At Stewartstown, North of Ireland, a marriage has just been broken off under extraordinary circumstances. ' A yonng Protestant gentleman was about to marry a prepossessing Catholie lady, and both had arrived at the parish church, when a large crowd made a hostile demonstration outside against the union. The young lady became unnerved, refused to be married, and returned home. The mob previously tried to prevent her entering the church. Earl Spencer has visited Cardiff, and distributed prizes to the students of the University College of South Wales. Lord Spencer said that education in scientific principles underlay our manufactures -«k1 our farming processes. Germans and Belgians were to be found in almost all English centres of industry, Germany and < Belginja having for years given an education beyond the mere language of their own country'. "
