ANOT ITER RITUALIST MEETING.

If the Church .flews is to be believed, there is to be
another Ritualist demonstration. It is to be a meet-
ing of clerics and laymen at St. James' Hall, in
order to protest against t::e " unconstitutional and
unfair, as well as anti-Catho:.;e judgment, recently
delivered in the case of Martin v. Mackonochie."
The object of the meeting will be "to convince the
public that Churchmen will not easiry tolerate any
interference with the rights of conscience and the
doctrine, discipline, and ritual of the Church by
other than Church courts." It seems to be forgotton
that " Churchmen "—I ligh Church men, too—were
quite content to accept the decision of Sir Robert
Phillimore, who is a layman, whatever his coil-It may
be. We are inclined to think that a Church court, com-
posed of men like the Archbishop of York and the
Bishops of Durham, Manchester, Carlisle, ard Ripon,
would be even more unsatisfactory to lligh Ch tirchni en

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
tolled the " Natural Strengthener of the Human Stomach.'
" Norton's Pills" act as a powerful tonic and gentle ape-
rient; are mild in their operation, safe under any cir-
inmstaness, 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.

LODGERS' VOTES.

One of the metropolitan revising barristers, Mr.
Bacon, holding his Registration Court in St. Pancras,
has decided a novel point. Part of the premises in the
occupation of a lodger were sub-let by him. But though
he received rent from the portion which he did not
himself occupy, the lodger paid an amount for rent
which, under ordinary circumstances, would entitle
him to a vote. On the ,n•round, however, that the
Act required that the lodger must be tho " sole
tenant of the premises in respect of which he
claims, Mr. Bacon struck oil the name of the appli-
cant.

THE DENOMINATIONAL SYSTEM.

The Rev. John Oakley, the Vicar of St. Saviour's,
Hoxton, formerly secretary of the London Diocesan
Board of Education, has written a long and forcible
letter to the secretary of the National Education
League, objecting to some points in the pro-
gramme of the now society. He is a
believer in compulsory education, but upholds
the denominational system. Parents, he thinks, will
not accept purely secular education. To render State
aid to such schools only, would be to give an
unfair start, an advantage to those schools
over others. For they would in truth be denomi-
national, though they would call themselves " secular."
He thinks it unfair, too, to demand that all schools
receiving Government aid should be free. He
suggests that grants should still be Meade to thoso
which do charge far the education given.

FOREIGN NOTES.

TEE SOITTIIERN STATES OP GERMAN?.

The 2rational Gazette, of Berlin, devotes a long article to
the consideration of the chances which Prussia has of
seeing the Southern States of Germany entering into
the Northern Confederation. The Ga:dte does not think
it likely that either Wfirtemburg or Bavaria would be
willing to give in their adhesion yet awhile, but as for
Baden, that is another question, and it looks forward with
confidence to the realisation of the wish. It urges on its
friends in the Baden territory to hasten the time when the
bonds which unite Prussia and the Grand Duchy will
be strengthened.

AN EXPENSIVE VISIT.

Two friends took private lodgings at Doncaster last
week for the four days over which the races
extended. On one of the evenings they had an
acquaintance to dine with them, but no addition was
made to the dinner in consequence. When about to
leave a bill of £l6 lls. 6d. was presented for pay-
ment. One of the victims of this fleecing operation
gives the various items of the account in the Times,
regretting that the necessaries of life should he so
scarce in Yorkshire, and feeling for the inhabitants of
Doncaster, who, if those items are in accordance with
market prices, have to vay about eleven shillings a
pound for their tea. The bill was eventually dis-
charged with a reduction of seventeen shillings.

AWNINGS FOIL OMNIBUSES,

A correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, moved by
the sight of the unhappy " City men " sitting on the
knifeboards of omnibuses in wet weather, and seeking
to shelter themselves under umbrellas which are not
so effectual in keeping the rain off their owners as in
pouring it down the backs of other people, suggests
that the tops of omnibuses should be protected
by awnings. At present it is difficult to
go about in wet weather without incurring great
expense by taking a cab, or extreme discomort by
taking an omnibus, and the horrors of a full omnibus
on a wet day are not to be lightly encountered, The
plan proposed might be tried at comparatively little
cost.

DIMADHEAD.

The public history of William Broadhead; of
Sheffield, is now complete • and thrilling enough it is.
From prosperity he has fallen to begging. Not long
ago he was the moving spirit of the local trades'
union ; he was a merciless king over a body of
workmen. Whosoever disobeyed his law was warned,
disabled, even murdered. But the terrors of his
rule caused a cry ; the cry led to inquiry; and from
with 1 success the tyrant of Sheffield fell to be a
loathed creature. The magistrates would not renew
the license for his public-house, and he took a beer-
shop. But now a change in the law has brought
that also under magisterial control, and Broad-
head is not considered fit for such a position. The
other day he tried to raise sympathy on his behalf;
but failing, he has determined to leave the country,
and yesterday a letter appeared from him in tho local
paper which a few months since denounced him,
begging for money to enable him to go to another
land. His is certainly one of the strangest histories
of these later years.

The New York Citizen and Round Table remarks :
—"ln none of the notices of the Siamese Twins that we
have seen has mention been made of the famous Scotch
double man, of whom the following curious account is
given in the 'Rerum Scoticarum Historia:'—‘ During
the reign of James the Third of Scotland, and at his Court,
there lived a man, double above the waist, single below
that region. The King caused him to be carefully brought
up. He rapidly acquired a knowledge of music. The two
heads learned several languages ; they debated together,
and the two upper halves occasionally fought. They
lived generally, however, in the greatest harmony. When
the lower part of the body was tickled the two indivi-
duals felt it together ; but when, on the other hand, one
of the upper individuals was touched, ho alone felt the
effect. This monstrous being died at the ago of twenty-
eight years. One of the bodies died several days before
the other."

The New York Evening Post has the following
upon "curious contrasts":—" The Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of the United States is paid $6,500 a year,
and the Auditor in the Custom House in this city is paid
$7,000 a year ; the Chief Justice of the Court of Claims in
Washington is paid $l,OOO a year ; the Clerk of the Com-
mon Council of this city is paid $5,000 a year; the Attor-
ney-Goneral of the United States is paid $B,OOO a year;
the Counsel to the Corporation of this city is paid $lO,OOO
a :ear, besides pickings; the Chi. f Justice of the Supremo
Court of the District of Columbia is paid 83,000 a year;
and the Justice of the First District Court in this city is
paid $5,000 a year.

cADVERTISEMENT. I—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Sa.ety combined with efficiency are the marked charac •
teristics of Holloway's admirable remedies, which require
for their proper use little learning, for their favourable re-
sults little faith and moderate perseverance. Glandular
swellings in tho throat, neuralgia, tic doloreux, rheuma-
tismAgout, lumbago, and other diseases affecting the glands,
muscles, and nerves of sensation are permanently eradi-
cated by this healing antifebrile and soothing preparation.
It is also a perfect remedy for all skin diseases and every
kind of superficial inflammation, which soon lose their
angry and painful character under this invaluable oint-
ment. The pills have never been administered, either by
hospital or private practitioners, in dyspepsia or liver

R. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
-IL Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETII, 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, end 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 restorr, articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

A CHANGED MAN.

William Broadhead, the instigator of the notorious
Sheffield outrages, is regarded as an injured man by a large
number in Sheffield. They say he should not be "hounded
to the end." Broadhead has honestly produced testi-
monials. Among others the vicar of St. Matthews, Shef-
field, has written in his favour. " I recommend W. Broad-
head," the rev. gentleman says, "to be entrusted with a license
for his public-house, and I do so on the following grounds'
I. Because, since the outrages, in which ho was evidently
concerned, and which were so clearly brought home to
the guilty parties, I have had opportunities of observing
his conduct, and I think a beneficial change has taken
place in his character and principles. Ile is a constant
and apparently a sincere worshipper at my Church.
2. Because a bad man need not necessarily be always a bad
man, and because I would rather facilitate than hinder any
tendency to recovery of character and improvement of con-
duct. 4. Because W. Broadhead has a large family, which
ho promises in future shall not suffer from want of paternal
example and honest industry."

TRADES UNIONS.

Mr. Georgo Odger enters the lists against tEo
Time 3, which, in a recent article declared that tha
woriong classes, as representedtneir trades unions,
are Protectionists to a man," and spoke of a move-
ment going on among them which would bring
Messrs. Cobden and Brig-hes great principle of Free
Trade again into question. Possessed of an
extensive and intimate acquaintance with .tho
leading trades unions in England, and with
members of trades unions generally, Mr. Odger
has no hesitation in declaring that of the thousands
of trades societies existing in this country not one of
them, as a society, is in favour of Protection. Nor is
ho less certain that there is not one leading man in
those societies anxious to sot up again the old idol
that was tumbled to the ground by the efforts
of Cobden and Bright. That there are
Protectionists amongst working men is not
denied, and it is admitted that there aro a great
many who do not believe that freedom in trade, any
more than freedom in anything else, means the entire
absence of regulation and control. " They wish
for a wise, and, in that sense, a beneficial
reciprocity in trade, and not for an unwise and
therefore injurious monopoly. And they do not
consider themselves shut up by Mr. Cobden's French
Treaty, or by any other treaty or law, from seeking
to make men reciprocities honest interchanges of
mutual good." They are not for this reason, it is
urged, to be regarded as likely to interfere to any
serious extent with the commercial policy advocated
by Richard Cobden, or with the annual rejoicings of
the Cobden Club. The agreement entered into at
Basle by the trades unionists at the International
Cont.-,,reas to the effect that they would never rise
above the level of workmen and that they 'Would
pursue the class above them "to the death with
unrelenting enmity," sets forth doctrines •which Mr.
Odgers says are quite new to him, and to all with whom
he has worked as a trades unionist.

PRICE OF GOLD.

Tbc quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
Le short exchange on London is 25f. 150. per £1 sterllnv.

On comparing these rates with the ICnglish Mint price of
£3 lie. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold at the above price is slightly dearer in Paris than in

.on don.

The course of exchange at New York on London for Ulla at Cl,
days' sight was 1071 por cent. on the 20th inst. At this rat 3 there
would be a loss on the transmission of gold from the United
States.
