HANOVER.

It is noteworthy that the semi-official Peter'i of Paris,
being no longer able to assail Belgium with decency,
is directing its waste journalistic steam against
Prussia. A few days ago it announced that the
visit of King William to Hanover was postponed solely
because hostile demonstrations on the part of the populace
were to be apprehended. The official and officious paper
now states that the journey has been abandoned altogether,
and for the same reason. The Patric likewise exults in
the thought that Prussia is getting into financial difficul-
ties with her army expenses, and that a new loan will
soon be necessary. It is certainly a bad thing for Prussia
to copy the example of France in this respect.

THE ASSASSINATION AT LEGHOBN.
The name of the assassin who murdered the Austrian
Consul at Leghorn, in mistake for General Crenneville,
is Negro. It is stated that after the capture of the town
in 1849, the father and brother of this man were shot by
order of General Crenneville. Negro himself was flogged
with the bleeding corpses of his relatives before his eyes.
Hence the attempt at vengeance. Other persons impli-
cated in the murder had also suffered an iznominioui
beating.
THE LORD-LIEUTENANT OF IRELAND.
It is reported that Earl Spencer has resigned the
Irish Viceroyalty, and that he is coming to England
immediately. This is rather awkward news for the
Ministry just now that they are introducing their
Irish Church Bill into the Upper House. If his
lordship dissents from the Irish policy of the
Government either because he knows what it
it is and disapproves of it, or because he does
not know and thinks tilt., country ought to know, the
" Cave," which undoubtedly exists in the Peers, and
which has for chief occupant Lord Westbury, will
receive an addition as formidable, though for diffe-
rent reasons, as Mr. Lowe was in the Commons'
" Cave "of 1866. Mr. Lowe's antagonism was sup-
posed to be due partly to his exclusion from the
Russell-Gladstone Administration; but Earl Spencer
will have voluntarily resigned an important post
in the Ministry because of his disapproval of
the Ministerial policy. This fact will more than
compensate for the inferiority of the Peer's oratory
as compared with the Commoner's. As Earl Spencer
is not an Irish landowner he cannot be suspected of
thinking too much of his personal interests.

DR. RUSSELL AND THE PRINCE OF

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

JUNE 1, 1869.
Sett,—My attention has just been directed to a
passage in your paper of May 31, in which it is
said I made a precise statement somewhere or other
that I wrote the speeches of his Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales at the dinner of the Royal Geo-
graphical Society. My very words in uttering this
assertion are given, and "theamusing but not always
discreet" gentleman, on whose authority you quote
the story from the Elgin Courant, must apparently
have been present on the occasion, for he throws in
a dash of local colour and a bit of character meant
to be convincing to his readers., The " amusing
gossip" is, however, an absolute falsehood. I never
did anything of the kind; I hope it is therefore
needless to say I never said anything of the kind.

Your obedient servant,
W. HOWARD RUSSELL.

[The report was quoted by us, as Dr. Russell
himself has remarked, upon the authority of the
correspondent of the Elgin Courant. We are glad
to have brought the idle rumour thereby to the
knowledge of the former, seeing that it has afforded
him the opportunity of giving to it this emphatic
contradiction.—En. The Sun.]

FOREIGN NOTES.
-** TIM ALABAMA CLAM.
Mr. Francis Mucks, who for many years officiated iff
the administration of Canada, adds his contribution to the
voluminous literature called forth by Mr. Sumner's speech.
In a letter to the Daily News ho discusses the Clarendon-
Johnson treaty with considerable force, and proves pretty
clearly that, as has been before suspected, we have much
reason to rejoice at the rejection of the unfortunate
protocol which Mr. Suinriii .so roughly handled. The
general principle of negotiation followed by the British
Government was that all pecuniary claims arising
out of the depredations of the Alabama and other cruisers
might safely be submitted to arbitration,' but that tho
honour of this nation would not allow of foreign judg.
ment upon the Queen's proclamation. It was, however,
extremely doubtful whether the treaty concluded by Mr.
Reverdy Johnson did not contain a clause under which
damages might be claimed for the so-called premature
recognition of belligerency. Mr. llincks invites inspe7.-
tion of the treaty. Article 1 pros ides for the reference of
All claims, "including the eo-called Alabama claims,"
which have been pm:sell( ed and which remain unsettled.
This is in strict accordance with the preamble ; but it
proceeds—" as well as any other such claims which may.
be presented witliin the time specified in Article 3;"
that is, within six months from the day of the tint
meeting of the commissioners, who may extend the time,
still further. If the treaty had been ratified, every men,
chant or shopowner in the United States might have pre-
sented claims for losses consequent on the proclamation of
belligerency, and there can be little doubt that such
claims would have been recognised by the United States,
and repudiated by the British commissioners. It would
then have been necessary to resort to an umpire, to decide .
as to the construction of the treaty. Now, if the two
Parties were unable to agree upon an umpire, the treaty
provided that each should choose one, and then the final
choice should be decided by lot. So that, after all, the
reference of the great question which we so indignantly
refused to refer—the recognition of the South's belliger-
ency—depends upon the tossing up of a halfpenny.
It is plain that Mr. Seward accepted the treaty because
he foresaw that the belligerency question might be brought
in by this clause. And yet Mr. Sumner advocated the
•
rejection by the Senate because, in his opinion, the
damages arising from the recognition of the South were not
provided for. According to Mr. Hindu's reasoning, they
were providcd for but too well; and we may thank our
stars for Mr. Sumner's kindness in rejecting an agreement
which admitted more than was intended. Whether the
belligerency question ever will be submitted to an arbiter
is a question which should not, as we have previously
argued, be decided too hastily. But if we do concede this
much, we ought to make the admission with our eyes
oven.

We have happily escaped from the severest May
on record for many years. In London the closing
days of the month were much colder than the
opening days of February. In Scotland the
thermometer fell to 30 deg. during Friday night.
Early on Saturday the fields around Edinburgh were

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1869.

A long-cherished day• dream of our own, we have
now, at length, the happy prospect of seeing realized.
The hunting ground of the Hudson's Bay Company
is at last about to be opened up to the influences of
modern civilization. Hitherto it has been closed
alike against civilization and against colonization. It
is still actually in the bands alone of the trappers
in the service of the Great Fur Company, and
in the possession of the Red Indian Aborigines.
Virtually, as the foremost Statesman of our day has
very aptly expressed it, the Hudson's Bay Company
has warned off all trespassers from the vast dominion
confided to them, up to this time, by Royal Charter—
has warned them off,so to speak,by a board emblazon, d
with the significant characters, "Ni) Thoroughfare!"
An end has been brought at length, however, to this
monstrously, absurd monopoly. henceforth the
-Government and Parliament of Canada, the-Govern-
ment and Parliament of our newly-organized North
American Confederation, will have devolving upon

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1869.

A long-cherished day, dream of our own, we have
now, at length, the happy prospect of seeing realized.
The hunting ground of the Hudson's Bay Company
is at last about to be oi:etted up to the influences of
modern civlizition. hitherto it has been closed
alike against eiviliz ition and against colonization. It
is still an tially in the holds alone of the trappers
in the scrvics of the Great Fur Company, and
in the possession of the Red Indian Aborigines.
Virtually, as the foremost Statesman of our day has
very aptly exi ressed it, the Iludson's Bay Company
has warned off all trespassers from the vast dominion
confided to them, up to this time, by Royal Chat ter—
has warned them off,so to speak,by a board emblazon& d
with the significant characters, "No Thoroughfare!"
An end has been brought at length, however, to this
monstrously absurd monopoly. Henceforth the
Government and Parliament of Canada, the Govern-
ment and Parliament of our newly-organized North
American Confederation, Will have devolving upon

THE IRISH CHURCH BILL.

This bill wits brought in by Earl URANVILLE, read
a first time, and the second redding was fixed for the 14th
inLtant.
Their lordships shortly afterwards adjourned.-

HOUSE OF COMMONS—LAST EVENING.
The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock.
PARK-LANE IMPROVEMENT BILL.

On this bill being further considered,
The Marquis of HAMILTON moved the insertion of
the following clause, " That the Park-lane Improvement
Bill be recommitted to the former committee, in order that
a clause might be inserted declaring that the lessees and
occupiers of property in Hamilton-place were within the
provisions of the filth section of the Lands Clauses
A,•t, 1845. with resnoct to land injuriously
affected."

Mr. BOUVERIE, as Chairman of the Committee on
Private Bills, opposed the motion. The clause had been
rej cted by the committee on the ground that the proprie-
tors and owners of houses in Hamilton-place should not
be treated differently to other owners of property.
Mr. STANSFELD said it appeared to the Govern-
ment that a diAincti,,n should be drawn between the
Crown as a landlord and others, but the Government bad
come to the conclusion to leave the matter to be dealt with
by the house.
Mr. TIT E said it was thought by the Metropolitan
Board that to introduce into a private bill exceptional
legislation would be highly dangerous.
Mr. BALL supported the insertion of the clause.

Mr. LOCKE did not think the aristocratic residents IA
Hamilton-place had the right to ask for exceptional legis-
lation in their favour, when such a proposal by the more
common people would be looked upon as a piece
of presumption. 'The ratepayers had already been
burdened enough, and it was too much to ask that they
should be further pressed for the benefit of the Crown
and the fashionable residents in Hamilton-place. If the
clause was not withdrawn he should give his vote
against it.
Mr. HENLEY thought it would be wise to withdravt
the clause ; h_t could not give his assent to it.
The clause was negatived without a division.
VISIT OF THE VICEROY OF EGYPT.

Mr. GT WAY, in reply to Mr. Gourley, said the Go-
vernment had received intimation that it was the inten-
tion of his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt to visit this
country about the 22d of this month, and arrangements
would be made to give his Highness a suitable reception
upon his arrival in this country. (Hear, hear.)

THE. SPEAKER UPON nonsr.s.

Mr. J. Evelyn Denison is concerned about the
English breed of horses. Not about the useless
racehorse, which has caused so much discussion of
late, but about the real old English horse, the farmer's
riding horse, which has declined so much since rail-
ways have been the fashion. The half-bred stock
for road and hunting fisid threatens to become
altogether extinct. Before the invention of railways,
every farmer kept a horse to carry him to markets
and fairs. Now, thousands of farmers have
laid aside their riding horses, and trust mainly to
railways for means of locomotion. Can anything be
done (Mr. Denison as'. s) to stimulate this reviving
interest ? The means, to be successful, must, he
says, be simple. He would have no f:eith in joint-
stock companies or any epensive operations. The
effort should be a combined effort of proprietors and
occupiers. The Speaker, therefore, suggests that
gentlemen interested in the subject should meet
ttogether and form an association, and agree

THE " P.N.A." ON MS DEFENCE.
Sir Francis Grant writes to the Times, in reply to
Lord Ribblealale's letter, saying that the rejection of
his lordship's picture could not be due from any
" want of graciousness " on the part of the Hanging
Committee, since the names of the artists are
not
known, and pictures are rejected upon their own
demerits. Sir Francis says nothing to his lordship's
other charge, that be—the president of the Royal
Academy—had eight huge pictures, the ina:dinum
allowed to him, at a time when hundreds of other
good pictures were rejected for want of room,

coNscrExer, MONEY.

Mr. Lowe lamented, in making his financial
statement, that the legacy duty had fallen so short
during the past year because of the obstinate vitality
of millionaires. Ile has, however, his compensation.
A Thornton does not die every year, but nearly
every day now the Board of Inland Revenue has the
pleasure of announcing the receipt of £lOO as " con-
science money," on account of income tax. As
every £lOO represents :Q4,000, it is clear that a good
many persons have been over-modest about their
incomes. It is curious to notice how contagious the
present frankness appears to be.

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 i hat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed

PEACE POLICY OF THE AMERICAN GOVEI!NMENT.

The evidence that Mr. Motley has arrived in
England to carry out a policy of peace accumulate'
rapidly. The new Ambassador's speeches are quite
as reassuring as Mr. Reverdy Johnson's, though
undoubtedly far more temperate. All intelligence
from the other side of the Atlantic shews that the
American Government is equally anxious to avoid
war, and that state of doubt and anxiety which is
scarcely less disastrous than war. On the
18th of May a telegram from Washington, inspired
by the State department, was published at Phila-
delphia. It announced that "no one in executive
and diplomatic circl*s apprehends serious difficulties
with England." The .Acw York Times says that
the " President has spoken his mind pretty freely
about the manner in which foreign affairs are con-
sidered by the Senate, and in a way not at all com-
plimentary to that body." It is added that the English
Embassy had, up to the day of rejecting the
Alabama treaty, positive assurances that it would be
postponed until December. With these facts before
them, it is claimed that the rejection of the treaty
was the effect of temporary excitement, and not the
exhibition of cool, dispassionate statesmanship.
The Times Philadelphia correspondent says that
the instructions carried away by Mr. Motley were
very voluminous, and represented the moderate
views of the Secretary of State, and not the extra-
vagant demands of Senator Sumner. The question
of England's moral responsibility for the results of
her neutrality proclamation of May 1861 is still in-
sisted on, however, as a proper subject for reference
to arbitration, and if it is decided against England,
the United States will present for payment by
England the damages decided to result therefrom.
London, England, 1869-06-02

WESTMINSTER.

A DESPERADO.—CharIes Bastuble, frequently convicted
of assaults on the police, was charged with wilfully da-
maging a coat and assaulting the police.
James Brook, formerly a police constable who was
severely injured while in the force, said he was going
through Spriug-gardens, Pimlico, when the prisoner ac-
costed him and tore his cout, sating that he would smash
him for the last time (when he had two months for as-
saulting Brook). He followed and gave Lim in charge.
Sergeant George Lewis, 1 B, said he was called by
Brook, and went to apprehend the prisoner, who got
through a window. He followed and took him into cus-
tody, and then prisoner said if ho, Brook, went away he
would gp with the sergeant. Directly Brook went aw..y
prisoner turned on witness, and they had a scuff) and fell ;
prisoner bit him on the thumb, the crowd threw brickbats,
and witness was sore all over, and could hardly move from
blows and kicks; he stuck to prisoner, and when another
constable, Card, 116 B, came (who was also assaulted), they
got the prisoner to the station.
Card, 116 B, corroborated; he had to use his staff re-
peatedly on prisoner's logs and arms to keop him quiet..
Remanded for a week, the case to be sent to the sessions
bail in £lO being required. .
