articles in the number—not necessary hero to be
particularised are of a very miscellaneous cha-

ratter.

The Dublin. No. 123. Burns, Oates, and Co.
This is the nineteenth number of the New Series,
or, in other words, of the Dublin .Redivivus. As the
chief organ of the Catholics of the United Kingdom,
it holds its own, now, with the best of its contem-
poraries. It is solid, without being ponderous. It
is, as a rule, perfectly frank and plain-spoken. Its
purpose there is no possibility of misapprehending.
The present number in ability, no less than in plain-
speaking, is above the average. The place of honour
is accorded, as is but right, to a very able and ap-
preciative review of the last three volumes of the
Count de Montalembert's great work, "The Monks
of the West." Of that noble and illustrious author,
we are charmed to see that the Dublin writes thus
emphatically :

"There is a spontaneous sincerity, a chivalrous devo-
tion, a simple love of truth for truth's own sake, an utter
unselfishness, a frank and hearty manliness about Lis
character which compel one to feel that difference with
him, however warm or even bitter it may be, can only be
difference for the moment; and that whenever or wherever
error may make itself manifest, no consideration of con-
sequences, no false sense of consistency, would keep him
for a second on the wrong side. How often, how touch-
ingly has his career, cast in such difficult, and to him
peculiarly burdensome days, proved this—days in which
there have been many good, but not very many great Ca-
tholic public men—but which history will not pronounce
to have been altogether barren in that respect, seeing that
Ireland gave us in them O'Connell, and France 31onta-
lambert."

As the sufficiently important theme of the second
contribution, we have a commentary upon " Arch-
bishop Manning on the Centenary"—in the very
preamble of which we find the reviewer remarking
that-66 We shall not be misunderstood then,
if we say that we doubt whether the Archbishop
has ever published a more important production
than the Pastoral before us. It is a pamphlet in-
deed, and not a volume ; but it contains the mate-
rial for many volumes. Not to speak of its other
valuable contents, it comprises a most careful and
well-weighed instruction, how to exhibit the
Church's doctrine (1) on her own internal consti-
tution, and (2) on her relations with the State, in
the shape most accommodated to the cir-
cumstances of this time. This is a task, if we
may be allowed to say so, for which the
Archbishop is peculiarly fitted." Two dis-
tinct contributions to Hagiography are num-
bered among the contents of this current num-
ber of the Dublin, one relating to " S. Cyprian,"
the other to "S. Thomas, of Canterbury"—of the
latter of whom, hoWever, we have here only the first
ball of the biography. "Doctrinal Apostolic Letters"
and " Popular Education in England" merit exa-
mination—the latter more particularly. " The
Second Man Verified in History " is the eccen-
tric title of a paper which is simply the sequel
of one published in the preceding number
of the Review, under the title of " The First
and Second Man." The political article of the num-
ber, the drift of which may readily be conjectured,
bas reference to " Rome and the Revolution." In
it but small gratitude—we should not be far out if
We said plainly that no gratitude at all—is evidenced
towards the Emperor Napoleon 111. Not thus re-
ticent, however, has been Pope Pius the Ninth,
whose reference to the French Emperor, in connec-
tion with recent events it cannot be forgotten, was
Couched in language of the most elevated panegyric.
It seems to us ungrateful and ungracious on the
part of the Dublin Review its referring so slightingly
to the Imperial Master of M. Rouher.

HER MAJESTY.

OSBORNE, Jan. 21.

The Queen drove out yesterday afternoon, ac-
companied by Princess Christian and Princess Hen-
riette of Schleswig-Holstein ; and her Majesty
Walked in the grounds this morning, accompanied
by Princess Christian.

Their Royal Highnesses Prince Arthur, Prince
Leopold, and Princesses Louise and Beatrice also
Went out.

CABINET COUNCIL.—A Cabinet Council was
held yesterday at the official residence of the First Lord
of the Treasury in Downing street. The Ministers present
Were the Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Marlborough, the
Earl of Mahnesbury, the Right Hon. Gathorne Hardy,
Lord Stanley, the Duke of Buckingham and Chandos, Sir
a Pakington, Sir S. Northcote, the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, the Right Hon. H. T. L. Corry, the Duke of
Richmond, Lord J. Manners, the Earl of Mayo, and the
Eight Hon. Spencer Walpole.
THE TRAGEDY IN MUNICH.—The Augsburg
Gazette says :—" Count Chorinski, who was arrested
at Munich in consequence of the violent death of his wife,
has just confessed that his mistress, the Baroness Ebery-
"qi, was the perpetrator of the crime. The latter, how-
ever, %I ho is in prison at Vienna, had continually denied all
Participation in the murder, but on the declaration of her
Paramour having been shown to her she confessed her
gailt. The judicial inquiry is still continuing, and the
husband and his mistress will shortly be brought to trial
at Munich and Vienna respectively ; they will not be con-
fronted, as the Bavarian tribunal will not allow Count
Chorinski to be removed to Vienna, and the Austrian
authorities refuse the extradition of the Baroness Ebery-
helayi.,,

CRUELTY TO PAUPERS.—At the Exeter Guild-
hall,, on Monday, a pauper brought up for refractory con-
duct Was said to have used violence to a police-officer who
bad enforced his warrant by " putting on the twist." 'The
Itorkhouse porter, who employed the phrase, appeared to
regard the process as both familiar and legitimate. Every
°°e, however, may not know what "the twist" is, or how
c
i 8 "put on." According to the account of the pauper
Zho underwent the operation it consists of seizing a man
3? the wrist and with a firm grasp endeavouring to turn
the
arrn in its socket. Its effect, like that of " tail twist-
employed to hasten over-driven bullocks, is im-
bladiate. The pain is so severe that the sufferer sue-
qtalbs to it involuntarily. It is, in fact, in the nature,
".11d may not be improperly described as a partial applioa-
`l°ll of the rack. The accused pauper, who seemed in this
respect to speak truthfully, declared that after an interval
I,c'f, a' day or more he felt the pain in his arm still. From
his manner in the court it was apparent that he was
°f Marta temper, and the gravamen of the charge against
tti Was " muttering" against the master; but he was an
aged man, suffering from internal disease, and under
kedical care.

OUTRAGEOUS BURGLARY.—At Dewsbury, on Mon-
tlaY, James Sanderson, a collier, was charged with
entering the dwelling of Mr. Brook, of Liversedge, and
assaulting that gentleman and his housekeeper, Miss Ex-
-63r, and stealing money from the person of the latter. The
tlisoner, it appeared, went with two men to Mr. Brook's,
'1 having their faces disguised by whiting and strips of
raister. They throttled the housekeeper, and having
held
her down, they rifled her pockets, while they
knocked
her with her face on the floor. Mr. Brook they
down too, but he defended himself with a knife,
4
tnade such an alarm that they ran off. The prisoner
was remanded.
