Pri , e is. 6d.—fled Ball Wharf, v 3. Upper Thames-Ntreet. London. The Sale of Intoxicating Liquors on Sunday. years of his life he had been in contact with working men. For 15 years he lived among shepherds and ploughmen, and for the last 15 years he had laboure.l as a pastor among working men in London. He was not there to accuse them of drunkenness as a body. Ile did not recognise the people of England, who were a generous, sturdy, upright, self-govern ing race, in those who sat in beet-houses and dese crated the Sunday ; but what he said was, that he and those with whom he was acting might be per mitted to speak in the names of hundreds of thou sands of working men, and of sober wives whose voices were never heard, that this leprosy, which was eating deeper and deeper, might be restrained by wise legislation, and he was confident that every working man who loved his country would be glad to forego a slight measure of his liberty for the sal vation of his brother, his friends, and his comrades, and in order that this deep blot might be wiped away from the fair name and fame of our country. (Cheers.) Alderman COTTON agreed neither with the reso lution nor the amendment. He contended that the amount of intoxicating drinks a man should take ought to be regulated by common sense and by a consideration of how much his constitution would stand. (Laughter.) He considered that the present regulations for closing public-houses on Sundays were sufficient, but he would not object to their being closed after six o'clock on Saturday evenings when working men received their wages. Eventually the LORD MAYOR put the amendment to the meeting, and only ten or a dozen hands were held up in its favour. The resolution was declared carried by the almost unanimous vote of the vast. assemblage. The Rev. NEWMAN HALL moved the adoption of a petition to Parliament, setting forth that the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sundays is a special source of intemperance, immorality, and crime, and praying that public-houses maybe closed during the whole of Sundays. Mr. HUGH OWEN, of the Poor-law Board, seconded the motion, which was carried. The meeting closed with a vote of thanks to the Lord Mayor. His lordship was, loudly cheered as he left the hall. -_,,._ Yesterday afternoon, a public meeting called by the Lord Mayor in accordance with a requisition presented to him by Archbishop Manning, Arch deacon Wordsworth, the Iron. and Rev. Dr. Gilbert Talbot, Alderman AbbisA, Alderman Hale, Bishop Morris, Mr. 13. Scott (Chamberlain of the City), Alderman Lusk, M.P., Dr. Burns, the Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel, the Rev. W. Arthur, M.A. (Pre sident of the Wesleyan Conference), Mr. Sheriff Lycett, Dr. Cumming, Mr. Samuel Morley, and 560 other merchants, traders, clergymen, Dissenting miaisters, and others, was held in the Guildhall, to enable the citizens to express their opinions on the propriety of adopting measures for stopping the sale of intoxicating liquors-on Sdndays.

GOODS TRAIN SEIZED FOR SMUGGLING.— The Eastern Prussian State Railway has experienced a proof of the severity of the Russian Custom House regula tions. Through some inadvertence of the railway officials at Thorn, who neglected to furnish a goods through train to Poland with the needful certificates of origin and other papers required by the regulations of Russian red-tapism, the whole train on its arrival at Alexandro, the frontier station, was seized on the alleged ground of attempting to smuggle the goods and defraud the Russian Custom-house The directors bad to pay a flue of $2,500 before the goods were liberated and allowed to be conveyed to their desti nation. It is understood that there is but a faint chance of relief or recovery of the fine, as the money was immediately distributed among the officials of the frontier Custom house, who, after all, did nothingmoro than they were en titled and oven required to do in yiANe 91 Unix iiistractiens. The Rev. Dr. GARRETT, of Manchester, moved the first resolution :—" That this meeting believes that the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sunday is highly prejudicial to the welfare of the people, and that it ought therefore to be discontinued." He said it was not the object of the promoters of this movement to offend any one, or to hurt any one's feelings—all that they wanted to do was to promote a great national work in a harmonious spirit. The great question was whether public houses should or should not be entirely closed on Sundays. (Cheers, and loud 'narks of dissent.) If the people petitioned the House of Commons in an earnest and respectful manner entirely` to close public-houses on Sunday it would be done; but if the House of Commons thought those places ought to be open during part of Sundays, that of course must be the arrangement. Alderman HALE seconded the motion. He said he occasionally took a glass of wine, but he never drank wine on a Sunday. (Laughter.) - Mr. H. J. Warn UT, a licensed victualler; rose to move the following amendment :—« That, in the opinion of this meeting, it is inexpedient at present to make any alteration in the law respecting the sale of beer, wine, or spirits." He was met with a deaf ening shout of disapproval, and a disturbance arose which was with difficulty quelled. He denied that the working people of England were i n suc h a de graded and immoral state that they could not be trusted to look after themselves, their families, and their property unless public-houses were locked up one whole day out of the seven. (Uproar.) Mr. F. SALE, a very jovial-looking person, s - condect' the_ Motion, and denounced Puritanism, which would deprive working men of their beer. Archbishop MANNING, who - on rising to speakwas loudly cheered, said he supported'the resolution with all his heart. Referring to an observation of the pre vious speaker, he said he was not a Puritan who un dermined the commonwealth of England. (A laugh.) His reason for appearing there was because he knew from the report of the committee of the House of Commons in 1854 that drunkenness exceeded all official statistics in England, and that the great mass of that drunkenness was committed on the Saturday night and on Sunday. Those mere not opinions which rested on his judgment alone, but were the so lemn utterances of a Parliamentary Committeeafter two years of deliberate hearing and weighing of evi dence. On the Saturday night the poor man had all his week's wages, and on the Sunday be had all his time unoccupied. The temptation to drunken ness was multiplied by unwise legislation. For 30 years past the wisdom of the Legislature had gone astray in that respect. That it should introduce the principle of free trade in cotton to clothe the poor, or free trade in bread to feed them, he could well understand ; but free trade in drink was con trary to the principles of sound legislation, to true political economy, and to the internal principles of morality. (Cheers.) It was now about 11 years since a systematic, powerful, and wise organisation pressed forward this great subject on the public conscience of England. He was absent at the time that agitation began, but if he had been in England he would have spoken then as ho did now. He had carefully read the reportof the Parliamentary Com mittee of 1853-54, and the report of the Royal Commission of 1859-60 on the law in Scotland, and his reasons for desiring to see all houses for the sale of drink closed on Sundays was be cause Sunday was the time when the poor man had an abundance of money and a superabun dance of leisure, and because the Legislature had on that day multiplied the temptations to spend both in the public-house to such a degree that they were well] nigh irresistible. Secondly, because the sin of drunkenness dishonoured and tainted the Lord's-day. In 1863, at a congress of Catholics at Manes, he took part in a meeting which passed a resolution to the effect that it was the duty of every man and of his children and servants and all about him to preserve and promote the observance of Sunday, which was sacred in memory to our Lord's resurrection, and to refrain from all work, and from all buying, selling, and trafficking whatsoever on that day. It would be no infringement, how ever,7where food was perishable, that a sale should take place under such proved necessity as would jus tify the act. They were told that tile closing of public-houses on Sunday was impracticable. He answered that of the United States of America ten of them had already done it ; that in our colonies it had been partially done ; that in Scotland it had been done ; and that in two of the dioceses of Ireland it had not only been done, but done without legislative enactment, and by moral power and episcopal authority. The report of the Royal Commissioners established the fact, ou the evidence of magistrates, police, and other persons in authority in Scotland, that from the introduction of Mr. Forbes Mackenzie's Act there the streets on Sundays had been tranquil and clear, and that working men of every class, and even publicans, had prayed that the law might be made more stringent. Mr. M'Laren, the late Provost of Edinburgh, had proved by sta tistics that since the introduction of that Act the consumption of spirits in Scotland had diminished by one-seventh. The same had been effected in Ireland. He had letters from Catholic dignitaries at Cashel and Thurles to the effect that hardly any better or more practical illustration could be found of the moral, social, and domestic benefits to be anticipated from the closing of public-houses on Sunday than the working of the temperance law in those dioceses. The meeting would bear in mind there was no legislative enatment there ; but a pledge not to get drunk at any time, nor to frequent public-houses on Sundays, and the exactitude of the people in observing it was described as something wonderful. The tendency of the law all through had been to make temperance a public virtue, and to make men temperate on every day in the week. In the diocese of Thurles the days of holding fai r s and markets had been altered from Mondays to Tuesdays, and drunken ness said t very lrat n eiiinconsequence had di sappeare d . It was what was aimed at in this movement was a limitation of the freedom of the people. He, on the contrary, said it was a limitation only of license. (Cheers.) Liberty was only related to right. It had no relation to wrong. A great public authority said the other day that it was a constitutional right of every Englishman to get drunk if he would. (A laugh.) Then, as an Eng lishman, he (Dr. Manning) claimed the constitu tional right to abate him as a nuisance, to try every tribunal to obtain a sentence with that view, and if that did not reach him, he would ap peal to the Legislature to have him abated as a nuis ance. They • were met there that day to abate a great public calamity—a nuisance which was under mining and sapping the common weal. Had it not been an object of legislation to limit the sale of poisons and to suppress betting and gaming-houses ? He was taunted with the remark that they were there to traduce the working man, and that they had spoken of the people of England as a drunken people. No one bad donethat ; on the contrary, they were speak ing as friends of working men. For more than 30 One cf the studios of Rome still open to the pub lic, and still called by the great artist's name who is no more—that of Gibson—may now excite a peculiar and mournful interest. Many of its contents, both casts and marbles, are packed in boxes ready to be sent to England, but many others, and among them the finest of those produced within recent years, are still on view. With renewed pleasuie must we now consider the sculptor's last work, the "Theseus slay ing the Robber Chief," to which he was about to apply himself at the very moment the mortal stroke first rendered him helpless, and which those re sponsible have judiciously caused to be cast from the unfinished model without any attempt to com plete in the clay what has been left as we now see it an imperfect but noble work, wanting much of anatomical detail, especially as observed at the back of both figures, but still so far elaborated as to be present in impressive truthfulness the entire concep tion and feeling. Nothing could be finer than the indignant but calm energy with which Theseus stands over the prostrate robber, about to slay him with the sword held aloft, and in an action that throws out the finest attributes of the heroic beauti ful in form. This group had been sketched in the clay about 30 years ago, and in that state seen by ThorsVatdsen, who expressed approval ; and the idea of completing it had frequently occurred to the artist, who at last applied himself to the long-post poned work with sonic feeling of presentiment) to infer from what his assistants tell us) that it might be his last, or that he might not live to finish it. At Benzonio's studio the principal work lately produced and just completed in marble is the group, above life-size, of the " Flight from Pompeii ;" or Diomed assisting the mother with her infant at the dread catastrophe, as described in the well-known ro mance ; and whatever we may think of the inappro priateness of such a subject for sculpture, we must admire this wonderful example of difficulties over come in a scene of the utmost agitation and terror, hurried movement and confusion, presented with pathos that at once touches the heart, whilst con forming to the ideal standard of the sculptor's sphere ; the noblest quality being the predominance of the moral feeling, in the generous humanity of Diomed, and the motherly tenderness of the female, over the selfishness of fear as over the physical hor rors of the situation. In the accessories, ornaments, vessels, &c., strewn on the ground, are exact copies from Pompeiian antiques; and this striking group is to he placed by its purchaser, a Mr. Stephens, of New York, in the centre of a hall fitted up and de corated so as exactly to reproduce one of the aristo cratic interiors in the lava-buried city. We hear that Tenerani, now a septuagenarian, has commis sions on his hands sufficient for ten years' labour, but has dismissed several of his workmen, yielding to the irritation in his mind (such at least is the re port) at the generally unfavourable criticism passed on his monument to Pius VIII., when that colossal work was first exposed at St. Peter's, about a year ago. In that criticism on the Papal monument rare merits have been overlooked, even granting, as we may, that the figures be less impressive when grouped together than as seen in the studio. No new work of importance has been undertaken within the last year by Tenerani. Mr. Rogers, one of the most successful and constantly engaged of the American sculptors in Rome, has received a com mission for one of the many monuments to be raised in the cities of the United States to President Lincoln. Much decorative and restoring work has been in progress in Home's churches, and much is still con tinuing, begun in the last or in previous years. Our generalimpression is of splendour, lavish use of rich material, marbles, gilding, bronzes, &c., sometimes in suitable accord between the new adornment and the architectural character viewed as a whole, but not of any exalted merit of feeling in sacred art, still less of any intelligent appreciation for the Christian antiquities thus too often marred or taste lessly altered in the intent to embellish. The re storations and paintings, by Coghetti and others of his school, at St. Maria in Trastevere (in its oldest parts of a church of the 12th century) are still progressing, and,we are told, are to involve the out lay of 200,000 scudi, half given by Government, half by the capitular clergy. Along the high attics have been executed large fresco figures of 16 male and female martyrs, divided by pilasters with gilt capitals ; and above the chief portals have been opened three round-arched windows, with glass paintings, large size, of Cornelius, Calixtus, and Julius 1., sainted pontiffs who contributed to the building or restoring of this church. The fine me diaeval pavement of inlaid marbles has been taken up, but will, we arc told, be replaced in similar style and with the same materials. S. Maria in Aquiro, better known as the Church of the Orphan Asylum, a modern edifice of indifferent architecture, has been renewed interiorly with much magnificence —colossal fresco paintings, coloured marble incrus tations, stucco reliefs, and gilding. Along the flat spaces of the heavy piers between nave and aisles, large figures of Greek and Latin fathers, executed with a certain breadth and boldness, in which we recognise the student of Michel Angelo ; on the waggon-vault roof the four Evangelists with their emblems, angels; and along a frieze below scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary ; in two ample lunettes at the end walls the Visitation and the As sumption of Mary, with a group of saints and Pope Paul 111., patron of the orphanage ; in the cupola, Moses, Jeremiah, David, and Isaiah, associated with four sibyls; and on the pendentives below, Joachim, Joseph, Zechariah, and St. John baptist, here ad mitted as personages connected with the 'Virgin in life,—•tll by Cesare Mariana, a professor of the St. . Luke Academy, now in high repute among Roman artists, and certainly entitled to a hi,;ll place in this local Fehool. The restorations of the same church, modern Italian in style, are by the architect Gus tavo Morichini. More noticeable for historic i portance is the lately -completed renovation of S. Niccolo in Carcere, a church that had hen shut on account of these repairs for n-arly 20 years, and which stands above the ruins of three temples, partly preserved within its structure,. to Hope, Piety, and Juno Sospita, a subterranean beneath being the supposed site of the story of the "Roman Daughter," not, however, according to archaeological authorities. Entering this church, which is of the basilica type, we are struck by the splendour of the renewed interior, as contrasted with the insignificant front. Along its attics we see the frescoes, in 10 scenes, illustrating the life of St. Nicholas of Myra (patron saint of Bari), by Guidi ; and in the apse two larger scenes, one from the same biography, the other representing a vision of the Saviour and the Virgin in glory, by Pasqualoni —two artists not very well known (we be lieve), nor hitherto, we believe, . engaged to adorn any other public buildings ; the works here being, if not of the worst, certainly not among the best, lately admitted into Romish churches. Over the high altar we notice a superb canopy of bronze and gilt woodwork resting on four columns of Oriental alabaster. Another ancient and historic church, renovated by recent labours, is St. Bartolomeo, on the Tiber Island, founded by the Emperor Otho 111., A.D. 1000, on the site of the Temple of iEsculapius, frequently restored, bat still of the same basilica type,and, now rich in newly placed marbles and gilding, also adorned by frescoes by Fra Bonaventura, one of the Franciscans of the adjoining convent, who has painted along its attic and coffered ceiling scenes in the life of Mary and heads of Apostles. At S. Agostino (a church long in part closed to allow of extensive repairs), Gugliardi is still engaged on a series, begun several years ago, of frescoes along walls and vaults, illus trating the lives of S. Augustine and other saints of his order, besides numerous figures of apostles, patriarchs, martyrs; and at the grand old basilica of S. Lorenzo (the late restoration of which we pro test against), an artist of new-born renown, Fracas sini, is now employed in fresco-painting. The works of S. Paul's are still carried on with activity, all the windows along the minor aisles being now painted with large figures (too large, it strikes us, for their location), and the mosaics on the facade advancing to completion, though in no part yet visible. At two of the less prominent churches, S. Maria in Monti celli and S. Lucia, the above-named Signor Mariani has either nearly or entirely finished other paintings spoken highly of in the Roman journals. At the last meeting of the British Archaeologic Society, at the English Consulate, was read by Mr. Shakspere Wood, secretary, a translated paper by Visconti, on antique Roman construction and modes of building, explained with much learning and ful ness of detail, by the Italian writer. But most of all did this lecture derive interest and importance from the many illustrations in coloured drawings by Mr. Charles Cooper Wood, brother to the above named secretary of the society ; these drawings, of spirited execution and admirable effect, representing their subjects, chosen among Rome's classic ruin piles, were on the same scale as the originals, and with exact transcript of the details peculiar to suc cessive periods. For such treatment of the theme of the day's studies as was thus provided addressed to eye and mind thanks were due, and with like emphasis, to the learned writer of the paper, and to the artist of the illustrations. Since that occasion the society has twice assembled in the open air, to visit, under Mr. J. 11. Parker's guidance, the most interest;ng remains of aqueducts, both within the city walls and on the Campagna, at certain dis tances. At the last meeting of the society's com mittee it was reported that the members, up to that day, were 66 in number, associates 172. The archaeo logic library is developing, thanks to many dona tions, and the catalogue has just been printed. The diggings in Trastevere have further brought to light the remains of what is inferred to be a station of the Vigiles, where several graffiti have been found, besides other antique objects of some value. Much interest is excited by the announce ment of a discovery, through works directed by Visconti, of a buried city near Albano, assumed to be more ancient than Rome ; a paper referring to the ruins on the site of which was lately read by that gentleman to the Roman Archaeologic Aca demy. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—The veil which conceals the proceedings of Cabinets from ordinary men was lifted last night, and to those who have the gift of insight the reve lation was complete. It cannot be said that it was altogether agreeable. As far as the past was con cerned, the revelation was, indeed, most unsatisfac tory, and it is only when we turn to the future that we aro encouraged to believe that the dangers of de lay are past. It is now just a month since Parlia ment met, and in that tune it has done nothing. There has been a show of advancing, but the advance has been feeble and hesitating, the retreat rapid. Mr. Gladstone compared the progress of legislation yesterday evening to a Greek dance, where the dancer advances three paces and then retires two ; but his illustration, as he confessed, was inadequate as a description of our late experience. If we are one step nearer the goal on this sth of March than we were on the.sth of February, it is simply because it has been discovered after severe trials that it is impossible to get on at all with a Cabinet whose members are bent on going different ways. We would.not undervalue this result, but we cannot help thinkin g that it ought to have been known before hand. Up to Saturday evening there was no ruling opinion in the Ministry, which is but another way of saying that for practical purposes there was no opinion at all. Every one was content to go on with his colleagues as long as it was possible, though there never could have been any doubt, in the minds of those who faced the question, that directly the time of action came a secession was inevitable. The seces sion has come to pass, and we may infer that th e t i i n c of action has arrived. Henceforth, let us hop e, we shall have no more divided counsels and da rk sa yi n g s, im plying nothing but the necessity of concealing divi sion opinion. expect that the bill we are now promised o mi f a satisfactory se If this hope is confirdmocn,i‘Nivoenndiaayy week may, after all, f or m the h q measure.

The material points in the past conduct of the Ministry were touched upon by Lord Granville and Lord Grey. Without affecting to determine the arithmetical problem whether eight months have or have not elapsed since the present Government came into power, we may assume, as too certain to be contradicted, that the Ministry put off the conside ration of every question as long as possible, and met Parliament after the recess without having come to any determination on the policy they would pursue. It is not correct to say they took Parliament into counsel, for that implies that they had some coun sel of their own ; they came into Parliament asking counsel for themselves. A course like this merited Lord Grey's severest censures. The crisis was, no doubt, peculiar; the Ministry had a work cast upon them which had proved fatal to many Ministries, and they might reasonably demand an unusual in dulgence and active co-operation. They were not the less, however, bound to hays a galley of their own, definite aims, and clearly shaped schemes of action ; and we now know that they failed in what the nation had a right to demand of them through the culpable, if amiable, weakness of maintaining the appearance of an united Cabinet after all real unity of opinion had plainly become impossible. Reform has now another perhaps we should say, has now its first chance from the present Go vernment. The Administration has, in . the phrase. RUPTURES.-BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT.

The point on which Lord Catalan-on dissented from his colleagues seems to have been the possibility of establishing different oc cupation franchises iu large and small towns, and we think the Ministry wisely decided that no such variation of electoral privileges could be maintained, even if it could ever be enacted. It is as impossibl e to restore loc a l f ranc hi ses now as it would be for the Crown to turn half a county into a forest. The act of enfrauchi-ernent must neither be partial nor capricious:. When, however, Mr. Gladstone says, as lie did last night, that though the Bill of the Government may contain what is new, it mast con tain nothing that is new-fangled, we must demur to language which seems to appeal to the prejudices of men who are too indolent to consider anything pre sented to them for the first time. We trust, with. Mr. Gladstone, that the measure to be introduced on the 18th will be ” good, simple, straightforward, constitutional, and intelligible," but we do not sup pose Parliament or the nation is incapable of taking in a new idea that nothing but a reduction of the oc cupying qualifications can be understood. If, as we hope, proposals of wide enfranchisement be made, there should be at the same time proposals to secure the continued representation of all shades of opinion in the House of Commons, and such proposals must be more or less a novelty. if we are for the first time about to add to our constituencies numbers sufficient to control them, we mast take care that the newly-enfranchised voters shall not altogether extinguish the electoral privileges of those now on the register. Mr. Gladstone probably had some special scheme in view when he uttered his caution, but his language was too wide to pass without pro test. All that can be required is that every proposal shall be judged upon its merits when it comes before the House of Commons. Mr. Warner, an advanced Liberal, last night asked the Chancellor of the Ex_ chequer whether he was so far willing to reconsider the abandoned fifth Resolution as to admit the prin ciple of plurality of votes where the voter possessed a plurality of qualifications. This is a new notion; but if we condemn it, it is not because it is new, but because we believe it would afford an unstable security for effecting the end it has in view. Mr. Charles Buxton, another Liberal, has another novelty. He intends to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will extend his proposal of enfranchisement so as to take away the second seat from all boroughs having a population below 10,000, and, after providing for the London University and the twelve boroughs proposed to be called into existence, give the remaining thirty-one seats to as many of the largest borough and county constituen des. He would thus create thirty-one " three cornered" constituencies, and in them would allow the voter to give his votes cumulatively or distribute them at his discretion. This is, again, a new prin ciple in our electoral machinery, and, we believe, no objection has ever been raised to it, when restricted to the extent Mr. Buxton suggests, except that members of the House of Commons are too much interested in negativing a measure which would un settle so many seats to permit it to pass. It ought to be considered. To refuse to consider it or any other plan on the ground of novelty would go far to support the charge Mr. Gladstone himself feared might be brought against the House of Commons —that it was incapable of legislating on this ques tion, of treating this great occasion with the force and energy it demands. We trust the Ministry will be neither timorous nor pedantic. There is a fort night before it ; let that fortnight be given to coun sel equally removed from prejudice and rashness, and Parliament may then vindicate its sincerity and capacity of legislation when a comprehensive scheme is submitted to it. Scotland and the Reform Bill. The amount of proportion of representatiou to be gi ven to Scotland under Lord Derby's Reform is, like all the other parts of the main question, involved in mystery. Like everything, too, on which Mr. Disraeli has given explana tions, it has been, as he himself states, the subject of " misconception." So, upon Friday night, he set himself to remove that misconception, and to interpret his former meaning. But again the interpreter is the harder to be understood of the two -not only is it impossible to make out what Mr. Disraeli intends to propose, but the argumen tation in which he expatiates throws the whole facts and reasoning of that part of the question into utter confusion. The first exposition given of the Reform Bill showed that it is not intended to reduce the number of English mem bers; 30 are to be taken away from certain English con stituencies, but all the 30 aro to be given to certain other English constituencies. This, it must be confessed, looked very like a design to refuse any additional representation to Scotland, for it is only from England that seats could fairly be taken, and in all previous bills which gave addi tional seats to large constituencies in Scotland t they were, as needs they must be, taken from small constituencies in England. Hence, doubtless, the dual form of Sir Stirling Maxwell's question whether it was intended to give any additional representation to Scotland, and if so, from what source it was to be derived. Laying aside as oat of the question the taking away of any representation from Ire land, there were only two answers which even so ingenious a person as Mr. Disraeli could give to this question, if he intended to answer it at all. He might have said No to the first clause of the question, and there an end. Or he might have said Yes to the first clause, and to the second have replied that the source from which the additional representation was to be supplied was an enlargement of the numbers of the House of Commons. But he said neither Yes nor No, nor anything between nor anything beyond. He argued that as the Bill, the substance of which he had stated to the House, had reference only to the representation of England and Wales, there was no reason to infer from the provisions of that bill the yisions of the bill for Scotland. The only conclusion at and which Ministers had arriv e d was that England Wales had not " too much" representation— . t low that they had conclud e d that Scotland had enough. didnot fol low in one sense that does follow, and in the only other sense a great deal more follows. Unless . it is i increase the total number of members—th e easy, statementntendd e to which intention, if it exists, W AS not onl y incum bent—a conclusion conclusion E a t nd Scotlandhas not s too not n, but t i o u chhavrepre sentation, is a more. Further, if it is concluded that, according to pro perty, population, and Las not b too o much ncl u dreed presentation, then, on t s h o o o same n g l data, and h it must that Scotland has a g reat deal too little. Scotland m a y or luny not is entitled to • but there is n o pro cess get what she by which England can be shown entitled to retain her present number of members which does not show at the same time that Scotland is entitled to more than her pre sent number. " The conclusion," adds Mr. Disra "at w hich we have arrived is, that representation mfg t be more efficiently distributed." Well, why in the process of distribution draw a line at the Tweed, and lay out of view that portion of the United Kingdom in which, as far as regards addition, "efficient distribution" is most required? There is another question raised by Mr. Disraeli's speech, and it is not the only question to which the Conservative Ministers, in their handling of Reform, have given en largement and new difficulties. The bill of last year, for instance, gave seven now members to Scotland, and took seven away from England, making a difference of 14 in the balance' between the two kingdoms. Suppose that Mr. Disraeli now gives seven new members to Scot land, not by taking them from England, 1.11 by enlarg ment of the House, Scotland would have Hulk more than half the gain which Mr. Disraeli was so active in prevent iug her obtaining last year. It is he, not we, that puts one kingdom against another, and "cannot at all admit that in attempting to improve the representation of Eng land and Wales we are bound at all to consider the claims of other parts of the United Kingdom." If in this matter England and Scotland are to be treated separately, as some what opposing Powers, and not as Great Britain, then it will become the more just and necessary that the balance shall be adjusted with arithmetical accuracy, which would give Scotland much more than wo either expect or very much care fa.r.- Scotsman. Mn.ARTEMUS WARD. —Th is gentleman, who by his great intelligence and the humour displayed in his writings has made so many sincere friends in England, now lies without hope of recovery at Southampton. This is the more to be deplored as the liberal sentiments and ope nature of Mr. Ward had a strong tendency to draw closer together the feelings of Americans and Englishmen. ALARMING OCCURRENCE AT A MENAGERIE.-011 Saturday night a large and powerful black bear, an inha bitant of a menagerie exhibiting at Guildford, forced his way through a partition, and into the tigers' den, whic was occupied by three young Bengal tigers. A fearful com bat soon raged between the infuriated beasts, in which th bear appeared to be gaining the advantage. After vainly trying to part the combatants and to induce the bear to re tire into his own quarter?, the keepers determined that th only way to prevent a fearful catastrophe was to destroy the bear. Accordingly two of them loaded their fire-arms with slugs, and both discharged their pieces together and shot the bear dead, whilst they at the same time wounded two of the tigers so severely that it is feared they will have to be destroyed. Tho value of the bear is estimated at about £9O, and the tigers at from 80 to 100 guineas each.
