The French claim to be the politest nation
in the world, but they seem to have curious
ideas upon the subject of good breeding. M.
Vermoul, for instance, the editor of the Cour-
rier FraneaiS, had the misfortune to publish
in his paper something distasteful to Nj. Louis
de Cassagnac, son of the editor of the Pays.
NJ dc Cassagnac accordingly follows M. Yer
moul through the streets, splitting all over him,
and then publishes boastful account OF the
outrage in his fathers newspaper. lie is not
punished for the assault, and we have no evil
dence that even public opinion has pronounced
against him. On the other hand, young stu
dent named Casse wounded the Cars feelings
byIshouting Vipe Ia POIOgne !" when the
Russian Emperor went to the Opera in Paris.
1t was rude, certainly, but hardly deserved
the three months Imprisonment which the
poor man got for it. But then, perhaps, an
autocrat is more sensitive than an editor, and
so in the French code of etiquette it may be
far worse to cry Poland" in the hearing OF
Car than to spit in the face of a gentleman.

Despite the Reform bill, it is plain enough
that Parliament has good deal to learn in the
way of common sense and liberality. Two
bills designed to remove the distractions which
confne the highest privileges of the principal
universities to members of the Church of En-
gland have been defeated. One referring to
Oxford and Cambridge passed the House OF
Commons, but was thrown out by the Lords.
The other, applying to Trinity College, Dublin,
failed in the House Of Commons. This seems
rather illogical, but the benefit in the former
case would accrue chiefly to Dissenters, and in
the latter to Roman Catholics. The Commons
did not mind Dssenters, but Catholics were too
intOlerant TO be tolerated.

Kings and Queens are popularity supposed to
be made of kind of clay which knows not
the power of love, and is generally insensible
to the sentimental emotions which have so
much influence over the lives of ordinary
creatures. But the secret history of the love
life of Albert and Victoria, which has just
been published by Her Majesty's command,
shows that, after ALL the Queen of England is
very much as other women are. and with her
marriage at any rate, Cupid had great deal
more to do than Downing street. "The Queen
"sent for me alone 10 her room," Prince Albert
writes to his grandmother, "and declared to

The visit of the French Empress to Queen
Victoria has been made so very quietly that the
gossips suppose it to possess some mysterious
significance. If Eugene had crossed the chan

one of pleasure The possibility of an En-
press ever getting weary Of pOmp and cere-
mony, and travelling quietly just because she
prefers to do so, has apparently not occurred
to ANYBODY

Another Fenian leader, General" Fariola, is
said to have turned informer. Fenianism is
brimfull of absurdity, but it is too sad to be
laughed at. The honorable patriotism of its
objects, the preposterous inadequacy of its
means, and the baseness of so many of its
trusted agents, make mournful contrast. But
the story is an old one. Ireland has been for
generations fighting against artillery with pop
gurs and nOurishing traitors for her own be-
