The Musical Standard says the winter season of
Italian Opera at Covent Garden is to commence on the
18th of next month. We announced some weeks since
that there would bo an opposition opera; and the news
was immediately contradicted; it was however perfectly
true ; and it is now well known that the director of the
opposition is Mr. Wood of Cramer and Co. (Limited.)
4TH SUSSEX (LEWIS) VOLUNTEERS.—The annual com-
petitions for prizes took place on Wednesday last. We

succeeding the Cesarewitch. About 150 persons were as-
sembled at the moment the police made their entrance, and
all those against whom warrants had been previously
issued were secured and marched off to Bridewell, and
detained there until the following day, when they were
brought up at the police court and remanded.

TER REPrBLICAN OUTBUE&X IN SPAM.

The Republican insurrection seems to bo decreasing.
Important bands have surrendered themselves; but
at Valencia the insurgents still held possession of.the
town up to Thursday. They have fortified themselves with
numerous barricades, which are the more easily formed
from the narrowness of the streets, and are difficult to
remove. The most important point to notice in the in-
telligence is the strict discipline whichismaintained in the
army. Neither soldiers nor officers have passed over to the
ranks of the rebels. Such an occurrence is rare in
Spain, and affords reason to believe that so long
41.0 snombora of the Government remain united and,
rest on the moral authority of the Constitution, they will
continue masters of the situation. The discussion on the
expulsion of the Republican deputies has been adjourned
in the Cortes. At present little is thought of but the
reduction of Valencia, and the numerous reinforcements
that are sent there shew that its accomplishment will be.
no easy task. The importance which the insurrectionary
movement has assumed may be seen by the figures given
in the Official Gazette. In the province of Catalonia
alone 6,000 insurgents have laid down their arms. The
Government have some reason to fear that Madrid may be
disturbed by the popular movement, but they believe
themselves secure in the fidelity of the 10,000 troops at
their disposal.

PRICE OF GOLD.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 25f. 15a. per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of
£3 lis. 106 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold at the above price is slightly dearer in !Paris than in
London.

The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 66
days sight was 107 a per cent, on the tOth hist- At this rate there
would be a loss on the transmission of gold from the United
States.

Mr. Lyndon, the owner of Frivolity, was so much please
with the victory of his filly in the Middle Park Plate that
on the following morning he made a present to his trainer,
Joseph Dawson, of £5OO, whilst he gave Chaloner £lOO,
and the lad who looks after the filly £25. Mr. Lyndon
made other considerable presents besides.

Glen Athol (dead) is scratched for all engagements.
The assumed namo of Mr. Somerton has been registered.
The Derby will be run next year on Wednesday, June 1.
The Returned is scratched for all his engagements in

THE IRISH CHURCH.

A. somewhat sharp fight took place at the last
sitting but one of the Dublin Lay Conference. The
new Church, it need hardly be said, is to be governed
by a General Synod or convention, composed of the
clergy and the laity. A question arose as to how the
latter ought to be chosen : should all dioceses, great
or small, have an equal number of representatives, of
,liould the representation be according to populationf
On the one hand, it was put forth that Cashel,
which contains 0,000 Protestants, is not of the same
importance, and ought not to have an equal number
of delegates as Connor, which has 30,000. On the
other side it was pleaded that these thin dioceses

A decree abolishing slavery in all the Portuguese posses-

the internal necessities of the kingdom are more pressing,
discontent increases daily, and if Portuguese miseries be
not alleviated, the abolition of slavery in the colonies may
not prevent a revolution at home.

TURF POLITICS.

The Jockey Club consists of seventy-seven mem-
bers, who include two kings, three royal princes (one
of whom once wrote in the Spur), a Russian prince,
six dukes, three marquises, nineteen " belted earls,"
and seven other peers. It holds rule over a vast
interest, for about £360,000 are run for annually in
stakes and added money, and of this only £2,773
was unpaid in December for 1808. No fewer than
800 owners declare their colours, and eighteen of them
a second one. The Daily News comments upon the lower
scale of weights which was adopted in the Derby, the
Oaks, and the St. Leger of old days, And ascribes the
heavier weights now in use to the fact that jockeys
had of necessity to live a much more self-denying
life in that era of small fees and few presents, and
were kept in much harder training by riding on
their hacks with saddle-bags sometimes immense
distances, from meeting to meeting, through
the season, instead of travelling in first-class
carriages, and having perpetual invitations to
champagne suppers. Besides this, unless they are
very much misrepresented, clerks of the scale were
much less Argus-eyed, and hence some of the most
unscrupulous jockeys could help themselves to
albs. or 41bs., and even more, by the " whip
dodge," as they sat in the scales, and as
there was then, comparatively speaking, very
little money on, and less jealousy, if another
jockey sat by and saw it done he did not care
to peach. Another great change in turf politics
is the way in which foals are " forced." Just as
"young England" at 14 now knows as much
as he was wont to know when he came of age, so
foals are now expected to run at an age when their
predecessors used to be in the paddock. Lord George
Bentinck, generally considered the type of a thorough-
going Turfiite, was in no small degree responsible for
this bad habit. The truth is racing has become a
very serious business,involving a very heavy outlay,
and so early maturity and quick returns are every-
thing. Racing men now expect to make their two-
year-olds earn their corn and something more. It
now remains to be seen if the Jockey Club will
interpose to prevent these young horses from being
subject to the ordeal of the racecourse before they
are fit to bear it.

THE ARMY ESTIMATES.

The army estimates chew a reduction of exactly
11 millions sterling, and are £14,230,400 against
£15,455,400 for last year. The net estimates, after
deducting estimated exchequer extra receipts, are
£12,705,400. The reduction in the numerical strength
of the army is 11,121, against which is to be put an
increase of 880 native Indian troops. The chief
reductions are—general staff and regimental pay,
£435,100; commissariat establishment, movement of
troops, &c., .C 100,000; barrack establishments, services,
and supplies, £193,400 ; military stores, including the
manufactory departments, £341,400 ; and works and

there is an increased charge ; the chief of them is the

THE UNITED STATES.

General Schenck's Finance Bill, as passed by the House
of Representatives, is not decisive and unequivocal enough
for the Senate. It has passed the measure, but has modi-
fied it so that it now declares the faith of the United States
to be solemnly pledged to pay all obligations in coin,
unless the law authorising the issue of such obligations
expressly stipulates that they be paid in greenbacks. The
House of Representatives sanctioned a clause providing
that no redempkion should take place before maturity,
unless gold and greenbacks became of the same price. The
Senate has struck this out. If the Lower House accept
this amendment it is safe to conclude that repudiation will
be finally disposed of. The bill will then form the decisive
and unambiguous manifesto for which the world has been
waitingso long. The constitutional amendment sanctioning
negro suffrage has gone through both Houses of Con-
gress, and it remains only for the State Legislatures to
ratify it.
The Government of Columbia has conceded to the
United States the exclusive right to construct a canal
across the Isthmus of Panama, and thus connect the
Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The concession is of the
most ample character. The United States is to have full
control of the canal, and will be allowed to construct it at
any point. The treaty is to be ratified within ten months,
the surveys made within two years, the work begun
within five, and finished within fifteen years after the rati-
fication, or the charter fails. It is to run for a century
The canal will cost some 25 millions sterling. It is to
be open to all nations except belligerents.
The forty-first congress will open on Thursday with a
Republican majority of four-fifths in the Senate, but less
than two-thirds in the House of Representatives.

LOCAL TAXATION AND THE TITHE RENT CHARGE.

" A Norfolk Farmer" writes to the Daily News
pointing out a matter which will have to be con-
sidered whenever local taxation is readjusted.
He says : "In the parish in which I rent a
farm the amount of rates paid for the rector on his
tithe compositions for the seven years previous to
the commutation was computed to be £l2O a
year, and was added to the average of the seven
years' tithe compositions, and these together formed
the amount of the rent change ; and, on the average
of the thirty years and upwards since the commuta-
tion, the rates paid by the rector have been only
between £6O and £7O a year, and he has continued
and will continue to receive the £l2O a year, varying
with the average price of corn." Ile goes on to ask
if a fres!' scheme of taxation would not necessitate a
fresh valuation and commutation of the tithes, a
thing much to be avoided. The clergy, so far as they
are the titheowners, will probably reply that
while the farmer is allowed to deduct his necessary
expenses befOre his income is assessed, they are com-
pelled to pay upon every farthing, even, for instance,
upon the money which they give to their curates.

to persuade him that open diplomacy has been and is

effect, and we shall be most grateful to his friends.

HAMMERSMITH BRIDGE.

Once a year, when the two " eights" of the Uni-
versities compete in friendly rivalry upon the
Thames between Putney and Mortlake, Hammersmith
Bridge, from which the best view of the race can
be obtained, is crowded to overflowing. Hammer-
smith Bridge is a suspension bridge, and is therefore
very convenient as possessing numerous chains,
pillars, and rods, up which the more active can climb.
But these chains and rods are very inconvenient in
another way, inasmuch as they are subject to decay.
The best samples of iron, which when first made
were of the most fibrous kind, and able to bear
a heavy tensile strain, become, after some years'
exposure to concussion or vibration, quite granu-
lated, and weaker than cast-iron. It is
feared that the rods of Hammersmith Bridge
have become unable to bear the weight of an
excited crowd such as now gathers upon it each
spring. The vibration of the bridge has
already been noticed as excessive, and the secretary
to the Royal Humane Society writes asking that the
bridge should be examined and tested. There is vet
time to avert a very serious danger.

PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS.

The Marquis of Salisbury, however Conservative
in his professions, is yet evidently a Reformer in
practice. Ile has no idea of opposing a change
simply beceuse it is a change; and he now comes
forward with a measure which some years ago would
have run a fair chance of being denounced as revolu-
tionary. lle proposes that where a bill has passed
one House of Parliament, and has been stopped in the
other House from want of time for its due considera-
tion in the then session, the proceedings on such bill
may be resumed and carried on in the next session,
notwithstanding the prorogation of Parliament.
This would undoubtedly lead to an economy of time ;
and, with the provisions with which his lordship
would surround the proposed alteration, it can hardly
be objected to. The bill so passed in the second
House will not be submitted to the sovereign until
the consent of the other House has been obtained;
and proceedings on a measure cannot be resumed
until the consent of the Crown has been obtained.
Of course the measure does not apply to a dissolu-
tion of Parliament.

GENEROUS CONSTITUENTS.
So large have been the subscriptions offered to pay
Mr. Gladstone's election expenses at Greenwich, that
it has been determined to pay back to subscribers of
les. and upwards 3-7ths of their subscriptions. The
electors of hackney had commenced a subscription
to defray Mr. Charles Read's expenses, but he has
written a letter in which he says that he considers
the time spent by his supporters in his behalf more
than sufficient payment, and he therefore would
rather not accept the money.
THE TIMES" AND THE ELECTIONS.

The Times takes no note of the "Westbury elecuon
any more than it did of the Wareham and North
Derby elections. In all three cases the seat was won
by a Conservative. We do not find the same reti-
cence with regard to elections when the winner
is a Liberal ; for instance, we find the
success of the Marquis of Hartington duly
recorded in Friday's paper, while Mr. Phipps's, at
Westbury, was omitted from Saturday's issue. We
are compelled to suppose that Conservative victories
are so displeasing to•the leading journal that it has
not the patience to record them. Of course the only
result is to drive its readers to other journals for
their information. Perhaps by the next general
election the Times will have so far developed its par-
tisanship as to publish only those returns through-
out the election which are favourable to the Liberal
party.

THE UNITED STATES.

General Schenck's Finance Dill, as passed by the House
of Representatives, is not decisive and unequivocal enough
for the Senate. It has passed the measure, but has modi-
fied it so that it now declares the faith of the United States
to be solemnly pledged to pay all obligations in coin,
unless the law authorising the issue of such obligations
expressly stipulates that they be paid in greenbacks. The
House of Representatives sanctioned a clause providing
that no redemption should take place before maturity,
unless gold and greenbacks became of the same price. The
Senate has struck this out. If the Lower House accept
this amendment it is safe to conclude that repudiation will
be finally disposed of. The bill will then form the decisive
and unambiguous manifesto for which the world has been
waitingso long. The constitutional amendment sanctioning
negro suffrage has gone through both Houses of Con-
gress, and it remains only for the State Legislatures to
ratify it. •

The Government of Columbia has conceded to the
United States the exclusive right to construct a canal
across the Isthmus of Panama, and thus connect the
Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The concession is of the
most ample character. The United States is to have full
control of the canal, and will be allowed to construct it at
any point. The treaty is to be ratified within ten months,
the surveys made within two years, the work begun
within five, and finished within fifteen years after the rati-
fication, or the charter fails. It is to run for a century
The canal will cost some 25 millions sterling. It is to
be open to all nations except belligerents.
The forty-first congress will open on Thursday with a
Republican majority of four-fifths in the Senate, but less
than two-thirds in the House of Representatives.

A POSTAL TREATY WITH GERMANY.

Some time ago two representatives of the Postmaster-
General in London went to Berlin to negotiate a new
postal treaty. It was afterwards announced that an
arrangement had been made by which the carriage of a
prepaid letter between England and the North-German
Confederation was to be reduced to threepence, the new
rate to come into operation on the Ist of April. The day
was inauspiciously chosen. The correspondent of the
Daly News says that the negotiations appear to have
been Lroken off. The North-German authorities are
anxious to conclude the treaty, but difficulties are raised
at St. Martin's-lc-Grand.

springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to bo distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or anv painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth ihat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.
