IfseggiaO-IL-01, Miss RoTHSCRILD.—On Wed=

state an cerenoey, in the &woe's new namden at
Hyde Park-corner, to Baron Ferdinand tie Rothsehild,
the second son of Baron An,elm de Rothschild, the
chief of the greet rcentnercal and financial aristocracy
of Vienna. Maenifieence marked every stage oiL
igeost futive occasion. The mansion, which in the
splondotir and r;chness of it, lateensl arraneemeata has
few equals in England, was specially decorated. The
guests began to ertive at fit.* o'clock. &cidee the
member,' of the faindy present were—the Amities
Ambassador and the Conntess Apponei, the Freer*
Ambeseador, the Duke turd Duchess of Ehrheriand, the

Doke mei plushest, of Wellingeon,the Marquis of Handy,
the Marquis of Conyoghain, the Marchioness of Mite-
bury, and other di tingnial ad personeges. Shortly ett.
six o'clock, the gueet, havrig as ambled in the ball-
room, Dr. Adler, the Chief Rabbi, assis•ed by Dr.
Kaliech and Mr Green, prripivert to perform the
ceremony according to the ancient rights of the Jewish
religion. A velvet canopy, sunpotted at the four
owners by the bridegrooms garcon, d'howense, was
carried to the upoor ei.cl iif the bell-room. The bride.
groom, Boron Ferdinand, was thee leti in by his nearest
orals relatives and plead under the canopy. Tne brae,
who till then had remained in her own apartment, now
dtecended to the LIM-mom, •ttended by ro less thou
fourteen btidesteairis, st/ired in pink and white. T •
i ming toiler, who thua shone in fair array behind the

Annie de Roth child, die ilenteh de Rothschild, Kim
Alice de Rottachild, Mu Emma de Rothschild, and
the MLetss Margaret, Adelaide, o:eoreina, and Bettina
de Roth-child. At the door of the ball-room the bre. 0,
who cote a dress of white lace, was met by her rancher,
who, atteieted by her brideemehis, corn eletely enveloped
her whole figure in a rich veil, which reached to dm
ground. She was then tel into the ball room with the
tame ceremony is the bridegroom, and pl..oed with hint
uuder the canopy. All the gentlemen guearts of the
Hebrew faith having put on their hate, and the Chief
RArbi having pronounced a brief exhort.tion to the
betrothed, the service was commenced in Hebrew.
Like mo-t of the ceremonials of the Hebrew and Greek
C .nrches, it was very rapidly uttered. The Brat por
two having been cotclutied, the bride and bridereem
drank a crop of wine and water, and Baron Ferdinendo
taunt the rug, pliced it on the bride's fin;er, repeating
slowly and distinctly in Hebrew, " Behold. then
art betrothed unto me with thin ring, soutane
to the rites of Moue and Israel.' The marriage
contract was then read and prayers resumed. Al the
conclusion of these the newly-married 'merle again
drank e glees of wine between them, and, the glass
being placed on the ground empty, the btidegroom
crashed it with his foot, all hie relatives and friends
wiehing aloud at the Berne moment that the userriaire
might be happy, and the bride and bridegroom as irre-
vocahly joined as the piece of glass were for ever
supdered. At the ooneladon of the oeremony the gem*
adjourned to the banqueting-room, where a sumptoons
entertainment was held. The health of ''The bride
and bridegroom" was proposed with much feeling by
Mr. Disreeli ; "The Foreign Guests," by the Duke of
Somerset, and that of "The Bridesmaids," In most
felicitomi terms by the Lord Chief Justice of England.
Appropriate replies were made by the bridegroom, by
B,ron James de Ret6child on behalf of the foreign
guests, by Baron Lionel, as host, for the father and
in-ether of the bride, by Baron Nathaniel for the father
of the bridegroom, and by Mr. Clhorne for the brides-
maids. Later in the evening the Baroness gave a ball,
which was attended by his Royal Highness the Dab*
of Cambridge, the Duchess d'eamele, and by aU the
leading member. of the aristocracy and fashion.

IL —Psitusalimr—the HOolle Of COMMOIIII At all
events—reateeembled on Thursday, but the Tunes
declares the session practically at an end. The Select
Committee has met for inquiry into Mr. Wilde's retire-
ment from the Leeds Court of Bankruptcy,
and the alleged intention of the Lord Chancellor
to appoint his eldest son in his place; so
that Lord Westbury's troubles are not yet ended.
Mr. HOl/011, member for East Norfolk, is the
chairman. Mr. Bonn is appointed to examine
witnesses on one eide,and the Lord Advocate on the
other—but without the right of voting—so that in
point of fact there is to be a regular trial with cross-
examinations by counsel; only the sittings of the
committee are to Le held in private. Throughout
the country the preparations for election contests are
in visible program Never, it is said, are so many
' candidates likely to be seen in the field as on the
present occasion. Nottingham for instanoe,in which
we profess some interest in consequence of one of
the candidate', Mr. G. A. Marten having been
coquetting with the constituency of Dorchester, will
have four—a whig, a conservative, and two radicals.
Looking nearer home, Sir Henry Rawlinson we just
heard, in passing by Prome,will in all probability be
brought ia there with eying cioloars. Colonel
Tynte relinquishes Bridgwater, and Mr. Ringlake,
although a liberal, is likely to form a coalition with
Mr. Westropp the Conservative candidate. In
Poole they announce the retirement of the Con-
servative member, Mr. Franklyn, and are endea-
vouring to induce Mr. Grieves, the Liverpool
shipowner, to come forward in his stead. In North
and South Wilts both the publication of long corn.
mittee lists for Mr. Long and for Colonel Hathurst,
Lord Henry Thynne and Mr. Fraser Grove, reopen.
lively indicate tough coming contests. Our
advertising columns continue to show that Lyme is
destined to be the wane of an active contest betwixt
Mr. Treaty and Mr. Ilawkshaw. In Dorchester, as
we ventured to predict to Mr. Sheridan in reference
to his criticism on the address of Sir Henry Wolff,
that gentleman has replied with vigour and not in
mere verbiage to the critiqua—Sir Henry has left
for a time, and we learn from their addresses that the
three Dorchester candidates have completed their pre.
liminary mars's, and can form BOWS estlitate of
the probabilities Of success or failure. The old
&embers appear to consider themselves very secure,
and an advertisement from that animated gentleman,
"Young Dorchester," appears in our columns to-day
charging them with having oonoerted a coalition.
Now that Sir Henry Drummond Wolff has evinced

whether he pats the saddle exactly upon the right
horse, it is not for us to say. We are not the apologist.
.1 country gentlemen who forget their responsibilities,
cod deem it "eat burglary" to be told that "property
has its duties as well as its rights." But perhaps it is
..nly too common, however lamentably erroneous an
Mimes/17cm amongst laymen—esen those of supeior
standing—that with things denominated diosvaan, the
clergy alone heve to do. Still it is too serious a piece of
-.tatisties to find that as respect!' the Diocesan Church
Union Society, "t.king," according to Mr. Codd, "an
average from several years' reports—of the 31.5 lay
magistrates for the counties of Wilts and Dorset, there
are 20 annual subeoribere to this society, or about
1 M 15; whilst of the 471 beneficed clergy of the
diocese (not to mention 200 curates). there are 105
annual subscribers, or 1 in 5." Again, if we turn to
the Diocesan Church Building Society, "taking the '
averages of six years, this society numbers 104 lay
subscribers, of which only 49 are magistrates, or about
tin 6 of the whole number of lay magistrates for the
eounties of Dorset and Wilt., and it has about 150
(clerical subscribers." Finally, if we consider the cue
of the Diocesan Board of Elocution, "The report for
1864 gives but 81 lay subscribers, of whom 37 only
are magistrate'', or about tin 8 of the whole number of
lay magistrates for the *aunties of Will, and Dorset,
and 121 clerical subscribers, or about 1 in 4 of the whole
number of beneficed clergy in the diocese—producing an
annual income of about £280!" What! are we talking
of the educational efforts of two great counties, or of
thou of some little volnntary sect? There is scarcely
a small dissenting community in England that would
not be ashamed, and whose members would not blush
up to the roots of their hair, at such paltry results in
the great modern tent of progress and enlightenment
No wonder that power, influence, and authority wax
and wane in the oonstituted heads of our governing
class, when they cannot and will not do more than this I
Had we 1404 to be told by an enemy that three-fourths
of our beneficed clergy, and seven-eighths of our county
magistracy, take no interest in the cause of education ;
that a slightly smaller proportion, hut still an awful
preponderance of the former, along with five-sixths of
the latter, take none in Chnrch Bnilding ; and four.
fifths of the one, and fourteen-fifteenths of the other,
none whatever in Church Union, we should have
groaned and said it was " • weak invention of the
enemy." But Mr. Cold is no enemy; be has found
all this upon record; and he has unhenitatingly stated
It as the beat and only mode of arresting that down•
ward career of indolence and indifference towards
Church movement which begins in cobwebs and ends
in iron chains. We may be told that amongst the magis-
tracy there may be dissenters who could not be expected
to aid the instrumentality by which the Church of
England seeks to fulfil her mission. Bat this csn never
apply to the clergy. And alshouth the rev, author
does not enter upon any data connected with the middle
classes, we only confess we are afraid, after what we
have found to be the case amongst those of whom co-
operation in Church matters is primarily expected, that
the disaloseres 'mold only And in tontething woree.
Tdfthuntirg seems to b. the terrible disorder of the
diocese. If one or two elassea—if the upper teu thou-
sand—elect te do nothing, nobody else will do any-
thing, and nobody else dare. That is simply the state
of society in Wilts and Dorset. Mr. Codd shows it
,nost significantly in dealing with only those two social
elements—magistrates and clergy—in his statistical
inquiry into the support, or the want of it, accorded to
our Diocesan Societies. What becomes of the vox
popu/i here? It certainly is no longer the vox Dei.
fidt theta never was & graver error than to ignore the
mid-tie classes and the popular magus in this matter.
Perhaps the possibility of tnanaeing great publics com-
binations suggests apprehensions enough to isolated
minds accustomed to run in the cut grooves of dignity
and precedent. But there is nothing on earth more
tractable than our great English organisations. We do
not wish to se* the popular element rushed in upon
Convocation, and the Church and we agree with those
who seek to uphold the character and stsnding of •
consecrated priesthood, by preserving to it, Sc far as
may be, even the prestige of social rank. But odr
diocese naloubtedly stands alone in rejecting rather
than courting the co-operation of the middle class; yea,
and even the lower cuss laity. The lower class! What
hove we to expect front them f Mere than Old—
syMpathyenthusiastics sympathy and good will, with-
out which the hugest fund that was ever raised to effect
an earthly object were utterly and entirely worthless.
Is it the se/e, however, that we are perfectly willing to
enlist the sympathy and support of the very humblest—
and only unable to accord them vo'ce or standing in
the promotion of the objects they 'should help us to
maintain? If so, this will never do. Whoever goes
into the Church Work of this or any other diocese
must go into it heart and soul, and without respect of
persons ; and it is only (ad We read) When all are found
of on accord in one place that the iilessing itclm on
high is seen to descend.

the candour to explain his political sentiments in
detail however, we could certainly have wished that
the other hon. gentlemen had gone and dohs likewisa
ere they rested from their labours; for it is • long
tito6 since we have beard what they have to say for
themselves, and it is very unsatisfactory that instead
of entering minutely, clearly, and oonswentiously
into all the leading questions of our foreign and
domestic policy, as Sir Henry Wolff has done, they
should endeavour to tie the label of "stranger"
to their opponent like • tin pan to the tail of a
oertain quadruped in order to raise the cry of "mad
dog." Stranger! Of all the most etdpld ahrl bigoted
prejudices that exist, none is so dense as that which
hull communities affect, but do not really entertain
sgeinst strangers. Why if we were to have none

members to the Hoots of o.ommons is, as Sir Henry
Wolff pointed out, a proud and honourable dis-
tinction. And we will say for the town of Dor.

trust committed to them of selecting two of the
legislative body of the land with less corruption.

neighhour, at ffordington, Mr. Ifanie, the well known
Dorcheteer florist. has 'moo. eded in introducing unilei
the name of Mrs. Pollock. This gorgeous gerenium
has no oocasion for flowers; its leaves alone are 'the
most pictorial of any plant we have ever witnessed. I
• form they are faultlessly symmetrical, their pure yellow
' base and frill marked over first with two split
oictureeque lobee of green, like the impression of another
leaf, superimposed on the yellow ground, and that
again with an inner circlet of crimson productive of •

purple to light red, or blending with the green and the

beautifull pencilled. and "Mrs. Pollock' having been •
seedling last year, and being in the second season, th.
principal plant raised by Mr. Harris has b-en eomputed
to possess not fewer than two thousand leaves. and is
thus an object of surpassing beauty, of which the value
is, perhaps, not less than £5O. Since Mrs. Pollock has
been " sent out," indeed, it would apeear that a host
of imitators have endeavoure•l to raise a similar pie-idea-
tion, but unsuccessfully. The secret of his brillitnt
success remains with Mr. Harris ; and the beat proof of
this is afforded by the leaf of a spurious " Mrs Pollock"

Fleinlet says, "1 to Hercules." We may film take this
opportunity of noticing that Mr. Harris is besides the
fortunate producer of a new and beautifully flowered
geranium, the thick petals of which resemble two
distinct petals much rather than one ; for whilst the
ine.de is a deep ruby, for all the world likes pies* of
velvet, the outs.de is a very bright pink rayed with

inevitably fetch a price something like £3O. Something

And as fresh applications for building leases have been
nude and will soon some before the Countil, thecommittee
suggest to the meeting the importance of procee hog
with the removal of the ridge adjoining the cheidnut
walk, the formation of the roads generally, and the
levelling of the field so far as may be necessary to render
it fit for the purposes intended, at an early period;
but it has appeared to the Committee imperatively
necessary that the western boundary wall should be built
et once, and they have accordingly directed an estimate
of its cost to be presented—Mr. Proud said he
should decidedly oppose the making of a carriage
road by the side of the chestnut walk. The Mayor
remarked that the Committee did not recommend
the making of a public carriage road there.
Aid rtnan Gelpin considered that a carriage-road tiers
would be a great convenience to the tenants of Wool-
laeten Field, that it would greatly improve the C trpo-
eation property, and that the Council had full p met to
gnard against any infringement of their rights. He
propoaed the adoption of the report. —Alderman Curtne
seconded the proposition—The Mayor considered that
a road parallel with the walk would be detrimental
to the interests of the public. The propoed
road was also objectionable bemuse it would be entered
by a sharp angle. He should prefer a road straight
acroes the walk.—On the motion being submitted to
the meeting, Mew-re. Galpin, Ensor, Curate, Bishop,
' Gregory. and Steele voted for it. The Mayor and
Messrs. Lock, Froud and Bennett did not vote. —The
resolution was declared carried —Tug PROPOSED

the regeneration of the won l thro-gh the power df the

state of the world toll of her unfinished work. This
position he supported hy noting the heathen darkness
th .t yet preysils in foreign lands, and the foot that in
some of our large towns half the populati in never attend
a place of worship. The statement made by B shop
Bloomfield 21) year. ago. wao yet true. It is fe irful to
think, said the Bishop, that more than a mllion of
souls in the metropolis are tinprovided with the means
of grace, that thousands are suffered to pee every year
td the eternal world hevieg no share In the comforts,
the privileges; aid the hopes of the ,Gospel. Finally he
stinuiled up the Ipiritnal destitution thet thevails, by
commenting on the ignorance that dbtaiine in eounfty
parishes. The question tette determined was, how can the
church of God provide for the spiritual nesessities of
the world? By whit instniintntalities and by what ,
agencies? And when lie spoke of inatrtirnentalitiesi and
asentiles his did nht forget that flint would of them-
delves olodnee the desired etect, bet that if it God who
givath the increase, through the grace of Christ and the
workings of the Holy Spirit, in answer to the prayers
of the faithful. First, he pointed out that there wan need
for more implicit reliance on the Lord's promised presence
with His Church, and greater self-denying love on the
part of those who named the name of Chri t, and
rentttre to ile.Mfy ono is behalf. Passing by inch

building of altirohes schools, and other instiutouts, !?tt
pries@ ded to speak of the living agents in the Church
of God. An addition should be made to the number
of bishop., an inerease in the number of the
parochial clergy was absolutely required and there
was much that might be said in favour of deacons, sub-
deacon., and 'apnea, with tiorombsioos from the Bishop,
exercising sonic special function f the winistry. He
Raked the clergy seriously to &insider whether the

ouromo of Christ that the laymen of the church should
be fellow-helpers with the clergy in His vineyard ac-
ending to their gifts, and that it was for the clergy to
use their own slits in wash • manner as they might
most thoroughly furnish the laity for the
Christian work. After duly considering the ob.
jectens that might be cased against such eo-opersti,m,
and the ditneUtt as that attach to it, the arch-
deacon dilated oil the happine s and blessedness
