QUEEN ISABELLA.

The ex-Queen of Spain has abdicated at last.
The event has been often announced before ; but
this time there can be no doubt that the step has
been formally taken, and that a manifesto has been
addressed to the Spanish people. So far as the Queen
herself is concerned, the abdication is not important.
Nearly two years have passed since the well-concerted
movement of the insurgent Generals left Isabella no
resource but to fly across the Pyrenees, and since then
neither the people nor their leaders have displayed the
silghtest inclination to have Isabella back again. And
in all their quarrels, intrigues, and fights, the different
parties in Spain have adhered to the one steady pur-
pose of keeping out Isabella. It mattered little,
therefore, for herself personally whether she abdica-
ted or not. But as she resigns in favour of her son
it is just possible that this act may be attended with
important consequences. The Spaniards cannot find
a king, and they may become tired of waiting, though
they are the most patient of races. General Prim has
alWays shewn the most decided hostility to the
Bourbon family; but he may take the young Prince
as a last resource. No evil is known of a young man.

A BOOR FOR TOURISTS IN

NORWAY, THE • CHANNEL ISLANDS, CORNWALL,
AND THE SCILLY ISLANDS.
BY EDWARD SPENDER.
PRICE 3s.

"It is a straightforwardly and sometimes gracefully written
Sketch of Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, from the
holiday traveller's point of view, not, however, exclusively
devoted to matters of scenery or itinerary, but designed to give
the voyager an intelligent interest in the manners, customs,
industries, and institutions of the districts he is exploring. Foi
intending visitors to Norway especially, Mr. Spender's book will
be welcome. It has, moreover, the decided advantage of com-
pression, clearness of style, and easy manageableness of bulk."—
Daily Telegraph.
"The volume perfectly fulfils its purpose. It is neat and cheap
and contains in a small space a great quantity of very interesting
matter, much of which will be novel, and all of which will be
useful, not only to those who visit the places described, but to
those who stay at home. Mr. Spender is an acute observer, a
most industrious and judicious collector of facts, and an eloquent
and graphic writer, and does ample justice to his subjects."—
Yorkshire Post.
"It deserves a welcome, this book we have so long uncon-
sciously been in search of. The itineraries themselves are to the
intending excursionists a veritable benefaction. . . Altogether
the book is one to carry in one's knapsack or valise during the
happy time of our holiday excursion, and to give a place to on
our book-shelves afterwards as a most pleasant remembrancer."
Still
" Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is a very delightful little book. The
essay on Norway is particularly full of information, but the
others are not far behind it in proportion to their length, and all
are written in a genial spirit."—Globe.
"Without being exactly a guide-book, it answers all the pur-
poses of one, and contains beside a vast quantity of information,
all given in the most condensed form possible. There is not a
line of space wasted in fine writing, but the descriptions of scenery
bear witness to the author's genuine love and appreciation of the
picturesque, just as his closely compressed facts and statements
prove the practical and hardworking man of letters."—Man-
chester Courier.
" From back to back Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is full of matter
interesting equally to the tourist and the ordinary reader. It is
written in an easy and pleasant style, and is well got up.' "
Eastern Morning News.
" We cannot part with this fascinating little work without con-
gratulating Mr. Spender upon it. Addressed, as it more especially
is, to travellers in Norway, the Channel Islands, and Corawall,
it is, nevertheless,• a book that will afford the keenest gratifica-
tion to the general public. . . . As to its literary merits we
need say nothing, the name of the author being sufficient
guarantee on this point."—Western Mail.
" The articles chew unusual power of observation, are full
of genial gossip, and supply just what the excursionist wants—
reliable information."—Western Daily Press.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY.

The Speaker took the chair at five minutes to four
o'clock, but when the business commenced there was a
very small attendance of members. The North Metro-
politan Tramways Bill was read a third time and passed.
No little amusement was caused by Mr. J. B. Smith giving
notice that in committee on the Education Bill he should
move that after the Ist of January, 1877, no person should
be entitled to vote for any candidate for the representation
of any county or borough who could not write his christian
name and surname.

Sir HENRY LYTTON BIILWER rose in his place, and
briefly but impressively alluded to the death of Earl
Clarendon.

RECONCILIATION AT THE ADMIRALTY.

The intelligence that Sir Robert Spencer Robinson
and Mr. Reed, C. 8., were, after all, to continue to
hold their seats in the service of the Admiralty has
been confirmed. A contemporary, whose information
on naval matters is generally trustworthy, sass that
the report of the resignations, to say the least of it,
was based on a very erroneous misconception of the
facts. This view, however, is not shared in by the
Times, which condemns any proneness to quarrel that
may be shewn by Admiralty officers at a
time when Mr. Childers is seriously unwell.
The leading journal explains the grounds for
the difference by referring it to the disappointment of
Sir Robert Spencer Robinson at finding that an old
rule, providing that Naval officers who had served at
Whitehall, might afterwards have a period of active
service, was to be repealed just in time to affect him.
The Times, however, is as unable to comprehend why
he should lose his temper over the matter,
after four months' hesitation, and threaten
to dissarrange matters at this crisis, as
it is to understand the riddle why Mr. Reed should
voluntarily mix himself up in the difficulty, and de-
clare his intention to resign also, if the objectionable
Order in Council was not repealed. The Times, speak-
ing of Sir Robert Spencer Robinson, says that temper
and conduct in public men are of still higher
estimation in this country than ability, which
however, does not pass unrecognised. Referring to
Mr. Reed, the same journal adds that England
contains many naval architects, and that good ships,
which were built before Mr. Reed's time, will still
be built if he should be compelled in deference to his
own feelings to retire from public service. It is under
all circumstances imperative that a full explanation
of this obscure and lamentable dispute should be
given to the public, and that the terms of the com-
promise or mode of reconciliation should be speedily
made known.

JACK ASHORE.

All the world knows a sailor in port is the most
helpless being in existence. On board ship let him
be the steadiest, the most careful, and the trimmest
Al that ever walked a deck, the touch of land seems
to have a stupifying effect on his mental capacity,
and he straightway becomes a prey to any land-
lubber whom chalice may throw in his way.. Sailor's
homes have been erected for his special benefit, the
authorities have surrounded him with safeguards of
protection, it has been made dangerous for crimps to
board ships in order to take charge of poor Jack,
but in spite of all precautionary measures, some how
or other he continues to run into the jaws of the
land-shark. A case in point was exposed the other
day at the Thames Police Court, when two men,
named Patrick Kelly and Michael Macarthy, were
charged with stealing £lB from John Brooks, a
seaman, so far back as• August last year. Brooks
having arrived from a voyage, as soon as he received
his money, started on a cruise, in the course of which
he fell in with the pri.,,oners. Several public-houses were
visited, but the landlord of one of these refused to serve
them, and cautioned the sailor against his compa-
nions. He had not proceeded many yards from the
house, when the two men hustled him into a back
street, and while one bound his arms the other rifled

his pockets, and having knocked their victim sense-
less, the two fellows made their escape. The sailors'
stay in the country was considerably abridged
by his loss, but his misfortunes seem to have left
their mark on his mind, and on his return
he ferretted out his spoilers, and brought them
to justice. John Brooks, will, it is to be hoped,
be more careful when he sets out on his nex t
land voyage.

THE BATTLE OF PIGEON HILL.

To the Fenian mind the woods and mounds known
as Cook's Corner, or Pigeon Hill, on the Canadian
border, will probably be considered as equally entitled
to fame as the plains of Marathon. In the fight of
June 3rd the Fenian losses, we learn from an official
statement, were eleven killed and seventeen wounded,
and three of the latter received injuries which can-
not but prove fatal. The news of the marauders being
actually on the march of course caused much excite-
ment among newspaper men and artists, and it
is probably the descriptions of the rival forces
given by one or two special correspondents that will
cause the expedition and attack Of the Brotherhood
to be well remembered by ordinary people.
One . journal in Montreal signified remark-
able aptitude on the day of the battle.
In -a second edition, a full descriptive account
of the arrival and retreat of O'Neill's forces was pub-
lished, and a plan of the field—denoting the barn
where the Fenians took shelter, and from which they
were dislodged, the sacred spot where John Rowe
fell in his death-throes, the line where O'Neill took
his observations, and the house in which he was
captured—was distributed gratuitously. Lord
Macaulay once expressed surprise at the ignorance of
Englishmen with respect to Indian battle-fields.
The Montreal Weekly Witness is determined that a
similar piece of calumny may never be uttered
with reference to the English in Canada and the
Fenian campaigning grounds.

THE SCILLY ISLANDS TELEGRAPH CABLE.—The
steamer Caroline has succeeded in picking up nearly the
whole of the Scilly shore end and part of the Cornish
shore end of the first Scilly cable. The deep channel por-
tion, 20 miles long, cannot be recovered. • The Caroline
has sailed from Moan's Bay for Woolwich.

LONDON AND PARIS TOWN GARDENING.

Englishmen ought to be thankful for small mercies.
To find out that after all " they don't manage these
things better in France," and that though Waterloo
has been avenged a hundred times over and over
again, the inhabitants of the "tight little island"
manage now and then to rival la belle France, and even
to excel her. Surely this is pleasant to contemplate.
The Gardener's Chronicle says that if we compare the
Parc Monceau in Paris with our own St. James's
Park, the contrast is by no means unfavourable to
us. Think of that, vanquished Britons ! " True,"
says the Chronicle, "we have not the beds of negundo
or of deciduous magnolias, nor the specimens of
ensete ; we cannot boast so grand a specimen of
weeping juniper ; we have not great beds of Judas
trees or of tamarix ; our flat surface is not diversi-
fied by such constant undulation. Still, in the dis-
position of its masses, and as a piece of landscape
gardening generally, our own park may carry the
palm." What if Gladiateur did beat our best Eng-
lish horses ; what if our pigeon-slayers were vanquished
by the jeunesse dor& of Paris—let us take heart, and
point in triumph to St. James's Park.

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

The dead body of a man named James Stewart, 24
years of age, unmarried, was found in Dunblane on
Saturday night. The deceased, it appears, was agent for
the North British Railway Company at one of their sta-
tions, and was walking home, when he was caught up by
a passenger train, and had both legs andhis right arm cut
off, and his body nearly severed in the middle.

THE ACQUITTAL OF BAURETT

Barrett, the man accused of having wilfully fired
from behind a hedge.in Galway at Captain Lambert,
his father's landlord, has been, after a third trial, at
length acquitted. The court in Dublin rang with
cheers when the jury returned into it, after two
hours' deliberation, and signified their verdict, excul-
pating the prisoner. The enthusiasm on the occa-
sion was heightened when Mr. Butt, Q.C., who has
made himself conspicuous and popular by under-
taking the defence of those countrymen of his who
are charged with political or agrarian offences, rose
from his seat and asked Justice Fitzgerald to order
the immediate release of Barrett and the re-
turn of all money or other articles
taken from him. His Lordship's reply
"Let everything be given back to him" was the
signal for almost wild applause, and while it was still
resounding in the building, the liberated man left the
court with his solicitor. The impression in Dublin
is very general that Barrett was, in pcint of fact, not
the man who fired the shot at Captain Lambert.
The evidence in support of this view
was, moreover, very strong, inasmuch as
it was shewn that the accused could scarcely have
had time to reach the station where he was appre-
hended, in so short a time after that in which the
prosecutor was said to have been wounded.
He did not, by any means either, strike those who
observed him on his trial as a vindictive or nial-
cious man. His being in the Government service in
a trusted position, and the testimony against him
being afforded by a single witness, were also points
in his favour. There is scarcely any doubt but that
the last trial was a most fair one in every respect.
The anxiety of the jury wasrepeatedly exhidited during

THE NEWARK ACCIDENT.-THE INQUEST.

The inquest touching the Newark accident was resumed
at noon to-day. After the medical evidence had been
taken, Patrick Stirling, the chief engineer of the Great
Northern, was examined, and his evidence ran to a great
length. The subst Ince of his answers was that the broken
axle was of the very best quality, and the flow in it
unperceptible to ordinary tests. He thought it unpracti-
cable to keep a record of the running of axles, as wheels
are often changed from one waggon to another, to save
loss of time. He thought an old axle less liable to fail
than a new one.

THE ACQUITTAL OF BARRETT

Barrett, the man accused of having wilfully fired
frombehind a hedge in Galway at Captain Lambert,
his father's landlord, has been, after a third trial, at
length acquitted. The court in Dublin rang with
cheers when the jury returned into it, after two
hours' deliberation, and signified their verdict, excul-
pating the prisoner. The enthusiasm on the occa-
sion was heightened when Mr. Butt, Q.C., who has
made himself conspicuous and popular by under-
taking the defence of those countrymen of his who
are charged with political or agrarian offences, rose
from his seat and asked Justice Fitzgerald to order
the immediate release of Barrett and the re-
turn of all money or other articles
taken from him. His Lordship's reply
"Let everything be given back to him " was the
signal for almost wild applause, and while it was still
resounding in the building; the liberated man left the
court with his solicitor. The impression in Dublin
is very general that Barrett was, in point of fact, not
the man who fired the shot at Captain Lambert.
The evidence in support of this view
was, moreover, very strong, inasmuch as
it was shewn that the accused could scarcely have
had time to reach the station where he was appre-
hended, in so short a time after that in which the
prosecutor was said to have been wounded.
He did not, by any means either, strike • those who
observed , him on his trial as a vindictive or mal-
cious man. His being in the Government service in
a trusted position, and the testimony against him
being afforded by a single witness, were also points
in his favour. There is scarcely any doubt but that
the last trial was a most fair one in every respect.
The anxiety of the j ury was repeatedly exhidited during

VOYAGES TO IRELAND.

'1 he carriage of deck-loads of live stock or other
descriptions of cargd is often productive of disaster
to vessels ; but it is obvious that the. mischief does
not happen on the voyages between England and
Ireland. A return of the number of passages made
by steamships across the Irish Channel has been
issued, and it sets forth that in the opinion of the
Board of Trade not one accident is to be attributed
to deck-cargoes. In fact there are, SQ to speak, no
disasters incident to this branch of navigation. On
an average above four thousand voyages are made
annually from England to Ireland, and four thousand
the reverse way ; but during the last ten years only
three steamships have been lost. Such immunity
from accident, even though the distance be short, is
really remarkable. How favourably it compares
with the annual bill of slaughter in the Baltic Sea!
These three shipwrecks did not result in the sacrifice
of a single life.

•
The House, by its amendments to the pending Appro-
priation Bills, preserves its character as the more economi-
cal branch of Congress. It discriminates in a manner
which, unfortunately, the Senate seldom imitates. Thus,
by adopting the equitable principle that the pay for cleri-
cal service shall be regulated by the character of the
service, and the capacity of the person rendering it,
irrespective of sex, the House does full justice to the
female clerks, at the same time that it refuses to sanction
the Senate scheme forincreasing greatly the Departmental
expenditures on clerical account. The House also rejected
heavy items connected with the National Capitol—lend-
ing no countenance to the agitation for its removal, and
none to the folly which would stifle the cry for removal
by reckless outlays at Washington. The Polar expedi-
tion, or rather the appropriation for it, was also voted
down. The House is on the right path.—Reduced taxa-
tion should be followed by reduced expenditure. —New
York Times.

ARREARS IN CHANCERY BUSINESS

The delay which has taken place in the appoint-
ment of a Lord Chief Justice of Appeal in the room
of the late Sir Charles Selwyn has caused so much
inconvenience, and the matter has been so repeatedly
discussed in the newspapers, that it is desirable some
further means should be taken to bring the subject
before Parliament. A correspondent of the limes
states that at this time last year there were only six
appeals pending and to be heard before the Lords
Justices, but that there are now forty-six, and the
number of appeals set down for the purposes of delay
is rapidly increasing. The illness of Lord Justice
Giffard has practically closed the doors of the Appeal
'Court, and unless measures are taken to get rid of the
accumulated cases, great injury will be done to
the unfortunate suitors. The saving effected y
abolishing the office of Lord Justice amounts to
k:6,000, but the luss which must accrue to the
country by this ill-timed step, is well nigh incalcu-
lable, not to mention the terrible inconvenience
produced.

A DELICATE QUESTION.

The lady who appeared in the Court of Common
Pleas on Saturday was a match not only for the
Solicitor-General, silvery and persuasive though his
voice may be, but even for Lord Chief Justice
'Bovill who tried in vain to make her tell
the secret of her age. The action was
brought by the lady, Mrs. Morgell, against
Sir Edward Gambier and his wife, to recover
damages for alleged libels contained in letters written
by Lady Gambier. Sir J. Coleridge, in cross-examin-
ing Mrs. Morgell, wanted to know her age, and that
of the defendant. But Mrs. Morgell was not to be
trepanned by the wiles of the Solicitor-General. "I
will not answer it," was the reply. " How old are
you ?" reiterates the counsel. "I do not choose to
answer," was the firm response of the lady. " Are
you seventy ? " says the bland and insinuating bar:-
rister. " Make me a hundred if you please, but I
am not going to answer." In vain did the lawyer
press her; in vain did the judge urge her, Mrs Morgell
bad made up her mind and was prepared with a re ason for
her refusal. She had probably had " Every Man (and
Woman) His (or Her) Own Lawyer," and threw the
law in the face of her relentless questioners. " The
English law does not force me, I believe, to answer
such a question." A compromise was tried by the
baled counsel. Perhaps the lady might write her
age down on paper and hand it to the jury. But the
lady objected to this too, and finally the matter was
allowed to drop. Let the Women's Rights Associa-
tion be assured that one of the sex has been able to
hold her own against their oppressors, and may Mrs.
Morgell receive a condign reward.

CORRUPT PRACTICES.

Bribery and corruption have not yet ceased to be a
trouble to the legislature ; they have not even
finally emerged from the dubious state of investiga-
tion by select committees. A. committee has just
finished an inquiry touching the proper course to be
adopted with several members of the House of
Commons, who at different times, extending
in some cases so far back as seventeen years have
been reported guilty of corrupt practices by election
commissions. All these persons received a certificate of
indemnity, and no proceedings have been take n
against them. Their offence remains unpunished.
Nor can the committee recommend that any prose-
cution should be undertaken. These members of
Parliament were heard as witnesses, and in that
capacity incriminating evidence turned up
against them. The committee think it would be
unjust to take proceedings merely in consequence of
a report founded upon what a candidate might admit
as a witness. The accused person should have an
opportunity of defending himself in the regular
manner, which, of course, he had not before the
commission, the business of which is not to inquire
into the conduct of any particular person or per-
sons, but to ascertain generally the extent to which
corrupt practices may have prevailed in a certain
place. Equally are the committee of opinion that no
proceedings should be taken against any "of those
members by the inherent authority of the House of
Commons. The law, however„ is clearly unsatis-
factory. The committee recommend the abolition of
the distinction between persons who are and persons
who are not candidates

Candidates are liable to be disqualified only for such
bribery as, upon the trial of an election petition under
the Act, may affect the election then in controversy ; and
even such bribery will only disqualify, if it is established
at the trial by the report of the judge. A conviction upon
a criminal prosecution in a court of law, for bribery as a
candidate at any election whatever, would not disqualify,
though, if the offender had not been a candidate, he would
have been disqualified, upon such conviction. We think
it clear that this distinction ought not to continue.
The committee are of opinion that the lapse of one
year after the offence ought not to be a bar to pro-
ceedings, but that they might be commenced at any
time within three months after the alleged offenders
shall have been reported guilty by a judge. "In
this manner the mischief arising from reports of this
nature not being followed up by proceedings against
the parties inculpated, may for the future be avoided
or at least materially dimi!lished."

COLLISION IN THE NORTH SEA.

The screw-steamer Bravo, Captain King, with iron,
arrived in the Tyne last night in a very damaged condi-
tion. The captain reported that while off Whitby yes-
terday morning, distant about five miles, the Bravo came
into collision with the schooner Ellen, of Yarmouth,
Captain Williams, bound from Wisbeach to Middles-
borough, in ballast. The schooner sank- in about seven
minutes. Her crew were rescued by the Bravo, and
landed at Shields. Captain Williams got his leg severely
crushed between the steam of the steamer and the main-
mast of the schooner while jumping from one vessel to the
other. The bows of the steamer are greatly damaged.

THE ST. THOMAS TREATY.

Letters received from Denmark shew that the govern-
ment and statesmen of that country continue to be much
mortified at the neglect of the Senate of the United States
on the subject of the St. Thomas treaty, that body having
two years ago been informed of its ratification -by Den-
mark, and• the period for the exchange of ratifications
having been several times extended at the request of this
government. The last time expired on the 14th of April.
The Senate allowed it to elapse without one word for or
against the treaty. The correspondence says the
people feel now, as heretofore, that it is a clear
breach of international good breeding, and that they
have not been treated with the consideration that one
friendly Power should shew to another. It was supposed
that the Senate, at the present session, would take some
notice of the matter ; but in this there has been disap•
pointment. It seems to be settled that Denmark will
make no further movement on that subject, especially in
view of the fact that the proposition to purchase was ori-
ginally made bythe Exesmtive Department of this Govern-
ment, Denmark being reluctant at first to enter into the
negotiation. It appears from these letters that the treat-
ment by the Senate is more complained of than would
have been the failure to ratify the treaty, and that if the
treaty had been promptly acted on, though rejected, this
would have left less unfriendly feeling than is manifested
among the Danish people. —New York Times.

A SOLDIER'S GRIEVANCE.

A. private soldier has written to the Pall Mall
Gazette, complaining of an injustice which has long
existed in the army. No soldier is allowed without
the permission of his commanding officer to have any
article of private wearing apparel in his possession,
and on entering the service he has to sell all his clothing
in the presence of a non-commissioned officer. One
dealer has a complete monopoly of some regiments,
and it is suspected that the sergeant receives b ack-
handed fees for his services in the transactions.
In many cases the clothes worn by the recruit are of
considerable value, but the dealer is master of the
situation, and for what is worth £3 the renovator of
soiled garments offers 10s. The clothes thus dis-
posed of would fetch treble the amount at a pawn-
broker's. But it is not the recruit alone who is thus
victimised, for every article of clothing worn by the
rank and file is disposed of to the hungry " clo'man."
The men are constantly complaining of this griev-
ance, but hitherto their complaints have been dis-
regarded. There is no reason why our soldiers
should be subject to these losses, and it is to be
hoped that the matter will be brought to the notice
of some authority who will take measures to clip the
claws of the monopolist and his aider and abettor in
the robbery.

COMMITTAL FOR MANSLAUGHTER.

The Cornwall oounty magistrates, sittingat St. Columb,
yesterday committed a farmer named William Rowe,
of Falmouth, for trial, for the manslaughter of John
Dennis, who met his death while returning from St.
Columb Races a month ago with the accused and. others.
The evidence went to show that deceased died from a blow
struck by Rowe. The case has excited great interest in
the county, in consequence of the coroner's jury at the
time having roturned a verdict of death from natural
causes, and thw magistrates having ordered another inquiry,
which has resulted as above.

DAMAGE TO COTTON FREIGHTS.

but in transit on shipboard.
