Westminster Abbey has received all that was mortal of Charles Dickens. The desire of our great humourist and the wishes of the nation have not been irreconcilable, and the venerable Abbey now adds to its monuments of worth and greatness the remains of one of the greatest writers the world has seen, and the most facile creator that, with one exception, England has yet produced. He who but a few days since made the heart beat with kindly sympathy, and opened the gates of genial love among thousands of English men and women has taken his place in Poet's Corner by the side of revered names, and heroic achievements. It is well that for once the unbending stiffness of Eng lish authority has yielded to the expressed wish of a nation, and that the people have the oppor tunity of visiting the resting-place of their friend. That much of this is due to Mr. Stanley, the gifted Dean of Westminster, we need not say. The preparations for the funeral had been conducted with such quietness that few, besides Mr. Dickens's family and those immediately connected with the Abbey, knew of the interment. Everything'was done with sim plicity and privacy, and although the name of our Gothic rainster had been prominently before the public since tho news of Mr. Dickens's death, it was only on Monday, we are informed, that the consent of the family was obtained. After the visitors had left the sacred building on Monday evening, the spot having been selected in Poets' Corner, the grave was dug. No one was present but those actually engaged in the work, and by this means the public were kept in complete ignorance of what was about to take place. A few minutes past 9 o'clock yesterday morning a hearse and two mourning coaches left the Charing-cross Railway Station and proceeded in the direction of the Abbey. As the unattractive cortege passed along Whitehall ay. one imagined that they were the remains of Charles Dickens, which were thus being conveyed to their final resting-place. The simple procession wended its way to the Abbey, entering the Dean's yard and passing into the Cloisters, which were reached exactly at half-past nine o'clock. Eight men bore the coffin from the hearse to the grave. The members of the family, Mr. Forster, the executor, the medical attendant, being altogether fourteen in number, formed the procession. The coffin was met at the entrance by the Dean, who read the whole of the service with the exception of the lessons, which were read by the senior canon in residence. The clergy who assisted the Dean in the service were the Ven. Archdeacon Jennings, the Rev. Canon Nepean, and the three minor canons in residence. As the procession entered the church the organ pealed fortb its solemn strains, but this was the only kind of music allowed during the ceremony. When the coffin was lowered into the grave the solemn notes of the organ again arose, and there was another solemn peal when all was concluded at the grave. The coffin was strewn with flowers as it was being let down into the grave. It bore the following simple inscrip. CHARLES DICKENS, BORN 7TH FEBRUARY, 1812. DIED 9TH JUNE, 1870. The spot chosen for the grave was exceedingly appro priate. It lies at the foot of Addison's statue. At the head of the coffin the ashes of Handel are interred, whilst the remains of Sheridan repose at the foot, and Cumber land, the dramatist, lies buried on the right hand. Imme diately above the grave, and overlooking it, is the bust of Thackeray. After morning service in the Abbey, when the fact that the funeral had taken place, became known, numbers of persons assembled at the grave, and fresh visitors con tinually arrived. IN MEMORIAM—A delicate yet touching tribute to the memory of the late Charles Dickens has just been prepared for the public by Messrs. Partridge and Cooper, the wholesale stationers of Fleet-street. They have, in space usually occupied by a monogram on the notepaper, placed a simple yet most impressive design to the memory of " Charles Dickens, our Mutual Friend," at once so pretty and affecting that the complimentary mourning no t e -paper will certainly supersede that hitherto generally used by the public to show respect for the memory of a loved and departed friend. "ALL THE YEAR ROUND."—The following fly-leaf accompanies the current number published yesterday of Charles Dicken's All the Year Bound :—Personal—lt was my father's wish, expressed in writing only a week before his death, that I, his eldest son, and latterly his assistant editor, should succeed him in the management of the journal so long associated with his name. In accordance with this clearly-expressed desire, and strong in the hope inspired by so encouraging a mark of his confidence, I addressed myself to the fulfil ment of the task which he appointed me to discharge. It is intended that the management of All the Year Bound in the future, shall be based on precisely the same prin ciplea as those on which it has, up to this time, been con ducted. The same authors who have contributed to its columns in time past, will contribute to them still. The same spirit which has in the past pervaded its pages will, so far as conscientious endeavour may render it possible, pervade them still. The same earnest desire to advocate what is right and true, and to oppose what is false and unworthy, which was the guiding prin ciple of my father's career, and wbich has always charac terised his management of All the Year Bound willl, I most earnestly hope, continue to be apparent in its every word. So much, then, being the same, it may not be presumptuous in me to hope that the same readers with whom this journal, and that which preceded it, found favour for so many years, may still care to see the familiar title page on their tables as of old. With this brief explanation of the course I pro pose to adopt, and omitting all reference what ever to my own personal feelings in connec tion with the great sorrow which has rendered this statement necessary, I leave the future journal to speak for itself. "It is better that every kind of work, [ honestly undertaken and discharged, should speak for itself than be spoken for." These are the words with which my father inaugurated the new series of All the Year Bound. I cannot surely do better than repeat them in this pIace.—CHARLES DICKENS, Jun. The death is announced of a gallant Peninsular veteran, Sir Thomas Trayton Fuller Eliott Drake, Bart., of Nutwell Park, Devon, a lineal descendant of the favous navigator, Sir Francis Drake. He was the third son of John Trayton Fuller, Esq., of Ashdown House, Sussex, his mother being Anne Eliott, only daughter of Sir Augustus Eliott, Baron Heathfield of Gibraltar, and was born February 8, 1785. He entered the army at an early age, and was at the battle of Corunna. He was en gaged in the Walcheren expedition, and in the Peninsular war of 1809 to 1812. London—W. Twszniz. 337. Strand.

TUESDAY, Notwithstanding the heat, the House of Commons was in its liveliest mood yesterday evening. The seats on both sides were filled, and as every member held in his hands the orders of the day, the effect of the dark forms speckled with white was somewhat curious. The list of questions was longer than we have had for many a day. There was only one of very great interest. It was Lord Robert Montagu who asked if the Government would not hold morning sittings in order to get through the Education BilL It is not usual for the' Opposition to shew any great eagerness for working double tide. As a rule, the Opposition does not like the mea sures which the Ministry bring forward : and even if it does not dislike them, it has no desire to see the Government win more laurels in the work of legislation than can be helped. But the Conservatives know perfectly well that the Education Bill is an exceptional measure, and that every day's delay is against them. Mr. Gladstone, too, thoroughly under stands the position, and wishes to put an end to an unde sirable agitation as soon as possible. So for once the leaders on both sides were agreed, and amid tokens of satis faction from both the front benches, the Premier announced that Lord Robert Montagu had only fore stalled the Ministerial announcement, and that it was intended to have morning sittings from Friday next, and to push on the bill with all possible speed. Under no circumstances was the announcement likely to give satisfaction to the Radicals: Last evening it only added fuel to the long smouldering fire of their discon tent. This broke out into a flame as soon as the House (at 5 o'clock) went into commit tee on the University Tests Bill. The seats below the right-hand gangway were closely packed, not, as before Whitsuntide, with Irish members ; for Mr. Maguire was, I think, the only one present, but with the very advanced Liberals and the Nonconformists, who even overflowed into the seats above the gangway. It was soon clear that there was to be a revolt on the part of these gentlemen against the Government. Mr. Lewis, M.P. for Devonport, was to have led the attack, but he withdrew from that position and occupied one of less prominence, though he continued to act with his own party. Lord Edmond Fitzmaurice who, a few nights ago delivered a very successful maiden speech, was the first to attack the bill. He urged that the aboli tion of tests should extend to the heads of houses, and he set forth his arguments with a good deal of skill, and abun dant fluency, mentioning, by the way, that a meeting had just been held at Balliol College to recommend this course. Mr. Gladstone, with his usual copia fandi, took seven minutes to say that Government wished to consider the matter, and that if the member for Caine would withdraw his motion for the present, he would have another opportunity of bringing it forward. This inti mation drew down the wrath of Sir Michael Hickes Beach, who told the Government that they had no will or policy of their own, but gave themselves up to the guidance of Professor Jowett. Thereupon up rose the Solicitor-General in mild anger, and he suavely repudi ated the charge brought against him by the member for East Gloucestershire. Nevertheless Mr. Mowbray and Lord John Manners reiterated it. Lord Edmond Fitzmaurice was not inclined to quarrel with the Premier on that account, and so withdrew his amendment, trusting that in due time the influence of the Regius Professor of Greek would be made manifest on the Treasury Bench. Mr. Stevenson, the member for South Shields, was the next to find fault with the bill. Why did it not allow Dissenters to take degrees in divinity ? Be cause. said Sir John Coleridge, it would be absurd to confer a degree in divinity without laying down some .{definite form of divinity. Having enlarged upon this theme he was followed by an old gentleman who has not, I think, spoken for some months. At soon as you heard him, there could be no doubt as to who he was. There is only one man in the House who ex asperates his h's so cruelly as this veteran legislator did ; and that is Mr. Hadfield. He spoke alternately in a very low voice and with a shout. It was in his forte, not his Piano, voice that he exclaimed, amid patronising cheers, " I wish thought to be hunfetterred." Then followed a succession of sotto rose sentences which no one could hear, and then words hurled forth in the voice of a Stentor. The effect was exceedingly comic, and members—yes, I grieve to say, Radical and Nonconformist members—laughed heartily at their eccentric colleague. I had no mind to laugh. It was really quite refreshing, in these days of blasé striplings, with whom "Nought is everything, and everything is nought ;" to find a man of four score and three who can retain the enthusiasm of a youth which really was youthful, and who can still shout for the old battle cry of " civil and reli gious liberty all over the world." It was a pity that Mr. Hadfield did not content himself with this one oration. He rose again and again. The second time he excited a loud roar of laughter by his peroration in which, after denouncing the High Church party, who denied the " harticles," and after declaring that it was the Non conformists who really believed them, he asked why these should not be allowed to compete with " your rotten hold professors." The third and the fourth time the hold but not rotten member for Sheffield rose he was greeted with anything but complimentary noises, and if it had not been for the patronising, humouring manner in which middle-aged men treat octogenarians, just as nurses treat their babies, Mr. Hadfield would certainly have been put down. The discussion was decidedly warm. Mr. Gladstone asked Mr. Hadfield if he was prepared to fol low out his proposal to its logical result, and to see Arch bishop Manning installed as Regius Professor of Divinity. That prospect seemed to the member for Sheffield so remote that it did not terrify him. Younger Nonconformists, Mr. Miall and Mr. Winter botham, were of a different opinion, and they opposed Mr. Stevenson's amendment. Mr. Mowbray, amid much Conservative cheering, asked the Radicals if they were prepared to reciprocate, would they allow members of the Church of England to present them selves for examination in divinity at the London Univer sity ? Mr. Stevenson, finding that his co-Dissenters did not unanimously support him, said he should withdraw his amendment, but the Secularists, in the person of Mr. Fawcett, interposed, and argued that a divinity examination was not a test of belief, but a test of know ledge, and that he could not consent to the withdrawal. 'Dr. Lyon-Playf air described what had been done at the Scotch Universities. Sir Roundell Palmer reminded the House that he had proposed without effect to adopt the Scotch system last year. Mr. Osborne Morgan followed up Mr. Fawcet t's argument, and the House cleared for a division. The formality took a long time, for more than 360 members voted, and it was then found that in spite of the union of the Conservatives and the Ministsrialists no fewer than 103 members (including tellers) . had gone against the Government. Mr. Vernon Harcourt was the next to lead the charge of the Secularists. " liistoricus" is a very large man, with very decided features, and a strong sonorous voice. He is a ready speaker, moreover, and looks just the sort of a man who ought to be sitting on the Treasury bench,where he would become as dear to the House as Mr. Lowe or Mr. Ayrton. Mr. Harcourt is one of those very ad- vanced Liberals who have got behind the north wind, who have discovered that the essence of religious tolera tion is, not to treat all religions equally well, but to treat them all equally ill. So he was very bitter against the idea of founding religious colleges in connection with a national university, and Keble College especially was the object of his sarcasm. He saw in the royal charter given to that institution an intimation of what Government intended to do with regard to the Irish Universities. However, finding that he was not likely to get much support in his novel rendering of the word toleration, he said he should not press his amendment, but content him self with moving a clause on bringing up the report, for bidding the Government to grant any charter without having laid it upon the table of the House of Commons thirty days previously. Mr. J. G. Talbot (brother of the warden of Keble College, and who himself looks like a young High Church clergyman), moved the omission of some words which he said were offensive to clergymen. Sir John Coleridge said that there was no intention to offend, and that the words might be left out: Thereupon Mr. Winterbotham and Mr. William Fowler protested, STAMPED 2d. and though Mr. Gladstone had a long and animated whis pered discussion with the former, he failed to convince him, and the members for Stroud and Cam bridge insisted upon taking a division, with the effect of finding themselves in a minority of sixty-eight. Then followed Mr. Fawcett, with a somewhat bitter attack upon the Government. They had been vacillating, they had not known their own minds, they had been compelled to advance against their will step by step in the path of true progress ; They had admitted their error with regard to the permis sive part of their bill of last year, and he was quite sure that if the present bill were rejected by the House of Lords, the Ministry would be prepared to admit further errors next year. He therefore urged that clerical fellowships should not be omitted from the scope of this measure, and he said that under any circumstances he should divide the Home on the point. The Solicitor-General, between whom and the Professor there has been a feud of old standing, replied to his assailant with bland and sarcastic politeness, which mightily pleased the House. He shewed that Mr. Fawcett's proposal dealt with the statutes of the colleges, and that to do this would be to go far beyond the limits of the bill then before the House. Mr. Miall and Mr. Gladstone then told the story of the little conference which the Dissenters had with the Premier last autumn, and how the first promised the second they would not seek to compel any changes in the regulations of the colleges. But Mr. Locke did not see why he should be bound by the compart, and he gave notice that he should vote against the Go vernment. So there was another divition, and once more Ministers triumphed over their nomi nal friends by the aid of their traditional foes. A little later Sir Bounden Palmer made an im pressive and weighty speech, cheered chiefly on the Con servative benches. He warned the House against intro ducing heathenism into the teaching of the univer sities, for that would assuredly be followed by the introduction of heathenism into the morals of the country, a danger which recent events, he said (with reference to the wretched " epicene " case), chew that we are already in danger of. Mr. Vernon Harcourt having stated that he should not divide on his next amendment, a large number of members left the House, thinking there would be no need of their further attendance. But Mr. Osborne Morgan had discovered that a portion of an Act passed sixteen years ago was inconsistent with the bill before the House, and he moved the repeal of the objectionable portion. Sir John Coleridge assured him that he was wrong. Mr. Morgan assured the Solicitor-General that he was wrong ; and so they went on contradicting each other with most perfect good manners, to the great amusement of the House. Mr. Morgan had the courage of his convic tions, and he divided the House, when it appeared that only about half of the old numbers were present, but Mr. Glyn had whipped enough of his men from dinner to be on the winning side. Mr. Henley went with the Radicals, greatly to his disgust, and much to the amusement of the House when he announced his blunder. Mr. Fawcett made one more pro test against the bill as a most incomplete measure and said it was just as if the Irish Church Bill had disestablished curates and vicars,and had stopped short of deans and bishops. Then the preamble was passed, and then Mr. Hardy got up and ironically bid Government thank the Conservatives for the help which they had given it when likely to be overwhelmed by its own followers. Quick as thought Mr. Goschen got up, and amid much cheering on the Treasury bench, said that the Government was very much obliged indeed to the gentlemen on the Opposition bench for having rejected former measures. Had they not done so the House would not now be having the present satisfactory measure before it. Mr. Mowbray retorted that Ministers were whistling before they were out of the wood, and there was another House which might treat the bill rather differently from the House of Commons. Mr. Fawcett, bent upon having the last word, said that Mr. Goschen ought to thank the members below the gangway, for without their help the present bill could not have been passed. Mr. Goschen nodded assent. Mr. Morrison obtained from Sir John Coleridge the information that the report would be taken on Monday, and then the bill passed through committee at nine o'clock, amid consider able cheering, and to the relief of Mr. Dodson, who ran off to dine. A. new Working Men's Institute has been opened in Sheffield. The movement is originated by Miss Harrison,•who is so well known in connection with many philantrophic works, and the institute is to have a coffee room, at which newspapers and periodicals will be pro vided. MB. BUTT AND THE AMNESTY COMMISSION.-Mr. Butt, as president of the Amnesty Association, refuses to acknowledge the commission to inquire into the treat ment of the Fenian convicts. He considers that in excluding personal testimony the commissioners have de prived the inquiry of a title to public confidence. ONE LORD-LIEUTENANT FOR TWO COUNTIES.--. The Earl of Stair, who has been Lord-Lieutenant of Ayr shire since 1851, has been appointed also Lord-Lieutenant of Wigtonshire, in the room of the late Marquis of Ailsa. Precedents are not wanting in Scotland for the union of two counties under a single nobleman as Lord-Lieutenant the Duke of Buccleuch holds the joint lieutenancy of Roxburghshire and Midlothian—while his eldest son, the Earl of Dalkeith, holds the same office for the county of Dumfries. ADVERTISEMENTS RESPECTING STOLEN GOODS.-- A short bill has been prepared by the Government for the purpose of limiting actions against newspapers for in serting advertisements of reward for the return of stolen property. The Bill provides that every action to recover penalties against newspapers under the Larceny Act shall be brought within six months after the forfeiture is incurred, but prohibits every such action un less the assent in writing of her Majesty's Attorney- General or Solicitor-General for England, or the same officials for Ireland, has been first obtained. The bill has a clause of a retrospective character, which enables the defendant to stay proceedings. THE METROPOLITAN POLICE.—The Secretary of State, on the recommendation of Colonel Henderson, the Chief Commissioner of Police, has been pleased to grant considerable concessions to the police force in the Metro politan district, as follows :—lnspectors' salaries are to be raised to £2los. per week ; Ist class sergeants, 31s. ; 2nd class, 295. ; Ist class constables, 265. ; 2nd class, 245. ; 3rd class, 225. ; and 4th class, 20s. Each class appointed to the reserve force will have in addition to this the follow ing extra rates of pay :—lnspectors, 4s. ; sergeants, 3s. ; and constables, Is. 6d. per diem; and promotions are only to be made by seniority, while in cases where it has not been the case it is to be rectified, and officers not qualified by sufficient education are to attend instruction classes till they are. THE LATE SIR JAMES SIMPSON.—The Duke of Argyll has addressed a letter to Sir Walter G. Simpson, in which he says :—" I have received an order from her Majesty the Queen to convey to the family of Sir J. Simpson an expression of her Majesty's warmest sympathy in the loss they have sus tained, and an expression also of her Majesty's own sorrow on account of the loss which the country has sustained in the death of so great and good a man. Although I have only just received this command, it was the Queen's intention that it should reach me some time ago. Accidental circumstances occasioned a delay. I now obey her Majesty's command, and I need hardly add, on behalf of the Duchess and myself, that we both mourn the loss of a very dea r personal friend." AN OLD RELIC.—The " Old White Horse " Inn, the halfway house at Croydon, after standing for centuries, has been doomed to demolition. The license to this house was granted in the reign of Henry VIII., under very novel and stringent conditions, but which have long since been discontinued. A Royal grant of land was made for a public horse-pond, and which remained till a recent period. The ground is still enclosed. The timbers in the old house are of stupendous size, and the exterior is in sound condition. The old house stood on the manor of Lambeth, and adjoining the old manor-house, which has already been pulled down. The land of late years has be come too valuable to permit these ancient structures to monopolise such a large extent of ground. A new inn of a modern style is to be built on the old site on which the White Horse Tavern stood. TRADES OUTRAGES AT MANCHESTER. THREATENING LETTER.—Messrs. Robert Neill and Sons builders and contractors, in Manchester, recently recei ve d a letter, in which it was stated that their premises in Strangeways would soon meet with a "visitation " similar to that which took place at the timber-yard of Mr. E. Johnson, in Ancoats, some time ago. The police were at once made acquainted with the contents of the letter, and a strict watch has since been kept over the premises of the Messrs. Neill: On Saturday night the police, who had secreted themselves on the premises, arrested three or four men, who were found inside the yard, and whose conduct will certainly subject them to the penalty which is usually enforced " for being found on certain premises for an unlawful purpose." Another man was arrested outside the premises. The prisoners were brought up at the City Police-court on Monday and remanded for a week. and sylll . 0111 ected large llor 'v i nes Li ters to be a ltier ed to time, more flitier
