The office of Recording Secretary of the Ame rican Social Science Association, made vacant by the retire ment of Mr. F. B. Sanborn, has been filled by the choice of Mr. Henry Villard, of Boston, who is to receive a salary and devote his whole time to the duties of the place, which, up to this time, have been performed without com pensation. An office of the association will now be opened in Boston, and Mr. Villard will take charge of it. As soon as circumstances permit, a branch office will be opened in New York, and the long deferred publication of the papers of the association will soon be made. A general meeting of the association is to be held on the third Wednesday of January, at some place yet to be determined. Mr. Villard, the new secretary, is a German by birth, but has long lived in America, and is well known to the press, having been one of the most active war correspondents. He has boon connected with the New York and Chicago Tribunes, tile Cincinnati Commercial, and the Boston Advertiser, but two years ago retired from active service, and soon after married the only daughter of William Lloyd Garrison, of whose household he has since been a member. He was a successful journalist, and is believed to have high qualifi cations for his new office, which is likely to be an im portant one.

' At , i , ,'•" - ..z.'i,'...;‘;,',.,•; MISCELLANEOUS N A A ,41 IA - - --...........--- THE RUST/NG@ AT CAICEIRMSGRX a S During the nomination for Cambridgeahire the other day some interesting personalities passed between Lord Royston (C.) and Mr. Young (L.) The noble lord has a happy knack of putting a crowd into a noisy and excited state by his audacity. On the present occasion, amidst great uproar, he said that the reason Mr. Young first offered himself as a candidate was because Mr. Adeane, the former Liberal member,refusedto make him a magistrate. Mr. Young had been refused by noless than three lord-lieutenants. Some one on the hustings shouted out that it was " a lie," and when Mr. Young was appealed to, he mildly observed that he - would not say it *as a lie, but it was " untrue." Lord Royston mentioned Mr. Adeane, Lord Leicester, and the Duke of Bedford as the three, and Mr. Young again denied it. Lord Royston was substantially right, and Mr. Young literally correct ; but the latter afterwards con fessed that he first came forward because Mr. Adeane refused to make him a magistrate. Neither the Duke of Bedford nor Mr. Adeane were lord lieutenants, and it was in the capacity of Orem Roto!ornin that the former offended Mr. Young. Mr. Adeane is now on his committee, and has, ostensibly, at any rate, forgiven the offence which is so unpardonable in the eyes of his conscientious bra' her-in-law, the Comptroller of the Household. ' MR. LAB OUCIIERE. " A Disgusted Liberal " writes to the Standard to say that he has received a polling card containing three questions, the most - important of which is "For whom do you vote ?" Answer, " Labouchere." This Liberal intends now to plump for Lord Enfield, or split his vote with Lord Hamilton. He considers it a disreputable " dodge " on the part of Mr. Labouchere, after he and Lord Enfield had agreed to work together. Rather let us suppose that Mr. Labouchere is not responsible for this breach of faith, and is absolutely ignorant of it. ANOTHER FALSEHOOD. Lord Southampton having heard that Lord Frede rick Fitzroy erred him_ou the_ hustings as driving his bents to thh:toll Ile a flock of sheep, writes to him to contradict the unwarrantable asser tion. Several persons who rent Lord Southampton's land voted for Lord Frederick at the last election. Lord Southampton remarks that great licence of tongue is permitted upon the hustings, but he cannot permit false statements to be made. We hope that as soon as the elections are over " gentlemen ' will remember it used to be characteristic of their order to speak the truth. It is a' pity they ever for got it. LAMBETH GROUNDS. Mr. Arthur Arnold has had a correspondence with the Bishop of London upon the subject of the grounds of Lambeth Palace. The Bishop's secretary promises to give the matter his full consideration, and reminds him that his predecessor in the see of Canterbury used to allow the use of his grounds for the cricket clubs of Lambeth. Mr. Arnold replies that he contem plates more than this. He says: " Nothing but the free possession of a portion of the land by the public can benefit the most numerous class, whose sanitary con dition, my official experience justifies me in asserting, would be greatly improved by the enjoyment of such a recreation ground. I have applied to the Eccle siastical Commissioners on the subject, and am by them informed that the concession can only be made by your Grace." DODDINGTON. We pointed out the other day the amazing con tempt for fact exhibited by a contemporary in dealing with the " richest living in England." Its columns now contain two letters upon the same subject. The united living of Boddington- cum - March- cum- Benwick is now divided into seven separate rectories and ten separate incumbencies, the richest of which is 22,000 a year. Three new churches and a chapel-. of-ease will shortly be built at March. Doddington, GERMANY. The negotiations relative to a postal treaty betsveen England and Prussia have been concluded. The cs.rriags of prepaid letters either way is fixed at threepence. A. final and definite arrangement between the two countries will shortly be entered into. At Munich it is said that Bavaria will not recognise Austria's claims, under the Treaty of Prague, upon the immoveable property of the South German fortresses. The commission and the Prussian Chamber of Deputies dealt very shortly with the two representatives from North Schleswig who refused for the second time to take the Constitutional oath. It decided that the oath was to be again offered to the refractory deputies, and if they again refused, the loss of their seats was to follow. They 'have refused. ItoT32if AN lA. The Yorth German Gazette has an article of some imtun tance on the state of affairs in the Danubian Principalities. It says that Roumania, being a protected State, and bordering on the Danube, can preserve the guarantee of its existence only by a strictly neutral and pacific policy. In this respect its position is much the same as that of Belgium. Any attempt at aggrandisement must be attended with serious danger. This article is supposed to have an official origin, and however little its somewhat con. temptuous comparison may please the Belgians, it is satis factory to find that the Prussian Government thus dis claims any idea of abetting Russia's Eastern policy, and thatshe will not support a movement the success of which would imply the weakening of Austria. There cannot be the least doubt that Roumania is a volcano of intrigue which is always burning, if it does not break out into actual eruption. The new Austrian Red Book, just published, contains numerous despatches, proving the wholesale importation into this troublesome district of arms and munitions of war from all Darts of Enrono. 2ILEEDOIII OF MEETING. Mr. ' James Pinion, of unsavoury notoriety, has chosen to champion the cause of Ireland, and to hold a meeting at the " Reformers' Tree" in llyde Park. There he commemorated the execution of the Manchester martyrs" by a foul tirade against the Government and the aristocracy, and, like the dissatisfied young men immor talised by Douglas Jerrold, " damned everything." His speech was, of course, a confession of downright treason, though from such a man perfectly harmless. The mischief of the matter consisted in the assem bling of the scum of the metropolis, and the drain upon the strength of the police. One hundred and twenty constables patrolled Clerkenwell-green, where the mob first assembled, and large bodies of the force were massed at different parts of the metro polis, in readiness for any emergency. Of course, the general safety of the street s , never too well looked after, suffered considerably. It is intolerable that such a man should have the power of creating such a . oigantic nuisance. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. Of a ll the friends of the press upon the legal bench, none is greater than the Lord Chief Justice of Eng land. He is anxious to give more scope and liberty to the journalist. Wherever the press seems to have the worst of the argument on account of some formality which has really become obsolete, the Lord Chief Justice takes care to decide in favour of more modern usage. Of all the legal formalties which have fallen into desue tude, none is more apparent than the fiction which supposes that there are no strangers in the Houses of Parliament, and that the outside world does not know what goes on before the Lord Chancellor and before the Speaker. The theory is that "strangers " may be told to withdraw. But for many years no such theory has been put into practice, and every morning paper throughout the United K ingdom gives the proceedings of the Houses the night before. It has become the duty of the journalist to present these reports. When Mr. - Wason, therefore, out of spite, first to the Lord Chief Baron, and subsequently to the Times (which exonerated that hon. judge), applied for damages against the leading journal. Sir Alexander Cockburn demonstrated the folly of a law which made it imperative on a newspaper to do that which would afterwards incur a pen a lty. M r . Wason, nothing abashed, has brought his case up before the court again. Judgment will certainly go against him ; but he has rai se d a p o i n t w hi c h i s one o f the mostimportant of modern times. MR. ROEBUCK AND THE "SHEFFIELD INDEPENDENT." Mr. Roebuck has failed to win at Sheffield, but he nas had his r evenge. The journal which had hitherto supported him, when he turned so independent as to vote Conservative on everyoccasion, took up aposition against him. But the said journal was indiscreet, and published things which the world ought not to know. It hunted up papers which are supposed to be known only to Chancery. It deal red secrets which were intended to be disclosed for the first time to Lord Romilly. And Lord Romilly was appealed to by " the late member for Sheffield" to punish it. So its proprietors have to apologise to the court. The precedent was laid down b . y the late Vice- Chancellor, the present Lord Justice Wood ; so that had the defendants appealed they would have obtained no redress from the Lords Justices, for even if Sir Charles Selwyn differed the judgment of the court below would have been affirmed. The law as laid down is a salutary one. In the Tichborne case, for instance, the local journals were taking sides and prejudicing the case before it had come for decision.
