"it is a straightforwardly and sometimes gracefully written Sketch of Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, from the holiday traveller's point of view, not, however, exclusively devoted to matters of scenery or itinerary, but designed to give the voyager an intelligent interest in the manners, customs, industries, and institutions of the districts he is exp/ ring. Fm intending visitors to Norway especially, Mr. Spender s book will be welcome. It has, moreover, the decided advantage of com pression, clearness of style, and easy manageableness of bulk."— Daily Telegraph. "The volume perfectly fulfils its purpose. It is neat and cheap and contains in a small space a great quantity of very interesting matter, much of which will be novel, and all of which will lie useful, not only to those who visit the places described, but to those who stay at home. Mr. Spender is an acute observer, a most industrious and judicious collector of facts, and an eloquent and graphic writer; and does ample justice to his subjects."— Yorkshire Post. "It deserves a welcome, this book we have so long uncon sciously been in search of. The itineraries themselves are to the intending excursionists a veritable benefaction. . . Altogether the book is one to carry in one's knapsack or valise during the happy time of our holiday excursion, and to give a place to on our book-shelves afterwards as a most pleasant remembrancer." —Sun " 'Fjord, isle, and Tor' is a very delightful little book. The essay on Norway is particularly full of information, but the others are not far behind it in proportion to their length, and all are written in a genial spirit."—Globe... • "Without being exactly a guide-book, it answers all the pur poses of one, and contains beside a vast quantity of information, all given in the most condensed form possible. There is not a line of space wasted in fine writint: . , but the descriptions of scenery bear witness to the author's genuine love and appreciation of the picturesque, just as his closely compressed facts and statements prove the practical and hardworking man of letters."—Man chester Courier. " From back to hack ' Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is full of matter interesting equally to the 1 turist and the ordinary reader. It is written in an easy and pleasant style, and is well `got up.' " Eastern Morning News. "We cannot part with this fascinating little work without con gratulating Mr. Spender upon it. Addressed, as it more especially is, to travellers in Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, it is, nevertheless, a book that will afford the keenest gratifica tion to the general public. . . . As to its literary merits we need say nothing, the name of the author being sufficient guarantee on this point."—Western ➢fail.

LIFE INSURANCE. An attempt now being made by one or two New York life insurance companies to establish branch offices, or agencies,.. in London, has called forth from English journals some ill-natured, and, we must add, ill-informed criticism. The critics in question assail generally Ame rican life companies, and cite their lower premiums-- , -as compared with English, or Scottish premiums —as evi dence of untrustworthiness. As to the expediency of the attempt we have nothing to say. There is, perhaps, ample room for doubting the soundness of the judgment which has led the managers of any prosperous American institution to cultivate business in a field so far removed, and already suffering from a reckless competition. Upon this point they must answer to their American policy holders. Apart from this consideration—and it is one that may be easily over-estimated—nothing can be more certain than the absolute sufficiency of the premiums which obtain.in this country for the fulfilment of every legitimate obligation. Any difference in rates is explained by the difference in the relative value of money in the two countries. This, of course, - implies the investment in the United States of moneys received in England ; other wise the argument falls to the ground.

THE PLYMOUTH PROSECUTION UNDER THE CONTAGIOUS DISEASES ACT, On Tuesday the hearing of the first case against Mrs. E. M. King, for resisting the Metropolitan police in the execution of their duty under the Contagious Diseases Acts, at. Plymouth, was resumed. The evidence for the defence was complete, four witnesses having been called, whose testimony was directly opposed to that of the con stables called for the prosecution. There were four summonses against Mrs. King and one against Mr. Cooper. The bench, however, declined to give their decision in this case until the others were heard: The pro secution then preferred s second charge against Mrs. King for inciting a woman, whom the polic e were taki n g, to the Royal Albert Hospital at D evon p or t, t o res i s t th e police, and also a charge against Mr. Cooper, for inciting the same woman to resist. The other two summonses were not gone into. It was contended for the defence that there was positively no resistance or incitement to resist, but that the only object in view on the part of Mrs. King and Mr. Cooper at the time in question was to raise the legal point as to whether the police under the circum stances were justified in apprehending the woman and taking her to the hospital. Several law points were raised in regard to the working of the Acts, which will probably be settled in another court. The bench fined Mrs. King and Mr. Cooper £5 and costs each. Notice of appeal was given. Colonel Corbett will this day ask the Secretary for War whether, considering the probability of the em bodiment of the militia at no distant date, be is prepared to adhere to his arrangements for reducing the quarter masters of that branch of the service ; and also whether there is any objection to complete the equipment of the militia in breech-loading rifles immediately from the 300,000 now in store. With the Parliamentary Papers yesterday were issued copies of the communications received at the Foreign-office from foreign Governments expressing deep regret at the death of the Earl of Clarendon on the 27th June. From Paris Lord Lyons wrote I am requested by the Due de Grammont to express to her-Majesty's Government the deep regret which is felt by the Emperor and Empress and by the French Govern ment. The death of a statesman so thoroughly known and admired, and so much esteemed as a friend of the union between the two countries, and as one of the chief promoters of peace and goodwill throughout the world, will be universally lamented in this country." SCOTCH PROCURATORS FISCAL. The particulars of a very troublesome and unsatisfac tory case are ' (riven in one . of the Parliamentary p a p ers just issued. John Bell, a farmer, of Glenduckie, Fife shire, was unjustly charged in 1865 with sending threaten ingletters. He was found not guilty,and one of the witnesses at the trial, a woman named Edminston, confessed that she had written the letters in question, an offence for which she was afterwards sentenced to five years' penal servi tude. John Bell maintains that the Procurators Fiscal of Fifeshire knew of the woman's confession, but took no steps t o ascer t a i n th e t ru th o f th e m a tt er , being influenced by a personal feeling of animosity against the farmer. Mr. Bell, therefore, memorialised the Lords of the Treasury for the reimbursement of his legal expenses in defending himself from this un just charge. The Lords of the Treasury, in answer said they had no funds at their disposal out of which to make such payment, and that they were not aware of any precedent for reimbursement. The Parliamentary paper before us contains the memorial,the correspondence and the sum total paid by the Crown agent in the several actions in the case including the actions for damages brought by Mr. Bell against the Procurators Fiscal. Altogether the affair has cost £3,057 ls. 5c1., which has been paid from the vote for for Criminal Proceedings (North Britain), under the authority of the Lord Advocate. N AV. \ L AND M i LITA la INTELLIGENCE. e - dmiral W. Ircuf,ton Stewart, superintendent of Devouport Doelzyard, was summoned to London by telegraph on Tuesday morning, and left by the 2.15 train the same day, to meet the Admiralty at White hall the following morning. The object of the summons - is supposed to be a conference as to the capabilities of the yard in reference to the additional work to be put in hand. The Audacious, Iron Duke, and Vanguard, 14, armour plated ships, fitting at Devonport, are progressing rapidly, but it has been found there will be a delay in their being got ready for cea for the want of water and bread tanks, none of those in store being adapted for these ships. It is added that the description of tanks required were sold a few months since by order of the Admiralty. A detachment of Marines of the Plymouth Division is held in readiness to embark on board the Northumber land, to join the Hibernia at Malta, and a second detach- meat is to embark on board the Valiant, 18, armour plated ship, Captain A. Wilmhurst, for Cork. All the non-commissioned officers and others, employed in civil capacities in the barracks, were on. Tuesday ordered to attend a course of musketry instruction—a novelty to a number of those who have hitherto been kept at " non, effective" duties. Orders have been received by Major-General Brownrigg, C. 8., commanding the Chatham district, directing the 7th (Princess Royal's) Dragoon Guards to proceed from Aldershot to Maidstone, where quarters are to be pre pared for the regiment. The troops will occupy Maid stone barracks, in which the Royal Artillery are now quartered. The officers and men of the Royal Engineers are busily employed at Chatham in the formation of batteries, saps, magazines, and other earthworks, preparatory to some extensive siege operations which will shortly be carried out, and in which the whole of the available force at Chatham will take part. The scene of the operations will be the 14yal Engineer depot field works at the et tremity of Chatham great lines. Three of the metropoli tan engineer volunteer corps will take part in the contem plated operations. The Lord Warden (bearing the flag of the Commander in -Chief, Admiral Sir Alexander Milne, K.C.8.), Bel lerophon, Caledonian, and Prince Consort, came to an anchor on the morning of the 23d July, at the entrance of Valetta Harbour, after havin g since their departure thence•on the 7th instant, visited Palermo and Messina. On the 25th set about replenishing fuel, in the expectation of weighing and proceeding without entering port on the the 27th for Gibraltar to meet the Channel fleet, and cruise in company as far as the Azores, the Cabinet seeing nothing in the present changed slate of affairs on the Continent to ren der necessary the abandonment of this pre-arranged cruise ; but a subsequent telegram from the Admiralty has postponed their departure until the 2nd of August, as the Channel fleet will not be at Gibraltar before the 14th. The Royal Oak will join in this cruise, having been tele graphed to repair at once to Malta, for the trial of some cases of drunkenness. The Defence will leave Malta as soon as s h e i s out o f dock to replace the Pirmus at Athens. In all the departments of the Royal A rsena l a t W oo l w i c h unusual activity prevails in carrying out an order from the War-office to place all the reserve stores in a state of complete efficiency. A few workmen are taken on daily, but the supply is far beyond the demand, except in the case of wheelers, a number of whom are required in the royal carriage department to take the place of the skilled artisans who have been recently sent to Canada as emi grants. In the laboratory men are employed cleaning the machinery of tde whitewash coating in which it has been covered while out of use, and th e s t eam h ammers o f the royal gun factories are kept at work night and day. At the Royal Artillery Barracks measures are being taken to complete the equipment of the 11th Field Brigade and the 13th Garrison Brigade, being the brigades first for ser vice, both of which are at present short of waggons, am bulances, and other accessories. In order to carry out the augmentation of the arms the standard has been reduced from 5 feet 8 inches to 5 feet 7 inches for men, and 5 feet 61 inches for growing lads, while artificers will be taken as low as 5 feet 5 inches. Although there is no bounty recruits are coming in The division of the Channel fleet, consisting of the Hercules, the Captain, the Minotaur, and the Monarch, all armour-plated vessels, is now at Portsmouth ready to Proceed to sea.

A very large meeting of creditors of the Norwich Crown Bank was held at Norwich on Tuesday afterneoli, Mr. T: H. Palmer, registrar of the Norwich division of the Norwich County Court, presiding. The statement of ac counts submitted by Mr. Gibbons did not differ materially from the balance sheets already published, putting aside the private estate of Sir R. Harvey. The total deficit of the bank is, in round figures, 2700,000 ; the probable dividend - will be 12s. 61 in the pound, and payment of 3s. 4d. in the pound as a first dividend is promised in six Weeks. Mr. B. C. Bailey was, appointed trustee, with a view to administration of the estate of the bankrupts, and all the preliminary measiirs taken thus far in. the matter of the bankruptcy were approved. A committee of inspection was also appointed. A letter written six years ag,o Was produced, in which Sir Robert Harvey stated that his inConie at . the time was £45,000, and his expenditure 28,000 yearly. THE GOVERNMENT AND STREET TRAMWAYS. Petitions were presented in Vice-Chancellor Mshim' Court yesterday, in the matter of Street Tramway Bills recently—introduced into Parliament, affecting- seven' different parts of the country, namely, Birmingham, Leeds, Plymouth, London, Pimlico, Peckham, and Manchester. Mr. H. M. Jackson stated that the object of the petitioners was to secure the payment out of court of the money which had been deposited as a guarantee for the parliamentary costs of the respective bills. The Manchester and Leeds Nils, although partially proceeded with, had been with drawn ; and the deposits amounted to £4,200 in the former case and 21,400 in the latter. As to the other bills, it was a matter of consideration whether they would not be sub stituted for a Government scheme; but although they had passed the House of Commons, been read a second tune in the Lords, and were unopposed, the Lord Chancellor's secretary had declined, under the circumstances to answer the petitions. The Vice-Chan cellor said an intimation should be conveyed to the proper quaiter as to the course which had been adopted under similar circumstances in the Rolls Court, and the prayer of the petitions would be accedect to, subject to the produc tion to the registrar of certificates indicating that th'i bills had either been passed or withdrawn. A GREAT WESTERN SHIP CANAL. A scheme is on foot welch is -likely to be - of great pra tical service to the West of England. Mr. Adolphus Owen, of Exeter and London, proposes to construct a ship canal between the 13iistal Channel and the mouth of the Exe, which would place the coal-fields of South Wales in direct communication with Portsmouth. The distance between Cardiff and Exmouth is now, by the ordinary sea route, 370 miles. The proposed canal would be 59 miles, reducing the sea passage to only 80. The dangers of the Land's End would be avoided, and coal would be rendered far more accessible to the metropolis itself. The projector estimates the cost of the work at £3,500,000; dimensions—length, 59 miles ' • width at surface, 124 feet ; width at bottom, 31 feet ; depth, 21 feet. The quantity of coal that would be annually passing through would be 4,261,334 tons, which at the tonnage rate of a farthing per ton per mile would produce £261,894, less 35 per cent. for working expenses and maintenance, leaving £170,236 anticipated profit. Telford designed a similar scheme some half century ago, but it was never carried out, though there is a ship canal from the Exe to Exeter. Mr. Owen's canal would run through a long, deep valley, skirting Exeter on the east and Tiverton on the west, and the whole route offers ready access to the engineer. LAW AND POLICE. THE CITY OF BOSTON. —ln the case of libel brought by Messrs. Inman, owners of the City of Boston, for a published letter, calling attention to the unseaworthiness of the ship, Mr. Justice Montague Smith has ordered a postponement beyond the 23rd, in order that the defendant --- may get evidence from Halifax. THE CASE OF THE " FETHI BULENEe' - Vice- Chancellor Malim had before him a motion on behalf of the Turkish Government to dissolve an injunction which he granted last Thursday on an cx parte application by counsel for the Thames Ironworks, &c., Company, restrain ing the agent of the Turkish Government from removing out of British waters a war vessel called Fethi Bulendi, which than company had built for the Turkish Govern ment at the price of £92,000, until the latter had paid to the former the last instalment of the purchase money, viz., £23,000. After some conversation Mr. Glasse And Mr. Waller, the counsel for the plaintiffs, consented to the dissolution of the injunction and the dismissal of the bill without costs, on payment of a cheque for £20,562 to the plaintiffs, the Turkish Consul guaranteeing the payment of any further sum which might be proved to be due to them. CUTTING A SUBMARINE CABLE. —Sir Robert Philli more has delivered judgment in the Court of Admiralty in an action brought against the owners of the ship Clara Killam for cutting the submarine cable between France and England. It appeared that when near Dover, the ship was caught in a storm, and her anchor be came entangled with the cable, which one of the sailors, at the captain's order, severed to get th e anc h or c l ear. His Lordship held that the Clara Killam was to blame for the damage done. The Elder Brethren of the Trinity House, by whom he was assisted, advised him that the anchor might have been slipped from the cable. The matter was left to the registrar to ascertain the amount of damage done. THE VICAR OP CAMBERWELL—At a recent sitting in bankruptcy in the case of the Rev. James Williams, the vicar .of Camberwell, an order was made for staying the bankruptcy proceedings which had been instituted by Mr. C. J. Dimond, solicitor, of Henrietta-street, Caven dish-square, a judgment creditor for about five hundred. pounds. That order was appealed against , and on Satur day last was revoked by the L or d Justice. Application was yesterday made to restrain the proceedings under the liquidation petition, a meeting of creditors being fixed for that day. Mr. Registrar Spring-Rice (sitting as Chief Judge), whose decision had been overruled, as stated above, granted the injunction asked for. The rev, gentle man's liabilities are stated at nearly £.20,000, including £15,000 due to the trustees under his wife's marriage settlement. The living is in sequestration. COMIC PAPERS. (From Punch,) ToucHiNo.—" Confound the war !" says Mr. Hardi), one won't be able to leave the country." <<IILEN MILITARIS.—Among milita r y news f rom Paris.: It is stated that officers have substituted stripes on their shoulders for epaulettes." Officers who rave for needless war deserve to have stripes on their shoulders of another sort than those which, substituted for their epaulettes, suggest the idea of striped hyaenas. ACT C2ESAR AUT NULLUS. —One reason fur the war has been alleged to be the fifty thousand "Noes" which in the recent plebiscite were voted by the army. Well, clearly, if the Emperor has been led by the noes, he will hardly find much favour in Europe.

(From Judy.) ODD THOUGHTS ABOUT ODD THINGS. ONE FOR HIMSELF.--The extraordinary project of treaty between France and Prussia, published by the Times, by which it was proposed that the two big Continental Powers should gobble up the little ones, has startled all Europe. It is very similar to a story we have heard before, viz., how Aaron's rod swallowed up all the other rods. ut the author of this pretty scheme, whoever he may be, must look out that his little essay in the rod business doesn't turned out rather badly for his own back. Pear Admiral W. Houston Stewart, the Admiralty Superintendent of the Dockyard, Devonport, has been summoned to attend at the Admiralty. The Lord Chancellor's rectory of Llandevaelog Fach ' Brecon, has become vacant by the d ea th o f th e Rev. Thomas Butterfell Hosken, M.A. It is worth about £4OO a year. The potato disease has exhibited itself rather ex tensively in the county of Mayo, but as the time is past when it has usually been most destructive, a hope is en tertained that it will not seriously spread. 'i he Irish police have arrested: a man named John Gregory, a gatekeeper at Colonel Forde's residence, on suspicion of being the murderer of Gallagher, the bailiff. The bag in which Gallagher carried his money, was found near the gatehouse ill which Gregory lives. He was intimate with Gallagher, and had been in his house a short time before the murder. The Marquis of Westminster has allowed the authorities of the South Kensington Museum to select for exhibition any pictures from the Grosvenor gallery for which spake can be found. Many of the finest works have been accordingly removed, and will be exhi bited in a few days. THE NEW LORD JUSTICE. —Though the patent of the new Lord Justice is in course of preparation, it is understood that it will not be submitted for her Majesty's signature till the next Privy Council, which will be early next week ; consequently the learned Lord Justice will not, it is anticipated, take his seat till next Michaelmas term. The news of the first battle caused great excite ment in London yesterday. A roaring trade all day was driven by the newsboys, who with much war enthusiasm vended each successive edition of the journals at something like double its proper cost. The first definite news of the battle—that it had ended in the capture of Saarbriick— came through a Central Press Telegram. STA )I.PED, THE AIONT CENIS RAILWAY. In the court of Vice-Chancellor Malins, yesterday, a peti tion was presented by the directors of the Mont Cenis Railway for the purpose of obtaining the sanction of the Court to a scheme for the payment of the French credi tors, so as to prevent the collapse of the undertaking being brought about by the difficulties of its present financial position. Mr. Pearson, Q.C., stated that the railway was at present in operation, but the profit which it realised during the summer months was more than counterbalanced by it 4 losses in the winter. There were creditors in France, who, having; supplied materials for the construction of the line by the law of that country had a charge upon all the French property. Those creditors had commenced legal proceedings in France, and if they seized the property they would practi cally deStroy all hope of success. In order to avert that calamity an arrangement had been made by which the profits of the company were to be carried entirely to the account of the bankers, one moiety to go to the . French creditors, and the other moiety to the company. To- avoid further loss it was in tended to continue the service durin g the winter by means of sledges, which they had a right to do without incurring penalties by giving proper notice to the French and Italian Governments. The teajorik of the shareholders -- andbOndholiters—gli - Sli as well as foreign—Were repre sented by Mr. Winterbotha.rn, and agreed with the peti tion. Mr. Glasse, QC., and other learned counsel ap peared for various parties beneficially interested, and there being no opposition, the Vice-Chancellor sanctioned the schetue, ~i.i;:f1~ 1 \VA - : AC( 1)E NT AT CUPAIi, .ent, :o< &.ready briefl reported, t at Newmill- ' between and iDairsie t.tiltati,Yn4 on. the North to a :teeial train, bound from S.

On Wtaluesday afternoon Mr. Humphreys resumed, at; the Halifax Arms Tavern, •.INI the inquest on Joseph Lipman, aged 14 years, who is alleged to have died from the effects (If starvation and neglect. The de ceased was the son of a traveller, who on going to Australia, placed him in the charge of his uncle and aunt. His uncle was a fish salesman, living at No. 11, Boar's Head-yard, Whitechapel. Police-constable Smith, 52 H., deposed that, in consequence of information he re ceived, he went on Sunday week to the house. In a cor ner of the room he saw a boy covered with old rags. His bones were coining through the skin, and he was in a very filthy state. He could neither speak, hear, nor walk. Witness called a doctor in. Dr. James Scatt Sequera deposed that when he saw the boy in the state described by th, constable; witness asked Mrs. Lipman, the aunt, why she had the boy in that state, and she replied, " I have clone the best I could for it." Wit ness told her that she ought to have provided the child with proper food, and she replied "It would be no use, for he could not eat it." Dr. G. B. Phillips, police surgeon, deposed that the body, which was much emaciated ; was encrusted with dirt from want of wash ing,.and weighed 151 lb. The boy died on the following Wednesday. A post-mortem examination of the body proved that the stomach of the deceased was empty. I'he intestines were transparent from want of food. The jury returned a verdict of " Manslaughter" against Elia.s Lipman and Esther Lipman, his wife, for killing and slaying, by starvation and neglect, their nephew, Joseph Lipman, and they recommended the police to indict Elias Lipman for perjury, and they cen sured Mr. Richards, the surgeon, for granting a cer tificate of death in such_ a case.' When Mr. Lipman was being removed to Newgate, his wife being already there by a magistrate's remand, he was followed by acrowd of over a thousand persons, who kept shouting, "Down with the murderer. Who starved the boy to death ?" The police had great difficulty in preventing him being injured ny the iufu..iated mob. ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGArrA.

ORANGE SYMPATHY WITH PRUSSIA.—As a set-off to the Roman Catholic expressions of sympathy with France, the Orangemen of Enniskillen held a meeting in the town on Tuesday evening, condemning that Power and extolling Prussia. A hope was expressed that Eng land would not allow France to behave dishonourably with regard to Belgium. A resolution was passed to hold a mass meeting at Dromard on the 12th inst., to express srmpathy with Prussia. NATIONAL ARTILLERY ASSOCIATION.—The pre sent aspect of affairs on the Continent will probably pro duce an alteration in the programme of the movements of the National Artillery Association at Shoeburyness this year. It was calculated that fifty-nine artillery volunteer corps would send to the camp about 105 detachments, comprising some 1,000 men ; but it is said to be now pro bable that some relaxation in the rules of the association with respect to the dates of entries will be made. It is even said that at the time of the meeting, which is fixed to commence on Monday, the 15th inst., and terminate with the distribution of prizes on the following Saturday, should be extended to a fortnight. THE SCOTCH MOORS.—The moors in Lanark shire give every promise of fair sport during the present month. From various districts, ranging from Dolphinton to Strat haven, we hear that there are generally from six to eight young grouse in every covey, and that by the 12th current the majority will be strong on the wing. Some fears are entertained that the birds will suffer from the late drought and intense heat, but veteran keepers do not share these apprehensions. Sportsmen are rapidly preparing for the moors, the advertised ground is nearly all let, and there are apparently to be a number of new tenants this season. —2Vert4 British Mail.

He was committed for trial at the assizes for attempting to murder. Janet Lockie, his sweetheart, was sent for trial for feloniously receiving the watch and chain. THE HEREFORD BANK EMBEZZLEMENT.—The trial of Richard Greenhow, and Foster James Bellamy, for embezzling sums of £3,657155. 2d., and £964 19s. 11d., the property of the Hereford Branch of the W e st of England and South Wales District Banking Company, took place on Wednesday. The grand jury, in the course of the afternoon, having found a true bill against the pri soners, they were called upon to plead, and pleaded " guilty." They appeared much depressed by the dis graceful position in which they were placed. The counsel in the case were engaged in the other court, and, as they had 5,,..ie remarks to offer to the court in mitigation of punishment, sentence was deferred.
