PERCY M. DOVE, Manager and Actuary. JOHN B. JOHNSTON, Secretary in London. August, 18684 MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. THE ELECTIONS. We have little else to chronicle to-day but the progress of the elections. •The standing topics of the recess have given way to election speeches—good, bad, and indifferent. Three " great guns " went off on Friday night. Messrs. Gladstone and Bright on the one hand, and Lord Stanley on the other. Mr. Gladstone does not seem to think it -beneath him to answer the absurd calumnies which have been circulated concerning him. Probably he antici pates such a hard battle in South Lancashire that he will not allow his opponents even one arrow, though it be pointless, to use against him. Mr. Bright, at Saltley, went over the old ground. It was, he said, a fight between the two principles—government by the few, and government by the many. The Tories wasted the national money. The Liberals wanted to do justice to Ire land. Lord Stanley, on Ireland, sets forth very forcibly the views of the Conservatives on the Irish questions, dissevered from the prejudices which surround the arguments of so many of the Constitutional speakers. THE MIDDLESEX ELECTION. Meanwhile, election squabbles continue to excite the interest of the several constituencies. Mr. Labouchere, the late member for Middlesex, seems to have become quite alarmed as to his chances for the county. The "revelation " which he made Just on the eve of the election was ill-timed and unneces sary. Most of the electors would have remained in " happy " ignorance of any great split, and would have voted right. But when they see the two can didates calling one another liar and sneak, the ques tion naturally arises—especially among the waverers —are these the men who should legislate for the country ? Mr. Labouchere writes to the papers urging on Lord Enfield to unite. " Lord Enfield considers himself and Lord George Hamilton to be what he is pleased to call ' scions of a noble stock.' I am a man of the mi ldle class. lie considers himself my superior. Let us agree to differ on this point. Unless we do unite, a Conservative will get in for Middlesex, although the Liberals are in a large majority. Either Lord Enfield will beat me by Conservative split-votes—for .I am proud to say not one Conservative supports me—or, RS the Liberals do not like the idea of two members beingreturned by Conservative votes, they may plump for me, and Lord Enfield will then lose his seat." Mr. Labouchere offers to put the whole matter into the hands of a committee. It should be added that Sir F. Pollock (late Lord Chief Baron) has an nounced his intention of voting for Lord Geom. Hamilton. PROPHECIES. The Conservative journals have very properly eschewed anything like definite prophecy. The Standard asserts that the Liberals can only be vic torious by the " supineness, the negligence, or the disunion " of the Conservatives. A long appeal to these follows, in which they are exhorted to desert everything in order that they may record their votes for the great principles of the Constitution, "the fabric of our national reli gion, the life of our English liberties." The Spectator still anticipates a majority of 100 for the Liberals,and the same is endorsed by all the Liberal journals. CARRIAGE OF VOTERS. A case has been put before Mr. J. D. Coleridge and Mr. Macnamara as to the effect of the 36th section of " The Representation of the People Act 1807." They consider that it prohibits the hiring of con veyances for voters in boroughs, except in the case of boroughs expressly mentioned in the Act. The mere hiring would not avoid the election, but would be an illegal payment. They say : "At the same time it must be borne in mind, that if the conveyance of a voter in such a case were made conditional upon his voting for a certain candidate, or in any way made part of the price for his vote, it would come within the definition of bribery, and avoid the election." Finally, they strongly advise candidates to abstain altogether from hiring conveyances for voters. PURITY OF ELECTION. Alas ! for purity of election. We had almost begun to congratulate ourselves that the days of bribery and corruption were over. But before we raising the paean, we have—and 'on the eve of the battle—ugly rumours about one constituency, and this not in lax England, but in strict Scotland ; not at the lower, but at the higher end of the scale. The London correspondent of the Elgin Courant says : " I hear that, which ever wa y th e e l ec ti on f or th e Universities of Aberdeen and Glasgow goes, there will be an attempt made to impugn the purity of the election. The Lord Advocate's supporters aver that they have a strong case as regards the associations who paid the fees, for other reasons, ostensibly, than political motives; and again, Mr. Moncreiff's friends assert that they are in possession of positive proof that a gentleman in Ireland, interested in Mr. Gordon's return, has been paying fees for medical graduates. cal graduates. It will assuredly be a very ugly affair if it should get the length of a petition, which appears inevitable, whichever side is victorious. Won't the Southerners crow over the corruption in a Scottish university constituency ? It is no reply to say the fee was a mistake." TWO IRISH PRELATES ON THE ELECTIONS. Cardinal Cullen has set a good example to the Protestant clergy by issuing . a pastoral, in which he calls upon the Roman Catholic electors of Ireland to avoid the immoderate use of intoxicating liquors during the elections, and expresses a hope that th e con tests may be conducted without a resort to bribery. The Cardinal reminds the constituencies of the many vital interests which are at stak e , an d points to every citizen to discharge faithfully " the duty which his reason and conscience dictate." He adds that " no lasting good can be secured by vio lence of any kind." The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Armagh, Dr. Kieran, has issued a pastoral t o hi s c l ergy i n L ou th , in which he exhorts them to use their influence to prevent the return of Mr. Preston for the county, and to support Mr. D ease . Th e Arch bishop says : " The question which is to b e decided in theimpending struggle is not a question between Mr. Dease and Mr. Preston, nor between Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Disraeli ; it is a question between the people of Ireland struggling to be placed on tr footing of equality with their Protestant fellow-coun trymen, and a ' miserable monopolising minority' fighting for the maintenance of an odious ascendancy. If the people of Louth return a Tory candidate at the approaching election, or permit such an event to take place, it is not Mr. Dease or Mr. Gladstone they will injure, but themselves and their children. They could not take a more fatal or suicidal course than lend any aid to a party who have never missed an opportunity of insulting the people of Ireland, and who will employ for the degradation of Catholics any power with which Catholics may help to invest them." THE IRISH CHURCH. "J. F. S." (Mr. J. Fitzjames Stephen) writes to the Pal/ Mall Otazette taarigesa tine conrso Adopted by n - W7R.11.' pirr: rte. rata= bone Greg), and to refute his arguments. He says that if the tithe rentcharges of the Church are a fund held in trust by the State for ecclesiastical pur poses, the State is guilty of a gross breach of trust in applying it to purposes regarded as positively wicked by the majority of the population. If the State is bound to look after the interests of a small congregation, on the plea that the fewer the number the less able they would be to maintain a clergyman, then, " J. F. S." says, the State is bound to provide for every little knot of Catholics scattered through England and Wales. Again :if a man cared so much about a clergyman that he would leave his estate or farm rather than go without one, he would provide one at his own expense rather than leave his estate ; and if he cares so little about his religion that he becomes a Catholic as soon as the State ceases to keep a Protestant clergyman to look after him, he is not much of a Protestant. As to " W. It. G.'s " objection that no one knows what it is proposed to do with the endowments of the Church, that is jumping before you come - to the stile. The strangest position of " W. It. G. " is, that though he disbelieves in the creed of the Church, he thin: s it has a prescriptive right given it by long existence. If " W. It. G." were a High Churchman, the writer could understand him ; but looking upon the Church as a creature of Parliament, it is strange that ho should wish to establish a vast clerical corporation, free from State control, and possessing a revenue counted by millions, to propagate what he considers a false creed. A FOX-HUNTER. North Leicestershire returns two members to Par liament. There are three candidates, all of them Conservative. These are quarrelling, not upon the great political questions of the day, upon which they are all probably -agreed, but upon a matter of far greater importance in Leicestershire. Mr. C. Hay Frewen—who, by-the-bye, cannot spell—writes to that magnate the head of the house of Manners, that if Mr. Clowes should be " draged " in to represent the foxhunting interest, the sooner fox hunting is put an end to the better, and that he (Mr. Frewen) and some of his friends will do their best to clear the country of foxes. He says that poor men were turned out of their land for voting for him in 1865, and he considers it monstrous to bring forward a man without property, who has been a fox-hunter for only a few years. If the Con servatives " loose " any more seats they will only have themselves to thank for it. To this letter, containing such reckless and horrible hints as to the crime of vulpecide, the Duke of Rutland replies that he cannot see what possible bearing the return of Mr. Clowes or Mr. Frewen can have on the subject of fox hunting. He is not aware that any poor man has ever been deprived of his land for the cause mentioned by Mr. Frewen, and will thank that gentleman either to furnish the name and address of the poor man in question, or to make no further unfounded insinu ations. Perhaps Mr. Frewen thinks that foxhunting cries are still fashionable in the House of Commons when an Opposition speaker is to be put down. These went out of fashion with cock-crowing and farmyard imitations, and honourable members have to content themselves with groaning and bawling, unless they wish to come under the unfavourable notice of Mr. Speaker. JACK TAR'S VOTE. We have given the sailor a vote. Certainly we should allow him to use it. And the Admiralty, happily, think so, and have delayed the sailing of the Channel Fleet, which was under orders to leave Ports mouth for Plymouth on Thursday, until after the election for members of Parliament for the borough, which will take place on Tuesday next. It has been argued, the Army and Navy Gazette remarks, that it appeared satirical to give " Jack " a vote, and then, when he had the opportunity of exercising his privi lege, to send him off to sea. SCOTCH QUEEN'S COUNSEL. An attack has been made on the Government for bestowing the rank of Queen's Counsel on some Scotch lawyers. There has hitherto been equality at the bar. The Law Times gives a satisfactory reason for the appointments. " When appeals from the Scotch courts come before the House of Lords it is usual to retain the advocate who was in the case in the court below. In practice inconvenience has been found to arise from the fact that as there are no Queen's Counsel in Scotland, the leading brief must always be given to an English barrister, so that the man who knows most about the matter is com pelled to play second fiddle. To remedy this, four gentlemen, selected equally from both parties, have just received silk gowns, which will render it possible to put them in the forefront of the forensic battle. should their clients so desire. There can have been no political motive in the promotion of these gentlemen." LONDON PERILS. There is an amusing letter in the Post, written from Belgravia by "in Unguarded Spinster," and honoured with leader type. The lady says she is a maiden of means, and possesses considerable attrac tions in the shape of trinkets, plate, &c. The news paper statements of police inefficiency had made her nervous lately. She had hoped that they were exagge rated, but she relapsed into horror the other morning at receiving a printed placard delivered at her house by a policeman in uniform. She is instructed that five modes of burglary may be efireetually prevented if due precautions are taken by the inmates. The modes mentioned are—entering with false or skeleton keys, especially on Saturday and Sunday evenings; passing through an adjoining empty house, and entering through attic windows ; removing insecure shutters ; calling at the house on pretended errands; and, lastly, by climbing up the portico and entering through the upper windows. The portico is too much for this spinster's peace of mind. She thinks of mantraps and spring-guns in the area and balcony, but she would prefer to come to an understanding with the robbers, and pay black-mail, thus adding a robber rate to a police rate. The " force of folly " in the Metropolitan Police Office "can nolurther go." If householders really have to turn their houses into garrisons, and take the law into their own hands, some of these burglars may have to regret that the negligence of the police encouraged them to undue confidence in their depredations. PAY FOR PILOTS. In the advances that have been made of late years, none have been more marked than the advances in the rates of wages and the prices of commodities of all kinds. It stands to reason, therefore, that Govern ment emplopfs and others with fixed salaries require that these should be raised, if it is necessary to maintain the old standard of position. Ap ropos t o this, rather a queer story is told by a correspon d en t of the United Service Gazette. The loss of the Devon and seventeen lives is still fresh in the memory of those who are accustomed to read the reports of wrecks. " The Devon," says the correspondent, "was a lighter of 154 tons register, her crew consisted of a master, mate, ten able seamen, and a boy ; she had on board a general cargo, consisting of dock and victualling-yard stores, and five passengers ; the value of shipand cargo wouldbe, I should suppose, from £lO,OOO to £12,000 ; the whole of this property and life was in the sole charge of two officers, both good men and respected by all. How were those officers paid ? lam informed that the master received 6s. and the mate 2s. per day. It really surpises one to hear that 2s. per day is the pay of an officer who has to assist the master in navigating a vessel from one port to another with a valuable cargo ; and what is of considerablymore importanceis, the master's and the seamen's lives are entrusted to the skill and judgment of the mate during his watch on deck. There are dangers besides rocks and sands a seaman has to avoid. What of collisions ? The danger of a collision is well known to your nautical readers, and is as fatal to life and property as any other danger. If I mistake not, the pay of able seamen in the War Department vessels is more than the pay of a mate in the dockyard craft, and seamen in one of the victualling-yard steamers under the Board of Admiralty are in receipt tif the same rate of pay as the mates of the sea-going dockyard lighters." A WORKHOUSE DOOR. " Effusion of serum on the brain " is the stereo.. typed verdict when a man is allowed to die of starva tion. A piteous tale has been told by Cecilia Bridges at an inquest in Bethnal-green upon the emaciated body of her husband. There were five of them in the family, earning altogether ss. a week. They had no meat for five months, and were glad to divide a herring amongst them. One evening the husband returned, and, throwing sixpence on the table, said he was dying of weakness, and that his sufferings were unbearable. His. wife urged him to go to the workhouse, and ho replied that last winter admission was refused him. His wife then applied at the workhouse. "Go and work " was the answer. "We have neither food nor fire," pleaded the woman. "We have plenty of these tales" was the reply ; and when she begged for a loaf of bread, she was turned away from the door. She, her husband, and three children, then lay down on the floor at! home. They laid there from Satur day evening till Sunday mid-day. One of the boys then went out, and borrowed three pence from another boy, to buy some bread. On. the Tuesday the man died, saying, " I have been walking about in search of work for three days. I have had no food day or night during those three days except half a halfpenny loaf and a little cold water." The woman's tale was not refuted, and the jury expressed their dissatisfaction with the workhouse people ; but the usual starvation verdict was returned without anyone being made responsible. We cannot let this miserable case pass without expressing a wish that the responsibility could be attached to same one. Whether that poor man's death is chargeable to a muddling system of poor-law, administration, to local meanness, or to individual . brutality, for some one, or for us all, there remains , the dreadful alternative to the promise, " Turn not thy face from any poor man, and then the face of the Lord shall never be turned from thee,'!
