TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—In the critique (in your impression of Tuesday
last) on the Pantomime at Drury-lane Theatre, Mr Osolt
Byrne's name is mentioned in connection with the ballet ;
permit me, sir, in justice to myself, to state in your column°
that that gentleman has had nothing whatever to do with
the Drury-lane pantomimes for the last two years, and that
the ballet in question, of which you spoke so favoutabl99
was devised by your humble servant,

A Royal Marriage,

The following statement appeared in the Church 4
man of Thursday :
" The hand of the Princess Mary of Cambridge
was sought by a peer of Great Britain. The Royal
Marriage Act, however, stood in the way. It is
true that it is in the power of the Queen to remove
all obstacles by her consent. This, we regret to
learn, was refused. If it is necessary to preserve
the throne of these realms as an object of com•
petition for the illustrious race of the Saxe.oo-
- by all means let it be done—but since the
Princess Mary, or any children of hers could hardly
by any possibility succeed to that station, the re-
fusal is utterly without excuse, and deeply do we
regret that her Majesty should have been advised
to withold her consent. However, consent or no,
in the presence of -God, and with the blessings of
the Church, the Princess Mary, as we hear, has
asserted her own rights, and the marriage has
taken place."-

The Duke of Devonshire and Lady Louisa Caven.
dish left Chatsworth a few days ago for Holkar
Hall, near Milnthorp. Before leaving the princely
seat in Derbyshire ample provision was made by
his Grace for the poor on his neighbouring property.
In order to give good cheer to the needy, four of
his finest cattle were killed for distribution.

The Duke and Duchess of Northumberland,
within the last ten days, have made ample provision
for the poor on their estates in Northumberland
and Yorkshire. As customary, the poor in New-
castle have participated largely in the benevolence
of the noble duke and duchess.

The Duke of Rutlaud has caused a large quantity
of warm clothing to be distributed to the poor ou
his estates in Leicestershire and Lincolnshire, and
also an abundance of good old English cheer to his
labourers and their families in the vicinity of Bele
voir.

His Excellency the Prussian Ambassador and
the Countess Bernstorff return to the Prussian Em-
bassy to-day from visiting Frances Countess Wal.
degrave and the Right Hon. Chichester Fortescue,
NIP., at Strawberry Hill, Twickenham.
The Marquis of Ormonde is visiting his estates
in Ireland. The noble mai quis will rejoin his regi•
ment next month.
Countess Poulett has so far recovered from her
recent severe illness as to be enabled to leave town for
change of air, and has gone on a visit to Lord and Lady
Bridport at Cricket St Thomas, near Chard, Somersetshire,

The Right Hon. Sir George Grey, Bart., M.P.,
will return to town early in the ensuing week from a tour
of visits in the west of England.

Mr. GoLDWIN SMITH'S remarks cn the relations
between America and England will, doubtless, in,
terest many, and certainly the learned ProfesEor
has not been niggardly in his efforts, for his letter
is voluminous, and very comprehensive in its de-
tails. He speaks with great decision on the goes•
tion of slavery, and when he affirms that England
holds the practice in abhorrence, many will coin-
cide with him who differ from the general tenor

the room when he said 'so, but witness did not hear Sarafini

say a word.
By Mr Wakeling—There was not a word of difference
before the affair. Witness did not know how Sarafini came
to be on top of Harrington. for ho (witness) was knocked
down first.

Fawoll, 425 A, said that he was pasting by the public-
house when ho was called in by the landlord. He went into
the taproom, and saw a great number of Italians breaking
up the forms, and as they all seemed to be fighting he went
out and saw another policeman. He did not then see Sara-
fini. When he returned ho was met by a man, who said,

Oh, Mr Fawell, I'm stabbed." 'Witness said, "By
whom ?" and he then saw Sarafini running from one room
to another. He was going into the bagatelle-room. Directly
afterwards witness heard that another man was stabbed.
He entered the bagatelle-room and saw Harrington lying
in a corner. 'With the assistance of Police-con table Elliot
witness secured Sarafini. 'Witness did not know Harrington
had been stabbed. Witness then got the prisoner out into
the street, and said, " I shall take you to the station on the
charge of stabbing Alfred Rebeque." He made some ansvnr
in Italian, and he struggled violently. They were followed
to the station by a great number of Italians. Witness begged
of them to keep back. The prisoner struggled violently all
the way. Witness afterwards searched for a knife, but
found none.

Police-constable Elliot, G division, gave corroborative

evidence.

Wm. Faithall, 15S G, said ho was called in to the Golden
Anchor between 7 and 8 o'cl ck on the night in question.
There were great numbers there. Witness saw Harrington
in the bar parlour and examined him. His intestines pro-
truded through the stomach. Witness took him in a cab
to the hospital. Witness produced Harrington's trousers.
They were saturated with blood, and there was a cut in
them corresponding to the wound in deceased's stomach.
Serrgeant Baldock, 1 G, said—At a qurter to 8 o'clock
on the 26th inst., the prisoner Sarafini was brought in by
two constables. Witness told him he was charged with
stabbing a man.
Coroner—That related, however, to another man ?

MOROCCO.

A Tunis letter of the 20th says :—" The labour
of restoring the Bey's authority is being pursued i❑
those places where it had been temporarily shaken,
and the Government is taking steps to prevent a
recurrence of the late disorders. There now only.
remains to reduce the detached cavalry of the west
and centre, who have made an attack on the camp
of the Kef, which is commanded by Sidi Roustam.
Those rebels, to the number of about 3,000, were
assembled by the partisan chief Aly-Ben-Ghede•
houm, who, after having obtained the pardon of
the Bey, had not profited by it. He attempted
to surprise the camp of General Roustam, with
a view of obtaining possession of the cannons
which are the terror of the wandering Arabs.
General Roustam, whose 12 guns are served by
good artillerymen, allowed the enemy to advance,
and then dispersed them by a discharge of grape
from his two batteries. This fresh victory has added
another prestige to the authority of the Bey. His
Highness has now organised and despatched an
army of from 12,000 to about 15,000 regular and
irregular troops, under the command of Sidi--Aly-
Bey, presumptive heir to the Tunisian throne.
From time immemorial the custom has been for the
heir to make a❑ annual campaign of this kind
through the regency for the purpose of collecting
taxes and displaying to the tribes the imposing
strength of the public force. For the last two
years this custom had not been observed, and from
the emission the Arabs inferred that the Govern,
meat had lost its power. Teo mission of 6idi-
Aly-Bey is to prove to them that they are mistaken,
and to restore the prestige of the Government. The
collection of the current taxes and the arrears will
contribute to re-establish the State finances, which
had been already relieved by considerable rums
sent from the province of babel. A sum of
5,000,000 piastres has been again received during
the last few days from that province."

to the State Church, that is an institution so evil and so
odious, under the circumstances of your country, that it
makes one almost hopeless of Irish freedom froth it that
Irishmen have borne it so long. The whole Liberal party
in Great Britain will, doubtless, join with you in demand.
ing the removal of a wrong which has ho equal, in the
character of a national insult, in any other civilised and
Christian country in the world. If the popular party inlre.

land and Scotland for the advance of Liberal measures, and
especially for the promotion of an honest amendment of the
representation, lam confident that great and beneficial
changes ought to be made within a few years. We have
on our side numbers and opinion, but we want a more dia.

Archbishop CULLEN proposed the first resolution
as follows :—" That the entire ecclesiastical re•
venues of Ireland, amounting to upwards of
£580,000 annually, are appropriated to the main•
tenance of a Church which (according to the latest
census) counts amongst its members only 691;872
persons—being less than one seventh of the entire
population of the island. That this singular insti-
tution was originally established, and has been
always maintained, by force, in opposition to reason
and justice, and in defiance of the will of the great
majority of the Irish people. That we, therefore,
resent it is a badge of national servitude,
offensive and degrading alike to all Irish-
men, Protestant as well as Catholic." He said
