If the first w*ek of the Parliamentary sea sion has lacked any great sensation upon which public attention could fasten ltielf with an absorbing interest, it has been dis tinguished by several very enriotu develop ments. The expected struggle between the two closely-matched parties on a question involving the fate of the Cabinet has not yet come aboat, That would h»7e been lets of a anrpriie than was the appearance of Sir George Grey on the floor of the House, aa on eameßt, eloquent, and snccevifnl cham pion of tbe native policy of the Govern ment. Deep political motives have.of conr«e, been assigned in many quarters for this cbjvalrona defence of a weak tower in the Ministerial forttatst ; bat it ia an in'jfinioah and unworthy taak to icapagn the aincerity of an oration which breathed in its very truth tbe deep sympathy of one man who baa often been placed ia positions of extreme difficulty and daoger when performing great national duties, towards another who has recently passed through a similar ordeal, in describ ing the state of uncertainty of mind and trepidation, which Mr Brjrcs rnn.it have ex perienced at the critical stagea of his opera tions, Sir George spoke with a depth of feel ing that conld only have sprung from a re collection of ma&y trials in his own past career. A few months ago he did not hesi tate to avow his approval of the West Coast policy, carried into execution by Mr Bryce, at a time when such a recogni tion tended to strengthen tbe claims of tbe Government, upon the confidence of the electors ; and we cannot understand, there fore, why his reiteration of »he same lenti mente, even though more strongly pro nounced, should be invested with any peenlisr j.ojiiical colour, or should have given rise to speculations of combinations which are in the highest degree improbable. Bir George Grey carefully guarded him self against endorsing the plan by which Mr Bryce accomplished his object; in fact, he declared hii belief that he could himself have secured the same result by a quieter and better method; but he generously re cognised the estreme delicacy of the task which Mr Bryce had in hand, and declared his readiness tp give him credit for having

A paragraph in our morning contempo rary conveys the information that the Bar ruter* 1 geaaal knowledge examination " correnponds to that for the B. A. degree in the English University" (sic), li tbls were tine, atndenta woafdget their degrees at a very cheap rate. But the fact i*, the statement i.i absolutely incorrect. The B.A. examination for onr own University demands a far higher amoant of scholarship. In the Barriiter-i examinarion, for instance, the only maihematica required are : Encliri, 4 hook*, and algebra to quadratic equation* —i.e., whatevery fifth-form schoolboy is per fectly a:riaainted with. JKor the 8.A., how eTer.Enclid 5 books, algebra to binomial the orem, trigonometry to solntio-- of triangles, and a cornpetest knowledge of mechani-.st, are demanded. Again in the former exami nation conatita'ional history forms a snb ject by it«elf, while in the latter it counts aa only half a subject, jarisprarlcnce being conpled with it. Wat the«e details are quite enough to show how the " Herald " nas been deceived. Let. credit be given to whom credit is Ana; bat extravagant com parisons, by inyiting contradiction, will io a Htndent much harm,

• The Government insurance Department i* liberalising iti regulations in every possible way; for instance, policies may now be chinged from Table I.to Table lIJ. by payment of the tlifOrence of premium, or from Table 111, (35) to a shorter te?m. Settlement policies (tinder clause 1G of the Act) taken out for the benefit of '■' wife," or "wife and children," wherein the name of the wife ia specified, may, in the following manner, be dealt with for purposes of surrender, valne. or loan, with the wife's consent j bat, if the wife ia not', named, the policy cannot be dealt with. This shonld be borne in mind by peraona asi.urinj,'. All lapsed policies having no surrender value may bs revived upon the favourable terms of allowing the un paid premium to remain aa a charge against the policy, to be paid off whenever con venient to the payer, even allowing tbe loan to remain until the policy matnres. Surrender values are now p-irticularly liberal, keeping policies in force until naif tho duration of policy at date of overdue, ia Table 1., while Tables 11. and XL-will keep policies in force for even a longer period than Table I.

('t the foal crime, Air Parnetl has said :— 1' 1 am horrified more thin I can erpress, \ This Is ons of the most atrocious ernua J ever committed, and its effect must cer '. tainiy be most (Jamaaing to tne Ir&fc ; people. I have always fsnnd Lard t Frederick Cavendish a most amiabt«gentk , man, painsiaMns; and strictly conscientinis . in the fulfilment of his official duties. I ', dii not_ share the disappointment ex | pressed in Liberal Irish circles, regarding , his appointment, as I anticipated that the | principal reforms of the present seaside, , sach as an amendment of the Land j Act, wonld be made nnder Gfai s stone's personal snpervisioa, and I believed [ in its assurances How I befieve tht t administrative reforms will be somewhat * postponed. I cannot conceive that any • section of the Ipeople of Ireland coald hare , plotted deliberately against the life of Lord Fredetick Cavendish, and 1 am surprised that the Dublin police, who had been abb to protect Mr Fotster, should apparently r not have taken any steps to watch over bis successor's safety dn;ioe tbe few hours of hia official life in Ireland. There seems to . be an unhappy destiny presiding over I Ireland, which always comes at the moment c when tbee seems some chance for the i country, to destroy the bright hopes of her I [ best frieuda. I hops the people ot Ireland. will take immediate and practical steps to express their sympathy with Mr Gladstone , in his moat painful position." \ DAVTTT'SDtCUABATIO*. Michael Davis t has expressed his mind ia I • the following terms:—'• No language I • can possibly comnaad can express the | « horr-T with which I regard the murders, or my despair at their consequences. When* ' I heard of them on Sitnrdsy night, I could > not credit tht news. I srieVe to thick that • when the Government had ju«t runaritk ' in introducing the new policy, whea e«ry* ' • thiog seemed bright ani hopeful, when -1 all expected the outrages to cease, this ' terrible event should dash our hopei to tbe ground. I wish to God I never had : , left Portland. The crimi was' withont. •' motive, and is not only the most fatal blow i tuat baa ever been struck st the land • Leasae, but cne of the most disastrous 1 blows which have beea sustained 'by the 1 .National canse dniing the last century. Its i occurreuce at ihh particular juncture seems ' like a terrible destiny. My only hope U that the assaying may be discovered and i punished as they deserve. It is wonderful i bow such an outrage could occur within a few hundred yards of the Constabulary Derflt" OPINIOK OF OTHEB IEISH lIBMBEE3, Mr Sexton' declares : "I am horrified. I regarded Lord Frederick Cavendish as «n aroiahle and pair staking gentleman, fie ; was certainly considered a capable admlnis ; trator. My firit feeling, on hearing of his appointment, was undoubtedly one ot dis appointment, but it began to be gradually understood that Mr Gladstone sent him to Ireland to have the advantage of the service of one with whom he bad lorig'worked, ihcraby enabling him to »pply his own' will more freely to the Iri«h difficulties. Ihere wno reason to believe there was the slightest personal" iteliog against .Ijsrd Frederick in any political quarter ot Ireland.
