The reason ts that Queen and Lady Constance have been life com- and that Her Majesty is perhaps more strongly od to her than to any other of her personal lends, and if Lady Vonstance dies it is problematic \ehat the Queen will open the session of Parliament in sai She will doubtless be glad to find a pretext for voiding publicity. OOURTIERS AND TRADERS EXPECTANT OF A PAGEANT. 4 This isthe view which prevails among the cour- iors, There is, hence, a threatened collapse of the lizabethan scheme of the Marquis of Salisbury, who, in an article published in the Quarterly Review, glorifies © public and private character of ‘Good Queen ,”” significantly hinting that England and the at large would be better if Victoria imitated the Virgin Queen. It would prove a great disap- _pointment, not only to Lord Salsbury but to Lon- }donera generally, who peruse the daily account of | jthe preparations which are being made for the yusual festivities, and who have actually jseen the cream colored horses of the royal mews, fat \d lazy from inaction, taken out for exercise prepara- ‘tory to their laborious dcty of dragging the state yeoach, which has been repaired and regilded. PASHIONABLES IN A FLUTTER, ‘ In the fashionable world there is quite a flutter to se- — places in the galleries of the House of Lords, in der to gaze on the features of royalty. ARISTOCRATIO BOCIAL REPORMATORY IDEAS. In these circles there prevails also a great desire to “Bee the Queen lead London society again. They attrib- pate the general immorality prevailing among the upper jelasses to her absence from public life; but:l am afraid England must await the coronation of Edward VQ, for an assertion of the dignity and splendor of the y. and, perhaps, an improvement in the moral © of English society.

A SOLID suBsTITUTE. Any way, whether the Queen appears in public or we are promised the appearance of Dr. Kenoaly, eho will be escorted to the House of Commons by the members of the Magna Charta, Association, bands of usic and banners, PRRCAUTION AGAINST A REPETITION OF HISTORY. The police will doubtless interfere to prevent a jrepetition of the tumults which occurred in the me- Mropolis a hundred years ago, when, as Dickens de- moribes in ‘Barnaby Rudge,” Lord George Gordon did ‘Who same thing. THE MOVEMENT FOR ABDICATION. The Prince of Wales has a strong party engaged in PAvocating, directly and indirectly, his mother’s abdi- @ation of the throne, PAWNING ON THE OMIR APPARENT The authors of the “Coming K."” and “Jon Duan’ Mhave in “Edward VIL” changed coats. Instead of vilifying the Prince of Wales they dwell rather on ‘his bonhomie and his undeveloped soldierly qualities, Whe book is full of fawning sycophancy.

JANUARY 30, 1876.—FRIPLE SHEET. Rev. H. Keet, Wesleyan Minister~ xno nev. mr. Smith, of Christ’s church, official delegate, objected on behalf of the Established Church. AN IMPORTANT DECISION. ‘The Court has decided that the word “reverend” ts not a title of honor or courtesy buta laudatory epithet, never exclusively belonging to the English Church establishment, but simply a matter of usage, and that usage bas long conceded the title to the Wesleyans. ‘The Dean of Arches had erroneously assumed that the” prefix “reverend” was rightly a title of the clergy epis- copally ordained. FUN OF THE PULPIT MEN, Now comes the grotesque part of the afuir. Several ministers of the Church establishment have written to the editors of the religious newspapers requesting that in future they shall be addressed simply as “rector” or “*vicar,’”” omitting the title “reverend,” which is now, they say, desecrated. The quarrel affords much amuse- ment to the secular journals, ‘THE LORD MAYOR AS A MORALIST AND MISSIONARY. A grotesque matter, also, is the raid of Lofd Mayor Cotton apon the users of Billingsgate vernacular, under an old law of Charles IL, which has been re- vived with the view of putting a stop to the use of ‘bad language. There have been several arrests of swear- ers. Some of the streets of the city are placarded thus:— OU y HABIT.” ; Half a dozen of the persons arrested have been rep- rimanded and promised money fines the next time they were brought before the most worshipful “beak.” ‘THE OARSMEN OF THE UNIVERSITIES.

Oxford says that the matter of an international collegiate match in America will be discussed at a meet- ing of the club to be held on the 2d of February. A special to the Standard says there is little’ chance of their being represented at the International Collegiate Regatta at New York on the 19th of July, but a Phila- dolphia fixture, in August or September, may induce ‘the club to send a crew over, WHAT THE CAMBRIDGE MEN SAY.

It is evident that Admiral Rous does not think that Bay Eagle bas much chance for the Derby. « Bay Final, in the Metropolitan, should have a great chance, as he receives weight from some moderate horses. THE AMERICANS NOT BUSY. At present the Americans are not doing much om the turf. THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK Continued duiness is reported in business circles. Failures here and elsewhere exercise a depressing in- fluence, and outside of well established securities there is nothing which invites investment, In the Stock Exchange speculation is very quict, and little demand is to be noted in government stocks or home railway shares. Briof activity was exhibited in BOYPTIAN BONDS on the basis of favorable rumors, but as they were not verified reaction occurred, and there was a decline of from one to twoand a half per cent. Mr. Cave, the British Commissioner to the Khedive, is expected in Bngland at an early day, and his report is eagerly awaited. The depression of Egyptian securities has attracted the largest speculative attention during the week. Sales have been made at from one-half to ono and a half per cent decline. Hungarian, Turkish, [tal- lan and Argentine bonds have also been lower. ‘THE KHEDIVE’s PROSPECTS. The mission of Mr. Cave is the basis of much specu- lation, and the London Zoonomist freely expresses the opinion that the failure of the English government to straighten the finances of the Egyptian Viceroy is re- garded even in government circles as a probable con- | tingency. An editorial in the 7imes, which asserts that Egypt must restore her credit by her own exer- tions, alone and unaided, has caused a profound sen- sation, We have reports from Paris that those in that city who are interested are likewise considerably ex- cited.” Aslight advance has occurred in Spanish bonds ow- ing to the success of the Alfonsists. RIE, The committee of bond and share holders in Erie re- cently held another meeting, which was largely at- tended. The reorganization scheme was again dis- cussed, although without important result. Sir Edward Watkin presided, and in the course of bis re- marks stated that the committees were anxious to act ‘with their American partners to the end that thorough co-operation should be establisned. THE MOA MINE, It is not improbable that two gentlemen will shortly leave for America for the purpose of obtaining tne views of prominent citizens with reference to the condition and prospects of the enterprise. Notwithstanding the declaration by Reverdy Johnson that he has faith in Minister Schenck’s honesty tn this matter the new Emma Mine directors are of a different opinion, and writs have | been issued against Messrs, Park and Stowart, the, American promoters. The statement that a writ has deen issued against Minister Schenck is not true. He ‘s regarded by some legal experts as exempt from ar- rest, owing to his ambassadorial character. The mat- ter, however, has been officially submitred to the best lawyers, to the end that it may be determined whether he can be attacked through the American cdarte, ,and if not whether the American government can be held responsible. ever, are 1kewise in sharp demana, and, judging from the large blocks of stock that have been recently pur- chased, the tendency is upward, MoNRY is stagnant, and should continue easy, but the demand from Germany continues. France is quietly absorbing specie, and it is not unlikely that within a few weeks the drain upon the Bank of Eng- land will compel a change in its interest rate, A leading financial journal, referring to the accumulation of uninvested money, draws attention to the fact that there is a dearth of bonds which offer a fair profit, and that first class American securities with ® remunerative prospect, if offered, would meet with a warm weloome.

The rejection by the Reichstag of the additions to the penal code for farther restricting the clergy by prohibiting the posting of objectionable commanica- tions on the doors of the churches, occasions general surprise. It was intended as a supplement to a previous bill prohibiting abuse of the pulpit, The latter bill was evaded by placarding the objection- able communications on church doors or by pamphiet pastorala, and the proposed clauses would have applied the pulpit law to those communications.
