The Duke of Argyll return d to duty at the
India-office on Tuesday la, t. The &nu ward Mai/assumes
wo shall probably seen hear something regarding the
principles ui 031 which pr, scuts for the Duke of Edinburgh
are to be provided, as that little matter is before the Secre-
tary of State in Couucii.

The following telegram was received on Monday
at the India Office:—"Cable Ship, 29th Oct., 11.55 p.m.
Friday, midnight, cif Gay's Island. First half of
ceblo laid and buoyed. Tests perfect. Commenced second
half on Monday. Tweed leaves for Bombay immediately.
All well."

A sad case of poisoning has occurred at Leeds. A
young man, named James Chadwick, an apprentice to
Messrs. Reinhardt and Sons, chemists and druggists, Brig-
gate, having been suffering for two or three days from tic
doloreux, took a large doze of " Battle's solution of opium"
to allay the pain. The result was that ho foil into a deep
sleep, which terminated in his death.

The Rev: Henry White, the chaplain of the
Chapel Royal, Savoy:stated in his sermon on Sunday morn-
ing that a celebrated German theologian bad reckoned up
a thourand volumes which had been published during the
present century in opposition to the doctrine of the immor-
tality of the soul, and 10,000 contaiting vague speculations
on the subject.

The following general order has been promulgated
by the Adjutant-General of the Forces :—" Considerable in-
convenience having arisen from officers who have applied
to retire by the sale of their commissiona soliciting per-
mission to withdraw such application, the Field-Marshal
Commanding-in-Chief desires officers of the army to under-
stand that for the future except under very special and un-
foreseen circumstances, the application to retire, once sub-
mitted, will be acted upon."

To-day it may be said that the first results of the
Telegraphs Act visible to the public are being accomplished.
The United Kingdom Company will close its office in Leeds,
and transfer business to the Post Office in that busy
Northern town, and the Electric Company will do the
same in Leicester. Similar changes will shortly take place
in other towns. The United Kingdom Company are pre-
paring to move in the Post-offices at Bradford, Nottingham,
and Chesterfield, and other companies are making like pre-
parations in many places.

In March, 1868, William Deering, a boy of six-
teen, in the employ of Mr. Cartwright, law stationer,
Brownlow-street, London, was sent with a cheque for
£lO to get cashed at a bank* in Southampton-street.
He got the cash and absconded. Since then
he has wandered all over England and Wales
in search of employment without success. On Friday even-
ing he gave himself up to the Liverpool police, and stated
what he had done. He is son of a law clerk of Red Lion-
square, Holborn. He was brought up on Saturday at the
Liverpool Police-court and remanded.
Mr. G. Melly and Colonel Roden, the members for
Stoke-upon-Trent, have been called upon at a meeting of
their constituents for an explanation of their alleged com-
plicity in purchasing the retirement of Mr. Hartwell, the
working men's candidate, at the last general election. Both
honourable gentlemen denied all personal concern in the
transaction, which, it seems, was effected by friends of the
Liberal cause in Loudon; but they admitted having repaid
the money advanced to defray Mr. Hartwell's expenses.
This explanation was deemed so far satisfactory that a vot•
of approval was carried almost unanimously.

A Southern editor exclaims, " the magic of a
single word, ' Union,' lost us our Liberty !! Shall we let
the magic of another word, Coolie,' perpetuate our Degra-
dation ?" We do not quite understand what the Louisiana
man is driving at, but we have before us such an excellent
instance of what a word may do that we cannot help think-
ing with the editor that there sometimes is magic in it.
Here is the latest news from Washington, that is, to Oct.
15 :—" A Richmond paper having stated by mistake that
Secretary Boutwell had purchased this month $6,000,000
worth of ' bones,' instead of bonds,' the Secretary this
morning received a letter asking in good faith what was
being paid for bones in bulk, as he had a large amount on
hand."

Mr. Gibbs, the resident European agent of the
United States Treasury, has collected and arranged at his
official bureau, No. 60, Rue Neuvo, St. Augustin, Paris, the
laws of the United States and of all the separate States
of the Union, together with a large collection of elemen-
tary American law books, all of which he places at the
free disposal of his countrymen who may have occasion
to consult them. Such a collection for,reference has always
been needed in Europe. We believe this is the most
complete collection of American statutes and elementary
works on this side the Atlantic.
