PROXIMITY OF ENGLAND AND THE U. STATES
The New York Commercial Advertiser, in announ-
cling the arrival of the steamship Europa from Liver
pool says:
A friend, who made the passage in her, showed
US, what was indeed curiosity and striking Illus
tration of the close proximity to which the two
tries now brought a fragrant bouquet of ge-
raniums and other flowers apparently as fresh as
before. Yet they were gathered in Manchester, a
place distant, we believe about forty miles from
Liverpool. The same friend also informed that
the flowers placed in tumbler of water on the
any kind of fastening whatever, stood unmoved dur
ing the whole trip from port to port, except when
taken up to have the water replenished from which
fact infer that the Europa must have made smooth
sailing upon smooth sea. We subsequently mott
ced that several gentlemen had equally fresh flowers
in their possession

BEAUTIFUL INcIDENT.-It is stated that during
the first few days of the reign of Queen Victoria,
then girl between 10 and 20 years Of age, some
sentences of court-martal were presented for sig
nature One was death for desertion; a soldier was
condemned to be shot, and his death warrant was
presented to the Queen for her signature. She read
1t before her. and said Have you nothing to say
behalf of this man o. ssNothing; he has deserted
three times said the officer. Think again, my
lord" was her reply. "Andn said the gallant vete-
ran, as he related the circumstances his friends
for 1t was other than the Duke of Wellington,
seeing her Majesty earnest about it. said, he is
certainly bad soldier, but there somebody who
spoke to his good character, and he may be good
man Tor aught know to the contrary" Oh, thank
you thousand times, exclaimed the youthful queen,
and hastily writing pardoned in large characters on
the fatal page. she sent it the table, her hand
trembling with eagerness and beautiful emotion.
CARLYLE ON SLAvERY-The following anecdote is
told in the Editors Table of the last Graham's Mag
azne, strongly illustrative of the nature of the rough
shod essayist Thomas Carlyle 1t appears that ar
American lady travelling in England paid visit t.
Iomney, under the impression that he was g grea
phlanthropist,' and Immediately opened the
satlon with remarks in favor of the abolition
slavery: "He growled out bitter reioinder, il
which he took strong grounds in favor of that insti
tuition, and denounced all aboltionists sentimen
tai fools and dunkies. The lady, irritated and
prised, hit instantly on the true womans method
the orgument,m ad homin,tn, and put the startling
question, How, Mr. Carlyle should you like to be
slave :" He dated his person to its full dimensions
and IN his broad Scotch brogue exclaimed, 'Well,
should like to be great bull-neaked niger, ant
have some body to take care of me! j" We imagin

dollars-the most of which amassed by his fa-

PEEL seems to have been educated for political life,
and upon becoming of age Joined the old tory party;
but in connection with the Duke of Wellington, he
was instrumental in passing the Catholic Emancipa-
ton Bill of 1929 which be considered the first ad
towards more liberal system of policy. More
recently he has been distinguished of the
strongest and most able advocates of liberal COM
mercial system in England and it mainly thro'
his influence that the repeal of the Corn laws was
passed through the British Parliament. His course
upon this question lost him the support of the tory
party, who transferred the allegiance to Lord GEO
BENTINcK, and more recently to Lord STANLr, who
appears to be the present exponent of the protection
ist interest in England.

to effect tangible reformation than to make speech.
