Signs indicating the violence of the approaching election battle have not been wanting in various parts of the country, but to the borough of Lambeth must be awarded the honour of commencing the fight in real earnest. As much hr.s been said upon the lead ing political questions of the day as is pcasible with out painful repetition ; and the Lambeth electors assembled at Peckham would have no further dis cussion, but unfurled the banners of war. The different placards of the many candidates were hoisted, end round them rallied their several supporters. Men fought and held each other with the tenacity of bulldogs ; they rolled over each other, smashed the chairs, and tore the placards to fragments. First the banner of Mr. PArthur was victorious ;. the next minute it was trodden under foot. Then Morgan Howard's bill was defiantly raised, and the battle became general. It had until this time been waged only between the respectable tradesmen of the borough, but now the roughs joined in, and increased the excitement considerably. The meeting had been called in favour of Mr.- Littler, but that gentleman's insignificance merged from the comparative to the superlative, and so, seeing that all was lost but honour, he retreated into an anteroom, surrounded by his body-guard. For ten minutes more the battle raged, until some one turned out the gas and brought the engagement to an end. The contest was then without light," as it had previously been without " sweetness." INTIMIDATION. "An Elector of the Borough of Hackney" states that acme of the assessed tax collectors are using their influence in canvassing the voters of the borough in the most open manner in favour of Mr. Butler, one of the Liberal candidates, who is sup posed to be the nominee of the parochial authorities. He says their conduct amounts almost to intimida tion. We should be inclined to think that atax-collector canvassing for votes is a decided act of intimida tion, and if these officials are not amenable to the law as it stands, they ought to answer for their con duct to the proper authorities, who have power to control their action. For some reason, which will be tolerably well known to the needy householder, and which is likely to have considerable weight in such a borough as Hackney, the tax-collector - has no small influence. His influence does not arise from love, or the master of the house would not be so often " not at home " when the great man calls but the influence of fear is very powerful, and might consti tute an important element in an election. Mr. H. F. Beaumont, the present Liberal M.P. for the West Riding of Yorkshire, and one of the Liberal candidates for the southern division of that Riding, is possessed of estates in the neighbourhood of Huddersfield, over the management of which Mr. Thomas Dunderdale presides as agent. The tenants are supposed- generally to entertain Conservative opinions. One of them received a letter as follows : " I think it may be as well if you do not take an activepart against your own landlord at the forthcoming election." It is signed "T. Dunderclale." The Globe and the Daily News bandy compliments about this case, the former taunting the Liberals with it, the other paper remarking that it is always ready to denounce intimi dation on both sides, and that the Tory papers are specially vicious about a Liberal faux pas. It will be in the interests of both parties to denounce.bribery and intimidation on which ever side they arise, and discard the to quoque. LANDLORDISM AND TERRORISM. The John _Bull is decidedly the most respectable representative of Conservatism in journalism. evertheless, sif to shew to what lengths partisan ship will go, it published in its last number a letter from a correspondent,. who says he is, and no doubt he speaks truly, "A. Conservative Land lord," and who proposes that the Conservative party throughout the country should resort to exdusiv4 rlPaHng. He argues that, Els Conservative Churchmen hold some fifteen-twentieths of the property of England, they have three-fourths of the expenditure of the country in their hands to use as they may please. Therefore, "let them have no deal ings whatsoever with anyone but sound Conservative Churchmen, and they will soon find the consciences of the various sectaries and other Liberals to Le of so pliable a character that they will unhesitatingly accede to the wishes of their customers, and to a very great extent let Dissent and Liberalism go to the dogs." The objection is antici pated that persons so voting would b 3 den minced by the Liberal press. " Let them howl," says the Conservative lanllord, " until their throats are sore. They thus shew, beyond dispute, the excel lency of the system I am advocating. If I had a thousand farms to let, or places for a thousand work men, I would not have anything to do with any Liberal or liberty-of-conscience Dissenter of any sect whatever. They would cover the land with cockatrice's eggs, which would produce discontent, disrespect, disobedience, resistance, and every evil work, according as each man's liberty of conscience might desire or suggest." If this letter had appeared in a Liberal o r even a neutral paper we should have said that it was a fraud; that a Liberal hr.d dis honestly attempted to palm off as the production of a Conservative a letter intended to damage the Con servative cause. But it is published in a Uonseryativ a journal, and as it is dated " September " and did not appear until the last day of October, we presume that the editor held it over as a sort of desperate remedy when he found the Conservative cause hopelessly low. The strange thing is, that even a party . man should fail to see that such a letter as this is absolutely ruinous to the party it is intended to servos MR. HOUSMAN ON 41 CAVES." It is rather late now to revert again to the old story of the famous Cave of Adullam which caused the fall of the Russell Government in 1806. But some remarks of Mr. Horsman on this subject are amusing, and they show the position of that hon. gentleman as regards the politics of the future. Mr. Horsman has come forward for the Falkirk Burghs. Some electors who attended his meeting on Monday had not altogether forgotten 1866. They therefore questioned him. " Caves," he replied, were not recent institutions, but they had occurred periodically in the House of Commons. There had not been a prominent man in the House in our day who had not been in a cave. Ile had himself been in one cave, but he did not expect to be in another. He did not approve caves in the abstract. They were justifiable only when the society was very select, and when their motives were very patriotic, and that was the description he would give of Lord Grosvenor's cave in 1866. The reason why, above all others, he would support a vote of no confidence in the Government was, that they had abandoned every principle,- thrown aside every pledge, and trampled on all the traditions of their party! , sin w. STIRLING ;MAXWELL AND TIIE PEERAGE. Several times the ci gossips" of the clubs have raised the story that Sir William Stirling-Maxwell was about to.be raised to the p e erage. In fact, so prolific has Mr. Disraeli been in the creation of peers, that a story about the' creation of nine is as likely to be believed as the story of an enormous gooseberry. But while the latter is comparatively harmless, the former is being used for election purposes. The opponents of Sir William in Perthshire have been declaring that it is of no importance for him to receive a seat in the House of Commons, seeing that he will soon occupy one in the Lords. Amongst others, Lord Kinnaird has made use of this statement. To him 44 William Stirling-Max well " writes thus :—" Your understanding can rest upon nothing except rumours, which, whenever they have been circulated, have always received a form al denial. I am amused, and some of your Liberal friends will perhaps be amazed as well as amused, at your estimate of the relative impor . tance of the representation of Perthshire' and the prospect of a seat in the House of Lords' But when I assure you that I have no such prospect, your friendly feelings towards me may perhaps lessen your regret in hearing of the success with which my supporters everywhere promise to crown my efforts to retain my seat in the House of Commons." TUE SON OF TUE EARL OF ERAFTEEDURY ON DISESTABLISHMENT. The Earl of Shaftesbury took a most peculiar position both on the Reform and the Irish Church questions. While he patronised Mr. Beaks he attended the Conservative demonstration at St. James's Hall. While he was afraid of disestablish ment he withheld his vote. His son, the Hon. Evelyn Ashley, however, has quite made up his mind. At a recent meeting at Weymouth he said the disesta blishment and the disendowment of the Irish Church were the first step towards the pacification of Ireland, and without these all oth er measures would brouseht un in the fitrigite4t , of worn as a ,sided that way, and his i n n the for b a eli free t ly t gr he oun on d ly ed im re h ligio religion which would accomrhY' fL (43 on ili n ese things which increasing civilisation demanded of them. But, fully grounded as he was in that belief, he maintained that the interests of Protestantism demanded the abolition of the Irish Church. The Irish Church had done nothing in Ireland to increase Protestantism, and he believed if it were disestablished and disendowed a great work would have been accomplished." We commend these utterances to some of the Low Church clergy who are so frightened at the disestablishment of the Irish Church. SIR ROUNDIML PALMEOI OXFORD COMMITTEE. The second hat of Sir Roundell Palmer's committee has just been published, and is certainly a most bril liant list. Among those graduates who have more recently signified their intention of supporting the ex - Attorney-Gencral are Mr. H. G. Adair, M.P., Mr. Butler-Johnstone, M.P., the Hon. and Rev. P. IL C. Pyy4g, Mr. Chichester Fortescue, M.P., and Mr. J:!sper More, M.P. It is a strange fact that Mr. Gladstone's name is not on the committee, although his brother-in-law and his nephew will vote for Sir Roundell. The committee state that they have received promises of support from members or Convocation who intend to vote for Mr. Hardy as well as for Sir Roundell Palmer. It hrs therefore been provided that in the voting papers containing Sir Roundell's name sufficient space shall be left for the insertion of the name of Mr. Hardy. MR. DELLEIV. The London Bevkw is " informed upon reliable authority that the clergyman known by the name of the Rev. J. Montague Bellew, whose readings and other appearances before the public have given him. some notoriety, is about to be received into the Church of Rome." It will be remembered that our London correspondent referred to this event in his letter of the week before last. We may add that during the last few days the placards announcing readings by this gentleman are noticeable for the conspicuous absence of the word " Reverend." Of course Mr. Bellew does not consider his orders valid. WORKING MEN'S CANDIDATES. The Conservative papers are just now greatly exercised about the working men's candidates. They are quite effusive in their sympathy for these gentle men, declaring that they have been grossly mal treated, and that the Liberals are no real friends of theirs. The truth is, the " Constitutional " jour nals are a good deal disappointed because the Liberal party are making up their differences, and the superfluous candidates are retiring rather than endanger the Liberal cause. Mr. Odger's example at Chelsea has been followed by Mr. Merri man at Nottingham, and he urges the electors at all events to return Mr. Bernal Osborne, and to keep out a Tory. There are still three Liberal candidates in the field—Mr. Osborne, Mr. Seely (son of the mem ber for Lincoln), and Mr. Clayden. Mr. Marten is the Conservative candidate. 14 ti 'ZCTION." The Record has many notable qualities, but the most notable is unction. Our highly religious and • most uncharitable contemporary publishes an account from an eye-witness of the service at St. James's Chapel, Brighton, last Sunday. The correspondent witnessed the service, and then the far more satisfac tory spectacle of an English clergyman obliged to run for his life before a hooting, howling mob, belonging to that nation which demands liberty of conscience for every man. The correspondent complains that his " Sabbath" rest had been sadly disturbed by—Mr. Purchas ! The same journal publishes another private letter ; that is to say, a letter written ostensibly for a friend, really for the newspapers. The subject of it is the late Duchess of Sutherland :—" My poor, dear, and invaluable friend the Duchess of Sutherland, after much suffering, has gone to her rest ! She loved magnificence and hey day—perhaps too much. But remember how, at all times and on all occasions, when good was to be done, virtue rewarded, sorrow abated, or innocence pro tected and wrongs to be redressed, she threw open her palace, gave all her personal energy, and defied a cavilling world, in the assertion of mercy and Christian love. For forty-seven years she has been to me the most constant, true, gentle, and affection ate friend." We don't know what being too fond of heyday means. No doubt it is something very dreadful ; yet surely it was not such an unpardonable offence that the offender should be punished by being praised in the Record. But the late duchess is not alone in this misfortune. The Bishop of Lincoln and the Archbishop of Dublin are both recommended for the archbishopric by the highly unctuous prin#. I3RIGUTON RITUALISM. A curious feature of the proceedings at .St. James's Chapel, Brighton, on Sunday last, has just been brought to light. A number of large red-lettered placards were posted on and about the doors and high overhead, on the architrave, containing_tla,-,- . words " Free Church of England." Whether Mr. Purchas meant by this to proclaim himself and his chapel independent of all bishops and regulations whatever was a subject of some inquiry, while some thought it was meant that, being a Church 6f Eng land, adra;ssion ought to be free, and not by ti c k e t, During the service a surprise was in store for a con gregation on the look-out for novelty and excitement, Ladders were raised, and men were employed in washing off the placards. This last extraordinary innovation on the Ritual induced people to thinli that the announcements had been placed there for a hoax. An explanation will be awaited with some interest. THE PRONE PROSECUTION. The Bishop of London's commissioners will hear the charges against the Rev. W. J. E.. Bennett, vicar of Frome, at London House, at eleven o'clock on Thursday. The Record gives a general invitation to the public to be present, as, according to the Church Discipline Act, it is expressly directed that " all pre liminary proceedings shall be public." If, however, the accused party shall make special application t the commissioners shall, after hearing the parties, " direct that the same, or any part thereof, be private." This exception is intended to apply to cases of scandalous immorality, and as nothing of the kind is charged on Mr. Bennett, it is not to be supposed either that he ivill condescend to make any such application, or that if he made it the commissioners would listen to an application so entirely opposed to the spirit and to the terms of the Act. The Record appears very anxious that the public shall have the benefit of the proceedings, but the capacities of London House must be rather limited for a public trial. EPSOM. Mr. Edward Studd has had a narrow escape from being held up to the execration of mankind as a monster who sought to deprive the people of their great national sport. He now writes to the Post to explain his course of action in the affair of the race course on Epsom Downs, and to complain of the discourtesy with which he has beep treated. When Mr. Studd purchased the property, Mr. Dorling (the representative of the Epsom Grand Stand Com mittee), instead of communicating with Mr. Studd or his solicitors, set about surveying and measuringa new course, which was eventually abandoned as unsuitable. He then applied to Mr. Studd. It afterwards transpired to Mr. Studd's annoyance that the committee claimed to have a lease upon the land till August 3, 1869, though no such document was alluded to in his title. The copy of the document, however, was produced, said to be signed by Mr. Carew on the 3rd day of August, 1867, granting Messrs. Boning and Knowles a lease for two years of the portion of the course in dispute; and at the foot of this document was a receipt for £3OO for the first year's rent. So far back as 1860, Mr. Studd states that a Mr. Greenwood had been acting on behalf of the trustees of the Carew estate, and that since that time Mr. Carew had had no power over the property. Mr. Studd was very angry, but had no wish to divert the course of the Derby; so the matter is now settled, a rent of £l,OOO a year being paid, besides a bonus of £2,500, half of which ho votes to the Epsom Summer Meeting. There is no doubt that a large section of the community looks upon the Derby with more reverence than the Constitution, and would sacrifice Magna Charta, Bill of Bights, civil and religious liberty—not to mention Mr. Disraeli and the Irish Church—rather than that this " great insti tation " should go. THE TEMPERATURE OF TIIE PAST MONTII. October has been an eventful month, from a meteorological point of view, There have been im portant deviations in the temperature ; earthquakes have visited Ireland and England, and meteors were frequently observed. Some of these were very notable ones. Mr. Allnatt, in his monthly letter to the Times on this subject, calls attention to the various phenomena. On the 20th, he points out, the morning temperature registered 28 deg. Both then and on the 19th hoarfrost covered the ground. On the other hand, the mean temperature of the 6th was nearly 58 degrees. The meteors have caused a great deal of comment. On the night of the 21st no fewer than seventeen were observed by Mr. Lucas, of the Radcliffe Observatory, Oxford. One exhibited remarkable peculiarities. At starting it equalled a star of the first magnitude, and had a bright white nucleus, which changed in its course to green. On the 7th,. too, a magnificent meteor appeared, about ten minutes before midnight. "I was unable,"writes Mr.Allnatt, "from my position of observation at this moment, to see the nucleus, and in consequence the direction of its path, but the intensity of the pale blue light it produced, entirely eclipsing that of the moon, was absolutely startling. It exactly resembled a vivid and prolonged flash of sheet lightning. The meteor is supposed to have fallen somewhere in France." The frosts destroyed the tender plants and turned the leaves of the trees, w- F. THOMAS AND CO.S PATENT SEWING MACHINES. —The celebrated No. 2 Ma chine, unequalled for general work, £lO.
