A WILL informed correspondent writce:| Mr Parnell is certainly not moving those journals which are suggesting andden close to the proceedings of the Spacial Commission. The forged la: Lora will prove to be not the only matter upon which the case against him will be put to cou a ion. He and his ominent counsel a very anxious that the inquiry should proased, and would protost against any other cauren These suggestions may indeed entirely be pat side. Although nothing can approach in dramatic completeness the episode of the fötters, and although the public attention pan ngkar again be riveted as it has been upon the case of Pigott, yet there are other - disclosures to be made which it would be a pity should go unrecorded, and which will have su especial bearing upon the alleged connection between Parnellism and crime.

Ms Chaplin, M.P., speaking recently at Leicester, observed that, with regard to bi-metallism, he was happy to say that he did not believe it was possible by any buman agency to twist it into a party matter. He pointed out an a most remarkable circumstance that since the demonetisation of silver in 1873, there had been an unusual and a prolonged depression in trade and agriculture all over world. Ho was one of those who firmly believed that the abandonment of the system of bi- metalliam was undoubtedly one and quita possibly the main cause of the dopamion which had prevailed fora period of fourteen years, and for which no one had been able At

ascribe other sufficient reason. all events, it was a most curious coinci- dence that there set in about 1874 a period of depression in industry and in all kinds of business which had lasted from that time slmost up to the present moment.

LornON BONARY Socusry.—A crisis which has been threatening this Society for saveral years has come at last; and the quaelion must now be promptly tiled whether it is to continue ita prosent work, or withdraw at once from one or more of its fulds of labour. A careful examination of the condition and cost of the various fields of labour has therefore been made, and the directors have determined upon certain stations in different parts of the world which must be the first to be sacrifend if this necessity actually comes upon them. Yet they cannot believe that the necessity has come oven now. At any to they are not prepared to sound the retroat without mak- ing che more catucet appeal for roinforoc- ments. It should be clearly understood that there has been so falling off in the Society's income. It is stationary, and a stationary income cannot suffice for a grow ing work. To do the present work as it ought to be done, an increase of at leset £5,000 in the Society's annual income is required. To provide for actual needs at present pressing, an immediate addition to the funds of fully £10,000 per annm must be obtained. St. James's Gazette.
