The Quartett Association. Fixal Performa...
The Old School m Paris . —The third floor of the Hotel Coquelet ia likewise divided into two tenements , in each of which lives a different tenant . Both e _single : one an old spinster , the other an old bachelor . Mademoiselle de Keraguel lives on the right-hand side of the staircase . She is seventy years of age , and lias been very beautiful once , and very unhappy . Her brother was a marquis of the old regime , and she comes from Brittany ; but she is the last Keraguel now . She has outlived friends , relatives , fortune , happiness , everything but religion . So she is what the Parisians call a devote . She goes to matins , complins , high mass ,
and vespers . She has an occasional assemblage of old friends in her plain salon ; two or three old priests , an old countess whose children were weaned from her by the guillotine , and a weasened old chevalier with the cross of Saint Louis . These she regales with tea and snuff . They talk politics of the year 1780 , and of the year 1816 to 1850 inclusive . All intervening years are to them a blank . The reigning king is at Frohsdorf , as he was at Holyrood and Goritz . With them Napoleon is always M . de Buonaparte ; Louis Philippe , the Duke of Orleans . They never mention the name of Robespierre ; they speak of him as " lui . "—Dickens ' s " Household Words . "
Encroachments of the Ocean upon England . —We shall probably spend not a few millions at the Cape , to prevent the Blacks from driving us out of Black-Land , which we might reconquer , even after it had once got quite clean rid of us ; but we won't lay oat a five-pound note to resist the German ocean , from whom there are no reprisals obtainable . Were any foreign potentate to seize upon Sidestrand , drive off its inhabitants , and convert the church into a little garrison , _avc should by some means soon pitch the impertinent aggressor and his soldiers over the cliff into the
sea , and re-induct the frightened incumbent into quiet possession of his pulpit . But so long as Sidestrand , its church , and its incumbent , are fated to be struck very shortly out of the Clergy List , what does it matter how they are made to disappear ? The discredit of yielding them still attaches to us , so long as we say to the aggressor , " Pray come and help yourself to that which best pleases you . " Two methods only have been adopted to prevent the spoiler from excavating a most tremendous hollow into this goodly county . One
is by cutting the face of the cliff into a smooth slope , and facing it with stone cemented by mortar ( as had been done at Brighton ) , taking care at the same time to drain oft" the land-springs , and prevent them from nibbling at and forcing out of place the foundations of the work . The wells in the neighbourhood require special attention . Great benefit would be derived from sinking wells on the inner or land side of the cliffs , subjected to the influence of the land- springs ; for the loss of the four-and-a-half acres before-mentioned is
attributed primarily to a foolish individual , who a tew months before filled up three wells close by . The town of Cromer has been kept standing by well-sinking ; so also have a single house and grounds at Mundesley . It seems to be quite forgotten that these fortifications , as the sea cats away the cliffs on each side of thorn , right and left , will first become promontories , and then islands , unless the whole lino of twenty miles is similarly encased with stonework—a costly scheme , which is not likely , although it ought , to bo undertaken by the nation ; for Kent , Sussex , and Hampshire , as well us Norfolk and Sussex , are also yearly becoming less and less . —Dickens ' s " Household Words .

TO THE ELEOTOES OF WESTMINSTER . GENTLEMEN , —Having been assured that you are not prepared to allow your political rights to bo disposed of , aa by private contract , I pledge myself that you shall have an opportunity of recording your votes in favour of an independent candidate . As time is precious , I proceed at once to lay before you a brief statement of my political opinions . A Radical Reformer on the broad principles of religious , civil , and commercial freedom , I contend th _& t the people is the only legitimate source of power ; and that , 'as all wealth is the produce of labour , the workman should partake of the fruit of his own industry . In Parliament I shall vote for manhood suffrage , the ballot , annual elections , equal electoral districts , and the abolition of absurd property qualifications .
A Free-Trader m the fullest acceptation of the term , I hope to see a truly Liberal policy adopted in our relations with foreign countries ; for in the close and intimate alliance of tho peoples will be found the surest bond of universal peace . I am , Gentlemen , your obedient servant , Reform Club , June 22 . WILLIAM CONINGHAM .
