The Cor►upt Practices Bill was t ►ken at the morning sitting yesterday. The business was take❑ up at clause forty-six, which provides that an elec ►ion shall be hell void wherein the candida'e ha: knowingly employed any ag tut who has been guilty of bribery within seven years. Mr. lisa.rcuhuLL lNGEssEN proposed that the reports of election committees should be to the same effect, and had a majority. L.)rd AMBERLEY failed in his attempt to make the bill still more stringent than it was by declaring that the candidate should not sit in Parliament for three years who had employed corrupt agents, but the Solicitor- General very truly said that this would not do, be cause they would defeat the object of the bill if they made it too stringent. The noble lord having pressed the matter to a division, the result was that he lost by sixty-seven, a result not to b 3 won dered at. It is always to be regretted when a mea sure of this kind is introduced that so many persons seek to laud it up, and put their own additions to it, instead of letting it alone, and giving it the chance of passing and doing what good it can. The discussions that took place on this bill were almost interminable, and at last the Hous3 had to report progress. There appears, however, no reason to fear that the bill will not pass, for it seems that by common consent it is settled to finish it in some shape or other. Mr. GLADSTONE agreed with Mr. DISRAELI that it was not so important to include Ireland and Scotland in the Act, because it has now taken the form of au experiment, and thus we can not say that the House has legislated for one kingdom only to the exclusion of the others. The new clauses repecting the judges gave rise to much discussion. Mr. AYRTON pro posed that fourteen days should elapse before the new judges were appointed aft !r the whole of the election petitions were presented, but this was so very unnecessary that it is not surpris ing it was negatived without a division. The clause for increasing the salaries of the three elec tion judges by five hundred a year was struck out, in consequence of the many objections raised to it, but it does not seem so very preposterous a 3 some imagine it to be, and as for its being disparaging to the judges, it was well answered that if they had extra work imposed on them, they might well expect extra pay. Mr. LoWE proposed that the bill should be limited to three years, and the end of the next Parliamentary ses session, which was agreed to. Sir W. HUT'T with drew his clause, which put into a statutory form the resolution against the interference of Peers at elec tions, Mr. DrstIAELE and Mr. GLADSTONE concur ing in admitting its withdrawal, though on different grounds. The discussion showed that now circum -4,lnc,:s had changed since this resolution had been passed. As the Peers are taxed, like the rest of the community, they had a right to vote the same. Che right hon. geetleman reminie I the House they would not get a favourable reception for their mea sure in the other House if they accepted the clause, .vhich subjected the peers to fines and imprison - neut. Time was against the discussion of tht. .iuse, for it would very likely have taken them lays to consider it, and it was very wisely given up. llr. GRIFFITH endeavoured to pass a clause, de claring that the payment of travelling expenses was bribery, but he failed to obtain the requisite support, and it was negatived. The bill has been adjourned until to-day. The state of Greenwich Hospital was considered THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY OTENIMI, JULY 18, 1868, t the evening sitting, and great dissatisfaction was expressed in many quarters at the changes that were wrought in the year 1865. The Chairman of the Admiralty committee said that they had proposed some changes which would render the benefit of the hospital more attainable. It seems that the claims of the merchant may have been passed over, which is certainly to be regretted, but it was objected a year or two ago that the vast sums expended were not proportionally given to those most deserving of them, and, perhaps, the reorganisation has been carried on in too parsimonious a spirit. It is at all times difficult to settle the affairs of so com plicated an institution, but it would be well not to pass over the merchant seamen ; and they have, besides, the claim of having contri buted largely to the hospital. Lord MAYO, in answer to a question on the Land Tenure Commis sion, declared that the improvement in the condi tion of Ireland was vtry great, and all industries are prospering. The Poor-law (Ireland) Bill made very little progress, because so much diversity of opinion prevailed, and at last only three clauses were passed ; but altogether the House got through a good deal of work during the few sittings that were held. The news which reaches us from New York by the Scotia, bearing date July 7th and Bth, is not without importance. The Presidential election is growing nearer, and although the excitement has not yet reached its full height, it is growing more definite, and the plans of each party are becoming more clearly arranged. On every side is heard the statements of rival politicians, the " platforms" of possible candidates, the arguments for and against the leading men of either side. Those who wish to put their views prominently forward write letters, in which they introduc3 the po litical questions of the day, and as these are summed up in a very brief compass we have the same topics continually discussed. The suffrage question, the reconstruction of the Southern States, the manner of paying the national debt, and the taxation of bondholders, these are the all-engross ing questions on which every man must declare his thoughts, wishes, and intentions, before he can enter the lists as candidate for the Presidency. Mean while the Conventions are hard at work, and Radi cals and Democrats, soldiers and sailors, and a good many other classes of the loyal Unionists, are busily discussing the conflicting claims of the seve ral candidates. The soldiers and sailors have se lected a new Presidential candidate for themselves in the person of General HANCOCK. They support the payment of the bonds in currency with full pro tection for nationalised American citizens abroad. The Democratic Convention of New York, the summary of whose platform we received soma days back by the Cable, put the restoration of the Southern States prominently forward in their pro gramme. They advocate their immediate re storation to the Union, and a general amnesty to all political offenders, and they include in their general recommendations the settlement of the suffrage question by the States for themselves, and the abolition of military rule. It must be admitted that the theories of the Demo crats are more in accordance with the old constitu tional doctrines of the United States than the schemes of the Radicals. The abolition of military rule in a time of peace is surely a wise and consti tutional measure, while the maintenanc3 of the old State rights is one of the best guarantees for the liberties of the peaple. The weak point of this platform is with respect to the finances, and we are sorry that th / should uphold the payment of the debt in currency. It must not be supposed that this is exclusively a ll,!mocratic scheme, since the II tilical leaders have many of them gone further. There have not been wanting advocates of total repudiation, but we are gl to find that this di,cre !ital.& doctrine 11 is found no favour among Americans generally. The credit and character of the country are worth far more, even materially, than a few millions yearly ; and however long the paym_nt of the bonds is deferred there is no reproach attaching to the State provided the interest is faithfully dis charged. The Americans, unused to debt, soon grew impatient under their burden, aud, chafing at the unaccustomed weight, sought only how they might soonest get rid of it. But !f they choose to try the costly amusements of oldor States—stand ing armies and war on a gigantic scale—they must put up with the consequences. If once the present crisis is got over, and the Southern States really reconstructed on national principles, an in- cubus will be removed from the enter• prise and induAry of tho country, trade will revive, and the vast and fertile territories so long lying waste and ;desolate will once more prove a:source of wealth and strength to the Union. The Convention at New York arraigned the Re publican party " for corruption and oppression," and thanked Mr. J OHNSON for his patriotic efforts in resisting the aggressions of Congress ; further it complimented Mr. CHASE for hisimpartiality on the Impeachment Trial. Mr. CHASE, we find has been publishing his opinions on the suffrage question, which he recommends that each state should settle for itself, which is one way of evading the obstacle which his advocacy of the negro places in the way of his nomination by the Democrats. This will probably be the final solu- don of the negro difficulty, as without doubt i would be the wisest. Some prominent New York Democrats have been ,rying to ascertain whether President JonNsos would accept a nomination to the Presidency. Mr, JOHNSON replied that he would accept a nomination only if accompanied by the unequivocal support of his efforts to dJend the Constitution against Extreme Sea ------ Saturday, I „ F. 04 F. 1 July 13, 13.

The Minister - id crisis still continues. Senor Anslemo Braamcamp, Councillor of State, is said to have been sent for by the King, and is expected to be able to form a new Ministry. Radical encroachments. There would be some advantages in Mr. JOHNSON'S re-election. The people know him well, and can rely on his fidelity ,o them and to the Constitution, despite his fail ngs. The present position of the States would be very different had a less resolute and constitutional ruler been at the head of affairs during the pas ;wo years. The danger is now wellnigh over, The passions of the war have died away, and the Radicals have shown themselves in their true colours. They have left the country impoverished, the finances embarrassed, the South disaffected, the negroes unmanageable. But there was a time when their doctrines were popuhr, and the danger of their aggressive policy not yet evident. Mr. JOHNSON withstood them then, though almost every voice was raised against hitn, and for this offence the Radical leaders will never forgive him. The last news is that THADDEUS STEVENS has pre- sentcd to the Holm of Representatives five new articles of impeachment, having, of course, waited his opportunity until a few new Senators had iciu forced the Radical ranks in the Upper House. On Monday Mr. Harvey Lewis will ask the First Commissioner of Works what is the cause of the delay in the completion of the works in the enclosure in the Regent's Park, and whether the same are likely to be completed, and whether . it is intended to cover the bo!tom of the lake with cement.

The debate on the Budget yesterday relapsed to that Darren subject, Algeria. Except that the colony was an .ixtremely convenient means for swelling the Budget and ;raining soldiers at the same time, and that France would not have lost a great deal if Algeria had been left to its unfortunate natives, the discussion did not produce much. The Opposition speakers endea' voured to shew that all the calamities which have befallen the country are the direct result of the military Pegime. It would certainly not be easy to prove that mili tary rule has done much good. Many public works, inthe shape of railways, canals, and ports, have been:constructed, but the money would have been better employed in reducing the annual deficit. At the same time it would be difficult to estimate at present the exact effect of the civil government demanded by the Left. The country has been subjected lo an unheard-of series of calamities. In 1864 a formidable insurrection, dictated by religious influence, required all the resources of the Government to quell it. In 1866 an invasion of locusts left the colony a desert. In 1867 the winter was unusually severe, and great part of the flocks in one district perished. Lastly came the famine, which has resulted—in cannibalism. No Government can fairly be criticised under such circuna- stances. All that the Opposition cduld prove was that Algeria was never likely to do much credit to France. The Progres de l'Algerie reports a trial for cannibalism. An Arab was charged with having dug up the body of a child, and roasted and eaten it. The poor wretch pleaded guilty, adding that it was such bad fare that he left it for a jackal to finish. The counsel for the prisoner read a letter from the Governor-General to the Archbishop of Algiers, in which it was maintained that man-eating wa► the result of an affection of the brain. It stated that in Ireland (the point disputed by Cardinal Cullen), as well us in Algeria, cannibals have invariably proved to have been under the influence of insanity. The prisoner was acquitted. The marked manner in which Baron Offenburg, the Prussian representative at Bucharest, avoided meeting with Prince Napoleon has given rise to some comments here. Baron Offenburg was Cr only consular representa tive who did not visit tho prince. Ho was likewise absent from the official reception which Prince Charles gave in honour of his illustrious guest. On his part, Prince Napo leon declined to receive M. Rosetti, the chief of the Reds, who is on intimate terms with Mazzini. M. Rosetti did all ho could to obtain an interview, but in vain. The Duke de Gramont has sent Baron Beust another protest against the taxation of Austrian bonds. The note does not this time confine itself to bonds taken up in France, but applies to all foreign holders. The titles of newspapers are every day—for they are thoroughly ephemeral—becoming more extravagant. The Lanterne alone has lighted a host of minor lights. The Mandelle, the Lampion, the Congre, the Quinquet are all paling their ineffectual fires at present, and a few more would complete the whole possible circle of illumination. The Luxemburg Washerwoman and a few notable English papers are nowhere in the race. Eccentricity has led to extravagance, and extravagance has led to absurdity. The walls of Paris are just now covered with a placard in huge letters, announcing a new paper to appear once a week. The most imaginative man—lL Dumas himself—could never guess the title, or explain the object of this print. Its name is to be the Bug in Butter. Here, however, people love singularity in everything, from newspapers to suicide, No other country could ' produce such an array of methods by which those weary of existence contrive to rid themselves of it. Suffocation is the favourite mode, but after charcoal there seems to be no preference. If a Frenchman shoots himself or takes poison, he surrounds the simple action with dramatic accompaniments in the shape of amorous notes, dying speeches and confessions, and mysterious warnings. He is, however, fertile in expedients altogether new. Not long ago a man knocked a hole in the bottom of a barge, got thoroughly drunk, and went with his craft to the bottom of the Seine. Another, in the South, blew himself up, together with a stable, by means of gunpowder. We may even look for the application of nitro-glycerine. Its effect would be so novel and astounding that it cannot long remain unemployed. The redeeming feature of French fel° de se is that the principals very often repent before it is too late. This, however, was not the case with a girl who yesterday swallowed a solution of phosphorus which she Lad obtained from the ends of some chemical matches. She was discovered in the most horrible agony, and medical assistance was procured and the effect of the poison arrested, but the girl's life is still despaired of, THE WEATHEIZ TABLE.-THIS DAY.

LONGFELLOW IN TIIE TEMPLE. — Accompanied by Mr. Charles Kent, the poet (whose stirring lines of wel come have been commonly assigned to Professor Kingsley and Mr. Charles Knight), Mr. Longfellow spent a couple of hours on Friday last week in visiting the Temple Gardens and the Temple Church. Mr. Longfellow has been four times in England ; but this visit was the first he had ever paid to the spot in London about which, with one exception, perhaps, the memories of all the men of English blood most delight to linger. Turning out of Fleet-street, the American poet found himself suddenly in an ancient and familiar place, standing on the very spot where Plantagenet and Somerset bade their followers pluck the red rose and the white rose—near the old mulberry tree, still in green leaf, under NI hich Bluff Harry courted Anne Boleyn—close by the river terrace of &sex House, on which Shakspeare and Southampton loved to walk, and on which still blooms the purple vine (a cutting from which has been sent to Shakspere's House, at Stratford-on-Avon)—beneath the old sycamore tree, now protected by an iron fence, under which Goldsmith and Johnson used to sit and chat—and over the great stone outside the Temple porch on which you read "Here lies Oliver Goldsmith." The church, the libraries, the halls, the fountains, and the gardens—all were visited in turn by the American poet.—Athenxum. The excessive heat seems to have its effect on the mem bers of the House of Lords. It was only a few days ago that we announced the death of the second Baron Dun- fermline, and this morning we have to chronicle the de ' cease of another peer, the second Earl of Bantry, who expired suddenly on Thursday, whilst visiting at Exmouth House, Hampshire. The late. Right Hon. Richard White, Earl of Bantry, Viscount Berehaven, Viscount and Baron Bantry of Bantry, County Cork, in the peerage of Ireland, and a representative peer Li Ireland, was the eldest son of EMl:lr], first Earl. The late earl's father was created Baron Bantry in consideration of the zeal and loyalty he shewee. towards the British Government during the troubles in Ireland, especially in repelling the French fleet in Bantry Bay in 1797 ; and was presented with a gold medal by the county of Cork. He was afterwards advanced to the viscountcy in ISOO, and the earldom in 1816. The late peer, who professed Conservative principles, was born in November 1800, and was therefore in the 68th year of his age. Ho succeeded to the title in 1821, and married, fifteen years later, the third daughter of the Marquis of Thomond. There is no issue by the marriage ; conse quently the family honours and estates devolve upon his brother, the Rom William Henry White-Hedges, of Ms room Cadith Comity (Jo& and lieutenant-coloneL coppOp9.of_tl4o West Volk Militia Atstillan HUNGARY.

The Prince replied that he would not obey the summons. FRANCE. PARIS, July 18. The Corps Legislatif discussed, yesterday, the Budget of Public Worship and Education. A discussion ensued upon an amendment tending to substitute the plural for the singular in the deno mination Chaire des langues et litterature Slaves (Pro fessorship of the Slave language and literature). M. Carnot pointed out the political importance of the question, by maintaining the denomination Chaire (Professorship), whilst confusing the dif ferent Slave languages, the Legislative Body, he maintained, would confuse nationalities, and warrant the ambition of Russia by admitting a plurality of Slave nations, each of whom would feel morally stronger to resist the system of Russian aggression. Panslavism affirms unity of language to further belief in unity of race, which would lead to unity of territory. Europe ought to oppose the coalition of these three great elements—the Slave Germanic, and Latin race. The Corps Legislatif determined to take the amendment into consideration.

HOUSE OF LORDS, JULY IG. Their lordships sat this afternoon as a Com mittee for Privileges, L'rd Redesiale in the chair. Among the noble lords present were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Chelmsford, Lord Westbury, and Lord Colonsay. THE KINLOSS PEERAGE. This was the claim of Richard Plantagenet Duke of Buckingham and Chandos, to the title and dig nity of Lord Kinloss in the peerage of Scotland. Mr. Fleming, Q.C., and Mr. Burdon appeared for the claimant ; the Lord-Advocate on behalf of the Crown ; and Mr. Bruce for the guardians of the infant Lord Elgin. The peerage was stated on behalf of the claimant to have been created in 1601 by King James VI. in the person of Edward Bruce. The claimant claimed through Lady Mary Bruce, the third child of Charles Bruce, the sixth Lord of Kinloss and fourth of Elgin. When the case was called on, Mr. Brace applied, on behalf cf the guardians of the infant Earl of Elgin, that the further hearicg of the claim should be postponed until next session, on the ground that time was regaire.l to produce further evidence to establish the claim of Lord Elgin to the title of Lord Bruce of Kinloss under a patent dated 1604. The Lord Chancellor said it was evident that two different titles were claimed under two diffe rent patents, and therefore moved that the coun sel for the claimant be permitted to sum up the evidence. Mr. Fleming then proceeded to sum up the evi lence on behalf of the plaintiff. The evidence which had been laid before their lordships proved that E ward Bruce was created a peer and lord of the Par liament of Scotland by the title of Lord Kinloss, to hold to him and his heirs and assigns, Feb. 2, 1601. Edward Lord Kinloss, who was a Lord of Session in Scotland, accompanied King James to England on his Majesty's accession to the English throne, and his attendance as a Lord of Session was in con sequence excused. Ile was naturalised in England by an Act of Parliament passed in the second of James 1., and obtained a grant of the dignity of Lord Bruce of Kinloss, to hold to him and the heirs male of his body, when failing to his heirs male general, dated 1604. In 1608 a new charter of the lands of Kinloss was granted to him and to the heirs male of his body, when failing to his nearest heirs and assigns whomsoever. He died in January, 1610, leaving two sons—Edward, who succeeded his father, and d:ei without issue in 1613, and Thomas, who succeeded his brother, and sat by proxy in the Parliament of Scotland in 1621 and 1633. He was created Earl of Elgin and Lord Bruce of Kinloss in the latter year, and was created Lord Bruce of Whorleton in 1641. He was succeeded by his only son, Robert Bruce, who sat as Lord Bruce of Whorleton in the English Parliament. He was created Earl of Aylesbury in the Peerage of England in 1665, and had eight sons, if whom Edward, the eldest, died unmarried in the 17th year of his age. Robert, Charles, Henry, Ber nard, and James died in infancy, and without issue. rhomas, the only surviving son and heir apparent of his father, succeeded his father in 1685, and was I succeeded by his only surviving son Charles, whose only son, Robert, died without issue. In the lifetime of his grandfather, in 1738. In 1746 Charles Earl of Aylesbury and Elgin was created Lord Bruce of Tottenham, with a limitation in default of issue male of his own body to his nephew Thomas Bruce Brudenell, a younger son of his sister Elizabeth, Countess of Cardigan, and the heirs male of his body. Thomas Bruce Brudenell succeeded his uncle as Lord Bruce of Tottenham. Charles, how ever, left surviving him his grandson, the son of his eldest daughter Mary, and Elizabeth and Mary (his daughter by a second marriage) his co-heirs, and on his death without issue male the issue male of Edward, the first Lord of Kinloss became extinct, and the dignity of Earl of Elgin, which had been granted to his sou Thomas, the third Lord KillloB3, and his heirs male devolved on Charles Earl of Kincardine, then heir male of the body of Sir George Bruce, the brotber of Edward, the first Lord Kinloss. Lady Elizabeth Bruce, the second daughter and co-heir of Charles Earl of Aylesbury and Elgin, married the Hon. Benjamin Bathurst, and died without issue in 1771. Lady Mary Bruce, his third daughter, married Charles Duke of Richmond and Lennox, and died without issue in 1796. Mary, his eldest daughter, married Henry Marquis of Carnarvon, then the son 1 and heir apparent o f J ames D u k e o f Ch an l os , an d lied in 1738, leaving an only son, James Lord Wilton, who succeeded his father as Duke of Chan - los in 1771. Ile married twice, and had no issue by his first wife; but by his second wife he had an only daughter, Anna, who married, in 1796, Richard Grenville Nugent Temple, who succeeded his father as Marquis of Buckingham in 1813, and who was created Duke of Buckingham and Chandos in 1822, and she died leaving an only son, Richard Planta genet, the grandfather of the claimant. At the conclusion of the learned counsel's ad dress, the further hearing was adjourned. BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH, EUSTON-ROAD, LONDoN.—Health secured by Morison's Vegetable Universal Medicines. Read the works of James Morison, the Ilygelst. No Vaccination.—CAdverti6eniontj THE WIMBLEDON MEETS O, TILE CAMP, FRIDAY, Grantude prevails in the camp, and the hearts of visitors and volunteers alike rejoice in the change of the weather. The sun is covered by a thick curtain of clouds, and the thermometer is down to 77 deg. This alteration is espe cially agreeable to the marksmen at the several ranges, who, firing as they have hitherto done with the scorching rays of the sun pouring directly down upon the targets have experienced almost unprecedented ob stacles in obtaining accuracy of aim. Only those who practice shooting frequently can understand what a diffi cult thing it is to fire in the unbroken glare which has hitherto prevailed in the atmosphere during the meeting. One provincial corps, accustomed to rifle practice only in the subdued light of the evening, has confessed its utter inability to do anything, and has retired in despair. At present no accident has occurred to any volunteer, which, as nearly a week of the meeting is past, is some thing to say. Two members of corps from Lancashire are, however, suffering from sunstroke. One has been obliged to leave for London, the other lies in the camp hospital. The Council have just issued a notice stating their inten tion to disqualify for the remainder of the meeting any person found guilty of misconduct at any of the firing points. The programme of the day included the shooting at the 600 yards range for the Queen's Prize, a most important part of the competition, as only the first sixty who make anything of a score at the three distances, of which this is the greatest, are competent to fire in the second stage for the £250 given by her Majesty. Comparing the scores registered this year at the 200 yards range with those of last year, it appears that, while at the present meeting there have been made six scores of 19 points, twenty-three of 18, and eighty-three of 17, there were in 1867 eight scores of 19, nineteen of 18, and sixty-one of 17 points. Sergeant Wortham, of the London Rifle Brigade, went to the 600 yards' range this morning with 35 points. A score of 52 will be a tie with the silver medal of last year. At noon, Drum-Major Hutchinson, Ist Gloucestershire (the same corps which had the honour of obtaining the gold medal last year), had succeeded in securing 51 points. The first stage of the " Windmill " Prize was cora menced at half-past eleven, and continued through the day. The aggregate value of the prize is £350, divided into one sum of £l5, one of £lO, six of £5, eight of £4, sixteen of £3, and twenty of £2 at each of the two dis tances of 200 and 500 yards. The rifles and ammunition used are the same as in the first stage of the Queen's, five shots being allowed at each distance. At three targets the keenest competition was kept up for a number of extra prizes, ranging from a Snider rifle to a lady's devonport. The distances were 500, 600, and 800 yards respectively. At the 200 yards range the rifle used was the same as in the Queen's Prize, first stage. At the other two ranges any rifle was allowed. The carbine shooting, for £5O, given by the National Rifle Asso ciation, and subdivided into one prize of £lO, two prizes of £5, and ten of £3, was commenced to-day, and was open to any bona fide efficient artillery volunteers, the regulation carbine used by the rank and file of volunteer artillery corps being used. The firing with Enfield rifles for the Association Cup, with breech-loaders, at special targets, for the first stage Duke of Cambridge and Eley Prizes, for the Alexandra Prize, at GOO yards range, and for the " Martin's" Prize was kept up with vigour, as was also the shooting at the Carton targets, the pool targets, and the running deer. With the breech-loaders some extraordinary scores have been made during the day. With a Westley Richards rifle 30 rounds were fired in the three minutes allowed, and 71 points were scored. With a henry rifle 25 rounds were fired, and OS points were made. With the Soper rifle 35 shots were fired, and the target was hit each time. With a Kerr rifle 28 rounds were fired and 57 points scored. The higher score obtained at the 500- yards' range was fired by Sergeant Gostage, Ist Berk shire, who, with the Soper rifle, made 8 bull's eyes, 15 centres, 14 outers, and 94 points. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE, SounnvAnK.--An opposition to the two sitting members, Mr. Locke (L.) and Mr. Layard (L.), is spoken of. It is said that Mr. Scovell, the wharfinger, will be selected to oppose them. FINSBURY.—Messrs. Torrens (L.) and Lusk (L.) will come forward again. MARYLFI3ONE.—At a meeting of the Marylebone Elec toral Reform Association, the following resolution was carried :—" That this meeting believes that the present representation of the borough is not calculated to increase the reputation of metropolitan constituencies, or to en hance the value of representative institutions." It will be in the recollection of our readers that Messrs. Lewis and Chambers have repeatedly voted against Mr. Gladstone. MANCHESTER. The Manchester Courier understands that a requisition to Mr. Mitchell Henry to allow himself to be put in nomination as a candidate for this city at the approaching election is in course of preparation. Mr. Ernest Jones has been adopted by the executive committee of the Liberal party as the third candidate. Mr. Jones has been chosen as the special representative of the working-class interests. ANGLESEY.-At a large county meeting it was decided to bring forward Mr. Richard Davis (L.) late of Menai Bridge, in the room of Sir R. Bulkelcy (L.), who does not seek re-election. Lord Clarence Paget's name was men tioned, but the meeting was almost unanimous in support ing the claims of Mr. Davis. STOKE-UPON-TRENT.-Mr. Campbell (C.) has declined to stand for this borough. There is now little doubt that Colonel Roden will come forward on the Liberal side in conjunction with Mr. Melly, one of the present members. There are rumours of the intended retirement of ltfi Grenfell (L.), the other member. HADDINGTONSHIRE.—Lord William Hay (L.) has defi nitely resolved to offer himself for Haddingtonshire, in opposition to Lord Elcho (C.) NORTH-EAST LANCASHIRE.—Mr. N. Kay-Shuttleworth, (L.), son of Sir J. Kay-Shuttleworth, has been chosen to stand, in conjunction with Mr. Fenton (L.) EDINBURGH.— The Reform League committee have resolved to support Messrs. M'Laren and Miller, and to bold an open•air meeting in their behalf, while the " People's "Union " committee support Lord Stanley. LINCOLNSHIRE.—The Eastern Morning News says that the three divisions of the county will most likely be managed by compromises. Mr. Rowland Winn, of Appleby Hall, will represent the Conservative interest and Sir M. J. Cholmeley the Liberal in the northern division; Mr. Welby (C.) and Colonel Packe (L.) will do as much for the southern. In Mid-Lincolnshire Colonel Amcotts (L.) and Mr. H. Chaplin (C.), it is expected, will stand. EAST RETFORD.— The sitting members, it is expected, will again be returned without opposition at the ensuing election. The present representatives are Viscount G a lway (C.) and Mr. Foljambe (L.) DEWSBURY.—Mr. Cossham (L.) has placed himself unre servedly in the hands of his committee. Mr. Ernest Jones (L.) has declared that he will not stand unless he receives a requisition signed by one-half of the constituency. GREENOCK.—The friends of the Permissive Bill at Greenock have obtained the support for their proposed measure of both the candidates for the representation of the burgh. SHEFFIELD. —Reports are vrry rife of movements to in troduce the Hon. James F. Wortley again to the electors as a candidate. Mr. Mundella's friends having discovered that they have given offence to Mr. Hadfield by asso ciating his name with that of Mr. Mundella, propose to bring out a second candidate—Mr. Leader, a local printer, to contest the borough against Messrs. Hadfield and Roebuck. The latest reports state that the health of the En.press Charlotte makes no improvement, and her reason becomes more and more deranged. She has formed the project of going to Miramar, and the utmost diffi culty is experienced in dissuading her. It is feared that she will escape from the Chateau of Lackon. All the avenues are strictly guarded. The number of sentinels has been doubled. A similar accident to that lately reported on the Yorkshire moors—where a fire broke out among the heather —has taken place in Wales, where, it is said, the heather for several miles has been consumed. The lightning, on Wed nesday night, set fire to a mill at Dewsbury, causing con siderable damage, and the signal-box on tho railway there was struck. The signalman received a severe shock, but yesterday he was sufficiently recovered to resume his duties. Lord Lyttelton writes to the Church Times to deny the statement attributed to him, that the Bishop of London had expressed approval of the ornate services at St. Peter's, Gravel-lane. The bishop had said only that Mr. Lowder, the incumbent, had made no changes since the church was consecrated, and that while the questions of Ritual were sub judice, he (the bishop) thought the missionary and charitable works of St. Peter's Mission deserving of support. STATUES FOR THE THAMES EMBANKMENT.-It is said that the Thames Embankment is regarded as an excellent site for statues and drinking fountains. Noble's statue of Sir James Outram is to be located, we are in. formed, on the embankment near the Houses of Parlia ment. A statue of Sir James Brooke will, when sculptured, be placed near it ; and numerous statues now standing in inappropriate or obscure places will, it is ex pected, find final resting-places on the Thames Embank. ment—thus becoming conspicuous national ornaments to thef Ertel ;Ivor oplAnacle, , • .--* d i fy 111 IC.O ' I rat II ER MAJESTY.
