REPRESENTATION OF STOKE-UPoN-TRENT.--Mr.
lieresfonl Hope, M.P. for Stoke-upon-Trent, would seem
to have decided upon abandoning his constituency, for be
has written to the 11.A.'s of Cambridge University RAU;
for their support "in case, as is rumoured, the Solicitor.
General should be raised to the bench." The lion. mamba
has not communicated on the subject with his conatitu•

ment, to elect Mr. George Melly, of Livorpool.—Post.
IMPROVEMENTS AT ETON.—Great alterations and
improvements are being effected at the Cuckoo Weir
bathing pbsce of the Etonians, near Leochridge end Upper
Hope. The ground next the shore is being lowered to a
level with that on the other aide of the stream, and with
the earth thus obtained an embankment is being thrown
up, which will screen the bathers from the gaze of the
passers-by on the footpath and in the neighbouring burs
piles and planking will be placed along the water's edge to
prevent the action of the current on the land in tlood time.

A ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIEM' oN THE SUSIECT
OF FENIANISIL—A long letter was issued on Saturday
by Mr. Waterworth, a leading Homan cathoho
plant at Worcester, on the subject of ',subtilises
and its supposed adherents, which has excited
some attention. He alleges that the Fenian are "in
open war with the catholic church," and that therefore
they are opposed by all catholic.. As to the cause of her
rebellious proceedings, he declares that foreigners affirm
" that Lords Rumen and Palmerston were the open
factors of foreikpi rebellion;" that they fat, d and praised
and almost idolised that sad origiaator of Italian misery,
misrule, rebellion, sacrilege, and blasphemy ; that foolish
man Garibaldi." Irishmen knew what had been done and
said in favour of rebellion, and in justilimition of the
a.uuroption of democracy over thrones and all consti-
tuted authorities. They ash why they who were once
a nation should not be an independent people again. "le
that forbidden to us in ilia hour of our discontent and
misery which is allowed to the Neapolitan and Sicilian, to
the Florentine and the Pormese Duchies! England told
teem totree themselves. Why ere we alone inhibited from
claiming for our people tedeperideime and an Irish throne?'
He sidle that what is being done here in the way of pre-
caution is " inconsiderate and mischievous under the air-
cutustancea" He adds, " There is not—l am sure of
this—there is not a single Irishman, or Irishwoinan, oe
Irish child reeident in thin city who has rho remotest ODD.
flexion with Fenianism. There is not one who does not
detest it." A meeting of Roman catholic. ii talked of.
THE FENLaNE AT CORIL—Tvro kegs of the
powder stolen at Cork were dug up on Saturday evening

cover more. At 2 o'clock on Saturday loorn a sentry
at Beazer's Bush Barracks, near Dublin, gave an slam,
and informed the guard when it turned out that he bad
seen a man on the wall next the canteen. The guard, on
proceeding to the place, observed a number of men retreat-
ing across the field in the direction of 11.ilrebridge, and
on searching found Fenian documents. Orders were given
to have sentries posted round the exterior of the bursas
in future.

magistrates, clergy, geahry. and tradesmen, in testimony

sistency of conduct in the pariah.

GOOD PRICE FOR A BULLOCK'S HEID.--WO kola
that Mr. 11Torabie's black polled ox, which won so
many prises at the Birmingham and Smithfield shows,
and which weighed alive 2,588 pounds, and whose dead
weight was 1963 pounds, was likely to give some trouble
even after his post mortem had been performed. The
salesman, in d*e6ng of the ox, conditioned that the
head was to be returned to the breeder. Some little
timappewtsaia before the heed wee claimed, and then it
that the Wisher maintained that, though be
had to girdle beak the bead, it was notwithout remuneration,
which not been tied,
and declined for the time at
least, to give it up under 1,0001. The telegraph communi-
anted the damn' to the North, but of course Tillyfours
though degrees of perusing the head of so wonderful so
animal, declined he pay the pekoe fixed he the butchers
Finally the latter abated his most extraordinary demands
and the heed was secured for Tillyfonr, but at a price much
above what many farmers would presently be glad tose
for the entire of Kane el their heat bulloakh—Bosif
