LONDON, FRIDAY, NOV. 13.
IT were foolish, even if it were possible, to remain
blind to the force and tendency of that movement,
which presses for the physical, the moral, and intel-
lectual improvement and elevation of the working
classes. Those classes have taken the matter very
much themselves in hand, and when they do so, their
wishes and determination are not to be slighted.
Urged on by men of warm temperament, who become
their spokesmen ; countenanced by a respectable
portion of their employers, who, witnesses of the
depression of the lower classes and of the state of
crime which follows, are full of alarm and anxious
for remedy ; abetted by their clergy, who
righteously desire more influence and time for
instructing the young and reclaiming or encouraging
the old; and driven by the general current, which, to
the credit of the manufacturing towns and districts,
sets towards knowledge and mental cultivation, the
English operatives demand loudly and almost impera-
tively more leisure and less labour.
We call this a money-seeking and material age.
And true this may be of the middle classes, of the
men of capital, of profession, of wherewithal to begin
the world, aryl carve out prizes in it. The class
below them, the artizans, shared in this excite-
ment, this ambition for a time, when high
wages left room for saving, and when a
little frugality often sufficed to lift the ope-
rative, step by step, to the highest rank of the
manufacturing hierarchy. But those days are gone
by. The great prizes have been all drawn ; the upper
ranks of the industrial world filled from a more edu-
cated class than the original operative. He, poor
man, begins to despair of pecuniarily bettering himself.
He no longer hopes to climb the steps of Fortune's
ladder by frugality or industry. He has bethought
him, therefore, to try by another path, if not after
ambition, at least after happiness. He thirsts for
instruction, and for that preliminary to instruction,
leisure. If such be the state of the case, such the na-
ture of his craving, can he be refused ? We think not.
We are well aware of all the respectable, the
grave, the immense objections, so strong, that poli-
tical ecomony scouts the idea of curtailing the hours
of labour, and a Minister must deprecate legislation,
which enhances the cost, limits the power of produc-
tion, and which, should it check foreign trade, might
be visited back on the poor operative by a further
curtailment of wages, and by the cruel gift of leisure
without food. Bat the arguments for this view
of results, however good in theory, are not
borne out in practice. The laws for regulat-
ing and curtailing labour have been proposed
and carried during a period of increasing prosperity,
swelling exports and augmenting trade. Sinister
prognostics have always hitherto failed of fulfilment ;
it may be fairly reasoned, they will still do so. And
some, Mr. FIELDEN for example, carry this so far,
as to argue, that because our manufactures have never
yet been ruined, they never can decline.
We are far from adopting such optimist opinions.
Great staples of industry, like the sources o f human
health, often go on flourishing in despite of repeated
obstructions, and yet stop, decline slowly, or perish
rapidly from small and hidden causes. Look at our
woollen trade, and mark what has befallen, what is be-
falling it, in foreign markets. Is our superiority in the
other staples so secure? Two hours' curtailment of
the day, we are told, will make the difference of but
a halfpenny a shirt, and a penny a gown. But there
are neck-and-neck races for competition in industry.
And, though we may not perceive the advance of
other nations to an equality with us, their strides are
no less real. Should the successful champions of the
Ten Hours' Bill strike from the manufacturer
those advantages which just enable him to
undersell continental competitors, to what will
have tended their efforts? If their restric-
tion of the free use of capital frighten its owner
and his experience to foreign countries, which
he is less restricted, where is the gain ? The speakers
at Huddersfield may rejoice at the several laws which
limit the hours of labour, especially that which
prohibiting night-work to the young, extinguished
night-work in English factories. Let the philanthro-
pist who so rejoices but cross the Channel,
and on his first setting foot on shore at Bou-
logne, he will perceive a vast and splendid factory,
where the light is never quenched, where the mill
never stops, and where children and women toil
through the hour of darkness. And on inquiry he
will find that the capital is English, the directors
English, and the operatives, down to the red-headed
urchin, are English too. Are such the results that
Mr. OASTLER and Parson BULL contemplate ? Our
maritime laws and rate of recompense have given
nearly 100,000 British seamen to the United States.
'Take care we do not establish a law for the factories,
that will send capitalists and operatives to France, to
Austria, and to America.
But however serious these objections, these motives
of caution and of fear, it is impossible not to perceive,
that the ground for opposing the ten hours' agitation is
much diminished and weakened since last year. The
great Whig economical writers, in combating the plan
for curtailing the hours of work, ridiculed it as partial
legislation,and foretold that the opening of the markets
and free trade would give such an impulse to labour,
that it could command its own terms and its own
ease. These predictions have not yet been fulfilled.

Nimes arguments. If the . -
fined its efforts to parry' the measure by teppo-
vary excuses, and adjourn rather than oppnee
it, how can we expect the Whigs, or such
of the Whigs as deprecate further change, '
make, with success, any prolonged resistance ?
The Ten Hours Bill will no doubt be an open ques-
tion. The Cabinet will not carry, the Cabinet will
not oppose it. But with so much genuine philan-
thropy engaged in its service, joined by such formi-
dable aid from mischief, the manufacturers must
swallow the medicine-draught, however bitter. As
to its subsequent effects upon the body politic, that is
a point on which all sensible men mast continue to
entertain doubts and fears.

THE English Lancastrian schools are celebrated
throughout Europe ; our universities maintain their
ancient reputation ; but between these two ex-
tremes " there is a great gulph fixed ;" provision
has bees made for the highest and the lowest,
but the masses between the two extremes are
left to the chapter of accidents ; a chapter in which
the history of Squeers shows that there are some
very perilous sections. But it is in these neglected
;names that the strength of the nation rests, and it is
on the instruction that follows merely rudimental
education that the basis of individual happiness and
national prosperity mainly rests. It should be
enough to say in condemnation of the " no-
system " existing in England that no one can explain
its nature or its extent, and that there exist
no means for acquiring information on the subject.
That schools exist for the middle class we all know ;
but we do not know how many they are, by what
number they are attended, what is the nature of the
subjects professed to be taught, and what is the
amount of competency possessed by the teachers.
Some attempts are made to ensure the competency of
masters employed in teaching the children of the
poor; normal schools and training schools are in the
course of being established. Professorships and
tutorships in the universities can only be obtained by
decisive proofs of competency ; but there is no
guarantee for the efficiency of those who have to dis-
charge the most important of all national functions—
the training of the coming electoral body, and vir-
tually the future rulers of the empire. At the late
Athenaeum meeting in Manchester, the Archbishop
of Dublin dwelt on the importance of this subject
with his usual energy, and nearly at the same time a
practical comment on his speech was offered by the
opening of a new session of the Superior Commercial
School, established about three years ago in Paris.
Our readers are probably aware that NAPOLEON
laboured to bring all forms of education in France
under one grand system, denominated the University.
His plan in all its essential features is still maintained ;
no one can open a school for males or females who has
not undergone an examination and received a certifi-
cate of competency ; no one can be employed as tutor,
governor, or assistant, who has notgone through a simi-
lar ordeal. Correct registries are kept in every establish-
ment, and every school is subject to inspection by per-
sons appointed for the purpose, the inspection of female
boarding schools being always entrusted to ladies.
The complete organisation of this system is but of
recent date, and the establishment of it led to the
detection of many flagrant abuses and enormities,
particularly in boarding schools. Thus far the inter-
ference of the government was beneficial; but another
question soon rose, as to the duty of the university
to prescribe courses of instruction. In the colleges
and royal schools this was of course an easy task, for
the powers that conferred degrees and diplomas fixed
the amount of knowledge necessary fur graduation.
So far the system worked well ; but it was soon felt
that such a system made superabundant provision for
professional education, and none whatever for mer-
cantile or commercial life. To remedy this defect
secondary courses were established in some of the
colleges, and students after the second year were
allowed the option of pursuing the regular collegiate
or some more practical course of instruction.
In 1839 the municipality of Paris, following the
example of that of Lyons, founded a school of supe-
rior instruction in the Rue Neuve St. Laurent, for the
instruction of pupils in their own and other modern
languages, history, geography, chemistry, mathema-
tics, physics, natural history, and the arts of design.
The sum paid by each pupil is eight francs per
month ; but there are eighty places reserved for
pupils who have distinguished themselves at the
primary or Lancastrian schools, and the vacancies
are annually filled by a public examination (euneours)
in the Hotel de Ville.
No pupils are admitted into this school until
they have passed an examination proving them
capable of profiting by the superior course of
instruction on which they are about to enter,
and this examination has revealed some sin-
gular results. It is found that three-fourths of the
children educated in private schools are in the know-
ledge of orthography, grammar, arithmetic, &c., be-
low the average of the children educated in the charity
schools. It had been at starting the general belief
that the test for entrance was fixed too low, when
it was taken at complete acquaintance with the rudi-
ments taught in the primary schools ; but experience
has shown that it was rated too high ; and it has
been found necessary to establish a preparatory class
for those whose elementary knowledge had not fitted
them to enter on the course of the first year.
As the municipal schools are, like all others, under
the superintendence of the government inspectors,
the attention of the Minister of Public Instruction
was painfully directed to the fact, that the gratuitous
teaching of the poor was superior in quantity and
quality to that for which the more wealthy paid ; and
steps have been taken to render the system of exam-
ination, registration, and inspection, more efficient.
If we are to have a national system of education,
the most important part of the nation—the middle
classes—must not be neglected. Lamentable as is the
waste of time and money, at many of our English
schools, the irremediable injury wrought to indi-
viduals, and through them, to the society of which they
must hereafter be the constituents, is still more
deeply to be deplored. We do not oppose the prin-
ciple of free trade in education ; superinten-
dence does not exclude competition, it only
provides for the competency of those who are to
compete. The compulsory examination of apothe-
caries does not bind us to buy our drugs at a par-
ticular shop, but it greatly lessens our chance of pur-
chasing poison. If, however, such interference be
resisted, let us at all events establish the system
which all good schoolmasters ardently desire ; let a
court of examiners be constituted for schoolmasters,
to which they may present themselves if they please,
and leave it then to the common Sense of parents to
ask to see the certificates of competency before en-
trusting their children to teachers.
We have entered on a race of competition with all
mankind, and the nations around us are girding
themselves for the struggle. In France, especially,
the extension of what we may call industrial educe-
tion has become a primary object of national atten-
tion. Not only are the elementary principles of draw-
ing taught in all the primary schools, but in most the
pupils are practised in drawing from models of
machinery and from casts, provided for their use
by the municipality, aided, when occasion requires,
by the government. In the schools of superior
instruction, each as that of St. Laurent and Francis I.
at Paris, and la Martiniere at Lyons, e.c pupils are
not only grounded in the elements of the practical
sciences, but also taught there most useful applications
to the arts. Little laboratories, for example, are pro-
vided for all the students in chemistry, placed along
the walls of a common room, where they conduct

lished by unaided and isolated exertions of individuals;
the State must give its superintendence, municipalities
or localities must lend their aid; there must be publi-
city and responsibility to prevent jobbing and abuse.
But the educational system must extend further ;
it must be a recognised principle in administrative
appointments; certificates of school proficiency must be
required as qualifications for every place to which
civic or public authorities have the right of no-
mination. It is not, of course, to be required that
candidates should be educated at the official school ;
let them be educated where they or their parents
please, but let them be required to submit their com-
petency to the test of a public examination, and show
that they have acquired sufficient knowledge to fulfil
the duties of the station to which they are about to be
appointed. The necessity for such a rule may be
estimated by the fact, that when it was desired some
time ago to leara the amount of education possessed
by criminals in our prisons, a large proportion of
bridewells and minor places of detention sent no re-
turns, simply because the persons appointed to these
offices by the worshipful justices at quarter sessions
were unable to read or write themselves.

THE patrons of the WELLINGTON Statue are cer-
tainly put to very hard shifts and very strange pleas
in its behalf. The Times of yesterday argues, that
" if the statue have any defects to which connoisseurs
might object," it would be unadvi,atble to take the
figure down and place it nearer to the eye. This is
certainly one of the beat excuses on record, and is
tantamount to the undeniable principle, that a bed
work of art ought to be placed as much out of sight as
possible.
Then we are told that the "defective statue," though,
perhaps, bad in itself, still improves the " defective
arch." And as two negatives make an affirmative,
two frights constitute a beauty. We cannot admit
this. We may allow, that an ugly person may have
her ugliness diminished by juxtaposition with some-
thing uglier. And this may possibly be the case with
the arch. But it is a bad reason for leaving arch and
statue in the most conspicuous place of the whole
metropolis.
Then there is the awful expense of taking down.
The eye-sore is nothing. The brazen slur upon the
national taste, that would make every foreigner
indulge in a "broad grin," as he turned in the Park-ride
from the beautiful in Nature to the hideous in Art—
this is nothing ; or it is something not worth
paying to remove. The thing is up, and the thing
will do. Just as if it was so many square feet of
masonry done by the task. The argument is certainly
worthy of the statue, as a specimen of national taste.
The statue, not being likely to be allowed to main-
tain its place, inform' pauperis, for fear of the ex-
pense of removal, clings lastly to the Duke's mantle,
and beseeches his Grace's protection. " Your Grace
sate for me, your Grace saluted me with a friendly
nod; as your brazen effigy, your Grace should not
allow me to be pulled about."
This piteous appeal of the poor statue to the Duke,
puts us in mind of a similar appeal made to the same
illustrious personage, when he commanded in the
Peninsula. A poor devil of a commissary, in a very
great fright, ran into the Duke's tent, and besought
his protection ; " for," said the Commissary, " General
SHERBROOKE has threatened to horsewhip me."
"Did he so threaten you?" exclaimed the Duke,
with a tone of apparent compassion that awakened
the commissary's hope.
" He did, my lord, as sure as I am a living man."
"Then, my good fellow," rejoined the Duke,
" you'd better get off as fast as you can, for SIIER-
BROOKE is just the man to do it."
The brazen statue is like the poor commissary,
and the Duke of WELLINGTON shows for it, we are
certain, precisely the same degree and kind of com-
passion. He knew the commissary deserved the
licking, and he knows thatthe statue deserves cashier-
ing, having got promoted upon altogether false pre-
tences. No—the Times may labour as it pleases, it
will not get the WYATT statue included in the brevet.

FRANCE.—THE MARRIAGE OF PRINCE Louts
NAPOLEON.—SeveraI of the French papers are endeavouring
to discover a set-off in England to the marriage of the Duc
de Montpensier with the infanta, in that which they allege
is about to take place bet 'teen Prince Louis Napoleon and
Miss Coutts Burdett. We published a short paragraph yes-
terday from the C'onottlutionnel, making this announce-
ment. The Esprit Public of the 10th quotes from the
Journal de la Somme further particulars of this imaginary
alliance. The last-named paper says: "A letter which we
have received from London announces as positive the ap-
proaching marriage of Prince Louis lluonapute with Miss
Collat. Burdett, one of the richest heiresses in England.
Miss Coutts Burdett. grand-daughter of Sir Francis Burdett,
was adopted by the Duchess of St. AlM.ns, who died five
years ago, leaving her husbaed 10,0001. a year, and her
adopted daughter a fortune of thirty millions ! In point of
money the marriage of Prince Louis will be a pendant to that
of the Duc de Montpensier. There is in it sufficient to ex-
cite at the Tuileries much jealousy and regret that there was
left no marriageable prince of the *House of Orleans for whom
might have been asked the hand and the thirty millions of
i Miss Coutts Burdett."

ITALY.—THE MARRIAGE OF TILE DUKE DE
BORDEAUX.—We find the following in the Esprit Public :
"The marriage of the Duke de Bordeaux contains incidents
which it is well for the public to he acquainted with ; it is a
consequence only of the Madrid nuptials, but our profound
diplomatista were far from expecting to reap this fruit of
their skill. We have already said that M. de Metternich on
all occasions systematically opposed every project of mar-
riage proposed "for the young prince. He had some
ante to overcome on the part of the Imperial family : but he
succeeded in removing it by demonstrating that Austria was
obliged to act with great prudence towards France, who had
the power to excite dangerous disturbances in Italy, and that
the concessions of the French government in this lattsr
country depended upon the proceedings of Austria, above all
with regard to the celibacy of the legitimist pretender, of
which the cabinet of Paris would make a national question.
But as soon as the Spa..ish complications were known,
the Empress of Austria a woman of strong character,
and. sister of the Duchess-Dowager of Modena, thought
that the danger was no longer so great in presence
of the rupture of the entente cordiale. She thought herself
able, therefore, to negotiate with her sister, in perfect safety,
the union of her niece with the Duke de Bordeaux. The
affair was conducted with the greatest secresy, without pass-
ing through the Austrian chancery, and the letters of the
two sisters thus escaping the imperial censorship. All was
agreed upon and executed with the most perfect understand-
ing. Dispensations from Rome were necessary, and were
immediately obtained from the head of the Church in the
same manner as M. Rossi had obtained them for the Duke
dc Montpensier without making the subject a question of
diplomacy; and when the intelligence of their having been
granted reached M. de Broglie, the French Chargi, d'Affaires,
it was too late. The marriage was on the eve of being ac-
complished by procuration at Modena without the possibility
of obtaining redress for a fait accompli.
NETHERLANDS.—TUE HAGUE, Nov. 10.—We
are informed of the death of one of the superior officers of the
Netherlands army, who acquired a great reputation by his
conduct in the East Indies, and in his owu country, in the
most trying circumstances. Lieut.-General Van Geen died
at his country seat of Rysovick. After the battle of Water-1
100 he was appointed to the importantgoveniment of Namur,
where he acquired general confidence. His thorough know-
ledge of the organisation of an army appeared in the com-
posing of the battalion of infantry with which he was
charged in 181 d at Louvain, and afterwards in India, where
he arrived in 1820. In 1824 and 182-3 he was placed at the
bead of the expedition against Celebes, the success of which
greatly contributed to confirm our power in the East Indies.
In the war of Java, Lieut.-General Van Gem equally dis-
tinguished himself, and when he returned to the Nether-
lands, he was call d in 1830 to new dangers, under the most
critical circumstances.

POLAND.—In the small town of Konin, near
Posen, says the Breslau Gazette, a little Christian girl
having disappeared, the people pretended that she had been
stolen and killed by the Jews of the place. The burgo-
master, upon this, called the Jews together, and ordered
them to restore the victim and designate the malefactor. In
the meantime the populace armed themselves with scythes,
clubs, tic., and threatened to massacre all the Jews. Such
would probably have been the result if a retired officer had
not gathered together about thirty invalided soldiers, who
resided in the town, ani armed them so as to keep the crowd
in check. But this armed intervention would probably have

gbt court.
WINDSOR, TRURSDAIN—The Queen and Prince
Albert took their accustomed early morning walk. His
Royal Highness Prince Albert, accompanied by his Serene
Highness Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar and Lord Byron,
and attended by Major-General Bowies and Captain the
Hon. A. Gordon, enjoyed the sport of shooting this morn-
ing. The Royal Family took their usual exercise this
morning on the Eastern Terrace and grounds around the
Castle.
Lord Portman left the Castle to-day.
Her Royal Highness the Princess Caroline of Hesse,
attended by Baroness de Scheel and Baron Meysenbuch,
left Cashiobury Park, Herta, the residence of her Majesty
the Queen Dowager, yesterday afternoon, for Windsor
Castle.
The Duchess of Cambridge, the Princess Mary,
the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Meck-
lenburg Strelitz, and Prince Frederic of Hesse, returned to
Kew yesterday from Windsor Castle.

The Nomination of the Sheriffs for the ensuing
year took place yesterday (the morrow of St. Martin), in the
Court of Exchequer, at 'Westminster, before the Lords of her
Majesty's most Honourable Privy Council. Before the pro-
ceedings commenced, the Right Hon. Charles Wood entered
the Court, in his Gold Robe of office, as Chancellor of the
Exchequer, and was sworn before the Lord Chief Baron and
the Barone of the Exchequer. The Lords of the Privy Coun-
cil present at the nomination were—the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, the Lord President, the Lord Chancellor, the Lord
Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench, the Chancellor of the Ducny
of Lancaster, the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas,
the Secretary of State for the Home Department, and Mr.
Baron Parke. Seven of the Puisne !Judges also assisted at
the nomination. Mr. C. Greville was the Clerk of the
Council in waiting. Their Lordships and the Judges having
been sworn, the nomination proceeded in the usual form, the
English Counties and afterwards the Welsh Counties being
called over, together with the names of the three gentlemen
nominated for each county last year. The Judges who had
been on the respective circuits, supplied a name in lieu of
that of the present Sheriff, and in cases where their lord-
ships allowed gentlemen (nominated last year), to be cx.
cused from serving the office, and their names to be taken
off the roll ; the judges further submitted other names to
supply the vacancies; three gentlemen being nominated for
each county. The following is the list :
