The Dalmatia Observer brings us the minutes of
the4Conference of the Banat, which took place at Agram on
the 14th. The communal congregation and the municipal
council went immediately to the Governor, and, he being
absent, to the Vice-President, to express to him ♦erbally
the uneasiness felt by the citizens generally, and to ear-
nestly recommend him to support the petitions of the corar
mines praying that the country should not be united to
Croatia without previously taking the opinion of the Diet
of Dalmatia.

[ADVERTISEMINTI-It is with pleasure we notice the
increase of cures without medicine by Du Barry's delicious
Revalenta Arabica. We quote the following :—Cure No.
52,087—Field Marshal Duke of Pluskow, of a gastric in-
flammation of the stomach. Cure No. 51,614—Baron de
Polentz, Prefect of Langenau, of many years' horrible suf-
fering of the nerves and an obstinate constipation. Cure
No. 48,721—General Baron de Zaluskowski, of man years
fearful disorders of the digestive function. Cure No. 71,
of dyspepsia—The right honourable the Lord Stuart
de Decies. Cure No. 42,116—Major Edie of enlarge-
ment of the liver and total prostration of strength.
Avoid Pills and Medicines : they invariably aggravate and
perpetuate diseases ; their annoyance, disappointment,
and expense may be avoided by using Du Barry's Food
whioh, at a few pence per day, saves 5C times its cost in
other remedies, removing effectually, w.thout purging,

THE CITY WARDMOTES.

On Saturday the polling for candidates for seats
in the Court of Common Council of the city of Lon-
don began and ended in the few wards in which
the representation was contested, and in which a
poll had been demanded. The Lord Mayor pre-
sided from 10 o'clock until 4 at the poVing for the
ward of Langbourn, of which his Lorasnip is the
Alderman, and in which there was a brisk contest,
resulting in the return of Mr. Medwin, bootmaker,
a new candidate, along with deputy Unwin, and
Messrs. Webber, Sully, Snelling, Symonds, Howard,
and Crossley. ho represented the ward during the
past year, and the rejection of Mr. Bache, who had
sat nine years in the Council. In the ward of Cheap
the poll resulted in the return of Messrs Connell,
Fenning (deputy), Thorpe, Houghton, Stewart, and
Tegg, five of the old members; Messrs. Bennett
and Gibbins, new candidates; and in Mr. Barnes,
one of the old set, losing his seat. In Farringdon
Within the contest lay between Mr. Rudkin, who
sat last year, and Mr. Millard, Mr. Rudkin being
returned by a large majority, with his former col-
leagues, Messrs. Holt and Virtue (deputies),
Maclauchlan, Kelday, Dolland, C. Phillips, Young,
Reed, Glover, Wheeler, B. Barnard, Bengough, and
Morris. The contest for Farringdon Without re-
sulted in the rejection of Mr. Payne, who sat last
year, and the return of Messrs. G. Walter, Obbard
(deputy), Stanborough, Anderton R.N., ;Phillipps,
Cotterell, Lawley, Barnard, Butler, Ross, Scamell,
Bedford, Butcher, Langham, Harvey, and Pedler,
nearly all of whom previously represented the ward.
In the ward of Lime-street, Messrs. Cork (deputy),
Simpson, Symonds, and Harris, were returned ; Mr.
Wheatley withdrawing from the contest without
going to a poll. In Walbrook, Mr. T. Rowley was
elected in the place of Mr. Ford Hale (resigned),
who had represented it for the long period of 34
years. Various questions affecting the interests of
the citizens were mooted and discussed at the seve-
ral wardmotes, 25 in number, held on Friday and
Saturday. In that of Aldersgate Mr. Fowler
moved and carried a resolution recognising the ne-
cessity of erecting in the densely peopled parts of
the city, baths, washhouses, and model lodging
houses for the industrious poor. At all tke ward-
motes a memorial from the London Temperance
Association was read, praying them to contribute
towards the establishment of drinking fountains by
the imposition of a small ward-rate. At the ward-
mote of Billingsgate Mr. Overall, jun., and Mr.
Robertson called attention to the crying necessity.
for improving the approaches to the great metropo-
litan fish-market, and pressed the subject on the
consideration of the Corporation. In the meeting
for the ward of Coleman-street, Deputy Davies
alluded to a rumour of an attempt, in a future Cor-
poration Reform Bill, to reduce the, number of
Common Councilmen, which, he said, smacked of
the days of Toryism, and he objected to such a
project, besides, on the authority that " in the mul-
titude of counsellors there is wisdom." Corpora-
tion reform iii the wardmote of Bread-street was
designated by Mr. Maynard as a bugbear, and by
Mr. Smith as a piece of clap-trap to alarm the
citizens. The continually augmenting traffic in the
city thoroughfares and the necessity for its regula-
tion were also noticed. Mr. Tibbats and Mr. Hop-
good, in the wardmote of Bishopsgate, commented,
the former on the increase of street robberies, and
the latter on that of immorality, fostered by the
existence of houses of ill-fame. Dr. Abraham
carried a' resolution urging the Common Council
to make known, in the public interest, the condi-
tions on which the people may avail themselves of
the Act, recently passed, for preventing the
adulteration of articles of food and drink.
With respect to the vacancy in the office
of Alderman for the ward of Candlewick,
consequent on the recent death of Sir George
Carroll, a very numerously - signed requisi-
tion was presented to Mr. Dakin, the deputy of the
ward, on Saturday, inviting him to present himself
as a candidate, to:which he at once assented, and
his election is regarded as a matter of course from
the good repute in which he is held. In the Cord-
wainers' Wardmote, Alderman Salomons, M.P., in-
timated that the future appropriation of the coal
tax would be brought under the notice of Parlia
ment next session, and that in all probability an
Act for its renewal, with some modification, would
.pass the Legislature. The revenue from coals, he
added, would to some considerable extent likely be
applied to the embankment of the Thames, but he
expressed a hope that a portion of it would be ap-
propriated to general improvements, such as taking
off the toll upon bridges, which were now virtually
closed to the public, while the streets were crowded
to excess.

ST. GEORGE'S-IN-7BZ-EAST.

40-

(From the John Bull.)
We have received a copy of Mr. King's second
letter to the Bishop of London, just issued by Mr.
Masters, which is designed as "a public and solemn
protest" against the conduct of the bishop towards
its author and his parishioners, and resumes the
history of the St, George's riots from the point
where the other letter (reviewed in our columns of
April 14) left off; but as they are but too well
known to our readers, there can be no necessity
to recapitulate them. The interest of the letter
centres entirely is the account it gives of the cir-
cumstanceg under which Mr. King was induced
to leave his parish temporarily. The proposition
to leave was first made in May at Ely ; but by
whom is not distinctly stated, though, after a dis-
cussion with an eminent prelate, it was refused.
It was resumed in June by Dr. Stanley and Mr.
Hughes, who made the offer at the rectory, through
Mrs. King, that Mr. Hansard should take charge of
the parish during Mr. King's absence. Mr King
says :
" On July 2 I wrote to Mr. Hughes as follows
upon this subject:—
" You know something of the grounds which
forbid me from feeling confidence in the acts of the
bishop towards my church and its services, in the
event of my absence • but I have lately held a con-
ference with Dr. Phillimore, Messrs. Coleridge,
Prideaux, and Stephens (whose joint opinion upon
the entire case has been taken by the English
Church Union), and they all hold unanimously
that the so-called monitions of the bishop are not
worth the paper on which they are written.
" Under these circumstances I should of course
feel bound to resist the carrying on of any such
monitions, either to myself or to the churchwardens
in future, whilst Mr. Hansard might act otherwse.
Of course if he would engage to conduct the ser-
vices of my church precisely on their present foot-
ing, and,not make any alteration whatever without
my concurrence, this difficulty would be removed.
" Now, I must beg my readers to bear in mind
this point, which was indeed now the single obsta-
cle in the way of my accepting this offer. I was
resolved that I neither would nor could resign my
charge unless I should receive a distinct guarantee
upon this point."
Some unavoidable delays took place, but ulti-
mately Mr. Hughes submitted a sketch of an
agreement to be entered into between the rector
and Mr. Hansard :
" Upon the clause which made this agreement
binding for 12 months I made the following obser-
vation—' I object to this both on Mr. Hansard's
part and on my own—it is not fair to bind him by
this from accepting any other preferment, and for
myself I must require a power of returning at any
time before the expiration of 12 months, in the
event of the bishop requiring Mr, Hansard to break
this engagement. What is to prevent the bishop,
when my back is turned, from sending a so-called
monition to sweep away the choir or altar, or any-
thing else r
" Mr. Hansard met the above objection with re-
gard to himself ; and with respect to my own objec-
tion, Mr. Hughes assured me that ' such an act of
your lordship was quite impossible, because Dr.
Stanley had gained from you your reluctant con-
sent to the terms of the agreement in question,' and
that he (Dr. Stanley) was ready to sign this agree-
ment as witness (as he did a few days afterwards) ;
and on Mr. Hansard making a remark confirmatory
of this, I at once stated that all my difficulty about
resigning my charge into Mr. Hansard's hands was
removed, and that I was ready at any time to do so."
Mr. King, it appears, had a letter from the bishop,
dated Nov. 14, saying that he thought the time for'
peaceful concessions was come; when he.pbiltr himself
in communication with the rectors of u
neigh-
bouring parishes, viz., Stepney, ,
and Shadwell, asking them to advise WuPiu
linaPonthge
subject, as stated in our columns at the time, and obn_
the 16th ult. wrote to Mr. Hughes complaining
the tone of the bishop's letter, after he had
but re-
ceiving guar-
anteed to preserve the status Tu.() ; b
no answer, on the 23d he informed the
bishop that he must beg to decline entering upon
the question of concession of points of ritual._ Be-
fore, however, this letter was received, the bishop
issued fresh so-called monitions, which Mr. King
says, on the highest legal authority, are waste
paper.
A letter from Mr. King, in which he de-
clines nominating a curate, and leaves the provision
of his services in the bishop's hands, is published.
