Yesterday a meeting of the general committee of the Metropolitan Visiting and Relief Association was held. at 21, Regent-street. The Bishop of London presided, and there were present Lord Ebury, Sir W. Farquharson, Mr. T. Harkey, M.P., Mr. J. C. Colquhoun, the Rev. J. V. Povah, Mr. R. C. Han bury, M.P., Mr. Has.sard, and others. Letters were read from a large number of clergymen, principally in the east of London, acknowledging the society's grants, and stating how they had been applied. One of them (Rev. T. 11. Ball) stated that in his district there were 144 orphansfrom cholera. Another (Rev. Mr. Bolton) said he had 130 ; Rev. R. H. Asherton 72, Rev. Mr. Vaughan 30. All who had written to the committee had large numbers of children thrown upon their care. The bishop spoke earnestly in re ference to the claims of these orphans, and the fol lowing resolutions were unanimously agreed to :-1. That the sub-committee be requested to communi cate with the clergy and district visiting societies to ascertain what sum is required in the case of each orphan recommended, and that the sub-committee' be empowered to make grants not exceeding in any case £25 for each orphan. 2. That, looking to the present state of the fund, the committee are of opi- Ilion that they can afford a sum of not less than £5,000 for the relief of orphans. was agreed that a copy of the following letter should be sent to each of the clergyapplyingforassistance :—" 21, Regent street, S.W., Sept. 13.—Rev. Sir,—l am desired to request your attendance here any day, except Sa turday, at 3.30 p.m., thatyoumay state to the com mittee in explanation of the paper which you have forwarded respecting orphans the exact sum which you require for each, and the mode in which it is proposed that each child shall be relieved or tempo rarily provided for.—l am, &c., W. C. SHONE, Sec. It was also agreed that grants shall be made daily as heretofore on the application of the clergy and district visiting societies for the relief of sufferers from cholera and convalesbents. MANSION-HOUSE RELIEF COMMITTEE. Yesterday, at 1 o'clock, a meeting of the Work ing Committee was held, the Lord Mayor in the chair, there being also present Sir Mordaunt Wells, the Rev. F. G. Bloomfield, Mr. Thomas Fowell Buxton, chairman of tho House Committee of the London Hospital ; Mr. R. N. Fowler, Mr. R. B. Wade, Mr. W. J. Maxwell, Mr. H. W. Ripley, Dr. Andrew Clark, physician to the London Hospital ; Mr. Robert Wigram, Mr. Richard Hoare, and Mr. Samuel Hoare. A very influential deputation from the managing committee of the Seamen's Hospital ship Dread nought attended before the committee, accompanied by Mr. Kemball Cook, the secretary, and Dr. Rooke, the medical officer, to explain their operations with regard to the visitation of cholera. The deputation stated that Dr. Rooke, the medical officer, had re presented to the Committee of the Hospital that cases of cholera were being daily brought from the river to the Belleisle (their cholera ship), and that on inquiry he found that no visitation of the ships in the river had taken place, or was taking place. Dr. Rooke gave it as his opinion that it would be highly advisable and tend to check the spread of the disease if the ships on the river were visited daily. The committee thereupon instructed their secretary, Mr. Cook, to write to the Lords of the Privy Council, which he did, and an answer was returned in about eight or ten days, speaking from memory, to the effect that the matter should have the consideration of their lordships. Not having received any further communication from the Privy Council, and nothing baying been done by their lordships, on the follow to bile bLiztiug 'Luau touG t.c1.5 1, 2i Ca cholera were on the increase, and that every day's delay was attended with risk to so many lives. Upon that representation the committee, resolving to take the responsibility and expense of the work upon them selves, instructed the surgeon to make such arrange ments as he deemed necessary to carry out an effi cient inspection of the river. Those arrangements were accordingly made, and ever since the 11th of August the river from London-bridge to Wool wich and the Regent's and City Canals had been visited daily (Sundays excepted). Every vessel moored in those districts had been visited by the me dical officer daily. In all cases of diarrhoea medi cines were given and disinfectants were distributed, where required, on board the ships. The medicines and disinfectants were carried in the hospital boat and given by the medical officer himself. Nearly 10,000 vessels had been so visited, and in 1,100 cases medicines and disinfectants had been dispensed. To show the good effects Of that visitation and those precautions, between the 18th of July, when the first case of cholera was taken to the Belleisle cholera ship, and the 11th of August, when the visitation commenced, an interval of 24 days, 22 cases of cho lera were admitted from those districts of the river only which the hospital had taken under its supervi sion. Between the 11th of August and yesterday not more than eight or ten cases, speaking from memory, had been admitted from the same districts, and every case except two, which occurred on the first day of visitation, was sent in by the medical officer of each district in the early stage of the disease, the boats which conveyed them to the Belleisle being distin guished by a white flag and the letters S. H., denot ing Seamen's Hospital. For the purpose of visita tion they had mapped the river into four districts — the first being on the north side of the river from London-bridge to the Tunnel Pier, including the Regent's Canal ; the second being south of the river from London-bridge to Greenwich ; the third in cluded the City Canal on the north side, and from the Tunnel Pier to Greenwich on the north side of the river; and the fourth extended from Greenwich to Woolwich, including Bow Creek. Seventy-three cases of cholera had been received on board the Belleisle, and there had been 20 deaths. Mr. CooK, the secretary of the hospital, supple menting the above statement, said the annual in come of the institution was not equal to the expenditure, and that every year the authorities were obliged to intrench on the legacies left to the hospital to make up the deficiency. It had suffered a severe loss—viz., about £550 a-year from the abolition of the Merchant Sea men's society, and also a loss of £l,lOO a year, which it used to received from the Board of Trade. Its annual expenditure was about £B,OOO a year, and its receipts£6,ooo, of which about £3,000 a year was derived from legacies. Mr. Cook added, in re reply to Mr. Richard Hoare, that their total expenses for cholera purposes had been about £5OO, of which about £5O a week had been expended by the medical officer. They had received £llO from the public on the occasion, including £5O from the Trinity House. Sir MORDAUNTWELLS thought the work had been admirably done by the society, and he said he could not understand therrivy Council, who had promised to take the matter into consideration doing nothing afterwards. He asked the deputation how it was that in such a port as London the shipowners and masters did not support them so as to keep up an ample income. The committee were much surprised to learn that an hospital of such great importance did not receive the support it deserved. They should be glad, on public grounds, to know that it did. Mr. COOK replied the reason sailors assigned for not contributing was that hospital money was kept off their pay, and that th e y thought it, or part of it, went to support the Dreadnought. The money, however, went to Greenwich Hospital, and it was estimated that from the reign of William and Mary Greenwich Hospital had received £2,000,000 stor ing from the mercantile marine. Sir MORDAITNT WELLS, the chairman for the time, intimated to the deputation that the committee had unanimously voted them £250 ; adding that they were also;unanimously of opinion that the institu tion was deserving the most generous support from PRICE.... 4d. STAMPED sd. the public, and that the managing committee had discharged ,their duty in the emergency in au admirable manner and in a manner conducing to the interests of the metropolis, having regard to the danger during a visitation of cholera of the dis ease being still further propagated in this country through shipping or carried abroad in the same way. The committee, before separating, made a grant of £lOO to Miss Marsh's Convalescent home, and also one of £5O for convalescent purposes to the parish of West Ham. The committee then adjourned until Monday. With respect to the temporary cholera hospital recently established in Commercial -street, White chapel, it appears that during the last ',five days 38 patients have been admitted into this hospital. Of this number 28 were cases of severe Asiatic cholera, and ten cases of severe diarrhoea. There have been 13 deaths in the hospital during these five days. Of the 28 cholera cases admitted in the five days 16 have died. During Monday last there were six cases of cholera admitted, of these one died on the day of admission, three next day, and two on the third day. It will therefore be seen that the type of the disease is still very severe, in some respects equally so as during the height of the epidemic. It is the exception to have a case of cholera from the neighbourhood that suffered most during the epi demic. The caseshave come from Shoreditch, Spi tal and one from H ac k ney - w i ck. fields, Bethnal-green, l The following is the official return of deaths from cholera and diarrhoea registered on Thursday, 13th Sept..— Cholera. Diarrhcca.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. TlDlES.—Political revolutions, it hasbeen said, are mostly matters of finance, and the revolutions of Mexico are certainly no exception to the rule. Our first acquaintance with Mexico, unfortunately for us, was a financial one, and our latest account of Mexican politics is financial also. A new Conven tion between the Emperors Louis Napoleon and Maximilian has just been published, and its bearing is exclusively upon the financial relations between the two countries. What character Mexico sus tains iu these transactions we need hardly say. It has been consistently maintained for more than one generation, and the country possessed of the greatest natural riches in the world is probably the most deeply and irredeemably indebted. Of the actual finances of Mexico, which within the last few months have been so hopefully described in the French Cham bers, we can give, at any rate as regards one side of the sheet, a very concise exhibition. In the last year for which any public accounts are discoverable—that is to say, about a quarter of a century ago—Mexico was said to possess a revenue of some £3,500,000. That is all we can say about assets. The account of liabilities is considerably longer, and brought down to a much later date. Mexico owns, in the first place, to a bonded debt, representing the loan by which its political independence and sovereignty were origin ally established. This debt, including unfathom able arrears of interest, amounts now to a good £12,000,000. In the next place, every commercial country in the world has "claims" upon Mexico, some on one score and some on another, but which, including compensations due for what, even in for mal accounts, appear frankly described as " robbe ries," amount in the aggregate to about £9,000,000. Altogether, with the addition of certain other claims variously characterised, the public debt of Mexico at the time of the French conquest might be put at £23,000,000 sterling. After the conluest, at the ti I Wilt li2;uu,DoO, atili that loan, twelve months later, was followed by another ; so that the whole debt has perhaps been nearly doubled. Not much of the money, we fear, found its way into the hands of Maximilian, the percen tages retained in various shapes and for various purposes having been exceedingly large ; but, however that may be, it is understood that at present and for some time past the Imperial Government has been nearly destitute of re venue or resources. It is not worse off in this respect than any of the so-called " Governments" which preceded it ; but there is this difference, that whereas a President made no pretence of paying and never hesitated to plunder, Maximilian is bound by the common obligations of civilisaion and honesty. His straits, therefore, have been extreme, and the Convention of which we are now speaking, and which bears date the 30th of last July, will not assist him in his own difficulties, though it bears testi mony to his good intentions. It is simply an agree ment by which the Customs of the Empire at Vera Cruz and Tampico are, in so far as they are not en cumbered already, mortgaged to the French Govern ment to the extent of 50 per cent. of their value. As to the ports on the Pacific coast, the duties at those establishments are already pledged to the ex tent of 75 per cent. of their amount, and so the new mortgage only absorbs the 25 per cent. which re mains. Hopeless, however, as this statement may appear, there would be really nothing desperate about the case if the reorganisation of the country and the political stability of the Government could but be assured. Mexico, at the worst, owes perhaps ten years' income, and by that measure her debt is not so great a debt as our own. But the income of Mexico under a strong and successful Administra tion would be very largely in excess of its reputed revenue 25 years ago. There is, as we have said, no country in this world so stored with natural riches or so favourably situated for turning these treasures to account. The instincts of early settlers led them to this spot as the most promising in the whole continent, and the civilization to which they attained when the rest of America was a wilderness shows the ex cellence of the selection. So precious, in fact, and indispensable are the products of Mexican territory ' that even political anarchy could not drive trade away from the country. Many a reader has,' per haps, wondered why, when there was not only no encouragement to commerce, but no security even for property or life, foreign merchants should still settle in Mexico. The spirit of trade, how ever, and the chance of gain will carry men anywhere ; and nowhere in the world should there be a more valuable trade than in the territories of Maximilian. The chief supply of one of the precious metals comes from Mexico ; we might almost say in one sense the only supply, for the silver which does not come from Mexico represents no new product at all, but simply old coin thrown out of circulation. The mines, how ever, of Potosi and other districts are no longer worked to any sufficient purpose, while no enter prise is applied to the discovery of new deposits. uch If Mexico were but " prospected " with . as ld ni even pains as California, it would probably y richer returns. The descriptions given to the loan were Chambers on the proposal of the secco4_ rds the actual not in the least exaggerated as regards Mexico resources and capabilities of the Eln je French that was said of her ; might easily enough become all would have quickly , blished, the financial solvency in fact, had the political improverneut been but the n atural resort of followed. America immi grants, Maximilian actually offered land, the most attractive terri tories in neouragements of every kind to privileges, aul ro e m Europe or the States. There is settlers either from aAnmderMicaex.ico_ishas to spare for any number of immi grants, enougdh Mexico has about twenty times the grants, an I area o f .England, and about three times the popu lation of Middlesex. With all its na tur a l trea sures , it has at present no roads, banks, manufactures, or co mmercial establishments of any kind. Apply to such a country such energies as are applied to the development of new Territories in the American Union, and what would be the result? Unhappily, there has been no scope for the experiment. All these speculations must proceed on the assumption that Mexico proceeds on a new period of her his tory, and enjoys the blessings of security and order under an effective and responsible Government. Maximilian has been unable to establish such a Government. Juarez, the Chief, expelled from power by the French, refused, as might naturally have been anticipated, to acquiesce in the new settlement. He could never have been expected to do so, if a chance were left him of doing otherwise. Why should he lay down his arms, in stead of levying war, in brigand fashion, against the man in power? Why should be not fight against Maximilian, just as he would fight against Miramon or against anybody else, and just as Miramon or anybody else would fight against him? Fighting against somebody had been the order of the day - Mexico for many a long year, and it was but keep_ to up the custom of the land. Far be it from u p ; to assert that something like patriotism may not have been excited in Mexican breasts by foreign in vasion, or that Juarez may not on the present occa sion be sustained by a better spirit than that which animated Mexican factions against each other, Such may, perhaps, be the fact, but there is nothing known to make us credit it, nor anything visible on the surface of affairs beyond the ordinary course of Mexican contests. Maximilian, however, has not been strong enough to repress the brigandage by which he was opposed, while his responsibilities prevented him from resorting to the weapons of his adversaries. The result is the failure of his Go.. vernment to insure tranquillity, and the incapacity of the country to produce a revenue. Trade never deserts Mexico, and while trade goes on, something can always be g l eane d f rom Customs'duties, but Mexican finances can only improve with the politi cal regeneration of the State. ANGLO-A3IEP.ICAN TIMES. The President of the United States is not happy in his speeches. Calmness and dignity should be the inseparable attributes of a kingly position. Above all a great G overnor s h ould steer clear of party-spirit. He who aspires to a high command should first command himself. It is the fate of those whom destiny calls to rule in troublous times to be the victims of unscrupulous attack—to be de nounced by every engine which a factious opposi tion can devise, but the great ruler, trusting to the honesty of his motives, to the wisdom of his well matured measures, to time, and to the justice of history, should be above all such attacks. It is; painful to witness the Head of a nation traversing the country as au electioneering agent. Andrew Johnson is a great man in a great position, with pelt talent, determination, and patriotism. But he would be a greater man if he left to his sup-. porters the work he is now doing himself. lie should stand aloof, on the pinnacle of his power, while the factions rage beneath him, instead of hurling himself into the tumult.. Dirt thrown on a bronze figure is washed away by the first shower, and the statue stands in its noble proportions unin jured by the spiteful indignity. The case is very different with the man who descends into the fray. He emerges therefrom with battered hat, torn gar- _ ments, and ruffled person. He who was above that level has descended to the level of the common. herd, and he earns the satisfaction of blackening his opponent's eye by reaping himself indignities out of all proportion to those he inflicts. We freely grant the provocation given to the Presi- DENT. It is no small matter to have his private character calumniated, his measures misrepre sented, and his acts falsified. But it is the fate of all those who reach the highest peaks of this world's positions. We quote from memory from " Childe Harold"-- "He who to mountain tops cloth climb will find The highest peaks most wrapped in clouds and snow ; He who surpasses or subdues mankind Must look down on the hate of those below, Though high above, the sun of glory glow , And far beneath the earth and ocean spread, Round him aro icy rocks, and loudly blow Contending tempests on his naked head, And thus reward the toils that to those summits led." A President of the United States is not born and educated for the greatness of his position. He has been brought up in party strife, and must throw his energies as a partisan into the scale, or he cannot reach the pinnacle. But if on the one hand this tells against the calm dignity of the ruler, on the other hand, he must be one of Nature's noblemen ; for none, save those in whom Nature has centred the highest qualities, could hope to climb to such a summit. The fact of his success is the gua rantee of his superiority. With the innate feeling of the strength which has outstripped all competi tors in the race of ambition should come the calm superiority which such strength gives. A President of the United States is the elected of 30,000,000 of enlightened citizens. Not only can he look down on the nation from the height to which it has raised him, but he can look down on all other kings and rulers of the earth. If any ruler of this world is the anointed of God it is the President of the United States, for the voice of the people has called him. If the habits of his former career be too strong for him, and he gives way to the party spirit in which he has been educated, he derogates from the dignity to which he has been elected. No inducement should lead him into so fatal an error. Impromptu speeches from the balcony of an hotel cannot be made with out the utterance of objectionable matter, and where be feels strongly he should be the more guarded in giving vent to his opinions. It must not be forgotten that the President is fighting a higher power than himself, and probably backed by the greater mass of the people. Whether Cossyrpqß be person to denounce them should be the 'head of the Executive. We are all liable to error. A Sovereign may err in judgment as well as a Parliament, and with a free people the only solu tion where such a dead-lock occurs is in an appeal to them. But this appeal can be made with out the President descending from his high estate, and committing himself to opinions from which it may be hereafter impossible to recede. If he be wrong, and the general feeling of the nation decides that he is wrong, he ought to be unshackled to carry out the express wish of the nation. At the same time that we consider the course taken by Andrew Johnson to be undignified, we believe in the excellence of his motives, we be lieve in his ability and sterling patriotism, and we believe in the words in which he closes his late ad dress from Delmonico's—" that he would rather live in the affections and hearts of his countrymen than be endowed with any other gift that God can give on earth to man."
