tngs, and even in private intercourse are employed
in denunciation OF tho title.
THE LInERALs YIELDING.
The liberal press recognizes the hopelessness OF
maintaining further resistance, however, and is
yielding, like Mrs. Partngton, to the overwhelming
superiority OF the ocean.
TORY CONTEMPLATION.
Mr.. Disraeii's friends evidently believe he has
achieved great victory in securing Her Majesty's
immediate assent to his Oriental programme, for
the royal signature to this bill Is interpreted by
many as evidence Of the acceptance OF the Prem

OPENING OF THE ROYAL ACADEMY.
The prominent event Of the week was the private
opening OF the Royal Academy. The works ex-
hibited present no striking feature and are more
mediocre than usual. The public opening Is an
nounced for Monday, when we shall doubtless be
treated to columns Of fulsome criticism according to
the rule Of every previous season

up for the British workingman.

favored giving the franchise to females much TO the
disgust OF his brother Jacob, who was an advanced
supporter Of the theories Of Mill.
