eatery to *mare the preliminary and recorded ascot, of the pro-
prietary of one half the amount of the drainage district; and we are
of opinion that such would be effectually removed by an amend-

STATE or hfavo.—The accounts to-day from Mayo are
of the most deplorable character. The destitution has be-
come so intense as to be almost beyond imagination ; the
seacoast is most miserable, but description fails to convey any
idea of the state of the island population, which in and
around Clew Bay is very numerous. Bantered, are subsist-
ing on turnip tope and a scanty sprinkling of meal ; and an
officer of the county, who limited returaed from Clare Island
and Imaisturk, states this he has seen in each several un-
happy creatures expiring in agony from utter want. These
wretches belong
.to the union of Westport, where no out-
door relief is given; and the workhouse is already over-
crowded; so much so, that about a mere of these miserable
people who were taken from those Islands and landed at
Westport were refused admission—there was no shelter for
them, and they are now wandering about the streets. Be-
sides, it frequently happens at this period of the year that
sevens' days elapse before it is possible to communicate be-
tween those islands and the shore.
DRYAD/CIL Lose or LTPE.—A great storm ravaged the
coasts of Mayo on the Bth inst., when over thirty poor crea-
tures lost their lives. Nine persons, natives of lunisturk,
were drowned in an endeavour to reach home with some
provisions for their starving children. Nineteen fishermen
were drowned in the Bound of Achill, and five others off
Achill Head the same day.

SCOTLAYD.
EDI7IIII7IIOA, Nov. 17.
Sir George Grey has been corresponding with the
Edinburgh authorities, regarding the state of fever
and amount of mortality ; bat whether this movement
on the part of the Home Secretary is general to all
large town., or special to Edinburgh, does not at pre-
sent appear. The Lord Provost solicited the use of a
line-of-battle ship, to be anchored in the Firth of
Forth, for the purpose of receiving convalescent
patients. Sir George declines furnishing the desired
accommodation, on the ground that from the exposed
situation of the Forth there would be great danger of
the patients catching cold, and suggests nstaid the
erection of fever sheds; and promises, when required,
to thesurepclieeeis necessary quantity of disinfecting fluids.
Sirc quite right. One line-of-battleship, or
a whole tof them, floating off Inch Keith, would
be a mere dallying with the stream, while the fountain
would remain untouched. It is not fleets of ships, but
regiments of scavengers that are wanted—it is not
I patients carried to the waters of the Forth, but toe

waters of the Forth carried to the patients, that is
needed. Lit the fire-engines play down a certain nom-
bar of closes per diem—let disinfectants be afterwards
' administered—let the infirmary fever-wiuds be shut
up, to prevent the concentration of disease in a crowded
and dingy part of the city—and let unemployed exca-
vators be set to the erection of fever sheds in the
Queen's Park, and then we may expect fever to abate;
bat until those or some other thoroughly bold mea-
sures are adopted, fever will encircle Edinburgh for
the winter, as tenaciously as the old man clang to the
shoulders of Sinbad the Sailor. What is wanted is

Dome body to take the initiative. The official boards
work in circles; the town council looks to the pare- ,
ehial board, it again to the commissioners of police, ,
and they in their turn to a new bill. But while
they wait for bills, and our destitution boards
for money, the mower, Death, is cutting down
four victims a day. Every day lost opens four graves.
In October the deaths from typhus in Edinburgh
were 129 ; and although the total mortality for the
month was below average (that result also taking
place during the year when cholera visited Edin-
burgh), still this is only a more substantial reason
why disease should be vigorously resisted in its
individual development. Fever may be said to be the
only
.prevailing diseams at present ; it should therefore
be singled out for attack, and perseveringly extir-
pated. Passing beyond the official range, why do
the George Combeees, Robert Chamberses, and James
Simpson, who have done so much to instruct other 1
places in sanitary matters, not come forward and form
an association for fumigating " their own romantic
town?" Surely " distance does not lend enchantment
to the view" in the matter of sanitary obligation.
During the past week 562 labourers have been
discharged from the Nithadale Railway, and 193 from
the Caledonian. The number still employed is 5,070.
Lord I)rumlanrig, the member for Dumfriesshire,
has contradicted a report that he intended voting for
the removal of Jewish disabilities. In a long letter
to the Dumfries Cuurier, his lordship states that the
reasoning on this point of the late Dr. Arnold ap-
pears to him to be more cogent than that of Mr.
• Macaulay.

UNIVERSITY Tcsre.—This question is coming to a
crisis. Independently of the proceedings in the law
courts, notices have been given in the town council
of two important motions on the subject I. To take
the opinion of counsel as to the best means of applying
the tests to all the present professors, should Mr. M'llouall
be rejected for non subscription. 2. To petition parliament
for the abolition of tests. The church is also threatened
with another non-intrusion commotion on a small scale.
Government presents the living of Girvan, in Ayrshire, to
the Rev. Mr. Conan. Out of 582 communicants, 40 object
to his grammar and style of preaching. Under the veto net
of the free church party a majority required to object before
the presbytery sanctioned the rejection of the presentee—but
under Lord Aberdeen's benefice act the presbytery can give
effect to the dissent of the minority, which in this case has
been done. The patronage, therefore, virtually resides in
the clergy, not in the crown or the people. It is also whis-
pered that the church courts have little good will to the pre-
venter+ of the present ministry—as the practice of having
clerical advisers formerly observed, has, it is alleged, been in
some recent appointments overlooked.
