ITflttirmt (Gossip. BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. Our readers will understand that we do not hold ourselves respon* sibl-e for our able Correspondent's opinions. THE elections for the counties being still in full boil, I do not know that I can do anything better for my constant readers than tell them a little about who's who among the successful and unsuccessful candidates, con- fining myself pretty nearly to those I knew personally— more or less intimately. The Reform Leaguers have been very unlucky their cleverest man, Odger, disqualified by arbitration Mr. Beales beaten, because Mr. Newton, an opposition work- ing man's friend, and not one of the Union, would stand against him. Mr. Newton was formerly a mechanical engi- neer, and secretary to their powerful TradesUnion Society, but he only polled enough votes to keep Mr. Beales out. Mr. Samuda, who got in against Mr. Beales, is a con- nection of the Rothschilds, an iron shipbuilder on the Thames, an able speaker, with a very marked coun- tenance of the Hebrew type. Colonel Dickson mada a worse fight in Hackney than Mr. Beales at the Tower Hamlets; a silent member of sixteen years' standing was turned out, and the poll headed by Mr. Charles Reed, a Common Councilman, a good speaker, sup- ported by all the Nonconformists of the borough. The Common Council has been very fortunate in this elec- tion-with the Lord Mayor in for Lambeth his brother, the alderman, for the City; Mr; Reed, as before men- tioned, for Hackney Alderman Lusk, for Finsbury; the Recorder, for Southampton and I think another officer, in Mr. Thomas Chambers, for Finsbury. The Lord Mayor is a ready speaker and debater, and his Dissent- ing education has not prevented him from opening his ) reign with unusual magnificence. At Beverley Mr. Trollope, the novelist, has failed in beating Sir Henry Edwardes, who is the head of a large but not very profitable company for manufacturing agricultural implements. Baron Rothschild is said to be dreadfully mortined at his defeat in the City. His health is so indifferent that he was seldom able to attend to his Parliamentary duties, and his abrupt manners in business and in the hunting field had made him many enemies. Mr. Nathaniel Rothschild, a young man of a pleasanter style, was more fortunate at Aylesbury. His family are said to own seventy thousand acres in the famous hunting vale after which the borough takes its name. At Bewdley, Sir Robert Glass, one of the knights made by the success of the second Atlantic cable, has gained the honours of Parlia- ment. He is a telegraph-cable manufacturer. Sir Charles Bright, the engineer knighted by the Lord-Lieutenant for the cable that did not succeed, retired this time from Greenwich, finding the honour more plague than profit. Mr. Wylde, the map publisher of Charing-cross, has lost Bodmin after a very long Parliamentary innings. Mr. Miall, the editor of the Nonconformist, and one of the ablest enemies of the Church of England, could not succeed against a local opponent of opinions not quite so advanced. Newspaper men have not been at all successful. Dr. Evans, editor of a Birmingham newspaper, was at the bottom of the poll, although he combined the most Conservative opinions about Church matters, with trader'-union views of the { Sheffield school. At Boston Mr. Mason Jones-an Irishman, I believe, and a professional lecturer, who gave orations on America during the late rebellion, and afterwards on Ireland for the Reform League-made a failure. He is a very eloquent man, in the Irish style but he lost his own election, and that of Mr. Staniland, a local attorney, who sat for some years before the last Parliament. At Buckingham Sir Harry Verney, who in his youth was a fast guardsman, and galloped across the American Pampas forty years age, but has long been a philanthropist of very evangelical views, obtained a majority over Mr. Hubbard, lately governor of the Bank of England, celebrated for his High Church views, and as the patron of St. Alban's, High Holbom. Mr. Butler-Johnstone, successful at Can- terbury, is one of the rising young men of the House, His father sat for the same city, and was one of the most amusing of broad Irishmen. Mr. Samuelson, junior, is returned for Cheltenham, and will sit beside his father, the member for Banbury; he and Mr. Dilke, M.P. for Chelsea, will be two of the youngest men in the House. Sir Wentworth Dilke, less fortu- tunate than the father of the member for Cheltenham, has lost his old seat at Wallingford. There are some people, who, although not agreeing with him in politics, would like to have seen the literary Mr. Dilke accom- panied for Chelsea by "Dr. Russell," so much better known as Billy Russell," of the Times and Crimea. If Anthony Trollope had joined them, periodical literature and daily information would have been strongly represented. Sir Daniel Gooch, who began life as an engineer mechanic, will sit again for Cricklade. Lawyers have been unusually unlucky. The brothers Karslake both lost their seats, and for Sir John, the Attorney-General, this is serious indeed. Edward, the wonderful boy at Harrow, the double-first man at Oxford, the bruising rider with Devon staghounds, was a failure in Parlia- ment, eclipsed by his non-university bred brother—and he is out too. The serious men in the House will not be sorry to lose Mr. Darby Griffiths and his perpetual questions on all subjects, but those who like a little fun, not the least meant by the speaker, will be very sorry. Indeed, this is likely to be a melancholy Parliament without Bernal Osborne-the most jovial, the most [jaunty, the most sarcastic of the middle-aged swells- without the refined bitterness of Roebuck, and the solemn, unconscious absurdity of Sir George Bowyer. Two men who would have beenveryuseful in debates on artillery and small arms. Major Anson, the holder of a Victoria cross, and Major Palliser, inventor of the shot that bears his name, have failed to obtain seats. Major Pallisees brother wrote a most amusing account of his solitary wanderings in the country of grizzly bears. Mr. Sheridan-no relation to the Honourable Mr3. Norton who came in for Dudley years ago by a fluke, sits now quita unopposed, an extraordinary instance of luck for a man dependent entirely on his brains. He ably represents the interests of insurance offices. A Serjeant Simon, not much known to fame, was successful at Dewsbury over a candidate with the remarkable name of Handel Cosham. The new borough of Gr '< would not have Captain Bedferd Pim, R.N., wlto got into a scrape in the last Chinese War for losing nearly all his boat's crew, and getting a dozen wounds himself, in an attempt to "loot" a trea- sure without orders. If self-praise had been any recommendation, the jolly, jovial, Jack-Tar looking captain would have been at the head of the poll. There is no great civil engineer in the House. The Brasseys, father and son, represent the contracting railway interest, and the new town and borough of Middlesborough sends up one of the great ironmasters, Mr. Bolckow, who founded the population by working the Cleveland iron ores. In Maldon, in Essex, Mr. Bentall, a very respectable manufacturer of chaffcutters and old-fashioned, wooden-handled ploughs with modem shares and coulters, has been returned, to the amaze- ment of many of his customers and of the county. This will make, with Mr. Howard of Bedford, Mr. Seely of Lincoln, and Mr. Samuelson of Banbury, four representatives of a trade that only existed forty years ago as a manufacture at Ipswich. Merthyr Tydfil is one of the dirtiest towns in the kingdom. The late member, Mr. Bruce, who has distinguished himself in the education department of Government, wished to clean it and to teach the Welshman English. These crimes, and the still greater crime af not being a Welshman, lost him his seat. The Rev. Henry Riehard, a dissenting minister, secretary to the Peace Society, was returned at the head of the poll by a vast majority. He was able to address his country- men in Welsh, and promised them a saving of twenty millions by abolishing the whole of the Army and the Navy—I am net quite sure if he added the Volunteers, Militia, and Police—as well as a saving of town rates, by every man being his own scavenger, if he liked. The return of Mr. Vernon Harcourt excites curiosity, because he is a very clever man, who cannot bear contradiction, and he will have to bear a great deal in the House of Commons. The mild mil- lionaire, Sir Frederick Goldsmid, has been returned again for Reading, in spite of the opposition of Alderman Sir R. Cardeni At Sandwich Mr. Coffer, who rose, through the patronage of Messrs. Peto and Betts, from a clerk's seat in the Eastern Counties Railway to be manager of the Victoria Docks, and a man of substance in the City, has been turned out by Mr. Brassey, who helped to make the docks and the railways leading to it. Mr. Mundella, who turns out Mr. Roebuck, will repre- sent the hand-working classes in the House, and is spoken of as a m&n above the average in ability. Sir Henry Bulwer, brother of Lord Lytton, who was a wonderful dandy, and member for Coventry and Marylebone when I was a boy, and who has since risen to the highest rank as ambas- sador, has been returned for Tamworth—a strange change of occupation. The comic Charles Forster, who never meant to be comic, and looks after private bill business, without pay, in a most earnest manner, sits, without opposition, for his native town. Warwick once more sends up Mr. Edward Greaves with Mr. Arthur Peel. Mr. Greaves is a silent member, cele- brated for the excellence of his table, his cellar, and his hsavy-weight stud. He will be taller than the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Hunt, probably the tallest man in the House. The House loses some of its most re- markable old members. The new Torv men seem severely studious and grave. P. P.

PASSING EVENTS. THE new postal treaty, which is being negotiated between Great Britain and North Germany, stipulates that the postage between the two countries is to be threepence, and that the system of Post-office orders is to be introduced. THE Journal des Dibats states that the Spanish elec- tions will be fixed for the 15th of next month, and the Constituent Cortes will meet on the 15th of January. INTELLIGENCE received from Persia announces that cholera has broken out at Astrabad. THE Corps Legislatif is not likely to meet before January 20, and the semi-official journals say that no business is likely to be brought before it except the budget and some feN bills which stand over from last session. THE latest news from Brussels is to the effect that the state of the Prince Royal, without having lost much of its gravity, is, however, become less alarming, so as to leave some hope of a cure; only, the convalescence will be exceedingly long, for, in the opinion mf the medical men, the young prince will require the most assiduous c,tre,dating one or perhaps several years. TREATIES have been ratified with the Kansas Indians, securing the immediate cessation of hostilities with eight tribes. General Sheridan is organising a formidable ex- pedition against the savages of the Western plains. TELEGRAPHIC advice3 from Cuba state that the insur- gents were devastating the plantations. General Ler- sundi has received discretional authority from Madrid to suspend sentences of death pronounced upon captured insurgents. IN Hayti Salnave is said to be gaining ground. THE Gazette of India announces that, commencing with November, there is to be a mail every month from India to the United States. The mail will be sent to Hong Kong by the usual steamers, and be forwarded thence to San Francisco, vid Yokohama, by the Ameri- can packets. The postage will be considerably less than by way of Great Britain. COUNT BISMARCK is expected to begin work, after his long holiday, by opening the sittings of the Federal Council on the 31st. INTELLIGENCE received from Mexico states that the city of Alamos, in Sinoloa, and several towns of Sonora and Lower California, have been destroyed by tornadoes. SHOCKS of an earthquake were felt at different quarters of Cologne on Tuesday afternoon at a quarter to four o'clock. SIR THOMAS LACON has resigned the Under-Secretary- ship for Ireland, and will be succeeded by Major-General Wetherall. THE sculling match for £ 200 aside and the champion- ship of the Thames, between Henry Kelley, of Putney, and James Renforth, took place on Tuesday afternoon over the usual course between Putney and Mortlake. Renforth won by three lengths. MOBS of both sides paraded the streets of Bristol on Tuesday, and destroyed from £ 12,000 to X15,000 worth of property. The Provincial Bank was attacked, but sustained little injury. Thirty or forty people were injured. AT Belfast the nomination took place amidst the most disgraceful scenes ever witnessed in that town. The court-house was filled with bludgeon men. The four candidates, Mr. M'dure, Sir C. Lanyon, Mr. Johnston, and Mr. Mulholland having been proposed, and se- conded, Mr. John Rae attempted to speak, but a riot ensued, and the mayor and several magistrates were badly used, Mr. Rae being severely wounded and dragged out twice by the police, the court-house smashed, and the nomination adjourned till the next day. The town was filled with infantry, lancers, and police. Bodies of police armed with rifles were posted at the corners of the leading thoroughfar IT is reported that the United States Governmen have instructed General M'Mahon, the newly-appointed Minister at Paraguay, to proceed to Asuncion with a naval force, in order to obtain redress for the wrongs done to citizens of the United States. THE Ohio Lunatic Asylum at Cleveland was destroyed by fire on the 16th instant. Six patients were burnt to death. THE eruption of Mount Vesuvius still continues, and has now become serious. The lava stream, which is 120 metres wide and from 10 to 12 metres deep, has set on fire a chesnut wood near Fosso Vetrana, and caused much damage. Houses and farms are said to have been overtaken, and the village of San Giorgio is threatened- The people are leaving their houses, and so much distress prevails that a public subscription is proposed. A military division is on the spot, to protect property. A RESOLUTION has been brought forward by Herr Guerard, in the Prussian Chamber, with the object of protecting members from prosecution for votes given or speeches made in the hoiise. The Minister of the In- terior announced that the Government agrees to the re- solution for the sake of peace, though not without misgiving. THE anticipations of the Egyptian cotton crop are fully realised. The total production exceeds 2,000,000 cantars. THEIR Royal Highnesses the Crown Prince and Princess of Prussia are expected to remain in this country about six weeks longer, and will probably spend Christmas with the Royal circle. THE following is the new oath of allegiance provided by the Act of the last Session to be taken by members of the new Parliament:—" I (giving the name) do swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to her Majesty, her heirs and successors, according to law. So help me God.' THE directors of the Bank of England, at their meet. ing on Thursday, advanced the rate of discount from 2 per cent., at which it has stood since the 25th July last year, to 24 per cent. The discount houses have increased their rates of allowance to 1 per cent. for money at call, 1 per cent, for seven days' notice of withdrawal, 4 and 2 per cent. for fourteen days' notice. The London and Westminster Bank have raised their rate of interest on deposits to 1 per cent. on amounts of 9500 and I upwards, and to 1 per cent. on smaller sums. ON Thursday morning the Glasgow Students' Conser- vative Club received a communication from his Grace the Duke of Montrose, Chancellor of the University, to the effect that he purposes giving his casting vote in fa- vour of Lord Stanley. THE Laiv Times says it is rumoured in legal circles that, in the event of a change of Ministry, Lord Justice Page Wood will be Lord Chancellor, and that Sir Roundell Palmer will be made Lord Justice of Appeal. THE canonry at Westminster, vacant by the pro- motion of Archdeacon Wordsworth, has been conferred on the Rev. Canon Prothero, and the stall at St. Paul's Cathedral on the Rev. Robert Gregory, vicar of St. Mary the Less, Lambeth. THE lionourable Joseph Howe, of Nova Scotia, has declared the repeal of the Canadian Confederation Act to be impracticable, and advises a compromise regarding the confederation. Ms. W. E. LENDRICK, late private secretary to the Earl of Mayo, has been appointed to the same office by Colonel Wilson Patten, M.P. COLONEL the HON. F. A. THESIGER, of the 95th Regi- ment, late Deputy-Adjutant-General of the Abyssinian Expedition, has been appointed Adjutant-General of the Indian Army, in place of Colonel H. E. Longden, C.B., who has been compelled by failing health to resign that post, from which he will retire in March next. ON Saturday evening the inhabitants of Brighton gave a banquet in honour of the American Minister. Mr. Peabody was to have been present, but was prevented by ill-health. THE Whitworth nine-inoh gun, by which the unprece- dented range-of 10,300 yards was obtained at Shoe- buryness on Friday, was fired again on Saturday, when it beat even its previous performance, and with 33 degrees 5 minutes elevation, and 501b. charge, threw a 3101b. shell to 11,127 yards, first graze, being about 1,000 yards farther than ever iron mass was hurled by any other gun. THE police authorities prevented the forming of a procession on Clerkenwell-green on Sunday afternoon, to commemorate the" martyrdom of Allen, Larkin, and O'Brien." It was intended that Finlen and his followers should move in procession through the principal thoroughfares to The Reformers' Tree, Hyde Park." A meeting was held in the park, but there was no street demonstration. LORD STANLEY has consented to a modification of the protocol settling the Alabama dispute. The Commis sion of four will sit at Washington instead of London, as at first agreed upon. THE case of John H. Suratt is at length ended. The Criminal Court at Washington has decided that the previous orders of one of its judges, discharging him from custody, was properly issued, and Suratt was finally dismissed. This ends the last of the cases arising out of the assassination of President Lincoln.

Harvey, late M.P. for Thetford, and adds that several other gentlemen will shortly be made baronets. THE three weeks' poll for the chancellorship of the University of Edinburgh has resulted in the return of Lord President Inglis by a majority of 210 votes over Mr. Gladstone. THE Prince and Princess of Wales, after passing a day or two in Paris, where they moved to and fro unmo- ested and almost unrecognised, left on Thursday for Compiegne, and were received at the station by the Em peror in person. THE St. Albans case (Martin v. Mackonochie) came to a close on Friday before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, when the Archbishop of York said their lordships would consider their judgment.

DASTARDLY ATTEMPT TO MURDER. An attempt at murder has just been made near the works for cutting the tunnel through Mount Cenis. A labourer named Avio, aged 19, was travelling on foot from Modane to Bardonneche, when he was accosted by a Piedmontese, who offered to keep him company, say- ing that he was going the same way. On reaching a retired spot, the stranger suddenly attacked Avio, stab- bing him-five times in the breast and arm. The wounded man, however, succeeded in escaping, and reached some mule drivers, who procured him surgical assistance he had left his coat and a small parcel of wearing apparel in the hands of his assailant, who has succeeded in escap- ing arrest up to the present time.

FOREIGN TELEGRAMS. --+-- ACCIDENT TO THE PRINCE OF WALES. PARIS, NOV. 21. The Prince of Wales met with a slight accident while hunting at Compiegne yesterday (Friday). A wounded stag charged his horse, which was knocked over and just grazed the Prince's knee. His royal highness suffered so little inconvenience from his injury that he joined the Imperial party at dinner. The Gaviois of this evening says that during the hunt yesterday at Compiegne the Prince of Wales, while in active pursuit, came in front of a group of stags, and one of them rushed against the Prince's horse, which was thrown down and unseated its rider. The Emperor Napoleon was the first on the spot, and his royal high- was so little injured that he remounted at once and rejoined the hunting party

SPAIN. MADRID, Nov. 17. Telegrams received from the provinces announce that the great demonstrations which took place here on Sun- day last were everywhere most enthusiastic. A large number of adhesions to the principles laid down in the manifesto of the central electoral committee have been received here, and there is no doubt that the principles of that document will be agreed to by a very great ma. jority of the deputies who will be elected to the Con- stituent Cortes. The most admirable order prevails everywhere in the provinces. MADRID, Nov. 20. The Provisional Government have made the following diplomatic appointments :-Senor Posada to be Minister at Rome; Senor Espana, Florence Senor Mantemar, Berlin; Senor Ranees, Vienna; Senor Bias, The Hague Senor Asquering, Brussels; Senor Alarcon, Copenhagen. A decree issued by Senor Sagasta abolishes the Royal Council of Health, together with the regulations of the 6th and 8th of June, 1867, and substitutes a superior Commission, which will carry on the same functions with greater economy. A circular of Senor Zorrilla recommends to the Governors of provinces the establishment of model farms. Senor Figuerola has issued an ordinance in which he states that the bonds of the present loan will possess the same advantages as the other public stocks. An ordinance has also been published with the object of placing the convents which have been suppressed in possession of the authorities as speedily as possible. The amount subscribed to the loan by the bankers of Madrid alone exceeds already 113 millions of reals. MADRID, Nov. 21. A decree issued by Senor Sagasta sanctions the forma- tion of public companies, with the reservation that the object for which they are established must be submitted to the local authorities, and that they must not place themselves under the control of any authority established in a foreign country. Another decree gives to Bejar the title of the Heroic and Liberal City. Senor Figuerola has issued a decree authorising the railway companies to send three delegates instead of one to the committee established for assisting the companies. The total sub- scriptions to the loan up to to-day amounted to 11,950,800 crowns. MADRID, Nov. 22. General Prim, with a brilliant staff, held to-day a grand review of the troops of the garrison of Madrid. A large number of persons assembled, but perfect order prevailed. MADRID, KG?. 22. Messrs. Fould, the bankers of Paris, have telegraphed to the Minister of Finance, stating that they are dis- posed to accept treasury bonds of the present issue in payment of their claim on the Spanish Government which will fall due at the end of next month. Messrs. Fould are ready to return to the Spanish treasury the pagares and other securities of the consolidated debt, amounting to a very considerable sum, which had been handed over as security for the loan contracted with them. PARIS, Nov. 23. The Siecle of this morning publishes a letter from Barcelona, dated yesterday, announcing that a large majority of the inhabitants of Barcelona have, through the medium of the political clubs, pronounced in favour of a federative republic, and against the coalition of the unionists and progressists with the democratic faction. MADRID, Nov. 23. Two grand demonstrations took place at Barcelona yesterday, one in favour of a constitutional monarchy, and the other having a republican tendency. About 25,000 joined the former, and 9,000 the latter. When the two processions met each other on the road, they shouted, Long live liberty and Long live frater- nity The republicans declared that they would regard every one as a traitor to the country who should cause dis- turbances, and expressed their intention of respecting the future decision of the constituent Cortes relative to the final form of government. The admirable order and the whole attitude of yesterday's manifestations has made a most favourable impression. It is rumoured that the monopoly of exchange and commercial brokers will be abolished. It is reported from Malaga that manifesta. tions in favour of a monarchical form of government, and others in favour of a republic, are being prepared to take place next Sunday.

ITALY. NAPLES, Nov. 22. Prince Humbert and the Princess Margharita arrived here this afternoon. The streets from the railway to the palace were densely crowded, and the houses deco- rated with the national colours. Many flowers were thrown by the ladies into the Royal carriage. The popular welcome to the Prince and Princess was cordial and sympathetic although not enthusiastic. The Na- tional Guard mustered very strongly. On their arrival at the palace the Prince and Princess appeared on the balcony, and were loudly applauded. This evening there is an illumination and S.reworks, and a serenade is also to be given to the Eoyal pair. The intensity of t e eruption of Vesuvius appeared to be diminishing to- ay. Yesterday an immense quantity of ashes were IS- charged upon the surrounding country, doing conside. rable damage.

MOUNT VESUVIUS. NAPLES, Nov. 17. Streams of lava from Mount Vesuvius have filled up and overflowed Fosse Vetrana, still following the course of the eruption of 1855. Daring the first two Lours the lava flowed a distance of two kilometres; but now it flows more slowly. Last night the upper cone dis- charged columns of ashes, in the form of gigantic pine trees, illumined by occasional flashes of flame. The eruption presents a sublime and magnificent spectacle, and many persons arc proceeding to the vicinity of the mountain. NAPLES, Nov. 18. The eruption of Mount Vesuvius continues with un. diminished intensity the lava is invading cultivated land, doing considerable damage and threatening villages beneath. The maximum velocity of the lava is 180 metres per minute. If it has not encountered any ob- stacle, it will now have reached the sea. New cones in active eruption have opened at the foot of the great cone, and from them issue two streams of fire flowing into Fosso Vetrana. The great cone emits unfrequent but formidable explosions, violently ejecting stones and fire amid a dense overhanging cloud of smoke. The sis- mograph is still greatly agitated. NAPLES, Nov. 20. Torrents of lava, still advancing, but more slowly than yesterday, have covered the road between Sate Sebastiano and San Giorgio. One branch of the lava is flowing towards the Portici Cemetery. The cones are less noisy.

INDIA. The whole of General Wilde's force has evacuated Huzara, and the Times of India says everything was done so well that not an enemy was visible on the way back. This is a proof, it considers, of the severity of the lesson the tribes have received, as their usual practice is to hang on the rear of a column, and make believe with flags and drums that they have won the victory. Emigra- tion from the native states continues, the population of whole villages and districts flocking into British territory for food. Public works are being carried out in various places, arrangements being made to prevent too great a number of persons assembling at any one point, lest disease should arise. The Bombay Gazette says the news is now confirmed that the Viceroy is to have an inter- view at Peshawur with the Ameer of Affghanistan, Shere Ali Khan. There will be a grand durbar, to which not only the frontier chiefs, but those of the whole Punjaub. will be invited; and not less than twenty thousand troops are to be present. The meeting is to take place, it is- said, in December.

ALLEGED MANSLAUGHTER OF A MIDSHIPMAN. At the Stratford police-court, Mr. William Edward Broadfoot, second officer of the ship Mofussilite, lying in the Victoria Docks, was charged with feloniously wounding and causing the death of Charles James Dry- hurst, a midshipman on board the above ve3sel. The prisoner was the son of the captain of the ship, and the deceased at the time of his death was 19 years of age. It seemed that something had passed which had excited the ire of the prisoner, who told the deceased that he would have an account to settle with. him on the following day. On the 23rd June, when the ship was near Calcutta, the prisoner struck the deceased a violent blow on the head, which was seriously cut, and blood flowed. The deceased, who previously had very good health, was compelled to take to his- berth, and his provisions were reduced. The young man gradually got weaker, and on the ship arriving at Cal- cutta he was removed to the hospital, where he died of typhoid fever, brought on by the injuries he had sus- tained, and his very low state. Several of the seamen then deposed to seeing the prisoner violently assault the deceased. The first blow threw the deceased flat on the hencoop, and he called out, "Don't, sir; don't,, sir." The prisoner struck the deceased more than once, and the wounds on his head appeared as if they had been inflicted by some instrument, but the prisoner was not seen to have knuckle dusters on his hand. The magistrate remanded the accused for a week, and inti- materl that they would allow him to put in substantial bail to appear on the day named for his re-examination. y--
MORMON POLICY.

MORMON POLICY. The Mormons have resolved on non-commercial inter- course with the Gentiles, and the establishment of trade co-operative societies among themselves. The reasons for this exclusiveness are presented substantially in the following fashion :-It lIiI the avowed design of the Gentile portion of the oommunity, when the railroad is finished, to outnumber and outvote the Mormonlportion, and thus control the local and general politics of the territory. This, the Mormons account, would be tanta- mount to a renewal of the troubles of Missouri and Illinois, 25 and 30 years ago, and, in fact, would presage another Mormon exodus. In order to prevent, if possi- ble, any such tragic consummation, and to retain a foot- hold in the valleys of the Great Basin, which they proved capable of self-sustaining settlement, the Mormons have determined that they will sustain only their own peopleUn this territory, withdrawing their usual custom from t Ihe.Gentile merchants and bestowing the whole upon the Mormon merchants. The policy of such a measure had been urged many times previously, but never so generally nor so strenuously as of late, nor has there ever been manifest so desired nor so general a. disposition to accept and to act upon such a policy as of late.

THE GAME LAWS. In his report relating to the w°ni6a< and children in agriculture, just published, the Rev. J. Fraser, M.A., touches incidentally ^on the effects of the preservation of game. He says The extent to which the system of game preserving is carried on in many parts of England, and particularly in the county of Nor. folk, is assuming a serious significance both in a moral,, and in an economical point of view. The farmer cannot cultivate his land with the proper measure of profit, and there is a tangible loss thereby sustained in the resources of the country; while the way in which, and the extent to which, preserves are stocked to meet. the present taste for battue shooting, and to satisfy the notion that you have had no sport, unless, like Samson, with his Philistines, you have slain heaps upon heaps,' act as irresistible incentives with the peasant,, who loves his bit of sport as truly as the gentleman, and whose honest earnings are not sufficient to en-ble him to overcome the temptation thus thrown in his way, to both poach and steal. The sport of shooting certainly assumes proportions in Norfolk that, so far as I have observed, are unknown elsewhere. The rev. gentleman proceeds to observe that it has not. only greatly enhanced the value of land, but that fabulous rents are offered for the occupation of a man- sion and the right of shooting over a few thousand acres of stubble and plantation, where the hirer possibly does not intend to reside more than a fortnight, or at the outside a month, in the year."
