We regret to announce the death of Mr. Charles Robert Cockerel!, Royal Academician, and Emeritus Pro. lessor of Architecture in the Royal Academy. He died on Thursday last in the 76th year of his ne. In his early life Mr Coekerelispent many years of careful 'lady amoog the existing remains of clamie architecture in Asia Minor, Sicily, Rome, Pompeii, and elsewhere. In 1811-12 the ruins of the Temples of Jupiter in -Elena, and of Apollo, at Besse, near Phrypleia to Arcadia, were excavated by Mr. Oockerell in company with Baron Haller sod others. An account of those excavations he published ie 1860. The collection of remains from the former edifice is in the museum at Munich, that of the latter in the British Museum. Subsequently " restorations" of far-famed buildings of antiquity as they may once have existed—of the Capitol sal Forum of Rome, of the Parthenon, iso.— often employed Mr. Cockerell's taleots as an architectural draughtsman. Is 1829 be was elected an emaciate of the Royal Academy, sad is 1836 he attained the honour of • Royal Academician. In 1840 he succeeded Wilkins as professor of amhiticture, a post be continued to fill with great encores, his lectors@ supporting that repu tation for learning and ability which he had always enjoyed. In 1841 he was elected one of the eight" Aimories Etcangers" of the Academy of the Institute of France, and is 1843 one of the ten " limbers of /limit" of the Aca demy of St. Luke's at Rome. In 1843 he was created an ihooorary D.C.L. of the University of Oxford. In 1848 be was the first to receive the gold medal of the Institute of British Architecture. He was also a mamba of the academies of Munich, Berlin, and Borne. Mr. Cock ' well was always firm in his adherence to classic architec ture as the style to be imitated in th, nineteenth century in this country, and was long an opponent of that general revival of Gothic art which has of late years obtained more and more the ascendancy. He has, however, mare than once desigoed io Gothic, having vigorously applied himself to the study of medieval archi tecture, and was an active member of the Archeological Institute. To its "Transactions" he contributed many valuable emays, in illustration of English anti quities, "The Iconography of Wells Cathedral," "The Architectural Life of William of Wykebam," " T e Sculpture of Lincoln Cathedral," and others. The principal works executed by Yr. Oockerell, are the Philos°. phiail Institution at Bristol, the Gothic College at Lampe ter, the Gothic speech room and chapel at Harrow, the Taylor and Randolph Buildings at Oxford, the new Public Library at Oxford, the Sun fire oflios, the Royal Exchange, and the Hanover DistrietChapel in Reseal street. He is also reeponsible for most of the various addi tions and improvemeote made during the last quarter of • century to the Beek of England, to which he was deeding architect. To Mr. Cocketell also is due the merit of the recent restoration of St. Pies Cathedral. NAVAL AND MILITARY. (cacti LAIR 11110 Wee GUNN%) WAR-OFFICE, Seri. 18.

The friends of Messrs. Roebuck and Hadfield, the sitting members for Sheffield. held a meeting yesterday, in view of the opposition threatened to one of them by Mr. John Brown, of the Atlas Works. The meeting was influential and numerous, and a promise of support was given to both, although ao objection on the part of one gentleman was urged against the Confederate sympathies of Mr. Roebuck. After Uwe meeting Mr. Dunn received the following note from Mr. Roebuck :—" September 1863, Swansea Dorset. My dear sir,—Your letter has reached me here to-day, and I now write merely to say, formally, that it is my intention, if alive an d well, to stand again for Sheffield when the dissolution oceans.

My long connexion with the people of Sheffield has not, I think, lessened my claims on their favours.

Rognucx." THE SOCIAL SCIENCE CONGREER.—MEETHIG OF Woaueo Mix—Last night • meeting of trades' at convened by circular, was held in Dmmmoied.str i M for the purpose of considering what steps should be takes with reference to the working men's meeting at the ap proaching Social Science Congress. Professor Amber occupied the chair, and there was a large attendance of delegates from nearly all the trades. Professor Ar cher read an extract of a letter from Miss lea Craig, stating that Lord Brougham would certainly preside at the meeting, suggesting that Lord Minto and Mr. Kin naird should be asked to take part in the proceedirap, and stating that Mr. Hastings, the secretary, bed expressed his willingness to speak on the occasion. Professor Archer stated - that he had been informed by Mr. Kinnaird that he would do all in his power for the proposed meeting. Professor Archer also intimated that the subjects discussed at the meeting would require to be few in number, and the speeches upon them short. The Dumber of rowdies must not exceed six, and of these only two could be delivered by working men. Various suggestious were then male by the sorbing men present as to the subjects for discussion. The following subjects were proposed :—Co-operation ; the carry ing out of the evening classes for working men in connexion with the University; trades' unions ; machinery in applica tion to industry, and bow the working classes should conduct themselves under the changes that have taken place; the short time movement ; temperance ; and the loss of health in relation to the position and commatioss of the working classes. Professor Archer spoke at considerable length on the &demises, of the introduction of Monte Videan beet and invited the delegates to meet him after the meeting of 9th October to test the merits of that article of food, which wee to be prepared by Mr. Grieve. of the Café Royal. A committee was appointed for earryiog out this object ; and the mating then separated—Edinburgh Courant. THE NIGHTINGALE FEED.—At a recent meeting of the council of the Nightingale Fund, the report showed that of the probatiocers who bed completed their training as hospital sense at St. Thomas's Hospital, and been placed on the register as certified nurses, twenty were employed in various hospitals and infirmaries, principally in the pro vinces, sad that the accounts received of them were most satisfactory. la consequeooe of the closing of the hospital during the removal of the Surrey Gardens, only a 'mall number had completed their training during the pest year. Twelve probationers are now under tralaieg there. The plan for training midwifery nurses at Ring's College Hospital to be employed among the poor ens making progress. The prebatioaers who have been sent out as trained nurses were employed in country parishes. and were giving satisfaction. The committee state that, although the lumber of probe ' tiooen who had completed their training in both hospitals had from various MUNI fall's short of what might have been expected, they were satisfied with the general results ' obtained. Decided progress had been made in the number of applications for trained nurses on the part of the public, sad there had been latterly some improvement both in the number and in the character of the candidates who applied for the vacancies. The accounts of the receipts and aspen. &tare for the year were ordered to be advertised. The vacancy in the comma occasioned by the death of the late Sir Joshua Jobb was filled up by the appointment of Mr. Edward Marjoribanks, JUT). Applications respecting hos pital Runes should be made to the matron at St. Thomas's Hospital, S. ; applications respecting midwifery nurses to the lady superintendent, Ring's College Hospital, W.C. The regulations as to both may be obtained from the seam tar!, 11, Lomberriatreet, E C. HALF-TINE EDOCATION.—Where the balance be tween mind and body, brain and muscle, is established by education, the chances of life, health, and prosperity are improved beyond all computation. Mr. Chadwick tells us that is half-time industrial schools, the mortality is reduced to cam third of what it is at the same time of life in the general population of England Wales. With this weightiest of facts I conclude our contemplation of the lot of the for tunate children who bums come in for the first share of the benefits of half .time schooling. They have the advantage of the sone sad daughters of nobles, and gentry, and trades men ; for the old-established sebool-hers are still the rule in upper and middle-class education ; end the physical edu cation of children—of girls especially—has still to be in troduced into practiee, while it is having a fair trial among not only young peasants aid operatives, bat paupers, oundlings, and City Arab.—Once a Week. THE FERN MANIA.—It cannot fail to straw a thoughtful observer that among our native ferns we have as . interesting and as remarkable an example of the power of nature to produce endless variety out of a few common place materials as any to be found among the plants or animals of any climate in the world. We have but 46 species of British fern, yet in the nursery at Foot's Cray there are so fewer than 320 distinct varieties of them, each variety reproducing itself, except in a few instances, with stubborn constancy, so that we may fairly doubt at lest if we know the species in any case, and if what lwe call species are not in tbemselves only varieties which have acquired a tolerably fixed character because compelled to submit to oertain uniform conditions of soil and climate. It is a feet of no less intend to the philosopher speculating on the origin of species thee to the fermgrower, who cares not I jot about that grave question, that to form a complete col. • tactical of British fame and their varieties is simply im possible. Mr. Sim enumerates 364 in all; we could, of our own knowledge, add to that total oonsidersbly of vane. ties met with from time to time, but never catalogued, sad of others that have origisated in our own collection, ! but which, being of us special value or interest, have been honoured with only cannel notice, or have been allowed to revert to the types out of which they sprang.

MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.) Two o'Clooi. The Stock Exchange being closed to-day, for the purpose of completing repairs, no hominess is going orward in public securities. The usual telegrams from the Paris Bourse have not arrived. For some days past an extensive business has been going on, and, though it has been chiefly confined to some of the more speculative foreign stooks, such as Mexican, Greek. Spanish, and Turkish Consolid6s, other securities, particu larly the shares of the new financial companies, now all at considerable premiums, have met with a large share of attention. The fact that notice is chiefly bestowed upon non-dividend paying foreign stocks, or upon a class of shares which, if only on account of their recent creation, cannot return large dividends until some time hence, merely serves to show more clearly the dis position of the public to embark in speculative enterprise. The eager demand for bank shares furnishes another significant indication, and the effect is seen, for example, in the rapid advance of the shares of the London and Brazilian Bank to 161. and 171. premium. One of the rumours in circulation is to the effect that an agent is now in London charged with the negotiation of a Mexican loan. Operations in an adverse direction are deterred by the remarkable firmness with which each successive rise in this stock has been maintained. In view of the fine harvest secured, the steady influx of bullion, and the large amount of available capital, there is an impression that the materials exist for a speculative movement of considerable magnitude in the Stock Exchange in the course of the autumn. The discount market is characterised by rather more than the degree of stringency usually expe rienced at this season. There is a general indis position to lend below the Bank minimum, and the transactions even iu first-class bills at 31 t per cent. are exceptionaL It is considered that during the closing weeks of the quarter little money will be obtainable below the Bank rate, and this price accordingly rules the market. Harvest require ments, operating through the country bankers, continue to exercise an effect. Some disturbance will be occasioned by the repayment of between 3,000,0001. and 4,000,0001. of India Four per Cent, Debentures, which arrive at maturity on the Bth proximo. The release of this money will increase the comparative plethora of the October dividend period, but at present the prospect of the payment contributes rather to tighten the money market than otherwise, as the large funds belonging to the Council of India can only be employed fur short periods. It is sig nificant, however, of the opinion entertained with regard to the prospects of the money market that, though very full terms are demanded fcr short loans, relatively leas difficulty is experienced in placing long dated paper. About 22,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank yesterday, while 60,000 sovereigns were withdrawn for Alexandria. The Pen, from Alexandria, has brought 19,1401. in specie. The bar silver by the West India packet was sold yesterday for India at 15e. lid. per ounce, showing • rise of ird. compared with the price obtained for the previous remittance. There is still a strong demand for silver for Bombay, and the steamer of the 27th instant is expected to take • large amount. The steamer Poonah will take, to-morrow, 157,2201. in specie for the East ; of which 119,1951. is gold, and the rest silver. Of the gold, 62,0001. is for Alexandria, and 45.0001. for Mauritius, and the greater portion (21,4601.) of the silver is for Shanghae. The tendency of the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon was less favourable to this country, bills on several of the continental cities being in de mand, and the rates in some instances being quoted rather lower. Subjoined is our usual list : Amsterdam, 3 months, 11.19 to ditto, 3 days, ILI6 to 17; Rotterdam, 3 months, 11.191 to 5 ; intirerp, &months, 25.56 to 60; Hamburg, ma. balm, three months, 13.84 to 1 • Patin, 3 days, 23.25 to 325 ; do.. 3 months, 36.525 to 75 ; Fraakfort-oa-the-Manie, i months, 1191 to 5 : Petersburg (par rouble), 3 months, 361 to 37 ; Vienna, eff. 60.„ 3 m0uth5,11.325 to 375 ; Tried*, ed.

The rates of discount now current in the chief continental cities (in the open market) are as fol lows, viz. :—Poris, Berlin, and Brussels, 34 per cent.; Vienna, 6 ; Amsterdam, 3 ; Hamburg and Frank fort, 2} ; Turin, 4; ; and St. Petersburg, 6 per cent. It appears that the applications for the shares of the Imperial Royal Privileged Union Bank of Austria, without including any of the AusLrian subscriptions, have largely exceeded the company's capital, 2,000,0001. The London list waa closed on Wednesday. A all of 21. is to be paid on the shares in the English, Belgian, and Netherlands Bank (Limited) by the 16th October. _ _ With reference to the financial operations of the Turkish government, we find the following in the Levant Herald of the 9th inst. : It is said that the "difficulty between the Meiji& and Messrs. Oppeoheim, Stern, ►nd the others who held de posits of miles against loans to the Treasury, but sold than at rates which were deemed unsatisfactory by the Minister of Finance, has at length been arranged on the beats of the government's receiving the comparative trifle of 32,0001., as refunded interest for the unexpired term of the loans. The settlement is of course a bed one for the Treasury ; but in view of the foe its part) careless framing of the contracts, no better was perhaps legally possible. The costly bit of experience will, however, not be lost on the Minister of Finance, who will probably for the future And it both cheaper and safer so give hi■ custom exclusively to the Imperial Brink. Aptopoe of this last, we are glad tolearn that its temporary misondentanding with his highness as the subject of the serails' payments is ea the ere of being, if it hare sot already beau, finally and satisfactorily arranged.

Great animation has again prevailed in the foreign stock market, particularly as regards Mexican Bowls, which have attained a fresh rise of 1 per cent., consequent upon a continuance of speculative purchases, combined with the circu- 1 lation of favourable rumours relative to the forth reining financial arrangements. The shares of the London Financial Association were again in great demand, and attained a fresh rise of 16a., closing at 44 to 41 prem.

Mies Rye writes from Kaiapoi, Canterbury (New Zealand), under date of July 13 :— "There is nothing to report about the proposed Smuts? Home, Red I am awakening to the cruel conviction that my return to Ludes will date about the middle of •.0. 19C3. During the neat ten years it is confidently anticipated that a reso lution will be carried, not unanimously, but still car ried, to the effect, 'that it is desirable to get the best sort of girls to emigrate.' During the fol lowing ten years it is believed that an opinion will be expressed to the effect, that having induced re spectable women to noose to the province, it is proper thgt some other provision than the barracks (in which they have only a right to remain one week) should he made for them after landing.' Five years will be required to combat the idea that, u the first colonists underwent great privations, dwelling in tents and dismal eaves, so all emigrants are bound to follow is their steps, and he mule a• uncomfort able as present circumstances and the police will permit. It is a singular coincidence that all new books, watches, and the finer descriptions of merchandise are io this province exposed for awhile after landing to the action of the weather, and left (such is the singular consisteocy of this people) open is tents by the wayside, that they may be hardened and prepared for colonial use. At the end of the 20 years there can be no doubt that the educational question will be considered, it will thee be remembered that F:=lu a body are poor, and, the motto of Christ ,74 Not given to hospitality,' that it will be ad visable some distinct provision shall be made for the neer lion of teachers.
