THE NAVAL MANCEUVRES

A report has been issued on the naval manceuvi,
carried out by the British fleet off the coasts of Great
Britain and Ireland in the summer of this year. The
report gives a detailed narrative of the movements of
the A, B, and C Squadrons collectively, and of the
ships composing them individually. No sum-
mary of results is issued, nor are any
comments offered by the Admiralty as to the
efficiency or otherwise of the fleet. With regard to
the general operations round the English coasts, it is
announced that the attacking squadron was com-
pletely successful in the attack on Falmouth, while at
the Nore the defending force had the best of it. With
regard to the operations at the Nore, the report says:
"Setting on one side the Downs gunboat
flotilla—which, owing to its inferior speed, was
for the purpose of attack of comparatively little
value, except among the shoals at the entrance to the
Thames—the speed of Sir W. Hewet t's squadron was
superior to that of Rear-Admiral Fremantle's ships, so
that the former had the power of giving or refusing
action. It is impossible to say what would have hap-
pened in actual war beyond this, that Rear-Admiral
Fremantle could not have remained at the Nore in the
presence of an enemy who was already more powerbil
than he, and whose reinforcements were coming up, and
he could not have gone up the Thames without sacri-
ficing his squadron. The most probable event would
seem to have been an engagement in the North Sea. It
has been stated more than once in the press that Rear-
Admiral Fremantle was unable to effect his escape to
the North Sea through not having been supplied with
necessary charts. This statement is inaccurate, the
charts referred to having actually been supplied." With
reference to the operations of the C Squadron the re-
port states: "At Spithead the defence depended en-
tirely on the patrolling gun and torpedo boats, and
the nets of the ironclads backed up by the fire of the
machine and quick-firing guns. The attack was well
delivered at midnight, and it is possible that some of
the ships might have been damaged. On the other
hand, at Portland the attack was a distinct failure, as
Vice-Admiral Baird had protected himself with a boom
and boat mines, which were impassable to the torpedo
boats, and resulted in the whole of them being put out
'of action." An abstract of reports of casualties to
()ships employed in the manceuvros shows that thirteen
vessels discovered defects, some of which resulted in
considerable damage to machinery. Of these instances
the most serious was, as will be remembered, on board
the Curlew, which was rendered ineffective for a fort-
night. The Mohawk was hors de conthat for eight
hours, but no other vessel was out of service for a
greater period than three hours, whilst the defects on
two or three of the ships were repaired whilst they re-
mained in action. Twenty-one torpedo-boats showed
defects, and it was in many cases necessary to lay to
for several hours, the longest period being forty-eight
hours.

OXFORD LOCAL EXAMINATIONS.

The thirtieth annual report of the delegacy under
the statute "of the Delegates of Local Examinations"
for the year 1887 has just been issued. It states that
the examinations were held at 56 centres, cf which 22
were special local centres at which school examina-
tions were combined with the local examinations, and
eight were new centres. The examinations in Juno
were held at seven centres, at three of which both
boys and girls, at two boys only and two
girls only, were examined. The number of
candidates examined in June was 234—namely
179 juniors, and 55 seniors. The examinations
in July were held at 49 centres, at 31 of which both
boys and girls, at 11 boys only, and at seven girls only,
were examined; and the number of candidates ex-
amined was 2369—namely, 1608 juniors and 761
seniors. The total number of candidates examined
in 1887 was 2603 (exclusive of the Hilton centre)
—namely, 1787 juniors, and 816 seniors. Of
these 1160 juniors, and 574 seniors passed, making
a total of 1734. The total number of candidates
and other persons entered for the examinations was
2675, of whom 48 failed to present themselves and
two were disqualified for having taken unfair advantage
during the examination. The result of the examin-
ations in 1886 and 1887 show that in the former year
1470 boys and 971 girls were examined, of whom
1018 and 643 :respectively passed, while in the latter
year 1611 boys and 992 girls were examined, of whom
1086 and 648 respectively passed. Of the senior candi-
dates in 1887 eight girls were in the second and 25
were in the third class. Of the juniors, three girls
were placed in the first, 13 in the second, and 30 in
the third class. Of the 159 seniors (19.4 per cent.)
who failed in preliminary subjects. 60 failed in
grammar, L;c., and 126 in arithmetic. Of those who
failed in one preliminary subject only 33 failed in
grammar and 99 in arithmetic. Of the 287 persons
(16 per cent) who failed in preliminary subject, 19
failed in dictation, 58 in grammar, 246 in arithmetic.
Of those who failed in one preliminary subject only
five failed in dictation, 33 in grammar, and 209 in
arithmetic. Thirty-eight of the senior boys showed
sufficient merit to be excused from responsions and
six of the senior girls for exemption from the first
examination for women. Last year 33 boys and ten
girls received exemption.

"FLYING SILVER.",

The Chinese paper Shih Pao prints the following
paragraph: "It is said that in ancient times the
people saw silver cups floating in the air, and this
fabulous story is still believed in certain parts of the
empire. A reporter from Canton writes to us of a
strange phenomenon which confums the old fictitious
story. On the day previous to the festival of the
eighth moon, a large number of people witnessed at
sunset a flock of birds resembling silver cups, with
the sound of ringing silver bells, flying at a great
height, from west to east, the reflection of the sun's
rays on them being so dazzling as to blind the on.
lookers' eyes. Many believed that this must be the
legendary flying silver cups, because it answered to the
ancient fable. We are a little bit sceptical of this
incredible story; but if the writer had truly seen it
with his own - eyes, it might be possible, because
strange wonders unintelligible to our feeble under-
standing do sometimes occur in this world."

NATIONAL DEBT CONVERSION SCIIEME.

The National Debt (Conversion) Bill was considered
in committee. On Clause 10 Mr. H. Fowler proposed
to strike out the words authorising the payment of
is. 6d. per cent. commission on the converted stock, and
the amendment was supported by Sir W. Harcourt,
Mr. Gladstone, and, with some qualification, by Lord
R. Churchill. The Chancellor of the Exchequer justi-
fied the payment on the ground that it was in the
nature of brokerage, and was intended to relieve small
holders of the trouble and expense of converting their
stock. On a division the amendment was negatived by
244 to 127, and, the bill having passed through commit-
tee, the sitting was suspended.

A POST-MORTEM SALARY.

A canonised saint who has been dead more than
fourteen centuries, but still continues to draw an
annual salary for services rendered, is certainly an
extraordinary phenomenon. The saint is Saint
Antony, and his paymaster is the State of Brazil. So,
at least, says the Allgemeine Deutcshe Zeit ung, the
organ of the German colony in Rio. The old
Egyptian hermit is officially recognised and described
in Brazil as the 6, Tenente-coloael honorario de exer-
citio brazilieno, o glorioso Santo Antonio "---the
honorary lieutenant-colonel of the Brazilian army the
glorious Saint Antony. The sum of 240,000 dollars is
paid to him annually as his due military stipend, and the
saint receives it through the hands of the Prior of the
Monastrey de Santo Antonio on the Morro. By what
means the money passes from the Prior's hands into
those of the saint has not yet been made clear.

PROCLAMATION TO ALSACE-LORRAINE.

The following proclamation from the Emperor
Frederick was published at Strasburg on Monday
afternoon:

We, Frederick, by the Grace of God, German Em-
peror and King of Prussia, make known and do hereby
declare: Our beloved father's Majesty, the late Em-
peror William, having departed this life in accordance
with God's decree, the German Imperial dignity, and
together with it, in accordance -with the laws of the
Empire, the Government of the Reichslande, has de-
volved upon us. We have consequently assumed it in
the name of the Empire, determined to preserve the
rights of the Empire over these German terri-
tories re-united with the Fatherland after a long
Interval. We are conscious of our duty to
cultivate in these territories German ideas and
customs, to protect right and justice, and to
promote the welfare and the prosperity of the
inhabitants. In our endeavours to do justice to this
task, we count upon the confidence and devotion of
the population, and upon the faithful fulfilment of
their duties by all the authorities and officials. We
demand and expect a conscientious observance of the
laws, but at the same time we shall, on our part, ex-
tend our Imperial protection to the rights of all. By
means of an impartial administratien of justice and a
lawful and benevolent Government conducted with
circumspection, but with a firm hand, the union of
Alsace-Lorraine with the German Empire, which the
lapse of years cannot annul, will again become as in-
timate as it was in the times of our ancestors, before
these Germans lands were severed from the very
ancient and glorious union with their kindred and
' countrymen. We command that the present rescript
be proclaimed through the Official Journal.
Done at Charlottenburgh, March 15th, 1888.

"MONEY MILLER."

Intelligence has just been received in London of th
death of one of the wealthiest men in Greater Britain,
or in the world at large, the Hon. Henry Miller, of
Melbourne, Victoria. He is reputed to have been
worth between three and four millions sterling, and
he was known throughout Australia by the sobriquet
of " Money Miller," from the fact that every specula-
tion he touched turned to gold. He was tin chair-
man and the founder of the Bank of Victoria, and was
associated with a host of minor financial institutions.
When the Imperial Parliament some 35 years ago
gave representative institutions to Victoria, lie
stood for the city of Melbourne in I was
returned. Sir John O'Shanassy, the first Irish
Premier of Victoria, gave him a place in his Ministry
as Commissioner of Trade and Customs. Of 'a.,5
years, however, he held entirely aloof from political
life. The one extravagance in which he permitted
himself to indulge was the buying of pictures, and
he is known to have possessed one of the finest private
collections in the Empire. So little of his vast wealth
did he devote to charitable purposes that when Miss
Genevieve Ward, the famous and fascinating actress,
succeeded in screwing £5O out of him for the buil&ng
fund of the new Women's Hospital in Melbourn-,
which she was largely insti omental in building, this
unprecedented event in his history was made the sub-
ject of both cynical and complimentary remarks in tha
leading columns of the Melbourne papers. Mr. Miller
was a native of Londonderry, Ireland, and died in his
80th year. He leaves several sons and daughters.
One of the latter is married to Colonel Bancroft, of
the 16th Foot, and another to the Hon. 11. J. Wrixon,
Attorney-General in the present Government of
Victoria. 4

away, and nature has regained her sway. It was
noted that of all the foreign Princes who were in
Berlin for the funeral, except of course the immediate
relations, none were treated with more warmth and
cordiality by the Emperor and Empress than the
Crown Prince Rudolph, 'who on Saturday, when all
the other visitors had left, stayed on for two hours
and a half, as if he formed part of the family, and
only returned to Berlin in time to start for home.

COMMERCIAL EDUCATION.

The Society of Arts, with a view of rendering their
Commercial Examinations more practical and
technical, have decided to examine candidates who
have passed the general examination for Commercial
Certificates in special subjects relating to different
branches of commerce. For the present year it is
proposed to hold an examination in two divisions: I.
The Commerce of Food; 11. The Commerce of
Clothing. In both divisions candidates for examina-
tion will be expected to answer questions as to
sources of supply of the various products, the
countries producing them, their nature, method of pre-
paration for market, characteristics, method of test-
ing, substances used in adulteration, values, methods
of importation, cost and method of transport, foreign
markets, discounts, trade allowances, shipping in-
surance, customs duties, and so on. The first ex-
amination will be held in June. •

POLICE AND MAGISTRATE.

At the evening sitting Mr. Pickersgill called atten-
tion to the memorandum issued by Sir Charles Warren
reflecting upon the administration of justice by Mr.
Baggallay, the police magistrate of West Ham, and
moved a resolution expressing regret at the issue of the
memorandum, and affirming that such a course must
tend to produce a most prejudicial effect by weakening
the authority of the magistrate over the police within
his jurisdiction.
, .
Mr. Matthews held that in the circumstances of the
particular case the Commissioner of Police was bound
either to dismiss the constable Bloy, who had been
censured by the magistrate, or to institute
an inquiry into his conduct. The Solicitor
to the Treasury had also investigated the
matter, and came to the same conclusion as
Sir Charles Warren. The right hon. gentleman, how-
ever, admitted that the Chief Commissioner of Police
had committed an error of judgment, and he had ex-
pressed his regret to the magistrate, who had thanked
him. He therefore deprecated any decision being
come to by the House upon what was after all only a
difference of opinion between the magistrate and the
Chief Commissioner, and moved the previous question.
After some remarks by Mr. Howell and Mr. Addison,
Mr. H. Fowler recommended that after the state-
ment of the Home Secretary the motion should not be
pressed, and the resolution arid the previous question
were then withdrawn.

ROYAL PARKS.

A return moved for by Mr. Pickersgill, M.P., was
issued on Tuesday, giving the areas, uses, &c., of the
Royal Parks in the United Kingdom. Battersea Park,
which covers an area of 199 acres, is practically
entirely devoted to the public, only abeut two acres
being reserved for frame ground to propagate plant§
and for necessary builiingrs. Bushy Park contains 904
acres, but from a large portion of this the public are
excluded. No less than 104 acres are kept as meadow
land for hay, and 55 acres for timber, and these 159
acres produce the small revenue of £9l per annum.
Then there is a reservation of 75 acres for the
Royal paddocks, 36 acres for enclosures for deer, and
the total reservation amounts to about 320 acres.
Greenwich Park contains 185 acres almost all
devoted to the public; and Hampton Court Park, with
an area of 752 acres, is wholly unreserved, and the
same may be said of Hampton-court-green (17 acres),
and Hampton-court Enclosure Gardens (42 acres),
Hyde Park, with 360 acres, is also practically
unreserved, and the public have equal freedom in
Kennington Park (19 acres), Kensington-gardens (274
acres), Kew-gardens (248 acres), and Regent's Park
(472 acres), the largest reservation in Regent's Park
being 31 acres for the Zoological-gardens. Other
portions also are let, bringing in a total revenue of
£2,344 18s, 10d., to which £358 Os. 9. is con-
tributed by the Zoological Society. There are also
the four contributions to the revenue: Baptist
College and grounds, £213 Bs. 9d.; St. Dunstan's
Villa and grounds, £256 16s. 7d.; St. John's Lodge
and grounds, £234 2s. 3d.; Botanical Society's gardens,
£300; and South Villa and grounds, £323. There are
also some mailer tenancies, which make up the total.
Richmond Old Deer Park, containing 363 acres is not
open to the public at all, and produces a revenue of
£272. Richmond and Petersham Parks cover 2470
acres, and from these the following reservations are
made : Plantations, 142 acres ; mowing ground,
104 acres ; deer paddocks, .137 acres; ranger's
meadow, 20 acres; arable land for growing
roots for deer, 18 acres. There. are several
minor ',areas from which the public are excluded,
and the revenue per annum is set down at £4OO
for the sale of timber, and £lOO for feeding cattle.
St. James's Park (93 acres) and Victoria Park (212
acres) are unreserved, but from Windsor Great Park,
which covers 5,300 acres, no less than 1395 acres
must be deducted from which the public are excluded.
The revenue of this park is also nil. Windsor Home
Park consists of 73 acres, with no restrictions to the
public. Other parks in the kingdom are mentioned,
the largest being Phcenix Park, Dublin, which covers
1752 acres, and of which area 421 acres are reserved
for the Viceregal Lodge and other Government
purpeses.

THE MAJOR AND THE MAID.

A dark-eyed Spanish girl was the cause of the
trouble that eventually separated a married couple
named Dewar. The marriage took place on 20th
August, 1868, at Gibraltar, and there were four
children. In January, 1885, the respondent, a major
in the Royal Horse Artillery, was quartered with his
regiment at Gibraltar, and the petitioner took into her
service a Spanish girl of the name of Mary Barca, a
native of that place. After a time the petitioner had
occasion to remonstrate with her husband as to his in-
timacy with her, and on one occasion she found them
together under such circumstances that in consequence
she filed a petition for a judicial separation. There
was a further charge on the record of misconduct,
but it was not gone into, consequently all opposi-
tion was withdrawn, the only evidence given being
that of the petitioner herself. Justice Butt granted a
decree of judicial separation, with costs, and custody
of the children.

GUN SMUGGLING.

There is no licence required for carrying a gun in
the United States. But there is a duty of 35 per cent.
on all new guns going into New York. Many are the
dodges practised in order to avoid this very excessive
payment. The leather cases are made to look old,
and covered with old luggage labels, so that perchance
the Revenue officers may pass over them, and there
is a very ingenious plan often resorted to. The owner
of the gun fires off a few random shots when he is
within a couple of days of New York, and places it
back in the case, leaving in the blank cartridges, to-
gether with an old rod and other small items so as to
give it as old a flavour as possible. These guns are
soon bought up, and a well-known maker informed
us that a customer paid his fare to America and back
with a trifle to spare by thus firing a pair of 100-
guinea guns. He saved over £35 by the tzansaction.

"How dare you sell me bad fish yesterday ?" asked

ACTION BY A NUN.

At the Bristol Assizes, on Monday, the action
brought by Miss Mason, formerly a Benedictine nun,
against Drs. Marshall and Shaw, of Clifton, and
Madame Gauchard, Superioress of the Benedictine
Convent, Clifton, for damages for forcible removal and
incarceration in a lunatic asylum, was concluded after
a four days' hearing. Mr. Justice Field, in summing
up, said originally the male defendants were charged
with conspiracy, signing the lunacy certificate falsely,
and with neglect in conjunction with the other defen-
dant. The doctors went to the convent without fee
or reward, and one of them had never seen the plain-
tiff before, and yet, without the smallest evidence,
there were people wicked enough to bring these
charges, and put the defendants on their trial. The
jury must say whether it was reasonable conduct for
the young lady to slap and spit in the faces of persons
with whom me had no quarrel. The jury, after a long
deliberation, found that the plaintiff was of unsound
mind, and gave a verdict for the defendants on all
points. His logdship gave judgment accordingly, with
costs.

TORTURING A CHILD.

:3EVERE SENTENCE.

- c Liverpool Assizes on Saturda7 the trial of Sarah
111,Th Welsh and Jtlin Welsh, her husband, on the
charge of gross cruelty to Emma Gray, daughter of
the Male prisc,ner, was concluded. Evidence was
givezi that the girl had been starved and otherwise
cruelly ill-used by the prisoners. The father beat her
with a strap, and kicked one of her teeth out, whilst
her Stepmother had burned her with a stair rod,
which was used as a poker, and had cut her fingers
with a chopper. The girl had been tied with a rope
to the bedstead, and kept without food. When she
was reecued by the Children's Protection Society she
was in a terribly emaciated condition, and covered
with wounds and bruises. Her intellect had been
permanently injured by the treatment to which she
had been subjected. The defence was that the burns
were accidental, and that the girl had to be punished
sometimes because she stole things. Otherwise she
had always been treated well. The woman made a
long statement to this effect, and stated that Welsh
was a good husband and father. The jury, after a
few minutes' deliberation, found the female prisoner
guilty of doing grievous bodily harm with intent to
kill, and the other prisoner guilty of doing grievous
bodily harm. The woman was sentenced to penal
servitude for life, and her husband to seven years
penal servitude.

EXECUTION AT MANCHESTER,

John Alfred Gell, 32, a wheelwright, was executed
at Strangeways Prison, Manchester, on Tuesday morn-
ing, for the murder of Mrs. Mary Miller, 42, at
Moston. He slept well the previous night, and on
Tuesday morning maintained the impassive demeanour
which he had manifested since his conviction. At
seven o'clock he had breakfast, and appeared to enjoy
it. Afterwards, up to the final scene upon the scaffold,
he was ministered to by the prison chaplain. While
being pinioned by Berry, who was the executioner,
he exclaimed, "Isabella Miller, I die an innocent
man." Isabella Miller is the daughter of the murdered
woman, and herself narrowly escaped with ker life
from the hands of the culprit. On the scaffold Gel]
said, "Isabella Miller, I hope you have now had your
revenge. Good bye. God bless you." Before the
white cap was placed over his head, he said, "I die
an innocent man. The Lord have mercy on my soul.
lam now about to leave this earth for ever." Hie
voice was firm, and he displayed extra.ordinary forti-
tude. When the bolt was drawn and he fell, his legs
twitched convulsively for a few seconds. The same
rope was used as that with which Dr. Cross was
hanged. An inquest was held on the body, and the
usual verdict was returned by the jury.

STANLEY'S EXPEDITION.

• The latest news received from the Upper Congo,
and notably from the camp at Yambunga, left in
charge of Major Barttelot, of the Stanley Expedition,
is looked upon in Brussels as reassuring. The fact
that Mr. Jameson, one of the major's assistants, as
announced in a recent message, was able to proceed
from Yambunga to Kasongo, near Nyangoue, where
Tippoo Tib is at present staying, in order to urge
the despatch of the second caravan which the Arab
chief is to send to Wadelai, is held to indicate that
security is now re-established in the region of Stanley
Falls, and that the Arabs in that district have submitted
to the authority of Tippoo Tib ; otherwise the latter,
as Governor of the Falls, would not have left his post
for Kason go. Mr. Ward, another assistant to Major Ba rt-
teldt, who brought to the coast the despatch sent from
Yambunga to the Committee of the Emin Relief Ex-
pedition, is now at Boma engaging fresh carriers,
with whom he will reascend the Congo as far as the
Falls to fetch the last batch of supplies left there by
Major Barttelot before proceeding to Wadelai. Mr.
Ward, with the assistant whom Major Barttelot will
have left behind at the Falls, will himself then start
to Wadelai. The Government of the Independent
Congo State, desirous of giving fresh evidence of its
sympathy with the expedition to the English Com-
mittee, has decided to take upon itself the cost of the
carrier assistance furnished to Mr. Ward, and to
convey him and his men free of charge to Stanley
Falls on one of the steamers of the LecirAdville
flotilla. A telegram in this sense has just been for-
warded by the King of the Belgians to M. Janssen,
Governor-General at Boma.

GOVERNMENT SECRETS.

The bill "to prevent the disclosure of documents
and information by means either of spies or of
breaches of official trust" has been printed and issued
with the Parliamentary papers. It is backed by Sir
Richard Webster, Mr. Stanhope, and Lord George
Hamilton, and it provides-1. Where a person acts as
a spy, that is to say—(a) enters an arsenal, dockyard,
office, &c., to take any such sketch or plan as may be
useful for the naval or military purposes of an enemy,
or to acquire any document, model, or information;
or (b) being outside any such place, takes any sketch
or plan other than for purely artistic purposes; or (c)
having without lawful authority acquired any docu-
ment, model, or information, at any time wilfully
communicates, or attempts to communicate, the same,
directly or indirectly, to a foreign State, he shall be
guilty of treason-felony, and in any other case be
guilty of a misdemeanour. 2. A person guilty of a
breach of official trust shall—(a) If the communica-
tion was made or attempted to be made directly or in-
directly to a foreign State, be guilty of tremon-felony ;
and (b) in any other case be guilty of a misdemeanour,
and on conviction be liable to imprisonment, with or
without hard labour, for a term not exceeding one
year, or to a fine, or to both imprisonment and fine.
