RLISLE PATRIOT.--Weekly: Friday a,nciSatur-
.
day, in eight pages, 48 columns. The largest Paper in
the .girth of k.higland. Stampod. sheet, 4d. ; unbtamped ditto,

Conservative. Established in;1815. Circulates in Cumber-
land, Westmoreland, Nortirtumberlatid, Durham, North Lan-
cashire, n to a considerable :extent in the Southof Scotland:
The distinguishing features of !...bis jotmal are originality,
copious reports of public proceedings, early political intelli-
gence from authentic and influential sources, and assiduoe,s
attention to local news.

The Patriot is largely patronise44n the upper walks of lire,
by the clergy, professional men, and,:in fact, by persons engaged
in every kind.of pursuit; having. an, extensive advertising con-
nection, its large and varied circulation enabling it to do ample
justice to all,
Its Conservatism, though decided, la not exclusive'. The
columns of the earlisle Patriot are, and ;have ever been, open
to all persons, and -parties having any pretensions to address
the public on local or general topics.
Printed and published by Robert Perring and Henry Scobell
Perring, at the Patriot Printing-office, Carlisle, where orders
and advertiiemeuts ere received ; by al4he regular agents

Birmingham, and in every town in the peculiar range of its
distribution.

THE HEREFORD JOURNAL -is the
OLDEST NEWSPAPER in the county, and one of, the,
°Meet in the-Kingdom. It circulates principally in the Coun-
ties of Ilereford, Radnor, 141onmouth,, Worcester' Gloucester,•
Brecon., and Salop, and generally throughout 'thePrineipality.'
A continuous effort is being made to render it worthy, both
an organ of Local Intelligence and as a compendium of Ge-
neral NCNSI, of the county and district it claims to represent.
The Editorial, "Reporting, Comn.ercia.,
and Corresponding
departments have recently been thoroughly revised,: and com-
prelvnisive arrangements made for enhancing its general effi-
ciency, both, as medium of_ local and, mercantile intercom-
munication.
:The .31EREFORD , JOURNAL is printed- on. a DOUBLE
SHEET, and has a good bona fide circulation amongst the
mercantile acrd moneyed classes of the wide district, through
which it is knolvn. It is, therefore, an excellent medium for
ADVERTISING; and, with the view of keeping pace with the
requirements of the times, Ailvertisements are inserted at
moderate charges. To persons seeking situations, and 'gentle-
men requiring s,..rvants, it offers considerable advat4agai, this
class of AdVertiseinents being charged lower than by any other
newspaper in the district. Price R.l. ; stamped, "oti. Published

EXTRAORDINARY AND 'USEFUL INVENTIOY.—There is nothing
that housewives' complain of with greater truthfulness than .
the breaking of some favourite piece of glass, valuable china,
or earthenware. In hundreds of casei;such tiling cannot be
matched, and of course cannot' be mended. The latter want.
has been obviated by .an.e.Xtraordinary and effective invention,
by Mr. Adshead, of Derby Pottery, near Derby. It is a cement
that may be said to _heal in a perfect- manner, all cracks and
breaks, in the articles spoken of, and not only in these, but in
marble, alabaster, &c.. 'The_ benefit of this article need not be
dwelt on. We have seen some of its effects at Mr. Hall's, our
neiglabour's' and -the glass that has been cemented by it is
stronger in that part than in any other. The article is very
cheap, and no house can be long .without it.. Mr. Hall .is the
agent for its sale in Liverpool, and all interested, can -judge for
theinselve4 by looking in -at his establishment. Agent for

MUSICAL, DRAMATIC, LITERARY AND
I ARTISTIC GOSSIP.

A member of the, orchestra at this year's Handel Fes-
tival engages us (Athenceuin) to urge the committee to
activity in the distribution of the commemorative medal,
which, he says, has not reached the members of the
band.

Foreign papers mention that Herr Marschner has re-
ceived an invitation from New York, to go thither, for
the purpose of superintending the production of his
operas, and assuming the direction of a new Philhar-
monic Society.

The Campbell's American Minstrels have proved very
successful at the St. James's Hall. We perceive that
Mackney has joined the troupe.
Perhaps the best form of argument to be offered to the
managers of the theatres, says the Critic, is that which
addresses itself to their purses. The present state of
things is undoubtedly reactive. Bad pay produces tad
pieces, and these again bad houses ; so that the managers,
in paying their authors badly, 'deny themselves the
chance of making good profits. And yet some of these
gentlemen, who will grudge to pay an author £lOO, will
cheerfully spend £2,000 in the paint and gilding used
in " getting up" his piece. Either this is very unwise,
or it is a proof that the public cares more for the paint
and the gilding than for having good pieces written for
them.

Dulness in shipping and theatricals are, it appears,
allied. A correspondent of the Era says :—" Theatrical
affairs here (Sunderland) have had a very gloomy
appearance for some time past, and the managers of
both theatres must be losing money in an unpleasantly
rapid manner; the truth must be told, that, with the
present dulness of trade _in shipping, one theatre open
at once would amply meet the requirements of the town,
and prove remunerative as of yore, while the present
state of rivalry can only end disastrously."
Mario and Grisi are said to have left Spain and to be
in London, where they intend giving a concert.
A tragedy in the Hebrew language, called "King
Joachim,'! by M. Becher, has just been published at
Vienna.
The Christmas number of All the Year Round will be
a series of stories, entitled " The Haunted House ;" Mr.
Dickens and Mr. Wilkie Collins are the principal con-
tributors. Mr. John Leech is preparing as his Christ-
mas offering a third series of " Pictures of Life and
Character from the Collection of Mr. Punch." Mr.
Massey has in the press the third volume of his " His-
tory of England during the reign of George III."
Dr. George Wilson, the late professor of technology
in the University of Edinburgh, was engaged. at the
time of his death in preparing a memoir of Edward
Forbes, the naturalist, who, like himself, had been a
professor at Edinburgh, and was also cut off prematurely.
By the death of Dr. Wilson, Macmillan's Magazine loses
a valuable contributor ; he was the author of a pleasant
and instructive technological article in the first number
of the new miscellany. We observe in the new number
of Macmillan, the introduction of another Scottish
writer to the magazine world of literature, Mr. Patrick
Edward Dove, who is, or was, the editor of the Glasgow
commonwealth, and who " leads off" Macmillan with a
spirited article on the "Rifle Corps Movement and Na-
tional Defences."

Messrs. Strahan and Co., of Edinburgh, are about
'starting a new periodical, edited by Dr. Norman Mac-
leod. It is to he called " Good Words," and will be of
a religious character. It will be published in lid.
weekly numbers.
The sketches in 'Spain, 'taken by David Roberts, R..A.,
during the years :1882 and 1883, are now being 'exhibited
at the German Gallery. When he visited Spain, our
now veteran artist was in the first flush of his success,
and aiming to achieve the.lonours and reputation he
afterwards so abundantly obtained.
The death is recorded, of paralysis, at an advanced
age, of Francis Simonau, Esq., portrait 'painter. He
-was stepfather and sole instructor of the late lamented
Madame Soyer, better known as Emma Jones, who was
frequently characterised as " The English Murillo."
His mortal 'remains have been deposited in the same
vault with hers, at Kensal-green Cemetery.

A CLERGYMAN ON THE PEACE SOCIETY
AND VOLUNTEERING.

In the -course of a -speech delivered at a volunteer
meeting in Glasgow, the Rev. Dr. Norman MacLeod
said : ' I have not -studied, and I cannot say that I
properly know, what are the principles of the Peace
Society. If they mean this—that a man is to do all he
can to cherish peace ; if they mean that we are to main-
tain a horror of war, and look on it only as a dreadful
necessity v‘that we are to make all sacrifices short of sacri-
ficing righteousness,. rather than to have war—then why
do they arrogate to themselves the possession of these
principles As if they were peculiar to themselves :=
There is -not a. Christian man but believes this. But
if they mean this—that a man is to_give up the liberty
of his country rather than fight—giv up what is more
precious than life itself rather than 'fight—give up Our
property,- because a tyrant and despot may land on our
shores—that rather than lift a hand they will abandon
the defence of all that is dear to them—then I stigmatise
them as hypocrites, cowards, fools, and traitors. (Cheers.)
Suppose we put it in a practical form. 'Suppose the French
did land in Glasgow, I should like -to know what the
members of the Peace Society would propose to do.
(Laughter') I presume.they would propose Co treat the
invaders kindly, to remove any offensive fortifications out
-of their way, and surround our coasts instead with hot
,rolls and -coffee. (Great laughter.) Then, I suppose we
,should have committees -to look after the comforts of
-the Zouaves, committees-for the G-renaiiers, committees
-for the Chasseurs, and the lord Provost and the Bailie s
would be appointed a deputation to wait on the invading
army and (invite them to a soiree in the City-hall.
(Roars of laughter.) Then: here would be a committee,
I -suppose, .to show them tthe Exchange, and all the
beautiful manufactures of Glasgow. There would be a
committee of -shopkeepers, I -suppose, some of our great
jewellers being conveners of the committee, and-inviting
the French soldiers to help themselves. (Renewed
laughter.> sent of delicacy ,to their feelings, also,
there Ivould be a committee to board up 'Wellington's
stutue, and the statue of Sir John, Moore, and to take
the names from Nelson's Testimonial—the Nile, Aboukir,
Trafalgar, &c.—and put up "Likrtd, egalite,fraternitd."
(Laughter and,cheers.) And then, for a finish, we would,
I suppose, give them all free tickets to pass them on to
London. (Laughter.) Or do they mean us to take
another course, and standing forth, lac men drive back
the invader from our shores as seaweed is tossed by the
waves ? Whatever the Peace Society say, I say, in the
sight of God—Rifiemen, arm ; keep your powder dry,
and be ready to receive the enemy. (Tremendous
applause, the riflemen rising to their feet, cheering, and
waving their caps.)

THE FRENCH LAW ON STRIRES.—A master builder
some time ago contracted to build a large manufactory
for making varnished leather at Pantin, near Paris, and
to have it terminated by the fifteenth of last month,
under pain of paying 50f. for each day's delay. As the
day approached the.. contractor, who was I somewhat
behindhand, pressed on the work as fast as he could ;.
but a number of masons, knowing the obligation he was
under, demanded an increase of 25c. a day in their pay.
He refused, and they struck work,. As this act amounted
to a coalition, which is punishable. by the French law,
five of the men, who had been most active it getting up
the strike, were brought to trial before the Tribunal of
Correctional Police, and condemnect—two to a Month's
imprisonment, and :three to a fortnight's.—Building
