ORANGE MOVEMENTS IN ULSTER.

With the exception of the riot at Portadown there does
not appear to have been any actual disturbance in Ulster on
the let of July. The Orangemen, however, hoisted their flags
on almost all the churches, and in some places varied the cus-
tomary programme by burning Mr. Gladstone in Effigy, with
the Church Bill in his band. Atßilleevan, county Monaghan,
they are stated to have been under the leading of the Rev.
Mr. Flanagan, a rather violent "defence" orator, who ad-
dressed them on " the perfidy of the House of Lords, and in
particular on the treacherous doings of the so-called Con
aervative peers." There were greens given at this place
for Lord Cairns ; "the English Puseyite bishops;" with
" three in particular for the Bishop of Oxford" and the
" renegades of the House of Peers." It is reported that at a
muster of Roman Catholics near Banbridge, where Mr. John-
ston of Hallykilbeg was burned in effigy, much excitement
was manifested, and volleys of musketry discharged. At
Btewartson the effigy-burning of Mr. Gladstone was
similarly gone through, and many slots were heard on the
Lilts during the night. At Downpati ick tar-Larrels wore
kept burning and airs were played, Lut "not," accord-
ing to the Northern 717,ig, "cf a party nature." The
princii al "drumming" occurred at Omagh, where likewise
the effigy of a bishop "with a High Church hat" was con-
sumed. The police attempted tq prevent this, and between
them and the people the "man cf straw" was torn to
pieces ; but the mob gathered the fragments and burnt
thEni, with shoutings. In the town of Monaghan, where
a riot occurred last year, the rector, the Rev. Dr. Bailey,
prevented flags being placed on the parish church.

ACTION AGAINST A BILL BROKER.

In the Court of Exchequer on Monday the case of "Foster
v. Foster" was tried. The plaintiff, George Alavoine
Foster, was formerly a sworn broker and a mem-
ber of the Stock Exchange. The defendant was
George Foster, a bill broker. They were not rela-
tives. Early in 1867 the defendant came to the plaintiff,
and asked him to open on his behalf a " bear account for a
fall" on the Stock Exchange. He produced a cheque for
£40,000 worth of foreign stock and bank shares, and his bank
book to show that he had ample means to meet his engage-
ments, and gave him the names of several relations and friends
as a proof of his respectability. Tho plaintiff consented to
open the account, and by the end of May the transaction
amounted to nearly £400,000, upon which, in consequence of a
rise in the market, there was a loss of £9,000. On the 31st
the defendant called upon the plaintiff, and told him Olathe
was unable to meet his engagements, and that he (the
plaintiff) must write a letter to the committee of the Stock
Exchange, stating that plaintiff must be declared a defaulter.
At the same time he told the plaintiff that his own friends
would assist him with advances, and that he would ultimately
pay the plaintiff. The defendant dictated the letter, and it
was duly forwarded to the Stock Exchange. Afterwards
the plaintiff was made a bankrupt, and it was discovered
that his hooks had been abstracted from an iron safe, of
which he had allowed the defendant to have a key. The
defendant denied having got them, but they were found
in his possession. Proceedings bad been taken against
the defendant for perjury, and he was now out of the
country. The plaintiff sought to recover £9OO for com-
mission, and .£4,000 for money advanced to the defen-
dant. Until ho met his engagements in the Stock Exchange
he could not, of course, recover frcm the defendant the
amounts for which he had rendered himself liable. Dur-
ing the examination in chief of the plaintiff the parties
agreed to the withdrawal of a juror, subject to a private
arrangement.

LORD BROUGHAM v. CALUVIN.

The Master of the Rolls gave judgment to-day
in this case. The bill was filed by the plaintiff, the
brother of the late Lord Brougham, and Master
in Chancery, for an injunction to restrain the de-
fendant, Dr. Cauvin, from publishing any portion
of MMS. of the late lord, including letters which
had been entrusted to him to edit. Dr. Cauvin
claimed a lien on the document, which he refused
to give up unless he received £4OO. His lordship
refused the injunction.

AC7ION AGAINST DIRECTORS.

DECISION THIS DAY.

The case of Jacomb v. Watkin and another was again
resumed this morning.
Sir Edward Watkin's examination-in-chief was con-
cluded.

The foreman of the jury said they were unanimously
of opinion that up to this Limo the plaintiff had not proved

his case.

The Lord Chief Justice said that he entirely concurred
with the jury. Up to this time there was not a shadow of
pretence for saying, so far as he could see, there was any-
thing that affected Sir Edward Watkin in the most tech-
nical sense whatever.

The Solicitor-General said he thought he ought not to
keep the case up longer, and
The Lord Chief-Justice said he was now bound to with-
draw anything he had said iu the way of blame o❑ Sir
Edward not naving referred the case.
The plaintiff was then elected to be non-suited.
Nou-suited accordingly.

TIIE PIGE.O'N-SLAYERS.

Hurlingbam Park w.ls fairly besieged on Saturday
afternoon by the pigeon-slayers and their friends.
Four thousand persons were present at the sport,
the Prince of Wales among them, though the fact is
not chronicled in the court Circular. All the drags
of the Four-in-Hand Club went down, and the road
was blocked with patrician carriages ; 242 birds were
killed, the slayers including several peers and
honourables and six members of the House of
Commons. Captain Pritchard carried of
the principal prize, a beautiful silver vase
worked with allegorical figures, including, no
doubt, Pity. Cups were then filled with cham-
pagne, and quaffed, whether in solemn silence to the
memory of the deceased birds is not stated. The
betting was very lively indeed. There was one sub-
ject of great complaint. The sun would shine into
the eyes of the marksmen, and interfered &idly with
their gallantry. No doubt it was owing to this fact
that 111 birds had the meanness to escape.

ROMAN CATHOLIC CHILDREN.

Mr. Boulnois, chairman of the Schools Committee,
has written to the limes with respect to the educa-
tion of Catholic pauper children. He states that the
guardians of Marylebone have made arrangements
for the visitation and instruction of the Catholic
children at the parochial schools at Southall, and
have never received any complaints from the Roman
Catholic priest, having, in fact,'granted all he asked
for.

A letter on the same subject from Archbishop
Manning was read on Sunday in all the churches of
bis archdiocese. Dr. Manning requested all persons
who were acquainted with orphan pauper children to
take care that they were classed as Catholics in the
workhouse, and make their cases known to the
priest.

FOREIGN NOTIC'
rzusorTAL GOVERNMENT IN FRANCA
The Parisian correspondent of the riffled, oontittift that
the last days of personal government are come. Nothing
can withstand the desire of the country for reform. The
representatives of the Government have still a large
majority in the Corps Ldgislatif, but this avails nothing.
The great fact of the almost unanimous pronunciamiento
by the towns of the Empire against the present
system carries all before it, and casts wholly in the
shade the nameless and colourless crowd of rural
voters, who care and know about the opinions of candidates
"as much as their sheep do." Personal government and
M. Itouher must go together, The Emperor admits his
moral defeat at the last election ; and the discourse read
at the opening of the present session must be regarded as
the cutting of the cable, and the real starting for a new
destination. The on!.v question left is to decide how per.
sonal government can be given up without endangering the
safety and dignty of the Crown. That Imperialist sup-
porter, the correspondent of the Telegraph, writes in the
same strain.

„EXCESSIVE DBINKING.

The Manchester Courier says : "Another example of the
terrible consequences of excessive drinking was made
public on Saturday. About a month ago a gentle-
man, named Pendry, who formerly held a
responsible position on the Midland Railway, was
caught in the act of cutting his throat with a pocket-
knife. He was removed to a medical institution, where
it was found that he had also stabbed himself thirteen
times in the chest. On Saturday he was taken before the
magistrates at Leamington, charged with attempting self-
destruction. He seemed desponding, but the house
surgeon of the institution in which his injuries
had been attended to thought he might safely
be discharged. In consequence of his dissipated habits,
however, his friends declined to take care of him, and
pressed the bench to commithizn for trial, in the hope that
a term of imprisonment might result in reformation. He
vas accordingly remanded."

EARLY CLOSING.

An "Indoor Servant" writes to the Times on the
Saturday half-holiday, awl refers to the meeting at
Stafford House on the subject. He considers that
the claims of servants should not be overlooked,
very few of whom ever have an Easter Sunday
or a Christmas holiday. In nine cases out of
ten indoor servants are on duty far too many hours,
and their constitutions are ruined in consequence.
A great deal may be done by judicious management
to give servants more outdoor exercise and rest, and
ladies and gentlemen would find themselves better
served by a better class •of servants. They would
confer a great benefit on others, and in the end on
themselves, by obtaining what they say is now so
difficult to obtain, namely " a thorough good
servant."

PRIZE-17:GIITING IN AMERICA.

Prize-fighting has left England for America, and
it has not lost in danger or brutality in its journey
across the Atlantic. Two amateur worshippers of
the " noble art of self-defence" were recently
engaged in a " rattling mill " (as the sporting papers
call a fight), and they fought until one of them fell
dead. We have now the account of another combat,
a ring encounter between Allen and M'Coole, an
Englishman and an Irishman. The English-
man, we are told, had the best of it,
for his opponent's face was " gashed and
furrowed like a ploughed field; " as early as
" Round 5 " he cannot see where to hit for the blood
that streams over his face and the passion that blinds
"him." Coming on to the finish there is a cry that
Allen is gouging M'Coole, and then the ring is
broken and the spectators draw knives upon the
referee to give a decision for the giant or take the
consequence. The referee, however, manages to
escape from the spot, and on his arrival at St. Louis,
to everyone's astonishment, delivers judgment in,
favour of the Irishman, on the grounds of a foul.
This is another instance of the nobility ani manli-
ness of the ring.

The directors draw special attention to the fact that the
next bonus valuation will take place at the end of the year
1872, and that all polices effected on the profit scales prior
to the 31st December, 1869, will be entitled to participate
in the same,

The directors also draw attention to the successful esta-
blishment during the past year of the Britannia Fire
Association, under the auspices of the Briton. The direc-
tors believe that the establishment of a Fire Company, to
work in active co-operation with the Life, will tend much
to the advantage and profit of both institutions. It is
scarcely necessary to remark that the capital funds and
constitution of each office are quite separate and distinct.

THE FENIAN. DEMONSTRATION IN LONDON.

The Fenian demonstration on the anniversary of
imerican Independence too!: place on Sunday. It
wasnot a very formidable affair. The Irish and the,
:Americans thought to go to Rye House; but the pro-
prietor, having had his attention called to the
character of the mc&inT, by the police, refused to
receive them, and the vans were driven to High
Beech, Essex. Here about :2,000 persons listened to
The expression of some very advanced opinions, and
a mPluorial was agreed to, praying for the release of
the Fenian prisoners.

MR. CIIILDERS.

The guests who were so fortunate as to be invited
to the recent gitrden party given by the First Lord
of the Admiralty speak in the highest terms of the
manner in which he has made the wilderness to
rejoice and blossom like the rose. There is a garden
attached to the official residence at Whitehall.
Previous First Lords have been so much engrossed
by their duties that they have shamefully neglected
to develope the capacities of this parterre.
Mr. Childers having to fulfil the painful
task of sending clerks adrift when they thought they
had been provided for for life, has been al,solutely
compelled to relieve the anguish thus inflicted upon
him by the amenities of gardening. True, he did say
that he would surrender this official residence for the
public service. He has done much more wisely.
He has retained it, and he has reclaimed the
garden. How much better second thoughts are than
first. This garden is national property. It had
Veen allowed to run waste by Mr. Childers's extra-
vagant predecessors. Mr. Childers has turned it to
good account, has weeded and planted and adorned
it out of the money saved by dismissing superfluous
clerks. The nation has now the satisfaction of
knowing that there is another oasis in the desert of
London, and that once or twice a year a few hundred
of the aristocracy are admitted to see with their own

TEE SPANISH REPUBLICANS.

Spain still continues a prey to agitation of greatei-tirleas
importance. A band of insurgents, brigands, or rioters
has made its appearance in the neighbourhood of Seville,
and has been deemed of sufficient consequence to require
the attendance of troops. The Republican flag was
hoisted by these malcontents, but the Republican leaders
disclaim all connection with them. Other bands are
giving trouble in Aragon and Andalusia. Don Carlos has
issued a manifesto to the Spanish nation.

LaNDOAV, TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1869.

Amended more or less, or altogether unamended,
the clauses of the Irish Churzb Bill already passed
through the Lords' Committee, are numbering
up more rapidly than the majority anticipated.
The Peers have certainly shown themielves to be
both eloquent and industrious—eloquent in the great
debate on the Second Reading—industrious in Com-
mittee. Their lordships may very fairly be said to
hold their own when brought into comparison with
the House of Commons. The unmannerly sneer in-
dulged in against them by one of the most conspi-
cuous Ministers of the Crown in the present Cabinet
can hardly be deemed very recently to have had its

ORANGE MOVEMENTS IN ULSTER.

With the exception of the riot at Portadown there does
not appear to have been any actual disturbance in Ulster on
the Ist of July. The Orangemen, however, hoisted their flags
on almost all the churches, and in some places varied the cus-
tomary programme by burning Mr. Gladstone in effigy, with
the Church Bill in his hand. AtKilleaven, county Monaghan,
they are stated to have been under the leading of the Rev.
Mr. Flanagan, rather violent "defence" orator, who ad-
dressed them on "the perfidy of the House of Lords, and in
particular on the treacherous doings of the. so-called Con-
servative peers." There were groans given at this place
for Lord Cairns; "the English Fuseyite bishops;" with
" three in particular for tho Bishop of Oxford" and the
" renegades of the House of Peers." It is reported that at a
muster of Roman Catholics near Banbridge, where Mr. John-
ston of Ballykilbeg was burned in effigy, much excitement
was manifested, and volleys of musketry discharged. At
Btewaitson the effigy-burning of Mr. Gladstone was
similarly gone through, and many shots were heard on the
bills during the night. At Downpatrick tar-1 arrels were
kept burning and airs were played, tut "not," accord-
ing to the Northern Whig, "of a party nature." The
princit al "drummirg" occurred at Omagh, where I:kewiso
the effigy of a bishop "with a Iligh Church bat" was con-
sumed. The police attempted to prevent this, and between
them and the people the "man cf straw" was torn to
pieces ; but the mob gathered the fragments and burnt
them, with shootings. In the town of Monaghan, where
a riot occurred last year, the rector, the Rev. Dr. Bailey,
prevented flags being placed on the parish church.

;SHIPPING DISASTFR ; IN THE EAST INDIES.

Two terribly cyclones have recently swept over the Bay
of Bengal—one on the 16th of May, the other on the 10th
of June. Of the latter we as yet only know that it
was extremely destructive to life and property ;
but full particulars are to hand of the storm which
took place on the 16th of May. The losses are of the
most serious character. The town of Dacca, situated near
the juncture of the Brahmapootra with a branch of the
Ganges, was grea:ly injured. On the river alone £20,000
worth of merchandise was destroyed. The loss of life in
this quarter was confined chiefly to the natives ; but
one European, Mr. Ross Donnelly Stuart, perished.
Worst of all, it h feared that the mail steamer Cheduba,
of the Trit'-h India Steam Navigation Company, foun-
dered d tripe- the cyclone. The Bcnt',ay Ga:ete says she
left the Sandbe ads early on the 15th, and nothing has
since b •en heard of her. All hopes of her safety seem to
have been abandoned. If the Cheduha has really foun-
dered there can be no hope that any of I,_er crew or pas.
sengers have survived. Amongst her passengers was
Major-General Robert Nicholas Faunce, of the Madras
Staff Corps, an officer of about forty-five years' service.
There was ala) on board Lieutenant Fergusson, of the
21st Fusiliers, besides a considerable number of natis
passengers.

On the west coast of India two serious wrecks have
occurred. The Great Northern, of Liverpool, a ship of
1,400 tom, was lost on the 7th of June, at Bassein, and
fifteen of the crew were drowned. There were no
passengers. The Bucentaur, also :of Liverpool, was
wrecked near Bombay on June 3, but the crew were
saved.

THE BEST REMEDY FOR INDIGESTION.
NORTON'S CAMOMILE PILLS are confi-
dently recommended as a simple but certain
Remedy for Indigestion, which is the cause of nearly all
the diseases to which we are subject, being a medicine so
uniformly grateful and beneficial that it is with justice
railed the " Natural Strengthener of the Human Stomach.'
" Norton's Pills" act as a powerful tonic and gentle ape-
rient; are mild in their operation, safe under any cir-
zumstances, and thousands of persons can now bear testi-
mony to the benefits to be derived from their use, as they
have been a never-failing Family Friend for upwards of
20 years. _ _ _

Sold in bottles at ls. lid., 2s. 9d., and lls. each, in
every town in the kingdom.
CAUTION.

Bo sure to ask for " NORTON'S PILLS," and do not
be persuaded to purchase any of tho various imitations
which have sprung up in consequence of the success of
Norton's Camomile Pills."

A MEMORABLE DAY.

Monday, July 5, 1869, will be celebrated in Court
annals. It will be told in after days how the first
gentleman of England undertook the noble and
heroic task of reforming and beautifying the hideous
evening costume which until then unfortunate men
were condemned to wear. It will be said that,
having held a Cabinet Council with his chief adviser,
Poole, his Royal Highness appeared at a ball at
Marlborough House in all the splendour of
a blue dress-coat with gold buttons, a
white silk waistcoat, and black breeches. Young
men will rejoice, old men will recall the halcyon days
of the Regency. Altogether, the day will be marked
with a white stone in the royal and sartorial
calendars.

good as it was on his arrival in Ame*c t. Mr. Peabody

THE WEATHER AND THE cnors.

It is satisfactory to find that the bleak and cloudy
weather which Londoners complained of so sorely.
last week was confined for the most part to them.
Accounts from various parts of the country speak of
brilliant skies, and in some places, especially Ireland,
of a sun almost too hot. The crops promise well,
and if the promise is fulfilled, 1860 will be
noted alike for its hay and for its corn harvests—two
pieces of good fortune which do not often occur in
the same year. Taking a long leap and passing to
India, we find that the heat there has been something
terrible. Some benevolent and ingenious person hcs
invented a covering for horses, so that their head
may be protected from the fierce sun.

THE DESTINY OF THE CHINESE.

Will it fall to the lot of the superabundant population
of China to join the Anglo-Saxon race in peopling the
unoccupied portions of the globe? A few years ago, when
not a Chinaman could be seen outside the Celestial
Empire, such a question would be regarded as absurd.
Now the aspact of affairs is very different. The race
most zealous'y devoted to its old traditions
is spreading all over the world. The Western
States of America are rapidly becoming peopled
with Chinese. During the year 1866 the arrivals in
California from China and Japan were 2,300, in ]F€7
they were 3,303, and in 1868 they were more thin 10,000,
while this year they are expected to exceed any previous
total. One agent has been sent out to China on
behalf of a Chicago firm to negotiate for 50,000
of the :e immigrants. The fact is, the Americans
are disposed to encourage this great flow of the human
race to the utmost extent. They are as glad to receive
these rs ful colonists as the Chinese themselves are glad
to get away from their mandarins and the bast'n •do.
Twelve hundred and fifty women were landed at San
Franc'sco last month,

The behavi3ur of the Chinese immigrants receives the
highest plalse from the American journals. TI ef are
very in 'tla rious, thrifty, sober, and quiet. A remarkable
contrast between their conduct and that of the Iri:h and
American labourers is given in one of the journals of •ha
Far West. The eastern portion of the PaciEc y
was made c' icily by the Irish or Americas; the Chinese
were emp'oyed on the western or Pac:fio end. The l:4 to r
portio t of the work was conducted with far morn Intl*
larity and good order than the former. The &cram n'o
U 'ion says:—

" We do not recall to mind a single death by wanton
violence on the lint, of the Central Pacific during the past
year, while hardly a day has passed on the other end of
the r..sd without some net of murder or other atrocity.
The Chinese have honestly woo a compliment for good
order, sobriety. and good work, which ought to shame
tlor,e white rullian3 who are in tie habit of traducing
their morals at the same time they are murdering each
other."

phenomena of the age.

EARLY CLOSING.

An "Indoor Servant" writes to the Times on the
Saturday half-holiday, and refers to the meeting at
Stafford House on the subject. He considers that
the claims of servants should not be overlooked,
very few of whom ever have an Easter Sunday
or a Christmas holiday. In nine cases out of
ten indoor servants are on duty far too many hours,
and their constitutions are ruined in consequence.
A great deal may be done by judicious management
to give servants more outdoor exercise and rest, and
ladies and gentlemen would find themselves better
served by a better class of servants. They would
confer a great benefit on others, and in the end on
themselves, by obtaining what they say is now so
difficult to obtain, namely, " a thorough good
servant."

EXCESSIVE DI?INKI2VG.

The Manchester Courier says : "Another example of the
terrible consequences of excessive drinking was made
public on Saturday. About a month ago a gentle-
man, named Pendry, who formerly held'. a
responsible position on the Midland Railway, was
caught in the act of cutting his throat with a pocket-
knife. He was removed to a medical institution, where
it was found that ho had also stabbed himself thirteen
times in the chest. On Saturday he was taken before the
magistrates at Leamington, charged with attempting self-
destruction. He seemed desponding, but the house
surgeon of the institution in which his injuries
had been attended to thought he might safely
be discharged. In consequence of his dissipated habiO,
however, his friends declined to take care of him, and
pressed the bench to commit him for trial, in the hope that
a term of imprisonment might result in reformation. He
was accordingly remanded."
