Lawrence, Jewry, and sails on that day week. Dr.
Turner, who is the son of the late Lord Justice
Turner, succeeded Dr. Sawyer, who was accidentally
drowned in crossing a river.
It should be said to the credit of the Bishop of
Sierra Leone, whose return to England we lately
announced, that he has remained out in his unhealthy
diocese for a much longer time than any of his pre-
decessors remained. He has filled the see, in fact,
since 18CO3 a lengthened period for such a climate as
the West Coast of Africa.
Among the subscribers to the defence fund of the
Rev. Clarks Voysey are Professor Jowett and the
Dean of Westminster ; so that Lord Amherley finds
himself in good company.
According to the RecOd,the Bishop of Oxford has
proposed in the Ritual Commission that no caange
should be made in any rubric without consent of
Convocation ; but the right reverend prelate was
left without any supporter.
The Bishop of Norwich has recently appointed the
Rev. H. Groome Archdeacon of Suffolk, in the place
of Bishop Ryan, who has resigned in order to take
charge of the practically bishopless diocese of Win-
chester. ArAdeacon (frame has caused some
e:citemeut in the diocese by refusing to hold his
v:sitation in the church of St. Mary-le-Tower,
4swich, because of the " pronounced " ritual of the
services there. It is stated that a judge, when on the
assizes lately, refused to enter the church again for
the same reason.

TUE RATEPAYERS AND TUE PERMISSIVE BILL.

The Beehive, the organ of the trades unions, has an
article on the Permihive Bill, which is especially
interesting from the fact that it appears in a journal
devoted to the interests of the working classes. The
article is also of great interest in itself. It
begins by pointing out that "the broad princi-
ple" of this bill is that "the ratepayers of a parish
are fully entitled by themselves or their representa-
tives to be its licensers." It then goes on to say that
in this matter the upper classes are as much inte-
rested as the working classes, for " when gentlemen
in Parliament talk of education as a preventive of
intemperance, they only exhibit their own unhappy
or wilful ignorance of society." The article next
chews that whereas the increased number of . tailors'
shops in a locality would not lead to an improper
expenditure upon clothes, an increased number of
public-houses does lead to an improper expendi-
ture upon drink ; and even from a moderate drinker's
standpoint, all such superfluous expenditure is waste;
in other words, " the licensed increase of temptations
is extravagance." Unfortunately extravagance is
only a small part of the evil. Undue consumption
of drink leads to pauperism and crime, and thus the
whole community becomes injuriously affected by
our licensing. But, as the Beehive points out :
"The industrial, manufacturing, and mercantile classes
have, however, a more urgent quarrel with the present
system. If 60 to 70 million pounds be annually expended
on intoxicating drinks, and if even the moderate
users of them say that 20 to' 30 millions would be
rather extravagant, we have 40 millions squandered,
from any proper point of view, and 60 millions
gone from the correct view. This expenditure employs
certain number of the people in the manufacture and cir-
culation of these commodities ; but if a family expend five
shillings weekly in this way, and other five shilings in
clothes, books, furniture, metal goods, or any comforts or
necessaries of existence, they will pay amongst the first
five shillings one only for labour, among the second five
four for labour, including profit with wages."

_ .
Assuming that two-thirds of the alcoholic drinks
now consumed are uselessly drunk, there is a waste
of 40in illions sterling, which is sr; fricient to give honest
support to 2,500,000 persons. Another matter is the
horrible waste of Lod which goes on in the conver-
sion of grain into alcohol. Finally, the Beehive
declares that it does not greatly care what form legis-
lation assumes, provided the licensing power be taken
from the present holders of it, especially the Inland
Revenue Board, and put into the hands of the rate-
payers. Trade unions are, therefore, exhorted to use
their influence with members of Parliament, in order
to convince them of the importance which their
working-class constituents attach to this question.
This is one of the most sensible things ever done by
the trade unions.

1869.

when they saw that no was tanng precautions
would immediately prevent them from touching
the wrecked property. But they would have
their revenge. The receiver had to re-
ascend the gully—a task difficult enough to
experts and still more difficult to a novice, especially
with a badly-wounded hand. They determined that
lie should never ascend at all. They got three granite
boulders, and running these down the gully, hoped
to strike down the man who had prevented their
taking the spoil. Happily he avoided them, and is
able to give information which, it is to be hoped, will
tead-to the apprehension of the men. It would seem
that the highlanders of the northern coast have im-
proved very little since Scott wrote " The Pirate."

Secretary Ilout Well t,as liven notica that the in-
tetest-'conpons, parable on the Ist July next, will
he paid on presentation to the prover offices, upon
a rebate of interest at the rate of six per cent. per
annum. The last offer lately made by the Treasury
to anticipate the payment of interest was largely
taken advantage of by the mercantile community,
and tended to give a little ease to a very tight
money market, though only by anticipating funds
not due, which but tends to help the inflation and
furnishing ready means of living beyond income. -
New York has ratified the Fifteenth Constitu-
tional Amendment, which makes 21 States up to the
departure of the mail ; the others being Maine, Mas-
.sachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, West Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama,
Tennessee, Florida, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, lowa, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada,
Arkansas, Louisiana, and Kansas. It is considered
now to be almost beyond the possibility of defeat.
It will not be news to our readers to learn that
a junction is announced as having been formed of
the Union Pacific and Central Pacific Railroads at
Promontory Point, Utah, and it was expected that
the through line would be completed by to-day.
'Whether the grand demonstrations so long talked
of will come off on the.happy event of opening the
road we cannot tell, but we do not suppose that the
late acrimonious contention in the Courts of New
York, and the struggle in the Capitol at Washing-
ton, has encouraged the directors in their hospit-
able intent.
The Atlantic and Great Western Railway shoWs.
by the. violent fluctuations in its stock its connec-
tion with the Erie Railway. The Erie has a re-
markable habit of jumping up and down, which
surprises people as a " Punch and Judy" showman
surprises a child by his dancing a figure while the
strings be pulls are concealed. These securities in
the London market appear to be danced much in
the same way by operators in New York working
through the wires which lie under the ocean. The
holders of the property ought not to believe any
rumour, or to notice any fluctuation ; but if Messrs.
Fisk and Gould's. operations disturb their minds,
they should avail themselves of an opportunity to
sell out.

Senator Ross, of Kansas, has quarrelled with the
President over an appointment. He called on the
President to give him a slice of his mind, but Gene-
ral_ Grant•persked in sending in his own selection
for the Postmastership at Lawrence. Mr. Ross
repaid him by getting it rejected in the Senate,
and in executive ses,ion he asserted that the selection
of a postmaster for a S •nator's own town belonged
by usage and courtesy to the Senator, a view the
Chamber sustained, only 8 votes being cast in the
negative. A. J. Ricks also was rejected as Pension
Agent at Knoxville, Tennessee, through the
who stated that he was
inter-
vention of Senator Brownl.m,
personally objectionable to hits. This shows the drift
of Senatorial nsurpati-)n, and the reasons why they
so tenaciously held to the Tenure-of-Office Act.
Indeed, some openly atim that of-right the patron-
age of the Federal appointments in each State
belong to in two Senators, which would really bear
out the proud boast of Senator Sumner, " We are
the Government," which may yet become as cele-
brated a saying as Louis the Fourteenth's exclama-
tion, E Etat, c'est
Murders are the order of the day in

draw off all bad humours. A few atrocious mur-
ders have been committed of- late ; the Mayor of
Cork made a speech at an entertainment to Warren
and Costello which, if truly reported, has a strong
smack of sedition ; and Prince Arthur was the
centre of a free fight in Derry, as the apprentice
boys availed themselves of his presence to make
Protestant demonstrations, which excited the wrath
of their Roman Catholic fellow-townsmen. A col-
lision occurred, revolvers and carbines were used,
and some men killed.

Last Thursday, in the House of Commons, Mr.
Dilke asked the Under-Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether his attention had been
called to a teleghiu dared Shanghai, March 31,
and published in the London newspapers, in which
it was stated that in a despatch from Sir Ruther-
ford Alcock to the British Consul at Shanghai the
former says, that " the Government at Pekin Shows
no wish for progress according to Western ideas
and desires, but, on the contrary, will not yield to
the introduction of any such projects, except un-
_der pressure and coercion ;" and whether such a de-
spatch from her Majesty's Minister in China to a
consul had been publish:Al by the authority of the
Foreign-office ? Mr. Otway said the telegram had
not been authorised by her Majesty's Government,
and he doubted whether it was founded on fact.
Papers relating to China would be laid upon the
table shortly.
A letter from Mr. Reverdy Johnson to Lord
Clarendon has lately been published, not only on
his own behalf, advocating cheaper oceanic postage
between the United States and the United King-
dom, but enclosing a letter from Mr. Seward, when
Secretary of State, dated 21st January, wherein he
asserts that this was urged on England by
vernrnent when the preselm Convention was being
negotiated, but that her Britannic Majesty's Minis-.
ters then declined to entertain it. Mr. Sumner. be-
lieves that much good would accrue to both nations,
and a great increase of correspondence ensue, if the
rates were materially lowered.
The nomination of Eli S. Parker as Commis-
• sioner of Indian Affairs bas been confirmed. Gene-
ral Grant wants to let the Quakers try their band
at this mission of peace, and Parker, who is an
Indian Chief and was a colonel on his Staff, is
selected to aid in this good work. Delegations
from Philadelphia have had interviews with the
President on the subject, but Grant is well 'aware
that the honest expenditure of the money voted by
Congress for the Indians is what is most needed.
Eighty per cent. is said to be retained by the Indian
ring," the " odd " twenty only reaching the
Indians in whisky and articles to them useless,
adulterated in the highest degree. Between the
promises contained in the treaties and the per-
formances there is a remarkable discrepancy, which
is not the fault of •Congress, but of the Indian
agents, a fertile cause of discontent %%hid.' has bad
no small share in the c )nstant outbreaks. A cam-
mission of eleven, distinguished for philanthropy
and intAlligence, will be appointed by the President
as the Act provides to emsult on these affairs
vvi!lt the Secretary of the Interior.

I One of those charming appointments which did
so much to bring Andrew Johnson into favour has
lately produced fruit, now being gathered in a Wash-
ington Court. Mr. Perry Fuller, who had been an
Indian agent, was made Collector of the port of
New Orleans. The present suit is brought by
' General Thomas Ewing, jun., for a share withheld
of the profits on various jobs. A letter from Fuller
to Ewing was read in Court, dated from New
Crleans 25th Jan. last. Fuller therein says that
wow() lu. fixed up right when
.the aprropriations
for the contracts in which they were interested
' were made. He then proposed to prnceed to Wash-
ington, and t.) close on the House, but the mean-
time he puts Ewing up to a " big" thing, in which
he purposes to place him and Huntingdon. All
required was to get a bill endorsed by Congress to
pay the interest on State Bonds for levee purposes.
Ewing is then informed that he let a good thing slip
in not appearing in the wine cases as Fuller advised
him. I?e desires to get Colonel Casey appointed
in his flace, when he would remain at New Orleans
and have a bank ior a fine business, and he would
place in E,%ing's hands all the Custom House

Claims and toils, ready money transactions. Casey
was among the first appointments made by General

•
I Grant, -but it is asserted that his name was thus
used by Fuller without authority, and to convey
a false impression.
General Banks is the chairman of the Sub Com-
mittee now investigating the Paraguayan affairs,
-in which Messrs. Washburne, Bliss, Masterwatt,
and President Lopez were mixed up as well as the
United States naval officers. Admiral Davis had
not arrived, hut Secretary Fisk had subbiirted a
counnui:icatior received from the Chargé d'Affaires
at Rio relating to these events. It contained docu-
ments concerning the fate :nd inhuman treatment
by Lopez of 720 prisoners, of wl ow many were
foreigners, giving details of the manner in which
the s,ntetices of death were executed, the dates, and
number on each day, making a total. of 521 lanced,
shot, and tortured. The Allies arc s ti.l to be in •
the neighbourhood of Lopez's stron;lhold in the
mountains; and if Count D'Eu, the newly-ap-
pointed Commander-in-Chief, captures Lopez, we
hope he will send him before General B ,nks, %vim
will take means to extract his evidence, and the
opportunity of delivering to him a high-toned lecture
liberty and morality.
The grand jury of the United States Cirouit.
Court, in session at St. Louis, found an indictment
against General Burbridge, of Kentucky, for
bribery as a Revenue officer, summoning him from
Washington to appear before the Court. This bri-
bery is a long whispered s'ory, and appears to have
been in circulation when s weral United States Se-
nator recommended General Bumbridgefor the iiu-
portant post of Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
Next year the census of the 'United States will
be taken, and preparations have been and are
being made to render it as complete as possible.
The House Sub-Committee, consisting of five Se-
lected members, will make a summer tour, taking
New York, Pennsylvania, Boston, Uincinmitii'and
Chicago, and wherever else the spirit moves them to
go, at Uncle Sam's expense. There they will it4ite
information, take evidences and gather every useful
fact bearing on their subject, which includes the •
resources as well as the growth of •the country.
They will thus come into communication with the
different statistical societies, nor will they c -mfine
research wholly to. the States. *A commis-
sion is to be sent, but not at Uncq'Sam's expense,
to the National Statistical Congress which meets this
summer a- the Hague; but though the two or three
gentlemen selected will have to pay their own ex-
penses, they will be recommended by the Committee,
appointed by the President, and represent the
United States.
Postmas'er Creswell will have enough .to do
before he gets his department into order. During
February the New York Observer received infor-
mation of 24 different letters being poste-1 to its
address containing money, amounting in the aggre-
ga. eto $127, but not one reached the offico. 1. he
Boston Congregationalist took up this statement,
asserting that it knew of 66 letters which ought to
have reached it during the same month, containing
in all $239, but of that number not one had been re-
ceived. From so large a list the Congregationalist ‘l, as
enabled to trace and indicate the most unsafe mail
routes which it openly did. The impression is becont-*
ing general that the most insecure tneans of transrnis-*
sioa in the United States is by po,t. Robbery so
wholesale as the instances recorded must .compel
the attention of the Department, and a elose in-
vestigation into the ch cumstances. Philip I'. Hag-
gerty, for the l ast 15 y, ars a &erk in the Post-
office at Lowell, Ma-kachusetts, has been arrested
on the charge of robbing the mails, and other ar-
rests will doubtless soon be made:

Some time ago a person describing hers,flf -as Han-
nah Tyler, clerk in the Tratsu ry Department, wrote to
the Independent, making serious charges against her
associates. The letter attracted attention, and on
investigation it was found that there was no such
person, and that her statements in the main were
untrue. When the sulject came to be looked into
it was discovered that nearly all were the widows,
the daughters, or the mar relations of officers and
Others killed while serving in the Union Army.
Many of these ladies had themselves during that
period performed good service. On Miss Wright's
information Sheridan fought the battle of Win-
chester, and she wears at her desk the cavalry trin-
kets presented to her by the General in acknow-
ledgment for her service.-% Anothi r was captured
with the Gettysburg hospital, where she was au.
efficient nurse, just before the great battle. Gen.
Spinner speaks in the highest terms not only of the
character of these employees, but of their work.
They arc the most rapid counters of money and
most expert in detecting counterfeitA, and liar lly a
day p.tsses that they do not discover forg,!ries which
have escaped the keen mutiny of the most accom-
plished of the bank officers. It is curious that opi-
nions should differ so widely as to the number of fe-
male clerks employed. In one account they are put
down at 600 in the Treasury out of 6,000 clerks ; in
a second 1,500, and in a third 2,000. As a rule they
are underpaid and overworked ; women of irre-
proachable character, who have secured their ap-
poittments by means rather creditable to them
than.the reverse, and we believe the more closely
this was investigated the more clearly did it appear.
The Cambria is ready for her race, all the alte-
rations having been completed, though some nau-
tical men consider that Mr. Ashbury therein has
made a mistake at least in filling up the hollow of
her bows under water by which the owner hopes
she will gain buoyancy and speed ilia heavy sea-
way. Her masts and bowsprit have been bored—
.a ,difficult and delicate operation—which will re-
duce them almost three-quarters of a ton: Her
masts have been lengthened by " tongueing" them
at foot. Her rudder is being altered upon a new
and improved principle, which will add much to
her qnickness in stays. Her windlass has been re-
moved, and a neat capstan substituted for it. This
gives her more deck room on tre forecastle. Her
cabins have also undergone extensive alterations,
and are decorated with old paintings representing
incidents in her matches during 1868. The chal-
lenge of Harvard University included Cambridge
as well as Oxford, but if Harvard can beat the Ox-
ford men, they need not trouble themselves to
row against Cambridge. The latter have, however,
conditionally accepted the challenge.
. The President has set his mind on the speedy Re-
construction of Texas, Virginia, and Mississippi.
Ile evidently intends to be Chief Magistrate of a
real Union, with no lost stars on its banner. Gen.
Reynolds, -commanding at Texas, has been in-
structed immediately to begin the registration of
voters, and to hurry it through that the Constitu-
tion may be quickly *submitted to the. people.
Governor Welles, of Virginia, has been in consul.
tation with the President about that State, and
Gen. Grant has been gathering information every-
where on Mississippi. It is said that almost imme-
diately the day will be decided on for the election
in each of these States.

The poor Imperialist does not find the, soil of
America congenial. People scarcely know what to
make of. it ; some' thinking Democratic it a-Deocratic dodge
to bring the President into disrepute and to awaken
prejudices against hien ; others that it is a: joke, but
there are those who believe it tO be a serious rea-
lity. A report was circulaied 'that it had died on
learning the inexorable decision of the. News Coin-

pules not to circulate it. The proprietors, how-

ever, announced that the
,paper had already ob-
tained a circulation of 10,000, and that it intended
vigorously to carry on the campaign of Monarchy

against Republicanism in America.
The indefatigable Bishop Gray of the Cape of
Good Hope has sent an official to the Bishop of the
Episcopal Church at New Mors announcing the

consecration of Dr. Allemric as the Bishop of Na-
tal. In his letter he says :—" I cannot mike this

announcement without onc,3 more expre7zing my
hearty thanks to the American Church for the sym-
pathy and support which it gave to the Church in
South Africa when called to contend with great dif-

Unities." What will be Colensu's end with three

continents stirred up against him ?
Lieut -Governor Dunn (coloured), of Louisiana,
complained to Gen. Beauregard that he was not per-
mitted to sit in theordinary railway cars when on his

way from New Orleans to Washington. The General,
who was president of the Railway Company, an-
swered that he had no powers to alter the old re-
gulations of the Corporation which excluded co-
loured men, but that he, would submit the matter to

the BOard. Two hundred and -fifty years ago, Sir

other British virtues, sailed up the James Rivet

BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE—THE MAYOR 10
• CORK. •
Mr. GLADSTONE said he had now to make the
motioa that the house would meet at two o'elecic °!!,
Tuesday morning next. There was the greatest desire to
get through the provisions of the bill as early as possibl6
and with that view he had.to appeal to hon. menibe-
who had motions on the paper, which it was their iat'n-
tion of proceeding with on the motion for going

been postpenel, and he did hope that the hon. 'newt:het

Lord Lieutenant,. in order to determine whether it
