TUE RITUAL JUDGMENT.

The Times adds another to its numerous leaders on
the Ritual judgment. The object of the article is to
shew that the judgment has been entirely mistuider-
stood so far as it is supposed to favour the defendants.
The main source of comfort to the Ritualists—that
the celebrant is bound to stand before the Lord's
table—the Times believes to be no comfort at all.
The judgment simply decided as to whether the
celebrant should stand or kneel, and did not
deeide his position when standing. The effects
of this judgment will be, according to the
Tunes, that the Prayer for the Church Militant and
the whole of the notice of celebration must be read,
while the Gloria before the Gospel must be omitted,
the singing of hymns in the middle of the Communion
Service and the chanting of the sentences of the
Offertory must be discontinued. On the other hand,
the introduction of hymns before the evening ser-
mon, the evening sermon itself, the organ volunta-
ries, and the collects are wholly untouched by the
judgment. The rubric must, indeed, be literally
observed, but the rubric affects only the order of
common prayer, and when the communion service is
not used, the sermon and its accessories form an
additional service, commencing when the common
prayer is finished, and having no necessary connec-
tion with it. As long as the order of prayer is in
progress, it may not be varied; when it is completed,
any service of preaching not in itself unlawful may
be undertaken. With regard to vestments, also, the
Times believes that the Ritualists are wrong. They
argue that as the Privy Council condemned lighted
candles because these did not satisfy an indispensable
condition of ornaments, the Council is bound to
accept the vestments because they do satisfy that con-
dition. To this the Times replies : "It need scarcely
be pointed out that a condition may be indispensable
without being sufficient. No church ornament can
be lawful which was not prescribed by the Prayer
Book. of 2nd and 3rd Edward VI., but it cannot be
concluded that every ornament is lawful which was so
prescribed. In effect, no one but the most exag-
gerated Ritualists doubts that the vestments referred
to in the Rubrics of King Edward's first Prayer
Book were disallowed by the later statute of
the same reign, the statute of Elizabeth as mo-
dified by the advertisements, and the canons, and
have never been revived. The point, of course,
was never raised in the recent contention, but if
It ever comes before the Judicial Committee the
Ritualist clergymen will find that their interpreta-
tion of the law of ornaments is as unsound as their
speculations on the law of ceremonies." In conclu-
sion, the Times contends that the judgment " esta-
blishes the Prayer Book as the single and sufficient
guide of the common devotions of the members of
the English Church. It disallows all addition to or
diminution of its plain directions. It reaffirms the
constitutional status of the English Church as an
organisation endowed and established by the Legis-
lature of the English people."

GOVERNMENT IN FRANCE:

The Paris papers are republishing a remarkable letter
Mt to the Message). de Toulouse by Baron S4gnier, the
Procureur-Imperial at Toulouse. Baron S6gnier, has
resigned his office, because he has acted with too
much moderation in the press trial, and has
been bullied for it. In a letter he informs the Procureur.
General of his resignation. He makes the
following comments upon it :—" The Garde des
Sceaux thinks he cannot tolerate any longer my tepid
speeches in press matters. Now, to address the court
under the surveillance of a secret police, and to press for
judgments dictated beforehand in Paris by the Minister
of Justice, are two things which do not suit me,:a.nd I must
beg you to transmit my resignation to the Garde des
Sceaux. There is nothing wilful in this resignation, it is
imposed upon me by the unjust and bitter reproaches
which have been heaped upon me for some time past on
account of my conduct in press affairs. I am disgraced
for having desired to serve the Emperor with that
moderation and dignity which was recommended by the
Garde des Sceaux himself in his circular of June 4, 1868."
This epistle, forming part of a letter to the editor of the
Message). de Toulouse, has been published, and has created
great sensation in France. Baron SJgnier was not suffi-
ciently energetic in the recent press trials. He was urged
by the Minister of Justice to shew more zeal, and,
disapproving of these Baudin prosecutions altogether,
he ultimately resigned. He thus abandons his professional
career, and his hope of advancement. As the Paris
journals remark, his conscience must have been sorely
tried before he took such a step. The Temps considers
this matter of the greatest importance. There is no doubt
that it will act unfavourably against the Government.
When officials desire to be mild, and are compelled to
resign because they are asked to be severe, the public can
draw but one conclusion—that France is governed by
police, and that it is likely to remain so under the Empire.

THE EXTRAORDINARY CONFESSION OF
London, England, 1869-01-08

AUSTRIA.

The Indipendance zelge affirms that the war party 1.
very powerful at Vienna, but very weak in Hungary.
Count Andrassy, chief of the Hungarian Cabinet, is deci•
sively against war, and in this policy he is supported by
the great majority of the people. His inflexible attitude
has had the effect of frustrating the scheme of Count
Beust, who was favourable to joint action with France.
The Chancellor was obliged recently to telegraph to Paris
that the pacific policy of the Hungarian Ministry ren.
dered impossible any active interference in the Eastern
question.

FOREIGN. NOTE%

CONMEENCE.

Accorhing to Paris sainciunaements the rumoured desire
tSf the Porte to postpone the meeting of the Conference
will not result in any delay. The Ambassadors at Parif
will meet on Saturday. It appears that the Turkish repre.
sentative eaniot recoive his written instructions by that
time, bit this, say the Pats journals. will not be deemed
a sufficient reason for postponement. It has been
arranged that inspiration by telegraph shall suffice.

The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Standard sap
that the relations between Russia and Prussia are of thi
most intimate kind. During the last few days a visit of
Count Bismarck to Russia, in order to have a personal in.
terview with Prince Gortschakoff, was seriously considered.
Matters had proceeded so far that an hotel had been pre.
pared for the. Prussian Minister. Second thoughts have,
however, prevailed, and the fear of exciting suspicion hat
caused the visit to be deferred.

COINAGE OF THE UNITED STATES.

Dr. Linderman, the director of the Mint, reports
the operations of that institution for the fiscal year
ending the 30th of June last. The total deposits
of gold and silver, less re-deposits, were $24,591,325.
The value of the coinage, including nickel-copper
and bronze, was $27,447,606 ; pieces struck,
49,735,810. Operations were suspended for three
months for repairs, reducing the time of coinage for
the lower coins to nine months. The Mint is re-
ported in the most efficient condition, and it
is proved by experience that coinage can be
executed at the principal Mint at less ex-
pense than in any other part of the country.
As the means of safe transportation have lately in-
creased, there is no reason for reviving coinage ope-
rations at either of the three branch Mints formerly
in operation in the Southern States, and he there-
fore recommends that those establishments be dis-
posed of. The machinery for the new branch Mint
in Nevada will be put up during the present winter,
and a new building is to be erected at San Francisco
on a scale commensurate with the bullion interests
of that region. This branch and the Mint at Phila-
delphia the Director thinks sufficient for the prompt
execution of the coinage of the country. Ho
recommends the repeal of the Act of Con-
gress which conflicts with contracts for separat-
ing and refining bullion with outside parties,
and that they be authorized whenever they benefit
the public interest, the saving thereby being about
3 cents per ounce. An important recommendation
is the renewal made in the last annual report of
the suggestion providing for the reduction and re-
demption of inferior coins, by creating a fund out
of the profits of such coinage, and making it the
duty of the Secretary of the Treasury to receive any
offered in specified amounts, and to pay for them
out of the fund created. from the profits. The net
profits from the minor coinage and paid into the
Treasury are large, amounting during the last fiscal
year to $1,300,000. The discontinuance of the
coinage of bronze. two cent pieces is recommended.
Copper-nickel cents to the amount of $260,482 was
purchased during the last fiscal year, and, being
paid for in three and five cent nickel coins,
netted a small profit to the United States, while
reducing the redundancy of cent coins. The pro-
priety and policy of charging for the coinage of
bullion is discussed, the conclusion being a recom-
mendation to lower the present charge of half per
cent. to one-quarter per cent. The tendency of
this change would be to turn gold bars into coin,
and so prepare for a gold currency. The change
in the small silver coins of France and Germany le,
explained, the international coinage question dis-
cussed, and interesting information given of the
attempt of the Chinese to furnish a silver cur'
rency, in which they followed the American co'
tesimal notation, issuing pieces of the denomination
of ten, five, and one. The report is valuable, being
full of statistical information, and interesting and
important matter.

&c. But Grattan was undoubtedly a-great Irishman:z-
one who, if the figure is not too stale, lives "in the hearts
of the peoplf" Then why not give him a statue ? At
the '• Mayor's meeting," held at Dublin on Tuesday, ,
all creeds and parties were represented. Mr. Pim,M.P.,
Ur. J. Norwood,. J.P., Professor Webb, F.T.C.D.,
Alderman Manning, J.P., Hon. Judge Little, Dr.
O'Leary,Alderman Campbell, Dr. Shaw, F.T.C.D., the
Rev. Dr. Spratt, and Mr. L. Waldron were speakers.
Resolutions were adopted to the effect that the erec-
tion of a public statue to Grattan was "a sacred
obligation of duty, love, and gratitude;" that
assured of the hearty approbation of Irishmen of all
classes, they entered on the work, and that a com-
mittee and treasurer, whose names are published,
should be appointed to carry out the intention of the
meeting.

STEEL PROCESSES.

Mr. Bessemer invented a cheap P;ocess for making
steel which has superseded old methods, and
has made a name and a fortune for him. Mr.
Heaton, trying for the same result, has discovered
another process. The steels produced, however,
are in some respects dissimilar. Mr. Bessemer likes
his own child best. Mr. Heaton considers his
steel greatly superior to Mr. Bessemer's. The
two inventors have been disputing finely in
the Times for the last fortnight. It puzzles
a " non-professional" to know what it is all
about. But words have run high, and the passions
of the disputants have evidently been excited. They
have called in professional evidence. Dr. Percy
thinks the quantity of phosphorus in Heaton 's
steel such as to injure it. Professor Miller, assayer
to the Royal Mint; however, has recorded a totally
contrary opinion. And so the professional evidence
falls to the ground. The ultimate decision must be
left to the steel-buying public.

ONTUARY.

The deaths of three naval men are recorded. Com-
mander Richard Lock Connolly, well known to Bath
men, died on that city on the 4th, in his 84th year,
being ofre of the few survivors of the bstle of the
Nile. Captain John Sibbald, R.N. who has just
died at 59 years of age, was one of Sir John Ross's
companions in his Antartic expedition. Admiral
Charles Warde, whose death, at 83 yeiift of age, is
announced, was a Knight of Hanover, but was no;, on
the active list of the royal navy.

DE GUSTIDUS NON DISPUTANDUM.
The Daily Netts is conducting a genekal assault on
tne evil tendencies of this generation. And really
one can hardly account for the tastes which our con-
temporary attacks. There is, first, the rage for
expensive desserts. Seasonable fruit is " common,"
and is therefore despised. Fruits out of season are
sought after. Peas "a penny a piece"are the"luxuries"
which grace the table of the would-be-thought rich.
Pears are offered by the " high " fruiterers a couple
of guineas apiece. Flowers, too, are produced in
winter whose proper time is the end of summer.
The money spent during the festive season
in ball-room flowers alone would feed the
poor of the East-end for a long time. And
it is remarked that " people of quality " do not
thus ostentatiously shew their wealth. The " upstart"
—the officers of some bubble company who wish to
give the impression that they are " good for any
amount "—thus " shew off." And perhaps it is a
good piece of advice to a shareholder to " sell out"
directly he sees anything of the kind in the officers
of any concern in which he is interested.
But while this cannot be defended, a second leader
of our contemporary notices a positively degrading,
and, unfortunately, increasing " taste." A love for
almost completely undressed young ladies seems to
actuate the majority of theatre goers. The old
pantomime its fun, frolic, childishness, and
imbecility has given place to a "spectacu-
lar burlesque." The " spectacles" which one
sees are made up to a great extent by
whirling fairies ; and everyone knows what that
means. Our publications, too, are beginning to lean
to the same side. A Christmas number, which is
reported to have sold over 150,000 copies, consists of
a series of pictures, exclusively, or all but
exclusively, of young girls, got up in diffe-
rent costumes, and represented as occupied
in different amusements, most of them designed
to bring out into bold relief those of their physical
charms which are supposed to render them super-
ficially attractive to the masculine sex. " Girls,
girls, girls (exclaims the Daily News)—impudent,
frisky, fast, vulgar, but always rendered so as to be
seductive to the masculine gaze—such are the attrac-
tions, the amusements, the entertainments of the
aze."
London, England, 1869-01-08

GOVERNMENT IN FRANCA

The Paris papers are republishing a remarkable letter
ant to the Message). de Toulouse by Baron S6gnier, the
Procureur-Imperial at Toulouse. Baron SSgnier, has
resigned his office, because ho has acted with too
much moderation in the press trial, and has
been bullied for it. In a letter he informs the Procureur•
General of his resignation. He makes the
following comments upon it :—" The Garde des
Sceaux thinks he cannot tolerate any longer my tepid
speeches in press matters. Now, to address the court
under the surveillance of a secret police, and to press for
judgments dictated beforehand in Paris by th 6 Minister
of Justice, are two things which do not suit me,:and I must
beg you to transmit my resignation to the Garde des
Sceaux. There is nothing wilful in this resignation, it is
imposed upon me by the unjust and bitter reproaches
which have been heaped upon me for some time past on
account of my conduct in press affairs. I am disgraced
for having desired to serve the Emperor with that
moderation and dignity which was recommended by the
Garde des Sceaux himself in his circular of June 4, 1868."
This epistle, forming part of a letter to the editor of the
Message). de Toulouse, has been published, and has created
great sensation in France. Baron St'gnier was not suffi•
ciently energetic in the recent press trials. He was urged
by the Minister of Justice to skew more zeal, and,
disapproving of these Bandin prosecutions altogether,
he ultimately resigned. He thus abandons his professional
career, and his hope of advancement. As the Paris
journals remark, his conscience must have been sorely
tried before he took such a step. The Tenzps considers
this matter of the greatest importance. There is no doubt
that it will act unfavourably against the Government.
When officials desire to be mild, and are compelled to
resign because they are asked to be severe, the public can
draw but one conclusion—that France is governed by
police, and that it is likely to remain so under the Empire.

ITALY.

rue tax upon the corn brought to the flour-mills for
grinding is one of several expedients by which it was hoped
to clear off the deficit and raise the Italian revenue to an
equality with the expenditure. Several new taxes were
voted last spring with the view of increasing the revenue
in 1869 by about four millions and a half sterling, and the
expenditure was cut down to the extent of £BOO,OOO.
These sums, added to £2,800,000 raised by the sale of
the Church property, will suffice to bring Italian finances
into something like order. And in the case of most of the
new taxes—stamps and registration does, and a percentage
upon charges for admission at the theatres—no difficulty
has been experienced, but the detested grinding tax has
given rise to serious opposition. It imposes a duty of about
is. Bd. upon every 2201 b. of wheat, and half that amount on
all other kinds of grain. The bread of au average poor
family is thus taxed to the extent of about thirteen shit.
lings yearly, and in a country where incomes are very small,
and destitution, especially in the Island of Sardinia, very
common, this burden is by no means light. Itis not surpris-
ing that in some places the mills have been closed, or that
n other districts open resistance has been shewn. Nothing
nut the greatest necessity could justify such an impost.
It is fair to add that the necessity is very great, and the
Government strives to make the tax fall as lightly as pos.
Bible ; but it is a detestable measure at the best.

IVIR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.
