ARCHDEACON bENISON.

The Archdeacon of Taunton has a vigorous pen,
and being very angry with the House of Lords, he
knows how to show it. He writes the following
letter to the John Bull :
" It is commonly said that the House of Lords has dons
well. Now observe what two principal things the House
of Lords has done. 1. It has affirmed disestablishment--
that is, it has affirmed that 'the State' is of no particular
religion. 2. It has affirmed concurrent endowment'—
that Is, it has affirmed the sustentation of what the Bishop
of Oxford calls our common Christianity,' against the
gAtRt44911.4411c41340q11k4-agriglit-eadebtiltithit,--
Primitive and Catholic. Can two worse things be clone
by any legislative body?"

TILE FRENCH ATLANTIC CABLE.

A third telegraphic cable between America and Europe
has been successfully laid, and will soon, no doubt,
be actively at work. As yet, however, the French
Atlantic Cable has no locus standi in the United States.
A local State Legislature has indeed given permission for
it to be landed ; but this power is claimed from Congress
alone, and thus it is possible for the permission
to be rescinded. Of course such an extreme course
is not probable. The cable must be as useful to the
United States as to France ; and, moreover, the leading
New York papers are against the Attorney-General in his
theory that a State Legislature cannot authorise the land-
ing of a foreign cable. But the question, many think, is
matter for a compromise. The French Government have
given the concession of this cable for twenty years, and
thus no American company can start a line to France. If
the French cable be allowed in America; any American
cable that might be designed ought to be permitted in
France.

The Secretary of the French Transatlantic Com-
pany writes to say that he anticipates no difficulty from
Congress in this matter. The cable will be landed under
the general telegraph law of the United States, which no
more prohibits the landing of a cable than a bale of goods.
The State Legislature of Massachusetts has given special
permission in addition to this general law. It is not likely
that Congress will act against either this or any other
company in such a matter.

BATTLE IN CUBA.

Notwithstanding the enfeebled condition of the Spanish
and insurgent armies, they have managed to get through
another engagement. The fight between the Spaniards
and the troops under the American General Jordan appears
to have been of some importance. It lusted eight hours,
and resulted in the defeat of the Spanish forces, who
commenced the attack. The loss of the insurgents was
200 killed and wounded. Twenty of the dead were
Americans.

THE HAPPY DAY.

The celebration of the fourth of July—the anniversary
of the declaration of American independence—is rapidly
becoming a nuisance in the United States. It is all very well
to rejoice in honour of this great occasion; but unfortunately
the Americans employ such quantities of gunpowder,
fireworks, and such immense bonfires in their rejoicings,
that property to a large amount is burnt every year on

this happy day. The New Yuri.: Times calculated upon a
loss of between one and two million dollars this year, and
the estimate was not far wrong. The rejricings were as
enthusiastic and the fires as numerous as ever. As to
eyes blinded, fingers blown off, and the like, they are
beyond compute.

A REFORMED CHARACTER.

That Ritualist of Ritualists, Dr. Frederick George
Lee, has turned over a new leaf. Forgetting all about
the very ornate services at All Saints', Lambeth,
forgetting that he is the editor of the Directorium
Anglicanum, with all its numerous illustrations of
vestments; he writes to the John Bull denouncing the
Ritualists, "as they are called," for being "engrossed
in discussing the grave question of the cut of a
clergyman's robe, while a broad revolutionary prin-
ciple is being welcomed by a brawling rabble, and
silently applied to our much-loved country by
adroit demagogues. In the State (Dr. Lee goes
on to say) some of our hereditary rulers are engaged
in the exalted, noble, and dignified sport of shooting
tame pigeons, which have been previously mutilated,
in order to kill time. Thus it was with the nobility
and clergy before the French Revolution. llistory
often reproduces itself."

The course of exchange at New York on London for bills atCo

TIDE UNIVERSITY OP LONDON.

No University examination is stricter than that of
the University of London. Nearly one-half the
candidates at the last trial for degrees failed, only
772 obtaining honours out of 1,430 who tried.
There were, of course, many grumblings; the
students complained that the subjects of examina-
tion had not been accurately defined, and that the
line adopted for awarding places had been too hard
and faSt. Earl Granville, the Chancellor of the
University—whose speech at the annual meeting
is generally looked forward to—this year occu-
pied a great deal of time in defending the
course adopted. He explained the large number of
rejections by saying that a great many of the candi-
dates had endeavoured to qualify for them by read-
ing at night after their other occupations. He did
not think that they could compete with others who
gave their whole time to education. The educational
status of the country, moreover, was very
unsatisfactory, and this had caused a great
many of the failures. In one matter the London
University had been foremost and successful. It
had solved the subject of Ltdies' degrees. At the
first examination it was estimated that not more than
three ladies would present themselves, but it was
satisfactory to find that the number who came up
and passed was one that was equally classical and
suggestive, viz., 0; and the fact had been
established which had been questioned before, that
the female sex were quite as capable of qualifying
themselves as the male.
London, England, 1869-05-14

THE CHURCH REFORM SOCIETY.

The Church Reform Society held its meeting this year
at Willis's Rooms, under the chairmanship of Lord Ebury.
Its object is fourfold:—The amendment of the Book of
Common Prayer, under proper authority; the reform of
the Ecclesiastical Courts ; the reform of abuses connected
with patronage; the modification of the Acts of Uniformity,
and the complete revision of the Book of Canons. In
addressing the meeting, Lord Ebury said that he
regretted that no alteration had been effected in the
service for the Burial of the Dead, which caused such
great scandal. The objects which had been gained by the
trial of Ritualism might be traced (though not directly) to
the operation of the society, and here, again, was great
encouragement to continue persevering against apparently
insurmountable difficulties. His lordship urged the
members to go on in the new association hopefully and-
judiciously, and they might be assured of success; and
concluded by calling upon the secretary, who read the
report and balance-sheet for the past year, which chews the
receipts to be 2379 2s. 6d., and the expenditure £378 2s.
10d., thus leaving a balance of 19s. Bd. The meeting
was afterwards addressed by the Rev. C. Glyn, Messrs.
T. Chambers, C. Bushton, and other gentlemen, and an
illuminated address was presented at the close to the
chairman.

A FRENCH CONSUL IMPRISONED IN RUSSIA•

The German journals labour under the apprehension of
a serious dispute between France and Russia. The French
Consul at Odessa is President of the French Benevolent
Society. A ball was recently given by this society.
A Russian count presented himself, and being
accompanied by a lady who was not his wife, but whom he
was desirous of passing off as such, the consul, in his capa-
city of president, felt it his duty to exclude him. For
this offence the Correctional Tribunal at Odessa has just
sentenced the consul to a week's imprisonment. The
German papers which report this story say that under
certain conditions such an incident would amount to a
casus belli, but they do not state that these " certain con-
ditions" are involved in the present case.
London, England, 1869-05-14

MINISTERIAL CRISIS IN ITALY.

The Piedmontese politicians have united with General
Menabrea's supporters, and a coalition Cabinet is now in
course of formation. The union of the two parties was
accomplished very satisfactorily, but the construction of
the Ministry involves great difficulties, and it is hardly
necessary to state what these difficulties are. General
Menabrea's party does not want the new comers to
obtain too much power, and the recruits will either
have what they call a fair share, or they will retire again.
Signor Ferraris, leader of the Piedmontese, demands the
Portfolio-of the Interior, and this the Tuscan, Menabrea's,
party are very unwilling to give up. Signor Mordini,
too, was mentioned for a place, but the King is opposed
to this politician on account of his Garibaldian antece-
dents. Things like these must always be when states.
men attempt the work of conciliation.

-
hoitse for the sale of " spiritual"—(lotti laughter) —liquor
was to be erected in this park ?
Mr. LAYARD said he was glad to answer the question
The working classes resorted to the park in great num-
bers, and he thought it would be an advantage if they
could get something better than the sour ginger beer
and stale buns which were now the only things they could
obtain. He had therefore thought it deniable to have a
house in the park at which they could get some sub-
stantial refreshment without going to the low pot-houses
which abounded in the neighbourhood. He had taken
precautions that would effectually prevent tke sale of
"spiritual "-- (laughter)—liquors.

_
IRISH CHURCH BILL.
The house then proceeded to consider the now clauses
proposed to be inserted in the bill.
Sir R. PALMER moved a clause providing that the An-
nuities granted under the Act shall not be forfeited because
the annuitants do not consent to alterations which may be
made in the Articles of the Church.
Mr. BALL supported the proposition.
Mr. GLADSTONE suggested that the point should be
left to the House of Lords to settle, to which Sir R. Palmer
agreed.

Various unimportant alterations were made, and tho
third reading was fixed for May 31, Mr. Gladstone ex-
plaining that it would be necessary to recommit the bill to
introduce a stamp clause.

The house then went into Comniittee of Ways and
Means on the postponed Budget resolutions.
The complicated details of the resoluthms were under
discussion until after midnight. Various suggestions were
made to modify the proposed duties on servants, carriage;
and armorial bearings, but none of them were pressed to
a division. In the end the resolutions were agreed to,
with no alteration but ono proposed by the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, raising the weight of the fonr-wheelers,
under the 15x. duty, from 3cwt. to 4cwt.
The house adjourned at five minutes past one o'clock
until Thursday, the 27th.

SHOCKIAG COLLIERY FATALITr.

On Thursday morning a colliery accident occurred at
the No. 1 Worthington Pit of the Norley Coal Company,
near Wigan, where for some time past sinking operations
have been in progress to reach the cannel coal. This
should lie at a distance of 560 yards from the surface, but
the workmen have now descended 600 yards, and the
seam has not yet been found. The work, however, has
been progressing vigorously ; two parties of labourers,
known as the day and night shifts, being employed, and
until Thursday morning they had proceeded most satis-
factorily. The day shift men, seven or eight in number,
descended the shaft at six o'clock, and a little before eight
all preparations were made for the firing of a shot. The
bulk of the party were drawn to the surface, and three
others, named Richard Hanson, William Ince, and
Nathaniel Mather, were left below to superintend the
ignition of the fuse. The hoppett or bucket was being
lowered to bring these also above ground, when suddenly
the crank of the engine snapped in two, and the rope thus
released frr•m all control rushed down the shaft with
amazing velocity, and then parting from the drum fell
into the pit. Preparations were at once made for ascer-
taining the extent of the damage below, but a long time
passed before they could be completed. Two of the men
had been recovered alive. One of them had been covered
by the first coil of rope which fell, and was so saved ; the
other crawled into the bucket.

OUTBREAK IN PORTUGAL.

Irmo mysterious details of a conspiracy at Lisbon are
given oy tne I'ortuguesc journals. It is to be presumed that
this plot was concocted by some discontented spirits who
conceived that the deplorable state of the national finances,
and the recent very unpopular proceeding of the King in
reducing the number of seats in the Chamber of Deputies,
afforded an excellent opportunity for an insurrection. The
conspirators attempted to get - the army on their side.
Some regiments seem to have been really disaffected. One
battalion was actually landed from a vessel on board of
which it had been embarked. The railway and telegraph
lines were cut in all directions. But all this mischief came
to nothing. The ringleaders ss ere arrested, the disaffected
troops were disarmed, and the battalion which had been
landed was again conducted on board ship, and placed
under the guns of a corvette. An inquiry is to be insti-
tuted, and, considering that nobody seems to know any
of the origin or the nature of the plot, it is certainly
zeeded.

A "RAILWAT THROUGH SWITZERLAND.

The question of a railroad across the St. Gothard mann.
tain interests more or less all the States of Central
Europe. North Germany is anxious for a direct route
through Switzerland to Italy. Italy is not less desirous of
a straight line to North Germany. But Austria has lines
round the east of Switzerland, and France has the Mont
Cenis line on the west. Both these would be injured by
the great work through the centre of the Alps, and a cer-
tain agitation has therefore been raised in France and
Austria against the St. Gothard project. But the new
line is favoured by the Swiss Government, and it is likely
that it will be made.

COLONEL IIEND ER EON.

The new Chief Commissioner of Police is doing;
hii Wbrk well. He is initiating prosecutions on ail
hands against the abominable persons who wiring
Sir Richard Mayne's later and feebler years were
allowed to violate the law with impunity. A
woman living
.in Rowland-street has just been
convicted of selling indecent prints, and has been sen-
tenced to 18 months imprisonment with hard labour,
a punishment she is not likely to forget. The sei-
zure of the " Deptford Spec" has had one unfortu-
nate result. A tailor who had invested in it has, in
consequence of the funds being seized, committed
suicide. If he had lost his money in the ordinary
course of the " Spec,' he would, no doubt, have
committed the same crime. The best way to pre-
vent such tragedies in future is to suppress the came
of them.
London, England, 1869-05-14

EMIGRATION PROSPECTS:

The official documents in reference to the prospects of
the dockyard artisans and others who emigrate to Canada
chew that there is not that large demand for mechanics
which ought to exist before an indiscriminate deportation of
unemployed takes place. The Governor-General of Canada
has distinctly warned the home Government against
raising " undue expectations " with regard to the facilities
which can be afforded to emigrants. A grant of land is
of no use at all to a man who cannot sell it and has no
means of bringing it under cultivation. The artisan
cannot lay down his tool and turn himself at once into a
successful farmer. In New Brunswick land may, indeed,
be had almost for nothing ; fifty acres may be had for
ten days' labour on the roads. The agricultural poor,
with sons able to work, would find this an advantageous
opening. But to the town-bred artisan fifty acres of land
would too often prove a " white elephant." He would be
very much puzzled to get his living off them. The
Government of the prorinre of Toronto have sent a special
commission over to England for the purpose of giving
working men all the information they need.

THREATENING NOTICES POSTED IN

IRELAND.

A threatening notice found posted in two places in the
town of Bells, county Meath, has caused some agita-
tion in the neighbourhood. It is of an unusually elaborate
kind, and possibly not "genuine." It runs : " Notice—
Important to landlords and oppressors. You are hereby
requested totake notice that each county in Ireland repre-
sented itself at a congress lately convened, where it-was
decreed by 63 Ayes, in a house of 85, that Irishmen are
bound by this act of congress to prevent any furtheroppres-
sion inflicted on them by you. Since we cannot find protec-
tion by constitutional means we must only have recourse
to the revolver to protect ourselves. Had we taken
such a course twenty years ago, we were not
exiled to-day. Let it be clearly understood that
for the future we will not suffer to be evicted or trampled
on in any way while one ounce of lead is sufficient for
any tyrant. Guarded landlords will not deter us from
this course. We trust there will be no further cause
given in this country by evictions, land jobbing, or other-
wise, as we would regret to have to take the defensive.—
By order."
London, England, 1869-05-14

E!vilGß.

CTS,

The official documents in reference to the prospects of
the dockyard artisans and others who emigrate to Canada
shew that there is not that large demand for mechanics
which ought to exist before an indiscriminate deportation of
unemployed takes place. The Governor-General of Canada
has distinctly warned the home Government against
raising " undue expectations " with regard to the facilities
which can be afforded to emigrants. A grant of land is
of no use of all to a man who cannot sell it and has no
means of bringing it under cultivation. The artisan
cannot lay down his tool and turn himself at once into a
successful farmer. In New Brunswick land may, indeed,
be had almost for nothing ; fifty acres may be had for
ten days' labour on the roads. The agricultural poor,
with sons able to work, would find this an advantageous
opening. But to the town-bred artisan fifty acres of land
would too often prove a " white elephant." He would be
very much puzzled to get his living off them. The
Government of the province of Toronto have sent a special
commission over to England for the purpose of giving
working men all the information they need.

WESTMINSTER.

IMMINENT DANGER OF RAILWAY PASSENGERS.—Thos.
Collard, aged 16, and James Irving, aged 15, were brought
to this court charged with placing passengers by the
Metropolitan Railway and guards in imminent danger, by
throwing bricks and heavy stones upon the Metropolitan
Railway, while carriages were passing yesterday afternoon.
James Thomas, a constable of the Metropolitan Rail-
way, placed near the Emmanuel Hospital, at Westmin-
ster, in plain clothes at three yesterday afternoon, owing
to a number of missiles having been previously thrown
at carriages on the railway, said he saw the two prisoners
and another throw stones and push bricks off a wall upon
which they were seated. A train was passing at the time
at which they threw them.

Air. Arnold—ls this place where the atones were thrown
a thoroughfare?
itness—lt is not.

Thl police-superintendent of the railway explained
that the wall was enclosed, and that the boys had no Lusi-
ness there. Ile produced a large bag of bricks and stones
picked up from the railway. There were passengers who
were endangered by the missiles.
Robert Hopper, 51 13, proved seeing the accused fling
stones as the train passed. The third boy escaped.
Mr. Arnold m tint at length into the law of the subject.,
and pointed out 501119 difficulties wh:ch suggested them_
rely, s to his mind. In order to give time to determine what
course should be pursued the accused were remanded.
