TIIE CEREMONY AT TEMPLE BAR.

The formal reception of the Queen into the City was suc-
cessful from first to last, says the Reporter of the DailyScult,
who thus proceeds Not a single alderman fell from his
horse. The Lord Mayor alighted and remounted without
much difficulty : at least one of the sheriffs proved himself
an accomplished horseman : and though certain civic
funetionaries appeared at one time to be in heavy
trouble, it passed over, and the City procession came
to and departed from Temple-bar in what may be
described as a blase of triumph. . . . It may be
doubted if the Queen enjoyed any episode in the
day more heartily than when she called the Prince of Wales'
attention in an undertone, and er ith a demo e smile, to the
steps being brought out of Child's banking-house to enable
the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs to remount their steeds. Her
Majesty and the Princess of Wales of course faced the
horses in the Royal carriage, and the Prince of Wales and the
Princess Beatrice sat opposite them. After the civic sword of
state had been returned to the Lord Mayor by the Queen,
his lordship and the Sheriffs had to take horse and
hurry on to the head of the procesaion. Five of the
Lord Mayor's footmen, gorgeous in sky -blue and
gold, like pale diplomats, stood round a set of short wooden
steps, with trumpeters in long scarlet cloaks, and minor
civic functionaries in robes of various hues around. The
Lord 1%1 ayor's horse was brought to the edge of the pave-
ment, and held by a sufficient number of men in uniform,
, after which his lordahip first mounted his temporary ladder,
, and then threw his leg over his animal in " no tone," to
' use the figure of a gentleman in the crowd. The Sheriffs
were equally brisk, and the Royal party laughed out
appreciatively—the Prince of Wales, though a little blanched
by his illness, being obviously in high spirits. The
Princess, who was dressed in blue velvet, and the Queen,
entered warmly into the fun, and the Chief Magistrate of
the City and his two Sheriffs may congratulate themselves
upon having been the cause of innocent amusement
to Royalty. It must be clearly understood that there
was not a scintilla of what may be termed natural awk-
warduess about the performance we describe. The
Lord Mayor looked every inch a horseman when
once in the saddle. Mr. Sheriff Bennett had pre-
viously caracolled before the admiring crowds for a
good hour and the comicality of the incident was
due mainly to the gorgeous state robes whirls these
gentlemen were compelled toes-ear, and which necessitated
the use of steps, recalling a clothes-horse rather than steeds
more animated. But the whole affair had an odd, out world
look. The Lord Mayor reminded one in his finery of the
RMg on a Twelfth-cake, and his official followers, from the
highest to the lowest, seemed to belong to the Middle Ages,
when civic guilds and civic magnates were more reverenced
than now."

MR. GLADSTONE AND THE PARKS
BILLS.

Mr. Gladstone having been asked to receive a deputation
appointed at a meeting recently held to oppose the Parks
Regulation Bill, the Premier's secretary wrote on Saturday
"Mr. Gladstone desires me to state that your la.st
letter on the subject of the Parks Regulation Bill only
reached him on the morning of the 22nd inst., when
the state of the public business would not allow of the
postponement of that measure until after the reception
of the deputation, as suggested in your letter. It is
now intended that the Bill when it has passed through
Committee shall be reprinted, in order that there may
be an opportunity of considering it with such amend-
ments incorporated as will be proposed by the Govern-
ment, and may probably be adopted by the House of
Conmions. Should it be found necessary after reprint.
ing, Mr. Gladstone will receive the deputation on whose
behalf you have written, but judging from your letter,
he thinks it likely that little objection will be felt to
the bilL"

THE SPADE TRADE.

Thera liss of late been a considerable advance
in prices in the above trade, and the operatives
of the Stourbridge district taking this fast into
consideration, and also the present high price of
provisions, determinea to ask the masters for a
rise of wages. Accordingly, a meeting wa,
c died, and after some discussion it was unani-
mously decided to ask the masters for an ad-
ranee of 8d per dozen upon the present prices;
I and Messrs. Benjamin Haywood and Nimrod
' Norris were the deputation appointed to wait
upon them for that purpose. They, in due
course, called epee the different manufacturer,
in the district to make known the demands of
\the men, and met everywhere with complete
success, as the masters one and all have:pro-
mised to give the full amount asked for; the
i ri:e to date from this day (Saturday).

Impurities of the Blood.

These wonderful Pills are valued at the humblest
hearths as well as in the houses of comfort and wealth.
They work a thorough purification throughout the whole
•system, without disordering the natural action of any
organ, and eradicate those germs of complainti which
consign tens of thousands to an early grave.
Indigestion, If ilious Compl«into, and Sick
Headache.

No organ in the human body is so liable to disorder
as the liver, and none is more apt, when neglected, to
become seriously diseased. Remember when nausea,
flatulency, or acidity on the stomach warns us that diges-
tion is not proceeding properly, that Holloway's Pills
regulate every function, give strength to every organ,
speedily remove all causes of indigestion, bile, and sick
, headache, and effect a permanent care.

,
Weakness and Debility.
In rases of debility, languor and nervousness, general
ted by excess of any kind, whether mental or physical,
the effects of these Pills is in the highest degree bracing
renovating, and restorative. They drive from the system
the morbid causes of disease, re.establish the digestion,
regulate all the secretions, strengthen the nervous aye.
tern, raise the patient's spirits, and bring back the frame
to its pristine health and vigour.
Turn of Life anti Dropsical Swellings.

The turn of life is the most distressing period in wo-
man's existence; it destroys thousands. The whole of
the gross humours collect together, and like a tide sweep
away health and life itself, if not timely and powerfully
checked. The most certain antidote for all these dangers
is Holloway's Pills. Armed with them the fiery ordeal is
pass ed through, and the sufferer is once more restored to
the possession of unimpaired health. It is but little
known that at the so. called 'turn of life," man also,
when verging on forty or forty-five, discovers that his
health is considerably deranged and know, not the canoe
—a critical period in his We. All perils to both sexes
are at once removed by recourse to these Pills.

THE ROYAL PROCESSION.

The scene of preparation u viewed from within the court-
yard of the Palace was something not. soon to be forgotten,
and It wan witnesaed not only by her Majesty, the Duke of
Edinburgh, Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, and the Princess
Beatrice, but by the Emperor Napoleon, the Empress
Eugenie, and the Prince Imperial, their eon. They arrived
at the Palace soon after 11 o'clock, and the Emperor and the
Duke of Edinburgh almost immediately came to one of the
windows of the State apartment over the portico, where they
were soon joined by the
.Empreas and the Prince Imperial.

The large open space in front of Buckingham Palace was
completely crammed before 11 o'clock, and it was with the
greatest difficulty that the police and the soldiers who had to
keep the avenue clear could do so. Thousands upon thou.
sands of persons could barely have had even a glimpse of
the Royal carriages, but they made up for their prevention
of sight by their enthusiasm. All along the Park the in-
tense excitement increased, and began as the carriage
conveying the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Leopold, Prince
Arthur, and Prince George of Wales emerged from the
Palace grounds, and which was atill further increased when
the Queen came. Her Majesty looked wonderfully well, and
never better pleased. The Prince was somewhat pale ;
but he had that frank and genial smile which
tinguishes him upon all occasions. His Royal High-
nese appeared highly gratified with his reception,

MARRIAGE AND THE RIGHTS UNDER

A WILL.

The Master of the Rolls gave judgment on Monday,
in the case of Sir William Russell's tnists, in which
the widow of the testator, although she had married
again after his death, claimed the interest of his pro-
perty under the following clause in his will
"1 will and direct that Jane Eliza, my dearly-beloved
wife, in addition to the settlement made upon her at the
time of her marriage, shall receive the interest of all my
property during the time she remains unmarried, with the
exception of the hereinafter-mentioned legacy, he. ; and in
the event oilier marrying again, then I will and direct that
after her marriage ali interest of all my property, exclusive
of her marriage settlement, or so much as is necessary, shall
be set apart for the maintenance and education of any
children." _

The second husband of the testator's widow having
died, it was urged en her behalf that inasmuch as she
had become "a widow" and "unmariied," she was en-
titled to the interest of the testator's property. Lord
Romilly, however, held that by marrying again after
the testatsir's death she had forfeited the benefit of the
clause. If her claim was well founded with regard to
her becoming a widow after her second marriage, it
would be equally good on her becoming a widow after
a third or a fourth marriage. The event which was to
deprive her of the aforesaid benefit, viz., her marrying
again after the testator's death, had occurred.

HYDE PARK CORNER.

From whatever cause, the crowd at le Park became so
dense that it threatened at one time to become unmanage-
able. Apsley-house was, of con's°, the central point of
interest. The Duke and Duchess of Wellington occupied
seats in the centre of the balcony, and entertained a 1
brilliant party of visitors. A stage for Seats also ran '
along the garden front, which was enlivened by a dis-
play of banners. Other visitors saw the procession
from the roof.. Flags also floated from the corners of the
mansion and from the portico. The tinted lonic columns
of the Hyde Park screen rem covered by tiers of seats, and
similar tiers were erected on each side of the Arch
leading to Constitntion-hill. A crowd also occupied the
summit of the arch, and the spectators, who law a man
lounging against a hind leg of the Duke's horse, and noticed
that his hat only came halt-way up the leg, seemed to
realize more correctly than they had ever done before
the colossal proportions of the statue ,remarks the reporter
of The Timeg). St. George's Hospital afforded an excellent
point of view, both from the whidowa and the roof. The
view tip the Park in the direction of the Marble Arch was
strikingly picturesque and aniniated. The mound upon
whieh stands the Achilles statue was densely filled, and a
large number of Park seats were rese.ved for visitors. As
far up the Park 84 the eye could reach the crowd was un-
broken. The roadway was kept clear by the "thin redline"
of the 2nil Battalion of Coldstream Guards, under Colonel C.
Baring, behind whim were the metropoltan police, charged

A SPARROW PRom.xx. —The Boston Traveller
gays —"We: understand that quite &colony of English
sparrows has recently appeared in Rockland, Maine,
estimated at over 100 in number. They are believed to
have emigrated from Boston-common, as that is the
nearest point at which any considerable number of these
birds are to be found. It is quite probable that they
have been driven off by the butcher birds or sparrow
hawks which made such an onslaught on these birds
last autumn. How the birds got to Rockland is more
than we know. They may have followed along the
coast, or have taken paesage on some of the steam-
boats or mailing packets which ply on the coast. There
are examples of such emigration on record, Rockland
is about 1,50 miles from Bmitom"

CRADLEY HEATH.

NARROW Escape—On Saturday morning a little girl
residing with Mr. Archer, High-street, in the absence of
her grandmother commenced playing with the fire
Whilst doing so her night-dress ignited. and in a moment
she was in flames. Her screams attracted attention, and
the flames were soon extinguished, but not before she
had sustained severe injuries. She was at once removed
in a cab to the General Hospital, Birmingham, where she
lies in • precarious state.
ACCIDRST.—An accident happened on Monday morning
at the Corngreaves Iron Works, which fortunately was not
attended with any very serious results. The rollers were
shifting some rolls when a bar slipped, and flying into
the air, struck a yonng man named Jacob Townsend on
the face, breaking his nose and cutting his head. He was
conveyed home, and Dr. Malin summoned, under whose
care he is slowly progressing.

dens of St. Luke's Church—Messrs. W. Barker and 0.

A MELANCHOLY END!

Au Inquest has been held In London on the body of Mr.
Edward Ilenri 'lode, aged 45 years. 'of 19. Princess-street,
Red Lion-square, late editor of the British and Foreign
Mechanic, and formerly of the Engiush Mechanic and other
Journals.
Mrs. Tali% wife of deceased, said that on the morning
of the 17th inst., when he left home, he appeared rather
depressed, and at half-past J in the evening she went
out to look for him, when she saw him being carried
down Red Lion-street by two police-constables. She
stopped them, told them who she was, and as she only
lived a few doors off, begged them to allow her take him
home. They refused, and she followed them to the
station, where she visited him the next morning. Ile
was then bailed out. On arriving home, he said be was
afraid that his arm was dislocated, went immediately
to bed, became insensible, and died on Monday morn-
ing. She did not think that the police had
treated him, but she blamed them for not allowing
her to take him home.
Mr. Ransorne, a newspaper publisher, said that on
Sunday morning he bailed out the deceased, who was
an old friend, and whom he had never seen intoxicated.
Upon being released the deceased said he did not know
what had come over him, that he went into Holborn,
and remembered nothing more ; he also remarked to
the officer that his arm was in a bad state, to which
the constable replied, "perhaps it was from lying on
the board." The witness believed that deceased must
have been seized with a fit, and in that state was taken
by the police.
William Brooks, a police-constable, said that on
Saturday, about nine p.m., he saw deceased lying on
the pavement in Holborn, surrounded by a crowd, and
tried to arouse him; but he merely turned his head.
With the assistance of another constable he took him
to the station, where he simply gave his name and ad-
dress. He told the wife to obtain bail.
The Coroner said that the police ought not to take
upon themselves to lock up persons in this way.
Dr. Robertson said he was called about 10 p.m. on
Sunday evening, and found the deceased insensible in
bed. Upon hearing that he had been taken in charge
by the police he examined him and found a mark on
the arm evidently caused by the handling iif the con-
stables. lie made a poet mortem examination, which
showed congestion of and an effusion of serum on the
brain, which was the cause of death.
The Coroner summed up the case and the jury re-
turned a verdict in accordance with the medical testi-
mony.

TO TEMPLE BAR.
(From Puna.)

0, Temple Bar, a prouder Monument
Art thou than all, though some their heads far higher
I oint to the sky, through London's whole e t ent :
Ev'n than the tall Memorial of her Fire.

Beneath thy festooned arch ere now hath passed
How oft a Monarch with a pageant gay,
Or a Lord Mayor in glory doomed to last,
But to the next November's thrice third day !
And when, upon a visit of high State,
Approached thee has the Monarch of the land,
How many a City King bath, at thy Gate
Attended, to his Liege thy Keys to hand !
On top of thee famed Rebels' heads, by Love
And Mercy cut off in the days ago,
Have Loyalty commended from above
To crowd, that gazed on Royalty below.
And now had thou been whitewashed, Temple Bar,
But not as caitiffs plunged in hopeless debt ;
Not as poor penniless insolvents are :
No, thou, though ebitcwaohe,l, art not bankrupt yet !
And when some Hero, not perhaps unborn,
Is borne, through thee, to his Cathedral tomb,
A cunt of blacking may thy face adorn :
But we rejoice ; we will not discount gloom.

And are there those who fain would pull thee down—
Thou that Juana:Mist thy Westward crossing free?
Lkked, as thou art, anew with England's Crown?
They shall nut, Temple nar. Perpetual be
