THE PRIMACY.

The Advertiser gives the substance of a communi-
cation from a correspondent who professes to have
obtained his information from a high quarter. It
refers to the vacant archbishopric. This was offered
to the Bishop of London, but that prelate refused on
account of the state of his health, as he considered
the appointment would involve more numerous and
onerous:duties than he has at present. According
to the same authority, the Archbishop of York
has accepted the Archbishopric of Canterbury.
The Bishop of Oxford is to be the new Archbishop
of York. Our contemporary cannot
.credit these
statements. and for once we at,r. ee with hm. for ninny

The Liberal papers are all indignant at the appoint-
ment of Messrs. Courtenay and Fleming to the
position of sub-inspectors of workhouses. One of
them attacks very earnestly the " original " Fleming,
the permanent secretary of the Poor-law Board. It
hints that Mr. Fleming's influence has been used
" against those who give trouble by exposing
evil; " that he has caused the banishment
of one inspector because of the outspoken
consistency with which he had fought the battle of
the poor ; that he has exacted a tacit agreement " to
keep things quiet " and " on no account to come into
collision with the guardians," and that his conduct
requires investigation. Further, he stands at the
head of a system which it will be the duty of the new
Parliament to uproot.

SPAIN.

The expected decree on the freedom of public worship
has not yet made its appearance. The correspondent of
the Daily News says there is a division on this point in the
Ministry. Prim and others are for complete freedom
and total separation between the Catholic Church and the
State, whilst others desire Catholicism to remain as the
religion of the State, toleration and protection being
granted to all other creeds. Olozaga, who has much in-
2uence with the Ministry, firmly insists upon the latter
Vnclusion. The difficulty will be left to the Cortes.
A revolution in the Spanish newspaper press is impera-
.fively needed. The journals of Madrid are infamous.
They are so badly printed that large portions of them are
unreadable ; they dispense altogether with articles or cor-
respondence, and their contents are made up of hundreds
of miscellaneous paragraphs jumbled together, a mélange
of gossip, scandal, and lies. Sometimes a paragraph takes
a month to "go the round." Yet, so eager is the demand
of the Spaniards for mental food, that these prints are
largely circulated, the Correspondencia selling 50,000

THE FRENCH ATLANTIC CABLE.

France is also to have her Atlantic cable. It will
not be long—if things go smoothly—before messages
will pass into France direct from America without
having to come to Valentia. The cable will be sub-
stantially the same as the one connecting the United
States with this country ; the same company to make
it, and the same well-known names in connection
with it. Two thousand seven hundred and eighty-
eight nautical miles of cable have to be and are
being constructed at Greenwich. The most interest-
ing part of the process seems to be the preparation
of the gutta percha coating which preserves the wires
under the sea. This must be in a very peculiar con-
dition. It must stick well to the wires, and yet be so
constructed as not to interfere with insulation. The
gutta percha must be pure. It comes from Singa-
pore in various shapes. The process for elimi-
nating foreign matter is most elaborate. First the
blocks—some of them old idols—must be cut into
shreds, then torn into very small pieces ; after
softening, forced through fine wire gauze, washed in
boiling water, then kneaded, then put on the wire.
The most delicate tests electricians can devise are
applied, after which the coated wires are sent to
another manufactory to be finished.

THE DUKE OE BRABANT.

The Prince Ro3 al of Belgium is reported to be de-
cidedly better, and the correspondent of the Post thinks
even his recovery is not an impossibility. The poor youth
sleeps more and more soundly, his appetite is still good,
the cough abated, and no puncture has been found
necessary for above a week. The water has disappeared
to such an extent as to reduce the limbs nearly to their
natural size. He is confined indoors, but is able to get up
every day.

CAMBRIAN OR ANGLICAN.

The question whether the county of Monmouth
belongs to England or Wales is decided by " S.S.P."
in a letter to the Times. lie quotes from several
Acts as to Monmouth, the inference from which is,
that Monmouth is and always has been in England.
The Welsh courts which were set up never had
power to try cases in the county of Monmouth. All
Chancery cases were sent to the English courts. The
county forms part of the Oxford Circuit, and in all
Acts of Parliament it is acknowledged as part of
England.

MISS ENERGY.

In a mandate to the priests of Louth, Archbishop
Kieran earnestly implores them to " direct the ener-
gies of their flocks in such a way as to secure the
return of two Liberal members at the next election."
Everyone knows what Irish energies are, and how they
find vent. A Paddy's energies are so irrepressible
that he will fight his friend for the very love of him.
One moment Pat's arm will be round Mike's
neck, and he will blubber upon his sympa-
thetic bosom ; the next moment one or both
will have a cracked crown, for which his
friend's shillelagh is responsible. An Irishman must
fight, especially at fairs and elections. One would
have thought that the Archbishop would have desired
his friends to control their energies. No ; they must
direct them, and forcible arguments addressed to the
electors can, of course, be refuted only by similar
weapons. Irish Protestants can fight as well as Irish
Catholics, but surely the leaders on either side are
not so mad as to add fuel to the fire of an electityi.‘
which promises to bA tixwangiTy

THE 111.1611 cnuricir.
"W. R. G." has more to say on the subject of the
Irish Church. The scheme of disestablishment and
disendowment, he thinks, bids fair to divide the
Liberal party, and an influential section reluctantly
follows the leader. He proceeds to remove what he
calls one or two popular errors. He denies that the
Catholic masses pay for the support of the Ch.urch.
If the tithe were abolished to-morrow not one shilling
of the remission would go into the pockets of the
cultivators of the soil. Another popular impression
is that the Catholic clergy
.are poorly paid.
They are in receipt of average incomes, large, or
larger, than the Protestants. He complains that the
statements published as to the Protestant popula-
tion are incorrect and unca,ndid, and says that the
fewer the number of Protestants the less able are
they to maintain a minister at their own charge.
He repeats most of the old arguments in favour of
the maintenance of the Irish Church, and complains
that it is not known how her property will be disposed
of. He says : " What puzzles me most is, that so sincere
and lucid a mind as Mr. Gladstone's should reckon
the sum which he proposes to pay to the proprietors
of livings for their advowsons as a portion of the
endowments which the Church is to retain." The
English Church must follow the Irish. "W. R. G."
proposes that the latter should be disestablished,
but not disendowed. The disestablishment would
involve only the retirement of the Irish bishops from
the House of Lords. Although "W. R. G."
disbelieves altogether in the theological position of
the Church, and is not a member of it, he regards
the problem from a statesman's point of view, and
contemplates the impending changes with dismay.

IRISH ENERGY.

In a mandate to the priests of Louth, Archbishop
Kieran earnestly implores them to " direct the ener-
gies of
their flocks in such a way as to secure the
return of two Liberal members at the next election."
Everyone knows what Irish energies are, and how they
find vent. A Paddy's energies are so irrepressible
that he will fight his friend for the very love of him.
One moment Pat's arm will be round Mike's
neck, and he will blubber upon his sympa-
thetic bosom ; the next moment one or both
will have a cracked crown, for which his
friend's shillelagh is responsible. An Irishman must
fight, especially at fairs and elections. One would
have thought that the Archbishop would have desired
his friends to control their energies. No • they must
direct them, and forcible arguments addressed to the
electors can, of course, be refuted only by similar
weapons. Irish Protestants can fight as well as Irish
Catholics, but surely the leaders on either side are
not so mad as to add fuel to the fire of an election
whiPl3 nromises to bn unusin_liv

THE 1.11,16 R CHURCH.
" W. R. G." has more to say on the sub-ject of the
Irish Church. The scheme of disestablishment and
disendowment, he thinks, bids fair to divide the
Liberal party, and an influential section reluctantly
follows the leader. He proceeds to remove what he
calls one or two popular errors. He denies that the
Catholic masses pay for the support of the Church.
If the tithe were abolished to-morrow not one shilling
of the remission would go into the pockets of the
cultivators of the soil. Another popular impression
is that the Catholic clergy are poorly paid.
They are in receipt of average incomes, large, or
larger, than the Protestants. He complains that the
statements published as to the Protestant popula-
tion are incorrect and uncandid, and says that the
fewer the number of Protestants the less able are
they to maintain a minister at their own charge.
He repeats most of the old arguments in favour of
the maintenance of the Irish Church, and complains
that it is not known how her property will be disposed
of. He says : " What puzzles me most is, that so sincere
and lucid a mind as Mr. Gladstone's should reckon
tne sum winch lie proposes to pay to the proprietors
of livings for their advowsons as a portion of the

LORD GROSVENOR AT CHESTER.

In the course of a speech at Chester, Lord Grosvenor
said he might mention that several friends of his who
bad acted with him had been offered high office when
Lord Derby's Government came in, and every one of
those gentlemen refused to take office under Lord Derby.
He might also mention that just about that time,
before Mr. Hodgkinson's amendment was brought
forward, Lord Derby honoured him (Earl Grosvenor) with
an invitation to accept the vacant Chancellorship of the
Duchy of Lancaster. His reasons for refusing it were,
first, that he did not wish to leave the party with whom
he had always previously acted; and, secondly, that he
thought the Conservative Reform Bill was so objec-
tionable that it was impossible for him to take office under
Lord Derby. He gave the Conservatives every possible
credit, and he thought they were entitled to it, for having
passed a Reform Bill ; but he could not understand how
they could have the face to come before the country and
claim credit for having passed the provisions of
that bill. Everyone of those provisions was pressed
upon them by the Liberal party, the only rag
left of their Reform Bill being the ratepaying
clause, which was perhaps the only portion of the bill
that required amendment or repeal. He heard it said
the other day, and it might be very charitable to suppose,
that the Conservatives who put forward those claims
had been so often turned round that they had become
dizzy. He denounced the injustice of the Irish
Church Establishment. Upon the game laws he
said he did not know why a landlord should not be
allowed to have pheasants and partridges and hares if he
pleased, as well as chickens and turkeys in a farmyard.
The law might provide that compensation should be given to
tenants where there was a large amount of game. He
believed if game were to be abolished it would be a peat
loss, not only to the owners of property, but to the public
generally, who liked to have their hares and pheasants
at Christmas. In conclusion the noble earl expressed
himself opposed to the ballot, and an advocate for courts
of conciliation between workmen and their employers, and
for greater facilities being given for the acquiring of land
in this country.

A CLERGYMAN'S REBUKE.

The Rector of Oldswinford having some little time
ago married his servant, he justified his conduct to
his parishioners from the pulpit. In that sermon,
while preaching doctrines of equality, he took care to
remind his hearers of his own high birth. He has
now issued a pamphlet, addressed to the " penny-
a-liners," which is a most extraordinary production:
He abuses them roundly, and defends the choice
of his old age. He thinks thus of his
much-honoured wife. "She was my cook, but of
that order a member of which is called in language
more polite, if of the male sex, a Maitre-dllotel or
Chef—if of the female, a Cordon Bleu. And, by
the shades of Careme, of Beauvilliers, and of Ude,
I vow it is to me no easy matter to determine that
one who has attained, as far as woman may, to pro-
ficiency in their high art and mystery, has displayedless
talent than is required for the conduct of a coalpit,
an iron-work, a brickfield, or a glasshouse; for perus-
ing novels, even of French, for working a banner-
screen, or a cushion, or performing indifferently on the
piano." He is very angry with the ladies of his congrega-
tion for staring at his wife. His effusion is a verbose
and extraordinary one, and the unsophisticated Mrs.
Craufurd must be no less astonished than gratified at
this chivalric defence. Far different was the conduct
of the incumbent of St. John the Baptist, Peter-
borough, who married a schoolmistress, after the
death of his father, the bishop, and issued a
pamphlet, addressed to his parishioners, which was
little more than an abject apology.
