HABITUAL CRITIMALS.—John Sweeney, a young man,
was placed at the bar charged with robbing James Pem-
berton of 3s. 6d. at a public-house at Chelsea.
Mr. Horton, an inspector of the B division, said that
there was no prosecutor.

Mr. Selfe—Let the prisoner be put back till the last. I
shall not part with him while there is a chance of any one
appearing against him.
Mr. Horton (after an interval of a few minutes)—l find
that the prisoner's mother has compromised the case by
pay ing the prosecutor money. She is here.
Mr. Selfe How is this, Mrs. Sweeney ? ,
Mrs. Sweeney —lt's quite true. I gave him 58. not to
come against my son.

Mr. Selfe—Hore if you did you did very wrong, and are
liable to be, indicted for compromising a felony ; so is tho
prosecutor.
The mother—l thought it was the thing I could do. I
parted with some clothes to do it. _

- Mr. Selfe—lt is no goad. Your son is always here for
this sort of thing. You may do nothing else. He is one
of the persons who, when the new law comes into opera-
tion, we shall have to look after.

A FAMILY HEIRLOOM.

Sir Wilfrid Lawson has just obtained a highly
edifying parliamentary return of three pages,
of which we scarcely . know whether it will
more please or alarm the family whom it
concerns. It will be remembered that when Mr.
Disraeli's Government was in its death throes, the
Earl of Lonsdale, who is 82 years old, resigned the
Lord-Lieutenancy of Cumberland and Westmore-
land, and was succeeded by his nephew and heir, Mr.
Henry Lowther, M.P. for West Cumberland. There
was a great outcry. It was alleged by the Liberals
that this resignation of Lord Lonsdale's was made
in order that the dignity might be kept in
the Lowther family, which it would not have been
if Lord nadale had died during the existence of Mr.
Gladstone's Administration. It w s also complained
that the lord-lieutenancy of two counties should be
held by the same person. Thereupon Sir Wilfrid
Lawson, who has before now fought a political battle
with the Lowthers, moved for a return of all appoint-
ments to the dignities in question for thelast 110 years.
That return is now before us, and is a curious docu-
ment. We find that in 1759 the Earl of Egremont
was Lord-Lieutenant of Cumberland, and in that
year his patent was revoked and conferred upon Sir
James Lowther. Fourteen months later Lord Egre-
mont was appointed custos of Cumberland, Sir
James Lowther custos of Westmoreland,. and the
office of lord-lieutenant of both counties was con-
ferred upon the latter magnate. In 1765 Lord Egre-
mont lost his sole remaining dignity, and the com-
bined offices of Lieutenant of Cumberland, Lieutenant
of Westmoreland, Custos Rotulorum of Cumberland,
and Custos Rotzt/mon of Westmoreland have ever
since been held by Lowthers, whose vested interest in
these dignities seems to have been acknowledged alike
by Tories and Whigs ; by Lord Melbourne no less
than by Lord Liverpool, the Duke of Wellington,
Sir H. Peel, and Mr. Disraeli. But tempera mutantur;
we need not finish the auotation.

LORD STANLEY.

Our contemporaries are greatly exercised about
Lord Stanley. The John Bull tells the Conservative
party that they must put their faith in the Lord
Derby of the present, not in the Lord Derby of the
future. The Spectator tells Lord Stanley that his
silence on all except foreign questions is a grave
dereliction of duty. The Times strongly advises the
ex-Foreign Secretary to sever himself from the
Conservative party, and so avoid the terrible mis-
take committed by Mr. Disraeli of binding himself
hand and foot to politicians who will condemn him
to perpetual sterility. The Standard, alarmed at the
prospect of the party losing one of its few able men,
indignantly resents this. advice, and declares that his
lordship has no intention of following it. Perhaps
the day will come when the Standard will desire
_ _

that he had, and will bestow upon him the same
title as it bestowed upon Sir Robert Peel twenty-

three years ago. But Lord Stanley is an inscrutal;le
man. Ile set out with supporting the abolition of
church rates and the admission of Jews into Par-
liament at a time when both measures were abhorred

by the party with whom he usually acted. People

eft mush niore certain that he would announce him

self a Liberal then than they do now, though they are
just as sure of his Liberalism as they ever were.
After all, Punch was right when it said, with refe-
rence tothe solar eclipse and the formation of the second
Derby-Disraeli Administration, eleven years ago,
" The true eclipse of the son is Lord Stanley joining
his father's Administration." That was an event

which brought about a similar event in 1860, and
each repetition of it renders more difficult a return
to an honest position—that of acting with the party
with whom you sympathise.

LORD AMBERLEY.

If the Kational Reformer (the organ of the
Secularists) is to be believed, Lord Amberley and
Sir Charles Lyell have joined a committee for the
defence of the Bev. Charles Voysey, the clergyman
whom the Archbishop of York is prosecUting for
heresy. We presume that his lordship takes this
step by way of practically carrying out the argument
laid down in his late contribution to the Fortnightly
Review, that a State Church ought to include
the teachers of error no less than the teachers of
truth. If Lord Amberley could have taken this step
six months earlier, the Liberal party in South Devon
would not have had the misfortune of being weighted
with a candidate whose theological views were so
entirely opposed to the convictions of the majority of
the electors, for the party would have seen from the
first what it has now learnt by experience—that to
fight with success it must have a champion whose
tactics will not alarm his own followers.

Mrs. Vivian has much to answer for. She has not
only brought disgrace upon herself and sorrow to
her husband and children, but has added another to
the list of absentee Irish landlords. The Marquis of
Waterford has broken up his establishment at Cur-

been informed that their services will be no
longer required. A local paper adds :—" The
absence of a resident nobleman who spent so much
time at his family residence, will be felt seriously in

LORD STANLEY.

Our contemporaries ar6 greatly exercised about
Lord Stanley. The John Bull tells the Conservative
party that they must put their faith in the Lord
Derby of the present, not in the Lord Derby of the
future. The Spectator tells Lord Stanley that his
silence on all except foreign questions is a grave
dereliction of duty. The Times strongly advises the
ex-Foreign Secretary to sever himself from the
Conservative party, and so avoid the terrible mis-
take committed by Mr. Disraeli of binding himself
hand and foot to politicians who will condemn him
to perpetual sterility. The Standard, alarmed at the
prospect of the party losing one of its few able men,
indignantly resents this advice, and declares that his
lordship has do intention of following it. Perhaps
the day will come when the Standard will desire
that he had, and will bestow upon him the same
title as it bestowed upon Sir Robert Peel twenty-
three years ago. But Lord Stanley is an inscrutable
man. He set out with supporting the abolition of
church rates and the admission of Jews into Par-
liament at a time when both measures were abhorred
by the party with whom he usually acted. People
felt much more certain that he would announce him-
self a Liberal then than they do now, though they are
just as sure of his Liberalism as they ever were.
After all, Punch was right when it said, with refe-
rence to the solar eclipse and the formation of the second
Derby-Disra,eli Administration, eleven years ago,
" The true eclipse of the son is Lord Stanley joining
his father's Administration." That was an event
which brought about a similar event in 1860, and
each repetition of it renders more difficult a return
to an honest position—that of acting with the party
with whom you sympathise.

EDUCATION OF THE BLIND.

The discussion lately raised respecting the best
means of instructing the blind is continued with
vigour. The Worcester Society proceeds upon the
assumption that the Roman type is the best suited
for universal adoption by the blind. On the other
hand, the French dotted system is fast becoming
popular ; while the Bible has been published in raised
type on Moon's and Lucas's systems, and is nearly
complete inFrere's phonetic shorthand. Dr. Armitage
has put forward his views on this subj cct at some length,
and is strongly in favour of submitting the ques-
tion at issue to the decision of a council of blind men
of educAtion who are practically acquainted with the
different .systems. The Rev. W. Taylor, of Wor-
cester, proposes that • each party should print what
1330 s they please, and leaVe the demand in the market
to shew which the majority of the blind prefer.
It must be remembered, however, that few blind
persons would have the opportunity of judging
between the rival systems, unless they had been spe-
cially instructed. 1)r. Armitage manifests some
annoyance at the course pursued by the Worcester
Society. It is to be hoped that the result of the
controversy will be an increase in the supply of
literature for the blind.
VOLUNTEERS ON THE MARCH.

A correspondent of the Times calls attention to a
fact which ought materially.to strengthen the hands
of those who advocate so strenuously the volunteer
movement. He records the travels and adventures
of the 35th West York Rifles in their journey
from York to Dover and back. One hundred
and forty of the corps leaving Keighley on
Saturday last arrived in London late at night, They
were provided with supper and sleeping room at the
headquarters of the Surrey Rifles. But oply sleep-
ing room ; they had to rest on straw, the War
Office refusing to allow the palliases and blankets
lying in the Stoic Department to be used. They had,
therefore, to sleep under canvas bags and such like,
borrowed where they could obtain them. The night
was cold ; andthe men warmed themselvesnext morn-
ing by a march to Westminster Abbey, where they
attended service. They then had their march
through the streets back to the Royal Exchange, and
were dismissed till night. At three o'clock on
Monday morning they were up to go to Dover.
At Dover they stood the rain and cold, and did the
work marked out for them. They returned the same
night to London, slept at the same place as they had
used the two previous nights, and went home to
Keighley on Tuesday morning. From Saturday
afternoon to Tuesday afternoon, 72 hours,
these men, who were chiefly mechanics, -were
absent from their homes. Of this time 22 hours
were spent on railways, 16 hours in sleep. Indepen-
dently of the miles traversed. in London and in the
course of the review, they were carried MO miles by
rail. Each man paid his own fare to London, and
lost a day's work. This feat reflects credit both on
volunteers in general and the county from which this
particular corns came.

THE REVOLT IN CUBA.

General Grant will give no support, moral or material,
to the Cuban insurgents. A deputation recently waited
upon him urging the recognition of the rebels as bellige-
rents ; but the President simply referred his consistent
countrymen to his inaugural speech, in which he proclaims
his intention to respect the neutrality laws. Unfortu.
nately, if the President respect these laws, the American
people do not.

MILITARY AND NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

Her Majesty's brig Martin, boys' training brig,
8 guns, Lieutenant George B. Evans, arrived at
Portsmouth about 10 a.m., yesterday, in tow of
the paddle steamer Medusa, Staff-Corumander G.
B. E. Swain, on her return from Dover; where
she formed one of the squadron of ships• of-war
intended to take part in the .Volunteer Review
of Monday last. The Martin has lost her bow-
sprit and head-gear from collision with the Medusa
in Dover Roads, during the rough weather pre-
vious to daylight on Monday. The Medusa had
two boats smashed, aed suffered other damage to
her port netting, sponson, &c. No blame can Le
attached to either vessel. Riding as they were in
such an exposed anchorage, in such exceptionally
rough weather, and on a weather tide, it is some-
what surprising that the collision was not more
serious. The Medusa had steam up at the time.
The Martin had been towed out from the harbour
at Dover the previous evening by a private steam
tug, at the expense of the officer commanding her,
in order to obtain a position clearer of other ship-
ping, as the weather was threatening.
The Royal Marine Barracks, vacated by the
Woolwich division of that force, will be handed
over to the Deputy-Assistant-Quartermastor's Ge-
neral's Department of the garrison on the 21st of
May next, for occupation by other troops.

THAMES.

A MARINE THIEF.— John Dyer, a well-known thief, was
brought before Mr. Benson, charged with stealing a coat
from the deck-house of a ship iu the West India Dock.
The prisoner was seen prowling about the dock. He was
known to be a thief and closely watched. He was seen to
go ors board a ship named Sarah Bank, and take a coat from
the deck-house, which he put on. Directly he cause on
shore he was arrested with the coat upon him. lie stole
another coat from a ship last December. He visited a
ship a few weeks ago, and directly he left a coat was
missing. Be had been in the practice of hanging about
ships for the purposes of plunder.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to four
months' imprisonment and hard labour.

FOREIGN NOTES.

TER CONSPIRACY IN ITALY.
WhatWe! may be the chances of a successful ruing eta
the part of the Italian Republicans, it cannot-be doubted
that the present moment is as propitious is can belthied
for. Agitation has prevailed throughout Italy since the
grist-tax riots of last January. •The Florence correspon-
dent of the Inclipendance Berge says that the state of affair
may be compared to a mine of latent disorder ; the
slightest incident may cause an explosion. At Ancona,
as we have already detailed, serious tumults have
been caused by an increase of the octroi duties. The
rioters got possession' of the Town Hall, burned the
registers, and smashed the furniture. The local govern-
ment found itself so powerless that it made a pure and
simple renunciation of the proposed increase. These
disturbances may not be directly connected with the con-
spiracy, but they cannot fail to prove favourable to it,
The same writer confirms the statement that a con-
spiracy has been discovered, and that numerous arrests
have been made. "The details are wanting but the fact
is incontestable." Seditious societies have been dissolved,
and seditious proclamations taken out of the hands of the
troops. A central army is about to be established in a
commanding position, so as to reach any given point at the
shortest notice.

The.Libert4 says that Mazzini is no party to the ridien-
lona inflammatory proclamations which have been pub-
lished. The Republican leader is engaged in a far more
important work—that of propagating Republican doctrines
in the army. He is well aware that the army is the chief
support of the monarchy, and he is attempting, not to
disorganise, but to Republicanise it. In the 70th Regiment
of the Line, for instance, nearly all the inferior ()Ricers
'have been " converted." At Capri, where a " discipline
company" exists, no less than seventy soldiers have been
put under restraint. Nevertheless, the Libert6 does not
apprehend any immediate outbreak. It thinks the plot
is hardly yet ripe ; Mazzini is too wary to trust himself
to a few soldiers. But the time must come soon.

TERRIBLE VOTACE OF AN EMIGRANT SHIP.

A day or two ago we published some details of a disas-
trous voyage made by an emigrant ship from Liverpool to
New York. The vessel took three months to cross the
Atlantic. One hundred and fortysix passengers, all poor,
were carried, the steerage being much overcrowded, and,
worse still, the crew thoroughly inefficient. Very stormy
weather set in, and fever and diarrhoea attacked the pas-
sengers. But even the horrible sufferings causedby- disease,
tempests, and an incapable crew were not all that these
emigrants had to undergo. Many of them have given
evidence on oath of the cruelties inflicted upon them.
One witness, an English mechanic, declared that
during one week of his voyage he had but two
quarts of meal for his entire food, that the car-
penter and boatswain repeatedly beat the passengers,
and that a dying sailor was dragged on to the deck with a
rope, kicked by a cabin-boy to make him rouse to work,
but as he could not Work, left half naked on deck till some
one in pity dragged him to the hospital to die. Food was
given to the passengers uncooked. They were brutally
treated if they dared to complain. At length when the
voyage, which usually occupies a few days, had been com-
pleted in three months, eighteen of the passengers and
crew were dead, and of the remainder 72 were in various
stages of illness. The story is now being told before the
Emigration Commissioners of New York. It is a narrative
of misery which would not inadequately represent the
horrors of a slave ship.

CITY ARABS.

An East-end clergyman writes to the Times on
Miss Rye's project for helping " gutter children,"
and thinks it is well adapted for the requirements of
a difficult class. In his own parish he has hundreds
of these children who are growing up to be thieves
and Magdalenes. Ile gives an account of a girl in
his parish, to shew how arduous is the task of rescu-
ing these outcasts when their "vagabond habits"
have became firmly established. Another correspon-
dent looks with doubt on the scheme for
the emigration of pauper children, and points
out the difficulties which Miss Rye seems to
have overlooked. He does not think that the
.Americans would approve of the wholesale removal
of children ; and the immigration laws are so strict
that the children may not be allowed to land. He
considers the proposal will be quite impracticable
unless it receives the sanction of the Government of
Canada, or of the United States.

can be sung with good effect at a merrymaking in the

find great favour amongst those who delight in pure and
simple melody. The songs from Messrs. Cocks and Co.

ELECTION COMMISPIIONS.

Mr. Rogers writes to the Star• on the Nor-
wich and Bridgwater commissions. He considers
that the recent decision of the House of Commons
will be of the greatest possible service in puri-
fying Parliamentary elections. It is advisable
that the " peccant constituency " should
bear the expenses of the inquiry into their
malpractices. He regrets that the judges should
have insisted on such stringent proofs of agency in
dealing with electoral offences. The only real remedy
will be the Ballot; but certain persons in Parliament
are interested in maintaining the present system.
The Ballot is a necessity for Ireland, where
its absence makes electioneering a mere farce, and
would introduce many advantages into the repre-
sentation of England, Scotland, and Wales. The
Professor concludes with an anecdote of the Ballot
in the days :of Louis Philippe. !,A lawyer of
Bordeaux, was a candidate for that city,
and after the election he was waited on
by a client, who was also an elector. He
came to pay a bill of charges incurred by his suc-
cessor to a relative's estate. " Add," said the client,
" 125 francs to the account." When this was done
ho explained himself. " When you were a candi-
date for Bordeaux you asked me to vote for you, and
gave me 125 francs. I voted against you, but now
that lam rich I cannot keep your money." Mr.
Rogers thinks that an English elector would foil an
agent as completely as the farmer did the Bordeaux
lawyer.
