the Marchioness of Ely.
Professor Lister, Surgeon in Ordinary to the Queen, ar-
rived at the Castle, returning to Edinburgh the same day.
A bonfire was lighted on Craig Gowan in the evening,
and a dance took place in the servants' hall, in honour of
the engagement of Princess Louise to the Marquis of
Lorne. The Queen, Prince Leopold, and Princess Bea-
trice were present part of the time.

Navy, has recovered from his late severe attack of illness,

THE SCOTCH EDUCATION BILL.—We understand
that Mr. Forster, who was at one time expected to draw
up the Education Bill for Scotland, is not to do so ; and it
is now rumoured that Lord Advocate Young has been
requested to draw up the bill.

THE LONDON POOR.—Pauperism in the metro-
polis exhibits a slight decrease as compared with the
returns of last year. In the fifth week of October the
number of persons in receipt of parochial relief in London
was 132,537, and of these 34,628 were in the workhouses,
and 97,909 were out-door paupers. The total shews a
decrease of 3,645 upon the figures of the corresponding
period in 1869.

THE NEW VICAR OF BRIGHTON.—The Rev. Dr.
Hannah, late Warden of Trinity College, Glenalmond,
and Bampton Lecturer at Oxford in the year 1863, has
just been appointed by the Bishop of Chichester Vicar of
Brighton. Besides his Bampton Lectures, Dr. Hannah is
the author of a volume of "Discourses on the Fall and
its Results." He has also edited, with discriminating
learning, several of our old English poets.
SLAVERY IN BRAZIL—The committee of the
British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society; having heard
of the arrival in this country of the Count d'Eu, heir ap-
parent to the Emperor of Brazil, presented his Royal
highness with an address. This document expressed an
ardent desire for the complete abolition of slavery in the
great empire of Brazil, and recommended complete, over
all partial and imperfect measures of emancipation. The
Count has replied, thanking the society for the kindness
which dictated the presentation of the address.
Twir, ENGLISH FREEMASONS.—At a meeting of the
Freemasons of East Lancashire, held in the Free-trade
Hall, Manchester, on Wednesday, Brother Lieutenant-

Grand Master. The ceremony of installation was per-
