It will effect an interchange of traffic with the etropolitan Railway, and through that line with the Great ) , ,,. Northern, the Great Western, and the Midland ii7mays, and it must become practically the City termi nus of the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway. The extraordinary expansiveness of metropolitan rail- T il 3r traffic has now been most abundantly demonstrated. ,ve Metropolitan Railway, with only 31 miles opened, the heart of the City as yet unreached, carries more iC• etagers than the Great Eastern with 665 miles ; than 1 .1 : 3 ,,,Li0nd0n and South-Western with 513 miles; or the p a Z a nd with 641 miles opened ; and the receipts from e4 , e ngers per mile per week exceed, by more than 50 per am ', the united receipts per mile per week for passengers y goods of the seven great railways having termini in peT. heed of the property required for the line will be less R ,.,"',Lie than that of any other metropolitan railway, and th e - i, u lciently provided for by the estimates.

SECRETARY (PRO TEM.)—John Healy, Esq. TEMPORARY OFFICES. 1, Royal Exchange-buildings, London, E.C. PROSPECTUS. The manufacture of Ordnance upon the principle patented by Captain Blakely has for upwards of five years been car ried on by private enterprise. The demand for this class of Ordnance has, however, so largely increased that the works established at Southwark by the present Blakely Ordnance Company have proved altogether inadequate, and it has been found necessary to establish a manufactory on a much larger scale. Extensive works are in course of construction at Greenwich, to which it is proposed to transfer the operations of the Company. Both in Europe and America, as well as at home, the Blakely Ordnance is daily coming into more extensive use, and during the last six years large orders have been exe cuted for Russia, Portugal, Italy, Egypt, Sweden, China and Japan, Morocco, Turkey, and several important States in North and South America, including the Confederate Government. As an evidence of the remunerative character of this de scription of manufacture, it may be stated that the net profits in the current year amount to nearly £60,000. With the view of providing the increased capital which is requisite to carry on the manufacture on so large a scale, it is proposed to form a Limited Company, to be called the Blakely Ordnance Company (Limited). The services of Captain Blakely have been retained as Managing Director. The present efficient staff will also continue in office, as follows :—Josiah Vavasseur, Esq., C.E., Resident Engineer; Mr. Campbell (late of the Royal Laboratory , Woolwich) Superintendent of Laboratory and Shell Factory; General Burnaby, Royal Artillery, Proof-master. The Directors have entered into an agreement for the purchase of the existing leases, plant, premises, and good will for the sum of £225,000; payable by instalments over two years, and £150,000 in debentures bearing £6 per cent. interest. In forming their estimate of the value of the plant, leases, fixtures, machinery, stock, and woodwill, the Directors have been guided by a valuation of the same by a competent Engineer. The goodwill has been rated at two and a half yews' purchase. As an evidence of their confidence in the undertaking, the vendors have agreed to guarantee that the profits of the undertaking shall amount to a sum sufficient to pay a minimum dividend at the rate of £l5 per cent. per annum for three years on the paid-up capital for the time being of the present issue of shares. As it has boen considered impossible to estimate equit ably the value of the patents, it has been agreed that they shall be transferred to the Company, the present Pro prietor receiving £2O per cent. of the net profits for the next seven years. The Company will enter into possession of the works in Southwark and Greenwich on the 30th of June instant, but will be entitled to the benefit of all contracts executed, and profits made, since the 30th June, 1864. The vendors re serve to themselves the right of subscribing for one-third of the present issue of shares. A copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association can be inspected at the Offices of the Solicitors, 43, Chan cery-lane. Prospectuses and Forms of Application for Shares can be obtained at the Offices of the Brokers of the Company, and of the Solicitors. As some applicants may desire to take full advantage of the guaranteed dividend, by paying up their shares in full, two Forms of Application are annexed, one for Ordinary Shares and the other for fully paid-up Shares.

For notices of this startling work see the "Saturday Re view" of April 1, entitled "Quacks and Quackery ;" the "Weekly Dispatch" of April 9, "The Quacks and their Crimes ;" " The Sun" of April 12, " 'Detector's' Broadside on Quacks and Quackery." GUIDE TO THE QUACKS OF LONDON. A Series of Papers relative to Quacks, which appeared in the " Medical Circular," with the signature of " Detector," has been republished in the form of a short pamphlet. The reader of " Punch" should read this pamphlet also. He has often read, in the pages of "Punch," of certain Quacks, frau dulent anu noisome, who obtain money by false pretences, and more money by menaces and extortion, from green young men. For their names, which " Punch" would not advertise, he has referred his readers t o the lower corner of the advertisino columns of low newspapers, amongst which too mauy of Mr." Punch's" contemporaries, especially in the country, may still be enumerated. But now he begs to pub lish the information that a nominal list of these miscreants, with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning them, needful to be known, will be found in the pamphlet above referred to, which is entitled "Revelations of Quacks and Quackery," and is to be had at the " Medical Circular " Office, 20, King William-street, Strand, W.C. The vile practices, the monstrous impudence, the cruel rapacity, and the enormous gains of the obscene tribe of Quacks, the mischief they do, the ruin they work, even to the causation of suicide, are Hilly set for, h in " Revelations of Quacks aud Qackery." And mark especially that, as aforesaid, the names of the Quacks a. e published. The pamphlet in question thus constitutes a regular Quack Di rectory, by conulting which every young man may know where he may go if he wishes to get plundered and destroyed. Buy, therefore, reader, by all means buy " Revelations of Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse you, while they invoke your indignation and disgust. 01 course you (10 not want it on account of its warnings for your own sake, but you doubtless do for that of the many simple tons with whom you must be acquainted, if your acquaint ance is large. " Who are the Quacks that 'Punch' means I" Consider what it is to he able to answer this question of the young and inexperienced, and, for charity's sake, if for no other, go and provide yourself with "Revelations of Quacks and Quackery," by Detector.—Punch, April 12.

Last evening Mr. Phillips, one of the candidates for the representation of the borough of Finsbury, met the electors of the St. Giles's and Bloomsbury districts at the Freemasons' Tavern—Mr. George Routledge, the eminent publisher, in the chair. The hon. candidate addressed the meeting at some length, advocating a large extension of the suffrage, including a lodger franchise, the ballot, the equalisa tion of the poor-rates, the abolition of church-rates, a large reduction in the national expenditure, the principle of non-intervention in the affairs of other countries, and the reform of the city corporation. He also expressed his disapprobation of the Permis sive Bill. Several questions having been put to the hdn. candidate and replied to, a resolution was moved. by Mr. Kingsford and seconded by Mr. Rigg, declaring Mr. Phillips a fit and proper candidate for the representation of the borough, and pledging the support of the meeting. The resolution was adopted with few dissentients. The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman. BEWDLEY. Sir T. E. Winnington, the sitting member, it is understood, offers himself for re-election for the united boroughs of Bewdley and Stourport. Sir Thomas is popular in the locality, and it is not ex peizted that his re-election will be opposed. CALNE. A feeble opposition has been got up at Caine to the re-election of Mr. Lowe. Mr. Griffiths, a free-school Reformer of Worcestershire, has presented himself at Caine, and addressed the electors as a " Moderate," and in the belief that a great majority of the people of this country are opposed to the ultra opinions of democrats on the one hand, and bigots on the other. He has no chance against Mr. Lowe. COLCHESTER. In the Liberal interest Mr. Gurdon Rebow is very successfully prosecuting his canvass of the electors. Mr. T. J. Miller and Mr. P. 0. Papillon (the pre sent Conservative members), after a preliminary canvass of the electors, issued an address on Saturday last, in which they say that the result of their canvass justifies them in looking forward with confidence to a speedy repetition of that victory which crowned the struggle in 1859. They cannot refrain from entering with regret their protest against the un worthy courses resorted to by their opponents in order to divert Conservative votes from their legiti mate double channel, and they appeal boldly to the good sense and manliness of ' every independent elector to insure that the coming battle be fought with fair weapons. DROITWICH. It is fully understood that the Right Hon. Sir J. S. Pakington, who has been returned for Droitwitch eight times, and whose residence (Westwood-park) is close to the borough, will offer himself to his neighbours for re-election, and that he will be unop posed. Whig and Tory unite on these occasions in returning the right hon. baronet, but, should he withdraw, the Liberal element is believed to be strong enough in the borough to return a candidate of quite another colour. Sir John, however, has declined offers that have been made to him by large and important constituencies. DUDLEY. At present Mr. Truscott and Mr. Sheridan have the field to themselves for Dudley. Both are Libe ral-Conservatives or Conservative-Liberals. Mr. Chandos Wren Hoskyns and Mr. Marshman, brother-in-law of the late General Sir Henry Havelock, have been mentioned as Liberal candidates. DUMFRIES BURGHS. Col. J. Clark-Kennedy has come forward to op pose Mr. Ewart, and in his address says that, if returned to Parliament, he will give a general sup port to that party of enlightened progress whose measures, under the leadership of Lord Palmerston, haVe conferred such unprecedented prosperity upon the country. In the course of his professional life he has seen so much of the miseries and waste of war that his efforts will be steadily directed to the main tenance of peace, although he believes that, in the face of recent events, it is peculiarly necessary that this country should be thoroughly prepared for defence from aggression, and for the maintenance of its national honour. With reference to the ex tension of the suffrage, he will not support any measure based upon the theory that the franchise is a right, believing that this would inevitably lead to universal suffrage , but he will aid in carrying any measure framed with the object of removing ano malies in the representative system, and for extend ing the franchise to those classes who, by their education, intelligence, and independence, have shown themselves worthy of the privilege. GREAT YARMOUTH. The Liberal candidates, Mr. A. Brogden and Mr. J. C. Marshman, have addressed a meeting of the party. They express confidence in the Government of Lord Palmerston. They are introduced to the borough by Mr. E. W. Watkin, M.P. for Stockport, who sat for Yarmouth for a short time in 1857. Mr. Marshman and Mr. Brogden have commenced a canvass. It does not yet appear, however, that they have finally determined to contest the borough against Sir E. H. K. Lacon and Mr. Goodson, the selected Conservative candidates. Their decision on this head will be announced when they have proceeded more fully with their canvass. HARWICH. In the Conservative interest Captain Jervis and Mr. John Kelk are in the field. In the Liberal Mr. Michael Wills (of Portland-place, London) has just issued an address respecting his canvass of the elec tors, in which he says that his canvass has been so satisfactory that in fair fight he feels certain of suc cess, but the powerful influences always in opera tion against the Liberal cause demand from them unceasing energy and well organised union. HERTFORDSHIRE. A large and very influential meeting of the Con servative electors was held on Saturday last at the Euston Hotel. Mr. Abel Smith and Mr. H. E. Surtees were present, and stated their intention of again contesting the county at the forthcoming election, and a letter was read from Sir E. Bulwer Lytton expressing his determination to adopt a similar course. No addresses have at present been issued by their Liberal opponents. KIDDERMINSTER. Although several candidates in the Conservative interest have been spoken of as about to come for ward to oppose the re-election of the Hon. Colonel White none have yet put in an appearance. The Conservative party has lost several of its stanch ad herents since the last election, and although at the last registration they boasted of a gain there appears reason to doubt the fact. KIRKCIJOI3RIGHTSIIIRE. Mr. Mackie leas issued an address soliciting re election, HQ will be unopposed. LISKEARD. Mr, Ralph Osborne has addressed the following le + Aer to the electors of Liskeard :-- " Gentlemen, —Acting under the advice and with the concurrence of the leading Whigs and Liberals in your borough, I lately issued an address intimating my intention of asking a renewal of your support at the ensuing general election. Until within the last few days I was led to suppose that my Parliamentary conduct had been in accordance with your sentiments and my own declarations when honoured by your selection in August, 1859. I was then invited to come forward by two conflicting sections of the party,who had agreed, as it now app.ears,onlyto postpone their differ ences for that special occasion. You returned me to Parlia ment as an independent supporter of Liberal principles ; not as the blind follower of a particular Minister. I have acted on that understanding. Without being a thick-and thin adherent of the Government, my humble aid has always been given to the enactment of such Liberal measures as have emanated from the Administration. Mr. Gladstone's financial projects and fiscal reforms have had my constant support. To the last I stood by the Ministerial scheme of Parliamentary Reform when deserted by its parents. But it is now objected to me that I have not proved sufficiently docile to the crack of the Treasury whip, because in the course of last session it was my misfortune to differ from those in whose company I generally vote on the subject of the Danish Duchies, and because I then ventured to impugn the policy of Lord Palmerston, which, in my judgment, tended to embroil England in an uncalled-for and costly war with the united Powers of Germany, and also abstained from joining in a vote of confidence in the author of this policy. Anticipating objections that might be made to my absence from the division, I called a public meeting of the constituency, and while explaining and defend ing my views, then and there offered to resign the representation should a majority so determine. A few worthy individuals, more intent on domestic tfian foreign relations, questioned the correctness of my opinions on the Permissive Bill, but the meeting unanimously passed a vote of thanks for my independent services in Parliament. It has now transpired, at the eleventh hour, that an influen tial section of the electors, acting in secret conclave, have resolved to withdraw their support,on the ground that lam not so devoted a follower of Lord Palmerston as they could desire, or would direct. In this dilemma lam counselled by some of my late friends (in order to prevent a renewal of that schism which I was originally called in to heal) to resign the seat. Accordingly, as it does not suit my ideas of a representative to be returned as a Treasury dependent or provincial delegate, I have adopted their suggestion, and as I read to-day in the public prints, for the first time, that you have been provided by the managers of your poli tical concerns with a more congenial candidate, I lose no time in forthwith resigning the honour which was never sought by me, and have made application for the steward ship of the Chiltern Hundreds.—l am, &c., "RALPH OSBORNE." LIVERPOOL. Mr. Robert Hutchison having declined to contest the borough, Mr. S. R. Graves, another ex-mayor, was yesterday unanimously requested by the Con servative leaders to allow his name to be put forth as their candidate in opposition to Mr. J. C. Ewart. Mr. Graves will give his answer to-clay. LYME REGIS AND CHARMOUTH. Mr. J. Wright Treeby, the Conservative candi date for the representation of this borough, has been warmly received by his supporters. Mr. John Hawkshaw, of 43, Eaton-place, London, is the Liberal candidate in the place of Colonel Pinney, who does not intend again to offer himself. NORTH NOTTS. Rumours are in circulation that the Conservatives have determined to bring forward Mr. John Cha worth Musters, of Annesley, as a candidate in the place of Lord Robert Clinton, who, it is believed, will not again offer himself. It is also said that Mr. Musters will receive the support of the Newcastle interest. This is hardly probably, as the present Duke of Newcastle throughout his political career has always been found in the Liberal ranks. NOTTINGHAM. All the four candidates addresed the constituency on Tuesday evening, and were each well received. All expressed themselves confident of success. Sir R. Clifton addressed two meetings of the electors and non-electors in the town. Messrs. Morley and Paget met their friends at Radford, in the suburbs, and Mr. Martar, the Conservative candidate, spoke from the window of the George Hotel, an old elec tioneering place, in the Conservative interest. SALISBURY. Mr. M. H. Marsh, who some weeks ago issued an address to the electors of this city, intimating that circumstances, over which he had no control, ren dered it necessary that he should visit his property in Australia at the time of the general election, addressed his supporters at the Assembly-rooms on Monday evening. He said that he is opposed to lowering the franchise, and that he considers the best of the working classes already represented. An extension of the franchise he will support. Ile said that he would leave on Thursday, with every confi dence that the electors will support him in his absence just as heartily as if he were present. At the termination of Mr. Marsh's address a vote of confidence in him was carried, only one hand being held up against it. On Tues day Mr. Chapman (Conservative) issued an address to his friends, conveying his warmest thanks " for the generous and hearty support" they have given him during his present canvass. It is the opinion that there will be a close contest between Mr. Chapman and Mr. Hamilton. SOUTH SHIELDS. Mr. Ingham, the member for this borough, has issued an address offering himself for re-election. He says :—" As to questions of general policy, I have given a cordial support to the Government of Lord Palmerston, excepting as to some measures, and especially as to the franchise, where they fell short of what I think the people have a right to require." As there is no appearance or likelihood of oppo sition to Mr. Ingham's re-election, the Liberals of South Shields are lending their energies to secure the return of the two sitting members for the Northern Division of Durham, there being a large number of freehold votes in that town and the large adjacent manufacturing town of Jarrow. TEWKESBURY. There will be a sharp fight for both seats at Tewkesbury at the general election. Only a few years ago both were occupied by Liberals, but Mr. Humphrey Brown's membership did that party no little harm, and the Hon. J. Lygon sat for some time before. At the death of his father, Earl Beauchamp, he took his seat for West Worcester shire, when Mr. J. R. Yorke, a Conservative, was elected in his place without opposition. Mr. Yorke and the other sitting member (Mr. Martin) will offer themselves for re-election, and the Conserva tive party intend putting forward Mr. W. E. Dowdeswell, of Pull Court, near Tewkesbury, who has considerable influence in the borough, in con junction with Mr. Yorke. On the other hand, Sir Cusack P. Roney, who also is connected with Tewkesbury, will, it is said, be the second Liberal candidate. WARWICK. There will be a spirited contest at the election in this quiet borough. The Liberals have determined to invite a candidate to come forward at the ensuing general election, and Mr. Arthur Wellesley Peel has been unanimously fixed upon. Mr. Peel issued an address yesterday. He says that, from whatever quarter liberal measures may proceed, he shall en deavour to consider them on their own merits, irre spective of party considerations, and he shall advo cate, not wild theories, but such steps as the spirit of the times and the force of public opinion point out and justify. He believes that the suffrage may be advantageously extended, and considers the fears which have been expressed of even moderate mea sures of reform to be unsound and unworthy, and to proceed from a class of minds which regard all change as deterioration. WESTBURY. Mr. Edward St. Maur has offered himself as a can didate for this borough in the Liberal interest. He will advocate the total abolition of Church-rates, and is of opinion that sincere reformers should combine in furthering a measure sufficiently comprehensive to secure for the industrial classes a direct represen tation in the Legislature, without annulling the in fluence of those electors whose power has for 30 years been exercised with so much advantage to the wel fareof the people at large. He will support Lordral merston'fadministration, hopingthat a Government WORCESTERSHIRE (WEST). Mr. F. W. Knight and the Hon. F. Lygon, the sitting members (both Conservatives), will offer themselves for re-election. A Liberal candidate has been spoken of, but has not yet declared himself. The Beauchamp and Coventry interest is considered too powerful for a Liberal candidate. Reported New Agent in Naval Warfare. MARSEILLES, June 12. The Messager du Midi publishes the following letter from Toulon, dated 11th instant : " The maritime Powers who spend fabulous sums in order to discover a system of iron plating for ren dering vessels invulnerable, seek at the same time the means of destroying them as quickly as possible. It is with the latter object that a decisive experi ment was made here this morning of an electrical machine invented by the Maritime Prefect, a vice admiral. " The result exceeded all expectation, and hence forth, thanks to this new infernal machine, we shall be able to dispense with all dykes, batteries, and other old expedients hitherto employed for the de fence of the ports and roads of the empire. If even an enemy's squadron venture to come before a French port it will be easily pulverised before hav ing time to fire a single cannon shot. This was de monstrated to-day by the fact that an old ship 25 yards long by 10 yards broad, was raised from the water, shattered to fragments, and sunk in less than. a second at a simple signal of the inventor. "The destructive effects of this machine are so terrible that it was allowed there was no it - sine:4l vessel solid enough to resist such a shock. " What is very remarkable in this new eng ine war is, that it is not necessary for the enemy's vessel to strike it in order to produce the explosion, as with the Russian and American submarine torpe does. The French system is surer, and, above all, more expeditious. The electric spark reaches the enemy's vessel and destroys it with the rapidity of lightning. " The ironclad ram Taureau was successfully launched this afternoon, amid the applause of from 15,000 to 20,000 spectators, including many foreigners." Oxford and the Great Western Railway. The following paper on this subject has been issued by Mr. Charles Neate, M.P. : " Mr. Goldwin Smith, in the paper which has been cir culated nuclei the above title, has, I think, pressed a littlo too far the claims of the University on the city, and the obligation of the latter to confine its growth and regulate its pursuits according to the convenience of the former. "It is, no doubt, true that Oxford would be but littlo known to fame were it not for the University ; but it still would have been a flourishing and considerable place if left to itself from the natural advantages of its position. Before the University can be properly said to have existed Oxford was already of sufficient importance to be frequently re sorted to as the residence of the Sovereign. The University grew up at first under the shelter and protection of the city, and if the citizens are now too plainly told that the posi tions are reversed, many of them may be tempted to regret that their predecessors were not left to enjoy the advantages of a more humble but more independent position. .. The citizens of their own accord are apt enough to re member the ties both of interest and feeling which binds them to the University, but with regard at least to their own interests they claim to be the best judges, and in this instance they believe that the addition to the population of a considerable number of the highest class of workmen, the constant demand throughout the year for skilled labour, will be a benefit, not only to the tradesman, who will have to supply a new demand, but to the workmen and artisans, who will have new and higher modes of employment open to them. "It is said that the railway company will, in the first in stance, bring their own workmen to their new quarter, but it is not probable that they will even begin with none but foreigners, still less is it likely that these will continuo to be recruited from their own ranks, like an Indian caste. There will be some interchange of employment between them and the Oxford artisans, according to the tastes and capacities of each, and there will bo opportunities given to the clever youth of the poorer classes in Oxford which they do not now possess. "It is assumed—l. know not on what grounds—that the new colony will have now shops, or co-operative stores of their own. If it be so, the Oxford workmen at any rate may learn a useful lesson from them ; but, from what I hear, this is not likely to be the case at all generally. They can not, at any rate, build or furnish their own houses, nor is it likely that they will either kill their own meat or grow their own vegetables; and, as to the opposition objection—that the new demand will cause a rise of price in such articles— I believe that a more steady and continuous demand' will rather act the other way, by giving the producer a greater certainty of return and a longer time to make his profit in. "As to the probable increase of pauperism with which the citizens are threatened,they may well make light of that, knowing how very insignificant has been the burden hitherto thrown upon them in that way by the settlement of the Great Western Railway among us, how very much more they have gained from them in the way of rates than they have had to spend on their account in relief ; and they rather look to a diminution, at any rate, in the comparative rate of pauperism, from the example of a more industrious and sober class of working men than those which they now owe to the presence of the University. I don't mention this as a. reproach to the University—it is the necessary result of the residence in Oxford, during six months of the year only, of an idle and luxurious class ; but the University would do well to remember what is the class which it chiefly contri butes to the population of the city before it objects to the introduction of such a body of men as the workmen of the Great Western Railway Company are likely to prove. " I have hitherto written as a citizen. I would now say something as to the interests of the University in the matter, which the citizens, I am sure, are far from disregarding. As a member of the University, I don't see what there is to alarm us so much in the prospect of the threatened invasion, and if there is any inconvenience likely to arise from it, it is what we have no right to shrink from, but must meet in the best way we can. " The population of Oxford is now over 30,000. It is proposed to increase it by about 5,000, probably not so many, and those of a class above the average of the present working men among us. No doubt any increase in the size of the town, or in the number of its inhabitants, seems likely, at first sight, to increase the difficulty of maintain ing discipline as it is now maintained ; but we do not over-rate the benefit of that discipline, the necessity of maintaining it all by University authorities, and, as a. Oxford e m i e a n t t c e y r , w o f r f h o i m f e a h et' t h h a e h s considerably greater than that with which we are now ashvaepr very p e h a grn t ee d da i ti s n c i i n p tch l r i ee n al e as se l t o i 3n s t o t yh i e n ea r F un r l e ina n t ic t orne e as ffi oe - f threatened ? " The new colony will be settled apart from the Univer sity portion of the town, close upon the great city recreation ground, where they will find their natural outlet in holiday times , and if we may meet them occasionally in our own more usual walks, there are I hope not many among us who would object to it. "We may think, indeed, that the world is getting too full ; we may wish, at least, that it were less so, but we have no right to decline our share of the general burden ; and if there is any benefit to be derived, as I hope and believe there is, from the moral influences of Oxford, from the facilities of edlinatir. fnr .11 r 0.„,,„,, abound, from the very sight, as Mr. Goldwin Smith thinks, of the buildings in which our work has been carried on for ages, we should be loath to deprive of that benefit those by whose work wo are so ready to profit for our own convenience. This is not the first time that a groundless panic has been raised in Oxford about the Great Western Railway. The first approaches of our great modern benefactor were met by us in the same distrustful spirit in which we now resist its further advances, and the opposition we then offered to the passage of the railway in its natural line proved, unhappily, but too successful. "We are all of us, I believe, sorry for the mischief which we then did to ourselves in the loss of convenient communi cation, to the country in the great waste.of its capital, and, above all, to the city, which we are now reproaching with. the benefits which we have conferred on it. _ " It is now too late to repair our error ; but let us at least remember it as a warning against the counsels of those whot would advise us to repeat it."
