LITERARY AND ART GOSSIP.
LITERARY AND ART GOSSIP. (From the Atliemet'in.) In the next number of the Fortnightly Rerieic will appear the first of two articles by Prof. Cairnes on Mr. Herbert Spencer's Theory of Social Evolution, and also a reply, by the author of "Supernatural Religion," to criticisms of Canon Lightfoct. Supernatural Religion is now said to be by Mr. Pusey, a nephew of Dr. Pusey. In an article on a French biographical dictionary, a con- temporary seems to express wonder at Mr. «. h. Baxter, I M.P., and Mr. Henry Cole being described, among other things, as literary men. Mr. Baxter has pubhsned enough to give him. we think, a claim to the title, and Mr. Cole, under the name of Felix Summcrley, wrote, in his early years, a number of works full of charm. The Almanach de Goilla, which appeared on Monday last, contains an amusing misprint. The Vice-President of the Council of India appears as "Sr Bartle, frere." A statue to Auber is to be erected m one of the public places of Caen, by subscription, aided by funds of the Socicte des Beaux-Aita, the Conseil General, and tho wn. A new comedy, in five acts. by Mr. Albery, will be the next novelty at the Olympic Theatre. ————
,NEEDLESS DISASTERS AT SEA.
NEEDLESS DISASTERS AT SEA. The lamentable casualties to snipping which crowd npon one another in the newspapers supply painful confirmation to the charges brought by Mr. Plimsoll. The Board of Trade have, or have had, in hand several cases of iron ships that have foundered at sea owing to defective structure or overloading, as in the case of the Viceroy, of Hull, a vessel of 1,134 tons gross and 934 tons re^ gister, which was sent to sea with between 1,300 and 1,400 tons of cargo, by which twenty-three men lost their lives. In another case, that of a wooden ship which went down head foremost in the German Ocean, the Court of Enquiry found that the cause of the loiswas also excess of deadweight cargo. Another vessel, copper laden, is re- ported wrecked in South American waters, nineteen of her crew perishing through her boats being in an unsafe state at a critical moment, a far from unusual condition on shipboard. That was also, it may be re- membered, the case of the La. Plata and it has since been alleged that she, too, was overloaded, on the authority of the boatswain and quartermaster, who were rescued after three days' exposure on an air raft. This has, however, been denied by those responsible for her safety, but on that and other points the public await the result of the investigation which must take place. With regard to the loss of the screw steamer Chusan, which crumpled up at the entrance in Ardrossan harbour, last month, the Board of Trade informs the owner that from the report of the Court of Inquiry on the shipwreck, and from the evidence given before the Court, the Board are that the conclusion may be drawn that vessels of the Chusan class are not safe and seaworthy for an ocean voyage from this country at all seasons of the year." The Board trust that the owner will not overlook this expression of opinion as it may be their duty to interfere, under the Acts of 1871 and 1873. with the attempted sailings of similar vessels from ports of the United Kingdom, on long voyages, unless commenced at seasons when there is a reasonable' prospect of the vessels arriving at their des- tinations without encountering very heavy weather during the passage." It would be difficult to say in what sort of sea or weather it would be safe to trust the lives of men and valuable merchandise with such crank and wholly un- seaworthy craft as, for instance, the Mary, the enquiry into the loss of which, in the Bay of Biscay, was noticed and commented upon in our last.—iron.
THE" SHAKERS " AND THEIR TROUBLES.
THE" SHAKERS AND THEIR TROUBLES. The special correspondent of the Daily News, in a lengthy account of the ejectment proceedings, thus des- cribes the habits of the Shaker Community New Forest Lodge is on the reclaimed common which stretches from Christchurch Beach to Breckenstand, and ia surrounded by the cottages of one or two hamlets. Before turning out of the high road to-day we could see the cliff of Alum Bay and the Needles; and trees along the road, all leaning landward shewed how near we were to the sea. The sheriff's men did their work well, and, after the invariable habit of their kindred, destroyed nearly everything they touched. For a quarter of a mile the goods were cast down without the slightest regard to their character. Straw, hay, beans, taggots filled the trench under the hedge. The furniture, new and old, great and small, lay, and lies there still, in a confused ridge along both sides of the road broken pictures, disjointed tables and chairs, burst linen presses, cracked looking-glasses, books, and wearing apparel are promiscuously shot one upon the other. A neighbouring farmer sent his waggon to save some of the property, and I ventured to suggest to one of the Brethren that the goods would be better for removal. No, Sir," he said, let the law take its course. They have thrust us forth, and here we will stay. What is the use of Christianity, if it does not glTe strength to bear affliction ?" And this I found to be the prevailing sentiment of every brother and sister with whom I conversed. They could give you chapter and verso for it, and ended as they began by.181 pleasant smile and a devout We are the Lord's and He is ours." Some of the men looked hungry, as they must needs look if their tale of severe privation is a true one. Meagre vegetable diet has, they say, been their daily fare for many weeks. There were about hnH-a-dozen women and girls in the road amongst the wreckage. All wore petticoats no lower than the knee, and the trousers of the other sex with a triplet scolloped work at the bottom. Their hair hung loosely and somewhat wildly down the back otherwise they were dressed as well-to-do artisan folks. It was not easy to entice a sister into con- versation, but the brethren were eloquent when once set going. Two or three I should have set down as Ameri- but they assured me that every member was English. An elderly brother told me a tale of his conversion by Mrs. Girling's preaching, of his dispositing of his Suffolk farm, and his unswerving belief in Mrs. Girling, and the near advent of the Messiah. Scriptural phrases thickly interlarded the brother's conversation, and he was ecstatic in his expressions of resignation and faith. A fair, consumptive-louking young man, and whom I afterwards found was his son, stood by to confirm all he said. Thus, the old man would exclaim, The Lord called me, and I went!" Ah, that you did," exclaimed the other; we are in Christ's fold," whereupon the 8 in, shivering in the cold, and touching a broken blind roller with his foot, said, Wo are so. This may seem food for amusement as written, but as spoken there was an earnestness and quiet- ness, a philosophic 1 style of thought and language about the speakers, which forbade a smile. An intellectual look- ing brother, who, like the rest, wore his hair pretty long behind his ears, and was plainly and comfortably dressed in a wide-awake hat and cloth garments, had no objec- tion to my seeing Mrs. Girliug, but drove me to the barn, where, with Miss Wood, and the rest of the women she has taken up her abode in a little mudwalled cottage. A Couple of brothers were waiting, and the mudwalled cot- tage was our hall of audience. There was a fragrant wood fiie blazing on the hearth, and oomfoltaOle it indeed was, with the wind howling in the garden trees outside, nnd shrieking down the wide chimdey place. Luckily for the Bible Christians there has been nothing here like the snowfall we had in London hut the fiost issevere. Mrs. Girling was fetched from the barn, and came down by the cabbage beils, accompanied by a couple of sisters, who lookel in their peculiar costume more like men thiin women. The mother herself wore long skirts, and might or might not set t'le example which the yeunger sisters followed. Mrs. Girling is a hi1, thin, flashing-eyed woman, of ap- parently between 50 and CO yonis of age, and to her brothers and sisters aliUc paid homage. Oloe of the mell held up the small paiafiin lamp wi.ii;h lighted the apart- ment, and mother dear" was ask<nl in subdued tones of affectionate entreaty to sit in the chimney corner. «ith tha shadows of the oak log flickering on our laces, w.>, perhaps a dozen in all, listened to her opinions a.'it statements.

LONDON GRAIN TRADE REPORT, FRMAT. -The coli weather has cau ed more firmness to prevail in the wheat trade and prices, without being actually h'giier, have had a hardening tendency. Supplies have not been excessive, but it seems verv doubtful whether aDy advance of importance will take place, even if the frost continue. Of late, imports have been falling off, f\WI11V, to the low pricf 8 current here, but there is no doubt that a slight improvement in our market would attract plent iful sup- plies, nieai.wh'le nesriy a million and a half qrs are on passage.

fROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. LONDON, FK ID AY EVENING. The House of Lords has lost two of its members, Lord Kesteven, and Lord Sondes. Lord Kestevcn vas the first Baron, and ia better known to the world as Sir John Trollope. He was born May 5, 3800, and at the early age of twenty-five was High Sheriff for Lincolnshire. In 1841 he came forward as a candidate for the Southern Division of that cbunty as a Protectionist, and was returned second on the poll, beating the Liberal candidate, Mr. Henry Handley, 'by 1,604 votes. In 1847 he was re-elected without a contest, and,on the formation of the first Derby-Diaraeli Administration, was appointed Chief Commissioner of the Poor Law Board. Re-elected with trouble in July, 1852, he had to fight for his seat in 1857, but was returned at the head of the ipoll, the defeated Liberal candidate, Mr. George Hussey Packe, being 832 votes behind him. In 1859 the representation was divided between Sir John Trollope and Mr. Packe, and the truce wa." mamtamed at the general election of 1865. In 1868 Sir John was raised to the peerage. He is now succeeded in it by his son, who was fcorn in 1851, and who will, therefore, .be one of the youngest peers in the House of Lords. Sir Charles Trollope, K.C.B., Colonel of :the 53rd Foot, ia a brother of the late Lord Kesteven. Lord Sondes, who has also just died, was born in January, 1794. He is the second eon of Lewis Watson, 2nd Baron, and assumed his mother's name of Milles. He was in the Horse- guards and served in the Peninsular War. He succeeded his brother in the barony of Sondes (which dates from 1760) in 1836. He married a daughter of Sir Edward KnatchbuII, and by her had one son and five daughters, one of whom is Countess of Courtown. His son and successor, the Hon. George Milles, was first brought forward for East Kent at the general election of 1868, and was returned second on the poll, another Conserva- tive, Mr. Leigh Pemberton, being first, and Mr. Tufton and Sir John Croft being the defeated Jjibeval candidates. At the late general election, Kir Henry Tufton (as he had then become) was brought foryard again, but was beaten by nearly 1,100 votes, Mr Milles being at the head of the poll. Milles, now Baron Sondes, is in his fifty-first year, and married a daughter of Sir HellryStracey who was elected for Norwich in 1868, and subse- quently unseated. Mr. Murray is advertising the hundred and twenty-fifth thousand of Mr. Gladstone's pamphlet on the "V atican, and the Roman Catholics are still ebusing it. The Weekly Register, for instance, Scoffs this week at the idea that Gladstone is consistent. "Time was when, as member for Newark, he was reviewed by Macaulay in the Edinburgh as the rising hope of the fttern and unbending Tories Then, in- deed, those memorable words were applied to him in consequence of his having just appeared, fcefore the world as the author of a book about Church and State.' Now, at the opposite ex- emity of his career, when he has run wild to the {Uttermost, he appears before the world with a very jdifferent treatise indeed, though upon a kindred Jfcheme a treatise on the very front of which, so (to speak, the titles are reversed. It is with him "0 longer Church and State—it ia State and Church—the State above the Church, the Church Subordinated to, and, if possible, completely Spflastered by the State." Now, this is fm eminently unfair charge. It 18 true Mr. Glad- StJne sees that practically the Church is subordi- iaate to the State; but he used all his powers last Session to give the Church the utmost freedom, anore freedom 0 than the majority of Englishmen tvere ready to give, more freedom than the Roman Church allows to its children, or would permit to the State if it had the repressive power. I did not judge wrongly when I said that the life of the Prince Consort would be a very popular Ifcook. The first edition is already sold; not a copy is to be had. A new edition is being prepared. ffhe publishers seem to be surprised at the Vapid sale. • Mrs. Eiliott, wife of the Dean of Bristol, has a jiovel in the press, which will be published in January by Messrs. Hurst and Blackett it is called" The Italians." Mrs, Elliott, before her jnarriage with the Dean, was known in literary circles as Mrs. Dickinson, that being the name of Sier first husband. There had been a divorce, and »Ir. Dickinson was alive at the time that Dean (Elliott married her. The denn will be remembered na the reputed author of a very good joke. When Ellicott was appointed Bishop of Gloucester antI Bristol, a good many persons, misreading the name, congratulated Dean Elliott on his promo- tion,but he replied that it was a "c" (see) too many for liim. A man who accuses others should himself be blameless. The Rev. E. M. Chaplin lately wrote jto the Bishop of London, calling attention to the fact that Bishop Colenso had been allowed to frreach at Balliol Chapel, Oxford, and calling upon the Biahop,as Visitor of the College, to rebuke this feet of lawlessness (anomia). It appears that (Mr. Chaplin is a member of the" Confraternity Sif the Blessed Sacrament," which, among other hings,declares that there are seven sacraments, and |khat the Eucharistic Elements ought to be reserved, Sdoreover, when on the Continent Mr. Chaplin, as jp correspondent of the Rock alleges, refused to go the services of the English Church and, de- ]elaring that her bishops had no jurisdiction abroad, (he prefers to go to Roman Catholic services. One of the most singular parts of the Shakers* Relief is overlooked by most of the papers. They teach the Trinity in funny fashion. There is, they ■jay, both Fatherhood and Motherhood in the aDtiity. The Meaaiahship also is dual, and Miss Ann pLee is the female half of it. For some e, I am told, the Shakers have been lomusing the neighbourhood of Lymington. prhe girls dancing in white ou Sunday evening have Called together all the young men of the district to Ilea the performance, much to the grief of good (people, who look upon the thing as a blasphemous Idesecration. Most of the girla are ignorant and entrained. The men also were taken from among ithe peasants. During harvest time Mother Girling her male establishment to the farmers att lB. 6d. each man per day.

Nevertheless, notwith- standing their simple food and inexlellsive wap, they got into debt. Antiquarian sentiment and love of bargnining tnay go well together, but they are a queer mix- iture. Greed and glory are a funny combination. "Vet for greed and glory, partly out of respect fur an ancient landmark," and partly from a desire to get a hold on the Government during the bar- gaining about the New Law Courts,the uncommon Common Council of the City of London has deter- tained to let Temple-bar stand. Few, very few, rople in London wish it to remain where it is; but the Common Council refused to Adopt a motion abolishing it. The arguments which caused the Councillors to uphold it were Cfterthe most" bathetic" style "TempteBar, hey cried, is one of the finest monuments of the ity.
