      It seems likely that , before long , the only possession left to Queen Isabella in her own country will be a " Chateau en Espagne . "

      Complaints Are Being Raised Most Justly,...

      Complaints are being raised most justly , because the British soldier is branded , and the British sailor not watered sufficiently . Let Jack Tar have more water ; it is for his health and the country ' s good ; but don ' t take all the spirit out of the Army by branding defaulters with a B . C .

      Several landlords seem to be obtaining great praise for ¦ publishing their gracious permission to their tenants to vote as they ( the tenants ) choose . Surely this is cheaply-earned praise , for their simplest duty seems to be to let their tenants vote as they please , and say nothing about it , before orafterwards .

      The Freaks Of The Revising Barristers Ar...

      The freaks of the Revising Barristers are becoming more j troublesome than amusing . These gentlemen are , we know , always chosen on account of their eminent qualifications for the office , but it seems only fair that they should be asked to give some proofs of their knowledge of the law , before they are permitted to revise it .

      The Dean of St . Paul's is dead . In the Rev . Henry Hart Milman the English Church loses a golden link between herself and the World which she can ill spare ; the World loses one between itself and Religion which it can spare still worse : for he knew how to enjoy the noblest pleasures of earth and yet fit himself for the far nobler pleasures of heaven .

      The Good, Honest Young Souls Of The Stoc...

      The good , honest young souls of the Stock Exchange are angry with Father Ignatius Lyne ( not Loyola ) for comparing the City to J ericho . Considering the amount of puffing that goes on within those golden precincts , the inhabitants are entitled to consider their City very unlike Jericho in one

      respect ; its walls must be trumpet-proof . The Rev . Mr . Lyne can scarcely wonder at the treatment he received . What better can he expect if he will preach to Bears and Bulls ?

      Referring to the argument that the ballot is un-English , the Spectator exclaims " So much the better ! " Aware how thoroughly un-English it is itself , it evidently is anxious to say

      Referring To The Argument That The Ballo...

      something for its own peculiar position . Suppose it divested itself of its nationality altogether ? Few would be sorry , and nobody would then be duped . Of all the shallow and contemptible cants of a canting time , the cant of Cosmopolitanism to the depreciation of Patriotism is the silliest and worst .

      Mr . Goschen has made a joke . We reproduce it lest any of our readers should have missed it . " It was said that the electors of the City were not so numerous now as formerly . Perhaps there were not so many persons sleeping in the City , but he flattered himself they were fully as wide awake . " We

      now understand why this unfledged Chancellor of the Exchequer was so silent all last Session . We wonder Mr . Crawford was not equal to the occasion , and at the word " wide-awake "did not hit on the brilliant notion of exclaiming , " I'll have your hat . "

      Economy Is Especially Desirable For All ...

      Economy is especially desirable for all papers at this dull period of the year . We , therefore , suggest that the iollowing paragraph might be always kept set up : — the '' Strand The Duke Theatre of Edinburg in the evening h arrived . " in London yesterday , and went to Nobody can "deny that the hig i j hest class of Dramathe

      Bur-V ^ - , — lesque and the Cancanesque , finds plenty of support from Royal patronage " . Perhaps the gallant captain of the Galatea thinks that the nearest approach to being at sea is sitting at the Strand .

      Mr. Elliott Has Earned The Respect And G...

      Mr . Elliott has earned the respect and gratitude of every person who wishes to see the Law cultivating a closer alliance with Justice , by sentencing three " highly respectable " boys for stealing from the stalls at the Crystal Palace to a month ' s imprisonment 1 — * ¦ ^ — — — — ~~ with — —~ r — hard — — — — — - ^^» ¦ labour ¦ ~~ - ™~ - *^ - ~ ~~ - ^ w ^» .

      " highly respectable " boys will derive much benefit from their association with the inmates of a felons' prison , but at any rate , thanks to the excellent education that they have doubtless received , they will not suffer more contamination as regards their morals , than poor ignorant boys of the same age .
