THE RE!ISTRATION COURTS. WO= CLAIMANTS.—The question whether women should he put on the register has been tried, among other places, in North Essex. The revising barrister said the words in the Act were, " every man," and he should require strong evidence that. Mrs. was a man. He should not be satisfied with less than ocular demon stration. (Laughter.) It was expressly provided that women should not vote, and it was a waste of time to argue the question. The ladies must come out. They would next, per haps, be claiming to serve on juries, or to be drawn for the militia. The overseer of the parish said that one of the ladies told him she should vote for Church and State. The revising barrister said he did not care about that. If the lady could vote she would probably be killed going to the poll. (Laughter.) A Voice : Oh, no ; the ladies would be sure to be protected. (Renewed laughter.) The revising barrister then proceeded to strike out the names of all the females on the Braintree list, remarking that it was a very painful duty to massacre the innocents in this way, but it must nevertheless be performed. He should, with all respect, have struck out her Majesty had she been on the list. LODGER CLAIMS.—In Lambeth, on Wednesday, a number of women were present, and wve admitted to prove that the lodgings their husbands occupied were worth £lO a year. Indeed, in some cases the revising barrister courteously extended the privilege of giving evidence of value to women who appeared for their neighbours. In one such case a woman fr.= Cedar-place, Vauxhall, first of all having proved that the lodgings her husband occu pied were of the required value, proceeded to state that she could prove that those occupied by half a dozen claimants were all right.—The Revising Barrister : Why, you are attorney-general for the whole neighbourhood. (Laughter.) I hope you get your expenses paid. The woman shook her head, amidst renewed laughter. The revising barrister, however, admitted the claims, and asked her whether she bad got all her friends on. Having curtseyed an affirmative, she left the court. SIR STAFFORD NORTHCOTE AT BIDEFORD. A very noisy meeting took place at Bideford on Tuesday afternoon. Addresses were delivered at an open-air meeting by Sir Stafford Northcote and Mr. Walroncl, the Conservative candidates for North Devon. They were frequently interrupted, and could with difficulty obtain a hearing. The audience numbered about 2,000, and the Liberal element was strongly represented. At the close of the speeches, which were a recapitulation of the sentiments previously expressed, Sir Stafford Northcote was asked a number of questions. The right hon. gentleman said :—I consider the introduction of Romanising practices into the Church of England as one of the greatest evils of the day, and if I can see my way to any remedy for it that does not intro duce worse evils I will certainly support the remedy. But I cannot pledge myself upon any measure of that kind until I have seen it. 2. The Maynooth Grant must de pend upon the course that Parliament takes with regard to the disendowment of the Irish Church—(hear, hear). My opinion is that the principles of the present settlement are right, but if the property of the Protestant Irish Church is to be taken away, I take it for granted that the endow ment of Maynooth must also be taken away. 3. No proposition ever was made in the House of Commons for the endowment of any Roman Catholic University. (A Voice : " Lord Mayo.") No, Lord Mayo never made any such proposal in the House of Commons as to endow any Roman Catholic university at all. What he did say was, that a communication was going on between the Govern ment and the authorised representatives of the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland which might have led to a proposal to grant a charter for a Roman Catholic 'Univer sity in Ireland. My belief is that if a proposal had been made to the prelates in Ireland and the Roman Catholic Church by the Government with regard to the matter, and it had been accepted, we should have been prepared to have brought forward such a proposition befere the House of Commons, and should have been prepared to justify it; because as Roman Catholics pay their share of the taxes, it is quite right that they should have their share of the benefit. It was not proposed to endow a university, but it was proposed—there being a Roman Catholic university in Ireland which is maintained prin cipally by Roman Catholic funds—it was proposed to give such university the power of granting degrees and completing the education of Roman Catholics in that country, provided they would have consented to let the education be of a lay character, and not of a simple priestly character. Because it was felt by us that the great evil which is to be found in the Roman Catholic Church is not so much as to the doctrines—which really must not be taken into consideration —but with regard to the influence of the university over the lay por tion of the population ; and what he desired to see established was, a Roman Catholic University in which the young men of Ireland could be educated on the same principles with reference to their own Church as young men in England are educated upon at the universities. There might have been a small grant made to such a university if it had been established. It would have come out of the general taxation of the country, of which the Roman Catholics pay a part. Whether it would have been laid upon tea or sugar I am unable to say. 4. I amnot prepared to vote for the ballot. With regard to bribery, a bill thereon was passed during the present session of Parliament, and my name appears on the back of the bill. It was a very imperfect bill. 5. lam quite prepared to support some sort of a measure giving the ratepayers a voice in the disposition of the rates ; but I am not pre pared to say what would be the nature of the measure. — Mr. Pynsent : On the last question hinge all the previous ones. (" Oh, oh !") Are the electors of North Devon to understand that any pledges or promises made by you this day are to be regarded as null and void, provided your master and teacher educate you to abandon them ? (Much laughter.) Sir Stafford: I have been perfectly ready to answer all questions put to me by my friend Mr. Pynsent, without asking whether he was or was not a voter, because I believe those questions were put in a bond fide spirit.—Mr. Pysent : I wish to know whether it is intended that these promises shouldbefulfilled, or, on the contrary, treated as those which you made at Southmolton. (Laughter, and a voice : " You don't pay poor rates.") — Sir Stafford : I decline to answer that question, simply because I believe that it is intended as an insult. (Hear, hear.) Sir Stafford was also asked whether he would vote for the abolition of the university tests, thereby conferring tardy justice on the great body of Protestant Dissenters. The right hon. gentleman answered : I should not see any objection to the admission of Dissenters to education at the universities, or to the enjoyment of any endowments that might be made for themselves; but I should object to the abolition of tests for the admission of any persons to endowments that were intended for another communion. The proceedings shortly afterwards ended with a vote of thanks to the chairman. THE MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF THE HUN GARIAN COLONEL BENIEZKI.—A letter in the Vienna Presse, dated Pesth, Sept. 9, says :—" This morning an official telegram has been addressed to the Consulate of Pesth, stating that the body of Beniezki was found yesterday in the forest of Assad. By the side of the body was found a note, stating that Beniezki had been kept a prisoner long enough, and that it was only on the 7th of September he bad been killed. The note was s'gned, ' The League.'" The condition in which the body was found corresponds with the alleged date of the murder. A VISITOR AT MARGATE DROWNED WHILE BATHING.— A visitor at Margate, named William Dalby, was seized with the cramp while bathing from a machine near the Newgate coastguard station, and drowned. The deceased was a single man, about 25 years of age, a gilder Icy- trade, and papers found in his pocket bore the address, " William the Fourth," Langley. He was bathing with a friend, and being an expert swimmer went out a con siderable distance beyond his depth. Ho was suddenly seen to sink by persons on the cliff, and the alarm was immediately raised. He came to the surface a second time, but was not seen again. His friend rushed about the water in a frantic manner, and several boats put off to the assistance of the -young man, including the coastguard boat, but not knowing the exact locality where deceased disappeared, and the people on the dill pointing out different places where to search for him, they were of no use. A coastguard man named Patience dived several times after the deceased, but without success. The drag was then brought into requisition, and after half an hour's searching the body of the deceased was recovered, Life was then extinct. ENI.NG rllusliuMs, &C. ON SUNDAYS. 011 Wednesday evening a public meeting, convened by the Working Men's Lord's Day Rest Association, was held in the National School-room, Peckham, under the presidency of the Tev. J. Hayeroft. The following resolution wag moved by the Rev. G. M. Murphy, and carried : " That this meeting would suggest to electors the impor tance of returning to Parliament representatives who would exert their influence to secure SUnday as a day of rest to the working classes, and who would oppose the increase of unnecessary Sunday labour by voting against any pro, posal to open the national museums, &c., on Sundays.' Mr. C. Hill, in seconding the resolution, said that the Sunday opening party had strong hopes of increasing their parliamentary influence at the general election, ane had threatened to renew their agitation for opening museums, &c., on Sundays " in the first session of OH reformed Parliament." The best way to meet that agita tion would be to oppose the election of those candidatei who would not pledge themselves to vote against opening Intisening. !M. HER MAJESTY'S RECOGNITION OF A HIGHLANDER ON THE RIGHI. "A Highlander Abroad," in a letter to the Inverness Courkr, giving a few notes of a recent visit to Switzer land, relates the following incident :—" A few days after doing' Mount Pilatus, we made a party to ascend the Righi, which is much easier' to accomplish. A panorama of three hundred miles in circumference is visible from the summit ! While we were admiring the view, we observed a party of ladies on horseback coming up to the flagstaff where we all were standing. The first pony was led by a stout, handsome fellow in the Highland dress, and we soon saw that the visitor was the Queen, accom panied by thetwoprincesses, Prince Arthur, the Marchioness of Ely, and an equerry. The royal party soon mired with the crowd at the top, admiring the scene from every point of view. The Queen looked well and perfectly happy. As she passed to and fro the gentlemen touched their hats. I lifted my Highland bonnet, and as her Majesty passed I heard her say to the gillie, wonder who that Scotch gentle man is ?' The Highlander eyed me very keenly, but he could only report that I wore knickerbockers of a certain hunting tartan. Shortly afterwards the equerry came up. ' Pardon me, sir,' he said, ' but her Majesty, who takes an interest in all around her, requested me to come and ask your name, as she is anxious to know it.' In re ply 1 said I was Captain —, late of the regiment, and that on one occasicn I had the honour of being on a guard of honour to her Majesty at Balmoral. He then gave me his name, and went off down hill to satisfy the Queen's curiosity as to the Highland bonnet and the tartan. This little incident shows the predilection that her Majesty has for everything Highland." RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT ABERGELE. On Wednesday another collision occurred on the Chester and Holyhead Railway, at a place very near to the scene of the dreadful calamity which happened the other day at Abergele. This newly-reported accident is like the other in this, that an express train ran into a luggage train which was being shunted. It appears that the 2.40 p.m. express train from Chester was passing through the station at Holy well, when it came into colli sion with a number of luggage trucks which were being shunted from the down to the up line. At the instant of collision the luggage train occupied portions of both lines. It is said that there was no signal up to denote that the line was blocked, or that there was any danger in pro ceeding. The engine-driver and the stoker saved them selves by leaping from the engine to the ground a moment before the collision occurred. Three of the trucks were broken all to pieces. The break-van was thrown across the up line. The buffers and the front of the express engine were broken, and the steps of several of the carriages attached to the express train-were " shaved " off, and their footboards were splintered and broken. Several of the passengers were slightly injured. SERIOUS EXPLOSION. A contemporary states that on Tuesday morning a quarryman, named Pennington, employed at the Ken dalfell stone quarries, was seriously injured by an explosion of gun cotton. Ho was preparing a "blasting" charge, and while ramming home the gun cotton, which is now extensively used for such purposes in mines, the latter suddenly exploded, caused, it is supposed, in consequence of the boring rod being too small, and the st, mmer, thus coming sharply in contact with the dangerous compound, acted as a sort of percussional explosive. A portion of one of Pennington's arms was blown almost entirely off, the hand being held only by a ligament ; one of his eyes was also dangerously in jured, and he was seriously burned and hurt about the head and face. He was at once removed to his home, and medical assistance was called in, but, al though three doctors were one after another requested to attend each declined—one because he had been up all night, another on the ground of " inability," and the third on ac count of being at his breakfast. Meanwhile, the unfortunate man was lying at home, his wounds unbound, and him self falling into a syncope through loss of blood. The accident caused the greatest excitement to prevail in the neighbourhood of Fellside, where Pennington resides; and when the refusal of the medical prac titioners became known a number of persons rushed into the main street, and for a time a com motion but little removed from an indignation riot prevailed. Ultimately, however, on the interfe rence of the mayor, who was applied to, a doctor was obtained, and the injurel arm amputated. It is worthy of remark, as illustrating the dangerous, explosive nature of gun cotton, that during an experiment subsequently made it was found that by striking a piece sharply with a hammer it would explode with a suddenness, a force, and a renort each in every way similar to that of gmipowder. LAW AND POLICE. SHEFFIELD INTIMIDATION. —An application has been made before Mr. Justice Hannen, at chambers, on the part of the three men, named Hinchcliffe, Armstrong, and Sanderson, who were convicted before Mr. Justice Lush, on the Northern Circuit, at Leeds, last month, for conspiracy and intimidation, as members of the Working Masons' Trades Union, and were sentenced by his lordship to four months' imprisonment. On account of the sentence it was understood a writ of error bad been brought on the part of the defendants, and they were brought up from Wakefield prison by a writ of habeas corpus, and several persons attended to put in bail to pro secute the writ of error. Mr. M. Williams supported the application, and Mr. Welsh opposed. Several technical arguments followed, chiefly relating to the bail. His lordship ordered the matter to stand over, and on the pro secution being satisfied with the bail, notice would be given. The only question was one of bail. CITY CLERKS.—William Taylor, a City clerk, has been charged at the Mansion House with stealing a cash-box containing about £lOO. He was remanded.—Another clerk, named Henry Wallis, was charged with forging and uttering a cheque for £BO, with intent to defraud Messrs. Dimsdale and Co. He had altered a cheque of £8 to £BO. The Lord Mayor committed him for trial, and he was then charged with stealing three bills of exchange for £420. CURIOUS APPLICATION.—James Kirby was summoned before Mr. Tyrwhitt for refusing to maintain two illegal mate children, of which Fanny Preston had sworn he was the putative father. Mr. Sayer, from the office of Mr. Edward Lewis, appeared for the complainant, and Mr. Kane for the defelidant. Mr. ,Kane wished to make a short statement of facts. The parties had lived together as man and wife for some time; the defendant did not deny being the father of the children, he did not decline to maintain them, but he had offered to marry the complainant, and make her an honest woman, notwithstanding the complainant, who was of violent temper, was in the habit of knocking him about. Mr. Tyrwhitt thought the offer was a fair one ; but the complainant said she would be " hanged at Newgate first." Mr. Tyrwhitt made an order for 2s. 6d. per week for the youngest child. FORGERY.-At the justice-room of the Mansion House, Gerson Wetzlar, described as a merchant, was brought before the Lord Mayor, in custody of Detective-sergeant Foulger, on the charge of forgfng and uttering a bill of exchange with intent to defraud. After hearing the evi dence the Lord Mayor committed him for trial, refusing bail. A BOY KILLED IN THE BROMPTON-ROAD.— Between seven and eight o'clock on Tuesday evening, a lad named Henry Tressider, aged about ten years, of Radnor street, Chelsea, was run over by an omnibus close to the Consumption Hospital in the Brompton-road. He was immediately conveyed to St. George's Hospital, but life was found to be extinct. The Bristol and Exeter Railway Company, of which the Earl of Devon is the chairman, have iptimated to the officials employed on the line that " they are to vote according to their political principles, or to abstain from voting, as they may think fit." The directors will abstain from any interference with the elective privileges of the staff, and any attempt at the exercise of influence by one officer of the company upon another will be dealt with by the board. THE VISIT OF ENGLISH RIFLEMEN TO BELGIUM. —The first of a series of cheap special excursions, for the accommodation of volunteers and their friend; &c., visit ing Brussels, was despatched on Wednesday afternoon front Bishopsgate Station at 4.25.. A large number of volunteers went by it. Another cheap special is to be despatched at the same time on Saturday afternoon. VISIT OF ENGLISH VOLUNTEER. RIFLEMEN TO IRELAND.—The council of the Ulster Rifle Association of Ireland, of which the Right Hon. Lord Dufferin and Clandeboye, is the president, has made special arrangements this year for the visit at the ensuing rifle meeting of as many English volunteers as like to honour the association with their presence, tc compete for the prizes to be offered. The meeting, which is open to all comers, will be held on the 22nd and 23rd inst., at Clandeboye, near Belfast, and as an inducement for volunteers to attend and compete, Lord Dufferin has pre. sented prizes amounting in value to over £lOO, to be shot for with smallbores and Enfields. It is anticipated that many riflemen will avail themselves of this opportunity of visiting the sister isle. The notice announcing the rifle meeting states that " volunteers can cross to Belfast by steamers every evening from Liverpool, Fleetwood, BarroW-in-Furness, and Glasgow ; alsoriflemen who reside in districts in connection with the Caledonian Railway can cross clve:• ; .2; a D r C 11,nhadeet short se* THE PA PAL ZO UA VES. In our last issue we dwelt upon the duty in cumbent upon us in England to do our part in increasing the number and the efficiency of the Papal Zouaves. We were not speaking without cause, nor, we may add, without due information, as to the preparations which the Revolutionary party were making for another attack upon Rome. There are many reasons, apart from any hope of success, for the now combined action of Mazzini and Garibaldi ; their chief aim, at present is to increase the distrust which exists in Italy of the existing, system of Government, and nothing could com plicate matters more irrevocably than to force the ministry to choose between the French alliance and a renewed connivance at a Gari baldian invasion of the Roman territory. A rupture between France and the Italian Go vernment would aid their views, for it would leave Italy a prey to the Revolutionary party, but a forcible repression of the Garibaldian hordes, at tilt, bidding of France, would not come amiss to them, for it would sting Italian vanity to the quick, and fan the flame of dis content, until it broke out into open revolt. Mazzini is waiting for such an opportunity, and he is not likely to wait long, for the unhappy Italians are smarting under two evils, wounded vanity and national bankruptcy. The inglorious part they played in the last war has been flung in their teeth again by the dis graceful disclosures of rival generals ; the con temptuous manner in which their military character is spoken of by France and Prussia, the consciousness, which is no longer to be con cealed by empty gasconading, of their impo tence to pursue any course but that chalked out for them by one or other of their two rival allies and protectors, have exasperated to the utmost a vain-glorious people. In such a frame of mind the nation sees itself on the verge of bankruptcy, which can only be staved off by a resolute reducing of its vast, yet fruitless, expenditure on its army and navy. Unaccus tomedto such a grinding taxation, and smart ing from a wounded national vanity, the people of the Revolutionary kingdom turn upon their discomfited rulers with a cry for vengeance. Mazzini, with his accustomed craft, is at hand, and whispers in their ear that the fitting punish ment for a Government which has betrayed Italian unity and sacrificed Italian interests to • France, is to force that Government either to break with Napoleon and side with Garibaldi, or to strike down Garibaldi and proclaim itself openly by its acts to be the persistent servant of France. To give effect to his councils, Mazzini, in conjunction with Garibaldi, has established a new secret society, to be called the " Vendetta di Mentana," for the double purpose of avenging the ignominious defeat of Garibaldi at Mentana, and the betrayal, at the last moment, on the part of the Govern ment, of the expedition into the hands of France, by the withdrawal of the Italian troops. The scheme is not ill conceived, the invasion of the Papal States, if opposed by the Italian Government, will not only destroy a ministry, but endanger what Mazzini most desires—the monarchy itself. If secretly con ' nived at, but not supported, it will lead to the prolonged occupation of Rome by France, to the destruction of the Garibaldian Volun teers by the Papal Zouaves, and to a national humiliation, which cannot fail to deepen and intensify, as Mazzini desires, the deepseated discontent that now exists. But should the Government be forced to take part in the Vendetta di Mentana, the result would be a war with France, perhaps a European war, and in the universal turmoil Italy would be either avenged, as Mazzini hopes, or destroyed. It would be, in reality, Roma, o morte ! Men like Mazzini, familiar with conspiracy, in which the innocent and guilty blood of others may be shed like water, themselves standing aloof from danger, are wonderfully reckless of consequences, so long as the idea which they are possessed of has a chance of realization. The folly or the criminal character of the attempt is no surety that it will not be risked. Ambition or vanity has darkened their judgment, and the souls of such men are familiar with bloodguiltiness. Men must therefore be on their guard, and not judge that because an act is absurd in the extreme and too criminal to be accounted pcssible by ordi nary men, that, therefore, it will not be com mitted. The invasion of the Papal States by the Mazzinia,ns and Garibaldians, foolish as it may seem after the experience of last year, and criminal as it is judged to be by every man who can distinguish between right and wrong, is nevertheless but too likely to be attempted. It is our duty, therefore, not indeed to be alarmists, but to be prepared for every emergency; it would be a disgrace to the Catholics of Europe if through supineness or over-confidence, they allowed the gallant army of the Pope to be surprised before they had sent it a sufficient supply of men and arms.— ; Westminster Gazette. MR. MURPHY AND THE MANCHESTER MAGISTRATES. Catholics, we believe, may safely leave Mr. Murphy and his coarse and brutal slanders of Catholic priests and nuns to the verdict of public opinion in England. We do not know how far Orange fanaticism goes in Ireland, but the calumnies uttered by Mr. Murphy at Manchester and elsewhere have excited here universal indignation in every educated man, and in every man who regards a slanderer as worse than a thief. No Catholic priest, no Sister of Charity, is injured by the vile abuse of a man who must have lost all self respect and sense of decency before he could have brought himself publicly to utter accu sations which every one on a moment's reflec tion cannot but see are, and must be, simple calumnies. To this part of the subject, there fore, we have no need of alluding, but what does require some explanation is the con duct of the magistrates at Manchester. Why was Mr. Murphy, after he had been bound to find bail to keep the peace, allowed, under the pretext that he was a candidate for the representation of Manchester, to hold a public meeting and deliver an address, by which the peace of the city was broken? The magistrates are bound to prevent a breach of the peace, and by compelling Mr. Murphy to find bail for his good conduct whilst in Manchester, they, as the event proved, took a wise precau tion. But how comes it that his "bail is not now estreated, and the Orange lecturer himself not again bound over to keep the peace ? To punish the rioters at Manchester, and to allow the disturber of the public peace to forfeit his bail and go unpunished, cannot but have a mis chievous effect on the Irish population of Man chester. It will seem as if Mr. Murphy were allowed with impunity to break the law, and that only those were punished who committed the offence which it was apprehended by the magistrates would be committed, if so violent and slanderous a speaker were allowed to hold a public meeting in Manchester, and deliver the insulting harangues which in other places had provoked serious disturbances. That Mr. Murphy, who on sworn informations that his conduct would lead to a breach of the peace, was formally prohibited by the magistrates from delivering his harangues, should never theless set the law at defiance with impunity under the simple pretext that he was address ing body of electors, seems impossible. It is to be hoped that some public explanation will be offered ; it were better for the magis trates of Manchester to acknowledge, if such be the truth, that they were afraid of the con sequences of taking decided steps against Mr. Murphy; it were better to confess that justice was balked of its rights by the fear of Orange violence, rather than let it appear that it had betrayed its trust by dealing out punishment to the Catholic rioters at Manchester, and letting the Orange disturber of the peace and violator of his bail go scot free.—TVestminster Gazette. Mr. M. Firth, the Master Cutler, of Sheffield, is about to erect and endow 36 almshouses, at a cost of 434000. THE SUN, LONDON, THUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1868. 7HE COUNTRY OF 7HE PACIFIC RAIL- ROAD. (From the Anglo-American Times.) The interest excited in America—indeed through out the civilized world—by the Pacific Railway has induced during the vacation the travel of states men and editors in that direction. In consequence the American papers are filled with information about the line, and the country it pastes through. Grant and Sherman, with their party, Colfax and Governor Bross, with their party, and Blair, who is one of the three commissioners deputed by Govern ment to superintend the construction, have all found their way to the Rocky Mountains. We propose to cull what we can to give our readers a correct impression of the country between Omaha and Salt Lake City. On the right bank of the Missouri stands Omaha City, and opposite, on the left bank, is Council Bluffs. The river there divides the State of lowa from the territory of Nebraska, but the two towns will shortly be connected by a bridge. The population of Council Bluffs is 8,000, and the town lies mainly back from the river on the Bluffs in beau tiful and wooded ravines, while the newer portion stands by the river on the bottom lands in which the railways centre. Omaha rises directly from the river, and it now contains a population exactly double that of Council Bluffs. For the first 150 miles or so west the country is undulating prairie, well watered, fertile, and with a good equable climate. Then the roll of the prairie ceases, and the plains begin, formerly, but erroneously, called the American Desert; water and timber are scantier, but there is abundant pasturage for flocks and herds, and in places wheat may be grown with out artificial irrigation. At North Platte, 291 miles from Omaha, the road crosses the river on a bridge 3,000 feet long. At Cheyenne (pro nounced shayan), 516 miles from Omaha, the so called plain ends and the mountain region commences. The town, which consists of 4,000 inhabitants, though its first tent was only pitched July 13, 1867, stands 6,000 feet above the sea level. So gradual and imperceptible is the rise that Omaha is in truth the base of the Rocky Mountains, though many hundreds of miles distant from their summit. Be tween that city and Cheyenne there are three.de pots, with engine -houses and shops. The first is Grand Island, 153 miles from Omaha ; North Platte, 291 ; and Sydney, 414 miles. From Cheyenne there are two further in advance :—Laramie 572, and Creston, which marks the highest poiut the road touches in the Rocky Mountains, where the water begins to fall to the Pacific side, 738 miles. Green River is 101 miles further, and to this stream the road will be finished by the end of this month (September). Twenty-five miles further, at a place called Harris's Fork, the line will branch for the Montana territory, and from that spot Salt Lake City is distant but 162 miles. These figures show that Salt Lake City is 1,026 miles from Omaha, and as Cheyenne is 516, it marks the Half-Way- Station. West from Cheyenne the road ascends the Black Hills, the foot range of the Rocky Moun tains reaching Sherman in 32 miles, the highest point touched from the Missouri to the junc tion with the Central Pacific, for although but a foot range the pass is at a greater altitude than at the Rocky Mountains. The atmosphere is brilliant, rarefied, exhilarating and clear to an asto nishingdegree. Before the traveller are the strange peaks of the Black Hills, rising in curiously fashioned outline. Here, like the ruins of a fort ; there, as if on the crest stood a town ; again, spread out against the sky, the outline of a steamer. The colour is a rich black ; at one place whitened with snow and at others sprinkled, while down in the valleys the grass grows green and the pasture is dotted with flowers: Streams flow through them ; and though the plains are bare of timber, the foliage of trees rustles on the mountain sides. The bright pure water is broken by the splash of trout, and deer and antelope bound over the open expanse. G rouse rise from the cover, and wild mountain sheep g raze on the slo p es. Once the mountains must have barred the road like a wall, but the feldspar and granite have dis integrated into fine gravel, opening broad canons, which form a natural path with the finest possible railway bed, as if designed by nature to forward the interests of the line. White such is the aspect of the country before and around, away south rise in grandeur the mountains of Colorado, 14,000 feet above the sea level, and glittering for many thou sands in a mantle of snow. Though they look but 50 miles distant, they are, in truth, over 150. To the right a chain of dark hills bounds the view, passed, the trav e ll e r gaze s at at a t:e d Rocky is over the real s w i h e e rr n a s S h o e f r m thane Rios desert. Just beyond the crossing of the northern most branch of the North Platte this desert begins. Its hue is ashy--without a tree or even a blade of grass, and covered with a delicate poisonous dust. Alkali whitens the soil, and makes bitter the water, and the sage bush only thrives. The " Bitter Creek" country embraces the Rocky Mountain range, extending 150 miles ; and although the eye everywhere rests on snowy sierras, the country over which the line here passes is in the highest degree uninteresting. It ends on the other slope where the traveller reaches Green river, the main branch of the Colorado. We hope to have an early op portunity of describing the country between that river and Salt Lake city, but for the present we prefer giving a sketch of the towns grow ing up en route. Of these Cheyenne and Laramie are the most considerable. The former has 400 shanties, of which one out of every five is tc a saloon, a dancing-house, or a hell." There are two churches and one school-house ; and, what may well surprise European readers, three daily newspapers. There is a mayor and a board of aldermen, and, more necessary still—a vigilance committee. Fort Russell is three miles from the city, and a lake is near with banks 50 feet high and several boiling springs. Thirty miles to the north there is a mountain composed of magnetic iron, and 12 miles south-west is another bed of red iron ore. Coal also exists, and is used in the town and on the rail. George Francis Train laid the foundation in Cheyenne of a grand hotel, which is still un finished. Doubts exist of the stability of the town, and although the railway people incline we believe to its maintenance, it is still an open ques tion to be determined when the branch road to Denver is settled. Julesburgh was last year re ported to be a prosperous city ; this year unless the conductor pointed out the site the traveller would be wholly unaware that he was passing a locality whereon a town once stood. It has moved west, and perhaps a large portion of it might now be found at Benton, the present head of the line close on 700 miles from Omaha, and situated in the desert. There, over 1,500 persons are gathered in tents anti board shanties, of whom the railroad employa between 100 and 200, and of the rest the great bulk run restaurants and saloons, " loaf," and speculate, or keep cheap stores. The locality is adapted for the society of Benton, both being most detestable. The white poisonous dust of the desert penetrates everywhere, and wherever it pene trates is unmitigated vice. The town moves with the railway, which is now 44 miles beyond it, and shortly it will be transferred to Green River, and the pro bability is that it will remain during the winter at Harris's Fork, 25 miles still further on. Were it not for this constant change of site it would perish from the impurities generated. Coming into a fresh locality, it leaves behind it an aggregate amount of offensiveness for nature to purify, conta minating the country at wide intervals. Such a com munity would rot, and breed a pestilence if long de tained, and the more frequent the change the betterfor the railway people, who charge from $5OO to $l,OOO for a building lot, which in one or two months will be useless. The site of Benton alone yielded them from $30,000 to $lO,OOO. The editor or correspon dent who finds himself in a car of the Union Pacific Railway has no right to grumble at his treatment. The train carries a cook, three waiters, a dinner service, plenty of provisions, and three meals a day are supplied. At night he has a comfortable cur tained bed, with clean sheets, but nothing can keep out the dust, and if the window ba left open the traveller emerges in a thick coating of alkali cry stals and road dust. The lodging and boarding houses of the labourers working at the head of the line keep pace with th e track. In their rear is a log tali wits kitchen and dining room, for. one portion, and tents for the rest, which are pitched at the spot they reach at night. With that train browse the sheep and cattle which supply fresh meat, and the contractors, the Brothers Casement, of Ohio, board their workmen at a charge each of $2O per mensem, though the cost to them is $3O. In the account given by Mr. Bowles, who accompanied his friend Speaker Colfax, mention is made of a dinner to which they were invited by the workmen, as they happened to be at the end of the line when the dinner train came up. There was boiled beef, pork and beans, tomatoes, peas and potatoes, pre served peaches and blackberries, bread and butter, tea and coffee, all excellent, and the best-cooked meal the Colfax party had eaten since leaving Omaha. As the material reaches us we will con tinue these Notes till we give our readers an idea of the country to San Francisco.

Whitney read a paper of great interest " On the Discovery of the Human Skull in Calaveras County, California." We extract the report from the Spring field Republican :—" The skull, as your readers know, was discovered in February, 1866, in a mine belonging to Scribner and Matterson ; it lay imbedded in a mass of " cement," or gravelly detritus near the bottom of a deep shaft, which had been sunk vertically about 200 feet, through a hill of the hardest rock ; near it was a piece of petrified oak ; when found, its real nature was hardly discoverable, and the finder supposed it might be part of the root of a fossil tre , . Dr. William Jones, the leading physician and surgeon of that region, in June, 1866, wrote to the State Geologist, stating the facts about this discovery. Professor Whitney shortly after this came in possession of the skull, and has himself visited, on several occasions, the locality where it was found. All the geological pheno mena of the region correspond to the statements of Scribner and Matterson, Dr. Jones and the miners, about the discovery. It was impracticable for Professor Whitney or his assistants to go to the bottom of the shaft, where the discovery was made, it being full of water, but they carefully ques tioned the miners about the minute details of the finding of this bony wonder. The testimony was most explicit, and they were quite without motive to falsehood, knowing, as they did, nothing about the bearing of the matter scientifically, or its refe rence to the question of the antiquity of man. Mr. Matterson took the skull with his own hand from " Bed No. 8," encased as it was in cement or gravel, and lying in the channel of an ancient river bed. The lower jaw, the entire parietal and occipital parts, and the lover part of the base are gone. The frontal bone is almost entire, as are the bones of the face. It is evidently the skull of an aged per son, as the condition of the teeth aid in showing. It was covered with a thin incrustation of calcareous tufa when discovered, and not till a few weeks since was any change made in its condition, when Pro fessor Whitney chiselled away the tufa from its surface. A small circular piece of shell is attached to the skull, which might have once served as an ornament. It is evidently no ordinary skull picked up at random; it has the appearance of having been violently broken in the thickest part; it was probably swept away from the place of original deposit by the action of water; the position in which it was found seems to Professor 'Whitney conclusive proof of an antiquity far exceeding that of the historic Adam. Dr. Wyman has examined the skull with special reference to its ethnological relations, or its kindred with the skull shapes of living races. lie found it large in the frontal re gion, the face somewhat deformed, the region over the orbits strongly marked, the molar or cheek bones prominent. He says it presents no sign of belonging to a race inferior to the race now-inha biting California ; wherein it differs, it approxi mates the characteristics of the Esquimaux. It was found imbedded in the fresh water tertiary deposits of the Sierra Nevada, and as far as geological data now ascertained bear witness, it is probably coeval, in origin with the formation of the very ancient deposit. This scientific hypothesis, if established, would show that this broken-headed antiquity, an tedated by many, many ages, the good old times of Eden ; perhaps the owner of this skull then was the original sinner ; indeed, his remains look as though he might have been a " hard case." The skull was found in the same deposit with the fossil bones of the mastodon and other extinct species of animals; a still further corroboration of the hypo tbesis in question. Professor Whitney classes the formation in which the skull was found in the pliocene division, and thinks it not too bold for an American geologist to speculate about a pliocene man, when the Europeans are beginning to fellow ship in thought with a miocene man. Professor Whitney exhibited also a large number of other fossil specimens from the Sierra Nevada region ; among them a number of species quite now to the geologist ; in addition, he was able to show to the academy a number of Indian relics, just obtained at Holyoke, where an extensive Indian burial ground had just been opened in the exca vations for a new road ; some copper utensils were among these relics, and some articles quite unknown among earlier discoveries of this sort. Dr. Newbury, of Detroit, followed with a few forceful words. Ho felt that it was too soon for a thorough discussion of- this important question, since the data were not complete nor of final authority. A species of the existing flora was found with this skull, showing that it was not impossible that it belonged to the same class as here found in caves, and plainly not pre-Adamic. Professor Whitney considered it proved that this skull could not be so classified. Professor Guyot was satisfied with the truth of all the circum stances cited, and yet did not feel that they forced us back, by necessity, to an antiquity much, if at all, greater than the limit of historic data. Accord ing to geological testimony it was altogether pro bable that the historic human race had been con temporary with the mastodon and some other now extinct species of animals. lie believed more scien tific proof necessary to a rational conviction of the existence of the pre-historic skull in question. Dr. Newbury said u few words controverting what he regarded as the too easily chosen position of Pro fessor Guyot. Professor Lesley also made an argu ment of some length in opposition to Professor Guyot. Professor Brewer said a few words i❑ con firmation of the position taken by Professor Whit ney, drawing his argument from actual observations made by himself in regard to the gravel fromwhich the skull had been taken.

NOTICE AND RESIDENCE. The period of residence to be required from each of the parties to be married in the parishes or districts where they respectively give notice of their intention to intermarry, before they can re ceive a certificate of compliance with the legal preliminaries, ought, we think (ordinarily), to be fifteen days after notice given, in cases where the party giving the notice is personally known to the minister or officer receiving it, and when both parties profess themselves to be of the rame reli gious persuasion, and do not signify their wish to be married by a minister, or according to the usage, of any other persuasion. If these condi tions are not all fulfilled, we think it should (ordinarily) be the duty of the minister or officer to withhold his certificate tilt after the expiration of twenty-one days from the date of the notice. At the end of the time limited, if all other legal requisites have been duly complied with, a certifi cate of compliance (which should, in a'l cases, state the date of the notice, and whether the t arty is personally known to the certifying minister or officer or not) should be given to each party ; and it should not be lawful for any minister or civil officer to solemnize marriage without the produc tion, by each party, of such certificate. It has, however, been suggested to us, by wit nesses from different parts of the United Kingdom, that power ought to be given to some proper authority to dispense, in proper cases, with the ordinary length of notice and period of residence. Such a power is exercised at present, in cases of marriage by special licence, in the United Church of England and Ire'and ; it is also (much more extensively) used among the Irish Roman Catho lics ; and it is obvious that cases may frequently occur in all classes of the community, in which good reasons (though not always such as it would be desirable to state upon the face of a certificate) may exist for accelerating the time of marriage. If such a power is intrusted, not to all those who are authorised to give the ordinary certificate, but only to a superior authority, when such an autho rity is provided by the organization of the particular religious communion, and (in the absence of such superior authority) to the superintendent or dis trict registrar, and if its exercise is strictly limited to cases in which both the parties to be married are certified to be of the same religious profEssion by the officiating ministers (or by the official wit nesies, if they are Quakers or Jews) of the places of worship, or synagogues, whi.:h they usually at tend, we think it may safely, and even advanta - geously, be granted. We therefore propose that a power of this nature should be given to the Bishops of all Episcopal Churches (established or un established) organised under Bishops ; and to such officers as may be nominated for that purpose by the Presbyteries of all Presbyterian congregations organized under Presbyteries ; and, in all other cases, to the superintendent or district registrar. BANNS. Without proposing that the publication of banns should be prohibited or interfered with in the Esta? blished Churches, when desired by the parties, or in other Churches or religious denominations, when required by their particular discipline or usage, we recommend that such publication should not henceforth in any case be required by law as a condition either of the lawfulness or of the regularity of marriage. In rural parishes and districts, generally, every useful purpose which can be answered by the publication of banns in the Established Church may be equally answered by the mere fact of notice to the officiating minister ; and the evidence which we have received from England abundantly proves, that the dislike of this mode of publication tends to promote clandestinely, rather than to prevent it, by inducing many persons to resort for mar riage to places where they are unknown. The same evidence also proves that it is practically use less and inconvenient in very populous places. In Scotland, being confined by law to the Established Church, and being performed three times over on a single Sunday just before the commencement of divine service, it can be of very little, if any, use, particularly in great cities and towns ; and it is, not unreasonably, complained of by the Scottish Nonconformists, who are married by their own ministers, as being in their case vexatious as well as useless. In Ireland it is but little u,:eJ, and we are satisfied that the time has now arrived when it may be abol;shed, as a statutory requirement, throughout the United Kingdom, without any public disadvant tge. CONSENT OF PARENTS AND GUARDIANS. We think that the present law of England and Ireland, which makes it unlawful for any minister of religion or civil registrar to solemnise the mar riage of any minor, in opposition to the declared dissent of the father, if living, or of the mother or other lawful guardian (if any) when the father is dead (subject to an appeal by the minor in any case of unreasonable refusal to the courts having jurisdiction over infants and their guardians), should be extended to all marriages throughout the United Kingdom ; and that no notice of marriage should ordinarily be received from any minor, de clared or known to be such, without a consent in writing, signed by the proper parent or guardian, if such there ba. Provision, however, should be made for cases in which, through unavoidable cir cumstances, such consent cannot be obtained. LICENCES. If these recommendations are adopted the certifi cate will in all cases supersede the necessity for a licence, and we recommend that the practice of granting common licences in the United Church of England and Ireland, and registrars' licences, and the powers of licensing ministers among the Presbyterians in Ireland, should cease. REGISTRATION. The present arrangement for the registration of marriages, in each part of the United Kingdom, seem to us to require only this alteration, that the minister or officer, who is the celebrant or official witness of marriage, should in all cases be charged with the duty of recording each marriage at the time of solemnisation, in proper duplicate registers, one of which should remain in the official custody of the person for the time being filling the same office, and should be delivered up, upon each vacancy in that office, to the next successor, and the other should be tramm:tted quarterly by such minister or officer (free of postage) through the district registrar to the Registrar-General. Proper books and forms for this purpose should, we think, be supplied at the public expense, by the Registrar- General in each part of the United Kingdom, to every person authorised by law to celebrate, or to be the official witness of, marriage ; both the local and the general registers being admitted in all courts as prima facie legal evidence of marriage. The system which we thus recommend is for the most part already in force, except as to Scotch regular marriages and Irish Roman Catholic mar riages ; and even as to the latter class of marriages, although the duty of making the proper return to the registry office is imposed upon the married parties (i.e., upon the husband), and not upon the clergyman, we learn that it is now very often volun tarily discharged by the clergy. FEES, STAMPS, SAND EXPENSES. It would, in our opinion, be highly desirable that the exaction of fees and compulsory payments of every kind for the solemnisation of marriage, or for the fulfilment of any preliminary conditions of marriage prescribed by the State, should be wholly abolished ; that no stamped duty should be imposed upon any certificate, notice, or other document re quired by law for the purpose of marriage; and that postage should not be chargeable on any official documents passing through the post in compliance with the provisions of the law of mar riage. Any increase in the cost to the public of the sys tem of general registry, arising out of the require ments of an improved marriage law, such as we re commend, would, in our opinion, be slight and in considerable when compared with the public benefit arising therefrom. If, however, it is considered necessary still to charge fees for the solenMisation or for any of the other legal requisites or incidents of marriage (eitiler on account of the difficulty of replacing the deficiency which their abolition might cause in the incomes of some of the parochial clergy, or for any other reason), we think that a uniform table of such fees, upon as moderate a scale as practicable, should be settled by law ; and that such fees should not, in any case, be augmented by the imposition of stamp duties, such as those now imposed, in England, on common licences. PENALTIES. We think that it should hereafter be made mis demeanour, and not felony, for any minister of re ligion, civil officer, or other person wilfully to con travene the provisions of the marriage law ; and that it is unnecessary to fix beforehand for such offences pecuniary ponaltieS of any certain amount. All wilfully false and material statements, in all declaration required by or under the authority Of the marriage law, should make the guilty parties liable to the penalties of perjury ; and for this cause, as well as for marriage during minority, or with a minor, without the consent required by law, the proper Court shouA h tve Lower to make and enforce settlements of property, so as to prevent the guilty party from benefiting by the marriage. REPEAL OF ACTS. If these recommendations are adopte 1, Nr B further recommend that the enactments necessary to give effect to them should be embodied in a single statute ; and that all the existing statutes of the United Kingdom, and of Scotland an d Ire land, upon the subject of marriage, should be re pealLd. Care should, of course, be taken not to revive, by such repeal, any canon or other law on the subject of marriage, which has been expressly or virtually repealed by former legislation. CONCLUDING REMARKS ON THE PRINCIPLES OF TLIS FOREGOING RECOMMENDATIONS. We feel encouraged by the general spirit of much of the testimony with which we have been favoured from persons whose opinions are entitled to the greatest weight to believe that the foregoing recommendations will be found to approach more nearly than any other practicable scheme to a s°' lution of the difficulties of this very important subject. If we turn to Roman Catho'ic testimony, it Wil l be found that we give no more than a reasonable development to the principle laid down by th e English Roman Catholic prelatcs, that it le desirable " to constitute the Catholic clergy th e legal witnesses of the marriages celebrated by them ;" and to the declarations of Bishop Lea* that the State " possesses an unquestionable right to require proof of the marriages of its subjects' and to take care that they are properly registered; " and of Bishop Moriarty, that " the State has 3 right to see that the marriage is registered." We derive equal encouragement from the vieWS expressed by some of the most authoritative exP ° ' nents of Protestant opinion in Ireland. The late Bishop of Derry considered it " not only objectionable, but highly desirable, that the Minis ters of religion should as far as possible be t"?, persons empowered by the State for this purpose' adding— " As, however, it seems desirable that the liberty of parties about to marry should not be needlessly interfered with, I should be inclined to extend this privilege to all ministers, of whatever denominatie°' who may be willing to comply with the requi re ments of the State, as to time, places, &c., of p c ; formance, and likewise as to registration. The se requirements should be, in my opinion, as f ar possible identical as regards the various religioe bodies." Dr. Bryce (of the Irish United Presbyterians) also said, " I would allow a Roman Catholic clergy" man man to celebrate mixed marriages, just as I . that I should be at liberty to do the same thing' but I would insist upon his being subject to te: same rules with regard to time, place, notice, and " registration that all Protestant clergymen of all de nominations are subject to." Sir Joseph Napier, Dr. Ball, and others sP eka exactly in the same sense. In England, so far as marriages by the clergY the Established Church are concerned, the tencleel of some of the most important suggestions which have received has also been in changes %flue we recommend. The Bishop of Oxford is favot lr ; able to making all the parochial clergy, in ef fect, Surrogates ; and the committee of the Lower hou se of Convocation of the Province of Canterbury pro pose, to allow all persons who wish to avoid the p m ". lication of banns to be married upon the cer tifies ' a of their own parochial clergyman after twenty -0 0 1 , days' notice, upon terms almost identical w ith those which we have advised. In Scotland our recommendations are in har l3 l with the principles of all those who are attached to the present system of regular marriage as practised 0, in that country, and who would make the niai nte ante of that system, in its essential characters, tbe, condition of any interference with the law of irregu lar marriage. vci ong It is true that by some other witnesses es - whom , c whom we may mention the late Bishop of ' ter, the Dean of Chichester, Mr. Porter, -Lir' $ tar leas and the Registrar.
