Sixoutrit Kgrinsiox.—An alarming explosion occurred
on Thursday evening at the Bold Arms hotel, Southport.
Two men entered the vaults, carrying with them a 32-
pounder Armstrong shell, which they said they had found
on the shore opposite the batteriee One of the men
foolishly 'implied a light to the shell, which had not been
emptied of its charge An explosion followed, severely
injuring one man and causing considerable damage to the
premises. Neither of the men concerned has since been
found.

Since the commencement of the Merchant Shipping
Act, 1867, 390 vessels were reported as defective on

were also 121 vessels reported for being overloaded or
improperly loaded, all of which, upon inspection, were
declared unr-de.

COMION-SENEE TREATMENT Or Rewsurrre.—The
Reports on the Laws of Italy, Denmark, and Sweden,
relative to the punishment of fraudulent bankrupts,
which have just been published, show that persons
about to become bankrupt cannot be advised to leave
England for any of those countries. If every Italian
bankrupt who " fraudulently represents himself as •
debtor for sums not owed by him" is really subjected
to imprisonment with hard labour, the practice might
profitably be extended to this country. Whether
" those guilty of simple bankruptcy' should be
"punished with imprisonment for not less than one
mouth or more than two years" is another question.
The provision is stringent. It might perhaps be
, salutary. In Denmark 'the ordinary prison fare" is
not considered disagreeable enough for some
bankrupts, who for alternate periods of five days are
accordingly confined to bread and water. This
happens to them, for instance, if they "illegally favour
some of the creditors at the expense of the others." In
Denmark "gross irregularities in the keeping of his
books," apart from fraud, subject the bankrupt to
Imprisonment. "Extravagant living," resulting In
bankruptcy, is visited with a similar penalty. In
Sweden, too, mere recklessness is criminal. A. man
who gambles or "thoughtlessly enters into security for
others," or has lost amounts and resources, "will, on
becoming bankrupt, be sent to prison.' ' Without
expressing an opinion on the policy of all the
particular provisions, we may call attention to them as
Illustrating the comparative leniency of our own law.

THE CRUM Cese.—" Fairplay" in the Bristol
Mercury says :—"Having just rd that judgment has
been passed upon the two prisoners in this case, and
it is brought in "Wilful murder," I merely wish to
know as an Englishwoman, whether it is murder
when the person killed is an accessory to the fact?
The woman who went to the Colmers was no child of
15 or 16, but a woman of 36 or 37; she had had
children, and, therefore, was not ignorant of the risk
she ran—she well knew there was danger. When, by
our English law, such people as the Slantons, Alice
Rhodes, Ac., get off, where it has been murder of the
worst, most cruel type, and for their own ends, do you
think it justice that these two should be convicted of
wilful murder when, as I before stated, the woman
knew the risk she ran? I full well know that the
crime they have committed Is a very great one; but
is it so great or so bad as the Stanton case? That
offenders in such cases ought to be punished most
severely I quite agree; but there is a certain amount
of mercy that ought at times to temper justice, and in
this case penal servitude for life would have been
severe in itself." .
