The moderate Irish journals offer no great oppo sition to tho Peace Preservation Bill. Both Govern ment and Opposition papers agree in general that the measure is needed, but differ as to the circum stances which have given rise to such a neces sity. The Belfast .New Letter is most severe. It says that the country was peaceable and pro sperous under the Duke of Abercorn, and would have been peaceable and prosperous still, but for the false hopes excited by Mr. Gladstone. , It believes the proposed measure will add one more to the legion of English blunders. In the centre of rowdyism—Cork—the press spews a very mode rate disposition. The Cork Reporter consider 3 that the spectacle of Mr. Gladstone appealing to Parlia ment for powers over and above those provided by the Constitution is a sad and lamentable one, but it denies that Mr. Gladstone is to blame. The Cork Examiner regrets the repressive measures against the press, but regards the remaining provisions of the bill as in no way extensive. The Dublin Evening Post holds that there is no choice between repression and abdication. PROFESSOR CAIRNES ON TENANT RIGHT. Professor Cairnes writes to the Daily News, calling attention to a plan of tenant-right founded on some suggestions made by Judge Longfield in his essay in the Cobden Club volume, It is proposed by the. plan to confer on every tenant farmer in Ireland the right of purchasing "parliamentary tenant right" at' a certain numbn of years' purchase of his rent—say for the purpose of illus tration, seven. The purchase money in the case of an ordinary tenant would be made up of three elements A certain sum to be allowed for occupation right; 2. a certain further sum in consi deration of permanent improvements effected on ..the land; 3. the balan ce , w hi c h i s now paid in cash. Thus, supposing a tenant holding a farm of fifty acres- at a rent of per acre, his tenant-right at seven years' purchase of the rental, would amount to £350, which might be made up as follows :—Occupation right, value say at two years' purchase, £lOO ; outlay on permanent im provements, £100; cash, £l5O. In the case of a tenant in Ulster, who had on getting possession of his - farm paid for. the goodwill, the sum paid for this would enter into the price as a further clement. Professor Cairnes says that this plan has lately attracted some attention in Ireland, though he does not observe that it has been noticed on this side of the Channel. ELECTION NEWS. Mr. Odger has finally agreed to abide by the cto cmon of the test ballot bet Ween himself and the other two Liberal candidates. This change in the determination of the working man to have no more dealings with preliminary polling is owing chiefly to a letter from Mr. Fawcett. The member for Brighton objects as a rule :to test ballots, inasmuch as they proceed on the assumption that there are only two classes of politicians—Conservatives and Liberals. At Bristol, however, circumstances were dif ferent, and he entreated Mr. Odger to accept the ballot. The petition against Mr. Osborne's return for Waterford has been lodged. It charges the member who won his seat under such difficulties with being guilty, by himself or his agents, of giving or promising money to voters, and supplying meat and drink to influence them corruptly. Intimidation is also alleged. AMBITIOUS FAMILIES. Tho Dni7y _Yews refers to the assertion of Lord 0. J. Hamilton, that " th ere are am biti ous f am ili es ," with the following bit of information, which may be termed the retort courteous. TheDulte o fAbercorn, says our contemporary, is a Knight oft he Garter, has held the office of Lord Lieutenant 'of Ireland, holds the Lord-Lieutenancy of Donegal, is a Major-General of the Royal Archon:, the Queen's Body Guard of S . cotland, is a Captain in the London Scottish Rifle N'olunteers, and a Governor of Harrow School. Three of his sons represent the county of Donegal, the county of Middlesex, and the borough of King's Lynn respectively. His brother, Lord Claud Hamilton, sits for the county of Tyrone, and has held office as' Vice-Chancellor of Her Majesty's household. Lord Claud John has filled the post of a Lord of the Treasury. The Hamilton family is connected by marriage with the Dukes of Bedford, Buccleuch, and Marlborough, the Marquis of Lansdowne, and the Earls of Durham, Howe, Lichfield, and Mount Edgcumbe. LORD NORTHBROOK'S COMMITTEE. The Pall Mall Gazette learns that General Lefroy, the Director-General of Ordnance at the War Office, has resigned his post, though whether in consequence of the position assigned to him by Lord North brook's committee is not at present known. A. passage in the report recommended that the Director-General of Ordnance should be retained as a purely consultative officer, and a standing member of the Ordnance Council, without a staff of elerks. It seems probable, therefore, that General Lefroy is hurt at finding his position likely to be so injure 1, and has in consequence anticipated the event by resigning. Committees cannot please everyone by their emendations, and the best measures must at tunes injure individual interests. WAR OFFICE CLERICS. The War Office clerks who are to be dispensed With will receive more liberal treatment than the dockyard-men. All those who volunteer to retire on pensions before the 15th of April will be paid till salaries to the end of the year, and will be allowed any other benefits which such a prolongation of actual service would have brought them in the way of increased salary or superannuation allowance. All those who count twenty years' service will have ten years added on in reckoning their pensions, and in like manner fifteen years' service will carry an addition of seven, and ten years an addition of five years. The Pall Mall Gazette, which makes this announcement, says that the increased cost will be small, whilst the benefit to those concerned will be great. THE EPISCOPAL BENCH. Mr. Gladstone has made his tenth appointment to a bishopric. Hs has possessed an extraordinary amount of patronage since his accession to power, and has caused the aspect of the episcopal bench to be materially altered. The senior bishop at the present time is Dr. Thirlwall, of St. David's. Dr. Samuel Wilberforce is second to him, having been appointed in 1840, - whereas Dr. Thirl well has occupied his position since 1840. The latter is the last remaining of Lord Melbourne's bishops, and the former the last of Sir Robert Peel's. Dr. 011ivant, of Llandaff, remains from Lord Rus sell's administration, and Dr. Jackson, for merly of Lincoln, now of London, is the survivor of Lord Aberdeen's creations. Lord Pal merston made a great many nominations, and eight of his bishops survive, including Dr. Tait, whom Mr, Disraeli raised to the Primacy. The nominations of the present Premier have certainly caused more interest throughout the country than those of former Ministers on account of the prominence of religious questions of the day. Every appointment has been picked to pieces to such an extent that Mr. Gladstone must really be glad that he is not very likely to have much more patronage, according to the natural order of things, there being little chance of more vacancies for some time to come. propos of bishops, the Globe thinks that Wales should be satisfied with the ap pointment to the Lee of St. A saph. Dr, Hughes has long Wen known in the parish of Llandovery as a thorough worker and an affable and sympathising man. A BISHOP'S PROTEST. Tho Bishop of Winchester writes to the Times on tho subject of the charge of intoleranze brought against him by Mr. Wintabetham, M.P., in his speech on the education question. his lordship doos not wish to make any personal justification, but it appears to him that far greater interests are involved in the matter. The bon, member for Stroud has unintentionally mis interpreted words of his (the bishop's) in a manner that is calculated to stir up those passions on the education subject that are, most earnestly deprecated by him, It vas stated that his lordship had said that " HYMNS ANCIENT AND MODERN." The Bishop of Durham has refuted a mis representation. The clergymen of South Shields, having resolved to adopt the " Hymns Ancient and Modern " in their several churches, considerablo discussion has taken place on the matter. The Newcastle Daily Express says that it having been freely stated in South Shields that the Bishop of Durham's opinion regarding this hymnal was that it was "the best collection out," a gentleman in the borough wrote to his lordship to ask if such was the case. Ilis lordship, in reply, said he had never expressed any approbation of " Hymns Ancient and Modern." On the contrary, be had frequently stated that he considered some of the hymns objectionable, and many of them rubbish. NEW CHURCH MOVEMENT. When Convention next meets both Homes will be invited to consider a petition,. which is being signed very largely by the laity and clergy, in .favour of an alteration in the prayer for the High Court of Par liament. The petitioners aver that the title "Most Religious King or Queen," in the prayer for the II!gh Court of Parliament, being regarded as out of place in a prayer to Almighty God, gives offence to many both within and without the Church of Eng land. They therefore pray for its removal. MEDICAL REFORM. The Lancet looks hopefully to the speedy intro duction and passage of a measure of medical reform which will put several things right affecting the medical profession, which a g rea t num b er Of its members have long felt to be wrong. The " nineteen licensin- , bodies " are now fairly before the public. Things cannot revert to the status quo ante lellunt ; the publicity:given by the reports and by the criticism of the press to the existence and rivalry of nineteen bodies competing with each other, and, finder temptation to lower both their examinations and their charges in order to attract the greatest number of students, has produced an impression on the public mind which cannot be effaced. It will now b 3 demanded that a parliamentary guarantee be given that a license to practice means acnal fitness for all the emergencies and responsibilities of a doctor's life. THE CONTAGIOUS DISEASES' ACT. "Justina," in the Pall Mall Gazette takes excep tion to Miss Garrett's figures, as shewing that con tagious diseases are much less prevalent on the Con tinent, where legislative measures for the sanitary control of prostitution are resorted to, than they aro in England. The writer says even Mr. Acton, Miss Garrett's authority, States that truth compels him to avow that however much the virulence of disease might be abated and the health of the Brus sels garrison improved within twenty years, there is no m ar k e d i mpro v emen t in the general tone of morals - there. Speaking of the legal recognition of prostitution, "Jus tina" says that it would be the strongest pos sible, - because a thoroughly practical, denial of Christiar.ity. It would, she contends, be the national despair of moral and social progress expressed in an Act of Parliament. It wOutil pronounce the inevitable and •continuous degra dation—generation after generation—of a largo proportion of her sex. It would suffuse the dawn ing minds olthe youth of England with the accursed doctrine that the sin in question is necessary for the • preservation of their health. Further than this she argues that • it would virtually sanction, a 3 well 'as! facilitate, - the most unrestrained indulgence of the passions divorced. from the halowing influence cf affection. Finally, while really increasing, instead of decreasing these physical diseases, which are developed and diffused by pro-, miscuous and unbridled indulgence, it wotdd, she submits, stifle all aspirations after a higher state of social existence, and would contaminate, corrupt, and deaden the moral life of the .whole community. ST. PATRICK'S DAY IN LONDON. The anniversary festival of theßenel;lentSociety of St. Patrick was held at Willis's Rooms, St. James's. The Duk e o f Ab ercorn was i n the chair, and amongst others present were the Earl of Erne, Lord Crichton, M.P., Lord Blayney, Lord Dunsany, Lord Claud Hamilton, Lord Claud John Hamilton, The Earl of Darnley, and the Earl of Bective. The report showed that there were nearly 450 boys and girls of Irish parentage receiving from the society the advantages of a plain useful education, a n d serviceable cothing, together with the midi- Cone' comfort of a breakfast of bread and milk on school days during the winter months. After dinner the Duke of Abercorn proposed " Pro sperity to the Benevolent Society of St. Patrick." He observed that there was one thing which he thought invested this society with a peculiar charm. It was this :—By its arrangements and regulations it knew nothing of exclusiveness. Its charities were given indiscriminately, without regard to sect or denomination. It was to him a source of the greatest satisfaction that even one neutral ground like this was left to Irishmen on which they could. unite and feel a common interest. On that ground, in the consciousness of promoting a national object, they could meet with the mutual satisfaction of being partakers in a good work, THE THORNCLIFFE RIOTERS. True bills have been returned by the grand jury at the York Assizes against the Thorncliffe rioters, and the trial will commence this morning. Mr. Justice Smith, in charging the jury, express3d pretty strongly his idea of the nature of the offences committed by the prisoners. Outrages of this kind, he said, wero in open defiance of the law, and int3r fered very seriously with the welfarq, of the nation and the whole framework of civil society. No objects should be allowed to be harried out by violence and clamour. The freedom of the subject must be preserved by the Government. The wording of the charges, throe in number, indicates a proba bility of the case going hard with those prisoners who may be convicted ; and certainly the fact of a fresh outrage having just been committed on a non-unionist miner by fourteen men, will not tend to turn public opinion in favour of men who cart be guilty of such crimes. Y ~r ASSISTANCE TO EMIGRATION. Mrs. Gladstone, the wife of the Premier, has taken up a case of self-help on the part of a body of men wishing to emigrate. Twenty-one Lana- , beth workmen, who represent fifty people (men, women, and children), in the midst of great distress from the want of constant work, have saved about £3 a head, and placed this in a fund for emigration. ThV desire to emigrate at once, but £2 a head, say £l2O, is needed, which Mrs. Gladstone thinks will be immediately forthcoming when the self-denying struggle of the men is made known. DAIRY PRODUCE IN LIVERPOOL. Mr. Norman Tate has been lecturing at Liverpool on "Home Chemistry," and his revelations in regard to the preparation of milk and butter are not at all likely to increase the Liverpool ttppetite for these household necessaries. During the last few years, he says, he has testel many speci mens of milk sold in different distiicts in Liver pool, and found that adulteration by water averagei from 9 to 25 per cent. Excepting water, he found no foreign matter whi c h h e could stigma tise as objectionable , save sugar, which- is commonly added to conceal the watering process. In the matter of butter, however, it was different. One specimen of cream containedf chalk starch, a substanc3 which Mr. Tate believed to be the brains of some ani mal, and perhaps a little milk. Butter that contained cheesy matter he says quickly becomes rancid. As to Liverpool butter, ho could not say so much for the kratterman as the milkman. Butter, he added, was inimigakeably adulterated ti a very large extent, chiefly by animal fats, which were not absolutely injitrious, though an ob]eotionable substitute for genuine graEs-fed butter.

The ship Madge Wildfire, from Savannah, reports that on March 12th, in lat. 50.30, long. 21 W., she spoke a brig rigged Cunard steamship, supposed to be the Samaria. The Madge Wildfire bore down upon her, and signalled if assistance was required. The reply was " No." She will now be in the vicinity of Cape Clear. Nothing has yet been heard by the Messrs. Inman of the missing steamer City of Boston. THE UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE. OXFORD, Friday Evening. Another change has taken place in the crew, Mr . R. Tahourdin, St. John's, one of the best members of the boat, having been compelled to relinquish his chance of rowing through indisposition. The presi dent, fortunately, had a good man to fall back upon in the person of Mr. Mirehouse, University, who rowed bow when the crew was first formed, and has been in and out of the boat ever since. The change necessitated the removal of Mr. Wood house, University, from No. 1 to No. 6, for Mr. Mire house to occupy his former position. With these changes Mr. Willan, of Exeter, coached the crew from his steed over the "long course"---the distance, 44 miles, being accomplished in 20 min. 45 ace., the wind and stream being favourable.
