THE LAW OF PRIMOGENITURE.

Sir George Bowyer once more raises his voice
against the abolition of the law of primogeniture.
His great arguments against the division of the land
are that it would render the sale of land very costly,
and that it would put a stop to mortgages. To prove
his first assertion he mentions a case in which a
friend of his purchased a piece of gavelkind land
for £l,OOO. To establish the title it was necessary to
trace out twenty-one persons. The cost of doing
this was £7O-7 per cent. of the value of the land—or
two years' rental. As to the second case, suppose a
mortgagor to die and to leave his land among twelve
children, how would the mortgagee like to collect his
rent from twelve persons ? Sir George adds that
a fundholder may tie up millions of Consols if ho
likes. Why should not a landowner, then, be per-
mitted to tie up his land ?
TITS WM.; 1N I'ARAGUAY.

The fluctuating tide of war on the La Plata seems to
have turned for the present in favour of the defenders.
The Allies have been defeated, and operations have been
suspended in order that the Brazilians may raise more
troops, and not, as was at first alleged, for the purpose of
executing a difficult flank movement. More important
still, the Argentine Republic, which was long ago tired of
the war, is now disposed to abandon it altogether. The lead-
ing journal of Buenos Ayres says that the Republic will
send no further troops to the scene of operations ; Brazil
must rely upon its own resources for the future. The
Buenos Ayres Standard considers the termination of the
war as remote as ever; the Paraguayan harvest is good,
and the country far from exhausted. It is not a little
significant that since the capture of Humalta no news of
any importance has come from Brazil. The little intelli-
gence that has been received is mostly from Paraguayan
sources.

Lopez has issued a proclamation to the Paraguayan
army and nation. It is noteworthy chiefly because it
seems to confirm the story that one of the Ministers
attempted to negotiate peace, without the knowledge of his
associates, and was punished by death. The proclama-
tion, too, in more than one place refers to the Paraguayan
women who have taken up arms in defence of their
country.

THE INBTJERECTION IN CUBA

Although vic'orions in the recent battle, the Cuban
insurgents sustained a grievous loss by the death of the
Marquis de Santa Lucia, their chief general. He was
wounded on the field, and died the next day. Santa
Lucia was one of the three who first organised the revolt
which so seriously threatens to deprive Spain of her greatest
possession. He was the head of one of the leading Cuban
families, 40 years of age, of great power, and greater in•
fluence. He is described as being for a long time an
ardent worker in the cause of Cuban independence and
the freedom of the slave. His loss is ill compensated by
the gain of a battle.
The Independance Berge states that the insurgents
receive supplies of arms and munitions from the United
States. Many Americans and some English so'diers from
Jamaica are fighting for the Creoles. It would, however,
be erroneous to conc'ude that the insurrection has been
fomented with the view of hoisting the stars and stripes in
Cuba.

SPAIN.

The victory of the Republicans at Cadiz completes the
triumph of the party at the municipal elections. There
can be no doubt that the advantage thus gained is a sub-
stantial one. The municipal authorities will necessarily
possess much power to influence the more important
elections to the Cortes, which commence on the 13th, and
it is hardly to be expected that they will not avail them-
selves of this privilege. The ayuntamicntos will do much
to counterbalance the influence of the central Government.
Is is true that the majority of those electors who abstained
from voting were Monarchists, whilst the Republicans
brought up every available man. But this proves only
that the Monarchists have no organisation and no great
interest in the struggle, whilst the Republicans give
evidence of both. All eye-witnesses are agreed upon
this point : the Republicans are a compact body, with
a purpose ; their opponents are divided, and wanting in
the first requisite of a party—a settled policy.
It is at present arranged that the Cortes ahall meet
exactly a month after the commencement of the elections.
A most formidable array of work awaits the deputies.
They must verify the writs, which will occupy some clays;
discuss the acts of the Provisional Government, many of
which will certainly excite fierce debate ; settle the form of
government, a fundamental question which cannot fail to
give rise to a most obstinate struggle ; and then,
if the Monarchists win, determine who shall reign. This
will not bring the national assembly through its difficul-
ties. It will have the new Constitution to settle, for it
must not be forgotten that universal suffrage has been
ordained by an edict, not by a law ; and the separation of
Church and State, the abolition of slavery, the liberty of
the press, &c., will all demand attention sooner or later.
Glancing over the list, the correspondent of the Star con-
fidently anticipates a victory for the Republicans through
the dissensions of their adversaries.

GERMANY.

The last convent in the Rhenish provinces of Prussia
has j ust been suppressed. This completes a work of extermi-
nation which was commenced as far back as 1834, when
all the convents in the Rhine provinces were ordered to be
closed, the rest of Prussia being already cleared of them.
Three Franciscan houses were allowed to remain, because
they possessed no property with which to compensate the
Government for the pensions it was obliged to accord the
expelled monks. It was therefore arranged that these
three should not be closed until their inmates died off.
This process was effectual in the case of two, but the one
at Neustadt preserved a remarkable vitality. It has been
.discovered that it recruited its members secretly, and sum-
mary extinction has been the penalty.
The Paris Mon iteur notes that the Saxon Landwenr,
together with the soldiers of the reserve, are now going
through a series of manoeuvres which will last until the
end of February. This is the first instance on record, says
the Moniteur, of au army being thus exercised in the
middle of winter during peace.
The Munich Court of Appeal has condemned a priest to
two months' imprisonment for speaking in insulting terms
of the chief Bavarian Minister. The trial was rather a
lively affair. An innkeeper, who was the chief witness,
deposed that the accused, with about thirty other priests,
dined at his house ; that the offence was committed during
the dinner ; and that conveyances were required to enable
the austere fathers to :each their domicile

ELECTION NEWS.

There will be a severe contest in Renfrewshire.
In all probability the Conservatives will bring for-
ward Sir Michael Shaw Stewart, their former repre•
sentative, who lost his seat in 1805. The Liberals
will probably nominate Colonel Mure, of Cald-
well, a son of the late Colonel Mure, the his-
torian of Greece. The South Derbyshire election
takes place next week. The first of the election
petition trials opens at Windsor on Tuesday next;
Mr. Justice Willes will preside. Mr. Baron Martin

THAMES.

CHARGE OF WILFUL MURDER.—Adelaide Freedman, the
wife of a man who has been separated from her five years,
and who has been pursuing his fortune in Peru, was
brought up on remand charged with the wilful murder of
her infant, aged one month, and afterwards attempting
to commit suicide.

The prisoner is very ill, and it was requested by the
gaoler, Mr. Roche, that her commitment on remand ought
to be made out immediately, and that she should be at
once sent back to Clerkenwell prison, where she has been
confined a week.

It was stated by Police-sergeant Bride; chief of the
detectives of the K division, that Dr. Letheby had not
completed his analysis of the deceased child's stomach and
viscera which had been forwarded to him. Thu inquest
on the body of the child would not hi resumed for another
week.

She was then led out of the d .ek in a falut:ng condi-
tion, and placed before a good tiro in the gaoler's rooni
until she revive,', and was then sent away in a cab to
Cer:;en well Prison.

It appears that the prisoner expected her husband to
arrive in England in a few weelcz, and being fearful that
he would discover her ialidelity, of whist shJ had le mn
guilty in his atsouce, determined to ma':e a•,vay with the
child by administering to it salts of lemon, and then in a
fit of remorse took some i f the a tan acid herself, whit a
view of destroying herself, and failed. She was reniov d
to the London Hospital, where sLe remained under medi-
cal treatment until she was taken into custody by Bridal
at the Hospital. Her purchase of the salts of lemon and
her administratim of it to the infant has been fully
proved.

THE THAMES v. THE TYNE.

The arrangements for the two four-oared races between
the representatives of the Thames and the Tyne have
been in no way interfered with by any unexpectedobstacle,
and the sth of next month will see the first match pulled
off. The slight injury to his thumb experienced by
Kelley, of the Thames crew, has almost disap-
peared, and he and his colleagues are appa-
rently in excellent health. A new boat, built by
Messenger, is to be used by them for the first time on
Saturday. The Northern men are quite ready for the
strife, and indeed are not behindhand in expressing confi-
dence as to the result. They are expected in London the
middle of next week.

THE STORM IN AMERICA.

The British American provinces did not escape the great
storm which raged over the States at the beginning of
October. New Brunwick suffered severely, the bridges
throughout the country being swept away, the marshes
completely covered, and thousands of sheep and cattle
drowned. The tidal wave has caused great destruc-
tion on the Bay of Fundy and around St. John.
Ships, houses, barns, and cattle were swept away, and an
immense amount of property lost. The bridges of the
European and North American Railway were destroyed.
In the small parish of Saekville, New Brunswick, the
damage is estimated at $1,000,000. The storm was
predicted last December by Lieutenant Saxby, R.N., and the
English papers have lately been calling attention to the
warning. In Montreal no mails from Now York, Albany,
or Boston were received for many days, owing to the
freshet. In several of the Eastern States of the Union the
trains could not run for five or six days, owing to the sub-
merging of the lines.

PAIN IiESS and PRACTICAL DENTISTRY,
by Mr. B. L. MOSE LY, the Dentist by special appoint-
ment, 312, REGENT-STREET, exactly opposite the Royal
Polytechnic. Established 1820. This, the most perfected
system of painless dentistry, originated and invented by
Mr. B. L. Mosely, is r- commended by the Hospitals and
adopted by the profession as one of the greatest improve-
ments of the age for the alleviation of pain and restoration
of the natural functions, can solely be obtained in such
perfected success (the result of forty years' practical ex-
perience) at his only residouce, 3t2, Regent-street. The
superlative excellence of this system is perfect immunity,
from pain, no operations, stumps, and decayed teeth ren-
dered useful, loose teeth and tender gums protected.
Qualitiee : These teeth never change colour or decay—in
fit unerring—ease and con:fort unsurpassed—detection
impossible-the facial anatomy faithfully studied —and
youthful appearance restored—mastication and articulation
aranteed. The " Times" of March 6 says : —"So good
an imitation becomes the next best thing to the original."
Teeth from 55.; sets. 5 to 30 guineas. Consultation
free.—Ouly address, 312, Regent-sere: t, exactly facing the

AN ENGLISHMAN IN ITALY.

Some few months ago there was a small Republican
outbreak in Italy. Who originated this attempt at
civil war, or by what means its promoters persuaded
themselves that they had a chance of su:cess, a won-
dering world will probably never know. Certain it is
that at divers places in the peninsula, but more espe-
cially at Milan, a fevir Republicans raised a commo-
tion in the streets
the immediate result of which was
to lodge the majority of the patriots in gaol. Un-
fortunately, an Englishman, a young man named
Nathan, was amongst the captured. He
has been in prison since last April.
Various representations have been made in
the House of Commons, and the Foreign Office
has applied to the Italian Government, but
nothing has come of it. Mr. P. A. Taylor, 111. P., has
written a letter to the Under Secretary of Foreign
Affairs, urging the department to adopt effective and
immediate measures for Mr. Nathan's release. It
seems clear that something ought to be done. The
friends of Mr. Nathan allege brat he is innocent, that
the Italian authorities ware mistaken as to the proof
of his complicity in the republican fiasco • but, how-
ever that may be, it is a fact that Mr. Nathan has
been imprisoned since last April without being brought
to trial, and the Italian Government seems to have
no sufficient reply to this complaint.
London, England, 1869-10-21

THE GAME LAWS.

The case of Mr. Dickons is not a happy illustration
of the working of those statutes which country
gentlemen consider the safeguard of British liberty,
the anchor of the British Empire. Mr. Dickons was
a tenant farmer on land belonging to the Duke of
Portland. This magnate conferred on half a dozen
individuals calling themselves the Mansfield Game
Association the right of shooting over Mr.
Dickons's farm. The farmer and the association soon
disagreed on the subject, and the latter conveyed such
representations to the Duke of Portland as procured
Dickons's eviction from his holding. The farmer
made those representations the subject of an action
for libel, and obtained through a Leeds jury hand-
some damages against the association. 'This body,
however, is not satisfied. It has plenty of money,
and it intends to appeal against the verdict. But the
public will not look on callously at this proceeding.
Whatever may be the merits of the difference between
Mr. Dickons and the association, there is something
in the idea of a farmer being turned out of his holding
for the sake of a few miserable pheasants and part-
ridges which is calculated to rouse indignation, and it
is accordingly proposed to give Mr. Dickons a hand-
some sum, to be raised by subscription, " as a testi-
monial for his gallant attempt to protect the British
farmers from the petty tyranny brought to bear upon
them by individuals whose interests are inimical to
their own." The farmer has shown a vigour and in-
dependence which merits respect.
London, England, 1869-10-21

cnuncu WORK.

The Bishop of Ely has commenced his second
visitation by an earnest appeal to the clergy of his
diocese to promote the great work of union. The
right rev. prelate looks forward to the time when the
Continental Churches and the Dissenters may all be
brought tog-ether by the Church of England, which
holds the middle place between them. But before
this can be effected the Church of England must be
at one with itself. Why should Churchmen unite in
unions and associations for carrying on war against
each other instead of for promoting the work of
God P Why should mission societies be made scenes
of conflict P—an allusion to the S. P. C. K. affair.
For all these things the Church must wait, doubtless ;
but whilst it waited it could labour :
"There is a great work field among our poor who are
sadly alienated, not only from the Church, but from all
religion. We must throw ourselves fully and boldly
among them—open our churches to them, adapt our
sermons and services to them. Intemperance is a monster
evil with them ; and our disunion puzzles, distracts, and
so alienates them altogether. With regard to Dissenters,
we must not sacrifice truth, we should do all we can to
win them, acknowledging our own faults rather than
pressing theirs."

THE BEST REMEDY FOR INDIGESTION.

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
?Ailed the " Natural Strengthener of the human Stomach.'
"Norton's Pills" act es a powerful tonic and gentle ape-
rient; are mild in their operation, safe under any cir-
,mmstances, and thousands of persons can now bear testi-
mony to the benefits to be derived from their use, as they
have been a never-failing Family Friend for upwards of
20 years.
Sold in bottles at ls. 11d., 2E. 91, and 11s. each, in
every town in the kingdom.
CAUTION.
Be sure to ask for "NORTON'S PILLS," and do not
be persuaded to purchase any of the various imitations
which have sprung up in consequence of the success of
Norton's Camomile Pills."

ENGLISH TENANT HIGHT.

The cry of tenant right for Ireland has quite over-
powered any weak demand there might be for tenant
right for England. Yet amid the general shouts con-
cerning the sister country, a voice makes itself heard
protesting against the tyranny of a Dean
and Chapter. The "victim " tells us in the
Times' largest type that he is the lessee of a
small Church property. The land has been in pos-
session of his family since 1800. They held and he
holds by lease for twenty-one years, renewable every
seven years. The original lease was costly from
special circumstances ; and the holders have always
considered that it was renewable for ever. The
" victim " has netted from the property £3OO a
year, of which about £llO has gone in renewing. For
this £llO he was able to put into his pocket £lOO a
year. But now the wisdom of his ancestors is brought
to nought, for the Dean and Chapter refuse to renew
again. By their refusal he is likely to lose £lOO a
year ; for he cannot now with the same money buy
the same income. lie contends, therefore, that the
ecclesiastical body has no right to evict him at the
end of the thirteen years, and urges his right to com-
pensation. It was understood that the lease was
"renewable for ever ;" the Chapter themselves have
so regarded it hitherto. The refusal to renew is
(according to the Times' correspondent) a. "moral
breach of contract,"
London, England, 1869-10-21

EMIGRATION TO AUSTRALIA.

The Agent-General for the colony of Victoria
expects shortly to receive further regulations from the
Colonial Government, under which the assistance
given to emigration by Lie Government will be largely
extended. The rules at present in force provide for
the assistance of persons nominated by their friends in
the colony, who, upon payment of a small sum there,
may obtain passage warrants in favour of their nomi-
nees here, and they enable the Agent-General to grant
free passages to single women fit for domestic service.
In this way nearly 400 people are sent out to Mel-
bourne every month. But this supply is not nearly
sufficient. The great distance between England and
Australia gives Canada and the United States an
advantage in the competition for popular favour. Thq
Australian Government must offer exceptionall.,, good
terms if they would restore the balance.
