LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 16, 1869.

Last evening, as on the previous evening, the
House of Lords was crowded with a brilliant as-
semblage of peers in the body of the hall, of
peeresses in the aide galleries, of statesmen on the
steps of the throne, of ambassadors from the ends
of the earth. On Monday the interest calling
together these motley witnesses and auditors of a
great historical _discussion was awakened by
the simple fact of the debate's commencement or
inauguration. Yesterday the gathering together
again of very nearly the same assemblage was
attributable to the expectation excited by the simple
fact of the intimation in the public journals that
Lord LYrrON had, at the close of the pre-
vious sitting, moved the adjournment. As the
Times of this morning remarks, in reference to the
account of yesterday's proceedings, "A concourse
as great or perhaps greater than that which
assembled on Monday flocked to hear the Poet,
Novelist-, Statesman, Olator, who was understood to
have the right to begin, and many among the oc-
cupants of the Peeresses' Galleries must have been
disappointed when they found Lord GREY supplant-
ing Lord LYrroN in re-opening the discussion. Nor
was Lord (Rpm's speech,- adt's our contemporary,
"of a kind to mitigate their disappointment." The
whole debate of last night, for that matter, with one
radiant exception, was a long series of dull and
fatiguing disappointments. Earl GREY was perhaps
just a trifle less tedious than usual, and at moments
a trifle less maddeningly impa:isive in his delivery.
As for the ArchLishop of DtTBLIN, who followed him,
we have seldom in either House of Parliament lis-
tened to a more ludicrous or a more lugubrious exhi-
bition. His Grace might just as well have cried "scissors
to grind 0," like the tinker in CANNING'S " Friend
1)of Humanity," as have whined, as he did, in a se-

TIIE OVEREND AND GURNEY TRIAL.

The directors of Overend, Gurney, and Co. are,
with one exception, very backward in coming forward
to prove their innocence. That exception is Mr.
Gordon, who has done all that he can to accelerate
the trial, but finds no such readiness on the part of
his colleagues.

NOTTINGHAM ELECTION.

It is needless to say that .the nomination at Not-
tingham was a lively affair. It was very lively.
Neither of the two candidates could make himself
heard beyond the reporters' desk, and the affair was
as great a farce as any nomination that has ever taken
place, which is saying a good deal. Mr. Seely
shewed plenty of good humour, and made a point
by directing attention to the ruined Castle - of
Ntachiloseiteurtusisicelsh scenes of

his speech in a tone of great irritation. First of all.
he was very angry because Sir Robert Clifton's old
agent, " Jemmy " Aelind, had gone over to " No.
30," the regular Liberals. Then he was very indig-
nant because someone held up a bill with the words
" ls. Od. in the pound," which, be said, was a false
accusation, because he had promised that if he
were given time he would pay 20s. in the
pound. Ile then had to explain away his
former spee:hos made when he was an advanced
Liberal candidate at Southampton, and which one of
the Nottingham
„journals had unkindly republished
that morning. Exhausted by the effort, he drank
somo brandy, and this reminded him of the Permis-
sive Bill, and of the remarkable statement which he
had made as Recorder when addressing the grand
jury of Newcastle-on-Tyne, a speech in which
he had denounced the liquor traffic as the
great source of all the misery, crime, and
poverty of the land, a speech so emphatic that the
United Kingdom Alliance have constantly quoted it
in their publications. Claiming to be the successor
of Sir Robert Clifton, the idol of the publicans, he
had to explain away this speech also, and iu --doing
so denounced the Maine Law, of which-he had
always been considered a supporter.,_ In conclusion.

COLLIERY EXPLOSIONS.

Mr. George Fowler, writing from Hucknall Col-
liery, Nottingham, points out that we are altogether
on the wrong track with regard to colliery explo-
sions. We recognise the existence of inflammable
gas in collieries, and we then take every precaution
against explosions. This is just as if the police were
to know that a London street was full of gunpowder,
and were to compel persons to wear.list shoes and
prohibit- them. frpm smo!iing instead of removing
the powder. Our Colliery inspectors ought to see that
the gas is removed. This. is terfectly feasible
by means of proper ventilatiOn.

MACCLESFIELD.

An open-air Protestant demonstration took place
at Macclesfield on Monday to denounce the Irish Church
Bill. The number of persons present exceeded ten
thousand. A resolution declaring that the bill was a viola-
tion of the treaty between England and Ireland was carried,
and a petition to the House of Lords requiring the rejection
of the measure was agreed to.

NUFFIELD.

A crowded meeting was held in the Cutlers'-hall, Shef-
field, on Monday, for the purpose of protesting against the
Irish Church Bill. The Chairman said that the object of the
measure was to conciliate the Iteman Catholic population of
Irelaud, and he denied that it was likely to accomplish that
object. The Rev. Canon Trevor, iu moving the first reso-
lution, said ho had been a supporter of Mr. Gladstone, and
he cast no reficction on him ; it was with the measure Mr.
Gladstone brought forward be had to deal. Ho declared
that the Queen could not be absolved from her Coronation
Oath, in which she undertook to preserve the rights and
privileges of the clergy of Ireland. The Earl of Carrick
spoke strong'y against the measure, and declared that
it was the duty of Englishmen to oppose it, as it would end
in establshing the supremacy of the Popo instead of that of
the Queen. A petition praying the House of Lords to re-
ject the bill was signed by the chairman on behalf of the
meeting.

BILL.

Mr. BUXTON, in moving the second reading of this bill,
after regrcttinz• the absence of Mr. J. S. Mill from the
house, said that it was submitted to Parliament in order
that the Government might consider it during the recess,
and compare it with the rival schemes of the Metropolitan
Board of Works, of Lord Fottescue, of the member for
Southwark, and of the tiuder-Secretary of the Treasury.
The object of this scheme was to give a system of repre-
sentative self-government by the creation of a federa-
tion of municipalities. It proposed to take the ten
metropolitan boroughs, and form each into a separate
borough, and to give to each complete machinery for self-
government as a borough. These boroughs would also be
united into ono corporation of the whole metropolis, with a
representative council and executive administration elected
by the whole body of ratepayers of London. The bo-
roughs were Westminster, Chelsea, Marylebone, Finsbury,
Hackney, Tower Hamlets, Lambeth, Southwark, Green-
wich, City, the whole population numbering three mil-
lions. Each borough would have its own officers, police
courts, and justices of the peace, entirely separate from
the other.

Mr. MORRISON seconded the motion.
Mr. C. BENTINCK moved as an amendment that the
bill be read a second time this day six months.
Mr, HENLEY seconded the amendment.
Sir 11. lIOA RE spoke in favour of the principle of local
sif-government, which, if preserved with proper checks
against unnecessary espenditure, would bo adapted to the
requirements of the case.
Mr. LOCKE admitted that there was great need of
something being dour, and urged the plan which he had
so long adrucated of further extending the powers of the
present corporation.
After a few remarks from Mr. BREWER,

Mr. BRUCE said that he would not commit the Govern-
ment upon a question which they had not yet fully con-
sidered. He urged the IN ithdrawal of the bill and the
amendment, and the latter was withdrawn.
The hill was thou read a second time and withrawn.

THE PURCHASE OF TELEGRAPHS.

The Daily Telegraph points out what admirable
bargains the Government is making with regard to
the telegraphs. It is arranging the terms of pur-
eh ;se upon the basis of the profits of the half-year
ending June 1868. But since then the profits have
increr-,ed very considerably. In the case of the
British and Irish Magnetic this increase is £lO,OOO,
which at -twenty years' purchase would be £200,000.
This sum, however, the Government has not to
pay, in consequence of the arrangement which was
made last year. But the agreement falls through if
it is not carried out this year, and so the Govern-
ment has every inducement to complete its arrange-
ments within the present twelve months. The
companies will be vtorse than the Roman Sybil, for
they will ask more after each postponement.

AUSTIIIA AND TUMMY.

Eastern affairs are once more beginning to exhibit signs
of effervescence. A rumour having been in circulation
that Austria was meditating the conquest of Bosnia,
Count Andrassy, the Hungarian Premier has assured the
Pesth Diet that nothing of the kind is inteaded. This
waif is not the only indication that the tide of Eastern
politics is once more flowing in a troublesome direction.

THE INSURRECTION IN ORENBURG.

The revolt of the nomadic tribes on the extreme
frontier of European Russia is well-nigh terminated.
One of the leaders has submitted to the reform which
provoked the insurrection—viz., that the arbitrary power
of the chiefs of these Kirghis tribes be lessened, and that
the authority of the Russian Government be more gene-
rally acknowledged. The rest are expected to follow the
xample.

THE VICEROY OF EGYPT.

The Khedive is rapidlyprogressing with his tour through
Europe. He has passed through Germany, is now in
gAis, and will soon be in England. Why he has under-

illiren this journey, so soon after a former perambulation
of the kind, is naturally the subject of some diverse specula-
tion. To travel through Europe for the purpose merely of
inviting sovereigns to the inauguration of the Suez Canal is a
strange and undignified proceeding, and it does not seem
credible that the Viceroy could have set out with that
object alone. He may, and probably does, prefer the gay
capitals of Europe to Cairn- Ile may desire guarantees
for the neutrality of the Suez Canal. But the Advertitee
will have neither of these theories. The Khedive,
according to the Paris correspondent of this
journal, has no lesser object in view than the reali-
sation of his long•cher:shed dream to transform the
European consulates in his dominions to embassies.
" Should he succeed in his object, he will throw off the
Ottoman yoke, disavow the suzerainty, and thus commence
the disintegration of that crumbling empire." The Sultan
has divined this neat project, and is naturally " furious"
with the Khedive. Of course, owing to the intimate
re7ations between Egypt and France, the Viceroy looks to
the Emperor as his chief ally in the enterprise of rejecting
the domination of the Porte.

THE EMPRESS OF AUSTRIA.

The Hungarians have found a second Maria Theresa
the wife of the Emperor Francis Joseph. The Empress
of Austria is immensely popular amongst the Magyars,
and, according to an interesting letter in the lad.),endan<e
Derge, the reconciliation of Hungary and the regeneration
of the Austrian Empire was due largely to this
most charming of regal ladies. Shortly after
her marriage, says the writer, the Empress
went but little into the world, and was not
popular with the lively Viennese. Nevertheless, she took
a keen interest in the affairs of her country, and her intel-
ligence enabled her to foresee that the policy of the Austrian
Government would end in • Sadowa, even long before that
catastrophe took place. She was opposed to the Italian
war in 1859, and urged the policy of reconciliation with
Hungary. But her advice was not only not taken, but
very ungraciously received by her husband. Her position
became a very difficult one. When, however, it was seen
that she had been more farsighted than the Em-
peror and his advisers, he at once rendered her justice.
His former confidants were set aside, and the Empress was
listened to on an equality with the first statesmen.
Hungary is now her favoured residence, and her long
sojourns there are regarded with some jealousy by the
Viennese.

THE FARTS RIOTS.

The origin and meaning of the Paris riot.; is still
unsolved problem. The Times, without endeavouring to
ehew what these remarkable tumults really were, is pretty
positive as to what they were not. They differ entirely
from the revolutionary troubles. The insurgents who have
at different times manned the Paris barricades may have
been foolish, fanatic, and wicked, but they have always
been brave. They have fought hand to hand for hours
with regular troops such as no other mob has ever done.
But the rioters of last week did nothing but destroy
property. They fled precipitately from the troops,
and. even from the p lice. They were apparently
the dregs .of the population. Their movements were
altogether at variance with ordinary insurgent tactics.
None of the Bepuldican leaders figured amo:igst them.
The Times will not countenance the charge that the riots
were purposely got up by the Government ; but it is cer-
tain that they were not an insurrectionary movement on
the part of the people.
Whatever may hare Leon the cause of these dis-
turbances, their results are substantial enough. Not fewer
than 1,033 individuals are now incarcerated in the fort at
Bicetre, and 27 are in the Paris Conciergerie.

Polytechnic. Established 1820. This, the mostsperfeeted
system of p sinless dentistry, originated and invented by
Mr. B. L. Mosely, is ntornineurred by the Hospitals and
adopted by the profession as one of the greatest improve-
ments of the age for the alleviation of pain and restoration
of the natural functions, can solely be obtained in such
perfected success (the result of forty years' practical ex-
perience) at his only residence, 312, Regent-street. The
superlative excellence of this system is perfect immunity
from plin, no operations, stumps, and decayed teeth ren-
dered useful, loose teeth and tender gums protected.
Qualities : These teeth never change colour or decay—in
fit unerring—ease and comfort unsurpassed—detection
impossible—the facial anatomy faithfully studied and
youthful appearance restored—mastication and articulation
gaarauteed. The "Times" of March 6 says :—" So good
an imitation becomes th., next best thing to the original."

TI:E JEWS IN 110tillANIA.

The Re, lin Covrespenclanee gives-a very curious explana-
tion of the persecutions of the Roumanian Jews which we
are ever and anon hearing of. It says that the sale
of intoxicating liquors among the rural population is
almost exclusively in the hands of the Jews, and so great
is the passion of the peasant for strong drink that it has
been found necessary at various times to restrict or pro-
hibit its sale in the open country by the Jewish retailers.
These enactments, however, have not been regularly
enforced, and the Servian and Roumanian Government
have been often constrained to make spasmodic efforts to
drive the Jewish liquor-vendors out of the agricultural dis-
tricts back into the towns. Hence the stories of persecu-
tion, which, the Berlin Correspondanee thinks, have been
greatly exaggerated. Nevertheless, the Servian and Rou-
manian Governments are bound to avoid, as much as pos-
sible, all "spasmodic efforts" to enforce ciecrees which
are not properly carried out bythe authorities.

on good authority, that next Friday the atrocious bill would
ba bundled out of the House of Lords. He concluded by
declaring that, despite the Liberal majority in the House of
Commons, the Conservative votes were half a million in
excess of those of their opponents.
