The public will learn with great satisfaction that her MAJESTY'S health has benefited by her sojourn abroad. Previous to the royal departure for Scot land yesterday an interesting ceremony took place. The United States' Minister was introduced by Lord STANLEY to the QUEEN, and presented his credentials. In some respects the change that has been made in the American representatives among us has been advantageous, for it has afforded an opportunity for the exchange of cordial sentiments, and the Governments on both sides of the Atlantic seem to have vied with each other in making efforts to promote the entente cordiale, upon which so much depends. Lord RUSSELL, when he was Foreign Secretary, sacrificed a good deal to keep on good terms with the Americans, but be did it in such a bungling fashion that no one was satisfied. Lord STANLEY has been far happier in his work, and while no concession has been made that is in any way unfitting to the dignity of the country many causes of difference have been removed, and the most vexations matters adjusted satisfactorily to all parties. Mr. REVEIWY JOHNSON inaugurates his career under the most favourable auspices, and the willing ness the American Government has shown to settle the Alabama claims in the most amicable manner promises well for the future success of his mission. So much has been said and written about the American difficulty that it is satisfactory to be able to meet the unfavourable comments with the most direct denial, and the present relations be tween the two countries cannot be put on a more reassuring footing than they are at present—a con summation at which all patriotic statesmen will rejoice, whatever party they may belong to among ourselves or the communities beyond the mighty ocean which separates us without dividing our in terests, which are, in truth, identical. Mr. CoorE has been more fortunate in his recent attempt to address a meeting in the Tower Hamlets. First of all he alluded to the disgrace ful affair at the Beaumont Institution, where he said he had lost his voice in a good cause. There is a great deal:of truth in the observations he made, to the effect that all men had a right to speak their opinions, whether others agreed with them or not, and "freedom of discussion" is certainly an iusq tution of the land we live in which tiles) who pro fess to aid the cause of progress, and to facilitate the march of mind, stultify themselves by ignoring. Indeed such conduct is open to the charge of the promoters of the strife, being unwilling to hear the truth sp)ken for fear it should con tradict their assertions, and a goof cause need never make its advocates ashamed, whatever oppo sition is made to it. After some allusion to the Irish Church disestablishment, Mr. COOPE passed on to other matters of general interest, declaring on that much debated point of the expenditure that economy was desirable, though it must be judi cious in order to be effectual, for there was " a great difference between reckless extravagance and a niggardly, cheese-paring economy," which, in deed, proves in the end to be the most extravagant mode of procedure. We are glad to find that Mr. COUPE spoke out about the equalisation of the rates, and explained his views on the matter. lie happened to occupy a house in St. George's-in-the West, and was also deeply interested in the parish of St. George's-in-the. East, and he could not understand why the rates should be double in St. George's-in-the-East compared with what they were in St. George's-in-the-West. It is, indeed, to be hoped that many will follow the example of this candidate, and do all that they can towards the equalisation of the poor rates throughout the me tropolis, and use every effort to remove the " gross anomaly." The remarks here met with about the working classes are very sound, and contrast favourably with the declarations of those who are always putting " class against class." Mr. CocPE spoke out boldly, and said that they were the greatest enemies of the working men who dared to tell them that their employers were their enemies. Of course he did not deny that there were employers who screwed down their workpeople, but these were not the rule; •at any rate their interests are identical, and when the labourer is badly off the employer suffers, and vice versa. Surely there must be some better way in an in telligent country like this than that differences of opinion about wages should be settled by " strikes.' The injuries they inflict are great, and especially so to the workmen. Councils of arbitration have been advocated by some, and no doubt they offer advan tages which demand a trial, and they certainly are more promising than trials of strength of the un dignified kind hitherto in vogue. Mr. COOPE concluded his interesting remarks by ex pressing sympathy for the working classes in the many trials they had experienced, and advocating the improvement of their condition in many shapes, such as in promoting the sanitary arrangements and bettering their dwellings. It is very correct what he said about the necessity for the poor man to raise himself in the social scale by industry and integrity, and not to depend upon the work of others for his benefit. The real friends of the people, in short, are those who teach them to respect themselves and ennoble their own sphere of action, and not those who excite their passions, arouse their jealousies, and influence them to form an evil opinion of those whom chance has placed above them in social position, but who have no more claim to respect than those of inferior rank, if the latter fulfil the duties of their station, and live uprightly in the sight of all men. Mr. C. MILLS addressed a meeting at Sydenham, and expressed his determination to support the pre sent Government, whose claims he duly sets forth. In criticising Mr. GLADSTONE, he observed that the reason why the right hon. gentleman had made so much appearance of reduction was that he had thrown the burden on future' years, and hence we are now suffering in a great measure from his re trenchment, for which he claims such praise, and in contrast to which he heaps such reproaches on his opponents. Mr. TALBOT, who spoke subse quently, also referred briefly to the subject, and asked why the Liberals had just manifested so much zeal on this question, when, if they really cared about the matter, they could have checked the ex pense in the House of Commons with their much talked of majority. Tue City of Paris, bringing us news from New York to the sth inst., reports that the members of the Georgian House of Representatives are already tired of tLeir black confreres. By a majority of 80 to 23 they have declared the negro members to be ineligible. This result was only to be expected, since, however strong the partisanship of the Radicals, they always shrink themselves from that association with the negroes which they would force upon others. It was as unreasonable to suppose that the blacks would be agreeable com panions for men of another race, of other habits and ways of thinking, as it was absurd to suppose they could instantly become fit to legislate on the affairs of a great country. It was possible by a stroke of the pen or by a vote of Congress to convert the slave into a free man, but no such sudden transformation could be effected in his mental and moral attributes. The policy which would force the negro into sudden political and social promi nence is cruelly unjust to him as well as unfair to the whites. It is idle to act as though the negro race were in the same position as the Poles, as the Hun garians of old, or any other civilised nation whom the fortune of war or the rapacity of aggressive neighbours has deprived of national independence. As regards the Hungarians or the Italians, those among them that have succeeded in breaking or lightening the yoke laid upon them by a strong power have proved themselves as capable of self government as any other nation, but the blacks have never reached the height of intellectual de velopment which it requires. Individuals here and there have shown marked ability and have been carefully educated, but as a whole the negroes are as incapable of forming accurate political judgment as they are actually indifferent to the great ques tions involved. With personal freedom and social comfort the negro would trouble himself very little about votes and Congresses unless he were stirred up to do so. The pleasures of intellectual development, the science of govern vernment, the great questions of political economy, these are not matters to engross his attention. A life of ease, and idleness, and gaiety is more con genial to his natural tastes and habits, and those who agitate on his behalf to secure him an equal position with the whites are seeking their own ends, and not his. When the convulsions of the time have died out this fact will be more clearly recog nised, but the mischief of it is that those who are bestirring themselves among the blacks are doing lasting mischief. They are depriving the negro of his easy contentment and good humour by stir ring him up against his fellows, and they are inflaming his mind with visions that can never be realised. If matters are pushed to an extreme the blacks must suffer, for the white race would inevit ably assert its supremacy, but the bloodshed and misery which would result would owe their origin to the selfish and interested system of agitation which has been pursued towards the negro. The sudden removal of his chains would have been somewhat of a risk in tranquil times, and would have needed great watchfulness on the part of those in authority. It was effected without any safeguards in the time of national excitement and disturbance, when the negroes were only regarded in the light of a political gain or hindrance, and when inetead of every effort being made to help them safely over the change they were excited and inflamed with incendiary addresses. Now they have learned to form themselves into armed bands and roam lawlessly about the country it will not be so easy to re-transform them into peaceable culti vators of the soil. This is the next difficulty in the - way of Southern reconstruction, but it is one which the pressure of other questions has hitherto pre vented the North from realising. In Georgia we have seen matters are coming to a climax, and it is said that armed bands of negroes are patrolling the road near Savannah. The Americans, who pride themselves on lea ling the van of nations, have a special problem to deal with of no small difficulty, and it remains to be seen how they c dispose of it without injustice to the negro or injury to themselves. The New Yolk Democratic State Convention has just adopted a.platform which has gained the uni versal suffrages of its members. It upholds a general amnesty to political offenders, and the im mediate restoration of the Southern Staten to the Union. So far all is well, but the rest of the pro gramme is more doubtful. The payment of the public debt " in lawful currency" is advised, ex cept where gold payment is distinctly expressed ; that is to say, America is to keep her word in the letter, and not in the spirit. The loss of national prestige which such a course would entail would cist America far more than she would gain. A lima to so shabby an experiment would speak very ill for the commercial integrity of the nation, and would be felt by all high-spirited and straightfor ward Americans as a national disgrace, while in the eyes of the far-sighted politicians and financiers of Europe such a course:would be regarded as some thing " more than a crime—a blunder." The International Workmen's Congress has brought its labours tQ au end at last, and its mem bers have betaken themselves to their own respec tive countries, to put, we may presume, their theories into practice. We apprehend that in some cases the task will not be a very easy one. The concluding address gives some faint idea of the work expected from them. " The International Association calls upon working men to pronounce against war, to oppose it by all the means in their power, to refuse to countenance assassina tion, and to organise a propaganda for the education of the poor." So far as assas sination is concerned—referring, we presume, to the attacks made by Trade Unionists on refractory members—we are heartily glad to see the decision arrived at ; while, if working men did a little more towards the education of - their own children, there would, undoubtedly, be a great improvement in the mental training of the people. But as for war, what is to become of the gunsmiths, the men-of war builders, the gunpowder manufacturers, the sol diers, tailors, and twenty other trades? The Congress reckons upon the working men of all countries to " strike" against war by " abstaining from all work in the event of war breaking out in their respec tive countries." But, unluckily for philosophy, this would be, in many cases, a strike against them selves. A time of war is a time of increased acti vity in all war trades. It was during the American war that the workshops and factories of Birming ham were busier than they ever were before. Does the Congress think, indeed, that men will sacrifice their own immediate pecuniary interest to an abstract theory at the other side of the globe ? If so, the working men of Brussels have soared into the clouds, while the rest of us are only walking on the earth ? A DISAPPEARANCE. —In The Sun on Tuesday it was stated that a young man named Campbell, who had taken his vacation tour into Wales, hal sent home to Highgate his carpet bag in a mysterious manner, and had disappeared. He has now returned horns after being ad vertised, and the public will be glad to learn, after the several disappearances, that he has accounted for his ab sence. ROBBING GARDENS. Yesterday at liighgate Police-court a man named Gough was charged with the tit:lawful possession some apples. Besides the apples Ll 10s. in gold was found on hie), It was another caso of robbing a gentleman's garden. The prisoner, on being asked what he had to state, replied, "Nothing." Ile was fined, with costs, 10s., which was paid out of the money found in Lis possession. LATEST INTELL LGENCh. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) THE EARTHQUAKES LN" PERU. PLYMOUTH, Sept. 14. The Panama and Pacific papers have not arrived by the Shannon, through a break down occurring on the railway on the night she left Colon. Passengers from Peru express their belief that the effects of the earthquake have been much ex aggerated. The shock on August 13 was felt at Lima at 5 p.m., and at Callao at 5.45 p.m. Between 8 and 10 p.m. several lesser shocks were felt, and an im mense tidal wave was witnessed by the shipping at Callao. The Peruvian and French men-of-war stationed there put out to sea. No lives or vessels were lost, but several merchantmen were damaged and a large quantity of property was washed off the wharves. CONFIRMATION OF THE GREAT LOSS OF LIFE. We regret to state that private telegrams re ceived from New York this morning, .via Atlantic Cable, confirm in a measure the previous telegrams of the awful sacrifice of human life and property at Arica, Arequipa, and other seaport towns of Peru and Ecuador, by a succession of earthquakes. One telegram is from Mr. Mackay, Lloyds' agent at New York, and received this morning by Mr. Stephenson, secretary of Lloyds : NEW YORK, Sept. 14. Dreadful earthquake on the coast of Peru and great loss of life and property at Arica. The ships Chanarcilla, Rosarivera, and Edwards wrecked at Chinchas. The ships Resolute, Eastern Empire, Royal Oak, Southern Ocean, Oceanica, and Leopold IL, dis abled at Juin. The ship Deilue and Henrietta were wrecked at Mejellones. The ship Condor also lost. Messrs. Schuster, Son, and Co., 90, Cannon street, E.C., received this morning, via New York, a telegram from Tacna, in Peru, which confirms the statement that Tacna is safe. The telegram also states that Arica has been destroyed, and that the loss of property is enormous. The Pacific Steam Navigation Company have re ceived this morning a telegram via New York, stating that the company's vessels and property on the west coast of South America were all safe. AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, Sept. 15. The North German Lloyd steamer Deutschland, from New York, passed the Needles at 7.35 a.m. to day. NEW YORK, Sept. 14.

Again, recently, the French authorities have been solicited to make a further act of condescension. According to im memorial usage the key of the church above named is d ;posited at the French Consulate, where it can only be obtained when that sanctuary is to be enter ed. This privilege belongs to the Latin race and the Catholics, and if these should surrender it, the , act would be one of weakness in the eyes of the. Eastern population, who attach to such questi,,ns of form an importance not dreamt of in Europ. 3. Russia, however, desires to have a key of the Holy Sepulchre, and the steps which it hqs taken :at Constantinople are naturally referred to Paris. The representative of the French Em peror in: Turkey and the Minister of Foreign Af fairs apparently understood the aim of the ap plicatiot t thus urged by the Cabinet of St. Peters burg, an cf. on the present occasion the Marquis de Moustier is said to have replied by a distinct re , f ugal." CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROX OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, MONDAY, September 14. The war agitation has greatly diminished during the last two or three days, but there are still some lingering traces of the epidemic. The few words spoken by the Emperor on leaving the camp at Chalons have made much stir on the Bourse ; but such an oracular statement has, of course, produced divers effects. The Parisian "bears" find in this ambiguity a decided warlike signification, so much so that they conclude the first pretext furnished by Prussian policy will lead to a conflict. The "bulls," on the other hand, think the Emperor's phrases are calculated to dispel all apprehension of war. The Emperor, poor man, need not have troubled himself about the effect of his words. Whether he speaks or keeps silence the effect upon public opinion is pretty much the same. It is not the appre hension of war, but the uncertainty, that produces the mischief. As to the Bourse speculators, they must live, and to live they must speculate, and here is the beginning of the end of half the rumours. The Post of Berlin contains a very bellicose effusion. It says that war will be neither the act nor the fault of Germany, but that it may undoubtedly arise from the pretensions of the French to control the actions of the German people. The International Bulletin of Dresden says that Prussia calculates upon war breaking out during the autumn, or in the spring at latest. The Minister of War at. Berlin has transmitted to the staff of the Saxon army a plan of campaign chewing what course the 12th North German Corps d'Armc6, which is composed of the Saxon troops, ought to adopt in case the signal be given. The International Bulletin asserts that this hostile intelligence is correct. Reports from other quarters speak of secret preparations by the Prussian Government. The war budget is not, it seems, to become altogether a nonentity yet. The journals are all rejoicing at the Emperor's " speech " at Chalons, or rather at the sentence in which his Majesty declines to make a speech because the news papers would put a warlike interpretation upon it. The French press long ago thought itself the fourth estate in the realm, but a formal recognition of that status is an unexpected gratification. The Emperor left for Fontainebleau yesterday, whence he departed for Biarritz. His residence there for some time ought to afford Europe a little peace, even on paper, for, whenever war breaks out, it is hardly likely that the Emperor will direct the movements from the watering place of Biscay. General Menabrea, it is said, is about to visit France with his daughter and son-in-law. The vacancy caused in the Italian Ministry by the resignation of Signor Cadorna remains an open question. The Minister of Public Works has assumed the temporary direction of the Department of the Interior, but of course this cannot be a permanent arrangement. General Klapka has spent several days in Paris. The press prosecutions continue. The Union Lib&ale is ao present in difficulties. The printers' strike at Marseilles, which has now lasted a week, is not yet terminated. On Thursday a deputa tion from the workmen waited upon the committee of master printers, and submitted a proposition with the view of recommencing work. The masters would not accept the terms, and made a counter proposal, which the workmen unanimously rejected. The papers of Marseilles are still wholly or partially extinct. The Siecle guarantees the accuracy of the following story. Some years ago an actor named B— was visited by an old comrade named M—, whose acquaintance he had made in the provinces. M. B--'s visitor said that he had taken part in an unsuccesful dramatic specu lation abroad, that the manager had left the company without paying them, and that he was reduced to the last extremity. M. B— assisted his brother actor, lodged him for some time, and introduced him to other artistes, who also lent their aid. At length his guest announced that he had obtained a post at Brussels, and that having received advances he should like to entertain his friends at breakfast. His offer was accepted ,and a rendezous appointed, but M— never met his friends. When M. B— went home he found a letter awaiting him, which stated that M— had gone off to California, and had been obliged to contract with M. B-- a little forced loan, which he would not fail to repay. M. B—, on examination, found that M— had taken a gold watch and chain, two rings, three banknotes of £4 each, £8 in gold, and another ring enriched with a diamond—a present from the Emperor of Russia. M. B— bewailed his loss, and then forgot it. A day or two ago he received a later, stating that the recreant M— would soon be in Paris, and in the meantime had sent £l,OOO in recompense for the robbery committed so many years ago.

Barometrical pressure has not changed much in the last twenty four hours: at no station does the reading differ one-tenth of an inch from that of yesterday. In the W. of Ireland a tendency to decrease has sbewn itself since last evening, and readings are comparatively low in southern and western districts. A difference of nearly four tenths of an inch exists between pressures at Nairn and L'Orient. Temperature is a little higher than it was yesterday. Easterly winds were prevalent yesterday, and blew strongly on our S. and E. coasts ; and this morning they are generally from the same quarter, but are strongest in the S. of Ireland from E.S.E. The weather is cloudy. A thunderstorm is reported from Toulon. The news brought by the Shannon partly confirms and partly disputes the first intelligence of the earthquakes in Peru and Ecuador. There can now he no doubt that the disasters really did occur, for the passengers on board the Shannon state the precise time at which the first shock, that of the 13th, was felt at Lima, and give some details of its effects. It now remains to be determined whether, as we still hope, the report by the Atlantic telegraph was exaggerated. The particulars brought by the Shannon cannot be deemed decisive on this point, but some facts which may be gathered from the two meagre bulletins are worthy of consideration. In the first place, the towns which are said to be destroyed lie for the most part in a group round about Arequipa. Now, Arequipa is 500 miles south of Lima and Callao ; so that a' subterranean convulsion which might be slightly felt at the latter place might be most disastrous in a district so much further south. Lima and Callao really constitute one city, and the evidence which comes from both these places must be deemed the evidence of one place only. But the loss of life was not greatest in Peru, where this group of towns, which has been destroyed, is situated. Whilst 2,000 lives are reported to have been lost in Peru, the loss of life in Ecuador is estimated as high as 22,000. Ecuador lies to the north of Peru, and its frontier is 1,000 miles distant from Arequipa. Litna lies between the two points. It is, therefore, remarkable that the earthquakes should have been terribly fatal in Ecuador and very destructive in the south of Peru, whilst a city lying midway between the two points should have escaped. Unfortunately such a phenomenon is quite possible, and, further, the mere fact that the earthquakes were felt over a district of such immense extent in some degree goes to prove that the shocks must have been severe and their effects disastrous. Intelligence of the recent events in South America comes from both sources. The Paraguayan account states that the garrison of Humaita, numbering 4,000 men, passed into the Chaco, and had there to sustain daily combats with forces " ten times its number." After fighting from the 25th of July to the sth of August, half of the Paraguayans succeeded in forcing the line of the allies, and joined their force at 'limbo. The other half of the heroic garrison was left on the field of battle. A civil war in the Argentine Republic was considered imminent. An encounter had already taken place between the insur gents supported by Mitre and the troops of General Urquiza. The Brazilian account says that the force of 4,000 Paraguayans was captured or destroyed. It takes no account of the insurrection. The news leads the Times to conclude that Lopez must hays prepared to fall sword in hand with as many of his f dlowers as are willing to abide with him to the last. His position on the Tebi °nary must sooll, be invested tn ali Ocjeo Fi_d retreat T.O an. SUNDAY TRADING. George Bedford, a labouring man, about 40 yeas of age, has been charged before Mr. Ellison with having caused an obstruction in Hare-street, Brick-lane, by offering a couple of pigeons for sale. The circumstances in con nection with these charges and the illegal traffic carried on on Sunday mornings in the thoroughfare men tioned may be fresh in the recollection of the public ; the worst of the matter, however, is, that the Church of St. Matthias is in the same thoroughfare, and in consequence of this nuisance the Divine service held therein is considerably interrupted. Sometimes on a wet day such persons as the prisoner will even go into the church aisle, and, hanging the baskets, cages, and things on the pews, there carry on their buying and selling in the church. In this case the prisoner was seen by Edward Taylor, police constable 70 H, in front of the church door with a crowd collected round him, and he was exposing the pigeons, which he carried in a basket. After having cautioned him the prisoner left, but soon stopped again, and again collected a crowd around him. He was, there fore, taken into custody.—The prisoner said he did not think he was doing any harm.—Mr. Ellison fined him 205., or in default fourteen days. A PROBABLE CHANGE OF FRONT. According to the Pall Mall Gazette various indications confirm the suspicion that some at least of the Conserva tives meditate a change of front in regard to the Irish Church similar to that they so daringly effected in re gard to Reform. Mr. Earle Welby, for example, in his address to the electors of South Lancashire, says : "I should view with the utmost regret, and, so long as I can do so with reasonable prospect of success, should op pose any measure having for its object the severance, in either country, of the connection between Church and State ; but I cannot conceal from myself that cir cumstances may arise under which to prolong such resistance would be not merely useless, but mischievous. I must, therefore, if elected as your member, reserve the right of acting in such a case to the best of my judgment, which will he guided solely by an earnest desire to uphold the interests of the Church and the integrity of the Protestant faith." Recollecting Mr. Wolby's succession to Lord Kesteven (Sir John Trollop) in the representation of the county and the new peer's confidential relations with the Premier, this hedging about the Irish Church is certainly signi ficant. Sir Stafford Northcote, too, in a speech on Saturday, frankly admitted that he regretted the change in the franchise, and would have preferred to see it maintained at the old figure. The arguments by which he attempted to justify his acquiescence in the Reform Act would equally apply to a similar face-about regard to the Irish Church, and are perhaps intended to prepare the 'Way for some such movement. ELECTION COM2IIIITEES AT PUBLIC HOUSES. The connection of public-houses with elections has, perhaps, been one of the main causes of immoral practices at elections, and now that a general feeling prevails in favour of greater purity at elections, the first step in many places has been to remove the committees from public-heusos. This was done at Manchester when Mr. Jacob Bright was returned for that city last year ; the same was the case at Stoke when Mr. Melly was elected. The reports of the election proceedings in these places notice the remarkable contrast on these occasions in the order, sobriety, and decency which prevailed as compared with the riot and de bauchery of former elections. A very general desire prevailed in Liverpool that the forthcoming elections should be conducted on both sides in a manner similar to the last elections at Manchester and Stoke, and memorial was accordingly got up, of which the following is a copy:—" To the Councils of the Liberal and the Con servative Associations in Liverpool.—lmpressed with the manifold evils attending the holding of election committees in public-houses, the undersigned would respectfully urge upon the associations that direct election committees in Liverpool the desirability of not holding the committees fo'r the forthcoming election in public-houses." This me morial received from 200 to 300 signatures •in the Exchange Newsrooms in a few days, and many of the merchants expressed their delight that such a movement had been inaugurated, and their hope that the object aimed at might be accom plished. On Thursday last, by appointment, the memorial was presented to the Liberal committee by an influential deputation, and on Friday the same deputation waited upon the Conservative committee. It was explained that the object of the deputation was entirely to promote morality and sobriety in the conduct of the election, and not in any way to favour on the one hand or to embarrass on the other either of the two parties. The committees of both the Liberal and the Conservative Associations received the deputation cour teously, stating that they were fully alive to the evils attending public-house committees ; that they would as far as possible carry out the wishes of the memorialists ; and that, in fact, they had already taken steps with that object in view. Mr. Gladstone, who has been suffering from an attack of English cholera, is now reported to be much better. One enterprising tailor, desirous of combining with his admiration for the house of Bute a stroke of business, exhibited a novel transparency, on which was paiuted pair of " inexpressibles," with the motto "Long live the marquis to wear -'s sixteen shilling trousers." The committee appointed by the Chester Board of Guardians to demand the children who are retained in St. John's Orphanage, in that city, under circumstances already reported, have made an application to the persons in charge of the institution for a restitution of the children, but they declined to accede to it. The death has been announced of the Dowager Baroness Bloomfield at tho age of ninety-two. Her lady ship, who was a daughter of Mr. John Douglas, of Gran tham, was married to Lord Bloomfield in 1797. His lord ship died in 1846, and was succeeded. by his son, the present peer, British Ambassador at the Court of Vienna. The Daily News publishes a second paper on two comets of the year. The special point of interest attaching to these bodies—Brorsen's and a new one—is the remarkable discovery that both comets are gaseous and self-luminous, and that the latter consists of volatilised carbon. PARRICIDE.—A labourer, named Dugoguez, 19 years of age, has just been arrested at Behagnies, near Arras (Pas de Calais), for murdering his father by striking him on the left temple with a stake. Marks of violence on the body lead to the conclusion that strangulation had also been attempted. When taken before the commissary of police the prisoner avowed his crime with the utmost coolness. Conducted by the gendarmes in presence of the corpse, he manifested no emotion, but commenced smoking his pipe. lie has been committed for trial. A poor Irish cripple sat begging at a bridge, urging his appeal to the charity of the passengers. A gentleman and lady—young, gay, handsome, with that peculiar look of gratified and complacent consciousness which indicates the first few weeks of married life— crossed the bridge. They regarded not the petition of the beggar ; so, just as they passed him, he exclaimed, " May the blessing of the Lord, which brings love, and joy, and wealth, and a fine family, follow you all the days of your life "—a pause ; the couple passed heedlessly on, and the beggar, with a fine touch of caustic humour, added, " and never overtake you." At Birmingham, on Sunday evening, a number of persons miraculously escaped death by the fall of a house in Park-street. At the time of the occur rence there were ten persons in the house. A loud crash was suddenly heard, and the whole of the front and side of the house gave way, and fell forward. Two persons in the attic escaped injury, but the occupants of the second floor were carried away with it, and precipitated below, and buried beneath the falling debris. The ceiling of the lower floor did not entirely give way, hut became formed in the shape of an arch, affording protection to the three in mates, who would but for this undoubtedly have suffered seri ous injury from the full weight of the falling materials. A number of willing volunteers immediately set to work to remove the debris and rescue the inmates. In a very short space of time the whole of the inmates were got from be neath the debris, and it was then found that none had re ceived fatal injuries. A very important meeting on the subject of "Scientific instruction" was held on Saturday ie the Leeds Town Hall, under the rresidency of the Mayor. The principal object of the gatherkg, which the Yorkshire Board of Educa tion had convened, was to communicate to the schoolmasters of the district the advantages bold out by the Science and Art Department to those who qualify themselves as teachers of science. Mr. J. F. Iselin, the Chief Government In spector for Science, gave some valuable information regard ing the scheme of the department ; and Mr. W. H. J. Traice explained, by means of interesting statistics to what extent science classes and examinations have been carried on in the neighbouring counties of Lancashire and Cheshire. With the view of giving a practical termination to the pro ceeding, Mr. G. Jarmain (who has been for some years labouring almost alone in this district as a science teacher, and to whose capabilities the Government inspector bore high testimony), intimated his readiness at 9oco to men • If classes for instruction in chemistry. ,-; an al Ft (2 ' - ‘ ralbt HER MAJESTY. WINDSOR CASTLE, Sept. 14. Her Majesty the Queen, accompanied 1 y her Royal Highneis Princess Louie, walked and hove in the grounds this morning. Prince Leopold and Princess Beatrice also went out.

Caricature History of the Georges. By Thomas Wright, F.S.A. Profusely illustrated. One vol., pp. 639. Hotten. The merriest book, surely, this is that we have anywhere seen published since the issuing from the press of the third and last series of John Leech's " Sketches of Life and Character." Mr. Hotten has the trick somehow of producing every now and then a work perfectly sui generi. He did this in his quaint repertory of anecdotes about old English Taverns and Hostelries, entitled " The History of Signboards." He did it, again, in that other and quainter repertory of his, cell" prising within it all the waifs and strays, the jet - , som and flotsom of colloquial English—." Th e Slang Dictionary." And, now, in a book more amusing than both of those popular tomes rolled into one, he here—under the editorship, or rather, indeed, under the direct authorship of Mr. Thomas Wright; F.S.A.—supplies us with Authentic Annals of the House of Hanover, compiled from the Squibs, Broad sides, Window Pictures, Lampoons, and Picto rial Caricatures, of the time : in other words, with a Caricature History of the Georges, embel lished with facsimiles from the comical drawings (among others) of Gilray, Rowlandson, Sayer, Banbury, and Cruikshank. Outside the adinelY , thickish, green, gilt-emblazoned book, we have (oil the cover) " Farmer George and his Wife." Out side, too (on the back), we have as arch-type of "A Brandy Drinker," the vera effigies—thoug h blotched-cheeked and pimple-nosed—of Richa rd Brinsley Sheridan. Inside —as a vignette to the title page—the latter limning of poor Old Sherry is repeated. Inside, again, George 111. re-appear s upon the brilliantly-coloured frontispiece though in another guise than that of honest Farmer George and his wife trudging t a market. As the King of Brobdingnag, holding Gulliver forth on the palm of his hand in order that he may examine the homunculus a little more care fully—George 111., arrayed in his scarlet coat, crossed by the blue ribbon of the Garter, is peering through a microscope at Bonaparte ! " 311 little friend Grildrig," quoth the King of Brob -dingnag [here as usual misprinted without the n as Brobdignag], you have made a most admirable panegyric upon yourself and country, b ut from what I can gather from your O n relation, and the answers I have with much pa ns wriuged and extorted from you, I cannot but eea elude you to be one of the most pernicious little odious reptiles that nature ever suffered to craw' upon the surface of the earth." Somehow the relativ e disproportion of the sizes, so to speak, of the Of° personages here depicted in this famous caricature of Gilray's tells nowdays so entirely the other Way that the cut originally directed against Nap o ' Leon I. flies back like a boomerang hitting old George 111. right upon the nose, straight between the eyes, causing him to appear (by any such colliP a , rison as this) supremely ridiculous.
