RATHER STARTLING.--A Correspondent sends us a cutting from a paper:--

"Mr. MOODY, the Evangelist, who was a passenger on the

_Spree_, ... preached an able discourse."

She says, "I can read no more to-day. Mr. MOODY, as 'a passenger on the

_Spree_,' is too much for my feelings." As _Joe_ said to _Pip_, "What

larks!" Yours truly, SHOCKED!

["The Agricultural Conference unhappily seems to have

made up its mind to defy the recognised laws of

economic science, instead of endeavouring to adapt

their farming methods to them. The first of the two

operative resolutions passed yesterday was an

undisguised proposal for the re-adoption of

Protection."--_The Times._]]
