LORD IVILLOUGHBY VERESLY.

It is well for the credit of the British peerage that
there are few peers who would venture to outrage
public opinion in the way Lord Willoughby
D'Eresby has done. Everyone will remember that
scandalous trial in which he was sued by the lady
who had formerly lived with him as his wife, and
whom, on coming into his title and fortune, he turned
off. Everyone will remember the Lord Chief Justice's
severe remarks upon the defendant, and the still
severer comments of the whole newspaper press. It
will be remembered, too, that the suit was referred
to arbitration, and that Mr. Vernon Harcourt decided
th it the lady should receive £lOO a month, 525,000
down, and £l,OOO .a year •as rent. Nevertheless his
lordship, who has rn l'ome, we believe, of i7'0,000
a year, bas paid only ;300 a year under the
award, and the lady has been so embarrassed
in consequence that her creditors have im-
prisoned her for debt, and her health is
now broken down. More than that, they even
demanded bail, unr7er the pretence that she was
going to run aw:.y from her creditors. As this
would be running away from her income lil:ewise,
one cannot help suspecting a siecial motive for, and
instigator a hidden of, proceedings so needlessly
harsh. In the meanwhile Lord Willoughby
D'Eresby is a second time the theme of universal
scandal, the object -of universal condemnation.

FOREIGN NOTES.
ANNEXATION FEVER IN AMERICA.
Mr. Chandler, .a Michigan senator of bellicose Tame,.
brought a resolution before the American Upper House,
on the 19th of April, to the affect that the President be
directed to pen negotiations with England for a settle-
ment of all claims on the basis of a transfer. of the
British North American possessions to the United
States. Mr. Chandler is the parliamentary repre'-
sentative of the party which believes that the Alabama
compensation claims would be fair " dicker" for British
nail America. We have not yet the pleasure of learning
the full argument by which this proposition was supported ;
but Mr. Chandler is of opinion that England, as well as
France, staked her American possessions on the success
of the rebellion. The conduct Of the Emperor Napoleon
towards the North lost him Mexico ; our evil deeds ought
to cost us half a continent. The motion appears to have
produced some sensation, for gold went up directly in
Wall-street, and a war with England became the current
topic. But neither of these two effects is so novel as to
deserve the name of phenomenon. Gold has gone down
again, the war talk has subsided, and Mr. Chandler's
resolution has been consigned to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs. But really, what with these annexation proposi-
tions, motions for the recognition of Cuban independence,
and inch speeches as that of Mr. Sumner on the Alabama
claims, the United States Legislature is not presenting a
very dignified appearance at the present moment. The
New York papers, however, are beginning to find it
necessary to laugh at these extravagancies ; and this is
rather a good sign.

MAZZINTAN PLOTS.

• If the Wanderer of yienna is to- be believed, the great
centre of agitation £4 LUgitilo by no means confines the
distribution of its revolutionary favours to Italy. A Coup.
de-main is in preparation for the benefit of the small
Eastern States. A general rising is contemplatel in the
Danubian Principalities, Transylvania, Hungary, and
that portion of Christian Turkey which is not under semi-
independent rule. All these States have been "well
worked," the Wanderer assures us, by revolutionary
emissaries. Neither Kossuth, Mazzini, nor Garibaldi is
a stranger to this scheme. The apprehensions of the
Wanderer may be taken for what they are worth, but it
may be mentioned that the chances of success for the
Republicans are small indeed. The Austrian Govern-
ment is very strong at the present moment, and the
sick man, for an invalid, was never better in his life.

A more substantial piece of revolutionary intelligence !s
the fact that the leader of the Milan conspirators, Braz-
zoduro, has escaped the vigilance of the authorities, and
has got clear off to Luzano. But the Milanese officials
have secured fifteen prisoners, and are making the most
of them. A " vigorous examination," says the Pungolo,
is now going on. The Florence correspondent of the Patric
confirms the general impression that the Garibaldians
ha :l no direct share in the plot, though well aware of its
existence.

THE IRISH CHURCH.

The house then went into committee on the bill,
Clause 30, which made enactments with respect to
mixed endowments, was agreed to ; as was clause 31,
which defined the limitation of the right to purchase fee
simple, in consideration of perpetual rent.
Clause 32 was next proposed, •it dealt with the sale of
the rent charge to the owners of land, and enacted that the
commissioners might sell any rent charge in lieu of tithes
vested in them under the act to the owners of land,
charged herewith in consideration of a sum equal to
twenty-two and a half times the amount of such rent
charge.

Mr. FAWCETT moved that the clause be struck out.
The proposition was negatived without a division.
Clause 37, which provides compensation for professors
iu the College of Belfast, was also negatived without a
division.

Clanso 38, enabling the commissioners to commute the
annuities of Nonconformist ministers and professors at
Belfast, was agreed to.

The house then resumed, and the orders of the day hay-
ing been disposed of, afterwards adjourned.

WRECK ON THE NORFOLK CoAsT.—Late on
Thursday night the fine iron screw steamer the Lady
Flora, bound to Hull, came ashore amidst the breakers in
a heavy sea (the ---"-12slowing about north-east by
north), just. within the boundaries (south) of Cloister. She
showed a light, and immodiate'y the Caistor beachmon
wint off to her in the Boys' lifeboat of the National Life-
qitt Institution. The boat behaved well, and her crew
had some dangerous work with her to get to the ship
amidst the breakers. One of them was severely bruised
by an oar being driven agitimit hint. The vessel is between
700 and 800 tons, and lies dry at low water. The master
lost his course, and got bewildered, not knowing where he
was, and ran the ship ashore in his bewilderment. This
lifeboat was some time since generously presented to the
institution by the subscribers to ltoutledge,s Magazine for ,1

_ A LITERARY DISCOVERY.

A
the literary world by the series of whichletters.
Pro-
fessor Owen has just made public. They e
the collection of M. Chasles, the Frenchreae fdeml
Academi-
cian, who has presented them to the library of
the Institute, where they are now open to public
inspection. The publication of the etters by
i the
Acadenzie des Sciences is a strong argument in
favour of their authenticity, though Professor
Owen cautiously refrains from expressing an opinion
on the subject. Should they prove to be genuine/
they will possess the highest interest, and
they will certainly exhibit some well-known
historical characters in a new light. The two first
are from Louis XIV. to Cassini, and the King speaks
of entrusting his correspondent with the task of
writing a life of Galileo, in which fulljustice
shall be done to the discoveries of "that great
astronomer." Louis XIV. also refers.. to a cor-
respondence between his father (Loins XIII.) and an
Italian Cardinal respecting the persecutions of
Galileo." Further on comes a letter from Galileo
himself, in which he thanks the King for the generous
invitltion brought to him by the Ambassador of
Rome, and for other proofs of his Majesty's interest
in him. All this is very different from the popularly
received notions of the grand rnonarque's toleration
and enlightenment. Not the least interesting portion

THE BISHOP OF BATH AND WELLS.

A Bath paper states that " though feeble in body,
the Bishop of Rath..and Wells is perfectly well able
to attend to business." It would be interesting to
know wherein our contemporary supposes episcopal
duties to consist. When a bishop has to be carrice,
up and down stairs, and his journeys are confined -to
a perambulation of the palace grounds in a Bath
chair, it is difficult to understand how he
can accomplish the overseeing of his diocese, which
is the essential meaning of the word "episcopacy."
When Lord Derby's attacks of the gout became more
frequent, so that he was often confined to his room.
he resigned the Premiership, although his mental
faculties were perfectly unimpaired. U.s lordship
has since then recovered and taken part in the
debates of the House of Lords. The recovery of
Lord Aucliland is impossible, yet he does not resign.
It comes to this, that what would be unpardonable
sticking to office in a statesman is perfectly justifiable
in a bishop. What wonder if the world says that
the Church can very well get on without her chief
rulers?

THE DAGENHAM DOCKS.

The unfortunate shareholders of the Dagenham
Docks are still suffering from the caprice of Sir
Thomas Freem ntle and the ten other commissioners
of her Majesty's Customs. A short time ago the
Treasury were asked to receive an influential
deputation on the matter, but declined, on the
ground that it was not in their eepartment.
It was then proposed to wait upon the
Customs' Commissioners, and several M.P's. were
prepared to back up the directors, but the commis-
sioners declined to receive M.P.'s, on the ground that
they (the commissioners) were not a political body.
The docks have now been inspected by competent
engineers, and the directors hope that, in conse-
quence of their favourable report, the commissioners
w:11 not be any longer able to refuse the necessary
license. But is it not disgraceful that a great under-
taking which has received the s:lnAion of the I. eg's-
lature should be hindered by a tanglement of red
tape in this way ? Things could hardly be worse in
Italy or France, where every step has to be won by
a liberal payment of backsheesh.

The unfortunate shareholders of the Dagenham
Docks are still suffering from the caprice of Sir
Thomas Freemmtle and the ten other commissioners
of her Majesty's Customs. A short time ago the
Treasury were asked to receive an influential
deputation on the matter, but declined, on the
ground that it was not in their department.
It was then proposed to wait upon the
Customs' Commissioners, and several M.P's. were
prepared to back up the directors, but the commis-
sioners declined to receive M.P.'s, on the ground that
they (the commissioners) were not a political body.
The docks have now been inspected by competent
engineers, and the directors hope that, in conse-
quence of their favourable report, the commissioners
will not be any longer able to refuse the necessary
license. But is it not disgraceful that a great under-
taking which has received the sanction of the Legis-
lature should be hindered by a tanglement of red
tape in this way ? Things could hardly be worse in
Italy or France, where every step has to be won by
a liberal payment of backsheesh.

LORD WILLOUGHBY D'ERESBY.

It is well for the credit of the British peerage that
there are few peers who would venture to outrage
public opinion in the way Lord Willoughby
D'Eresby has done. Everyone will remember that
scandalous trial in which he was sued by the lady
who had forruei-ly lived with him as his wife, and
whom, on coming into his title and fortune, he turned
off. Everyone will remember the Lord Chief Justice's
severe remarks upon the defendant, and the still
severer comments of the whole newspaper press. It
will be remembered, too, that the suit was referred
to arbitration, and that Mr. Vernon Harcourt decided
that the lady should receive £lOO a month, £5,000
down, and £l,OOO a year as rent. Nevertheless his
lordship, who has rn income, we believe, of -£70,000
a year, has paid only £:500 a year under the
award, and the lady has been so embarrassed
in consequence t':at -her creditors have im-
prisoned her for debt, and her health is
Low broken down. More than that, they even
demanded bait, under the pretence that she was
go -lug io inn
.away from her creditors. As this
would be running away from her income Wiewise,
one cannot help suspecting a special motive for, and
a hidden instigator of, proceedings so needlessly
harsh. In the meanwhile Lord Willoughby
D'Eresby is a second time the theme of universal
scandal, the object of universal condemnation.

TWO DEKES OF WELLINGTON.

Saturday was the centenary of the birth of the
first Duke of Wellington. As long as he lived he
used to keep up the memory of his battles by a grand
banquet at Apsley House. Most of the Waterloo
and Peninsular veterans have followed their great
captain into the other world. Yet surely the second
Duke of Wellington might have honoured May Day.
1769, by some sort of gathering on May hay, 1869.
Perhaps he feared that the contrast between the first
and the second Dukes of Wellington would be too
striking.

r ONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 4, 1869.

Mr. GLADSTONE'S avowed Lope was, fortnight
since, that the Irish Church Bill would have passed
through Committee in the House of Commons before
Whitsuntide. That confident expectation of the Prime
Minister's appears in a fair way of being realized. Last'
night, or rather this morning—for the clock was, at the
moment, just past midnight—clause thirty-eight was
disposed of immediately prior to the Committee's ad-
journment. Nice clauses—from 30 to 38, each in-
clusive---were dealt with during yesterday's sitting.
The tug of war, Lcwevcr, so far as any serious con-
t::rition went, was upon clause 32, to wit,. that relat-
ing to the eii:gularly F roblematic.d Tithe Commuta-
tion Relit-charge—a mattei called by Mr. G LA DSTONE

blending of bribery and sacrilege, and upon all side 3
looked upon with more or less bewilderment. As
originally expressed, this thir;y.second clause of the
bill empowers the landowner to purcha e the rent-
earge, by an immediate transact ion, at 22.4 years'i ur-
cLass, cr by au annual instalment for 45 ytara of 4i
per cent. of the purchase mon,-..v. Oa Mr. GLAD-
STONE'S mction„ k•wever, the time was lengthened to
52 yea's, and the instalment fixe.i at £4 9.3 per cent.,
with a dcducdou for poor rates. Now, many regard
the proposed 22} years' purchase as .an over valua-

THE N's HITSUNTIDE HOLIDAYS.

Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply to Col. French, said the
adjournment of the Louse for the holidays would in a
great measure depend upon the progress of the
committee on the Irish Church Bill; and, judg-
ing from what had all eady been done, he thought
it might be possible that the committee would close with
the week. He should, if that were so, take the report
of it on the Thursday following, and then move that the
house at its rising should adjourn juntil the Monday
week.

SPAIN.

Another outbreak, similar to the deplorable risings at
Malaga and Cadiz, has just been stifled at Seville. The
correspondent of the Conatitutionnel says the' a milita./
conspiracy bas been preparing there for some tune. A
rising in favour of a republic was contemplated. Several
battalions were implicated, and the pronunciamiento was
on the point of being declared, when the customary
informer divulged everything. The Constitutionad says
that the Republicans are systematicallygetting up risings
such as those at Cadiz and Malaga for the purpose of
preventing all "monarchical combinations" on the part
of the majority. But sedition is by no means a likely
mode of preventing the union of the Monarchists.

AN A TOLOGY TCII 1711. ED:CET.

Mr. Bright's org:n egtnds Mr. Bright's lapsul
linguee on Friday night. The Mcrning Star will not
see anything improper in one member of the Cabinet,
and that one not the chief member, declaring, with
referenc3 to the question which is, above all others,
the most important, "I" am prepared to introduce
a measure for dealing with that. question. It is a
great pity that it should be thought neccs3nry to
defend a clear blunder like this. That it wi s a
blunder the Star itself would have admitted if the
Marquis of Ilartington, cr any other scion of the
aristocracy, had committed it. It is none the less a
blunder on the part of Mr. Bright, although
pardonable in a man who has spent all but a few
weeks of his political life in fighting for his own
sword.

not, therefore, exist at the present time. The Pro-

MAZZINIAN PLOTS.

If the Wanderer of Vienna is to be believed, the great
centre of agitation at Lugano by no means confines the
distribution of its revolutionary favours to Italy. A coup-
de-main is in preparation for the benefit of the small
Eastern States. A general rising is contemplated in the
Danubian Principalities, Transylvania, Hungary, and
that portion of Christian Turkey which is not under semi-
independent rule. All these States have been "well
worked," the Wanderer assures us, by revolutionary
emissaries. Neither Kossuth, Mazzini, nor Garibaldi is
a stranger to this scheme. The apprehensions of the
Wanderer may be taken for what they are worth, but it
may be mentioned that the chances of success for the
Republicans are small indeed. The Austrian Govern-
ment is very stronffr yet the uresent moment. and the
sick man, ior an in vitoo, was never better in his life.

A more substrer~"rfete-Of revolution:fly-intelligence in
the fact that the leader of the Miltiu conspirators, Braz-

has got clear off to Lugano. But the Milanese ofEcia,ls

-of them. 3 " vigorous examination," says the Pun polo,
is now going on. The Florence correspondent of the Putr:e

had no direct share in the plot, though well aware of its
existence.
