Yesterday was a grand field night in the House of Lords, and the excitement was great, and many circumstances combined to render the affair most brilliant and interesting. Lord GRANVILLE moved the second reading of the Established Church (Ire land) Bill, and made a long speech on the matter, in which his lordship used the same arguments with which we are all by this time so familiar from the constant recurrence of the subject in the House of Commons. The late Fenian disturbances proved the necessity of doing something definite with respect to Ireland, and amending the policy pursued towards that country. Lord GRAN VILLE did his best to defend Mr. GLADSTONE from the charges that have been brought against him of having brought on a scheme without much consideration, and having too hastily plungled Parliament into the midst of a vexatious strife. The bill before the House, according to the noble earl who leads the Opposition in the House of Lords, is a matter of necessity, in consequence of the de mand for legislation, and, as might be expected, from one of Lord GRANVILE'S facility in debate, he adduced many reasons, and dexterously applied quotations,ito show that this measure, and no other, was imperatively called for, and that no delay should occur in its passing. As for the Irish people not caring about the bill that the noble lord did not entertain for a moment, and he wound up his earnest address by the declaration that the policy he indicated to the House would, in the end, be of service to the English Church in Ireland, TILE "SUN" NEWSPAPER.-(T.

SMITH'S, "Camden Stores," 73, Park-street, Canvlen t„ while it would be of benefit to the Established Church in this country. Whatever opinions may be as to the reasons of this speech, there can be no doubt that the noble lord acquitted himself admir ably of his task, and spoke with great ability. The speech of the evening was that of Lord DERBY, and it must have afforded the House great satisfaction to hear the noble lord speak with the energy and en thusiasm of his better days. Apart from all per sonal rivalry and political dissension, there can be but one opinion as to the popularity.of the noble lord, and to hear again the " clear Saxon of his silver style " was a treat to all lovers of oratory. At the outset of his remarks, Lord DERRY said that he feared his strength would not permit him to ad dress them at length, but that idea was dispelled long before he completed his brilliant speech. Lord DERBY'S opinions on this question are too well known to need comment, and he advocated his views with all the earnestness and eloquence of which he is so great a master. One part of the noble lord's speech was very forcible, that in which he said that the House of Lords was not bound to ratify the decision of the House of Commons. So that we perfectly agree with the noble earl, and, as he put it most forcibly, it would be better not to be at all than to exist under such a slavery. As for the notion that the House of Commons in sup porting Mr. GLADSTONE has represented most accu rately the feeling of the country, the noble lord said that when the present House was elected this ques tion of the Irish Church was not put before the con stituencies, and hence the feeling of the country has not been decided yet cn the point. We are not sur prised that a man of Lord DERBY'S independent spirit should be indignant at the arbitrary tone assumed by those who have taken the lead in this question. A year ago who thought that Mr. GLADSTONE was coming forward iu support of the disestablishment of thelrish Church ? And yet does he not speak with all the authority and saroir faire of one who is quite conversant with his theme, and deems it his time honoured privilege to carry it at all hazards ? The quotation of Lord PALMERSTON'S speech which Lord DERBY made was most appropriate, and the amusement of the House was excited by the passage in which the noble lord referred to the foundation of the case being a weak administration, or. " I will add, an Opposition desirous of obtain ing their seats" On the whole, the speech of Lord DERBY was an eminently characteristic one, and replete with all that thought and energy which has made him so great a master of oratory and the firstl debater of the House of Commons. Earl GREY, who took upon himself to move that the bill be read a second time that day six months, justified the course he had taken in preventing the Government from doing so, by saying that it was not desirable to make it a party affair. The noble lord declarel that ho was against the Irish Church as it stood, but he did not approve of the measure before the House or the means proposed to carry out the end. He said very truly that the plan pursued by the Opposition was not a wise one, for it forced the Government to make up their minds too hastily,and in the end put more obstacles in the way of a speedy set tlement than any that existed before it. Lord MA LmEs - BURY made some remarks, in which he dwelt on the great inconsistency that had marked Mr. GLADSTONE'S conduct, and declared that this measure, if carried, would lead to disestablishmeut generally. The Bishop of LONDON made some very temperate re marks, in which he said that the Irish Church Establishment might be modified without any detriment, but this measure was one of too extreme a character, and could only cause confusion. We cannot agree with Lord KIMBERLEY'S argument that it is time to legislate, on the plea of Feuianism. On the contrary, to do so, or to avow that we do so, is to establish a dangerous precedent. To secure the correct end is one thing, and to go about using arguments that because disaffection exists the demand for legislation has increased is another, and if only upon the ground of this Fenian movement it would have been much wiser to have deferred the question of the Irish Church until the meeting of the new Parliament had assembled. The debate in the House of Lords was adjourned, and to-night will probably witness its close; and it may safely be said that for the excitement created and the interest of the discussions that ensued, it is long since its parallel has been seen. This Session, which was to have been so tranquil and uneventful, has indeed witnessed some stormy scenes. Although the debate in the House of Lords yes terday was the all-engrossing topic of the day, yet the incidents of the evening in the Commons were not without interest. According to notice, Mr. GnANT DOFF took the Prime Minister to task for his remarks on the Whig foreign policy at the Mer chant Taylors' Hall. It is a new fashion, and one not altogether in acc.lrlance with the spirit of Par liamentary etiquette, this custom of cross-question ing a Minister in his place in Parliament on the .ilthject of chance expressions used in the careless freedom of festive speeches. It is a fashion, we must acknowledge, which has originated and flour ished exclusively on the Liberal side, whether owing to the greater openness and plainness of language used by the Conservative statesmen, or to that jealousy which the principal members of the Opposition find it difficult to conceal.

Accord ingly, we do not often hear of a grand Conserva tive I.neeti . ng out of doors,whether at Edinburgh or in London., in Downing-street, or the provinces, withoat some inquisitive gentleman jumping up on the btu •k benches and requesting to be told the exact vi ords which so and so used in referring to such a. man, measure, or epoch, The reticence of official dignity should never, in the opinion of these gentlert ten, be laid aside, and a careless or ill-placed word si , oken casually at a social gathering becomes in that eyes the gravest of political crimes. Mr. GrtANT ,DUFF, indeed, excused his somewhat ill timed attvck upon the Premier last evening by hinting that Mr. DISRAELI was in the habit of making rash and reckless accusations in these speecheA out of doors, and that therefore it was everybr , dy's duty to call him to account for them. In the spring of 1858, said Mr. DUFF oracularly, the right hon. gentleman made a speech at Slough which treated great interest at the time, and was freely commented on in that house. If we remem ber rightly, the Opposition, in the mortification of their failure to dislodge the Government, carried the subject to the Upper House also. But it is a little too much remembering all that has come and gone since then to find the two speeches of '5B and '6B deliberately coupled toge ther, and to have the casual expressions of ten years since brought up for consideration, and analysed as if they were the terms of a European treaty or the conditions of a national charter. Such a course looks as if the critics set a wonderful value on the lightest words of the Epeaker, or else as if they were determined to attack him and were puzzled to find an opportunity. The foreign policy of Lord CLA- RENDON is just now the great subject of dispute. Mr. DISRAELI said at the Merchant Taylors' Hall that when the Conservatives succeeded to office the name of England was a name of suspicion and dis trust in every foreign Court, and there was no pos bility of cordial action with any of the great Powers. The Liberals upon this were quick to discover the fact that Earl DERBY had asked Lord CLARENDON to retain the seals of the Foreign-office. This is the whole substance of the angry debate which last night brought up some of the chief speakers in the House of Commons. Mr. GLADSTONE took the opportunity of reproving his illustrious rival for the " violent and sweeping tone of censure and con demnation he adopts towards those who differ from him !" Mr. GLADSTONE himself is so invariably mild, tolerant, and indulgent towards his opponents that he is undoubtedly well qualified not only to judge .of the errors of others, but to condemn and reprove them. If Mr. DISRAELI would but follow the example of Mr. GLADSTONE'S reticence of language and command of temper, and if Lord STANLEY would but take a lesson or two from Earl RUSSELL in ,the art of writing diplomatic de spatches, what a different world it would be ! As, unhappily, we are far removed from so desirable an end, let us see what the culprits find to say in their own defence. Lord STANLEY, indeed, according to Mr. LAYARD, who we all know is an adept at the act of discovering hidden secrets, has had no question likely to pro duce warlike results to settle. Luxemburg was settled by pressure from without, which induced Lord STANLEY reluctantly to give a guarantee which he did not intend to keep. The right hon. gentleman, it will be observed, is able to decipher not only men's hidden motives, but their future-in tentions. No wonder he can re td the most myste rious written characters I As for Mr. DISRAELI exonerates himself by reminding his assAilants that Lord CLARENDON was only Foreign Minister during a few comparatively inactive months, and that the whole of the great Danish question was settled without him. Here, again, he was called to account. Lord CLARENDON, it seems, was the moving spring of the Foreign Office for many years, and, though nominally Chancellor of the Dachy of Lancaster, he was really the controller of our foreign relations. It would not have been quite in accordance with Parliamentary etiquette or social politeness for the Prime Minister to have confessed the patent fact that Lord CLARENDON is known to be an amiable and liberal nobleman, whose politics are usually influenced by his chief, and that, owing to a near family connection, Lord DERBY naturally made him the offer to retain his post, knowing that he would be easily amenable to his own influ ence and arguments. Lord CLARENDON has never been an active mischief-maker ; he has left that to men of more vigour and more ambAion, who prefe► to " meddle and muddle" than to remain inactive or unnoticed. BANK OF FRANCE. PARIS, June 18. The following is the return of the Bank of France for the week ending to-day, together with the cor responding figur3s of the previous account : LITERATURE. Robert Falconer. By George MacDonald, LL.D., Author of " Alec Forbes of Howglen," &c. Three Vols. Murat and Blackett. " Robert Falconer," with equal justice, might, even as " Contarini Fleming," be entitled " a psychological romance," and yet hardly a romance, but a very sober reality. The biographer of " Robert Falconer" has given us in these volumes not so much a record of the adventures of his hero, as he has unfolded to us the history of his soul. In his early boyhood, in his anxious youth, in his mature manhood, the growth, the development, the strug gles, temptations, and trials of a heart of no com mon sensibility, and an intellect of no ordinary capacity, are revealed to us, and by one well quali fied for the task. Of George MacDonald it may truly be said that if he " thinks like a sage," he as suredly " feels like a man," and never were the .I,..pths of his philosophy and the tenderness of his human sympathy more powerfully and more pathetically proved than in this history of Robert Falconer. In it more than ia any of his previous works, the deep religious feelings of the writer are very powerfully revealed. His faith is, indeed, a "saving faith," and one made manifest in good works. Too often religious men make their religion more an affair of creed, and outward form, and rigid observance, the letter without the spirit. Robert Falconer, on the other hand, goes to the opposite extreme ; and while his whole life is an embodiment of the spirit of religion, he appears to avoid all outward form. He frequents no place of worship as a rule, and yet his life is a life of prayer. In his individual instance, according to the showing of his biographer, the result may have been satisfactory, but for the majority of men such an experiment would only prove disastrous. " A kingdom of the Just, then, let it be, Bat first consilor how thos3 Just agree." In his early days Robert Falconer is brought up by a tender-hearted, but strict and rigi I, grandmother. The scene lies, during the tirst part of the story, in Scotland. Robert is a Scotch " laddie," and his " grannie" is a strict adherent of that very devout but very intolerant school of religion which, more than all others, is re pellant to the heart of George AlacDon dl. His frequent allusions to the painful ordeal of a Scottish Sabbath vividly reveal the intensity of hi 3 experi ences. Even as Lord Byron (incredible as it ap pears) turned with loathing from the thought of [lorace —even of Horace !—in the recollection of his school-boy drudgery, " Which daily turned his sickening memory ;" so, too often, do the virtues of an overstrained fana tical theology rebel against all religious observances, and it is well if they do not reject religion. It is not so with Robert Falconer ; his life is a cmstant manifestation of his faith. In acts of charity and love for his brother man whom he does s3e, he endeavours to prove his love for the Master whom he has never seen, but of whose vivifying presence he is continually conscious. It could be wished that such a man, so fervent in faith and so zealous in action, might coma to learn how both have their full scope of action in the Church of Christ. Throughout the whole of these three volumes beautiful thoughts are scattered with no sparing hand, and in every page we re cognise the tender wisdom of the Christian philosopher. When he stands by the death-bed of his dearest friend, Robert Falconer is consoled to recognise on the beloved features " that awful and beautiful peace which is the farewell gift of the soul to its servant." When in the bye-streets of London he notices a poor wom tin disfigure I by gin and starvation selling matches, with a little infant smiling at her bosom, he exclaims, " A child fresh from God fin is its heaven where no one else could. The devil could drive the woman oat of Paradise, bat the devil cannot drive Paradise out of woman." Vary tender are his sympathies for his unhappy sisters. 'When he is pleading the cause of the fallen and the re pentant he tells his hearers " One thing is clear to that no indulgence of passion destroys the spiritual nature so much as respectable sel dshness." In his philosophical exertions for his helpless fellow-creatures, Robert Falconer thus encourages' his despondent fellow-labourers : Ile that believeth shall not make haste. There is plenty of time. You must not imagine that the result depends on you, or that a single human soul can be lost because you fail. It shows no faith in God to make frantic efforts or frantic lamentations." Bit we cannot, with a few specimens like these, lo justice to George Mac Donall's noble work. We must commend it as a whole to the best attention of our readers, assuring them they will find therein much food for reflection. As an evidence of the poetical character of Robert Fal coner's reflections, we must quote his remarks on the shocking carelessness of a mother who will tremble at the slightest sign of suffering in her child, but will bear him lie against his brother with out the smallest discomfort. When a companion pushes a street walking fr w o i m th t F h a e leo p n a e v r e , m r e o n u t g , hl h y is friend reminds him that by this hasty action he widens the dis tance between the ragged boy and his fellow-men. Alany snatches of poetry, of b 'autiful and thoughtful poetry, are introduced in this work, but the author tells us they are from the hand of a (lett. friend. There is poetry enough, however, in them, coming lirect from the thoughtful intellect and sympa thetic heart of the gifted author of Robert Fal coner." Zenobia, Queen of Palmyra. By the Rev. W. 'Ware. One Vol. Warne and Co. We are glad to see re-issued, in a most attractive volume, this most enthralling history of the last lays of Palmyra. Few chapters in the history of romance are more captivating than those recorded of the later days of romantic glory, and the early lawn of Christian civilization. The n trues of Aure lian and Zenobia, of Gracchus and L3aginus, of Lucius Piso and Faustula ant Julia, will linger pleasantly in the memory of all who read this work, as they do in our own, after the lapse of many years. Maximilian, and other Poems. By John Charles Earle, B.A. One Vol. Burns, Oates, and Co. This graceful volume of verses, dedicated to a charitable object, begins with some moving lines )n the " Death of Maximilian," supposed to have been written by that ill-fated Prince the evening before his execution. Artists and Alubs ; or, Sketching in Sunshine. By Henry Blackburn. Ono Vol. Sampson Low, Son, and Marston. The very delightful author of " The Pyrenees," has and " Travelling in Spain," here given U 3 another charming description of foreign scenes and men as they are. Pen and pencil vie with each other in graphic sketch and practical descrip tion. Some of the drawings are ludicrous in the extreme : witness the " Zouave it la mode" in the frontispiece, in which (assuredly not in accord ance with the customs of that race !) the Zouave turns his back alike upon friend and foe. CORRESPONDENCE PROM PARIS., 'EOM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, THURSDAY, June 25. The Pairte assures us that all the journals are wrong, and that the elections have not been discussed at the meet ings of the Council for the past six months. It is very strange, as the Arenir National remarks, that the Council should not concern itself with a matter which is occupying all the rest of France. So general is the belief that a dis solution is imminent, that throughout the departments the candidates are alreadypreparing for the campaign. More over,the Patric does to a certain extent contradict itself, for it says that in a few days the prefects will come up to Paris, in order to confer with the Government about:the elections. NOW it iS quite clear that these eighty-nine gentlemen would not have left their departments simultaneously unless they had been ordered to do so, nor would they have been ordered without some previous deliberation on the part of their superiors. It seems to me, therefore, more and more probable that we shall shortly see the electors invited to do their duty. No one doubts that the result of the elections will be the return of a large majority of members favourable to the Bonaparte dynasty. At the same time it is nearly certain that the Opposition will be materially strengthened. The number of new Liberal journals which are starting up on every side is a sign of the strong anti-despotic feeling which prevails, and will strengthen that feeling. To-day, for instance, there has appeared the first number of the new Opposition journal l'Eleeteur. Its editors are Jules Favre, Picard, and Ilenoti'; . three of the most distin guished members of the Left. It is brought out espe cially to influence the elections, and protests against the system of official candidates. M. Glais-Bizoin, another member of the same party, has just issued the first number of his journal, the COtes du Nord, published at Saint-Brieuc. The Emperor is said to have been profoundly impressed by the enormous sale of Henri Rochefort's La Lanterne (above 80,000 a number) contrasting so remarkably with the very limited sale of journals which, like the Etendard, are devoted to the Government. In some quarters it is said that this cir cumstance has so influenced Napoleon that he contemplates a further crowning of the edifice in the shape of some fresh concessions. On the other hand, there is a rumour of exactly the opposite purport, viz., that the Emperor is so disquited at the prospect of_ the elections that he means to issue a senatus-consultum, by which be will modify the rule requiring a candidate to poll an absolute majority of more than a half of the electors, and substitute one fourth. The Emperor arrived at Chalons yesterday afternone about six o'clock. He wore the uniform of a general of division, and was attended by Generals Fleury and Douay, and three other officers. Received by the General-in- Chief at the station, he mounted and rode through the midst of a double line of troops. On the right were three divisions of infantry, on the left were the cavalry and the artillery. Subsequently there was a grand dinner laid for fifty persons. To-day there is to be a grand manoeuvre, and to-morrow a review, at which medals and crosses will be distributed. It is expected also that the Thriperor will assist at the shooting match with the new arms. The weather at the camp last night was magnificent, and a welcome shower just before his ',Majesty's arrival, had laid the dust. I should mention that before the Emperor left Paris for Chalons he received M. Emile Pereire, of the Cr6dit Mobilier, who complains bitterly of the way. in which he has been treated by M. Pouyer-Quertier with respect to the Transatlantic mail packet contract. There is again much talk of diplomatic changes, and Oa appointments, which in a former letter I mentioned had been suggested, are again spoken of. It is also said that the Due de Persigny will be provided for abroad, as it is found that his ambition is too great to render his residence in France just now de sirable. Poor Count von Goltz, the Prussian Minister, is still very unwell. It is feared that he is suf fering from cancer of the tongue. Ho will not put himself under N4laton again, but has been persuaded to try a certain Van Smidt, whom the Paris doctors call a Dutch quack, but who claims to have found in the East Indies a certain cure for cancer. Our faculty say that if the Count's disease be cancer it is incurable ; if it be not, there is no need to go so far as India for a cure. This may be logic, but it is not surgery. There arc some further particulars about Prince Napo. Leon's journey. A letter from Vienna gives the following. The Duke of Baden desires to enter the North German Confederation. The Grand Duke of Hesse-Darmstadt is being pressed by his son and daughter-in-law (your Princess Alice) to do the same thing. Should they take this step, Bavaria and Wurtemherg would then be the only States of any importance outside the Confederation, and they could not possibly remain aloof long. It has been Prince Napoleon's object in visiting Vienna to prevent this fusion. He has endeavoured to persuade Baron von Beust to take measures in accord with France, in order to carry out his policy. The Austrian Premier has evaded any pledge on the subject, but the Prince is not without hope of eventually winning him over. Mean while, the papers are careful to inform us that the Austrian army is being rapidly reorganised, and that a large number of Chassepot rifles are being manufactured in this country for Austrian use. At Bucharest Prince Napoleon has had a very warm welcome. He was received by Prince Charles and his Ministers, who led him through streets gay with flags and triumphal arches. In the evening the city was illuminated, and there was a fete in honour of the Imperial visitor. The Etendard confirms the news that Menotti Gari baldi is enrolling volunteers in Italy, and makes the im portant addition that the Italian Government is offering no opposition. This 18 serious news. It is impossible to believe that a fresh Garibaldian attempt could be successful now that the French troops are in Papal territory, remembering that it failed last year. But though there is not the smallest chance of the Garibaldians being successful in overthrow ing the Pope, it is by no means so certain that they will not excite a revolutionary movement which will over throw Victor Emmanuel. There is no doubt that Menotti Garibaldi is doing the work of the Bourbons even more effectually than if he were in the pay of Francis of Naples. There are two remarkable leaders in to-day's Libcrte. In one M. Emile de Girardin points out that while the Temps is so anxious to put down capital punishments, of which there were only nine in 1.&36, it has nothing to say to the 101,767 imprisonments which took place that year. In the other article, entitled " La France est Sage," M. Mon Cahun savagely attacks the foreign policy of this country, pointing out with terrible sarcasm how it has failed in every single parti cular. M. Cahun says there is not a country in Europe, save France, which has not won something during the last fifteen years. England, by disentangling herself from ambi tious foreign diplomacy, has developed her political liberty and her commerce. Germany has obtained unity. So has Italy. Austria has, by wise concessions, restored harmony to her once mongrel empire. Even the " sick man" is recovering. But France has acquired Nice and Savoy, and thereby estranged Italy. She has demanded Saarlouis and Landau, and been refused. She has protected Turkey against Russia,and thereby raised difficulties in Montenegro, Servia, and Candia which she cannot overcome. Of Poland the less said the better. France has been in Mexico, and it was in Mexico that Maximilian was murdered a year ago. Where, then, are her acquisitions—her allies? Where is her internal prosperity, with the manufacturers crying out famine ; the bank choked with gold ; the great financial institutions tottering ; Algeria desolated with famine? As for science, all the rest of the world is advancing, save France. True, France is tranquil at home ; but she is so like the dervish who, having in a fit of passion killed an animal that lie loved, prayed heaven to liberate him from his passions, and was then left without any impulse towards good or evil, a living corpse. Great excitement has been caused at Limoges by the discovery, on Tuesday morning, of two dead bodies in a field, close to the most populous part of the town. The one was that of a man, the other that of a woman, end both were cut into numerous pieces. The hot weather has returned. To-day the thermometer has been 83 deg. Fahrenheit in the shade. The reorganisation of the Austrian army is going on rapidly. A large number of Chassepot rifles are being ma le in France for the use of the Austrian troops. The Post's Paris correspondent, referring to the general impression which prevails concerning the decision of the Emperor to call upon the people of France to elect new Chambers soon after the close of the present session, sup poses the Emperor looks forward to the result with con siderable anxiety, as when some time since general elections were contemplated, it will be remembered that a pamphlet appeared from the cabinet of his Majesty's secretary, remind. ing the nation of the services Napoleon 111. had rendered society, and the prosperitywhich had characterised his reign. No doubt, says the correspondent, a change has taken Place in the feelings of the people since they last sent deputies to Paris. Frenchmen have recovered from that alarm which the anarchy of the last revolution created. They do not any longer exclaim, "Let the Emperor do what he pleases ;he knows best !" There is a desire to exercise more control over the acts and policy of the sovereign. As far as observers can see, the next Jlections will shew a very large dynastic majority, for universal suffrage as exercised in France under actual cir cumstances is a dynastic vote ; it is a vote for sovereign, Constitution—in fact, Imperialism. The Roman Catholic priests will take a very active share in returning deputies to the legislative body. They haN;e cceived direct orderx DOiae. gic_giNeO& DEBTOR. June 25. June 13. fr. c. fr.

Mr. H. J St. Leger's New Ballads Under the titles, respectively, of " Ask Not," and " Thy Name," two charming ballads have recently been added to the Love-Songs of the Girl of the Period [not the Saturday Reviewer's to be trea sured up by her, we feel certain, among the choicest morceaux lately deposited in the drawer of her canterbury. They are written and composed, each of them, by Mr. and Mrs. IL J. St. Leger. " Ask Not," winning favour for itself (asking not in vain) through its tender interpretation by the lips awl voice of Madlle Angelina Salvi ; "Thy Name" not being taken in vain when sung by either Miss Fanny Poole or Mr. Alfred He:inning. "Ask Not," it should be added, is published by Mr. Duncan David son, and the companion ballad by Messrs. Kreutzer, Samson and Co., by whom has recently been issued from the press, also, a new edition of Mr. St. Leger's inspiriting Vice La Reine, a song brim ming over with loyalty, and to which have been appended additional verse s in reference to their Royal Ilizhnese3 the [ Prince and Princes of Walos, [ AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS FOR 1868. The Board of Trade has commenced its annual issue of blank forms, which, when properly filled up by the various landowners, farmers, and others to whom they are for warded, will greatly facilitate the collection of a large and valuable amount of statistical information respecting the quantity of land under cereal cultivation, &c., in Eng land, Scotland, and Wales. It is no secret, however, that the collection of these statistics is regarded with much disfavour by a large section of the agricultural community, whose persistent opposition has had no small share in rendering lamentably incomplete the returns of last year. Yet never was correct information relative to the state and quantity of our grain produce more needed than at the present moment, when the prospects of the coming harvest; not merely in this country, but also in Europe and America, are so extremely critical. Nearly all the numerous losses experienced from time to time by farmers and others in bringing their corn to market were occasioned by the absolute uncer tainty, arising from the absence of reliable informa tion, as to the quantity of grain actually in hand ; and if anyone is to. gain by the collection of agricultural statistics it is the farmer himself. An occasional visit to the various provincial corn markets is amply sufficient to prove how shortsighted and incorrect are most of the estimates formed by farmers respecting the aggregate yield of wheat in this country. Their calculations are wholly of a haphazard character, based on almost ridicu lously limited amount of knowledge and experience, good, we admit, so far as it goes, but wholly insufficient in these days of rapid intercommunication and tele graphic messages to protect the farmer from unnecessary risks in the market. He cannot, from his com paratively isolated condition, possess the means of forming anything like an accurate idea of the actual value of his cereal produce. He can do this only by comparing it, both in quantity and quality, with the general yield of the whole country, which, in its turn, must be com pared with the yield abroad, and what this is he can learn only from a complete and efficient system of agricultural statistics. If the British farmer is to maintain a foremost position among the food producers of Europe, he must learn to march with the times. He must ascertain not merely the quantity grown by himself, but also the quantity raised by his brother farmers, not in his own district alone, but all over the country. The more comprehensive and perfect his infor mation on these points the more correctly will he be enabled to form his conclusions, and the snore safely carry on his market operations.

The change is greatest in the north, where it exceeth four-tenths, and decreases in a southerly direction, being scarcely noticeable in the south of France. Temperature has not changed much. The winds over our islands are principally north-westerly ; but along the south coasts and in France they are light from E. and N.E. The weather this morning is generally flue. Writing from Canea under date June 9, the correspon dent of the Morning Herald says there has been some severe skirmishing - in the neighbourhood, the number of Turkish soldiers killed being estimated at between thirty and forty. The insurgent chief, Ziml:rakraki, is supposed to have embarked for Greece. The Turks still continue to offer concessions to the Cretans on submission, but the non-progressiveness of the Turks is so very apparent, and their word worth so little, that their " concessions " are only taken by the'Cretans as mere words having no mean ing. Foreign representatives in Crete have advised the insurgents to lay down their arms. These are represented as being much astonished at receiving this advice from French, Russian, and Greek sources. The " sick man ". seems to be doing uncommonly well just now. On all hands he is receiving addresses of con gratulation upon his renewed vigour. The Bulgarians, who are popularly supposed to be always on the eve of revolt, have just congratulated the Sultan upon granting to his people the blessing of European institutions. They say that there are none among all the Sultan's subjects who have so much reason as the Bulgarians have to bless their sovereign. " Before you we were forgotten and oppressed. To-day the light of prosperity is developing itself among us." The new Prince of Servia is about 14, and is described as very good-looking and elegant, with particularly fine eyes and frank countenance. The Dowager Princess Julia, widow of the murdered Prince Michael, refuses to take any part in the government. A Council of Regency will be appointed, which will include all political parties, and thus, it is hoped, avoid partisan intrigues. There seems to be a complete reign of terror at Ravenna. The inquiry into the murder of the Government official lately assassinated in the streets in broad daylight has had no other effect than to prove that the witnesses are afraid to say anything. They all declare that they saw noCiing, and know nothing. Since this murder there have been other crimes of violence perpetrated by armed bands in the middle of the day. It is clear that the Government has its work cut out here in the old Papal province, as it had in Naples when putting down the Camorra. The Etendard says : " Our private advices represent a: having a positive reality the preparations and the drilled enrolments in. Central Italy, under the direction of Kenotti Garibaldi. The Italian Government does not appear, we are assured, to offer the smallest obstacle." The report that Juarez had written a letter to the Pope is confirmed. The President deplores the circumstance, which have led to the diplomatic rupture between hit Government and the Pontiff's, declares that his line o' conduct towards the clergy is the result of pressure which he could not resist ; but adds that, circumstances being now changed, he will gladly receive the bishop whom the Pope sends. The letter concludes with request for the Papal benediction upon Mexico and hex ruler. - The Archbishop of York, thinking that the observatiot in yesterday's Times, that " the good people at the Mansion House were told the other day that the Lords would not even be put to the trouble of a divisiot upon the Suspensory Bill," was founded on a mis conception of his speech, writes to that journal to say that what he stated was that the Lords would not divide on Thursday, but his belief was that they would devote several days to the subject. His Grace meant to say that there would be a division, but not without a prolonged and careful discussion. Taking the elections during the last three years, the balance is decidedly in favour of the Liberal party. They have won eight seats—Aberdeenshire, Devonport (two), Bridgwater, Petersfield, Waterford county, Coventry, and South Leicester ; whilst the Conservatives have won Bridgnorth, Sandwich, Helston, Brecon, Rutland, and Cockermouth. When it is remembered, however, that the counties of Aberdeen, South Leicester, and Waterford were won in the face of all the territorial influence whichthe ['oryparty could bring to bear, it is evident that the Liberal ;sins are more significant than as a mere balance of eight against six. The gains of the Liberals are the more re narkable when contrasted with the victories achieved by he Conservatives from 1859 to 1865, which, despite all Lord Pahnerston's popularity, averaged four seats every ear. THE GOVERNMENT AND MR. EYRE.—The fob ' owing is a copy of a letter sent by Lord Carnarvon to Mr. ',yre, respecting the payment of costs cf any criminal pro ;eedings against the ex-governor of Jamaica.

ROLLS' COURT. (Before Lord Romilly.) HOARE V. WILSON---lIAMPSTEAD-HEATH. It will be recollected that this was a suit, instituted against Sir T. M. Wilson, the lord of the manor, o obtain an order of the Court to prevent the lefendant from carrying on building opera ions on Hampstead-heath, also to prevent the carrying away sand, making pits, detrimental to Jublic safety and the cattle of the commoners ; ind also calling upon him to remove all such building materials, and to make good the ground which had been opened up. The counsel on the ,art of the plaintiff, on the first occasion of the ,nit coming before the court, stated their case, and he case on the part of the lord of the manor (Sir F. M. Wilson) was brought before the court. Mr. Baggally contended that Sir Thomas had lone nothing he was not justified in doing by the aw, and tLat what was required by the parties to the ;uit was altogether opposed to right. He asserted hat there was no right to recreation, to taking Of and, and to rights of common, as the first must Lave sprung up at a comparatively modern period ; tnd with respect to the right of common, if any ;Lich existed, the proper course to pursue was to try :he right at common law. There had been no coin' mon rights exercised, with respect to the grazing of cattle, for many years. The Mastei of the Rolls--Because there was not much grass. Mr. Baggally thought it would not be seriously disputed that there was some grass, and if it was urged that the sand pits were dangerous to cattle on the heath, it mast be shown that the parties had cattle there. El ° thought that the case of the plaintiffs had altogether failed, and that there ought not to be an order made such as was now asked. In the event of hi Lordship, however, deciding against him, he hoped ie would direct a case for issue, and that it should oe clearly set down for argument whether the rights of common were to be enjoyed by the we" lern copyholders of Hampstead as well as the ell' zient ones. The arguments on the part of the defendant (cal' pied the whole of the day. Sir R. Palmer will be heard in reply to-morrov i morning after the unopposed business of the C Oll6 to disposed of.
