➢IR. DISRAELfS RESIGNATION.

The Morning Advertiser gives currency to a strange
account of the retirement of the late Prime Minister.
This second " leap in the dark" is said to have been
taken in consequence of the course pursued by two
members of the late Cabinet, Lord Cairns and Mr.
Hardy, who threatened to resign alone if Mr.
Disraeli did not consent to let the Ministry resign
en bloc. The Government could not stand any,
further secessions, although it had survived the resig-
nation of Lord Salisbury and his friends the year
before. Nor was it worth while to give rise to a
scandal for the sake of retaining office for a fortnight.
So the late Premier yielded to the representations of
his Chancellor and home Secret-try.

THE LATE ABYSSINIAN EXPEDITION.

Another batch of papers was added on Wednesday to
the large quantity already issued with regard to the expe-
dition to Abyssinia. One is a long account by Mr.
Rassam of his mission to King Theodore from the time
he entered Abyssinia until his release from captivity.
The other is a report by Consul Cameron respecting his
imprisonment in that country. The same tale
has been told so many times that it would
be of no interest to our readers to give even
a summary of the sufferings which were under-
gone by both Mr. Rassam and Consul Cameron,
especially as there is nothing new in either of the accounts.
In reply to Mr. Rassam, Lord Stanley (the then Foreign
Minister) under date December 5, informs him that, as
some compensation for the suffering which he underwent,
as well as a testimony of appeciation of good service, her
Majesty's Government had resolved to present him with
£5,000. They also notified their intention to give £2,000
each to Dr. Blanc and Mr. Prideaux. To Consul
Cameron Lord Stanley sent the following answer :
" Foreign Office, Dec. 7, 1868.—Sir,—I have to inform
you that her Majesty's Government have decided to sup-
press the appointment held by you of her Majesty's
Consul at Massowah, and that in consideration of the
sufferings which you have undergone during your captivity
in Abyssinia, and of your services being now no longer
required, the Lords of the Treasury have been pleased to
sanction the grant to you of a special pension at the rate
of
_£3so a year, to commence from this day."

LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECT UAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, cold., confirmed cases of asthma, and idci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 13id., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Bo particular, and ask for Lambert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve tenth that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

THE NEW LAW OF BRIBERY.

A correspondent of the Post expresses a hope that
in the course cf the trials on the bribery petitions
the judge will lay down clearly the law on some
points at present doubtful. Ile asks what constitutes
agency ; and whether a member of a parliamentary
candidate's committee who canvasses for him, who
presides over a meeting at a public-house where wine,
beer, and refreshments are dispensed free of charge,
and who obtains promises of votes, and
possibly signatures, is to be regarded as an
"agent," and the feasting over which he
presides " treating," within the meaning of the
Act ? Ire suggests that the fact of being on the
committee of a candidate should constitute agency,
and that the supply of any refreshments by one
voter to another without payment in the interval

GALLERY OF ILLUS7RATION.

Mr. and Mrs. German Reed opened the season
last evening with Mr. Burnand's "Inquire Within,"
and a new musical extravaganza entitled " The
Last of the Paladins," written by Mr. R. Reece.
" Inquire Within" bids fair to meet with the same
popularity which was accorded to it last season•
Mrs Reed and ber husband take the same parts In
it as last year, while those of Mr. Parry and Miss
St. Clair are sustained by Mr. Frank Matthews and
Mdlle Rosa d'Erina. The new musical piece, " The
Last of the Paladins," is a musical extravaganza,
the music by J. Offenbach, and very aniusingli
comic. The merriment is caused by an old fire-
eating Baron defending his castle against the aggres-
sion of his ancestral enemy, Sam-old-atto. The
Baron, in the absence of the implements of war,
presses those of the kitchen into his service, ando
thus much laughter is excited. The trifle " went
very well, and doubless will become highly attrac-
tive. . Mr. and Mrs. Reed received a very cordial
welcome from a very numerous audience.

MIL 130IIVERIE AND Mlt. MILL.

The correspondence between Mr. Bouverie and Mr.
Mill, Which Jias just been published, is well worth
reading, and Liberal dalitlitlatei Would do well tc
study it. Mr. Bouverie's letters are as nett im-kneee
of a gentlemanly " setting down " as we have 6vet
read. What right has Mr. Mill to assume that he
knows better than the electors of Kilmarnock
who is the better representative, Mr. Bouverie
or Mr. Chadwick ? Even supposing that Mr.
Chadwick is the better man, why giutia he
attempt to supplant a good man, instead of
one whom ho would consider a bad representative;
why not fight a Tory, whose views he would condemn.
than a Liberal with whose views he would agree ? Ie
a constituency to be always changing its representa-
tives, iu .the hope of improving them ? Would a
master be morally justified in turning off a good and
faithful servant, who had been with him for a
quarter of a century, because he thought he could
get a better one ?" Mr. Mill, who takes no part in his
own election, who runs off to the South of France
when the electors of Westminster would like to heat
his opinions on the questions of the day, is
strangely fond of interposing in other elec-
tions. Testimonials to the worth of Mr. Chad-
wick, Mr. Odger, and Mr. Bradlaugh are scarcely
fair when they are given at the expense of Mr.
Bouverie, Sir Henry Hoare, and Lord Henley. The
value of one to the first-named gentleman must
be very much deteriorated by the fact that it is also
forthcoming for "Iconoclast." It is a pity Mr. Mill
does not follow the example of Mr. Bright, and
decline to sanction the plan of putting up political
principles to auction.

Mlt. PURCHAS AND THE BISHOP OF CHICHESTER.

4 correspondence of seven letters between Mr.
Purchas, the Bishop of Chichester, and Mr. Wagner,
the vicar of Brighton, is published. The Times
makes it the subject of a severe article upon the first-
named gentleman. The letters scarcely justify that
severity. Mr. Purchas disputes the legality of the
Bishop's inhibition, not because he believes his
ritual to be lawful, but because he is the incumbent
of a benefice, and cannot be legally inhibited,
as a clergyman who is only a curate can be.
The question at issue is, therefore, no longer one of
doctrine or ritual, but of property. The Bishop has
a perfect right to proceed against Mr. Purchas, but
he must do so legally. It does not appear that he is
doing this. Another point is raised incidentally in
the correspondence. Complaints have been made
against Mr. Purehas for mutilating the service.
He admits the mutilation, but says it took
place only on one occasion and in conse-
quence of his sudden illness, and that it shall not
occur again—a sufficient answer, one would have sup-
posed. On the other hand, he alleges that the vicar
of Brighton persistently, constantly, and of full pur-
pose " mutilates " the services, by infrequent celebra-
tions of the Holy Communion, by the total omission
of all the saints' day services, and of those for Ash
Wednesday and Ascension Day; by omissions of parts
of the marriage service, he not allowing marriages to
be solemnised in the other churches. Lastly, Mr. Wag-
ner charges fees for the registration of baptisms, aprO-
ceeding which, inasmuch as it virtually amounts to sell-
ing, one of the sacraments, is infinitely more important
and more objectionable than the presence of lighted
candles on the altar. Clearly, the bishops ought to
be impartial ; and if they are determined to insist
upon exact compliance with the Act of Uniformity,
they must demand it as much from those who err by
defect as from those who err by excess. In this
matter the Bishop of Chester set a good example to
the Bishop of Chichester when he replied to the
memorial presented to him by Dr. M'Neile and other
Tow Church clergy of his diocese.

MR. DISRAELI,

The Premier is gene on a visit to the Earl of
ibergavenny, who, as Viscount Nevin, will be
remembered for the correspondence which passed
between him and Mr. Disraeli when the Prime
Minister, having abandoned his scheme of levelling
up, first hoisted the No-Popery banner. The visit
just now is rather significant. No doubt the
Premier goes to be confirmed in his new faith,
which must be sorely shaken at times when hi. 9
" historic conscience" reminds him of "an alien
Church."

DISTURBANCES IN Bo EM I A.--'rhe lndependance
Beigeobserves that the Governor •f Bohemia has not had
long to wait before exercising his exceptional powers.
Until now the persons who have habitually created dis-
turbances dispotsod at the sight of soldiers merely to
Change the scene of disorder; but now the breakers of th•
peace have been informed that the hour of tolerance is
over, and that General Koller is determined to maintain
order by all the means in his power. At Stuichow lately
they had proof positive of his intentions, inasmuch as
several men were wounded, either from making resistance
or frora being charged too brusquely.

REPRESENTATION OF OXFORD kUNIVERSITY.—
OXFORD, Friday.—Sir Roundel Palmer has accepted the
invitation to stand for the university. Dr. Sewell, the
warden of New College, it is stated, will act as chairman
of the committee.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] Holloway's Pills.— Palpitation of
the heart is frequently not only felt, but heard, prevents sleep,
and begets the utmost draad of impending suffocation. These
Pills are particularly recommended for removing this affection,
because they strengthen the nervous and debilitated, who are
much more liable to this ni,lla.dy than other persons. Holloway's
Pills so improve the digestion, increase action of the liver, and
give activity to the bowels, that giddiness, headache, and nasuea
depart as the palpitation diminishes, and the sufferer at once
experiences the most indescribable relief from anxiety. Hollo-
,way's Pills form the best alterative and aperient in all cases of
convalescence from fevers, inflammations, neuralgia, and all
chronic diseases which Imre imPoTOritill9cl the blood Awl brain.

THE BISHOP OF CARLISLE.

The rector of Woodland, North Lancashire, Mr.
Shufflebotham, lately asked his diocesan, the Bishop
of Carlisle, to be present at the laying the Tounda-
tion-stone of a now parsonage. Bishop Waldegrave
declined,'. and in a second letter denounced harvest
thanksgivings and choral services as " stumbling-
blocks m a brother'S way, when a Romanisirg party
in our Church is busy in every direction in that unhal-
lowed work." Is it possible that a bishop of the English
Church, a double first class university man, a Protestant
of Protestants,whohasalways contended for "an open
Bible," is so little acquainted with that book as to be
ignorant that harvest thanksgivings are to be found
there ; that they were common t . o thousand years
before Popery ; and that the P. alms which he thinks
ought to be read were written by their composers to
be sung ? Was David or was Asaph a Papist ? Is
not rather Bishop Waldegrave, who denies the right
of private judgment ?
London, England, 1868-10-16

THE BALLOT.

The Ballot Society, formed several years ego to
advocate the adoption of the ballot, admits, in an
address to the electors, that so far they have failed in
their object. Mr. Gladstone, in his speech at Liver-
pool, sheaved that he was still opposed to it ; Mr. Mill,
in his speech to the constituency at Westminstera
declared very emphatically against it ; and thoug
Mr. Bright still insist 3 upon it, he does so with little
thatfervour which its advocates used in years gone b-
On the other hand, the new men of the Liberal pari
and most of the advanced candidates are going
strongly in its favour. It is by no means improbLa
that the coming session will witness a struggle ups
it, and in no way impossible that another gener.
election will be decided by the ballot-box. In th.
meantime, however, the Ballot Society is very anxiori:
as to the extent of corruption during the elect:.on
which are now at hand. They have, therefore
issued a manifesto, warning the electors, new an•
old, against the dangers to which they are exposed

1111. DOULTON.

Mr. Doulton, the Adullamite M.P. for Lam-
beth, has retired. We are not surprised to
hear it. Mr. Doulton alleges ill health ; the
same cause, by the way, which made him
ask for delay when certain grave charges were
brought against him at Brussels. His politics, too,
are not of the Lambeth pattern, and having no
longer an unlimited supply of money wherewith to
make them go down, he very wisely retires: and
leaves the battle to be fought by two rich citizens.
As the Liberal candidates are, by the retirement of
Mr. Hughes and Mr. Doulton, reduced from four to
two, the prospects of Mr. Morgan Howard, the
" Constitutional " candidate, are not brilliant.

THE CONTINGENT BARONETCY.
Mr. Darby Griffith appears to hive discovered a
mare's nest. It is not the first time he has
made that discovery. Ile asserted that Sir Samuel
Bignold, being anxious to induce a certain gentleman
to stand for Norwich, received from him the answer
that he would do so only on his claims to a baronetcy
being recognised by the Premier, and that thereupon
Sir Samuel obtained from Mr. Disraeli a promise that
the coveted honour should be bestowed. Sir Samuel
writes to deny the story in every particular. He
received no such communication, and made no such
application. Mr. Darby Griffith must try again.
• CONSERVATIVE JOURNALISM.
The " Working Men's Constitutional Association "
at Deal have passed a resolution, in which they com-
plain that all the most widely-circulated weekly news-
papers are of Liberal politics, and they ask the
Conscryative imions to " agitate " for a Conservative
weekly pare-. The men of Deal do not seem to have
heard of the British Monarchy and the British Lion,
both cheap weekly Conservative papers—both, we
believe, now defunct. Then there was the Realm, a
high-priced paper of " Constitutional " politics, which
lasted four weeks ; and the Monitor, which was never
more than a name. Either Conservative papers are
very unfortunate, or Conservative newspaper readers
are very few.

TIIE REV. ALAN G]IEENWELL.

The Manchester Examiner is responsible for the
JollOWing paragraph :—" An announcement is made
which has no doubt some relation to the recent
ritualistic observances at Haydock, near Warrington.
The Rev. Alan Greenwell, vicar of Haydock, under
whose direction the ceremonies took place, will in a
few months resign his office as a clergyman of the
Established Church." Surely this is a tragical ending
to the pig's-head comedy. Only why does Mr. Green-
well mean to wait "a few months," if hA intends to
resign his office ?
