PROFESSOR MAURICE—In the hot discontent of 1848, a singular assamblage might have been seen collected in the room of a coffee-house in Holborn. There you would have encountered men of glib tongue, passionate in temper tment, of solid or scanty information, well meaning and ill-meaning, sheer demagogues or earnest fellows, painfully struggling to right a world which seemed too heavy at the top. Presiding over them was a scholar, fresh from the quiet refined family, or the choice seats of biblical and classical lore. This was Pro fessor Maurice. Determined to satisfy himself as to what those clamorous thousands really were- - what their thoughts, their wishes, and their mental and moral standard—the Professor took a bold step, and with mar vellous judgment contrived to bring together all the leaders who had the confidence of the workshops and the repute of respectable men. For week after week, he listened attentively to the expression of their pana cea, their wild complaints, and their restless, undecided scepticism. The plan he adopted was to take notes of each man's address, and before the evening closed to read them over, taking every opportunity to put a word of counsel to set aside a fallacy, and to bring into beau tiful relief an unsullied Christianity. Of course, the mere trading agitators could not stand this, and his audience grew a little thinner ; but, to the last, it was of a remarkable description. Then followed lectures of a directly religious tendency, classes of various kinds, and attempts to bring the associated principle into prac tice, so far as our law of partnership will allow. Pro fessor Maurice's labours have rescued hundreds of acute, well-read, moral working men from the evils of infide lity, and the dangers of tempestuous political agitation. He is beloved, almost adored, by numbers who, in their turn, influence more ; and the peculiar congregation at his own church, and the lecture rooms of the establish ments of the men themselves, s hall be my proofs. All this, of course, is distasteful to the High Church and Tory dignitaries of King's College ; and it will take a great deal of very clever casuistry to induce one to be lieve that, if the Professor, in his spare hours, had slept upon his sofa, assiduously flattered the patrons or gone out to judicious dinners, and talked of scepticism of the age over bottles of port, instead of sitting down with " a set of Chartists, and endeavouring to bring them to reason and religion, he would not at this moment, whatever his exact theology, be the most honoured (as amongst the students he is the most beloved), of all the teachers of youth at the not very forward educational institution known as King's College.—Cambridge Inde• pendent. PHILANTHROPIC INSTITUTION.—Yesterday the quar terly court of the governors of this institution, estab lished at Red-hill Farm, Reigate, for the reformation of juvenile criminals, was held at the offices, Crown-court, Threadneedle -street ; Mr. William Gladstone, trea surer, in the chair. Several cases were considered, most of which, however, were refused admittance for want of room, the chairman stating that until the completion of the new buildings at present in pro gress it would be impossible to have at the farm a Larger number than 170. Mr. Sydney Turner (chap lain) read the report for the last quarter, from which it appeared that during that period 23 pupils had been admitted and 46 discharged. The 46 discharged were particularised as follows :-36 emigrated, 1 went to sea 1 obtained service, 0 were provided with employment by their friends, and 2 d eser t e d , an d when apprehended were sentenced to penal servitude. There were in all admitted, since January, 108 ; discharged, 149. Of those at present at the farm 89 are there on account of government, 35 in part paid for by their friends, and Bon the free list. The balance on the farm account of the year was 392/., but that on the average of three years only 11. 7s. ld., whence it appeared that it only paid its own expenses. The report was adopted, and after the disposal of so me rou ti ne b us i ness t h e proceedings' termi nated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. BELGRAVIA IN DARKNESS.—On Monday evening, from some unexplained cause, the whole of this district was suddenly immersed in darkness, owing to the extin guishing of the street gas lamps. The attendance of visitors at the exhibition yesterday surpassed that of all former years. Large as the num bers were on the day of opening, the attendance of yes terday was more than double and so crow d e d wa s t h e bazaar that it was with difficulty people could move about, and great inconvenience was experienced in the attempts to see the animals. The sales continue to be still rather backward. Mr. Stratton's prize ox, for which he obtained the gold medal, had not found a pur chaser last night ; but Prince Albert's pigs, for which the gold medal was awarded to his Royal' Highness, have been sold to Mr. Wall, of Jermyn-street, pur veyor to her Majesty. THE DINNER. The annual dinner of the club took place last night at the Freemasons' Tavern ; the Duke of Richmond, pre sident, in the chair. On his right were Lord Berners, Lord Portman, Sir John Shelley, Bart., M.P., &c. ; on his left, Mr. Pusey, Admiral Saumarez, Mr. Barrow, M.P., Mr. Raymond Barker, Mr. Fisher Hobbs, &c. Among the company were Mr. Brandreth, Mr. Barrett, Mr. Baker, Mr. Hudson, Professor Symonds, Mr. Brandreth Gibbs, the hon. secretary ; Mr. Druce, Mr. Turner, Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Moore, Mr. Wilson, Mr. Greetham, Mr. Farthing, &c. The CHAIRMAN proposed the first toast of the evening, "The Queen," which was received with every demon stration of loyalty. His GRACE, on proposing " Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family," stated that he had forwarded a communication to her Majesty and. to his Royal Highness, intimating that arrangements would be made for them to have a private view of the show on Monday last, and that he had received an answer, stating that nothing would have prevented her Majesty and. his 'Royal Highness from availing them selves of this offer but the fact that they were out of town. (Hear, hear.) He' must add that he was ex tremely glad his Royal Highness had won the *gold medal on the present occasion in the elms he had done, as it had been won against formidable competition ; for it was the general opinion that there never was such a show of pigs as on the present occa sion. They were much indebted to his Royal Highness, for, by his becoming a member of the club, and by his constantly exhibiting at their shows, he had done much to render it fashionable. (Hear.) With regard to the Prince of Wales, it was a matter of great importance, not, perhaps, to one so old as he was, but to future gene rations, that the Prince of Wales should be educated as an English gentleman, devoted to the land of his birth, and that he should tread in the footsteps of his royal parents. (Cheers.) He concluded by proposing "The Health of Prince Alb er t, Alb er t P r i nce o f Wales, and the other members of the Royal Family," which was drunk with all the honours. The CHAIRMAN then proposed " Success to the Smith field Cattle Club." He believed every individual pre sent was aware that this association was established many , years ago for the purpose of improving the breed of cat tle, sheep, and pigs in this country. The object of the as sociation was, not to produce monster animals, such as they had seen in the exhibition from the county of Buck ingham, hut to produce animals that would come to early maturity, and be wholesome, cheap food to the consumers of this country. Now, he . was authorised by the judges to state that they considered the present show to be better than an average one, that the pigs and sheep had seldom, if ever, been exceeded, and that the show altogether was exceedingly creditable to the exhibitors of the country. It was not only as numerous a show as they had ever seen, but it contained a number of very superior ani mals. Only a few years ago it was predicted that the Smithfield Cattle Club would no longer exhibit such splendid shows in the metropolis as they had been ac customed to do, for the Birmingham and other shows would tread on their heels, and Smithfield would not be able to compete with them. Now, he hoped there never would be any rivalry between the Smithfield Club, the Birmingham one, the great one in Yorkshire, and others in the country that might be mentioned, ex cept the honourable emulation of doing the best they could for the agriculturists and for the consumers at large. (Cheers.) It appeared to him that the field was open, and wide enough to contain many more societies that there were at the present moment. But if those societies were flourishing, to whom was the credit due ? Why, originally, the Smithfield Cattle Club, which set the example that had been followed in every other part of the country. (Cheers.) And they would permit him to say that that was an answer to those who said that these associations were.ef no service to the country. if they were of no service to the country, would they find them, as they, did, existing in every, country ? . The fact was that they had been of the very greatest service, and he wished them every prosperity. If there was no other reason, they would find one in visiting the show and seeing the throngs of people who went to see the exhi bition. Was it not something in their favour that while they promoted their own interest, and that great interest which was paramount to all others—the agricultural in terest of the country—was it not gratifying that they were able to please so many of their fellow-country `men, who, but for this show, -you'd never see a sheep except in Smithfield-market ? (Laughter and applause.) He asked them, then, to drink prosperity to the Smith field Cattle Club, and might every other association fol low its example. As to the finances of the club, which had a great deal to do with its prosperity, he begged to tell them that there was at present a large marginal sur plus in the hands of their Chancellor of the Exchequer, and that, after paying all demands, they had a clear an nual income in hand to meet the liabilities of next year. He begged to drnk " prosperity to the Smithfield Cattle Club,' and he believed it would prosper as long as the exhibitors continued to send such specimens of cattle, sheep, and pigs as they had seen in the present show. The SECRETARY then read over the awards of the judges, and those of the successful competitors who were present came forward and received their prizes from the chairman, after which the healths of the winners of the gold medals were given in succession from the chair. Lord BERNERS proposed the health of his grace in the •hair, as the winner of the medal for short-woolled sheep. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks. He had attempted to do his best. He knew that his endeavours had been but feeble, but he had always attempted to do that which he thought was for the weal of the whole empire ; and in promoting the agricultural interest, he believed he was doing that which would best promote the interests of all. He bad been a member of the club for many years, he had often exhibited, and he had often been called upon to return thanks in that room for the un successful candidates. Occasionally he had obtained a second class prize, but only once before had he cleared the field in all classes. He would say, for the instruc tion of young flock masters and young farmers through out the country, that the great reason why they did not all improve was that it was a long while before they could be convinced that their flocks needed im provement. When he went to a show he always looked at all the animals that competed against him, and when he saw in what it was that his animals were de ficient, he said to his agent and his shepherd, " Let ma do our best to correct that, and ere long we shall get into a better position." Mr. Rigdon, of Hove—than whom a better and more straightforward Sussex farmer did not exist, and who had gained the second prize in one class—told him that ho hoped next year they would change positions. (Laughter.) He was obliged to Mr. Rigdon for that wish, as it implied that he (the Duke) should be second, at any rate ; but he must warn Mr. Rigdon and the other breeders that if they did not take care, the Earl of Radnor, who had also gained a second prize, and who was a most dangerous customer. —(laughter)—would beat them all. He thanked them for the compliment they had paid him, and he could as sure Mr. Rigdon and everybody else that if they beat him next year it would not be without a desperate stuggle. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed " The unsuccessful competitors," and called upon Sir John Shelley to return thanks. Sir JOHN SHELLEY admitted that he had always striven to avoid false shame, and in such a superb show of sheep as there was in the yard on this occasion he did not know that there was anything in his position as an un successful competitor to be ashamed of. (Cheers.) He could only promise, in his own name and in the name of the other unsuccessful competitors, that they would do their best to reverse their position, if they were spared to another year. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed " The Vice-Presidents and Trustees of the Club." Lord PORTMAN returned thanks as the junior trustee, and he could only wish that his duties were more respon sible than they were, by the increase of the funds of the club. He lamented also that he did not see the same zeal on the part of the butchers this year as he had done on former occasions, and he trusted his hon. friend, Sir John Shelley, who was a vice-president of the Butchers' Charitable Association, would stir them up in this respect. (Laughter.) Lord BERNERS returned thanks on behalf of the vice presidents, and reminded the meeting that by a recent regulation of the Royal Agricultural Society it was the privilege of its members, on any disease overtaking their cattle, to call in the assistance of Professor Sy monds. He had lately had occasion to do so, and he spoke in the warmest terms of Professor Symonds's veterinary The CIIAIRMAN then proposed the " Royal Agricult u ralc.u, Society of England," which emanated from r c li c s ou l p u ie and which was started in that room. with it the health of its highly disting n uis e b ' :: Mr. Pusey. had t few Y.

The farmers could not do ,so without the aid of the . Royal Agricultural Society, which diffused, abroad over the whole country all the irnprolieinents that took place in / any particular district, and of which otherwise they would not be aware. This next year they were going to a - county where the marks of improve ment were most recent. They had all heard of the' drainage of- Holland, in Lincolnshire, where, by dint,, not of ordinary drains, but of immense canals, 600,000 acres had been recovered from the sea. He hoped when gentlemen came to the show at Lincoln, they would not fail to make themselves acquainted with these great achievements in the art of agriculture. After some toasts of a routine character, the meeting adjourned. HEALTH OP LONDON DURING THE WEEK• ( From the Re gistrar-General's Report.) The rate of mortality in the metropolis continues to advance, and in the week that ended on Saturday the number of deaths rose to 1,414. In five weeks that have elapsed since 29th October, the numbers have been 1,112, 1,192, 1,162, 1,339, and 1,414. Concurrent with these weekly numbers there has been an almost constant fall in the mean temperature, which has been as follows: 48 In the,: 45'7 deg., 38 - 5 deg., 361 deg., an d 40 - 0 deg tin weeks Corresponding-to l as t week of the . years 1843-52 the average number of deaths was 1,200, which, if raised in proportion to increase of population, becomes 1,320. The excess in the present return above the calculated amount is near 100. Last week 620 children died under 15 years of age, 481 men and women between 15 and 80 years, and 306 at 60 years and upwards. From phthisis (or consump tion) there died 175 persons, from bronchitis 178, from pneumonia (inflammation of the lungs) 143. Fatal cases of these diseases have become more numerous, and the two former exhibit a mortality considerably above the average. Old persons, and those particularly who are subject to pulmonary complaints, suffer from the coldness of the weather; and the high price of fuel at this time renders the poor less able to contend with it, besides abridging their means of obtaining bread, which is also dear, as well as the other necessaries of life. Cholera is very much diminished, and will probably, as in the previous .epidemic, nearly disappear for a time. Only 28 deaths from cholera were registered last week, 7 of which occurred in the west districts, 4 in the north, 5 in the east, and 12 in the south districts. The following is a list of deaths from cholera, last week : WEST DISTRICTS. Population, 376,427. D ea th s f rom cholera 7.

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OP A YOUNG LADY.— Yesterday police circulars were issued offering 101. re ward for the discovery of a young lady, who left her home at Bayswater, under circumstances of a mysterious and suspicious nature. As the bills set forth that she was supposed to be drowned, several parties were last afternoon engaged dragging the canals and ponds in the neighbourhood, in the hope of finding the body, but their efforts, up to a late hour, were in vain. SUSPECTED SUICIDE BY A MARRIED WOMAN. Yes - terday, the body of a fem a l e w h o was subsequently identified as the wife of a tailor, residing in Camden town, was found floating in the Regent's Canal, near Hawley-bridge, arid conveyed to the dead-house, to await a coroner's inquest. It appears from inquiries that deceased l e ft h ome last Saturday night, after hay ing a few wo r d s w i th her husband, and that she was never seen alive afterwards.

Yesterday morning, at an eariy hour, a fire broke out in the premises belonging to Mr. W. P. Goulding, oil and colourman, carrying on b us i ness at No. 3, Enclive place, Commercial-road East. The fire was first dis covered by a police-officer of the H division, who, is passing the premises, noticed smoke issuing through the apertures in the window shutters. The constable im mediately sounded an alarm, and after some time suc ceeded in arousing the inmates, who fortunately effected a safe retreat. The Royal Society's escapes, with the engines of the parish and London Brigade, were soon in attendance, and an abundant supply of water having been obtained_ from _the mains of the East London Com pany, the firemen went to work in admirable style, and fortunately succeeded in extinguishing the fire, but not until considerable damage was done, the whole of the stock in trade being destroyed. The loss will fall on the Union Fire Office. A short time before the above fire took place, another one broke out in the premises belonging to Messrs. Todd and Proctor, cheesemongers, 78, St. Paul's Churchyard. It was caused by the heat of a hot-air-plate in the next house. The engines of the London Brigade from Wat ling-street and the Royal Society's escapes were soon in attendance, and owing to the exertions of the firemen the fire was extinguished, but not until considerable damage was done to the premises of Messrs. Todd, and also to the laboratory of Mr. Keating, the chemist, next door. The sufferers are insured in the Phcenix Fire-office. About one o'clock yesterday morning a mounted express arrived at the London Brigade stations with intelligence of an alarming fire having broken out in Wimbledon Park, Surrey. The moment the news arrived, Mr. Henderson,. the chief officer of the D sec tion, started to the sport - with two powerful engines, and a full complement of firemen. Upon reaching the scene the firemen found that the outbreak had taken place in an extensive mansion recently erected in So merset-road, Wimbledon Park. It was used by some i p wn a hg r e t a in fire th o e n d th r e aw h i e n a: ro h, o w ni hr n h set the fi fr oo nm r. floor. The London firemen and the parish eng i neer s n iae c ns e din th ajk o oiisn fi tg re extended to three rooms on the first joists managed to get the flames subdued, but not until a great deal of damage was done by fire and water, and a number of squares of plate glass demolighed. It could not be ascertained whether or not the property was insured. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RET URNS.

The measures at that time adopted mainly consisted in the establishment of additional offices, and the consequent, increase in the number and efficiency of the telegraphic bureaux. The French Government has now assisted in a still further and much greater improvement. The desirability of a direct service with the English instrument between the two c but t h h i e e f impediments existing had long in o g t hbeene difference acknowledged, of t the French and English systems of signalling were almost insurmountable ob s t ac l es to so beneficial an alteration. Thanks, however, to the liberal and enlightened policy of Louis Napoleon, these obstacles have been h overcome, i and ta a direct through service, worked b upon wires spec i ally devoted to T li.e g ls n.strumer! companies by the French Government, has just been established between the two capitals. Signals transmitted from the Central offices of aria ofthe Subm ar i ne an d E uro p e an Companies, Regent-circus, Piccadilly, appear directly upon the dial of the instruments at Paris, the delay to ueh intermedi a ries is avo id e d, an d the liability to error very much diminish . nte ia e d , C f o r u o p n l i e d the w istihm these direct o n o f theadvantages e which very s trans mittingcollateral facilities have been also obtained much exp e dit e b us i ne ss with other parts of France and Italy, and w ith Germany generally.
