MISCELLANEOUS.

The Marquis. Cadorna has accepted the post of
Italian Minister in London, after it had been
refused by the Marquis Pepoli and Signor
MinghetLi. - Mr. Costa, the musical com-
poser, is to be knighted, by way of compensation,
we suppose, for ceasing to conduct the opera.—
The Albert Medal, of the second class, has
been conferred upon Mr. James Crowden,
one of the chief officers of Coastguard in
Scotland, for great gallantry displayed in saving life
on more than one occasion.—Mr. Wilfrid S. Blunt,
of the Legation at Berne, is to be married to Lady
Ann Noel, only daughter of the Earl of Lovelace,
and granddaughter of Lord Byron ; and Mr. Hard-
castle, M.P., to the eldest daughter of the late Lord
Campbell.
THE DURATION OF FUTURE WARS.
-

Colonel Hamley's letter denying that future wars
will be short, has attracted some attention, and has
been much criticised. Those who deny his conclu-
sions point to the great preparations which have
been made of late for battle both on land and sea,
call attention to the various improvements and the
wonderful inventions which will in future
make war so very terrible, and ask if the blow
when struck will not be one of such tremendous
Impact that the nation which receives it must
inevitably collapse. To this Colonel Hamley replies
that it will be absurd to deny that a strong Power
will be able to subdue a weak one more speedily ;
but he did not refer to an unequal contest in saying
that wars would still be long ones. lie illus-
trated his meaning by speaking of France
and Prussia. If either of them endea-
voured to
give the tremendous blow, the other
would be ready to
ward it off, and to strike back
again with more effect on the exhausted adversary.
What, then, is the use of these great improvements ?
The answer is obvious. War cannot be controlled
beforehand by agreement as to what weapons may
be used. Each belligerent must obtain and use the
best it can get ; otherwise it would be better perhaps
to have less destroying arms. Or it would be as well
to have the question fought out by a duel, by the
most expert swordsman on each side.

g, near Liege, still continues.
The great strike at Serain
The men employed on some of the minor works
have resumed their duties, but those engaged in
the Messrs. Cockerell's establishment still hold out. Bands
of workmen bang about the village, but no further dis-
turbances have taken place. A strong military force,
under the command of a general, is on the ground. The
Inclependance Beige says that symptoms of a settlement
present themselves. When the affair is at end, we may,
perhaps, learn the cause of it, for at present it is a mys-
tery. The reports of men killed seem to be incorrect, for
hitherto but one man has died of his wounds.

LONDON, THURSDAY, APRIL 15, 1869.

Whether the House of Commons, in Committee
on the Irish Church Bill, will tolerate the accumula-
tion of threatened obstructions in the way of legisla-
tion in regard to that particular measure will be
rendered apparent now very speedily. The proceed-
ings of to-night will indicate the mood in which the
I serried ranks of the majority are prepared to meet
their antagonists. It is not simply that, in his capa-
city as Leader of the Opposition, the ex-Premier has
`laid upon the table of the House an extraordinary
variety of minute amendments. Upon the very
threshold of anything like a duscussion in Committee
there are other impediments lying right in the way—
placed there by one or another of that, to a certain
extent isolated class, the class of independent repre-
sentatives. One of these the member for Kirkcaldy,
1 Mr. ROGER ArrouN, is lying in wait in readiness to
start forward immediately on the issuing of the order
of the day for the Committee on the Irish Church
Bill, to move—" That it be an instruction to the com-
mittee that they have power to dissolve the corpora-
tion of the trustees of the College of Maynooth, and
to provide that no money be paid over to the said
trustees, but that only compensation fairly due to the
professors and students consequent on the loss suf-
fered by them by the withdrawal of the Maynooth
giant be paid to them by the Commissioners ap-
pointed by the Bill, in the same manner and accord-
ing to the same principles as is provided by the Bill
with regard to the incumbents of the Anglican Church
and the recipients of the Regium Donum." That is
obstruction No. 1 prepared by the hon. member for
Kirkcaldy. There is another threatened by Sir
GEORGE JENKINSON, the member for North Wilt-
shire, in the shape of an amendment to Mr.
AYTOLTN'S Instruction to the Committee. And,
added to these two, there is a distinct deter-
mination on the part of the irrepressible champion
of the cause of No Surrender, the member for North '
Warwickshire, to -more no E hilly-shally amendment
whatever, but point-blank, "That this House will
upon this day six months resolve itself into the said
Committee." Now, in the presence of all these
more or less formidable obstructions in the way of
the Committee, it certainly behoves the immense
Liberal majority at the back of Mr. GLADSTONE and
his colleagues to see that there shall be be no merely
frivolous lengthening out of the labours of the House
in Committee to the frittering away-simply of the time
of the imperial legislature without any conceivable
advantage being thereby secured to the cause or to
London, England, 1869-04-15

THE CORN DUTY.

Mr. Frederick S. Corrance, the hon. member tor
East Suffolk, is very angry with Mr. Lowe for seeking
to repeal the duty on corn. After claiming to be the
promoters of free trade, the Conservatives could not
in all conscience raise again the cry of " Protection.'
Mr. Corrance does not do so, but argues that the
proposed repeal will not benefit the consumer. If it
simply goes to increase the incomes of corn dealers,
Mr. Lowe is legislating for a class, and doing harm
to the community. This, Mr.Corrance says, he is doing ;
and, writing to the Times, calls upon the payers of
income tax to protest against it.

CAPITAL PPNISIDIENT.

The first session of the Householders' Parliament is
not to pass without an attempt to procure the aboli-
tion of capital punishment. Mr. Gilpin, Mr. Had-
field, Mr. M.Laren, and
.Sir John Gray have prepared
a bill on the subject, which seeks to substitute a life
sentence for the one of death. The case of Wilt-
shire, who, while in prospect of death a week thence,
attempted to murder his warder, is not likely
materially to aid these reformers.

VIE COILING COTE T.

Mr. Pitmen's amendments of the Irish Church
Bill having been thoroughly discussed, Ministerialists
expect that the measure will pass through the
Commons even more rapidly than they had at first
hoped. They consider the amendments so absurd
and impracticable, they hold that Mr. Disraeli has
bungled so tremendously, that every one of his
proposals will be rejected by a large majority. More
than that, they believe that his own party will be
broken up in consequence of the nature of the
amendments. These virtually admit both disendow-
ment and disestablishment, and so the "No Sur-
render" section, of whom Mr. Newdegate is the type,
find themselves betrayed. At the same time the
moderate section whom Lord Stanley represents, and
who consider that a considerable portion of
the funds ought to be taken from the
Church and applied to other than ecclesi-
astical uses, will be unable honestly to support
propositions which actually leave no surplus at all, if
even they do not make the Irish Church a creditor
instead of a debtor. It is noteworthy, by the way,
that both Mr. Newdegate and Lord Stanley were
absent from the meeting at Lord Lonsdale's. Mr.
Gladstone himself proposes some amendments to the
bill, which, of course, do not involve any concession
of principles, but are intended only to carry out
those principles more effectually. According to
the Owl, Ministers, after consideration of Mr.
Disraeli's amendments, " confidently believe that by
Whitsuntide the measure, without any material
alterations, save what may arise from concession on
their part, will be ready for presentation to the
House of Lords."

TRADES UNIONS AND TEE GOVERNMENT.
The Telegraph announces that the Government
has declined to take any legislative action upon the
report of the Trades -Union Commission, but that it
has given its support to a 'Leasure which has been
introduced by Messrs. Hughes and Mundella. This
bill was issued yesterday. It contains sixteen clauses,
repeals the Combination Acts, and gives protection
to the funds of unions. In the place of the Combi-
nation Acts the bill makes associations for the corn-
sion of of'fences against tie common law illegal.
Various other alterations axe made with the object
of giving greater freedom to the unions, and facility
for registration.

CONFLICT WITH A MADMAN.—A Pole, 23 years
of age, who had boon confined at Charauton for mental
alienation, contrived three days back to escape. By some
means he obtained possession of a loaded six-chamber re-
volver, and taking refuge in the shop of his brother-in-
law, a bookseller in t he Rue de Tournon, threatened to shoot
anyone that approached him. All at once ho dashed out into
the street, just as three sergeant de vile, who had been
sent for, were approaching. One of them sprang boldly
forward and threw his arms around the madman, who,
however, in his struggle, managed to fire the six shots,
wounding ono of the officers in the hand and his captor in
the thigh. The latter, however, did not loose his hold,
but with the assistance of his companions conveyed the pri-
soner to the station.

THE GREAT CENTRAL GAS COMPANY
FRAUDS.

Some misapprehension seems to exist with reference
to Higgs and the amount of his frauds and de-
ficiencies, which have been stated at £50,000 and even
.230,000. It is now feared that £150,000 will hardly
cover the full extent of his depredations upon the
company and the public. Not only have large sums
received for coke never found their way to the company's
bankers, but forged debentures to a considerable amount, it
is said, are afloat, upon which Higgs regularly paid the
dividends as they fell due in order to keep their issue from
the company's knowledge. These debenture bonds, it
is affirmed, although issued fraudulently, bear the bond
fide signatures of the directors and the common seal of the
company. On the eve of his departure, Higgs offered to
pay a wine merchant in Coleman-street an account of
£3OO, and for this purpose drew a cheque for £OOO, and it
being past banking hours, he got the wine merchant tc
cash it and give him the balance. His estate will realise,
it is said, about 230,000. This the creditors have sought
to appropriate for the benefit of all concerned ; and the
gas company, it is said, are willing to abandon criminal
proceedings and go in with the other creditors and share in
this sum. It is believed that Higgs has sought refuge in
Spain.
At the Judges' Chambers, on-,Wednesday, hefore Mr.
Justice Keating, a case relating to Benjamin Higgs, the
absconding clerk of the Central Gas Company was heard.
The Guarantee Society has seized his property at
Teddington, where he kept a well-appointed esta-
blishment ; and the plaintiff in this action, Mr.
Krihl issued an execution and put in an officer.
There were several other claimants to the property, but
the chief point at issue was the dispute between the
Guarantee Society and the execution creditor. The case
was ordered to stand over till Monday, when the several
claims would be heard.

COMMENCEMEN 7 OF TERM—This Day

Easter Term commenced to-day, on which occasion her
Majesty's Judges breakfasted with the Lord Chancellor,
and afterwards proceeded in procession to their respective
courts at Westminster, &c.

On the arrival of the Judges at Westminster a large
number of persons assembled to witness the ceremony of
the Judges opening the respective courts. The applica-
tions made to their lordships to-day consisted of motions
of no great importance.

MADAME RACHEL AND HER BAIL,

(THIS DAY.)

To-day, the application to admit Madame Rachel to bail,
came before the Judge at Chambers. It will be recollected
that Mr Lewis, on the part of the prosecution, objected to
one of the parties tendered, Mr. West, optician, of Coventry-
street, and au adjournment was directed in order that
certain inquiries might be made.

his Lordship, after hearing the parties, refused to ac-
cept the bail tendered. Thu result of the present applica..
tion will doubtless prevent an, further steps being taken
to procure the release of Mdme. Rachel, who will thus
remain at Nowgate until the result of the application for a
writ of error is known.

LAW REFOltlf.

The Owl makes the important announcement that
the first report of the Judicature Commission will very
shortly be published. Among its recommendations
will be found a proposal for the consolidation of all
the courts, both of law and equity, into one supreme
court, which will be divided, after the Scotch plan,
into chambers or divisions. It will also propose that
pleadings be simplified, and official referees attached
to the various courts as scientific assessors, following
the recommendations of the Patent Law Commission
of 1864. The Home Circuit is condemned, and
the remodelling of other circuits is proposed.
A now Court of Appeal is to be constituted
to take the place of the Exchequer Chamber, Privy
Council, and Chancery Appeal Courts. Lastly, all
the recommendations of the House of Commons'
Committee of last year on Common and Special
Juries are adopted. We believe that the most
important features of this scheme are due to Lord
Cairns.

An attempt is to be made to obtain for the whole
of the legal profession a share in the funds of the

Inns of Court, which are now appropriated entirely
by the barristers. To this end an inquiry will be
urged into the nature of the grants under which the
legal universities hold their property.

NAVAL ITEMS.
The Owl states that the flying squadron will leave
England about the 10th of June for Bahia, where it
will be joined by the Phcebe, from the West Indies ;
thence to Rio de Janeiro, and on to the Cape of
Good Hope, which it will leave about the end of
September for Melbourne and Sydney, visiting New
Zealand about the middle of January, reaching
Japan in March, and Vancouver's Island at the end
of April ; thence home, touching at Honolulu,
Tahiti, Valparaiso, and the Falkland Islands, so as
to reach England by the middle of October of next
year.

EMIGRATION.
On Tuesday a remarkable scene took place at the
St. Pancras Station of the Midland Railway, when a
body of artisans and labourers took their departure
for Canada. This movement was in continuation
of an experiment made last year, when
some artisans from the East-end were despatched to
America. In consequence of a favourable report
from Mr.Dixon,the emigration agent to the Canadian
Government, the committee appointed for the purpose
resolved to further the work this year. Great care
was taken in the selection of the emigrants, the can-
didates being greatly in excess of the means of the
committee. It was satisfactory to-find that all the
travellers were delighted at the prospect before
them, and seemed full of confidence. As many
as 397 persons started on Tuesday for the New
World under the auspices of the committee. As
the train left the station, a ringing cheer burst forth
from the emigrants, which was returned from the
crowd on the platform. A second party is expected
to follow very speedily.

THE POPE'S JUBILEE.

The Queen of England, the Emperor of Russia, and the
King of Prussia were amongst the non-Catholic sovereigns
who sent messages of congratulation to the Pope on the
occasion of his jubilee. In the list of Catholic sovereigns
occurs the name of the " Empress of Mexico." On
Monday his Holiness received more than fifty
telegrams of congratulation from the principal
dioceses, convents, or Catholic committees abroad. The
Nuncio at Madrid forwarded the compliments of the
chiefs of the Spanish Government. In the morning
the Pope visited the hospice of Santa Anna, and prayed
in the church where he celebrated his first mass; then he
received several of the older pensioners of the establishment.
In the evening his Holiness went to St. Agnes Without the
Walls, where a memorable accident occurred on the 12th
April, 1855. In returning, the pope passed through the
city, which was splendidly illuminated in commemoration
of his return from Gaeta on the same date in 1850. The
Osservatore says that enthusiastic ovations greet his Holi-
ness everywhere. He is in excellent health.

The German Catholics have been conspicuous in their
demonstrations of respect on this occasion. Very large
donations of money have come from Germany. An
address has likewise been sent. This monster testimonial
is signed by the King of Saxony and his family, fourteen
and about one million names of
other princes, 150 nobles,
lesser note. The sheets on which these signatures are
written have been bound in.a magnificent volume.

SUCCI3S OF THE CUBIN INSURRECTION.

re the Spanish Cortes, on Monday, Marshal Serrano, in
reply to a question, acknowledged that the Government
had received unfavourable news from Cuba. The situa-
tion was becoming worse. The great distance of the
island from Spain, the emptiness of the Spanish Treasury,
the rugged nature of the country, and the aid given by
the Americans, are doing their work. The Spanish
Government is 'evidently preparing to part with the pearl
of the Antilles.

fused to give his fiat. The result of which is that, with-
out other steps aro taken to obtain a remission of the
sentence, Sheward will be executed on the day already
fixed.
