As time passes on it seems that the speech of the King of PRUSSIA has not been so satisfactory as it first promised to be. Germany is reported to be pleased with it, it is true, but the effect produced in France is by no means the same. It would have been all right if his MAJESTY had contented himself with the emphatic sentences which appeared in the first telegram on the subject, but he indulged in a few desultory remarks" that spoiled the effect of what had gone before. These after thoughts are often very unfortunate, and give rise to great dissatisfaction, where none ne.Al be felt if the dic tates of prudence are attended to. Whether rightly or not the public mind at Paris puts its owe interpretation on the meaning of the Royal words. and so inimical wad this to general prosperity that the Gavernmeat (I..!eaul it advisable to say so.nething to allay the apprehension occasioned, and to remove the doubts only too plainly visible. It cannot be sail that their mode of doing this was very successful, and indeed their interpretation of thJ matter wa3 far stranger and more naysterioth , than the original. The King remarked that "there were circumstances when a prince could not shrink from the responsibility of war ;" and this the French luminaries please to look upon as meanine, that the war of 1866 came under the category. This is extraordinary, to say the least of it, because if King WaLiAlt had meant to refer to the past, he would, in all probability, have given some inti mation that such was his intention, and not have given rise to so much confusion. He must know pretty well by this time what is the prevailing sen timent in Paris, and as his words had all been weighed out before they were uttered at all, they must have been meant to show the French that peace was now the " cry." There was no backwardness on the part of Prussia to adopt more hostile measures. It must be confessed that, so far as lookers on can judge, the public of Paris have the best of the argument, for in these days of shift ing scenes and complicated events, it is not the fashion of princes and rulers to waste much time, and give much attention to bygone matters, that belong to history rather than to the things of the pre sent. Besides, it is not quite etiquette for the French authority to interpret the speech of the Prussian Monarch. if it were necessary for any adventiti ous aid to complete what should have been put clearly in the first instance, it was the province of the Berlin journals to do so, and not those of the nation manifestly alluded to in the Royal in timation. At any rate, all the Paris papers, or nearly all, are full of the matter, and if the in tention of the Prussian Monarch and his advisers was to have put things straight for the autumn it has not been fulfilled, in consequence of the awkward mode adopted to carry it out. We may be no nearer for all the stir that has been created ; but a good deal must be done before the initiated can put faith in assertions that are contradicted the minute after they are uttered, and which are at the best so ambiguous that no two judges can come to the same conclusion about them. The annual report of the Inspector of Reforma tory and Industrial Schools is an interesting and valuable document. It is only within the lifetime of the present generation that the reformatory movement has attained any degree of vitality or importance. For some time after the beginning of this century the old Draconian system was in force, which held the life of a man worth no more than a few pounds, or even shillings. When a milder and more Christian code was introduced wise men and kindly philanthropists began to direct their atten- tion more and more to the condition of the criminal classes. It became evident that there must be a constant source of supply which kept up the army of vice and crime. It was impossible that all the thousands of thieves and rogues of various degrees could be furnished from the stray black sheep of the decent and law-keeping ranks of society. A cleser examination into the ways and habits of what are termed the dangerous classes soon elicited the painful fact that it is part of their busi siness to train children up to crime. Their own children, as a matter of course, and in addition all the waifs and strays, the deserted, neglected, or orphan children whom they can get hold of in this busy and indifferent London, are pressed into the service, and as with the increase of the population the number of recruits is con stantly augmenting, it is evident that the busi ness is not likely to fail for want of hands. The problem how to deal with this large class of juvenile criminals before the reformatory system was thought of was one of serious perplexity. On the one hand it was manifestly unjust and unrea sonable to pass over deliberate and wilful offences committed by children of tender years, and on the other it was hard to send mere children to prison, and thus, if they were not absolutely hardened render them the associates of the worst criminals. The refor matory system is a happy tempering of justice with mercy ; it punishes crime, while it affords the poor, ill-taught children the chance of a better life. They arc taught the rudiments of educ 1- tion, and any one who has taken the trouble to examine the statistics of our assizes knows how large is the proportion of uneducated criminals. Besides, this they are taught some definite trade, so that henceforward they shall not be driven to felony for self-support. The labour of conducting such an institution is no doubt very great, and the re sults are often disheartening. Still, on the whole, they are quite as favourable as could reasonably be expected. Thus at the Red Lodge Reformatory at Bristol, of fifty-five discharged inmates thirty three are said to be doing well, seven are doubtful, ten are unknown, and five have been re-con victed. A proportion of three-fifths reclaimed is perhaps as much as we could hope for when we take into consideration the serious drawbacks, the here ditary influences, and other weights in the scale. This Reformatory, too, we must remember, is an institution for girls, who are always more difficult to deal with than boys. The Akbar Reformatory School-ship, at Liverpool, gives some very encou raging returns. The number of boys on board is 200, and of 164 discharged during the past year 85 are known to be doing well, 4 are dead, 7 are doubtful, 13 have been re-convicted, and 55 are at sea, and have not lately been heard from. It is fair, therefore, to suppose that a large proportion of these 55 are doing well, since they are following an honest calling. The Clarence Reformatory School-ship at Liverpool, devoted to Roman Catholic boys, also sends in a favourable account, though the number of inmates discharged during the year (only eight) is too small to allow of definite calculations. The satisfactory results of this ship-training, in comparison to some of the land schools, deserve attention. There are several reasons why the ship affords the trainers a better chance. The discipline, says the report, is necessarily stricter, and they are of course more isolated than on shore. A sailor's life, too, always possesses especial fascinations for boys, and so offers a pow erful incentive for good, while the freer and more active life on board ship removes many temptations incident to the more tedious and monotonous life of a school. Prison managers know what is meant by the state of feeling which pro duces a " breaking out," and we may depend upon it the young prisoners suffer from the same patience of their monotonous existence. If the love of change and excitement so natural in the young could be brought a little more into the service, we may depend upon it the temptations to insubordi nation and refractory conduct would be materially lessened. It is the sedentary nature of their occu pations which enhances the difficulty of dealing with the girls. Active physical exertion, which shall tire out the restless spirit and occupy the wayward temper, is an invaluable aid in reforming the young criminal, and the success of the school ships indicates a wide tield for improvement. The City Arab has been accustomed to a life of open air, among all the bustle of London streets. A life in the schoolroom, we may depend upon it, is hateful to him, even without any penitential agencies. It is right and necessary that they should be taught, but the more the instruction can be relieved by physical exercise, the greater, we may depend upon it, will be the success. We must not allow oursives to be dis couraged by the failures which necessarily occur. Even if only one-tenth were reclaimed, the labour would not be thrown away. We cannot tell what one professional may cost the State, what misery he may occasion, or of how much future vice and crime, and wretchedness, and degradation he may be the author. The figures we have quoted are THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER9IB, 1868. encouraging, and we may reasonably hope that the expQrience of future years may show even more promising returns. Mr. CHILDERS is determined not to give in, but to fight on, whether he gets the best or the worst of it. Last night he addressed the electors of Ponte fract, and went over the old ground of accusing the Government with extravagant expenditure. Ac cording to what appears in the portion of his speech as yet received he is repeating what he said before with additions. His great argument is, that the late Government reduced with one hand] if they increased with the other, but he fails to show that the result of all this was very good for the country. A nation like England cannot afford to have no tions of " cheese-paring economy" put before the vital interests of the community, and it is a fact not to be disputed that when the RUSSELL GLADSTONE Administration went out it left many important matters in a state of great inefficiency. The Conservatives had a difficult task to perform to rectify the errors of their predecessors, and to remedy those evils which had bean brought about by ignorance or negligence. So great was the de ficiency in the Naval Department that Sir JOHN PAKINGTON, even at the advanced stage of the ses sion at which the new Ministers came in, had to make mention of it in the House ; and in the army things were also in a state of great neglect. Those who speak at election meetings have an ad vantage over those who discuss public questions in the House, that they cannot be answered at once, and therefore the meeting separates, and they have the last word, and nothing spoils the effect of their communications. It is, however, a fact which the most devoted partisan cannot dispute, that most of the expenses at which the new school of politi cians are railing at were sceasioned by the direct action of the former Government, and those that were not they are responsible for from having left the defences of the country in so imperfect a state. Mr. CHILDERS seems very proud of the manner in which his friends reduced the army—they gradually decreased the number by sixteen thousand, and the marine in the same proportion ; but this is an achievement whose wisdom is by no means clear, and, indeed, in the existing circumstances of Europe it may be called most injudicious. It is true that the arch-apostle of peace presided at the councils of the late Adminis tration in spirit if not in person, but the people of England have always believed it to be the duty of their rulers to be prepared for emergencies. We cannot be a first-rate Power and keep our resources on the level of second-rate States, and those who expect to do so will come to grief themselves, and bring discredit on the work they perform so in efficiently. We shall have another opportunity of referring to this topic when the rest of Mr. CHIL DERS' speech comes to hand, and it is a subject that will well bear investigation and inquiry. LATEST INTELL MENGE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) 'CORRESPONDENCE FROM PAM O:i (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.), PARIS, THURSDAY, September ` 17, The speech of the King of Prussia at Kid is naturally the topic of the day here, but it would be a mere waste of space to repeat the expressions of opinion. The few words spoken by King William may readily be construed either as a defiance or as a pardonable expression of pride, and . the journals here accordingly interpret them according to their wishes. There is no deviation from the old tone. The independent papers all say that the King, whilst flourishing the sword, prognosticates peace, and the Constieutionnel remarks that the King said no more of his army and navy than any other monarch might have done. The Independence Beige gives perhaps the best summary of the whole matter. The words by which the King of Prussia declared his confidence in the maintenance of peace, ex pressed his real meaning. But, as is his custom, the bellicose monarch could not refrain from adding that the best security for peace was to he found in his brave army and navy. It is the addition of this flourish, which the Independence Beige thinks has nothing to do with the King's real sentiments, that has impregnated the whole speech with the smell of powder. The real significance of the two test elections, the Jura and the Var, may now be fairly estimated. The influence brought to bear in each case sufficiently proves that neither the return of M. Gravy for the Jura, nor the defeat of M. Dufaure in the Var, can be deemed very remarkable. M. Gravy had formerly administered the Jura department in a manner which had preserved for him a lively remem brance in the minds of the people. He had likewise rela tions in the district, and carried on a certain amount of business there. In short, it was only necessary to mention his name to the population. M. Dufaure, on the other hand, had appeared in the Var but twice in a public capacity. He is a man of high political character, known and respected by all who have any connection with political affairs ; but this is not enough for a country election. To be successful in the rural districts of France the candidate must be personally known. To ensure success the local committees ought to have frequently presented him to the electors, upon whom his simple manners, his good sense, and accomplished speaking must have produced an impres sion. But M. Dufaure accepted the candidature only at the end of August and did not arrive in the Var until the fifth of September. Then hut ten days intervened before the period of inactivity which is prescribed by law to precede the voting. There was evidently no opportunity to counteract the desperate efforts of the Minister of the Interior. It is astonishing that M. Dufaure, under such circumstances, should have made such an excellent second. It is not at all surprising that he did not come in first. It is probable that if the local independents take their measures in time, they may carry this department at the next election. The statement that General Dix is about to retire from the American Embassy here is contradicted by some of the papers. The Marseilles strike has ended in a compromise. The masters have granted an increase of wages, and the work men have withdrawn their other demands, which were calculated, in the opinion of the masters, to weaken their authority and infringe the right of property. The strike lasted ten days. A correspondent 9f the Independance Beige says he has re ceived trustworthy information that in consequence of the agitation in several provinces of the Ottoman Empire, orders have been sent to the French Ambassador at Con stantinople and to the commander of the French fleet in the Levant, to afford every assistance in upholding the authority of the Sultan and in guaranteeing the integrity of his empire. The same writer is responsible for the statement that the Chevalier Nigra, deeply discouraged by the relations between Italy and France, has finally demanded a change of residence. In all probability he will be appointed Italian Minister at London. A great velocipede race is to take place on Sunday at the Hippodrome.

English wheat sold steadily, at the extreme of last Mon day's rates. Foreign wheat also fully supported its value. Flour moved off steadily at unaltered prices. Malt was quite as dear, with a quiet sale. Barley, beans, and peas the turn against the buyer. Russian oats 6d dearer, other imports firm. Linseed more in demand and tending upwards.

When the Electric Telegraphs Bill which was passed last session comes into operation, and the telegraph wires in the United Kingdom are acquired by the Government, the system by which telegra phic news has hitherto been supplied, and is at pre sent supplied, to the press, to newsrooms, to clubs, and other places, will of necessity come to an end. The Post-office will transmit news, but manifestly could not properly collect news. The function of supplying news will therefore iu the future devolve on the press itself—a much more natural and de sirable arrangement, and one from which both the public and the press will derive very important advantages. In timely preparation for the change, the pro prietors of the Irish, the Scatch, and the English provincial newspapers have formed an association for the purpose of collecting and supplying every kind of intelligence that comes under the head of " news," and have made arrangements with the Post-office for the telegraphic transmission. A com pany has been formed on the limited liability prin ciple, already supported by a great majority of the proprietors of the principal daily and weekly journals, and the articles of the " Press Associa tion" have been drawn out, and, after very careful consideration at successive conferences of members of the press, have now been made ready for re gistration. The " Press Association" will not be carried on with a view to profits. The mutual principle has been adopted. Neither interest nor dividend will be received by the shareholders, and the object of the association will be to furnish the fullest extent of news of the best possible quality at the lowest possible cost. Newspapers, clubs, hotels, and private persons requiring news of any special class—commercial, sporting, or otherwise—will be supplied at fixed rates, duly proportionate to the cost. In fact the Press Association: proposes to un dertake the news supply of the United Kingdom at large both for the press and the public, and will have an organisation so extensive and complete as to enable it satisfactorily to meet every requirement. It is confidently expected that the resources which the Press Association will have at command, through its special connections, will enable it to effect a very marked improvement in the news system of the country. Instead of being , limited to the great centres of population, the ex tended ramifications of the Government system of wires will enable the company to furnish news to any town or to any newspaper where the latest in telligence is required. A most influential meeting of newspaper pro prietors has just been held in Manchester—the largest and most important representation of the press that has ever assembled in that city—and has concluded the preliminary arrangements. Tempo rary offices have been opened at 112, Strand, Lon don, and a board of management has been ap pointed, consisting of the following gentlemen : Mr. J. E. Taylor, Manchester Guardian; Dr. Cameron, N.B. Daily Mail, Glasgow; Mr. W. Saunders, " Central Press," London ; Sir John Gray, M.P., Freeman's Journal, Dublin ; Mr. Jaf fray, Daily Post, Birmingham ; Mr. Frederick Clif ford, Sheffield Telegraph; Mr. F. D. Finlay, Northern Whig, Belfast ; Mr. George Harper, Hud dersfield Chronicle ; Mr. Joseph Glover, Leamington Courier; Mr. C. W. Naylor, Cambridge Chronicle. Before the telegraph lines pass into the hands of ,he Postmaster-General, all the preparations of the ' Press Association" will have been completed, and the Association will be ready to commence opera tions at a day's notice. It is confidently anticipated that great advantages will result from the new or ganisation—that the public will be supplied with better arranged and earlier news, and that the Press will have, as it ought to have, proper con trol over its sources of information, and will be relieved from connection with a system conducted for profit, and of the efficiency of which a great deal of complaint has been made, not without some show of reason. The association is open to the proprietors of every newspaper in the king dom requiring to be supplied with news. The secretaries of news-rooms, chambers of commerce, clubs, &c., will be furnished with all needful infor mation on application at the temporary offices of the association. A STR.iNGE BEDROOM VISITOR.—An amusing occurrence took place in Bridlesmith-gate, Not- tingham, on Wednesday morning. Three bullocks were being driven along the street to market when one of them entered into the shop of Mr Watts, stayinaker, walked up the stairs into a bedroom, and actually jumped with its fore feet on to the bed. The beast, on regaining tho floor, sent its horns through a looking glass, and then smashed all the crockery in the room. A neighbour, hearing of the occurrence, proceeded upstairs for the purpose of clearing the room of the unexpected visitor, but he was quickly pitched to the bottom of the stairs, fortunately without sustaining any injury. The driver and two po licemen next went up, and suceeded in getting the animal down stairs and into the street without further damage being done. METEOROLOGICAL REPORTS.

Barometrical pressures are now low in the south and south-west: the diminution which has been general since yesterday, has been greatest on our S. and E. coasts. In the S.W. of Ireland a small in crease has occurred since last evening, but readings in that district are less by four-tenths of an inch than that at Nairn, whilst at Brest pressure is less by half an inch. Temperature has risen on our N. and E. coasts. A strong wind from the south-eastward prevailed yester day on our S. and W. coasts. Winds continue generally from the eastward over these islands, and are fresh on the Irish coast, but moderate in the Channel. On the W. coast of France a south gale— force 9—is now blowing. Heavy rain has fallen in Ireland and on ihe Channel coast, and rain is still falling at Portsmouth and Brest. The weather is overcast or cloudy. The Austrian Government is acting with the greatest vigour against the opposition of the provincial Diets. The Governor of Galicia, who has just visited the capital, has carried back to Lemberg , the positive instructions of the Government to dissolve the Diet if it passes any resolution hostile to the new constitution. The Tyrol Diet is in similar jeopardy. It appears disposed to avoid putting the new scholastic law into execution. By this law the clergy were deprived of the absolute control of Austrian educa tion ; and it is the clerical p ty t' at prompts the resist• ance. Mr. George Peabody inten Is to purchase an estate in the neighbourhood of re t'i, and will reside part of next year in the Hungaliaa capital. On his estate he will build a large steam mill, in which only grain for export will be cc nve 'e I int) flour. According to the correspondent of the Post, the ce!ebra' American citizen felt so attracted by the famous Hunga rian patriot, Francis Deak, that he entered into corre• spondence with him, and did not take the resolution to become a landed proprietor of Hungary until he had asked Desk's advice on the subject. Eastern affairs, says the Berlin correspondent of the Times, are exciting much attention in Prussia. This writer alleges that, according to direct intelligence from Bucharest, there is no doubt that the Bulgarian bands are chilly organised, not, indeed, by the French Government, but by agents of the French war party. Nor is there any particular care taken to conceal the truth, for a Bucharest paper which is the Moniteur of the rebellion is in the habit of representing France and Austria as the angels of oppressed nationalities. The Russian organs dare not oppose a movement which they have so long aided, but, as R issia is without an ally for offensive purposes, these journals are careful not to add fuel to the flames. The same writer adds that the insurrection consists of a few insignificant bands skulking among the hills. This esti- mate is probably true, but the statement that the " cause " is supported by French agency would be none the worse for a little confirmation. The "Provisional Bulgarian Government" has pub lished a memoir setting forth that it is only the intolerable tyranny of the Turkish Government which has given rise to the present movement. It is not the object of the Bulgarian party to expel the Turks from Constantinople ; all that is desired is, that Bulgaria should have an inde• pendent national Government similar to that existing in Servia and Roumania. As a proof of this assertion, the memoir refers to the rebellion in Crete, of which the Bulgarians disdained to take advantage, in order not to embarrass the Turks. Major Palliser has sbewn himself the gentleman we believed him to be. He has written to the Morning Post as follows : "My attention having been drawn to an inaccuracy of which I appear to have been guilty in my speech at Devonport, by attributing to Mr. Gladstone the words ' apostate Senate and recreant State,' as applied to those who might encompass the disestablishment and disendowment of the Irish Church, after all the oaths which had been sword and all the pledges which had been given to the contrary, I eould feel obliged if you will allow me to express my great regret for having quoted, as Mr. Gladstone's, words which bad been uttered by aom - THE_ Kin QF PRUSSIA'S SPEEOH AT .KIEL. The following is the full text of the remarks of the King of Prussia in reply to the address of the rector of Lude mann University. The address was strongly in favour of peace :—" As respects your wishes on that head, no person can share in them more thoroughly than I ; because for a sovereign the necessity is painful, and forms a responsibility towards God of finding himself compelled to pronounce the fatal word war.' And yet circumstances do sometimes arise in which a prince cannot and ought not to withdraw himself from that obligation. You have seen with your own eyes here, that the necessity of hostilities may sometimes force itself on a monarch as well as a nation. If between us there exists a bond of con fidence and friendly sentiments, we owe this to war. For the rest, I do not see throughout Europe anything threatening to disturb peace, and I say so openly in order to tranquillise you. But that which may assure you still more is the appearance here of the representatives of my army and navy, that strength of the country which has proved that it does not fear to accept and carry to a successful termination a struggle when forced on it." EXTAORDINARY COURTING ADVENTURE NEAR NOITINGIIAM. At the Nottingham Shire Hall, George Bradley was charged with entering the dwelling-house of Mr. Cooper, with intent to commit a felony. The prosecutor is a farmer living at Burton Joyce, and has in his employ as a domestic servant a young woman named Harriet Parr, with whom the prisoner was deeply in love. Dur ing the night of Tuesday week the inmates of the house were greatly alarmed at hearing a lumbering noise in the chimney. Two of them got up, and often instituting a vigilant search discovered the prisoner, who had come down the chimney, lying with his face on the gar ret floor. He was without his coat, and was partly covered with soot. The constable of the parish was called to appre hend him, and in answer to the charge he said that he had got on the top of the house (which is above three storeys high) for the purpose of throwing "his Polly" some money down the chimney, when he tumbled down himself. Pri soner, before the bench, denied entering the house to com mit a felony; be said he only wanted to see "his Polly," who had borne him a child. The Bench said they should have to make further inquiries, and remanded the prisoner for a week. STRUGGLE BETWEEN A MURDERER AND TEE POLICE.-TWO LADIES SHOT. On the morning of the 2nd instant, M. Charles Antoine, proprietor, aged 31, residing at Plain fainz, in the Vosges, fired at his wife, the bullet pene trating the right arm. He then Bred at his wife's cousin, Paule Claude, aged 17, the ball passing through her body. On information reaching the police•station, a body of gendarmes repaired to the spot, and after send ing the wounded woman to a doctor's house they proceeded to arrest the murderer; They found him armed to the teeth and barricaded. When he saw the gendarmes approaching he said : "Do not approach ; my double-barrelled gun is loaded, and also my double-barrelled pistol. I warn you that I will kill four before I yield." Seeing that he was determined not to surrender, Bizot gave orders to the police to load. Viry and Bourreau, followed by a police commissioner, entered the house whilst Bizot and Cliny watched the only passage by which Antoine could escape. Antoine fired twice through the flooring of the first story, but the bullets remained imbedded in the wood. The gendarmes replied by two shots. The police commissioner then ordered some straw to be lighted, which forced Antoine to come to the window, from which he fired two shots at Bizot and Cliny. He was fired at in return, and was hit on the left side and in the arm. But he managed to escape down a cellar where it was dangerous to pursue him. A fresh fire was kindled near the mouth of the cellar, but fearing that he would be suffocated, Viry and the police. commissioner boldly descended into the cellar and seized the murderer after a sharp struggle, although he was half dead from the fumes. The struggle between Antoine and the police continued for some hours. The young lady died of her wound at half-past seven in the evening. No cause is assigned for the commission of these crimes. A yacht near Sligo has been run into by a steamer and split in two. Eight persons were immersed in the water, but were rescued by the crew of a herring-boat. Two men returning from Hampton races drove so recklessly that they ran against a heavy cart and were overturned. They were taken to the hospital in a dying condition. Queen Mohely has returned to her own country after having travelled many thousands of leagues in the hope of obtaining an audience of the Emperor of the French, which she was obliged to give up because the Emperor de lined to receive her. A singular and distressing accident has oc curred near Newcastle. A grocer residing at Washington was at dinner with his family, when a bottle of diamond oil was upset and ignited. The house also took fire, and one of the children was suffocated, and all the other persons in the house were injured. At the Barnsley court-house, nine miners were charged with assaulting William Lewis, a non-unionist miner. The offence consisted in throwing rubbish in the complainant's face, and in threatening to duck him in a pond. The accused had previously asked complainant whether he intended to jay to the union. The bench dis charged two, committed three for 21 days, one for 14, and a boy for 48 hours on bread and water. Members of Parliament sometimes find themselves in peculiar, if not anomalous, positions. The Marquis of Hartington and Colonel Wilson Patten, who are just enter ing upon a stiff electioneering campaign in North Lanca shire, on opposite sides, met on Tuesday at the festive board of the Blackpool and Fylde District Agricultural As sociation, when they "improved the occasion" by bantering each other with such downright good humour that the ex ample must have been contagious. At the re-opening of Princes Risborough parish church, on Tuesday last, there was a great gathering of clergymen and others, when the Bishop of Oxford preached. The preacher in his discourse referred to the "groat strong hulking men who came to church and were too lazy to kneel." His experience of that diocese extended to a quarter of a century, and its prevailing sin was to treat the Deity as being patronised by them when they came to prayer, and especially so when they came to the Holy Communion. His lordship then denounced the old four-cornered pews as har bours for laziness. A letter from Rome mentions a savage incident that occurred as the Papal troops were on their way from the camp to Rome. A Dutch Zouave entered a vineyard to gather some grapes, and received a musket ball, fired close to him, and inflicting a very dangerous wound. At the re port his comrades spread themselves over the vineyard, and, having fallen in with two persons, left them for dead on the spot, in spite of their protestations of innocence. The vine yard was set on fire in several places and completely con sumed. Lord Lisle has written to the Cork Examiner on the evils of absenteeism. Session after session com plaints are made that the House of Commons is not legislating for Ireland, but the " real cause of the misgovernment of the country is lost sight of." Absenteeism is, in Lord Lisle's opinion, " the primary cause of the present unsatisfactory state of things." He begs the absentee landlords of Ireland to " come forward, and do their duty to their God, to their country, and to themselves." A private telegram has been received by the friends of the Bishop of Montreal announcing his death. The Most Reverend the Metropolitan of the Canadian Church was born in 1803. Was Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford; successively rector of Trowbridge, Rector of Croydon, Cam bridgeshire, and Minister of Curzon Chapel, in Mayfair. In the year 1850 he was consecrated to the See of Montreal, and became the first Metropolitan on the Canadian Church being formed into a province in 1860. Dr. Fulford was a prelate of rare gifts and temper, and of great administrative power. FATAL COLLISION IN THE STREET.-Mr. Payno held an inquest in Guy's Hospital on the body of James Mahony, aged 45. The deceased and a man named Milan were driving a van loaded with manure in Blue Anchor. yard, Bermondsey, when, in attempting to clear a truck in the road, the deceased pulled his horse too far across the road just as another vehicle came along, and they came into collision. The deceased and his friend were thrown to the ground, and the former received such fearful injuries as to cause his death. There being no blame on either side, a verdict of accidental death was returned. DEATH OF MR. GARD, FORMERLY M. P. FOR EXETER.—Mr. Richard Sommers Gard, Conservative M.P. for Exeter from 1857 to 1865, died on Wednesday, at Monkton, near Honiton, aged 73. Mr. Gard for many years lived the life of a private gentleman, occupying a charming estate, Rougemont, Exeter, and dispensing gift., freely to needy persons and benevolent institutions. Mr. Gard was first elected for Exeter at the general electon of 1857, when he was returned unopposed, as also in 1859 and in 1865 he retired, being succeeded by Lord Courtenay after a close contest.

The speech of the Marquis of Bute at the work ing men's dinner yesterday has created no small sensation in Cardiff. His lordship said : " He should presume, by the kindness which had peen so generally shown him, to call them by the aame cf friends. He asked them to believe him when he told them that when he came into this great town, when he saw the number of the fami lies that were nourished by its prosperity, when he considered what the hopes were which they had formed of him, and when he thought of the great regard which, for his father's sake, they had hon oured him—(cheers)—when he thought of the power which he might have for doing good or evil to many of them, when his self-knowledge showed him his few years of life, and the duties, inexperience, weakness, and his many faults, and his loneliness, he could tell them that the weight of the responsibility upon him seemed sometimes almost crushing ; but he was determined to the very utmost of his ability to do his duty tow. ard3 this place through the whole of his life—(cheers)- -- and he trusted that the working men would help him. (A Voice—" We will.") The way in which they had welcomed him into this place and invited him there was, he assured them, a great support and encouragement to him in the beginning of life. What he felt he could not tell any one how deeply he felt it. (Cheers.) He took this meeting as 3 pledge, as a true token to him, that the trades people and working men of Cardiff would give him the right hand of fellowship in the work which they had to do for this place. They must work for the increase of Cardiff, not alone for wealth and power, and for success in the enterprise which had been begun—they must work for the increase of know ledge and purity. (Cheers.) They must endeavour, as far as in them lay, to ameliorate as far as they could the misery, crime, and sin which surrounded them. (Cheers). They must endeavour so to work that when that night came in which no man can work that it might be possible for them to say that they had done what they could. At his time of life hopes were strong, and he believed that whil e that feeling existed between them and him whic h he desired should exist, and which he took this meet ing also as a token that they desired should exis t ' he did not believe they would work in vain. There fore it was with very deep feelings that he thanke d them for inviting him there that day, and he hope"' he saw in this meeting the first of many sirn i t it/r e meetings —(cheers)—by which he hoped to g ain ° himself their friendship, and by and by their re s p ect ; (Cheers.) He saw in this a pledge from them tilt t they would work together in the determination ha. had come to—by God's grace to do his duty to th u best of his ability for this place." At the county dinner to the marquis last evenings there was a slight alarm of fire. The gas caugh t _ portion of the decorations, and in an inst ant one end of the roof seemed to be ablaze. The comPael, were just seated at table, and there was a natura l: nervousness which might have terminated in a r us to the doors but for the self-command of som e gentlemen near the entrance. The woodwork GI the roof, however, only caught fire very slightli e ; t in less than five minutes what looked like bf elements of a fatal accident became a subject CL mere conversation and of congratulation on nerve displayed by the ladies who, according t : recent custom, occupied seats at the tables. fa marquis in reply to the toast of his health, said*. e ti N o one was more conscious than himself of t: pleasure he felt at the gracious way in whichwl 1, t had welcomed him into the society of the co and the very warm manner in which they had dru , l3 h , h f 9 the toast of his health.

(Cheers ) _ its accepted the position which they offered hil;ith the society of this county with pride and nacre gratitude.
