The report of Mr. Farnall, Poor-law Board In spector, into the complaints of Miss Becton, against the management of Rotherhithe Workhouse Infir- mary, has just been published. Mr. Farnall con siders that the evidence adduced proves, amongst other things, the following :—That the master and matron did not meet Miss Becton's complaints, nor fulfil the requirements which she made to them ; that the medical officer took no steps to obtain either pauper or paid night nurses, though fully aware that there were bed-ridden patients in the infirmary ; that neither the master nor assistant master visited the sleeping wards of the male pau pers at the times they ought to have done ; that the matron did not visit the sleeping wards of the female paupers by day and night as she should have done ; that the pauper nurses supplied to Miss Beeton were old and inexperienced, and that one of theca beat and ill-used the patients ; that the sick pa tients were sent to the infirmary in a dirty and neglected state ; that the medical appliances of the infirmary were extremely defective ; that the beds were very hard, and that bits of bone and flint were in some of them, and that maggots were seen on one of them ; that the dietary of pauper patients was insufficient and not properly served ; that one of the pauper laundresses was addicted to drink, and that the nurse Britton took opium. A letter has been sent from the Poor-law Board to Miss Beeton, saying that the guardians have inquired re specting certain charges made against her by the workhouse master, and find that they rest on mere idle gossip ; that the guardians have inquired also into the matters of which Miss Beeton com plained, some ha i o f them,pla in e h d, u t and w thatuld haveth e they done hay so earlier e now remedied her capacity of nurse, made known the char g es to them ; that the guardians have come to the conclu sion that the charges against Miss Beeton are with out foundation. Mr. Farnall's report on an inquiry held with re spect to alleged mismanagement of the sick poor in Paddington Workhouse is also published. the charges were made by Mrs. Bateman, a paid nurse, and were brought under the notice of the Poor-law Board by the Earl of Carnarvon, on behalf of the Metropolitan Workhouse Infirmary Association : The affidavits prove, Mr. Farnall thinks, the follow ing facts :—That the sick wards are contained in two distinct infirmaries, called the new and the old, and not scattered all over the house ; that in the old infirmary as many as three sick children, with va rious complaints, some of them infectious, have been put to sleep together ; that the sick are not classified, but that the aged, young, infirm, chro nically and acutely sick, are or have been warded together in the same room, and that an aged patient, of dirty habits, and with vermin on her, named Stannett, was warded with sick children, and that a noisy lunatic, named Luke, disturbed the sick inmates of a ward by night and day for three weeks ; that in addition to giving all the medi cines at the stated hours in the different female sick wards, Mrs. Bateman had a certain amount of dispensing to do, together with the personal dis tribution of all the clean and dirty linen both of the wards and the inmates, and the distribution of stores; that Mrs. Bateman was consequently unable to per form satisfactorily to herself the duties of nursing, and that some of the pauper nurses on whom she had to rely were incompetent and behaved harshly and cruelly to some of the patients, and that the lady visitors occasionally gave the pauper nurses small sums of money to secure their kindness to the sick ; that a woman named Ward was afflicted with bed sores, but was obliged to lie on a straw mattress until Mrs.Batemau obtained an air mattress for her, and that while Mrs. Bateman was nurse she was not supplied with mackintosh sheets for dirty patients ; and that a paralysed patient named Dunsford fell twice out of bed in one night for want of assistance and for whom a night nurse was ordered, but not supplied. Mr. Farnall also directs the attention of the Poor-law Board to some additional facts elicited during the inquiry. He states that there are no paid night nurses ; that the friends of a sick pauper, Mary Macdonald, were not permitted to see her, or detained sometimes an hour and a half before they could do so, because " neither M'Donald herself nor her friends would give any account of her settle ment ;" that the sick patients give beer to the pauper nurses ; that apauper nurse, when called up at night, only attended to such calls as she thought proper ; that the sick inmates complain to lady visitors of cruelty on the part of the pauper nurses; and that the matron does not visit the sick wards every day. Mr. Farnall advises the board to direct the appoint ment of an adequate staff of nurses ; that the medi cal officer should attend thoroughly to his own de partment and its requirements, and that the master should be informed that in cases of sickness or ne cessity inmates should be.permitted to see their friends on other than appointed visiting days. With respect to a charge of immorality against Mrs. Bateman while acting as nurse at St. Pancras work house, Mr. Farnall reports that the charge was groundless, and that a charge of indiscretion only could be maintained. Mr. Farnall also informs the board that, although the guardians discharged Mrs. Bateman because she was " inefficient in mid wifery," the advertisement through which she was appointed did not require such efficiency as a quali fication, nor was her efficiency tested during the month she held office at the Paddington Workhouse. .

WH ON ISTLES IN L ' DON.—yesterday even ing Dr . Laukester held an inquest on the body of Edmund Scott, a cab owner and driver, aged 54, who was killed by being struck on the head by a gentleman's horse, which reared on hearing a whistle from a railway engine which was passing over the bridge iu Waterloe-road. The horse was ridden by Mr. W. Hitchcock, of Tanfield-court , Temple, who stated that it became quite uncontrollable. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental Death," and appended to their verdict the following resolution : —" The jury empanelled at tie City of Lond on Tavern, on the 15th day of August, on the body of E dmund Scott, having re turned a verdict of " Accidental Death,"are of opinion that the deceased came to his death by a horse which struck him having been frightened by a railway whistle at the Waterloo-bridge Station; and they would respectfully call the attention of tho President of the Board of Trade to the dangerous practice of railway engines whistling in the midst of the traffic of the metropolis, as they have had it represen ted to them that this practice is the cause of nume rous accidents and frequent deaths in London." The coro• ner agreed with the resolution, and said he Would forward it to the President of the Board of Trade. THE CHOLERA. MANSION-HOUSE RELIEF COMMITTEE. Yesterday nearly £BOO was received at the Man sion-house alone towards the Cholera Relief Fund, in addition to money paid into banks in connexion with it, thus making the total amount of subscrip tions for eight days up to last evening about £B,OOO, a little more or less. The Relief Committee held a meeting yesterday to consider applications for as- sistance from the fund, and to make grants in money, according to the attendant circumstances of each, and to be distributed in all cases through the agency of local committees. There were present _ _ the Lord Mayor, acting as chairman ; Mr. Thomas Baring, M.P. ; Sir Mordaunt Wells ; the Rev. Wm. Rogers, rector of Bishopsgate ; the Rev. F. G. Blomfield, rector of St. Andrew Undershaft ; Dr, Andrew Clark, physician to the London Hospital ; Mr. Charles Hetton, Mr. R. N. Fowler, Mr. Samuel Hoare, Mr. R. B. Wade, Mr. Andrew Johnston, Mr. Ripley, Mr. Needham, and Mr. NV. J. Maxwell. The committee wish it to be publicly known that as a rule they make no grants except on personal appli cation to them at the Mansion-house, and then only to such of the inhabitants of the infected districts as have formed themselves into local committees for relieving the distress. _ . A deputation of churchwardens and vestrymen representing a local committee of ten, from the parish of St. George-in-the-East, attended the com mittee. The population of the parish is nearly 50,000, mostly of the labouring and working classes, many of whom, they said, are almost without the common necessaries of life. The parish has suffered very severely from the epidemic, no less than 196 deaths having been registered from cholera and diarrhoea during the three weeks up to Saturday last, and many of the persons so dying were heads of families. The consequence is a great increase in the destitution of the neighbourhood, and cases were constantly coming to the knowledge of the local committee where a little timely relief would prove invaluable. One of the deputation stated that in many cases poor people had parted with almost all they had in order to bury the dead, and that in others the destitution was so great and pressing that they had asked the churchwardens first to give them food before money to bury the dead. For some days 15 or 16 dead bodies lay in a deadhouse in connection with the parish church for want of means among the relatives to bury them. The circumstances led to some outcry, and at last means were found to inter them. The committee granted the deputation £lOO ; and to a deputation from St. Mary, in St. George-in the East, £25, and five gallons of port wine. _ _ Mr. ALEX brought under the consideration of the committee the state of the Jewish poor, among whom the epidemic is prevalent, as elsewhere. The Jewish Board of Guardians in Devonshire-square, he said, had employed a sanitary inspector of its own since the first alarm of the outbreak of the plague in Russia, and the result had been very favourable. Still, as the returns for the past three wee ks showed, the Jewish poor, some thousands in number, had not been exempted from the present epidemic. Upon the motion of the Lord Mayor, in consideration of the great liberality towards the fund which had been shown by the wealthier members of the Jewish community, the committee granted £l5O and ten gallons of port wine. A numerous deputation of parishioners from Limehouse, including the rector and churchwardens, had an interview with the committee. They are organising local committees for house to house visi tations, and for distributing relief. On the receipt of the Order in Council they went vigorously to work, and deodorised and disinfected the worst parts of the parish, and in that way thought they had arrested the progress of the disease. In one week they had 92 deaths in a population of from 30,000 to 40,000, but the disease had now much abated. A great deal of distress, however, from cholera ex isted, and their poor rate is as high as 4s. Bd. in the pound. The committee voted them £2OO. To a de putation from St. Paul's, Southwark, with the Rev. Mr. Howlett, the rector, at their head—a district with a population of 7,600, iu which several cases of cholera had occurred since Sunday, and the poverty was extreme—the committee granted £lOO. They also voted £lOO to the Metropolitan Free Hospital, Devonshire-square, to be wholly expended in the relief of cholera patients ; £5O to a local com mittee of Roman Catholics in the districts of St. Mary and St. Michael, Commercial-road ; £25 to the German and Dutch House of Mercy in Bow- road ; a similar sum to the parish of St. Thomas Stepney ; and £5O to a local committee in `'Yap. ping, of whieh the Rev. S. B. Burnaby, the rector, is chairman. In the parish of St. Thomas, Stepney, with a population of about 14,000, there had been more than 100 cases of cholera, and 48 deaths. In a small street there of 36 houses 11 persons had died of the disease. pr. Before the committee separated yesterday, a nd A. CLARK, Physician to the London P o n ln e to say member was ofa greatthe committee ; of the taha tit that he was opposed committee had appeared to do, a temporary cholera to the proposal for establishing Whitechapel. On t s reer, hospital in Comm?r d ea e thought every preparation mistake the contrary, hesaid any fresh outbreak of cholera ; should be ma de for time he held that, to herd together but, at the same a g reat many pe ople afflicted with cholera in one place, W i t h ou t due regard to space, and to carry out theor i e s of ventilation , would be a dan gerous expe riment. Some doctors thought that 500 cubic feet of space was enough for each patient in an hospital for cholera patients, but he contended that 1,000 cubic feet was the very least that should be allowed for each patient. For himself he should prefer 1,200 cubic feet for each bed, and he must enter his pro test against any hospital for the reception of cholera patients which provided no greater space for each patient than 500 cubic feet. Sir MORDAUNT WELLS, speaking from his own experience, said 1,200 cubic feet was the space allowed in India for each patient.

Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers a n d Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and h ave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. T o meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2;000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £ l , OOO more will 'so required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ?

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS, For the y e ar ending 3 0 th June, 1866, read at the ANNUAL GENE RAL MEETING, 10th August, 1866. CHARL ES CHATFIELD, Esq., in the chair. The Directors have t he satisfaction of re p ortin g to the proprietors that, in p ursuance of the resolutions unani mously passed at the Special General Meeting held in April last, the amalgamation of the National Mercantile Assurance Society with the Eagle has been carried into effect, and two of the directors of that society—Mr. Wil coxon (heretofore the chairman), and Mr. William Fre derick De la Rue—nano occupy seats at the Eagle Board. The following account exhibits the increased income and outgoing of the year arising from the junction, which it may be remembered takes effect retrospectively, and the balance-sheet shows the assets as they existed on the 30th Juno last, augmented by those just. transferred. By the Surplus Fund account it will be seen that the total income from premiums and interest is .£183,376 Os. 11d., and the total outgoing £414,790 13s. 6d. The dif ference, £68,585 7s. 5d., and the surplus fund contributed by the amalgamated society, viz., £151,545 Bs. 6d., increase tho on foregoing year ; but at the same the surplus fund of the company to £899,095 Bs. new - assurances are considerably those smaller of portion of them has been devoted to time lss a than The m premiumsu c h re-assurance. The change in the financial position of the Company precludes an exact comptuison with former years. The expenses of management of the Eagle for the year aro al most identical iu amount with those of the last. The ex penses of the National Mercantile Society will, of course, henceforth cease. Deducting the several items payable on demand, or at an early maturity, the realised assets, as set forth' in the balance sheet, amount to £2,559,135 4s. Bd. Of this sum £178,340 belongs exclusively to the proprietors, £1,481,699 IGs. Bd.* exclusively to the policy holders, and £899,095 Bs. partly to the one and partly to the other. The last two items subject, of course, to exact adjustment at each quin quennial investigation. It remains only for the Directors to mention thaf, since the last annual meeting the Company has lost, by the de cease of Sir William Gore Ouseley, and by the retirement of Mr. Gould, the services of two of the members of the board. Both gentlemen were much respected, and it is with great regret that the directors have to make this an nouncement. * £5,880,163 14s. 4d., less £4,398,463175. Bd. SURPLUS FUND ACCOUNT. DR.

The evidence which they have taken, and of which they presented a portion last year, and now present the remainder, is of the highest value, and deserves careful attention. It raises several great questions ofpolicy upon a subject of general interest; and many of the wit nesses suggest material and fundamental alteration in the whole system of national education, and in the constitution of the department of the Government at present charged with its administration. It touches not only upon modi fications of the existing rules under which the State assists the voluntary efforts of private persons, but raises the ques- tion whether the action of the central department should not be more largely aided by local organisation ; whether the principle of rating should not, to some extent, take the place of the principle of voluntary effort; and whether, as a consequence of these changes, a system of mixed reli gious education must not be substituted for the denomina tional system now in operation. " These are questions upon which it is obviously unde sirable to disturb and unsettle the minds of those who are actively engaged in the promotion of the existing system, unless there is a clear prospect of arriving at conclusions which it may reasonably be expected that the Legislature will adopt. But it would be difficult to come to any such conclusion without a knowledge of the view which her Majesty's Government may take of the subject. This knowledge, owing to a peculiar combination of circum stances, your committee are unable at present to obtain. "During the whole of their inquiry they have had the advantage of the presence and the assistance of the Vice president of the Committee on Education, who has repre sented the views of the Government of which he was a member. At the moment, however, of proceeding to the discussion of their report, that right hon. gentleman only holds office until his successor shall bo appointed. If your committee adjourn their proceedings until a new Adminis tration has been formed, and has had time to consider the important and difficult questions to which reference has been made, it is obviously impossible that they should come to a conclusion in the present session. " Under the present circumstances, your committee have decided, though with great regret, that they cannot, for want of time, enter with advantage upon tho discussion of the important draft report presented to them by their chair man, and have resolved to lay the evidence alone upon the table of your honourable , house ; leaving it for your honourable house to determine whether they shall be re appointed next year in order to prepare a report thereon." The report proposed by the chairman, Sir John raking- on, contained the following recommendations:— "1. That the Committee of Council on Education, as being no longer adapted to the purpose for which it was formed, should cease to exist. "2. That there should be a Minister of Public Instruc tion, with a seat in the Cabinet, who should be entrusted with the care and superintendence of all matters relating to the national encouragemett of science and art and popular education in every part of the country. "3. That although they cannot endanger the supply of competent teachers by proposing abandonment of the teacher's certificate as a condition of assistance -to the school, such a modification of that condition should be adopted as would prevent it from being, as it now is, an impediment to the extension of education. "4. The establishment of local organisation in connec tion with the Education Department; so as to put an end to the present injurious centralisation, and enable the superintendence of education to be conducted in a manner similar to that in which the poor law is administered by boards of guardians under the guidance and control of the Poor-law Board. "5. That power should be given to levy a rate for the promotion of education in certain cases, to be defined. " 6. That to meet the difficulty caused by small area and population of many parishes, small schools should be com bined under a good circulating master, or small parishes combined with a good central school, as the circumstances of the locality might render most expedient. "7. That the numerous educational endowments, now almost useless, should bo reformed, and male available. "8. That the difficulty caused by religious differences should bo met by the compulsory adoption of the Con science Clause,' in every trust deed, and the Education 31inister being empowered to suspend the annual grant to any school on proof of exclusioa ur unltio restraint of non conformists on religious grounds. " 9. That the impediments to education in Wales, arising from the state of religious opinion in that country, should be met by the adoption, in a liberal spirit, of some plan simi lar to those suggested in the evidence and in this report." THE PUBLIC HEALTH. The following is the weekly return of the Regis trar-General of births and deaths in London and in 12 other large towns of the United Kingdom : General Register-office, Somerset-house, August 13. In the week that ended on Saturday, August 11, the births registered in London and 12 other large towns of the United Kingdom were 4,173 ; the deaths registered 4,059. The annual rate of mortality was 3 per 1,000 persons living. In London the births of 1,021 boys and 950 girls, in all 1,971 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks of ten years, 1856-65, the average number, corrected for increase of population, was 1,915. The deaths registered in London during the week were 2,299. It was the 32d week of the year ; and the average number of deaths for that week is, with a correction for increase of population, 1,366. The deaths in the present return exceed the estimated number by 933. _ . The weekly deaths are declining; 2,299 deaths were registered last week; 2,661 in the week pre ceding. The deaths are less by 52 daily than they were in the previous week ; and the whole of the decrement is accounted for by the fall of the deaths by cholera and diarrhoea from 1,407 to 1,045. Of cholera 781, of diarrhoea 264 persons died last week ; of both forms of disease, 1,0-15 ; which is less than the numbers in the previous week by 362, thus distributed in respect of ages :--Tinder 20 the de crease of children's deaths is 228, at 20-40 the de crease is 80, at 40-60 it is 42, at 60-80 it is 16 ; of old people of 80 and upwards the deaths have in creased by 4. The decrease in the mortality of children is gra tifying evidence of the good effects of increased care for their lives. As the east districts were devastated to the greatest extent, they last week experienced the greatest re lief ; the deaths in them from the epidemic, includ ing diarrhoea and cholera, fell from 1,041 to 774, and the decline is observable in each of the districts. 10,898 persons have died in London during the last five weeks, a number exceeding the corrected average by 4,213. Within the last five weeks 3,116 persons died of cholera ; 1,338 of diarrhoea. The mortality in the west distkicts was at the annual rate of 24 ; in the east districts at the rate of 82 per 1,000 inhabitants. In the west districts 225, in the east districts 3,182 poi .sons died of cholera and diarrhea ; the estimate , I population being respec tively 511,258 and 607045. To facilitate the inquiry into the causes, and to supply information to those who are engaged in combating the epidemic, the particulars o f every death in London are :now published dail y ; all the deaths, for instance, registered o n Monday in the districts of London from. Fulham to Woolwich can be procured on Tuesday evening by scientific men at the Queen's printers. The deaths registered from cholera in the east districts during the seven days of the week were 223 on Sunday and Monday ; 1.14 on Tuesday ; 90, 98, 71, and 78 on the four follovving days ; in all Lon don on the same days 249, 13 0, 109, 1.14, 85, 94.
