Aw Usuarry Srovse.—The wife of several years standing of a young man belonging to Halifax suddenly disappeared last Thursday night, and about the same time a visitor to the city, who had been attentive to the woman in her unmarried days, also departed. The hus- band had gone to the Lyceum and on his re- turn found the establishment locked up. On Saturday he received a letter from his missing partner, dated St. John, expressing regret at her action and a desire to come back, but as she had acted somewhat similarly about a year ago the injured young man thinks he will let her rove where’er she likes hereafter.—Hali- fax Chronic

MaJor-Gen, Mrppieroy, on the 3nd inst., inspected the Battery, the barracks, the ar- mouries, and the fort of Kingston, attended by Col. Villiers, D. A. G., and several of the officers of the district staff. He expressed himself as fully satisfied with all he saw. The Canadian soldiers especially pleased him,

and he thought the militia of the country in physique superior to the militia of the old land. He did not expect to find things as

saa in Canada as at Aldershot, but he was ound to say that what he had seen in Tor- onto and Kingston surprised him and elicited his compliments, His present tour was not Official; he merely desired to see the various military posts and make the acquaintance of otlicers located at them.

Birmineuam, Aug. 5.

In connection with the great Reform demonstration here yesterday, an enthusi- astic meeting was held in the evening, at Bingley Hall. Fully 20,000 people were

present. Ina speech by the Right Hon. John Bright, he made a _ power- ful attack upon the peers. He said the divine right of King’s was dangerous.

The divine rights of Peers is a ridiculous figment. Ifthe Lords are obstinate, speaker said, agitation will continue tto the bitter end. England, he said, has been chosen as the home of a self-governed peo- ple who will never be subservient to the in- solent pretensions of a hereditary class. He said the Tory majority in the House of Lords was actuated by the same bitter hatred of Liberals as in 1837. ‘‘Who are the peers,” he asked. ‘‘They are the spawn of the b’unders,wars and corruption of the dark ages of our history. They had enter- ed the temple of honor, not through the temple of merit,but through the sepulchres of their ancestors. They were no better than their fathers. Some of them were worse, for their privilege had produced ignorance and arrogance. The reform of the Lords is inevitable. The creation of new peers to pass the Franchise Bill would only get rid of the present difficulty. What was wanted wasa limitation of the veto power of the House of Lords. Should the people submit, or should they curb the nobles as their fathers had curbed the kings of England? Mr. Bright then pro. ceeded to explain the manner in which he would like to see the power of the House of Lords restricted. He would allow the peers to retain their present power during the first session that a bill should be presented to them, but he would absolutely preclude them from vetoing the Franchise Bill or any Bill a second time. Many persons, no doubt, would think him lenient to the peers. But he preferred remedies which, while effectual, would cause the least disturbance to existing in- stitutions. The meeting displayed its ap- proval of the sentiments expressed by the speaker by frequent and enthusiastic ap- plause.

A resolution was adopted denouncing the action of the House of Lords in re-electing the reform of the franchise.
