'fire DISSOI ITION AXDTHE ELECTIONS—
Ahetwg of the New Parliament . —The
Time# says: On Wednesday, the last
Parliament elected under the Reform
Act of 1862 will be dissolved. The
mail* of Wednesday evening will carry to
all the returning officers of the Kingdom
writs under the Great Beal, commanding
them to convene the const imcncios to
choose members to serve for them in
Parliament. The proclamation will be
made in almost all the constituencies on
Thursday, and the day of nomination lor
boroughs will be fixed for this day week.
The number of boroughs absolutely un
eontested was. probably, never so 'small
as it will be in the coming elect ions.
The representatives of the unoontested
towns will be elected on Monday. The
contested boroughs will l>e polled on
Tuesday, and, bv Tuesday night or
Wednesday morning, the balance of
parties will be definitely struck. The
result of the contest in the English
boroughs will resolve the greater number
of doubtful elements in the question,
“How the neat Parliament will be
divided ?” and we anticipate that, on
Wednesday morning, next week, it will
he aeon that the opposition have an as
sured majority, which we may now cau
tiously describe as approaching n hun
dred The time, however, between to
day and the end of the contest is so short
that it is idle to waste arguments on the
point, and we are willing to ooncede any
Reduction which tHe friends of the Min
istry may suggest as soiree during the
next week. The Ir&h and Scotch burghs,
the English counties, and the comities of
sister Kingdoms will hold their elections
in the latter part of tic next week, and
the week following, and as tliere is no
contest for the representation of Orkney,
it aeeraa possible that the members of the
new House will he completed before the
end of this month. A alight interval of
rest may, perhaps, be acceptable when
the general election is over; but it is
doubtful whether it would not, on the
whole, be more agreeable to reduce this
interval to as abort a period Hi possible,
so as to allow of a longer recess at Christ
mas* The necessity, Os determining the
future policy of the Nation towards Ire
land, and, incidentally, the fate of the
Ministry,*makes it imperative that the
debate on the Address should terminate
not later than Friday night, the ISth, or
Saturday morning, the 19th of December;
and it allows that Parliament must as
semble, and the members be sworn in,
at the latest in the week, ending the 12th
of December*
Thitri.es, Thursday Morning.—On last
night, a respect able young man, named
John Hyatt, was killed in the shop of Mr.
Martin Ryan, of this town. It appears
that the deceased and his brother went
to the establishment of Mr. Martin Ryan
to drink, and, after having partaken of
half a glass, of wbi&ey, the deceased s
brother left the shop, and, in leas than one
minute after, the depeasocNras struck on
the head with g skull-cracker, und foil
Hfoless 6n the floor. Medical assUanpe
was immediately scut for, and Dr. Parcel!
soon after arrived, hut the deceased was
dead. Three persorti have already been
arrested.— h't.di Timr».
Limekick, 'Thursday Evening.—-Mr.
Brett, County Surveyor of Limerick, was
fired at by a person unknown, oti Tuesday
night, near his residence at Ratbkeale.
Fortunately, he escaped uninjured, hut no
trace of the would be assassin has since
been discovered.
Tim General Oouiicu, at Rome.—
The Tuhte/, of «Saturtlmy, which appears,
for tho first time, under the conduct of
Father Herbert Vaughan, says: ’•The
Roman congregations hove been working
bard all throofpi the Bummer, in prepara
tion tor the General Council, and this
week they have begun again with renewed
vigor. Cardinals Billo and Reisach are
oestinually engaged upon it. Consnltors
from all porta of tbe Church are being
invited to Rome; and we have a special
gratification in adding that the Holy
Father baa sent 0 particular invitation to
tbe Very Rev. Dr. Newman* take part
m its preparation —the first invitation of
tbe kind that baa come to an English
Priest. Bat we regret extremely to leani
that Father Newman’s age and health,
MBBMB Off TO WWIBBL
and the peculiar effect upon his constitu
tion of the climate of Rome, have com
polled him to submit these eimmistunces
to the Holy Father as reasons for being
allowed to remain quietly at home. An
invitation to accompany an illustrious
Bishop ns Theologian to the Council was
declined by Father Newman some
months ago.”
Thk Throne ok Srai v.—Tin* streets of
Madrid were placarded, on the fitb, with
i large bills, wnich drew much attention.
The placards contained these words ;
“Geneml Novaliehes lias so far recov
ered from his wound* that he was able to
leave his chamber, for the find; time, on
Friday.*’ The anniversary of the death
qf Uiego, who was executed on the Place
Cebcda, was cek*bruted, on tbe 7th, by a
religious ceremony. It is rumored that
Senores Olasuga, Nicolas, Riverto, and
Martot are to replace Senores Lorenzana,
Romevo, \ ’Ortiz, and Agala in the
Ministry. The entry of tbe two hitter
would be regarded as a concession to the
Republican party. Castclar is spoken of
aa Minister to Mexico. The Government
are buying back from the people the guns
which were distributed to or seized by
them in the first days of the Revolution.
Amongst the placards carried about in
Madrid is one with the inscription, “Abayo
la Deuda,” (“Down with the Public
Debt”) The people are becoming witty
under tl»c new regime. The Espe*
ranza said that, if liberty of worship
was allowed in Spain, it would go to
colonize some desert island in Oceanica.
The Ibi’ria replies by exclaiming, ‘‘Success
to our future Robinsons.”
The Italian Candidate —There is
some reason to believe that, the Italian
Government is endeavoring to secure
supporters for the Duke of Aosta as a
candidate the Spanish Throne. v lt is
stated, on good authority, that Italian
agents have beep sent to Paris, ‘Berlin,
and other Capitals, to sound the principal
European Governments on this point, and,
if necessary, to represent the proposed
candidate in as favorable a light as possi
ble. One of it* warmest advocates ip
Paris was Bignor Ratazxi and Mdme
Rutazzi. Bohns Bonaparte is now ac
tively engaged in continuing the nego
tiations opened by her husband with
certain influential French politicians.
At Madrid, the Duke of Aosta is believed
to have a strong supporter in M. 0!o

The States ok the Churcii.— Rom*,
Nov. 11 —The Pope has placed the ser
vices of his physician at the disposal of
Fuad Pacha, whose state of health has
become worse. An oi dihunec of Cardinal
Autonelli announce* that His Holiness
has ordered a modification us the export
duty upon two hundred art isles of manu
facture, in older to encourage the devel
opment of trade. The Pope has also in
structed the Papa! Charge d’Affaire* at

A Woman Thrashing a Clergyman.
-—At the Police Court, Liverpool, ou
Saturday, a woman, named Ann Troy,
was fined o*. and costs for assaulting!be
Rev. John Noble, Corate of Si. Titus’
Church, in that town. Tlie Rev. gentle
man was visiting in the district where
the defendant 1 ivied, and inquired of her
what place of worship she attended. She
replied by giving him several blows on tlie
side of the head, finishing by “flooring"
him, much to his chagrin and annoyance.
Mr. Diskakli's JRfekch at Tim Lord

Mr. Disraeli was Hcvrr id Iwttor form

The sfx ecb. in which he replied to the

miracle of assurance. The ©am* with
which lit* assn mol that, as « mutter of
course* he woukl be eallod upon to reply
twelve months hence in the ©ante Hall to

Time*, however, gathers from the speech
that Mi PisraeU’s career as Prime
Minister approaches bis term ; he has no
new card to play. He most saeeutnbior
a season to adverse fortune, and trust to
the Strength of oust >m among mankind

which is now imminentehall have been
accomplished. The speech of last night,
with alt its audacity iind art, reveals the
fact that the speaker is driven to his hist

Women and the Franchise.—. London,
Monday — J udgment r wan given this
morning in the Court of Common Ph*a«,
on the appeal affecting the lights of
women to the electoral franchise. The
Lord Chief Justice and the ocher Jndges
delivered separate judgments, but they all
agreed there was not sufficient authority
for saying that, by the common law,
women bad a right to vote for members
of Parliament; whilst, on the other
hand, there was tin* uninterrupted prac
tice of centuries to show that women had
not voted. The appeal was dismissed.
The Court of Common Piece has de
cided eight or nine cases of appeal, raising
the question us to the right of women to
vote for member, of the Parliament, the
adverse judgment given in the earlier
part of the day being hidd as decisive.
Tiik Glkrgy am* thk Elections.—
There is a general impression that the
country clergy ar»* ‘working” the elec
tions vigorously in the Tory interest.
One or two facts may be cited in support
of this view. In West Stafford*!*ire there
arc twenty-four Oicrgymeu upon tin*
Committee of Messrs. Ingram and Child,
the Tory candidates, while there arc only
two Clergymen on the Committee of
Messrs. Foley and Foster, the Liberal
Candida lea. South Warwickshire affords
a still more remarkable illustration. Not
fewer than thirty-nine Clergymen figure
on the Committee of Messrs Wise and
Hardy, the Tories, while only nine cast
in their lot with the Liberals, Lord Hyde
and Sir Robert Hamilton. And yet these
very Clergymen, who are always to be
found on tne side of restriction and privi
lege, wonder why the working clauses
don’t can* to receive their instructions!

Spain and thk St. Vincent ok Paul
Society. — Pari$ t Friday— A member
of the Society of St. Vincent* de Paul,
suppressed by the Provisional Govern
ment of Madrid, has addressed the fol
lowing letter to the Esjterauza news
paper, published in tbe same capital :
“The decree of the Provisional Gov
ernment dissolving the Conferences of
St. Vincent de Paul is an outrage on the
liberty proclaimed by millions of voices,
from Cadiz to Santander. I, who am as
Liberal as tbe Minister can pos*ibly be,
protest, with all iny force, against this
act; and I demand liberty for all alike,
in accordance with the cry of the Nation.
I have ever been in the ranks of the Pro
gresista party; 1 have served as an
officer of*the National militia;!l have
been a member of Municipalities under
the Government of the Progreststas; and,
finally, in tbe present Revolution. I have
been elected by the Democrats member of
the Provisional Junta. Persuaded as I
am that true liberty cannot be in contra
diction with that which has always been
called charity, I applied to be admitted
into the Conference; I was admitted, and,
for the lost thirteen years, I have con
tributed towards the succor and! consola
tion of the indigent. During these thir
teen year*, I filled theduties of Treasurer,
which has given me die right, and, accord
ing to the regulation* of the Society, im
posed upon me the obligation of interpos
ing in the important affair* of the gov
ernment of the Conferences; and I now
formally declare that the Society of St.
Vincent de Paul doc* not conspire in any
way in political affairs; the member* of
that Society leave politics to them who
have nothing else to do. They do not
conspire, t repeat it, and I shall repeat it
a thousand times; and no Government,
be its denomination what it may, has any
thing to fear from it. 1 say more, you
raav test perfectly sure that no offence,
nothing which is punishable by the Code,
has ever been commended in their meet
ings. I pray you, Mr. Editor, to be good
enough to publish these few lines in the
interest of the sincerity of my opinions,
which have ever been Liberal, and which
the decree above mentioned has so much
offended. Joj*e Gonzalez Reiz.
Those who advised the dissolution of
the Society of St. Vincent de Pool
meant, no doubt, to intimate the proceed
ing of M. de Persigny when he was Min
ister of the Interior some years ago. No
charge whatever has been brought against
the institution, which existed ouly for
charitable purpose*. The Society, which
has been dissolved by the Provisional
Government without any avowabfe* mo
tive, consisted, as in France, of persons
belonging te all political parties, and of
every shade of opinion ; and the Liberals,
who, like M. Goosalo* Ruiz, were mem
bers of it, must find it difficult to explain
the conduct of these who call themanves
men of progras, and wbo prove it by
such an act as tlie suppression of a society
especially establish'd tor tlie relief of the
sick and the indigent.-—TViw*’ Cerres

A Beautiful Extract.^— lt was night.
Jerusalem slept us quietly amid i*r hills
as a child upon the breast of its mother.
The noiseless sentinel stood like a statue
at his post, and the philosopher’s lamp
burned dimly in the recesses of his cham
ber. But a monil darkness involved the
nations in its unlightened shadows. Rea
son shed a faint glimmering over the
minds of men, like the cold and s insuffi
cient shining of u distant star. The im
mortality of man’s spiritual nature was
unknown, his relations unto Heaven un
discovered, and his future destiny ob
sciired in a cloud of mystery. It was
at this period that two forms of ethereal
mould hovered about the land of God’s
chosen people. They came like .sister
angels, sens to earth on some embassy ot
ove. The one of majestic stature and
well-formed limb, which her snowy dra
>ery scarcely concealed, in her erect
>e*ring and Ready eye exhibiting the
lighest degree of strength and confi
dence. Her right arm was extended in an
impressive gesture upward, where night
appeared to have placed her darkest pa
villum; while on her left reclined her de
licate companion, in form and countenance
the contrast of the other. She was drooping
ike a flower moistened by refreshing
dew*, and her bright and troubled eyes
scanned them with ardent but varying
glances. Suddenly, a light, like the sun,
flashed out from the Heavens, and Faith
and Hope hailed, with excitiug songs,
the ascending star of Bethlehem Years
rolled away, and the Stranger was seen
at Jerusalem. He was a meek uuassnm
ing man, whose happiness seemed to
consist in acts of benevolence to the
lurnan race. There were deep traces of
sorrow on His countenance, though no
one knew why he grieved, for He lived
in the praeiioe of every virtue, cnl was
loved by all tlie good and wise, r.
By and by it was rumored that the
Stranger worked miracles, that the blind
saw, that tbe dumb spake, tlie dead arose,
the ocean moderated its chafing tide, the
very thunder articulated, lie was tbe
Son of God. Envy assailed Him to
death. "
Thickly guarded, He slowly ascended
the Hill of Calvary. A heavy croaw bent
Him to tbe earth. But Faith leaned on
His arm, and Hope, dipping her pinions
in Ilis blood, mounted to tbe skies.

frank sentiments and the candor of the
mind arc the exclusive share of tin?
young ; they ornament, oftentimes, old
