SMITIFfi camclga Stores," 76, Park-street, Camden to wn A return recently issued by the Poor-Law Board contains some valuable statistics to guide us in our legislation for our vast army of paupers. It shows us that in England and Wales, exclusive of the metropolis, there were on the Ist of July, 1867, no less than 96,079 paupers in the workhouses. Even allowing for the long continued depression of trade, which has naturally pressed heavily on the poorer classes, the high prices of provision during the last two years, and other exceptional causes of distress, the amount of pauFerism among us is something startling. It is surely worth while to inquire what class of persons furnishes the larger pro portion of inmates, and how it is that they are sufficiently wanting in self-respect to prefer the miserable dependence of the pauper to the honest industry of the working man or woman. The first figures which meet us on our analysis are somewhat surprising. Of these 96,079 paupers, 3,060 of the men and 9,200 of the women were able-bodied, or, in other words, just about one-eighth of this large mass of poverty should have been self-supporting, and the remaining seven-eighths were thrown upon the charity of their fellows for support by sick ness, old age, infancy, imbecility, or other causes beyond their own control. We were most of us aware from frequent reiteration of the fact by persons who have made it their business to explore these prison-like hospitals that the term workhouse had become a misnomer, but probably few were actually acquainted with the real state of the case. Of the adults included in the grand sum total, 46,853 were not ablebodied, 8,372 were lunatics and imbecile; 36,966 were children under 16, 29,178, or nearly one-third of the whole of the in mates,were on the medical relief books, and of these more than 4,000 were acute cases. Nearly 7,000 more were aged and infirm, and 9,935 were chronic cases, while 6 more required extra diet only. On the Ist of last January another census was made, when the numbers were of course proportionately higher than in the previous July. There were then in our English workhouses 119,905 persons; 7,373 of the men, and 12,510 of the women being able-bodied ; 56,764 adults were not able-bodied ; 8,754 being imbecile or lunatic ; 43,278 were children under 16. The same sad items figure in the list—age and infirmity, chronic disease, fever and zytnotic cases, and cases requir ing extra diet only. With these statistics before us we may well ask whether our whole workhouse system is not based upon a mistake; and whether, when we pride ourselves upon the excellence of our free hospitals, we are sufficiently mindful of the vast army of sufferers in mind and body who drag out their dreary days within the walls of the parish workhouse. Every humane man would shrink from the thought of neglecting or ill-using the helpless and suffering ; but neglect and ill usage are too common unless more than ordinary vigilance is exercised. One radical fault is the sys tem of pauper nursing. The able-bodied females in the workhouses are, as a rule, most unfavourable specimens of their class. Some of them, of course, are driven there by stress of misfortune, by the care of a family, &c. ; but very often they are drunken and degraded, and very willing to ac cept the office of nurse for the sake of the extra allowance, the better rations, and other small advantages. One of these women takes charge of a whole ward, containing perhaps forty or fifty beds. The best trained, most untiring, and expe rienced nurse might well fail to discharge her duties adequately in such circumstances, but a woman whose ignorance is only equalled by her indiffer ence is certain to neglect her charges. Yet many painful cases of lingering and chronic disease, of crippling rheumatism, so common among the poor, of paralysis, of cancer, of bad legs, and a dozen other of the ills which flesh is heir to, are driven to the workhouse infirmary for shelter, and to them kind and skilful nursing offers the only chance of ease or alleviation. In many work houses the rules for admitting visitors are needlessly strict and exclusive, so that the sufferer's friends and relations, if he has any, are precluded from anything like attend ince upon him. In many places extra comforts are not allowed to be brought in, and where they are the pauper nurse is apt to take her tithe. Paid and duly qualified nurses are the first necessity among fifty thousand patients, not ablebodied, and their employment should no longer be kept optional to any board of guardians. We want in all these establishments The EMPEROR'S fete has passed off favourably, and this is fortunate under the circumstances, as anxiety prevailed in many quarters respecting public feeling. Although, strictly speaking, the 15th of August is not the fete of the present EMPEROR, it will always be looked upon as virtually so ; and the notion obtains favour from combining the recollec tions of the past with the associations of the pre sent. The illuminations in the evening of Saturday were most brilliant, and crowds thronged the Boulevards, enjoying the animated scene. Most fortunately the weather was favourable, and the rain held off till the night was advanced. 'The seasonable change was welcomed by those who had long suffered from the intense heat ; but, of course, general satis faction prevailed that the grand display of the pre vious day had not been spoiled by the adverse influence of unpropitious weather. So far as we can judge just now it appears that all has gone well. The EMPEROR has forwarded to the Marshal Commanding-in-Chief his acknowledgments of the services of those present at the review, and the gratification he felt at their soldierly appearance in the field and their fine attitude ; and, as in duty bound, the Marshal has hastened to communicate the felicitous intelligence to the different corps. It is said that the regular army cheered the EMPEROR more unanimously than did the National Guard; but this may be merely supposition, and, at any rate, nothing appeared on any side calculated to convey an unfavourable impression of the feelings of those present. The appearance of the troops was magni ficent, and if a stray observer was present de puted by Count BISMARCK to watch the proceed ings ho may return to tell the tale of French brilliancy in military matters in language otherwise than pleasant to his interlocutor. The usual acts of grace have been performed, and commutations of punishment have been granted to the soldiers in military prisons, and to convicts in penitentiaries and other correctional establishments. The day was kept as a strict holiday, and the Bourse, with other public offices, was closed. The Minister of Finance has reported to the EM PEROR the extraordinary success of the subscription to the loan. This is indeed surprising, and must reassure the most wavering minds as to the stabi lity of the present Government. Nearly thirty four times the sum required has been furnished. The Minister declares that, without exaggeration, it may be affirmed that the mast favourable conclu sions may be drawn from these "really extraordi nary figures." Austrian affairs also seem flourishing, notwith standing some attempts that have been made most unaccountably to prejudice her cause in the eyes of Europe. Baron BEUST is a wise statesman, and will not suffer misconception to arise because of some hasty or unguarded expressions on the part The only ships belonging to the Ch anne l squa d ron which put into Plymouth Sound on Saturday were w L s a t m ea b ra ert, and the gunboat corvette Pallas, 6, the Captain armour-platedEdward ft s cGr . a Pigeon, tender to the Minotaur.

When some unimportant defects in the machinery of the Pallas are made good she will follow her consorts. On Saturday 70 non-commissioned officers and sappers of the Royal Engineers, under the com mand of Captain J.Y. Magnay and two subalterns, proceeded from headquarters, Brom pton barracks, Chatham, to Milton, for the purpose of going through a course of ball practice at the Govern ment rifle range. Lieut.-Colonel is under orders to jointhe garrisona Pp t i lv o o n o , w _RA., i•h on n the Ist of Sept., and to do duty with the Depot Brigade at head quarters, in place of Lieut.-Colonel Newton who has been appointed to the Royal Horse Artillery, and has proceeded to Leeds. Lieutenant E. Stephens, Royal Engineers, has been ordered to proceed from head-quarters, Chat ham, to Aldershott, to carry out a course of mus ketry instruction with the corps. Captain Thornhill's battery, 11th brigade, field battery, R.A., which marched into the garrison at Woolwich on Wednesday last, was inspected yes terday morning by Major-General E. C. Warde, C. 8., the commandant. _ The remaining detachment of the mounted A troop of the Royal Engineer train arrived at Chat ham yesterday from Aldershott, and took up camp ing ground at Wouldham, near Rochester, where th ey are to undergo a course of pontooning instruc tion. The total strength of the troop is four officers, nine sergeants, 17 corporals, two buglers, and 158 artificers and sappers, with 139 horses, and 20 pontoon waggons. Lieut. Ernest Rice was on Saturday appointed to the Asia. A letter from Casablanca, Morocco, in the Sema phore of Marseilles, says Here there is no case of cannibalism to d e pl ore; b u t what suffering and misery these poor people have had to undergo! The principal cause, in my opinion, is that the exporta tion of cereals is at all times absolutely prohibited, and, further, they cannot be transported by sea from one point of the coast to another, as the removal by land is costly and very difficult the grain forcedly rests at the place of its production. A large num ber of rich proprietors of the interior have opened silos (trenches to hold corn cut in the ground), which had been closed and almost forgotten for 10 or 12 years. The wealth of the Moors consists first of the possession of numerous deposits of that kind filled with wheat, and next of silver five franc pieces, which they inter in the ground. At the 'mice which corn attained last winter these people have realised sums relatively enormous, but the new harvest has not arrived any too soon, al everything was exhaulted—everything was consumed, even the wheat which was almost uneatable from being under ground so long. You will easily understand how many victims the cholera would make amongst so suffering a population. The ravages of the scourge, which may be called the epidemic of hunger, are therefore beyond all proportion with what takes place in Europe in similar cases. Casablanca, which is only a small place, the inhabitants of which are ustimated at 2,000 or 3,000, lost hi fifty days about one-fourth of its number. A curious story is told by the Berlin correspondent of the Daily News. A few days ago, he says, a stranger named Leroi put up at the principal hotel at Hersfeld, a little town half•way between Cassel and Fulda. He described himself as a painter, of Paris ; but he was suspected, and finally watched by the police. It vas soon found that the " painter " was taking very exact sketches of the town and the neighbourhood. He was " visited," and it was then discovered that he was not only a painter, but also a French captain, and a member of the general staff. The landrath immediately took possession of all M. Leroi's papers, which he must have found a very inte resting study. Besides the numerous sketches, there were many extracts from works referring to military history ; also an exact memorandum of the houses of the town, the numbers of men that could be quartered in them, and notes for the best distribution of the cavalry and infantry. The landrath went to Cassel for instructions, and the Prussian General Plonski wished to have the culprit forwarded to that city under escort. But the landrath, though evidently a shrewd man, must also be a good• natured one, for at his representations the' general gave up his more wrathful intentions, and M. Leroi was allowed to escape on giving a written promise to return to France without loss of time. A correspondent of the Libcrti sends a strange medley of uncertainties. It is reported that the infant daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Montpensier is dead ; but this requires confirmation. There is talk of a rising in Arragon, but no details of the same. Troops have been sent out in various directions, but it is impossible to learn their destination. This is a cheerful and essential'y a Spanish state of affairs. It seems pretty certain that there is trouble and danger of some kind in the Peninsula, though its extent and precise nature are altogether enigmatical. It is not at all clear that the Government is even temporarily free from its troubles. The protest of the Duke and Duchess of Montpensier against the order which has condemned them to exile denies altogether the assertion that their names have been made the war-cry of insurrection. Their influence, their Royal Highnesses allege, is not sufficiently great to render them the head of a party ; and they do not hesitate to suggest that the evils wli"c 1 ). afflict Spain have been caused by those who occupy a higher position than they. Now, as the Queen is really the only personage who ranks higher than her sister and brother-in-law, this allusion to the errors of her Majesty is direct. The Duke an 1 Ducher s also declaim vigorously against those councillors who,whilst professing to allow them free choice of residence, have secretly intrigued with the Portuguese Government to prevent them residing in Portugal. The correspondent of the Post announces that the insur gents have been beaten in several encounters, and the revolution market is therefore dull and declining. He, however, adds that two leaders have each 4,000 men under his command, and that the Government has to employ one-fifth of its entire army against these insurgent forces. The " reconciliation" between President Juarez and the P, pe excited great interest in the peace - ul and clerical empire. The letter of the Pope has not teen publi,ihe 1, but the writer has no doubt that one was receiv«l, " and that six new bishops will soon arrive here, sent by the Holy Father to look after the sadly-stricken Church." The writer adds, that a l l Mexicans ale nominally Catholics, and Juarez himself has long been sail to suffer from remorse at the thought of the wounds which he has inflicted on the Church ; but this repentance cannot be very deep, as only a few days :Igo he permitte 1 the church of San Andreas to be demolished, because, on the occasion of the anniversary requiem mass raid within its walls for the repose of the soul of Maximil'an, the congregation were too earnest in their manifestations of sorrow at the fate of the late Emperor. Ihe demolition of the :church was commenced at night by a detachment of soldiers, and has been since continued, until only a few stem of the ecli4vt__Agiv •_remain; SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS, ~:'.~w The Tines says that while all the friends of Ireland are fondly believing that they see the very dawn of order, peac6, and goodwill, a terrible incident seems to throw us back half a century. It has scarcely a parallel in its cha racter, its manner, and its results. A landlord, with his bailiff, a labourer, and, as it turns out, the insufficient escort of four policemen, serves notices on some of Isis tenantry, and encounters a hostile population, content, at first, to use threats, abuse, and barricades. Against the warn ing of the police he proceeds to a farm which has been loop holed, fortified, garrisoned, and armed for defence ; with some of his party he enters the farmyard, and is imme diately met with a murderous fire. It is literally murderous, for the object is not merely to resist, but to slay ; and one poor fellow is shot while lie stoops to lift up a wounded comrade. The slain policeman is found riddled with bullets. Mr. Scully has received several severe wounds. The verdict of the jury upon the bodies of the murdered men is no more than was to be expected under the circumstances. It admits that they were murdered by Mr. Scully's tenants, which o' course it was impossible to doubt or deny ; but it shows no anxiety to fix on the vety hands that fired the fatal shots, and invokes the aid of the British Legislature to prevent any possibility of such collisions for the future. The proceeding which the jury deprecates was the service of a notice, and it is not easy to see how any business relations whatever can be conducted without regular forms of communication. A notice to quit may be a very disagreeable document, but even Irishmen would rather be served with it than suddenly and forcibly expelled without it. The jury had no wish to be involved in the quarrel, and if they did not know who had fired the fatal shots at Ballycohey, they knew very well who would be disposed to shoot them if they made themselves disagreeable. It was not neces sary in the interests of justice that they should say more than they did, and as the facts were difficult to handle, they took refuge in the legislative aspiration. The Daily News remarks of the Tipperary murder that it is no new secret organisation which has inspired this act of bold defiance of the law—it is simply the old open feud, of Irish society. It is no fresh kindling of a flame, but a flash from the ever smouldering embers of an ex tinguished fire. It merely shows that the same evils still exist, and that so long as the present relations between Irish landlords and Irish tenants remain unchanged, so long will agrarian murders continue to redden the soil of the Emerald Isle. The law put itself in armed antagonism to the people, and they armed to meet it. The Times ridicules the Protestant demonstration. The weather was unfavourable, and the affair was a flash in the pan. Lord Fitzwalter forgot the Irish Church for the subject of Ritualism. Indeed, according to him, the issue before the nation at the coming election is to choose between the Queen and Mr. Mackonochie. There is some thing in this adaptation of the old dilemma, the Queen or the Pope, which may suggest a want of novelty in the idea ; but all other considerations are lost in our surprise that Lord Fitzwalter should hope to secure from the present Government the exemplary punishment of Ritualists. The faith of Lord Fitzwalter and of those who agree with him must be great. Mr. Disraeli is, indeed, as we all know, an ardent anti-Ritualist. Did he not reveal to the House of Commons—a House sceptical and some what scandalised, it is true—a conspiracy such as many excellent women had long believed in, but were never quite certain about until they thus got the word of the First Minister of the Crown upon which to rely ? The Times recommends the Protestants to ally themselves with the Radica's. HER MAJESTY. PENSION WALLIS, LUCERNE, August 15.

Governor Warmouth, in his appeal for the aid of the national troops to suppress lawlessness in Louisiana, states that armed bands of desperadoes are murdering, plundering, and persecuting the Unionists in several parishes, having committed 150 murders within two months, and are further more organising to drive the Union men from the State. A Democratic member of the Louisiana Legisla ture has introduced a resolution declaring Governor Warmouth's statements false, and calling upon hint to furnish proofs of their accuracy. The Post thinks the "demonstration" affords matter for congratulation, not only to the speakers, who thus found an unlimited opportunity for airing their views—or rather their sentiments, for they nowhere rise to views— but also to the nation at large, which is thus put in possession of those sentiments, and is enabled to appreciate the sort of attitude taken in defence of them. From beginning to end the whole pro ceedings amounted to nothing more than a terrific shaking of the red rag which has already more than once frightened John Bull out of his propriety. The Act of Settlement, the Bill of Rights, the British Consti tution, and our wives and daughters, were all knocked over like so many ninepins, and at the end of the affair the Pope of Rome was the only creature left standing in the field engaged in organising a ritualistic Te Deuns to celebrate the forcible conversion of Mr. Whalley, the burning alive of Lord Fitzwalter, and the final extinction of Protes tanti; na. The Star reminds us that the Throne of England rests upon a wider and more secure Las's than the support of a few Orange fanatics. The loyalty of the people does not depend upon the exact meaning which antiquated theolo gians may attach to the Coronation Oath. The safety of Protestantism may be secured upon other conditions than seemed g - orl to William 111. The Constitution is not fixed to the formulas of 1688, or limited to the measures which were passed by the Parliaments of that day. The world grows older in spite of us, new con ditions arise requiring altered policies, and monarchs, parliaments, or parties who fail to appreciate these very elementary principles of political science arc generally reminded of them in a very rude and effectual way. The knot of harmless zealots who sputtered forth their eff ate doctrines are doubtless well meaning and loyal enough in their intentions. When they call upon the vast city to come at their bidding to help to defend the Throne, they doubtless imagine the monarchy to be in danger, the moment to be critical, and the newest of the peers the right man to prop everything up afresh for another century or so, by the utterance of Orange nostrums. If the Crown had no wiser advisers, the lease of life of the monarchy would be brief indeed. The Church they cannot harm, for it does not rest upon political arrangements and parliamentary settlements. The Church of England may so rest, and the Church of England in its political aspect is capable, doubtless, of receiving dangerous wounds in the house of its own foolish friends; but the Church of Christ existed before William 111., and will survive all the efforts which have been made to link her fortunes to the decaying and changing institutions of the world. The Herald is grateful to a Liberal contemporary for describing Mr. Gladstone's policy as no more limited to a purely Irish appl . caron " than a European war can be described as French." Quite so ; but if it was worth while to keep all this in the background up to the close of the session, 10 nesysus people by the promise that the English ( hut c'i sh ,uld be held sacred, where is the use of blurting out the truth on the eve of a general election ? Is it because it is now found that Churchmen are no longer to be hoodwinked as to the logical conse quences of Mr. Gladstone's policy, and that it is now thought advisable, as a Bernier rcssort, to bid heavily for the Anti-Church-and-State party ? At any rate we are properly grateful for this leisurely recognition of the accu racy of our first impressions, and we are tolerably confi dent that the frank confession of a truth long suppressed will exercise an influence upon those who are halting between two opinions, the reverse of that intended and desired by our contemporary. It may avail to appease "secularist impatience," but it will set the "thousands of electors " thinking very earnestly of the prospect opened out before the country by this " imperial policy," which begins with the destruction of the Church in Ireland. The Standard asks Mr. Childers to state his plan for reducing the expenditure. Would he reduce the army, or leave off building vessels likely to offer some resistance to the guns of the present day ? It is easy to talk about economy, but what expenses would Mr. Childers cut down ? He has been named for a seat in thelCabinet when ever a Whig Ministry comes into power again, and there fore he ought to be capable of suggesting a definite policy. His ideas upon the subject appear to be of as little practical value as those of Mr. Fawcett, who made a great outcry about diminishing the expendi ture, and when the time came for making proposals could do nothing better than recommend that no more money should be spent on the repairs of St. James's Palace, bu; that a building which has so many interesting historical associations should be allowed to go to ruin. Another economist of the same school proposed that Hampton Court Gardens should no longer be kept up, thus de priving the labouring classes of one of the most healthy and charming places of recreation open to them out side London. It would seem that Mr. Childers also belongs to the penny-wise and pound-foolish set og financiers. Two Democrats have been ousted from the Louisiana Legislature on the score of ine'igibility, and Republicans have been admitted to their seats. The House of Representatives of the Alabama Legislature has passed the bill previously carried through the Senate for removing all the political disabilities of citizens in that State without en forcing the test oath. The Democratic majority in Kentucky at tho last election is reported to have been over 85,000. Cattle plague has appeared in the Western States, and is spreading rapidly.

If the Tories are to have the nomination, why not leave to Mr. Disraeli the responsibility of the choice? And why on earth should we decide that Sir Stafford Northcote, or any other mild Conservative "illustration," is a fitter man? If we are to "open our mouth and shut our eyes," and take what Mr. Disraeli sends us, one Tory statesman is just as good es another, and, as Lord %layo's countrymen would say, " perhaps better." Ee,ddes, the outside public, easily able to see whether a man is a good speaker or a clove' adept at political trick, knows very little in the rival merits of administration of Mr. Disraeli's colleagues ; but he does. If, unbiassed by personal feelings —and in this case we see no reason to suspect any— he thinks Lord Mayo a better man for the post than other Conservative candidates, in all likelihood he is quite right.
