VIE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 17, 1E69.

early morning, was shewn ill various ways. Tnat
Seymour had the mob with him was plain enough.
The crowd, surrounding Mr. Seely's committee-rooms,
hooted, yelled, and hissed as if they were maniacs,
The cries got fiercer, as every now and again the
figures shewed. Mr. Seymour so far behind. llis
party thought it time just after twelve o'clock
to make an effort, and he was put into a
carriage and driven through the more crowded
streets, bowing and kissing his hand as he went. The
mob cheered, and votes began to fall heavily to
him, the enthusiasm of his friends rising with
the figures. But
.Mr. Seymour was still behind,
and the " lambs " who had left work began to take
" active measures." Instead of howling, they fought;
instead of hissing, as the earlier crowd had done,
they threw stones. Soon all was confusion. Nearly
all the shops closed in the centre of the town, and so
very boisterous did the mob become that the Mayor
called out the pensioners. The retired soldiers stood
with bayonets fixed against the crowd, but failed
to restore order ; and the Mayor at last had to read
the Riot Act. Shortly after four o'clock, however,
when it was certain that Seely had won, after a little
vigorous fighting, the excitement somewhat subsided,
and there was no need for any very serious inter-
ference by the military. Mr. Seymour announced
from the committee-room window that he believed
himself to be the real victor ; one of his friends
declared he had direct proof of bribery, and peace
succeeded to the tumult, which had threatened to
become so serious.

TILE IRISH NATIONALISTS ON VIE LORDS

AND MR. BRIGHT.

The usual weekly meeting of the Irish National
Association has just been held. The subjects discussed
were the probable course of the Lords on the Church
Bill, and Mr. Bright's letter on the Lords themselves.
As to the first topic, the chairman declared that " the
bill, and nothing but the bill," and the bill in its integrity,
would be accepted in Ireland. No tampering with its
principles would be listened to. Mr. Bright's letter
was praised as "far-seeing and suggestive." The Rev.
Mr. O'Hanlon advised the holding of an as,gregate
meeting in Dublin if the Lords should venture to reject
the bill.

THAMES.

AN EXPENSIVE CAB iAR;.= Isaac D LISOD7 alias Deasy,
alias Decoy, engineer, of No. 12, Victoria-terrace, Queens-
road, Holloway, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged
with neglecting and refusing to pay Bs. cab fare to Joseph
Dolby. The defendant had given much trouble to the
complainant, whose servicos were not denied, and on in-
quiry being made after the address he had given, the
answer was, no such person lives here. As he did not
appear to the summons a warrant was granted for the
apprehension of the prisoner. This morning before six
o'clock Police-constable Stubbings, 111. 11, an officer
of the court, repaired to Holloway "in the
disguise of a gentleman," and then and there
wished Mr. Duson, alias Deasey, a good morning.
The bait took, and Dolby at the same time called out
"You have him, seize him," and the defendant was
marched off to Stepney before breakfast. The defendant
did not think he could be arrested.

The Cabman—Please your worship, railway passengers
are compelled to pay their fares before they begin their
journey ; we must get our fares how wo can.
The defendant said he would pay the cab fare.
Mr. Paget—And you must pay 13s. more.
The defendant—How is that, sir?
Mr. Paget—There is Bs. faro, 2s. for the summons, 2s
for the warrant, 3s. for attendance when applying for the
summons, and 3e. for the complainant's attendance on the
warrant, making in all 21s.
The defendant—Oh, dear. (Laughter.) Must t pay
all that ?

Mr. Paget—Every farthing of it, or go to prison for 7
days.
The defendant —Oh, dear. (Loud laughter.) To what
prison ?

Mr. Paget—To the House of Correction.
Roche, the gaoler of the court, was directed to take
charge of Mr. Duson, alias Deasey, alias Deecy, and he
soon locked him up.

THE BOSTON MUSICAL FESTIVAL.

It is to behoped that President Grant and Mr. Thornton
are enjoying themselves at Boston, whither, a cable mes-
sage informs us, they have gone to be present at the
Great Peace Festival. The programme of the festival
presents, at least, the merit of novelty. The " Star
Spangled Banner " was to be sung with the
ringing of bells, and the firing of cannon, not to
speaking of countless military bands. "My Country, 'tis
of thee," would be celebrated by a military band force of
500, the ringing of bells, and the firing of rifles and
cannon "in the distance." Finally, the "Anvil Chorus"
was to be given with an accompaniment of 100 anvils.
May the festival in no wise affect the hearing of the
distinguished statesmen who are present.

SPAIN AND CUBA.

The Imparcial, one of the leading Spanish journals,
makes a strange statement. It says that agents of the
Government have been sent about to the newspaper offices to
tamper with the Press, with a view to obtaining its advocacy
for the sale of Cuba to the United States. The Spanish
cause in Cuba is by no means hopeless, but the cost of
carrying on the present desultory war at such a distance
is too burdensome to be longer endured. The Spanish
Government think they may as well have a good round
sum for their fine possession, and they have, according to
the indignant Imparcial, invited the Press to get up an
agitation on the subject.

" THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE."

Several of the French papers are to be prosecuted for
publishing false intelligence. Why should not the semi-
official Patrie undergo the same ordeal? This journal,
which has recently taken to circulating mischievous
reports, announced the other day that General Fleury had
been appointed Ambassador at Florence, and that he
was charged with the work of cementing a half-formed
alliance between France, Austria, and Italy. This
coalition, the Patrie assured us, was to keep European
affairs in order. Coming from a source intimately con-
nected with the Government, this announcement was
generally believed ; but it seems that it is not true, and
the fine scheme which the Patrie founded upon it tumbles
to pieces.

MR. BRIGHT.

No one will be surprised that Lord Cairns has
given notice that he will interrogate the Government
with respect to Mr. Bright's most indiscreet and ill-
timed letter. The Morning Star defends it, "as (to
borrow a university phrase) in private duty bound ;"
the Paily News being under no such pressure, and
ipparently being unable to el borate an apology,
with more prudence than courage, is silent on the
matter, preferring to discuss Mr. Panting upon
corpulence. The Times Lev ercly criticises the speech,
as the Pali Mall azette had pre vi oti sly done. The Post
considers the letter most unfortunate, and that it
does not represent the opinions of the Liberal party.
The Daily Telegraph says that Mr. Bright speaks
for himself alone, and that the claims of true states-
manship should have prevented him from misrepre-
senting the Ministry, and " giving the enemy a
gratuitous advantage in the crisis of a momentous
political conflict." The Advertiser joins in the chorus
of condemnation. To the Standard and the Herald
the letter is "nuts," and the embarrassment in which
it must have placed the Ministry will go far to
atone for the defeat which is now generally supposed
to be in store for the Conservative party. Less
serious blunders than these—notably Lord Ellen-
borough's Indian despatch, Mr. Stansfeld's defence
of Mazzini, and Mr. Lowe's dealings with the reports
of the Inspectors of Education—have led to the
resignation of the blunderer.

LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 1869.

Since NAPOLEON 111. has been in power as the
supreme ruler of France, there have been rumours of
every imaginable description afloat in regard to
him, frequently rumours of the most sinister and
always of the most extravagant description. He was
a sworn member of the Carbonari. He was reso-
lutely bent upon avenging Waterloo. Ile was re-
solved upon invading England. fie was going, for
certain, to abandon the POPE to the tender mercies
of the Italian Revolutionists. He was, as a fatalist,
firmly convinced of the truth of some mysterious
prediction, to the effect that he would die in the
streets of London. As proof of his identification
with the Carbonari, the EMPEROR and his wife
were all but destroyed by that " noble gentleman '
but base assassin, Signor ORSINI. As to avenging
Waterloo—well, there it is true, Rumour, though in
in a very Delphic way, spoke very oracularly. For
has not the EMPEROR avenged Waterloo, and avenged
it magnificently, by his loyal alliance of Franc.! with
England during upwards of twenty years, iu peace
and in war, on the battle-field and in the C.,uacil
Chamber? As to his invas:oa of Eagland—so long
said to be looming in the fatur,t—will, there again,
Rumour has I.nen so far justified that he has
certainly entere 1 our capital in triumph, but
then it was as a guest, and without his
army. His abandonment of the SOVEREIGN PONTIFF
has been so entirely part and parcel of his Europeal
policy, that he it was who by the aid of his arms and
of his diplomacy brought Pius IX. back. from Gaeta
to the Eternal City ; and it was his present -Minister
of State, M. ROL'IIER, who solemnly averred, and that
not so very long ago either, that France never—ja-
mais—would abandoi Rouse to the Ravolution. A,
to his MAJESTY'S conviction, as a fatalist, that he will
eventually die, here, in the streets of London—well,
it never seems to occur to axy one of the fatuously

GENERAL MACMAHON.

The mail from Brazil brings news that an English
officer has visited the encampment of Lopez, and has
brought back despatches from General MacAlahon. This
officei:, who is the representative of the United States in
Paraguay, has not previously been heard of for many
months past. Fears were entertained for his safety, but
the news from Brazil will set them at rest.
SPAIN AND CUBA.

The Imparcial, one of the leading Spanish journals,
makes a strange statement. It says that agents of the
Government have been sent about to the newspaper offices to
tamper with the Press, with a view to obtaining its advocacy
for the sale of Cuba to the United States. The Spanish
cause in Cuba is by no means hopeless, but the cost of
carrying on the present desultory war at such a distance
is too burdensome to be longer endured. The Spanish
Government think they may as well have a good round
sum for their fine possession, and they have, according to
the indignant Impartial, invited the Press to get up an
agitation on the subject.

" THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE."

Several of the French papers are to be prosecuted for
publishing false intelligence. Why should not the semi-
official Patric undergo the same ordeal? This journal,
which has recently taken to circulating mischievous
reports, announced the other day that General Fleury had
been appointed Ambassador at Florence, and that be
was charged with the work of cementing a half-formed
alliance between France, Austria, and Italy. This
coalition, the Patric assured us, was to keep European
affairs in order. Coming from a source intimately con-
nected with the Government, this announcement was
generally believed ; but it seems that it is not true, and
the fine scheme which the Patric founded upon it tumbles
to pieces.

PARIS, June 17.

The Official Journal of this morning publishes a
telegram of yesterday's date from Saint Etienne,
stating that the troops had arrested a number of
miners who were trying to prevent others from
working.

As the troops were returning to Saint Etienne a
mob assailed them with stones and pistol shots to
rescue the prisoners. The troops fired upon their
assailants, who took to flight, leaving 33 of their
number in the hands of the troops, by whom they
were conducted to Saint Etienne.

From six to ten of the rioters were killed, and
four or five soldiers more or less injured.

THE GLOBE 711E.17 RE.

Last night " Blow for Blow" was produced at
this theatre, Mr. William Farren appearing in the
part of John Drummond, and Miss Foote in her
two characters, Mildred Cradock and Alice
Petherick. The drama was excellently mounted,
and its performance gave the utmost pleasure
to a very well-attended house. The brilliant bur-
lesque of the Corsican Brothers continues to elicit
the warmest applause. The company at this pretty
little theatre is now particularly good, and with a
judicious selection of pieces the successful issue of
the season will be a certainty. The Globe is now
certainly one of the most attractive amongst the
many theatres in the metropolis.

TILE CRISIS.

-
The Guardian of yesterday, in referring to the political
crisis, says :—" What, after all, will the Lords do?
Although during the last fortnight this has been the
constant question, the daily mutual salutation, as it
were, of all sorts and conditions of men, no one
even now attempts a confident answer—few attempt
any answer at all. The course of the debate, so far as .
has gone, points, in our view, to the probability that the
bill may pass the second reading, but will be wrecked at
a later stage, either in the 'Upper House itself or by
a collision on amendments introduced there, too large
to be accepted by the Commons. The speeches of the
Primate, of Lord Stratford—we might, perhaps, add of
Lord Carnarvon himself—tend this way. Lord Granville,
skilful and judicious, as usual, took pains to disclaim
on the part of the Government any indisposition
r
to accept alterations, even alterations of iropo•
tance, provided they did not affect the prim
ciple of the measure. We are glad to hear it ;
We
shall be glad of the opportunity of seeing how far they
will go in this direction ; and to throw out the bill in the
face of such a declaration would be merely to challeer
and wilfully precipitate a conflict which may possiblY_":
avoided altogether. But, speaking franklY,
must say that this possibility, though it exists and
ought by no means to be thrown away, is slender. Should
it be cut off now or fail hereafter, we must look folio'',
to a conflict between the two Houses and to a period 0'
great agitation and constitutional disturbance—to a resign!'
tion perhaps of the present Ministry, followed by their
speedy return to power. But to the maintenance of the
Irish Establishment we cannot look forward. The fate of
the Establishment was decided by the election of last year;
what we have now to care and provide for is the future el
the Church."

THE DIPLOMATIC SERVICE.

The diplomatic service is in a very bad state, if we
may believe what the members of it write to the
daily papers. It is, according to them, an institu-
tion conducted on the principles of jobbery. A
diplomatist writes that he has for many years paid
annually to the chief clerk, who is financial agent to
Foreign Office, a percentage on his salary, in
order that he may not be sent to an undesirable
post. This black-mail (he adds) has been levied
with the full knowledge of the heads of the depart-
ment. Another diplomatist—" An ex-Minister
Plenipotentiary" he describes himself as—writes
shewing how men fit for work are yet shelved with
pensions. He has been shelved, and from no fault
of his. " I have served my country abroad for
more than thirty years, and during this long period
I received many official acknowledgments of my zeal
and industry from successive Secretaries of State. I
am now in receipt of a pension, but I have made
frequent applications to be employed on active
service. 'Why this legitimate request has not been
granted I am not aware ; I can only say that its
refusal costs the taxpayer about £l,OOO per annum."
London, England, 1869-06-17

THE MISSING ATLANTIC STEAMER.

There is still no news of the United Kingdom. It
appears that a vessel corresponding to her build and rig
was seen some time since evidently in a disabled condi-
tion, but as no signals of distress were hoisted by her, she
was passed without any particulars being obtained. The
missing steamer left New York for Glasgow, with thirty
passengers on board, so far back as the 19th of April.

TO ADMIRERS OF LIGHT CARRIAGES.
—HART, 79. New Bond-street, has introduced some of the
lightest. handsomest, and roomiest CARRIAGES that ever were
seen. S. H. is still progressing with others on the light scale,
the style of carriage which has so long been wanting in this
country, as thousands of horses get bent over with their fore-
legs and knuckled over behind, and sore shoulders, through
having a carriage 3 cwt. too heavy. Persons wanting a carria2e
have only to describe the size of the horse. and one wil' be made
suitable: the horse will go with ease and the riders with com-
fort, as he has in' roduced a spriwz only one inch wide, made of
patent steel, not half the weight of the ordinary springs. A visit
is solicited. Testimonials to be seen. See opinions of the Press

THE VELOCIPEDE AS A MILITARY AGENT.

The Austrian Government has determined to employ
the velocipede for military purposes. It is thought that
where the country is sufficiently level the velocipede may
be used instead of a horse for bearing despatches. A
school has been set up. Why not mount infantry on
these instruments? They would save a great deal of
marching in a level country ; Lnd when the hills became
too steep, the soldier might put his knapsack on the
velocipede, and draw instead of carrying it. A regiment
mounted on velocipedes would be a sight worth seeing.

MR. ROMAINE.

Mr. Romaine, whose non-economical tendencies
are said to have rendered his retention of the office
of. Second Secretary to the Admiralty an impossi-
bility, is not to be cast altogether adrift. It is
authoritatively
stated that he has accepted the
appointment of Judge Advocate-General in India,
offered to him recently by the Duke of Argyll. Mr.
Romaine was Deputy Judge-Advocate in the
Crimea, and at the end of the war was appointed
Second Secretary to the Admiralty by Sir Charles
Wood.
