OBITUARY.

Major-General Ormsby, Lieutenant-Governor of
the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, has died
after a very short illness. He was in his usual
good health in the afternoon of Tuesday, and
had ordered his horse for the purpose of going
out, when he was suddenly seized with paralysis,
from which he never raffled. He expired at five o'clock
on Wednesday morning, at the Governor's house,
Royal Military Academy. Owing to this sad event
the sitting of the commission appointed to assemble
this week for the purpose of considering and report-
ing on the propriety of amalgamating Sandhurst with
the Royal Military Academy has been postponed.

The death of the Rev. Samuel Edward Walker, D.D.
rector of St. Columb, is announced. Dr. Walker,
many years ago, offered to give up the income of his
living, which was over £1,500 a year, towards the
endowment of a Bishopric of Cornwall, on the con-
dition that he was made the first bishop. The offer
was not accepted, the Church lost a golden opportu-
nity of extending its influence in the extreme
West of England, and Dr. Walker, unfortu-
nately for both him and the Church, entered into
building speculations in the West of London. He
began to erect some fine terraces and squares in
; but, as is not unusual with amateurs,
got so seriously embarrasSed that he not only lost a
very large private fortune but had to surrender the
income from his living. It is not stated where he died,
but he had to live abroad for some years though
latterly he had been residing in England. He gradu-
ated at Trinity College, Cambridge, in 183 -

LORD SHAFTESBURY'S bill for the regulation of
ecclesiastical law procedures is a comprehensive but
moderate measure, and is likely to form part of the
successful legislation of the year. It embodies all
that is necessary to place the laws affecting the
discipline of the clergy on a better footing, and
yet the task undertaken is chiefly one of con-
solidation. The changes made are comparatively
few, and only such as have been found absolutely ne-
cessary. The ecclesiastical tribunals will remain
substantially the same as at present, and will preserve
jurisdiction over the same class of offences. The
diocesan courts are to be presided over by
the bishop, and, subordinately, his chancellor
—the law officer appointed by an Act
of HENRY reign to assist the bishop
in questions of ecclesiastical law. These dio-
cesan courts will retain the same jurisdiction as at
present. They will retain their power of deciding
matter-of-fact questions affecting tithes, the payment
of ecclesiastical du es to the clergy, spoliation—unjustly
taking the benefice of one incumbent and conferring it
upon another, dilapidation of church buildings, and
all charges against clergymen of immorality or other
breaches of the ecclesiastical law. Besides them dio-
cesan tribunals, there are the courts of the Provinces
of Canterbury and York, to which appeal can be
made on the request of the bishop. The provincial
courts will have full jurisdiction to revise the deci-
sions of the diocesan tribunals, and they will be pre-
sided over by the Archbishops ; but the Act makes a

A STRIKE LN TIIE COTTON TRADE.

On Wednesday the long-threatened strike in the
cotton trade actually took place. The operatives in
those mills at Preston which had received notice for
a reduction of 10 per cent. left work at noon. At
twenty-three other firms the reduction is not
due for three weeks, but unless some
speedy arrangement be come to, the operatives
employed in them will also strike. Some thousands
are already idle, and great excitement exists, though
the town is peaceable. A proposal to submit to
arbitration has been made to the masters, but they
have as yet returned no answer. It is thought that
they will object to it on the grounds that, even with
the reduction of 10 per cent., many of them would
be no gainers, and that they must know their own
affairs better than anybody else.

SPAIN.

Strange as it may appear, the account of the riots in
Spain is the most satisfactory news that has been received
from that country for some time past. The attitude of
the Republican party in the Cortes had previously given
rise to much apprehension. The minority undoubtedly
strove to compensate for its small proportions by the vigour
of its opposition. It assailed the Government on every
practicable question, and it has been even feared that in
case of a king being elected, the Republicans would with-
draw from the H u-e and commence a civil war. These
sinister forebodings have been signally falsified. During
the last few days the policy of abolishing conscription for
the army has been debated in the Cortes, the Government
and the Republicans taking opposite sides. But dissen-
sion has vanished on the appearance of a common peril.
Popular disturbances against conscription, the erection of
barricades, fatal riots, and general danger to public order
have united all parties. The Republicans have joined the
Monarchists in the common cause of preserving order, and
a resolution to support the Government in this respect
has been passed without a dissentient. The disturbances
have been somewhat serious, but far more important is
the spirit of patriotism which they have called forth.

On one of the spurs of the Blue Ridge, called "Bushey
Mountain," near the intersecting line of the counties of
Wilkes and Alexander, says a Now York paper, there
lived a religiously fanatical family, consisting of James
Land, his wife, daughter, and two sons. From some cause,
unexplained, a quarrel arose between the sister and one
of the brothers, resulting in a deadly hatred, which
made the girl leave the house through fear, and to
which she did not return until about midnight. Upon
reaching the door and attempting to open it, she was
met by her brother, and on attempting to enter the: ?toils°,
was shot by him and instantly kil!ed, Whatever demo-
niacal spirit could have taken possession of the fratricide
seems to Lava been immediately infused into the other
brother, the father and mother, all of whom then collected a
largo pile of wood, which they fired, and upon which they
consumed the body of the murdered sister until not a
vestige remained to testify to the crim,.. A few days
afterwards the absence of the sister being discovered, and
no satisfactory account being given of her by her
relatives, suspicion became excited, and soon evidence
sufficient of her brutal murder transpired to cause the
arrest and confinement in gaol of all the remaining
members of the family. They were locked in the
sarno cell in the gaol at Taylorsville, in Alexander
county ; and on Friday night the father and two sons mur-
dered the wife and mother, thus adding another to the
horrible crimes already committed. Next morning
when the body of Mrs. Land was found by the jailor,
cold and stark, and mutilated in a most revolting and
disgusting manner, the wretches, father and sons, coolly
confessed the murder, as well as the murder of the sister.
It is believed they are insane, and for fear another murder
might bo added to the list, the father was placed in a cell
apart from the sons.
