IRELAND. DUBLIN, Jan. 4. The adjourned inquest on the body of William O'Brien, who was killed at Dungarvan •on Satur day, was to have been resumed on Wednesday, but it has been adjourned again till next Monday, in order that counsel may attend on the part of the military. Mr. Hunt, solicitor, applied for the ad journment on behalf of Captain Morgan, who was present, and who had received a letter from the commander of the forces asking that he might have an opportunity of sending counsel to watch the pro ceedings. No inconvenience, Mr. Hunt said, could arise from the adjournment, as the body had been viewed, identified, and buried. Captain Morgan then read a letter from Colonel Curzon, Military Secretary, Royal Hospital, dated the Ist of Jan., r,nuesting him to put himself in communication vial the solicitor going to Dungarvan, and instruct him to require a postponement of the inquiry till counsel should be engaged. A similar communica tion had been received by him from Cork by spe cial messenger. He therefore asked to have the inquest postponed until Monday next, by which time he expected Government would be able to have their counsel present. Captain Barry, the resident magistrate, supported the application, stating that he had communicated with the Chief Secretary on the subject, and also with Captain Sawyers, the officer commanding the troops there, who unfortunately was absent on leave, who might wish to attend the inquest, and that was another reason for the postponement. Captain Morgan said three legal gentlemen in Cork had been applied to by the military authori ties, and none of them had been able to attend. Mr. Hudson (who appeared for the next of kin) slid he had no hesitation in consenting to the ad journment. The inquest was then adjourned till 11 o'clock on Monday next, and the inquiry is likely to prove a very protracted one. In the course of the day a jury of 18 was sworn, preparatory to the approaching inquest, and pro ceeded to view the body of the late Captain Kelly, who died on Wednesday morning from secondary hemorrhage from the wound in the lung. There is a great deal of popular indignation at Dungarvan arising from these deaths, which is at once the cause and the effect of exciting rumours such as those which a Dungarvan correspondent has sent to the Cork Examiner. It is said that the order given to the Lancers to charge the people proceeded from a person in authority remarkable for his ardent Toryism, and that it was conveyed in the words, " Trample on the devils." It is further stated that after the polling had concluded, "In the presence of several respectable residents of Dungarvan, in a public room, this officer repeated the gross calumny which had been in circulation against the newly elected member for Waterford, speaking of that gen tleman as a' -- Fenian.' The use of this lan-. guage is understood to have led to the immediate commencement of an action for slander against the person uttering it. This, however, appears to have been the least violent of the officer's acts on the oc casion. He is represented as having uttered a gross tirade against the Papists, and when a gentleman present told him plainly what he thought of his con duct, he rushed off for a revolver to ' shoot all the Papists.' He was actually returning to the room with a seven-chamber revolver, loaded and capped, in his hand, when his progress was stopped, and the dire consequences which might have fol lowed were prevented." The reporter of these sayings does not vouch for their accuracy. But the fact that such rumours are in circulation and are doing mischief is worthy of notice. The death of one of the Lancers is also an nounced. The military and constabulary draughted into Waterford city for the election have returned to their quarters, Complaints are made of the bad accommodation provided there for the constabulary who were quartered in an unoccupied house, where they had to lie on damp straw while the wind whistled through unglazed windows. A correspondent writes to the Daily Express:— " That Captain Talbot's committee are actively en gaged in collecting evidence respecting the disgrace ful intimidation practised by the priest-organised ruffian mobs; and that a mass of evidence is now collected that would coerce the most hostile Parlia mentary committee to declare the election null and void." Atßelfast on Wednesday Head Constable Jaques, accompanied by Constable Fury and Messrs. En right, Thomson, Canty, and Clinghan, proceeded to the house of Michael Donaghy, Hamill-street (one of the men arrested on Monday), for the pur pose of searching for arms. On raising the hearth stone they found, about one foot and a half in the ground, five rifles, to which were affixed bayonets. The rifles are of the military pattern and of a supe rior make. The arms were conveyed to the Police office. Acting-Constable Enrigl4 next searched the house of John Lettson, 22, English-street, who was arrested on Monday night. The search re sulted in a large number of revolver cartridges being found. The ceiling of the garret of this house was broken. which led to the belief that since the search was made on Monday night either arms or docu ments were removed from the premises. A man named Johnston was brought up there at the police-court, charged with proclaiming himself a Fenian. He was remanded. The six passengers from Liverpool by the Iron Duke steamer, who were arrested on Tuesday morn ing by the police on suspicion, have been all liber ated, the information obtained upon due inquiry having turned out satisfactory. The troops in the Royal Barracks were paraded on Wednesday for the purpose of seeing the sentence ou Lance-corporal Devlin, of the 63d Regiment, carried into effect. The prisoner, it appears, when on furlough near Belfast a few weeks ago made use of some seditious language in a publichouse while under the influence of drink. Information was given to the police, Rho conveyed him to Dublin, where he was tried by court-martial during the past month, and found guilty. Brigadier-Gen. Cunyng hame, C. 8., was present to hear the sentence read. The Scots Greys were drawn up on the right, the Artillery on the left, and the 85th facing the-south. The prisoner was then brought into the square, and Col. Gordon read the sentence, by which Devlin is to receive 672 days' imprisonment with hard labour. After the judgment of the Court was read the pri soner was taken away and the troops dismissed. To give an idea of the frost which has prevailed, since the Ist of the month, the Freeman's Journa mentions that at noon yesterday the Liffey was com pletely frozen over at Essex's-bridge, and at the fall of the tide great slabs of ice were borne down the stream. The rising. generation are enjoying the skating and sliding with the greatest enthusiasm in Phcenix-park and wherever ice is to be found about the city. The half -yearly meeting of the Mining Company of Ireland was held yesterday, Mr. F. Codd in the chair. The report showed a net profit from the ope rations of the half-year of £5,657. The directors re commended a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum. The chairman, after fully detailing the ope rations of the several mines, moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Mr. T. Bewly, and passed unanimously. Mr. E. Fox moved a vote of thanks to the chairman, and indignantly repelled certain calumnious attacks on the company made by gambling speculators. The motion was seconded by Alderman Reynolds and passed unanimously. METROPOLITAN BENEFIT SOCIETIES' ASYLE3L— The annual treat to the inmates of this institution, in the Ball's Pond-road, was given on Wednesday last, Mr. J. 'l'. Slater presiding. Spito of the snowstorm many visitors attended, and good old English fare was abundantly pro vided.

In this matter the public may be its own physician. Holloway's Pills may be purchased at a trifling cost; instructions for taking thorn will be furnished with the Pills, and a little attention, with a few restrictions, will enable persons to keep themselves in health under very trying circumstances. These Pills act as alteratives, tonics, and aperients. Hol loway's Medicine should find a place in every house and home, where it should be ready for instant administration ychen the slightest symptom gives warning of approaching indisposition. THE WEATHER. The keen frost continues in London, but no more snow has fallen. The thermometer on Thursday night sank to 5 deg. It stood at 6 deg. yesterday morning at 8 o'clock, and at noon it bad only risen in the heart of London to 5 degrees. For many years no cold so intense has been experienced in England. The streets remain encumbered with snow, and the traffic is still much impeded. The London Omnibus Company yesterday sent out only 50 con veyances, instead of the usual number, which is 620. The consequence of the withdrawal of the omnibuses has been to increase the number of passengers on the metropolitan lines, on all of which additional car riages have been added to the trains. The pavement, on which the snow has been trodden into slippery ice is more dangerous than ever. A few efforts have been made to remove the heaps of snow piled up in the streets, more especially in the Strand and a few other of the leading thoroughfares ; but much still remains to be done. At Hyde Park-corner, in Ox ford-street, and in most of the suburban districts, the steps taken to remove the drifts and heaps have been ridiculously inadequate. Yesterday a few sledges made their appearance in the streets. One consisted of the body of a phaeton placed on two upright boards a foot in height and two inches broad. Another was a regular sledge with bronze neck, and decorated with ribbons. The ease with which they passed over the snow was in painful contrast with the slow progress of the wheeled carriages. The ice on the waters in the Parks is not so strong as might have been anticipated from the intensity of the frost. Yesterday, on the exposed portions of the Serpentine and the eastern and western ends of the ornamental waters in St. James's-park, the ice was weak and dangerous. At an early hour yester day morning large numbers of the lovers of skating and sliding wended their way to the Parks, and for some time the sport went on without accident. As the day advanced, however, and the numbers of people increased, the ice became generally unsafe, and several immersions took place, though without any fatal termination. In the Regent's-park there were fully 3,000 persons on the ice at one time, and the members of the Skating Club mustered in great force. The ice, in many parts of the Round Pond was very unsafe, and several of the boldest skaters paid the penalty of immersion for their temerity. The banks of the Serpentine, and the water in Kensington-gardens were crowded, and on the latter water there was a large number of skaters. The skating Club had erected one of its spacious tents in the gardens, and one of the tents of the Royal Humane Society was placed on the bank with all the necessary apparatus for preserving life and rescuing those who might fall in. The ice on the Serpentine was extremely dangerous, as it invariably is for the first few days of a frost, and the police, the Park keepers, and the Humane Society were fully occupied in preventing numbers of foolhardy young men and boys from gettingon to it. In many cases where parties evaded the vigilance of the keepers, they were rewarded with a good ducking. There was a report that a loss of life had taken place in the afternoon, but it was not confirmed on inquiry at the receiving-house in Hyde-park. At this estab lishment every appliance was kept in readiness to succour those suffering from immersion or to restore those apparently drowned, and a staff of medical men were in attendance during the day. The en closure in St. James's Park was thronged with people during the day, and in the forenoon the ice on the ornamental water was crowded by men and boyu. As was to be expected the immersions were numerous, upwards of 40 having fallen in, but, owing to the shallowness of the water, not averag ing more than 3ft. in depth, and in no place more than 4ft., they were got out without much difficulty. It being known there was little, if any, danger to those who fell in, as each one underwent his cold bath, it afforded considerable amusement to the nu merous spectators. Between 3 and 4 o'clock a thick and cold fog spread itself over the parks, which had the effect of clearing away not only the spectators, but all, even the most ardent lovers of the sport on the ice. The works on the Thames Embankment, the new Blackfriars-bridge, and similar undertakings, are almost suspended, while the masons and bricklayers employed at the new Foreign-offices and other large buildings in the metropolis, have been compelled to give up work altogether. It is computed that the weather has thrown out of employment at least 5,000 operatives in the building trades alone. At Liverpool, since Monday night, there has been a continuous frost, with occasional slight falls of snow. Yesterday a dense fogpassed over the town, and in the afternoon the cotton. brokers complained of the difficulty in judging samples. The streets are in a very dangerous state. WILLS AND BEQUESTS.

The following important information has been issued in Paris : SPECIAL JURY FOR THE NEW CLASS OF REWARDS. The regulation of the 7th of June, 1866, approved by the Imperial decree, dated the 9th of the same month, established a distinct class of rewards, " in favour of individuals, establishments, or localities which, by an organisation or by institutions of a special character, have developed a spirit of mutual goodwill among all persons co-operating in the same work, and have assured the material, moral, and intellectual welfare of the workmen." In accordance with the terms of Article 35 the international jury specially appointed to judge of this order of merit, held its first meeting at the Pa lais de l'lndustrie on Ist December, 1866, under the presidency of the Minister of State, Vice-Presi dent of the Imperial Commission. More than 200 claims received by the Commissaire General or by foreign commissioners were submitted to the jury. New and important applications having been an nounced by several members, the jury decided to postpone the last day for the delivery of claims and statements of particulars to the Commissariat General until the 31st of January, 1867, instead of the Ist of December, 1866, the date previously appointed. Foreign claims must be transmitted to the Com missariat General through the medium of the com missions appointed by each Government, and of their representatives on the special jury. On this occasion it was considered desirable that the programme of the competition should be more detailed, the Imperial commission having merely indicated its object in very general terms. In the first place, the following principles were adopted : Ist. The jury may doubtless take into account, among the facts presented for its consideration, the spirit of charity and beneficence; but it is not specially charged to reward acts of that character. 2d. To constitute them the basis of a claim to re ward, the facts adduced must have been the conse quence of a free and spontaneous initiative, and not of legislative enactments. 3d. It will not suffice that the work be praise worthy in itself; it must at the same time be com patible with sust a i ne d an d progressive prosperity. 4th. The circumstances of the position in which competitors may be found should be duly considered. To have maiutained intact traditional circumstances of harmony and happiness, whilst progressing in agricultural or industrial pursuits, is a good ground of claim ; but the introduction of improvements where antagonism and suffering previously existed is not less meritorious. The jury considers it desirable, with a view to obtaining complete information, and as an element for consideration in making its awards, that the de mands should be accompanied by historical and statistical summaries, and by a statement of every circumstance which may serve to characterise the origin, development, and prosperity of the under takings. As regards the double object of the competition, the state of harmony and the state of well-being, candidates are at full liberty to select for them. selves the best means of showing that they bare at tained or approximated to this object. The following may be instanced as symptoms of the existenee of a spirit of harmony :—Loug con tinuance of co-operation, permanence o f satisfac tory relations, absence ofirritating disc uss i ons on the subject of wages. may Among the symptoms of the exi s t ence of happi ness b 3 mentioned savings bank deposits of proportionably considerable amo un t , ownership or r p u e r r a m l a o n u e t n - t pr p e o m ss is es e s s io ( n dep o ed of house, with or with ou t rurales), combina tion of agricultural with manufacturing pursuits, subventions, practices, and institutions generally adapted to render the position of the workman more stable and to provide for exceptional cases. The following points will not be less worthy of consideration .—Habits of life which admit of the mothers of families remaining at home, and mea rPealyraativeen to wages likely mea sures taken to protect young girls, tby h the the p conditions iece, of whose employment n ecess i tate their leaving and any y sy o s t t h em er s a o r f ra p n r g em em m e m ut s s , to improve the quality of the work and to stimulate the workman's energy and spirit of initiative ; relief funds, asylums, participation in life assurances ; practices and institutions of all kinds which tend to improve the material condition of the workpeople, and to secure for them a provision in case of future need; schools and other institutions for the promo tion of morality and intelligence. In fine, it will be well to mention whatever efforts have been made to repress or to prevent the spread of vicious habits. The jury has not thought it right to exclude from the competition individuals or societies which, although not engaged in agriculture or manufactur ing pursuits, have founded durable and prosperous institutions, contrib u ti ng to the propagation of good feeling and h a p p i ness, of which it is desirable to seek the best ex amples. Having completed the programme of the compe tition, the jury proceeded to adopt the following regulations respecting the method of examining claims, the arrangement of the candidatures, and the assignment of the rewards :- 1. A jury of the same nationality as the claimant, or one representing that nationality, will make the first examination of the claim. This jury will see that the statements of particulars are as complete as possible, and will address the papers, together with its opinion (avis) of the claim, to the Commissariat 1867. General, before the 31st of January, 2. A commission, consisting of all members of the jury present in Paris, will sit from day to day for it will appoi n t f or the purpose of i nvestigating claims. If necessary each case to be examined a second jury, th e members of which will be of nationalities othe r th an t h at o f th e p erson whoseclaim may be i n question. Acting on the reports of the examin a ti ons the jury will prepare a cla.ss-list of the candid a t ures admitted to competition. 3. A commit tee of seven members, nominated by the president, will sit from the 15th to the 31st March, 1867, for the purpose of summing up the work of examination and inquiry. It will draw up a list of sixty candidatures, arranged in order of merit, none bei ng b racketed equal, an d will, appoint reporting members charged with the duty of sup porting its propositions before the jury. 4. In its second session, from the 14th of April to the 15th of May, the jury will deliberate upon the class list presented by the committee, at the same time reserving to itself until the Est 4oment the right of giving a place to claims which the com mittee may have eliminated. The result of the dis cussions held on each successive candidature will be stated in a class list definitively settled. 5. Finally, the jury will determine, in accordance with this last-mentioned list, the distribution and assignment of the prizes and honourable mentions. A concluding observation may be added to the preceding instructions, which answer the numerous inquiries of claimants respecting the terms of the competition. It is necessary to obviate the effect of those feel ings of extreme reserve which have hitherto pre vented the presentation of many applications. The jury would, therefore, remark that the initiative of claims is not restricted to competitors alone, and it invites competent persons to bring under its obser vation meritorious cases which appear especially deserving of examination. The study of the documents already addressed to it has enabled the jury to appreciate the utility of this new competition, and it considers that by pointing out eximples of well-being and social har mony those to whom the present appeal is directed will render a service of public benefit.

A distinct order of reward is instituted in favour of the persons, the establishments, or locali ties which, by a special organisation, or special in stitutions, have developed a spirit of harmony among all those co-operating in the same work, and have provided for the material, moral, and intellectual well-being of the workmen. These rewards consist of ten prizes, of the total value of 100,000 f. (.£4,000), and 20 honourable mentions ; • One grand prize of 100,000 f. may, in addition, be awarded to the person, establishment, or locality, distinguished under this head by a very exceptional superiority. Art. 31. A special jury will judge of the merit specified for this order of reward, and will determine the amount of prizes and the form in which they will be awarded. One of the vice-presidents of the Imperial Com mission will act as president of this jury. Th e total number of members, including the' president, is fixed at 25. The number of members which the different countries will contribute to this jury is shown in a table. The secretary of the Imperial Commission act as its secretary. Art. 32.

ANOTHER REFORM DEMONSTRATION.—Arrange ments are in progress for another gigantic Reform Demon stration in London. It is to take place on the 11th of February, the Monday after the assembling of Parliament, and in connection with it there is to be a visit to the House of Commons for the purpose of presenting petitions. The proposed visit will be a rather peculiar one. Every re former who feels so disposed is to sign a petition on his own behalf, praying the House of Commons to adopt a measure of reform on the principle of residential and regis tered manhood suffrage. Every man is to take down to Parliament his own petition, and as many thousands of men aro said to be likely to adopt the course suggested, lines of route have been laid down so that confusion may be avoided. On the steps of St. Stephen's Chapel several members of Parliament who are attached to the advanced reform movement are to bo stationed to receive the peti tions as the men bring them up, and to present them to the House of Commons. These petitions, from all parts of the country, if they should flow in as the leaders of the movement affect to believe, will take a lor.g time to receive, and still longer to present to the house, where certain pre scribed forms must bo gone through by the members who have charge of VIM. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN. The following interesting statement has just been issued with regard to the Atlantic and Great Western Railway : TO THE BOND, DEBENTURE, AND SHAREHOLDERS OF THE ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN RAIL- WAY. The persistent misrepresentations regarding the Atlantic and Great Western Railway compel me, without further delay, to give a frank explanation of its position. Under ordinary circumstances this explanation would have been deferred until the publication of the annual report with audited ac counts. The construction of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway was commenced in May, 1860, and 507 miles were completed and in operation in May, 1865. About 200 locomotives and upwards of 3,000 carriages and waggons were constructed. Hotels, stations, and workshops, equal to the re quirements of a great leading company, were erected —in short, nothing was left undone to complete and thoroughly equip the Atlantic and Great West ern Railway, even amidst the distractions of a great civil war, during which, of all similar works in the United States, this enterprise alone proceeded unin terruptedly to completion. The results of the working of the line have jus tified these labours and this expenditure. In the first year of its opening the receipts have exceeded $5,000,000. In 1866 the receipts will be nearly $6,000,000, and with the great development and ad ditional sources of traffic rapidly opening up, it is not too much to estimate the returns for1867at$8,000,000; and as all the main lines of railway in America have trebled their receipts in five or six years, it is not un reasonable to anticipate that by 1872 the Atlantic and Great Western will earn $15,000,000, or £3,000,000 sterling without any important increase of capital. During the present month the consoli dated freight line through New York to St. Louis, in connection with the Erie and the Ohio and Mis sissippi Railways, will commence running. In February the route will be open from Cleveland to Pittsburgh, one-half the mileage belonging to the Atlantic and Great Western. During the summer direct communication will be established with Buffalo, and the completion of the New Lisbon Extension will bring the railway into close connec tion with the great coal fields of Ohio. And yet, after accomplishing so much, with pros pects so brilliant, and although every promise made to the public has been faithfully fulfulled, every liability for coupons promptly met, the securities of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway are at prices as speculative as if dividends were doubtful for many years. This is not the response the com pany had a right to expect for so much labour and so much geod faith. Letters are daily received, almost without excep tion, kind in their tone, and expressing confidence, but naturally very anxious as to the great fall in quotations. I unhesitatingly reply that there is nothing in the position of the railway to warrant depreciation, but it has many rivals, and there are many unscrupulous persons who, for purposes of their own, have been for months organising schemes to depreciate its bonds and debentures in the market. ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. CONSOLIDATED. NEW YORK-.-PENNSYLVANIA-01110. LIABILITIES. First—The mortgage debt of the railway, as authorised by the Consolidated Act of 1865, is $30,000,000 or £6,000,000 sterling, viz.:— Bonds issued by the several divisions... $11,647,000 Consolidated Bonds issued ... ... 18,353,000 $30,000,000 The entire property (including rolling stock) and revenues of the Atlantic and Great Western Rail way, 507 miles in operation, are mortgaged as security for the principal and interest of these bonds, and there is no other mortgage debt whatever. These bonds take precedence of all other debts. The mortgage is duly recorded in every county through which the railway runs. Second—The Certificates of Debenture issued in November, 1864, under special powers of attorney from the Atlantic and Great Western Railway Com pany to meet the requirements of the London Stock Exchange, due in November, 1867, for £2,800,000 sterling, bear interest at 8 per cent. per annum, and are collaterally secured (the company being liable for the principal and interest) by a deposit with the trustees of bonds and shares amounting to $20,708,750, as endorsed on each debenture. Third.—The share capital of the railway, autho rised by the same act, is $30,000,000, and is held by the public and as collaterals for loans. The charges on the revenues of the railway rank in order of precedence, as under : 1. Interest on the bond debt. 2. Interest on the certificates of debenture. 3. Dividends on shares.

The banquet to the American yachtsmen, which came off at the Gloucester Hotel, Cowes, last Satur day, was one of the few public dinners at which we regret it was not our good fortune to be present. Sir John Simeon, Bart., M.P. for the Isle of Wight, presided. The walls were draped with American and English flags, and even the ceiling was painted with the stars and stripes. Laurels and artificial roses hung in festoons around the room, and mottoes conveying compliments to the guests occupied con spicuous positions. The naval band of H.M.S. Hector, and a military band from Winchester, played during the dinner and after the several toasts. The affair was admirably conducted, ar d the gallant American yachtsmen threw such a vein of " chaff " and fun into the speeches that all round the table were kept in one continued roar of laughter. It is a pity that the Poet Laureate was prevented from attending on account of the illness of Mrs. Tennyson, other wise the scene might have furnished his pen with the materials for a song, which would have been hailed with pleasure by both nations, and handed down the event to remote posterity. The genuine good feeling, combined with the racy wit displayed by the guests, must be seized at the moment of in spiration, or it cannot in all its freshness be repro duced. We have, however, to thank the correspon dents of the Press for an admirable report. It is difficult, among so many excellent speeches, so varied in style, to select. Colonel Taylor responded on behalf of the United States army, and the im pression he made on the company was so profound that the chairman personally thanked him for the admirable expression of his generous and kindly sentiments. Mr. Lawrence Jerome (the name will long live in connection with horse-racing in the United States) replied in a speech so droll and witty that every one was irresistibly forced into shouts of laughter, which commenced when he began and ended only when he finished. Commodore MTicar, in responding to the toast of the New York Yacht Club, with which his own health was coupled, alluded in a very happy manner to the reception of his fellow-countrymen, and to the mottoes sur rounding the hall. Then followed what the Chairman said was the toast of the evening—" James Gordon Bennett, Esq., jun., the winner of the Ocean Race, and our American guests." That gentleman replied in astraiu resembling the speech of Mr. Jerome, and the table was kept in a roar. On his drawing a picture of a sharp-nosed Yankee who drank cider to make him nose redder, and alluding to Mr. Jerome, that gen tleman facetiously called " order," and claimed the Chairman's protection. On this Mr. Bennett re .......--_,..........—.0--. torted by saying, " Of c o urse , Mr. Chairman, if I am to be interrupted by a Yankee, I must sit down, for I have forgotten what I was going to say ;" and down he sat, among his companions convulsed with the laughter the incident had excited. After several other toast " The Press" was proposed, and Mr. Fiske, of the New York: Herald, was loudly called on to respond. This able writer fcllowed i n Mr. Bennett's wake in the style in which he answered the call, and " chaffed" his friends and companions of the adventurous voyage.- He declared that he had been kept up night and day to do all the writ ing, from his friends' love-letters down to the ships log. In accomplishing the latter task he had to be constantly with Captain Samuels, who required mites to be taken of all he did. All the praise, therefore , they had given to Captain Samuels was his also- Nor did his work cease on his arrival at Ca wes, for there lie had to write the reports to the papers, anc l to compose all the speeches which the American yachtsmen had made there that night. Good a; these speeches were they had not heard thyrn all yet, for his friend Mr. Centre had to make one, which he wrote for him, with the applause inserted, to save the reporters trouble. He was happy in the applause awarded to the wit and eloquence of Mr. Ben' !, nett and of Colonel Taylor, who had addressed them, and he was glad to see they had good memories.'' Nor while firing away right and left did he o ver t look Commodore M'Vicar, who had, he declared , "forgotten the last part of his speech. Having dealt with his friends so liberally, he now found himself without a speech to deliver. Nor was that all, for one of the reporters had called on him to write the !: speech that Mr. Jerome had made. Ile had bee° most agreeably disappointed in Old England, which he had heard was a foggy co un t r y, w h ere it was : difficult to become acquainted. They were told that they would be looked upon coldly, and that those they would meet were like walnuts, who had to he ..! cracked before they could be got at. With this jai - ,1 pression, when on his way to London he chose a second in preference to a first-class carriage, where he was informed he would be likely to meet people, less icy in their coldness. F or th e fi rst h our no otie I spoke a word, and he thought--how thorou i s;h l 9l English this is ! From the window he saw o° , l scenery of Pennsyl v ania o n one s id e , thatl of New Jersey on the other, the only differeneeii being that here they had hed ges . I ns tead, of fog, the sun . was brightly shi n i ng . A t i t the end of the hour some one began toil talk, then another brought out brandy an d w ater, and soon they were thoroughly at home. It would be difficult to get theta back to Americ a , an d would many telegrams, so h ear ty h a d b een thLd-r reception. But whether they wen t or no t, the, would certainly meet a t th e F renc h E x hibition. There were laurels yet to be won , w hi c h Mr. Centr e would express to them fully, for h e h a d wr i tten hi° speech out expressly." On thi s M r. C entre rose amidst much laughter, and d ec l are d h e h a d for' gotten the speech referred to. Mr. Jerome, who , in his first speech had said that he h a d no t p re pared his speech, although others had learnt theirs, and had had them written for them, then rose, and mad e another facetious address, representing himself a ° having been naturalised, and calling his companion ° " You Americans," who he was glad to see in Eng' land, where the utmost good feeling existed to' wards them." Mr. Bennett observed that he an d Mr. Jerome were the only two Americans present who had not prepared their speeches. This wag exactly what Mr. Fiske had said ; his statemen t being that he had prepared all the speeches. r ib ° merry party separated at midni g ht, a f ter au even" ing of thorough enjoyment, which was the b e tter appreciated from the contrast it afforded to th e hardships they had encountered in the successfu l performances of their perilous feat.
