ARMY REFORM.

once a tyrant and a cringing toady. There is no
hope of Army Reform from such men. Sir JoKe
PAKINGTON may get his bills for the present year ;
they will be in every sense of the word harmless.
But a new Parliament will have to introduce a
new system. It will have to strike at the root of
ancient prejudices and privileges, to recognise no
privilege but that of serving the country, and no
reward save that which true merit has won. When
this is done the question of Army recruiting and of
an Army reserve will be solved.

Si JOHN PAILINOTON and Lord ELCHO, on
Thursday night, had an opportunity of pressing
the two extremes of the professional doctrine res-
pecting the army. Lord ELceo, it is true, is
modest enough to profess that he is no soldier,
but only a volunteer, but he never loses an oppor-
tunity of importing into military discussions the
experiences drawn from the tented field of Wim-
bledon and the severe campaigns of the London
Scottish. Sir JOHN PAILNOTON is also better
known as yet in the capacity of a naval than of
military administrator, but he has shown an apti-
tude for expounding the traditions of the Horse-
guards such as would be creditable in a veteran
commissary. These opcoeing authorities brought
before Parliament their respective schemes for
placing our defence on a level with the forces of
Prussia or France. Lord ELCHO declares that
nothing less will serve than the conscription. His
volunteer experience in drill satisfies him that
men can be made into soldiers in far shorter time
than the Horse-guards demands, but his amateur
acquaintance with war convinces him that, unless
we pass in succession all the males capable

Dr. Dliathome, Roman catholic bishop, was examined,
and having in reply to the chairman explained the differ-
enoe between the jurisdiction of vicars and =c—of
whom he had been one--and bishops in , pro-
ceeded to say that the bishops exercised no temporal audio-
rlty whatever. The document appointing the vicars apos-
tolic did so expressly in respect of the cat olic flock only.
and the same observation applied to the document cresting
the hierarchy. He had had a great deal to do with the
negotiations which resulted in the establishment of the
hierarchy, and could elate that the utmost wee taken
to avoid • °sadist with Inglah manila cad
dace:After the Reclesiestical Titles Bill had passed, a
Mon was steed by about 400,000 Roman catholic laity to
the effect that the creation of the hierarchy was a purely
spiritual act, and that it conferred no temporal authority.
Before the document was signed by the Pope be (Dr. Ulla-
thorns) came to England and consulted the bishops, all of
whom were Englishmen, as to its contents, so anxious were
they all not to do anything that was adverse to English opi-
nion. There could be no hierarchy without local title. To
give up their title and to cortinne Mama would be
simply impossible. The local title limited jurisdiction.
It was essentially a matter of conscience and a theological
matter. We have never believed in the validity of the
Anglican orders. We could not recognise them as an
episcopacy, and those of the Anglican clergy who form
our chorale are invariably re-ordained- We have nothing li
to do with the Anglican bishops, or they with 41. From
their high position, and the respect they are held in by
their flocks, we Melt them with every courtesy, but when
it comes to the question are they duly qualid bishops,
we cannot recognise them am such.
Mr. Walpole—Then the establishment of the Roman
catholic hierarchy in this country was • negation of the
church of England.—lt was perhaps virtually.
How do you reconcile that negation with the fact that
the united church of England and Ireland is recognised in
acts of parliament ?—Thos act. were probably pamed by
members of the Anglican church. We recognise the
existence of a church of England, which is believed to be
a true church by its members, but we do not admit that
it is so. The establishment of a hierarchy was the recon-
struction of the old vicariates. The hierarchy were
merely to exercise spiritual jurisdiction over their own
flocks. Wealth has been accumulated by the Roman
catholic church, but that church will contrast favourably
with the established church in that r
Mr. Paull—ls it not also the rot
yof the Roman
catholic church to obtain from persons who are sick or in
extremia, bequests!
Dr. Llhithorne—To the extent to which the church
requires it, but certainly not to any improper extent. I
have myself discouraged the disposition of persons to give
I property to the church away from their children.
li To the Chairman—We are satisfied with the spiritual
power that we have ; but what we require is that we
' should be freed from the stigma which the act puts upon
us. It has had a bad moral effect, and renders a catholic
bishop little better in law than an outlaw. We cannot
surrender our bishoprics even if we desired to do so.
The Chairman—Would it remove the difficulty if the
law were so amended as to make legal the title, "Roman
Catholic Archbishop of Birmingham, for instance
Dr. tlllathorne—The phrase would be incorrect. There
is but one " Roman " bishop, and he is the Pope. There
is but one "catholic" or universal bishop, end he is also
the Pope. All other bishops are of limited spiritual juris-
diction, and that jurisdiction is defined by the local
The Anglican bebop would sign himself—say, "James,
London." A catholic bishop would sign himself, "James,
Bishop of London." The phrase, " Amnon catholic faith
is correct ; but that is a different thing to that which is
implied by " Roman catholic" prefixed to the title of •
bishop. Had no objection that parliament should make it
legal that catholic bishops should be described in deeds,
wills, and other documents, as "Roman catholic bishop"
of such • place ; but they would not so describe them-
selves. _ _

of bearing arms through the ballot for
the Militia, our safety and our prestige are gone.
Sir JOHN PAKINOTON, on the other hand, main-
tains that what we require is a reserve of old
soldiers, and he thinks that 20,000 of these, com-
posed of men who, on returning from foreign ser-
vice, are willing to exchange the remaining term
of their enlistment, if not more than four years,
for a double period of service in the reserve, to-
gether with 30,000 more, composed of militiamen
enlisted for this special service, and of pensioners,
would give us the force which would place Eng-
land in security, and enable her to assert her dig-
nity in the possible contingencies of continental
politics. The one is all for numbers ; the other
is all for prolonged drill. And these, as we have
said, represent the two extremes between which
the military and official mind oscillates.
We may drop out of view Lord ELCHO'S demand,
because at present there is small chance of its being
treated by any one as practical. We are at peace,
and our declared intention is to remain at peace,
and it will be hard to persuade us that we cught
to put in force those extraordinary forms of arma-
ment which have hitherto been resorted to only in
the last extremity of mortal war. But in discuss-
ing the more moderate counter propositions of the
Government, there is a difficulty which is entirely
of their own creating. They have brought in two
bills for the carrying out of their designs, but
in criticising these Lord ELMO was stopped by the
intimation that part of them was to be abandoned.
Yet Sir JOHN PAILINGTON, in his own statement,
failed to tell the House what the dropped provi-
sion is. We learn, indeed, that he has in ore
paint departed from the scheme of his predecessor
at the War Office. But this is on the minor
question of whether the regular soldiers who
accept a double service in the reserve in lieu of
their final four years with their regiments shall be
attached to the Militia, as General PEEL proposed,
or to the pensioners, as his successor has deter-
mined. In this obscurity, we must take the
Government plan as in the main that which it ap-
petted to be at first. Its leading feature is that,
if entirely successful, it would give us a reserve
of 50,000 men, at an annual cost of 230,000!.
The rate is moderate enough, but the question is
whether the men are to be had at the price.
It should not be forgotten that the method
of forming a reserve out of old soldiers has
already been tried in this country with absolute
failure. Lord HERBERT in 1869 established such
• reserve, into which men who had served
their full period were to be enticed to enter
by high bounties, and by the security that in
no case should they be sent out of the
country. But the enticement failed. The men
would not accept these conditions. Sir JOHN
Pmetworow now proposes to offer them the boon
of commuting the last years of their regular ser-
vice for s double period in the reserve. But, on
the other hand, be seems to propose a smaller
bounty, and to impose the obligation of being sent
out of the country if war breaks out. It may be
doubted whether these modifications will not over-

Kr. Chatterion—Would you wish the bishop of the
united church of England and Ireland to give up the word
" catholic' "—I would not ask them to give up seythiag.
To the Chairmen—Any attempt to make the catholic
bishops all themselves " Roman catholic bishop" of such
• place would be an attempt to limit them, and to deny
their universality.
Kr. Paull—You use the word universality. Do you
claim spiritual jurisdiction over all the people in your
diocese?

Dr. flllathorne said his jurisdiction only extended over
extholics, but, as he had before explained, those who were
baptized and died in a state of grace, although not in out-
ward communion with the church, would be saved.
The committee meet on Tuesday next to consider their
report.

THE REFORK LEAGUE AND THE ROYAL PARKS
BlLL.—Last night an adjourned meeting of the council of
the Reform Lieges was held in the offices, Adelphi-ter-
race, for the purpose of taking steps in reference to the
Royal Parks Bill; Mr. Reales, the president, occupied the
chair. The Chairman mid the bill in Its amended shape
was worse than in its original shape, and his opinion was
that it deserved to be kicked out of the House of Commons
as a moat determined and gross insult to the people, and
as conferring powers of a vague and general character.
Mr. Langley read the following :—" The executive have
had under their anxious consideration the proposed meet-
ing in Hyde-park to protest against the Royal Parks Bill,
and are of opinion that the discussion of the question
should be deferred to give to the executive time to carry
oat other plans to cause the withdrawal of the bill, and
failing success in carrying out such plans they will organise
a meeting in the Hyde-park on Monday week, or earlier if
necessary. At the same time the executive hope that the
Meads of reform outside the league who have intimated
their intention to hold • demonstration on Sunday will
suspend for the present their action in that matter until
other modes of eliciting public feeling have been ex-
hausted." A resolution approving of the recommendation
of the executive was then put and agreed to. The Chair-
man said they must act on the declaration of the Chancel-
lor of the Exchequer on the previous night, which they
took as a sort of gauntlet thrown down to them, and de-
pend upon it it would be taken up. After the disposal of
some unimportant business the proceedings terminated.
A STRANGE CRAFT.—SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY.
Last evening • strange craft was seen coming up South-
ampton water with the Yankee flag flying. It came to an
anchor at the mouth of the Itoben river. On the custom-
house officers getting near, they found it to be a raft, 23
feet long, 12i feet wide, and three feet out of the water,
on which three seamen bad crossed the Atlantic ocean in
43 days. On examining this raft, it was found to be most
ingeniously constructed. Three indiarubber tubes, covered
with canvas, and shaped like monster cigars, were laid and
fastened side by side. These tubes were filled with air by
means of bellows. The tubes were covered with planks,
which formed • deck. On this deck a small water-tight
tent was erected. Two perpendicular sliding boards formed
• keel, the deck Oinks were neatly fastened
together with strong ropes. A sort of outrigger
steerage apparatus at one end and a bowsprit at the
other distinguished the stern from the bow, and two
masts rigged formed the propelling apparatus. An oil
lamp was the only means on board to procure artificial
light and fuel. The daring fellows who have ploughed
the ocean in this remarkable craft state that they have
experienced a fortnight's bad weather, but that the con-
veyance proved an excellent sea raft and that they have
never got wet from salt water. To look at it it seems the
most buoyant thing that wal ever launched. The owners
of it are st to mom the Channel, and ascend the Seine
to Paris. A raft boat made upon the same principle as
the raft itself is attached.

power the temptation which is offered of quitting
regular service at an earlier date. But in our
view the idea is founded on inaccurate notions
respecting the soldier's real wishes. If he desires
to leave the service, it is almost always because he
sees some better opening. But the occupation he
has in prospect may very probably be entirely in-
compatible with liability foreight years to occasional
drill, and to possibly renewed foreign service.
In such a case two alternatives will present
themselves to his mind. The one will be to remain
with his regiment, because he cannot honestly
better himself by enlisting in the reserve. The
other will be to enlist in the reserve, with the
intention of getting out of his regiment, and
of not fulfilling his obligation to give the com-
muted service. It is true that he will then be
liable to be treated as a deserter, and this we pre-
come is the motive for classing such men with the
pensioners rather than with the militia. But
nothing is easier than to evade discovery as a
deserter when once the regimertal trammels are
severed. A change of residence, of name, of
beard, and of complexion will enable the reserve
man to abandon his intermittent service at his
pleasure. The result then will be that we shall
not get honest men to enlist in the reserve at all,
ant that the dishonest will fail us when we want
them.

All these petty schemes, these shufflings of
extra twopences and special bounties, these com-
plex cuttings off of a year here to add it on there,
these bribes to militiamen and temptations to
regular service men, are the feeblest possible
methods of dealing with the problem. But from
a Tory Government we can hope for nothing better
than feebleness in dealing with any Army ques-
tion. The interests of the ruling class are bound up
in the maintenance of the status quo. It is they
who have established a system under which every
battalion has one-third more officers than those of
Prussia or France, or even Italy. It is they
who have m►de promotion depend on money. It
is they who divide among themselves all the good
things of the service, and who make the rise of
merit alone so rare that it is a matter to be won-
dered and pointed at. It is they who insist on sub-
jecting the veteran to the sameroutine of elementary
drill as the recruit, who forbid to the soldier any
practical appeal or escape from gross oppression,
who permit language that galls and maddens the
honourable, and that hardens and embitters the
reprobate; who draw a line that seems to mark the
private soldier as a being of a degraded race, and
tends to make the non-commissioned officer at
