On each succeeding anniversary of Christmas it has been our practice to lay before the pablio • datelined 'bowleg the treatment of the poor in our metropolitan ad suburban workhouses oa Chrtitmes-day, together with various other points of intermit ocausected with the working of our social system and our local government. Possibly at no period can these ststistice of pauperism be more interesting than at • time when the census showing the present populatio• of the kingdom has teen revised, and from which • fair criterion may be formed as to the permute(' which the parochial poor exhibit in comparison with the population of the several districta enumerated. Whilst it would appear from the subjoined report that the census of the metropolitan district. shows an aggregate in crease, when takes I. April last, oleo lees than 472,561 over the population taken at the corresponding period of 1851, th e gratifying fact is established that with such an enor mous Menage of population there has been by no means • sorresponding increase of pauperism. Indeed, on instituting • comparison with similar re turns made at the Christmas of 1851, it will be found that the gross number of poor rewiring in and out door parochial relief exceeded thine of the present year. Although, generally speaking, there has been an increase over the corresponding period of last year, the results are so trinieg as to afford • subject for general rewgratulation, ea widowing as adman in ominuereiel and peamal peer parity eves amongst the humbler elasees.

EDMOND ABOUT Oh PRINCE ALBERT'S DEATH. The brilliant French writer, M. Edmond About, Is at present contributor to the feuillerom of the Constite tionowl. The following passage is from an article in that journal of Tuesday, which bears his signature : " Have you remarked that phrase in the official publica tion of the English Government after the death of Prince Albert—qt is expected that all persons will assume a decent mourning " How much is said in a few words ! A whole treatise might be written on them. The Queen of a great nation has just lost her husband, and she hopes that in her three kingdoms every person will assume a decent mourning. This is neither a decree, nor an ordinance, nor • command sent down from on high ; it is a simple appeal to public sympathy, and at the same time • reminder of a social obligation. There is in the formula a mingling of dignity, confidence, and familiarity. You feel, from the very fist word, that the dynasty which speaks is in the most courteous, if not the moat intimate relations with its subjects ; that no one disputes its rights —that it has no declared enemies in the nation—that it may rely, on all occasions, upon that loyalty without meanness which the English display with • sort of coquetry. You perceive a Queen who reigns and who does not govern—a people which manages its own affairs, and fears all the less to appear humble and submisove because it is sure to remain free—a country of tradition, of decency, and of decorum, governed by manners even more thee by laws. " We, of course, are proud of being French—that is all settled. But there must pass away many years before our political manners are elevated to the high tone of those of England. Nothing is more unequal, more capricious, less logical, than our relations with the men who govern us. The French reoplo conduct themselves towards monarchy as towards a mistress. We embrace it, we beat it, we put it out of doors—we seek it out next day and cling around its knees. Yesterday we could find no came foul enough foe it ; to-day we flatter it, not without blushing at our present baseness and our past violence. It is a question of on and temperament. We adored Louis XI V. as a god, yet we flung mod epee his funeral cortege. There was, too, that bun bonne of a king whose hand we clasped between both our own, full of respect for his coiffure and of admiration for his umbrella, yet he had to fly in the midst of hooting*, honest man though he was in his own person. With what acclamations did we not deafen Lamar. tine upon the Pleas de l'HAtel-de-Ville! Apollo himself descending upon earth to bring us harmony could not have been more welcome. Fourteen years after this splendid triumph Apollo pines in hunger, and the generous little journals follow him with the bitterest cries. " I have already assisted ut some ovations, political and otherwise. These blustering gooses fill me with • profound sadness. It is not jealousy—of that you may be certain. No ! I pity the recipient. I should rather see for him the tokens of a ' decent ' approbation as they phrase it in London. He would then be exp osedi to lees terrible re actions. _ _ GATE:I3OIAD. A special moeting of the Gateshead Town Coun cil was held on Tuesday for the purpose: of adopting en ad dress to her Majesty of condolence under the bereavement she has sustained in the death of the Prince Consort. The Mayor presided, and having briefly stated the object for which the meeting had been called, on the motion of Mr. Alderman Hodgson, the following *skims wee una nimously adopted: "May it please your Majesty,—We, the mayor, alder men, and burgesses of the borough of Gateshead, in coun cil assembled, desire to express to your Majesty our earnest and sincere sorrow and sympathy on the lamented death of his Royal Highness the Prince Consort. His Royal MA IM= the Prince Consort, during the whole period of his ali ases with your Majesty, was the active promoter sad the zealous advocate of all thine social movements which have for their object the advancement and moral elevation of the people. The large share which be took in the development of toe Ezhition of NM ; in the institution of the National Museum at South Kensington ; bin active and practical interest in the progress of agriculture, the encou ragement of art and development of science, will be re membered with grateful admiration when this age shall hive passed away; whilst his active assiz..ance to philanthro pic institutions, his social and private virtues, will ever live in remembraree. It is the fervent prayer of your Majesty's faithful subjects that in this great national and domestic trial your Majesty may be sustained and supported by the knowledge that the singleness of purpose, the stadiums of aim, the high muse of duty, the public merits, and the private virtues of your late illustrious Consort are remem bered and venerated by a united and devoted pee*: sad that your Majesty mar, by the blessing of God, be enabled to bear this seven and unexpected bereavement with forti tude and resiguatice ; that our Majesty may long be spared to discharge the important duties of your high posi tion as Queen of this peat country, and that you may be enabled to feel some alleviation in your great sorrow and trial in the affectionate regard of your royal children. to whom their departed father must ever be a high and illus trious eromple, and in the respectful and sincere gratitude sad regard of a loyal and devoted people." THE SCOTTISH ROMAN CATHOLICS. A pastoral address has been issued by Dr. Gull., Roman catholic bishop of the eastern district of &Wand, in which be refers, in the most feeling terms, to the heavy afflictioe which has befallen her Majesty. After alluding to the peaceful and prosperous tenor of her earlier life, the bishop proceeds as follows :—`• But • cloud has coins at length to overshadow the brightness of her long sod pros perous for the guards test watch the regal rights of earthly palaces cannot defend their threshold against human grief, when, like • veiled and mysterious stranger, sorrow obtrudes her ominous presence upon kings, and seats herself beside the bed on which they know that they shall die. Oh, now then more fervently, more lovingly than ever, let our com mon prayer be heard ; no longer, for • time, as the shout of joy or of triumph, but as the chastened utterance of a whole nation's mourning. God save the Queen! God save her bitter trial; for, weeping, she bath wept in the night, and her tears are upon her cheeks,' and she has ' become as a widow!' But we feed, beloved brethren, we may not re move the pall that screens the sacredness of her affliction, nor profane its billowed nature by venturing here to dwell unnoassisrily upon its depth. She has lost the distin guished Prime who wee the faithful companion of her life the toed husband of her choice, and the father of s lisr an t offspring. Well might she be forgiven if, while t beside his yet unclosed pave, she had forgotten for the time that she was still s' Posse. Let it be written then, GREAT NOWIIIII2Ig HOSPTTAL, Hrna't}asoes as the proudest rowed Of Victoria's Mir" as well as her Number of patient. for the week ending Dec. 21, 997, of undying claim to Ealltootro Potato* Wm% shoo unto' which 372 were new cases. "Suppose that our old ancestors bad not left to us the Salk law, and picture to yourselves a queen of France, young and fair, cheating for her husband • foreigner who would not be king. What • delicious dream for this young prince! but also what an awakening after the honeymoon of his popularity! What pamphlets, what couplets, and what caricatures! One of two things must happen—either this unfortueste man must shame fully Ay to escape from our popular injustice, or he must try to crush our and to overthrow our laws. Prince Albert, for whom • decent mourning has just bees asked and obtained yonder, has never been placed in this dangerous alternative. The nation received him _politely, not as a stranger, but as • guest ; lee rendered to England courtesy for courtesy ; he gave to the crown numerous heirs, and created a family truly royal. Modest and delicate, he kept discreetly within the pale of politics ; his dearest study wee the education of hie children ; in his hours of leisure he encourapd art and industry so well that., after having lived more than twenty years near the throne, without ever having base popular in the Preach souse of this terrible word,he dies regretted and esteemed by • great people, and his funeral is honoured by a ' decent mourning.' 0
