After this the men seem to have decamp-

In has been discovered that some time
on Monday night last a most daring and
determined attempt was made to rob
the church Of ST. Peter, C0rnhill. The
Church is one Of the Oldest III England
and possesses many valuable and trea,
sured relics OF the past. BY tradition its
original prototype was founded III the year
108, and there is q curious ancient NUM-
ment in the veStry bearing an inscription
to that effect. The communion plate is
known as at once the most vaIuableand curl
Gus in the country. Among others is a
spoon Of pure gold, the bowl Of which is
drilled and has many small holes, and is
said to have been used by the officiating
~clergymen in times gone by to remove flies
or other insects which obtrude into the
cOnSecrated wine during the administra-
ton of the Communion. Among other
treasures is a manuscript Bible, beautiful
ly illuminated at certain pages. All these
treasures are shown in the church on great
festivals, such as Christmas Day, Easter
Day, and so forth, and it was no doubt in
the hope of capturing the whole or some Of
these articles that the attempt was made.
First the burglars must have climbed the
railings of the ch%urchyaTd Of st. Peters
alley, ana thus got upon an clubhouse.
Here they commenced operations upon the
roof, and made a hole large enough for a
good-sized man to get through. They did
not, however, succeed in gaining entrance
to the vestry where the coveted goods were
supposed to be, forthey were stopped by an
old iron door, which seems to nave dt fed
all their efforts. From the traces left here
there must have been eat least four, if not
more, men engaged in the work. They
next made a second opening, this time in
the norther corner of the roof of the vestry.
Here their search was still fruitless, it
being the custom to remove the relics to a
place of safety Immediately after the SER
vice has concluded. The strong room on

The fall of the Ferry Cabinet
had, however, two causes. The Tu-
nisian expedition settled It's fate, but
the instinct of France and the occur
renee # the elections decided it.
NJ. Ferry, unable to save his Cabinet,
sought at last to save his own poll
teal existence He would have sue
ceedpd, in spi e even OF NJ. Gambetta,
if the antipathy of France for the
Tuuisian expedition had not enabled
NJ. Gambetta to exclude him without
exposing himself TO the opposition of
a serious antagonist in the fallen
Minister. Apart from the Tunisian
expedition aud general elections, the
natural instinct of the nation, which
demanded the accession of NJ. Gam
bettta, made the fall of NJ Ferry
imperative. A more singular thing
than those elections has seldom been
seen. They were presided oyer by
a Cabinet which fancied it had done
everything to secure the benefit Of
them. They were oStentatiouSly di-
rected BY the Prime Minister, who
strove in his various speeches not
to lead public opinion, but to divine
and follow the opinion of his pre-
sumptiye successor. They resulted
in a gain TO him OF the so new Re-
publican seats he hid predicted, and
stran4 to say. as soon as the cleo
lions were over, the first conclusion
the President, Parliament, and Eu-
rope drew from them was that NJ,
Ferry ought to retire and NJ. Gam
BETA to succeed him. This v@s the
result-Gr>t, of the Tuuisian expedi-
ton, for Will France held the Ca
hinet responsible and, next, of the
instructive feeling Of the country,
Which saw the necessity of placing
the outward signs Of power and res
possibility in the hands of NJ. GAM
b2tt}, WING had bern welding power
without responsibility and had been
able % unset.l" the country when she
liked without having to answer for
his acts. The accession OF NJ. Gam
BETA resulted from all these causes.
1t is the eliminating point of current
French politics. In the first place.
il must be admitted that the new
Cabinet was a source of surprise,
ray, even of disappointment, not, as
some are pleased to assert that it was
insignificant compared with that
which had been promised, but be-
cause in the eyes Of those we'll in
formed it was a confirmation Of the
~imprudent and naughty policy which,
it was feared, VI. Gambetta would
adopt. In the first place, people
were surprised that, although he had
known long beforehand that his turn
was about to come, he had not pre-
pared all his reforms, SO as to appear
fully armed before the eyes of the
nation and carry it at once out OF the
eneryating period of cropping its way
so to speak, into that of a resolute
and well-weighedpolicy such as alone
can lead to results worthy Of u great
people. But, SO far from this, no.
Thing wa prepared, and every event,
however easily il might have been
foteseen, is only slowly and labori-
ousIy grappIed with, just as if it had
taken thn Government by surprise.
