A DICTATOR FOR SPAIN.

The Liberti states that the idea of a directory of three,
or any other number, has been found impracticable. A
scheme for entrusting supreme power to a lieutenant-
general of the kingdom, to be chosen by the Cortes, is
rising in public favour. The Liberte adds that a majority
of the deputies seem disposed to rally round Prim, whose
popularity, though slightly imperilled a little while ago,
is again in the ascendant.

The London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian
states that the hopes of the moderate constitutional party
are entirely crushed by the refusal of Dom Fernando to
accept the Crown, They will gradually and silently fall
into the ranks of the reactionists, and support the nomina-
tion of the boy Prince of Asturias, with Serrano for
Regent, and Olozaga for Minister.

TUE GREAT STRIKE IN BELGIUM.

The entire colliery district around Mons has become a
scene of industrial desolation. No further disorders were
reported up to Sunday, but the strike bad so greatly ex-
tended that perfect armies of workmen were assembled in
different parts of the country. The International Society
makes no secret of its share in this industrial quarrel. A
manifesto of violent tone has been circulated in the district
during the last few days ; but no special grievance is com-
plained of. The tyranny of masters and the oppression
of workmen are the topics upon which the committee
enlarge. It appears, however, that the old wages
difficulty was the proximate cause of the strike.
Business has been bad in the Mons district for
some time, and the wages of the workmen have suffered
by the depression. Their discontent has been gradually
rising to a crisis. The International Society has not
failed to profit by their mutinous disposition. Several
days ago the men employed in one of the pits demanded
an increase of wages, and on refusal ceased work. Others
followed, and by Friday the strike was general throughout
the Borinage. The malcontents did not hesitate to intimi-
date their companions. The men at least of one colliery were
obliged to come up and join the rest. Only one conflict
with the soldiers has taken place ; the troops were assailed
at Frameries, and formed square, firing from one side,
and killing two persons. All traces of the first strike at
Seraing have disappeared.

I2IPERIAL PARLI ADI ENT

HO SSE OF LORDS.-LAST EVENING.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.

The Royal assent was given to the Brazilian Slave-trade
Bill, the Railway Companies Bill, the East India Canal and
Irrigation, and several other bills.
THE CORONATION OATH.

The Earl of REDESDALE asked. if the Government
proposed to make auy alteration in the Coronation Oath
or to introduce any bill in relation thereto before the bill
now before the other house came up for discussion.
Eerl GRANVILLE said the Government believed that
the oath was imposed on the Sovereign in its executive
and not in its legislative capacity,'and therefore no legisla-
tion was necessary.

The Duke of ARGYLL laid on the table a bill to amend
the constitution of the India Council with a view of mak-
ing it stronger and more experienced. The bill would
limit all future appointments to ten years, with power to
the Secretary of State to re-appoint for five years more.
After some conversation, the bill was read a first time.
Their lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—LAST EVENING.
The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock.
SMOKING ON RAILWAYS.

Mr. F. B. SIIERIIIAN, who had on a former evening
succeeded in getting toe consent of the house to a
clause being inserted in the Metropolitan District Rail-
way Bill, on the further consideration of the Metropolitan
Railway Bill, moved the insertion of a similar clause in
the Metropolitan District Railways.
Mr. BRIGHT said he had heard the opinion of the direc-
tors with respect to the resolution which had been passed
the other evening, and taking their opinion, with the fact
that the abstinence from tobacco smoke could only
be for a short time, he hoped the house would attach a
proper value of the representation of the directors. If,
however, the hon. member pressed his clauso to a division
he should give his vote against it.
Mr. C. BENTINCK supported the clank, and Mr. T.
CHAMBERS opposed it.

The house divided, when there appeared—
For the clause
Against it
Majority against the clause --21
NEW 31E3113ER.

The Earl of MARCH took the oath and li!s seat for West
Sussex, in the room of Mr. lf. Wyndham, now Lord
Leconfield.

CHURCH LEASES.

Mr. FORT ESOUE, in reply to Dr. Ball, said the atten-
tion of the Government had been directed to the report of
the Irish Church Commissioners in favour of lessening
the price of purchasing the perpetuity of church leases.
The matter had been carefully considered, and it seemed
to be the general opinion that if the subject was to be
dealt with it would be better to have direct lesislation
rather than include it in the present bill.

CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED MURDER.—John Hurley, who
was stated to bo a convicted thief, was placed at the bar
charged as follows:

Joseph Faker, clothier, 6, York-street, Westminster,
wearing a surgical bandage on his head, said —At half-past
nine last night this man came into my shop aiid said, " I
want that money you owe me." I told him I owed him
none. He immediately said, "I mean scattering your
brains about your shop." He then pulled out a life-pre-
server and struck me about the head; he struck me twice
on the temple, and with another blow cut through my hat,
and might have killed me if I had not had my hat on. I
cried for assistance. Some people reached me with a po-
liceman, and he was taken into custody.
The life-pri.server, ona of the most fon:tillable descrip
tion, was produced. _

Mr. Arnold—Do you know the prisoner.
Prosecutor—l know him from a baby.
Mr. Arnold—You are remanded, prisoner, till Thursday.
Prisoner—Will you take bail ?
Mr. Arnold —No.

NORTON'S CAMOMILE PILLS are confi-
dently recommended as a simple but certain
Remedy for Indigestion, which is the cause of nearly all
the diseases to which we are subject, being a medicine so
uniformly grateful and beneficial that it is with justice
sailed the " Natural Strengthener of the Human Stomach.'
" Norton's Pills" act as a powerful tonic and gentle ape-

TILE LAIC) QUESTION.

Sad to say, while all this jubilation is going on in
honour of the Queen's son, the Queen's subjects
continue to be attacked by assassins. Two more
agrarian outrages are reported. \lr. H. C. Curry,
J.P., of Carry Lodge, county Leitrim, ms fired at on
Thursday morning when returning home from a
friend's house in the county of Cavan, but escaped

known. A farmer named Horan, living about ten
miles from Ennis, was fired at and wounded by
another farmer named M'Kesn, because he
proposed to hand over to his son-in-law a
portion of unclaimed bog which had beenin Ackean's
possession. 3l'Kean has absconded. The Times,
in a leader, follows up the hint given by the Spec-
tator on Saturday, that the Government should deal
with the land question this year. The second paper
says that wild hopes are being incited among the
peasantry as to the intentions of the Government
upon this matter ; and that it would be more prudent
to set bounds to these at once by publishing
the Government programme. The Times says : "It
is stated that in various districts in Ireland, such
as Westmeath and parts of Tipperary, there pre-
vails something like a resistance to landlords
altogether, and an apparent determination on the
part of those in possession to hold their land without
paying any rent whatever. The tenants are relying
on the terror inspired by some recent outrages, and
the landlords and their agents are not insensible to
the danger." The same paper goes on to ask,
" Before matters became worse, would it not be
possible for Government to take up Lord Clanri-
carde's very simple and moderate bill of last session ?"
The object of that measure was to simplify and
cheapen the legal forms necessary for a contract
between landlord and tenant. There are still three
months to deal with this measure. No doubt there
will be more time to deal with it next year; "but
who can say what even this year may not bring
forth ?"

PRINCt ARTHUR IN IRELAND.

The Queen's contract with the clerk of the weather
does not appear to extend to her children. Prince
Arthur has been having anything but " Queen's
weather" in Ireland. For him the National Anthem
has had a new but scarcely improved version, though
" Long to rain over us " was at least a truthful des-
cription of facts. To make up for the absence of the
sun there has been an abundance of loyalty, which
is " still the same "in cloud or sunshine. Even
the weather gave the Prince an opportunity
of gratifying the Irish national feeling, for it induced
him to invest in a Waterford overcoat, and to vest
himself in it. The cheers which greeted him at
" Cashel of the Kings" were something startling.
Clearly they did not speak without reason who said
that an important part of the Irish question was
the residence of a royal prince in Ireland.

AGRICULTURAL RETURNS.

It has been asked whether English farmers have
made any use of the agricultural returns which have
been collected by the Government during the last
three years. Several facts have been stated in the
Chambers of Apiculture Journal which indicate the
contrary, especially with regard to the wheat crop.
The wheat crop of the United Kingdom harvested in
1867 was reckoned at one-fifth below the average,
but the growers failed to dispose of their prodtice to
advantage. In the same way we find that this year
farmers have been holding back their wheat, in spite
of the ample rate of importation which brought
from September 1868 to February 1869 two-thirds
of the total quantity we shall want till next havest.
Plainly the farmers have 'not as yet been influenced
by agricultural statistics.

MAORI LEGISLATORS.

Some time ago the process of civilising the aboriginal
New Zealander wts extended to giving him a share in the
legislative busines3 of the colony. Maori representa-
tives were admitted to the General Assembly of New
Zealand. This proceeding seems to have been a little too
far advanced. A dinner was recently given to his Excel-
lency the Governor and Mete Kingi,a Maori member of the
Assembly, made aspeech. After informing the company
that he was the only one who did the Governor honour
when he went to 'Wanganui, he said : "I am teacher of

A SILVER WEDDING.—Twice in their married
existence, here in England where they have be en long
since naturalised, a French man-of-letters and his wife
have signalized their connubial happiness in a rather
remarkable manner. Once, it was by the acceptance
of a flitch of bacon. And, now more recently, it was
by the celebration of their Silver Wedding.
Fourteen years ago the old English custom
of Dunmow was revived at the instance of Harrison
Ainsworth. And, from the hands of that romancist,
the Flitch, after a century, during which that cus-
tom had fallen into disuetude, was received by the
Chevalier de Chatelain "et sa chatelaine." This
was in 1855, after they had been married for some-
thing like 13 years most happily. Now, in 1869, on
the 12th of March, having completed the 25th year
of their married life, the Chevalier de Chatelain and his
wife appear to have assembled their friends around
them at their residence, here in London, viz.—Cas-
telnau Lodge, Warwick-crescent, Westbourne-park-
road, for the purpose of celebrating, by a Fancy
8.11, and with all due ceremonial, their Silver 'Wed-
ding, Les Noces D'Argent, Silberne HuckzAit. A
vivacious account of the entertainment ii given
under the pseudonym of the ghost of Mr. Samuel
Pepys (two hundred years ago of the Admiralty)
in the columns of last Saturday's number of the
Courier de l'Europe. Reading it, one's wish not un-
naturally is, that five-and-twenty years hence, the
Silver may have ripened into a Golden Wtd
Brevet Col. Shaw, of the Royal Artillery, who
was appointed a member of the Ordnance Select
Committee about 12 months ago, with the under-
standing that he would continue in the office for
five years, has been suddenly informed that his ser-
vices as such are no longer required, and he will
have to revert to his military duty ; but as this
officer was placed on the Seconded List of the Royal
Artillery at tho time of the appointment, he will
have to wait for a vacancy to occur before his name
can be-placed upon the Active list of the regiment
again.

TRADES UNIONS.

Mr. Charles Nea,te, the late member for Oxford,
writes to the Star on the subject of Trades Unions,
and founds upon the strike riots in Belgium an
argument in favour of the much-abused English
institutions. In that country there is no other way
of bringing a pressure upon the masters than by
demonstrations.. These, when they are intended to
be emphatic, become riotous and dangerous. The
law is broken, blood is shed. In England
strikes are comparatively peaceful. "It is not
only that the English workman is habitually
more regardful of the law, and more averse
to the shedding of blood than the Bela it
but it is also, in great measure, because the funds of
the union, upon which he can fall back, enable him
to put a peaceful pressure upon his employer. In

restricted, and where no_such organisation of trades

THE GREAT STRIKE IN MGM!.

The entire colliery district around Mons has become a
scene of industrial desolation. No further disorders were
reported up to Sunday, but the strike had so greatly ex-
tended that perfect armies of workmen were assembled in
different parts of the country. The International Society
makes no secret of its share in this industrial quarrel. A
manifesto of violent tone has been circulated in the district
during the last few days ; but no special grievance is com-
plained of. The tyranny of masters and the oppression
of workmen are the topics upon which the committee
enlarge. It appears, however, that the old wages
difficulty was the proximate cause of the strike.
Business has been bad in the Mons district for
some time, and the wages of the workmen have suffered
by the depression. Their discontent has been gradually
rising to a crisis. The International Society has not
failed to profit by their mutinous disposition. Several
days ago the men employed in one of the pits demanded
an increase of wages, and on refusal ceased work. Others
followed, and by Friday the strike was general throughout
the Borinage. The malcontents did not hesitate to intimi-
date their companions. The men at least of one colliery were
obliged to come up and join the rest. Only one conflict
with the soldiers has taken place ; the troops were assailed
at Frameries, and formed square, firing from one side,
and killing two persons. All traces of the first strike at
Seraing have disappeared.

MR. WIIALLEY AND THE IRISH CHURCH.

Mr. Whalley writes again to the Telegraph on the
subject of his vote and conscience. He declares again
that he was not induced to give his support to Mr.
Gladstone on account of any external pressure
brought to bear upon him. It is true that on the
resolutions of last year he did hesitate as to his
vote, because, in so far as those resolutions formed
part of a policy for conciliating Fenians or
satisfying the Romish priesthood, he felt that they
must expose us as a nation to ridicule and to con-
tempt ; but this difficulty he met by publicly dis-
avowing any such motive or object on his own part.
As to the story of his exclaiming, " What will my
Orange friends think of me ? " Mr. Whalley declares
be could never have used them in the sense imputed
to him, as he had before told Orange meetings that
they must not continue to rely upon the Establish-
ment for the spread of Protestantism.

WILLS Al\ D BEQUESTS.

Sir Arthur Clifton, who died a few weeks ago at
08 years of e has left a good round sum-
-140,000 in personalty, besides landed estates.
These go to his nephew, Sir Robert Clifton, the
eccentric Nottingham M.P., who will now be set up
again. Strange to say, Sir Arthur was heir presum-
tive to his nephew's baronetcy, and the nephew was
heir to the uncle's estates. The personalty of Mr.
lleathcote, the sporting man, has been sworn under
10,000 ; that of Mr. George Lawrence, of Mossley-
hill, near Liverpool, under £140,000. Mr. Brown,
formerly a partner in the publishing firm of Long-
mans and Co., has left to the Booksellers' Pro-
vident Institution, £10,000; to the Booksellers' Retreat
(Abbotts Langley), £lO,OOO ; to Christ's Hospital
(where he wits educated), £lO,OOO ; to St. Bartho-
lomew's Hospital, £5,000 ; to the Stationers' Com-
pany's Schools (recently constituted under the Court
of Chancery), ; to his relative, Miss Brown,
£10,000; to his faithful attendant, W. Dignam,
£B,OOO. There is stated to be about 125 legatees
named in the will. The residue he has left between
the grandchildren of his partner, Mr. J. N. Long-
man. Mr. Brown died on the 24th ult., at the ad-
vanced age of 93 ; he had always resided in the City,
and latterly at No. 30, Upper Ludgate-hill. Clearly
literature is not a bad business, whatever Mr. Fronds
may say of it as a profession.

FOREIGN NOTES.

TILE BELGIAN nairmAt DIFFICULTY.

The Incle'pendance Beige publishes another letter detail-
ing the "progress of the negotiations." But as this
progress has of late been only in a backward

direction, the Belgian journal is able to supply very

infm-mnf inn. It is noteworthy, however, that
a misunderstanding and a complete failure of the attempt
to settle the difficulty are now spoken of on all sides. The
Independance Beige does not think that Belgium's refusal to
accede to the conditions imposed by France will lead to
any serious consequence ; but the Etoile Beige is very
much alarmed, and is evidently preparing for more
Parisian bullying.

TRADE IN SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE.

The iron trade of South Staffordshire, though still,
depressed, exhibits a slight improvement. At the
last market held at Birmingham a more hopeful
feeling prevailed among manufacturers. The iron-
masters are anticipating large orders from the north
of Europe. General trade is dull, and numbers are
out of employment, but the operatives on short time
seem willing to meet the views of the masters.
Among the hardware trade of Birmingham there is
little activity, and trade is dull in every department.
The foreign export trade is somewhat more
buoyant.

IPerhaps the most melancholy columns of a news-
' paper arc those which, from time to time, record the
proceedings at a Coroner's inquest. In a collected.
form these reports would far surpass the most sensa-
tional chapters of the most extravagant romance,
and might afford another illustration of the every-
day adage that Truth is stranger than Fiction. One
day we read the terrible revelation of some death from
starvation in the very midst of the riches and luxuries
of the metropolis, and on another occasion
we shudder over the details of the suicide of some
poor wretch eager to escape from his miseries—" any-
where, anywhere,. out of the world !" A few days
