THE GRACE OF OLD AGE.

Old age is now a requirement in a clergyman.
Witness an advertisement in the Times :—" The
trustees of a small country living are prepared to
appoint a rector. He must not to under 75, with
unexceptionable references. Gros income about
£3OO a year; population, 150. Good house and
garden. Church recently restored. Apply to
Clericus, ke." For every wrong, say the lawyers,
there is a remedy. Is there no wrong done to the
parishioners to whom the gentleman over 70 is to
administer the comforts of religion ? These scandals,
much more than those to which the attention of the
public is being directed by rival associations, are
afflicting the Church.

ANOTHER LINE TO BRIGHTON.

The engineers will have a third line to Brighton
if they can; they want only the means. Another
line is now proposed. Mr. James Samuel, M.1.C.E.,
has issued his plans for a competitor to the present
company. He advocates frequent light trains and
improved carriages, and thus hopes to reduce the
working expenses. He proposes to start from the
London, Chatham, and Dover Railway at Penge
station, and follow the course of the line for which
an Act was obtained in 1800 by the Chatham and
Dover and South-Eastern Companies (but since aban-
doned) for a distance of about twelve miles to theend
of the Tatsfield Tunnel. Thence he would proceed to
Oxstead, crossing the mainline of the South-Eastern
Railway a little beyond Godstone station. He would
then cross the East Grinstead line about two miles
to the west of East Grinstead, thence by West
Heathley in a nearly direct line to the west corner
of Chailey Common, crossing the Keymer Branch
Railway near Chiltington, and the Lewes line near
Falmer, running nearly parallel with the latter, and
terminating close to the Grand Parade of the North
Steyne at Brighton. The length from Penge to
Brighton is 45miles, from Ludgate-hill to Brighton
52,4 miles, and from Victoria Station to Brighton 52A
miles.

THE BELGIAN RAILWAY DIFFICULTY.

The Constitutionnel says that by the agreement arrived
at in the matter of the railway difficulty between Belgium
and France, a direct service of trains is definitely eata•
blished between Anvers and Bale, and a common
tariff of fares has been prescribed for all the railway
companies concerned. The commission has like-
wise arranged a financial settlement between the
East of France Company and the Belgian and Dutch
owners of the lines over which the French trains will run.
The Constitutionnel adds that this agreement has not been
embodied in a convention ; but merely takes the form of a
minute; laying down general conditions on the basis of
which the companies themselves will be enabled to
establish an international system of traffic.

AGRICULTURAL PROSPECTS.

The genial weather is producing the genial farmer.
Gloomy and rather crusty a little while back, when
the rain threatened to destroy his hay and to spoil
his wheat, he is now more hopeful, and his organs
in the press tell us that the period of anxiety has not
been so very damaging after all. The Chamber of
Agriculture Journal, with regard to wheat, says that
" the blooming time has been passed under favourable
conditions," and though our contemporary is pre-
pared for great variations in quality and
quantity, and does not speak very decidedly,
it is confident that hot weather will pro-
duce an improved crop. The Mark Lane
Express is hardly so sanguine. The wheat bloomed,
the _Express fears, at a most ungenial time, and now
there are indications of rust on the ear. " The
barley, too, is threatened, and looks bad ; and so do
some species of oats." The South-West, however,
seems to be: free from the causes of despondency
which are noticed elsewhere. The report to the
Mark Lane Express from Exeter] contains the
passage, " Farmers say their wheats promise well,
and so do beans, peas, and oats."

PRIZE-FIGHTING IN AMERICA.

• Judging by the comments in the American papers on
the recent prize-fight, our cousins are not proud of the
noble sport which they have inherited from us.. Prize-
fighting has been driven out of England, and has taken.
refuge in the United States ; but the Americans unhesi
tatingly declare that they will have none of it. The
sport lost its " ancient nobleness " here ; but it has.
sunk to a lower level on the other side of. tiff
Atlantic. The crowds which muster at, these
reunions consist of the lowest of the low ; the, fighting
itself is mere scrambling and throttling, not boxing. It.
is alleged by some that the referee between M'Coole andl
Allen was bribed to give his decision in favour of the
latter. The New York Herald remarks that the only-
remaining question to be settled in connection with these,
pugilistic gentry is to estimate the cost of accommodating:
them in gaol.

" ALCOHOLISM."

The Philadelphia Public Ledger notes that habletar
drinking is largely on the increase in the United States.
What it calls " chronic alcoholism " is now becoming a -
common cause of the removal of officers from the army..
In the ordinary walks of life, too, this most deadly of
epidemics is spreading alarmingly. The high price of„
genuine spirits having introduced inferior whiskies and
brandies, the fatal effects of the morbid taste for liquors
are more and more to be observed.

A NEW CLUB.

The Liberal party contemplate following the
example of the Conservative, and forming a Junior
Reform Club, which will bear the same relation to
the Reform that the Junior Carlton does to the
Carlton. It remains to be seen if the Liberals will
vie with the Conservatives in the size and splendour
of their new habitation.

THE PROSECUTION OF THE DIRECTORS OF OVEREND.

GURNEY, AND CO.

After passing through many stages of difficulty,
the prosecution of the directors of Overend, Gurney,
and Co. is postponed for the present, and with the
prospect of being properly conducted to its issue in
November. First decried as needless and vexatious,
the case was brought before the magistrates, and the
defendants were committed for trial. Subsequently
the cause was removed into the Court of Queen's Bench,
and circumstances became so complicated that the
action seemed destined to fall to the ground. It has,
however, surmounted these difficulties in the Queen's
Bench, and yesterday the Attorney-General applied
for a postponement of the case, stating to the court
that he " believed he was about to be instructed to
prosecute." Sir John Coleridge, on the part of the
defendants, though dwelling on the cruelty of a post-
ponement, did not press his opposition to it; and the
Lord Chief Justice granted the application.

AN IRISH LIBEL CASE.

An interesting and important action for libel has just
been concluded in the Court of Exchequer of Dublin,
before Mr. Baron Fitzgerald and a special jury. The case
arose out of the murder of Mr. Anketell, the station-
master, of Mullingar. The plaintiff was the Rev. Michael
Gogerty, a Roman Catholic clergyman of Mullingar, and
the defendant Mr. John Robinson, proprietor of the
Daily Express. The plaintiff claimed £l,OOO damages for
a libel on him contained in two letters in the Dublin
Express. The alleged libel consisted of two letters published
on the Bth and 10th of March last. In the first letter,
which was written by the Rev. C. P. Reichel, vicar of the
parish, it was stated that Mr. Anketell had for some
time known he was "a marked man ;" that on the 16th of
December last he took the writer aside on the platform of
the station, and, to quote the words of the letter, told him
that "his dismissing a railway official had been referred
to from the altar of a Roman Catholic chapel in such
terms as induced two most respectable Roman Catholics,
both personally known to me, to go to him and disavow
all sympathy with what had been said." The second letter,
signed "A Looker-on," referred to Mr. Reichel's, and
asked why a priest should not be amenable to the law, and
remarked that it would be too much to expect that Cardinal
Cullen would suspend him. The defendant pleaded that
the words were a fair and bond Ilde comment on the con-
duct of the plaintiff, and were published without malice.
The facts were that Lawrence Moran, a railway police•
man, who had been a great many years in the employment
of the railway company, had been dismissed, and that a
great many persons who thought him a very estimable
servant addressed a memorial to the directors to have him
reinstated, and also raised a subscription for him. The
subscribers to this testimonial stated that they thought
him hardly treated. The Rev. Mr. Gogerty was s'ced
to recommend the matter to his congregation, and he
did so in the chapel on the 6th of December last.
He said nothing hostile to Mr. Anketell, and did
not even mention his name, but he said that Moran
had been hardly treated on account of his religion.
It seemed that this was not so ; Moran was dismissed
because he disobeyed Mr. Anketell's orders, but there was
a strong feeling against the station-master in the neigh-
bourhood. The case for the plaintiff was that the letters
alleged that he was the instigator of the murder. But
several Roman Catholics gave it as their opinion that the
plaintiff committed an indiscretion, and that they had
told him so. The jury did not think the letters said much
more. They found a verdict for the defendant, at the
same time exonerating the plaintiff from any intention to
injure Mr. Anketell, and stating their belief that his
object was charitable.

are an infallible remedy for bad legs and all kinds of
wounds. The surprising sale of these invaluable medi-
cines in every part of the civilised world is the most cm.-
vincing proof of their efficacy, of which,were further proof
required, the long list of voluntary testimonials receiv«t
from grateful patients in all quarters of the globe wouhl
amply supp'y it. They speedily curs bad legs,.old
scrofula, and all diseases of the skin. Thousands of per-
sous who had long and severely suffered from those dread-
ful maladies have hen cured by these medicaments, after
every other means had failed ; and it is a fact beyond all
doubt that there is no case, however obstinate or botreVer
long-standing, which they fail to relieve.

Race Glasses, byVoigtliincler, are now no longer the ex-
clusive luxury of the rich. Since the great demand for
photographic lenses has diminished, au opportunity bee
been afforded for applying mechanical power with the
greatest success, whereby the cost of these beautiful and
most perfect instruments is reduced iu price in som
instances to as much as 20 per cent. In fact they are now
no dearer than those of the best French or English maker,.
At the aepot Callaghan, 23A, New Bond-street, corner of
Conduit-street, the patrons of the Derby may indulge
their taste in the possession of a veritable Voigt!itader at
comparatively trifling cost. It is superfluous to say the
quality is as ever matchless.

A LAW THAT WANTS ALTERING.

Mr. Shapland, of Southmolton, calls attention to
a law which, as he rightly says, very much wants
altering. Recently a lad was brought up before
the magistrates charged with stealing leather scraps
worth 2s. The magistrates said they had no alterna-
tive but to send the lad to prison. Mr. Shapland,
as his attorney, called the attention of the Bench to
the 108th section of the Larceny Act (24th and 25th
Vic., c. 96) which provides that where any person shall
be summarily convicted before a magistrate of any
offence against the Act, the magistrate may dis-
charge him on making satisfaction to the party
aggrieved for damages and costs. The magistrates
said that the section did not apply to the Act under
which they were acting, 18th and 19th Vic., c.
128. Consequently, although the lad received a good
character from his master, and was recommended
to mercy, he was made a gaol bird for life.
One cannot help wondering why the master should
have taken the extreme step of placing the boy in
the dock, when a reprimand would probably have
answered the purpose of preventing the repetition of
what was expressly stated to be a first offence. But
if masters are thus severe in enforcing the law that
is the more reason why it should be made as
merciful as possible. Mr. Shapland proposes that a
short Act should be passed declaring that the section
of the first-mentioned Act should apply to the
second.

lIUMAN HYMNS.

An old grievance is proclaimed in a new place,
and the protest against " human hymns " made in the
Scotch Free Church General Assembly is re-echoed
by the convicts of the Irish Prison of Spike Island.
The prisoners wanted their worship to be as free
from earthly associations as possible, and refused to
sing any but "inspired " lines. In this case the
creed would seem to be better than the men.

A CURIOUS AFFAIR.—Sarah Taylor was charged on a
warrant with assaulting Mr. Thos. Butler, of 147, Vaux-
hall-bridge.

The prosecutor, a person of sanctimonious appearance
said to be a son of a clergyman, deposed that on Friday
night ho was near Victoria Station, and was assaulted by
the prisoner. Another woman, since apprehended, and a
man who threw stones and filth at him, and hurt him
severely.
Prisoner denied the charge altogether, and said she
knew the prosecutor; he was always about the station,
and owed her 30s, which she asked him for.
Mr. Arnold said Mr. Butler seemed to be keeping very
bad company and loitering about Victoria Station late at
night ; the police had seen him there. He remanded the
prisoner till Tuesday, and would take her own recogni-
zance for her appearance.

Lieutenant-General Sir George Buller, G.C.8.,
commanding the South-Western District, accom-
panied by his Staff, comprising Lieutenant. Colonel
Willis, D.Q.G. ; Major Barker, D.A.Q.G. ; Major
Breton, Town Major; Colonel M'Kenzie, A.D.C.,
and Lieutenant Fitzgerald, A.D.C., crossed over
from Portsmouth to Gosport yesterday for the pur-
pose of holding his annual inspection of the Royal
Marine Light Infantry. The corps was drawn up
in line under the command of Colonel-Commandant
Aslett, in the drill field opposite the barracks at
Forton. The General arrived at 12 o'clock, and
was received with a general &ditto, after which he
minutely inspected the men. This was followed by
the customary march past and a variety of ma-
noeuvres, to test the efficiency of the corps in the
field, with the whole of which the General expressed
his approbation.

THE tEPLY OF THE SULTAN.

News from Constantinople, dated the 28th of August,
states that the reply-of the Porte to the letter of the
Khedive was to leave on.Tuerlay, and was to be conveyed,
like its predecessor, by an aide-de-camp of the Grand
Vizier. In this letter the Porte thanks the Khedive for
Lis protestations. of devotion, but asks as a guarantee of
his good faith the surrender or the sale of the armour-clad
ships and the new arms with which he has supplied him•
self. and the reduction' of his troops within -the limits
imposed by the firmans. The Porte also requests the Khe•
dive to renounce the imposition of new taxes, to promise the
reduction of existing taxes, which are now too high, and
to transmit to Constantinople an annual statement of the
financial situation of Egypt.

TILE' MUTDER AT IVEIT-P01?T.

Only a retV-factS are yet reported concerning the murder
of Mr. Hunter, a farmer, at Newport, County Mayo. It
forms a terrible commentary upon the discussion of 1,10
land question, which is now going on with unremitting
vigour in the press. The victim was (as we have stated)
a Scotch settler, named Hunter, a respectable farmer,
who was shot dead while driving home from
Newport, which is situate about four miles from his own
house. His wife and son and a servant were seated on
the car along with him. On reaching a certain part of the
road not far from his own house there appeared to be
some impediment in the way, and the vehicle was stopped'
Immediately a man, who had been awaiting the 011P°r•
tunity, came up to him, and, lodging two
pistol balls in
his body, killed him on the spot. One account states
that he was turning down off the road towards his bons°
when the assassin met him. The rest of the family were
allowed to escape uninjured. The cause is stated Sg
agrarian. Mr. Hunter had taken the lease of a far°
containing bog, on which the tenants of the adjoinin3
farm claimed the right to cut turf. He was advised to bring
an action of trespass against one. He selected a farmernamed O'Neill, obtained a decree, and on Friday sed
a growing crop. No one would act as bailiff, and
obtained a special warrant, and took charge himself.
Sunday evening he drove with his family into Newl'°rt'
and on his return was shot as he was turning off the road
into the farm. This is the first agrarian murder in 5133.°
within living memory, Two men have been arrested on
suspicion.

There is still a chance that the English and American
champions, James Renforth and Walter Brown, will con-
test their prowess in a sculling match. Brown has not
yet withdrawn the £25 posted to bind his acceptance of
the challenge, and a meeting of the Englishman's backers
is to be held this week, when probably the terms of a
match will be drawn out and offered for acceptance to
Brown. Renforth is quite ready to row on the Thames
instead of the Tyne.

in the same.

The directors also draw attention to the successful esta-
blishment during the past year of the Britannia Fire
Association, under the auspices of the Briton. The direc-
tors believe that the establishment of a Fire Company, to
work in active co-operation with the Life, will tend much
to the advantage and profit of both institutions. it is
scarcely necessary to remark that the capital funds and
constitution of each office are quite separate and distinct.

GREECE.

Active discussions have been carried on in Athens with
reference to the policy of the Bulgaria Cabinet on the
Candiote question. A motion to the effect that a discus.
sion was undesirable was rejected by 104 against 20.
Another motion, proposing that three members should be
appointed to present the charge against M. Bulgaris and
his colleagues, in virtue of the Slst Article of the Consti-
tution, was taken into consideration, and the Chamber
resolved to discuss it at another sitting. M. Delyannis
has made a speech, frankly accepting the decisions of the
Paris Conference on the Turco-Grecian question, and
declaring his willingness to make that the basis of his
policy.
