Tim TAT' MITILDIIIOI7II ATTACKS ON MIL PILK,
DIMON, M.P., AND ML Z. HAWKINS, AT THE WIIST-CND.
—Yesterday, by order of the government the Commissioners
of the Metropolitan Police offered a reward of HO. foe the
discovery of the miscreants who committed the Davao
assaults at the West-end on Mr. Hawkins on the 14th inst.,
and on Mr. Pilkingtoo, M.P., on the 16th, when both gen-
tlemen lost their watches, and Yr. Pilkingtoo in addition
some ivory railway tickets enneected with the London and
North-Western and other railer:pi. Pardon is promised to
accomplices, and information ie to be given to the polio' at
Scotland-yard.

The decisions of the jurors are, it appears, doomed
to give nobody satisfaction. A most extraordinary
instance of at least carelessness is alleged to have
occurred in the horology department. A prize
medal was given to a Swiss artist for a chrouo-
meter which he himself considered to be the least
valuable of his whole stock, and the case
of which actually never was unlocked until after
the jurors had given in their award. The chro-
nometer is in the custody of Mr. Linton, and that
gentleman can testify that the case was never
opened until after the jurors had decided on the
class. Matters like this considerably embarraits
the Commissioners, although, of course, they are
personally innocent. The case of hardship respect-
ing Carte and Rudall's flute having given rise to a
rumour that an extra meeting of the jury was to be
called to repair the mischief, Mr. Sandford has
deemed it neoessary to issue a notice to the effect
that the awards of all juries having been submitted
to a council consisting of the chairmen of juries
before publication, must on publication be consi-
dered as final, and entirely without appeal. We
are very sorry to hear that such is the case, as we
fully expected that the commissioners would, in the
exercise of their supreme discretion, have found
means to correct mistakes such as those we have
already noticed, and a hundred similar ones which
are quite as much complained of.
Amongst the visitors yesterday were a very
, interesting party, consisting of the domestic and
farm servants of Osborne, franked up by their
gracious mistress, her Majesty having unselfishly
determined that the privacy which her own sorrow
I requires shall not be rendered compulsory on her
dependents. The visitors made a most respectable
and contented-looking party, and seemed very
much to enjoy the wonders of the Exhibition.
The following schools and institutions were also
represented :—lnfant Orphan Asylum, Wan-
stead, 21, expenses paid by committee ; Wood-
ford parish school 73, paid by committee ;
Wrayabury School, 58, paid by Mr Scholefield ;
Ramsey British School, Hants, 52, by the gover-
nors ; Homey National School, 65, by Lady Pal-
merston ; Mr. Barclay's school at Walthamstow,
46, franked by Mr. Barvlay. There were also
several cavalcades of vans, evidently from the
country, and the passengers by hich had no doubt
been sent up under the auspices of local organi-
zations.

Mr. Linton's ingenious and creditable plan for
making his attractive piping bullfinch a collector of
subscriptions for the distressed operatives of Lanca-
shire thrives apace. Five, eix, seven pounds a day
are collected, and the public warmly sympathise
with the benevolent idea of the exhibitor. Why
should not the plan be extended ? There are, for
example, M. Lambert, who plays so beautifully on
the piano in the French Court, and whom people
crowd round every day ; why should not he have •
box for Lancashire on his instrument ? Messrs.
Roskell's diamond grinder is also a great attraction ;
money might be collected there, and, in fact, in a
dozen other places ; for the public like the idea,
and would enjoy their amusement all the more if
they thought it was made contributory to the
relief of their poor brethren down in the north.
Visitors will do well to take a turn iu the American
department and have a look at the splendid photo-
graphs which have recently been hung up there.
We do not, however, recommend them merely as
works of art, but as including portraits of the prin-
cipal celebrities of the present war. There are the
President, and his famous secretary, Mr. Seward,
the redoubtable "Jeff. Davis," and General Beau -
regard, with several other transatlantic notabilities,
both civil and military. The portraits are of large
size, and give an admirable idea of the characters of
these now celebrated and conspicuous men.
The highest temperature yesterday, taken by
Negretti and Zambia's patent thermometers, was at
3.30 p.m. the nave, 07.1 ; in the galleries,6B.6.

KING'S COLLIFOR SCHOOL.

Yesterday being speech day at King's College
School, a large and fashionable company assembled in the
hall of that institution, under the presidency of the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, when the recitations were
delivered in a manner to defy the cavil of the most captious
critic. The right hon. gentleman at the conclusion of this
portion of the proceedings addressed the meeting, and said
he regretted that other engagements prevented him from
enjoying the pleasure of witnessing the remainder of the
ceremonial of the day, but be could not yield up to any
other the post he had the honour to occupy without ex.
pressing the great gratification which he had derived from
witnessing the efficiency of the arrangements so far. Many
years„had elapsed since hehad last the pleasure of bearing the
speeches at King's College-school, and he had to congratu-
late the Rev. Dr. Major upon the high point of excellence
to which he had brought, and at which he sustained, the
scholarship of his pupils. (Hear, hear.) They had listened
to an original composition of great excellence, they had re-
citations in the modern languages, and else recitations in
those ancient languages which he hoped would ever there
be made the foundation of a truly liberal education. The
manner in which Dr. Major's pupils performed the parte
assigned them distinctly proved that they had not
only studied the words but entered into the spirit
of the great writers whose works they recited.
The school, under the care and guidance of the Rev. Dr.
Major, bad proved itself a worthy appendage to the col-
, lege, and he hoped they might both long continue to be
fountains of social intelligence and of religious blessings to
the community, for whose benefit they had been established
and whose confidence they had ever enjoyed. The right hon.
gentleman, who was loudly cheered, then retired, accom-
panied by Mrs. Gladstone.
The Rev. Dr. MAJoR having read over the list of the
