Mr. BILMIAN had not succeeded in opening a secret

Judge of the County Court decided rightly in fevour
of Mr. BUTIKAN. It is unfortunate for Mr. 'Luca
that he was not better advised than to bring an
action which could not but fail. He ought to
congratulate himself that the existence of the
County Court enabled him to indulge in his
litigious capriees at an expense oomparetively
moderate.

the universities and the middle classes should proceed moth
farther thee merely to takieg a part in two or three local
examiestions. The great lords of the mil have. for the

should the great Firms of manufeettur•—• soil not less
rich and 004 less real—refuse the same advantage? "We
believe," mays the Times, " that the question thus suggested
by the bishop bee been already to large extent
answered an he woad wish it. University men are daily
blooming mere common in the City and in provincial houses
of busbies. The ridiculous distinction by which trade was
thought a lees boocarable employment than agriculture or

competition in trade itself renders • superior education
daily more emential ate
motes. Great merchants, who have
risen laboriously by their own exertions, will be the first to
indorse the bishop's adviee. The time, however, has not
yet come when such "dries is uenecessary, sad there is yet
much to be dose by all claws before the general education
of the country reaches the high standard which it ought to
