FLINTSHIRE ASSIZES. The business of these Assizes was transacted on Friday, July 20, before Lord Chief Baron Kelly. In addressing the Grand Jury, of which the Hon. G. T. Kenyon was foreman his Lordship said he was exceedingly happy to be able to congratulate tliem upon the state of the calendar. Considering they belonged to a county which, though not the largest in her Majesty's dominions, was a populous and he was glad to add a prosperous one, the state of the calen- dar was a legitimate subiect for congratulation. There were only three prisoners for trial. One would require their earnest attention, seeing it was most horrible in its nature; and seeing it entirely rested on the evidence of one witness, who possibly might be mistaken, he earnestly recommended the Grand Jury to throw out the bill. The other cases were such as from their experience as magistrates would require no notice from him. The Grand Jury then retired, and notwithstanding the recom- mendation of his lordship brought in a true bill on the case in question. ROBBERY AT LUFIJI.I.T. Joseph Von, aged 24, pleaded guilty to stealing two sovereigns, antI other moneys, from George Booth, at Bagillt, on the 3rt! July also to stealing a watch, the property of Thomas Moran, at the same time and place.—He was sentenced to four months' imprisonment. HIGHWAY ROJHIERY AT HOI.YWF.IX. Samuel Williams, aged 25, a labourer, pleaded guilty to steal- ing Mis. from Evan Jarvis. at Holywell, on the 15th of June. He also pleaded guilty to inflicting greivous bodily harm on the said Evan Jarvis when he ifttempted to recover his property.— The prisoner was sentenced to five years' penal servitude, and a further term of five years' police supervision. ision. UNNATURAL CHIME. William Lamb, aged 17, was indicted for an unnatural offence. —Mr. Burke prosecuted, and Mr. Higgins defended.- -In charg- ing the jury, his lordship said it would have been better for the prisoner—were be found guilty—that the law should have been unaltered, for then he would have been sentenced to be hung, whereas now, if found guilty, he would be condemned to a life of degradation, misery; and shame. 'Hic judge was often and visibly affected, and the jury immediately returned a verdict of not guilty, in which he said he entirely concurred. This finished the business, the Court having sat less than two hours.

The hoys or the Indefatigable had their annual trip to Beau- maris oil Friday, Jul-, 20. „ The Anglesey Baptist Association commenced its quarterly session at Llaiierchyuiedil on Thursday, July 19. The Duke of Westminster paid a visit last week to St. V. ini- fred's Hospital, Rhyl. The lthyl church choirs took a trip to Llangollen on Thursday, July In, and it is said to have proved pleasant and successful in every wav. Nearly a thousand tickets were issued. On Saturday, Julv 21, the fourth annual athletic festival of the employes of the Cheshire Lines was held in a tield close to the Hough Green stttioii The fourth excursion this season of the Chester Society of Natural Science took place on Wednesday, July 1?. Heswall was the place visited/ For two months the county of Chester has bean free from cattle diseases, hut two animal# have now been found .suffering from foot-and-mouth disease at Frodsham. A short memoir of the late Rev. J. A. Jackson, M. A., diocesan inspector of schools for the diocese of St. Asaph, has just been published by the Rev. William Hughes, of Chester. Mr. Cartwriglit, the manager of the Denbigh, Ruthin, and Corwen Railwav, has accepted the appointment of manager to the Wrexham, Mold, and Connah's Quay line. Upon appeal the judges have decided against the claim of Col. Dawkins to be entitled to a share in the castle and estates of the Pennant family in Carnarvonshire, of which Lord Penrhyn i.j the present head. The ceremony of inaugurating the Cunutoc Lodge of Free- masons, Khyl, will take place on the :ird of August. It is expected that Sir Watkin Williams Wynn, W.G.M., will preside at the banquet. At a public meeting recently held at Llansannan National School, Mr., Mrs., and Miss Robertson, late of J'enycoed, Llan- sannan, were presented with a purse of money .and a handsome gold watch. On Wednesday, July 18, a man named Alfred Barston, of Cardiff, who had been drinking hard and using violence towards his wife, went down to the dock, deliberately walked into the water, and, refusing all assistance, was drowned in the sight of his daughter, who had followed him. As some labourers were the foundation for a Calvinis- tic Methodist chapel at Yspytty Ystwyth when about seventeen feet from the surface they came upon a doctor s mortar of granite stone which is supposed to have belonged to the hospital (for which the Welsh word is "Yspytty ) that nourished in this place it. the time of Henry VIII. The mortar has since been presented to the University College Museum. J. The Lord Mayor of London will be tile guest, of the Mayor of Swansea on Thursday. Aug. 2. at a grand banquet to be given in that town. After visaing Mr. Vivian M.P., the Lord Mayor will distribute the Mansion House fund rewards to the rescued Welsh miners and their rescuers, at Pontypridd, on the 4tli of ^Oi"Wednesday, July 18, the race for the captaincy and sub- captaincy of the Chester Bicycle Club t^ok place. The course was from Hampton Heath toll gate, near Malpas, to Christioton toll gate, near Chester, a distance of twelve miles. At the finish Mr. A. P. Skipworth passed the winning post, closely followed by Mr. A. Morris, the time being forty-seven minutes. The Baronet of Acton Reynald" is evidenly not only a firm believer in the temporal as well as eternal punishment of the wicked, but is also equally confident that Providence is on the side of the fox preservers, for at a dinner at Shawbury the other day, to celebrate the coming of age of his son, Sir Vincent Corbet expressed his solemn conviction that no man who killed foxes ever did well." Amongst the poetical effusions of village poet laureates, sug- gested by the coming of age of Air. W. O. Corbet, of Acton Hey- aald, was the following, which was printed, we are told in" con- spicuous type upo* very yellow paper"— We have lived to hear your Birthday bells, The sound our heart's last hope dispels (sic), May you be, from sorrow free, When these sweet Bells shall toll for we. An order was recently made by the Lord Chancellor directing the appointment of a second registrar of Bangor court to act iointly with Mr. Henry Lloyd Jones, the present registrar. Mr. Horatio Lloyd, the judge, has accordingly appointed Mr. John Glynne Jones, solicitor. of Bangor (a son of Mr. Lloyd Jones), to fill the vacant office. Bangor court is a district registry of the High Court of Justice, and has an extensive jurisdiction in bank- ruptcy and admiralty, in addition to its common law and equity business. A correspondent of Truth writes I thank you for your re- marks oil sea-bathing, and you will be pleased to loarn that at Barmouth, North Wales, bathing is practised as in France. My daughters were delighted to have me with them to teach them to swim, and I feel assured that swimming will never become general amongst the gentler sex till the Continental fashion is adopted." At the Denbighshire Assizes last week, the Lord Chief Baron expressed the opinion that the want of acquaintance with the English language shown by witnesses in the Welsh courts does not say much for educational progress in the Principality. At these assizes witness after witmcss ap]Jl.:trd:1 in the box who required the services of an interpreter, and several of them were boys of from sixteen to eighteen years of age. It is to be regretted that although School Boards have been formed nearly all over Wales, their powers of compelling attendance at school are very tardily and imperfectly exercised, and in many instances are not exercised at all. At a, recent meeting of the Nantwich Local Board a return was presented, from which it appeared that there were 226 children in tlie town whose education was neglected. In each case the parents 0(1 to the labouring class, and many of them pleaded extreme poverty and badness of trade" as an excr.se for their neglect. This is an invalid plea, inasmuch as the Guardians are empowered tq pay the school fees in cases where the parents are unable to do sti. It is doubted whether the amount of school accommodation at Nantwicli is sufficient to justify the Board in exercising their powers of compulsion. The Dean of Chester has informed the subscribers to the re- storation of Chester Cathedral that, in consequence of a serious failure of health, caused he is told by overwork, it had been absolutely impossible for him hitherto to prepare an accurate and ;cjniplete report for isrti, and that he is precluded by the same cause from attempting to collect the amount of money required for the cost of some parts of the finished work, and for the replacing of mural monuments on a plan approved by the architect. It is of great consequence that €2,000 should be contributed during the present year, and he will be verv grateful for any subscriptions that may be sent to the "Deanery, Chester. Two sums of £ 100 and two sums of £ 50 have been promised, on condition that £1,080 at least are ob- tained. „ At the general quarter sessions of the city of Chester, on Thursday, July 19, the Recorder congratulated the zran(I jury upon a sensible and substantial diminution of crime, both for lesser and for more serious offences, during the past, quarter, as compared with the average of the last four years. The number of prisoners for trial at these sessions had dwindled down ÜOIII about a dozen, when he first took office, to four or five. He ascribed that decrease to the fact that the old offenders were dying out, and the recruits—thanks to industrial schools—were not so numerous as the veterans. Industrial schools were not doing all the good they could, for want of funds, and he hoped each in his sphere would assist in aiding these schools. There were four prisoners for trial, one of whom was acquitted. Captain Charles Pearson, chief constable of Carnarvonshire, in giving evidence before the Lords' Committee on intemperance, attributed the diminished number of convictions of publicans to the fact of men going from one house to another, which rendered it difficult to find out which publican supplied the drink. This arose from the difference in the hours of closing between one place and another. We confess we are not convinced of the .soundness of this ingenious hypothesis. If a drunken man gets all his drink at one particular house, he is not likely to go from one house to another,' in search of it, and any publican" who sup- plies him with drink after he is intoxicated is, of course,liable to be proceeded against equally with the publican at whose house lie became so. Captain Pearson stated that there had been a con- siderable increase sh-ve I860 of persons proceeded against for drunkenness, notwithstanding the very considerable prevalence of teetotalisni amongst the qtiarryinou of Carnarvonshire. He aid not think that the grocers' licences did any harm at all. At the Holywell County Court on Monday, July 10, Mr- Louis, Ruthin, applied in an equity suit brought by Reuben Hugh'es and others against Robert Jones, of Rhewl Fawr, that thesum of £ 70 should be paid into court upon a bond deposited with the Resisti-ar. The case arose out of a marriaae settle- ment executed between the defendant and his late wife, and at the time defendant was in prison upon a serious charge con- nected with his wife's death, the bond in question was given by Mr W. Davies, his then solicitor, to enable defendant to dis- pose of some of the property to provide for his defence. It was stated that the defendant was now penniless, and so the bond would have to be met by Mr. Davies, although he had ceased to be the defendant's solicitor. Mr. Cartwright, Chester, applied on behalf of Robert Jones for a new trial in the equity suit, and after a long argument his Honour refused the application, and adjourned the motion on the bond in order to see whether an amicable arrangement could be effected. The following is from the Athenceum An able and popular landscape painter, Mr. J. S. Raven, who had been lately stay- ing at Harlech, was drowned while bathing on Friday in last week. It appears that he had been painting from a tent on the sands, and that he left this place to swim. It is certain that when Mrs. Raven reached the tent with the unfortunate artist's lunch she found it empty, his clothes there, and met some fishermen bringing his lifeless body to the shore. Mr. Raven was 49 years of age and leaves a widow and one son. His pictures "rarely had the places at the Royal Academy Exhibition which his friends do not hesitate to claim for them Wh.1t have been alleged to be his best works were rejected, and others of unequal merit obtaine-l inferior places on the walls at Trafalgar- souare and Burlington-gardens. He was a very frequent ex- hibitor since 1849 at the Academy, British Institution, and else- where, and resided for a considerable time at St. Leonards, where he was well known and much esteemed, at Chelsea, and latterly at Bayswater. A large picture of moonlight, now be- longing to Mr. Newall. of Gateshead, is one of his best works; another, stvled The Shadow of Snowdon. exhibit. a grand idea—the shadow of the inou-iitt;n, not Snowdon itself, is seen lying athwart another hill, which is tinged ^i*li sunset light. "We retain very fresh impressions of a landscape, I he Hea vens declare the Glory of God," which was at the Academy in 18/.>, w'ith others. The Athoui'tnn in reviewing "Lectures on Welsli Pliiloloy by Mr. John M.A., Celtic Professor at Oxford, says "These lectures can be confidently recommended not only to all students of Welsh philology, but to all who take an intelli- gent interest in Celtic studies in general. They contain much valuable information and instruction on the several topics treated of, and will tend to put an end to many delusions hitherto existing in several quarters as regards everything Celtic. The work is the production of a scholar well prepared for the task he has undertaken, and is appropriately dedicated to Prof. Max Miiller and Mr. Whitley Stokes, masters in the Science of Language, of whom the author has shown himself to be no un- worthy disciple. He has made good use of their writings, as well as of the most important publications on comparative phil- ology which have appeared for several years past, at home and abroad. -Mr- Rhys s contributions to the liem>e Celtiqve and to lvuhn and Schleicher s heit.ragfevinced a true philological spirit. V io, « of those periodicals to e^„ v, anu {ell rt:'jlU'V'> the same direction-—an expectation'which the lectures before us prove to have been well founded. The plan of the work is good, and in calmness of tone anu closeness of reasoning, it contrasts favourably with some pretentious works on Celtic matters re- cently put forth by wen of imi^i learning and great enthusiasm, but who. unfortunately, had ncrt the a«<\ antage of a sound glotto- logical training."

PROM THE PAPERS. "I"r. "J' -r- "} The falling off in the number of visitors to Ivcw Gardens for the year 1STC, as compared with ISTu, was SO,000. At JjlllICa,ter, 011 Saturday, July :2], the Rev. C. W. ;,Iainwar- ing, rector of Staintor:, was fined 14s. (> for beating a lad with a hay-fork bee; e he was ill-using a horse. Sir Column O'Loghlen. Bart., member for Clare, died on Snn- day, July 22, on board the Holyhead mail boat going to Dublin. He had recently been in ill-health. The Marquis of Hartington and Mr. Forster were the princi- pal speakers at the dinner of the Cobden Club at Greenwich on Saturday night, July 21. In the case of the man Lacey, foifnd guilty at the Dorset Assises of starving his wife, it was shown that the prisoner's wife was fed on bread and water while a lurcher dog was fed on mutton. Considerable excitement has been occasioned in Portsmouth and at Aldershot by the preparations being made for the des- patch of troopships from England, and the orders given to certain battalions to hold themselves in leadiness for foreign service. On Wednesday, July 18, an inquest was held in the village of Aber upon the body of a child three years old, son of Thomas Thomas, which was found in the river (,n Monday by a gentle- man who was fishing. A verdict of "Accidentally drowned" was returned. At Herts Assizes, on Friday, July 20, Paul Bayart was called to answer the charge of inciting Arthur William Dickens to murder his (Bayart's) father and" mother at Roubaix, France. Defendant did not appear. His bail was consequently estreated, prosecutor's recognizances enlarged, and the costs of the prose- cution allowed. Some 10,000 hoys in the schools of the London School Board were publicly drilled and inspected in Regent's Park on Thurs- day, July 10, by Sir C. Reed, who presented a challenge banner, the gift of the Society of Arts, to the Kcnder-street School, Hatcham, as the sign of its superiority to the others in the movements. The same school WOII the banner last year. School boys can be as high and mighty as their fathers. Recently tlic boys in a very well-known Dissenting school in the north of London sent a challenge to Harrow to play a cricket match. The answer sent by the Harrovians was short, but scarcely sweet-" Eton we know, and Winchester we know; but who are ye Saturday, July 21, was the closing day of this year's meeting at Wimbledon, the prizes being delivered by the Duke of Cam- bridge, who gave an especially warm greeting to Jamieson, the winner of the (ueen's prize. A series of athletic sports con- cluded the proceedings. At a crowded meeting held in Exeter Hall, London, on Fri- day night, July :20, to protest against the introduction of the confessional into the Church of England, resolutions were passed condemning auricular confession as subversive of morality, social order, and civil and religious liberty, and an address to the Queen on the subject was adopted. The subscription for the memorial to the late Admiral Rous will close on the 1st of November. The intention of the com- mittee is, if possible, to erect and endow an institution at New- market. which shall bear the name of Admiral Rous, and shall be devoted to the relief of distressed jockeys, trainers, or per- sons in their employment, or their W;(IOWS, The privately-printed small folio volume entitled Collections concerning the Manor of Marden," by the Right Hon. Thomas Earl Coningsbv (1722), was on Friday sold by Messrs. Puttick and Simpson, of Leicester-square, London, for the large sum of £ 340. The same copy produced at Bindley's sale £ 24 3s., and was sold in 1851 for as littletstl 2. The return ordered by the House of Commons of the names of the members returned to serve in each Parliament from 1600 to 1876, with the names of the places for which they were returned, has been prepared in the Public Record Office. The work occu pied 2,787 hours. Advantage was taken of the opportunity to compile lists of Representative Peers for Scotland and for Ireland since the Unions, and these two lists are published in the Public Record Office Reports for 1877. The House of Com- mons list, of course, goes to that House before publication under its direction. On Monday, July 23, as the Scotch Express was nearing Bed- ford, a man being conveyed to London by the Sheriffs Officer under a warrant from the Mayor of Glasgow, took out a razor from his pocket and attempted to murder the officer by aiming a blow at his throat. The officer avoided the blow and tried to take the razor from his antagonist, who, finding his efforts i foiled, drew the razor across his own throat, cutting a tre- mendous gash, and nearly severing his head from his body. The charge against Lady Diana Ball, widow of the late Sir William Keith Ball, Bart., of having stolen the pawn-ticket of a gold watch and diamond ring belonging to Mr. Henry Hawthorne, who married her niece, was fully investigated before the magistrates at Alcester on Monday, July 23. The magistrates, in dismissing the charge, told Lady Ball that she left the Court with the utmost innocence, and without the slightest stain upon her character. The announcement of the result was received with loud applause from a crowded court. The twenty feet lifeboat from New Bedford, America, with a man and a woman on board, arrived in Mount's Ba), West Corn- wall, on Saturday night, July 23. They were much wearied, and the man's left hand was useless from protracted steering. The voyage lasted forty-nine days, fifteen of which the craft was hove to. In the worst of three gales which were encountered, they lost some of their clothing; and the woman was so ex- hansted that for the last three "days of the journey she was unable to assist her husband. Both voyagers will proceed to Ioll(I()IJ. The return to Liverpool on Monday, July 23, of Jamieson, the winner of the Queen's Prize, was made the occasion of a great demonstration. An immense concourse assembled in front of St. Georges Hall, where the 1.1th L.R.V., of which corps Jamieson is a member, was drawn up and so soon as the champion shot emerged from the railway station he was greeted with long-continued cheering, the band playing See the Conquering Hero." Jamieson was afterwards escorted to the headquarters of the corps, in Islington-square, the thorough- fares en route being crowded with spectators. A deputation representing municipal Corporations waited upon his Royal Higness the Prince of Wales and other Royal Commissioners of the Exhibition of 1S31. at Marlborough House on Friday, July 20, to urge the desirability of applying to the direct promotion of science and art the funds accruing from the investment of the surplus of the Exhibition, and subsequent augmentation from property purchased therewith. His Royal Highness was accompanied by Prince Christian and Eari Gran- ville. Mr. Chamberlain, M.P., having introduced the deputa- tion and explained its objects, and the Mayors of several boroughs having spoken, his Royal Highness expressed the pleasure with which he had received the deputation, and promised that their views should be carefully considered by the Royal Commissioners. A London correspondent of one of the daily papers writes as follows:—"Mr. Osborne Morgan is making another move, lie is a lawyer, and ex hypothesi he knows the- law. But it has never before occurred to him, apparently, to consider how the law stands at present. Now, according to .Mayfair,' lie has de- termined to consider this question deeply. It is probable that the result will be an intimation that there is no power on earth given by the English Constitution to prevent any minister from holding the servicc he pleases. The Englsh law prohibits brawl- ing, but even Mr. Kitson, of Torquay, the great opponent of Dissenting funerals, would not say that a hymn, a prayer, and a passage of Scripture, with a short address at a graveside, were brawling. We shall see what this discovery comes to." The Now Prisons Act has just been issued. It contains 61 sections, divided into two parts the first relating to the trans- fer and administration of prisons, and the sccond to the obliga- tion to maintain prisons and prisoners, with the mode of treat- ment to be adopted. The statute as to its general provisions will not take effect till the 1st of April next, which is termed the commencement;" but it has immediate operation as to the rules and regulations to be made by the Secretary of State, and the appointment by her Majesty, on his recommendation, of Prison Commissioners." On the first of April the maintenance of prisons and prisoners are to be defrayed by moneys provided by Parliament, and the prisons to vest in the Secretary of State. In the second part of the statute there are supplemental pro- visions as to the obligation to maintain prisons, as to con- tracts and debts, the discontinuance of prisons, the status of prison officers, and other miscellaneous matters. Some very serious rioting has taken place in America arising out of the strike of railway servants. The traffic on the Balti- more and Ohio and the Pennsylvania and Erie railways is sus- pended, and a regiment of militia have been ordered out, to pro- tect the lines. At Baltimore, on Friday night, July 20, a mob of 5,000 people attacked the militia with stones and firearms, and so exasperated the soldiers that they tired without orders^ killing ten and wounding thirty of the rioters. The niob set lira to half the railway station, destroyed th- telegraph office, and tore up the railway track. The Governor of Maryland has issued a proclamation calling upon the rioters to disperse. A later telegram states that at Baltimore one hundred rioters were arrested. The town of Pittsburg was virtually in the hands of the mob. Twenty of the rioters there were shot dead by the troops and twenty-nine were wounded. A correspondent at Rome states that theComte de Chambord has sent a letter, dated the 14th July, to the Pope, on the subject ot the approaching elections in France, in which, contrary to the opinion held at the Vatican, he urges that it is no longer opportune to make common cause with all the Conservative party, inasmuch as there appears every probability of its simply turning to the advantage of the Bonapartists, who may absorb everything. The Count expresses the desire that the Pope may use his influence to impress upon the French "Catholics" the obligation of acting and voting exclusively in favour of candi- dates belonging to the party. In consequence, it is supposed, of the questions to which the Comte de Chambord's letter has given rise, a distinguished personage connected with the Pontifical Court is about to make a tour in France and in England, and to confer with Prince Louis Napoleon, in order to endeavour to place the different Monarchical parties in accord regarding the approaching elections, and induce them to set aside the dvnastic C C question until 1S80. The correspondent of the /'Jat Rome, telegraohing on Sunday, July 22, says—The first public sitting in the Antonelli case was held on Saturday, July 21. The Court was crowded to suffocation, and among others, many of the leadirag members of the Italian Bar were present. The discussion was principally sustained by Signer 'Tajani, on the part of the plaintiff, and by Signor Bacchettoni for the defendants, and chiefly turned oil the questions as to whether the Countess Lambertiiii, having, as the defence asseited, a recognised civil position, oonld seek natural parentage when she was known as the daughter of legitimate parents The defence further maintained that the three elder witnesses were in perfect health, and that, con- sequently, no question of urgency required their depositions. Signor Tajani maintained that the mere baptismal register did not constitute a legally-established civil position as required bv the Italian law, and that it only certified the fact of that sacrament having been solemnised. In the course of the dis- cussion, Signor Bacchettoni endeavoured to force Signor Tajani to reveal the name of the lady said to be the Countess Lamhertini's mother. The plaintiff's counsel refrained from mentioning her name, because his clients were anxious to avoid 9 e the painful consequences which would inevitably follow. Never- theless, if it could not be avoided, ho should, when the time came, be prepared to reveal her name, leaving the responsibility to his adversaries. Who could doubt, he asked, that the Countess was the Cardinal's daughter, when there was proof that he had expended more than 2,000,000f. (2,061,072f.) on her up-bringing and edneation

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF WALES. The following letter appeared in Saturday's Times Sir,—While I thank you for your full report of the speeches addressed on Wednesday by members of the. deputation to the Duke of Hichmond and Gordon, I beg your permission to cor- rect a mistake which underlies some remarks made on the occa- sion. It is not the chief aim of the promoters of the University College of Wales to establish a large educational institution as a stepping-stone to other Universities, although without doubt this would be one result of their success. Our desire js to es- tablish in Wales a University College at which there can be oh- tained an education equal to that obtained at Oxford, Cam- bridge, and the ScotAi Universities and we seek to establish this not for the sake of the poor only, but for the benefit of all classes in the Principality. We desire to establish in Wales an institution that shall be to it what the Ul-iiverilv of (;ia>ow is to the West of Scotland.

OUR COCKNEY COUSINS. (Extractafrom London Letters, &c.) Lord Beaeonsfield's speech is considered a masterpiece by all who heard it. It was put together with consummate art—the art which conceals art. It was delivered with a vigour of voice such as we never expected to hear again from the Prime Minister. And then what an audience lie had. The Lower House was de- serted, while the usual nearly empty gilded chamber, gallery and gangway, and the space before the Throne, were thronged. Mr. Gladstone was there, and was evidently much excited. The London papers are mostly of opinion that the Premier fully justified his appointment. They do not seem to be aware t-liat though Mr. Pigott's father has not been the Minister's sup- porter, the family generally have been, nor (which is far more important) that several competent practical persons were men- tioned to the Government, each of them fulfilling the conditions laid down by the Select Committee. Moreover, it was carefully kept out of sight that the wastefulness and extravagance which had prevailed under Mr. Greg's regime had been checked by Mr. Reid, the second in command, who would, there is every reason to believe, have made a very suitable, head.—Liverpool ifercury. Mr. Forster caused a good laugh on Saturday during the Cob- den Club dinner by remarking that he always read the Daily Telegraph in order'that he might learn what was the latest roar of its young lions. It will be remembered that it was his brother-in-law, Mr. Matthew Arnold, who first applied that phrase to the leader-writers of Peterborough-court. Mr. Jasper More, formerly M.P. for one of the divisions of Shropshire, and who accompanied Lady Strangford during her tour in Bulgaria, if going to publish an account of their expe- dition. It ought to be one of the most interesting volumes of the year.—Liverpool Mercury.

THE COSSACK'S HORSE. A correspondent of the Times gives the following amusing proof of the perfect understanding and sympathy that exist be- tween a Cossack horse and his master: "Many stories are told of the cleverness of the Cossacks in obtaining what they need for tliemcelves or horses, and all tend to show that their morality is of a different type to that of European civilization generally. Some of the stories may possibly have been invented, but they show the general tone of feeiiiit, and what is expected from these (piaint, reckless, merry troops. Passing through the streets of Galatz, the thin, weary-looking horse of a Cossack fell suiddenly and lay apparently lifeless on the ground. Its master was iiiove(I even to tears, and bewailed the unhappy fate, which had not only deprived him of a favourite, but left him horseless just at the most interesting moment of the war. A crowd gathered round, anil in it were men whose kind hearts would not suffer them to leave the poor man without some practical expression of their pity. A subscription was made, and the man, taking the saddle from the lifeless animal, went on his way with dried tears, for he had actually wept. As the crowd were bending over the little horse in pure sympathy, a whistle was heard at the other end of the street. The horse sprang to his feet, and with a joyful neigh joined his master, whose clever trick was much admired, even by those who suffered by it."

a THE PRESS IN WALES. Convocation is rather an odd tribunal to assume jurisdiction over the Press, and the Public will probably agree with us tha. the less bishops and church dignitaries have to do with news- papers the better for themselves and the newspapers. What are called the "-religious" papers are the most bigoted and mis- chievous publications that issue from the press they are devoid of charity and generosity, and their news" is all coined in the mint of their own prejudices. The English Press would be a wretched institution if the journals conducted by clei-ics-we do not speak of the Church specially, but Of -ill denominations, for the same failing is characteristic of all—were the only sources of popular informatian avail-able to the people. The two Houses of Convocation have been considering the unhappy state of Wales in the matter of its newspapers in the vernacular The complaint is that the Welsh press is almost exclusively in' the hands of the Nonconformists, and that it is consequently an engine of attack against the Church. This is quite true so far as the facts are concerned. But it is the natural result of the Church's own neglect in alienating the lower classes from its teaching, and handing them over en inatsxe to the Dissenters. The working classes in Wales aro Nonconformists, and it is a mere trade law that they should have journals to please their tastes. It is impossible to change this state of things without beginning at the beginning, and inducing the people to take a more liberal and enlightened view of Church policy. The clergy and the leading laity are the best agents in this work, and they may also be assisted, though very humbly, bj newspapers. The latter, however, will be attractive just in the ratio of their merits, and we fear that the Bishop of Llandaffs notion of publishing his own side and ignoring that of his opponents is not the most hopeful policy towards making a newspaper either acceptable or popular. The public have an instinctive antipathy to "kept" organs, no matter what views they may be intended to advocate, and journals to be really potential must rely on their inherent merits rather than upon episcopal countenance.— Liverpool Courier.
