineraries themselves are to the intending excursionists a veritable benefaction. . . Altogether the book is one to carry in one's knapsack or valise during the happy time of our holiday excursion, and to give a place to on our book-shelves afterwards as a most pleasant remembrancer." —Sun " Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is a very delightful little book. The essay on Norway is particularly full of information, but the others are not far behind it iu proportion to their length, and all are written in a genial spirit."—Globe. " Without being exactly a guide-book, it answers all the pur poses of one, and contains beside a vast quantity of information, all given in the most condensed form possible. There is not a line of space wasted in fine writing, but the descriptions of scenery bear witness to the author's genuine love and appreciation of the picturesque, just as his closely compressed facts and statements prove the practical and hardworking man of letters."—Man chester Courier. " From back to back Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is full of matter interesting equally to the tourist and the ordinary reader. It is written in an easy and pleasant style, and is well got up."' — Eastern Morning News. " We cannot part with this fascinating little work without con gratulating Mr. Spender upon it. Addressed, as it more especially is, to travellers in Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, it is, nevertheless, a book that will afford the keenest gratifica tion to the general public. . . . As to its literary merits we need say nothing, the name of the author being sufficient guarantee on this point."—Western Mail. " The articles shew unusual power of observation, are full of genial gossip, and supply just what the excursionist wants — reliable information."—Western Daily Press.

By Edward Newman. F.L.S., F.Z.S. Giving a full description of the perfect insect from nature also a description of the Caterpillar, Chrysalis, Food Plant, Time of Appearance, and Localities where found. each moth is drawn from nature by George Willis, and engraved in his best style by John Kerchner. The figures are life-size of every species; and if varieties require it, three, four, five, and, even six figures are given. The work is complete in thirty-one monthly numbers, at 6d. each. The work is also issued in quarterly parts, in covers, at ls. 6d. each part. Part X. now ready, price 2s, Back numbers reprinted, and may be had. "We congratulate British entomologists on the completion and publication of this magnificent work."—Field. "Both to the beginner and the proficient in that study this work will be invaluable."—Daily/ Telegraph. " It is illustrated with life-size figures from nature of each species, and of the more striking varieties, and it possesses great advantages over all similar works, inasmuch as the caterpillar of each moth, with his habits and season, is described. This, to collectors, will be an immense boon, and by its means they will be enabled to obtain many rare specimens."—Standard. "The completion of Mr. Newman' work on the British Moths is a benefit to entomologists of all classes. It is at once a text-book by a high authority, most valuable for reference, and a handsome, taste fully got-up volume, which will be an ornament to any library or drawing-room table. It embodies the results of many years' earnest and intelligent work by one whose reputation as an ento mologist deservedly stands high. . . We notice also with satisfaction that Mr. Nevrman's descriptions, whilst thoroughly scientific and minute, are given in plain and unaffected English. With the help of these and the very excellent woodcuts, even a very young collector may with ease identify any moth he may cap ture. The figures are so well drawn that there is no need of colour . "to - render - theta life-like. . . . We unhesitatingly commend this volume to our readers. We regard it as LL very useful addition to our library." Land and Waler, Oct. 9. London—W. TWEEDIB. 337.

In one of his letters to a provincial paper Mr. Edmund Yates gives a number of interesting particulars about the late Mr. Dickens. Referring to the way in which the deceased author edited Allthe Year Round, Mr. Yates says : It was the fashion to say that many of us, who for fifteen years had been the staple contributors to this journal, tried to imitate our great master; but the fact is, that much of what was supposed to be mere imitation was a touch in serted by the master-hand during his revision of the proof. One day a week he devoted to " makirq up " the number coming up regularly from the country for the purpose, and selecting the articles, in co-operation with his son, who has for some time been his acting editor. He was, indeed, very regular and methodical in all his work, sitting down to write about ten, and rising from his desk between one and two, when, after a slight luncheon, he would start for a twelve mile walk with some favoured companion. How many ti me s have I traversed that Kentish country with him, hanging on his words, and prouder of his notice and his friendship than of anything else in my life. Now would we go over the gaunt dreary marshes where once we were nearly benighted ; now through Cobham Park, to which, by Lord Darnley's permission, Mr. Dickens had access, and where there is in the midst of the velvety glades and overhung by arching trees, a grim family mausoleum, which always seemed to me to be the prototype of that one at Chesney Weld, Sometimes on a hot day we would stop for a refreshing draught at the Leather Bottle in Cobham, where it will be recollected Mr. Tupman found solace in the cares of life, and sometimes we would go into Roches ter—henceforth' and for evermore to be recognised as Cloisterham—where we would wander about the Cathe dral or round the ruins of the Old Castle. Throughout these walks the conversation never flagged for a moment—comments on the events of the day ; stories told with a wonderful touch of humorous exaggeration ; anecdotes suggasted by the locality through which we were passing ; clear and prompt decision on matters submitted to his judgment—all this he poured forth as he walked, stopping now and then to call attention to some distant prospect, some effect of light and shade, or some eccentric character on the road. One most remarkable fact about him was the deep interest which he took in his friends' work, and the time he would give up and the trouble he would take 'in aiding them. A month ago I went to him, as was my wont when about to commence a new story, giving him an outline of the plot, and asking his opinion of it. He praised it very warmly, but on coming to dine with me a few days after, he placed a written paper in my hand, saying, " I have been thinking about what we talked over the other day . , and I have jotted down some thing which I think will give rather a good turn to the story." When I opened the paper at night I found he had filled a page with a very valpable suggestion. The readings given by Mr. Dickens throughout the country have familiarised his face and figure to all his countrymen ; but those who would know what he was in earlier life will find an excellent reproduction of Mr. Maclise's admirable picture of him prefixed to the original edition of " Nicholas Nickleby," whilst an almost equally good portrait of him at the same period was painted by Miss Gillies, and is engraved in Hazlitt's " New Spirit of the Age."

ECONOMICAL There is an amusing story afloat that • the Admiralty has been outwitted again—not by a contractor, not by a fraudulent store-clerk, not by a purchaser of old anchors, not by a marine-store dealer, and not even by Sir John Dalrymple Hay, but by a discharged dockyard elefk. The basest Tory, the mildest Whig, the wildest Fenian, and the totally unpolitical Briton alike will smile when they hear that that in jured individual, the dockyard clerk, has at length revenged himself upon the omniscient and unerring Board which now sits at Whitehall, and has for some time sought to erase his class from the catalogue of human beings. Yes, this man h as actually cast to the winds a large portion of the savings effected by the ; reductions of clerks, and has done the Admiralty out of re thana,ooo. The story is briefly told. The hero of it was discharged from the - service at Devonport some months ago, with disgrace, and without pension, his offence being that he wrote scurrilous articles in a local newspaper, directed against his official superiors. He again and again appealed for a pension, but was as often refused. An idea struck his clerical mind. H e wrote to the authorities at Whitehall, proposing to com mute his pension (as if it had really been granted) for a fixed sum of money, according to certain new regulations, carefully avoiding any allusion to his former correspondence. Into this trap one of the clerks at Whitehall, who has recently b een elevated on account of rare merit, fell.

SAVAGE ASSAULTOLICE ON LORD LENNOX BY PMAN. At the Windsor Petty Sessions on Thursday, Thomas White, a supernumerary policeman, was charged with assaulting Lord Francis Charles Gordon Lennox, an ensign and lieutenant in the 2nd Battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, now stationed at the Vi c t o ria street Infantry Barracks. There was cross summons against Lord Lennox, charging him with assaulting White. Both cases were taken together. Mr. H. Darvill, town clerk of Windsor, appeared on behalf of Lord Lennox, and Mr. Brummell Smith for White. Colonel Lord Abinger and several officers of the 2nd Battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, and Colonel Marshall, of the 2nd Life Guards, were present excite great nterest. Mr. Darvill, in opening the case, said it appeared that about twelve or half -past twelve o'clock on the morning of the 19th of June Lord Francis Lennox had charge of his brother's four-in-hand, which he had driven to the gates of the infantry barracks for the purpose of taking in some rugs, his intention being to drive from there back to the Castle Hotel, and whence his brother intended to take it back to Maidenhead. When Lord Lennox had arrived at the gates of the infantry barracks he pulled up the herses and saw one of the privates of his regiment dragged by the policeman and a soldier into the barracks or towards the gates, and the defendant kicking or striking the soldier. His lordship, seeing that the man was ill used, expostulated, and pointed out with his whip to the sergeant of the guard the way in which the soldier was being treated. Upon that the sergeant of the guard came up and immediately restrained the defendant from kicking and striking the soldier. The defendant then got up on the box of the drag, took out some hand cuffs, an d proceeded to handcuff Lord Lennox a most' extraordinary proceeding. He did not, however, succeed. When the sergeant of the guard and others saw the violent conduct of the defendant, and that he was seizing. Lord Lennox by the throat, they came up and pulled him down from off the drag. He was afterwards taken to the police-station, and a charge was entered against him for assault. He (Mr. Darvill) would be able to establish, by the clearest possible evidence, that Lord Lennox never struck the defendant with his whip at all, and that the assault upon Lord Lennox was a violent one and committed without the sligitest object. The case for White was that Lord Lennox had first assaulted him with his whip. After hearing a number of witnesses on both sides, the bench came to the conclusion that a most unprovoked assault had been committed upon Lord Francis Lennox, and fined White £l, and costs ill. 4s. 6d. The case against Lord Lennox was dismissed. There has been no death in Plymouth from small pox for more than fifteen months. THE SALE OF MACLISE'S PICTURES.—The large collection of sketches, unfinished pictures, and cartoons, left by the distinguished painter, D aniel Maclise, R.A., whose death occurred just before the opening of the pre sent Academy Exhibition, was begun yesterday by the Messrs. Christie and Manson. Of the pictures to be disposed of, the most interesting is the last work of the painter, " The Earls of Des mond and Ormond," which now hangs upon the walls of the Academy, where the great artist intended to give his work the last careful touches of finish. The sale of this picture will take place to-day (Saturday). It will be followed by the cartoons executed for some of the painter's large works in fresco in the Houses of Parliament, though there are none of his " Death of Nelson." One mag nificent cartoon of the full size for the fresco of the Battle of Waterloo, or rather " The Meeting of Wel lington and Blucher," at La Belle Alliance, after the battle, occupies the whole side of the gallery. The pic ture is, indeed, a monument of the painter, and an ex ample of English art which is worthy the most honour able place in the gallery of the Academy, or even the National Gallery. The picture of " Duncan's Last Sleep," with Lady Macbeth stealing in, shad ing the lamp with her hand, is a very striking work, more remarkable, however, for the figures of the two sleeping soldiers than for the' principal figures. The portrait of Macready as Macbeth is an interesting picture, and preserves the expression of t he g rest actor. " Macbeth with the Witches over the Cauldron " is another hig.hly dramatic work, left apparently unfinished. Many studies in oil from the life, and several admirable copies of the old masters, VelaSquez, Rubens, Rembrandt, and Watteau, for whom Maclise seems to have had a great fancy, attest the thoroughness of the eminent painter's study of his art. After the sale of Maclise's own collection, his large picture of the " Baron's Hall" is to be sold, by order of the Court of Chancery. This important work formerly belonged to Mr. Gibbons, of Athol House, near Birmingham. JUNE 2b, 1870. SKETCHES IN PARLIAMENT FRIDAY. The interest in the education debate seemed, yesterday afternoon, to have fallen with the temperature. Instead of the densely crowded benches which there were on Thurs day week, Monday, and . Tuesday, there were, at the re sumption of the debate, great gaps in the ranks of black coats, white waistcoats, and white hats. May I be pardoned for suggesting that the absence of so many members was due to the foreknowledge of the fait that Mr. Dixon was to take up his parable? One might have expected that he, the life and the soul of the Birmingham League, would be sure of a good audience. But Mr. Dixon is not an orator, and as all the world knew the line that he would take up, there was not even the anticipation of curiosity as to what he would say. Hon. members who absented themselves cannot be said to have lost very much. He spoke for an hour:and a quarter, and it seemed a very long hour and a quarter. Radical mem bers cheered him, and loud above all others was the " Hear, hear," of Professor Fawcett. The Professor and Mr. Dixon usually sit upon the same bench —the front row below the gangway—and near these two are usually to be found, except when the Irish members muster in force, Sir Charles Dike, Mr. Vernon Har court, Mr. Locke, and Mr. James White. The last named gentleman has not been seen much of late. No doubt he shares in such weather as we have had the fear which Hamlet felt as to the dissolving and melting of " this too too solid flesh." His absence leaves room for two other members, which is an ad vantage on occasions like the education debate. Mr. Dixon complained that the Government having first of all introduced a bill framed with the idea of allowing the denominational system to die out in course of time, had so altered their measure that it rendered the system permanent, a complaint enforced by emphatic cheers from the Radicals. Then he went on to sundry other com plaints very wearisome to hear, and the reporters laid down their pens and gossipped. At last (the time was four minutes past six), the member for Birmingham sat down, and simultaneously there jumped up half a dozen members in various parts of the house. That was a sorry sight to see, it seemed as though there were no chance of the debate terminating that night, though' every one had supposed it would. During Mr. Bruce's speech a certain magnificent rajah, magnificent as to his costume, that is, for he himself was not much to look at—rose and left the House. His highness had sat there the observed of all observers, just above the clock, the place assumed by royalty on the' few occasions when royalty cares - to be present. He was dressed in light grey muslin tunic, looking refreshingly cool, and a scarlet turban, the one bit of bright colour in the mass of black and white. Oriental, and, therefore, scrupulously polite though he was, he could not resist many a yawn as our enlightened legislators proved with wearisome minuteness what peril there was in teaching a child that he believed in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth. Mr. Bruce is not a lively speaker ; but he was eloquence itself com pared with Mr. Dixon. He scouted at the outset the idea that the Government ever meant to supersede the present system ; they intended only to supplement it in those districts—the verypoor agricultural parishes and the large towns—where the voluntary system did not suf fice. Turning his back upon the Speaker, he addressed himself to the Radicals, and his speech was an answer to their various arguments, especially to those raised by Mr. Richard, his old rival at Merthyr. He told them that the jealousy of the parson had a great deal to do with their opposition, and they ought to remember that they were better off even in that respect than they were before, since if the clergyman were a man of extreme views, he would not be elected to the school-board. He rebuked the Radicals for their want of faith in their own pet principle, the Ballot, as soon as it was applied. The strongest point of his case was when he shewed that in Ireland the model country of the Secularist, where religious and secular education are kept distinct in the Government schools, the system had altogether failed, and the result was that three quarters of the children were now in denominational schools, a pretty clear proof that the growth of public opinion is not in favour of the secu lar system. Mr. Bruce was very much cheered when, in reply to Mr. Miall's objection that the system would not last 20 years, he said, give us but five, and wo will cover the country with schools. He admitted that he had little faith in compulsion, and then amid much applause he expressed the mortification of the Government at the fact that though Dr. Playfair had endeavoured to carry his debate into the wide issues in volved by the bill, the great majority of the speakers had altogether sunk its national character into a miserable theological dispute, interesting enough to the ministers of religion, but utterly without interest to the parents of the children for whom Parliament is endeavouring to legislate. Mr. Bruce also repeated, with no little fervour, Mr. Hardy's question how the children are to be taught religion if they are not taught it in the school. He sat down after over an hour's speech. By this time the House was very thin, and con• sequently the number of members who rose to speak was not so large as before. There were cries of Henley, and the Speaker attended to them and called upon the highly respected M.P. for Ox fordshire, who is I believe now the Father of the House. He bears his years well, and there is many a man several years his junior who looks older. At first it was impos sible to hear anything that he said, but he soon strengthened in voice, thanks to the kind aid of a friendly M.P. who went out to fetch a glass of water. Mr. Henley made a speech even more distinctively re ligious than those which had gone before. It was followed by one from Mr. Charles Reed, the Dissenting M.P. for Hack ney, and one of the most regular attendants of the House. He, too, paid no heed to Mr. Bruce's mortification, but argued the measure solely from the ecclesiastical stand point. He spoke of tyranny on the part of the clergy, but his charges would have been more relevant if the clergy had not surren dered the power to be tyrannical by accepting a conscience clause. Towards the close of his speech the division in the camp of the Radical Opposition whereof rumour had been talking for the last 24 hours, became apparent. Mr. Reed was compelled to protest strongly, not only against secular education, but against the speech of that incarnation of the Liberation Society, Mr. Miall. It was seen from this clearly enough that the Dissenters were by no means at unity among themselves, and that while Mr. Richard and Mr. Miall, animated by a common hostility to the Church, could unite for the purpose of obtaining a secular education, Mr. Morley and Mr. Reed, whose love for religion is stronger than their hatred of the Church, would not accept secularism. With them, a little later in the even ing, Mr. Edward Baines joined himself. He, so far from denouncing denominational education, declared that deno minations were the natural fruit of religious liberty in this country, and he promised that he would support the Government bill. He was preceded by Mr. Hibbert, whom, though he sits on the benches behind the Govern ment, no one can accuse of any lack of religious Liberalism. He made a good point by quoting against Mr. Richard and Mr. Miall the reply of Mr. Binney, when he refused to join the League on the ground that to establish a secular system would be the tyranny of a minority against the great mass of the Eng lish people. The member for Oldham then took the sub ject out of the religious category, and discussed the ques tion of compulsion, urging that it should be made universal, and not merely permissive. Mr. Gordon is a member not often heard in the House, and as a Scotch university member it was fitting that he should reply to Dr. Playfair, After Mr. Baines came Lord Sandon. His father, the hand some Earl of Harrowby, had been in the Peers' Gallery during the early part of the evening ; but seeing the large number of members who rose every time that a member sat down, he left the house, thinking probably that there was little chance for his son. Lord Sandon, who repre sents the borough that Lord Harrowby represented after the passing of the first Reform Bill, speaks well, and the House is always ready to listen to him. No little merri ment was excited when he asked the Government to give some security that their promise with regard to the increased grants, in lieu of the building grants, would be fulfilled. Lord Sandon was quite willing to trust Mr. Forster, but how if Mr. Forster should be sent asAmbassador to Japan, PRICE Id STAMPED 2d. and that universal favourite, Mr. Ayrtou, should become Education Minister? That was not more improbable than that the right hon. gentleman, while professing un bounded contempt fer architects and market gardeners, should become First Commissioner of Works. To Lord Sandon succeeded that very rising young Chancery barrister, Mr. Winterbotham, the only member who has had the courage and the ingenuity to devise a non-sectarian religious education, and which he says may be stated in three lines. "Be honest, industrious, and true. Little children love one another. Do unto others as you would .they should do unto you." Mr. Winterbotham declared his allegiance to the Richard-Miall wing of the Non con'ormist party, chiefly because the Government intended to perpetuate the denominational system. A reference to education - in Ireland, and the lateness of the hour made members impatient. It had been hoped in the early part of the evening that there would be a division last night, and some members still Cherishing the hope gave. Mr. Winterbotham a broad hint in the shape of a chorus of "'vide." Such happiness was not in, store for the House. Stately Lord John Manners was the tie xt speaker, and he, while promising to support the Government in going into Committee, indicated several amendments of a decidedly Conservative character, such as the abandon ment of the ballot in electing the school-boards, which he meant to propose. Black-bearded Mr. Mundella, who has sprung from the lowest of the ranks which Lord John Manners once bid perish,in order that our old nobility might survive, then moved the adjournment of the debate. This proposition did not much please the House. They would sooner have Mr. Mundella's speech over at once than have to go to bed and dream about it, and then awake and endure it the next morning. Surely it was time to divide, and a good many hon. members said so. Not those who had not yet made their speeches, and the multitude of these was still so great that, after some remarks from Sir Ranald Knightley and Mr. Walter, Mr. Gladstone assented to an adjournment on the understanding that the vote should be taken to-day. For those who were not tired out there was a lively scene in store. In the small hours of the morning, when daylight was filling the House, there was a fierce battle, fortunately not with, but about, guns ; and the country squires whose power of " staying " in every sense of the word, sporting and literal, is always greater than that of the commeiial members, who have their business to do by day, divided and divided again until they won a victory, in the glow of which all other defeats about the Irish Church and the Irish land seemed pale and insignificant. They carried an amendment to Mr. Lowe's Gun-tax Bill, whereby a landowner carrying a gun on land in his own occupation shall be exempted from paying the tax. The tax was only ten shillings 3, year ; but it was not the amount,but the principle—the principle that the landowner is a privileged person—which the squirearchs prized ; andso, shortlybeforethree this morning a joyful shout rent the air and arousedthe sleepy reporters. Really the delight was so keen and so pleasant to witness that no one would think of grudging to the party who have few triumphs nowa days, the ten shillings which this one cost. and Malvern.

In connection with the collision which occurred between two railway trains near Newcastle a deed of true heroism is recorded. When the collision took place, one of the engines received such a shock that its connection with the carriages behind was severed, and the engine driver and stoker were thrown off. The engine kept the rails, and dashed along towards Newcastle at a high rate of speed. The driver of another engine, named Steel, on seeing what had occurred, at once started in pursuit. He overtook the runaway about the Manors Station, and, at the risk of his life, springing from his own engine on to the other, managed to stop it just a few yards before entering the Central Station, Newcastle, where, but for the success which attended Steel's bravery, serious mischief would doubtless have been done. LORD ARTHUR PELHAM CLINTON. We are in a position to give a trustworthy account of Lord Arthur Pelham Clinton's fatal illness. He was staying at the King's Arms Hotel, Christchurch, when on Monday, the 13th inst., Mr. Wade, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Fitzmaurice, was called to see him. He found him suffering from sore throat and other symptoms of scarlet fever, which has been widely prevalent in the neighbourhood. Lodgings in the village were procured for him, and thither he was safely removed. The disease, though virulent, ran a normal course, and the patient appeared to be gaining ground up to the morning of Thursday, the IGth, when ischuria supervened. Dr. R. Thompson was quickly in attend ance from Bournemouth, and, by the evening, the renal function was restored. The patient, however, had sunk very low, and, in spite of the free administration of stimulants, failed to rally. Telegrams were immediately despatched to his friends, and on Friday morning Mr. W. H. Roberts, his solicitor, arrived. After a short interval, he declared, in presence of Mr. Wade and Mr. Roberts, that the letter drawn up and since published by the letter was, in every particular, true. He was too exhausted to add his signature ; but his mind was quite clear enough to apprehend its full meaning. He was seen again in the evening by Dr. Roberts Thompson ; and at five minutes past one on Saturday morning he died, in presence of his medical attendant, the landlady, and Mr. Newlyn, jun., of the King's Arms Hotel. —Lancet. ADVENTURES OF A. SHIPWRECKED CREW. The ship Silvercraig has arrived in Liverpool with six of the crew of the iron ship Mercurius, which was wrecked on the Roccas reef, in the South Atlantic, on the 25th of March. The Mercurius left San Francisco for Liver pool on the 15th of January, and all went well until the 25th of March, when she was driven on to the Roccas Reef, and became a total wreck. Although all the boats managed to leave the i3hip, only one succeeded in reaching the shore and then in a very damaged state. The rocks at high water are completely covered, and the only dry spot is a raised sandbank. The six survivors, on reaching terra firma, at once surveyed their position, and found the reef abound ing with wreckage, amongst which they discovered four water tanks, belonging to the London and Australian. clipper Duncan Dunbar, which was lost, with 80 passen gers, on the same reef, about two years ago. In one of the tanks they fonnd some fresh water, which, with a copious fall of rain at intervals, answered all their culinary requirements. Nothing in the shape of provisions was saved from the wreck, and for fifty-one days these six castaways supported themselves by turtle, what fish they could catch by the aid of a bent nail and a piece of cord, birds' eggs, and young birds. For shelter against the inclemency of the weather and their ex posed position they erected a hut from the wreck of the Duncan Dunbar—a portion of which was still visible—and other vessels, whose names will probably be for ever a mystery. To this wooden structure they fastened a pole, and attached to it an old shirt, as a signal of distress to any vessels that might happen to pass within sight of the Roccas Reef. They re mained on this desolate spot for 51 days, when the Silvercraig happened to pass within sight of the reef, and observed the signal. The vessel was at once hove to, and the six poor fellows—who, though not badly off so far as bodily condition was concerned, were sadly out of wearing apparel—put off to the Silver craig in two small boats, which they had managed to put together from the wreckage found on the reef. Although they were for fifty-one days on the rocks no vessel was sighted but the one which picked them up on the 15th of May. The Mercurius was a fine iron clipper ship of 839 tons. PRINCESS'S THEATRE.—Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales and suite honoured the French plays with their presence on Thursday evening.

THE WORKMEN'S INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION OF 1870. —The Queen has consented to become patroness of the Workmen's International Exhibition, which is to be opened early in July at the Agricultural Hall, Islington. Her Majesty has also been pleased to express a hope that she may be able to visit the Exhibition in which she has so graciously expressed her interest. MISS ELISE HOLT, THE ACTRESS.—The following communication has been addressed to some of the papers by Miss Holt :—" The fact has been published of my having been a party concerned in " a cowhiding " affair which occurred while I was in America. Such an an nouncement was utterly devoil of truth. While in America I obtained my professional popularity by my labours as an actress, and was never compelled, I am proud to say, to resort to anything in the shape of a cow hiding sensation." Dean Howson, of Chester, who was for many years the principal of the Liverpool College, does not believe in the existence of a religious difficulty. He says that when he was principal, though the masters of the college were members of the Church of England, and though the rules of that Church were observed in the religious discipline of the school, exemption was always made if Dissenting parents required it in regard to doc trinal teaching, and the result was that in 1863 the pro portion of Dissenting boys in the upper school was 10 per cent., in the middle school 20 per cent, and in the lower school 30 per cent„ and that no practical difficulty was experienced by the masters. _
