OtT OF TOWN. ;
This is a time of leisure, whin
All those who have the means have fled,
And those who havd thorn not, poor men!
When asked about, His always said,
- . They’re out of town.
The stores are left olerke- ,
Domestic joys to Irish maids ;,
While Fashion reigns o’er,Nature’s works,
And belies and fops, by cavalcades,
- , Are out of town.
Notes are due at bank, but try
Tour debtors for a little aid,
Tou’re told, in words as good as pie, •
That bosses all hare sought the shade,
Far out of town.
And if-you go to ohuroh, you’ll hear
, An antiquated sermon read;
In lieu of silks, plain lawns appear,*
In Fashion’s wake the Reverend head
Went out of town.
E’en Justice loft an empty seat,
And Meroy rules her little hour.,'
While vagrants pine in prison heat,
For pomp and pride of legal power
Are out of town. - - -
The pot-house vampyres brawl no more
For this or that great candidate;
And Faction’s plots are left to snore
Till they return to save the State,
And sack the town.
All out of town, yet ruin stares’
Within tho face of lordly, schemes;
And failing banks and railroad shares
Dispel some merchant princes’ droama.
Who’re out of town.

JOTTINGS OF TRAVEL—NO. IV.
BT J. W.
THE.ENGLISH HOUSE OF. LORDS.
EveT since I pondered over that pompous sen
tence of Blackstone’s, eulogistic of the House of
Lords, “ that the nobility are the pillars which are
reared from among the people, more immediately
to support tho throne, and if that falls, they must
be buried under its ruins,” 1 longed to view with
mine ' own eyes the appearanoe of these important
props of English royalty, assembled in their own
chamber. .* • - «• - ’
The munificenoe attd pride of the'nation have,
as I have shown in a previous communication, af
forded a fitting place for the deliberations of this
important body of legislators. With Spartan sim
plicity, the House of. Commons refused the'glare
and gUtter With which the architect desired to or
nameht tho chamber in which they were to assem
ble, while they did not hesitate to vouchsafe, to
him.a loose rein for .his fancy in decoraUng the
House of Lords. And he appears to have filled up
the full measure of his privilege, and surrounded
it with a magnificent gorgeousneas, which reminds
ono of eastern magnificence, or recalls the splendor
of the Moorish Alhambra. - , ’
I must confess to a feeling. of.disappointment
upon first seeing the House of Lords in session. In
no respeot.did it compare with our Senate, when in
its palmiest days, and I am not certain, whether it
would even compare with that body, ndw. in its
decline. If I hod ever formed.any very exalted
opinion of the appearance.of-a “live lord,” it
was most quickly dissipated upon looking in upon
this assemblage- of the, aristocracy for the first
time. Ifi running my eye over the" crowd, it was
with difficulty I .could single out .more than three
or four remarkable for their appearance of physi
cal or intellectual vigor- It was in striking con
trast to tho House of Commons, where one is,struck
with the physique and'intellectual appearance pf
most of the members. .There is the mark of veri
table brain in the Commons, which you look for in
vain among the assembled lords. Of the Bench of
Bishops, the only one that looked “The Baron ”
was the Bishop of Oxford— Slippery Sam, as his
enemiesnickname him on account of his’adroitnoss,
I suppose, in keeping just this side of . Rome, ono or
■ two of his brothers having gone entirely over; and,
it is said by those who profess to know, that he too
has a.strong hankering for “ The Scarlet Woman! ’ ’
He is the son of the Evangelical Wilberforce, the
philanthrophist and Christian; audit is strange,
with their antecedents, that the sons should all be
the very opposite 6f the father, who, if anything,
would have evangelized the Church of England to
the simplicity of faith and worship professed only
by Dissenters. But let the Bishop of Oxford’s
proclivities be wbat they may. he certainly is,
physically and intellectually, an ornament to his
order, and looks more the Peer than all the tem
poral nobles round him, with the blood of. all the
Howards in their veins. * The rest of the Hie
rarchy, at least those I was permitted to seo upon
the Bench of Bishops, cut rather a sorry figure,
and called up in memory that band of old women
in red, the Cardinals, who, on State occasions,
totter on after Pope Pius in the long-drawn aisle
of St. Peter’s at Rome.
The! Lords spiritual of the House are the Arch
bishops and Bishops of the Church of England,
with delegates from the Protestant Church of Ire
land. ‘Striotly speaking, their object is muoh more
limited than that of the Lords temporal, for
although they take precedence as temporal Barons,
yet they do it rather by a fiotion of law than by
anything approaching to reality. A temporal Peer
is understood to occupy his seat in the House in
consequence of his ancestry, and to leave the suc
' cession to his heirs, whereas an Archbishop or
Bishop has neithor ancestor, or heir, as far as his
position in the House isconcerned. They are sim
ply tho representatives of tho clergy, and although
they may take share in all the legislative and ju
dicial ftmotions of the temporal Peers, their natural
function is watching over the interests of thatbody,
of which they are the legitimate representatives.
We turn from the Bench of Bishops in their
, ]awn sleeves to the Chancellor, the presiding
officer of tho House, who aita there with bis capa
cious wig and the lower, part of his body half
- buried in tho woolsack, looking in his serenity for
all the world like, a Brahmin at his devotions.
The Lord Chancellor’s office is no sinecure, and
his duties are infinitely more onerous now than
those which this offloer was c&Ued upon to fulfil
*■' even .*v few years ago- * The great question of law
... reform, embracing as it does so many particular
’ topios, has now become in England a popular cry,
and.Adminiatrations and publlo men rest their
claims to the support of the country at large upon
their merits os sound, efficient, and practical law
reformers. , -
In former times, and in fact up to a very recen
.period, the ’Lord Chancellor Is said tohave been so '
much over- worked as a judge, and as aMinister of
State, that he could hardly pay that attention; to |
questions of law reftrin which his high position at j
the head of the profession, imperatively demanded j
of him. The Coprtof Appeal in Chancery has there
fore recently been established, which has 'relieved
this officer from somewhat of his duties, but it only
gives hi to time and opportunity to attend to others.
It is wonderful how this. officer, can in any Way
satisfactorily discharge the demands made on his
time. He not only has to attend the House as. its
. Speaker, and a judge In the last resort, but, in addi
tion to these duties, behaa to act as Minister; of
Stote r to attend cabinet councils, to preside in the
- Judicial Committeeof tho Privy Council, to regulate
the magistracy of the country, to bestow livings,
, (an incident of office which he holds as . keeper of
the royal conscience,) and to give such passing at
tention , as these exactions on bis time will permit
to the framing of acts of Parliament affecting
the legal institutions of the country . 1
With such mbltifaribus and various duties, Ino
man of ordinary intellectual calibre and industry
could hold the position a single.week without ma
nifesting hia glaring incapacity. The first mipds
of the kingdom are alone equal to the task—3qcb
minds os those of Eldon, Lyndhunt, Brougham,,
Cottenham, and Cranworth. i
Lord Cranworth, the present Chancellor, is a
man near on to seventy, and boars tho marM
levsre labor upon his wrinkled front. He flilod, 1
of course, Some of the most important and responsi
ble offices in his profession before reaching the
woolsack. Having elevated hhzlself tb' his present
-'exalted position by ability and honest industry,
he is consolidating his reputation by rfralljngjhis
great predecessor, who, like himself, ipruDg.from
the ranks of tho people-, who has reformed
‘ the Court of Chancery, made justice cheap,
. and equity something more in reality.than a
mere name. Close at the side of the wool
sack, (a position often caricatured by Puvch,)
sat, or rather I should say crouched, tho.
man .of all the men, ennobled or not, I most de
sired to see, Henry, Lord Brougham, a Peer, not'
by right of inheritance, but by right of intellect.
Tho resources of this man are truly wonderful, and
one. might almost imagine that he bad realised
ibe .ancient Scythian fable,.by killing the fore
most man in. every department of science, and
possessing himsclfof all their intellectual strength.
It matters not what the sabjeot is, however sab
time or however common place, however abstruse
or however practical, Brougham knows it, and
knows it completely. Others may rival, and one
or two may excel him, in the oequirenient of some
single branch of learning, but there is no man.
more thoroughly conversant wijjh the whole circle
of.soience. In addition to this, he turns the science
of to-day to more practical account than any
other speaker; and his speeches are admirable as
-lectures upon philosophy, upon literature, politics,
and the arts. - ;
But ,the Brougham of to-day whatever his in
tellectuality, has nothing'to boast of, either in his
physique or the expression of his oountenanoe.
No one looking at that low wrinkled brow, that
'shocking turned-up nose, With a squareness of nos
tril which. even punch cannot and has not half

ever single him ont from' the common herd of men;

guished by inflexible integrity and strong common
sense. Noble as ho is, he does not look the Peer, and
yet blood pure from, the Norman conquest flows
In his veins. He is a descendant of those Gordons
who, in the great rebellion, stood up so bravely for
the King, and suffered so fearfully in the after per
secutions. • In more modern times those Gordons
seem to have mellowed down from the principles
of their' ancestors, sufficiently to become good
friends to the revolutionary settlement, and even
so far conformed to the temper of the times, that
they abandoned the Episcopal form of religion, for
whloh old Gordon of Faddo died, and joined the
Presbyterian Churoh, of whioh the present Earl, I
was told, is a conscientious member, being the first
Prime Minister of England, sinoe the revolution,
that has not been a member of the Episcopal
Churoh It was Aberdeen who persuaded Murat
to forsake his old master, and won him to deolare
for the Allies. Aberdeen belongs to that class of
statesmen in England who have ever opposed the
principles sought to be established by “ The Holy
Alliance.”
In all the political acts of his life ho has evor
shown that he believed in the principle of tho non
interference with the internal affairs of foreign
States. But this principle he soems to understand
differently from Lord Palmerston. By the latter,
non-intervention meant abstinence from tukiog up
armß on behalf of any one of contending parties;
it did not prevent interference, by advice, en
couragement, and in every possible way short of
actual warlike assistance; by the former, non-intor
ference meant what it exactly professed to bo, an
absolute neutrality between tho contending parties.
In person this distinguished statesman is rather
above the middle size, of a spare figure, and equally
sedate In his garb and bearing, llis stylo of speak
ing is entirely destitute of graoe, and with a con
siderable dash of formality about it. while his
tones are somewhat monotonous.
Rusticits*
White studying the features of Aberdeen I was
startled by the tones of a voice, broad with the
most unmistakable Scotch aocent, and turning my
eyes to the side opposite where ' I was standing,
found that it proceeded frem n light-haired, youth
ful Peer, who was no less a personage than the
Duke of. Argyle. The Duke is one of the young
est member*, and for his year* amongst the ablest
of the Peers. He comes from the numerous clan
of Campbells, whose history is so intimately bound
up with that of Scotland, and occupies as large a
space os that of Douglas. Although he has distin
guished himself iu the debates npon many nubjects,
his chief power appears to lie in polemical discus
sions.
When the Papal aggressions assumed such an
alarming position in 185), the Duke of Argyle
took part in the discussion of the measures brought
forward to meet it. Indeed, some of tho movements
of the Protestant side appear to have been as dis
tasteful to him as those of thePopo and Cardinal
Wiseman. When, for instance, the Bishop of Ox
ford summoned his clergy, and laid before them a
protest against the Papal usurpation, couched in a
stylo whioh favored rather of the protensions of a
rival Pope than of a Protestant prelate, tho Duke
of Argyle published a letter addressed to him, re
buking the arrogance of his assumptions, and paint
ing out tho inconsistency of his pretensions with
tho true position of the Protestant Chnrcb. This
young Duke is said to have achieved also quite a
reputation in the scientific world, having devoted
a large portion of his time to the study of practical
geology/and with considerable success. His style
of speaking is good, and he appears to hare a ready
fluency, whioh is by no means a characteristic of a
majority of the speakers of either Honso. The
only thing that marred its efficacy appeared to mo
to be rather a broad Scotch accent, which gave a
harshness to the tones of his voice.
Tho Duke was followed in the debate by tho Duke
of New Castle in a short speech, but so indistinctly
delivered that it was impossible to catch his mean:*
ing. His manner was decidedly slovenly. This
nobleman has occupied no inconsiderable spaoe in
the political history of the country, when his youth
is token into the account, and I was very much
disappointed with his manner and matter. I be
lieve he is among the richest noblemen in the
kingdom.
Lord Stanley, the eldest son of Lord Derby, fol-
lowed in a very passionate speech. He is a young
man. who has had considerable training in the
lower House, and his cool, collected manner made
it manifest—but his votee is shocking. Punch eaidof
him lately, ‘ ‘ that he was a Demosthenes, who kept
the pebhlos in his month,” and it is a very good
description of a very dreadful voice, which grates
most harshly upon the car. He has an awkward
way of gesticulating with his head, which has a
very ludicrous appearance to a strauger.
I was disappointed 1 in not seeing Lords Lynd*
hurst and Dorby, who were not in the House on
this evening. It is said that an intelligent French
man being once asked, after having attended the
sittings of both Houses, wbat ho thought the differ
ence between them, replied: “The difference be
tween the House of Commons and the House of
Lords is, that in the House of Commons half the
Deputies hare small heads, and in the House of
Deputies all the Deputies have small headsand
this peculiarity struck me. I know small heads
are a beauty, as also a;e small extremities—
small hoads, too, like small ears, are evidences
of breed, or of wtot Is called blood; but is not
this refinement, wfeloh is the characteristic of all
idle classes, a proof of mental degeneracy? The
man who founds a house must be a first-rate uian,
and his characteristics continue* long through his
race; but as soon as the house gets settled, It gets
dull, strength only coming after a struggle, brains
with labor. Clever men have seldom clover sons.
Some aristocracies hold out a great while. The Ro
mans and the French kept themselves fighting,and
in tolerably good mental order, until the Marius
and the Richelieu period, when it became a
fashion to be not heroes, but dandies. How far tho
English aristocracy have degenerated it is not for
me to say; but from recent revelations made in the
London newspapers, some of the titled names of
England have not proved themselves worthy of
their ancestral name ; and it is a significant fact
that most all the talent of the English House of
Beers belongs to its self-made men—the Brough
ams, Lyndhursts, and Cranworths, who are Peers
by right of intellect.

opposed to all state improvements, as they in
volved such an expenditure of money. He knew
the wishes of his constituents, but bis general
knowledge was rather limited. While the bill was
under consideration, Mr. Biddle of the city moved
an amendment, appropriating $lO,OOO for the im

ber from Berks was instantly upon his feet, de
claring his purpose to oppose any appropriation
for the Alimentary or any other canal—declaring

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT—
NEW GAS CONSUMING FURNACE.
CHILSOfiTS NEW CONE FURNACE ,
after having been put to the most severe test, during
the two cold winters op 1860 and 1867, hsi jiroved to
be the most powerful heater in the world , eating from
Vi to A the fuel over any of the best furnaces now m use.
These Furnaces are constrnoted with a cast Iron aßb
pit, and a broad, shallow pan-shaped fire pot, lined
with fire-brick or iron staves. The fire pot is surmount
ed with
A SERIES OF CONES, oa TAPERING RADIATORS,
large and broad at their base, but tapering to small aper
tures at tho top, and uniting with tho anular chomper,
through which the heat and smoke pass to the flue.
Tub wholk products of combustion in the. form of
vmofce and oases, &t© suspended direct! v over the fire,
confined or compressed into the tapering Cokes ana
continually exposed to the direct action of the rays
of heat and light from the fire.
This heat and light is brought to a rooos in SAOU
Cone, not unlike the
COLLECTION OF TIIE SUN'S RAYS,
to a focal point through an ordinary lens, causing the
smoke and o.ißEs to become intensely heated and tho
roughly consumed, by this operation the suoxn and
oases are made equally available with the fuel
itself forheatiag purposes, while, in other furnaces,
it is CARRIED OFF AND WASTED IN TUB OHIKNEY.
All persous desirous of obtaining the best and
MOST ECONOMICAL HEATING APPARATUS,
should not fail to examine the New Gab Consuming
Cone Fdbnaoe, before purchasing any other. The at
tention of architects and builders is particularly re
quested. ARNOLD 5c WILSON,

Farming lauds, in tracts of 40 acres and upwards, ou
ong credits, and at low rates of interest.
These lands were granted by the Government to aid
In the construction of this ifo&d, and are among the
richest and most fertile iu the world. They extend
from North-East and North-West, through the middle
of the State, to the extreme South, and include every
variety of climate and productions found between those
parallels of latitude. The Northern portion Is chiefly
prairie, interspersed with flue groves, and in the middle
and Southern sections tinibor predominates, alternating
with beautiful prairies and openings.
The climate is more healthy, mild and equable, than
any other part of the country—the air is pure ana bra

water abound.
Bituminous Coat is extensively mined, and supplies a
cheap and desirable fuel, being furnished at many
points at $2 to $4 per tou—and wood can be had at the

rich mould, from two to live feet deep, and gently roll

litv is furnished for travel and transportation to the
principal markets North, South. East, West, and the

latter, which must bo borne by the producer; in the re
