dissent from his views; but now two other and
more dangerous adversaries have come forward.
One of them, M. Faugcre, appears to be most com-
petent to decide the question, he having for a long
time been engaged in examining Pascal's MSS.
for the purpose of publishing a correct edition of
the " Pens4es," and also of verifying certain
contested points concerning his life. As soon as
M. Faugcre was informed of M. Chasles's dis-
coveries, he waited upon him and requested the
favour of obtaining a sight of the documents in
question ; and in a letter addressed to the President
of the Academy he states that after an attentive
scrutiny he has arrived at the firm conviction that
the signature at the bottom of the notes and letters
produced is not Pascal's ; and that he is ready to
give all the information in his power on that point
to any commission the Academy
might think proper
to entrust with an investigation. Another letter
on the same subject, addressed to the President, is
by M. Benard, who writes from Evreux, that
these documents are undoubtedly forgeries, and
even very clumsily
concocted ; and in support of
this view he quotes passages from them containing
modern expressions, and asks, moreover, how
Pascal, on 2d of January,
1655, could have calcu-
lated Saturn's mass by means of the revolution of a
satellite which was only discovered on the 25th of
March of that year, and the first tables of which,
published by llayghens in 1659, were exceedingly.
imperfect. M. Renard spoils
a good case by gra-
tuitously asserting that these forgeries Must be " an
English act of perfidy," for the purpose of casting
ridicule on French men of science in case they should
swallow the bait, and admit Pascal to have been the
discoverer of universal attraction. To prove this
stupid assertion he selects from the controverted
notes a couple of odd expressions which he calls
Anglicisms, and whereby he only shows that he him-
self dces not know English. As for M. Chasles he
stoutly maintains the authenticity of the papers in
question, and the dispute is therefore likely not to
end here.

CANNING'S STATUE.

Mr. BERESFORD-HOPE asked the First Commis-
sioner of Works if it was intended to move the statue of
Canning from its present site, and to reinstate it in its
former position. _

Lord J. MANNERS said the present position of Mr.
Canning's statue had been selected by the late Govern-
ment, and he, on coming into office, had seen nothing that
led him to dissent from the arrangement. A strong feel-
ing, however, had sprung up amongst the relatives and
admirers of Mr. Canning against the position it at present
occupied, and, in consequence of that, and the discussion
that had taken place in the other house, the propriety
of changing the site had been again taken into
consideration. Nothing definite had yet been arrived
at, but in the event of its being thought neces-
sary to remove the statue, it would be placed in the centre
of Parliament-square. He was informed that whatever
was done some parties would suffer disappointment.
MAILS TO AMERICA.

Mr. GRAVES asked the Secretary to the Treasury if it
was intended to confine the tenders for conveyance of her
Majesty's mails from the United Kingdom to Now York
to ships sailing under the British flag ; and if not, whether
vessels tendering tinder a foreign flag would bo subject to
the surveys and conditions imposed on British ships car-
rying her Majesty's mails.
Mr. tTUN P said no description of fl•ig hail horn laid
down in the tenders, but the Postmaster-General would,
all other things being equal, give the preference to British
ships. Any vessels chosen would be subject to the con-
ditions required in 13ritish vessels.

CHALLENGE FROM THE HON. GRANTLEY BERKE-
LEY.—On the occasion of the West Gloucestershire election
the Hon. Grantley Berkeley, who sided with the Duke of
Beaufort's interest against that of his own family,. was
grievously pelted with eggs and other unpleasant missiles.
Mr. Berkeley has in consequence issued a handbill, in
which he argues that as the eggs addressed to him were
fresh, they were probably supplied by some person in the
position of a gentleman
(a rough would, in Mr. Berkeley's
opinion, have used rotten eggs), and, if so, Mr. Berkeley
proclaims that he wishes to fight a duel with the offender,
either at Chalk Farm or on Boulogne sands, " to make his
body responsible either on this or the other side of the
water, if he dares to defend himself against the stigma of
cowardice." This is very chivalrous, but we should have
thought that the most certain arrangement for not fighting
a duel would be the circulation of a handbill announcing
that you aro going to fight one. The Hon. Grantley
Nrkeley, however, knows best the course dictated to him
by the fresh eggs of the West Gloucestershire election and
the code of honour.—Full Mall Gazette.

impugned by many. In the Academy itself MM.
Duhamel and Faye have already signified their
dissent from his views ; but now two other and
more dangerous adversaries have come forward.
One of them, M. Faugere, appears to be most com-
petent to decide the question, he having for a long
time been engaged in examining Pascal's MSS.
for the purpose of publishing a correct edition of
the " Pensees," and also of verifying certain
contested points concerning his life. As soon as
M. Faugere was informed of M. Chaslcs's dis-
coveries, he waited upon him and requested the
favour of obtaining a sight of the documents in
question ; and in a letter addressed to the President
of the Academy be states that after an attentive
scrutiny he has arrived at the firm conviction that
the signature at the bottom of the notes and letters
produced is not Pascal's i•
and that he is ready to
give all the information in his power on that point
to any commission the-Academy might think proper
to entrust with an investigation. Another letter
on the same subject, addressed to the President, is
by M. Benard, who writes from Evreux, that
these documents are undoubtedly forgeries, and
even very clumsily concocted ; and iu support of
this view he quotes passages from them containing
modern expressions, and asks, 1110TCOVer, how
Pascal, on 21 of January,
1655, could have calcu-
lated Saturn's mass by means of the revolution of a
satellite which vas only discovered on the 25th of
March of that year, and the first tables of which,
published by I Isygliens in 1659, were exceedingly
imperfect. M. 1;6,,,, rd spoils a good c use by gra-
tuitously asserting that these forgeries must be " an
English act of perfidy," for the purpese of casting
ridicule on Frenc:i men of science in case they should
swallow the bait, and admit Pascal to have been the
discoverer of universal attraction. To prove this
stupid a,sertion he selects from the controverted
notes a couple of odd expressions which he calls
Anglicisms, and whereby he only shows that he him-
self dces not knew English. As for M. Chasles he
stoutly m t
----t'-itha;.us the authenticity of the papers in
question, and the dispute is therefore likely not to

The Great Indian Pickle Case.

The celebrated " Pickle Case" has again revived
under the action of the House of Commons. Some
of the honourable members have a disagreeable
habit of calling for papers which officials would
wish to pack away among forgotten records. Thus
two documents have been produced and published :
the one a despatch from the Duke of CAMBRIDGE to
SirWILLIAM MANSFIELD, in which the Conductewedo, and
latter officer in the JERVIS case is fully reviewed,
the other a reply from SirWILLIAM to his Royal High-
ness's strictures. Perhaps our American readers will
remember that Captain JERVIS had for years been
Sir WILLIAM'S aide-de-camp. He was on terms of
intimacy, living in the same house, and superintend-
ing the domestic arrangements. There is nothing
more absurd than the assumption of ladies of the
ordinary English middle class when thrust into gran-
deur in such countries as India, on the sudden rise
of their husbands in official rank, and this case,
like many others, had its origin in such assumption.
The Eastern dependencies are the hotbeds where
these weeds grow up with astounding rapidity, and
attain propoftions that amaze the more genuine and
legitimate plant. Every station, however paltry,
has at least one grand lady—more probably two,
who compete for the leadership. The wretched little
society, isolated in the burning plains of Asia,
is often split into contending factions by their
ridiculous pretensions and those who in England are
stripped of their plumage, and find shelter in some
drawing-room apartments, often in India ape the
style of Royalty. When Mrs. Brigadier PEA-
BODY and Mrs. Commisfionei PEACOCK assume
such airs, people may easily imagine if their
husbaii lb' good flrtune should raise them to
the rank of Lady Commander-in-Chief ! what
the spread of tail would then be. Sir WILLIAM
MANSFIELD entered the army al a poor and un-
friended subaltern, rising in the 53d Regiment to
the rank of Major. In that regiment Lord CLYDE,
then a Lieutenant-Colonel in command, had oppor-
tunities of making himself acquainted with the
talent of his subordinate, and when the public,
after long neglect, began to appreciate Sir COLIN
CAMPBELL, and circumstances led to his rapid ele-
vation, he picked out MANSFIELD as his aide, and
carried him up the hill with him. The Crimean
War and the Indian Mutiny, together with a strong
tide of good fortune, hurried the lucky MANSFIELD
along till he found himself perched on a peak of the
Himmalayah, dominating the vast peninsula of Ilin-
dostan, over whose wide-spreading plains he gazed as
" military monarch of all he surveyed." A grandee

MARK LANE.

Fresh up to our market to-day, both coastwise and by
rail, the arrivals of English wheat have been very limited,
but in fair average condition. Tho attendance of millers
was rather limited; nevertheless, with a fair -demand for
both red and white qualities, Monday's currencies were
supported. Fears were entertained lest the unfavourable
weather should prove injurious to the crops, and this cir-
cumstance gave additional firmness to the trade.
The supply of foreign was moderately extensive, but the
demand ruled heavy on about previous terms. The im-
ports to date amount to over 9,000 quarters.
Floating cargoes of grain were in fair request at our last
quotations.
No English barley was on offer, and the show of foreign
samples was very limited. In all sales effected extreme
rates were obtained.

The malt trade continues steady, and the quotations
remain without alteration.

Oats were in good supply and sluggish request on pre-
vious terms. The quantity of Russian on offer is very
large.

lions and peas were steady, at late values.
Wo have no alteration to report in the value of either
town or country flour.
Cakes were firm at formor currencies, but agricultural
seeds met a slow inquiry.

Sir.--With a view of making the public aware, at
the earliest period practicable, of the dividend likely
to be declared by this company at the ensuing gene-
ral meeting, I am authorised to state that the ac-
counts, though not yet finally audited, or approved

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF COMMONS-THIS DAT.
The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock.
UNIFORMITY ACT AMENDMENT BILL.
Mr. FAWCETT moved the third reading of this hi ,
but the motion was opposed by Mr. C. Beutinck.
Tho houso dividod, when there appeared—
For the third reading
Against it 4l

Majority
The bill was consequently lost.
LIBEL BILL.

Sir C. O'LOGIILEN moved the third reading of this
Lill.

Mr. AYIZTON opposed the motion, on the ground that

the bill would provedetrimental to the liberty of the press.
The elf mt of the bill would be to make 1 ersons more
amenable to punishment for spoken slander than
at present, and that a person who printed the statement
should bo etempt from punishment—a proposition he
considered altogether unjust. The bill in his opinion
deprived the person libelled of all protection, because all
that was necessary to absolve the printer from liability
was that the report be accurate. It was said the person

injured would have the opportunity of writing an explana-
tion, which would be published in the same newspaper
that printed the libel, provided he (lid not involve other
parties. That, he contended, was altogether impossible;
and, as for proceeding against the speaker, it was quite
open for a person to give a fictitious name, and thus the
unfortunate person who had been the subject of the slan-
derous attacks would be effectually prevented from disco-
vering his real name and address. He contended that
another fault in the bill was that it exempted one
class of the community from the law of the land, because it
prevented a person libelled proceeding against a newspaper
proprietor without ho could find two responsible persons
who would become sureties for the costs of the action. The
bill seemed as if it had been drawn out by newspaper pro-
prietors respectively for their own protection, without the
slightest regard to the rights of the public in general. The
result of the bill would be to put a bad newspaper on the
same footing as oue conducted with care and ability, and
therefore ho hoped the house would reject the bill.

GORTSCHAKOFF'S DESPATCH.

Mr. NEWDEGATE asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether he would lay upon the table of
the House the circular despatch of Prince Gortschakoff to
the Russian representatives abroad relative to the break-
ing off of the relations between the Holy See and the
Imperial Government, and to the abrogation of the Con-
cordat of 1847, together with the documents annexed,
extracts from which had appeared in the newspapers of
this country.
Lord STANLEY said the papers had been published by
the Russian Government, and had been printed in many
of the newspapers, both English and foreign ; and as to
a despatch relative to matters with which the British Go-
vernment had nothing' whatever to do, he thought it
would be a waste of money to reproduce-them, unless it
was for the convenience of the house that the paper was
required. For private purposes there would be every fa-
cility given to members wishing to look over the papers.

The impeachers have come to the conclusion that
they can bring no evidence upon which the Senate
will convict the President of " high crimes and mom'
demeanors," and it is now reported that they have
another plan •, they will try to get a bill througl4
suspending the President while on trial, and if it
goes they will prolong the trial till March, 1869,
and meanwhile run the machine to suit themselves.
The scheme will fail at the first step. Congress Will
pass no such bill.
