Brays thus admitted are received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and taught till they are 11 years o , age. With the view t o secure the election of the most deserving cases, the Committe have from the first discouraged canvas sing, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers. The voting papers contain a description of each case, as care ful y investigated by the Committee, and with this informa tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as to those most eligible for free admission. This Home was opened in April, 1884. It was designed to take ti the little ones whose charact r and circumstances disqualify them for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender age precludes their admission to the Refuges. Such are those who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such are those who have been deserted by theirnatural protectors and left to beecome idle wanderers. Such are those whose parents may have at one time or other received parish relief, and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those whose parents are breakers of the law, or are in prison, and who train their children in the same path. Such are those whose evil associations have already had their painful effect, and must lead them to a life of crime and misery. There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of age to 10. There is room for nearly 10 , , and the Committee would joyfully see the Home filled at once ; they only wait for the necessary subscriptions. The Committee feel constrained to plead for those who cannot thus plead for themselves ; and, referring to the cir cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they ask—ls it right to make a widow and her family paupers for lite because one of them (the naughty boy of the tam ly) runs wild in the streets and is beyond her control ? Is it kind to tell her, because she has so large a family, that you will not h-lp her to put one of them into a Home, but that thee must ail go into "the house ?" Is it doing the best we can for the little destitute orphan to send him to the workhouse. Is it doing to others as we would they should do unto us that when these little ones have unnatural parents who turn them into the streets, or force them by ill-treatment to "run away," none of us shou'd be found to care for them, to speak a kindly word to them, to befriend them, to house and clothe thfm ? Shall we leave them still on the doorstep, passing by or. the other side, or else exclaiming "Am I my brother's keeper?" The necessity for an Institution for these little ones is evi dent from the police statisics, which show that in London alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 toys under 10 years of age, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom were convicted aid punished, while the bulk, 232 were dis charged by the magistrates with a rebuke, as being too young to punish. though not too young to learn th e beginnings of crime. On the other hand, there are numbers who, but for the timely help afforded by such an Institution, must otherwise become paupers, and losing all ideas of self-reli- ance and self-help. be permanent burdens to the State. The Home for Little Boys has, therefore, been established to rescue the little ones, to save them from the prison on the one hand, and the workhouse on tee other, and to endeavour to make them useful members of society. The daily routine of the Ins:lb:than presents all the fea tures of a home, a school, and a workshop. The little ones are cared for as children ; they have their regular meals, their suitable clothing, their hours of play and amusement, and their singing class. they are treated as scholars ; every morning is devoted to school work—reading, and writing, and ciphering, and Scriptural instruction, with occasional lessons in objects and other subjects. But they are also trained to work. As they must all, and that at a very early period in life, earn their living by the sweat of their brow, they are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after noons are occupied with various industrial occupations— making brown paper bags for bankers, and white i aper bags for tradesmen, and door mats and servants' kneelers for any who will buy them ; picking the coil for the mats, mending the c other, &c. Some assist the master in the garden, digging, planting, watering, weeding, and so forth. By degrees they are being made useful in the house, scrubbing and sweeping, while the elder ones clean all the boots, knives, &C. In this way it is sought to fit them for an active working life. . _ _ 2d. By payment of ss. a week, made quarterly in advance. All children must be under 10 years of age at the time of admission.

The exhibition is both a large and excellent one, and does very great honour to the ability, industry, and inventive and productive skill of the working classes connected with the district em braced by the Operations of the committee. It had been intended (as all the world knows) by Lord Pal- I merston to open it ; but his lordship's indisposition prevented his doing so, and Mr. Gladstoneand Lord Stanley, who were invited at a late hour to accept the vacant honour, being both pre-engaged, the dis tinction was proffered to and accepted by the chief magistrate of Bristol (Mr. Naish). Prior to the ceremony there was a procession of the different trades and benefit societies, which, at the Council-house, was joined by the Mayor in state, the High Sheriff (Mr. Mills), and other dignitaries. At the drill-hall the cortege was further extended by the addition of the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, the Very Rev. the Dean of Bristol, the Rev. Canon Turner, the Mayor of Bath, various clergymen, &c. As soon as the procession entered the building the bands of the volunteer rifles conjoined struck up the National Anthem and then a march. The Old Hundredth Psalm having been sung by a choir engaged for the occasion, the mayor, at the request of Mr. J. M. Dempster, in the name of the citizens of Bristol, declared the exhibition to be open. The Right Rev. the Bishop of GLOUCESTER and BRISTOL then offered up an appropriate prayer, after which the choir sang with fine effect Handers Hallelujah Chorus from the " Messiah." The Right Rev. the BISHOP then addressed the assemblage, alluding in terms of great regret to the absence of the noble Premier. Their disappoint ment was great, but they would have the satisfac tion, on the other hand, of feeling that they had not added to the large amount of toil which that dis tinguished statesman was compelled to undergo in the public service. The rev. prelate enlarged on the instructive character of exhibitions of that class, and said he could say from his heart that he believed them capable of producing important moral and even religious benefits. The Hon. F. Berkeley, the Very Rev. the Dean, the High Sheriff, and some of the working men, spoke ; and the proceedings closed by singing the National Anthem. The city was profusely decorated with flags, all the shops and places of business were closed, and there was bell-ringing, cannon-firing, a gala, and other tokens of rejoicing. The articles which are exhibited have been divided by the committee into six classes, viz. :--I. Artistic productions. 11. Models and designs. 111. Use ful and ornamental. IV. Miscellaneous. V. Fe male productions. VI. Musical instruments. In Class I. there are 178 exhibitors ; in 11., 205 ; in 133 ; in IV., 75 ; in V., 97 ; and in VI., only B—making a total of 696. This, of course, does not represent anything like the number of articles exhibited—many exhibitors showing eight or ten different things. Bristol and its neighbour hood contribute 570, by far the greatest number; Bath comes next with 41 ; Gloucester and Glouces tershire are represented by t 23 ; Swindon by 13 ; Weston-super-Mare, 11 ; Cardiff and Newport, 6 each ; Plymouth sends 4, Bodmin 3, Birmingham, Yeovil, Merthyr, Bridgewater, Clevedon, and Swan sea 2 each ; and Chippenham, Minehead, Exeter, Yatton, and Falmouth, 1 each. There are one or two rather peculiar features in connection with some of the articles and the persons exhibiting them. For instance, a linen-draper shows a set of skulls and crossbones cut in ivory, a police-constable specimens of fancy wool work, a quarryman an oil painting, another police-constable specimens of moths and butterflies collected during leisure hours, a ship wright several samples of ornamental needlework, a blindmaker some cases of animals arranged in imi tation of a hunt, a hairdresser ten or a dozen pic tures, the work of spare time, a tutor's first attempts at illuminating manuscripts, an ironmonger's assis tant's oil paintings done after business hours, a lettercarrier some sketches "by a postman in his leisure hours ; they are few and far-between—self- taught ;" a clerk, vases of wax fruit and flowers ; a tailor, some exquisitely arranged collections of but terflies and other insects ; a compositor, a piece of ornamental penmanship ; a bootcloser, a book of poems written by himself ; and a candlemaker, an optical illusion by which a person may apparently look through a brick. Amongst the work of the ladies we find a dressed doll, a quilted skirt, a lady's night dress, a bed quilt containing over 12,000 pieces ; a gentleman's summer vest ; baby's' robe ; a model shirt made by a woman 73 years of age ; and a design for a " universal novel candle stick." Perhaps the first thing almost that will strike the visitor is the vast number of models of vessels exhibited. This may be easily accounted for. Bristol being a seaport, the love of and taste for nautical matters is engendered in her inhabitants. Queer trades try their hands at ship-modelling. For instance, a lithographic printer, a paperhanger, a planer, a brushmaker, a, dental surgeon, a shoemaker, a police-constable (formerly a labourer), a publican, and a dozen others equally incongruous. We shall not profess to at tempt anything like a detailed account of the articles exhibited until they are in proper order. For the present it may suffice to announce the curiosities of the exhibition. There is a working model of a steam engine that stands comfortably upon a silver three penny-piece. A vast number of model engines are shown, hnd most of them were in full operation. Natural history is represented by a large number of cases of stuffed birds and animals, collections of butterflies, and eggs, and other interesting articles. One ingenious collector has arranged his insects in the form of a crown, and the result is one of the most beautiful things in the exhibition. Art has sent carvings, drawings, paintings, and plans in numerable. One gentleman sends an " artificial leg, with an improvement in the construction of the ankle joint." The State swords and city plate have been sent by the corporation. There are the pearl sword, the sword of justice, the State sword, and (dreadful weapon !) the sword of death. The silver salver stolen during the riots in 1 83 1 , by a man gla named Ives, and by him cut into 167 pieces, will b e no less interesting. The ewer, the grace cup, th e flagons, and the maces come next. Then there is the silver Monteith or punch bowl, presented by the So ciety of Merchant Venturers to Captain Pitts, 1628, for bravely defending his ship against a Spanish rover, and afterwards purchased by the corporation of his descendants. The two silver trumpets blown by the city heralds at assize time, silver candlesticks, snuf fers, and stand, silver salver, silver tankard, silver chandelier, and other things that are silver bring the list to an end. The students of the Fine Arts Academy send a large number of specimens showing the nature of the various stages of instruction. A vase of skeleton leaves will attract a large amount of ad miration, as much from the skill with which they are preserved as from the taste with which they are arranged. A carpenter has sent a copy of Wilkie's " Blind Man's Buff," inlaid with upwards of 4,000 pieces of wood, made during the space of 51 years. Some chaste designs in human hair show to what perfection the artist in that branch can carry his skill. The Coalbrookdale Company have kindly lent a variety of ornamental castings.

The buyers for all markets have given out orders freely, and the advance has been freely paid. For home trade yarns we have a strong market, with a considerable advance in prices upon last Tuesday's rates. A good business has been done. In cloths prices have been steadily advancing since last Tuesday, though they have hardly kept pace with the advance of cotton in the Liverpool market. An almost daily advance has been obtained, how ever, and the demand has been pretty general. Manufacturers have been pretty well engaged for all kinds of goods, and are not willing to take orders except at a decided improvement on the rates of last Tuesday, and even then only at a long date for de livery. We have to notice an improvement for shirtings since our last . , report. There has been some demand for China for the better makes of shirtings, and the manufacture of such fabrics hav ing been of late very generally discontinued are very scarce, especially the better sorts, so that prices are higher. Altogether, a fair business has been done to-day, though the transactions have fallen below what might have been expected but for the difficulty of obtaining goods within any moderate term of delivery. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. re port : " The large business in Liverpool and extensive engage ments of manufacturers have caused a steady advance here during the week. To-day we have had a general demand, and a good business has been done at advanced quota tions." LEEDS, 19th.—The woollen cloth markets to-day have been moderately well attended. Prices of all seasonable goods were firm, and a fair business was done. A good bulk of meltons and tweeds continue to change hands, but the continuance of summer weather checks the sales of the heavier kinds of fabrics. The clothiers and manufacturers generally keep well employed. Wools are quite as high as last week. Norrnmium, 19th.—There was a fair attendance on 'Change to-day, and the demand for lace yarns was more active, spinners asking an advance of ld. to 2d. per lb. For hosiery yarns prices advanced is. per bundle of 101 b. Silks quite as dear. Brown nets were in rather better request, and prices for mosquitoes were a shade higher. ROCHDALE, 18th.—To-day's flannel market has been rather quiet, there being a moderate attend ance, who purchased most freely of fancy goods. Indeed, the continuance of warm weather has been prejudicial to the heavy goods trade, but manufac turers of heavy as well as light goods are well em ployed, and stocks are not heavy. There is no change in the Yorkshire goods trade, which remains rather dull, ith prices nominally unchanged. The wool market is also quiet, but prices are very firm, and the same may be said as to those of flannels. FORBIDDING THE BANNS.—This somewhat un usual proceeding took place in Sidmouth Church on Sun day morning last. A fisherman named George Cordoy made known his intention in the parish church, in accord ance with the usual custom, of being united in marriage to the lady of his choice. But not as usual did the announce ment pass unchallenged, for at the conclusion a young lady stood up, pronouncing the ominous but seldom spoken words, " I forbid the banns !" This courageous member of the fair sex, whose name we believe is Carnall, appears to consider that she has a prior claim to the faithless swain, and therefore took this opportunity of endeavouring to en force her rights. The event caused considerable astonish ment amongst the congregation.—Tiverton Gazette. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. --41.- NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING.

Upon passing the stand Suspicion lay in front, closely attended by Dr. Syntax, Lucky Star, and Surney, the other three lying well up. Thus they proceeded up the hill with little change, except that Suspicion increased his lead, but upon reaching the top turn Surney ran up to him and took the command, Mr. Bevill's horse going on second, Dr. Syntax third, and Olivia fourth. Descending the hill, Olivia headed Suspicion, and at the half mile post took a trifling lead of Burney, which she held for the next quarter of a mile, when the latter again shot to the front, and though Olivia challenged resolutely at the distance, she could never reach Surney, who won cleverly by a neck ; three lengths separated the second and third.

HEALTH OF LONDON. --- (From the Registrar-General's Weekly Report.) In the week that ended on Saturday, Sept. 16, the births registered in London and ten other large towns of the United Kingdom were 4,007 ; the deaths registered, 2,526. The annual rate of mor tality was 23 per 1,000 persons living. In London the births of 1,054 boys and 1,035 girls, in all 2,089 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding week of ten years, 1855-64, the average number, corrected for in crease of population, was 1,888. • The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,204. It was the thirty-seventh week of the year, and the average number for that week was, with a correction for increase of population, 1,200. The actual result agrees almost exactly with the computed amount. Diarrhoea began to decline towards the end of July, and decreased remarkably at the end of August ; and since that time, notwithstanding the extraordinary heat of the weather, it has happily not shown a disposition to increase. In the last three weeks the mortality from diarrhoea, has been singularly free from fluctuation, the deaths having been in those periods 89, 89, and 85. In the 37th week of 1861, with a mean temperament of the air that did not exceed the .average, the deaths were 137 ; and the average for that week in 10 years with a correction for increase of population is 97. The mortality from zymotic diseases in the aggre gate was last week 307 deaths ; and the corrected average for the same period is 374. The compari son as regards this class of diseases speaks not un favourable for the present time. Besides the 85 deaths from diarrhoea 4 were re ferred to cholera in the week, of which the three fol lowing happened to adults :—ln Southwark, at 21, Bennett-street, on the 14th instant, a journeyman plasterer, aged 66 years, died of cholera (3 days) fever. 'At 3, Park-place, Clapham-road, on the 9th inst., the daughter of a coachman, 19 years, of cholera. At 3, Ann-street, Bromley, on the 11th inst., a groom, 63 years, English cholera (5 days). A woman, aged 42 years, died on the 24th ult. of exposure and destitution. She had been taken be fore death to the Shoreditch workhouse. A journey man painter died on the 10th inst. of coup-de-soliel. The following nine cases are recorded in which accidents in the streets by horses and conveyances were attended by fatal consequences :—On Sept. 7 an omnibus driver, aged 40 years, fell from an om nibus ; died in St. Mary's Hospital. On Sept. 11 the son of a policeman, aged one year, run over by a- dray; died at 4, Radnor-street, City-road. On Aug. 12 the son of a brickmaker, aged 3 months, run over ; died in Silver-street, Lewisham. On Sept. 6 a carman, aged 40 years, fell from a van ; died in the German Hospital. On Sept. 7 the son of a shipwright, aged 7 years, run over ; died in Poplar Hospital. On Sept. 7 a labourer, aged 20 years, fell from a cart ; died in London Hospital. On Sept. 10 the son of a goldbeater, aged 5 years, fell from a van ; died in London Hospital. On Sept. 10 a tailor, aged 65 years, run over by a van; died in London Hospital. On Sept. 14 a carman, aged 40 years, run over ; died in London Hospital. The rate of mortality last week was 21 per 1,000 in London, 25 in Edinburgh, and 23 in Dublin ; 32 in Liverpool, 27 in Manchester, 22 in Salford, 20 in Birmingham, 32 in Leeds, 19 in Bristol, 30 in Hull, and 24 in Glasgow. The rate in Vienna was 25 per 1,000 during the week ending the 26th ult., when the temperature was 3.6 degs. Fahren heit higher than in the same week in London, where the rate was 20 per 1,000. In Liverpool the births were 330, the deaths 295 ; in Manchester the births 249, the deaths 182 ; in Salford the births 76, the deaths 46 ; in Birming ham the births 241, the deaths 121 ; in Leeds the births 180, the deaths 137 ; in Bristol the births 115, the deaths 60 ; in hull the births 91, the deaths 60 ; in Edinburgh the births 134, the deaths 83 ; in Glasgow the births 313, the deaths 194 ; and in Dublin the births 189, the deaths 137. There were 264 deaths in Vienna during the week ending the 26th ult. At the Royal Observatory, GreenWich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 30.106 in. The mean reading was above 30 in. on every day after Sunday. The reading rose from 29.96 in. on Sunday, •to 30.29 in. on Tuesday. The mean tem perature of the air in the week was as high as 67.8 deg., which is 10.5 deg. above the average of the same week in 50 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean temperature greatly exceeded the average on every day ; and on Saturday the ex cess was even 14.8 deg, The highest day reading was 85.3 deg., and was obtained on Saturday ; and the lowest at night was 52.3 deg. on Thursday. The difference between the mean dew-point tem perature and air temperature was 9 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 73, complete satu ration being represented by 100. On Friday the humidity was as low as 60. There was no rain in the week. Saturday was a very remarkable day, its mean temperature being only 0.4 deg. below that of Sept. 8, which has been already stated to have been higher than that of any day since 12th Aug., 1861. BARNSTAPLE STOCK FAlR.—This old-established and important cattle, sheep, and horse fair commenced on Wednesday and closed on Saturday last. Buyers attended in large numbers from the north and south of Devon, as well as from Cornwall, Bristol, and Somerset. Much busi ness was transacted. Bullocks, in good condition, were in fair supply, and eagerly bought up at from 12s. to 14s. per score ; lean sorts were by no means difficult to dispose of at from 7s. to Bs. ; steers from £l2 to £2O ; cows and calves from £l9 to £2l. The supply of sheep was very large, but not out of proportion to the demand—sheep ready for the butcher fetched from Bd. to 9d. per lb. ; ewes, 30s. to 425. each. The horse fair was well stocked, especially with animals for agricultural purposes, in which there was capi tal choice ; the bulk of those exhibited changed owners at good prices. A few first-rate hunters were disposed of. PALMERSTON CHECKMATES THE CZAR NICHOLAS —When the Whigs came into power in 1830, Lord Heytesbury was our ambassador at St. Petersburg. Lord Grey requested him to remain as our representative, though his polities were by no means coincident with those of the cabinet. 111-health, however, compelled him to retire two years later, when Sir Stratford Canning, a cousin of the great statesman, was appointed in his stead. That great public servant of England, who for so many years after wards proved himself so fit a coadjutor of Palmerston in their joint purpose of restraining the pretensions and resisting the encroachments of Russia was known to be a firm Liberal and unusually well acquainted with the secrets of Russian intrigue. Nicholas insolently re fused to receive him, and with proper defiant feeling the Whigs refused to appoint anybody else, holding that it was no right of any foreign potentate to dictate to the Crown of England who should or who should not re present it at a foreign court. The short-enduring Govern ment of Peel took a less high and dignified view ; they filled up the post, appointing the M arqu i s of Londonderry, the brother of Lord Ca s tl ereag h , a notorious detester of everything savouring of liberty, and the professed inheri tor of the worst of his brother principles. Of course no appointment more pleasing to the Czar could have been made, and ho graciously indicated his satisfaction. But the Commons of England revolted against this humiliation. Sheil brought forward the subject in the House of Com mons, receiving for his strictures an amount of general support which showed how deeply the national heart was stirred. The Marquis relieved the Government from their difficult position by voluntarily throwing up his nomination. It devolved again upon Lord Palmerston, upon his return to the Foreign-office to fill up the vacancy; and he boldly selected Lord Durham, the most thoroughly popular of the Reform Bill heroes, and indeed the most Radical nobleman in England. This time Nicholas did not deem it prudent to make any objection, and his accept ance of the appointment may be considered the first encou raging success gained by Lord Palmerston in that long contest of his with Nicholas, which only ended with the death of the Czar, baffled and humbled by the successes of the allies in the Crimea.--JPGilchrist's Life of L or d Rd_ merstan.
