~, expected that the Right Rev. Bishop of
Mlry land would have been present at the
con,crralIon Of Rev. T. L. Dudley rs Assist
ant Bishop OF the Diocese OF Kentucky,
which takes place TO morrow, but it is under
stood that Bishop Nottingham, whilst en-
:cruniug The most friendly regard for Rev.
Mr.. Dudley, has felt himself, much to his
regret. constrained 10 withhold bis assent to
TIE cons Grafton of the Bishop-elect, and will,
therefore. not be present. The reason for
this objection is said 10 be the fact that the
Rev. Mr.. Dudley has been twice married.
which circumstance. in the judgment Of
Bishop Wbluingham, renders the former
ineligible to the office Of Bishop. st. Paul,
in ht> First Episllc to Timothy, enjoins that
q Bishop must be blamelcss, the husband
of one wife" and il is claimed that the prac-
tee OF the early Church was in accordance
With the view that a Bishop should not mar
rs the second time; and further, that an an
cent canon prohibited preSbyters who have
been married second time from being elc-
waited TO the Eplscopatc. 1t Is said that

there was unfairr1ess In the election Of The
Speaker. 1t was thing which happened be-
| fore, which will happen again. and for
| which, like any other fault or folly. there Is
no remedy beyond an appeal to public opin.
ion. If It had proved impossible to elect a
Speaker, owing to the unnecessary turin.
lence or absence Of members, 1t would have
been state Of things, however discredit-
able, which has been witnessed In the Fede-
raj House Of Representatives and In the
General Court of Massachusetts, for days and
weeks together. If persons not qualified
voted In the organization it was to the
House itself, after the organization, that
complaint should baYe been made. The
"petition addressed by the Radical members
to Kellogg was an<absurd and ridiculous
document, which that person had no more
right to entertain or act on than the writer OF
these lines. No Governor or President has
right TO have hand, act, or part in the or
ganization of any legislative body, or in con.
trolling or directing its proceedings. It's:
notamenable to him 10 any manner or form.
II any one portion OF o legislative body finds
itself oppressed or outraged by another it
must, under the immemorial usage Of civil
lied constitutional States, appeal to the
honor, patriotism, and sense Of justice Of its
opponents; and if this fails if right and
justice are sacrificed to porty-there is,
as Cushing finely says, "no alternative
but to appeal to that tribunal which revises
the decisions of all others-the tribunal OF
the future, eternally and everywhere sitting
in Judgment on the past, whose judges are
the people, and whose judgments are record
ed in public opinion" This is no rhetori-
cal dctum or bit Of sent!mentaist yapor. 1t
is a doctrine which lies at the very founda-
tons of free government; for if the Legisla-
ture is not independent or irresponsible the
Executive is or may quickly become des-
potism. When Kellogg, therefore, pre-
sumed to act on the Radical petition, and
called in the aid of the troops to enable him
to CT cree the majority OF the mem bers of the
House, whether that majority was real or os.
tensible, he committed high crime and mis-
deneanor, for which he ought to be punish
ed. The notion which General Sheridan
seems to entertain that the Governors de-
mand for Federal troops justified General De
Trobriand's action in the House may be put
in the same Category with the notion that
American citizens can be outIawed by Exc
cutiye proclamation.

Royal Society is to the scieRtl6c world. On
Thursday evening, attracted by the rumor
that Loekyer would make some important
astronomical statement, / repaired thitter,

up chiefly Of the extreme Left. Professor
Huxley, as secretary, read out the names OF
two gentlemen submitted as candidates for
the position of Yellowstone of them, John
William Mallett, formerly of the University
of Virginia, but now British subject-and
all their titles and works, and also long list
of names supporting each before his name
could pass to the limbo of being hung on the
walls; and BE {Huxley) handled this mass of
red tape much as he sometimes does curl.

much over thirty, with handsome face, q

ability in making complex things clear even

traordinary powers were exhibited in ain un-
usual way. 1t was expected that his paper
about the sun would be read, and it was read.
it was very interesting, but not reportable
here. But afterWard paper was read from an
other able astronomer, DR.. Higgins, on some
features of Co@gia's comet, which lately ap-
peared. When this latter paper had been read
DR.. Hooker, from the chair, asked Lockyer If
he would comment upon it; whereupon the.
young astronomer arose aHd-thus inciden-
tally called-he!d the assembly spell.bouud
for twenty minutes, while he related bis own
discoveries mot yet given to the world, the
accompanying plates not being ready con.
,,erning this comet. 1t was disclosed that
night after night while that comet was with
in sight he had been on his Watchtower at
Gateshead, using the most powerful tele-
scope in this country; that he had mapped
its march and photographed its every phase;
that he had resolved the gothic tracery In
its fan.shaped nucleus into millions of
shooting meteors; and that he had expert.
mented on the large number of meteorites in
the British Museum meteoriteS that have
fallen in every part Of Europe-and found
that when heated up to a certain point their
spectroscopic signs were exactly those of the
comet. But one other striking thing he had
found : though at moderate heat the spec
trum of the meteorite is that of the comet,
when the meteorte is heated TO the highest
degree its conformity to the comet-spectrum
disappears, and its spectrum becomes iden-
teal with that of nebula. We thus find
that Mr.. Norman Lockyer has for some time
been seated in the British Museum reading
letters from nebule and comets.-M. D.
