The Lords Grey and Lords Howard Are a Numerous and Confusing Grqup arid the Lords of Hamilton Are Legion--Extra and Supplemen- tary Titles Are Common to Most Noble Houses. - If anyone is seeking a hobby which tax brain and memory wo the ut- , and which shall elude and baffle and tantalize him to the verge of dis raction, let him set to work '0 master the intricacies and perplexities of our rage. I am inclined to think that after a few weeks of it he would turn to Form IV. as a light recreation. Who, for instanee, even in the gild- ed circle of the peerage itself, can reel of the various fellow-peers who an- swer to the description "LordsGrey"? And how should he know which of them was referred to under that de- signafion--Earl Grey, Viscount Grey le Wilton, Baron Grey of Crchy, or laron Grey de Ruthin, to say nothing of Earl de Grey? The Lords Howard are equally confusing; for we have a Lord Howard of Effingham, another of Glossop, and a third of Walden. 'And are there not Lords Howard of Mor- peth and Charlton? The Lords of Hamilton swarm like bees. We have a Hamilton Duke and a Marquis, Lord Han%liton of Dalzell, and two subsidiary titles of Lord Hamilton, in addition to a small crowd of courtesy lords who bear the name. Of Lords Stuart or Stewart there are four; and coroneted Boyles, Bruces, Douglases, Hays, Herberts, Hille, and Montagus number three eacn If you wish to go farther into the peerage maze, teke a peep at the div ision lists of the House of Lords, which mny well puzzle the King-at- Arms himself. Who, in the name of all that is reasonable, is the Earl Strange who. figures there? Who are Barons Shute, Mendip, Saltarsford. and Fisherwick, Worlingham, Mel- drum, and Botreanx? All, as a mat- ter of fact, are well-known peers, who sit in the House of Lords under these unfamiliar imperial titles. The Earl of Aberdeen is known at Westminster only as Viscount Gordon; the. Mar- quis of Headfort, as Baron Kenlis; the Earl of Limerick, as Baron Fox- ford; the Marquis of Sligo is Baron Montéagle; the Marquis of Watérford is Baron Tyront--and so on through the long mysterious list. The foreign titles borne by our peers, however familiar in a dozen alien countries, are 'just as effectual in concealing identity from us. We know Lord Reay well enough, but who knows him as the Dutch Baron Mac- kay of Ophemert? Lord Clarendon figures in the Prussian peerase roll as Baron Villiers; his grace of Richmond is hailed by the old French noblesse as Due d'Aabigny: the Duke of Ham- ilton is Due de Chatelherault across the Channel; and his brother Duke of Wellington is Duque de Ciudad Ro- digo, Marquess of Douro and Torres Vedras, Conde da Vimielra, Prince of Waterloo, and a grandee of the first 'lass in Spain. His grace of Marl- borough is the Suabian Prince of Mindelheim; tHe Earl of Clancarty is Marquess of Heusden when he takes a trip to Holland; and in far Brazil the Earl of Dundonald is greeted as Marquess of Maranham. In Italy, Charles Giustiniani-Bandini is Due di Mondragene, Count of Carniola, and Lord of. Varana;~in England he is the Earl of Newburgh, and the heir to all these strange dignitigs is just Vie count Kynnaird. Even' when (the titles are familiar enough to us it is fatally $asy*te blun- der. Thus, if we speak of Earl Lyt- ton and the Earl of Béauchamp we convict ourselves of gross, unpardon- able ignorance. It is the Earl of Lyt- ton the Marquis of Cholmondeley, the Earl of Onslow; just as it is the Mar- quess Camden the Earl Beauchamp, and the Earl Cawdor -- and so on through a long list of mére than forty Jeers who repudiate the preposition 'of, If we descend to subsidiary titles we are hopelessly undone. Indeed, it is doubtful whether some of ou: peers themselves could reel off the list of their dignities offhand withgut error. His grace of Atholl has twenty-two of them, ranging from Baron to Duke; The Duke of Argyll boasts seventeen; the Duke of Hamilton sixteen, inelud- ing a trio of dukedoms; and the Mar. quis of Bute and the Duke of Bue cleugh counts their up to fifteen. Who among us conld recognize the Duke of Atholl under the guise .of Lord Balauhidder; the Duke of Argyll Earl Cowal; Lord Bute, as Vis count Mountjoy: or His Grate of Buccleuch as Viscount of Thorthors wald? Lord Rosebery as Viscount of Inverkeithing is a stranger to most of his intimates; Lord Lansdowne, as Earl of Wycombe; and the Duke of Portland would scarcely know himself as Baron Bolsover. One must be very careful of one's orthography in. writing to, or of, our 'ers if we are not to be branded as gnoramuses. Beware of writing Done. gal, Guildford, Rosebérry, Kinsale, or Argyle instead of Donegall, Rosebory, Kingsale, Guilford, and Argyll. And we must be equally careful to avoid confusing Lord Camden with Lord Campden, Lord Bangon with Bandon Bridge, Farl Band with Viscount Liandafi, or Baron Inveraray with Baron Inverurie--te mention but a few of these confusing personalities, who are really quite distinct, and who strongly object to beipg mixed up. Courtesy titles ar® a sore puzzles to the uninitiated. Tt is, of c. arse, usual for the eldest son and heir to a duke- dom, marquisate, or earldom to be known by the family title next im rank to that borne by his father. But the rule is subject to perplexing variations. Thus the heir to the Mar. quitate of Lansdowne is known in alternate generations as Earl of Kerry and Barl of Shelburne; and the heir to the Marquisate of Lothian may be Lord Jedburgh as well as Earl of Ancrum.--Moder Society. .

It surpassed all rally |days of past vears in attendance, in- terest, enthusiasm, A well-arranged {programme was successfully carried lout. by the superintendent, Dr. E. il.uke. It inchwded responsive rewd- |ing, songs by the school, some, of (which were illustrated by means of {the stereoptican as they were being sung, a chorus by the primary de | partment, a solo by Miss Muriel | Campbell, and a most interesting {little talk by Rev. J. E. Chute on Ithe dtldren of India. Then he sang 'two verses of a hymn and also re the Lord-s prayer in Telugu Roll" Sunday peated | Eight memlyrs of the "Cradle were graduated and received a very neat diploma, presented to them by [Miss Kines, the superintendent of this department. These were addressed a {few complimentary words by the |pastor, and presented with a badge lof distinction. ' Alleged To Have Assaulted a Fellow Workman. authorities are search: |ing for a Frenchman, who has been {working at Stoness' Corners, 'on a charge of brutal assault.

PRINCE ARTHUR TO BE Governor-General of Canada, Suc. ceeding His Father. London, Sept. 29.--The Daily Sketch to-day says : "We can confirm on jvery high authority the statements made lately that Prince Arthur of Connaught will ultimately sweceed his father as governor-gemeral of Canada. This is one reason for the marriage being hurried forward, since it was made the condition when the ap- pointment was first offered him that he must be married before he took it over."
