The very* homely but necessary consideration of bow to provision our households has of late occu pied a prominent position among social problems. The high prices of every kind of necessary, most especially of bread and meat, have rendered the weekly bills a formidable trouble to all ordinary householders, and the annoyance of paying about double the amount formerly required has been enhanced by the mortification of knowing that a good share of the extra money goes into the pockets of the shopkeepers. No one be grudges the retail dealer a fair profit, but it has become painfully evident that his profits are some thing more than fair. Hitherto there has been little practical remedy for the grievance. Wealthy men at the head of large establishments could in deed go to the large markets Citywards and give wholesale orders, but the great majority of the non-shopping community, the hard-working, professional classes, to whom time is money, and whose housekeeping is on a very extensive scale, have been completely at the mercy of the retail dealers in, their immediate vicinity. The dis tance of all the great markets from most of the suburban districts have rendered it virtually im possible for them to become the direct sources of supply to the outskirts of the metropolis, yet where there is little or no competition we know that high prier s are inevitable. The populous suburbs to the, north of London are therefore greatly indebted to the energy and enterprise of the publin-spirited individuals who set on foot the project of the mar ket at King's Cross. Formally opened yesterday, it was visited by numbers anxious to ascertain its style and character, and it will inaugurate, we hope, a new and more effectual system of provi sioning the metropolis. The market is most fortu nately situated with regard to the great railway lines, and holds the key of the communications all over the kingdom. Opening on the St. Pancras road, it has on one side of it the new station of the Midland Railway, and on the other the Great Nor thern Terminus. The new line of the Great Midland caries the traveller right up the north-west of Lon don, and affords a cheap and ready mode of access to the populous districts lying at the foot of Highgate and Hampstead hills. The Underground Railway, again, is in close vicinity, so that. with the aid of the three lines of railway, north and south, east and west, in fact all the points of the compass are in direct communica tion with the market. The proximity of the rail way lines is highly important in another point of view. They will bring the supplies to the market from the north of England, and make a valuable addition to its mercantile advantages. The Great Northern Railway will bring fish from the north eastern ports to King's-cross at an interval of a few hours. Yesterday the market was inaugurated by the public sale of a pad of fish, brought by the Great Northern from Hull in the afternoon, , after being alive i n th e sea t h at morn i ng. This will make the new market another Billingsgate without the drawbacks of the old fish market, and the saving in the transit and other ways will enable the dealers to sell it even cheaper at King's-cross. At first there was some opposition on the part of the old dealers, but they were not long in perceiving the advantages it offered them. It is estimated that one-third of the whole of the fish sent to Billingsgate pass by King's-cross, en route, and as the stoppage at the earlier station is estimated at no less than 2d. per cent., it is evident that there can be no loss to the dealer. But the great advantage which the stall holders at the new market have has yet to be men tioned. It is entirely free from all rates, dues, and taxes whatever. The rent of the stall is in itself extremely moderate, but would be moderate if it were as much again, for it comprehends every charge except gas, which of course forms a separate account. The dealers in Covent Garden have long grumbled, not without reeason, at the buidensome tolls, while at all other markets some charges are levied in one form or another on the dealers. The conveniences are very great, the stalls being open to the roof, and each 10 feet deep and 14 wide. The rent of them is only 14s. a week, and there are 86, all of which are already let. The market occupies about double the area of Billings gate, standing on an area and a quarter of ground. It Lis plainly and substantially built, and offers • Behind very practical advantage to the occupicro, Baron BEUST has thought it necessary to come .orward and appease the excitement which prevailed at Vienna. The closing banquet took place in connection with the meeting of the German Rifle Association, and the Baron was present and spoke with great significance. He declared he had be come a good Austrian and still remained a good German. Having laid down these premises, he proceeded to show that there was great necessity for preserving peace, and this was in fact the ob ject he invariably pursued in his policy. Further more, he added that Austria had no desire to meddle in German affairs, and did not wish for a policy of revenge. The toast he proposed in con clusion was " Peace and reconciliation, the bases of progress, the guardians of a healthy freedom, and the pillars of order and security." This is all very well, and nothing can gainsay it ; but it would have been more prudent, and also more satisfactory, if the Baron had abstained from making some of his earlier comments. In his desire to put a stop to the awkward use that might arise from the too outspoken declarations of the meetings that pre ceded this final one he evidently overdid himself. He has gone out of his way to utter things that can scarcely be said to have foundation, and will cer tainly give offence to those who had been winding themselves up in the belief that a day of restitution was at hand. It is certainly true that revenge can do no good, and that " Sodawa" cannot be retraced, but still it is going a great way to affirm that matters must rest as they are, because Austria does not wish to have a change, not because she deems one at present to be inadvisable or impractictable. It does not require a great stretch of imagination to comprehend the bitter disappointment which this speech of Baron BEUST must have occasioned to those present, and who, it will be remembered, had bean expressing themselves most warmly on the subject of their deputation, and the curtailment of the rights of Austria. At any rate it is certain that if the House utters such sentiments just now, it would have been more politic and more conside rate for him to have given a hint to the fiery spirits who had assembled to give vent to their feelings, as much as to effect the ostensible object of their meeting. Baron BEUST might just as well have spoken the first day as the last of the meetings, and thus interposed a check on the somewhat ex travagant assertions made by the riflemen. It is evident that they had gone rather too far, but what they did in one direction he did the other, and the consequence has been anything but satisfactory. It is idle to think that Berlin will be taken in by their grandiloquent assertions of satisfaction, while at the same time the irritation felt in South Germany will be great, and cannot fail to produce an awkward ness in the public mind there. Austria constrained by circumstances to fill an inferior position is one thing, and Austria declaring through the mouth piece of her representative that she is content to fill that inferior position is another, and we cannot but regret in the best interests of the country that such a blunder should have ever been made. No doubt by this time the Baron may repent his too precipitate language, but he can neither recall it nor efface its consequences. No one ex pected that anything was to be done at once to reinstate Austria, but still no necessity existed for this backward step, and it is, indeed, a .most unfor tunate affair altogether. Better would it have been if the Rifle Meeting had not taken place at all than for the sentiments of freedom to have been permitted utterance only to be rudely repulsed and repudiated. We cannot accept Baron BUICST'S remarks as the definition of Austria's purposes, and the Government will now discern them practically, if not theoretically; but meanwhile they are an unfor tunate illustration of the evil wrought by - want of care, and show the mischief that arises from at tempting too much, and not putting a j ust con struction upon the effect of such sayings, a. truth that cannot be too often recommended. gill E 'SUN" NE WSPAPER.-G.

REMARKS. Atmospherical pressure has increased nearly three-tenths of an inch on ot:r southand west coasts during the preceding twenty-four hours. In the north of Scotland, however, readings are a little less, and pressure there is still low : between Nairn, where thtlowest is reported, and Rochefort there is a difference of 0191 n. Tereperature has not much changed. A gale from the S.W. blew last evening on the W. and S. coasts of Ireland and in the Irish Channel : it also brew a gale from the westward at Cape Cris Nez, which is reported as still continuing, but on our coasts the wind has moderated. It is now fresh and westerly in the S. of Ireland, where rain has fallen. In the north the weather Is fine, but in other districts it IS generally cloudy. The Liberty has received news from Berlin to the effect that an appeal has been addressed to the Prussian Govern ment by three hundred Germans, who have been enrolled in the Papal army. These recruits were arrested in the act of open desertion, and have been sentenced to the galleys for periods varying from three to fifteen years. The appeal states that the three hundred deserters had been deceived by promises, held out to them at the time of enrolment, which had not been afterwards adhered to. The intervention of the Prussian Government is implored. Saxony has declined the invitation of the Russian Government to take part in the military conference rela tive to the use of explosive bullets. The conference will open at St. Petersburg on the 15th of October, and the North German Confederation will be represented by Prusiia, only. The "submission" on the part of the smaller States is, of course, sneered at in France ; but it is perfectly in accordance with the principle on which the North German Confederation was folmed. By the terms of the Union Prussia was to have the command of the North German army, and the control in military affairs.

He was returned to the House of Commons, as a member for Rye, in 1807, and sat for that borough, and afterwards for Canterbury, until 1837. He was for nearly 14 years Chairman of Ways and Means in the House of Commons and from 1814 to 1827 was joint secretary to the Treasury. Dr. Lushington was Governor of Madras from 1827 till 1832, and published the "Life and Services of General Lord Harris," the conqueror of Seringa patam, whose daughter ho married. He was sworn a Privy Councillor in 1827, and was created an honorary D.C.L. by the University in 1839.

THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION. The arrangements of the British Association for the Advancement of Science in connection with its Norwich meeting have now made great progress. The first general meeting will be held in a building known as the " drill hall," erected for the local volunteer corps, on Wednesday the 19th inst., when the Duke of Buccleuch will resign the chair, and Dr. Hooker, the president of the year, will assume the presidency and deliver an address. The sectional meetings will be held on Thursday, August 20 ; Friday, August 21; Saturday, August 22 ; Monday, August 24; and Tuesday, August 25, The various sections will hold their meetings as follows :—Mathematical and Physical Science, Lady-lane lecture-room (president, Professor Tyndall) ; Chemical Science, Chapel-in-the-Field School (president Professor Frankland) ; Geology, Mr. Noverre's room (president, M. R. A. C. Godwin Austen) ; Biology, the Friends' Meeting (president, the Rev. J. M.

On Thurs day evening, August 20, a soirée will be held in St. Andrew's Hall, and on the following evening a discourse will be delivered in the drill-hall by the Rev. J. Ferguson, F.R.S., on "The Archmology of Early Bhuddist Monu ments." On the Monday evening a discourse will be delivered in the drill-hall by Mr. W. Odling, on "Reverse Chemical Actions ;" and on the Tuesday evening there will be another soirée in St. Andrew's Hall. The con cluding general meeting will be held in the drill-hall on Wednesday, August 20. THE 'WESLEYAN CONFERENCE AT LIVERPOOL. The business of the Conference was resumed on Friday. A letter was read by the secretary of the conference from the young men ordained at Grove street Chapel, expres sive of their high appreciation and thankfulness for the charge delivered to them by the ex-president, the Rev. J. Bedford, and also requesting that it be printed. The Rev. Charles Prest moved a vote of thanks to the ex president, and urged the request of the newly-ordained ministers. The resolution was seconded by the Rev. W. Shaw, and supported by the Rev. J. Hargreaves, chair. man of the Liverpool district, and carried unanimously. A vote of thanks to the Rev. W. Arthur, M.A., for his excellent charge delivered to the newly-ordained ministers at Pitt-street Chapel, was adjourned on account of his unavoidable absence from the Confe rence. It was recommended and carried, that in sonic rare instances a fourth year should to granted to young men in the theological institutes. It was passed that Hugh Price Hughes should be so returned this year. The secretary announced that the Rev. Morgan Griffiths, superintendent minister, had died. The expediency of holding two ordination services each year in the future was briefly discussed, and it was resolved that two should be held, and that the proximity to the presidential chair should rule as to the delivery of the charge. It was requested that the Revs. A. Barrett and W. Shaw should each have an assistant minister. It was reported that the total number of ministers in the Methodist societies of Great Britain was 342,380—an increase of 5,310. THE DOVER MURDER. The warrant for the execution of the culprit Thomas Wells, for the murder of Mr. Walsh, the station-masterat Dover, was received by Major Bannister on Friday, and was read over to the condemned man, who received the announcement with great composure. At half-past seven the same morning the Holy Communion was administered to him by the Rev. W. F. C. Fraser, the chaplain. On Thursday he was visited by his father, two sisters, two aunts, and the youdg woman with whom he kept company. The interview was very painful and distressing, the culprit being the only one who maintained anything like fortitude. The scaffold has been erected on a level with the ground, the earth being excavated beneath to admit of the drop. The execution— the first under the Execution Within Prisons Bill—will be held, in accordance with the Act, within the gaol, at half-past ten on Thursday morning, when a black flag will be raised on the wall of the prison, over the old scaffold, when the bolt is drawn. After the body has been suspended an hour it will be cut down, when the flag will fall. A coroner's inquest will be held on the body within twenty four hours, and the verdict of the jury will be posted on the gates of the gaol, In future the capital sentence will be inflicted on Monday, instead of Thursday, as heretofore. It is announced in a Belfast journal that Mr. blekens will make a " farewell visit " to that town during the autumn, and "read" in the Ulster Hall. Messrs. Day and Co., the iron shipbuilders at Northam, near Southampton, have received an order to build a monster steamer for the Royal Mail Company.

Notwithstanding the heat of the weather the theatre was crowded. CONSCIENCE MONEY.—The money remitted to the Chancellor of the Exchequer by sundry persons for conscience sake in the financial year 1867-68 amounted to £4,688. In the preceding year repentance produced a larger sum, £5,087, which was more than the Chancellor's salary. The following is a specimen of Western eloquence :—" Where is Europe, compared with America? Nowhar ! Where is England ? Nowliar ! They call England the mistress of the sea, but what makes the sea? The Mississippi makes it, and all we've got to do is to turn the Mississippi into the Mammoth Cave, and the English navy will be floundering in the mud !" The Commons are not treated with much consideration when they make their appearance in the Upper House. The peers do not even rise when the Lords Commissioners enter the House, and are seated clueing the ceremony of prorogation ; the Commissioners wear their hats ; but Mr. Speaker, the First Minister of the Crown, and the rest of the Commons have to stand at the bar all the time. The only acknowledgment of their presence is at the entry of the Speaker, which is the signal for an interchange of bows between the right honourable gentleman and the Commissioners. These bows used to be three in number ; at the last prorogation they were cut down to one. The clerks at the table utterly ignore the Commons, acting, no doubt, upon ancient precedent and practice. The Clerk of . the Crown continues bowing at intervals to the Lords like a Chinese Mandarin, but studiously turns his back on the Commons. On the last occasion the mem bers of the Lower House stood at the bar for - nearly an hour, the Serjeant-at-Arms with the mace on his shoulder, Secretaries of State and members of the Cabinet hustling each other like boys at a show. When the Queen opens or prorogues Parliament in person, the scramble for a place at the bar turns the House of Lords into a bear-garden. The Commons might demand better treat ment and accommodation, with the terrible threat a tte.PPing the kopplies as their ultimatum. 41; Tann ilirtUbt HER MAJESTY. PARIS, August 6.

I need not say the mode of producing poultry is one well worthy of attention, because we find that fowls weighing 41b might be produced just as easily and a 4 cheaply as fowls weighing only 21b each, if attention were paid to having good breeds, such as the Dorkiug, Cochin , wad the best French breeds, with the Malay crossed with the Essex or Lincolnshire fowls. I find that the fowl. which have been sent into Lincolnshire and Yorkshir e (from whence we get large supplies) have completely changed the breeds ; thirty years ago they were quit e , small, and now th e y are l arge an d fi ne. Thi s wa s all brought about about by Charles Clarke of Boston, who bought the best stock and gave away the eggs to the farmers and co.tagers. In Essex, likewise, the quantity of poultry is kept up, whilst in Norfolk, some parts of Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, and other counties, poultry bad gone completely out of cultivation, in consequence of the absorption of commons and waste lands, as well as that small cottagers are not allowed to produce poultry ; whilst the English farmers' wives and daughters have forgotten the habits . of their ancestors, in sad contrast t o the French farmet•S' wives, whose greatest pride is their dairy and their poultry. The stiggestion I would make would be simply this whe. e there are cottagers and small farmers the gen tlemen in the immediate neighbourhood should find a suppli of good stock, and then distribute the eggs for breeding purposes, the cost of which could not be more than ss. o r 10s., s and by that means the recipients would do as they have done in Sussex, where a very large quantity of chickens is raised all the year round, in the district of lieathfield, in a radius of about 20 miles ; during the next three months we shall have sent to London, fore that part of the country, £l,OOO worth a week, which will show what can be done by industry and method• The supply for London is of very great importance, be cause we must not only consider that thorn are 3,000, 000 of people to supply food to here, but we al,o suPP I I a radius of 50 or 60 miles round London when our Or plies are above the demand for home consumption in con sequence of the railways being so accessitle. That is no t the case inlFrance ; the poultry, nearly all, go to Paris, and there is hardly any demand in other towns. In this country the supplies are required constantly. At Brighton and all round the south coast, especially at Oxford An d Cambridge, as well at other large towns, it is not likely the price will decrease, as a more general use would, I am per suaded, lead to an unlimited consumption. I have recently paid a visit to South Wales, and I find that in some parts the cottagers and small farmers are increasingly producing poultry, and this ought to be established through th e length and breadth of Ireland. By the plan I propose I think we could introduce a nesv mode of breeding and feeding poultry, Thus, chicken/ two or three months old, will fatten in 7, 14, or 21 days/ at a cost of 4d. or Gd. per week. Ido not think there IS possibility of raising any kind of vegetable so quickly 36 that, so as to produce a fat article out of a lean one in about 7or 14 days. The way in which the people round about Heathfield, Cuckfield, Uckfield, and other par t° of Sussex, have improved within the last ten yeare is marvellous ; and they now make from 3s. 6 d* to ss. 6d. for chickens not more than three mont h° old. The chief point is the labour, the only expense there can be in rearing, until they get ab ou t t wo mon ths old , which should be by the sid e o f a h e d ge , or w h ere there f 0 grass, which cannot cost more th an l s. t o i s. 6d . ; s trong/ healthy, well-fed chickens are very soon fattened. I think that is a power of manufacture which is worthy of tae consideration of the country, as th e p ro fit mus t b e at leas° , from 50 to 75 per cent. The means of feeding aro simply these:—Barley or oatmeal ground fine, grease, fat, or suet mixed with it; new milk, or if not procurable, meat broth a mixed with it to the consistency of thick soup, administered twice or thrice daily for 7, 14, or 21 days. Fowls from four to six and nine months old should be fed on this food with the funnel, and kept in the dart on clean straw. All kinds of animals kept in the dark, en d quiet, always fatten quicker than when they have to° much roord or light; that is a very important part of the French system, to keep them in the dark. But what would wish to point out is this : the French fowls which are fed with a funnel are a particular breed—the Crevae sieur (Grevecceur ?), La Fleche, Le Mans, and Houdan ; small chicken would not bear the funnel to go down i ts throat. This class of fowl are now selling wholesale, la Paris, at from 6s. 6d. to 15s. each. I think it would be rather difficult to introduce this ssr tern of feeding by funnel at fi rs t amongs t f armers , as it 44 a process which requires s ome d ex t er it y an d pa ti enc e ; bit", it is very simple. To make a coop for twenty-four fovrit i l with a small trough, to be kept clean, to peck the cbi el f: ens (as they do in Sussex) f or seven or fift een days, what any one could undertake. The chickens must onif have food enough to fill themselves full ; then they oil be kept in the dark, and quiet. The food must be Ills ° into a consistency similar to soup ; boiled eggs are solve times given to them during the last two or three daft and as fowls well fattened fetch such a price, it is W°r t " . while to bring them to the highest perfection. I b a l r : never seen such fowls in Engl a nd a s I saw i n the pad market and the Palais R o y a l, eac h we i g hi ng 10110. °.," 141b5., which fowls were eight or ten months old. They must be large to be fed with the funnel; while °bicker°, from ten weeks to four mo n th s o ld h ave thi s s p ec ial foa c ' in coops (holdin g tw e l ve t o twenty-four each), provid e . d with troughs which must be daily cleared. There is difference, of course, between a chicken fattened in t bie way and fowls fattened for any special purpose, as is do with a funnel. Our own supply of poultry can be only increased bi giving plots of land to farm labourers, stimulating t iihe cottagers and small farmers to breed and fatten. poult r i s ; for, wherever it is mixed and crowded t o g e th e r, disease' sure to follow, and it is impossible to produce them to ac i vantage. I am quite certain that the supply of poult r i might be increased at least ten, and the eggs at least Ofti t i fold, and when you seriously consid e r th o ma tter you Yf ih see how important this is. I do not know how map,, cattle there are in this country ; but when you come - fowls you can count them by millions, and then if you if; crease the weight of each fowl which is eaten by a l i t ," half a pound, you will see what an important effect 9 ° ,1 : produce. But that is putting it at the very lowest 1) 041 1' ; by properly breeding and feeding fo w l s , th e w eight 0 ," be increased, not half a pound, but from 11b. to 2lbse cording to the breed and the system adopted. W it ; respect to poultry, therefore, I earnestly con" respect it is the duty of the people of this cet liD „"'d who have at heart the true interests of the industrial ft- tc , working classes, not only to give them a good cottage, live in, and a small piece of ground to cultivate, but Po o to give them a brood of two good fowls, which W ° ,/ answer the purpose of a bank. This would be a ha el) e the best kind, because the children can so much inap r° "4 it. It is watchful labour which is particularly reggirsa to produce poultry, and we should then find, as is WT I on the continent, that where people have this oppot til ,„% i l a of employing their time, and their children, it makes ce careful and saving. But it is of the utmost imports ta:o to have a good breed. 1 take this matter up, not onli a matter of business, but from benevolent motives• gl oo engaged now as a guardian of the poor, and I hale au always connected with associations for the Pr3c;n-o benefit of industrial populations, especially the ag, rl ; o o tural labourer; and I have been much interested in V i A t he Girdlestone's project for improving the condition e'foijc agricultural labourer, especially as I come from I%l° ). f ree d myself. I feel that if the method of improving th e ":bie of poultry were put before the people, it would en _let them to help themselves ; and that is really th e Too satisfactory way of helping them. I have been infertile tick one district where the breeding o f p o ult r y has been 1 increased, the poor rates have sensibly ditninishee should not be afraid to go before any body of W u convince them that here is a kind of El Dorado, "t uout should be very happy t o s h ow th em h ow to 'wor k I , practically. In conclusion, I would say that if have stated could be p r i n t e d an d p u t b e f o re the Pu'lo-,c,,a would be of the grea t es t p oss ibl e a d van t a ge, as it is go!' to be in many parts of our own county, is 13elgitit(40 apd laud, Normandy, and many other parts of F l - 1°4 ' 11 ;00 1 wherever there is conceded to the industrial ag ric )d orY poor some advautag,, such as th e keeping oi . i bo ugh t would be considered, these habits of economy au '1 00 14 would insure the surest pledge of order and virtue ~ any people.
