PRIJESIA AND FRANCE.

The Kreutz Zeitung, of September 90, contained
an article against the French press. The article
insists that now the officious press itself launches
forth unanimously in menaces against Prussia.
The Gazette maintains, moreover, that the French
government is incessantly increasing its armaments.
It solemnly protests against any intervention, ex-
presses a hope that France will be more circum-
spect than those bellicose journals, and ends by
declaring that if it be otherwise Prussia is ready
for any event.
On Monday the Czarewitch had a long interview
with Count Bismarck.

CHATHAM, Dr.c. 29.

In consequence of the fears entertained by a
Mrge number of the inhabitants of Chatham and Rochester
as to the safety of the government powder magazines at
trpnor Castle. and the possibility of an attack being made
ea them by Fenian emissaries, an influeutial deputation
ei the inhabitants has waited upon Major-General F. Mur-
ray, commanding the district, requesting that the den-
prone prJaiinity of the magazines to Chatham and
Rochester may be brought under the notice of the govern-
ment, with the view to the necessary stew being taken to
have the stores of powder removed to a less dangerous
locality, rind urging that in the meantime every pretension
should be taken to render the magazines secure from
attack. (4inerel Mussy assured the members of the de-
putation that the matter had received the earnest con-
sideration of the government, and that every precaution
had been adopted for the security of the teeth, and its
°entente. A letter bee since been received from General
Sir E. Lugard, G.C.8., the Under-Secretary of State for
War, announcing that t►e question of the removal of the
magazines from Upnor Castle is under the special consi-
deration of the authorities at the War-office. . _

During yesterday and the previous day upwards of
1,000 of the officials and workmen belonging to this dock-
yszd were sworn in as special constables before Captain W.
H. Stewart, superintendent, assisted by one of the
magistrates for the county. It is intended to swear in the
whole of the workmen, to the number of upwards of 3,000,
to be employed in the protection of the prominent sew
hilohmento at this port and prrieen.

YR. MATTHEW ARNOLD AND HIS CRITICS.

The Daily News compares Mr. Matthew Arnold,
when in the field of political controversy, as in the
current number of the Comilla( Magazine, to the swan on
land. His writings have been a refreshment of the spirit
to numbers of busy and thought-taxed men, and
he has often, with true aim, launched his satire
against the narrowness of mind which is the'
besetting danger of practical politicians and philosophical
system-builders. But he does not himself escape the narrow.
ness which absorbs the prophet in a few truths, sod renders
him unable to understand aught beside. He has now
addressed himself to the function of the State in human
life, and expresses a theory which is a medley compounded
of the doctrines of Oompte and Carlyle, and the practice
of French imperialism and the ancient democracies. Ho
would make the state the organ of the oomnion reason
of society, but how can he be certain that reason will be
the quality which will be embodied in it Mr. Arnold
would apparently leave it to the executive to decide what
demonstrations and meetings and processions are in ac-
cordance with right reason and shall be allowed, and what
conflict with it and must be suppressed. The meetings of
the Reform League and the Fenian processions would
have been put down in le t;7 ; but so certainly would
those of the Anti-Corn Law League and the Catholic
Association and the Anti-Slavery Society in past
times. Right reason, acting through the organism
of the State, would have suppressed free trade and
maintained the penal laws and negro slavery.
The truth seems to be that, though Mr. Arnold, in the
Cornhill Magazine, is largely occupied in attacking the
school of Comte, he bas adopted unconsciously their views
of the functions of the State, and is on the high way to
their doctrine of an Intellectual Priesthood and a Supreme
Pontiff of Humanity. Like many other eminent men he is
afraid of the effects of tory democracy, but as in the na-
tural, so in the social world, light, sweetness, and order
must be the result of a balance of forces, attained not by
artificial suppression, but by freedom of development, and,
it may be, occasional storm and conflict.

THE FINTANS.

l Anticipating a suspicion that the gunpowder explosion
' at Faversham is a work of the Fenians, the Times reminds
its re►ders of the fact that no attack has yet been made,
or outrage oommitted, except with the view of releasing
imprisoned Feninns. The crime has always hitherto been
perpetrated for a direct and specific; purpose, and that pur-
pose the liberation of alleged Fenian In or on their way
to gaol. The slightest act of carelessness—and the most
prudent workmen sometimes fall into the commission of
such acts—might easily have mused the explosion at Faver-
sham. Fenianism must be condemned for what is proved
against it, and the vigilance of authority in every quarter.
public and private, must not be relaxed ; but there is not
the least necessity to encourage a sense of insecurity by
ascribing to Fenianism accidents which are susceptible of
ordinary methods of explanation.

necessary to use the eyes very sparingly. The Liverpool

entertained at the time that his sight might be endangered,
a subsequent examination showed that the wound was

bra,—We deeply regret to state that an explo-
sion took place at our powder works, Faversham, yeeter•
day, at 11 a.m., when • corning-house and press-house
(separated by two hose brick traverses which were in-
tended as an effective barrier to communication) blew up,

and the unfortunate workmen therein employed, to the
number of 11, have unhappily lost their lives. These men
were, in point of skill and remuneration, at the head of
that branch of our works ; and our sorrow for their loss is
only lees than that of their afflicted families. In the pre-
sent state of public feeling we think it proper to say that
we have no reasonable suspicion of anything felonious con-
nected with this catastrophe. We, like others engaged
in dangerous trades, have had hints and warnings of mis-
chief, and have endeavoured by extra precautions and
watching to provide against it. We hope that, sad as this
event is, the coincidence of the explosion with these
anxieties and fears will prove to be a coincidence and
nothing more. We did not loge a moment in communi-
cating with the authorities of the Houle-office for their
information and guidance.—We are,

GENERAL TCRR AT PESTH.—A letter from Peath
of the 14th mays :—" A grand promenade by torchlight has
been organised in honour of General Turr. In responding
to the address of an ultra ending with the words, ' Tell
the Emperor Napoleon that in Hungary it is only the
name of Kossuth that can enkindle spirit.,' Turr re-
plied, The present bases and the men of the majority
are worthy of confidence. Be on your guard against dia.
trust. The legs' course which has been adopted is the
only one by which what is needed can be attained. It is
by peace, and not by arms, that Hungary will be a great
country. Long live our country.' "

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

AUSTRIA AND POLAND.

The 12th of September was celebrated at Tol-
kiew, Gallic* by the inauguration of a monument
to Sobieski, it being the anniversary of the battle
of Vienna, in which the Polish hero saved Austria
from Turkish conquest. This has been warmly
remarked upon by the Debatte, the semi-official
journal of the cabinet of Vienna. The following
is the conclusion of this article :
If we wish to close that breach which has been opened in
our sides ; if we wish to give to liberty—sad especially to
' liberty in Austria—new and valiant defenders, Austria
must show herself grateful; she must hasten,
for she has no right to temporise—to discharge
an old debt ; she must address herself to the
deliverance of the Polish nation, groaning under the yoke
which oppresses it ; she must appear as its saviour, as
Poland formerly brought safety to her. Resuscitated
Poland will be the strongest and most faithful ally of
Austria against the invading flood of panslavism, which,
in its vast and monotonous uniformity, threatens to
extinguish every spark of liberty. That is the finest
homage which grateful Austria can pay to the memory of
Sobieski, the hero King.

THE ANTIBES LEGION.

According to the Liberfe the French and Italian
Cabinets have come to an agreement for certain
modifications with regard to the above legion.
Henceforth the period of service will no longer
be counted to the soldiers as if it had been
gone through in the ranks of the French
army. Cases of insubordination will not again ho
regarded as infractions of the military French regu-
lations. Finally, deserters from the Legion will not
be punished, should cases arise, by incorporation
in French discipline companies. The comman-
dant of the Legion is free to fill up vacancies by
the enrolment of soldiers who were not born in
France.

THE Hoe PICKINO.—The reports we have re-
arrived from the hop districts, although varied in details,
go pretty much to establish one point, namely, that the
crop of 1867 will fall short of the expectations formed after
the favourable change in the weather ithout a month or
ago. Where the grounds bad suffered severely from
blight there are practically speaking few or no hope, end
in the partially blighted pounds the hops come don
short of expectation and light in weight. In the best ;u•
dens matters look better, and there are certain favoured
spots—few and far between- -where the planter wid get
both quantity and quality. The weather bas, on the
whole, been highly favourable for the picking, and Uwe
have another week or so of dry weather there can be no
doubt that there will be a material improvement in the
"condition" of the later picked hops. Sussex continues
to be favoured beyond other counties this year, ant
already there has been secured a considerable quantity of
bops with plenty of colour and condition.—Saiseir Ada,.•

BIRTHS, MARRIAGES, AND DEATHS.
London, England, 1867-01-24

ANCIENT FEES AND PRESCRIPTIVE

It was yesterday decided in the Court of Queen's Bench
by a majority of three to one that the Rector of
Horton, in Buckinghamshire, has no right to a marriage
fee of 13.., although a similar fee has been paid since 1808—
the objection being that the amount was too great for the
custom to have existed from time immemorial. The
Times remarks that this decision will not only deprive
the rev. gentleman concerned of any legal right to
marriage fees, but all clergymen, except in oases where
there may be • special enactment. Nor are clergymen
the only victims. This case was immediately followed by
another in which a claim was a➢eged to the customary
toll or due of a shilling for every cartload of vegetables
brought into Cheltenham market. The evidence was
of the same character, and the case was, of course,
similarly decided. Carts will be able to enter Cheltenham
market for the future without paying • shilling.
Here, too, the same rule will apply to many similar cases,
and numberless customary tolls are deprived of any legal
right. Mr. Justice Blackburn seems to doubt whether
the corporation of the city of London will be able to main-
tain its duties upon corn, coal, and oysters. Until re-
cently many payments in courts of justice depended solely
on the presumption that they were ancient fees, and some
such payments probably exist still. It follows that they
had no legal sanction ; and if any such still exist, they
are now deprived of legal authority. These are certainly
(as Mr. Justice Blackburn described them) startling results,
and it is difficult to see how far they may extend.
The present law of England is that, with certain special
exceptions, no prescription is legally valid, unless it dates
from the reign of Richard 1., though, in the more im-
portant circumstances, the law has always been rendered
practically innocuous by legislation. Mr. Justice Black-
burn, the dissentient judge, admitted it to be im-
possible that such a payment could have been
made for marriages in the reign of Richard 1.,
but he thought it might be enough if it ,
was made out that the custom was for a rea-
sonable fee; but the other judges said that the pre-
sumption of a particular custom could not be made in the
/Ace of an absolute impossibility. There are few who will
not share the opinion of the Chief Justice, that a law
which thus " requires prescription or custom to be curried

MIISCELLANHOUS TOPICS.

In the case of the Overend and Gurney shareholder'',
the Herald, without pretending to the gift of prophecy,
will venture pretty confidently, it says, to anticipate a
judgment adverse to the Defence Association, and this
mainly because the law has been settled in advance by a
concurrence of authorities. To allow people whose names
appear on the register of the shareholders of a company
of their own free will to escape the consequences of their
voluntary acts whenever they happen to become un-
pleasant, would be to defeat the entire purpose of the
legislature, and to introduce an element of uncertainty
into the dealings of these companies which would prac-
tically render it impossible for them to carry on their
business.

The announcement of Bavarian policy which Prince
Robenlobe has just made decides, says the Dail, Nero,
the future of South Germany; for a southern league with•
out Bavaria is simply impossible. The Bavarians do not
want to become Prussians, but rather than live under the
foreign protectorate to which the Emperor Napoleon would
have reduced them, they are ready to increase their army
and place it under the command of the King of Prwuria.
Thus an insidious attempt to frustrate the work of German
unity seems likely to end by advancing it.
The Herald does not believe that the minister's declara-
tions of Bavarian policy represent any real consent on the
part of the smaller state to be absorbed by the larger one.
In reality Bavaria wishes to preseve her independence and
autonomy, and she thinks that her beat chance of preserv-
ing them is by making up to Prussia.

His LowTASTE.A.

Although Mr. Bright's family was most respectable, and
be might, had be pleased, have been a constant viscor at
the best buuses in the vicinity, he was remarkable, when &
young male. for eschewing such intercourse. We have it
on the best authority that one evening when he had hem
invited to a tea party, after which there was to be an ia-
teresting discussion on l'readamite fossils, he absented
himself, and was detected leaning over a wall awl amusing
himself by observing some dirty lads playing at skittles.
And this was " the father to the man " who pronmes is
talk of the shortcomings of the aristocracy
