ST. GEORGE'S HALL

The encouragement mid to have been given to
music•hall " condones" by a very high personage, has
doubtless bad the effect of bringing together scone of these
" champions" at the above ball for comic Saturday morn-
ing concerts. If there is a demand for this concentrated
tomfoolery, there is no reason why it should not be
supplied.

THE POLITICAL ECONOMY CLUB OF PARIS.

TEI WAR QUIDITION.

The monthly meeting of the Political Economy
Club of Paris, held on Monday at the Grand Hotel, was
distinguished by the attendance of leading political econo-
mists from the chief states of Europe, now to Paris us com-
missioner, as jurors of the Universal Exkibition. M.
Moroi:Asp, of the Institut, presided ; supported by Mr.
Edwin Chadwick, correspondent of the Institut, and
member of the Political Economy Club of London ; by
Dr. Faucher, member of the Political Economy Club of
Berlin ; Dr. Newmann, member of the Political Economy
Club of Vienna ; by Max Wirth, the chief of the statistical
department of Switzerland; as well as by statists and
economists of other states. After dinner the questions of
the economical interests of populations as omnprotnised
by war, had the lead of all other subjects, and most power-
ful speeches on the general economical principles
applicable to the subject were made by the President, by
M. Wolowski, of the Institut ; by M. Jules Ition, of the
Institut, and by M. Faucher, which will doubtless be
printed in the transactions of the society.
Propositions for teazhing military exercises in all schools
with the view of diminishing the drain upon the working
population for military training in camps, form pert of a set
of propositions submitted to the Chamber of Deputies by
M. Jules Simon and others. The formation of a Cobden
Club for the continent is under consideration amongst frac-
traders and economists.

—The adjourned public meeting for nominating and fiaally
electing the representatives for the parish of St. George,
Hanoveroquare, for the central committee of the above
society, was held at Dr. Brewer's residence, 21, George-
street, Hanover-square, on Saturday evening. Dr. Brower
having been called to the chair, read the minutes of the
former meeting of the 4th instant, which took place at
Hanover-square Booms, and stated that the principal ob-
ject before them was to carry out the provision agreed upon
as the special feature of the constitution of the society,
according to which the power was vested in each of the
ten parishes comprised within the city of Westminster to
send a representativefor every 150 electors to the central
committee, with the further power of acting in their several
districts in the way they deem most conducive to the ob-
jects of the society ; thus precluding the possibility of
dictation, or the functions and influence of the society
falling into the hands of any clique or limited number of
persons.
