Ir may seem hard to an English statesman out
of office that he cannot, like the rest of his fellow-
countrymen who happen to have leisure and
other facilities of travel, make a tour on the
continent of Europe with his family, without
being suspected of some secret political mission
from the Govenunent to which ho does not belong.
Great mon no doubt pay the penalty of greatness ;
they cannot enjoy the pleasures of obscu-
rity. The curiosity of continental chreniclera
is insatiable, and the puspleien of Italians
is not easily allayed. For example, Mr.
OSIQ F.rnetl. was reported to be very busy
making arrangements with the Pore for his resi-
dence at Malta, at the time when that amiable
but discreet diplomatist was enjoying his annual
leave of absence in England. Last year,
indeed, there was perhaps some excuse for the
extraordinary irritation of foreign, and especially
Italian curiosity, with regard to the movements
of English statesmen and diplomatists. No less
than three ex-C.ibinet Ministers were staying in
Horne at the same time. Of these Mr. GLAD-
:4ONT. was perhaps the most conspicuous mark for
the inventive genius of correspondents. It was
seriously rumoured at Florence that the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer of the PALMERSTON and
RUSSELL Cabinets was negotiating, with a view to
his own political future at home, some sort of
compromise injurious to the claims of Italy on
the Roman question, in return for the support of
the Ronum Catholic Church and party in Ireland.
Such a transaction on the part of so distinguished
a friend of Italy was spoken of with bitter regret
by there who believed in it, and then was scarcely
an Italian who had the simplicity to suppose that
Mr. Gcaterrox .t could possibly go to Rome for the
sake of change of scene and air after the exhaust-
ing labours of a parliamentary session ; or that on
his release freti the cares of office he had sought
for repose of mind and body amidst scenes
and treasures the most refreshing to a
richly club vatA scholar and lover of art.
During his stay at Rome it was natural enough
that an English statesman should pay his respects
to the reigning Sovereign whose temporal ad-
ministration he had often severely criticised, but for
whose spiritual office and character he could not but
entertain respect. This interview, which was really
an affair of a few minutes, and an exchange of the
meet ordinary courtesies, was interpreted by the
combined ingenuity of the Catholic and the Liberal
press of Italy es a solemn recantation by Mr.
GLADSTONE of his past errors, and a gracious
admonition from the HOLT FATHER. It never
occurred to these chroniclers that MT. GLADSTONE
would be as little disposed to touch upon any
political topic with the Pore as the Pope with
him, and that English statesmen out of office were
not in the habit of committing themselves or their
country to a policy over which they had no
control. So pertinacious and ao circumstantial
were the reports, that Mr. GLADSTONE at length
thought it necessary to contradict them. Lord
CLARENDON, who also visited the Poe; and who
was charmed with his reception, was, somehow or
other, more indulgently treated by the chroniclers
last winter. But Lord CLARENDON has had
the temerity to go to Rome two winters
following, and now it is his turn to be treated by
all the European press as a sort of free companion
of diplomacy, receiving confidences in Paris,
charged with messages of conciliation and warning
to Florence, and saying smooth things at the
Vatican.
We daresay no man is more innocent of all that
is attributed to him as the secret envoy of the
British Government than Lord CLARENDON him-
self. The British Government is not in the habit
of superseding its official and accredited diplomatic
representatives, or of doubling them by personal
agents, as the Emperor NAPOLEON has sometimes
done. The chiefs of the regular diplomatic ser-
vice of this country are supposed to be in posses-
sion of the entire confidence and authority of her
MAJESTY. When a special mission is sent to any
court or government it is avowed and recognised
as such. Nor is there anything in the existing
relations between England and France, or
between England and Italy, that requires,
or warrants, more than the usual reserve.
But we need not affect to deny that
of all our statesmen, in or out of office, Lord
CLARENDON is the one whose faits et grates at this
conjuncture are meet susceptible of ingenious mis-
representatiou. Although out of office and a
Whig, he is, not very distantly, allied with the

WHEN Dr. 3111.mAN was appointed Bishop of Cal-
cutta, a rumour was industriously circulated thathe
was not only a High Churchman, but a Ritualist. If
he carried out to India any tendency to go too far in
that direction, a brief resijence in that country
shoulti suffice to show him that nowhere would its
indulgence be more detrimental to the interests
of the Church of England. A Calcutta corre-
spondent, writing by the last mail, relates
that a young chaplain at Fort William Church
gave so" high" a character to the service there that
it proved too much for the staunch Protestantism
of the GOth Rifles, who denounced it as Romiah.
Their mere opinion might have been deemed of
little consequence ; but 100 of them straightway
requested their commanding officer to set them
down as Presbyterians, for the purpose of being
marched in future to another place of worship.
Ultra-ritualists will see in this practical protest
only another form of what they are in the
habit of styling the " aggrieved parishioner nui-
" sauce ;" but the Bishop will, no doubt, keep
the zeal of his young friend within bounds, and,
under his management, the 60th Rifles may yet
prove good churchmen. But a warning has been
given. The Presbyterian churches of Scotland are
careful to send to India as chaplains and ministers
men well able to keep together the congrega-
tions which they attract. It would be well for
the Church of England at home if the practical
condemnation of extreme ritualism always assumed
a form as tangible as this. No doubt many a dis-
gusted churchman does openly go over to some non-
episcopal communion ; but in a majority of cases,
where the alternative of a neighbouring church
with a sober liturgical worship does not present
itself, we suspect that the indisposition to make a
second start in ecclesiastical life prevails ; a voice
whispers that the ALMIGHTY is as much in one place
as in another, and that the prayers and lessons can
be read just as wall at home—which they are once
or twice, until the habit of public worship is coin-
Italy lest.

The Post describes the late night fete of the Skating
Club in Paris, and uks why something of the same kind
cannot be done in London. It would be no slight relief,
after being boxed up in offices, banks, and counting-house
all day, to have a little healthful sport in the evening,
instead of " cramping our knees and straining our eye-sight
in those modern stooks,' the stalls of ill-built theatres ;
and sitting bolt upright, choked by white handkerchiefs,
and silent as mutes for four hours at a time."
The Star censures the Working Men's Conservative
Association for seeking to claim as a party right the honour
of protesting attachment and pledging devotion to the
Queen. Demongration against Fenianinn is to the Star's
mind very like &demonstration that two and two make four.
Lying is hateful, treason is hostile to the well-being of a
state, murder is sanguinary, but one doe not engage
Exeter Hall and invite Lord Mayors to assist at emphatic
declarations of these universally acknowledged facts.
The Telegraph says the statesman who shall secure for
as the cordial alliance of the American nation would
confer upon us, upon the United States, and upon
humanity a greater boon than the appeasement of twenty
European disputes or the arrangement of twenty European
questions. The polities of Paris, of Vienna, of Constan-
nople, and of Rome—seats of empires and powers that
have already begun to decay—are the mere ephemera of
diplomacy, compared with the relations between us and
our great cousins across the Atlantic.
The Herald, commenting on Americanpolitks, says that
the submission of the South was simply an accident, and
that its own prophecies as to the result which would follow
the war have been more than realised.
The Times publishes to-day an address of French demo-
crats, including M. Albert, formerly member vi the provi-
sional government, M. Greppo, Felix I'yat, and others,
protesting against the execution of the three Fenian, at
Manchester, who, they contend, were punished simply for
insurrection against tyranny. In this document they my
" the political scaffold in England in the 19th century is
an anachronism and a folly. We ought to expect that the
English government being the most practical would be the
most wise—that a constitutional government being the
strongest would be the most mild —that the government of
a woman would be the most humane. Bat in the presence
of these three victims we are forced to the conclusion that
the protestant papacy and the catholic papacy are pretty
natal on a par. There is the same intolerance, the same
inhumanity—they differ as to government, but agree as to
the hangman."

THE first Report of the Clerkenwell Explosion
Fund Relief Committee is a long document, and

- - _
contains many interesting facts ; but we do not find
in it that which Mr. DMsa►ani and the public have

tritt (curt.

The Queen, accompanied by Princess Louise,

inty walked and drove this morning with Princess
Sentries, attended by Mims Alice Van de Weyer.

been asking for—adatement, approximate of course,
but positive, of the amount of money required to
enable the Committee to complete its work. Up
to the present time only 7,143/. have been sub-
scribed, a sum which neither duly expresses the
spripathy of the public with the sufferers, nor is
adequate to the relief of their necessities. We
fear that precious time is being wasted. The
money already subscribed will do little more
than satisfy claims for immediate assistance,
including the purchase of tools, working
material, and furniture for those who have
lost home and the means of earning • live-
lihood. There remain to be dealt with more
than 150 cases of personal injury, for all of which
some compensation ought to be given, while for
many a life provision more or less complete will
have to be made. The proportion of female suf-
ferers is unusually large, and all of them were de-
pendent on their own exertions for a living : four
of these have lost eyes ; others have been maimed or
terribly shaken, and will never again be what they
were. The revolting barbarity of the outrage
comes out in strong colours in the Report of Mrs.
BATLEY, who has given her attention to the mater-
nity cases, and who reports no fewer than twenty-
six instances in which injury has been done to
mothers and their infants. We trust that the sub-
scription list will be raised to an amount equal to
the exigencies of the case before some new catas-
trophe comes to divide public attention with the
consequences of the Clerkenwell explosion.
