THE DAY'S NEWS

The West India mail company's steamship
Parana, arrived at Southampton yesterday. She
brings the usual West India and Pacific mails, with
80,700 doltais in specie.

Mr. Robert Sidney calls attention, in a well_
considered letter, to the meeting of the General
Vestry called for the 26th inst. The appointment of
a burial board—one of its duties—is evidently of

great moment in reference to a more satisfactory
arrangement of the Cemetery question, for the
powers that will inhere in the Board under a recent
act of Parliament are considerable. The title of the
Rector to the freehold of the twenty-seven acres
purchased at Walton, which the meeting will be
called upon to dispose of, will open another delicate
question. _ _

Another letter will be found in our columns on
the Mscnaught controversy. The severity with
which the able writer deals with his opponent, the

Rev. J. B. Lowe, is evidence of itself that the source
of the evil must have been a doctrinal difference of

Our Foreign news to-day is rather gossip than
anything else. The Coronation at Moscow
furnishes the more interesting points in the
foreign correspondence of the journals, and we
may judge of its importance from the circumstance
that, iu recording the contest for Russian good will
between the French and English Ambassadors,
the Count de Morny is represented as having
one hundred bottles of Macon brought to his
door every morning for the service of his house-
hold—while Lord Granville, on his part, meets the
rivalry by presenting a hundred tall Englishmen
in rich liveries as lackeys, The only exception to
this trivial character of the foreign news, are the
reports from Naples, where an outbreak is every
day expected, and the movements of the Orleans
family.

Monsieur Thiers is announced as reaching Lon-
don on Saturday, and comfortably installed in the
Clarendon Hotel, which is to be the centre of the
Orleanist policies set on foot by the Comte de Paris

becoming of age on the 24th of this month. At
Hamburg M. Thiers has already met the young
Prince and his brother, the Duke de Chartres,
and their mother, the Duchess D'Orleans, and it is
said that the leaving that city for London has
arisen from the intimation of the town authorities,
that they would permit no publication likely to
rood accord with the present

Cotnlromise th

ince. The contingency thus foreseen
was a manifesto which M. Thiers has already pre-
pared, and which he purposes to publish on
the 24th instant. It is expected to be a document
of great political interest, and to be written in a
spirit harmonising with the political testament
left the young Prince by his father, protesting
indirectly against the fusion, while adhering to the
