As compared with this time yesterday prices are higher, but they are not at their highest point. The partial reaction which set in yesterday has not been r ecovered, and it is not unlikely that in view of the fortnightl y settlement, which begins on Monday, that speculative sales will be sufficiently numerous to modify prices.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ANNOYING THE INMATES OF THE MISSION-HOUSE, GREEK-STREET.—WaIter Blackburn, a lad, living in Compton-street, Soho, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following disgraceful conduct. Police-constable Joseph Edwards, 224 C, said that about ten minutes past 11 o'clock last night he saw the prisoner and other lads come out of the lec ture hall in Rose-street, Soho, and the prisoner and another lad pushed against a man and woman, and then ran down Greek-street and commenced shout ing at the top of their voices, and made use of the most disgraceful language, as was a practice with the lads leaving the hall nightly. Inspector Harrison said he lived close to the spot and heard the noise made by the lads last night, and similar conduct was of nightly occurrence. He had been constantly spoken to by the inhabitants to abate the nuisance, and had some of the in habitants in attendance to speak of the nuisance. 'lwo of the sisters from the Mission House, in Greek-street, stepped forward, and one of them said they were constantly being annoyed by the disgraceful conduct of the lads frequenting the hall. They were called very bad names, and kept awake of a night by the disturbance made by them. The prisoner said that all he had to say was that he came out of the Working Men's Club last night about eleven o'clock, and some of the lads knocked off his hat in Greek-street, and a policeman then came up and took him into custody. Mr. Tyrwhitt said the prisoner was one of those lads who, because he went to a place to learn drawing and writing and such things, assumed to lord it over every respectable person in the street He was well aware what a nuisance such lads must be to a neighbourhood, and should fine the prisoner 408., or a month. Thomas Ashley, 16, was charged with being drunk and disorderly. The prisoner was seen in company of a number of other rough characters who infest the neighbour hood of Carnaby-street, and are a source of great trouble to the public, pushing against persons, and throwing himself in front of them for the pur pose of upsetting them, and a constable took him into custody, when he found that he was drunk. Inspector Harrison begged to remind the magis trate that the present case was from Carnaby-street, a street from which he was receiving continual complaints of the conduct of such lads as the pri soner, and from which place a lad was charged with similar conduct a few days ago. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the prisoner 408. or a month's imprisonment. WESTMINSTER. REMARKABLE CHARGE OF FELONT.—Charles Martin, a man about 40, was placed at the bar charged with embezzling various sums received for, and on account of, his master. James Lane, of 6, Harriett-street, Chelsea, coal merchant, said prisoner bad been in his service since last month as collector of orders and money. On Monday he absconded, having received various sums. One was from Mrs. Hoskan, a customer. Mrs. Hoskan said she paid the prisoner 10s. on Tuesday and produced his receipt. Prisoner said he had no right to have been charged ; he was partner with Mr. Lane in the business. Mr. Lane denied this positively, and said he paid the prisoner a regular salary, no more and no less of 353. per week from March up to about four months ago when it was reduced to 253. The copy of a letter sent by prisoner on Monday to prosecutor was produced. It plainly asserted his claim to a share in the busineas profits, and complained that he had been putting him off with 255. per week. It aided that he had collected a few accounts, and that he would not take another order or collect another shilling until things were put upon a better footing. Another letter sent by prisoner to prosecutor was produced, in which he gave him a list of the per sons from whom he had received the money al luded to. Prosecutor produced his book, which showed that prisoner had been paid all manner of amounts weekly, and not the 355. or 255. only as stated. Mr. Arnold—You have pleased, prosecutor, to give this man into custody for felony. I shall re mand him upon his own recognizance of to ap pear again in a week. THAMES. THE SCOTCHMAN'S RETURN.—Mary Ann Carey, a basket-woman, aged 24 years, of No. 1, Hair brain-court, Blue Anchor-yard, Rosemary-lane, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with steal ing a silver watch, two pieces of gold, and four sovereigns from Mr. John Fletcher. _ _ The prosecutor, with a bronzed face and thick black beard, is a Scotchman, who has been trying his fortunes in the far distant lands of Victoria, and arrived here on Monday last in the ship Lincolnshire from Melbourne. He found his way into Whitechapel on Tuesday, and certainly did not exhibit any of the caution for which his coun trymen are proverbial. He was passing along that hot-bed of vice, intemperance, and crime, Royal Mint-street, better known as Rosemary-lane, Whitechapel, on Tuesday at noon, when the pri soner rushed out of a public-house and asked him to have a drink. One drink led to another, and he was surrounded with " lasses" who all looked very dirty and very drunk. There were also some men among the company. All the people were laughing heartily, and no wonder, for be soon found he had lost four sovereigns and two nuggets of gold, intrusted to him by a Scotch man at the diggings to convey to a friend in Scot land. He thought his watch was safe, because he saw the chain and the end of it was in his pocket, but soon afterwards discovered his watch was gone also, and he made known his loss to the police. Mr. Paget—What were the people laughing at? The Prosecutor—Ay, mon—your warsheep I mane—l dinna knew. Mr. Paget—At you, I suppose, for being so foolish. I see that two women and • man are charged on the police-sheet with being concerned in this robbery. The Prosecutor—They were all aboot me. Childs, a police-constable, 193 11, said the stranger got into a regular den of thieves, who stripped him of everything. He asked for a remand. Mr. Paget asked the prosecutor where he was going ? The Prosecutor—l was ganging to Scotland. What I am to do noo I dinna ken. Mr. Paget—Where did you sleep last night? The Prosecutor—l was oot all the nicht in a yard. Mr. Paget—Have you no resources ? The Prosecutor—None at all: siller and all Bane. Mr. Paget hoped this would be a warning to the other passengers who had arrived in the Lincoln shire to take care of their money and valuables, and leave them in a place of safety. Childs said he apprehended the prisoner this morning on Tower-hill. He knew her well as a disorderly basket-girl. He expected to have her confederates in custody very shortly. Mr. Paget remanded the prisoner for a week. TEM SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENTNG, SEPTEMBER 24, . 1868. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. RIM EDITION. NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING. WEDNESDAY.

Os beasts there were 780, including 147 foreign, and sales of all descriptions progressed very slowly, buyers having the advantage in prices. A number were left un sold. Of sheep there were 8,120, all English fed. The demand was sluggish in the extreme, and prices irregular and easier. Veal sold well at firm yricos. 319 calves on sale, IE6 being foreign. Pork unaltered. 70 pip at market. HAY. Supplies of hay stuffs are quite equal to the demand, which is dull, but in picas there is no quotable change. Meadow hay ranges up to £5 103 as the top price, clover up to .£6 6s, and straw up to 84s per load. TALLOW. The demand on the spot keeps very steady, and prizes remain without the slightest alteration. COTTON MmtKET. LtrntrooL, Sept. 24.—Sales, probably 8,000 or 10,000 bales. Market flat.

NOTICE. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Commissiouer Kerr.) THE CASE OF MADAME RACHEL. The Third Edition of " The &la" of last Evening, con taining tho Latest Betting and Races at Newmarket, was published in time for delivery in town at 7.15 p.m. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—This Day. The hearing of this case was resumed this morn ing ; the interest, judging by the crowded state of the court, having greatly increased since the first day. An application was made at the sitting of the court that the jury should go and view the premises in Bond-street, but the judge said he had no power to grant such a request. The jury, if they felt so disposed, could go and do so at the rising of the court. Mary Ann Minton, the mother of the witness Henry Minton, said she recollected a stranger coming and making inquiries about her son, and also taking out some leaves from a pocket-book be longing to her son. The boy was recalled, and identified the book. He said some alterations had been made in the writing, but they were not done by him. Col. William Edwards said he had got promotion in March, 1867. He was connected with the family of Mrs. Borrodaile, but had never communicated with her in any way, neither had he ever received large sums of money from her. He had never set eyes on Madame Rachel before he saw her in that court. He came to town in consequence of seeing a report of the case in the daily papers. Mr. Alexander Cope, the brother-in-law of Mrs. Borrodaile, said he had called upon her whilst she was living at Francis-street. lie also went to Rachel's to get explanations with respect to her having received various large sums of money from Mrs. Borrodaile for an introduction to Lord Rane lagh, but she denied all knowledge of such a circum stance. lie said he should put the matter in the hands of a solicitor. Nothing was said by the pri soner about money in his presence. He was quite certain when he saw Madame Rachel that the mum_ of Lord Ranelagh was mentioned. Nothing was said about Mr. Haymes. The day after he returned to Flintshire he received a letter from Madame Rachel, which his sister-in law admitted writing. On his asking her how she could be so foolish, she replied that she was under the magnetic influence and control of Madame Rachel. Mr. Thomas William O'Keefe said he had come forward in consequence of seeing his name men tioned in the papers. He had never in any way been familiar with Mrs. Borrodaile. He and his sons had been spoken of as Fenians, but such a charge was simply ridiculous. His son was by no means a half military, half sporting looking kind of person. His son never-wore a black moustache. By Mr. D. Seymour—He never told Mrs. Borro daile to adopt criminal in preference to civil pro ceedings. Have you ever had experience of the stringency of the one process over the other ?--Put your ques tion in a direct manner and I will answer it. I thought I had done so. (Question repeated.) I now know what you are referring to. Fifteen years ago I was tried at this court upon a charge of obtaining money from a lady under the promise of marriage. I was found guilty, but the Recorder discharged me on my own recognisances, and I paid the lady after the trial £lOO. The la ly in question eventually made a confession of the groundlessness of the charge, which I consider was quite sufficient to substantiate my innocence. [A Voice in court, " It's not true."] I have the document I have re ferred to, and can produce it. To the best of my belief I never spoke to the boy Minton before he gave evidence in the police-court. Mrs. Borrodaile had been to his house once or twice, and so had Miss Sutton, but the latter lady came in consequence of severe ill ness. I have assisted Mr. Credland in getting up the prosecution. I have often spoken to Mrs. Donoghue, the wife of one of the former bail. I have expressed my surprse that Madame Rachel should defend so bad a case. I never advised a compromise. I said I thought it was Rachel's duty to pay that money, but that referred to the civil action upon which Mr. Creiland had judg ment. I never advised a compromise on the part of Madame Rachel. The circumstance that led me to speak to Mrs. Donoghue was that I thought if Madame Rachel got bail she would not appear, and that would be a serious thing for her if her husband was bail for her to the amount of £l,OOO. By Sergeant Ballantine—l never had the slightest authority from Mrs. Borradaile to make any such proposition. I hereby pledge myself to produce the document I have referred to, as my character to a certain extent is at stake. Mr. Digby Seymour—Mr. O'Keefe, do you know this lady (pointing to a lady close by) ? Witness—Yes ; th a t i s th e l a dy i n q uesti on . 11r. Digby Seym our —Did you ever p a y h er more than £2O of the £lOO you speak of ? Witness—No ; because I was discharged from it. Miss Sutton was next examined. She spoke to a visit to Madame Rachel's with Mrs. Borrodaile. When they were all talking Mrs. Borrodaile said, with respect to the " William," " there is no William, Lord Ranelagh is the man." Madame Rachel said there was, and he had been waiting about outside the shop for over two hours. When she and Mrs. Borrodaile got out of the house they could see no one, neither did any one call after they returned home. This witness was not cross-examined by Mr. Seymour. Mr. Joseph Pyke, jeweller, of New Bond-street —He recollected Mrs. Borrodaile requiring some diamonds in 1866. He went to Rachel's house, and there he learnt that there was to be a marriage, and that jewellery was required. lie went back to his shop, and got a diamond coronet and neck lace, which were purchased. The articles were afterwards not required, and he received £lOO to cancel the transaction he had with Mrs. Borrodaile. Lord Ranelagh said—l have seen the person de scribed as Mrs. Borrodaile more than once at Mdme. Rachel's shop. I know nothing about a certain " William." I never spoke to Mrs. Borrodaile more than once. Every word in the letters read, as far as they apply to me, is entirely devoid of truth. By Mr. Digby Seymour—l solemnly declare I never gave my card to Mrs. Borrodaile. I have no doubt about that—not the slightest. The matter about the cigar is totally and entirely false. By Mr. Sergeant Ballantine—l have no recollec tion of having a second conversation with Mrs. Borrodaile about Beaufort theatricals. METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET. This was the case for the prosecution: Mr. Roberts, solicitor for the prisoner, proved that the whole of the letters read during the pre sent trial were in court and submitted to counsel previous to the first trial. Everything done at the last trial was done under the advice of counsel. He also employed a person to make inquiries about the boy Minton. He never authorised the person to say he could get him a good situation. He always thought the leaves taken from the book had been returned. Rachel Leverson, daughter of the prisoner, was called and examined by Mr. Sergeant Parry—l am 27 years of age, and the eldest daughter of the pri soner. I have a sister named Leonte ; she is about 20 or 21 years of age. My mother has seven chil dren, all younger than myself ; the youngest is seven years old. 1 have a brother in Paris named David. We never had a person in oar employ during 1866 67 named Edward. My mother only occupied the shop and parlour in Bond-street. There is a glass door between the shop and parlour. I only knew Mrs. Borrodaile ari a customer at the shop. A great many ladies came to our shop and bought expensive articles. At that time we resided at Blackheath, bat in Sept., 1866, my mother took the house in Maddox-street. Mrs. Borrodaile has never been there. 1 have never seen her write at the shop. I know nothing of the let ters signed "William." I never wrote such a let ter, neither has anybody to my knowledge. I do not recollect the introduction of Lord Rane lagh to Mrs. Borrodaile. To my knowledge the boy Minton never was employed to write letters for my mother. I know he has beeu turned out of our house more than once. -He came with messages from Mr. Taylor. By Sergeant Ballantiue—The house was taken in Ma ldox-street in the month of June, 1866, but we were not in possession until December, as it re quired painting and a great outlay of money. I don't know that in 1866 my mother had an opera box, but I know she had one in December, '66-67. It was on the pit tier, one of the 400 guinea boxes. It was in '67 we went to Paris. As my mother could not write I or my sister used to write her letters. We bad a boy named William in the shop, but I have not seen him for a long time until I saw him at the office of Mr. Roberts before the commencement of the proceedings in this court. It was after the Marlborough-street case. I can not say that the buy had left before I went to Paris in 1867. I will swear that I never saw Mrs. Bor rodaile at the parlour of the Bond-street shop of an evening. Sergeant Ballan tine—Do you mean to swear that on your solemn oath ? Witness—Yes, I do. I never saw her in the par lour of an evening. I was constantly there. Sergeant Ballantine—That you swear solemnly ; now do be careful. Witness—l never saw her there of an evening. Sergeant Ballantine—Did you ever know that your mother received letters from Mrs. Borrodaile ? Witness—No, I never was aware of such a thing ; neither do I know that my mamma received letters to give to Mrs. Borrodaile. I cannot say posi tively at what hour we close the shop. It varied very much. Sometimes early, sometimes late. My sister was at the shop more than myself. I never saw the boy Minton in my life. Sergeant Ballantine—Then how came you to swear he was frequently turned out of your mamma's house ? Witness—My sister told me so. I knew no par ticular " William" ; the name is a very common one. Mrs. Burrodaile gave a great deal of trouble. She was constantly in and out of the shop in the day time. I never saw her write there on those occasions. Sergeant Ballautine—l see you deal in soap-- such, for instance, as Alexandra soap, two guineas a cake ; Royal nursery soap, two guineas a cake ; Victoria soap, two guineas a cake ; Armenian liquid for removing wrinkles—(laughter) ; Jordan water, ten guineas and twenty guineas a bottle. Where do you get the Jordan water from ? Wituers--It is brought from abroad. Sergeant Ballantiue—By whom? "Witness—l shall not tell. It is water consigned to us from the East and possesses powers of a par tizular quality. Sergeant Ballantine—Where does it come from ? You don't mean to say it is from the River Jordan ? Witness—lt comes from the East. Sergeant Ballantine—Yes, that might be Wap ping. (Loud laughter.) Witness—lt is consigned to us, as I've told you from abroad. Sergt. Ballantine—You don't mean to gay you solemnly believe that it comes from the river Jordan ? Where is the river Jordan? (Laughter.) Witness remained silent. Scrgt. Ballantine—Where does the Jordan water come from ? (Laughter.) Witness—lt is sent us from abroad, and I shall not expose our business transactions. If I tell you -- Mr. Sergeant Parry (to Sergeant Ballantine)— You will go and buy some and set up an opposition establishment. (Shouts of laughter.) Sergeant Ballantine (to witness)—Will you tell me where the River Jordan is ? Witness remained silent. Sergeant Ballantine—You'll not tell me then ? Very well. (Laughter.) Witness—l said we received consignments from abroad, and that ought to be coasidered auffieient. The learned Sergeant the❑ read a quotation from Madame Rachel's pamphlet " Beautiful for ever,' relative " to the magnetic water from the Great desert of Sahara, which had the great virtue of re moving signs of antiquity"--(lund laughter)—and then asked who was the author of the book, to which witness replied " Myself and sister," and by extracts from the public papers. Miss Leonte Leverson—l am second daugh ter of the defendant. I assisted my mamma in conducting the business in Bond. street. I recollect Mrs. Borrodaile was constantly at our shop in 1866. I have never written sham letters signed " William." I have never written the name of Mrs. Borrodaile. I wrote none of the letters produced during this prosecution. I never knew any person of the name of William. I used to assist in making our preparations. We deal in cosmetics. I know the boy Minton used to bring letters from Mr. Taylor. There is no place for writing in the shop. I never saw the boy Minton in the par lour. I had to complain of his impertinence. On no single occasion was he ever asked to write a letter. On oue occasion I had to turn hint from the door. I don't know that he ever saw my mamma. I saw him on nearly every occasion that he called. By Sergeant Ballantine—Some time ago we had a boy named William, but he was only to go errands, never to write letters. Mr. Taylor's bill had not been paid because it was an unjust claim I am not aware that my mamma ever got £l,OOO for beautifying Mrs. Borrodaile. I know she had a great deal of trouble to get money from Mrs. Borrodaile. I knew Mrs. Borrodaile had large sums of money from mamma, both notes and gold. My mamma always had some money. Sergeant Ballantine—Give me one particular date when she did so. Witness—l cannot. Sergeant Ballantine—What, not one ? Witness—We often lend ladies money, but we don't take interest. Sergeant Ballantine—And you've seen your mamma lend Mrs. Borrodaile money ? Witness—Yes, often ; she was at Bond-street for it both morning and evening. Sergeant Ballantine—Now, give me one date when money was lent. itness—l cannot ; but I know it was in 1866. I cannot state the exact month, but I will swear that she did in most of the months of 1866. She always wanted very large amounts. Sergeant Ballantine—Name one. Witness—l think I recollect her having £lOO or £2OO. Sergeant Ballantine—When? Witness—ln 1866 or the year after. That's the nearest approach to date I can give you. It might be a few months before the end of the year, or a few months after the beginning of 1867. Sergeant Ballantine— And you can't give me a nearer date than that? Witness—No, I cannot. When Mrs. Borrodaile borrowed the £lOO I do not know for what pur pose she required it. I have no idea. All I know is that I heard her ask for the money, and in a short time mamma gave her the money, but I don't know from where she got it. I saw the notes, of that I am certain—(sensation)—but I cannot say from where she got them. My mamma had not a banker. I have no idea where my mamma keeps her money. I know mamma sometimes puts it in a little cabinet in the parlour. My mamma did not set up a car riage in 1866. She had an opera box during the last Beason. I know we had one at the beginning of the season, but I cannot say we had it in 1866. I was not the young lady Lord Ranelagh was talking too when he came into the shop. I never saw Mrs. Borrodaile at the shop after it was closed in the evening. Sergeant Ballantine—•What was the amount of money lent to Mrs. Borradaile on any one even ing ? Witnes.s —I don't remember. Sergeant Ballantine—Was it notes or gold ? Witness--I don't remember. Sergeant Ballantine—What was the amount ? IVitne-L-1 don't remember. Sergt. Ballantine—What did she have it for?

Sergt. Parry—You will swear that you have seen your mamma give Mrs. Borrodaile money ? Witness—That I will swear. My father is alive, but he does not live with my mamma. His resi dence is in Dean-street, Soho. The Judge (handing witness the account ren dered to Mrs. Borrodaile)--Look at that ; do you know the handwriting ? Witness—Yes; it is partly written by Mrs. Bor rodaile and my sister. Mr. Digby Seymour then commenced his reply on the part of the prisoner, and contended that the prosecution had altogether failed to prove the charges made against the prisoner. The learned gentleman had not concluded his speech at the rising of the Court. The whole of the province of Andalusia, and all the soldiers and sailors in Ferrol, the provinces of Galicia, Corunna, and Santander, have pronounced in favour of the revolution. Marshal Serranno commands the land forces and Admirals Puizon and Topete the naval squadron of the insurgents. The exiled Generals, who have returned from the Canary Islands, have taken various commands. At Santander and other towns the busts of the Queen in the public places were knocked down. The Provisional Government, which has been established at Seville, is under the Presidency of Marshal Serranno, the Honorary President being Marshal Espartero. Andalusia and Estramadura are in the hands df the insurgents. An army of 20,000 men, under the joint com mand of Marshal Serranno and General Prim, is marching on Madrid. The President of the Cabinet is inclined to pro pose terms of negotiation, comprising the abdication of the Queen. Telegraphic communication and even postal com munication is difficult in consequence of the insur rection in the provinces. A general meeting of the Jockey Club was held at New market on Wednesday, the 23d September. A ballot took place for several candidates for the new rooms, after which Admiral bus retired. The Chairman mentioned to the meeting the applica tion which had been made to the Stewards by Mr. Pad wick, and read the answer which they had agreed to send, as follows ; " The Stewards of the Jockey Club having received two letters from Mr. Padwick, the first calling upon them to inquire into certain imputations cast on him with refe rence to circumstances which occurred on the late Derby and St. Leger, and the second explaining that he wished to come before them as the accused, not the accuser, have fully consi lered the whole correspondence submitted to them, and find that they have no case before them, no complaint having been made to them affecting the charac ter of Mr. Padwick. (for the Hon. Aden. Eons)." The above was approved without discussion, and the meeting adjourned. HORSES STRUCK °Ul' OF THEIR ENGAGE MENTS.

On Monday evening she threw herself across the rails just as the Rugby train was arriving in the station, and was crushed to pieces. The deceased had of late shown symptoms of insanity, and the jury re turned a verdict of " Suicide while in an unsound state of mind." KENSINGTON IMPROVEMENTS.—An improvement is now being effected in Kensington, involving the demo lition of sundry blocks of buildings, to facilitate the pas sage of the traffic through the High-street of the " Old Court suburb." On Tuesday 27 dwelling-houses and premises, situated in High-street, Young-street, Market court, and Gardners'-buildings, forming a portion of the projected alteration, were disposed of by auction, and arrangements made for the immediate clearance of the ground to widen that great thoroughfare. IMPROVEMENTS IN THE I'EMPLE.—In the demoli tion of the old Middle Temple Hall and the aitnul taneous construction of the new building rapid progress is being made, as also with the projected alterations iu Crown-offize-row, Lamb-buildings, and Tanfield-court, and a new Gothic entrance is just completed to the trea surer's office. The roof of the old hall (now being re moved), said to be the bast piece of Elizabethan architec ture in Loudon, was built in 1572, and it is stated that the screen, in the Rena.iss.ince style, was made of the spoils of the Spanish Armada; but this is an error, as the records of the society prove that it was set up 13 years before the armada put to sea.

Liverpool Shrewsbury I Leamington Hunt THE WORKING CLASSES. The proceedings at tho late International Con gress of Workmen, where such strange theories were propounded, give peculiar interest to an article entitled Les Associations Ouvrieres en Angle terre, by Dr. Montucci, which has just appeared in the September number of the Revue Britannique. We glean from it th 3 following curious calculation, by which the author endeavours to show what the workman gains by contributing to a Trades Union : —Taking the most common case, that of wages ranging between 30s. and 40s. a week, suppose the workman to pay into the savings' bank the four shillings a week he now pays to the union. There his money will, at the lowest, produce three per cent. interest, payable every six months. As the workman gets nothing in that shape from his union, it is but fair to admit that, in the case under considera tion, he leaves his interest to accumulate in the savings bank. Now, calculating the produce of his capital at compound interest, with the regular weekly increase of four shillings, the workman, at the end of twenty years, will find himself in pos session of a sum of £3BO. Allowing for illness and other mishaps, let it be £3OO. Now it is clear that with such a capital at command, a shop may be opened, some profitable business or other may be carried on by the wife, while the husband, not older than 50, perhaps, at the time, earns his wages as usual at his master's establishment, with the certainty of having secured comfortable means of living for his old age. Comparing this hypo thetical state of things with the real one, the author of the article shows that the workman who contri butes to the Union fund at the end of 20 years has nothing ; that, by belonging to the association, he oses not only the £lO a year to which his sub scription amounts, but also on an average three mouths' work per annum, in consequence of strikes and other direct or indirect interference with the regular course of business ; so that his means are reduced to £72 per annum, instead of £llO, as they would be in the former case.
