THEIR NAMES IN OTHER LANDS.

One may always derive some solace from reading foreign newspapers during a domestic crisis. Their versions, particu- larly, of our famous names cast a fantastic sidelight, which makes the show unreal. Unfortunately their English is improving. Sir Grey and Sir Chamberlain appeared only once this week—in the French Press ; though the latter was transformed into Sir Chamtertain in an excellent Italian daily. A popular Madrid newspaper spoke, with guarded politeness. of Lor Fallodon's letter to Times (no definite article given), He too, I suppose, would be Sir Grey in another disguise and after an unknown step in the peerage.
