LONDON, THURSDAY, SEPT. 10. RAILWAY CHARGES AND Arcommo- DATION. Plnnkre the preeent disposition to fight tho _ _ railway boards by travelling third class may mg . gest to the public other possibilities of improve . meat besides reduction of fares. It will certainly demonstrate that tho differences in intrinsic con venience between first and third class is very trifiing, and what the railway companies charge so much for must cost them very little. The cheap carriages are just as strong, and hung on as good springs as the dear. This is proved by many car riages being " composite "—containing second elass, and sometimes even third class, compart ments on the same wheels as fho first class. The floors and ceilings are the same, except that there is a strip of carpet or a rug on the former, and paper or varnish instead of paint on the latter, in the dearer compartments. The seats are the same, with the sole addition of spring stuffing in very dusty cloth linings, and sometimes of par titions between each person. The doors are the same, except a trifle of polished mahogany in the first class. The windows of the first class fit better, and they have, or ought to have, blinds. But on the whole it is obvious that a first-class carriage cannot cost originally above a pound per seat more khan the corresponding second-class, and any one who computes how many thousand passengers it ought to carry during its life can tell us the in finitesimal fraction of a farthing which each ought in justice to be charged for his superior accommo dation. The fact is that the railways charge us, and we pay, for our gentility. We want a dif ference of grade, in order to separate us from the vulgar, and the railways are kind enough to com ply by sticking on a higher price. But then, might we not reasonably ask them to give us some improved conveniences for so large a difference of , money ? Is this dismal effort of upholstery all that they can offer in return for ouch a difference of price It is a remarkable fact about railway carriages that they never do undergo any improvement. As the first-built carriage was, so is the last-built. The original idoa, it must be confessed, is of the simplest character. Three stage-coach bodies fastened together back to back, and set upon four wheels, is the ultimate conception of the railway carriage architect. There is a little less cramping of the legs and squeezing of the ribs than in the old stage coach, but that is all the difference. As of old, one person at each side has the absolute command of the ventilation, and of the sunshine or shade. The heat is greatly aggravated, for there is no pile of luggage to protect the roof from the sun's direct rays. The dust is worse, for it is raised in dense clouds by the jar of the wheels, and diversified by smuts and ashes from the engine chimney. Is there no arrangement of seats possible but that of the stage coach body ? Is it impossible to provide ventilation available to each passenger? Might not the car riages be warmed in winter, and kept a little cooler in summer? Might not the dust be pre vented from rising, by a* different material being used for " ballast," or by a different method of laying the sleepers ? On this last head we may cite in evidence the case of the Great Western. The dust on that lino has boon during summer notably less than on some of the other lines, and the fact is that the rails on that line are laid on heavy longitudinal beams, instead of cross sleepers resting on the gravel. As to the arrangement of seas, wo may point to the carriages of Austria and Switzerland, which have a passage for the guard down the middle,. and provide to each passenger a table for his per sona convenience. Again, we may appeal to America which for long journeys has introdued sleeping cars. Would it not be worth the while of the Groat Northern or the North Western to establish such avowed conveniences at &slightly eh- Wooed price forth° tourists who now manage topes* TH 4 E EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVAN:WO, SEPTEMBER their night's journey without foamier entrap by the tokoiniatration of half-a-crown to the guard give them sticks to stretch from oat to seat, suA to keep other passongera from eatoring the earl tinge I+ Again as to ventilation, it surely ought to be the °airiest thing in the world to allow useh paseenger to have some MAIM of getting fresh air for Limeelf without tho nocessity of opening a window and catching cold from. the furious wind if he is next it, or of beseeching the window pa.- sensor to open it if ho happen to bo antod in tho middle. But while we claim those ordinary and obvious comforts for the first-olass passenger. we do not in the Inlet mean to say that they are not almost itpially due to the second and third class. One of the most shameful points in railway management is their effort to clrive passengers into the higher priced compertments by the denial of ordinary decencies to tho lower. It is only a few years since many lines forced third-olass passengers to travel in open trne.ks, unsheltered either from wind or rain. Even now, though they can hardly make the carriages different in substantial points, they make the humbler ones uncomfortable by draughty doors, rattling windows, the denial of pegs or shelves for ooata or hats, the absence of any warmth in winter, and the refusal of any separate compartments where women, travelling alone, might be free from insult. An infinitely small outlay would remedy all those defects, and the public is entitled to expert it. If railway com panies say that they cannot afford to make the lower-priced carriages comfortable for fear of diminishing the number in the first claw, we reply by the question, Do third-class passengers pay, or aro they carried at a loss ? If the fact is that it pays well to carry them, it would pay bettor to carry more of them. And cer tainly more of them and of every other class would be carried if the companies would more consider the comfort which is so essen tial an element in the inducements to travel. Just now nobody enters a railway carriage who is not forced to it by business or by the necessity of getting by such means to the place where ho seeks other enjoyment. The mere travelling is a die comfort which everyone avoids if ho possibly can. This is a sentiment which has the worst possible influence on the companies' exchequers, but which it is in their power to remove. Let them make travelling more agreeable in every class, and tons of thousands more will travel in every class. Tteir officials no doubt will solemnly assure them of the eontrary. More traffic means more trouble to everyone on the staff, from porter to manager and secretary. Trouble to the staff has been the cause of stifling many a ettggeeted improve ment, and many a contemplated reduction of fares. Well, the companies must make their own choice. They may either go on pleasantly and indifferently, paying little or no dividend, and exasperating the public into hostility by rais ing fares and diminishing oonvenionce, or thoy must recognise the fact that, like every other commercial concern, they can only obtain success by deserving it. And if they once turn their minds fairly to the latter alternative, heedless of the alarm and remonstrances of thew who are interested only in earning their salaries with the least possible trouble, they will find a hundred ways in which they can attract and augment traffic, and by which. consequently, they can pay fair dividends while yearly adding to tho public accommodation. 0 Uli TEbi I'9 KA lit W.

It in needless to add," says the correspondent, " that this is as improbable as the former." In reply to La Prance, which attributes the fall on the Bourse to articles in the newspapers which express merely tho personal opinions of the writers, the opposition journals with ono voice refer to the article in the Constiltitionnel as the source of the panic. The Journal de, Dishals of to-day disetevese in a long article, signed by its well-known Secretaire de la I(cdart‘n, the question of peace and war. It admits the existence of a strong war party in Franco, and it combats their opinion as to the neee.sity of war. It quotes the " al most official" declaration of M. Rouland, the governor of the Bank of Promo, that trade and commerce are suffering "from tho nightmare of uncertainty," and that confidence can only be restored " by accomplished facts and definitive settlements." It Women the language of Mondial Niel, who &dared that Franco is armed and ready for war or TWIRCA, by the language of M. Magee, who said that " peace will he durable for Europe needs it, for the Emperor desires it, for France is powerful enough to endure it (peace) without fi ur of being accused of weakness." And it concludes without any conclusion, simply affirm ing that the words of M. Mane complete the language of Marshal Niel. THE CHILDREN OF THE RICH. TIIII mothers of the upper and middle chaos are the people really to blame for the sins laid at their nurses' doors. The correspondence now taking place in the columns of a contemporary treats of grievances which are patent to every ob server, and which aro but the outward signs of other and graver evils. The physical harm in flicted on a child left in the hands of an ignorant and careless nurse-girl is but a type of the more serious injury done to its disposition, its tamper, and its heart. Can there be a more delicate-or important duty than that of training the infant mind, of guarding it from hasty and erroneous impressions, and of guiding it to a fitting appreciation of what is good and true This is so far acknowledged in externals that nunse are often selected for accent alone, and in the northern and midland counties it ie no un common thing for the well-to-do to import a L.mi don nurse for the purpose of ensuring that young children shall have the trio metropolitan pronun ciation of English words. French and German Donna are in request fur similar reasons; and it seems strangely inconsistent that the moral and mental qualities of a nurse are not estimated with equal care. The contrast be tween the sweet innocence of childhood and the blotted and blurred page so much of our manhood and womanhood represent might be considerably decreased if proper influences were exerted in the nursery. This rests with mothers alone,. and is a duty which cannot be transferred. Given, an ill-conditioned, nndieciplined, ignorant, and prejudiced woman as the oompanion and di rector of childhood ; and a perverted nature and a warped mind are as harvest is to seed-time A writer do this morning's Times remarks : " If a " man neglects his business and comes to grief it " only serves him right, and he receives but little " pity ; and if a mother neglect* her children, " which she does by having them nursed by " anyone but herself, and her children come to " grief, which they very likely will, it is but the " just punishment for her unnatural conduct. The " children are to be pitied, and have reason to " envy a tiger's cub." These are hard words, but they are true. We repudiate as calumnies the I assertions recently put forth concerning girls of the period and fashionable matrons; but that the sweetest duty of maternity is too often neglected to the irretrievable injury of the child, is unhappily indisputable. Good mothers make good nurses, and good and happy children. Bad —and by bad we mean neglectful or careless mothers—bring all other evils in their train.

Schulze-Delitselt and Jacoby were prevented by busincee from attending. M. Bebel was elected president. The first question discussed was whether the German Austrian. and other foreigner should have a consultative or deliberative voice. It was decided that they should have ft consultative voice only. In spite of a strong protest from the Rtuttgard Associa tion, the Congress adopted the programme pro posed by the Leipeic committee, as follow.: The fifth congren, of workmen thseembled at Nuremberg adopts the programme of the International Working Melee Ashutiation, and declares in harmony with that asiociatiuu: 1. The emancipation of the working mutt be whinnd by the working elassisi themselves. The at utrgle for the emancipation of the working classy* is nut a s►nµg:o for clam pnvilere ur monotone:, hot for equality of rights and duties. and fur the abolition of the privileges of es ety clan. 2. The eetaiumical dependence of the winking man on the man who has monopolised the instru ments of labour is the principle of slavery, whativer form it may assume, of social misery, of intellectual inferiority, and of political subjection. 3. The political movement is the indispensable means of effecting the economical entren ch'. era nt of the working class. Tao weed question is therefore inasparab'e from the politi cal question ; the solution of the first depends n the eoluti.o of the second and is only pomible under a nkrseeratic government.

Henri Rochefort, the author of La Lanterns. entered one of the stage boxes of the Thiiit re du Cirque with some friends, and remained for some time an attentive witness of the proceed ings of the congress. lied he been generally known, I dare ray ho would have been made the subject of an ovation ; hat as he occupied rather a retired position in the box he was only recognised by a few individuals, and escaped any demonstra tion of public sympathy. The final derision upon the attitude which work men ought to assume tho event of a war be tween the great European powers has been post poned until the close of the congress, and the question which was debated, but without any result, this evening was, " Strikes, federation among trades un ions, ancia, l 4 fie resistance, and the creation of a council of arbitration for possible strikes, grives ermine/les." The dis cussion was not nearly no animated as was that of the previous evening, and as almost all the speeches were delivered in French, and none of them were Ira :Islet into any other language, the German and Flemish as well as the English delegates must have been entirely ignorant as to what was going on. The question was introdiusel by the reading of several reports from various sections of the association. Sumo of these, especially that front Brussels, were very long. As their general purport was pretty muds the sufficient to notice only one or two of them. As far as I guttered from the reading, none of these reports expressed unqualified appetite' of strikes, lint all defended them on the ground that they were rendered nets- any by the existing social and econo mised oondition of the world, and pointed to the general establishment of trades unions, and their federation under the auspices of the International Association, as the beet means of putting au end to such conflicts. The Liege section regarded striker ea contests in which injuries were sustained by both parties, and fatal consequences often resulted to one or the other; but maintained that in the pre sent Mate of society they were inevitable. The telly, or ut all events tho beat means of avoidine them was to establish an international union of trade societies, so that workmen in all countries might communicate with each other, and obtain such complete knowledge of the circumstmwes of their several trades as would enable them to secure attention to their just demands without resorting to these extreme measures. The report of the Bnutsels section admitted that strikes fur nished no complete solution of the questions which arose between capitalists and workmen, and recorded that, as far as the hitter class was een cerned, they sometimes had meet deplorable (junestes) results. At the same time, it called at tention to the existence of associations of capi talists, and pointed out that in England strikes had often been suceessful. It was necessary to distinguish between strikes and strikes. Some of these contests were so ill-timed, and so ill-con . ductixl, that their failure was inevitable, but this observation by no means applied to all. trader any circumstanc e s they were a protest against the monopoly of property. (Applause.) Strikes at,- peered to be a necessity ; lea in order that a strike should success!, there must be a union of :several conditions. It must not only be just, but it must be opportune, and must be supported by a good organisation. It was the absence of organisation which led to the ill suwess of the strike of Charle roi. Strikes could not completely ameliorate the condition of working men, but they were a natural protest against the existing organistition of society. To the success of strikes, societies of resistance (trades unions), were of course essential ; but they would be of little or no use without an in ternational federation. Objection was taken to the existing councils of arbitration on the ground that the advantages of position, education. and so forth, enabled the employers to control the judg ment of theme tribunals, Which were composed half of masters and half of workmen; but the seethe) desired the appointment of a federal council to discover the limits, and devise the means of arbitra tion Strikes were only a palliation of the exist ing system of things, and both they and trade,' unions were spoken of as a step towards association, and the abolition of the salarariat. Whet the Brussels branch especially demanded—and of this requisition the majority of the emigress ap pound very cordially to approve—wan the absorption of capital by work. rho discussion which followed was opened by Tarlaret, of PM-6, who, speaking in entire harmony with the spirit of the reports, declared that strike& were neees and nec essarily involved the existence of trades unions. Ile condemned the 'misting tri bunals of arbitration such as the Conseil* tie Prudlommes in Franco, as unsatisfactory, awl expressed a confident opinion that the most news- Sary measure was the establishment of a confede ration of co-operative societies and the organiza tion of a tribunal which should work like the tri bunals of commerce. Catalan was of opinion that strikes WPM the only means of obtaining the aug mentation of wagtat and the concession of the rights of tho workman. In many instances, as in France itself, the political forces were opposed to the working men, anti iu such casts the vin dication of work could only be effected by moons of strikes. In countries where political liberty existed, as in Switzerland, this task of the work man was inure easy, as was proved by the ex.- perk.nce of the Cleneva strike. In that ease the men on strike beat drums, paraded the streets. and discussed the question of the strike, just as they pleased, without the interference of the police. In his opinion the social and ecanonne emancipation of the labourer was indissolubly bound up with his political emancipation--a de claration which excited loud applause. Tontine of Paris, pointed out that this was the Mouthed proposition that war affirmed by the congress at Lausanne, and asserted that strikes and trades unions wore right and inevitable, as being the necessary means of transition from our present state of affairs to one of association. The federa tion of trades societies was nee eseary to create an authority which should enfortin the desires of any council of arbitration ; and as a praotiotd measure ho retssuunentled the federation of all trades unions, and the establish ment of a tribunal of arbitration charged with the settlement of all questions that might arise. Another delegate still further enforeisi the doe trim, of federation by reminding the Congress that the musses of the Geneva strike was attribu table in great measure to the contributions which they retatived from the working men of other na time'. In order to ensure the peteentso of such eteltrilmtiens when they were wante4, it was nreeasair7 that there should bo an international association. Shaw, from England, while admit- ting that etrikest had pro:lased tomper ar t a, r ... ing, denied that would-be ;solicited OLllll,niii,,ts hal sum vied in their attempt to prove that the work . ing classes had been ruined by them.
