T HE LATE EDITION of "THE SUN" at W. SMITIT'S *t Camden Stores," 78, Park-street, Camden The very homely but necessary consideration of how 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. 'lhe dis tance of all the great markets from most of the suburban districts have rendered it virtually im poz..sible 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 pric_s are inevitable. The populous suburbs to the north of London are therefore greatly indebted to the energy and enterprise of the public-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 in the sea that morning. 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 senarate 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 is plainly and substantially built, and offers N ery practical advantage to the oceupiere, Behind 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 B troll BURST'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 just con struction upon the effect of such sayings, a truth that cannot be too often recommended. When this news reached the garrison, five days afterwards, an expeditionary force, increased by bodies of native militia who volunteered their services, was sent out to pursue the perpetrators of the massacre, upon whom they inflicted severe loss.

Atmospherical pressure has increased nearly three-tenths of an inch on our south and 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 the lowest is reported, and Rochefort there is a difference of o'79in. Temperature 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 b'ew 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 Liberte 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 Prussia 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 fonned. 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 Common; 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 tho " Life and Services of General Lord Harris," the conqueror of Seringa patam, whose daughter he married.

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 soiree 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 Archaeology 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 soiree in St. Andrew's Hall. The con cluding general meeting will be held in the drill-hall on Wednesday, August 26. 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 una voidable absence from the Confe rence. It was recommended and carried, that in some 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-master at 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 youog 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 Bolfast journal that Mr. Dickens 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 ? Nowhar ! 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 during 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 ba,-,k on the Commons. On the last occasion the mem bers of the Lowcr 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.

I need not say the mode of pt . :A:lacing poultry is ono well worthy of attention, because we find that fowls weighing 41b might be produced just ai easily and 5 3 cheaply as fowls weighing only 21b each, if attention were paid to having good breeds, such as the Dorking, Cochin, and the best French breeds, with the Malay crossed with the Essex or Lincolnshire fowls. I find that the fowls which have been sent into Lincolnshire and Yorkshire (from whence we get large supplies) have completely changed the breeds; thirty years ago they were quit e small, and now they are large and fine. This was all brought about about by Charles Clarke of Boston, wh o 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 o Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, and other counties, poultry hat 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 to the French farmers' wives, whose greatest pride is their dairy and their poultry. The suggestion 1. would make would be simply this-7" that whe e there are cottagers and small farmers the gen tlemen in the immediate neighbourhood should find a suppV of good stock, and then distribute the eggs for breeding purposes, the cost of which could not bo more than 50. or 10s., 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 lleathfield, in a radius of about 20 miles ; during the next three months we shall have sent to London, front 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 o (very great importance, be cause we must not only consider that there are 3,000, 000 of people to supply food to here, but we aho supply 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 accessiLle. That is not the case iniFrance ; 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 and 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 Wale; and I find that in some parts the cottagers and small farmers are increasingly producing poultry, and this ought to be established through the length and breadth of Ireland. By the plan I propose I think we could introduce a nevi mode of breeding and feeding poultry, Thus, chicken s two or three months old, will fatten in 7, 14, or 21 days , at a cost of 4d. or 6d. per week. Ido not think there is possibility of raising any kind of vegetable so quickly se that, so as to produce a fat article out of a lean one hi about 7or 14 days. The way in which the people round about Ileathfield, Cuckfield, Uckfield, and other parts of Sussex, have improved within the last, ten years is marvellous ; and they now make from 3s. 6(l ' t i ss. 6d. for chickens not more than three months old. The chief point is the labour, the only expense there can be in rearing, until they get about two months old, which should be by the side of a hedge, or where there i 0 grass, which cannot cost more than Is. to Is. 6d. ; strong , healthy, well-fed chickens are very soonfattened. I thin k that is a power of manufacture which is worthy of the consideration of the country, as the profit must be at least from 50 to 75 per cent. The means of feeding are simply these:—Barley or oatmeal ground fine, grease, fat, or ste t mixed with it ; now milk, or if not procurable, meat broth mixed with it to the consistency of thick soup, a nd 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, an d quiet, a:ways fatten quicker than when they h ave toe much room or light; that is a very important part of the French system, to keep them in the dark. But whet would wish to point out is this : the French fowls which ,ire fed with a funnel aro a particular breed—the Craves sieur (Crcivecceur ?), La Fleche, Le Mans, and Holdall ; 11 ' small chicken would not beer the ranee' to go down its throat. This class of fowl are now selling wholesale, is Paris, at from Gs. 6d. to 15s. each. I think it would be rather difficult to introduce this s3l tem of feeding by funnel at first amongst farmers, as it ' 4 a process which requires some dexterity and patience ; b ut it is very simple. To make a coop for twenty-four WO' with a small trough, to be kept clean, to peck the cltic ens (as they do in Sussex) for seven or fifteen days, 14 what any one could undertake. The chickens must (MU have food enough to fill themselves full ; then they Mu st be kept in the dark, and quiet. The food must be ma de into a consistency similar to soup ; boiled eggs are solve times given to them during the last two or three days and as fowls well fattened fetch such a price, it i 8 wort h while to bring them to the highest perfection. I hav e never seen such fowls in England as 1 saw in the P ari s market and the Palais Royal, each weighing 101bs. 141b5., which fowls were eight or ten mouths old. The must be large to be fed with the funnel; while ohickel from ten weeks to four months old have this special fe e d in coops (holding twelve to twenty-four each), provid e s with troughs which must be daily cleared. There is ; difference, of course, between a chicken fattened l b;. ; way and fowls fattened for any special purpose, as is deg with a funnel. Our own supply of poultry can be only increased be giving plots of land to farm labourers, stimulating th cottagers and small farmers to breed and fatten poultry' 0 for, wherever it is mixed and crowded together, disea se !, sure to follow, and it is impossible to produce them to s' l , , vantage. I am quite certain that the supply of potiltrj might be increased at least ten, and the eggs at least will fold, and when you seriously consider tho matter you see how important this is. I do not know how man e cattle there are in this country ; but when you come fowls you can count them by millions, and then if yun . crease the weight of each fowl which is eaten by 0 m; half a pound, you will see what an important effect I. produce. But that is putting it at the very lowest P oi ; by properly breeding and feeding fowls, the w eight 0 3 0 , be increased, not half a pound, but from 11b. to 21bse th cording to the breed and the system adopted. i a , respect to poultry, therefore, I earnestly c f, i , ull tend it is the duty of the people of this co' d a who have at heart the true interests of the industria l s° io working classes, not only to give them a good cott e g e i s o live in, and a small piece of ground to cultivate, h ut d to give them a brood of two good fowls, which Nv ( :, answer the purpose of a bank. This would be a h ati 'v ° o the best kind, because the children can so much ila r . ° ,. e a it. It is watchful labour which is particularly requ''oe to produce poultry, and we should then find, as is °d if y on the continent, that where people have this oppo rtnu e o of employing their time, and their children, it makes tbere careful and - saving. But it is of the utmost empori a t i to have a good breed. 1 take this matter up, not ol io a matter of business, but from benevolent motives• beet s engaged now as a guardian of the poor, and I hav e t i e el always connected with associations for the Pracieel benefit of industrial populations, especially the a g ri r a - D oll tural labourer ; and I have been much interested in t he Girdlestone's project for improving the condition °f agricultural labourer, especially as I come from 14 bre ed myself. I feel that if the method of improving the_titee of poultry were put before the people, it would e'raogt them to help themselves ; and that is really t he e d, iti satisfactory way of helping them. I have been info ranch one district where the breeding of poultry has h eeu increased, the poor rates have sensibly aiininiele s ot should not be afraid to go before any body Of Pieu toc i convince them that here is a kind of El Dorado , it ou t should be very happy to show them how to work h e t practically. In conclusion, I would say that if 7tlie , have stated could be printed and put before the P . : fo od would be of the greatest possible advantage, as i t I ra, 001 - to be in many parts of our own country, Delo rig eed land, Normandy, and many other parts of Fra,f u e ; t erel wherever there is conceded to the industria l eg l'noaitre" poor some advantag •, such as the keeping t, tho ugh t would be considered, these habits of econceny 33" " 330 06 would insure the surest pledge of ordir and virtue any people.
