THE TRAMWAY SYSTE\I IN THE METROPOLIS. Provided with Patent Hook and Needle Guard, which prevents the breaking of thread and needle, is the only really At a meeting of the Board of Works yesterday, a memo rial was presented, signed by sixty of the leading inhabi tants of Portland-place against the extension of the train way system into that district. The memorialists argued that the introduction of such tram ways would destroy the privacy and quiet whi6h the district had for many years enjoyed, and which, it was believed, was secured by the private gules belonging to the Crown at the entrance to Park -crescent. On this conviction, the memorialists had paid large priceagfor the leases of their mansions, and expended considerable sums in improvements. They further objected that a trading Company should have handed over to it for the benefit of its shareholders a considerable portion of the roadway to break up, and to re-pave in sach manner as might suit its rolling stock, and in direct opposition to the wishes of the inhabitants. The memorialists added that the household property in the district represented more than a million sterling, and on these grounds they prayed the Board to withhold their sanction to any provisional order for such extension. The matter was referred to the Parliamentary Committee of the Board, as was also a separate memorial in reference to the same district by Lord Portman. W. T.

" Mr. W. Evill has written a lively and agreeable account of 'A Winter Journey to Rome.' Ills descriptions of scenery in the Alps and of the Italian cities are exceedingly graphic, shewing much sympathy with nature, and a refined intelligence, Though the style of the book is somewhat sketchy, it is thoroughly readable, especially in the passages referring to the Council, which have in some degree the value of contemporary history."— Daily Telegraph. "Those who have followed the well-known route, and visited the spots described by 'Mr. Evill, are scarcely likVy to add much to their fund of information by reading his lively sketches yet we are far from saying that the publication is superfluous.

As a graphic delineator of the superb scenery and the renowned cities through which he made this winter journey, he has acquitted himself admirably well."—Sun.

Notwithstanding his well worn subject, Mr. Evill has produced an agreeable little volume, which may not unprofitably detain the reader."—Daily News. " There is no pretension whatever about the book of travels, and though it relates very little of what is new, it tells of nothing that is uninteresting, vapid, or dull.

A HOPEFUL DAUGHTER.—Harriet Whitehouse, a well grown girl of 16, was charged before Mr. Arnold, at the Westminster Police-court, with being drunk and riotous. Henry Salsbury, 10 V.R., said that at seven o'clock last evening he was in Queen's-road, West, Chelsea, when he was informed that the defendant had been ill-treating and assaulting her mother. Witness went up to her in the street and asked her what she meant by knocking her mother about, to which she only replied by a very filthy remark, inquiring what it was to him. He found she was very drunk and riotous, and he accordingly locked her up. Her mother and father had promised to attend before the magistrate. Mr. Arnold asked if they were present. The constable said they were not, although they had signed the police-sheet. They were respectable hard-working people, employed at the Pimlico stores, and defendant had lately taken, to very evil courses, and the company with whom she . associated was of the vilest character. It was impossible to know what to do with her. Mr. Arnold asked her what she had to say to the charge. Defendant : I was very drunk. I was having a drop more in a public house when my mother came and knocked the glass out of my hand. I did not hit her; I only pushed her. What was it to anyone ? As neither of the parents appeared against her she was committed to four days' hard labour, in default of paying a fine. B.

Giving a full description of the perfect insect from nature ; also a description of the Caterpillar, Chrysalis, Food Plant, Time of Appearance, and Localities where found. Each moth is drawn from nature by George Willis, and engraved in his Lest style by John Kerchner. The figures arc life-sfse cf every species ; and if varieties require it, three; four, five, and even six figures arc given. The work is complete in thirty-one monthly numbers, at 65. each. The work. is also issued in quarterly parts, in covers, at Is. 65, each part. Part X. new ready, price 2s, Back numbers reprinted, and may be had. "We congratulate British entomologists on the completion and publication of this magnificent work." Field. " Both to the beginner and the proficient in that study this work will be invaluable . ' Tcletraph. " It is illustrated with life-size figures from nature of each species, and of the more striking varieties, and it possesses great advantages over all similar works, inasmuch as the caterpillar of each moth, with his habits and season, is described. This, to collectors, will be an immense boon, and by its means they will be enabled to obtain many rare specimens."—Standard. "The completion of Mr. Newman' work on the British Moths is a benefit to entomologists of all classes. It is at once a teat-book by a high authority, most valuable for reference, and a handsome, taste fully got-up volume, which will be an ornament to any library or drawing-room table. It embodies the results of many years' earnest and intelligent work by one whose reputation as an ento mologist deservedly stands high. . . . . NVe ' notice also with satisfaction that Mr. Newman's descriptions, whilst thoroughly scientific and minute, are given in plain and unaffected English. With the help of these and the very excellent woodcuts, even a very young collector may with ease identify any moth he may cap ture. The figures are so well drawn that there is no need of colour to render them life-like. . . . We unhesitatingly commend this volume to our readers. We regard it as a very useful addition to our library." Land and Waler, Oct. 9. London—W. TWEEDIE. 337. Strand. W.O. GEOLOGY MADE EASY. A.

How SMALLPDX IS SPREAD IN THE METROPOLIS. — Edgar Mayere, a seaman, was brought up at the Thames Police-court, charged with an offence under the Sanitary Act, in not making known to a cab-driver, named Weller that he was labouring under the smallpox when he hired his cab on the 7th of last month. Weller has been fined 20s. for not immediately disinfecting his cab•`after he was made acquainted with the fact that the man he carried was labouring under smallpox. It appeared that the de fendant hired the cab on Stepney-green, and was driven to the London Hospital, where he was refused admission, on the ground that he was labouring under smallpox, and that by the regulations of the hospital contagious diseases were not admitted.EThe defendant then ordered Weller to drive him to the Whitehapel Unionhouse, where he was also refused admission by Mr. Mayer, the master, who found him in the .midst of 50 or 60 paupers in the hall, and ordered the driver back to the London Hospital' where he was refused a second time, and he ultimately found his way to the smallpox hospital. Police-Sergeant Briden of the K division, traced the course of th 9 cab, which went upon a cab rank, and carried passengers all over London before the police were made acquainted with the affair. Mr. Harvey, the proprietor of the cab, said he had disinfected it, tore out the linings, destroyed the cushions, and repainted the cab. It had not been out plying for hire in • the public streets since the 7th of December. The defendant, in reply to the charge, said he did not know the fare, he carried was labouring under smallpox, when he entered his cab. Mr. Paget : But you knew it after you had been to the hospital. He fined the defendant 55., and also ordered him to pay £3, the expenses of dis infecting the cab, or be imprisoned one month. The defendant could not pay the money, and Mr. Harvey kindly offered to accept of £2, which was paid, and the defendant was liberated. Abs.

We read in an American paper that "compositors engaged at the New York Tribune office are fined ten cents for each profane word uttered on the premises, the money so gathered being given to the poor.

NATIONAL LIFEBOAT INSTITUTION.—At a recent meeting of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution rewards were voted to the crews of various lifeboats who had been out on service during the late storms. The lifeboat men had suffered greatly in some instances from the intense cold. Many lives were saved by the exertions of the crews of the different lifeboats, who persevered in their efforts in spite of great difficultyand danger. Among the most successful services rendered were those of the Tynemouth lifeboat, which, after several gallant attempts, rescued seven men from the wrecked brigantine Amalia, of Stavanger; and those of the Wexford lifeboat, which rescued nine men from a smack which was stranded, and on another occasion seventeen , men from a Spanish barque, which had gone on the Dagger Bank on the Irish Coast.

Senor Sagasta is Spanish Minister of Finance as well as of the Interior. The Wurtemburg Minister of the Interior has ordered electioneering lists to be opened for the election of members to the German Reichstag.

A Times telegram from Berlin says the siege of Langres has been raised, the Brigade Goltz being wanted at Vesoul to reinforce Werder, who is menaced by Bourbaki and Garibaldi.

The Prussian Official Journal has published a note which makes a formal recognition that the Belgian Government' is not responsible for the hostile attitude assumed by some Belgian journals against Germany, and is no more to be held accountable than are other Governments in those countries_ where the liberty of the Press is secured. M. Dupanloup, the eminent Bishop of Orleans, is vir tually under arrest in that city. Two sentinels are sta tioned at his door, and no one is allowed to enter the house or to leave it without permission. It is rumoured that the Bishop's friendship with the Bavarians enabled him to give early information of their retreat fromk eouliniers to the French. His comparison of the German:. forces to the hordes ',of Attila has not improved hiq position with the Prussians. THE DANGERS OF THE FROST.—There is a reverse side to every picture, and a bright frosty Christmas bringd with it privations and dangers' as well as feasting an d the inexhaustible amus ement of the,ice. Among the dangers ; and associated in not a few cases with the feasting, is ail enormous number of accidents caused by the slippery cont dition of the streets. We have . been favoured with r e t u rns from nearly all the metropolitan hospitals, which enable us to give the following account of the more severe accidenti which had been admitted into the wands up to the con - i 4 mencement of the present week :—London Hospital, 108; St. Thomas's, 29 ; St. Bartholomew's, 25 ; Westminster 14 ; University College, 11; Charing-cross, 10 ; Middle*, sex, 8 ; King's College, 5 ; Great Northern, 1, making a total of 211. In comparing these figures it should be borne in mind that considerable difference of opinion exists at the various hospisals as to the degree in severity which entitles an accident to admission. The following, is an analysis of 57 cases of which we have received particulars :—Fractures of the tibia and fibula, 26.; fractures of the tibia, 2 ; fractures of the fibula, 3 ; frac tures of the radius and ulna, 6 ; fractures of the clavicle, 3i. fractures of the humerus, 2 ; fractured rib, 1; fractures the femur, 6; dislocation of the femur, 1; fractures o f thb - patella, 3 ; cerebral concussion, 1 ; spinal concussion, 1; and strangulation of previously existing hernim, 2, °cent ring in people who had sustained falls. The nnmbet 4f laccidents treated as out patients is, on an average, sev:tl times as great as those admitted.—Lancet.
