TO THE ELECTORS AND RATEPAYERS OF MARYLEBONIA.
ENTLEMEN,-1 -present myself as a Candidate
J for Election to the London School Board as one of the
Representatives of Marylebone. I have iucessantly and actively
advocated a system of National •Unsectarlan Education. For
twenty years I have studied the wants, the claims, the rights of
the people ; and have all that time been in the habit of expres-
sing my opinions, as a public journalist, on the questions which
have arisen affecting their moral and material well-being.
I have been led to believe that my humble services to the pub-
ic cause will recommend me to the place of honour I seek at the
new Education Council.

I represent no sect, no party, no clique, and am not specially
supported by any organisation. I base my candidature broadly
on my known participation in the political progresses of the last
twenty years, of which the Elementary Education Bill of 1870 is
the most important.
Trusting to be favoured with your support on the day of
election, _ _

I remain, Gentlemen,
Yours, faithfully,
BLANCHARD JERROLD.

PERPLEXING PoSITION OF TUR Two MRS.
YELVERTONS.—The death of Lord 'Avonmore raises a
curious and perplexing question in the interpretation of
onr marriage laws. His successor in the title and estates
is Major Yelverton, the hero of the Longwor4-1-Yelverton
romance. The peerage is an Irish one, and by the verdict
of an Irish court of law Miss Theresa Longworth is the
wife of Major Yelverton. She is now, therefore, Lady
Avonmore, and, as the wife of an Irish peer, is entitled to
her jointure. How is this difficulty to be settled ? On
this side of St. George's Channel the widow of Professor
Forbes is Lord Avonmore's wife ; in Ireland, Miss Long-
worth is his wife, and his English and Scotch wife has
neither title nor status. It is a perplexing position for the
gentleman to find himself in. But what is his position in
comparison with that of the ladies? Wife and no wife,
husband and no husband !—Bristol Times.
ATTEmTED MURDER IN CORNWALL.—An extra-
ordinary case of attempted murder by a Coastguard officer,
which was reported in the Times as having occurred at a
secluded spot on the cliffs of the north coast of Cornwall,
was investigated on Tuesday by a Bench of county magis-
trates sitting at Camborne. The proceedings lasted several
hours, and eventually the accused, David Brien, commis-
sioned boatman of Gwithian station, was committed for
trial at the next assizes on the charge. According to the
prosecutor's evidence, the prisoner, who had been enraged
by prosecutor's statements at an inquiry on the previous
day, met him by appointment at a lonely spot at o'clock
in the morning. A sharp and angry altercation ensued,
when suddenly the prisoner, after having threatened to
murder him, knocked him down and dragged him towards
an open abandoned mine shaft, on the brink of which he
made a desperate struggle and cleared himself from Brien's
grasp. He then ran away, but was overtaken by the pri-
soner, who kicked him with great force and knocked him
into a pit several feet in depth. Evidence was given
to the effect ' that the prosecutor had been much in-
jured, and'that on the following morning he was found
with several cuts and contusions ; also that at the place
indicated there were signs of severe struggling. The pri-
soner would have been entitled to a retiring pensionin a
few months.
