LONDON CLUBS AND SOCIETY.
LONDON CLUBS AND SOCIETY. (fhoii OUB OWN OQIMESPONDKNT,) The Laud Leaguers may complain of their Individual poverty, but the Laud League is rich. It haa invested nearly £õO,OOO abroad for tho conduct of the agitation against landlordism. Most of this money comes from America, but a portion of it its derived from the Irish peasants -themselves, and they are contributing a larger quota every month. Their learned excellencies the authorities of Oxford and Cambridge are growing mighty exclusive. They have tho copyright of the Revised Version of the Bible—about m bad a form of ^opyriijht as was ever devised by mortal man. Even universities ought not to possess copyright of public and even interna- tional versions of the English Bible. But so strictly are they exercising their right that they insist upon apologies from newspapers which obtain and publish beforehand any details of the changee made by the Jeru- salem Chamber Revisers. Such sctior as this will probably convince even Mr. Miall that the State may sometimes adudt the fact that there is such a book as the Bible. The State ought to have given the money neoes- isry for the revision. Not having gi*«u the noney, and having forced the revisers to sell their work to the universities, the State ought at I once to buy back a copyright which in being 10 closely guarded. It will be a scandal if the new version is not at once allowed to be circu- lated by i)very bookseller in the country, livery monopoly tends to become mischievous.; a I monopoly of the best current version of the Bible would be an intolerable abuse. Let me recommend those who would liko to kuow what the senior wranplership really means to get the Cambridge Chrvmcle In a supplement to that journal are published the papers set for the mathematical tripos; and very edifying they are. I am especially amused at the so-called u Eaøy Problems" which are given in the intervals of the heavier papers, presumably by way of relaxation. Most persons will, I think, be inclined to question the applica- j bility of the term "easy except by com- j parison. It will be noticed, too, that the ele- i ment of applied science is by no means omitted j fram the liat of subjects. On the contrary, j it occupies a very important positiou. The whole list of papers is positively bewildering. Fancy such an ordeal passed by young men twenty-two years of age I understand that a very funny proposition I' has just been made,to the Committee of Sowers by one of the aldermen. It is to the effect that the Temple Bar Memorial shall be allowed to litand six months and then shall be carted away condition that the public do not molest it j jor the six months intervening. But what is j to be done with it when carted away no one i knows. I Statues by competitionhontinue to make Lon- don the abode of the unsightly. A new mistake about to be comnitted about Rowland Hill. Designs have been sent in. The most promising deaign baa bion accepted and aa almost unknown artiat hat been told to send in •larger design. Mr. E. Onslow Ford has, I • vet done nothin; to lead anybody to believe in his genius, (is accomplishment is limply that he has mad a promising design. But to him will be given that on which every- thing depends—the exeution of the design, which will probably be tie execution also of the promise. Mr. Alfred Elmore, lA., is dead. He is among the sexagenarian whom the severe weather has slain. Ac Irilhman of county Cork, he was patronise in his youth by the great Daniel O'Coraell, a.td later in Ufe was, as his friends lied to say, Painter to Ordinary to the Art Union." Nearly 36 years ago he became an 4sociate of the Royal Academy. My own recUootioas of his work are pleasing. He kop- ideatiatic treatment alive when it was less he fashion than it is now. His "Leonore," ex.bited a few yeara ago, a rendering of Biiri/er'a biad. dwells in memory as inmost the only picture the Academy of the year, which did w belong either to the grandiose or the bread )d butter school. There was a terribleicare the other night In Kensington. Two of ho sentrioa from the barracka had left their jijts, and thcro were all sorts of wild ruinourri to ifeniau plots and stratagems. The matte however, was much more simple, though stilierious enough. The eehtiaels-two mere ladii believe—had left their post and gone to public-house, taking with them their art and 20 rutmria of ball cartridge. They to at length arrested by the police, who foui them hiding behind trees in the neighbourhood the barracks. The matter is being kept very let, but where it has leaked out it is, of oofce, magnified into a Fenian scare. This Is tltrue version of it, haeover, and it is likeljnly to prove setiuu8 for the young men themwes.

Artillery, and during theaetwe yean tho gallant m.'vj .r drew his pay of 16s. a day.—There being ne athor business on the paper, their lerdshipe adjettrsed. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—Thursday. The adjourned debate on the Introdaetioo of the ( >erei ui Pill was resumed by Mr. Lahnoohere. Anulysinar the Parliamentary returns, he shewed that the number of outrages charged affataet Iriehinea were grossly rxatfjsrated, a l'Ibwltl act being made to .¡J,,ar under various beads. The Coereien Bill WM t; t to put down outrage* sinoe there wommus" it wae oj,niily a bill to enable the landlords to collect their rents. If the Government turned a deaf ear to his appeal to withdraw the bill, he insisted that it oeght to 1 f by a ueamire for the p»nteetf"n of tenants.-—Tlio O'Donoghue eontonded thrt the land League diff'red iti no respect from the Anti-Cera Iiaw League, and no State trials followed the Aati-Com Law aa-itatioa.—Mr. Bright said he wowld noi h;yc reimtiHed a member of a GeveruMent aHeaavt- imr fo deal with Ireland solely by It CnttrGlon Bill. But the Coercion Bill weuld be aoeoiu |«aui^d by a large remedial nwasuse; With regard to the necessity fo* the lie had reoeived numerous ceeamunU ciitiort3 frr-m pereous of every class and party In Iro. land, and among them au there was a general Consensus as to the deplorable state of the Country. Tlie result was that we had now in England,tho home or a new class of refugees, those who had been obliged to fly from Ireland. The Land League might boast ef their power, but be doubted their wisdom and ixttriotiwm. There was no parallel be- twooti the Land League and the Anti*Corn Law League. The last thing the Anti-Corn Law L-ague would have done wonld have been to destroy feelings of honour and honesty among the people, hut the Land League had demoralioed the people whom it professed to befriend. The Govern- ment had introduced the bill under a solemn sense of duty which could not be escaped, and they believed that though it might be a measure of resti-ictiox for a fuw, it would be a measure of mercy for laany.—The dubate was again adjourned. HOUSE OF LORDS.—FRIDAY. Earl Kimbsrley read the telegram received from .*>ir George Colley announcing the repulse of the Britiah troops by the Boers.—Lord Waveaey moved an Address to the-Crown, praying that CanJahar, as an independent territory, be constituted an emporium of trad" and commerce under British administra, tion and government.—The motion was opposed by Lord Enfield, who drew from previous wars in Afghanistan the lesson that it was the in- terest of England tq abstain from interference ia Afjnui affairs. Lord Dunraven appealed to the Government to state niore explicitly their reasons for abandoning Candahar.-The Duke of Argyll con* tended that the policy of tha Government in deter* mining not to retain Candahar was in accordance with that advocated by successive administrators in India and that nothing had occurred which ought to induce us to depart from that policy. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY. Mr. Childers read the telegram above referred to from Sir George Colley.-In answer to Mr. Ash mead- I-Ilartlett, Lord Partington said the decision not per- maner.tly to occupy Candahar had been arrived at with a full knowledge that the Russian, expedition against tfie Turkomans niight be successful,and would net be modified in consequence of that sucveml- Mr. Gladstone said he understood that there waa a d'spopifcion-to close the debate on the first "reading of Mr. Fordber's BiU that evening.—JVfcr. Parnell opposed this proposal on the ground that there were many Mi-h members who desired to discuss the returns of agrarian outrages juat presented to the House.-Ile debate on the first reading was then resumed, and after some speeches had been made, Mr. Gladstone rose. 'He said that what the Government aaked Parliament to legislate against were the measures and the perpetrators of outrage. The abettors and perpetrators of outrage were not the "utIflring population of Ireland. They were the Whiteboys, the ex-Whiteboys, and the relios of Fer.i.ir.bm. These were not the men to be converted by remedial legislation. With a fatal and painful precision had the steps of crime dogged the steps of the League. What Minibters founded their cgre chiefly upon was the utter breakdown of the adminis- tration of justice in the casq of agrarian crime.—On th!M"i.1tion of Mr. C. Lewis the debate was again -Lord Randolph Churchill obtained leave to firing in a bill for the limitation of actions for small tiebU..

ITavelock-AIlan and ,other questioners, that durinw the ho-t 10 day* a force of 4,500 officers and men had boen landed at Durban. Arrangements hat been made fur despatching additional forces, but on the previous day he had received a telenram from Sir Groriro Colley to the effect that the rehiforoem«nte already on their way to Durban were »ufficient. With res 1 ct to the question of graftting belligerent rights to the Boers, in the course of Friday he sent a tele- jrram to General Colley, instructing him to treat them according to the rules of civilised warfare, in eluding the exchange of prisoners, aud with in 16 hours alter e received a message in reply that tho genural had maintained courteous relations with the Boer eoinmandcr; that, as the Doers had released the prisorifers taken from us, he should r eloase tii- Vriioners taken from them and that, as they had acted with courtesy and humanity, he proposed to do tlia eame.—The debate on the t rat reading of the Protection Bill was rasmned by Mr. C.

He u«>-ired to sl>ew that Mr. Gladstone on Friday night attributed to him a speech which !>ad been made by someone else- Amid frequent calls to order, ha went on to reply to Mr. Gladstone's speech, and declared it was tho duty of the Irish members to use every form of the lioute to roaist this stage until sufficient time had been given for discussion.—Lord Hartinqt .n op- poitd the motion, and said that it was erident th.-ti the timtl for compromise was almost past.—The dis- eussion was continued by Mr. T. P. O'Connor, the ardinary arrangements for an all-night sitting having been mad,oll both sides. THE DEBATE STOPPED- BY THE SPEAKER. Proceedings in Parliament are still unsatisfactory.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE CORN…
WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE CORN TRADK. (From the Mark Lane JBxpreu.) The general thaw which set in at mid-week has quickly denuded the ground of snow, and the crops have now that green and fresh appearance which i." "I usual under such circumstances. During^the frost tha .• crops were, as a rule, effectually protectJa by a deep Covering of snow, and no' damage to growing crope t is to be feared except in isolated cases where, in exposed situatious, the ground was leit bare by the "*•- force of the wind. On the whale, the wheat plant a* the end of J an nary is in a very favourable p.^i tion in this country, whilst on the continent of ♦ Europe (he wholesome check to a too rapid winter growth haa materially improved harvest prospects, so far aa they may be discussed at such an early date. Farmers' deliveries of wheat have been on a s nail scale during the past week, which may be satisfac- torily accounted for by the difficulties attending threshing operations—for which the winter has other- wise been exceptionally favourable—and transit of every kind. The demand for broadstuffs through- out the country, which must havs been heightened by the severity of the weather, appears to have been met by existing stocks without difficulty or ineonveal* ence, inasmuch as the trade has not met even a frac- tional improvement. In London the small supplies have entitled factors to maintain priees off stands, but the trade has been reduced to such a narrow limit that the advantage of the position haet been wholly lost. The prospective foreign supply has overruled every other consideration, and buyers w* maeters of the situation. In provincial mirk eta there have been similar conditions prevailing, and at Liverpool trado in breadstuffs has been particularly slow, at a decline in values which has not been quoted to an equal extent elsewhere. With regaird L- to bar lev the trade has been devoid of animation, both » in London and the provinces, throughout the weik. but prices, generally, may be quoted as in favdtir ■' of sellers tu the extent of the very limited amount of bosinoHs transacted. The malt trade continues to bC3 unchanged in respect of its long-continued dullnesa whil&t reduced deliveries enable factors to maintain rIc the prices which form the current level of values, Oats maintain the advance of Monday, and continue to be in »*lleis' favour. Beans and peas meet < very slow sals, at late rates, and Engligh linseed it getting scarce. The trade in foreign breadstuffs haa not only suffered mechanical restriction during the week, but it hae also been characterised by extreme dullness. hW..Aiö. ouhhknt prices or imm HT HAIlff LAM Wheat red, 39? to 45s.. „ „ old red,—to- f whrta Flenr, per sack of 28(Jlb., town-aiede,' nonlaal to( priou Town-uiade whit«*« Jbb 2 London li«ni*eholdg I/S.2 S London i-econds 2 Bart eouatry honeeheMs S llawt. makes .1 j! <- Sorfolk and Suffolk S S 1. re(L eld —- to —j new. h f 14.foli,,Li.-In WA Irl-it red old -Dow Barley — Cbl"lier b81r.
