GERIIAY/.

The husband of the Princess Royal of England and his
not very juvenile father, King William, are of decidedly
frolicsome temperament. At a masked ball recently
given by the Crown Prince, the two royal personages left
the palace secretly and dressed elsewhere. The King's
figure is not particularly well adapted to disguise, but by
frequent changes of domino he succeeded in enjoying the
joke of being ordered about by his own police. On one
occasion, says the Daily Z'cws correspondent, after
be had quizzed a young countess beyond the bounds
of female curiosity, she suddenly made a snatch
at his mask, when to her own horror and the
King's amusement, she found herself confronted by
Majesty himself. Another rather ludicrous mistake
arose from the Prince of Montenegro and his suite appear-
ing in their national costume. Their picturesque toilet
was taken by the chamberlains for a fancy dress,
and they were at first directed to leave the room
assigned for princely personages, and to join the other
maskers.

Amid the noise of the dispute between Belgium and
France, and the angry feeling caused by Count Bismarck's
speeches in the Prussian Chamber of Deputies, it is satis-
factory to learn that in the Upper House of the Prussian
Legislature the Chancellor put forth a decidedly pacific
manifesto. The second of his speeches on the Sequestra-
tion Bill was marked by none of Count Bismarck's brusque,
not to say rude, expressions. It was in fact little less
than a friendly overture to France, and though the terms
were as vague as usual, they may prove not the less
valuable at a time when the old angry rivalry seems to
be reviving.
The Owl understands that the French and Prussian
Governments have now undertaken to use their influence
with the press of their respective States with a view to
the discontinuance of the acrimonious paper war which
has been raging so hotly between the journals of Paris and
Berlin. It is rather unfortunate, however, that at the
present moment, owing to the Belgian Railway affair, the
contest on the side of France has become more vehement
than ever.

AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE.

Mr. Williams, of the Broad-street Refuge, has
made public a most singular case. He states that an
orphan girl, not yet 14 years of age, has been arrested
and removed from the Girls' Refuge at Ealing to
Whitecross-street Prison, for a supposed debt of
£53 lls. 2d. Mr. Williams expostulated with
the attorneys who issued the execution, but
they laid the blame on their client. The governor of
the gaol said he had been there for thirty years, but
had never had such a case before. Mr. Williams
does not attempt to explain the extraordinary trans-
action, but says, with reason, that it is a scandal to
the law. Not the least singular part of the affair is
that so young a girl should be supposed to have
incurred such a debt.

THE HARTLEPOOL PETITION.

The Liberals appear to have made a fiasco at Har-
tlepool as great as any of the numerous ones made
by their opponents elsewhere. After having sub-
poenaed a large number of witnesses and given the
judge the trouble of going down to Hartlepool, the
petitioners suddenly withdrew from the case. The
public will be interested in knowing the particulars
of the arrangement.

MU. HANDEL COSSHAU AND HIS SUPPORTERS.
I Mr. Handel Cossham, the unsuccessful candidate
at Dewsbury, has: just been the hero of a greater
triumph than if he had won the election. He has
been feasted by his supporters, who, in addition, paid
the whole of his election expenses, £1,058, and pre-
sented him with a salver, and other presents. It was
remarked that Mr. Cossham, though defeated, was in
rather a better position than the elected of a neigh-
bouring borough (Mr. Ripley, of Bradford), who had
spent £lO,OOO in order to be elected, and a few
additional thousands in order to be turned out. Mr.
Cossham, in acknowledging the various presentations,
said he was really more the representative of the
Liberal electors than his successful opponent was,
or ever would be. The conduct of his friends
with regard to the costs of the election had placed
them in a very high place as a constituency. He
hoped it was a position that other constituencies
would be constrained to take. He had never been
sparing of his time or money in political matters,
and he was ready to have borne his full share of the
expenses in the late contest ; but he yet felt that the
course which had been taken was the right one.
When a constituency imposed heavy expenses upon
a candidate, they placed him in a very dangerous
position with regard to their interests. If a man
bought a seat, he would be very apt to sell a con-
stituency.

REMARKS.

The changes in atmospherical conditions since yesterday morning
have been slight, but readings shew greater uniformity than of late.
The decrease in pressure of yesterday appears to have moved in a
south-easterly direction, followed by a slight rise In the N. and W.
The reading at Rochefort is now 0.53 In. higher than that at Nairn.
The report from Biarritz to-day shews that there was an error in that
sent yesterday. Temperature has decreased somewhat, except in
Scotland and at Rochefort. The gales in the west have gone down.
and the wind has veered. Light W. to S.W. breezes are now general.
but at Valencia the wind has veered to N.N.W. Rain has fallen on
our S. coasts. The sky is cloudy or overcast this morning. The sea
is moderate. Drums lowered all round the coast.

4fELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.-SIX' MEN

DROWNED.

A very sad accident has occurred to a boat's crew con-
nected with the Calf Rock Lighthouse, near Dursey
Island, on the coast of Ireland. It appears that Mr.
Thomas O'Reilly, the head lightkeeper, and three other
men, had been at the lighthouse for the past month. On
the day named he signalled to tho main land for the
lightkeeper on shore (Richard Howard) to relieve him.
Howard at once assembled the boat's crow (six men)
and proceeded with them to the Calf Rock, but on
arriving there found it impossible to land, in conse-
quence of the heavy sea. However, he was able to
exchange mail bags, and, after remaining for about
twenty minutes, left without the slightest apprehen-
sion of danger. The poor fellows gave their comrades
on the rock one parting cheer, and then pulled for the
main land, which they were destined never to reach:
All appears to have gone on well with them till within
about a mile of Dursey Island, when the entire crew
were seen to have lost their oars. When the boat got
amongst the breakers, Mr. O'Reilly instantly hoisted
the signal flag on the lighthouse, in the hope of
attracting the notice of the people on Dursey Island,
but unfortunately without effect. For upwards of an
hour the boat was seen drifting with the tide. A sudden
shower obscured the view for about half an hour, and
then it was discovered that the boat was floating bottom
upwards. Of course every soul in the boat has been
drowned. The whole party were married men, most of
them with large families depending solely on thenf for
support, and one poor fellow bad only been married a few
days.

The offertories at St. Andrews, Wells-street, Lon-
_don, during 1868 were no less than £6,665.

PARIS, Feb. 18.

A circular of the Minister M. Forcade de la
Roquette, dated the 16th inst., has been published
to-day relating to the right of public meeting.
The circular says that until the present day the
Government considered it a duty to confine its
functions to vigilantly watching that no abuses of
the newly-granted liberty occurred, without even
interfering with those speakers who might discuss
matters legally prohibited. Nevertheless the Go-
vernment could no longer tolerate such contraven-
tions, and intends henceforth to suppress all licence,
and thereby separate from the right of free meeting
those excesses which could only have a compro-
mising tendency.

The Constitutionnel of to-day says The jour-
nals which have excuses for the attitude assumed
by Belgium apparently forgot the question of cour-
and which alone
would place the act in its true light."
tesy involved in the proceedings,

The Constitutionnel de,nonstrates that those pro-
ceedings are as unusual as they are galling, and
refutes the assertions of certain journals which
blamed the French
Government for feeling asto-
nished at it, and which even went so far as to deny
the existence of any public excitement or national
susceptibility on the subject.

The Constitutionet, on the other hand, gainsays
the exaggerated views held by the opposite side on
the matter in question, and contradicts those
organs of the press which regarded the above inci-
dent as a complete humiliation endured by France
at the hands of Belgium, and even considered a
rupture to be unavoidably imminent.

The Constitutionnel believes that the Belgian
Ministers will offer satisfactory explanations to the
French Government, that they will appeal to the
prudence of the Belgian people, and to their well-
understood interests, and thus counteract the
grievous consequences resulting from the law as
voted by the Chamber of Deputies, and now wait-
ing ratification by the Senate. The writer then
continues :—" We have little reason for doubting
the issue of this Belgian incident. Our national
feeling is sensitive, even irritable. Our great
French nation maintains a haughty attitude when-
ever it suspects malevolent designs, or fancies it
perceives—erroneously, perhaps—the sign of
foreign interference."

" But," the article concludes, " a matter like
the above cannot have the effect of disturbing the
peace of the world."

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,

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

LAW AND POLICE.

FATE= IGNATITIS AND nis MONKS.—At the Maryle-
bone Police-court, an extraordinary case was tried on
Wednesday. A youth, named Nobbs, who said he was a
student, was charged with stealing £l5 and with assault.
The prosecutor said he kept a small general shop, but, on
further examination, explained that he had been one of
Father Ignatius's monks, and that the prisoner had also
been one. They had gone about the country together
lecturing, and were now in partnership in the shop. The
prosecutor accused the prisoner of being a renegade,
and of showing him great ingratitude. The prisoner
accused the prosecuor of drinking and throwing I
£5 out of the window, so that he was obliged to take the'
money to take care of. The prisoner was remanded for a
week.

Mona THAN A HUNDRED TIMES IN CUSTODY.—A
woman, who has been more than a hundred times in
custody, was charged a (lay or two since, at Westminster,
with being drunk and incapable. She had been brought
up to the same court twice since Christmas. She was
fined 55., and declared that she had not a farthing to pay
it with.

LEGISLATING IN FUN.—A few days ago a
despatch was sent to the eastern papers from Chicago,
announcing that the Illinois House of Representatives had
passed a bill ceding the city of Chicago and the county of
Cook to Indiana. There was no intimation that the act
was not a serious one, but it was a joke perpetrated by
the House in mock session. At the same session a bill
was introduced which vested " all political, civil, and
social power, irrevocably, in the female portion of the
population abovs he., J.l.4ttLyeazi2

The Rochester people are in a state of chronic

of war, had become overwhelmingly heavy.

A correspondent of the Post writing from Crete highly
praises the activity and skill of Hobart Pasha. No
Englishman has previously held such high active command
in the Turkish navy, and so far the experiment has
produced the best results. Hobart Pasha has settled
the Greek blockade -.runners, and put an end to
the Cretan insurrection. More important still,
he has permanently improved the discipline and
organisation of the fleet under his command. The
lethargic Turks think him strict, but he is, nevertheless, a
great favourite both with the officers and the men. The
writer believes that the Porte could not do better than
give him supreme control at Constantinople. Such a
measure would speedily result in a really effective naval
fighting force. The Porte might do more, and get an
English officer to look after its army organisation. The
Turkish army is large enough, but it has none of the
proper necessaries, without which men are useless in these
scientific times.
