The EnrlI.h labor troubles.

Lord Derby, in recent speech at Roch-
dale, intimated that the English people
were packed too close in England, and
that emigration was the safety-valvc
which would in good time relieve the dis
tresses occasioned by redundant popula-
ton. The Welsh miners agree in opln-
ion with his lordship. They have given a
a very practical demonstration OF the thor
oughness OF their belief that, at least,
there are too many minersi in Great Brit
ain, by offering $}5 to every member Of
the Miners Union who will go to Ameri'
ca, and SO to every one who will betake
himself to Australia. This action betokens
a thorough understanding Of the trouble
that has overtaken the industrial inter
ests Of England. There are more men to
work than there is work TODD. Tho rem,
edy lies between choice Of two evils;
either to accept lower wages for the whole,
or to send part out OF the country.

A TheoIoglenI TurnuIt.

A war has broken out in Petersburgh;
Virginia Bishop Keane, Of Richmond,
delivered a lecture there last week on
1.-THE Church and Human Nature
Among the auditors were the better order
of Protestants in the place, and upon the
platform the Protestant clergy occupied
seats As the lecture proceeded It is
charged that John Calvin received any
thing but complimentary reference, and
Professionalism was presented to its follow
ers in doubtful coIors. OF course, glove
so thrown down did not lie untouched
0nSunday night the Episcopal minister
delivered himself Of remarks based upon
the lecture, and a Presbyterian divine,
who bears the illustrious name OF Wither-
spoon, defended Calvin, and prounced the
lecture "a cunning SELL" The pastor Of
the Baptist Church is what in strictly re-
ligious phrase, is known as a reformed
Catholic. lie proposes to tell how he be-
came a Protestant. The priest OF the
Catholic church also threatens to talk,
and the lay brethren, one and all, and the
lay sisters arc talking. The town Is invad.
cd and overrun with theology. Never,
sincethe exploding mine Of the Federal
troops opened the way into its long
belcaguered precints; has there been such
dust kicked up as by this thoughtless
Bishop.

The condemnation suit OF the p W.

County Court, Saturday. Walter {.
smith, the Civilengjneer, who was on the
stand atthe time adjournment on Fri
dav evening, resumed it at the reopen
ing Of court, and his examination con-
sumed nearly the entire forenoon SEES
sion. Ii went into the mlnutlT OF the
plat made bv him from actual surveys,
and is not OF public interest, or intelll-
gible without a reproduction OF the map.
The same may be said of the teStlmO-
nv of the other witnesses examined,
who were consulting Engineer W. y.
Boiling. Arthur SinSel, Master of Road,
G.. W. WhiteSCarver, Assistant Road
master. and Second Nice-PreSident Key
ser, Of the Il. * q. road.
Mr.. KeySer testified IN regard TO the
interview with President Hubbard and
Chief Engineer Becker, of the T., W. y
Nv. Company, substantially Is already
published. The other witnesses mar
rated the occurrences ut the time OF the
difficulty between the two roads, and
between the b. x q. road and the city.
The same line OF action was followed by
the defendants, and so far they have
made, in the opinion OF spectators with
whom we have converSed, a strong case
in opposition to the claims OF the plain
tiff in the case.
The testimony will last at least all day
to day, and may continue yet some
DAYS, after which elaborate and ex-
haustive arguments will be made by
counsel for both sides.
