The Belfast Newsletter of Saturday contains a
lengthened report of an important meeting at Bally-
mena, county Antrim, on the marriage question.
It was one of a series of meetings on that subject
being now held throughout Ireland by the members
of " the Marriage Law Association," formed about
two years ago in Belfast. At Ballymena; the

Presbyterian Church, and the Rev. Dr. Edgar,
Professor of Theology in the Assembly's College at
Belfast. The latter gentleman, in an effective
speech, racy of the soil, made the following humor-
ous allusion to the marriage of Major Yelverton by
Father Mooney
" The priest and the minister are not now on the same
level. The Protestant minister cannot now celebrate a mar-
-1 riage unless in a regularly licensed house ; while, upon tha
contrary, his worthy neighbour, the priest, is allowed to
celebrate marriage wherever he likes—in the parlour; the
kitchen, the scullery, the yard, or the back of the turf stack.
The Protestant minister can only celebrate amarriage within
certain hours, in broad daylight, with God's honest sun
shining down on his head; whereas, upon the contrary,
the Roman Catholic priest can marry at all hours of night
and day—morning, cock-crow, and midnight are all the
same to my gallant friend the priest. Just when the mar-
rying humour comes on you—be it full moon or change of
the moon—at night or day—be you sober or drunk—the
priest is your man, and he's the boy can marry you off-
hand. I would be sorry to apply this to all priests, but the
law should trust no man. If you are for marrying, at dark
or at midnight, he is the boy for you. All you have got to
do is, like Mrs. Yelverton, to oil his palm with a £lO note.
All you have to say then is—' fire away Flannigan,' ancl
he is ready for half a marriage, a whole marriage, or no
marriage. The Protestant Minister must have proper
witnesses to the marriage—there must be two witnesses.
But the Roman Catholic priest does not require anything
of the kind. Father' Mooney turns out the people, pular
the key in his pocket, then hocus pocus—he can't. tell what
he did—he is not just stre—:whether it is a marriage or no
marriage he cannot tell."

SUSPECTED MITRDER.—On Saturday Mr. Carter
held an inquest at Camberwell Workhouse on the body of
Victorine Pugh, aged 20. The deceased, although an an.
fortunate, kept company with a young man named Thomas
Frederick Knighton. On Saturday night week they met
at a public-house, and were seen quarrelling in the vicinity
of the Grand Surrey Canal, between 12 and 1 in the morn.

of the canal to sleep heard screams and a splash in tht
water, and then footsteps of some one running away, and
