Smith, Payne, and Smiths, 1, Lombard- street, Thts Home was opened in April, 1864. It was designed to take in the little ones whose charact r and circumstances disqualify the for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender Pe 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 their natural 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 Inuit lead them to a life of crime and misery. There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of age to 10. Thera 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 p'ead for those who csnnot thus plead for themselves ; and, referring to the cir cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they ask—is 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 1p her to put one of them into a Home. but that they must all 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 "inn 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 th-m ? Shall we leave them still on the doorstep, Passing by on 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 statisrics, which show that in London alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 boys under 10 years of age, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom Were convicted and 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 thebeginnings 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 selt-help, be permanent burdens to the State. The daily routine of the Ins' itution presents all the fea tures of a home, a school, and a workshop. The little ones ,a,re cared for as children ; they have their r e gul ar m e als, Lo it 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, 1 4 ad cipherin e and Scriptural instruction. with occasional "asons in ol jects and other subjects. But they are also trained to work. As they must all, an ! that at a very early Period in life, earn their living by the sweat of their brow, t hey are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after noons,_ are occupied with various .indust r i al occupations— rakin,,e• brown paper bags for bankers, and white gaper b a g s for tradesmen, and door mats and servants' kneelers for any Zell° will buy them ; picking the coil for the mats, mending ,!!'e c othes, &c. Some a.sist the master in the garden, planting, watering, weeding, and so forth. By ogrees they are being made useful in the house, scrubbing k nives, iexeeping, while the elder ones clean all the boots, ac. Id this way it is sought to fit them for an active working Ilfe. The mode of admission to the House is twofold, lat. By election of the subscribers. roys thus admitted ge received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and tiu,ght till "7s: are 11 years o' age. ith the view 10 s• cure the election of the most deserving t Z,to, the Commitie have from the first discouraged canvas ,ips, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers. e voting papers contain a description of each case, as care tili4iy investigated by the Committee, and with this inf orma lb_ the subscribers are able to judge fur themselves as to ",;le most eligible for free admission. `,o; By payment of sa. a week, made quarterly in advance. ~,4 11 1 children must be under 10 years of age at the time of t-ru!ssion.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT ROUSE OF LORDS—LAST EVENING. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. ROYAL COMMISSION. The royal Consent was given, by commission, to the Consolidated Fund (X 175,650), the Game Licences, the Industrial Exhibition, the International Exhibition (Dub lin, 1865), and the British Kaffraria, Bill. THE GRIEVANCES OF THE INDIAN ARMY. Lord DONOUGHMORE presen.ted_petitions from seve ral officers in the Indian army, praying for a redress of the grievances of which they complained. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Westminster Improvement Bill, the Waterford and Passage Railway, and the Wexford Harbour Improvement Bills were read a third time and passed. CRIMINAL CONVICTION AT SLIGO. The Marquis of WESTMEATH moved for copies of the papers relating to the conviction of a young girl recently tried by the magistrates of Colooney, in Sligo, named Catherine Gaughan, on the 25th of February last A complaint had been made by the young female against Michael Hart, Hineford Hart, and others, on the charge of assaulting and ill-treating her in divers ways, and putting her; into duress and de taining her in confinement for some days, until she was released by a magistrate's order ; and also of the con viction of Sub-Inspector Broke, and others of the police, from having been present at that outrage in open day and declining to interfere and rescue Catherine Gaughan from the brutal treatment to which she had been subjected ; and for a copy of the decision of the inspector-general of the constabulary upon the conduct of the individuals of ,the force incul pated on that occasion. The noble lord entered into a detail of the facts connected with this case, from which it appeared that the female in question, who had attained the years of discretion, went to Scotland, and there seceded from the Roman Catholic Church. On her return to Ireland, this act led to the com mission of the offence which he had brought under the notice of the house, in consequence of the failure of her friends and the Roman Catholic clergymen to coerce her to return to the creed from which she conscientiously departed. He was not one of those who had any bigoted feelings to wards members of the Roman Catholic persuasion, among whom he had many friends. He had used his influence towards the passing of the Catholic Emancipation Act. He understood that when that act was passed it was with the distinct understanding that no attempt would be made to undermine the Established Church, but that im plied promise had been broken, of which fact this present case was an excellent illustration. He con tended that in regard to this young female the police had acted under the direction of a Roman Catholic clergyman in 'violation of justice and law, and that such a state of things was a disgrace to the present day. He re gretted to say that this was not an isolated case, show ing the practice that prevailed in. Ireland, because from facts which had come to his knowledge he would bo in a position to lay before their lordships another case, which would prove that the Irish constabulary were merely a machine in the hands of the Roman Catholic clergy. (A laugh.) He could asssure their lordships that he was quite satisfied as to the accuracy of his statement, and he felt bound as a firm membbr of the Esta blished Church to warn theirlordships against the attempts that were made in Ireland to subvert this Church by acts similar to those he had brought under the notice of their lordships, and which he feared were of too frequent occurrence. Earl GRANVILLE said that the Government had no objection whatever to produce the papers referred to. The Colonial Naval Defence Bill was, on the motion of the Duke of SOMERSET, read a second time. The Private Bill Costs Bill was passed through com- • mittee. The Affirmation (Scotland) Bill and the Perth Provi sional Order Confirmation Bill were read a third time and passed. On the report of amendments to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency (Ireland) Act Amendment Bill, The Earl of LONGFORD moved the re-insertion of a clause which had been Struck out by the select committee to whom the bill had been referred, on the ground that the On the return of the SPEAKER, Mr. WATKINS presented petitions in favour of the Che mists and Druggists Bill. Sir F. KELLY presented a number of petitions in favour of the repeal of the malt tax. Mr. LOCKE presented a petition against the Justices of the Peace Procedure Bill. CATHOLIC STUDENTS. Mr. SCULLY moved for an address for copies of all correspondence from the Ist day of January, 1864, up to the making of the return, between the Foreign-office in London and her Majesty's representative at Brussels, or between such representative and the Belgian Government, or between the Foreign-office and the Belgian Minister in London, or between the Foreign-office and the Home office, with reference to the bourses or endowments hereto fore provided for the education of Irish Catholic students in the University of Louvain ; and of any memorial or correspondence to or with the Foreign -office and the Home office respectively on behalf of Irish Catholics with refer ence to those bourses or endowments.—Agreed to. BISHOP COLENSO. Mr. DUNLOP asked the Secretary• of State for the Colonies whether, looking to the recent decision of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the case of Bishop Colenso, by which, with reference to colonies with representative Legislature, or in which the Church of England had not been established by law, patents for the erection of episcopal sees therein, purposing to confer ecclesiastical jurisdiction, were pronounced to be contrary to law, it was the intention of the Government to advise her Majesty to abstain henceforth from issuing any more such patents for colonies so situate, and also from nominating successors under the existing illegal patents to bishops who may die or resign, leaving the voluntary associations of which such bishops were the chief ministers to provide successors according to the rules and canons they have adopted or may adopt for the government of their own non-established communions ; and particularly whether this course would be recommended in reference to Canada, where by an act of the Canadian Legislature to which the Royal Assent was duly given, all connection between Church and State has been expressly abolished. Mr. CARDWELL said with respect to Canada the prac tice of issuing patents has been discontinued. The bishops there are selected by the Church in the colonies, and derive their civil rights from the colonies. With reference to the other matter referred to, the recent decision had led to the necessity of giving that matter the most serious considera tion. No letters patent, however, would be issued until that consideration has been brought to a close. EPISCOPAL SEES IN THE COLONIES. Mr. DUNLOP asked the Attorney-General to what extent and effect, if any, patents erecting episcopal sees in colonies having representative legislatures, or in which the Church of England had not been previously by law established, and purporting to confer ecclesiastical juris ilirtinn tuts vzueourtar Sovereign of the United Kingdom, issued patents for the erection of episcopal sees, in accordance with the religious system established by law in only ono part of the United Kingdom, England, in colonies which never were, at any time, colonies of England, but have been, from their origin, British colonies. The AT T ORNEY-GENERAL g am :a mere a=m cult to say what these letters patent provided than what they did not. It had been determined by the Judicial Com mittee that there were no legal dioceses in the colonies to which the late inquiry related, and that the letter patent constituted no legal connection between the Church in these colonies and the united Church of England and Ireland. It was further determined that the letters patent granted to the bishop did not introduce into these colonies any part of the ecclesiastical polity of Eng land, and that they gave no legal power to the bishops which they might not have under the voluntary system. He found also in the judgment that letters patent were not valid to create ecclesiastical corporations which the colonies were bound to recognise. UNION CHARGEABILITY BILL. Mr. VILLIERS, in moving the second reading of this bill, said the union principle having been adopted for the purpose of administration instead of the parochial system, it was desirable that the same principle should be adopted with regard to settlement and rating instead of retaining these latter within the aret, of the parochial system. This was the principle -which the bill sought to bring into operation, and it was founded on the results of seversl inquiries by committees of the House of Commons and Royal Commissioners. It had been contended, in sotto quarters, that the bill was in troduced to benefit the town population at the expense of the rural districts, but this was altogether a mistake, as such certainly was not the intention of the measure. The late member for North Defon, he believed, was in favour of the bill. Sir R. KNIGHTLEY trusted that the question would not be viewed in a party spirit. He objected to the bill because it affected the vat° of every acre of land in the country, and was of far too important a description to be discussed by a moribund Parliament. He was therefore in favour of postponing legislation, in order that the question might be submitted to their constituents at the next gene ral election. He also objected to the bill, not only because it would interfere with property, but likewise because it would injure the interests of the labouring classes, who, in the dull seasons, would be driven to the union workhouse instead of being assisted, as they now were,' in their own cottages. The President of the Poor-law Board was not, in his opinion, competent to legislate on a question of this nature, as he never saw a green field except from the win dow of a railway carriage, and knew no more about the rural districts of England than of the interior of Africa. In conclusion, the hon. baronet, moved as an amendment, " That, considering the little knowledge this house pos sesses as to the practical working of the Irremovable Poor Act of 1861, it is inexpedient, without further information, to legislate on the subject of union rating during the pre sent session." The amendment was seconded by Mr. BANKS-STANHOPE, who contended that the bill would be an unjustifiable inter ference with property, and inflict irreparable injury upon the poor of the rural districts. Sir E. DERING also opposed the bill, on the ground that it would relieve the ratepayers of the towns at the expense of those in the country parishes. He suggested, as a compromise, that the second reading should be postponed until after the Easter recess, so that in the interim hon. members might consult their constituents. Mr. G. P. BENTINCK thought the house was not yet in possession of sufficient information to legislate upon the subject, and would consequently give his vote in favour of the amendment. Mr. HODGKINSON, in answering the arguments of hon. gentlemen opposite, denied that the present bill was a step in the direction of national rating. It was, he said, nothing more nor less than an act of justice, and was intended to adjust a burden which, in the lapse of time, had become disarranged. Sir W. JOLLIFFE gave a warm support to the bill, be cause he was persuaded that it would prove a useful and beneficial measure. The parochial system offered, he thought, a premium to the bad and dissolute labourer, while it - discouraged the good. Lord HENLEY pointed out several instances of gross injustice in his own union, and stated that, under the pre sent system, two close parishes paid a poor rate of 6d. in the pound, while others paid as much as 6s. Mr. SCOURFIELD advocated delay, and Mr. J. TOLLE MACKE was of opinion that the bill would relieve heavily burdened townships at the expense of others. Mr. SCULLY and Mr. PUGH spoke in favour of the measure, the late hon. gentleman expressing his willing ( noss to sanction a much larger area of chargeability than I that contemplated by the bill. _ _ _ Mr. FLOYER took an opposite view to that of the pre ceding speakers, arguing that union rating would lead to a careless expenditure of the rate; as there would be no longer that careful personal supervision on the part of local guardians, without which the poor law could not be worked effectively or charitably. Mr. THOMPSON was quite prepared to vote in favour of union rating, but, inasmuch as the bill would cause a The amendment was then put, and on a division the numbers were— . For Against ,.. 203 Majority -72 The original motion was then put and agreed to, and the bill was read a second time. The report on supply was then brought up. The orders of the day and the other business on the paper having been disposed of, the house then adjourned. PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION. HOUSE OF COMMONS-MARCH 27. UNION CHARGEABILITY BILL. Order for second reading read. Motion made and ques tion proposed, " That the bill be now read a second time."

Maurice Cristo], "On the dispersion of skilled labourin the rural districts of France,"from which we glean the following interesting particulars :—ln lace making, the women who live in towns aro far inferior to those who live in the country ; they are not so well paid, because though the price is the same, living in a town is much dearer, and their health soon declines. Hence this sort of work has emigrated to the country ; and, not to men tion Belgium, where lace is a staple, and the females employed in making it amount to about 130,000, there aro in the neighbourhood of Arras alone 6,000 lace-makers who earn about a franc a-day, without neglecting their household duties. Glove-making also is gradually leaving the towns to settle definitively in the country. Thus, in the Haute-Marne, a single firm gives em ployment to upwards of 2,000 hands ; in the Isere there are 15,000 needlewomen engaged in the trade, and around Grenoble there are about 1,200 cutters who turn out 600,000 pair of gloves a year, which, at the rate of 30fr. a dozen, represent a sum of from 1,600,000 to 1,700,000 fr. The Grenoble manufactory employs about 600 women in putting the glove on the pattern, then under the cutting press, and preparing it otherwise for the needle. Such women, when clever, earn from 70f. to 80f. a month. The remuneration for sewing gloves is at the rate of about 4fr. 50c. a dozen with one button, and 4fr. 75c. with two, but the sewer must find her own thread. The cutting of precious stones, whether genuine or imitation, is a trade that has taken up its abode on the heights of the Jura, at Septmencel (except the diamond, which is cut by ma chinery at Amsterdam). At the place we have mentioned the women are constantly employed in making imitation jewels, in drilling holes into rubies for watchmakers, &c., and they earn thereby about 75 cent. per day ; the earnings of the men in the same sort of work being lfr. 60c. At the Liverpool county court, yesterday, Mr. Sergeant Wheeler, the judge, was occupied in try ing an action brought by Mr. 11. B. Cummins, the hero of the now famous " tom-fool knot," against Mr. Hime, who acted as the local agent for the Brothers Davenport. Mr. Cummins claimed ss. from Mr. Hime for money paid to witness a seance announced by the Davenports, but which séance did not take place. Mr. Bards well, solicitor for the plaintiff, delivered a long address, and read de scriptions of the several performances given in Liver pool, including that at which the cabinet was smashed, and when the Davenports refused to go on with their performances. The point on which he relied was that the Davonports had published ad vertisements promising that every person who paid for a ticket and attended would witness a seance. Mr. Pope, barrister, for the defence, contended that there was no statement in the advertisements as to what in particular would be done by the Daven ports ; that on the morning previous to the evening in question, in consequence of the interruption which had taken place on a former evening, they advertised that they should reserve the right to reject any committee which might be appointed to tie them ; that when Messrs. Hulley and Cummins were appointed they did object; that afterwards they yielded, and agreed to be tied by them ; and that in consequence of what then took place they were unable to proceed as they had intended. Mr.- Cummins, who was severely cross-examined, stated that he took no part in the row, and used every exertion to prevent vio lence. His Honour held that, though nothing defi nite was stated in the advertisements, it was under stood that seance was to include the usual " mani festations ;" that when the Davenports had agreed to be tied by Messrs. Hulley and Cummins, although they had a perfect right to reject any committee that might be appointed, they pledged themselves to fulfil their contract, and that, as they did not go on, the contract was broken. He gave his decision for the plaintiff for the amount claimed. It is under stood that, by friendly agreement between the par ties, this decision is to guide Mr..Hime in reference to all the claims made by other persons seeking a return of their money, amounting, we believe, to upwards of 100. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALLS-MONDAY. To-day there was another repetition of those " sensa tion" movements in connection with Breadalbane for the Two Thousand Guineas. At the Victoria Club, in the morning, there was a marked disposition to lay against him at the commencement of business, when 2,200 to 110 was booked ; the next blow struck, however, was less deadly, 1,000 to 60 being laid twice. At Hyde-park-corner the same mystery prevailed, but despite the uncertainty as to the in tentions of his owner, he was again supported freely at prices varying from 12 to 8 to 1, taken to about £1,500. All sorts of rumours were afloat as to the final policy of Mr. Chaplin with regard to his horse, but whoever he or they were that "knew anything," they kept their counsel well while the industrious ones caaried on their operations. Previous, as well as intending backers were in a dilemma, but seeing so many " good " men supporting the horse for money, they considered that they could not be far wrong in following suit, and thus they " plunged " on him a second time, 8 to 1 and 7 to 1 having been taken kindly. The finish, however, was a staggerer. A member who, in his speculative transactions, is distinguished by his cool disregard for the strict rules of betting, offered to take 100 to 15 about the Malton horse, odds with which he was ac commodated three times. Later on seven " fifties " were laid on the quiet, but we may safely say that that price to menAv would hsa va_heuay, _IAA) 0,12 "way.. Chattanooga was somewhat unsteady, after nine " fifties " were laid, 10 to 1 was his current price, taken to about £5O. :For the Derby Breadalbane still holds his position undisputed. 550 to 100 was taken in one bet, and until the close of the room sto 1 was the highest offer on the field, while 7 to 1 went begging about Liddington, but not until he had been backed to about £lOO at that price. It must not be generally in the secrets of the Russley stale lam eigm, " ponies " twice, just immediately after the horse had been supported at a point loss. The Duke was in great demand at 8 and 9 to 1, at which prices he was entrusted with very good money; but he failed to sustain his reputation, as nothing short of 10 to 1 would satisfy the adherents of the Marquis of Hastings' colours. The only other feature of the Derby betting was the hostility against Chattanooga, who, after 25 to 1 had been accepted about him to £3OO, de clined to 30 to 1 (taken to £100) offered until the room was cleared. . _ NORTHAMPTONSHIRE STASES. 7to 1 agst Mr. H.

Certain representatives of our two great Universities make their appearance in a locality not a hundred miles from the metropolis during the present week. They are not members of parliament, neither are they heads of houses, therefore we may treat them pleasantly rather than gravely, and dismiss from our minds the solemnities of cap and gown, and the boredom of blue books, and " I hold in my hand a paper, sir." The gentlemen, we expect, are young —indeed, in the first blush of manhood ; but they are big men, and they are strong, and in their present state of bulk they weigh exactly 203 stones 11 lbs. This is an American method, perhaps, of introducing eighteen gentlemen to the public; for the Yankees, when they have told you the income of their celebrated man and accounted for his accre tion of wealth, described the colour of his every -day coat, and added, by way of zest, the peculiar scandal connected with his name, finish by giving you his weight and what he measures round the waist. It is not, however, in this kind of spirit that we mention the weight of these repre sentatives of Oxford and Cambridge. Weight is an im portant element in the cause they are sent here to uphold, because with them weight mostly represents strength, and strength success. Our readers will see from this that the eighteen gentlemen in question come to the spot we have obscurely hinted at to compete for something. And yet the something they are about to contend for is nothing but honour. Hotspur, we know, thought it an "easy leap," " To pluck bright honour from the pale-faced moon Or dive into the bosom of the deep, And pluck up drowned honour by the locks." And although these strong men of the colleges may look upon the pursuit of honour a trifle more seriously than Hotspur did, they come to us in Henry Percy's spirit, and with all his sell-sacrificing gallantry. But to make the matter clear, we must divide the eighteen gentlemen by two ; range each division under its proper colours, and so arrive at the fact that nine Oxford mon have come to Putney to meet there nine Cambridge men, for a friendly contest of skill, strength, and endurance. As we have alluded to the gross weight of the competitors, we may mention that, in this respect, when the two bodies of men are separated they come to us upon remarkably fair terms. Put all the Cambridge men into one scale, and the Oxford men into another, and there shall be no kicking of the beam. The difference will be only just one pound ; and although the imposition of a single pound on a horse's back has some times decided the result of a race, the extra pound carried by the gentlemen from the Cam can scarcely be looked upon as likely to influence the result of the contest for which they are making preparation. A very able critic of a former University boat-race said that "good big men were better than good Mlle men." He meant physically , of course. But upon this occasion there will be no room for arsuccrincr fha '2ll innUl o - CU TRIM% Shylock himself would have thought little of this extra "pound of flesh," and we only refer to it to show how nearly alike in the matter of weight the competitors really are. And what is the object of this notable competition ? Simply, then, the winning of a boat race, but a boat race upon which the eyes of aristocratic and middle-class Eng land are fixed with an innaremt A endured. In 1829 the students of Oxford and CaTeriugt, first contended as oarsmen at Henley-on-Thames. Oxford won " easily" we are told. In 1836 the contest was resumed, and in a race from Westminster to Putney Cambridge left the Oxonians behind, and had a minute to spare. 111-luck attended the men of the Isis in the three succeeding struggles ; but in 1842 they "pulled the thing off," with 13 seconds to spare. Then Cambridge again for three years resumed the mastery; then Oxford for three; then the victory alternated between the crews, till, in 1861, Oxford inaugurated a long series of successes, scoring, with last year's race, four triumphs in regular sequence against the unfortunate wearers of the light blue ribbon. To show what kind of work these men do, we may mention that one rough day—the 15th of April, 1859, the tumbling water surged into the Cambridge boat, and at Barnes Railway bridge swamped it with all hands. Happily there were no lives lost ; but a more curious shipwreck cannot well be imagined. The Cambridge craft was light—too light, and long before she reached the scene of her sudden subsidence her men were pulling hard ankle-deep in water. They made no attempt to leave the wreck : it left them. As to turning ashore to avoid the catastrophe they scorned the action, and the eight-oar went as calmly down at Barnes Bridge as did the Royal George when she heeled over at Spithead and took in at her open ports the weight that carried her to the grave. What was this but trying to pluck up drowned honour by the locks ? We cannot well call that year's contest a positive defeat for Cam- _ bridge. Strictly speaking, however, Oxford must be credited with the honours of that incomplete struggle, and therefore we find the more ancient University coming to Putney this year with the prestige resulting from the odd victory. Cambridge has carried off the palm ten times, Oxford eleven, and we shall shortly see whether the men of the Cam are able to make things even or not. In a contest like this there is always that perfect honesty and good faith which are the life and soul of lofty emulation. We may depend upon our athleta3 when they don the dark blue of Oxford or the light azure of the sister University. Each seat of learning has its natural esprit de corps—its earnest desire to see its men victorious; but beyond this wholesome feeling there is none of the vulgar partisanship common to some less admirable trials of vigour. As we have said, as far as the immediate contest is concerned, there is nothing won, nothing lost, but honour, There is not even the "tin pot" which rewards the aspirants to aquatic fame in some other competitions. Pure emula tion, unadulterated love of excellence, move these Uni versity men to put themselves through a course of hard training, to be as obedient as children to the word of com mand, and to practise a self-denying ordinance, that to some minds would seem sackcloth and ashes, a hair shirt, and unboiled peas in the shoes of pilgrimage. 1 Many of our readers may not know what this " training" —this system of preparation is. They see these men in the pride of their youthful vigour, instinct with ease, grace, and, withal, decent modesty. They cannot choose but admire this perfection of early manhood. How is it acquired? Without going into the minutife of the sub ject, without making a catalogue of what these selected oarsmen eat, drink, and avoid, we may say that the system they adhere to in their training is one of practical virtue. The old sin that emasculated the Romans-,--the sin of luxury —they are strangers to. They work hard, and they in dulge their appetites in moderation. They represent Bant ingism "with a difference." Early to bed and early to rise are essentials of their discipline. Indeed, they do all that which men of their class are too often apt to neglect or to undo. And the result we shall see on the Bth of April iiext Oxford has come to Putney early this year ; and Cambridge will follow after a few days' interval. Whether the one University or the other carries off the honours of the contest is a matter of no such moment as the fact that these eighteen gentlemen are engaged in upholding the strength, skill, and stamina of the gentler society to which they belong. In this respect they call for our best recog• nition ; while, at the same time, the struggle they are pre paring for is one of the most wholesome of the many that afford delight to all well-conditioned Englishmen. To-day, we believe, the gentlemen of the dark blue rib bon take their first paddle over the course ; and, no doubt, many will be "there to see." The excitement arising last year from the fact that the honours of the odd victory were in question, will this year be almost equalled by the pretty general expectation that a great, a close race, is i n prospect. We hope this feeling will not be disappointed. It will be more satisfactory to both crews should an almost neck-and-neck struggle end in a well-won victory.— Herald.
