TERRIBLE ACCIDENT AT. BORDEAUX. The
Gironde of Bordeaux gives an account of a dreadful acci-
dent in the park of Bordeaux, where a scaffolding erected
for a bull fight suddenly gave way, by which twelve
persons were killed, and about thirty-nine badly wounded,
many with broken limbs. The engineer who had been
entrusted with the erection of the structure has been
arrested.

THE IRISH EXPRESSION OF SYMPATHY WITH
FRANCE.—Four prisoners were brought before the police
magistrates in Dublin on Wednesday charged with, being
in the disorderly mob of Tuesday night ; one was an
Excise officer, and was fined £3, having previously been
sentenced to one month's imprisonment, without the
option of a fine, but the fine was substituted in consequence
of his large helpless family. The other prisoners were
bound over to keep the peace.
:~,THE LAW OF PAWNBROKING.—OII Wednesday the
Select Committee on the Pawnbrokers' Bill met to ex-
amine witnesses. Mr. Bodkins said his experience shelved
that most of the stolen property produced in magistrates'
courts had passed through the pawnbrokers. He did not
approve of the police having the power to enter pawn-
brokers' shops and inspect the books, but the magistrates
might record any case of carelessness on the back of the
license, and if this occurred several times the license
should be refused.

CONVENTUAL AND MONASTIC INSTITITIONS.—The
Select Committee onConventual and Monastic Institutions
sat yesterday—the Right Hon. C. P. Villiers in the chair.
Two petitions from Scotland against such institutions
were read. Mr. Ford, honorary solicitor of All Saints'
Home, Margaret-street, said the objects of the home were
the maintenance of incurable and infirm persons and orphans
the visiting and nursing of the poor and sick, and other
charitable offices. It consisted of a superior and sisters.
There were trustees to the institution, which was sanc-
tioned by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Every sister
had power to leave when she liked, but a month's notice
was expected. The property of the institution consisted
of the houses in Margaret-street and £7,000 stock invested
in the names of four trustees. •
THE GOVERNMENT DOCKYARDS AND FACTORIES.
—The war which has so suddenly broken out on the Con-
tinent has tended to increased activity in most of the
Government establishments at Woolwich. Several of the
departments in the Royal Arsenal have extensive orders
on hand ; the Royal Gun Factories have received an order
to manufacture 50 bronze muzzle-loading 9-pounder field
guns, in addition to those already completed, without fur-
ther experiments, as originally intended. A large number
of 12-pounder muzzle loading guns, which have been laid
aside for some time, owing to the introduction of the
breechloader into the service, are at once to be rifled, so
as to be available for immediate use. Workmen are now
engaged in carrying out this order. The workmen in the
Royal Carriage Department are working over-time, in
order to expedite the completion of the iron gun-carriages
in course of manufacture in that departmeut. At Devon-
port and Keyham no orders have been received either
from the Admiralty or War Office that have any bearing
whateyer on the war,

THURSDAY.
Unless Denmark should join France there will not on
the present occasion be that painful clashing of inter ests
on the part of our Royal Family that there was in the
Dano-G-erman War. So far the only two members of it
directly concerned are on the same side. The husband of
the Princess Alice of Hesse Darmstadt, no less
than the husband of the Princess Victoria of
Prussia, will fight side by side. But the contingency

of Denmark endeavouring to recover, by a French alli-
ance, the possessions whereof she was ruthlessly deprived
in 1864, is so probable that the Prince of Wales does
wisely to fetch home his wife at once. The Princess
Victoria will probably take refuge here while the Prince
of Prussia is in command of the South German army.
There should be even greater need for the Princess Alice
to do likewise; for Hesse Darmstadt is one:orthe States
that will have to bear the first shock of war, and ia likely
to be the scene of many a battle. The Princess, by the
way, has adopted far more advanced theological
views than those which were held by her father, the
friend of Bunsen. She is the friend of Strauss,
and there is-,% story told to the effect that lately being
asked to give some pecuniary support to the maintenance
of an English chaplain, she declined, asking why the people
could not be content with the Lutheran Church, or "go
nowhere, as I do." The Queen's absence from town is
just now the subject of unfavourable remark.
At the very least, it is said, she might
stay at Windsor if , her own capital is so
intolerable. At present, when the most important events
are pending, when Ministers have had under discussion
so grave a matter as the despatch of a military force to
Belgium, it is not fair to compel them to lee making jour-
neys of nigh 200 miles whenever they wish to see their
sovereign. The strong remarks in the Times will, it is to
be hoped, produce some alteration of arrangements.
When the Premier gets knocked up by excessive fatigue
it is time to speak out.

No incident of the last few days has caused so much ex-
citement as the rumour that Russia had joined Prussia
which vas diligently circulated and widely believed. The
streets, in the neighbourhood of the Bank were a sight to
see. They were filled with! an excited crowd, who, if
anyone chanced to pass with a newspaper, set upon him,
and made him tell the news. The panic was some-
thing extraordinary, and Consols fell more rapidly than
they did on Black Friday, four years ago. There is no
limit to the effect of this war. It is felt not only in the
capital, but far away at the extremities of the kingdom.
Of all parts of Great Britain, the extreme north of Scot-
land is the last which one would have expected to find any
mischievous result. But at Wick the war is producing
the most serious distress. Prussia is the great continenta
market for the Scotch herring fishery. It is just at this
season that the fish-curers engage the fishermen. But in
consequence of the events of the past week the first have
declined to enter into any arrangement with the second,
and the result is that in the Wick district alone therel are
1,000 boats left unemployed, and the owners are thronging
the streets, seeking vainly for employment. Altogether
there !are 4,000 boats employed in this industry, and it is
feared that ruin must befall the twenty or thirty
thousand persons interested in the fishery. In the City
the effect of the war has been felt afresh to-day by the
raising of the Bank rate of discount,
The extraordinary manifestation of feeling on behalf of
France which took place at Dublin on Tuesday is a rather
serious matter. It means trouble for us if we should
becoMe involved in the war and take part with Germany.
It means that in that event France would make use of the
Fenian organisation to embarrass us. This is a point which
we cannot afford to overlook, when we remember the
events of the great war with France, and which might
have had very different issue for us if the French expe-
dition to Ireland had been under the leadership of a
different General from Hoche. The Irish en-
thusiasm in behalf of France will be stimu-
lated by the fact that the chief French general is of
Irish name and extraction. Marshal M'Mahon is the
descendant of an officer who fought for the Stuart cause
when James 11. was a pensioner on the bounty of Louis
XIV. But Ireland is not the only country which is
likely to go by the rule of contraries, and
espouse the side which England opposes. A
remarkable letter in to-day's Daily Telegraph from
an American, warns us that if we get involved in the war,
the United States will take the opposite side, and so force
a settlement of the Alabama claims. That the danger of
complications exists is, unfortunately, only too plain, and
there is the utmost anxiety with regard to the attitude of
Denmark, and still more as to the position of Belgium.
The infringement of the neutrality of that country would
infallibly drag us into the war embroglio, however
unwillingly.
The recall of Mr. Motley has excited some amount of
indignation among his friends, by reason of the very
uncourteous oonduct which has been shewn him by Pre-
sident Grant. For about a fortnight after the announce-
ment of his recall appeared in your columns, Mr. Motley
knew nothing at all about it. He was left to learn his fate
through a Central Press telegram. There is, probably, no
other country but the United States which would thus
have treated a man who not only held one of the highest
diplomatic positions, but was also an illustrious scholar.
Setting aside the personal affront to Mr. Motley, there is
probably no reason to regret his recall. It is understood
that the step has been taken because of his decided anti-
English views, which have prevented him from making
any progress in the settlement of the Alabama question..
Lord Clarendon positively declined to hold further com-
munication with him on the subject, so little disposition did
the representative of the United States shew to put the
matter on a practicable basis. Very little is known here
of his successor, but it is supposed that he will be in-
structed to show more cordiality. But 'tie hard work
pleasing the Americans. Mr. Reverdy Johnson was re-
called because he was too friendly with us. Mr. Motley
is recalled because he is not friendly enough. Let us
hope that Mr. Freylinghuysen will be the happy man.
It is just possible, however, that the war may alter the
position, and the prospect of doing a good trade in Ala-
bamas may induce the United States to postpone the
settlement of this long standing dispute.
Qf course the war is greatly interfering with the Conti-
nental tourist traffic. English families who were residing
in Germany in 1866, and involuntarily assisted at the
military operations in Kissingen, Dresden, and other
places where Englishmen resort have come back to their
native land, not caring to have a second experience of the
same kind. On the other hand, a large number of adven-
turous tourists are hastening abroad while the road is open,
and the Foreign-office has during the last few days been
besieged by applicants for passports. Among them is no
less a person than Dr. Forbes Winslow ; and as Mr. Sala,
in his letter from Paris in to-day's Daily Telegraph says
" We (the Parisians) are all stark mad," there will be
plenty of work for our illustrious mad doctor. At the
present time it is easy enough still to get into Switzer-
land, either by the Geneva or the Neuchatel route. But
ow about coming back ? If by chance the Prussians
should march upon Paris, tourists would find themselves
in a fix.

Some hopeful journalists have been giving out that
Parliament will rise about the 10th. I confess I think
my brethren of the pen are too sanguine. The introduc-
tion of another first-class measure—the new Neutrality
Bill—rendered absolutely necessary by the war, will cer-
tainly prolong the session by a fortnight. " Historicus"
will have whole columns to say upon his pet
subject ; and the law lords will be certain to chew
their litigious spirit by tearing the Ministerial
measure to pieces. Then there will be the debate on the
foreign policy of the Government with respect to media-
tion ; a topic which Mr. Horsman will trot out at length.
In truth, the Conservatives are sanguine that they will
find something in the promised papers which will
seriously damage Lord Granville. Failing that, they
prophesy that as no Liberal Government ever did or
could manage a war, and as England's neutrality cannot
possibly be long maintained, the present Ministry will
be out of office before very long. Meanwhile Lord
Redesdale is going to make a strong protest
about the Education Dill. He will complain bitterly that
a measure of such importance should be sent to the Upper
House the last week in July. But it is scarcely likely the
Conservative Peers will support Lord Redesdale in his
protest. They are only too anxious to get this question

settled, so as to deprive the Secularists of the power
of agitation which they would have, and would exercise
during the recess, were the bill not passed.
The result of the Permissive Bill division is most cheer-
ing. Including pairs and tellers, 115 members supported
and 146 opposed the bill, an adverse majority of only 31.
It was almost impossible to obtain pairs against the
bill. For instance, even Mr. Kennaway, though he spoke
against the bill, would not either vote or pair against it,
nor would that veteran advocate of the publicans, Mr.
Wykeham Martin.
If it had not been for the war complication the oppo-
nents of the Contagious Diseases Act intended to have
continued the debate de die in diem until they had forced
the House of Commons to take away from any individual
member the power of excluding the reporters. But the
Continental position is too critical, and they have aban-
doned the attempt. Several M. P.'s took notes yesterday
afternoon, and though Mr. Craufurd endeavoured to stop
them the Speaker ruled that they had a perfect right to
do so.

The Times is putting its house in order, and hopes as
soon as Lord Hartington's very handsome present to that
particular journal falls in to largely increase its sale. It
means -to supply country subscribers direct - instead of
through the news-agent as at present, and to that end is
erecting folding machines. This is rather a serious matter
for the newsvendors. One of them alone, Mr. W. H.
Smith, M.P. for Westminster, takes 30,000 copies every
morning.

It has been decided to entrust to Mr. Matthew Noble
the execution of the Derby memorial. There is, I regret
to say, but little doubt that the memorial fund has proved
a failure. From the first the absence of many distin-
guished Conservative noblemen from the list of contribu-
tors excited surprise, and the subscription list has lan-
guished throughout. This is to be regretted, for a man
of Lord Derby's historical position deserved a good statue.
THE condregation of St. Mary Magdalene's Church,
Paddington, the most successful High Church in London
are keeping high festival to-day. The special preachers
are Father Grafton (who is shortly going to America to
conduct a mission), the Rev. T. Yard, and the Rev.
Canon Bright, who succeeded Dean Mansel as
Professor of Ecclesiastical History. The offer-
tories for the half-year have amounted to
no less a sum than £5,205. Of this amount
£1,700 was given by one lady towards the building of an
additional aisle, which is now being erected. The organ
is probably the finest in any English church, and it is
played by Mr. Redhead, the well-known composer. The
doctrine is somewhat " advanced," and last Sunday the
service in Henry the Seventh's Chapel, which has caused
so much scandal to extreme High Churchmen, was
denounced from the pulpit of St. Mary Magdalene's in
very fervid language as " sacrilege." This is rather a
strong word seeing that the bishops have re-
fused to condemn Dean Stanley In the evening
I went to Westminster Abbey in order to hear
the Bishop of Exeter's sermon at the special nave service.

I must confess that it fell rather fiat. It was for the most
part a repetition of the idea which Dr. Temple has set
forth on many other occasions—the supremacy of con-
cience. But the bishop is not and never will be an orators
and his strong provincial accent does not tend to make his
sermons more impressive. The chief feature of the service
was Dean Stanley's reading of the first lesson.
It is impossible to describe the intense gusto
with which he gave the story of the stripling David pree
vailing over " this Philistine with a sling and a stone."
His whole heart seemed to go with David. He, the dean
himself, a man of little stature, seemed to be slaying in
imagination the modern Philistines in Goethe's and Mr.
Matthew Arnold's sense of the word. From the Abbey
a large proportion of the congregation betook themselves
to the Embankment, which was thronged to excess, and
is now become the great place of resort for Londoners
taking their promenade, especially in days of torrid heat,
like to-day, when the thermometer before sunrise was 66,
and at nine o'clock was 75 in the shade.

The papers have contained a too brief notice of Mr.
Murdo Young. He deserved fuller mention. He was a
Free-trader long before the League, and used to support

in the Sun Mr. Villiers's annual motion at a time when
Whig journals laughed at Free Trade as a ridiculous
crotchet. Lie was a particularly far-seeing man. At the
time that Napoleon returned to France he predicted con-
fidently that he would never rest until he became
Emperor. Mr. Young, though then 80 years old, pre-
dicted the present war some months ago. lie was never
a party man, and was held in high respect by both parties
but got reward from neither.

The chief item of literary news is the appearance of
another severe Conservative criticism on " Lothair," this
time ix the Quarterly Review. I believe that the author of
it is Mr. Hayward, a well-known Quarterly reviewer.
Mr. Bentley's forthcoming volume, "The Recovery
of Jerusalem," written by Captain Warren and Captain
Wilson, the explorers, and having a prefaco by
Dean Stanley is anticipated with much interest. Mr.
Deutsch, from whom Dr. Pusey withheld the Oxford
D.C.L. at the last Commemoration, contributes a chapter
to the work, and it will have forty illustrations. Dean
Stanley's " Essays, chiefly on questions in Church and
State," is a most fascinating book, although, as I inti-
mated before the appearance of the book, it consists of
articles which have already appeared in the Edinburgh
Review and other journals. The chief value of the
book is the lesson which it teaches as to the brief
existence of religious controversies, and their small
permanent influence on the thought of the age, however
fiercely they may have been waged at the time. The
Earl of Crawford has a volume ready, entitled " CEcu-
menicity in Relation to the Church of England," which
will certainly take a very different line from that taken by
his brother, the Hon. Colin Lindsay, formerly presi-
dent of the English Church Union, who lately seceded
to Rome. The literary essays of the late
Dean Milman contributed to the quarterlies are
about to be republished by. Mr. Murray. Lady Belcher,
wife of the arctic explorer, has in the press a history of
the mutineers of " the Bounty," ald their descendants in
Pitcairn and Norfolk Island, down to the present time.
Lieutenant-Colonel Cunningham is bringing out a new
edition of Peter Cunningham's " London," and a cheap
issue of the present work will appear immediately. Mrs.
Bray, author of " The Good St. Louis," has in the press

"The Revolt of the Protestants in the Cevennes."
Mr. John Murray is preparing, at the com-
mand of the Queen, an illustrated volume on
the subject of the Albert Memorial. Its chief features
will be a series of drawings, by Mr. Henry Holl,
of the various groups and figures which compose the
Memorial, as well as large views giving a general idea of
the whole from various points. The descriptive letterpress
of this volume will be from the pen of Mr. Doyne Bell,
who is, I believe, engaged in the library at Buckingham
Palace. The same publisher is preparing a narrative
memoir on Byron matters, by the late Lord Broughton,
edited by his daughter, the Hon. Mrs. Carleton.
The -memoir will not refer in any way to the Byron
scandal, but chiefly to the destruction of the
Byron MSS., of which Lord Broughton was a witness.
Mr. Tinsley is republishing (with additions) Mr. W.
Gilbert's story, " The Struggle in Ferrara," which has
been coming out in the Sunday Magazine. Mr. Gilbert
some years ago contemplated vgriting. the life of R4n4e,
Duchess of Ferrara ; but hearing that M. Jules Bonnet,
author of the charming " Vie d'Olympia Morata," was
engaged on the same subject, he wrote to M. Bonnet to
say that he (Mr. Gilbert) would leave the field to him
so far as a biography was concerned. He however
used his materials in a tale. Unfortunately M. Bonnet
has not fulfilled his promise, made now more than twelve
years ago. Mr. Henry Blackburn, author of charming
books on Spain and Brittany, is publishing an elaborate
illustrated work on the Ammergau Miracle Play. Miss
Yonge, the editress of the Monthly Packet, and authoress
of " The Heir of Redcliffe," has in the press " Musings on
the Christian Year," The new volume of Macmillan's
" Sunday Library " is the life of St. Anselm.
I am authorised to contradict the report which first
ppeared in a north-country paper that Lord Lytton is
writing a new novel for Messrs. Blackwood.

At the Glamorganshire Assizes on Wednesday
three young men were severally sentenced to ten years'
penal servitude for a gross outrage committed on a married
woman in April last.
