THE CHILD'S BEST GIFT. THE TOY ALPHABET, beautifully printed on tinted Cards in Case, complete; forming a moat amusing and in btructive present for Children. The elegant style in which the illustrations to each letter are got up—each with a pleasing and simple rhyme—and the strikingly apparent usefulness and novelty of the plan, which is so elegantly carried out, have pro duced the most unqualified encomiums from some of the most influential organs of public op:nion, a few of which are appended. Parents and others desirous of pleasing their children, and at the same time helping them to take the first step to learning, cannot do better than purchase a Set of these Alpha bets, which are produced in Six varieties, at One Shilling per Set. "'THE TOY ALPHABET' supplies an easy and entertaining mode of teaching little ones their letters, and serves as a plaything at the same time that it takes the place of a lesson book. All aunts and uncles, as well as parents, should not fail to get a sight of the Toy Alphabet, for it is sure to be the delight of every nursery into which it may find its way.' —The Christian World. "The eye is riveted and the memory irresistibly impressed. The scheme has met with great success, and any loving parent, having a use for such a welcome teacher in the family, cannot complain when the entire cost of the packet is only One Shilling."—The Primitive Methodist Advocate. " Tl.e colour-printing is admirable, and the variety and origi nality of the cards, which are produced in several distinct sets, cannot fail to make them popular."—The Methodist Recorder.

The large and valuable range of Silver Mines which this com p—any is formed to work is situated in the same rich district, and in close proximity to the profitable Mines of the celebrated Real del Monte Company,, which, since its establishment in 1849, has yielded Dividends to the Shareholders amounting to nearly £3,000,000 sterling. The grant contains a great number of argentiferous veins. Fifteen are already known, and have been opened ot, and it will be seen from the numerous assays given herewith that those which are being worked yield very rich silver ores. In addition to these fifteen lodes, it is well knnwn, as stat ed in the reports herewith, that the great veins "Aguachote" and " Carretera ", run through and form a juction in this company's rights, which is a most important feature, as "the Carratera lode has been, and is, one of the most productive in the district, and yields the Real del Monte Company 280 tons of silver ore weekly." .The above advantages are so great that these Mines would have been developed long ago but for the difficulties and cost of drainage, without which they could not, be wrought deeper. No drainage, however, appears to be now required, for it will be seen from the concurrent testimony of Mr. Potts, Mr. Hemp 'shire, and Captain Grose (see their reports) that the shafts which could not formerly be sunk deeper, in consequence of the abun dance of water, have all become dry since the completion ch of the gr eat gr eat Aviadero edit of the Real del Monte Company, whi accomplished towards the close of 1868. Several of the setts have been already opened to a considerable extent, and proved to be productive, by which both time and outlay will be saved. Nine samples of ore, extracted by Captain Grose from various points of the Encarnacion Mine, were assayed and gave an average of £49 12s. lid. per ton. -Five samples taken by Captain Grose from the bottom of the shaft in the San Francisco Mine produced £25 4s. ld. per ton. The following four samples were taken and brought home by Captain Abraham, late manager of the Rosario Mine, and were assayed by Mr. Griffith, Assayer to the Bank of England : No. 1. From shaft on the Aguachote lode, containing 22540 z. of silver, and 2oz. 20grs. of gold per ton of ore. No. 2. From shaft on the San Francisco lode, 1,8780 z. of silver, and 21oz. ldwt. 9grs. of gold per ton of ore. No. 3. From E and W vein 4ioz. of silver. No. 4. From adit driving to cut the Aguachote lode, 81oz. of silver, and Bdwt. 4grs• of gold per ton of ore. Six samples were taken from a new discovery in the Rosario adit, which were assayed by Mr. Gould, and gave an average of £56 4s. Bd. per ton. Details of all the above assays can be seen at the offices of the Company. N.B.—Ore only yielding £6 9s. per ton pays all expenses, with small margin of profit. The result of these numerous assays of ores taken from so many parts of the mines, and giving an average value of £45105. per ton of ore, cannot but be considered as highly satis factory, more especially as the average produce of the 525,978 tons of ore, reduced by the Real del Monte Company up to 1865, was only £l3 4s. per ton, from which, notwithstanding the great costineurred by that company for drainage, a profit of £2,411,500 to that period was made. An official statement of the produce of the Real del Monte Company's Mines, from 1855 to 1864 (forming a total value for those ten years of £6 409,057) as given in a report to the Earl of Clarendon, by Mr. Middleton, then H. M. Secre tary of Legation in Mexico, dated July 10th, 1866, and pub lished by' order of Parliament, will be found amongst the zeports.

BARRY On Friday evening the ex-Chief Commissioner of Works will probably ask the House of Commons to censure the apparently unjust treatment which Mr. Barry, the late architect of the Houses of Parliament, has received at the hands of the present Commissioner, Mr.Ayrton. In 1840 the Houses of Parliament at Westminster were built under the superintendence of Sir Charles Barry, who continued as Architect of the Buildings until 1860, when his son was appointed to the office. Mr. Barry was still the architect until the 23rd of last January, when he was suddenly asked to relinquish his post, and to hand over his father's drawings (which he himself regarded as a sacred trust) and his own to the officers of the Department of Works. Mr. Barry's letters to Mr. Ayrton since he received the latter's direction to cease as architect have been marked by a courtesy and defe rence, which appear to have been lost on the Commis sioner, who strenuously adhered to his determination to have Mr. Barry's drawings taken out of his pos session, intimating that he would not ‘f enter into any question respecting Mr, Barry's future employ ment until he had complied with the requisition to give up all the plans" relating to the Houses of Parliament." To one important letter of Mr. Barry's the member for the Tower Hamlets vouchsafed no reply, and finally the latter threatened legal proceedings if the plans were not unconditional!) surrendered. The whole matter has created no small indignation among Mr. Barry's numerous friends, and the Council of the Royal Institution of British Architects have so far sympathised with him in the matter as to pass a resolution declaring that by use and custom all the papers of an architect remain his sole pro perty. Of course Mr. Ayrton's reasons for the steps he has taken as yet are not known, and there fore the question must be left unjudged, but it is the general impression that Mr. Barry's maintenance in the position, the duties of which are now in the hands of Captain Galion, would have considerably served the public interest. It is also considered that whether right or wrong in his resolu tion, Mr. Ayrton has been very severe upon a gentle man whose services have been of an efficient and satisfactory character for a period of ten years. Mr. Ayrton's vindication of his conduct is awaited with deep interest by the public, and by a large number of Mr. Barry's colleagues in his profession. THE CHURCH IN WALES. The motion relative to the disestablishment of the Church in Wales is expected to come on on the Nth instant. It is only a motion on a private mem b er s' night, and nobody . in parliamen tary circles imagines that it will cause the slightest embarrassment to Mr. Gladstone or th e Go vernment. The object of Mr. Watltin Willi ams th e m over is only, it is understood, to ventilate the question. THE NORWICH ELECTION INQUIRY. Mr. Tillett has energetically begun a canvas at Norwich by addressing the Liberal electors, and ex plaining to them the appointment o f th e late com mission and the disclosures before it. He was b 0 far successful that the " bold and uncompromising manner in which he fought the battle of the people at the last election, and subsequently exposed the nefarious means by which he was defeated" formed the theme of a resolution passed unanimously in his favour. When the meeting terminated, a mob began stone throwing and a disorderly scene at one time appeared imminent. The disturbances, however, did not result in any way seriously. PRACTICAL 44 JOKING." Lord St. Leonards has for some time past suffered annoyance from a system of practical joking in the shape of persons ordering goods, which are sent to his house, and have then to be disowned by him The Globe announced that the perpetrators of these senseless deceptions had been discovered; they were • two of his lordship's _servants. Unfortunately the news proves .too good to be true. The "jokers " have not been traced, and the discreditable folly is still continued. More letters from de luded tradesmen continue to pour in upon Lord-St. 'Leonards. One is from Messrs. Hedges and Butler, inquiring the price, &c., his lordship proposes far, the;, , ports, sherries, and clarets of which he has ordered' samples; another letter is from " Fowler, of Bushey, Glasgow, to Sugden," by telegram, stating that the heifer and bull shall be sent on Friday morning. The loss and trouble involved to tradesmen are enormous. The following . extract from a letter written by the persecuted peer speaks for itself :—" I will now state the first forgery, and nearly one of the last. One of my daughters was on a visit to Torquay, and just as she was preparing • for dinner she received a telegram in the name of in v, butler, stating how seriously ill I was, and that I wished her to come home immediately, which she did, travelling all night, and reaching my bedroom at half-past seven in the morning, expecting to see me dying. The. other forgery was an immediate order for fine marbles, describing the quality, and -.40! the length and breadth of the proposed slabs, and thaluseription, copied fm resent tombstones, which were to replace the present erection over my late wife's tomb." THE INFALLIBILITY OF LAW. A case strikingly illustrative of the vicissitudes of men who embroil themselves in the meshes of the law, is described by " A Barrister " in the columns of a contemporary. He says : "Three years ago I was counsel •for the plaintiff in an action for false im prisonment brought by a poor man against a rich man, a magistrate and a barrister. The plaintiff had a Verdict for £lOO. The defendant moved for a new trial; rule refused. He appealed to the Exchequer Chamber; judgment for the plaintiff. The defendant then took the case to the House of Lords, and on Monday last the decisions of the Exchequer Chamber, the Court of Exchequer, and the Lord Chief Baron, . who tried the cause, were overruled by the Lord Chancellor, two ex-Chancellors, and a Scotch judge. The -costs are enormous." The writer justly adds, "the question arises, How would it have been had the defendant been a poor man ?" He would, undoubtedly, have had to rest satisfied with the first verdict given against him. MR. CHISHOLM ANSTEY IN INDIA. Mr. Chisholm Anstey, of Bridgwater celebrity, has been gathering fresh laurels in litigation on the other side of the Pacific. It seems from the Bombay papers that while arguing in a case at the Criminal Sessions he became involved in a series of altercations, first with his forensic adversary and then with the judge. Opposing counsel ara privi leged to wage deadly war upon each other, but when the judicial authority gets involved in the affray, matters become more serious, and Mr. Chisholm Anstey found himself committed for contempt of court, having refused to sit down when directed. But as the committal was only verbal, and the too pugnacious barrister was not bodily removed from the court, he put himself beside the sheriff, and asked to be arrested. The Sheriff refused to do anything of the kind, and when the hearing was over, Mr. Anstey was told he was discharged. He was not, however, inclined to forget his wrongs, .and hurried from the Court declar ing the matter should not end there. Matters with which Mr. Anstey is connected seldom do end either quickly or quietly. THE MURDERS IN GREECE. Mr. Alexander Baillie Cochrane, an ex-M.P., ex presses some opinions in the Morning Post on the recent deplorable events which have occurred in Greece. As a creation of our own, we are morally and financially interested in the welfare of Greece. If the suggestion that the northern provinces should be occupied by a strong military force were carried, out, it could only result, he says, in the entire Tcitgir - vf - oh. incLaportaorkoo of A- - of the sum which the military occupation of the country would cost would cut toads through the most difficult parts of Greece, and the income of the country properly administered is ample to meet all the expen diture. In three or four years, roads carried to the frontier would, do more than any armed force to put a stop to brigandage, and a small detach ment of troops furnished by each of the Powers might protect the men employed in their construc tion. BLACK FRIDAY. Yesterday was a memorable anniversary in the City of London. On the eleventh of May, 1866, the suspension of the great discount house of Overend and Gurney was announced, and a day of panic and confusion resulted almost unparal leled in commercial annals. An excited crowd kept possession of Lombard 7 street, and gathered round the doors of the " Corner Rouse." The panic spread far and wide, and valuable securities were offered for nominal sums. One great failure followed another, and the intervention of the Government and the suspension of the Bank Charter Act were necessary before the tumult could be allayed. Even then the mischief was not at an end. Its effects spread from class to class, and it may fairly be said that the national credit awl confiden% have hardly yet recovered from the shock. Happily, as the last Budget chews, trade is now reviving, and Black Friday, we may hope, will soon be only a memory. THE LATE SIR JAMES SIMPSON. It is stated by a writer in the Times that Sir James Simpson was not the first to apply ether as an anaesthetic, although the use of chloroform in Eng land was undoubtedly due to him. The honour of applying ether is claimed for Pr. Morton, an obscure dentist, who in 1846 resided in Boston, United States. It is also said that Dr. Simpson, when first propounding his theory as to the use of chloroform in surgical cases, was opposed by a set of Calvinists, who thought that checking the sensations of pain in connection with " visitations of God," was to contravene the decrees of an all-wise Creator. The prejudices of these objectors were, however, perfectly overthrown by Sir James Simpson's argu ment that God during the extraction of a rib from. Adam's body necessarily adopted a somewhat cJr responding artifice by throwing him into a " deep sleep." THE LAST OF A CITY CHURCH. The Church of All Hallows, after five centuries and a half of ecclesiastical life, went out of existence on Tuesday afternoon. The building is situated be tween 7 and 9, Mincing-lane. Warehouses, counting houses, and shops have hemmed it in on every side, and you have to pursue your way down a narrow court, which apparently leads nowhere, before the church can be seen. For years past its congregations have been limited to a dozen, and on the death of its last rector, an eminent antiquarian, it was determined not to fill up his place. The pastoral letter of the Bishop of London announced that the parish of Allhallows Staining would be henceforth united with that of St. Olave, Hart-street, and that the building would be pulled down. The last service was held on Tuesday, when the officiating clergyman gave an address to a larger congregation than had assembled there for years past. The church has now passed into the ownership of the clothworkers, who have promised to keep its site an open space. A THIEVES ' TEA PARTY Ned Wright, the converted burglar, has visited Manchester, and attended a thieves' tea party. There were about 120 men and women present pro fessing to be convicted thieves, at least twenty who had accepted tickets having gone to Chester Races in pursuit of questionable objects. The suc cess of the meetings in London has been attributed to the admission being rigorously restricted to thieves, a plan departed from on the present occasion. The effect of this was that, to use Ned Wright's own words, "the meeting was too respectable to hope for much good." Ned Wright delivered a practical address, and at once suppressed by his earnest manner several attempts which were at first made by some of the elder thieves to laugh him out of countenance. It is intended to establish a thieves home at Manchester on the plan adopted by Ned Wright in London,
