GAB RIEL, (Established 1815.) London 56, Harley-street, Cavendish-square, W. 64, Ludgate-hill, E.C., Liverpool 134, Duke-street, and Brighton BB, North-street, ATTENDANCE DAILY. THE MAJORITY OF THE MARQUIS OF BUTE. (From the Scotsman.) The rejoicings in Bute in honour of the majority of the-Maxquis of jlitexommenced ottFridaawere resumed on Saturday, and from early morning till late in the evening there was a continual succession of festivities. The weather was brilliantly fine, and the proceedings were entirely s uccessful. About 'half-past nine o'clock the Bute tenantry, numbering about 120, assembled on horseback at the village of Killiecroy, and, under the superintendence of Mr. Henry .Stuart, Mr. C. G. Shaw, and Mr. Baxter, were marshalled in processional order. They then marched to Mountstuart House, passing through a grand triumphal arch of flowers and evergreens which had been erected at the foot of the avenue. On their arrival in front of Mountstuart, they formed square, in the centre of which Lord Bate's carriage was drawn up. About ten o'clock the Marquis of Bute appeared at the front door of the house, and was received with loud cheers by the assegibled farmers. His lordship entered his car riage, which was approached by Mr. Charles Dun can, president of the Bute Farmers' Society, who read a congratulatory address from the Bute tenantry. The MARQUIS, in accepting the address, said— Gentlemen, I receive from you with a pleasure which is not formal, but sincere, the address which you have just offered me, and I rejoice to know that the feelings which it expresses are those with which you really regard me. I feel towards this island all the proud affection which has for centuries bound my fathers to its soil, and I know how many there are among you whose attachment to it is not less hereditary than my own, and I am glad to feel that our family and it have been from generation to generation connected together. I trust and be lieve that the bond is one which it will never be my doing to weaken or destroy. On the contrary, be lieve me that it is my desire, by following the ex ample of my father and mother which you set before me, to knit it closer and closer. Three cheers having been given for the noble lord, his carriage drove off, escorted by the mounted farmers. The procession arrived at Millhole, the boundary of the burgh of Rothesay, at 11.15, and the noble lord was there received by the provost, magistrates, and council of Rothesay, and detach ments of volunteers. A procession was then formed, and proceeded at a slow. pace along the beautiful road which skirts the bay, entering the town by Bishop-street, and as it passed the various coigns of vantage where crowds of people had taken up a position, the marquis was greeted with loud cheers. The procession arrived shortly after 12 o'clock at Victoria Hall, where the freedom of the burgh was presented to the Marquis of Bute at a banquet. In the afternoon there was a distribution of £2OO among the poor people of the town, the schools were entertained to fruit and cake at Lord Bute's expense, and the volunteers were regaled in the Bute Hotel. An address from the Commissioners of Supply of the county of Bute was presented to his lordship in Mountstuart House during the afternoon, and briefly acknowledged. About four o'clock the marquis entertained about five hundred of the county gentlemen, tenantry, and chief inhabitants of Bute to a grand banquet, in a splendid pavilion erected for the purpose in front of Alountstuart Housr. The lion. GEORGE FREDERICK BOYLE, Wll3 was received with .oud and prolonged cheers, pro posed " The Marquis of Bute." (Loud cheer ing.) Ile said—That name, gentlemen, is associated in our minds with the past, with the present, and with the future. With the past because it brings to our memory recollections of his revered father—the friend of his tenants, the treasurer of the poor, the banker of the unfortu nate. (Loud cheers.) That expression will recall to the recollection of some of you his extremekind ness of heart to certain less affluent depositors—it will recall to your recollection that he rekindled the fire on many a humble hearth, and restored joy and energy to many a life. (Cheers.) As to the pre sent, I would remind you that we are now drinking the health of one who, in the localities with which he is connected, potently touches three of the greatest interests of the country--agriculture, manufacture, and the mercantile interests. (Cheers.) As to the agricultural interest, it is needless fur me to remind you of his lordship's large estates in Bute, Ayrshire, and Galloway ; and as to the manu facturing interest, I need scarcely remind you of the very intimate connection of the house of Bute with the manufactures of Rothesay, which were the precursors of so much of the manufacturing prospe rity of Scotland. (Cheers.) Of his connection with the mercantile interest, I will only remind you of those great docks at Cardiff, which recall to our recollection the days of ancient Venice, where high and ancient nobles had the most personal and intimate associations with the mercantile prosperity of the great republic. (Cheers.) Having glanced at the material interests associated with the name of the Marquis of Bute, I would say one single word in reference to the scat which he will have in the Senate of this nation. It will be in your recollection that his an cestor filled the highest and first place in the Legis lature as Minister of the Crown—(cheers)—and, gentlemen, I am sure that I only express the hope that, without necessarily treading in the footsteps of his ancestor, he will at least follow him in taking a leading place in the deliberations of the nation. (Loud cheers.) Some of you may be inclined to say to me, " You have dwelt upon what is material in his position—you have dwelt on what is social and political, but you have said nothing about his per sonal endowments." Now there are two reasons why I have not done so : the first is, because of his pre sence amongst us to-day ; and the second is, be cause of 'the modesty which has been so singularly characteristic of him, and which I iun t eltituld to be the first presage of ,:thQ,:nbility with which he Fill 0., frictrastirittitslied position. (Cheers.) The iaiver that the foundations of a building are made the sounder and higher is the superstructure. (Re newed cheers.) 'We are now at the close of a day which I am sure will never be banished from our recollection. It has been marked ou the part of our noble host by an act of hearty benevolence re ferred to in the .Victoria This day has been marked by unselfish enjoyment, having its source in the prosperity of another—such unsel fish enjoyment having its roots in all that is highest and finest and noblest in human nature. (Cheers.) And now one parting word as to PUICE.... ld. STAMPED 51. the future.. Be yours, my lord, a distin guished place in the councils of the nation, be yours the respect and amity of an ancient royal burgh ; and at the close of a long and prosperous and an honoured life may your name be embalmed in the affections and traditions of a grateful tenantry. (Loud cheers.) The Marquis of BUTE, who was received with the most enthusiastic cheering—the whole company rising to their feet and waving their handkerchiefs —in reply, said : Your kindness has already given me to-day more than one opportunity of express ing to you with how much feeling it is that I re ceive from you all the signs of attachment which you are- good enough to afford me ; therefore I will not say much to you now. There is nothing I have to say. I can only thank you very warmly for the way in which you have just drunk my health, and I hope that this occasion will only be the first of many acts of kindness which will pass between us hereafter--(cheers) —a series of acts of kindness which I am privileged to know are a tradi tion here now from my father. I can only hope that by endeavouring to follow him whom you have set before me as an example, I may some day or other be considered by you to have earned for myself the good feeling which you give me now for the sake of those who are gone. (Loud cheers.) There was a grand display of fireworks on the lawn after dark. The effect of the fireworks, which were prepared at great expense by Mr. Barlow, of Glasgow, was very grand. A RCHIEPISCoRi L A R17'1131E2 IC. (From the Examiner.) Archbishops Trench and Beresford, like certain seaside forts, have been left us as legacies by Lord Palmerston. That distinguished Minister did many good things in his day, but he likewise did some very unwise ones. He made some excellent appointments in the English Church; but from the fatality which seems to rest upon all unreal and unreasonable institutions he could not escape when he came to fill up vacancies in the anti-Irish archiepiscopate. Aristocratic himself in his lean ings, he understood Ireland too well to make over again the mistake cf nominating philosophers like Dr. Whately or fanatics like Dr. M'Ghee. He knew that the former could never obtain either a popular following or a r opular hearing, even from his own ptivileged sect ; and he knew that the zeal of men like the latter could only serve to make the seething . cauldron of religious animosity boil over. Ile thought his first duty was to keep the peace,—at least not to run the risk of a breach of it in Ireland ; he therefore refused to allow the formation of volunteer corps, thinking that their bl I nk cartridge practice might lead to bloo:lshed ; and he therefore resolved to dispense Church patronage solely with a view to political interests, for which alone he regarded it, in a country like Ireland, as capable of any use. The family of Beresford had had the primacy for a possession for forty years ; and possession is nine points of the law where equity is out of the question. The house of Curragnmore, time out of mind, had never beet, without rich dioceses as part of its means of noble livelihood. Lord Palmerston was a gentle man, and so, when the Most Rev. Lord John Beresford died, he thought the best thing he could do was to make the Rev. Marcus Beresford Arch hishop of Armagh. The mitre of Dublin soon afterwards fell into his hands, and, by way of being consistent and impartial, he bestowed it on the scholarly son of the house of Trench, whose heredi tary skill in appropriating episcopal " fat things," and capitular " wines upon the lees well refined,' , had hardly been outshone by that of the Bourkes, or even of the Bere , fot ds. The Establishment in Ireland, as Sir Roundell Palmer reminds us, was Dart and parcel of " the sword-in-baud lantation " begun by the Tudors and finished by the Stuarts. Its richest prizes and most splendid emoluments had been kept for generations among the heirlooms of the great families. They said they had a right to them—at least a better right than anybody else ; and, while they are allowed to last, we do not distinctly see what other use there is for then. Like the costly and massive fortifications already referred to, they looked the thing admirably—these archiepiscopal thrones of Dublin and Armagh ; and seemed admirably manned withal, so long as there was no enemy in sight. But how do they stand their first attack ? Do those in command know what to do or which way to fire ? Within the last few days mitred manifestoes have been put forth by the most reverend authorities in these be leaguered places, inspired apparently by the Chinese hope of frightening away assailants by holding up pictures of all that is fierce and formidable. They do not exactly say that they are more unmet ous than the besiegers ; but they go as near to it as long-sleeved logic will allow, by roundly asserting that, as their flags and uniforms are the same as those of a great army beyond the sea, they ought to be treated with as much respect, and regarded with as much fear, as if all their religious relations at a distance were actually within the walls. Arch bishop Trench appeals to history, and tries to ac count for the smallness of his available force by a series of stories founded on fact, bit very ill founded thereon. He would have us believe that Anglicanism, as preached by the freebooter cap tains of Elizabeth and James 1., was fast becoming a prevalent and popular faith, when in a fit of desperation, treacherously and unprovokedly, the Catholic population rose on their benignant con verters and swept them in 1641, for the most part, into the sea. What Cromwell did to repair the mischief soon afterwards, and how the penal laws prolonged the hope that, by dint of pitiless cruelty and brutalising oppression, religious disaffection would be at length stamped out in the land, the most reverend father in God of the Dublin garri son does not say. He has taken care to put that down in what the Dutch used to call " The Forget Book." But it is not forgotten. The injured, in sulted, persecuted, and plundered people have grown and multiplied in Egypt. That they ought not to have done so Archbishop Trench makes out clearly to his own satisfaction. Sectarian ascend ancy laughed for glee when Drogheda ,And Wex ford fell; it shouted for joy on the bloody fields of Aughrim and the Boyne ; it chuckled at the cheat practised in the treaty of Limerick ; and sipped its ecclesiastical claret in sanguine idleness during the whole of the eighteenth century. As its plethoric limbs grew numb, it let slip some of the cords wherewith recusancy and nonconformity were bound ; and these, intoxicated will their new liberty, and impatient at what was still withheld, broke out in 1798 in United Irishism. Presby terians and Catholics were once more put down, and the fears of ascendancy laid to rest by the so called Act of Union, which declared the un-national Establishment in Ireland to be henceforth' part and parcel of the national Establishment in Eng land. On this miserable make-believe of a guaran tee, which does and can guarantee nothing that is false in fact and repugnant to justice and reason, the planter Church has relied from that day to this; and Archbishop Trench is unwise enough to think that its invocation will deter Parliament from dealing with the subject. Archbishop Beres ford is hardier still in his angry assertions. He plunges into statistics as blindly as his metropolitan brother takes a header into history. In astound ing defiance of the notorious figures of the case, the parliamentary successor of St. Patrick asserts that, if to the minority of Churchmen in England we add the insignificant minority of Churchmen in Ireland, the two minorities will outnumber the demonstrable majority on this side the Channel, and the obvious and overwhelming majority on the other. This is archiepiscopal arithinetic—tlx algebra, we presume, of the orthodox astronomy that insisted on Galileo denying that the earth went round the sun. This event, which, barring accidents, is to 'be pulled off 6n the 17th November, is already exciting an immense Amount of speculation. Our aquatic correspondent, writing from Putney, states that though Kelly's backers are sanguine as to the success of their man, they do not for a moment shut their eyes to the fact that Randford's style of doing his work in the Thames Regatta proved him to be an opponent of no mean order. Whatever may be the result of this particular race, it is admitted that the Northerner is des tined, unless he deteriorates in some unaccountable manner, to occupy a foremost place in the estimation of rowing men. Even those who had money on against him when he made his appearance on the Thames were com pelled to appreciate, and in several instances openly to admire, his performance. It is no secret that neither of the men intend to spare themselves in training for the important event, and who ever is fortunate enough to be between Putney and Mort lake on the afternoon fixed for its decision will have an opportunity of witnessing the perfection to which preparation for an aquatic struggle of such mag nitude may be brought, and will probably see one of the most fiercely - contested matches ever known on the Thames. The Londoner, who at the time of the Thames Regatta was rather out of sorts, appears now to be in good health. Every arrangement it is understood will be made and strictly carried out at the forthcoming race to preclude any of those " difficulties " which have of late spoilt so many of the best events on the river, THE WANING POWER OF NAPOLEON. -O. ...-.----.- Speaking of the danger of war the Pall than Gazette says that its being bred in France is the clearest circumstance in the whole imbroglio. That it is created by the Emperor himself is the belief of almost everybody who believes in it at all. And so it may be. And yet it is possible enough that he is preparing unwillingly for a war which, though it may revivify the fast-fading hopes of his dynasty, may also ruin them in one campaign. If it be true that the Emperor, seeing himself more and more isolated as a sovereign amongst sovereigns, and as a monarch amongst his people, listens within anxious and yielding mind to the plans of ambitious soldiers who are always for " striking a blow," then what the Emperor is doing is very natural, but not very noble, or likely to accomplish more than the post ponement for a little while of the inevitable day when another break will be made in that " dynasty" of his. All —but the enfeebled mind (we will not answer for that) — the conditions which might excite him to such a course are present in enormous force. That he lives more and more in isolation, that his good " cousins " throughout Europe and many of his subjects at home are dropping away from him, is one of the most natural things in exist ence. The leaf that falls from the tree to-day, and cannot be stayed, is not more strange a sight than the waning power of a ruler like Napoleon 111. Personal Government is a splendid undertaking ; but there is a certain law of nature which makes it unstable always, and which at least leaves nothing so obvious about it as that it must soon come to an end. " Napoleon is France " may be a pretty boast when Napoleon is forty, when time has not yet revealed the cost of the pedestal on which he stands, when everybody agrees to postpone, as something too remote to affect the conduct of the hour, the momentous question, What will happen when Napo leon isn't France? Personal government might be the most perfect thing on earth, if wisdom and benevolence could prolong a ruler's life and sustain his faculties under the weight of laborious years ; as it is, the most excellent sovereign of tlit kind has to resign after a little while, and he tmore completely has been the government the more probable it is that after him will be the geluge. THE METROPOLITAN EXTENSION RAILWAY. •, vl ~ ~ - I 1 On Tuesday morning a select party or gentlemen went for a trial trip on what is called the Metropolitan Exten sion Railway, being, in fact, an extension of that admi rably-convenient line which was originally-known as "The Underground," but the more euphonious and in every way better name of which is " The Metropolitan." The new portion traversed by Tuesday's party in perfect ease and comfort commences at Praed street, Paddington, at a junction •between the existing Edgware - road and Bishop's - road stations, passes through Paddington proper, crosses the Uxbridge-road, •,• skirts Kensington Gardens, looks in at Bayswater, touches at Notting-hill and Kensington, and has • its present termination in the Gloucester-road, in a district which was once vulgarly Old Brompton, • more genteelly Earl's-court, but which, we believe, has now been absorbed in the all-absorbing, South Kensington. The Metropolitan Extension boasts of • five stations. Corning westward, the first is at Paddington, immediately facing the Great Western Hotel, with which establish ment it is connected by two subways. The second is at Bayswater, in the Queen's-road, just south o f th e well known tavern the Royal Oak. Th e thi r d i s a t Netting hill Gate, in the Uxbridge-road, a few yards east of where the old gate used to stand, and close by Pembridge-crescent. The fourth is in Kensington High-street, almost immediately facing the Ken sington Vestry Hall ; and the fifth is in Gloucester road, Old Brompton, lying between Hereford-square on the one side, and the enormous " terraces " and "gardens " and "places" which attempt to arrogate to themselves a factitious importance by tacking on " Queen's Gate, Hyde Park " to their otherwise insignificant names. All these stations are capital specimens of simple and tasteful archi tectural decoration. The platforms, which are all 300 ft. long (with the exception of that in Gloucester road, which is 400 ft.), are approached from an elegant balcony, running crosswise, with staircases descending to the up and down sides respectively, while the arrangements for ladies' rooms, lavatories, &c., are decidedly superior to those found on much more preten tious lines. The length of the new extension railway, which has two lines of rails on the narrow gauge principle, is from end to end—that is to say, from the junction with the main line at Praed-street to the terminus at Gloucester-road —about two miles and a half. It is intended to carry it on as far as Alfred-place, opposite the South Kensington Museum, a third of a mile farther, where it will join the Metropolitan District line, extending thence to Palace-yard, and finally intended to pass along the embankment to Cannon-street. This is, however, looking some time ahead. The line traversed on Tuesday, and which will be open for public traffic on the Ist proximo, has easy curves throughout, the sharpest being one furlong radius upon leaving the main line. The traffic will commence on the Ist of Octo ber. It is intended to run ninety trains each way throughout the day, at intervals of from six to eight minutes, and it is calculated that the entire distance between Gloucester-road, Earl's-court, and Moorgate street will be traversed in thirty-three minutes. At all the stations a refreshment-room is provided, under the management of Messrs. Spiers and Pond, the only con tractors bold enough to attempt to slay the dragons of Mugby-junctionism and conventionality, which have so long been the bane of railway travellers. It is long since the public have had such a boon as the opening of the Metropolitan Extension Railway will prove to them. Three men were killed by the falling of the wall of sin old houso whiet was. being taken down in Belfast on Monday. Others wore injured. GREAT YARMOUTH.—At the North Norfolk re vising barrister's court, at Great Yarmouth, a lengthened argument took place with reference to an objection made by the Liberals against 500 Conservative voters of Yar mouth, on the ground that being still de facto electors of that borough (which will not be disfranchised until the close of the present Parliament) they could not be placed on the register for North Norfolk for 18G8-9. The bar rister (Dr. Abdy) took time to consider his decision. SERIOUS ACCIDENT AT BRIGHTON.—A very serious accident happened a few days since at 2, Regency- square, where M. Pericles Zarifi, a Greek gentleman, was visiting some friends. While he was in the balcony the woodwork forming the front of the structure suddenly gave way in the centre, and the unfortunate gentleman fell headlong to the pavement. By the fall be sustained a severe lacerated wound at the top of the forehead, a wound of the cheek, and abrasions of the altin over the arms and legs, but fortunately no bones were broken, and he is now in a fair way of recovery. —brig/don Examiner. THE DEAN OF ELY ON THE Cntuten.—The Dean of Ely preached a sermon at the parish church, Kendal, on Sunday last, advocating, at the request of the bishop of the diocese, the claims of the Church Duildini; Fund of the Diocesan Society. Towards the conclusion he spoke as follows :—" It would be wrong in me within this place to introduce any political sentiments, but I feel bouud to say, while enforcing on you the claims of this society, that the signs of the times clearly indicate that members of the Church of England will have to do much more than they have hitherto done for their Church. Whether it may have been from indifference, or from too much reliance upon what has been done for them by those who have gone before us, it is quite clear that the Church will before long have to rely far more on herself than she has yet done. The Church has hitherto been sheltered under the protection esta. blished for it in formei days, but by the aid of these societies, and the devotion of the people to the main. teuance and the protection of the Church, she will be prepared to exist without such support, dependent Quiz anon the eternal MUCH of her Gnat thed..l. ~ .'i> ~ ►/iios 7 ,-// y//-st//,4 .1 I . • • , r t.' • • ts 4 • c-a- 13 3 c/ • Pp) ••"•,•4•7_ ;t • -• ' • .1-strz 1 11. 1 " =/'' • / Ili _ cs .. ? te jo 10' nßare• 6113 ?~if~ j "/ ;Q - 3 /./ 2, NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF "CASTE."
