j,.i,.rERARY AND ART GOSSIP.
j,.i,.r ART GOSSIP. (From the Athevrrum.) The Eastern Question is being fought out on the slopes of Parnassus. On one side are arrayed Mr. Browning, Mr. Morris, Mr. Burne Jones, Mr. Carlyle; on the other, Mr. Swinburne, who is now en^ged upon a pamphlet the teaching of whioh is not at all that of Mr. Carlyle's letter. A new work, by the author of" Uncle Tom's Cabin,' entitled, Footsteps of the Master," will shortly be published by Messrs. Sampson Low and Co. The annual by the authors of "The Coming K will not be published till after Christmas. The title is H- upon E-j or, the Modern Inferno." Slang plays so large a part in the dialogue of modern womedy, there is little cause for wonder at its finding its way into t>e title. "Oil Pals" is the name Mr. Byron has bestowed upon a comic drama in prepara- tion at the Opéra Comique, to which house he and the company formerly with him at the Gaiety have now migrated. (From the Academy.) Captain Richard F. Burton is about to publish with Messrs. R. Bentley and Son •• Sind Revisited," the result of another journey into Western India. We understand that ihe first volume of Mr. Herbert Spencer's "Principles of Sociology" is completed, and may be looked for before Christmas. It will form the sixth volume cf the Synthetic Philosophy.

He says now he went out wi hthe full intention of cutting the throat. of a girl named Bell.

CAPTAIN N A EES AND SC'RVY.
CAPTAIN N A EES AND SC'RVY. The special report drawn up hy Captain Nares on the oulbreak of scurvy during thp Arctic exploration, says the Loud n correspondent- of the Leeds Mercury, will, I believe, be issued shortly. As I have already had occasion to tell you, it will entirely exonerate Sir George from any blame in connection with the dis- temper, so far a- preventive cautions are concerned. But, on the other hand, I have reason to expect that the report will by no means satisfy thtl mind of thc public, or altogether reassure those who hold the opinion that there was mismanagement somewhere.The stroag point upon which Sir George Nares bases his defence is tiiat a substitute for lime-juice will have to he found, inasmuch as the cordial in question freezes to the consistency of stone, and becomes to that extent an useable. From what I hear, this defence will not be accepted, and Mr. Ward Hunt w 11 have a bad quarter of an hour of itwhen the quest ion is brought, as I un- derstand it is to be, before Parliament.
CAUTIuN TO PUBLICANS.
CAUTIuN TO PUBLICANS. At the Runcorn Police-court, John Longshaw Jones, a publican, has been summoned for permitting an un- lawful game to be playtdin his house, to wit, a game of chance with dice.—The defendant said he had lost his summons. Superintendent Steensaid he had found it in Father Daly's wardrobe when searcliirg the pre- mises.—Mr. Jones was one of the witnesses for Father Daly at the inquest in the Manchester poisoning case. -It was proved that the defendant raffled for a game dealer some braces of pheasants.&c., oil Saturday night, the 2nd inst.—Mr. Bremner. who defended, contended that the game was rot illegal, and that the Act under which the defendant was summoned was passed for the suppression of German lotteries.- Mr. Daglish. the chairman, said the bench took a different view of the case, and inflicted a penalty of £ 1 10s. with 19s fid costs.-J ameR Marsh, beerhouse keeper, was summoned for a. like offence, and was fined £ 1 and Cl costs.—Mr. Daglish said in future all persons summoned for this class of offence would have their licences endorsed.
SEIZURE OF TOBACCO BY THE…
SEIZURE OF TOBACCO BY THE EXCISE. At the Ongar Pettj Sessions, Alfred Thompson, traveller, in the employ ot Daniel Davis and Son, tobacco manufacturers, of 3R(), Oxford-street, has been brought up in custody charged with hawkingtobacno without a licence at High Ongar on the 8th instant.—Jsmes Taylor, an officer of excise, residing at Shelley, said on the lith he saw the prisoner being driven in a light spring van. He paw him stop at the Two Brewers public house. High Ongar, and followed hitr in. He asked th. landlady if she wanted any tobacco, and she replied that she did not He then asked her if she wanted any cigars. and said he would fetch some to shew her. He did so. and sold her a box. The witness Taylor then asued him if he had got some cigars of a certain brand, to which he re- plied in the negative. He then asked him if he had any good bird's eye." He said he had, and sold the officer 111b. for 4s. 4d. The officer then followed him into the street, arrested him. and also seized the horse and van and its contents, containing a large quantity of tobacco and cigars. In defence the prisoner said he was not aware that he was infringing the law. Mrs. Davis, of the firm of Davis and Son. was present, and stated that she was not, aware that there was any in- fringement of the law. They had carried on the same system of sending out goods for the last 50 years. The goods were for regular customers, who took so much every time they were called upon, and bills accom- panied each parcel of gocds.—The officer, Taylor, said he saw no goods with bills attached to them.- The mitigated penalty of 125 was then imposed, and the whole "ontents of the van ordered to be con- nseated.—Mrs. Davis said she was not in a position to pay the money.—The prisoner was then committed for three months, in default, and was removed by the excise officer to Springfield Gaol.
ALLEGED LIBEL ON "CREMORNE."
ALLEGED LIBEL ON "CREMORNE." At the Old Bailey, John Robert Goonell has been indicted for unlawfully and maliciously publishing a defamatory lihe], in writing, of and concerning John Baum. Mr. Poland, with Mr. Avory, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Straight for the defence.—Edwin Andrew Armour paid he was in the employ of the proprietor of the Chelsea New. (Mr. Russell), and the defendant came to the office of that papier and produced the pamphlet in question. He askiStl that it should be inserted in the Chelsea News, and, at the request of witness, it was left in an envelope for the editor.— Mr. Russell, the editor, proved reading the pamphlet, and that, finding it libellous, he did not insert it.—Mr. Avory (clerk of arraigns) read the libel, which consisted of a doggrel account in rhyme of The Trial of John Fox, or Fox John, or the Horrors of Cr-m- rne." the effect of which was really that the proprietor of Cremorne" (Mr. Baum) allowed the premises, of which he wis the lessee, to be resorted to by females of loose character.—John Baum said he was the lessee of Cremorne-gardens he had read th? libel and believed it referred to him.—Bv Mr, Straight: Hundreds of respectable middle-class people with their wives and families, stayed there until half-past twelve. The bands that played on the platform were verj skilful bauds. There were some loose women who came after ten, and he raised the price to 2s. to keep it respectable. Did not know that during the summer months it was the place of resort for loose women after ten. There might be more at the Crystal Palace.—Mr. Straight, in defence, said he would leave the evidence of Mr. Baum in the hands of his lordship. The libel was thr.t Cremorne-gardens allowed the young people of both sexes to meet together at their risk, that married men were induced to forsake their domestic life, and that there was no end of evil that did not result from visiting C'cmome.— The jury found the pri.-oner guilty, and he was sentenced to one month's imprison- ment without hard labour.
THE LATE MR. DAVID FORBES.
THE LATE MR. DAVID FORBES. The funeral of the late Mr. David Forhes. F.R.S. has taken place at Kensal-green Cemetery. Among those present were the president and ex-president of the Geological Society the president of the Chemical Society thedirector-general of the Geological Survey; Professor W. Smyth, Crown Inspector of Mines Professor Maskelyne.of the British Museum the Rev. T. Wiltshire, co-secretary of the Geological Society W th Mr. Forbes; Mr. W. S. Dallas, the editor of the society's Journal Professor Morris, &c. Mr. Forbes's death took place unexpectedly. Born in 1828. he was in his 48th year, but in his comparatively short life he had crowded in an immense amount of v-ork. Like his d-stingnished brother, the late Professor Edward who died at the still earlier age of ;!9, he has accumulated a vast store of original informa, tion the result of personal investigation, of which, un- fortunately, there is small chance the world will reap the benffit. As a geologist, a chemist, and a mineralogist,he was distinguished, and having travelled extensively his c Elections were large. Dr. Wilson, in his life of Edward Forbes, speaks of the love of travel that characterised his family. The immediate paternal ancestors of Forbes were most of them characterised by great activity and energy. The men in particular were fond of travel, fond of society, and social pleasures. One uncle died in Demerara, another in Surinam, and a third travelled far into Africa. A love of roving runs in the blood of the Manx Forbeses." One of Mr. Forbes's brothers was drowned in Australia, and another was accidentally killed in America. The tacts of the descent of the Forbes family from Sir John Forbes of Watertown, and the settlement of one branch in the Isle of Man, where the father of Edward and David was a hanker, are familiar to the public through Dr. Wilson's memoir of Professor E.Forbes. By profes- sion the late Mr. Forbes was a consulting engineer. He was elected a fellow of the Geological Society in 1853, and of the Royal Society in 185(i. He was also a Fellow of the Chemical Society. The Iron and Steel Institute, founded in 1809, owes much of its success to his work for, being an accomplished linguist, he, as foreign secretary, prepared the half-yearly reports on foreign iron and steel industries, which were exhaustive accounts of everything done all over the world in connection with the iron trade. He never published any book, but his papers contributed to societies are valuable. One of his most important valuable geological papers was on '■ The Geology of Bolivia and South Peru," and another was the Relation of the Salurian aud Metamc-rphic Rook of South Norway."

VARIOUS NOTES.
VARIOUS NOTES. (From the Examiner.) AIM poor Henrietta I knew her well-she was a fellow of infinite plasticity and no back bone. Her hands were the wonder of her age, and the friends flhe m;1.r1e and the position she held are written in the chronicle. of Society. And new it aopearg that the millitisr has at last been too much for her. and that she can't pay a farthing in the pund. Husband she. ha* none, but her friend* are moved with compassion, and have been to see her brother, to urge him to come for- ward to avert the blow. Her brother, haying heard that she has no money, no ■■■><■< .to nnd no capacity for begging, has taken the sad cage into con- sideration. declared hit readiness to be indulgent, and a-kei, If I mike her an advance what security can iheefwel" When brothers do thus it is enough to make one believe in fathers. A certain young gentleman, next of kin and heir to his uncle. an elderly bachelor, has for some time con- ?idered that the said uncle is the most outrageously mean man that ever existed. The boy has bet-n brought- up as a civil engineer, but all that profession lias been in his case a failure, he has more than once hinted that his uncle might give him a portion of that fortune which will one day pass into his hands. Yet all these hints have led to no result. The reduced youth has now hit upon a very novel plan A few days since he pre sented himself at the Patent Office, and informed the clerk in charge that he wished to patent a wonderful article, "the most perfect screw ever produced." 80, being provided with the necessary forms, he sat down and wrote out as a preliminary specification an exact description of his uncle. The question of granting letters patent rests with her Majesty's Attorney- General. If the application is successful he will enjoy the sole right of manufacturing and selling his uncle for tl-e next fourteen years; but it will still be open far any other young gentleman to obtain a patent if he can discover a greater or more perfect screw. People read the papers all day and all night, and then never see what i.o in them. So it is that many of those who have skimmerl the Gazette of bankrupts, and seen in it the name of Mr. Edward T. Delafield, will hardly remember that this was onoe a partner in the great brewing firm of Comhe, Delafield and Co., who left the firm with £ 100.000 to become the lessee of Covent-garden Opera. This naturally occasioned him the expenditure of a large part of his aglOO,000 and did not permanently benefit the Opera, until from the aihes ot Delafield arose Gye, the present enterprininp impresario. Lord Alington does not seem to have been blessed with fine weather duiing the Premier's visit to his little house at Crichel, albeit he engaged an Italian street-band from the neighbouring watering-place of Bournemouth wherewith to amuse the new-made Earl. Tlrs and other delights possibly compensated for the dampness of the coverts. A recent number of the New York Nation mentions a fact which shews how deeply the influence of Dr. Busby, that "very great man," who whipped Dryden, Locke, and Sir Roger de Coverley's grandfather, im- pressed itself on the imagination of his pupils and their posterity. It appears that this prince of peda- gogues figured in a children's game of cards, not many years obsolete, in the United States, if it be indeed wholly obsolete. Such a profanation is enough to make the two generations of Englishmen whom Busby birched turn with indignation in their graves. One of the remarks made by Prince Bismarck, and that not the least important, has not been reported. We learn that he said with some degree of emphasis that temptations had been addressed to Germany which held out baits to her in the sense of self-interest and ambition, but that all apprehensions of an ac. ceptanee of these offers would be allayed by the clearest proofs." This was understood by those pre- sent to refer to Russia,although it would appear that the reference may have been to Italy. Anyhow, it is said to have caused an exchange of significant communications between the Russian Embassy and the Cabinet of St. Petersburg, and a remonstrance is said to have been addressed to the too frank and genial talker. Hence, in his speech in the Reichstag, while Prince Bismarck spoke of the ticklish position" in which the German Government would be placed if they were "atked by any of their friends to shew their love by hating the rest," lie affirmed that I. up to the present no such request had been made."
"MAN ABOUT TOWN."
"MAN ABOUT TOWN." (From the Sporting Gazette.) A propo8 of Arctic dinners, each of the gallant tars at the dinner given by the Lord Mayor was presented with an ounce of cut Cavendish. I wonder where his lordship got that tobacco. Dominie Samp.on would have pronounced it pro-dig-i-ous! It completely knocked those Arctic mariners out of time, and, as one of them pathetically remarked to me, You could neither smoke it nor chew it." I hope the officers fared better. Mr. Millais, I hear, was offered £ 20,000 to paint the great picture of the Delhi Durbar, but declined,by which happy refusal the Government saves for Mr. Val Prinsep, who takes Mr. Johnson, of the Graphic, with him to assist him, has undertaken to pajnt the pictuie for f 5.000. Mr. Prinsep's family have been long and honourably oonnectect with India, and it was that circumstance which induced Lord Lytton to offer the work to him. The Government, by the way, has definitely declined to have anything to do with the prop >sed" Indian and Colonial Museum which was to be erected on the Embankment. Some ridiculous canards have been circulated to the effect that Mr. Grant has beer. blackballed at Lincoln' Inn and the Middle Temple. There is no such thing as blackballing a student at any of the Innii of Court. There is no power which can prohibit any person in the world from entering as a student of an Inn. It is competent to the Benchers to decline to call an objectionable student to the bar, but they cannot prevent him from becoming and remaining a member of the Inn. And why should they object to call Mr. Grant? I have never heard that either private morality or public virtue was an essential qualification of "gentlemen of the long robe." Indeed. a gay and witt\ serjeant, who, like Dryden's Bacchus, may be described as"eyer fair and tver young," once remarked of a highly moral judge,who died at the comparatively early age of IiI, Ah I always said ifamanwould persist in leading sueh a very regular life, sooner or later it would fird him out. We are told on hijjh authority that a "vir- tuous woman is above rnhiel." to which a cynic once replied, Ah but not ah diamonds, perhaps." In corr.ection with the recent floods I have a good story with which. I think. I may appropriately wind np a somewhat wateiy lucubration. A country gentle- man living near Oxford had occasion i-ecodt,lyto engage a new butler. Among the applicants was one with the very highest testimonials, and strongly recommended by an acquaintance of the gentleman's. A persona) interview was arranged, but somehow,notwithstanding the undeniable proofs of respectability and unimpeach- able witnesses to character tendered by the applicant, the gentleman took a violent dinlike to the new butler's appearance. There was something in the man's face and manner which produced a strong feeling of averkion in him, but he could not tell him this, and he was at his wit's end to know how to frame an excuse for declining his services. At last a brilliant idea struck him. After a series of inquirie" had elicited a series of most satisfactory replies, and there seemed to be absolutely no flaw in the man's character, the master asked gravely, C-tn you swim ?" Well, no, sir, I can't,"was the reply of the unsuspect- ing butler. "Ah! then," said the master, shaking his head, "Imafraid you won't do for me. In this neighbourhood the fleods are out for nine months out of the twelve,and my butler, as a rule, has to dive into the cellar for every bottle of wine I drink. A man who could not swim would be uieless to me. Good' morning." I am told that Mdlle. Chaumont was expostulating upon Engliiih prudery the other day with a man well known in town as a wit, and asking in her pretty way, with many shrugs of the shoulder, why English people should object to seeing their immorality satirised on the stage. Ah, mademoiselle," was the reply. "you forget it is already done in the Divorce Court. In Franoe you like your pictures of immorality disguised under a colouring of wit and fancy in E.ijjland we like to see then: in their naked indecencyin the Divorce Court. That's the differ ence." And it is so. English society is just as immoral as French iiociety.but it likes '\le real thing better than the stage imitation.

LONDON GOSSIP.
LONDON GOSSIP. (From the Court Journal) Thetrnmp card of the Government nert f.e<*sion, so far as domestic legislation is concerned, will, it is said, be a measure dealing with the app inti-nent and jurisdiction of the unpaid magistrates, and with the method of proceeding in our local courts. The saying of every man on lw).,ti-d the transport St. Lawrence is said to be entirely dun to the spletv did discipline observed by the troops, who behaved in a manner recullinj the story of the loss of the Bir kenhead, when the soldiers *tood to arms on deck, and j went down in unbroken lines. The 3rd Buffs, who | were on board the St. Lawrence when she struck on the Paternosters, behaved with equal coolness and j attention to orders, and no doubt to this fine exhibi- tion of discipline is to he attributed the immunity from lossof life. The 3rd Buffs were stationed for some tims at H o field, and had the reputation of being in as perfect a state of effi iencv as any regiment in tho sei viee. Colonel Pearsoa, their commanding offieer, is P. fill" soldier, a. ttrict disciplinarian, a man whe has his heart in his work; and all who had the privi- lege of meeting him while he was statioaed in Bristol will be prepared to hear that, lie and hi. brltve regiment behaved "s coolly during the exciting moments of tho wreck as if t,liev had been on parade in the exercise {[round at FIoi field. The freehold of Holland House, in reversion at least, has lat.>]}" eha-hands. The connection be. tw.-eii that grand lii.-foric old mansion which so long divided willi Devonshire Home the honour of being tho headquarters of the Whig party and the hmily of Fox, is not about to be dissevered. On contrary, it is about only to be renewed and lengthened. Lady Holland, who at present holds a life interest in it, is not really a. Fox by birth, but only by marriage and adoption, so to speak, and the reversion of the estate has been purchased by Lord Ilehester, who is really a Fox (though he calls himself Fox Strangwa} s).and whose father was a cousin of the late Lord Holland. In fact,the first Lord kLolland and the first Lord Ilehester were brothers. A deputation from the City will before long be pre- sented to Lord Derby, who, it is understood, has already consented to receive it. A document testifying to the confidence of the elector? of the City of London in the policy pursued by Lord Derby is in course of signa- ture, and it is expected that fully three-fifths of those on the roll will place then names to it. This dooument will be conveyed by the deputation and presented to Lord Derby at the Foreign Office. It was notorious that the last deputation did not represent the feelings of the majority, and their uproarious conduct at White- hall did not advance their cause in the estimation of their fellow citizens. The present Mayor of Boston (Mr. Maltby) was one of the persons scheduled in the report of the Bosten Election Commission as having been guilty of corrupt practices at the last Boston election. It is now oon- tended by some of his political opponents that he is disqualified for the office which he at present holds, and eleven notices have been served upon him demand- ing payment of f.50 for each occasion on which he has fulfilled the duties of his otfi -o GOSSIP FROM THE WHITEHALL REVIEW." There will shortly be a vacancy among the Queen's lides-de eamp by the intended promotion of Colonel »he Honourable F. A. Thesiger, C.B., to the rank of Major-General. Captain Burnaby, who left England three weeks ago for the East, has no intention of reposing on the laurels he has already obtained by his book on Khiva. He has gone to Constantinople, and intends to visit Bulgaria, with the object of investigating the accuraoy of Mr. Schuyler's statements, and collecting material for a now volume respecting the atrocities. I have seen a letter from II. gentleman in Dublin- a native of that pleasant capital—to a friend in London. The writer describes a musical entertainment which took place at the Royal Barracks last week. He speaks of the Duke of Conn aught, and says that his Royal Highness sat down to the piano, arid played exceedingly well several difficult pieces upon it, "just as any other man might do." We understand that her Majesty has resolved to reside during a great part of the next seasen at Buckingham Palace, and that a series of entertain- ments on a very large scale will be given there both before and after Easter. Owing to the Eastern Ques- tion and other matters, people are likely to come early to town next year and it is probable that the first week in February will see London nearly as full as it ordinarily is at the beginning of June. A certain Irish peer who figured last week at co-respondent in the Divorce Court is said to be in a difficulty. He is ready and willing to marry the lady, but the laws of his Church-he being not only a Roman Catholic but a convert to that creed-forbid him to do so. Unless the injured husband has the good taste to die, the lady from whom he has been divorced is, in the eyes of the Catholic Church, his wife, and no one belonging to that Church can marry her. I understand we are likely to have a new hat foi the nsale sex introduced among us during the next London season. It is to be in shape something like that now worn, but lower in the crown and broader in the brim. The material of which it is to be made will not be silk, but black felt, the same as the"pot hats and billycooks now so much worn. If, as it is said, the Prince sets us the example of wearing a head dress that will not spoilwith rain, his popularity, great as it now is, will be increased four-fold.

A Lloyd's telegram states that the two missing boatBofthe screw steamer Woodham have safely ar- rived, one at Lisbon and the other at St. Ubes, with the captain and remainder of the ship's company. We (Standard) have reason to believe that some misapprehension exists as to the effect of the recent order regarding military pensioners. It applies, we understand, solely to the workmen employed by the War Department who were discharged in great num- bers with pensions some two or three years ago, and many of whom have been since taken on to the per- manent establishment. From 15 to 18 persons have been more or less seriously injured in an accident which occurred to the 6.20 train from Edinburgh to Haddington. It appears that the engine became detached from thJ train, ran down a steep' incline at tremendous speed, and ran into a. goods train which was being shunted at the Leith Walk goods station. The guard, who either jumped from his van or was thrown from it, ia not expected to recover from his hurts.
