A judge may think he does the State good service by refusing to send a pretty girl to prison ; but there is no unalterable standard of beauty, and the ballet girl who fasctnated Mr. Payne may be a very cozmnon-place-looking young person in the eyes of a more severe judge. We think, therefore, that to ensure uniformity of pro cedure it is possibly the better plan to disregard the personal appearance of prisoners and the personal susceptibilities of judges, and to insist on a regular and equal administration of justice.

The Last Conde. e p x a c l t c e e .of under thet. circumstancesne. There h i l d Early in the reign of th e " Citizen King," th e l as t Prince of the historic line of Bourbon-Conde died u C ch "n su P s ic p g ic n i e o ' n at were really no just grounds for such a feeling, but it gathered strength from the fact that the deceased which his Prince had made a will shortly before his death, in which the bulk of his vast possessions was bequeathed to the King's fourth son, the Due d'Aumale. The young Prince, thus enriched, must have been looked upon as an extraordinary favourite of fortune when, soon of ter reaching man's estate, he received a magnifi cent dowry with the hand of his cousin, the daughter of the Prince of Salerno. To them, within a year, was born a son, on whom his Royal grandfather be stoived his own Christian name and the title of Prince of Conde. It was this child, Louis-Philippe-Marie - Leopold d'Orleaus, the heir of such hopes and of such apparently promising destinies, who died a few months ago, before he had reached his twenty-first year, on the distant shores of the Southern Pacific, and whose remains were consigned last Saturday to the temporary resting-place at Weybridge, where the ashes of his exiled kindred already reposed. The youth thus prematurely snatched away was a prince of great promise, clever, lively, high-spirited, well-instructed, formed, by the training of his father (the ablest of a not ungifted family), either to adorn the private station which fate would seem to have prepared for him, or to fulfil greater and higher destinies, if time and fortune should call him to them. Young as he was, the opportunity had been offered him of wearing a crown, which, with a wisdom beyond his years, but not, perhaps, beyond his experience, he decided to refuse. When it was found that our Prince Alfred would not be per mitted to accept the crown of Greece, the " wire pullers" of the popular movement in that country made overtures to the Due d'Aumale, proposing to give the crown to the young Prince of Conde, and assuring him that, if he were - willing to accept it, the vote of the Greek people ' would speedily make him king. The father, perhaps, with all his talents for organisation and administration rusting unused, and with so large a field opened for their active exercise, might baN9 been disposed to con sider the offer a tempting one, but he did not try to influence his son's choice, and left it entirely to be guided by his own judgment and reflection. The young Prince's decision was soon taken, and it was conveyed to those from whom the offer had come in language which showed how deeply the lesEons to be gathered from the history of his family had im pressed themselves on his youthful heart. That somewhat Odyssean range of travel which is consi dered a necessary part of the training of young men of rank and fortune, and especially of young princes in these times, seemed marked out with peculiar fitness for one whose grandfather had passed from the Palais Royal to be an aide-de-camp of Du mouriez, then to be a tutor in a Swiss academy, of ter that to be a travelling lecturer in Ame rica, . and, after returning to lead the life of a prince and a king in the 'land of his birth, had been forced to leave it again in his old age and die in exile. Among the chil dren of young Conde's uncles and aunts some had naturally taken service in the Austrian army, others had fought as soldiers of fortune under the flags of Italy, Spain, and the army of the Potomac, another had entered the navy of Portugal, and two had greatly improved their prospects by marriage in Brazil. A provident inspection of the manner and the cities of many men could not be omitted from the education of one of the most promising 'mem bers of so cosmopolitan a family, and therefore the Prince's grand tour was to have taken in India, Australia,_ South America, Mexico, the United States, anddana - da. - Unhappily, after having per formed but a comparatively small part of this ex tended journey, he was taken ill on his way to Sydney, and lauded there in a very prostrate con dition. He had begun, however, to improve rapidly, and seemed in a fair way of recovery, when the news of his grandmother, Queen Marie Amelie's death, suddenly reached him, and the shock of this an nouncement threw him back into a state which left no hope of cure. His death was peaceful and happy. Whatever Europe is tending to—whether that al ternative of " Cossack or Republican" which the First Napoleon foretold as its destiny at the end of this century, or something of a cross between the two, as the new Yankee-Cossack Alliance would seem to indi cate—it is unlikely in any event that any of those dis possessed royal tics,whose number increases so rapidly every day, will ever regain theii lost position. All the others have enjoyed a longer tenure of it than the Princes of the House of Orleans ; yet it is generally felt that they are better deserving of restoration (leaving out of sight the antecedents of the family) than most of their fellows in adversity. It is not likely that either Henri Cinq, or the Comte de Paris will ever have it in his power to create another Prince of Conde ; and, unless the young Duke of Guise should assume the title (which he has not yet done), it will cease to exist, except in history. To those who mourn his loss it will be some consolation to feel that he who last bore it was not unworthy of it.—London Review. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Sept. 22. Mr. J. N. M'Kenna is the first of the Irish Adul lamites who has ventured to address his constituents and to vindicate before them his conduct in voting with the majority against the late Government on the vital question of its existence. Considering the indignation expressed at the time by some organs of the Liberal party in this country, it might have been supposed that the hon. member for Youghal would have had some misgivings as to his reception, but it appears that he knew the sentiments of the electors better than his censors. A public meeting was held yesterday in the Court-house at Youghal, on the invitation of Mr. M'Kenna, the chair being occupied by Mr. Barry, chairman of the Town Com missioners, when the hon. member for the borough proceeded at once to justify his vote. He commenced by stating that when returned he had given a pledge that he would hold himself free from the obligations of an alliance with any English party, and that he would support only such a party in office as com mitted itself to a remedial policy for Ireland—which should include a reform of the land laws, of the law affecting education, and of the system of taxation. Having described the position of the late Govern ment, which was not in office on any policy of its own, but was, in fact, the Palmerston Ministry minus Palmerston, the hon. gentleman proceeded to demonstrate that—" The policy of the Whig Go vernment in respect to Ireland has been one of con sistent and continuous exhaustion, of exorbitant and increasing taxation, of taxation augmented not in proportion to the increasing requirements of the State, but augmented in the ratio of the obvious and proven deterioration of the sources of commercial and agricultural profit in Ireland." He asked; "What Ministries for the last 13 years were accountable for imposing new taxes on the manufacture, the property, the income of Ireland ? I tell you they were the Ministries of Lord Palmerston and Lord Russell, and they were all through the Ministry of William Ewart Gladstone as Chancellor of the Exchequer. There is something so astounding in Mr. Gladstone's application of the revenue screw to Ireland that I wonder a man of his great ability did not see that this country would necessarily sink under it,' and that, even for the purposes of exacting the maxi mum, he had turned the screw too fast. Backed by Liberal majorities in the House of Commons, the Government had increased the levy of taxation in Ireland in the ratio of 52 per cent. from 1853 to 1862, while during the same period the increase of taxation in wealthy Great Britain had only been in the ratio of 17 per cent. I have, therefore, no confidence in Whig Ministers so far as their policy for Ireland is concerned. Not content with ignoring the weak ened and impoverished condition of Ireland—not content with measuring out to her her full propor .tion of the increased bardens, as if she were hale and strong and prosperous—they levied off her people a million and a half sterling in excess of even this unrighteous proportion—that is to say, a million and a half a year of,,sterling money in excess of what should have been levied off her if she had been as progressive in wealth and population as Great Britain. For every man, woman, and child, for every unit the population diminished between 1841 and 1861, the Whigs levied an additional pound annual taxation between 1851 and 1861 on the residue of the population. Thus, from a population diminished by 2,300,000 an additional taxation of £2,300,000 per annum is raised. It is in a great degree because of this heartless taxation that the population of the country are fleeing away. If the present Government would stop this hemorrhage, let them tie up those arteries which their predeces sors have so mercilessly lacerated. A scale of taxa tion high and not quite quietly borne by one of the wealthiest manufacturing, mineral, and commer cial countries in the world, in the full career of her prosperity, is applied by unrelenting Whig Ministers to an agricultural population diminished under the pressure." Referring to the advantages of Govern ment patronage, Mr. M'Kenna asked —cg Of what moment is it to the people of Ireland whether Mr. Whiteside or Mr. Lawson adorns the Bench of Chief Justice? What juster judge could the Whigs have raised to the Bench than the late Master of the Rolls ? In what that concerns Ireland was Lord Carlisle better for Ireland than Lord Eglinton? What good did. Lord Kimberley do while in office which it is vain to hope for from Lord Abercorn ? Since the Ministry went out, however, we hear a great deal of what they intended to do. We have quite a vista of baffled hopes and a reproduction of dissolving views. There was the Tenant 'Bill they meant to carry, there was the Church Establishment they designed to abolish, there was union rating they desired to apply to Ireland. Bat a Ministry deserve no credit for good intentions. They introduced an English Electoral Reform Bill and a Distribution of Seats Bill, and if they had overthrown the Opposi tion and carried these measure's they would have been truly masters of the situation and could affoid to dispense with an Irish contingent in future. They staked themselves manfully to carry those measures. In order to do so (to use their own phraseology of campaign) they crossed the Rubicon, they blew up their bridges, and they sank their boats. But what Rubicon did they cross in respect to•the Irish Tenant Bill ? What bridges did they blow up in respect to Irish education ? What boats did they sink in refer ence to union rating, or any other question in which Ireland was presumed to have an interest? They had no Irish policy except to pick up Irish votes, if that may be called one ; but they had au imperial policy rising nearly to the level of a genuine coup d Oat ? and it was almost successful. Half-a-dozen men from one side or other would have made all the difference—half-a-dozen in a house of over 66 40 ; • I per cent. more of successful hitimidatiori•!or . ca jolery, and the thing was done, and if it were done Mr. Gladstone would no longer have occasion to put forth his irresistible attractions to captivate the votes of Irish patriots." The hon. member said he need not remind his audience of the countenance the late Government gave to anti-Catholic revolu tionists abroad. He said, " they were Liberals in religion and bigots in politics, and they have brought their Government to on end in a desperate effort to hand over the chief legislative influences of the empire to a single class, least likely to resist the domination of anti-Irish prejudice. But some one may say, Have they not the support of such men as John Bright; what have Ito say about him ? ' I say he is an honest, fearless, able English Radical ; I believe his sentiments towards this country are friendly and sincere. But he can do little to serve us. Where Ireland is concerned he has not the fol lowing in the House of Commons of his ordinary supporters. In what light, then, do I regard his intended visit? I regard it, as he seems to regard it himself, as one out of which little political good can come. fn fact, for my part, I regard the visit of John Bright, on the invitation of the late law officers of the Crown, as the approach of a decoy duck, or shall I say he is the innocent stalking horse in the shadow of whose broad shoulders Mr. Brand may take a deliberate shot' at a flock of unsuspect ing Irish members The man himself, however, is honest, sincere, and able, and however I may decline him as my leader in politics, I desire to speak of him as I think, with the respect due to his honesty and talent. I must caution the people of Ireland from indulging in the belief that John Bright's friendship is equivalent to the friendship of any English party." Mr. M'Kenna concludes as follows :—" It is high time that the people of Ireland should impress this duty on their representatives—to preserve them from the continuance of Whig taxation, and not that they should become the supporters of that party which has ground them down and impoverished them. If Ireland were as prosperous as England or Scotland, if the returns of trade, of manufacture, and the scale of wages were alike, then I, for one, would say tax us alike. But as they are not alike, as Ire land is still far behind England and Scotland in the ability to pay taxes, then a nominal equality is actual injustice. But now I anticipate the question. What chance have we of redress, great or small, from the present Ministry ? Well, I hope we have mine; I hope the recognition by the Chancellor of the Exchequer that Ireland suffers from a hemorrhage of her people will insure his attention to such mea sures of redress as are practicable. The Land Bill of the last Government was a defective measure, but it had some merits. They can easily give us a better, as a former Tory Government offered us a better ; but the Irish Liberal members helped to turn them out of office before anything was done. They can easily give us an Education Code in har mony with the views of strict Catholics and strict Protestants, equally protecting every denomination of student and pupil, and conceding us a real and not a mock charter for the Catholic University. They can reduce the taxation of Ireland—at least I feel confident they will do so, if the Whigs and the Irish Whig Liberals are not too many for them. The dearest object of my life is to see the people of Ireland prosperous, contented, and loyal. Loyalty of the subject is the crowning reward of good go vernment ; like mercy, it hath a twofold power, it blesses him that gives and him that takes ; but I would almost despair of seeing Ireland loyal, governed by men who have systematically fanned the flame of revolution abroad, and who have been to the Fenians of the Continent what some parties in the United States desire their Government to be towards the Irish Fenians." A resolution was then proposed by the Rev. T. Murphy, P.P., of Youghal, and was passed unanimously, approving the course pursued by Mr. M'Kenna ; also another resolution approving his supporting the present Government in the event of their policy for Ireland being satisfactory. Mr. Payne and the Ballet Girl. Wherrlast we hadoccasion to call attention, says the. Spectator, to the caprices of Mr. Payne, it was not in his judicial, but in his poetical, character that he invited the notice of the critics. Several years ago he made himself notorious by reciting, at a festival in honour of the illustrious bug destroyer, Mr. Harper Twelvetrees, some verses which he had himself composed in honour of the faithful partner in joy and sorrow of that worthy and enterprising person. These verses were not, we believe, the only fruits of Mr. Payne's poetical genius, and, judging, by internal evidence, we should be inclined to accuse him of the paternity of much of the senti mental jingle that may be heard any night in the music halls of the metropolis. It is a sad falling off for the intimate friend of Mr. Twelvetrces, the sacred poet of the domestic hearth, to become the defender of oppressed ballet girls, but Mr. Payne is evidently one of those gushing gentlemen who pre serve till late in life the fresh feelings of youth in all their greenness, and when the fair Miss Simmons, at tired in the fascinating costume of the corps de ballet, was brought before him on the charge of stealing a cloak, he was as sincerely awestruck with admiration of her charms as if he had been a country-bred young ster paying court to one of the 300 fairies whose light ness of foot in the dance is the pride and glory of the Alhambra. " The might and majesty of loveli ness" in the felon's dock quite overpowered him. The jury found that there were extenuating cir cumstances in the case, and, as the prisoner was very young, recommended her to mercy; but the judge apparently took care to let every one know that this recommendation had weight with him chiefly be cause Miss Simmons had a pretty face. After ad dressing her, according to one report, in language which will do the girl more harm than if she had been sent to suffer the stern discipline of a prison for five years, be remanded her for further inquiry, and at a second interview remitted her sentence, and gave her back to her friends with the admonition to be careful not again to do any act that would ex pose her good name even to suspicion. It is quite clear that, supposing Miss Simmons to have been perfectly innocent of the crime laid to her charge, is Miss Simmons this way of treating an inexperi enced and pretty girl may have ruined her forlife. unusually strong-minded,Unss is she now le e probably convinced th at the beauty she pos sessesvaluabl to her than good con duct is far more and integrity ; and, if she go on from bad to worse , relying always on the effect of her " fair hair, light blue eyes, small mouth, and regular featur t o avert the just punishment of he r errors,r. Payne will be chiefly responsible for the c atastrophe. Still worse results will foll ow f rom th e M " creation of a legal precedent in favour of accepting the plea of personal beauty in mitigation of punish ment. Women in general will not resent the arbi trary injustice of Mr. Payne's decision, because there is no woman so plain that she does not believe her charms are powerful enough to move the heart of. the sternest judge, and therefore the release of Miss Simmons will only be accepted by womankind in Consumption Hospital. A quarterly court of governors of this charity was held in the board-room of the hospital on Thurs day afternoon, Lieut.-General the Hon. Thos. Ash burnham in the chair. There were present the Hon. E. B. Wrottesley, Mr. P. J. Anguarde, Mr. T. P. Beckwith, Mr. J. Colebrook, Mr. T. F. Crew, Dr. Dickson, the Rev. T. W. Franklyn, Mr. W. Need ham, Mr. H. E. Pellew, Mr. W. Thomas, &c. The minutes of the last two courts were signed, and an abstract of the minutes of the subsequent meetings of the committee of manageroent was read. The secretary then read the report of the committee of management, from which it appeared that owing to the large number of applicants on the list it had been found necessary that the full com plement of beds (210) should be kept occupied till a later period in the summer than usual ; a tempo rary and small reduction would be required in order to carry out the customary annual repairs. The out-patients' attendances also continued large. The committee had still reason to acknowledge ?hank fully the support given to the charity by the general public and by the clergy. The following legacies had been announced :—Miss Ann Bailey, £5OO Con sols ; Mrs. Sheldon, £lOO Consols ; Mr. W. IL Powell, half of residue ; W. C. Grove, Esq., £lOO ; Mrs. Story, £5OO duty free; R. Churchward, Esq., £lOO ; Mrs. Henniker Wilson, £lOO. This source of income continued to be an im portant one, as affording a means of making up the difference between the annual subscriptions and the year's expenses, the amount of the latter being still about double that of the former. A summary of the Medical Committee's report on the cases of the patients who returned on May 31 from wintering in Madeira had been published in the medical and other papers. The committee did not consider that the results of the experiment were sufficiently en couraging to justify them at present in repeating it. A sub-committee had been appointed to investi gate and report upon the subject of the proposed alterations in the rules as to the admission of in patients, referred back to them by the annual court for further consideration ; and, secondly, to inquire and report whether increased accommodation for in and out-patients could be safely and conveniently provided, either by enlarging the present hospital buildings, or by any other and what means. A meeting of the sub-committee had been held, and they were now awaiting the report of the architect. The appointment of dental surgeon, being tenable for three years only, had been declared vacant in accordance with the rules. Mr. Howard Howard, who had ably discharged the duties of the office since its creation in 1863, being eligible for re-election, the committee had much pleasure in reappointing him. The number of patients admitted between May 31 and August 9 (the date of the report) was 184 ; dis charged, many materially relieved, 175 ; died, 27 ; new out-patients' cases, 1,599. The report having been adopted, on the motion of Mr. W. THOMAS, seconded by Mr. CREW, The Rev. T. W. FRANKLYN asked several ques tions, both as to the amount of benefit which te suited from treatment in the hospital and as to its permanent character. These inquiries elicted from Dr. Symes Thompson very satisfactory answers. It was then moved by the Rev. T. W. Franklyn, seconded by the Hon. E. B. Wrottesley, and unani mously resolved, "That in pursuance of the recom mendation of the committee of management, the Lord Bishop of Lichfield be elected a vice-president of this charity." A cordial vote of thanks to the chairman (the Hon. General Ashburnham), moved by Mr. W. Thomas, and seconded by Mr. H. E. Pellew, closed the proceedings. Death of Dean Richmond. The intelligence of the death of Dean Richmond will create a profound sensation in business and political circles throughout the country. He had been long and conspicuously connected with rail way transactions throughout the country, and was president of the New York Central Railroad. His life was one of adventure, generally resulting, in later years particularly, in success. He love d daring financial hazards, yet was never devoted to the hoarding of wealth. He loved to make money, but was generous and often prodigal in its expen diture. Personal he was frugal, temperate, and free from ostentation or display. Dean Richmond was born at Woodstock, Vermont, on the 31st of March, 1801. His parents were poor, and he was early compelled to make his own way through the world, with little education except such as he acquired in his intercourse with men. He was employed for some time, we believe, on the Erie Canal; after which he lived for several years at Salt Point, now the first ward in the city of Syra cuse. H e gained in this time the reputation of being a shrewd, observing young man, a little reckless, as was too much the case with dwellers in that locality, but honourable and faithful in all his dealings with men. A peculiar manner was ac quired by him at this time, which adhered to him through life. lle removed to the western part of the State, and finally made his home at Batavia. Here he was successful in business beyond expectation, having great luck in making investments. For example, in 1842, when the stocks of the State of New York had greatly depreciated, as a result of the ruinous Whig canal policy, he invested his entire capital in them. Mr. Flagg, the Comptroller, remonstrated with him. " I expect," he replied, " that under your administration they will rise to par. We made you Comptroller for that purpose." His anticipa tions were fulfilled. When the two great factions became actively hostile in the ranks of the Democratic party, Mr. Richmond planted himself upon the side of the Radi cal wing. In 1848 h e gave his energies and mo ney freely to the advancement of the free-soil Democratic party ; but directly afterward became favourable to the reunion of 1849. After this he was widely known in political circles as among the railroad kings. lie gave his days to bus i nes s and his leisure h ours t o po li t i cs, exce lli ng e qually in both pursuits. He became known as a power" at Albany by the passage of the famous Consolidation Act of 1553, by which the fifteen lines of railroad extending or projected from the Hudson River to Lake Erie were united into one corporation ; and he was ever afterward a leading manager in the affairs of the New York Central Railroad. For many years he was vice-president of the Central Railroad Company, and on the re tirement of Mr. Corning three years since he suc ceeded to the presidency.—Netv York Post.
