ATOM v TVI All K Lid Ul A L T E.LL CITY, TSV 0 O'CLOCK. The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 8,000 bales, including 1,000 American taken for export. The market closed heavily without change iu prices. The sales com prised 6,000 American, 400 Pernam and Maran ham at 52d. to 6id., 50 Bahia at 6gd., 100 Egyp tian at 6d. to 7/d., and 1,500 Surat at 3d. to 4-1-d. per lb. Railway shares were very dull. A good general business has been done in pro duce this week, and at full prices. Tea and rice have each been in brisk demand, and at fuller rates, especially for the latter. Spices have been at an advance, and cochineal is ld. per lb. higher. In jute there has been another decline of 255. to 30s. per ton. Tallow has fallen. Iron is dull. In rum a good business has been transacted, a Govern ment contract for 50,000 gallons being announced. Not much has been done in either sugar or coffee. The total import of Sugar to this port has been 39,000 tons more than in the former year ; export deliveries are 4,800 less, and 1,60 U larger for home trade purposes. The excess in stock is 20,000 tons. Imports of all sorts of Coffee into the United Kingdom up to the close of August were 1,700 tons, and 15,253 last year ; deliveries for home trade purposes 11,500, against 11,260, for export 9,500, and 6,775 in the former season. On the Ist of the mouth stocks were 13,800, and last year 18,000. In the chief ports of Europe, including Great Britain, stocks are 75,980, and at same date last year 83,810 tons. The auctions declared for Thursday comprise 2,000 bags Native Ceylon, for Tuesday 200 casks Plantation, 500 bales and half bales Mocha, and for the 29th 3,700 bags Porto Rico, and 52 casks Plantation Ceylon. In letters received from Stockholm it is men tioned that the allied fleets had entirely quitted the Aland islands, but that the Gulfs of Bothnia and Finland were still blockaded. It is not stated whether the allied fleets which were at the Aland islands intend reinforceing the blockading squadron. Many more of the members of the two Chambers in Denmark had resigned, but they were ordinarily Plac e d by other candidates belonging exclusively to the party opposing the existing Ministry. At Copen hagen three liberals were elected by alarge majority. The trade from Russia across to the Prussian frontier * was carried on with great activity, an immense number of carts being employed, and the steamers fron t Hamburgh every week were largely freighted With hemp, linseed, 8.r.c., bought on English ac- Co unt- Although this partial trade mast benefit our enemies, the Russian producer will unques tionably suffer by having to sell cheaper in order to Meet the extra cost. of conveyance, as well as by seeing his stocks accumulate. In adverting yesterday to the case of the Otto man Bank, we mentioned the existence of the finnan intact, and the transfer of all the rights and privileges therein conferred upon the original founders to Messrs. Trouve, Chauvel, and Stanley. This morning the original documents have been submitted to us, and it is only necessary to remark that they are most ample and conclusive. We have received the following from a correspondent : "TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. "Sir,—The Times, in its Money Market,' publishes some extracts, and one document, from the Journal of Constantinople, stated to be official—and that an official Paper, in reference to the Turkish loan, and the parties cl aiming as the representativ es of the Oriental Bank (of C onstantinople), to have the assig nation of the Egyptian tribute. Th e document therein quoted is a spurious, and clearly a compulsory a bnegation of certain rights, a : original founders of the projected Bank of Constantinople. Some more than one year ago surrendered in favour of the parties now authorised for the establishment of that bank, and to 'whom the Egyptian tribute was, therefore, with all other privileges, assigned. That resignation of the first t founders in favour of the present holders was acce p ted .by the Divan and the Sultan, and a new contract was Passed with all formality, and the Sultan'sfirman, with the representatives of the Oriental Bank as now acting. I have seen the documents, and can testify in the case, the e T ssfo ki rgery be challenged, which I call on M. Musurus, s et h n Envoy (Greek by name), to state whether such be the intent not. The representatives of the Ottoman Bank answered his original incrimination with docu merts in disproof, n.ver yet attempted Lo be rebutted. Everybody knows, the Times correspondents not the least or last, as many citations might show, the ex cessive corruption of Turkish officials and the Ottoman Government—Reschid Pacha once scandalised in that Paper among others—as might be quoted. " But that and all this is beyond the real question. We are now on the 22d of September ; the loan was contracted on the 20th of August. We know that the Turkish envoy (as he has shown himself) can receive a despatch in nine days. Thirty-three days have passed, 1 11 which there has certainly been ample time, and to I . Apare, for two despatches to have been received, since !lae contract of the loan must have been officially made known to the Turkish Government. " Where, then, is the acceptance of that loan, and the firnian of ratification, and why not made public if re ceived ? What but makeshift and moonshine is it to _ , o P u u t p prosy nothings from theJourna/ of Constantinople a_u .s.cn questions gone by. As one of those devoutly g . well to Turkey, and to any honourable efforts to aid in the pecuniary difficulties,—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, "A PLAIN DEALER." "N.B.—lf the loan had been recognised and all in order, the premium would have hardly declined so low all 3 per cent., and business in it so dull and difficult. The supplementary million now issued, should have bade prices better, not worse, if so really a good thing at , the ratification should make it. For if two millions Should be good for 5 premium, it has been 7, surely a supplementary million should command no less, but rather more. That is not the way in which a practised Land in loan affairs would, or has been accustomed to, manage matters. Let us have the firman of ratifica tion, and all further verbiage may be saved on the part of envoy agents and contractors." The following prices are given by Messrs.

CON EXC fIA I•TGE. Tho present week's arrival of English wheat up to our market, coastwise, has been very limited. The quantity received fresh up to-day was small. The few samples on the stands met a fair demand, and in some instances prices were the turn higher than on Monday; but the business doing was by no means extensive. We had a moderate inquiry for foreign wheat at full quotations. The imports are only 2,450 quarters. Float ing cargoes of grain commanded fully the late advance. Barley moved off steadily, and late rates were well sup ported. _ The malt trade was dull, on former terms. Oats, the show of which was small, sold steadily, and prices had an upward tendency. Beans, peas, and flour were steady. The top price of flour was 55s per 2801bs. ARRIVALS MIS PEEK. Enr,ll,sh .. Irish .... Foreizn .. Wheat. 1,730 Barley. 213 D Malt. Oat!.

The show of beasts here to-day was very moderate, and much out of condition. The few prime herds on offer sold steadily at full prices. Otherwise the beef trade ruled heavy at late rates.

THE fiATIVEST.—BARNSLET, Sept. 20.—The wheat har vest, which is just on the point of conclusion in this part of Yorkshire, is the most productive we have had for many years past. EXTENSIVE FIRE AT PLEASLEY, DERBYSHIRE.--The most extensive and destructive fire which ever occurred in this neighbourhood took place at Pleasley on Satur day last, through the gross negligence of a labourer. The scene of the conflagration was upon the farm pre mises of Mr. Thomas Belfield and Mrs. Sarah Deans, whose homesteads and stackyards are only separated from each other by a fence wall. The property destroyed was all the present year's produce, and its value is wholly covered by insurance. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE INVASION 'OF THE CRIMEA. we are again enabled to lay before our readers additional military documents, issued at Varna on the 3d : INVASION OF THE CRIMEA. DUTIES OF BOATS, AND DUTIES OF OFFICJIRS COMIANDING THEM. 1. Care is to be taken not to over-crowd the boats, room is to be left to pull the four foremost oars in the boats that are towed, strict silence to be observed, on no account to break the line by advancing out of it ; the advance to be steady in line abreast ; the cutters towing are to sheer to starboard when close to the beach, to allow the boats astern of them to take the beach on their port hand. If anything renders it necessary to pull short round for retreat or alteration of movement, boats are always to pull to starboard, never going round to port unless ordered by signal. The instant the boats are cleared of infantry, they are to make the best of their way to the ships of the next division they are told off for to land the troops. The boats, on receiving the troops of each division, will form without loss of time, as they did for landing the Light Division, waiting the signal to advance. All boats of the transport service not appointed to land troops after the Light Division are landed, will as semble half on the off shore side of the Emperor, and half on the off-shore side of the City of London (see de tails) ; all reserve boats of ships of war will assemble on the off-shore side of the Agamemnon. When approaching the beach the grapnels or small anchors are to be let go from the stern, and the line veered as the boats close in ready for hauling out again rapidly. • 2. Boats are appointed to carry on shore the first Minie reserve ammunition, as undermentioned : Light Division in No. 21-1 troop-boat, 1 pinnace, 1 cutter, from Simoom.

The steamers are not to advance with their flats until all are ready to proceed together ; the horse artillery going to the right, the field artillery to the left. The duty of the tugs will be to proceed each one to the transport for which he is told off, commencing with those of the light division, for the purpose of towing the flats with the artillery and horses, and waggons and horses. The officer commanding the tug must take care that he does not consider the ship clear until he has towed in from each two guns with their horses and two waggons with their horses. Each horse artillery transport of the light division, Nos. 60, 39, 98, will have three flats ; and the foot artil lery, Nos. 42, 43, 44, two flats at each trip ; the first for guns, limbers, and horses, the second for waggons and horses. The pinnaces in attendance on the flats will take them to and from the tugs. A pinnace will be in attendance with the Pigmy. DIVISIONS OP BOATS.

R OP csetresr appointed) Li p Mr. Cleland, one medical yffi the district o f R atcliff, reported seven deaths iia fgor, Va rious pa r t s o f t h e parish from n malignant cholera. The epidemic has b een much on the increase during the last few day s , an d t h e cases which Mr. ornn _ i Cle and has been attending have occurred in the over -crowded houses in George-cou r t, H arr i s ' s -court, Brook -street, Meeting house-lane, an d G eorge -street, Ratcliff - square. I n t h e latter place there are three persons lying dead in one house. A meeting of the board of guardians was held in the workhouse, York-street, Ratcliff, yesterday even ing, for the purpose of making additional arrangements for the relief of the necessitous poor who may be afflicted with diarrhoea, vomiting, and other symptoms of the cholera. ST. MATTHEW, BETHY.A L-GREEN.—At the weekly meeting of guardians for the parish of St. Matthew, Bethnal-green, who assembled at the workhouse, Bishop Bonner's-fields, Victoria-park, several important resolu tions were proposed, and carried unanimously, for the general and sanitary improvement of the district where the cholera has been most prevalent. THE STEPNEY UNION. —At an inquest held yesterday before Mr. W. Baker, the coroner, at the Alfred's Head public-house, Silver-street, Stepney-green, the registrar stated that several fatal cases of cholera had occurred in the union during the last few days, although the epi demic had not made much progress. It was, in his opinion, subsiding. WHITECHAPEL UNlON.—Several deaths from Asiatic cholera have been removed from various parts of the Whitechapel union to the workhouse in Whitechapel road, and many deaths have taken place in the infir mary or cholera ward. Mr. Richardson and Mr. Payne, the parochial surgeons, are in daily attendance upon the afflicted poor, who have been removed from their mi serable and unwholesome dwellings to the workhouse by order of the medical inspectors. The malady has been particularly fatal in the district of Rosemary-lane and the courts situated on the north side of Upper East Smithfield, St. Katherine's Docks. Three deaths were registered yesterday by Mr. J. Harris, the registrar. The deceased persons died after a few hours' illness. THE LONDON HOSPITAL—No fewer than seven per sons have died from the effects of the epidemic in the cholera ward of the London Hospital since Monday last, and there are a great aumber of dangerous cases in the institution, under the care of Dr. Burch, the resident physician, and his assistants. The number of out-door patients increase daily, and medicine is given away to all applicants without an order. Towzn LONDON.—Four fatal cases of Asiatic cholera have occurred in the Tower of London among the military and other persons employed therein during the last few days, notwithstanding the excellent arrange ments of the medical officers of the garrison. ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE -EAST. Yesterday morning several fatal cases were recorded by Mr. Thomas Over ton, the inspector of nuisances for St. George's-in-the- East. Two deaths took place in the cholera hospital, Back-road, Cannon-street, and other deaths occurred in Pell-street, Ellen-street, and Ratcliff-highway. In the latter place there is a great deficiency of drainage to the dwelling-houses, and several obnoxious trades are al lowed to be carried on, to the impending danger of the inhabitants. Ss. ANNE'S, LIMEHOUSE.—Two deaths occurred yes terday forenoon in Pleasant-place and Nightingale-lane, St. Anne's, Limehouse, front the epidemic, and the bodies were removed to the vault of the parish church for interment, by order of the parochial authorities. NEW - TOWN.—Yesterday afternoon Mr. A. Hughes, the summoning officer for the hamlet of Mile end New-town, reported a fatal case of Asiatic cholera to Mr. Baker, the coroner, which took place very sud denly in the street. An inquest will be held on the body. Several deaths from the epidemic have occurred in Spital-street, Brick-lane, and other over -crowded places in the district. ST. PAUL'S, SHADWELL.—Two deaths were reported yesterday by Mr. Rogers, the inspector of nuisances f or the parish of St. Paul, Shadwell, which happened in New Gravel-lane, Wapping-wall, and other close and confined places. ALL-SiINTS' POPLAR.—The epidemic, on inquiry yes terday at All-Saints', Poplar, had considerably decreased among the poor. The arrangements for the relief of the afflicted are well directed and complete. The parochial officials have appointed a new medical staff, who will act for three months, and for a longer period if necessary. THE ILLEGAL ROMAN CATHOLIC MAR. RIAGE.—COMMITTAL OF DR. FEB.• Gusoir. Yesterday afternoon being the day appointed for the final examination of the Rev. Thomas Tierney Ferguson, D.D., the officiating priest of St. Thomas's Roman Ca tholic Chapel, in the Fulham-fields, Mr. Cornell, the registrar of marriages for the dis trict, gave the complimentary evidence for which the inquiry had been adjourned, and Mr. Paynter announced his intention to send the case for trial, taking meanwhile the same bail for the de fendant's appearance as on previous occasions. Mr. Clarkson said that at the proper time and 'place he would show that the defendant could not be convicted of any offence. At the same time he thanked the ma gistrate for the merciful and forbearing manner in which ho had heard the case. Mr. Paynter, in alluding to the word merciful, men tioned that this was the first case where he had ever issued a summons against any person for committing a felony. It was usual for the parties to be taken into custody, but in this instance ho had thought it better that Dr. Ferguson should be summoned, and not taken into custody. Mr. Clarkson then left the court, and The Chief Clerk proceeded to reduce the minutes he had taken of the evidenoe given by the different wit nesses to the depositions, and upon their completion, shortly before five o'clock, the complainant was, for the first time that day, called in to hear the whole of her evidence read over. She was very decently attired, and conducted herself with great propriety. Dr. Ferguson was here directed to stand up during the reading of the depositions, and when Mr. Taylor had finished reading the whole, which the witnesses declared was quite correct, Mr. Jones mentioned that in a former statement made by the complainant the fees required and paid to Dr. Fer guson were alluded to, but they did nut now appear ou the depositions. Mr. Paynter asked the complainant if the fees were paid to Dr. Ferguson on the evening before the marriage. The complainant said they only had Gs., which ws,s not sufficient, and Dr. Ferguson told them to come the next morning and he would marry them. Dr. Ferguson would have married them that evening if they had been provided with the fees: Mr. Paynter wished to know if the complainant asked the defendant to marry them on that evening. The complainant said Dr. Ferguson wished them to be married that evening. She never asked him. Mr. Paynter asked her if she was quite sure of that The complainant said she was. Mr. Paynter—And that Dr. Ferguson was prepared to solemnise the marriage that evening if they had been provided with the fees. --- The complainant said Dr. Ferguson expressed him self so. Mr. Paynter thought it was desirable that what the complainant had just stated should be added to her deposition. Mr. Taylor having introduced that part of her evi dence, and having read it over, • The complainant said it was quite correct, and then affixed her signature to the deposition. Mr. Paynter told Dr. Ferguson that he must read the usual caution to him, it being merely a form, for he sup posed that he should reserve his defence. Dr. Ferguson said, by the advice of his counsel and Mr. Harting, he should reserve his defence. Mr. Paynter then said the defendant would be com mitted for trial at the Central Criminal Court iu Oc- tober next. The same bail—namely, two sureties in 4061. each and himself in 800/.—were then enlarged, and the defendant soon after retired with his friends. Mr. Paynter was most anxious that as the ease had caused a•great deal of interest in that neighbourhood, that every person should fully understand that when marriages took place in licensed chapels, it was necessary that the registrar should be present to make the cere mony valid. He made those observations in that court as it would be more broadly known ; and he would par ticularly point out to those persons who were married in such places to ascertain before the ceremony took place that the registrar was present, and not to allow the marriage to go on unless he was there. He thought that a notice was posted up the superintendent's office, that marriages were not valid unless the registrar was present, it would have the effect of acquainting those persons he alluded to—the lower class of society, who were not expected to know every act of parliament— what was necessary to make their marriage valid. ____,....

By Lady Scott, author ofilie S; "Henpecked Husband." 2 vols. ROaledke. Although it is very unlikely that such events should often occur in real life as those we see chronicled hero, there is an air of reality imparted to their description. The characters of the many persons required to be introduced are also easily and naturally drawn. The plot is exceedingly complicated and intricate, but that is necessary for the carrying out of the author's design. That design is evidently to show forth in its most unin viting and glaring colours the false feeling of self esteem, pride of station, &c. The - vice asit was engen gered in the mind: of the Eveleen family was, indeed, reprehensible and inexcusable. They had no excuse to offer of being forced to associate or mingle with a low-born or ill-bred individual. Saverell, the ill-used and persecuted heroine, was more than equal to mix with them, or any of their titled circle. In nature, grace, and inward re finement they were far her inferiors, and while they felt this they would not yield to their convic tions. The conduct of Mordaunt Eveleen, the ill chosen husband of the lovely Saverell, is well sketched. His love was not of very deep founda tion ; it was more from self-will and flattered vanity than any other cause that he was urged by his fancy to seek out one whom he had far rather never have seen for her peace and his credit. Once united in that unequal struggle against a scoffing world without and the still more to be dreaded world within, whose confines were bord ere d b y his home, only one straight course lay b e f ore them. They should have held together and been superior ghtoe,tahne Halite others. By thi s means their friends would have been afraid or ashamed to be o th erwi se than civil ; d their on th© contrary, Mordaunt was at heart more a Proud and se lfi s h thanfa a m n il a y m w i o s u chi ld e h f a v o e f member of his circle. H e was tinai mean spirited. H e stood d ny vacillating, and and the nex t h e lamented the by herside day, . r his order. By this means, of cour s e etd dignity h e f one rtu nate Saverell, as s h e was styled, for particularuio and un fortunate reason, was so on su bj ected to most cruel tor men t s. Mordaunt forbade her seei her parents, as she supposed them to be, till her mother, as she then believed her to be, died with out having seen her again. Saverell Muggridge, as she was called prior to her wedding, was not one to return evil for evil. The dark hour came to the ancestral hall, which had struck terror to the gloomy lodging, and Mr. Eveleen was summoned away. Then, while his large and prosperous family were scattered far and wide, on matters of business, fashion, or plea sure, the unhappy and deserted old man would have died alone. " There were none of all his halls had nurser —had it not been for his despised and discarded daughter-in law. She stood by him in the night of suffering and sorrow, and rendered his last moments happy. She was alone with hint in the awful hour of death. Afterwards it was found out that the Eveleens must descend in the world, for all the property was mort gaged and encum b ere d to a heavy extent. At' this gloomy prospect the hearts of all were downcast. Saverell's spirit supported her, and induced them to exertion ; she reminded them that poverty was no new lessen for her to learn, and that she could support herself, and some of them by her paintings, which she had been celebrated for in youth. Mordaunt was forced to acknowledge her superiority to his sisters, who, each wont her way, complaining, but impervious to remedy or belief. A brighter prospect dawned on the young adventurers, all the overbearing members had left them alone, and now Saverell was resolute to work. Next of all she sought out her supposed father, whom she had l os t s i g ht o f for some time. lere the narrative becomes very complicated ; but it will suffice to say that after much search and inquiry the unfortunate Mr. Muggridge was discovered, and the secret enemy discovered to be the usurper of Saverell's rights. She was only the adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Muggridge, and not their real child, as she had believed herself to be. After all the sneers and sarcasms of the Eveleens as to " m6s alliance" and " parvenues," their unwelcome re lation took a far higher grade in society than they did. Saverell's first act, on the recovery of her fortune, was ono of generosity. She purchased the family seat of the Eveleens, which had been sold in consequence of their debts at the father's death. After the ill-natured and incon siderate conduct of Mordaunt Eveleen, it is only the fate he merited to be cut off from the enjoyment of the new-found trea sures. His death was no calamity, although the gentle sufferer, by his ill usage, mourne d d eep l y f or him. After the lapse of some years we are in formed that she married Lord Arlington, who had always been a firm friend of hers. The conclusion is more satisfactory than such denouements generally are, for it was ;cert a i n l y a c h ange for the better for the long-tried and much-enduring heroine to turn from selfishness and conceit to generosity and high-mindedness. School Experiences of a Fag at a Private and a Public School. By George Melly. Smith, Elder, and Co. The author of this work, being of opinion that the public had received unjust impressions of the monitorial system of public schools, determined to chronicle the result of his own experience. His opinion is that the system adopted at public schools, where the younger boys are under the protection of the monitor and heads of " the house," is far better than th a t o f a l arge private school, where there is no check upon the tyrants. Much may no doubt, as in other questions, be advocated on both sides ; but it is to be questioned if all private schools are as ill-conducted as the one here de scribed ; for it is evident that the head master must have been greatly to blame for not having a better knowledge of what went on under his guardian ship, and for not vigorously checking the system of persecution when instances were reported to him. In the public school, also, the writer may have been particularly fortunate in the dispositions of those iu power. But allowing the principle which he advocates so strongly to be the best, some other compensation might certainly be allowed to the sixth form, instead of the practice of " fagging" the younger boys. The writer asks, " What con stitutes the difference between a public and a pri vate school Y It is not the numbers, for many of our private schools contain two or three hundred boys. It is self-government. We admit and che rish the principle in eveiy other relation of life— why refuse to admit it here ! The British consti tution is founded on the principle of local self government, and the great value of a public school is its close resemblance to the outer world around it." The following extract is from the concluding remarks of the author "The chief deduction which I draw from my expe rience under each system is this : where a large number of boys are gathered together there must inevitably be much oppression and tyranny ; it is, therefore, better freely to sanction and strictly to legalise that power which you cannot withhold from the bigger boys, by en trusting it to those who combine influence with know ledge, and age with high character. By making theta responsible for its impartial exercise, and rendering it their interest, as well as their duty, to protect all who are in need of their protectie - .you at once enlist them on the right side. "It has been urged that it is bad for the morals of monitors to ibe, as boys, entrusted with such absolute power. I reply that they actually possess it already, and nothing can prevent their exercising it ; and that the r force rong is n monitorial s y s t em only places it under due regulatioa. In every co mmun i ty—be it a family or a township, a s e c i uec h etn o , n o ete l hde , e. oo rymepe- Tarahtnti matured r t ee i soduwnpee artki judgment, e t h set will,though not only o e sn p l ydowt the powerful predominatingu l n e i nitel exert tl innate, but acknowledged, and, under due regulation, it is beneficial to all. Th a t system, therefore, which best provides for its judiciou s exerc i se in a community of boys, is the most salutary ; and, whatever i mprovements ma y yet be made, th e monitorial system seems as yet to b e th e nest, if ri g htl y carried out. "It has been suggested that, instead of monitors, it would • the masters s h ould be more nIiDACTOIIII require an enormous increase of their num be rs . would they b e as efficientas monitor could expect th a t b oys of every dage' fsm . twelve to twenty, could live continusllY.un er the eve of a mas ter as they d o under that o t theif espionage as could be r own sixth form. That ro for no one Nor would be as bad a systera adopted, f or th e master would sters could not enter into, un derstand, or appr ecia te the feelings, or discover the k be at once 'ac c u ser , o judge, and s py.' The masters p , an d vicesof the school so well as the moni tors,ea who are still s choolfellows in every game, and on ly -students while on duty. The f ags are the w fellow the monitors in all respects b u t cease to be equals o and experioints of t ong th, sense, ease—p different order, and cannot e i t h er b e t o rs belong to a loved, respected, or feared as a monitor wou ld b e, whose s age , :Prioxrirty which boys readily acknowledge ; b u t mas ters alone, moreover, exerts a most salut ar y influ encethe boys under his control. I canno t f or a o n mo ment con template the spread of vi ce an d t h e i ncrease o deceit, which would ensue if Eto n , H arrow, and Rugb y were to substitute for monit ors a numerous staff 0 m asters. The writer certainly succeeds in placing the system in a favourable point of view, and many may feel interested in perusing his details and examining his arguments, while the lively sketches of schoolboy doings will entertain many who do not trouble themselves to examine the relative merits of oppos ing systems.
