We need scarcely disclaim all sympathy with
the conventional grievances and stock appeals to
public sympathy urged by ticket-of-leave men, and
only regret that as a body they are not treated
with greater and more consistent severity than is
usually the case. But there does seem to ba
some hardship in this case, and it is worth inquir-
ing more particularly where it lies. Practically
Iti`Dorosi.x is condemned to eight years' penal
servitude for being drunk and disorderly, as, dur-
ing the two years and a half that have elapsed
since he received his license, be had been charged
with no offence until the occurrence of this row
last week. But, however harsh it may appear,
there is nothing whatever illegal in this sentence.
It is in strict conformity with the conditions on wh'ch
alone, according to the theory of the system, these
licenses or tickets-of-leave are granted. They are
liable to be forfeited at any time by the smallest
act of misconduct on the part of their possessors.
Any offensive act or instance of disorderly conduct,
any suspicious habits, even, or disreputable asso-
ciates, proved against a convict conditionally libe-
rated, are sufficient ground for revoking his
license. Without even committing what the law
recognises as a crime, the ticket-of-leave man, un-
less he is careful also to avoid the apFearaece
of evil, may at any time be arrested and re-im-
prisoned for the remainder of his term of penal
servitude. That is, we believe, the theory of the
system, and the letter of the existing law on the
subject. But every one knows that the p-actice
is altogether different, and the law in the vast
majority of cases no better than a dead letter.
The notorious fact is that convicts liberated on
ticket•of-leave may commit not only crime, but
almost any number of crimes, without having their
license revoked, And it is this, of course, that
constitutes the peculiar hardship in the pre-
sent case. The best laws may become the
instrument of injustice and oppression if
they are administered in a partial, capri-
cious, and uncertain manner. Its impossible
to deny that this is to a large extent true of the
ticket of-leave system, as hitherto carried out in
this country. The actual working of this im-
portant machinery of penal discipline has justly
become a byeword and reproach. it realises
nearly all the worst vices that can infect the ad-
ministration of justice, being lax, arbitrary, and
utterly unreliable. The only rule that can be
laid down with regard to the judicial treatment of
ticket-of-leave men appears to be that of a long
course of blind indulgence relieved by exceptional
instances of capricious severity. Under these cir-
cumstances it is hardly surprising that the system,
excellent in itself, should prove in its working com-
paratively powerless for good and potent only for

On Sunday last a grand court dinner was given
at the palace of Lathen, in honour of the Prince of Wales
and the Danish princes. In addition to the band of the
Guides, the Lyrical Society of Brussels were in attendance,
and sung some of the most beautiful airs in their repertory.
King Leopold, in his own name and in the name of his
illustrious guests, complimented the director on the excel-
lence of their performance. On Monday • splendid review
of all the troops in the capital took place. The Prince
of Wales, Prince Christian of Denmark, the Duke
of Brabant, and the Count of Flanders, all in
uniform, and surrounded by a brilliant staff, arrived
on the review ground at 11 o'clock. Their Royal Highness
the Duchess of Brabant and the Danish Princesses arrived
soon after in a carriage din Doormen/. The troops, who
were drawn up in three extensive lines, were under the
command of the Minister of War. On the arrival of the illus-
trious visitors the hands of the various regiments played the

An alarming accident occurred a few days ago in
the neighbourhood of Chamouni. Mr. Longman, the well-
known London publisher, was crossing with his eon, F. W.
Longman, one of the glaciers between Chamonni and the
The Noire. Suddenly young Longman disappeared from
the group. An immediate and anxious search was made
for him. The guides were not long in discovering that
the unfortunate gentleman had fallen down a deep
crevasse. One of the guides being tied by • rope
was lowered into the crevasse, and on reaching Mr.
Longman, be seised him by the collar of his coat, and they
were both pulled up • portion of the way. The horror of
his father can well be conceived, when he saw the guide
come to the surface of the ice alone. He we. able to drag
Mr. Longman rap a certain height, but in consequence of hi.
great weight he was obliged to let go hie hold, Mr. Long-
man falling still deeper into the crevasse. A rope and strap
were then lowered to Mr. Longman, and he was requested
to place the Liter round hi. body. This, he replied, he was
unable to do, in consequence of the benumbed state of his
bands. The other and stronger guide then descended by
means of the rope into the crevasse, and happily succeeded
in bringing Mr. Longman's son safe to the surface, very
little, if at all, injured.

12th inst. by the death of his lordship's eldest son, Lord!
Edward Henry Cecil. The deceased was born on Christmas-
day, 1834, and was therefore not quite 28 years of age. At
an early age he entered the navy, and became a lieutenant '
in 1855, and commander in 1857.

COSeEDLESTML—Tbe favourite aid crack steamer
lona was withdrawn from her station between Glas-
gow and Ardrishaig cc Monday last, the beautiful
saloon steamer Fairy taking her place. We are
told that this withdrawal is caused by the boos
having been sold to the Confederates in America. It
is also rumoured that the fine Belfast peddle steamer
Giraffe, and the West Highland steamer Clydesdale have
also been disposed of to the same parties. If this be Una
then the very flower of our Clyde passenger steamers will
have been withdrawn, to make room, it is hoped, for others
equal at least, if not superior to those we apish have lost.
The lona is a steamer of world•wide fame. 13as has car-
ried thousands upon thousands of passengers over the famed
royal route for years, many of them from the most remote
pert. of the glob. ; and go where she will, she will main-
tain the character of our Clyde builders and engineers.

a fact which, if true, is not without importance at

returned from a voyage to Africa with specimens of a plant
the name of which is still kept a secret, and which, sub-
jected to some chemical process, yields& substaacie perfectly
resembling cotton. Several pieces of stuff have been woven
out of it, and specimens submitted to the Emperor of the
French. These stuffs are described as stronger than cotton
tisane, equal in fineness, and 60 per cent. cheaper. The
pima abounds both in Africa sod America, end will thrive
very well in Algeria. The Nord adds that a company is
being formed to work this guidance on a large sods.
