A new tory weekly journal is announced. The
Monitor is the title of a " Wednesday review of politics,
literature, science, and art," which will " faithfully re-
present constitutional principles, and boldly apply than to
the consideration and criticism of passing events."
A medical tutor writes to the Times on the
"increasing demoialisation" of medical students. In
many of the medical schools in London, he says, not the
least discipline is maintained, and so much anxiety exists
on the part of certain professors to retain students to
the particular institution with which they are connected,
that the grossest misconduct, the most open impertinence,
and the lowest ruffianism are tolerated. The writer
urges the formation of a committee of teachers
who shall agree to some general rules of disci-
pline, resolving that when a student is expelled from
any one of their colleges by reason of his misconduct, he
shall be considered as ineligible for admission into any of
the other London hospitals. The " Medical Tutor " also
urges that a little more decency should be enforced in
dissecting rooms, and that " dissecting-room porters should
not be permitted to throw about dead bodies as if they

were bale of sawdust."
The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Herald
writes:—" The ball at the palace yesterday (Sunday)
evening was extremely animated, and dancing was kept up
to an unusually late hour. It was half-past 2 before the
company separated. All the diplomatio eorps were
there as well as the foreign visitors, including tho
Prince of Wales and several gentlemen of his
suite. They did not all go, probably because it was Sun-
day ; but the Prince has not allowed his national habit+ to
into:fere with the usual course of festivities here. The
Prince danced a great deal, and he was even persuaded to
try the Mazourka—the lively dance with which ever/ ball
is brought to a conclusion."
At a meeting of the demonstration committee
held on Saturday night, it was stated that es Sir Richard
Mayne had declined to afford any special facilities to the
committee who have the management of the procession,
application should be made to the Rome :Secretary for his
authorisation to swear in 1,000 special constables, selected
from the various trades, to preserve order on Monday, the

:ird of December.
TOR :.lEMBERB FOR DERBY AND REFORM. —The
members for the borough and county of Derby were enter-
tained at a civic banquet a night or two ago, and made
some remarks upon political topics. Mr. Bass said he
thought that Mr. Bright had somewhat disparaged the
House of Commons, of which he was so conspicuous a .
member. He could say that it would be difficult to gather 14
together men more able and competent to do the work of the
country than those whom they now found there. His notion I,
was that after they had got reform there would be pretty 5,
much the same sort of members sent to the house as now.
Doubtless their complexion might be coloured by those
who sent them, and men might become more extreme than
they are now. With respect to the prospects of reform,
the honourable gentleman said he was in London a few
days ago, and he saw a member of the house, who was in
the confidence of those now in power, and he told
him that Lard Derby would introduce a reform
bill, and it would be one that would deserve the
careful consideration of parliament. The government
said if they found it necessary to make a change, they
would do it in a workmanlike manner, and so that it would
satisfy all classes for a long period. Mr. Cox, in his speech,
said, No man can stand up more firmly for the working-
classes than I do, and I would take care that they had a
good day's pay for a days work, but I firmly believe if
trades unions are allowed to go on (which I hope and trust
they will not be) that they will drive our legitimate trade
over the sea." Mr. Evans expressed his belief that the pre-
sent ministry would introduce a reform bill, and was of
opinion that the best policy, ns well as simple justice, was
to give any preposition they made fair and unprejudiced
consideration.
A PHOTOGRAPH OF A BD; Hor.—l have before
me a photograph of one of the most active of our
bishops, one who I am sure would publicly deny that
he in any way countenanced ritualism. I am, however,
of a very different opinion ; I believe his peculiar action in
the matter in his diocese, and the countenance he has
given elsewhere to those who do favour it, has done a
great deal to promote it. His portrait (price Is. Cal.) goes
far to confirm me in my opinion. He is represented in full
robes, in his left hand a lofty, most ornate crozier, or pas-
toral staff, his right hand is raised, the fingers positioned,
according, I presume, to some episcopal Directorinut ;
the li tie finger and the next turned into the palm of
the band, to meet the thumb, the two other fingers
held up, but slightly curved. I am particular in detail,
because it is quite clear he stood for his likeness in the act
of giving the blessing, and the whole representation is just
that of a bishop of the cistern or western church performing
that act ; it is episcopal ritualism, from life.
tunate as List received that blessing thus caught by sun
power in its giving Ido not care to publish. I have some
acquaintance with this bishop. I and all his friends must
regret the severity the treacherous operation threw into
his usually benign countenance ; if Brisk the son of Zip-
poi had seen Balsam so limned be would have scarcely asked
him to denounce, not bless ; the Prophet blessing would
have been a terror.—S. G. 0. in the Trines.
