place in the Legislative Council last night, in the discussion on The Merchant Shipping Amendment Bill, between Governor DES [s Vaux and the Hon. P. Rr. His Excellency had doubtless the advantage (on paper at least) so far as repartee went, but the senior unofficial member had decidedly the best of the argument. An amendment had been proposed by the Government which in 'several' respects materially altered the present Merchant Shipping Bill. Mr. P. RYRIz repre- senting the community and shipping interests generally, wished to know whether the fees set down in the proposed amend- ment were in excess of those charged under the present Ordinance. The Attorney General, who, we are bound to assume, framed the amendment, "didn't know"; but he thought they were the same as before. Mr. RYBIE, on receiving this most unsatisfactory reply, very naturally remarked that the shipping interests of the port must be jealously guarded against The Governor unnecessary impositions. responded by stating that the fees in question had been submitted to Captain THONSETT before he left the colony, and after admitting that personally he, the responsible Head of the Executive did not know whether there was or not any change in the new proposals, expressed the opinion that as the Bill had been before the Council for many weeks, any objection should not have been left over
Tik Reuter's telegram of the 30th ulto., published in our yesterday's issue, gives us a frightful idea of how matters stand between Church and State in the republic of Mexico. Troubles have existed for a long time past between the priesthood and the Government of that republic, but no one could have possibly anticipated the tragic results just telegraphed from London. That an armed mob, incited to rebellion and led by a horde of priests with the Archbishop at their head, should have attacked the palace of the President of Mexico, and that in the desperate fighting which ensued with the soldiery stationed in the vicinity, seventy-two disciples of St. PETER should have been killed, two hundred captured, and the Archbishop himself made a prisoner and sentenced to be shot, show a state of affairs that forcibly brings back reminiscences of the ST. BARTHOLOMEW massacres, and the earlier religious riots which under the directions of the saintly CYRIL devastated the city of Alexandria and immolated HYPATIA on the altar steps of a Christian temple.

THE etymology of the word honeymoon is thus given by a good authority: "Among the northern nations of Europe there was an ancient practice of newly married couples to drink metheglin or mead, a kind of wine made from honey (hydromel) for thirty days after marriage.
Hence the term honeymonth or honeymoon.

thousand and one arguments which the Roman Catholic clergy have at all epochs advanced against itself. Superstition, fan- aticism, and the presumption of infallibilliy are apt to transform the face of the earth into a scene of perpetual strife, what they have done in by-gone ages they are capable of doing again did the opportunity offer, and but for the prompt reaction which sets in among the cultured and independent classes of the community, the Christian world would ere long have again been forced under the yoke of the Roman See. Moreover, if there is anything more condemnatory of the doctrines professed by these self-styled champions of the Gospel, it is the method they adopt in its propagation throughout the world, They have invariably invoked the help of arms when the secular powers were. friendly to them; and in the contrary case, they have never scrupled to utilise the masses against the legally constituted rulers of friendly States.

Mr. RYRIE thereupon very pertinently remarked that, as nobody seemed to know whether the proposed amendment contained any changes or not, the Council was passing the Bill in the dark, and he protested against such procedure. His Excellency, still in a captious or satirical vein, declined to recognise the protest in the form presented; but His Excellency quite forgot to say in what particular form he would recognise what we consider a very proper protest against official neglect, or ignorance-we don't care which.
