THE DUKE OF MONTPENSIER.

The Duke of Montpensier has addressed a letter to the
Iberia, the organ of the Spanish Government, with respect
to a recent article published in its columns. He compli-
rn3nts the Iberia on its courtesy, and says that he seldom
notices the attacks made upon him by the press. He
cannot take the simplest step without the most serious con
struction being placed on it. His recent visit to Spain
ha 3, however • given rise to suspicions which the
Iberia advises him to disperse by explicit declarations. In
answer to this suggestion, the Duke positively declares
that he is not, and never was, among the pretenders to the
crown. He took the Oath of the Constitution in 1869,
and he reminds the public that in December 1868 he ex-
plicitly said that he respected the resolution of the Consti-
tutional Cortes, which he held to represent then, as now,
the national sovereignty. In making this declaration he
promised to accept and defend whatever monarchy was
elected, and he thought that he had said enough to
have a right to keep silence in the future.
If the men of the diverse parties which divide Spain
have thought of him as a possible 'occupant of
the throne, it has been from no understanding with
him, though he thanks them for the honour done him.
Although the desire of contributing to the happiness of a
great people would be a noble object, he has authorised no
one to act on his behalf in this respect. In awaiting the
formation of a definite constitution, he is content to
remain a simple citizen and soldier loving the country in
which he lived happily for twenty-one years, and whisk
gave birth to his wife's children.

AGRICUTURAL PROSPECTS.

- -
A marked change (observes the Magitet) has takti. place
in the weather. .All vestiges of the late severe frost have
entirely disappeared, and the mild humid atmosphere now
prevailing may be taken as a sure guarantee of the
near approach of Spring. After the recent extreme col('
the alteration in the aspect of affairs is generally re-
garded with satisfaction. The land has been well
prepared by pulverisation for spring sowing, and doubt
less progress will shortly be made with this operation..
The wheat plant as yet appears to have escaped all da.
Cage; and whilst being not too forward for the season,
mostly presents indications of a healthy and vigorout
constitutlon. A few showers, however, accompanied by
warm sunshine, would certainly be of service, as affording
a mild stimulus to vegetation. The pastures are mostly
bare of grass, aad there has been, 44 cpmeT449o,
stronzer mauiry for feeding' stuffs. '

THE SAN DONATO SALE.

The third day's sale of the San Donato collection took
place on Saturday, comprising the paintings of the French
school of the 18th century, and the marbles of Pradier,
Debay, Cld.iinger, Le Chesne, and others. Long before
the hour fixed for the sale the rooms were crowded
by intending purchasers, by amataurs and spectators of
various kinds, many of whom were ladies. The names of
Boucher, de Fragonard, de Schall, and Greuze were
sufficient to attract an immekse number of eager
visitors. Of Greuze's paintings, there were nineteen, all
of which sold for high sums, the nineteen producing
no less thaQ 723,500 f. One of them was a Bacchante,
which formed part of the gallery of King Stanislas of
Poland, and its acquisition was the first step
towards this collection of Greuzes. It sold for
59,000 f. "Morning," a charming figure, was sold
for 77,000 f. ; " The Dreamer" for 29,000; "The
Favourite " for 60,000. • " The Child with Apples,"
was 31,000 f. ; " The Listener," 31,500 f. HigheSt of 'all
was the price given for " La Fille au Chien," which sold
for 89,000 f. "The Favourite," already mentioned, is
said to be one of the many portraits of Greuze's wife,
whom he painted under so many different aspects. She
holds a little dog in her arms in this
painting, and wears her hair in powder. Many of the
other paintings were greatly admired, and were eagerly
sought after, though the chief attraction centred on
the works of Greuze. The marbles were also very fine.
Two of them, by Le Chesne, representing a dog saving a
child from a serpent, are familiar to English art lovers.
A few of Canova's figures were among the collection, as
well as Cl6singer's famous Bacchante, which was bought
for 13,500 f., and Debay's " First Cradle (Eve holding
Cain and Abel in her arms), which fetched 18,000 f. The
marbles were 77,900 f. Altogether, the product of the
day's sale was 1,020,200 f.

UILEDIT FONCIER OF ENGLAND.
MONDAY.

An extraortllhary general meeting of the Cr&nit Foncier
of England (Limited) was held at the City Terminus
llotel, Cannon-street, to-day, Mr. Mowatt in the chair,
for the purpose of confirming a resolution passed at a
meeting on the 4th instant, authorising an addition to the
Articles of Association of a new section providing for the
reduction of the capital to the nominal amount of shares.
This resolution having been confirmed without opposition,
the meeting was made special, when the following resolu-
tion was agreed to :—" Resolved. That the present
capital of the company, consisting of £1,000,000, divided
into £200,000 shares of £lO each, be reduced to £1,000,000,
divided into 200,000 of £5 each, and that conditions con-
tained in the company's memorandum of association be
modified accordingly."

The CHAIRMAN announced that a formal meeting would
be held after the expiration of fourteen days, to confirm
the above resolution, and conclude the proceedings neces-
sary to secure the desired reduction.
The meeting then separated.

THE DIVORCE COURT.

Captain DAWSON-DAMER asked the Secretary of State
for the Home Department whether it might not be practi-
cable, and in the interest of public morality, to impose
some check upon the publication of the proceedings of the
Divorce Court.

Mr. BLUCE said the subject was very fully considered
by this House on a discussion of the Divorce Court Bill in
1859. On the recommendation of the late Sir Cresswell
Cresswell a clause was proposed which enabled the judge
on his discretion to hear cases with closed doors, but after
full discussion by this Houie the clause was rejected.
The House thought that, on the whole, public morality
was a gainer rather than a loser by publicity. (Hear,
hear.)

THE FRENCH MINISTRY.

Count Daru has received a letter from the Emperor
felicitating him fOr his speech in the Chamber, and thank-
ing him for it. The letter is said to be couched in the
most flattering terms. Rumours of divisions in the• Cab-
inet are still rife, and it was confidently stated on Satur-
day that M. Clievandier de Valdrome (Minister of the
Interior) had resigned. This was positively denied ; but
a difference is believed to have arisen between him and
M. 011ivier. M. de Valdrome is accused of not
dealing openly and frankly with his colleagues,
and of having in view the possibility of joining
another combination. At the end of the sitting in the
Chambers on Friday, a somewhat angry altercation arose
between the two Ministers, which was renewed in the
evening when there was only one deputy present. The
Minister of the Interior was considerably irritated at the
decided attitude assumed by M. 011ivier, whose language
differed a little from his own. The Keeper of the Seals
was induced to take this course by the intelligence of a
manoeuvre in contemplation ori the Right to overthrow
the Ministry, and replace it by a Forcade Cabinet.
Such a Ministry would not have a moment's chance
with the country, but M. 011ivier was naturally disin-
clined to see the experiment made ; and as it was to him
that the Emperor especially confided the task of esta-
blishing Parliamentary Government, he gave M. Chevan-
dier de Valdrome to understond his position.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.--(THIS DAY.)

Sales probably 8,000 or 10,000 bales. The market
dull.

UONFIRMATION Olr MR. GLADSTONE'S SON.—The
Joungest son of Mr. Gladstone was confirmed at St.
ohn's Church, Brixton, by the Bishop of Winchester on
Sunday afternoon. Mr. Mrs., and the Misses Gladstone
were present at the service. Some of the family of the
Prime Minister had lunch with the vicar, the Rev. Dr.
Mansfield, after the morning service, at which the bishop
had preached for the liquidation of a debt on the church.
The congregation was a very crowded one.
ICE IN THE VlSTULA.—Letters from the Lower
Vistula state that the inhabitants of the district are
greatly alarmed by the accumulation of drift-ice in the
river. They fear that the obstruction caused to the cur-
rent may lead to a repetition of the inundation and
disasters of 1829. In Dirsclean the people are watching
with uneasiness a great and increasing mass of ice, which
has been stopped in its course to the sea by the piers
the great bridge.
THE PROSECUTION OF THE REV. MR. BENNETT.
—Notice has been served on Messrs. Moore and Currey,
the proctors for the Church Association, from the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council, that their lordships had
appointed the 26th March instant for the hearing of the
appeal " Sheppard v. Bennett." This case involves the
doctrines of the Church of Englaid, and is an appeal from
the Arches Court on the admission of the articles. The
question raised is as to the reception of the Holy Com-
munion by the wicked. The Archbishop of York and
the Bishop of London are expected to sit on the com-
mittee.

THE GRAND DUCIIY OF BADEN.—The full text
of Count Bismarck's two speeches in the Federal Parlia-
mont on the annexation of Baden has now been published.
They have produced a great impression at Berlin ; the
organs of the Conservative party are in triumph, while
the Gazette Nationale predicts a • decided rupture between
the Federal Government and the national Liberals. In
Baden the latter have reason to resent the decided manner
in which the Count has repelled their advances. He
re;;Tetted the introduction of the measure as prejudicial to
tho interests of the country, and destruetive of the har-
mony which should influence the House in its treatment
of foreign affairs.

MISS CARPENTER, IN INDIA.—The Indian papers
mention some particulars of Miss Mary Carpenter's visits
to various institutions. She pconounced the Nagpore Gaol
to be the best managed she had seen in India. The
mission schools and the bishop's schools received her com-
mendation. On the occasion of her visit to Broach she
carefully exsmined the girl's schools there, of which there
are three Parsee and one Hindoo, and having been
extremely pleased with the progress of the children she
sent a number of prizes to be distributed among them. The
Cluzarat Aligns corroborates the statement of the Indu
Pro,'' 3.4 that Miss Mary Carpenter intends to open
femoie twining-school in Surat, after thpmcleioL the

LIFEBOAT SERVICES.—During the Storms
of the past twelve months the National Life-
boat Institution contributed to the saving of 1,233 lives
from various shipwrecks and 29 vessels from destruction,
The Institution also expended £24,746 in the same period
on its Lifeboat Establishments, in addition to granting
0,741 for rewards.

ST. DAVID'S DAY.

To-day being the anniversary of the birth of St.
David, the patron saint of Wales, and the 155th
anniversary festival of the Loyal Society of
Ancient Britons Welsh Charity School, a large
number of gentlemen connected with the princi-
pality proceeded to Ashford, where they inspected
their institutions, and afterwards attended ser-
vice in the school chapel. This evening they
will dine together at Willis's Rooms, under the
presidency of Lord Hyde, M.P. St. David, whose
festival Welshmen honour to-day, was Bishop of
Caerleon, and the Metropolitan of the Welsh Church
in the fifth century. He subsequently removed his
see to Mynyw, which came to becalled Ty Dewi, or
the House of St. David. There are many churches
dedicated to him in Wales; but the notion of his
being the patron saint of that country, and his
originating its symbol in the leek, are treated as
modern inventions. The wearing of the leek in
Wales on St. David's-day probably originated from
the custom of Cymhortha, or " the friendly," and
practised amongst farmers.

NAVY PROMOTION AND RETIREMENT.

Mr. Childers's proposals respecting Navy pro-

Council, have been issued to-day. The changes, it

extend the system of compulsory retirement, to
grant officers increased facilities for retiring from
active employment, to provide a new scale of re-
tired pay, &e.

FURTHER REDUCTIONS.

The reductions have at length touched the
schools for military instructions. The Governor of
the Military College at Sandhurst has given notice
to thirteen of the professors that their places will
be abolished at midsummer. A number of college
servants have been summarily dismised, and it is
stated that the staff officers and sergeants at the
establishment will shortly be reduced considerably.

DRL9TOL.

One or two journals, with remarkable elegance,
announce that "it has been rumoured in Bristol
during the last two or three days that Mr. Berkeley's
protracted illness has assumed a more unfavourable
character, and consequently the matter of the repro-
sentation has become a more open subject of discussion."
Mr. Hodgson, who formerly sat for the borough of
Bridport, Mr. Charles Berkeley, a nephew of the
sitting member, Mr. Robinson, who retired at the last
election, to avoid dividing the party, and Mr. Milner
Gibson, are spoken of. The Conservatives may try
their torture with Mr. Sholto Hare, and the working
men are thought to harbour terrible, though vague,
intentions. But as all these are mere speculations,
and as Mr. Berkeley's retirement has once been an-
nounced and contradicted, would it not be well for
Bristol politicians to display a little less feverish hash,
about a successor ?

BEARDS IN THE ARMY.

Mr. STACPOOLE asked the Secretary of State for ar
whether he was prepared to apply to the army serving in
the United Kingdom and the Colonies regulations as to
the wearing of beards similar to those now in operation in
the navy and Royal Marines, and recently issued in the
case of her Majesty's regiments in India.
Captain VIVIAN said his Royal Highness the Com-
mander-in-Chief was not prepared to apply the permission
to the army at home.

BREVETS IN THE ARMY,

Sir PATRICK O'BRIEN asked the Secretary of State for
War whether it was his intention to recommend to her
Majesty that in future brevets the subaltern officers of the
army be included.

Mr. CARDWELL said there was no intention of altering
the rule.

THE IMPRISONED BRITISH SAILOR

Sir HARCOURT JOHNSTONE asked the Under Secretary
of State for Foreign Affairs if any answer had been given
by the Spanish Government to the appeal made in June
last by the Foreign Office on behalf of a British sailor
imprisoned at Barcelona since June 1867.

Mr. OTWAY said he had that day received a telegram
from Mr. Layard stating that the sailorhad been released.
EMPLOYMENT OF SOLDIERS.
Mr. ILINBURY-TRACY asked the Secretary of State for
War whether it was the intention of the Government to
promulgate regulations for the employment of soldiers in
the trades which were connected with the supply of their
clothing and subsistence, the stores required for their use,
and the repair and construction of their dwellings; and, if
so, when they would be issued.

Mr. CARDWELL said it was the intention of the Govern-
ment to form a corps of artizans in most of the regiments
—a proceeding which would add to the pay of the soldier
without entailing any additional cost on the country.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.
,THE THORNCLIFFE RIOTS.

The Times, in discussing the position of the disputants
at Thorncliffe, observes that the behaviour of the men
during this quarrel with their masters has been so bad.
that if their rights or claims had been treated with in•
difference they could hardly have complained. Possibly,
though not certainly, the terms which Messrs.
Newton and Co. endeavoured to force upon
them were unnecessarily hard. Admitting, how-
ever, that the dispossessed miners had a grievance,
there is no justification for their conduct in attempting to
redress it. As soon as they had resolved to refuse their
work, they resolved also that no others should take what
they had left, and, in pursuance of this determination,
they resorted to systematic and organised outrage. This
is the-more to be regretted at a period when legislation on
the subject is imminent. We are asked, on behalf of Trade
Unions. to repeal the Combination Laws, because, as is
alleged, there is no occasion for them. Now, in the very face
of this argument, and within the last few weeks, we have
seen these combinations on a scale resembling those of
armies in the field, defying the law, destroyin!, the peace
of a populous district, and putting hundreds of persons for
months together in peril of their lives. Such a warning is
nat likely to, be lost ; and if any trade unions have really
been concerned, either by agency or connivance, in the
Thorncliffe riots, they will certainly find the proceeding
there brought to account against them.

TILE UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE.

- -a _

CAMBRIDGE, Monday.
The eight and the four have been out to-dap
under the care of Mr. Morrison, and of course the
changes have been rung again, and we should not
be faithful chroniclers if we did not say that 011
this shifting and changing of the men is having
a depressing effect on the minds of people here.
Mr. Close, who rowed stroke of the winning eight
at the trial eights at Ely last December, rowed et
No. 2, a place fur which he is every way fitted,
Blackburne being-transferred to the four. Morri-
son steered them down to theßailway-bridge, where
he handed the rudder strings to Gordon, and
accompanied the boat to Baitsbite and back to the
Railway-bridge. Winthrop (Trinity Hall) was then
tried at stroke, and Goldie accompanied Morrison
on the towing path. 'With Winthrop at stroke the
boat was; taken down to Ditton and back, when
they left their ship and walked up. The four rowed
to Baitsbite and back, Blackburne being at bow
and Macmichael at stroke. The pairs were not out
to-day.

There are fourteen entries for the Colquhoun
Scans, the race for which takes place on Thursday,
Friday, and Saturday. Close, of Trinity, or Atche-
ton, of Christ's, ought to win. There are a great
many boats in practice for the second and third
division races. The following are the names and
weights of the eight and four which rowed to-
day :
