LITERATURE.

ANTHONY TROLLOPE'S WEEKLY SERIAL STOET---
He Knew lie was Right," now publishing by the
Alessrs. Virtue and Co., still continues to exercise
its fascination over the multitude of readers who,
ire now wondering what will come of it all !
Whether Trevelyan or his wife is more in the
wrong ! Whether that horrid mischief-making
self-sufficient old roué the colonel will come
to grief eventually by getting kicked or
being horsewhipped ! Either of which he most cer-
tainly richly deserves, if only by reason of his egre-
giousvanity, and of his heartless selfishness in the in-
dulgence of that same vanity. Priscilla, to our mind,
is the best character in the whole story and, next to
her, Aunt Stanbury of the Close in Exeter. As to
Hugh and Norah they neither of them seem as yet
to know their own mind, and, what is more, they
don't deserve to. The mysterious confusion hinted
at in the vignette on the cover, still remains uneX-

plained, though we may conjecture the significance
of it, and fancy we can clearly enough recognise--
among the leading persons in the group—lie and
She, that is of course Trevelyan and his wife, the
baby whimpering on the ground, Hugh expostulat-
ing, Aunt Stanbury grimly watchful in one part of
the background., and that horrid Colonel compla-
cently observant of it all in another.

ANTHONY TROLLOPE'S MAGAZINE—" St. Poo
(also published by Messrs. Virtue and Co.)—still
duds its principal attraction in the editor's Own
serial story of " Phineas Finn." It is more
than usually interesting in the recently pub-
lished number for December. It relates b° r"
Phineas bears up under, the misery of having
been just thrown over by Violet Effiingham. Is it
that this Irish Apollo is fated to have a perpetualslip
'twixt the cup and the lip, whenever he is in love,
as he is, off and on, we don't know with how mall'
lir. Kennedy bears away with him Lady Laura
just as Phineas proposes to the latter on the breezid
hill top. Lord Chiltern is accepted at last, a°
not reluctantly either, by Violet, when Pbioe3s
is all but certain of Violet's love for him. The
Duke of Omnium, again, we can almost fa°l
stepping in as the winner of Madame Max Goesler s
plump little hand, at the moment when Phineas may
have resolved to ask that hand for himself by Way
of consolation for the loss of Lady Laura and °
Violet Effingham. The young Irish Under-Seers.
tary of State will have nothing else for it but W
fall back upon his gentle first-love nearer home,
unless some prompter wooer than himself autic,l;
pates him therein—which is hardly, however, to
•
anticipated.

MIL LAIRD AND THE AMERICAN AMBASSADOR.

Mr. John Laird, of Birkenhead, writes to the
Times to correct the impression that Mr. Johnson
sought his acquaintance at the time of the Liverpool
banquet in October last. The first overtures were
made by Mr. Laird, who proves it by publishing the
correspondence. He wrote to Mr. Johnson to invite
him. He recognised the Ambassador's exertions to
promote friendly relations between the two coun-
tries, and stated that if Mr. Johnson thought
such a visit would be prejudicial to his mission,

said : " My mission to England is not to do or refrain
from doing anything which may serve to promote
or continue any ill-feeling between any portion
of her Majesty's subjects and the citizens of
the United States ; but, on the contrary, to endea-
vour by all proper means to extinguish such feeling.

AN OLD TALE REVIVED.

Often has the story of the murder of the Courier of
Lyons been told, and it is doubtful if we have heard the
last of it even now. As all the world knows, an innocent
man named Lesurques was executed as an accomplice in
the murder—his innocence being plainly proved afterwards
by the confession of the real murderers. trhe unfortunate
man who fell a victim to the law's mistake
left three children, who filially devoted themselves to
obtaining a vindication of their father's memory by having
the conviction quashed. The last survivor of the family, a
lldlle. Lesurques, now aged 80 years, brought forward
another appeal en the case in the Paris Court of Cassation,
on Thursday last, and again was the appeal rejected upon
some merely technical point. At the daughter's advanced
age it is hardly likely the public will hear much more of the
subject,but the old lady will certainly persevere while life
and strength last.

THE GALLOWS•

Priscilla Biggadike, the Stickney murderess, Is to
be executed on the 28th inst. There can be little
doubt that she murdered her husband, but there can
be equally little doubt that she was condemned by a
jury which had hardly made up its mind. The jury
recommended her to mercy because they were not
satisfied with the circumstantial evidence. This was,
at any rate, the statement of the foreman, though
some of his colleagues repudiated it. If this foreman
had found another juryman as addleheaded as him-
self, or if he had been a little more obstinate; she
might have been acquitted. Is it desirable that the
►retched woman should be executed by a " fluke?"

scription of ARTIFICIAL TI3ETII, 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 teeth i hat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti
cation.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—Was there one person or more ?

A DANGEROUS CHARACTER.—A very powerful
rough, giving the name of Dominique Carroll, was
charged with most violent and disgraceful conduct.
Police-constable IlPGelligen, 307 B, said that last
night he was in the Fulham-road, when he saw the
prisoner carrying something very bulky in his
pocket, or under his coat. He grossed to a pawn-
broker's, when witness followed, and saw the pri-
soner give a bundle to another man, having- first
looked about to see whether there was any one
watching. Witness asked prisoner where he got
the parcel—which consisted of a woman's dress
and some brushes—from. He replied that
the things were his own. The other man in
company with the prisoner then rushed out.
Prisoner then struck complainant a violent blow,
and endeavoured to repeat it. He also attacked
the other constable who was present.
Prisoner interrupted the proceedings by exclaim-
ing in a loud voice, " You -- liar. What do you
stand there for and swear a man's life away ?"
Constable—He threatened me in the most dread-
fulmy heart when he got his liberty.
way. lie swore he would run a knife through
Mr. Selfe—Have you made any inquiry about
the dress and brushes ?

Prisoner—l had them given to me to pawn to
get some money. This policeman came up to me
and said " You are a thief, and I'll lock you
up." Don't he deserve to have a knife put into
him ? Why did he show me up in the streets for a
thief ?

Policeman—l have seen his step-father, who says
he broke open his box and stole the brushes, but he
is afraid to come forward to charge him. He says
he is so desperate a character that he would murder
him upon his release.

Prisoner—Oh yes ; you want to get me all that
you can.

William Gunter, 316 prevented his con-
tinuing the assault upon my brother constable, and
then he attacked me. lie knocked me down, and
used the most awful threats towards me.
Mr. Sclfe committed him for two mouths' hard
labour, and required him to find bail for three
months in addition.
