ENGER SUNDAY OCTOBER H. 49,

One touch worth noticing is the fiction By
which the angel IL detained on earth: that
" the angelo ladders are rays of light It
strikes us as one of the moat ingenious we
have ever met and no less beautiful than
happy. The whole structure Of the narrative,
indeed, is admirable; it is difficult to see how
skill Miss Proctor has in an uncommon degree,
and all her longer narrative poems exemplify 1t.
, or course, such thoughts on life as these
last verses contain blend naturally With noble
thoughts on death. Here, again, Miss Procter's
prevailing thoughtfulness has developed her
ideas into many beautiful applications. The
lines called The Angel of Death" which so
touohingiy close Charles Dickens sketch of
her, the sweet, weary "Tryst with Death"
aud many others, are examples of this. But
among them all there is none which more truly
same time. is more deeply instinct with the
hopefulness that uuderlies all her graver utter
auces, than the admirable lines:
OUR DEAD
just little time they h.d:
One by oLe life robs US of our treasures:
Nothing is our own except our dead.
They ave ours and hold in faithful keeping,
Safe for ever, al they took away
Cruel time can never seize that prey.
Justice pales truth fades, stare fall rom heaven ;
Human are the great whom reverei
Till we place it on a funaral bier
How the children leave us, and no traces
LinGer of that smiling angel band;
Gone, for ever gone and in their places
Weary men and an Xious women stand.
Yet nee hare little ones still ours;
They hare Kept the baby smile: IRE kao,s,
Which ace kisSed day, aud hid cih GoLgcrs,
On their dead ,chitc faces long ago.
When our joy is lost-and life will take it
Then NO memory of the past remains
Save with some strange, cruel sting, to make il
bitterness hey ond all present pains

Her ideas regarding death are very lofty.
They are equally removed from the timorous,
painful harping on dissolution hat character
ICES the ander done poetic organism, from the
graphic grimness of Miss Rossettis class of
thinkers, who seem to take CHASTITY delight
in anatomizing the subject, and last from the
passionate weak welcoming of the end-the
coward courage which dares not live. In a
word, Miss Proctor Christian.

Do not cheat thy heart and tell her
Grief will pass away,
Hope for fairer times in future
And forget to-day.
Tell her, if you will that sorrow
Need not come in vain.
Tell her that the lesson taught her
Far outweighs the pain.
Cheat her not with the old onfort,
"Soon she will forget:"
Bitter truth, alas! but matter
Rather for regret.
Bid her not "Seek othor pleasures,
Turn to other thinRs;"
Rather nurse her Gagged sorrow
Till the captive sings.
Rather bid her 20 forth bravely

Not as foes, with spear and buckler,
But a. dear friends meet;
Bid her with . strong clasp hold her

among the Deputies, When The Assembly
hrst met, the Republicans were few and
poWefIeSS, now they are the majority and
though many have been sent up from outside,
many more have come over to them. The
next election will give them a definite
majority in the Chamber, while the Bona
parlists will not be powerful in tbs tSenate.
Under those circumstances, the Republic must
live. and the reason Of such a victory is the
conciliatory disposition of Republicans, who
have now TO show " that under a Republic laws
are inyiolable, all citizens equal, all careers
open to industry and capacity, and an end
made Of the regime Of courtt zans aud sharpers.''
One wishes, as one reads The speeches of the

Republicans could have a few months of
Office.
The country is by no means satisfied with
the suspension " Of the Admiralty Circular
about Fugitive Slaves. In a meeting held
yesterday week in the Town Hall at Mauohes-
ter, a Conservative ~elector, Mr.. Richard
HawOrth, moved for the immediate withdrawal
of the Circular, and demanded the steady per-
severance in the old policy. The resolution
was passed unanimously, after which another
elector startled the Mayor by moving a resolu-
ton for =" the immediate dismissal of any Minis
ter who is alike so ignorant of his duty to the
country and 50 unfaithful to his Sovereign as to
have issued it," The Mayor declining to put
this to The meeting, the chair was taken by Mr..
S. Watts, who put the motion to the meeting.
when it was carried by acolamation. On the
same evening, a similar resolution was proposed
and carried with great applause in the Birming-
nam Town Hall, Nevertheless, we do not
quite expect any Minister to retire in conse-
quence of this blunder, though the whole
Administration Is the weaker for it. Nothing
shocks the country more than to find its mind
thoroughly misunderstood by a Government It
has triumphantly carried to power.

From the Spectator)

The sultan's partial reputation Of his Debt
has been the chief topic Of the week No
further explanation Of this act has been offered,
and no extenuation youchsafed. The second
half of the interest on the 300, 100000, or
.H6, 600, 900 sterling, is, as We explained, to be
paid in bonds bearing 5 per cent. interest,
issued at par, whereas they are worth only 80
per cent. Of the par value, and the total affair
is, in fact, a composition effected BY violence
at 12s Cd. in the 9I. This might be endura-
BILE if the interest now offered were secure, but,
as we have urged elsewhere, there is nothing
to prevent Constantinople from repeating the
process, and very much to induce it, There
has been much talk during the week of action
by the Bondholders, but they are, of course,
quite powerless, and none of the Gov
ernments are disposed TO interfere. The
Duo Decazes may probably instruct the
French Ambassador to demonstrate against the
reputation Of bonds secured on special taxes,
but as the interest on. the loan of 1855, guar
anteed by England ana Franco, is TO he paid,
the Powers have no locus standl. The khedive
has not as yet followed the example of the
Khalif. but his difficulties are believed to be

The story is probably a canard, built on some

to improve bis finances, but to get money,
which he can do easily by breaking his engage

The Emperor of Germany enters Milan on

A correspondent at Vienna telegraphed on
Wednesday to the Daily Nevs that the Sultan
had offered Mr. Gladstone $4,000 a year to
put the Turkish finances straight. This ru-
mour seems to nave been flashed back to Con-
stantinople, where Mr.. Gladstone was believed
TO hayeitacoepted the offer, and then was re-
ported to Paris, where. of course, any amount
Of details were forthcoming. Mr.. Gladstone
had accepted the offer, bad stipulated for five
yeas certain, had asked for a palace on the
Bosphorous, and had arranged for the dismissal
