THE PLEBISCITE.

Various items of news touching the French politi-
cal situation are contributed by the correspondents of
the Telegraph and Times. The contributor to the
latter journal says there will be no increase of Cabi-
net Ministers. The announcement of the Pl6biscite
will be accompanied by an Imperial proclamation,
and followed by a Ministerial manifesto.
The famous Telegraph correspondent makes some
startling affirmations :—" The Commtitee of the
Senate orders that the vote shall be taken between
the Empire with order, and a Republic. The Right
and Left Centres have joined in support of the Go-
vernment. The extreme factions are broken up."
Of which it may be said that this is not the first time
that the extreme factions have been broken up, nor
the first time that the Right and Left Centres have
"joined ;" and yet the former have always displayed
considerable vitality, whilst the two Centres never
yet could agree long. Only a few days have elapsed
since the only two Cabinet Ministers who
represented the Left Centre have resigned office,
9.nd yet the Telegraph assures us that both sections
are "joined." Whatever may be done by the Pays or
the Patrie, English journals ought not to print such
rubbish.
WHERE ARE THE HIPPOPHAGISTS
Everyone remembers the celebrated horse-flesh
dinner held at the Langhani Hotel some year or so
since, of which the papers gave such graphic reports,
and which was attended by gentlemen in high
positions who affirmed that ere long hippophagy
would become an institution in this country. But
do those gentlemen think so now ? Has
hippophagy spread ? And has " the noble
animal " been frequently selected for the
same fate as other beasts of the field ? These ques-
tions naturally arise when one learns that during the
last year there has been a considerable rise in the
consumption of horse-flesh in Paris. The total
number killed was 2,768, which means that more
than a million pounds of horse flesh was partaken of
as food. The fact that after so short a 'time the
Parisians should not only like horse-flesh, but that
the consumption of it should increase, is
worthy of note. English
prejudice has doubtless
had its effect in preventing a similar • result in this
country.

DRUNKEN INDEED.
If the statement made by the Hon. S. Cary, that
Scotland was the most drunken of her Majesty's
Dominions be correct, it must be drunken indeed. His
" '
accuracy was challenged by several natives of the
Lando cakes "
and it is to be hoped that he was
misinformed. If there is more drinking in either
Glasgow or Edinburgh than in Liverpool,
those towns must stand in need of the
most earnest temperance advocacy. In one day at
Liverpool no fewer than 182 persons were charged
with drunkenness, and only one-third of them when
apprehended had money in their possession. The
aggregate amount was but £2l IGs., and out of
this one man contributed 7s. One

SAFETY OF THE STEAMER SIRIUS.

A telegram from Madras, dated April 20, states
that the steamer Sirius was spoken with five da s
ago off Basses, or Baxas Cape, a headland on the
eastern coast of Africa, with her cylinder broken,
and the shaft damaged. With the exception of the
damage to the machinery all was well on board.
She was 93 days out from Liverpool to Calcutta, via
the Cape of Good Hope, and the mishap to her
engines compelled her to proceed under sail. She
was within a few days' sail of the port of destination.
A premium of 25 guineas has recently been paid to
effect fresh innrances upon her.

LOPEZ.

Additional items of news from the seat of the
late war in South 4merica shew that the Brazilians
aro dealing magnanimously with their victory. We
are told that the war is completely at an end, all the
scattered Paraguayan troops have surrendered
to General Camara, and there are no
longer any of Lopez's men in the field.
The Brazilian troops will immediately evacuate Para-
guay, an announcement which is in some sort evi-
dence that the Brazilians do not contemplate retaining
the conquered territory. Lopez's body has been
embalmed and sent to Rio. Mrs. Lynch is coming to
Europe. What will become of Paraguay, if the Bra-
zilians do not annex it, seems doubtful.

ELECTORAL DISABILITIES OF WOMEN.

Mrs. Fawcett has delivered a lecture in Dublin
on the electoral disabilities of women. This is nit
the first time she has been heard on the subject else-.
where, and in this, as in her appearance at Brighton
and Greenwich, she was warmly received. The argu-
ments used by the lecturer were chiefly those adduced
on the previous occasions. She said her object was
to chew that man's rights and woman's rights must
stand or fall together, and that their maintenance
must tend to man's happiness. Equity, she con-
tended, knew no difference of sea; the law of actual
freedom necessarily applied to the whole human race,
male as well as female.

MR. MUNDELLA AND BOARDS OF ARBITRATION.
One of the Secretaries to the Board of Arbitration
n the Potteries—Mr. Owen—writes to a contemporary
in reference to Mr. Mundella's connection with
Boards of Arbitration and Lord Elcho's remarks
thereon. He states that though there existed in the
Potteries till four years ago a form of agreement
annually submitted by employers to men, in
which there was a clause for reference of disputes to
a board of three masters, and the same number of
employes, still that clause was practically inoperative.
It was simply a means of arbitration between
individual masters and individual workmen, and did
not touch disputes affecting all the masters and
all the men. This was one of the causes
why the. operatives were not satisfied with the
arrangement, and in the end they struck against the
system. Mr. Owen says that the member for Shef-
field's name is honourably associated with the new
system of boards of arbitration, which are practical,
in themselves,permanent, and always ready for action.
Mr. Mundella was not the person who invented the
principle of arbitration, nor was he the first to apply
it to industrial disputes; but he, with Mr. Kettle,
systematised the principle, and made boards of arbi-
tration national institutions.
London, England, 1870-04-21

Mr. Pease, member for South Durham, made an
important announcement at a meeting of the South
Durham Liberal Registration Society. He had good
authority for stating that Mr. Leatham's Ballot
Bill will be withdrawn, and that the Marquis of
Hartington; on the part of the Government,
will introduce a comprehensive measure for the
reform of our system of conducting elections, of
which the Ballot will,be a part, This denotes that
the GOvernment have greater confidence in. the
progress of public business than' the majority of !veil
their warmest supporters.

CONTESTED ELECTIONS IN IRELAND.

The Bcotsinart alludes to the easy working of the
Election Petitions Act- in Ireland; and the'evils re-
sulting therefrom. With the exception, it
says, of the " . election in Antrim County,
and the return of Mr. Powse for Londonderry
when he was made Solicitor-General for Ireland,
there has-hardly been an electoral victory since the
general ,election which hee .not been petitioned
against, - and in which the petition has not'
been .successfpl. With . unlimited eagerness
ilfe. people accept service in the interest of
a candidate, and with unhesitating, treachery they
betray Man when the election is over. .This state of
things, adds the Scotsinau, may work its own cure.
'The prospectr it thinks, is that the pre-
ent system in Ireland will bring all electioneer-
ing there to an end, for it is not easy to -see how.
such constituencies as that of Mallow can be allowed
exercite.nolitical rights.

iatisfaction. The useful perambulators who sell
needles and tapes to the old women of obscure
country villages could, ill be dispensed with by those
who purchase their wares; and yet this class of
traders has been subject to a licence which brought
little money to the Exchequer, whilst it burdened a
number of hard-working men. But the Leamington
Local Board has found reasons for unanimously
adopting a petition to Mr. Lowe against the abolition
of the licence. The guardians think that mendicity
will be extended, vagrants increased without
limit, and crime encouraged, by persons of
questionable character having a pretext by which
they could easily gain access to private residences.
No doubt a licence shackles the perambulation of
obnoxious characters. No doubt it every person had
to pay a licence for the privilege of taking a walk,
the number of disreputable persons prowling about
might diminish; end no doubt a competitive examina-
tion for the post of guardians would keep out such
ignorant men as those at Leamington. But it re-
mains to be seen how far the Legislature would be
justified in undertaking such duties.

of his colleague, Lord Justice Giffard usually hears ap-
peals by himself ; and the Lord Chancellor does the like.
Both of those judges are, by the universal acknowledg-
ment of the Equity Bar, consummate lawyers • but it is
no disparagement to their abilities to say that, acting
alone, they do not, and cannot, dispose of appeals in a
perfectly satisfactory manner. The proposition may be
boldly and broadly affirmed, that an appellate jurisdiction.
consisting of a single functionary is essentially unsatisfac-
tory. Helas to try whether an error has been committed hn
the court below—whether another of his brethren has
made a mistake. A reversal of the judgment given is
the first instance is therefore always somewhat invidious;
though, where the appeal justices are numerous, that
feeling, for obvious reasons, has but little influence. Be.
sides, however vigilant and cautious a judge may be, he
cannot, during a long argument, continue so uniformly
attentive that nothing of importance escapes him. The
help which two or three sitting together give to each
other is immense. Nobody can know the full value of
such assistance without some practical experience ; it is
obvious that the points which one fails to catch will pro-
bably be noted by another. The grand desideratum of an
appellate jurisdiction is an overwhelming authority, such
as to make even the most litigious disinclined tc
continue the litigation. The Government proposes to
establish a numerously constituted court of appeal both
from common law and from equity judges. The judgments
of a tribunal so constituted will have such weight that
suitors, we may reckon, will rarely carry their causes be-
yond it to the House of Lords. The English system of
4udicature is universally respected by the people for its
impartiality and its learning ; but it is the most oompli•
cated in the world, and the steps now taken to *simplify it
shew that juridical science is making real progress in thilt
later half of tho nineteenth century.

RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.

Mr. Mappin has expressed his surprise that railway
accidents are not more frequent from the breaking
down of goods and coal trains. The ordinary prac-
tice is to couple the waggons and trucks together by
one or two chains, leaving room for plenty of play
between the buffers. Of course the natural result
is that at every stopphge a severe jerk
takes place, and the chains are either frac-
tured or strained. Mr. Mappin is of opinion
that goods and coal trains should be coupled
in the same way as passenger trains. Some people
hold, however, that even passenger car-
riages might be connected on a more improved prin-
ciple than at present prevails. The disagreeable
shaking of the train would be in a great measure
avoided, and the passengers themselves would be
able to devote their attention to subjects of more
importance than the preservation of their equili-
brium.

A MEMORIAL TO SIR JAMES SIMPSON.

The name of Sir James Simpson is not likely to
be forgotten so long as human sufferings are soothed
by his application of the beneficent anodyne. Never-,
theless it is only right and fitting that the generation
in which he has laboured should do honour to his
memory. A meeting has been held with this object
at Stafford House, under the presidency of the Duke
of Sutherland, and it was attended by many distin-
guished membfts of the profession, as well ns by
other gentlemen of position and influence. The
first resolution was moved by Sir Roderick
Murchison, and indicated the general purpose of the
meeting; the second proposed by the Earl of Dal-
housie, suggested that the proposed memorial should
take the form of a hospital for women. This scheme
being generally approved - of, it was decided that a
committee should be formed in London to co-operate
with the other committees in Scotland. In the
course of the proceedings Mr. Pender, one of Sir
James Simpson's trustees, stated that although the
late distinguished physician might have died a -very rich
man, he had ended his days comparatively poor. His
friend believed that three-fourths of his income
was spent in acts of kindness, while his whole life
was devoted to the promotion of science, and the
alleviation of suffeling. No memorial of such a life
could be more apposite, or could more worthily do
honour to the eminent public benefactor than the
perManent endowment of a hospital such as he had
always wished to raise, and such as he had for years
supported out of his own private income.

THE ORLEANIST PRINCES.

A measure has been laid before the French Parlia-
ment for the purpose of repealing the decree of banish-
ment against the Orleanist princes now living in
England, and of allowing them to return to their
country. The Comte de Paris, the Prince de Join-
ville, the Duc d' kurnale, and the Duc de Chartres,
have addressed a letter to the LegiFlative Body asking
that the measure may be passed. "It is
not a favour that we ask : it is our
right, a right which belongs to all French-
men, and of which we alone are de-
spoiled. It is our country to which we ask to be
restored—our country which we love, which our
family has always loyally served, from which not
one of our traditions separates us, and whose name
alone ever makes our hearts beat ; for nothing can
compensate the exiled for their absent country." It
is to be hoped that the subservient Right will so far
shake off its ancient traditions, and permit this
measure of justice. These Princes are amongst the
best representatives their houie has ever produced.

PRISON WARDERS,

Mr. FLOYER asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department whether, as stated at the inquest on Edward
Bly, one of the warders at the convict prison at Port, and
he had been placed in sole charge of tne working convict
party in consequence, among other reasons, of the require-
ments of the War, Admiralty, and Prison Departments ;
And, whether, considering that several warders had lost
their lives within no long period from murderous assaults
upon them by convicts, it was not possible to make better
provision for the safety of such officers in charge of work-
ing parties, especially when the parties were employed as
such a distance from each other that assistance in case of
need could not be immediately given.
Mr. BRUCE replied that the working parties in the
prison were employed upon works of the Admiralty, and
were distributed as far as possible to meet the require-
ments of the works, having regard to the number of
officers available to superintend. It was quite true that
many parties were in charge of only one officer ; but there
were always other officers close at hand, with guards and
sentries ready to render necessary assistance. It was the
duty of every officer to keep the prisoners in his front,
and he regretted to say that in consequence of neglecting
that rule the unfortunate warder referred to was killed.
Of course, it was 'impossible, whatever care might be
taken, when a person was bent upon a savage assault, and
the officials were not aware of his intention, to prevent
the attack. He had made inquirieki in the matter, and
he found that every reasonable precaution was taken.

THE ORLEANIST PRINCES.

The Figaro and the Gaulois say that, in reply to the
Orleans letter, the Emperor has written to Emile 011ivier
to the effect that he is anxious by a spontaneous measure
to put an end to the exile of the Bourbon princes, and
begging him to inform them that it has ceased as far as
they are concerned. This letter is not believed to be
genuine, as the Emperor, however anxious to do so, has
no power to repeal a law by his mere motu proprio. The
Temps considers that the Princes could do no less than
write such a letter after the notice of interpeliation given
by M. de Piro. The letter in its eloquent brevity is that
of French citizens who claim their common rights in the
land of their birth. Thr Temps thinks that such a letter
ought not to have been needed, and it cannot believe that
it will now be evaded or rejected. The Patric confines
itself to publishing the letter, which it designates as
an important document. The Opinion Nationale re-
gards the letter as a grave fact, and adds that it has
reason to believe the committee to which it has been
referred will report on Saturday. The Parlement pub-
lishes the document without comment. The Liberte
considers the letter as honourable to the princes,
but reminds them that they have only had
to submit, as others have done, to the law of
revolution. In 1830 the younger Bourbon branch
banirhed the elder branch. In politics such ostracisms are
legitimate, but it would be aworthy crowning of the edifice
of a dynasty to recal the exiles and thus prove that is is not
by force but by the consent of 40,000,000 of Frenchmen
that the present Government exists.

HONOUR TO WHOM HONOUR IS DUE.

The career of the young nobleman whose bones
have just been laid in the secluded cemetery 'at
Christ Church, Hampshire, has no doubt in some
instances afforded ground for censure. But as
Lord A. Clinton's acts may be traced rather to
thoughtlessness and folly than to any criminal ten-
dency of disposition, the fair fame which there
is undoubted record to prove he. deservedly gained
for himself as a British sailor must not at
this period be allowed to lose its lustre
among brave and just Englishmen. Lord
krthur entered the Navy as a midshipman at a very
early age, and from his first day on board ship he
was held in esteem by his brother officers. In the
year 1861 he became lieutenant, having achieved
many marks of distinction for his valour and courage
in trying times. During the Indian mutiny the gal-
lant young sailor served under Captain Sir William
Peel in the Naval Brigade, and he is mentioned
as one of the first to enter Lucknow.
during the siege. In the struggle he received a
wound, which, however, soon healed, and
he came home to England to receive two gold clasp
medals from the Queen's hands for his valiant con-
duct. his name was many times referred to with
honour in the despatches sent from India. It was
soon after the 1857-58 campaign that Lord A. Clinton
retired from active service, perhaps unfortunately for
his future. 'His Lordship was placed on the reserve
list on half-pay, and on coming of age he started an
apparently wild life in England, where there were
few members of his own family to watch over his
mode of living and counsel him as to the many things
expected of him.

MORE BABY FARMING.

An example of the growth of the cruel and immo-
ral practice which has attracted the attention of the
public during the past fortnight, has been brought
under the notice of the coroner for Central Middle-
sex. At an inquest held at Holloway on the body
of an illegitimate child, whose age at the time
of death was four months, a Mrs. Cooper, living at
Bryant's-place, Islington, informed the court
that she had obtained the child' by putting a bill in
her window. The description given by this person
of the condition of the unfortunate infant was hariow-
ing in its details, and from the evidence both of the
mother and the baby-farmer there is little doubt
that death arose from starvation. The jury, with the
severity characteristic of British justice, censured the
mother

BUMBLEDOM AT NAZARETH.

Mr. Bumble has been paying a visit to a locality
where his services were but little needed. Nazareth
House, the residence of a community of benevolent
sisters at Hammersmith, has been invaded by the
" parochial authorities," and a distress warrant has
been put in execution to enforce payment of some
rates. The results have been most disastrous. The
house of charity has been stripped; the sisters are
loft destitute, and the poor old men and women
whom the sisters supported are deprived of the little
comforts which they have hitherto enjoyed. The chairs
and tables have disappeared from the sitting-room, so
th at the poor people have to take their meals sitting on
the floor. In the infirmary the chairs have been
seized ; and the rooms of the sisters themselves are
empty of furniture. This act may well be described
as " insensate oppression." It is well that guardians
should have their due ; but there is no rule without
an exception, and the case of Nazareth House might
well have been made one. If by supporting these
old men and women the sisters keep them from the
workhouse, what do the guardians lose ?

COMMEMORATION.

The playful banter, the chaff and licence—not to
say vulgarity, which characterise the doings of the
undergraduates at Oxford, are the subject of a some-
what anxious article in the Standard. The guardian
of Conservative interests admits that this sort of
thing cannot be altogether right. Nevertheless,
it is a display '• which no healthy-minded
Englishman would care to lose." And why ? The
undergraduates are the august body which guides and
forms the opinions of the nation, and preserves its
Conservative tendency. The cheers which greet the
Tory, and the groans which await the Liberal' reci-
pients of degrees are invaluable as educating the public
in the right political faith. The voices of the undergra
dilates represent" a very rare kind of public opinion a_
to the characters and the conduct of the leading men
of the day. It is not only that this opinion is utterly
sincere, and free from bias or guile, but that it is
really of a high order." This is pretty well. There can
be no doubt that the howls of the gallery at Commemo-
ration" represent a very rare kind of public opinion,"
and the rarer the better ; but we had yet to learn
that such opinion was intrinsically valuable, or that
it was of a high order. To the uneducated mind the
behaviour of the undergraduates is an exhibition
both coarse and disgraceful, and an ugly symptom of
that vulgarity which no education seems to efface from
the British character. Nothing need be said as to the
preference of the gallery for the Conservative digni-
taries. We all know who said that the glory of
being further behind the time than any other portion
of the British people is one which the University of
Oxford acquired early, and has never lost.

GALLANT ACTION.

In connection with the collision which occurred between
two railway trains near Newcastle a deed of true heroism
is recorded. When the collision took place, one of the
engines received such a shock that its connection with
the carriages behind was severed, and the engine
driver and stoker were thrown off. The engine
kept the rails, and dashed along towards Newcastle at a
high rate of speed. The driver of another engine, named
Steel, on seeing what had occurred, at once started in
pursuit. He overtook the runaway about the Manors
Station, and, at the risk of his life, springing from his
own engine on to the other, managed to stop it just a
few yards before entering the Central Station, Newcastle,
where, but for the success which attended Steel's
bravery, serious mischief would doubtless have been
done.

LAW-LOVING SCOTCHMEN.

Scotchmen have hitherto been allowed to appro-
priate to themselves credit for what is considered a
national characteristic. Common sense is supposed
to be as indigenous to Scotland as her prickly
emblem, and for centuries this belief has been
allowed to go unquestioned. But there is an end
to all this. The glory has departed, and
for the future the land o' cakes must be
content to take a position of inferiority
to that which she has so long assumed.
The case just heard by the House of Lords is one of
those astonishing pieces of absurdity that might
sometimes crop up in Laputa, but which one hardl y
expects to see discussed in a British Court of Law.
To settle a dispute about a triangular plot of ground
said to be worth ss. does not present to the ordi-
nary mind any great difficulty, but nevertheless it has
cost two Scotch gentlemen much trouble and money be-
fore the difference has been disposed of. Given the heavy
fees of such lawyers as Sir Roundell Palmer, the
Lord Advocate, and Mr. Mellish, Q.C., how many
acres of laud could be purchased for the aggregate
amount ? Add to this the value of the time spent
by the various judges of the Court of Session,besides
the lords in the Appeal Court, to say nothing of the
expenses of witnesses, and other costs, and the sum
would be sufficient to buy a small province in Ger-
many. Well might Lord Chelmsford remark on the
state of the law which permits such abuses.

A MEMORIAL TO SIR JAMES SIMPSON.

The name of Sir James Simpson is = not likely to
be forgotten so long as human sufferings are soothed
by his application of the beneficent anodyne. Never-
theless it is only right and fitting that the generation
in which he has laboured should do honour to his
memory. A meeting has been held with this object
at Stafford House, under the presidency of the Duke
of Sutherland, and it was attended by many distin-
guished members of the profession, as well as by
other gentlemen of position and influence. The
first resolution was moved by Sir Roderick
Murchison, and indicated the general purpose of the
meeting ; the second proposed by the Earl of Dal-
housie, suggested that the proposed memorial should
take the form of a hospital for women. This scheme
being generally approved ot, it was decided that a
committee should be formed in London to co-operate
with the other committees in Scotland. In the
course of the proceedings Mr. Pender, one of Sir
James Simpson's trustees, stated that although the
late distinguished physician might have died a very rich
man, he had ended his days comparatively poor. His
friend believed that three-fourths of his income
was spent in acts of kindness, while his whole life
was devoted to the promotion of science, and the
alleviation of suffering. No memorial of such a life
could be more apposite, or could more worthily do
honour to the eminent public benefactor than the
permanent endowment of a hospital such as he had
always wished to raise, and such as he had for years
supported out of his own private income.

THE CUBAN DIFFICULTY.

In the sitting of the Senate Mr. Sumner introduced a
substitute for the resolution passed. by the House of
Representatives with reference to Cuba. It protests
against the barbarities of the war, and insists on their
cessation. It also expresses regret that Spain continues
the system of negro slavery in Cuba, and that she per-
sists in her efforts to maintain by violence her jurisdic-
tion over the island contrary to the laws of progress.
The resolution is regarded as antagonistic to the policy of
the Administration. The Commissioner of Agriculture
estimates the present wheat crop at a decrease of 5 per
cent. throughout the country, while the hay is estimated
largely to exceed the average. Cotton also promises to
exceed the crop of last year.

MORE RIOTING IN CORK.
(CENRTAL PRESS TELEGRAM.)

The streets of Cork were last night again filled with
disorderly crowds, and a repetition of the riots being
feared the troops and police under arms were dis-
tributed through the disturbed districts. At the police
office yesterday the magistrates stated that, if necessary,
the entire garrison would be called out, and extreme
measures used to suppress the disturbances. A monster
trade meeting has been convened for Sunday, to protest
against the conduct of the master tailors during the strike.
CORK, Saturday Morning.

Rioting was resumed in Cork after nightfall. The
police patrols were repeatedly assailed with stones, and
had to make frequent bayonet charges to clear the streets,
and the dragoons and mounted police were employed for
the same purpose. The mob extinguished the lamps in
Academy-street, and formed barricades with carts, but
fled on the approach of the police. Two houses in
Patrick-street and Nelson-place were wrecked. The
police having received information that the rioters intended
seizing the gas works to cut off the supply from the city
a guard was placed over the works. The Riot Act was
read at eleven o'clock, and tranquillity was restored at
midnight, but the troops and police still occupy the streets.
Several casualties are reported. One soldier had his skull
fractured, and many of the police were hurt with stones.
Several arrests have been made.
