MISCELLANEOUS -.NEWS.

CLEVER BOT.

A correspondent of the John Bull gives an account
of the Premier's precocity in his youth. At the age
of 10 he gained all the prizes at Railton's for mathe-
matics, classics, and both ancient and modem history,
when there were one hundred competitors. Alfred
Tennyson was one, and Disraeli's junior by a year or
two. The memory of the latter was most remark-
able, and he could repeat his lessons, whether Greek,
Latin, or English, after reading them once over. Ile
went regularly to church, and was a great proficient in
sacred history. Lastly, he wcs extremely popular
with his schoolfellows. Mr. Disraeli must be rather
impatient when " educating" his party. We find
that he never required to read his lesson twice before
learning it ; his pupils are much slower. This excel-
lent memory must furnish him with some curious
food for reflection, and may account for his abstrac-
tion and preoccupied manner in the House of
Commons.

THE " Bow AT RUGBY.

Dr. Temple, who was violently turned out of the
Tory meeting at Rugby, gives an explanation which
does not satisfy either of the Conservative candidates
for North Warwickshire. Both Mr. Newdegate and.
Mr. Davenport-Bromley write to the Times, express-
ing theirsurprise that Dr. Temple should have come to
the meeting at all. He is the proposer of the Liberal
candidates. The Liberals had exasperated the meet-
ing by their refusal to allow the candidates to speak.
When, therefore, Dr. Temple appeared he acted as a
spark to gunpowder. Mr. Newdegate says that what-
ever ho counselled three years ago, he would not
have counselled Dr. Temple to have come to tha'•
meeting.

favour; 'so that the original summons was
withdrawn, and the case was taken under
the recent Act. He was only fined 20s. and costs.
He has thus cheaply bought the •honour of being
placed in the same category with that celebrated
clergyman who, while the Bishop of Salisbury was
charging his clergy, called out to those who were
"on the Lord's side to follow him out of the church.
At the same time he will be "written down an ass."
Sacrilegious acts are somewhat lightly committed
now-a-days. However objectionable the offerings of
the Brighton inhabitants may be to their fellow men,
it should be remembered that even the censers of
those who rebelled against Moses were considered
" holy" and reserved for the use of the altar, though
the rebels themselves were destroyed.

Eclumnds v. Greenwood, which came before the
Court of Common Pleas the other day, the counsel fot

_ ny sueu document had an existence until the
22nd of January, 1800 (more than six months and a
half after its pretended date), when I found it pub-
lishtd at length in all the London papers, and all
on the same day. By Mr. Greenwood's authority
the report in question was lithographed, and litho-
graphed copies were forwarded to Mr. B. Woodcroft
by Mr. Greenwood's authority. Subsequently, Lord
Romilly, the Master of the Rolls, directed Mr. Wood-
croft to print the same, and the Queen's printers
printed officially, and. according to order, 250 copies,
and transmitted the whole to Mr. Woodcroft. Mr.
Woodcroft admits that, by order of Lord Romilly,
he sent printed copies of the same to all the London
newspapers, with a letter addressed to the several
editors requesting insertion."
THE CHELSEA SUEGEONe
There has been a dispute about the verdict in the
case of the woman who died in the surgery of Powell
at Chelsea. The reporters first gave the verdict as
one of " wilful murder" against Powell. This was
afterwards contradicted. ,by a, juryman, who stateal
that deceased was found to have died from natural
causes accelerated by Powell's treatment. One of
the reporters now writes that this juryman, Mr.
Jackson, and his fellows signed their names
to the verdict of " wilful murder," and were
present while the coroner made out his warrant.
The reporters were requested to leave the court
while the jury deliberated. This reporter heard a
remark made by a juryman when the witnesses had
been bound over to appear at the Old Bailey. He
said, " Then you will persist in that nasty word I:"
Murder is one of the ugliest words in the English
language, for it represents one of the ugliest deeds.
Surely it exhibits a bad state of things when jury-
men seek to bar criminal prosecutions through
fastidiousness.

THE DUTY OF A PROSECUTING COUNSEL.

At the Birmingham borough sessions the other
day, a man was charged with stealing money from
the person. The counsel for the prosecution, the
Hon. E. C. Leigh, mentioned certain matters about
" hushing it up " which militated against his own
case. In summing up the Recorder commended Mr.
Leigh, and said it was the duty of the counsel for the
prosecution to bring all the facts of the case before the
court. " It was their duty not merely to obtain a ver-
dict, but to see that justice was done. If counsel
knew of any facts that would militate against a con-
viction, it was much better that they should bring
them out instead of allowing them to be brought out
hostilely. He therefore was of opinion that
Mr. Leigh had done right in introducing
those facts." The result was an acquittal.
A contemporary says that a generally-received notion
is that an advocate retained to conduct a prosecution
is bound to do his utmost to procure a conviction,
though to do so he may even find it requisite to keep
out of sight of the court and jury facts and circum-
stances which would doubtless tell against his case
and in favour of the accused. Such a notion may
obtain amongst the ignorant, but it is altogether at
enmity with the spirit which animates the bar.
