The Ritual Commissioners have issued their re-
port on the subject of incense and altar lights. Having
in a previous report condemned any departure from the
style of vesture in use in the Church since the Reforma-
tion, they now think that the use of incense and of lighted
candles on the "altar in the Commuaion service should
be restrained, as it is clearly at variance, they say, with
the Church's usage for 300 years. The "speedy and in-
expensive remedy " which the Commissioners suggest
should be provided for parishioners aggrieved by the in-
troduction of incense and candles is as follows :—" First,
that whensoever it shall be found necessary, that order
be taken concerning the same, the usage of the Church of
England and Ireland as above stated to have prevailed
for the last 300 years, shall be deemed to be the rule of
the Church in respect of vestments, lights, and incense ;
aud, secondly, that parishioners may make formal appli-
cation to the bishop in camera, and the bishop, on such
application, shall be bound to inquire; into the matter of
the complaint ; and if it shall thereby appear that there
has been a variation from established usago by the
introduction of vestments, lights, or incense in the
public services of the Church, he shall take order
forthwith' for the discontinuance of such variation,
and be enabled to enforce the same summarily."
The Commissioners also think that the determination of
the bishop on such application "should be subject to ap-
peal to the archbishop of the province in camera, whose
decision thereon shall be final; provided always, that if
it should appear to either party that the decision of the
bishop or archbishop is open to question on any legal
ground a case may be stated by the party dissatisfied, to
be certified by the bishop or archbishop as correct, and
then submitted by the said party for the decision of the
Court of the archbishop without pleading or evidence,
with a right of appeal to the Privy Council, and with
power for the Court, if the statement of the case should
appear to be in any way defective, to refer back such case
to the bishop or archbishop for amendment." Precautions
are suggested to prevent " frivolous applications " from
being brought before the bishop. The Commissioners
intimate that their intention in making these recommenda-
tions is simply to provide a special facility for restraining
variations from established usage, without interfering
with the general law of the church as to ornaments or the
ordinary remedies now in force. The recommendations
of the Commissioners with respect to the rubrics, orders,
and directions contained in the Prayer Book will form
the subject of the next report.
The Pope has sent to the Princess Margaret,
wife of the Crown Prince of Italy, a magnificent gold
panel, on which a Madonna by Raphael is framed.
The newspapers are teeming with references to econo-
my in tea by co-operation. Hornistan and Co. have for 30
years co- operated through Agents to supply tea on more
advantageous terms than by the ordinary channel; their tea
reaches the consumer in the same pure elate as it leaves the
grower, as it is secured in packets.

A serious disagreement has occurred between Prussia
and Hesse Darmstadt respecting the right to gdrrison the
Rhino fortress of Mainz, or Mayence, as it is more
generally called. By the treaty of April 11, 1867, it
was agreed that all the Hessian troops should enter
the Prussian army as an entire division, and be
placed under the command of the King of Prussia. But
Hesse Darmstadt is situated partly to the north and
partly to the south of the Mein, and the Grand Duke
contends that the troops raised upon the latter portion,
including Mainz, are independent of Prussia, since the
line of the Mein once passed, the Treaty of Prague will
be violated. Prussia, however, will not hear of this, for
to the possession of Mainz she attaches the greatest im-
portance. Prussia has endeavoured to overcome the diffi-
culty by a slight concession, but the Hessian Minister of
War, rather than accept it, has resigned.
The Budget of the Russian Minister of War presents a
considerable increase as compare with last year's. The
total amount is over 15/ millions sterling—an increase of
about £1,326,000 over 1867. This augmentation has been
caused almost entirely by the greater cost of food.
It is reported that Omar Pasha will be appointed to the
command of the Turkish army on the Danube, which is
now to be placed on a war footing, in view of the even-
tualities which the Porte fears will occur among the
Servians. Despite the pacific declarations fro m Belgrade,
Servia appears to be steadily carrying out its design of
uniting all the Slave population so as to bring about a
general movement in European Turkey.
It is believed that General Klapka, the well-known
Hungarian revolutionist, will be made Minister of War
fur Hungary. Should this expectation prove correct, it
will shew how complete is the reconciliation between
Francis Joseph and his Magyar subjects, bow useless and
unpatriotic is the protest of Kossuth against the nem set-
tlement.

Count Crivelli, the Austrian Ambassador at Rome, has
just died suddenly of apoplexy. His death occurs at a
critical moment, and just when the relations between the
two countries are very " strained." There is little dolibt
that he will be succeeded by Baron Afeysenburg, who is in
high favour at the Vatican, and will, if anyone can,
induce the Pope to accept the n.o lification of the
Concordat.

According to the Liberte, the Dutch are getting very
dissatisfied with their political condition. They see their
country falling into the same condition as Spain, Greece,
and Roumania—subject to perpetual changes of govern-
ment; and they are losing faith both in the constitution
and the dynasty.

The seat now vacant in East Worcestershire, through
the accession of the Hon. F. H. Calthorpo to the peerege,
is not likely to be contested in the prospect of a rapidly
approaching dissolution. From 1832, when the present
Secretary of State for War was an unsuccessful
candidate, to 1837, the division returned two Liberals.
During the next ten years the representation was
exclusively Conservative, and from 1847 to 1859 a member
of each party was returned. In that year the Liberals
again sent in both their men ; Mr. Pakington, son of the
Secretary of War, having been defeated by a majority of
nearly 400. Since that year the Conservatives have made
no sign, but it is quite understood that they will contest
one of the seats under the new Reform Act. It is pro-
bable that the Hon. G. C. Lyttelton, eldest son of Lord
Lyttelton, will now enjoy a walk over.
In Exeter, where under the old system there have been
many severe contests since 1832, politicians are prepar-
ing for the coming contest. Fortune, as in many other
places, has varied with both parties in the ancient city.
At one election only has it returned two Liberals, and
that was amid the flush of triumph which immediately suc-
ceeded the passing of the first Reform Bill. From 1835 to
1864 it was jointly represented ; then for the first time for
more than thirty years two Conservatives sat for Exeter.
In 1865, however, each party returned its candidate unop-
posed. For some time past it has been understood that
the Liberals would bring out a second competitor, and Mr.
J. C. Bowring has announced that he is ready to come
forward, but not in any way to endanger the scat of Mr.
Coleridge. Lord Courtenay, the present Conservative
member, will of course offer himself for re-election, and a
seopd MiAisteriql candidate 4 4139 spokep, of.
