Archdeacon Allen, a Broad Churchman; is having a battle royal with the Record. A certain correspon dent of that paper, who signs himself " Nestor,' but who is well known to be an ult ra L ow Church dean, Dr. Law, of Gloucester, has been attacking the Archdeacon, and the Record refused to publish the latter dignitary's reply ; whereupon great anger on the part of the Archdeacon, great abuse on the part of the editor of the Record, who turns out to be a certain Rev. Samuel Wainwright, vicar of Holy Trinity, Micklegate, York, secretary to the Islington Protestant Institute, and a St. Bee's ?man. It is this last fact which has made the Record so bitter against the Archdeacon. Some time ago he published a letter in one of the papers, in which he held up the St. Bee's men to ridicule for their pro found ignorance of matters both secular and religious, and gave a specimen of their answers at the examinations by the bishops' examining chaplains. The Record never forgets nor forgives : so the Archdeacon of Salop is marked for the poisoned arrows of that most profoundly religious and un christian journal THE PRIVY COUNCIL AND THE RITUALISTS. "A Layman" writes to the Daily News, protesting against a rumoured appointment which either is or is about to be made. It is reported that Sir Joseph Napier has been sworn a member of the Privy Council, in order that he may be one of the judges to try the case of Martin v. Mackonochie, which comes on in a few clays. The objection to this appointment is that Sir Joseph has already passed judgment upon the matter at issue, and that as one of the Ritual Commissioners he shewed himself openly the partisan of the Low Church party. " A Lay man" also objects to the presence of the Lord Chancellor, who is a Presbyterian. There is less force in the second objection than in the first. The question to be decided is, what is, not what should be, the law of the English Church. Lord Cairns may be, and no doubt is, utterly opposed to the ritual which it is endeavoured to suppress, and yet come to the conclusion that it is legal in the English Church. Sir Joseph Napier's case is different; he has already announced his deci sion in language that admits of no qualification, and it is therefore a farce for him to sit and hear the arguments. The decision of such a tribunal is not ikely to inspire much confidence or respect. INDIA. The Times Calcutta correspondent understands that the clovernment of India, " acting upon the policy of cautious activity to which it has been driven by events, has ad dressed the home authorities on the subject of some diplo matic representations to Russia regarding the neutralisa tion, not only of Afghanistan, but of Eastern Turkestan." There seems to be very little doubt that this couise is advisable, if not necessary. The Russians have asked Yakoob Beg of Yarkund for permission to establish a cantonment, so as to command the best route from Tur kestan to India. He had previously refused to have any dealings with his dangerous neighbours, and his persistent caution has brought Lim into difficulty. It is reported at Calcutta that his troops have by various circum stances been brought into contact with the Russians, and have been defeated, and that he is now suing for peace. If the Russians, as now seems probable, establish the cantonment at Gumah, on the route to India, it can hardly be deemed other than a direct menace to our empire. Yakoob Beg has asked for our help, and the Indian Government has resolved to give it. The time has come for Russia and England to arrive at an under standing in Central Asia. The new Irrigation Department has commenced the stupendous work of artificially supplying water to a region as large as Europe minus Russia. Plans and surveys are being made, and the funds offered are practically un limited. But the want of competent engineers is a great, and at present an insuperable, obstacle to progress. All the men that the Secretary of State can send might be employed in the Punjab alone, which bears a ratio to the whole empire similar to that of Yorkshire to England. Their scale of pay is one deterrent cause. Then there is red tape, which can accomplish no great work in a reasonable space of time. And yet no duty of civilisation can be of greater importance than the preservation of the vast multitudes of our Indian subjects from the horrors of famine. In Central India not 200,000 acres have been irrigated out of a total area of 123 millions: 11 indostan proper is also much behind. ROME. It is considered certain, says the Liberti, that the Papal Nuncios at Paris and Vienna will each receive the cardi nal's hat at the approaching Consistory. The claims of the Archbishop of Paris are very strong, and there is reason to believe that much imutuice has been put forward on his behalf, but nothing trammires as to his chances of promo tion. His Holiness the Pope enjoys excellent health. The refusal of the Greek Patriarch to accept the invitation to the General Council of the Church has produced a very un favourable impression at Rome. It is known that this refusal carries with it the whole Greek Church. Cardinal Antonelli has published an edict materially reducing the customs and octroi duties. The increasingly important commercial relations between Rome and the rest of Italy render this change, which comes into operation at once, of much importance. Trade with Italy has previously been greatly impeded by treaties in favour of France and Germany. SPAIN. The electoral manifesto of the Olozaga Committee has been well received in Spain. It is, or aims to be, a fusion of the republican and monarchist principles ; it pro nounces for a king, but declares against the supremacy of any one family, and demands the election of the sovereign by universal suffrage. Strenuous efforts are being made to ensure the success of this programme. Manifestoes are distributed in all directions, emissaries have been sent to various parts of the country, and great meetings are being held in the principal towns. The LTherte thinks the adoption of this scheme by an influential party is a very gloomy symptom. Certainly, there is abundant evidence that the different sections are intriguing in all directions. Whatever form of government is henceforth to rule over Spain, it is quite time that it entered upon its duties. CRETE. The petition which the leaders of the revolution in Crete addressed to the Porte, asking for an autonomy under a vassal of Turkey, has not prevented many of them from making unconditional submission. Several of the committee have requested permission to quit the island, and the Porte is said to be disposed to grant it. THREE GENERAL ELECTIONS. The Standard gives statistics of the present and the two last general elections. In 1859 there were 473 Liberal and 309 Conservative candidates ; in 1865, 509 and 411 ; in 1 618 and 443. Com paring 1868 with 1859, we find that the Liberal can didates inoreased by 145, and the Conservative by 44. This scarcely looks like progress on the part of Con ser;ative opinions. At the same time it must be remembered that while superfluous Liberal candi dates imply a predominance of Liberal opinions, this very superfluity is likely to injure the representation of Liberalism. CARRIAGE OF VOTERS. ------ - The man with money and influence must have the advanta.ge in an election struggle, despite Acts of Parliament to the contrary. He is forbidden to pay hire for the conveyance voters to the poll, s ) he borrows of his friends all available traps, and there is as goodly a show of antionated vehicles as 11 nnri n The other evening from eighteen to twento thousand persons assembled in the Agricultural Hall, Islington, to hear Mr. O'Malley, the Conservative candidate for Finsbury. No sooner did Mr. O'Malley come forward than a rush was made upon the plat form. A contemporary states that Mr. O'Malley was obliged to beat a hasty retreat down a flight of temporary stairs into a retiring-room made by partitioning off a portion of the room, and thence into Be,rners-road, followed by several of the committee. A struggle then ensued for possession of the platform. Mr. O'Malley 's friends held possession for some time, displaying party placards in answer to a similar display from the body of the hall • the former, it is unnecessary to say, bearing the words " Vote for O'Malley," and the latter, " Torrens and Lusk for Finsbury." The O'Malle3rites retained possession of the platform for half an hour, when the roughs obtained possession. They demolished everything they could laytheir hands on, destroying the valuable curtains and furniture; they beat back the supporters of Mr. O'Malley with the legs and splinters of broken tables. The unfortu nate O'Malleyites were driven into a corner; a parti tion running the whole width of the hall was torn down, and upwaids of a hundred persons, who had clambered to the top of the partition for safety, had it torn from under their feet, were left clinging to the iron girders of the roof like a crew of sailors in the rigging of a vessel, and had to drop down as well as they could. There being nothing left to destroy, the band of ruffians com menced bonneting those who were unable to get out at' their reach, until they were left completely in tossession of the place. The gas was at l eng th urned off, off, and the building was cleared. N o assistance was rendered by the police, one or two of them who were standing at the entrance stating that _ they were forbidden to enter the building. EMERY IN HIGH QUARTERS. A A curious incident has transpired at ewsbuiY. Great excitement was exhibited by the crowd sur rounding the hustings, who had heard rumours of a compromise. The candidates were M r . Cl emen t (L.), Mr. B. Crawford (L.), and Mr. Figgins (C.) When Mr. Crawford came forward he deliberately. stated, on his honour, on his oath, th a t h e h a d b een offered £BOO if he would leave the other candidates in possession of the field. £3OO had been offered his London agent if he would " see the matter through.". Mr. Clement denies all knowledge of the circum stance, and Mr. Crawford believes his word. A. statement of the matter is to be prepared, and the affair can hardly end here. It is a farce to preach against bribery to poor and needy electors, and then to set them such an example as this. THE MIDDLESEX ELECTION. Mr. Dickens relates a quarrel between two gen tlemen at a supper party given by Mr. Robert Sawyer. The difference between them is so great that at one time it appears not unlikely that blood will be shed ; but when they come to an explanation, each finds out that the other is one of the best fellows in the world, and first in his esteem. Our readers are now familiar with the unparliamentary lan guage which has parsed between Lord Enfield and Mr. Labouchere. It now appears that these gentlemen are likely to forget their quarrel, and to try and walk into Parliament together. The com mittee of the Reform Club acts as mediator, and publishes letters from both candidates. Mr. Labou chere now regrets certain offensive expressions used by him about Lord Enfield, the committee having ascertained from his lordship that he never doubted Mr. Labouchere's word. On the other hand, Lord Enfield says he never called himself " scion of a noble stock," which would be a piece of folly and vulgarity. It is a pity public men cannot quarrel in private. Their quarrels and ill-temper will be remembered when their explanations are forgotten. MR. DRIGIIT TRADUCED. A. statement has been in circulation that when the corn laws were repealed the wages of the workmen of Mr. Bright's firm were reduced. In consequence of that charge a letter was addressed to the workmen, and fourteen men employed by John Bright and Co. during periods varying.from twenty-three to forty five years, state, " with all honesty, that no reduction took place in their wages at that time." Lies crop up so fast at this election that contradicting them is almost as profitable work as stamping out Greek fire, but we will do what we can. "MY HOUSE IS A HOUSE OF pnAyEit." A woman cannot vote. In the absence of all share m political excitement, is there nothing better for her to engage her than frivolous occupations and amusements ? A woman loves to go to church, and. will sit patiently for an hour listening to a sermon, while a man will be goaded almost to madness. It n therefore hard that the consolations of religion should be denied her because the sterner sex is busy about the elections. The Vicar of Windsor intimated last week to the female portion of the congregation, and to non-electors, that they should forego their usual attendance on Sunday even ing, that they might afford room for the electors of the borough. We should like to know what tl e collect, epistle, and gospel, the proper psalms and lessons are for the Sunday before the elections, and whether the correct vestments are of the Tory or Liberal colours. With the vicar of Windsor they would probably be the Tory Colonel Gardner's. This vicar in turning away women from the gate of heaven, and converting the church into a hustings, was as cruel and ungallant as the Prophet Mahomet, who, when asked by an aged woman what her employment would be in heaven, replied that she need not trouble herself, for no old women would be admitted there. THE VICAR OF FROME AND THE ELECTION. The Rev. W. J. E. Bennett some little time ago was so disgusted by the conduct of the Conservatives towards the advanced Iligh Church party, that he declined to have anything further to do with the elections, and took his name off the books at Oxford. At Frome, however, he has not disfranchised himself, and has therefore taken advantage of the fact that the Conservative candidate is the most pliable of men to extract a pledge from him that he will not support any fresh legislation with regard to the ritual or the doctrine or the discipline of the Church. Serjeant Sleigh had previously tried two boroughs as a Radical, and is now at this elec tion trying his second borough as a Conservative. So, Mr. Bennett, disregarding this gentleman's ante cedents, or rather believing that they would enable him to deal with the illustrious Old Bailey advocate the more easily, wrote to him and asked him, inter alia, whether he would give hi s vo t e and influence so that there should be no alteration hi the Book of Common Prayer, or of the rites and ceremonies of the Church. To this question Serjeant Sleigh returned an answer so satisfactory that Mr. Bennett published a kind of pastoral on the subject, announcing that he should cheerfully give his vote for the learned candidate. The serjeant, we presume, reckoned that the Ritual party would bring him more supporters than their opponents ; but it must have been a nice calculation, for Mr. Sheppard and his friends, who are conducting the prosecution against Mr. Bennett, are also Conservatives. The balance of gain and loss must have been something like that which Mr. Grant is said to have made in Marylebone, where he reckoned up the teetotallers against the publicans, and found that the latter would give him the greater number of votes. THE BISHOP OF ELY CONDEMNED. The Archdeacon of Taunton cannot endure any thing like moderation or a temperate way of putting things. He is violent or he is nothing. The Bishop of Ely lately said at the " Ely Diocesan Conference " that he did not consider the separation of Church and State to be the end which Mr. Gladstone had in view. Archdeacon Denison says it is no time for conventionalities, and writes to the Standard: "Now, seeing that, so far from there being any room for doubt that 'separation of Church and State' is 'the aim which Mr. Gladstone has in view,' he has in terms proposed and carried it in the House of Commons. One of two things is clear—either the Bishop of Ely has overlooked this, the leading f ac t o f th e ti me , o r he is of opinion that disestablishment in Ireland can be separated in principle from disestablishment in England. This last is the fatal mistake of some English Churchmen. It amounts in substance to the denial of the national value and necessity of the Reformation. It is a hard thing to see it endorsed by a bishop." The Archdeacon must know that Mr. Gladstone holds the Irish Church to be a satire upon the principle of State Churches in general, and that he does not by his course in the matter intend to attack the principle of Church and State. The Bishop of Ely, being a fair man, accepts this explanation; Arch deacon Denison, being a partisan, will not allow it. JAMAICA " A Woman " writes to the herald to contradict Mr. Buxton's statement, that with the exception of one obnoxious person the Jamaica rioters did not kill a single white man. She says, besides the murder of poor Mr. Hire, there were staying with him four gentlemen (two whites), three of whom were left for dead. This chief servant fled from the house, and was never seen again until her skeleton was found. Mr. Cochrane Sir W. Fitzherbert's bookkeeper, was murdered ' while eating his morning meal. Of the sufferings of the many whites who eleaped, only to die of exposure and starva tion, but an outline has been told. The writer, who appears to have been one of the sufferers, attributes the preservation of the lives of the white population to the " disinterested and heroic action " of Governor Eyre. These who were in Jamaica and those who were at home will always look upon this melancholy affair w ith different eyes. Nothing fresh concerning it can b e elicited now, but t it seems as if the remembrance of wrong cn both sides would be like a pent-up fire in a mine, smothered for a time, but breaking out in its fierceness again and again.
