The Earl of Enniskillen, who had been so
seriously ill that his life was despaired of, is now better,
and it is hoped will soon be restored to good health.
THE KEBLE COLLEGE.—It is arranged that tho
first stone of the Keble College, Oxford, shall be laid on
the 25th proximo by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Tho execution of John Mapp, who has been
sentenced to death at Shrewsbury for the murder of
the girl Catherine Lewis, will take place on the 9th of
April.

Mr. Corry will bring forward the navy estimates
immediately after Easter. No inconvenience will be
suffered by the public service from this delay, as a sum of
two millions has already been taken on account.
The return of the registrar of births, marriages,
and deaths spews that the number of emigrants who left
the various ports in Ireland for the three months ending
the 31st December last was 13,227, being 333 in excess of
the number for the corresponding quarter of 186 G.
Mr. Johnson has found sympathy in a -quarter
where be could not have expected it. " The treatment of
Mr. Johnston," says the In:simian , " is simply atrocious."
It adds that " he is suffering because it is inconvenient to
our English masters that Orange processions should now
take place."

BURIED ALIVE.—A man named WilliaM Godfrey
was buried alive on Saturday evening in the ruins of a
house in Bucklersbury. He was engaged with other men
in removing the buildings which stand on the site of the
new street which is to go from the Thames embankment
to the Mansion House.

NEW TIIEkTRES IN LONDON.—The letters which
appeared some few months since advocating the erection
of w new theatre in the western portion of London appear
to have borne fruit, for we learn that Brompton has been
selected as the site of a new house. Further steps have
also been taken towards the erection of places of entertain-
ment in Leicester-square, already indicated as being
amongst theatrical projects.
Mr. Tufton, the Liberal candidate for East Kent,
has issued an address to the electors, in which he says
My opponents are industriouslycirculating a report that
lam a Roman Catholic. This is entirely false. M 3
father and I are, and always have been, members of the
Protestant Church of England. I trust to your sense of
fair play not to allow such unfounded reports to prejudice
you against my candidature."
As the time approaches for the decisive struggle on tho
Irish Church, every little occurrence which by any possi.
bility can be supposed to give an indication as to the issue
of the contest is eagerly seized upon. The tone of the
Ministerial papers seems to be almost as changeful as the
temperature of this fickle climate, for confidence and dis-
trust appear to have succeeded each other almost with
the rapi,lity of the ebb and flow of the tide. Now they
are jubilant, then they are crestfallen; to-day they are
sure of victory, to-morrow they speculate on the conse-
quences of defeat. The latest phase of the Standard's
argument is just this :—Supposing that the House arrives
at the conclusion that the Irish Church must be re-
duced to the level of the sects in the first instance,
and plundered of her revenues in the second, the mischief
does riot end here. The Irish Church, stripped and
starving, will be the model upon which all other established
and endowed Churches must be fashioned. The Esta-
blished Churches of England and Scotland are worth
plundering, and why are they to escape the doom of their
Irish sister? It is only a question of numbers, and the
moment the census returns shew that the Roman Catholics
and Dissenters are in excess of the Establishmentarians,
the precedent of Ireland will be quoted with unanswerable
logic, and the cry will be Delenda est-

The Hcred, which for several successive days last week
distinctly threatened a dissolution should the Government
be defeated, does so no longer. According to our contem-
porary the Irish Church cannot be abolished except by an
Act of Parliament, which nobody supposes there is the
rlightest chance of passing this session or the next, and
the Government, as a matter of course, will not advise the
Sovereign to accept an address from a House of
Commons which has placed upon record its own
incompetence to speak in the name of the
nation as a guide to her action. The House may
pass Mr. Gladstone's resolutions, but the Government wit
regard the Irish Church as no more affected by them
than it was by the resolutions passed against the same
Establishment thirty years ago. It will not suspend
the exercise of Royal patronage ; the livings and the
higher dignities will be duly filled up as vacancies occur;
and the Reformed Parliament will not find itself preju-
diced i i its conclusions upon this question in the z,lightest
degree by any vote which the "hungry hunters after
dace " mr,,y snatch.

It must be confessed that this language is scarcely con.
si:;teu t with the following paragraph, to which prominence
is gi►•en in another part of the same paper :—" The return
to town of her Majesty at this moment is opportune; as it
will considerably facilitate matters should an appeal to the
country be deemed necessary." At the same time, very
few outside the Herald office believe in the possibility
Of a dissolution. The Times thinks Mr. Disraeli may, in
accordance with the practice of the Constitution, deny
that the present House of Commons expresses the opinion
of the country, and may claim to retain his present position
until the issue can be submitted to the new constituencies.
'What is important is that the House of Commons shoulx?

give an earnest of the legislation of the future, and offer ;
pledge to the Irish people by declaring at once the neces•
city of abating the Irish Church Establishment ; nor can
any member-refuse to join in it, whatever pretence 01
explanation he may suggest, without being convicted of
indifference to wrong, of unx:_eadinvist 4014 iq
