CHURCH PLURALITIES.

Attention is again called by " A Cambridge M.A.
and a Lincolnshire Rector" to the case of pluralities
held by the Dean of Lincoln. Dr. Jeremie is dean
of Lincoln, rector of Somersham, and Regius Pro-
fessor of Divinity in the University of Cambridge.
For the deanery he gets £2,000 a year, for the
rectory k,1,770, and for the professorship k4O; for which
modest sum the following work is expected, according
to the laws of the Church and the University—eight
months at Lincoln, nine months at Somersham,
four months at Cambridge the work of
twenty-one months to be got into twelve.
And yet the very rev. doctor holds on to all three
posts, working Somersham by curates, and, if all
tales are true,- doing the other work but indifferently.
" A Cambridge M.A." says : " I have heard (though
I don't vouch for its truth) a report that the Dean
justifies his retention of the Professorship by the
plea that there would be a difficulty in supplying
his place, and that Cambridge could not provide
one fit to succeed him. Unhappy university ! (ex-
claims the correspondent), wherein this Elijah of
her divinity schools has been labouring for eighteen
years, without having trained an Elisha worthy to
take up his mantle—a Jeremiah without an Ezekiel.
If this be true, it is a more damaging estimate of the
value of the Professor's work than his worst eneniv
could wish to form."

THE TRISH ELECTION PETITIONS.

All th e Irish election petitions have been tried. Thero
were 15 constituencies affected ; and the result is
that Mr. Devereux (L.) was unseated on an infor-
mility, and has since been re-elected ; that Mr.
Whitworth (L.) has been unseated for intimidation,
Mr. O'Beirne (L.) for bribery, and that two Conser-
vatives, Sir A. Guinness and Major Knox, have been
unseated for treating. Seven Liberals who were
petitioned against have been declared duly elected.
The Youghal petition remains undecided, some
points of law being reserved. Four petitions have
been withdrawn. Omitting Youghal, the result has
been to leave the relative strength of parties what
it was, two members on each side having been
unseated.

LORD SALISBURV'S BILL.

Whatever theoretical or constitutional objections
there may be to Lord Salisbury's bill for allowing
the Lords when they have not been able to pass a
measure in one session to take it up in the next
at the stage at which it dropped, there ought to be
no room for jealousy between the two Houses. The
Commons always must have the chief place in the
Legislature so long as they retain the power of the
purse. Therefore it is not fair to taunt the Peers for
indolence, which is for the most part involuntary)
nor to hinder the efforts which the Peers are making
for improving their own efficiency. The true cause
of such jealousy as does exist seems to, be that the
Peers take their places in Parliament without trouble
or expense, while the Commons have to go through
the unpleasant and costly ordeal of a contested
election.

TEE BALLOT.

'• Wintoniensis," writing to the Telegraph, opposes
the general opinion that the Ballot is American in its
origin. In proof of the error of that notion he pro-
duces a transcript from the Archives of Winchester.
The document is dated 30th October, 1056, and pro-
vides for the election of mayor and all other officers
of the city "by pewter." It sets forth that whereas
the municipal elections had formerly caused clamour
and ill-blood, for prevention thereof in time to come,
and for the end that the citizens may be more free
in their votes, it is ordained and established that there
"be forthwith provided One hundred Bullets, of
colours Bed and White, in equal proportions, and
that the said Bullets be kept in a fit box, to be pro-
vided for that purpose. And that at all such Public
Assemblies and Meetings, one of each of the said
Bullets be delivered to each citizen then present,
and that the Mayor for the time being do
declare in writing, under his hand, for
what Person or purpose each of the said
Bullets shall stand at every Nomination or
Election ' • according to the dictates of his conscience;
and that the Mayor put in two Bullets for his cast-
ing Vote (in case the Bullets so put in as aforesaid
shall happen to be even) ; and that upon view of the
said Bullets, the Election to pass, stand, and be deter-
mined, according to the major part of the Bullets."
This curious resolution is followed by a provision
" That it shall and may be lawful to and for any
Citizen, if he think fit, openly to publish and make
known his Vote, and to declare the reasons and
inducements leading him thereunto;'

The low pressure noticed in the north-east yesterday morning
appears to have moved in a south-easterly direction with great
rapidity, and since about noon feedings in the north have recovered
8-10ths of an inch. In the S. of France a fall has occurred. The
lowest pressure is now in the S.E.—that at Cape GrisNea being o'42in.
lower than at Valencia. Temperature has decreased generally. except
in the S. of France, where a rapid rise is reported. The N.W. gale
extended down our N. and E. coasts during yesterday, and fresh to
strong winds from the same quarter are felt at other stations. Wind
Is now N.E.—light in Scotland and Ireland, but blowing a gale in the
E. In the S. of Franca strong westerly winds are reported. Weather
lias been generally dry, and is now finer than of late. The sea is
rather high on the E. coast. Warnings were issued to our N. and
coasts yesterday morning.

TIIE ENDOWED SCHOOLS BILL.

----
If we may gather anything from the hints thrown
out by the Opposition papers, the Government
Endowed Schools Bill is likelyr to be resisted on the
old question of religion. The measure contains a
attendance at daily prayers
conscience clause, maling
and religious instruction optional on the part of the
parents. The Standard publishes a petition from
the trustees of Chesterfield School upon the sub-
ject, in which it is urged that the enactment
" would inflict a very severe blow on the religious
teaching, discipline, and moral tone of schools
throughout the country, and have the effect of lower-
ing the value of religious worship and instruction
in the eyes of the rising generation." The old
objections to the Conscience Clause have lost much of
their force since the publication of the reports of the
Educational Committee. It Is no longer considered
impossible to allow such as do not wish to receive
religious teaching to withdraw from the classes in
which religion is being Imparted. But, on the other
hand, the question has passed into a party one,
and party is a great enemy to any practical discus-
sion.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS.

inE BEWDLEY WRIT.

By a majority of two to one the House of Corti-
mons has declared that it sees no reason why the
writ for Bewdley should be suspended for twelve
months. But although the majority is large, it is
conclusively proved that there is a considerable
number of members of the House who will endea-
vour to punish corrupt constituencies, although the
question is not taken up by the Government. There
is no doubt that the strongest argument brought
against Mr. Muntz's amendment was the fact that
the Bradford writ had been granted without opposi-
tion. If, therefore, the writ for Bewdley had been
withheld, it would have looked too much like party
spite. The Government found themselves—for the
first time this session--on the horns of a dilemma.
With scarcely an exception, the Liberal's who gene-
rally station themselves below the gangway were
heartily in favour of the amendinent. Indeed, when
Sir Roundell Palmer was speaking, hewas continually
interrupted by the " independent " men, whilst not a
sound of approval or otherwise came from the
Treasury bench. Both Sir Robert Collier and Mr.
Bruce endeavoured to throw oil upon the troubled
waters, but they signally failed, and the Government
were obliged to vote against their own party. It
was some time before the division was taken, great
laughter being indulged in by the " noes " at seeing
Mr. Glyn and Mr. Noel working together. It must
be confessed that the Government—Mr. Gladstone
included—appeared to feel the humiliation of allying
themselves with the Conservative party in order to
defeat their own supporters. Altogether, instead of
the Government being victorious, they certainly
received a well-merited rebuke from the men below
the gangway.

The division list shews that not a single Conser-
vative voted against the granting of the writ. But
the Liberals who recorded their aversion to such a
course represent some of the largest constituencies in
the kingdom. These were Mr. Bazley, Mr. Jacob
Bright, Mr. Alderman Carter, Mr. Dixon, Mr. Dilke,
Mr. Dillwyn, Mr. Graham, Mr. Hadfield, Mr. Law-
rence (London), Mr. Locke, Mr. M'Laren, Mr.
Morley, and Mr. Mundella. The members of the
Government voting with the Ayes were Mr. Adam,
Mr. Ayrton, Mr. Baxter, Mr. Bruce, Mr. Chil-
ders, Sir Robert Collier, Mr. Forster, Mr.
Gladstone, Mr. Glyn, Mr. Goschen, Mr.
Knatchbull-Hugessen, Mr. Otway, Mr. Sullivan, and
Mr. Trevelyan. Mr. Bright was in the House
during the discussion, but absented himself from the
division. The most prominent Conservatives voting
with the Government were Mr. Russell Gurney, Sir
John Hay, Mr. Henley, Mr. Ward Hunt, Lord
Robert Montagu, and Sir John Pakington. Sir
Roundel' Palmer also went into the lobby with the
majority. Colonel Dyott and Mr. Goldney acted as
tellers for the Ayes, and Mr. Muntz and Dr. Brewer
for the Noes.
