Queen Isabella is expected at her residence in Paris—the Hotel Basilewski—towards the middle of the present month. Great indignation is felt in the county of Here ford in consequence of another case of hound poisoning in the North Herefordshire pack, of which Mr. F. Platt, of Sugwas Court, is the master. BREACH OF PROMISE IN HUMBLE Lin:A Sheriffs Court was held at Leeds on Tuesday for assessing damages in two actions for breach of niomiseV marriage and seduction, in which judg- Jnent had been allowed to goby default. The plaintiff. Mary Hannah Asquith a pleasant look- in« girl of 19. lives with her mother, the widow of a farmer, at Featherstone, near Ponteuact. The defendant is the son of a farmer at the same place. The plaintiff said the courtship com- menced about two years ago. anu ^i niui.iacy led to the birth of a child. On the ioth ol },ay defendant saw her, and asked liei L s,ie ^T.S pre- pared to get married, as he was licence. Two days afterwards he manie- woman. On learning what the detenu.1 nu ac done, plaintiff went to him in company 1 -1 aunt. The aunt asked him if it was erne that he had promised to marry her niece, and tie said it was. He said he was very sorry for what he had done, but he had been persuaded to do it. The aunt said, You'll have to pay for it: and the defendant's wife said, "Oh. we can pay. Tho defendant told plaintiff that he was in partner- ship with his father, and his name was on hi« father's cart up to recently, when the and Son" had been removed. In cross-examination, the I plaintiff denied that her mother's house wii; notorious in the village, but she acknowledged that she had been in prison for stealing a diamond pin belonging to a lady in Leeds, in whose servieo she had been, but she said the defendant knew about it, and if he had not wanted her after that he should not have gone after her. After the cusi had been partly heard the part ies,c it-iii to u-nns. and the record was withdrawn. The ph.:i:i accepted f5 as a solatium for the wrongs she ba-i suffered. It was announced at the opening of the courts for Michaelmas term at Westminster, last week, that Mr. Justice Lindley had been placed on the rota of judges for the trial of election petition. daring the ensuiaa rear.

THE QUEEN AND HER HIGHLAND TENANTRY. Dr. Robertson, of Hopewell, who for many rears has held the appointment of commissioner on her Majesty's estate on Deeside, was on Satur- day entertained at dinner at Ballater and pre- ented with a silver salver 68 a memento of the -espect of friends and neighbours on the occasion of his retirement into private life. The Marquis of Huntly made the presentation. Dr. Robertson, n the course of his reply, said: I am unwilling to ake to myself the merits which Lord Huntly has )een pleased to attribute to me. During my lublic life I have simply carried out the wishes of hat illu strioua lady whose servant I had the honour o be. I know that the comfort and the welfare md the prosperity of her tenants always formed ibout the first wish of her heart when in this part )f the country—(cheers)—and to her I think the lonour is due. Whenever an opportunity occurred, vere I to bring forward an instance when a tenant's interests or a tenant's comforts were con- sented, I had but to tell my story to her-for I lad the honour and the privilege of at all times iein« admitted to her presence when I had anv- iliing on business to unfold to her—and I found in ihat^lady a desire—nay, a command was laid upon ne—that the happiness and comfort ot her enants should be promoted. But it is not only with the Queen that I have bad to do. I have tlso at this time the honour of being the servant )f the Prince of Wales, and I can only pay the same tribute to him that I have endeavoured to lo to the Queen-that his first thoughts and his :ommands to me have at all times been to deal iberallv and to the comfort of his tenantry.

GERMANY AND HER FINANCES. (From the Times.) To the German Government the present finan. ;ial difficulties can be only temporary, if they will )ut learn the lesson which those difficulties teach. rhey show that the burdens of the nation are not Tieasured by its debt, nor by the ratio of taxation ;o population. In both these respects, and es- pecially the former, Prussia may be envied by her nearest neighbours. But it is useless to ask how much a man has to pay without also inquiring what ire his means of paying. A numerous population who earn no more than the necessaries of life are more likely to be a burden than a resource to the exchequer. A national debt is only an evil as in- creasing the national expenditure, and many Dther causes may rival it in producing that effect. The maintenance of numerous strongholds, for in- stance, necessary as it may be in some cases as a safeguard against invasion, is a fertile source of unlimited expense. If the national safety impera. Lively requires it, any such burden must be borne, however it may press upon an exhausted people; but in hard times the people will be more dis- posed to inquire curiously into the grounds of the necessity, and less ready to accept the dog- matic statements of great strategists with un. doubting credence. It is possible for a Govern- ment, by strenuously exacting the maximum of taxation from a docile people, to make up a satis- factory balance-sheet, and to point exultingly to the stationary condition and trivial amount of their debt, while they are all the while drying up the stream of revenue at its source. What a nation will submit to pay, and what a due regard for its prosperity would bid its rulers demand, are two very different things. That wealth may grow the people must have the means of saving, and for a Government to strip them of the margin beyond bare necessaries is as though a gardener should sell his fruit trees for firewood to pay his debts. It would be better that Germany should be content to remain for a year or two not quite prepared to meet the world in arms rather than that her citizens should find that the country so impreg- nably fortified offers them no life worth living. A man" does not buy Chubb's locks for his stable- door when his steed is starving.

THE TREATMENT OF HYDROPHOBIA. (From the Standard.) The immediate effect of rendering the life of & dog dependent on its wearing a muzzle, together with an extension of the dog tax so as to include puppies of the tenderest age, would undoubtedly be to cause a decrease in the number of dogs. That, however, need not grieve any one, since it is by no means certain that for the average dog it is better to be alive than not to be alive. It is quite certain that by diminishing the number of dogs we should diminish the amount of hydropho- bia. We might further insist that every dog owner should be held responsible for the conduct of his dog, especially in connection with hydrophobia. Even now it is an offence to keep a dog known to be of savage propensities. Much more, then, should it be regarded as an offence to keep a dog which has been bitten by a dog in a state of rabies, or which has shown premonitory symptoms of rabies, whether the circumstance of its having been bitten has come to the knowledge of its master or not. To many it would not seem strictly equitable to visit upon a man the acts of his mad dog. But there would cer- tainly be fewer examples of hydrophobia if the proprietor of every dog found in that con- dition were fined, or even, in the case of wanton and aggravated offence, sent to prison. In con- 119 nection with hydrophobia, the proverb as to the superiority of prevention to cure is indeed appli- cable; for, within limits, hydrophobia may evi- dently be prevented, while to cure it is still all but impossible. Certain remedies are said to be more or less efficacious; among others curare, which may or may not kill the patient, but which is Bure tobringhim almost to death's door. Hemayrecover from the effect of curare; whereas from hydropho- bia, unless counteracted by this powerful medicine, recovery is said to be absolutely impossible. The value, however, of curare in cases of hydrophobia seems hitherto to have been but little tested; and probably no certain remedy for it will be discovered until something more is ascertained as to the nature of the disease. So little to this moment is known on the HUi ject that, according to some writers, the virus which produces canine rabies has no effect on men who have not already in their blood a poison of another kind. An American physician has boldly declared that hydrophobia can be developed only in persons who have long been addicted to drink, and who thus carry au abundance of alcoholic poison in their veins. Thus regarded, hydrophobia would seem to be a punishment re- served by the irony of fate for those who have not only feared water, but have shown an undue liking for other beverages. Some considerable period will no doubt elapse before our doctors succeed in discovering a cure for hydrophobia. But no time need be lost in taking such measures as we have already suggested for preventing its spread.

LORD HARTINGTON'S LEADERSHIP. (From the Daily New*.) It has always been felt on both sides of the House of Commons that Lord Hartington assumed bhe leadership of the Liberal party there under peculiar and almost unprecedented disadvantages. When Mr. Disraeli was prevailed upon to under- take a similar task for the Conservatives, he had indeed to lead a discouraged and disorganised body. But he was far superior in intellect, political tact, and parliamentary debating power to his pre- decessor, Lord George Bentinck. Lord Harting- ton was invited to lead a party likewise suffering under defeat and discouragement, and he was oalled upon to succeed the greatest statesman and the greatest parliamentary orator of our time. Considering the amount of talking which has to be done by a leader of Opposition in the House of Commons, it is not too much to say that there is not a man living who would not have been an anti- climax if he had to succeed Mr. Gladstone. It is felt on all sides that Lord Hartington got through the duties imposed upon him with remarkable good sense, skill, and success, even when he was newer to them, and even when the sense of con- trast was fresher to the House of Commons, than at present. Some feeling of this kind naturally and properly enters into the estimate which Glasgow as well as the rest of the country forms of Lord Hartington's public career. Lord Hartington on Monday observed that the fact of a man's being able to rise in this country to high political place from the lowliest birth is one reason why another man is regarded without jealousy even though he has come"to the high place chiefly by the accident of birth. The remark is quite true, but it is true also that the absence of such jealousy is to be ascribed in part to the common recognition of the fact that, no matter what a man's birth, he could not now continue to lead a purty in the House of Commons if he did not prove himself equal to tho real duties of the place. Lord Hartington has thus far justified the choice of his party. We do not know whether it would be fair to expect of any party leader now such utter devotion as that of Lord George Bentinck, who, accord- ing to his friend and biographer, never could be induced to eat his dinner until the House had ad journed for the night. Such self-tormenting and literal fidelity to the routine of duty is hardly to be asked or desired. But the work of leadership ia at the best and of necessity exacting. It uo- mands much denial of self and constallt nights of long labour. He who gives up for it an easy and pleasant existence, and faithfully tries to dis- charge its responsible duties, deserves assuredly the praise of both political parties, and the thanks I jf the impartial public.

DKATH OF A LADY FROM INHALING ETHEP. — An extraordinary death from the medical ad- ministration of ether was investigated by the Lincoln Coroner on Tuesday evening. Miss Annie Elizabeth Steele, daughter of the late Capt. Steele, 10th Lancers, was about to undergo an operation for cancer in the breast. Half an ounce of ether was applied in an inhaler by Dr. Mitchinson. After drawing three or four inspirations the unfortunate lady expired, notwithstanding that every effort was'made by the three medical men present to restore consciousness by cold water and lubricants. A post-mortem examination showed that death had resulted from failure of the heart's action and the diseased condition of the lungs and diaphragm. AI.R,EN);:N FELONY BY A COMMISSION AGENT.— At the Bristol Police-court, on Monday, John Crawshaw, travelling commission agent, living at St. Paul's road, London, was charged with steal- ing three cheques, of the value of £ 10 and up- wards, the property of Mr. Edward Riley, flag and banner mauufacturer, Provident street Mill, Leeds. The cheques were forwarded by prose- cutor's wife to the Waverley Hotel, Victoria street, and the letter containing them was placed upon the mantel-shelf of the commercial room. The prisoner had called at the hotel several times asking for a Mr. Wilson," but the letter was not missed until Mr. Riley returned home, when he caused inquiries to be made, which led to the pri- SOller s apprehension, it having been ascertained that he had purchased watches at Sir J. Bennett's, Cheapside. London, and paid for them with the missing cheques. Police-sergeant McCrae, of the Gloucestershire police, apprehended the accused at Cheltenham, and found upon him a letter from Sir John Bennett's, acknowledging the receipt of the cheques in payment for the watches. The prisoner said he did not steal the cheques, but he admitted receiving them knowing them to have been stolen. He was remanded for a week. Lord Wolverton addressed a meeting of the Shaftesbury Agricultural Society on Wednesday, Oct. aist, and made a speech, in which he expressed his belief in au early return of the Liberals to office.
