LONDON, MONDAY, JUNE 13, 1864.

For once, tha Civil List Pensions for the year are
in the highest degree satisfactory That the fact

should be so, is to us, we will confess it, a very agree-
able surprise. We have so often had occasion to
reprehend in these columns the absurdity marking
the distribution of the annual addition to the Civil

List of £1,200 in the sh:pe of fresh Pensions !

Here, however, for once, we have no objection Vaa

ever to raise. The names of the recipeo te have been

exceedingly well selected--just the very names, to our
thinking, that ought to have been selected. The
little annual catalogue is—even with Lord PAL■
MERSTON still Prime Minister of England—not

made ridieulous by including the name of another
"Poet CLosk." One or two of the names, here, are
entirely new to us, we wilt acknowledge it. But
—with each of these unknown names (unknown,
that is to say, to
ourselves) a good reason
enough is given for the award it is coupled
" Mrs. AUSTIN £6O, in consideration
of the cervices of Ler late hu6bund, civil en ;infer,
slho died whilst engaged in the public service, and

with. A 3-1

merit of poor dwellings." Or, again, as
LEAF £5O, a 3 the widow of Mr. .1. LEAF, Who,
though of humble origin, W. 39 a contributor of

articles of great merit to various journals." Nay,
there i 3 yet another name on the list that we would
particularise in like manner—to wit, "Rev. C. B.
GIBSON 1100, as author of many literary works and
to Zhehigh testimony borne as to their value." Here,
rgain, however, it is Wt's who may be at fault :
and for that matter the whole of the rest of the
list is so thoroughly good that we have not a mo-
ment's doubt of it teat the selection last men-
