ITALY.

King Victor Emmanuel made a promising beginning at
Naples in 1860. He offered to endow twenty poor girls
+hat twenty young patriots
could be found to accept them. The marriages took place,
but, according to the correspondent of the Weekly Register
the money has never been paid. After waiting this
tolerably long period of nine years, the deluded patriots
are bringing the matter before a jury, and the suit is now
being tried in the courts of Naples.

AIR. 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 hat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

THE ROLL OF THE HOUSE OF PEERS.

The roll of the lords spiritual and temporal has just
been published. It contains the names of 470 peers.
But of these some ten or twelve are minors. The
list is headed by the name of the Prince of Wales,
who sits as Duke of Cornwall. Then comes the
Duke of Edinburgh, then the Duke of Cumberland
(who is still styled King of Hanover), followed by
the Duke of Cambridge. The list shews further
that there are 20 dukes, of whom the Duke of
Norfolk, one of the youngest peers, is the head, as
Earl Marshal of England. There are 20 marquises,
headed by the Marquis of Winchester, and 127 earls,
Shrewsbury and Derby coming first; 30 viscounts,
the spiritual peers; 20 in number, the Irish repre-
sentative peers, and 234 barons make up the list.

WHAT ARE 44 THE THREE ESTATES ? "

The Daily News calls attention to a common
blunder made concerning " the three estates." These
are often spoken of as the Crown, the Lords, and the
Commons. But the Crown is not an estate at all.
The lords spiritual, the lords temporal, and the
Commons are correctly designated by that name.

THAMES.

THE ADVANTAGES OF A CHARACTER.—Dennis Driscoll,
aged 24 years, a labourer, was charged with violently
assaulting Parker, a police-constable, No. 69 R.
The complainant was engaged in suppressing a disturb-
ance in Rateliff-highway, and he succeeded in dispersing
a turbulent set of people of both sexes. He was leaving
to resume his usual duty when the prisoner took up the
half of a red brick lying in the road and threw it at the
policeman, at the same time exclaiming, take that,
you -. The half brick was intended for the con-
stable's head but it struck him on the left thigh and in-
jured him.

The prisoner did not deny throwing the half brick at
the constable, and said he did not intend to hurt him. lie
hoped he should have the advantage of a character.
Mr. Paget—Certainly, if it is a good one.
The prisoner then called Inspector Alston, of the
Thames Police, who said that the prisoner had been fined
in that court for assaulting two females, and that another
summons was taken out against him for an assault upon
some persons at St. Bride's Wharf, Wapping. The pri-
soner absconded, was away a long time, and uttirnately the
proceedings were abandoned.

The Prisoner—You know I am h hard working man.
Inspector Alston—And a hard drinking and hard swear-
ing one, too.

Mr. Paget said the prisoner had the audacity to call
upon an inspector of pdiee to give him a character, and
he should have the advantage of that character. He sen-
tenced him to one months' imprisonment and hard labour.

Mr. Kuhe's orchestral concerts, which will form
an epoch in the history of the musical world of Brighton,
not only amongst musical people but in every portion of
the commnity there, have resulted in a great and de-
served success.

NEWFOUNDLAND.—.A telegram received in Hali-
fax, Nova Scotia, states that the Sewfoundland Assembly
have passed the address iu reply to the Lieutenant-Go-
vernor's speech, affirming union with the dominion of
Canada by 20 to 8. The Legislative Council affirmed by
an unanimous vete.

POLICE OPPRESSION.

"An Englishman" writes to the Times to com-
plain of the conduct of an " over-zealous " policeman
who handcuffed two foreigners at the Gainsborough
Station. Their only offence was that they had each
a small bundle, and they could not explain their right
of possession from ignorance of our language.
It turned out that the bundle contained their
personal luggage, and they were allowed to proceed
on their way when the affair had been explained to
the over-zealous official. It may be suggested that
the superabundant activity of the police had better
be employed in the detection of real criminals than
in the molestation of unfortunate foreigners.

MUSIC AND TIIE DRAMA.

All go as far as Constantinople, where, by the way,
Wieniawski is already making music for the Sultan.
The Jaells are in Paris; Vieuxternps and Albert, the
violinist, come to London in April. The Marchioness
Caux, (Adelina Patti), is now in St. Petersburg,
and the Orchestra mentions that in " Barbiere " she
sings a national air to please the Russians, as, when
in Loudon, she used to sing " Home Sweet Home," to
please the English. Nevertheless, this air is not
English, but Sicilian. The same paper says :
" Rumour goes that a young and rather pre-
possessing lady of an old English family will make
her appearance at one of the West-end theatres at
Easter in an 'equestrian drama of great m,-,gnifi-
cence and abounding in wonderful and sensational
effects. The young lady is well known in the
hunting-field as one of the most fearless and daring
of riders." We understand, however, that this drama
has been postponed, though it is likely that Miss
Sandford, the lady referred to, will have another
opportunity
of appearing in public.

ELT-CTION NEWS.

The Taunton election petition is the first in which
the petitioner has claimed and obtained the seat. It
often happens that a petitioner would claim were it
not that the expense of a scrutiny is (if the differ-
ence of votes between him and the sitting member
be large) so enormous, that it is cheaper to have a
fresh election. In the present instance the peti-
tioner, Mr. Henry James, was only twenty-eight
votes behind the sitting member, Sergeant
Cox, and - therefore he succeeded in establish-
ing his position without much difficulty. The
Daily .News gives the following statistics as
to the election petitions which had been decided
up to Friday night :—Petitions against the returns
of 70 members have been disposed of, in the propor-
tion of 40 Liberals to 30 Conservatives. Of the
Liberals petitioned against, five have been un-
seated, or 121 per cent. ; while of the Conserva-
tives six have been unseated, or 20 per cent.
Of the six seats vacated by the latter, four—Bewdley,
Norwich, Sligo, and Taunton—were Conservative
gains at the general election. The Conservative
losses by the election tribunals are already equal to
the entire number of their unseated members in the
last Parliament, and are three times as numerous as
they were-in inc uhloa ithuwo, rivat ioou
to 18G5.

The Birmingham Post (Liberal journal) says it is
improbable that there will be any opposition to the
return of Mr. Canliffe, the Conservative candidate
for Bewdley, although there has been a rumour that
Earl Dudley would bring forward a candidate. It is
believed that Mr. Hemming, who was in the field for
some time in conjunction with Mr. Thomas Lloyd
during the general election, has no intention of again
offering himself.

The Alliance News is glad to state that Mr. Allan s
election committee have not one public-house or
beerhouse committee-room engaged, or in any way
whatever used, for election purposes. School-rooms,
vestries, and private houses are being used, and are
found in every way better for the transaction of
business than the drink shops. Mr. Thompson ap-
pears to be following in the steps of Mr. Ripley, the
unseated candidate, for he has engaged numerous
public-houses.

THE CASE OF MICHAEL ATKINS.

The Star thinks that the conviction of Michael
Atkins, at Warwick Assizes, for the murder of his
wife, demands further inquiry. The condemned
is a young man only 22, who lives at the village of
Baddesley Ensor, and is by employment a miner.
There is no evidence of his having any motive for
the crime of murder, for though the parents
of the deceased said that Atkins and his wife had
formerly differed, they admitted that of late they had
agreed well together. On the evening of Mrs.
Atkins's death, her husband, according to his written
statement, h2d come home quite sober. His wife
let him in, and they went into the sitting-room
together. Atkins took up his gun, which was in a
corner of the room, with the intention of putting it
by, but while he was handling it it accidentally
went off, and his wife dropped dead. A neighbour,
awakened by the noise, heard Atkins exclaim " Oh,
my Harriet. They need not say I have done it.
I would not have done it for a thousand pounds."
Unfortunately Atkins became afterwards so terrified
at the position in which he stood that he declared,
on his being taken into custody, that he was not in
the house when the event occurred, and that his wife
had shot herself. Mr. Justice Hannen told the jury
that they might return a verdict of manslaughter,
but influenced by the manifest falsehood told by the
prisoner at first, and by the natural irritation of his
wife's parents, they passed a verdict of guilty, and
Atkins lies under sentence of death for murder. The
Star believes that the case is one which demands
further investigation before the full penalty of the
law is inflicted.

THE TURF.

Lord Rosslyn, in a letter to the Times, speaks very
cAndidly of the power and position of the Turf:—" I
do not agree (he writes) with those who consider
racing is, pier et simple, an institution to improve the
breed of horses. It is mainly supported by private
individuals at a large private outlay. It has a mani-
fest object, the desire to win certain prizes. These
are allotted among two-year-old, and four, five, and
aged horses. The desire for early maturity has
caused breeders of horses (as in cattle and sheep
breeders) to select such animals for the pur-
pose as ripen quickly and are available for
racing at the earlie3t possible period." As to
the alleged deterioration of breed, he denies
that it has taken place, but suggests a " simple plan
by which those who covet the nimble ninepence
may still secure their early profits, and those who
patriotically race only to improve the racehorse may
have an additional incentive to keep their horses for
three-year-old races. I would suggest that two-
year-old races remain as they are, but that all three-
year-old horses that have never faced the starter
should be treated to an allowance of, say, 31b.. 51b.,
or 71b."

LORD SPENCER AND TILE LAND QUESTION.

Earl Spencer has a very difficult task to perform ;
he has to answer deputations advocating views of the
most advanced kind satisfactorily to the opinions of
the said deputations, and with due regard to what
are called the exigencies of Government. It must
be confessed that his Excellency has shewn himself
most skilful ; as, for instance, in the following reply
made a day or two back to a deputation on the land
question :—" You may be assured that whtaiever
the Government see a prospect of securing to this
question the time and attention which its importance
deserves at their hands, and the hands of Parliament,
they will not fail to use their best endeavours to
settle it upon a satisfactory basis."

ARMY AND NAVY ITEMS.

Mr. Childers does not mean to dispense with the
'loyal Naval Reserve, as was generally reported.—lt
is thought probable that Lord Strathnairn will
succeed Lord Gough as colonel of the Blues.—Lord
Clarence Paget will very shortly be succeeded by Sir
Alexander Milne in the command of the Mediter-
ranean squadron.—The Channel Fleet will return to
England before the end of the month.—lt is under-
stood that Lord Northbrook's report respecting the
reorganisation of the army has been approved by the
Treasury.

Mil. CUILDERS'S " JOB."

Mr. Pease has done Mr. Childers a kindness; he
has given the First Lord of the Admiralty an oppor-
tunity of explaining the Greenwich Hospital " job."
It appears that there was no job at all, so far as he
and his colleagues are concerned, and the professional
papers, which ought to have known the facts better,
have been entirely misled. In May 1865, Mr.
Childers being then a Junior Lord of the Admiralty,
objected to the creation of the sinecure office of
Governor of Greenwich Hospital, and defeated
Sir John Hay by four votes when that officer
attempted to constitute that sinecure. But
Sir John was not to be beaten, renewed
his attempt, and compelled the Admiralty to give
way. In appointing Sir Houston Stewart to the
sinecure the other day Mr. Childers therefore was
merely carrying out the instructions laid upon him,
against his will, by an officer who afterwards became
a Conservative Lord of the Admiralty ; so that, in
fact, it was the Conservatives, not the Liberals, who
are responsible for the job. It is satisfactory to
know that it is not so costly as was at first supposed.
The salary allotted to this sinecure is not £1,200, but
433, and as the holder of it remains on the active
list no additional charge for pay or half-pay is
incurred.
GOVERNMENT AND TIIE TELEGRAMS.

The Railway .News vigorously defends the in-
tended purchase of the telegraphs by the Govern-
ment. A London correspondent states that the sum
necessary for the purchase will be included in the
civil service estimates. Mr. Scudamore, released from
his Custom House labours, is busy at work getting
ready for his protege, and the propriety of creating
a new Government establishment to control the
working and keep the accounts of the new branch is
receiving the serious consideration of the authorities.

LAAIBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
Having coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on reliefin a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 13F1., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Be particular, and ask for Larnbert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the
stamp.

THE TURF.

Lord Rosslyn, in a letter to the Times, peaas very
candidly of the power and position of theTurf:—" I
do not agree (he writes) with those wlo consider
racing is, pur et simple, an institution to inprove the
breed of horses. It is mainly supported by private
individuals at a large private outlay. It las a mani-
fest object, the desire to win certain pries. These
are allotted among two-year-old, and fotr, five, and
aged horses. The desire for early rntturity has
caused breeders of horses (as in cattle and sheep
breeders) to select such animals for the pur-
pose as ripen quickly and are avrilable for
racing at the earliest possible periol." As to
the alleged deterioration of breed, he denies
that it has taken place, but suggests a "iimple plan
by which those who covet the nimble ninepence
may still secure their early profits, and those who
patriotically race only to improve the racehorse may
have an additional incentive to keep their horses for
three-year-old races. I would suggest that two-
year-old races remain as they are, but that all three-
year-old horses that have never faced the starter
should be treated to an allowance of, say, 31b.. 61b.,
or 71b."
London, England, 1869-03-08

REMARKS.

The rapid recovery of pressure noticed on Saturday in the north
passed on to stations in the south-east yesterday morning ; but the
decrease which succeeded it on Saturday afternoon had extended,
and amounted to 4.l'3in. on the N.W. coast, and readings were falling
generally. This morning the decrease has become much more
marked, and has passed on to the eastward. The lowest reading is
at Aberdeen, and is o'4in. lower than that at Valencia. Temperature
had yesterday fallen somewhat except at western stations. This
morning a further fall is noted in France, but elsewhere changes are
irregular and small. Winds were on Sunday moderate—variable in
these islands and northerly in France. To-day N.W. winds prevail'
in the west, S.W. breezes in the east, and an easterly wind exists
over France—the force continuing moderate. Some rain has fallen
in the W. and S. The sky is cloudy, with fog in the E and snow in
London. The sea is calm.
London, England, 1869-03-08

SCOTTISH EDUCATION.

Mr. Cumin, late secretary of the Scottish Educa-
tion Commission, writes to the Times to dissipate
the fear that rating closes the source of voluntary
support. He gives instances to shew the fallacy of
this notion, one being that the Scotch landlords are
not hound to contribute £35.a year as salary to the
parish teacher, but they often contribute much more.
In Scotland there are many schools which are
entirely supported by voluntary contributions ; so
that the rate system has not hitherto acted as
a check to voluntary support. Mr. Cumin also
observes that the enforcement of a conscience-
clause will not be so obnoxious to the Scotch as
people have prophesied that it will be. Its principle
has always practically prevailed in Scotland, and all
the witnesses who were examined before the com-
missioners recommended the abolition of denomina-
tional inspection. He considers that-.the bill now
before Parliament favours the Scotch practice with
regard to religious teaching.
