ABBEY.-This stone is under the Coronation
Chair in the Abbey. It's history is mysterious,
and, so far as the history of a stone can be SO
called. quite romantic; and it has not only at
tracted the notice, but has puzzled and ballcd
antiquarians for some ages past. 1t is said to
be the stone that Jacob used pillow, and
it may be- for who can deny it? Automatically
it is known to have been brought.to Ireland at
an early period after the deluge and that it
remained in that country for many ages, until
taken to Scotland for the coronation of king
of Irish descent, and after some hundreds of
years it was fiually removed to its present To-
caity, whore it is likely to remain until the
artist from New Zealand comes to sketch the
ruins of st. Paul's, London, rs foTctold by
Macaulay The peculiar quality attributed to
this stone is, that if any but the true prince
sat ON it to be crowned it would become an
mated, and create such would. at
once expose the imposition. 1t is said to have
done several times in Ireland and Scotland
but that it has been very quiet in England.
The name of this stone in the Irish language is
pronounced "Lhia Fhail," which the learned
translate the "Stone of Destiny"-Northerh
Press.

Madrid, June 6.-Direct taxes in the

London, June 6, 1869-A meeting of
conservative peers was held yesterday to
determine what course should he pursued
in regard to the bill for the disestabIish-
ment of the Irish Church.
Lord Cairns urged that opposition be
made to the bill on its second reading,
and that it be finally rejected. He Said
the leaders of the party did not wish to
dictate, and were anxious that the judg-
ment of each peer should remain unfet-
tered. He felt that, as the country had
never pronounced on the present bill, and
us the feeling of the House of Lords was
so opposed to il, the most polite, couSis-
tent and best course to pursue under the
circumstances would he to repudiate the
measure.
Lord Salisbury deprecated the. course
recommended BY Lord Cairns. The agi-
tation which would follow the rejection
Of the bill would be most disastrous to
the country, and would do nothing to save
the Irish Church. 1t would be better to
accept the bill and modify it in committee
than to renew i'll feeling and excitement.
Lord Carnaevon supported the recon-
mendations of Lord Salisbury. He urged
the Chamber Of Peers, now that it was
able, to make terms for the Irish Church.
They might not have an opportunity
hereafter.

Timers and Shee, and between NJ. M.
Favre and Henri Rochefort, are regarded
with much interest. The Emperor, it is
asserted, views the probable election Of
M. Rochefort as a personal if not a deadly
insult. The ultimate results of the cleo
lions and their effect on the government
are regarded with great curiosity. The
government is fully alive to the heaviness
'of the blow and the difficulties it will
have to meet in the future. Its friends
tender advice freely but the only con-
cession possible is a parliamentary gov
eminent, which the Emperor regards
with particular aversion. The govern
ment is inclined to do something as soon
as possible, and with the least inconveni-
ence. If the baIloting results in favor of
Rochefort, the step will probably be
taken Immediately.
