Giving a full description of the perfect insect from nature ; also a description of the Caterpillar, Chrysalis, Food Plant, Time of Appearance, and Localities where found. Each moth is drawn from nature by George Willis, and engraved hi his best style by John Kerchner. The figures are-life-size of every species : and if varieties require it, three, four, five, and even six figures are given The work is ,omplete in thirty-one monthly numbers, at 6d. each. The work is also issued in quarterly parts, in covers, at Is. 6d. each part. Part X. new ready, price 2s, Back numbers reprinted, and may be had. "We congratulate British entomologists on the completion and publication of this magnificent work."—Field. " Both to the beginner and the proficient in that study this work will be invaluable. '—Daily Teleyraph. " It is illustrated with life-size figures from nature of each species, and of the more striking varieties, and it possesses great advantages over all similar works, inasmuch as the caterpillar of each moth, with his habits and season, is described. This, to collectors, will be an immense boon, and by its means they will be enabled to obtain many rare specimens."—Standard. "The completion of Mr. Newman' work on the British Moths is a benefit to entomologists of all classes. It is at once a text-book by a high authority, most valuable for reference, and a handsome, taste fully got-up volume, which will be an ornament to any library or drawing-room table. It embodies the results of many years' earnest and intelligent work by one whose reputation as an ento mologist deservedly stands high. . . . . We notice also with satisfaction that Mr. Newm a n's descriptions, whilst thoroughly scientific and minute, are given in plain and unaffected English. With the help of these and the very excellent woodcuts, even a very young collector may with ease identify any moth he may cap ture. The figures are so well drawn that there is no need of colour to render them life-like. . . . We unhesitatingly commend this volume to our readers. We regard it as .. very useful addition to our library." Land and Water, Oct. 9. London—W. TwEEDIE, 337. Strand, W.C. Just published, price is 6d., by post is.

D U BARRY'S delicious health-restoring Invalids, and Infanta' Food, THE REVALENTA ARABICA, saves fifty times its cost in other remedies, and restores perfect digestion, strong nerves, sound lungs, healthy liver, refreshing sleep, functional regularity, and energy to the most disordered or enfeebled—removing speedily and effectually indigestion (dyspep sia), cough, asthma, consumption, habitual constipation, diarrhoea, all gastric derangements, htemorrhoids, liver complaints, flatu lency, nervousness, biliousness, fevers, sore throats, diphtheria, catarrhs, colds, influenza, noises in the head and ears, rheumatism, gout, impurities, eruptions, hysteria, neuralgia, irritability, sleep lessness, acidity, palpitation, heartburn, headache, debility, dropsy, cramps, spasms, nausea, and sickness, even in pregnancy or at sea, sinking fits, and bronchitis, scrofula, tightness of the chest, pains at the pit of the stomach ancl between the shoulders. It is the most digestible and nourishing of all foods, and suitable for invalids and infants in all complaints. IMPORTANT CAUTION.—Beware of the many unsavoury and more than slopy imitations to which, without authority, Baron Liebig's name is most audaciously attached. Henceforth none will doubt the valuable properties of Du Barry's health restoring Revalenta Arabica Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings it has already received from invalids whose position had been deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope, whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the Gazette du Midi," July 25th. (Cure No. 48,41 9 ):—"R0me, July 21st, 1866.—The health of the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta A' abica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal.

The defeat of a favourite (favourites do not often win), is such a common event that little notice is usually given it ; but the overthrow of Macgregor seems to have produced a deep impression. It was an extraordinary occurrence. First Kingcratt, the favourite for the Two Thousand, was easily beaten in that race by Macgregor; and then Macgregor, the chosen one for the Derby, was overthrown with equal ease by Kingcraft. The unhappy seers are quite melancholy. They know not where to put their trust, and they prophesy with a heavy heart. The non-sporting journals moralise in a severe vein. The Telegraph thinks the race of Wednesday is indicative of decay in the great na tional sport. "A worse horse than Muster probably never got a place in Epsom's great contest; and so small a field has only once before started within the last twenty-five years. But, in addition, the numbers assembled at Epsom exhibited a marked decline, and the result of the race is calculated to put reasonable men out of conceit with Turf certain ties." The' Telegraph hopes that the unplaced Mac gregor will cause some few who are not inextricably entangled to pause and ask themselves whether the pursuit of horse-racing, though it may reasonably be upheld as a diversion,is worthy to be made the business of a life. The 'limes is bitterly sarcastic on the people who rush up to London and to Epsom to see little or nothing of the race they came expressly to see. " What can be more frantic than to pursue some thing of which the only pleasure is in the prospect, of which the fruition is disappointment, and of which in countless cases the retrospect is regret ? " Alto gether the usual bombastic talk about this glorious holiday is, conspicuous by its absence. The Dissenters and Education. It is becoming obvious that a large propor tion at least of the Nonconformists are not disposed to accept the Government amendments to the Edu cation Bill. The Congregational Union of Surrey has declared that no schools created by school boards should be of a denominational character, and that from such schools denominational formularies and teach ing should be excluded. Religion should not be excluded from education, but the Government should not interfere with it. Church Schools in Wales. A. couple of letters, on the subject of Church Education in Wales, have passed between the Bishop of Llandaff and Mr. E. M. Richards, M.P. It appears that in some mining districts in Sou - th Wales the inhabitants are taxed for school purposes in the shape of a deduction from wages to meet the employers' contributions to schools. Mr. Richards thinks this practice—for the schools thus supported are generally Church schools, wi ereas the inhabitants are mostly Dissenters —exceedingly objectionable. He quotes the report of a Government inspector to prove that great discontent prevails among the people employed. "In several of them the workmen submit, as they are obliged to do, to the deduction of the poundage, but send their children to other schools, and pay the usual fee for them there. Nay, in some instances they have done more than this— they, have built schools at their own expense." The Bishop of Llandaff does not deny that the grievance exists; but holds that the objection ofthe parents has been much exaggerated. " I believe that the chief object of the parents is to send their children to the best school, and that the majority of the working classes in South Wales belonginc , to Dissenting denominations, whether in the agricultural or mining districts, if left to their own unbiassed action, would trouble themselves very little about any other con sideration." This may be correct enough, but it is hardly a justification for taxing Dissenting work people to maintain Church schools. The Fenians in London. There is no doubt that the Government is in posses sion of unpleasant information with regard to the . operation of the London Fenians. The seizures of arms, and the arrival in the City of men, whose faces have ere this becdme f am iliar as sympathisers, at least, with the conspiracy, have considerably tended to confirm private reports tendered from sources always at the command of Colonel Henderson. Within the past week the police at the .railway stations and other places of arrival have been unusually numerous and vigilant. Yesterday morning the suspected Fenians in custody were escorted by a convoy of mounted constables, armed with cutlasses, to the police-court. The streets leading to the House of Detention are also watched by more grave and silent police than for months past. The most alarming intelligence, however, of pre cautionary meaures is reported from Wool wich. There extra guards have been placed in charge of all buildings, arms, powder, &c., that may be exposed to attack, and boats, containing crews of Thames police, armed with revolvers, have been ordered to cruise about day and night on the river, in front of the Royal Arsenal, in preparation for any emergency. Lord Mayo's Policy in India. The Calcutta correspondent of the Times says the policy of Lord Mayo in India is a policy of public works. The Governor-General has charged himself with the direct supervision of the public works department the details of which are so over whelming that the most independent man would be in the hands of his secretary. What is condemned, says the Times correspondent, and what Lord Mayor will find no support in, is the attempt to spend twelve millions sterling a year on public works through a department organised as that is over which Colonel Strackney presides. It is all well he argues, to boast of this enormous expenditure, to cry up the new policy of State Railways and State Canals, to point to the expenditure of one fifth of the land revenue every year on works that will not return a penny to the Treasury, but is the country getting its money's worth ? Before year after year so much money is spent he considers it becomes an earnest and high-principled Govern ment like that of India to satisfy itself on this sub ject by formal inquiry The Halfpenny Newspaper Stamp. "A Working Man" considers that the Govern ment have taken a curious step in the issue of the halfpenny stamp on newspapers to shew that they are anxious to encourage the cheap . press. The change, he says, will only benefit the rich readers of the Times and the weekly papers, while the readers of the cheap daily press, who cannot procure their copies at the railway station, but must have them sent by post, will have to pay an additional taxunder the new JUNE -3, 1870. arrangement, averaging from Os. to 13s. per annum. He contends that the proposal of the Government to allow the threepenny paper with its supplement weighing nearly six ounces, to be sent for the same price AS the ld. paper, which weighs under three ounces, is an anomaly in legislation which is a disgrace to the` present century. He wishes it not to be mis understood that the present tariff actually imposes a tax upon the working man, as at the present time they can obtain a parcel of newspapers at a penny for every four ounces, but under the new regulation, supposing this parcel contains four papers, which it does in many instances, the conveyance by the post office will cost double the amount. The Ladies' College at Cheltenham. _ There is an institution at Cheltenham known as the Ladies' College," which has attained a well deserved fame for the successes it has ensured to a large number of English girls in respect of their educa tion. Of late years whenever a "local " or other public examination has been held in the neighbour hood of Cheltenham, the names of some students .of the college have invariably been prominently forthcoming in the honour lists. It is only a few days, indeed, since the announcement was made that all the five pupils of the first-class who went in for the sy_gaeu's examination of the University of. London fromfielienham " passed," while two of the number - gained certificates. To a school, in which efforts have been so happily undertaken for the cul ture and higher education of young ladies, the eyes of those who have it in their power to assist and encourage good works, do not long remain closed. It is a pleasing duty to record that a Peninsular hero, Colonel Church Pearce, has been one of the first admirers of the college and he has become its benefactor. Knowing full well that in _ the army . there are many officers young as well as old in service, who have not the means of giving their daughters the • opportunity of a worthy education, the gallant colonel has devoted £l,OOO for a scholarship at the Ladies' College, to be open to girls, whose fathers are in the army, but whose positions in • society are threatened by pecuniary trials or other circumstances of misfortune. The English Exodus. Among the benevolent-minded ladies who at tended at the platform of the St. Pancras Station, On Wednesday, to brighten the departure of the last party of emigrants who have left London, were the Countess of Gainsborough, the Hon. Elizabeth Waldegrave, the Hon. Mrs. Hobart, and Miss Verney. Three hundred and fifty men, women, and children, were entertained by these noble-minded women at a parting festival in one of the large waiting-rooms of the terminus. A tea table had been spread, and presents of provi sions to the - women and toys to the children were distributed plentifully at it. Encou raging speeches were made to the emigrUdits by Mr. White, the emigration commissioner from Canada, and some of the ladies, and thanks were returned by several of the men, some of whom stated that they had " begged hard for work " befoie they resolved to start for a new life in an England where starvation was unknown. When the station master gave warning that the train was about to start for Liverpool, the women hastily collected their little ones and their small bundles, and. amid many expressions of regret at parting, and of hope and blessings in the new life, and of gratitude for help proffered in an hour of sore need, the train passed away from Lon don. The character of each adult :in this case was well known, and none but " respectable hardworking people" were permitted to enjoy the aid given. There are thousands of people still in the East-end of London, auxious to escape from a life of prolonged misery and struggling, and it is, therefore, to be hoped that the good work in which high ladies of the laud are not too proud to take a part, will be recognised and aided by the wives of the English gentry and by the gentry . themselves, until the " want of employment" cry which is heard of so often, and which will once more be a subject for the " special consideration" of the House of Commons on Friday, June 17th, will have ceased, or nearly so, from the land. London Pauperism. Sir C. E. Trevelyan, in a letter to the Times, graphically depicts the relationship between pauperism and crime. London, he says, is the fore-. most city of Christendom, and at this season the delegates assemble there of societies which have for their object the evangelisation of the world. Yet this London is in its pauperised demoralized state, a scandal of the age. It is a whited sepulchre which indeed appears beautiful outwardly, but within is full of dead men's bones and of all uncleanness. The relation of the vagrant to the criminal class Sir Charles looks upon as of the most intimate kind. Among other startling statistics he states that in London it is estimated that one person in 150 is a housebreaker, a pickpocket, a shoplifter, a receiver of stolen goods, or a human bird of prey of some sort, which gives upwards of 20,000 of this class. According to two independent calculations, there are about 150,000 children whose parents live in chronic indi gence, and about 100,000 of them loose in London streets, all more or less debased. The enormous facts of London charity—the wholesale indiscriminate action of competing societies, crowned by the munificent individual gifts of rich charitable per sons, are, he submits, responsible for this, having erected mendicancy into a lucrative scientific profes sion. Labour he considers the great antidote to crime, but the effect of modern charity has been to suspend the primeval law, "In the sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat bread till thou return into the ground." Drunkenness and crime follow in the wake of this, for there is no form of sin and sorrow in which the former does not play a part. The only remedy he suggests is by leaving the relief of destitution to the Poor-law, and by throwing the strength of voluntary effort into the great work of training the young to industrious habits, and lending a helping hand to those of mature age who are still capable of performing a useful part in life. The Denham Murders. Mr. F. Charsley, the Coroner under whose war rant the Denham murderer was committed, explains the motives which actuated him in refusing to allow the prisoner to be present at the inquest. He says that in ordinary cases it is right for a party apprehended on suspicion to be present at the inquest, but in this case the chief constable gave him what he could not but feel a sufficient reason for not doing so, namely, that after what had occurred, it would be hardly safe to bring up the man. The course adopted by the chief constable, in placing the coroner's warrant in the hands of the governor of the county gaol, had the effect of preventing a recurrence of the scenes which took place outside the police-court and at the railway-station at the prior hearing before the magistrates. While he fully believes they could rely on the efficiency of their police, he has no doubt that an attempt would have been made to carry the threat of the populace into execution, and the resistance, though successful, would probably have been attended with serious consequences. All this, he says, has been avoided by the adjourned hearing at the county gaol at Aylesbury. Law not Equity. Mental aberration is, by common consent, the most deplorable of all the manifold afflictions from which humanity suffers, and it is certainly not an evil which any, one would lightly or knowingly incur for the sake of pecuniary gain. It is, therefore, not a little singular to find it positively asserted by no mean authority that this calamity de prives the sufferer and his relatives of their claims for help. More especially is this dictum to be mar velled at when the assistance demanded is not eleemosynary,but only the fruits of prudent investment. On what grounds the claim made on behalf of a lunatic member of a sick fund is incorrect and illegal it is impossible for ordinary minds to understand, inas much as madness, more than any other ailment, un fits the. sufferer for providing for himself or his •family. Why, then, should an arbitrary rule bar him and them from profiting 33 the prudent accumulations of his sane days ? Yet the late Mr. Tidd Pratt, the well-known Registrar of Friendly Societies, not only decided against the ap plicant in a case of this sort, but endorsed his decision by the emphatic declaration tliat any payment made to PRICE 1 d STAMPED 2d. the representative of an insane person on the ground of sick money, would subject the secretary of the society to prosecution for misappropriation of the funds! Itis no wonder that when this extraordinary decision was repeated to Mr. Serjeant Wheeler at Liverpool the other day, when trying a similar case, he should have declared his total dissension from it. However, he promised to examine the decisions on the question before giving his judgment, and we shall probably learn in a few days whether this distinction between mens sana and corpus sanuni is to be included among the happy inconsistencies of our English law. The Small-pox in Paris. The prevalence of small-pox in the French capital has become so alarming that the epidemic has been the subject of a question in the Corps Legislatif. It is stated in the official statistics that 2,935 patients have been cured from the disease in Paris since it made its appearance in November last. 692 persons have died, and at present there are 700 sufferers under treatment. The Duc de Can mont la Force and Prince de la Tour d'Auvergne were last week both attacked on the same day. One of the more remarkable victims who have just succumbed to the malady is M. Duval, jhe_c,41,4 7 .,, • tad buteher; WITO' started' the' We'aFtlim rig: houses known so well in Paris as Bouillons Duval. The 'doctors are of course making money very fast, as in additiOn to the positive sufferers they have clients in ..balt, 1 thousands of nervous people, who will insist on having_themselves vaccinated. One practitioner is said to have netted a sum of £9OO within the past three months, solely in vaccination fees. The Canadian Fisheries. Secretary Boutwell has sent a circular to the Ameri can collectors of customs informing them that the DominiOn authorities have terminated the old system of granting fishing licences to foreign ships within three miles .of Canadian shores. The Canadian law of 1868 permits any British naval officer or officer of Customs to go on board any ship within three miles of Canadian coasts, 'and stay on board so long as she remains within such distance. It also provides that such ships and cargo may be seized and forfeited to the Dominion, if they continue within such distance twenty-four hours after being required to depart, the master having not truly answered the questions put to him. Every person opposing the Dominion agent in the execution of his duty or assisting another in so doing shall forfeit eight hundred dollars and be liable to two years' imprisonment. Last January the Governor- General ordered the equipment of suitable sailing ves sels for the protection of the Canadian inshore fisheries against illegal encroachments by foreigners. These vessels are to form a marine branch of the Canadian police force. There has been a change of boundaries between Canada and Labrador, by which the Canadian territory now includes part of the .eastern shore which formerly belonged to Labrador. PARIS CORRESPONDENCE. WEDNESDAY EVENING The Algerian question seems likely to come into promi nence, by way of diverting us from our internal perplexi ties. The Journal Of/Iciel of this morning publishes two reports from the War Minister,General Le Boeuf, and two official decrees, the first of which specially deserves notice as part of our modern constitutional reforms. Hencefor ward the prefects are to exercise full administrative powers in their several departments, being in direct com munication with the Governor-General of Algeria, instead of being, as hitherto, in subordination to the military com manders of the provinces. No practical improvement in the condition of the country, or in the feeling of the people could be looked for so long as this military ascendancy was maintained. The second decree regulates the tenure of land in the Arab districts. The Patrie looks with some suspieiOn on the divisional system proposed, which, it fears, is unsuitable to the nomadic tribe. There has been some talk of a military repulse in Morocco, which will call for a fresh expedition. - This news is not, however, au thenticated. The Committee of the Corps Legislatif has given in its report on the new law for regulating the Coneils- Generaux, but I am sorry to say they refuse to accept the amendments of M. M. Duvernoise and Vendre in favour of public sittings. They think it better for the Conseils themselves to decide this, and content themselves with al,ithorising them to express political wishes, or, in English form, to pass political resolutions. There were gay doings of the Tuileries two nights ago. The Empress gave a private ball, her second this season, and a very brilliant entertainment it was. Her Majesty herself, who was dressed in white, looked very well, and all the beauties and celebrities of the fashionable world were present. Dancing, which is not yet out of fashion, was carried on with spirit, and the party did not break up until three o'clock. The female cigar makers at Toulouse, who were on strike, have come to terms with their employers, who, as in duty bound, have conceded their demands. The slight increase in their salaries has been granted, and the engi neer who had made himself obnoxious to the adventurous dames has been removed. Here is an illustrious illustra tion of feminine powers of persuasion for the " Women's Rights " movement. Apropos of strikes, which have been very general throughout the country, the 27th Regiment has returned to headquarters from Fourchambault, where it had been sent in case of possible disturbance. The directors of the Independence Financiere and the .31essager de Paris have been sentenced to pay a fine of 100 f. each for publishing the Turkish lottery loan adver tisement. They appealed against their sentence, but in vain. MM. Quentin and Cournel, of the Rappel, have given their notice of appeal. This is not surprising, seeing that they were not only condemned to I,ooof. fine each, but to three months' imprisonment. The Empress is said to be anxious to visit St. Cloud, but the Emperor is determined to stay at the Tuileries until the end of the session. Several members of the Corps Diplomatique are ill at the present moment. M. de laTour d'Auvergne is suffering from the prevailing epidemic, and M. Benedetti keeps his room. It was reported that the Government would permit M. Cernuschi to return to France, but such is not the fact; he is definitively exiled, and does not appear anxious to come back, unless it were for a short time to arrange his affairs. The dry weather which has prevailed has given rise to some uneasiness, and the Salut Public of Lyons has recorded with much rejoicing the beneficial downfall of rain which has taken place, and which promises to work wonders for the crops. Forage has been exceedingly dear, but it is hoped the rain will have the effect of providing grass for the cattle. By this means the peasants may be spared the loss of parting with their animals, which they are very likely to do under the influence of fear. The Emperor of Russia is in anything but a flourishing state, and the testimony of one who saw him during his recent visit to Berlin seems to confirm the worst accounts. He was astonished at the change which two years had made in his appearance. He who was once so robust has faded away, and his face bears the traces of long and severe sufferings. Some strange stories are being circulated about the Ple biscite, and the Charivari satirises the notion that pre vailed in some quarters as to its being a panacea for all political ills. A peasant is represented in his wooden shoes looking daggers at a tax-collector, who is handing him the usual gift. " What !" exclaims t the indignant and bewildered rustic, " are you going to ask for money as you used to do ? Why, I voted Oui." A sad tale is told of an old soldier of the First Empire who had been in Mexico for fifty years. He applied to the Mexican Consul to obtain his admission to the Hotel des Invalides. He received an answer to the effect that he would have a free passage home. At St. Nazaire a difficulty arose, as the authorities declined to furnish him with the means of continuing his route, but a young man who was going in the same direction allowed him to ac company him, Arrived at Paris they went to the Minis ter of War, when, to their astonishment, they heard that nothing could be done for the veteran soldier, and that no information had been received from the Mexican Consul. The end of all the deliberations was that the unfortunate old man was sent to the Prefecture of Police. A sad accident has occurred at Vevey to a party of choral singers who were giving their aid to a charitable concert. On returning by the lake, which is very deep, the raft on which they were became disjointed. They were thrown into the water, and twenty of the party were drowned, including magistrates, deputies, &c. -.<-~~ lb 2 ?
