CHANCERY CAI:RES.—From a list just issued it
appears that there are set down for hearing next term,
commencing to-morrow, u many as 111 appeals in the
Court of Chancery. There are sli causes before the Mas-
ter of the Rolla 122 before Vice Chancellor Stuart, 111
before Vice Chancellor Wood, and 65 before Vice Chan-
cellos Malin.

OPENING OF A NEW LINE OF RAILWAY.—TO-
day the Wellington and Market Drayton Railway will be
opened for through traffic, and a new route will thus be
afforded to passengers from Wolverhampton and the Pot-
teries to Crewe, Manchester, Stockport, and the north.
The new line is seventeen miles in length, and has been
constructed by Messrs. Bnuney and Field, who cut the
first sod in 1885. The line will be worked by the Great
Western Company, in connection with their through traffic
from London to Manchester, and the effect will be to save
the time and distance lest by the present necessary detour
rid Shrewsbury and Chester. To the north, Liverpool,
from Worcester, Gloucester, Bristol, and the western dis-
trict, the opening of the new route will also be of consi-
derable advantage, as affording a direct means of commu-
nication without the necessity of going either by Shrews-
bur/ or Stafford.

THE NEW METROPOLITAN STREETS ACT.

The new act for regulating the traffic in the me-
tropolis, &c., came into operation to-day.
Some sympathy is felt for the costerrnongers, owing to
the strictness of the clause relating to the prohibition of the
sale of articles in the public thoroughfares. Several meet-
ings have been convened at the east-end to take this clause
into consideration. One is to be held this evening
in the school-room, belonging to St. Mary's, White-
chapel, the rector of the parish, the Rev. J. Cohen, in the
chair. The notice announcing the meeting is addressed to
" Street-sellers and others," and the object set forth is to
take into consideration the advisability of presenting • pe-
tition to the Secretary of State, praying for the re-
vision of the act. This morning such neighbour-
hoods as Leather-lane, Whitecross-street, Clare-market,
Whitechapel-road, Re., where costermongers mostly ply
their calling, presented the same appearance as usual ; and
not the slightest interference was shown on the part of
the police. The occupation of the " betting men," bower, r,
seems gone ; and at the several places where they have
been in the habit of meeting the public could pass unim-
peded. At the "arches," situate on the site of the old
Fleet prison, hitherto • large meeting place, there was
only • single individual who when the opportunity
occurred offered the " Turf Guide " for male. The
only direct elep Lakwu nits morning in the working of
the new act was the regulation of the carriage traffic.
Suspended to various lamp-posts at the corner of the prin-
cipal thoroughfares in the City was a " police notice,"
emanating from "James Fraser, colonel," directing atten-
tion to the streets and portion of the greets" having
special reference to the act. They are as follows :
Aldgate, Rishopsgate-street Within, Cannon-street, Chan-
cery-lane, Cheapaide, Cornhill, Fenchurch-street, Fleet-
street, Gracechurch-street, Gresham-street, Holborn-hill,
King-street, Cheapaide ; King-street, Snow-bill ; King Wil-
liam-street, Leadenhall-street, Lombard-street, London-
bridge. Lothbury, Ludgate-hill, Mansion-house-street,

FRANCE.

PARIS, Ocr. 31.
The France, the Patric, and the Etcadard of
this evening publish articles stating that the in-
vasion of the Papal States by the Italian troops
constitutes an abnormal state of things dangerous
to peace.
The Peeve affirms that the Emperor of lAustria
and the Emperor Napoleon have had frequent con-
ferences on the present complications, and that
their consultations have resulted in the establish-
ment of a most perfect unanimity of the two
courts.

The Eteidard remarks that at the moment when
the Italian ministry was giving orders for its troops
to enter the Papal territory, it affected to adopt
energetic measures against the revolutionary party
by closing the Oaribaldian relief committees, and
by causing all placards posted up by the party of
action to be torn down.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Ocr. 31, EVENING.

The semi-official Prwntincial Correspowle lice of this
evening says :—" Up to the present, Prussia has
not been compelled to take any decisive action in
the Italian question, but she will certainly not fail
to use her legitimate influence with the view of
preventing a more serious breach of the peace of
Europe."

Tho right of proposing representatives for the
tipper House of the Prussian Diet has been granted
to the towns of Hanover, Cassel, Frankfort-on-the-
Maine, Altana, and Flensburg. Three new repre-
sentatives will be given to the three universities of
Gottingen, Marburg, and Kiel.

THE ZOLLVEREIN.
MUNICH, Ocr. 31, EvENING.
To-day the Upper House agreed by 35 to 13
votes to the resolution of the Chamber of Deputies
relative to the treaty of the Zollverein, and the
suppression of the salt monoply.

&LTONA, Ocr. U.
The greater portion of the electoral districts of

Schleswig the Danish party has been victorious,
and the German party have entered protestsagainst
certain illegal proceedings in connection with the
return of the Danish candidate.

WURTEMI:URG.

STUTTGARD, Oer. 31.
In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies,
the Zollverein treaty and the Salt Tax Bill were
adopted by 173 against 16 votes. Moat of the
speakers on the subject gave as their reason for
voting for the treaty the impossibility of Wurtem-
berg's maintaining an isolated attitude.

M. Comlnriotis, the Greek minister, WU re-
ceived to-day by the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

SUGAR DUTIES.

In committee of the whole house on the sugar duties, the
CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER proposed a scale
of duties in substitution for those at present in operation,
upon importations and drawbacks, to take effect from the
Ist of March next. The right hon. gentleman explained
that the resolutions were consequent upon the convention
agreed to with the Emperor of the French and the Kings
of Holland awl Belgium in 1864, with the view of putting
en end to certain abuses, and establishing the system of
assessment and drawback upon a principle which should
be adopted by all four countries. The effect would be to
place the British refiner in a position of perfect equality
with the foreigner in the neutral markets of Europe, but It
would have no material influence upon the revenue.
Mr. CRAWFORD expressed his complete satisfaction
with the proposed changes, which, he said, would tend
to equalise the duties more than any previous measure
had done.

Mr. GLADSTONE remarked that the late government
were really responsible for the proposal, and the Chancellor
of the Exchequer. in the exercise of a just judgment, bad
approved the result of the inquiries which his predecessors
had caused to be made.

Observations reTeaiso made by Mr. Crum Ewing, Mr.
Hankey, Mr. Alderman Luak, and Mr. Cave, and the ram-
lutiona were agreed to.
Sir S. Nontitcorg obtained leave, with the support of
Mr. GIBSON, to brine in a bill abolishing the mhos of
Vice-President of the /laird of Trade, and substituting a
secretary of state with a seat in parliament in his place.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKET&

MARK-LANE.—(THIS DAY.)
Fresh up to-day, cosetwise and by land carriage, the
arrivals of English wheat were limited, and in somewhat
improved condition. The attendance of millers being
limited, mks progressed slowly, at Monday's currency.
In foreign wheat, the supply of which was moderate,
the transactions were limited, at about stationary prices.
Floating cargoes of grain were held at full quotations.
We were rather scantily supplied with both English and
foreign barley. Nevertheless all kinds were inactive, on
former terms.
The malt trade was in a sluggish state, at about sta-
tionary prices. The supply of malt was tolerably good.
No change took place in the value of oats ; the transac-
tions in them, however, were rather limited.

Beans were'a slow inquiry, but not cheaper.
Peas were held on former terms. The sale for them Ivo'
rather heavy.
The dour trade was in a sluggish state. The top price of
town-made flour was 575. per 280Ibs.
The seed market was devoid of animation. In prices,
however, very little change took place. Cakes supported
last week's quotations.

BETTING IN LONDON.—TRURSTAT ArrEß.nowr.

The attendance at the clubs was limited, and the business
hinged chledy on the Lincolnshire Handicap. For this event
Christmas Carol came again with a rush, neo to 100 being taken
by one commissioner, and several bets being concluded at the
ruse odds, so that at the finish the Carol" occupied his old
post of Best favourite. The Beadle was also In considerable

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS BILL.

The Earl of DERBY moved the aroma reading of this
bill.

Earl STANHOPE objected to the constitution of the
commission, and suggested as he did last year, that there
should be two members of the House of Commons upon
the commission, in order that all parties might be re-
presented.
Lord LYTTELTON was understood to say, that with
alight alterations the measure would, in his opinion,
prove beneficial.
The Earl of DERBY said that this was the same bill as
the one of last session, which was introduced by his noble
friend the Earl of Clarendon, and he had brought it for-
ward early, in order that it might be thoroughly consi-
dered. He entirely concurred in the suggestion of his
noble friend (Earl Stanhope). that there should be two
members of the House of Commons in the commission,
who could properly represent the different parties in that
house. He had not yet had an opportunity of consulting
his noble friend the Earl of Clarendon, but when they had
selected the names and learned that they were willing to
accept the office, he would mention them to the house.
Of course they would retain in the commission all the
names which were now in the bill. The bill was then
read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Thurs-
day next.
The house adjourned at twenty minutes past 5 o'clock.

THE ALARM AT CHESTER.

Mr. WARNER gave notice that on Monday next he
should ask the Home Secretary whether his inquiries into
the recent alarm :.t Chester confirmed the assertion made
in a leading article in the Mn-sing Sthe newspaper—
(laughter)—of yesterday, to the effect that the appre-
hended attack upon the castle was a hoax invented for the
purpose of drawing away the attention of the authorities
from a prise-fight en the neighbourhood; whether such
prise•fight took place, and if so, whether the parties who
propagated the hoax could be identified and, punished.
(Laughter.) He also intended to ask the right hon.
gentleman whether his inquiries into the question
of Feidaniarn led to the conclusion that the sug-
gestion thrown out in the /Mils NtIVS of the
same morning was correct, to the effect that
Fenianism was not so much an organised oompiracyagainst
the British government as a pecuniary speculation of its
leaders-(" oh, oh," and laughter)—and that the alarm at
Chester was invented for the purpose of drawing money
from the dupes in America, under the belief that they had
frightened the British government at home. (" Oh, oh,"
rind laughter.)

Messrs. P•ttenden and Smith repot no material altera-
tion in the trade during the week, prices ruling firm, with

The burning of slow matches, which consist of
tow, saltpetre, and vinegar, on board some of the West
India packets, have been found efficacious in preserving the
health of the crew■.

A BITROLAR WANTING ASAISTANCE.—An Satur-
day night last a proposed burglary was frustrated by an
accident of a serious character to the burglar, who had
been in the town only about three days, and had selected
as the scene of his operations the pawnshop of Mr. Barre%
in King Edwaril-street North. He had obtained access
to the back yard of those premises, and having got on
the roof of some out-buildings was, it would appear, at-
tempting an entrance by an upper window, when the down
spout, by which he was supporting himself, gave way, and
he was precipitated to the ground, a distance of 15 feet.
His cries soon brought a number of people, and as it was
thought be was seriously hurt he was conveyed to the hoe.
pital, where he was attended by Mr. Larnhden, surgeon.
No bones were broken, but he is not yet in a position to
be removed to his next residence, the lock•up.—Stassford
Merttery.

SPAIN AND CHILI.

Mr. HORSFALL asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs if he was aware whether Spain and Chili
have accepted the mediation of the United States, or
whether he was in possession of any information leading
to the hope that they would do so?

Lord STANLEY said the house was aware that a propo-
sition had been made by the government of the United
States having fur its object the settlement of the existing
difficulties between Spain and the South American repub-
lics. The government had not yet heard of the acceptance
of the proposition by either of the powers, but from the
general tenour of the information they bad received there
WPS fair ground to suppose that it was one that might be
accepted.
TROOPS AND ARMS AT CHESTER CASTLE.

Mr. 0. STANLEY 'eked the right hon. gentleman the
Secretary for War what was the amount of military force
at Chester Cantle on Friday last, the number of muskets,
the number of rounds of ammunition, and the store of
powder ; and further, whether it was true that Fenianism
existed to any extent among the troops there.
General PEEL said that Isis bun. friend had given him
notice of his amended question only a short time ago, but
he thought he could answer it from memory, having seen
the returns that day. With respect to the number of
troops in Chester Castle on Friday last, they amounted to
one comp Any of the 54th Regiment, consisting of two offi-
cers and 65 men. There were also one officer and 53 men
of the permanent staff of the militia. It was the inten-
tion of his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief to
relieve the Guards by a battalion of infantry, which would
be qusgtered between Weedon and Chester. The number
of muskets in the castle was about 9,000 ; there were 400
sword bayonets and 900,000 rounds of ammunition, and a
very large store of gunpowder. He had had no report
whatever of Fenianisui among the troops. (Cheers.)
Mr. WHALLEY asked the Secretary for the Home
Depsrtmcat, with reference to the recent Fenian alarm at
London, England, 1867-11-08

TEE POLICE COURTS.

LAMBETIf.

A"•m•atert Hegpa, aged9yeara, residing at No. 10, Emily-
street, Westbourue-park, and Walltr Greenwood, aged 13,
of 29, Grove-place, Lisson•grove, both very respectably
connected, were brought up on remand before Mr. Elliott,
charged with stealing an opera-glass, microscope, telescope,
globe, bottles of scent, and other similar articles, the pro-
perty of the various stallbolders at the Crystal Palace
at Sydenham.. . . . .

hfr. D. I'. Neale appeared for the prisoner Higgs, and
said that he had been informed that in consequence of the
youth of the prisoners and the respectability of their
parents, it was not intended to offer any further evidence
on the part of the prosecution, and he had therefore to ask
that the prisoner be discharged.
Mr. Elliott said he could not permit such a course to be
adopted. The respectability of the prisoners' relatives
made the case worse ; and as to their youth, they were
quite old enough to know right from wrong. He had been
communicated with by the officials of the Crystal Palace
Company, stating that they wished every case to be prose-
cuted, as the robberies had of late become most numerous.
It was therefore his intention to send all these cases for

Mr.
r.Neale regretted that such was his worship's inten-
tion, as the prosecutors were willing to withdraw, but
would produce evidence of an important character. He
then called

The Rev. W. Anthony Newton, who said be was one of
the masters of All Saints Grammar-school, Colville•road,
Paddington. Both the prisoners were pupils at that
school, Greenwood having been so for four years, and
Higgs about three months. They were both good boys,
and last term Greenwood carried off a prize. Greenwood
had become subject to epileptic fits, and since then he
could never keep his hands still and quiet, either at home
or in church or school, and one of the elder boys was
always with him. Witness believed that he would take
any article in the sight of a constable without thinking
be was doing wrong. He gave them permission to go to
the Palace, as he was given to understand they were going
with their friends.

Mr. Dearman Dewsbury and other witnesses corrobo-
rated this testimony, and the parents pee them excellent
characters.

Mrs. Greenwood said she believed her son was going
with one of the masters, or she should not have let him go.
Mr. Elliott would consider the evidence, and should
like to see Greenwood's surgeon. He should remand the
prisoners, accepting bail, which was at once forthcoming,
and the prisoners left the court with their friends.

HADIDIERSMITH.

Thossas Carter, a conductor in the service of the Lon-
don General Omnibus Company, we. summoned by Inspec-
tor Charlwood, of the X division, for delaying his omnibus
on the journey.
Police-constable Peek said the defendant stopped four
minutes in Norfolk-terrace, Notting-hill, while the driver
changed his horses, passengers being in the omnibus.
Mr. Daytnan wished to know why omnibus men were
not summoned fur delaying their vehicles while changing
horses in the Broadway, Hammersmith.
Inspector Charlwood could not answer that question,
but with regard to the place in question, he said- several
complaints had been made Of the practice of changing
horses in the street. The horses were brought there in two
or three pairs, and omnibuses were delayed on their
curries for four or five minutes, while they we changed.
If the horses were changed in the yard, the omnibuses
would be out of the way.
Mr. Dayman thought thestopping in the street to change
hones was not improperly delaying the journey. He mho
thought it would not be reasonable to expect the men to
take their omnibuses into the yards with passengers.
Four minutes was not an unreasonable time for the chang-
ing of horses, as it was not like the old coaching days. If
the men were not allowed to change in that way,
horses would have to travel from the Bank to Richmond,
and that might render the drivers liable to a charge of
cruelty to animals. He thought the changing of horses a
very properdelay, and be therefore dismissed the summons.
Thomas Pistol, a conductor in the service of Mr. New-
man, was summoned for causing his omnibus to stand
longer than necessary for taking up or setting down pas-
sengers,
The defendant said he was changing hones at the corner
of his yard.
Inspector Cbarlwood informed the magistrate that the
offence was the same as in the other ease. The summons
was taken out under the Police Act, as there were not any
passengers upon the omnibus.
The constable said it was the same plane. The omnibus
stopped three minutes.
Mr. Dayman dismissed the summons.

THE ROMAN QUESTION.

Reviewing the great events in Italy, the Timm,
assumes them to prove the backwardness of the Italian
people to work out their own salvation. Their only
chance now of obtaining the consent of France to ►
permanent settlement of the Roman question is through
Victor Emmanuel ; and if the French troops withdraw
to Civita Vecchia, which public opinion throughout Europe
demands, there will be no obstacle to friendly negotiation.
The last few weeks have rendered an early solution of the
Roman question almost essential to the peace of Europe,
and the Times thinks once more that in such a question
the great catholic powers ought to have a voice. It is not
difficult to foresee what must be the ultimate fate of the
Pope's temporal power. The vested rights of P.us IX.
may be respected, but, unless we strangely misread the
signs of our times, no future successor of St. Peter sk:',
ever wield an ear thly sceptre.
Though the Emperor's intervention has triumphed over
every obstacle, and no power in Italy can withstand his
will, yet the most devoted of his courtiers, the Dili, y
News says, has not the courage to tell him he is
the stronger for it in France or in Europe. The
French ultramontanes for whose sake be has broken
the slight remaining bonds which connected bin, with
liberal France despise him for the work, and are not
going to accept any half service. The Pope is likely to be
confirmed by what has occurred in his belief in the sir tue
of unyielding obstinacy ; and even if France, which has
broken the September convention, could aak the Italian
government to renew it, that government could not com-
ply. The Italians have just seen their countiimen
slaughtered within sight of Rome by foreign troops, and
in support of the temporal power, and their government
may not on peril of its existence enter into ►r.angcments
with France for the perpetuation of the pretended tight
under which such things can be done. It is of the
utmost importance just now that the Italians should sot
with patience and temper, and, above all, remain united.
Let Italy be only true to herself, and she need renounce
none of her hopes. To-day she suffers a foreign inter-
vention. To-morrow great powers may be asking for her
help. Her opportunity is sure to come if she will only
wait for it. In that day it will be of immense advantage
to her not to be trammelled with gratuitously assumed
engagements.

The Pont thinks it might be possible to establish the
papal sovereignty on the left bank of the Tiber, with
indisputable security and a suitable maintenance.

RI'INIA AND GREECE.

The Herald does not attach much importance to Russia's
protest on behalf of the Cretans, snd represents that
power, together with France, as retiring with dignity from
the field. England and Austria proclaim by their silence
and abstinence that they have considered it impolitic and
impertinent to intervene openly in the domestic affairs of
an independent state. There is not, perhaps, after all,
any great difference of opinion among these Christian
powers.

The Star assumes that the declaration already issued
will be followed up by other and more precise demands.
The Turkish government will probably be " recommendrd"
or " invited" to yield up Crete, and allow her to be annexed
to the Greece whose sovereign is now allied, by more bonds
than one, to the reigning house of Russia. And then
begins, like the breaking of the ice on the Neva, the grand
delxide of the Turkish Empire. Turkey hu had her day—
and made base and cruel use of it. Humanity, freedom,
civilisation will alike have reason to rejoice whenever the
hour of her fall is sounded.

ITALIAN WAR PREPARATIONS.

A Florence letter, dated Nov. 4, in the Debats,
says:

There is no fear as to the maintenance of peace unless
France should have made up its mind to provoke Italy
to the utmost, which of mime is not to be supposed.
Nevertheless it is stated, and the fact appears to be
certain, that the Italian government proposes to call out
all the troops yet remaining en eunge. Now, inasmuch
as the financial situation is not such as to permit the
luxury of any superfluous armaments, and General Mena-
bees and his colleagues are men of common sense, the
inference from these military precautions is that there
must be political complications unknown to the public.
The first claw of men on leave has already joined its re-
spective regiments ; the other will be under arms in three
or four days, and then the effective force of the Italian
army will be upwards of 200,000 men.

The Corriere Italian of Florence says that very
shortly 60,000 breech-loading muskets will be
issued to the Italian army.
The Platea of Milan publishes the following :

We are in a position to announce that the Ministry of
War has given orders to arm the Quadrilateral and store
it with provisions. Instructions have been given at Pia-
cenza and Bologna to prepare to send forty-pounder guns,
supplies, and ammunition.

CNIVERAITT EDUCATION IN IRELAND.

Observing that the system of mixed education in Ireland
was all but subverted by the unjustifiable conduct of the
late government, the Times observes that the dispute haa now
spread to primary education. Had the Roman catholic
hierarchy been really set on giving good instruction to the
people, or the catholic laity been sufficiently independent,
the systenz in Ireland would have been acquiesced in. Un-
happily the priesthood are intent on getting the whole in-
struction of the country into their own hands, and on
preventing that cordial union of catholic and protestant,
which, though harmless as regards matters of faith,
is full of peril for ideas of ultramontane supremacy. The
question is, whether we shall continue the system or capi-
tulate. In England, though the system is denominational,
the state is secular. Why should the state take up any
but a secular position in Ireland? Again, if we compare
England with Ireland, we shall see that the system of
Ireland with all its failures is in these very important
respects superior to the system in England. Its inspection
is undenominational, its training colleges are undenomi-
national. It must also be remembered that every school
in Ireland has really a conscience clause, that there is not
one of them in which it is not compulsory that the right
of the minority should be respected. What is asked is
that all these enlightened principles should be abandoned,
and we are offered as an equivalent for this great sacrifice
the prospect of conciliating the Roman catholic clergy, who
are clearly fighting, not for toleration, but supremacy.

According to the parliamentary order-book, the
Park* Regulation Bill will be continued to-morrow after-
noon in committee.

Sir Stafford Northcote will make a financial
statement in committee on Eut India Revenue Aooonnts
to-night.

CLOSE OF THE SESSION.—Lord Redesdale, as
chairman of the committees of the Rouse of Lords, signal-
ized the ►pproaching close of the present session of par-
liament on Saturday last, by the usual fish dinner at the
Trafalgar. Coma were laid for 30 guests. The ministe-
rial whitebait dinner has been fixed for Wednesday next,
at the Ship Tavern.

BOROUGH or RACRNRY.—On Thursday evening
there was a large meeting of inhabitants at Hackney to
hear an address from Mr. Charles Reed. F.S.A., who had
received a requisition signed by upwards of 1,200 electors,
inviting him to become a candidate to represent the new
borough in parliament. Meet of the leading liberals of
the locality were on the platform; and after the address it
was unanimously reeolsei—" That Mr. Reed's address was
highly satisfactory, and that he was a fit and proper per-
son to represent the constituency." The first name affixed
to the requisition was that of Mr. Samuel Morley. The
return of Mr. Reed is considered as placed beyond doubt.
Mr. Reed has now addressed eight public meetings in dif-
ferent parts of the new borough, and in all es,nly one hand
was held up against him. Mr. Charles Gilpin, the ap-
pointed chairman, was unable to attend, his presence being
required in the House of Commons.

THE REFORM BILL IN THB HOUSE OF PEERS.

There can be little doubt, in the opinion of the
Daily News, that Lord Derby tonight will urge the Peers
to exhibit one. more those moral virtues and that " ade-
quate intelligence" on which Mr. Disraeli has passed a
discriminating eulogium, and to be content with their
triumph upon the single question of the limited vote in
large constituenqjon This latter triumph is unique in
parliamentary history, for it is a victory over the solemnly
expressed convictions of the government, and of a large
majority in the House of Commons itself,and of the minis-
terial, the opposition, and the radical leaders. It is notori-
ous that nine out of ten of the supporters of the restricted
vote in the House of Lords, including Lord Russell, were
actuated by the same reactionary feeling as Lord Cairns
and the other tory peers. Mr. Mill and a handful of
younger members who rank themselves his political pupils
have alone been influenced by pure reason and a regard for
a perfect system of representation in the votes which they
have given. Mr. Mill believes that he can use the reac-
tionary prejudices of Mr. Lowe as a means towards the
establishment of a true democracy. Mr. Lowe flatters
himself that he can turn what he thinks the philosophical
crotchets of Mr. Mill to account in the support of oligar-
chical privilege. Both cannot be right ; and prudent men,
conservative or Liberal, would have hesitated before they
risked the futon good government of England on the
unionism turn ot fortune which may give the victory to
either.

The Post Olds It impossible that the Lords can
underrate the extent of the concession which has been
made to them in the Commons, and, rich being the awe,
they cannot in their torn refuse to yield &cradling to the
wishes of the Commons.

Apparently oblivious of Mr. Disraeli and all the leaders
of the conservative party, the Herald says "it is only in
tolerant bigots like the member for Birmingham—politi-
cians who find their account in trading upon the ignorance
and passions of the lower classes—who would wish that,
under the new circumstances of our representative system,
the minority should be politically annihilated, and that
the roll of the House of Commons should record the mo-
notonous expression of the will of a half-educated majo-
ray. It has been the task of the Peers to enforce this
consideration upon the attention of the Lower House, and
the sense of the latter has emphatically acknowledged its
justice. We trust that the House of Lords will rest satis-
fied with achieving this measure of good, ant will not pro-
voke a contest with the Commons upon minor points, in
which they can scarcely hope to effect a satisfactory issue.'
There can be little doubt, says the Star, that Lord Derby
will recommend the Lords to pass the bill in its present
shape without any further delay, and just se little doubt
that the house will adopt the recommendation.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE IMPRESS.

SlR,—The directors of the Crystal Palace Company
have received the following gratifying communication
from his Excellency Nomura, Pasha, the Turkish Ambas-
sador in London, accompanied by cheques for 1,0001. and
2001. :

Imperial Ottoman Embassy, July 18, 1867.

Sir,-1 am commanded by his Imperial Majesty the
Sultan to express to you and the other directors of the
Crystal Palace Company his great satisfaction with the re-
ception and entertainment which were given to his Im-
perial Majesty at the palace on the 16th instant, and with
all the arrangements made on that occasion. As I bad the
pleasure of informing yon at the time, in the palace, his
Imperial Majesty, seeing with regret that one wing of
that beautiful edifice had been destroyed by fire, was
pleased to grant the sum of 1,0001. as a contribution to-
wards its restoration. In transmitting you herewith •
cheque for that amount, I enclose also, by command of
his Imperial Majesty, a cheque for 2001., to be distributed
among the persons employed by the Crystal Palace Com-
pany on the occasion of the Imperial visit.—l have the
honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant,

CRYSTAL PALACE.—A display of fireworks and
Illumination of fountains, as on the occasion of the
Sultan's visit, takes place this evening at half-past eight.
A Doo'sripm.rrY. —A gentleman belongingto the
staff at the Royal Victoria Hospital, at Netley, took a long
walk in the neighbourhood of Southampton last week, sc.
oompoutiedbyhisclog, afine Newfoundlander. Intheevenins
he missed some letters from his coat pocket and his dog.
The latter did not surprise him, as his dog often wandered
from him in his walks. The next day the gentleman felt
annoyed and puzzled at the loos of his letters, and he
thought it possible he might have drawn them out of his
pocket with his handkerchief during his previous day's
walk. He resolved, therefore, to repeat the walk, for he
might have dropped the letters in an unfrequented path,
and they might be there still. About four m;les from the
hospital he 01111111 suddenly upon his dog lying on the
ground, with the letters close by. The dog must have
laid by the side of the letters for 16 lours, including the
whole night. The animal has been re-christened " Poet-
master-General." An artist has sketched the postmaster-
general guarding the letters.
