LADIBETTH.

Genr9,e Butler, 17 ; Titep7/;; len( n, 17 ; and Richard
Dunn, 15, were brought up in the afternoon before Mr.
Nihon, charged with attempting to pick the pockets of
several ladies and gentlemen in IVeitiniuster-road during
the progress of her Majesty to lay the foundation stone
of St. Thomas's Hospital.
Constable Morgan, 277 B, said that at one o'clock he
vas in company with Upson, 11911, in Westminster-road,
when he saw them rush into the crowd, and Dunn at-
tempted to pick the pockets of several ladies and gentle-
men, being covered by the other primnen. They left the
crowd and went down York-road, where they were stopped
and searched, and upon Butler was found two silk hand-
kerchiefs, two meerschaum pipes (one in case), a pearl
handled silver-mounted pocket knife, and a brooch. He
said he bought one handkerchief for 4.1., but could not
account for the other things.
Constable Upson, 119 B, corroborated the last witness,
and said that upon Dunn he found a new silk handker-
chief tucked up under his sleeve, and be said he had
found it. Upon Bleuey a puree, 11d., and a knife were
found.

voice and style for which he has long been renowned ; and

with all that characteristic expression which Male. linequiet

DRAMA.

NEW QUEEN'S.

The play of the Tour Nubhman, originally pro-
ducedat the St. James's Theatre,and made celebrated if not
popular by the admirable acting of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred
Wigan, waa revived at this house last bight, with the
same lady and gentleman in their original characters.
The drama, founded on a French original called Lt
I'aurre Gintilhwonic, is one of those clever but painful
elaborations of rented poverty, which are not rendered
less but sometimes more painful by artistic acting. Mr.
Alfred Wigan, in the part of the proud old marquis sud-
denly reduced to poverty, and trying to conceal his con-
dition from his only child, luta abundant scope for display.
log those powers of minute characterpainting which no other
actor seems to possess moan equal degree. Though the part is
notes varied and effective as that of the old actor in the
First Night, it belongs to the same class, and is full of
strong, though a little overstrained, pathos. Mrs. Wigan
(who made her first appearance this season) represented the
good-hearted, vulgar Madame Bonbon, with all her refined
humour and feeling, and the performance of both the
pacts evidently gave the highest satisfaction to the
audience. The piece ►ltogether was well cast and well
acted, Mr. J. Clayton making an interesting lover, bliss
Nelly Moore a more interesting and most charming Bur-
tense, Mr. W. 11. Stephens a sufficiently genial M. Rohl-
neau, and Mr. Toole a lively and characteristic country
footman. The piece is well put upon the stage, and is fol-
lowed by the drama of Dearer than Life.

THE BANQUET AT THE TRINITY-HOUSE.

TuanE is no more thoroughly English
institution than the Ancient Corporation of the
Trinity House. Lord NAPIER of MAGDALA put
this point very happily at the banquet
last night. " What strikes me most," he
said, "in the constitution of the Board is the
remarkable manner in which it has evidenced
" the power of self-government and municipal
" government in relation to a service which ex-
" tends throughout the whole world." The
Trinity House was founded and incorporated in
the reign of Hmtv VIII. as an association for
piloting ships ; it was twice re-incorporated in the
seventeenth century ; once during the last years of
CHAELLB 1., and again in the reign of JAiiza
H. Shortly after its original incorporation
three affiliated societies bearing the same name
were instituted at Newcastle, Hull, and Deptford.
The House on Tower-hill in which the banquet
was held yesterday dates from 1795. By
the Charter of the Association it is en-
trusted with the duty of licensing and
regulating pilots, of erecting beacons and
lighthouses, and of placing buoys in the chan-
nel and rivers. In Prance these great public
services are administered, of course, by the central
government, and in a manner that well deserves
the praises so gracefully bestowed by the Duke of
Exam:mos in his interesting speech. Snob
services are in fact not merely national in cha-
racter, but universal in importance. What truer
or more touching symbol of human brotherhood
and of the common charities of civilization can
there be than the lighthouse which warns the
friendly stranger and welcomes him at once P When
one, reads of the lights being extinguished
along an enemy's coasts, one seems to realise
all the barbarity and all the savagery of war. The
ancient poets Gang of inhospitable shores,
not so much with reference to the people that
inhabited them as to the cruel rocks and reefs
that swallowed up approaching ships. If it be
sound policy to make international hostility less
inhuman, why should not the Elder Brethren
of the Trinity House take the initiative of
proposing that the habit of extinguishing the
lights in war time should be abandoned ? This
would be a wider and a wiser protest in behalf of
international civilization than the agreement of cer-
tain military powers to dispense with " explosive
" missiles." It would be in harmony with the
principles put forth in favour of the lesser mari-
time states at the Congress of Paris. Nor
cupid it be objected to such a proposal that it

TWO CRUDELY BURNT TO DEATH.

Yesterday morning, about 9 o'clock, a fire wai
discovered in theworkshop of Mr. Wm. Hawksworth, cabi•
' ninetrnakerand joiner, Coldwell, Oughtibridge.Mr.ffaviir
worth sent bisects off onhorsebOt for the Sheffield engine*
but having plenty of water, he and the neighbours marl
to confine the tire to the workshop and a stable &divan'
ing, so that the house, which forms part of the suss
building, was not in any way damaged, and br the
time the engines—the Royal and Liverpool and LOCaoll—
the fire had pretty well burnt itself out. Th'
workshop contained a quantity of dry wood, two set+ of
drawers, and about a cartload of shavings, while is I
chamber overhead there was a quantity of hay, NO the
more favourable lot of materials for burning could hardij
have been collected her. The property is insured is
the Alliance office. Theme
fire, so ordinary in itself, &rim..
a melancholy interest from the circumstance of two little
children having perished in the flames. Mr. Hawk,.
worth had two little grandchildren—children of hit
two sons—staying with him. One was a girl, three rat%
and the other a boy, two years. At the breakfast hose
they went into the house with their grandfather, gal
having finished their breakfast first they ran out to Op
While their grandparents were sitting over wean'
fast they smelt fire. Mr. Hawksworth at once ran to the
workshop and found it burning, and the flames and smoke
frustrated all attempts to enter it by the door. On sealer
side of the shop there was a window, but entrance there
was also foun:imizible. In vain the ther.
sons, and the • hours tried again antfraa:dfaain 11
to rescue the who were believed to be thee,,,'
It was not until the fire was subdued that they co.-
explore the ruin, and then within a foot or two of the
window, amid tinder and mouldering wet her, thq
found the poor infanta, charred and partly communed,
locked in each other's arms. About the origin of theme
there is little doubt. It is almost certain that the
one of whom, the boy, had been warned just before 0:
to play with fire, had set fire to some shaving', and were
suffocated before they could get away.

PROFESSIONAL DRESS.

THE Lancet is daring enough to suggest that
during this intense heat, members of the medical
profession should dress in white flannel. The re-
commendation is, no doubt, reasonable, but we
question whether any medical practitioner will
venture to adopt it. Fancy paying five or ten
guineas to a physician summoned for a con-
sultation, if he appeared before you in
a straw hat., flannel trousers, and a flannel
jacket ! Every medical man knows that he
must pay strict attention to the proprieties
of his profession, and that his position might be
changed, and changed irrevocably, if he even ven-
tured to discard the orthodox chimney-pot for a
comfortable wide-awake. In fact, there is a law
in England as powerful as any in the statute
books which compels professional men to dress pro-
fessionally. The clergyman who would exercise
due influence over his flock must adorn himself in
the garb of an undertaken• ; the medical man,
although he no longer carries the golden headed
cane, must be duly attired in broad-cloth, and
a learned judge only last week declined to pay
the fees of some advocates at a county court who
did not appear before him in the recognised legal
dries. When on Born. is on his travels he re-
joices in being able to clothe himself as he pleases,
and the strange figure he presents in &witxerland
and in the Scottish Highlands shows that he can-
not safely be trusted to follow his own devices.
Be does not know how to dress with taste when
he is free to do so, and it is, perhaps, as well,
therefore, that he should be confined within
conventional limits when engaged in professional
pursuits. No doubt a light and loose attire this
weather is as pleasant to the feelings as it is agree-
able to common sense, but then unfortunately
society is not governed by common sense, and we
venture to pronounce that, if a medical man of
average reputation follows the sensible advice of
the Lancet, he will augment his comfort at tho
expense of his income.

AN IMPENDING SCOTTISH GRIEVANCE.

IF the information which has reached us be
correct—and we have every reason to believe it—
our friends north of the Tweed are about to suffer
another "grievance," and one which they will feel
more acutely even than the loss of the Eccuo
shield or the omission of the Lion's crown in the
Scottish coat-of-arms. The Braemar gathering
is celebrated throughout the kingdom. It ie held
in what in England would be a field, surrounding
Mar Castle, with the saver Dee brawling over its
pebbles and boiling over its Enna in the immediate
vicinity, and with Ben Much Dhui and

THE CRETAN INSURRECTION.

A correspondent informs us that the Cretan
insurgents have gained a victory of some im-
portance near Heracleon. He adds : " Mr.
Hilary Skinner, author of ' Roughing it in Crete,'
landed in that island on the 11th inst., in the pro-
vince of Sphakia, after successfully running the
Turkish blockade. He takes with him all that is
necessary for the establishment of a field hospital,
which will it is hoped mitigate the sufferings of
the war to Turks as well as Christians. The con-
cluding words of an address which Mr. Skinner
published on landing show that his miaaion should
be regarded as an effort to relieve the misery with
which Mr. Skinner had become acquainted during
a previous visit to the island. It is in no way a
political demonstration." We give Mr. Skinner's
address in full:

TAM rIOUSE OP LORDS AND ^HE
IRISH CHURCH.

WI ru the reception of the Quei Per answer to
the address of the House of Commons, the interest
of the situation passes onwards ts. the Ho-aie of
Lords. Mr. Disaaim has th,oight it best to
falsify the rumours which had been scattered
broadcast by his own mysterious allusions to the
possible action of the Crown. Parliament is
left free to consider " any measure relating to the
"temporalities of the United Church of England
"and Ireland that may be introdlxed during the
" present session." The success of MI. GLAD-
&Tomes Resolutions has been too decided to leave
any room for speculation as to the mode
in which the House of Commons will
deal with the measure which is the,. neces-
sary, consequence. The bill will i.e passed through
all its stages with as little delay as the forms of the
House and the action of the Government will per-
mit. It may be assumed that Mr. D Yl.aai t will
offer no serious opposition to its progress. His
position after it has been read a third time in the
House of Commons will be no aurae than it is
pow. An indication more or less that he does
not possess the confidence of the popular branch
of the Legislature is not salculatell to aisturb
his equanimity The constitutional fortitude
which can look an adverse majority of 65
in the face, and give no sign of disturbance, is
above being influenced by mere external conditions.
Mr. Disns cum's theory of politics. is modelled on
Use stoical philosophy-. The good man alone has
the right to rule, and he is the good man.
As things look at present, therefore, there will be
spa' in the tempest of party strife until the bill
reaches the House of Lords. The treatment it
• will encounter there is hardly a r t subject
for confident prediction. If the Peers simply
consult their inclination, it will no doubt be
rejected by a large majority, but it is also possible,
under the peculiar circumstances of the case, that
more prudent counsels may prevail. The bill
settles nothing. It simply leaves the ques-
tion to be dealt with in the next session of
Parliament free from those additional complica-
tions which, without 'such a measure, wonbt
be created by the mere coarse of eventb. It is con-
ceivable that even a strenuous opponent of disen-
dowmeet may admit that the present time is not
favourable for the creation of new vested interests.

Robert Peck said he was a bookbinder, carrying on bind-
WWI at 90, Bartholomew-close. The prisoner had been in
his employ as errand boy for about seven months. On
Friday he took some paper to be rolled, and a shilling to
pay for the rolling. He brought the paper back, but did
not pay for the rolling, sad when he found It out be gave
him in charge. He had not paid the boy his last week's
wages.
Mr. Alderman Gibbons said he should not ask the child
for any explanation, because he thought he had been suffi-
ciently punished. He was glad that the legislature had
stepped in to prevent boys of tender age being employed ;
but here the prosecutor took the prisoner and sent him on
business which should only have been entrusted to some-
body of much waterer years. He should at once dirchnrge
the boy.

NAPOLEON AT OftI.ZANV.

It is for the French end their neighbours, says the
Times, to make the most of the words spoken by the Rm.
parer at Orleans. For any explanation, which might bi
sought in vain there, reference is given to an article in a
NembotEcial paper, which was afterwards repti'llisheel
lin the atmireur. Referring to the explaiiaticur
j there given the Times does not profess to know
in whet the position consists which Fi0.04)11 coa-
ledam herself entitled to maintain in the world. The
tips are gone by, never to return, in which the uses of
I biatbat and Hapsburg seemed to think toe earth sot
lugs enough to bold them both. The times are den goal
,by in which a. French monarch dreamt of a revival of °lib
, old scheme of universal dominion. At the present tr.olnent
the mission of France, as of every other nation, is to keep
at home and mind her own famines,. Her place among
nations is safe enough ao long as she is satialiebt with'
the first rank ; bat she ought not to aspire to be alone in
that rank. Her geographical politic)°, her compact pope-
lation, her homogeneous nationality, and her nneilhalltl
ildvantagee of soil and climate, place her wilily above all
rivalry, and her supremacy could not be materially wrecked
by such nations as Spain and Italy flourishing side by sills
with her in the South, or by Germany rising into a e.)u-
federate state en her eastern frontier.

LORD WINCHILSEd.

WHATEVER may 'be the ultimate decision respect-
ing the poem attributed to Milton', it- has given
professional men of letters one signal advantage.
They have been favoured with a lesson in style by
Lord Wiiveuases. " Messrs. DIXON and Denison,
"the two parsons, Professor MORLEY, and the
" rest " receive a castigation from his lordship
in this morning's Times. The " frank courage"
which won the heart of Professor DAVID
MASSON, who appeared unreasonably pleased
that a real lord should use such phrases as
" off his head," is repeated to-day. The keen
satire which wounds while it scarcely seems to
touch abounds in this last production. Men whose
lives have been devoted to close and arduous study,
and whose works are the record of their labours,
are accused of " the imbecility of ignorance" ; the
poem said to be Mrixon's " provokes a fit of
" laughter at starting" (the last word, by the way,
savours more of the race-course than the study);
the noble writer has been " clumsily criticised" ;
the editor of the leading critical journal is ad-
dressed by name as the author of an " absurd and
" nonsensical paragraph" ; while such phrases as
" bare-faced blunder," " wretched mistakes,"
" conclusive evidence of forgery," " good
" GOD, what authority has Mr. DIXON for the
" libel ?" and so on, give an agreeable vivacity to
Lord Wirrenri.sEs's controversial style. Un-
happily, however, it suggests another arena. Lite-
rary argument is not usually embellished in this
florid way. The noble author of " Abd-el-Bader"
writes of MILTON and his works as if he were a
horse whose performances had not been satis-
factory, and whose owner were now attempt-
ing to enter him for stakes for which he is
disqualified. Men of letters are treated as if they
were so many jockeys and stable lads, helplessly
stupid or preternaturally given to fraud. We really
think his Lordship had better let these matters
be. The more plebeian students of ilwrow wry
be content to discuss the poem brought to light
by Professor Mosisv in their own way; and
will respectfully decline to imitate Lord WI.-
CBILALL. "Calling names" is repudiated as •
form of argument even by schoolboys, and can-
not be adopted by mature scholars even at the
instance of a poetical peer.

PARLLAIIENTARY proceedings occurring at 2
o'clock in the morning are not usually reported at
very great length. At about that hour
to-day, an attempt was made by Mr. GURNEY,
in conjunction with the Government, to
pay a Bishop of Jamaica 1,6001. a year
out of the Consolidated Fund. The true
character of the proposition was at once pointed
out by Mr. CARDWELL, Mr. Lows, and Mr. Bon-
vEitiz. The debate on the subject was ad-
journed, but the Government will try to
smuggle the project through. The Poor
Relief Bill, which got through last night, con-
tains all the religious clauses which were in Mr.
Vrturita's measure in 1865-66, and which Mr.
HARDY, now so compliant, then vehemently
resisted. The right hon. gentleman has again
been obliged to swallow his private and party
opinions, and to sanction what is, on the whole, a
pretty good bill.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT WESTMINSTER
BRIDGE.

INQUEST.—(THIS DAY.)
This forenoon, Mr. W. J. Payne, the deputy-coroner,
held an inquest at the Dee: Head tavern, Essen
Strand, respecting the death of William Bicknel4=
46 years.
The deceased was a painter, living at 30, Bermondsey-
square. Last Thureda y morning he was standing on a
swing stage suspended from the parapet of
Westminster-bridge. He was painting the parapet, and
forgot to place his left band on the guide rope ; the con-
sequence was that when the stage gave a lurch be fell
into the river.

Mr.-Holloway, surgeon, said that the skull of the de-
ceased had been fractured by his head striking against
the lower part of the bridge before he fell into the water.
The jury returned a verdict of ...Accidental death."

TILE CAVE.

IT is SunOS* to watch the scattered forces of
those who recently called themselves, or wore
called, Adullamites. The Day newspaper itself
is not more completely bankrupt than the party it
was supposed to represent. Each member of it
has drifted off according to his proclivities, some
to the congenial shades of Toryism, while others,
and these the able and influential, have returned
to the party and the principles they temporarily
forsook. Their only point in common is a repudia-
tion of unity. Mr. Roam(Ass was among the first
to discover his mistake. No sooner did the Tory
ministry show the real scope of their tenure of
office than Mr. HORSMAN found ho had been
made a eatspaw, and the views he has just ex-
pressed upon the episcopacy in connection with the
House of Lords at least prove that his present
" constitutionalism" is not of any bigoted or
tight-laced kind. Lord Eurro has been con-
sistent in his perversity, and the Conservative
party are to be congratulated upon their recruit.
His lordship's seat is being contested by Lord
WILLIAM HAY on tho invitation of the Liberals
of Haddingtonshire, and it is possible
that the House of Commons may
lose the advantage of Lord ELCHO'S
presence. A universal arbiter whose self-confi-
dence is as boundless as his judgment is defective,
and his taste and manners faulty, is the reputation
the noble lord's many ambitious efforts have ob-
tained for him. May he be happy in retirement.
Of Mr. Lows's vigorous and independent mind it
is impossible to speak save with respect.
That his views on the Irish Church coincide with
those of his party, and that his recent speeches and
his allusion to " the hour and the man " prove the
political reconciliation between him and Mr. GLAD-
STONE to be complete, is matter for hearty congra-
tulation. Lord GROSVENOR has returned to the
fold. Mr. DOULTON is exempt from criticism.
The Cave created so much noise for a short time
as to make its present utter dispersion worth
noting. But Mr. BRIGHT'S famous simile as to
the relative situations of its head and its tail is
more than nor unanswerable now. This little
clique of paladins seemed to fulfil its destiny
when it landed Stu opponents into power ; and
its members having nothing in common save a
dread of Reform have already broken up an
alliance as unnatural as it was unjust.

HOLLAND HOUSE.

DURING the last few days, an advertisement has
appeared in our journals which recals to memory
characters who have played distinguished parts
in the political and literary history of England.
The advertisement is addressed to the subscribers
to a fund collected in 1840-41 for the purpose of
raising a memorial to the late H. R. VasasL, Lord
HOLLAND, who are informed that, at a meeting
held on the 14th instant, to which the whole of
the original surviving promoters or their repre-
sentatives were invited, it was resolved to apply a
sum of 2,6001. remaining undisposed of after de-
fraying the cost of the memorial in Westminster
Abbey to the erection of a statue of Lord HOLLA_ND,
on a site offered by the present Lady HOLLAND,
in Holland-park. The concluding paragraph of the
advertisement runs thus :—"lt may be satisfactory
" for them to be informed that the original list of
" promoters above referred to comprised the fol-
" lowing illustrious and distinguished names, to
" which as is well known, many others, of diffe-
" rent political parties and religious persuasions
" throughout the country, were subsequently
" added as subscribers." The list of names which
follows comprises those of the late Dukes of
Suasza, DEVONSHIRE, BEDFORD, SUTHERLAND,
and GRArrow, Marquises of ANGLESEY, NOR-
MANDY, and BREADALBANE, Viscounts MILL-
BOURNE, IloaDsra, and PeLmnsrow, Meters.
Thomas Bemarom MAcAmer, Smarm. Ro-
om, H. Lirrnix.m., Lord JxYDERT, and
Lord BRovoßem. All these are gone from
among us, but we see many in the list still
living, notably Earl GRRY, Lord Joarr Rose=
(Earl Ressiax), Sir J. C. 110131101781 (Lord
Bioroirrom), Hon. Fox Metrus (Earl DALHOUSIE),
and Mr. ALRANY FONBLANQUE. The eight of these
great names and the recollection of the purpose
for which they were associated, takes us back to
the palmy days of Holland House, to those
wondrous gatherings which never have been
equalled in this or any other country. In the
mind's eye one can see the carelessly scattered
groups in " that old, long, unrivalled library in
" which ADDISON mused and wrote, and drank,"
as Ts.t.roriin tells us, that venerable chamber in
which as a greater than TALFOIIRD has told us,
" all the antique gravity of a college library was so
" singularly blended with all that female grace
" and wit could devise to embellish a drawing-
" room." By the aidof thosingularlygraphic power
of the same writer, Lord Mecetrisv, himself a
favourite guest at Holland House, we can picture
the scene : " How the last debate was discussed
" in one corner, and the last comedy of SCRIBE in
" another; whileWiumgazedwithearnestadmire-
" tion on REYNOLDS' BARErri; while Mecitorrosn
" turned over THOMAS AQUINAS to verify a quota-
" tion ; while TALLEYRAND relates his converse-
" tions with BARRAS at the Luxembourg, or his
" ride with Lime over the field of Austerlitz."
