CHRONICLES and CHARACTERS. By the Hon. ROBERT LYTTON (OWEN MEREDITH). "We are happy to observe that the work before us is no hasty or passing contribution to our poetical literature. The plan of it was conceived many years ago, and its execution has been elaborated, the poet tells us, during seven years of careful think ing. It appeals only to serious, earnest, and discriminating cri ticism, and is worthy of that patient perusal which its author claims as a preliminary to any final judgment. There is no masked atheism hero, no brutal passion veiled under the thin disguise of elaborate scholarship, no curious raking amid the dead and foetid embers of forgotten lusts. In all these respects `Chronicles and Characters ' set a noble example to our younger generation of poets. The author has set himself seriously to improve and cultivate his rare gifts by conscientious study and deliberate carefulness, and he has presented the fruit of them to the world in a series of calm, connected pictures, so arranged as to illustrate one of the noblest conceptions which could possibly occupy a poet's pen."—Macmillan's Magazine: Chapman and Hall, 193, Piccadilly.

Begot" proceeds more rapidly than upon the last occasion, and continues to attract a large share of public attention. Mr. Macdonogh, Q.C., who is ably conducting the case for the defendant, resumed his cross-examination of Mr. Sidney yesterday. The folloi.7ing were the chief points of the evidence. Early in 1864 the witness owed £7,000 or £B,OOO. The defendant knew that he was deeply embar rass Al, and accepted some bills for him. Either in the spring or summer of that year he gave the wit ness the general authority, as he alleged, during an interview in his garden. The defendant had pre viously stated that he would go security for £3,000, and when he gave the authority witness understood that it was limited to £3,000 ; but no amount was mentioned. A number of letters were put into the witness's hands, and among them one with the date written upon it, 15th of August, 1865. He swore that the " 15th of August " was in his handwriting, but warmly insisted that the " 1865 " bad been put to it since the last trial, and he protested against being held responsible for the figures. When writing the defendant's name on bills the witness imitated his handwriting as closely as possible. He wrote one of the two bills now sued on in Charles Bagot's presence. He simulated the defendant's handwriting. If the words " per pro " were on the Lills that would have given notice to the world. Before he went to London he wrote to a hiend to take lodgings for him for a month. During the bedroom scene between Mrs. Hinds and her son, in which she insisted that he should disown the bills, the witness listened at the door, and looked through the keyhole. He afterwards made a memorandum of the transaction, and showed it to the defendant and others. He did not say at the last trial that he had made memo randa. Ile was not asked the question then. He had written Hinds's name for about £1,600 on bills, and the defendant's name up to £2,578 before be went away. In February, 1866, he had a pistol, which he had purchased two years before, and said he felt inclined to commit suicide in consequence of an offensive letter which he had received from Charles Bagot about money. One of the bills he had put Hinds's name on (Granly's) was coming due ou the Saturday before he left the country. He wrote the name " Henry Hinds" on that bill, but the words " New Grove, Granard," were not in his handwriting, and were not on it when he passed it to Harris. He wrote the name of James Blake, his nephew, on bills for £BOO. Hinds him self accepted three bills for him. He did not burn •any of defendant's bills in Hinds's presence. There was no discussion as to the bills being forgeries until it was said that Hinds so stated, but he never stated so to witness. Hinds told his mother in the bedroom scene that he never signed bills for the witness, but, his sister contra dicted him. Witness went to Ryan, the detective police-officer, and asked how a warrant for arrest for felony would be executed in England. His ob ject was to hear if there was a warrant for his own arrest. Ryan explained to him in answer to the question, and he then knew that there was no warrant out against him, and that Bernard Bagot was stating what was false. He signed about 70 bills in the defendant's name between May, 1865, and August, 1866, about a dozen in Hind's name be tween March and August, 1866, and about the same number in James Blake's name. He never admitted in the presence of Mrs. C. Begot, Bernard Bagot, or thedefendant, that he had committed a forgery. The " death warrant" letter, dated the 19th of August, 1866 (stating that defendant's bills were forgeries), was all in his handwriting. He copied that letter, and Bernard and he posted it. Bernard dropped it into the post along with another which he forced the witness to write to James Blake to the same effect. Witness wrote letters to the postmaster at Ballymoe by Bernard's desire, and would not swear that he did not post it in London, but thought he left it with his servant to post. On that Sunday Charles Bagot showed him a polio: man, and he thought that Henry Hinds was in earnest. On Saturday night Bernard got into a passion, and said that the witness should write the letter to John, and on his refusing to do so took up his hat and ran to the door, saying he would bring in a police man and hand the witness over to him. At last Bernard yielded, and said he would " let him off" that night if he promised to go to Bargen next day. He had been living on port wine since the previous Tuesday. He had hardly eaten anything, and drank about two bottles of port each day. Ilis clothes bad not been off from four o'clock on Wed nesday morning until he went away on Sunday evening. O❑ re-examination Mr. Butt, Q.C., sought to prove that Bernard Begot used threats to the witness on Friday evening to make hien write the letter, and also that the witness corresponded with Charles Bagot after he went to London. Mr. M'Donogh objected to the production of the letters, and the Court rejected them. Mr. Daniel Collins, one of the defendant's attorneys, was called for the plaintiff to prove that he made copies of letters in the house of Mr. Wilson, the defendant's junior counsel, and Mr. Butt complained that informa tion had been extracted from strictly private letters which Mr. Sidney had been obliged to fur nish to the benchers. Mr. Findlater and Mr. Bloomfield, solicitors, were examined in corrobora tion of Sidney's evidence as to the conversation about his affairs. Mr. Butt then applied to have Mr. Wilson examined. That gentleman expressed his willingness, but asked for liberty to consult his senior counsel. Mr. Macdonogh, after consulta tion, said that, although the course was unprece dented, yet, jealous for the honour of the Bar, and lest the interests of his client should suffer, he ad vised Mr. Wilson to tender himself for examination. Mr. Wilson accordingly entered the witness-box, and deposed that he got the book of letters from a solicitor, to make such extracts as he thought fit, and, after consulting Mr. Heron, Q.C., he made use of it. He was pressed to tell who the attorney was, and declined to do so until required by the Court. He then stated that he got the book from Mr. Thomas M'Kenna. The trial was again ad journed. On the last occasion also a witness was called from among the defendant's senior counsel. Evening. In the head police-office to-day Mr. Curran ad dressed the magistrates for the defendants. Con stable .82 E was examined, and contradicted the evidence given by the military. He swore that Ruddock did not assault Colonel Stanley ; that he and Ruddock gave their numbers when asked ; and that he was violently assaulted and his watch snatched from him in the barracks. On cross examination, he admitted that he had been reduced from the rank of acting sergeant, but denied that he was violent in the barracks and used the lan guage deposed to. After other witnesses were examined, the magistrates suggested that the case ought to be settled, and it was adjourned until to-morrow to afford an oprortunity for consulta tion.

EV, s 1 - -.._... 1.6 Y 1 - - 2 'I ' tgaur mit :- ..,A I o : : ..,- i' 1 / The decision of the committee appointo totiotiEiclietl. tion against the r e t urn o f M r . J. W. Mire; the Conserva tive candidate, for the seat rendered vacant by the resignation of Sir Morton Peto, was awaited with great interest in Bristol. From one o'clock, at which hour it was supposed the result of the deliberations of the commit tee would ben Lade known, large crowds assembled in front of the Commercial Rooms and thevarious newspaper offices in, anxious expectation of the telegram which would decide whether the petitioners had succeeded or failed in making out their case. The general impression among legal men appeared to be that, although there was abundant evidence of bribery, the necessary proof of such undue practices had not been made as regarded the recognised agents of the sitting member. Politicians of all shades ad 'rated that the exhibition made by Dr. Robertson and Mr. N. Alsop, two of the witnesses caned on behalf of Mr. Miles, was anything but creditable, and it was stated that the petitioners might have strengthened their case had they ventured to call Mr. D. Parsley, whose name was mixed up with many of the transactions which formed the subject of complaint by the Liberals, and who, having been served by them with a Speaker's war: rant, was in attendance, and ready to be examined. About 2.45 p.m. a telegram was received at the Commer cial Rooms with the intelligence that Mr. Miles was unseated. The announcement was treated with mingled cheers and hisses by the large number of Liberals and Conservatives who were present. The Liberals, who were satisfied with one member for nearly two years during the financial embarrassments of Sir MortoiN Peto, can hardly wish to have a contest for 4 seat the occupancy of which would not exceed a mouth, and the Conservatives profess the desire that the Next appeal should be made to the enlarged constituency'under the Reform Bill of 1867. Mr. Miles and his opponent at the late election, Mr. S. Morley, are now both placed in the unfortunate position of members who have lost their seats—the one for Bristol and the other for Nottingham— through the indiscreet zeal of their agents. The Liberal Association held a meeting on Thursday evening, at which it was to be proposed that Mr. Morley should be brought forward as a candidate in the event of a writ being issued. Mr. Morley has already issued an address to the electors. After stating that the committee have declared the recent election to be void, he again offers himself as a candidata for the representation of the city. He has little to add, and nothing to withdraw, in the statements which he has so recently made of his political principles. \ 7 .."4 THE GRANT TO LADY DARLING. Some further correspondence respecting the grant pro. posed to be made by the Government of Victoria to Lady Darling was published on Thursday morning. On the 14th of May Sir Charles Darling addressed a letter to the Colonial Secretary, in which he emphatically declared that he never conceived the idea of obtaining the grant by the relinquishment of the service until it was suggested to his mind by the perusal of Mr. Adderley's letter of the 12th of October, 1866. Under the circum stances Sir Charles asked permission to withdraw his " relinquishment of any expectations connected with the service," and intimated his readiness to abide by the result of the proceedings in the Victorian Legislature if the Duke of Buckingham considered him bound by the election he had already made. Replying to this letter on the 19th May, Mr. Adderley, the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, pointed out that such a with. drawal, if permitted, would replace Sir Charles in the posi. tion of an officer who had never left the service, and had been continuously subject to its rules ; and it would be the Duke of Buckingham's duty to consider any questions Sir Charles might raise, and to deal with them according to the interests of the public service and the regulations appli. cable to them. On the 21st May Sir Charles formally asked permission to withdraw his relinquishment from the service on the ground that it had been made under misapprehension of facts, and this permission was accorded. In a subsequent letter from the Colonial. Office, Sir Charles was informed that it would be necessary for him to address a letter to the Colonial Secretary fur transmission to the Government of Victoria, expressing his inability, under the circumstances, to accept, either himself or by Lady Darling, the proposed grant of £20,000, and this sur gestion was also acceded to. GREAT FIRE ON YORKSHIRE MOORS. During tue past week a fire of almost nnpreceaentea extent has occurred on the Cleveland Hills, in North Yorkshire. It was occasioned by the sparks from the engine running along the Rosedale branch line, a mineral railway in oonnection with the North Yorkshire and Cleveland, and which traverses the moors for a con siderable distance, and originated in Ferndale. It com menced on Wednesday morning, and burnt uninter ruptedly, meeting occasionally only with temporary checks in the shape of roads, begg, streams, and tracts of closely-eaten herbage, until Monday morning, when heavy rains having fallen, its further progress was happily retarded. It will doubtless continuo to smoulder for a week or two yet, unless heavy rains intervene to quench it. It ran along the moors with amazing rapidity, enclosing them in a chain of fire. The extent of ground covered by the fire is about twenty-four square miles, a large tract of land now entirely denuded of vegetation. It comprised the sheep tracts of many valuable farms, now rendered worthless for pasturage. Numbers of sheep have beeu badly burnt and injured, though, as soon as possible on the origin of the fire, the moors were scoured and all stocks re moved to places of safety. Thousands of birds have been destroyed, and the young grouse just now about taking to the wing have been burnt. Large numbers of rabbits and other animals have also perished. Hundreds of men were employed in trenching and tryirg to beat out the fire in various directions, and it was well nigh got under, but the men were exhaused on Friday with working in the half suffocating smoke, and the fire speedily regained its force, and it was only by the heavy showers which recently fell that its destructive course was permanently arrested. The estates iraversed are those of Lord Feversham, Lord Boyne and Lord De L'lsle and Dudley. The Earl of Derby has subscribed £5OO towards the restoration of Chester Cathedral. The death is announced of Sir John Hy. Lowther, Bart., of Swillington Hall. Sir John was elect3d for York in 1835, and sat for Unit city for many years. He was a Conservative, and an attached member of the Church. At the time of his death he was in his 75th year. Some large straw stacks and other agricultural property, together with thrashing and other machinery, at the model farm of Bah°lmes, in Holderness, belonging to Mr. W. Marshall, M.P. for Cumberland, and brother of the Messrs. Marshall, of Leeds, have been destroyed by a great fire. The amount of damage is estimated at £2,000, but it is at least partly covered by insurance. A sad affair has occurred at Fridaythorpe, near Driffield, Yorkshire. Two young boys, nine and fourteen years of age respectively, sons of a gentleman residing near Market Weighton,were visiting, with an uncle, Mr. Mitchel. son, farmer. They were left alone a few minutes, during which time the younger Mitchelson got hold of a loaded gun which exploded and shot his brother dead. AERONAUTICAL EXHIBITION AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE.—The first exhibition of the Aeronautical Society of Great Britain, preparatory to an exhibition upon a larger scale in 1869, commenced on Thursday at the Crystal Palace, but the models and objects were not arranged sufficiently to enable the visitor to form a very dear idea of their value or purport. MR. PASSAU AT KING'S COLLEGE.—On Thursday %fternoon Mr. Rassam made his first public appear- Ince since his arrival in England from Abyssinia at the distribution of prizes at King's College, Lon ion, of which he was formerly a student. The Rev. G-. F. Maclear, 8.D., the head master, amidst unbounded -,pplause, proposed that his attendance should be wel lomed. In reply, Mr. Rassam said : "I am much qappier to-day than I was in chains * at Magdala. am much obliged to you for your kindly welcome." the Bishop of London presided at the annual distribu ,ion of prizes for the school. He complimented the .tudents on their Greek, remarking that although he had oeen for a long time the tutor of a college (Balliol) and the lead master of a great school (Rugby), he had never - nown Aristophanes better done. He also complimented he head master and the authorities upon the fact that hey had never wanted the aid of commissioners—royal or )therwise—to induce them to keep pace with the spirit of the age.
