Opening of the Hellenic Chambers-CO nstitu.
tion Of the Present Legislative Body-GOod
Things Expected.
ATHENS June 19 correspondence OF she London
Times.
The King. opened the fourth Legislative Chamber
elected during his reign on Thursday, 18th, with
speech, In which he noticed the Two great evils that
trouble his kingdom and weaken his government
brigandage and deprecated paper currency. Leg
slative measures TO suppress the first and loan
put an end to what his Majesty with truth charac-
prosperity Of the country by the second to be
submitted to the Chamber Legislation concerning
Greek leglons OF officials IN all public departments
and the canalization OF the lsthmus of Corinth Is
also TO be introduced by the government.
The first business Of a Greek Chamber is to review
each election and determine its legality before the
House is duly constituted to proceed to business,
and this usually occupies at least TWO months, and
may occupy three. 1t Is needless to enumerate the
objections to this mode Of proceeding. Temporary
circumstances induce the Greeks to follow system
which causes so great a waste OF time. Some delay
and public discussion at the commencement OF each
new Chamber has hitherto been extremely useful
as means OF moderating the factiOus dictatiOn
OF the predominant majority. The constitution
OF 1854, whatever may be Its defects, has worked
well 80 far, for 1t has enabled the Hellenic King
dom to resist the shock Of four general elec-
TONS OF single Legislative House by universal

The present Chamber is said to represent public
opinion more fairly, and to be independent OF
party feeling, than any representative Chamber that
has been elected since Greece became consttu-
tional monarchy by the revolution OF 1Si3 with the
sole exception Of the National Assembly OF 1862 The
government OF Mr.. Zaines has abstained from all in

The Orange Riots IN POrtadown

The English journals OF the Sd inst. contain the
following particulars of the late disgracefu proceed
ngs OF the Orangemen at Portadown on the night OF
the I'd inst
Intelligence has just arrived Of q most serious and
disastrous riot that occurred at PortadOwn on Fri
DAY night. The cause Of the ARRAY has not as yet
been accurately ascerained but the riot Is supposed
to have originated In q few unarmed policemen hay
ing eXtingushed bonfire that had been lighted by
some children OF Quarrys Turns This proceeding
appears to have exasperated the Orangemen, who
suddenly mustered IN strong force and commenced
an organized attack on the police, who in the mean
while had been reinforced by few of their CON-
by the rioters, and the police soon turned
and fed, hotly pursued by their assallants.
The police, on reaching their quarters, oD
tanned their rifles, armed with which eight of
them paraded That part OF Bridge street situated In
Edenberry. They were again attacked and pelted
with stones by an immense crowd OF between two
and three thousand people. At first the
police contented themselves with firing in
the air, upon which cry was raised to
they had only blank cartridges. Emboldened by
this the mob then renewed their attacks on
stabulary and pursued&he men far as the bridge,
stones rafting like hail on them. On reaching the
bridge the police turned and fired again, this time
with fatal euect-a boy ia the employment OF the
Ulster Railway Company, named Thomas Watson,
a Protestant, being shot through the lungs and
killed, and a man named Tiffney, Roman Catholic,
dangerously wounded by shot ia the shoulder.

was quite unexpected, but the Orangemen are so
exasperated that II Is feared that further riots will
follow.

Prussia and the EcumenicnI Council.

Prussia and the Ecumenical Council.
Berlin June 800 correspondence London Daily
News.
The Prussian government mas had tho credit OF
being particularly friendly terms with the Pope
for some time past; but this feeling Will certainly
not prevent Its resisting the resolutions Of the Ecu
menlcal Council In case they should be OF such O
character AZ Is generally expected. Prussia has tar
too large Catholic population to allow Of her
remaining an indifferent spectator should the Coun
Gil attempt 10 tamper with the relations between
q Protestant sovereign ana his Catholic subjects
The ssmkohlcal North GarDtGn Gazette has a short
paragraph which clearly points In this direction.
IL commences with observing that the reason
alleged by several governments for declining the
Bavarlan proposition for some joint action against
the resolutions OF the Ecumenical Council was
the uncertainty what these resolutions would be,
and the imp0ssibility OF choosing their measures
beforehand. According to the French papers IL
was Count Beust, more especially who raised THIS
Austrian Minister at Munich. On this the North
German Gdzette remarks that the objection would
be plausible If there was not already sufficient EVIL
dence as TO what the character OF the Council and
the nature OF Its resolutions would DE, but that the
compassionate the subcommittee, VINO VIII prepare
the programme of the proceedings, leaves no doubt
on this point. All the leading members OF these
committees are the most decided and jealous partl-
sans OF ultramOntanisn, so much so as completely
to confirm the opinion that the great object OF the
Council will be TO give additional strength to that
power. Under these circumstances it is impossible
to blame the various governments If they already
commence their preparations for resisting any such
encroachments on the part OF che Catholic Cnurch;
indeed their adopting such attitude may prevent
the expected conflict
