THE VICAR OF FROME AND THE ELECTION.

The Rev. W. J. E. Bennett some little time ago
was so disgusted by the conduct of the Conservatives
towards the advanced Iligh Church party, that he
declined to have anything further to do with the
elections, and took his name off the books at Oxford.
At Frome, however, he has not disfranchised himself,
and has therefore taken advantage of the fact that
the Conservative candidate is the most pliable of
men to extract a pledge from him that he will not
support any fresh legislation with regard to
the ritual or the doctrine or the discipline
of the Church. Serjeant Sleigh had previously tried
two boroughs as a Radical, and is now at this elec-
tion trying his second borough as a Conservative.
So, Mr. Bennett, disregarding this gentleman's ante-
cedents, or rather believing that they would enable
him to deal with the illustrious Old Bailey advocate
the more easily, wrote to him and asked him, inter
alia, whether he would give his vote and influence
so that there should be no alteration hi the Book of
Common Prayer, or of the rites and ceremonies of
the Church. To this question Serjeant Sleigh
returned an answer so satisfactory that Mr.
Bennett published a kind of pastoral on the subject,
announcing that he should cheerfully give his vote
for the learned candidate. The serjeant, we presume,
reckoned that the Ritual party would bring him more
supporters than their opponents ; but it must have
been a nice calculation, for Mr. Sheppard and his
friends, who are conducting the prosecution against
Mr. Bennett, are also Conservatives. The balance of
gain and loss must have been something like that
which Mr. Grant is said to have made in Marylebone,
where he reckoned up the teetotallers against the
publicans, and found that the latter would give him
the greater number of votes.

INDIA.

The Times Calcutta correspondent understands that the
clovernment of India, " acting upon the policy of cautious
activity to which it has been driven by events, has ad-
dressed the home authorities on the subject of some diplo-
matic representations to Russia regarding the neutralisa-
tion, not only of Afghanistan, but of Eastern Turkestan."
There seems to be very little doubt that this couise is
advisable, if not necessary. The Russians have asked
Yakoob Beg of Yarkund for permission to establish a
cantonment, so as to command the best route from Tur-
kestan to India. He had previously refused to have any
dealings with his dangerous neighbours, and his persistent
caution has brought Lim into difficulty. It is reported at
Calcutta that his troops have by various circum-
stances been brought into contact with the Russians,
and have been defeated, and that he is now suing
for peace. If the Russians, as now seems probable,
establish the cantonment at Gumah, on the route to
India, it can hardly be deemed other than a direct menace
to our empire. Yakoob Beg has asked for our help, and
the Indian Government has resolved to give it. The time
has come for Russia and England to arrive at an under-
standing in Central Asia.
The new Irrigation Department has commenced the
stupendous work of artificially supplying water to a region
as large as Europe minus Russia. Plans and surveys are
being made, and the funds offered are practically un-
limited. But the want of competent engineers is a
great, and at present an insuperable, obstacle to
progress. All the men that the Secretary of State
can send might be employed in the Punjab
alone, which bears a ratio to the whole empire
similar to that of Yorkshire to England. Their scale of
pay is one deterrent cause. Then there is red tape, which
can accomplish no great work in a reasonable space of
time. And yet no duty of civilisation can be of greater
importance than the preservation of the vast multitudes
of our Indian subjects from the horrors of famine. In
Central India not 200,000 acres have been irrigated out of
a total area of 123 millions: 11 indostan proper is also
much behind.
ROME.

It is considered certain, says the Liberti, that the Papal
Nuncios at Paris and Vienna will each receive the cardi-
nal's hat at the approaching Consistory. The claims of the
Archbishop of Paris are very strong, and there is reason
to believe that much imutuice has been put forward on his
behalf, but nothing trammires as to his chances of promo-
tion. His Holiness the Pope enjoys excellent health. The
refusal of the Greek Patriarch to accept the invitation to
the General Council of the Church has produced a very un-
favourable impression at Rome. It is known that this
refusal carries with it the whole Greek Church.
Cardinal Antonelli has published an edict materially
reducing the customs and octroi duties. The increasingly
important commercial relations between Rome and the
rest of Italy render this change, which comes into
operation at once, of much importance. Trade with Italy
has previously been greatly impeded by treaties in favour
of France and Germany.

THE MARQUIS OF BUTE.

The Cambria Daily Leader relates the following anec-
dote :—Walking in the castle grounds one day, the
Marquis, perceiving an old man at work, accosted him, and
asked him how long he had been engaged on the estate.
"Years before the death of the late marquis," was the
reply. "Indeed," responded the Marquis, " that's a long
time. What wages do they give you r' " I had twelve
shillings a week and my food, but five years since the food
was stopped, and I have had only the twelve shillings,"
was the reply. " Well, in future you shall have eighteen
shillings a week while you live, whether you work or
not," said the Marquis ; and we need not say
the old man expressed his gratitude in fitting terms.
The old man being a voter, the Marquis asked him
how he intended voting, and grateful for the kindness of
which he had just been the object, the old man replied,
" Just as your lordship pleases." The Marquis : " But
how would you vote were you to please yourself ?"
" Well, my lord," was the reply, "if you have no
objection, I would like to give my vote to the Colonel."
The Maquis laughed, and took leave of the labourer by
saying, "Well, you shall vote to please yourself."

MR. DRIGIIT TRADUCED.

A. statement has been in circulation that when the
corn laws were repealed the wages of the workmen
of Mr. Bright's firm were reduced. In consequence of
that charge a letter was addressed to the workmen, and
fourteen men employed by John Bright and Co.
during periods varying.from twenty-three to forty-
five years, state, " with all honesty, that no reduction
took place in their wages at that time." Lies crop
up so fast at this election that contradicting them is
almost as profitable work as stamping out Greek
fire, but we will do what we can.
"MY HOUSE IS A HOUSE OF pnAyEit."

A woman cannot vote. In the absence of all share
m political excitement, is there nothing better for
her to engage her than frivolous occupations and
amusements ? A woman loves to go to church, and.
will sit patiently for an hour listening to a sermon,
while a man will be goaded almost to madness. It n
therefore hard that the consolations of religion
should be denied her because the sterner
sex is busy about the elections. The Vicar
of Windsor intimated last week to the female portion
of the congregation, and to non-electors, that they
should forego their usual attendance on Sunday even-
ing, that they might afford room for the electors of
the borough. We should like to know what tl e
collect, epistle, and gospel, the proper psalms and
lessons are for the Sunday before the elections, and
whether the correct vestments are of the Tory or
Liberal colours. With the vicar of Windsor they would
probably be the Tory Colonel Gardner's. This vicar
in turning away women from the gate of heaven,
and converting the church into a hustings, was as
cruel and ungallant as the Prophet Mahomet, who,
when asked by an aged woman what her employment
would be in heaven, replied that she need not trouble
herself, for no old women would be admitted there.

JAMAICA

" A Woman " writes to the herald to contradict
Mr. Buxton's statement, that with the exception of
one obnoxious person the Jamaica rioters did not
kill a single white man. She says, besides the murder
of poor Mr. Hire, there were staying with him four
gentlemen (two whites), three of whom were left for
dead. This chief servant fled from the house, and was
never seen again until her skeleton was found. Mr.
Cochrane Sir W. Fitzherbert's bookkeeper, was
murdered' while eating his morning meal.
Of the sufferings of the many whites who
eleaped, only to die of exposure and starva-
tion, but an outline has been told. The
writer, who appears to have been one of the
sufferers, attributes the preservation of the lives of
the white population to the " disinterested and heroic
action " of Governor Eyre. These who were in
Jamaica and those who were at home will always look
upon this melancholy affair with different eyes.
Nothing fresh concerning it can be elicited now, but
t
it seems as if the remembrance of wrong cn both
sides would be like a pent-up fire in a mine, smothered
for a time, but breaking out in its fierceness again
and again.

TIIE BISHOP OF ELY CONDEMNED.

The Archdeacon of Taunton cannot endure any-
thing like moderation or a temperate way of putting
things. He is violent or he is nothing. The Bishop
of Ely lately said at the " Ely Diocesan Conference "
that he did not consider the separation of Church
and State to be the end which Mr. Gladstone had in
view. Archdeacon Denison says it is no time for
conventionalities, and writes to the Standard: "Now,
seeing that, so far from there being any room for
doubt that separation of Church and State' is 'the aim
which Mr. Gladstone has in view,' he has in terms
proposed and carried it in the House of Commons.
One of two things is clear—either the Bishop of Ely
has overlooked this, the leading fact of the time, or
he is of opinion that disestablishment in Ireland can
be separated in principle from disestablishment in
England. This last is the fatal mistake of some English
Churchmen. It amounts in substance to the denial of
the national value and necessity of the Reformation.
It is a hard thing to see it endorsed by a bishop."
The Archdeacon must know that Mr. Gladstone holds
the Irish Church to be a satire upon the principle of
State Churches in general, and that he dces not by
his course in the matter intend to attack the
principle of Church and State. The Bishop of Ely,
being a fair man, accepts this explanation ; Arch-
deacon Denison, being a partisan, will not allow it.

MR. MILL AND THE CLERKS.

At Burton-on-Trent the Tories are circulating hand-
bills containing an extract from Mr. J. S. Mill's
" Political Economy," and professing to be an attack
upon the character and status of commercial clerks.
The handbill is addressed to clerks, and is issued
in the interest of the Conservative candidate, as it
bears the somewhat ludicrous inscription, "If you want
your salary raised, plump for Hartley." Such a production
can do little harm ; but in order to deprive it of all effect,
Mr J3seph Buxton, en elector of Burton-on-Trent, has
thought proper to write to Mr. Mill, enclosing him a copy
of the handbill. The following is Mr. Mill's reply :

"Dear Sir,—Tho passage which the Tories, it seems,
aro thinking it worth while to erenlate, formed part
of a discussion as to why it happens that there is so
great ar. inequality in the nmuneration of different
kinds of labour. It was necessary, in that dis-
cussion, to point out that labour which requires
evcn a very small amount of literary education has
hitherto borne a sort of monopoly price, and that the
great difference there is between its remuneration and
that of most kinds of manual labour has no foundation in
the nature of things. But I was far from intending to
imply that the labour of clerks, even when mere copyists,
is too highly remunerated. My object is not that the
clerk should have less, but that the labourer should
have more ; and 1 feel certain that the ultimate effect of the
spread of education will be to hing the two to a level (or
nearer b), in this I er way, i!!,, Lois lof the other, and the
worse.— am. d.;tr sir. To. faithfOly, J. STriatT

THE PRIVY COUNCIL AND THE RITUALISTS.

"A Layman" writes to the Daily News, protesting
against a rumoured appointment which either is or is
about to be made. It is reported that Sir Joseph
Napier has been sworn a member of the Privy
Council, in order that he may be one of the judges
to try the case of Martin v. Mackonochie, which
comes on in a few clays. The objection to this
appointment is that Sir Joseph has already passed
judgment upon the matter at issue, and that as one
of the Ritual Commissioners he shewed himself openly
the partisan of the Low Church party. " A Lay-
man" also objects to the presence of the Lord
Chancellor, who is a Presbyterian. There
is less force in the second objection than
in the first. The question to be decided is,
what is, not what should be, the law of the English
Church. Lord Cairns may be, and no doubt is,
utterly opposed to the ritual which it is endeavoured
to suppress, and yet come to the conclusion that it is
legal in the English Church. Sir Joseph Napier's
case is different; he has already announced his deci-
sion in language that admits of no qualification, and
it is therefore a farce for him to sit and hear the
arguments. The decision of such a tribunal is not
ikely to inspire much confidence or respect.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS.

ARCHDEACON ALLEN AND THE "RECORD."

Archdeacon Allen, a Broad Churchman; is having
a battle royal with the Record. A certain correspon-
dent of that paper, who signs himself " Nestor,' but
who is well known to be an ultra Low Church
dean, Dr. Law, of Gloucester, has been attacking the
Archdeacon, and the Record refused to publish the
latter dignitary's reply ; whereupon great anger
on the part of the Archdeacon, great abuse
on the part of the editor of the Record, who turns
out to be a certain Rev. Samuel Wainwright, vicar
of Holy Trinity, Micklegate, York, secretary to the
Islington Protestant Institute, and a St. Bee's ?man.
It is this last fact which has made the Record so
bitter against the Archdeacon. Some time ago he
published a letter in one of the papers, in which he
held up the St. Bee's men to ridicule for their pro-
found ignorance of matters both secular and
religious, and gave a specimen of their answers
at the examinations by the bishops' examining
chaplains. The Record never forgets nor forgives : so
the Archdeacon of Salop is marked for the poisoned
arrows of that most profoundly religious and un-
christian journal

MR. BRIGHT TRADUCED.

A. statement has been in circulation that when the
corn laws were repealed the wages of the workmen
of Mr. Bright's firm were reduced. In consequence of
that charge a letter was addressed to the workmen, and
fourteen men employed by John Bright and Co.
during periods varying from twenty-three to forty-
five years, state, " with all honesty, that no reduction
took place in their wages at that time." Lies crop
up so fast at this election that contradicting them is
almost as profitable work as stamping out Greek
fire, but we will do what we can.

"DIY HOUSE IS A HOUSE OF PRAYER."
A woman cannot vote. In the absence of all share
in political excitement, is there nothing better for
her to engage her than frivolous occupations and
amusements ? A woman loves to go to church, and
will sit patiently for an hour listening to a sermon,
while a man will be goaded almost to madness. It n
therefore hard that the consolations of religion
should be doniell har hp_milga the sterner
sex is busy about the elections. The Vicar
of Windsor intimated last wee's. to the female portion
of the congregation, and to non-electors, that they
should forego their usual attendance on Sunday even-
ing, that they might afford room for the electors of
the borough. We should like to know what aa
collect, epistle, and gospel, the proper psalms and
lessons are for the Sunday before the elections, and
whether the correct vestments are of the Tory or
Liberal colours. With the vicar of Windsor they would
probably be the Tory ColDnel Gardner's. This vicar

in turning away women from the gate of heaven,
and converting the church into a hustings, was as
cruel and ungallant as the Prophet Mahomet, who,
when asked by an aged woman what her employment
would be in heaven, replied that she need not trouble
herself, for no old women would be admitted there.

EMERY IN HIGH QUARTERS. A

A curious incident has transpired at ewsbuiY.
Great excitement was exhibited by the crowd sur-
rounding the hustings, who had heard rumours of a
compromise. The candidates were Mr. Clement
(L.), Mr. B. Crawford (L.), and Mr. Figgins (C.)
When Mr. Crawford came forward he deliberately.
stated, on his honour, on his oath, that he had been
offered £BOO if he would leave the other candidates
in possession of the field. £3OO had been offered his
London agent if he would " see the matter through.".
Mr. Clement denies all knowledge of the circum-
stance, and Mr. Crawford believes his word. A.
statement of the matter is to be prepared, and the
affair can hardly end here. It is a farce to preach
against bribery to poor and needy electors, and then
to set them such an example as this.

MISCELLANEOUS NE JVS.

ARCHDEACON ALLEN AND THE "RECORD."

Archdeacon Allen, a Broad Churchman, is having
a battle royal with the Record. A certain correspon-
dent of that paper, who signs himself " Nestor,' but
who is well known to be an ultra Low Church
dean, Dr. Law, of Gloucester, has been attacking the
Archdeacon, and the Record refused to publish the
latter dignitary's reply; whereupon great anger
on the part of the Archdeacon, great abuse
on the part of the editor of the Record, who turns
out to be a certain Rev. Samuel Wainwright, vicar
of Holy Trinity, Micklegate, York, secretary to the
Islington Protestant Institute, and a St. Bee's man.
It is this last fact which has made the Record so
bitter against the Archdeacon. Some time ago he
published a letter in one of the papers, in which he
held up the St. Bee's men to ridicule for their pro-
found ignorance of matters both secular and
religious, and gave a specimen of their answers
at the examinations by the bishops' examining
chaplains. The Record never forgets nor forgives: so
the Archdeacon of Salop is marked for the poisoned
arrows of that most Profoundly religious and un-
christian journal

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 teeth that are loose, and is gua_
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation. . _

SPAIN.

The electoral manifesto of the Olozaga Committee has
been well received in Spain. It is, or aims to be, a fusion
of the republican and monarchist principles ; it pro-
nounces for a king, but declares against the supremacy of
any one family, and demands the election a the sovereign
by universal suffrage. Strenuous efforts are being made
to ensure the success of this programme. Manifestoes
are distributed in all directions, emissaries have been sent
to various parts of the country, and great meetings are
being held in the principal towns. The Liberte thinks the
adoption of this scheme by an influential party is a very
gloomy symptom. Certainly, there is abundant evidence
that the different sections are intriguing in all directions.
Whatever form of government is henceforth to rule
over Spain, it is quite time that it entered upon its
duties.

on Sunday last were everywhere most enthusi-

the principles 1 down in the mani-

been received, and there is no doubt that the prin-
ciple of that document will be agreed to by a very
great majority of the Deputies who will be elected
to the Constituent Cortes.

The most admirable order prevails everywhere in

W ESTMIN STE R.

A DRUNKEN CABMAN.—Joseph Flint, a cab pro-
prietor and driver, badge 5,380, was charged with
being drunk in his employment as a hackney car-
riage driver.

Charles Hemmings, 79 B, said ho was on duty
at the police-station, Rochester-row, and saw the
prisoner drive by at twenty minutes to eight.
Shortly after he passed the station he became en-
tangled with two chaise horses. Witness went and
found that prisoner was drunk, and he locked him
up ; there was no damage done.

Prisoner said he was driving two ladies from
Charing-cross, and file horses were loose without
any one looking after them; he was not incapable
of taking care of the horse although he had had a
glass of drink.
Sergeant Mathews, 12 B, proved that prisoner
was drunk ; he took the charge.
Mr. Arnold said it was very disgraceful conduct
and a very bad example to set his men. He fined
him 10s. or seven days.
