our obituary of Saturday last was announced the isoth•
atter a tedious Mimes, of a gallant soldier, whose soemccy
will long be cherished by his comrades of the old Bengal
army—Lieut.-Colonel James Fraser C.B. At an early
age he entered the caysliv service of Fraser,
Mast India Com- I
pany, on the Bengal establishment. Those who knew him,
in his prime will recall the tall powerful form, the mealy
presence, and the strikingly handsome and soldier-
like bearing of the man. A splendid horseman,
a fine swordsman, 6 feet 6 inchesin height,
mounted at the head of his squadron, and tower-
ing far above them all, he seemed the very beau
ideal of a stalwart cavalry soldier ; and when the day
came to prove his manhood in actual warfare be did not
belie the opinion formed of him. During the Affgban war'
it fell to his lot to lead a charge of native cavalry against a
body of Alleluia horse commanded by the Ameer Host
Mohammed Khan. The opposing forces were nearly equal. '
His men were splendidly mounted, and his heart beat high
with the coveted opportunity of distinction. Gallantly he
led them, and plunged into the thickest of the enemy, huti
his men failed to support him. Just before reaching the
foe he cast one look blends his men, and found that, save I
his brother officers there was
twenty yards of him. Assailed on all sides his reins
were speedily cut, and be himself severely wounded
—his sword arm being nearly severed. (if seven
officers who accompanied him into action three were ,
killed outright, two, including himself, severely wounded, '
and two only cam* out of action unscathed. He owed his'
own escape to the speed and vigour of the powerful
English horse which earned him, and which (unguided)
bore him book to camp. But he came back a maimed man
for life, deeply deploring the cowardios of his men. This
• mischance gave a tinge of bitternre to all his future life.

plied with hot and add water, together with all neesseary
eananiences, sre attached to way door, and a chew-
fal airing ground, with covered verandah, forms an
additional aurae of enjoyment for the poor sufferers.
The may wards are separated from the main
building, and are approached by • handsome corridor,
in which is placed a drinking-fountain for the use of the
out-patitals. The upper ward is reserved for the recep-
tion of epileptics, and the lower for paralysed patients.
Each ward has its day-room and library, and the system of
lavatories and baths corresponds with that in the female
porn et while a garden, with balcony and sesta, and open
gannagem, affords facilities for air and excretes. In addi-
tion to the baths attached to each suite of rooms, • series
of baths have been constructed on the basement of the
building for the use of the out as well as the in patients.
These comprise a Human, or as it is more oommonly
ailed, • Turkish bath, sulphur baths, douche baths of
various kinds, including the needle bath, and the ordinary
bee, cold, and shower baths. The arrangement of all
these bathe in the small epees which could be appropriated
to their reception has been very skilfully contrived, and
reflects as slush ("edit upon the architect as does the con-
'treat= of the baths theassives upon Mr. T. C. Hood,
by whom they have been supplied. The whole oast of
this bath-room has not much exceeded 8001. Special
features of the hospital are an electrical room, lavishly
filled with apparatus fur medical purposes, and altogether
unique in this country, and (immediately adjoining) a
gymnasium supplied with the mechanical appliances which
have been found moat useful in the treatment of paralysis
by movements, and also with apparatus for the exercise of
epileptics. But the amazement of the hospital is not its
sole claim to notice. The suites of rooms are furnished with
an attention to comfort very unusual in English hospitals.
The furniture of the day-rooms, particularly un the female
aide, is not simply useful, but highly ornamentaL The doors
are covered with warm, striped matting, or brightly
coloured lumptulicon. The bedsteads are slightly
ornamented, and the coverlets are of warm colours.
The walls of both day-rooms and dormitories are
hung with handsome engravings and illuminated
texts. Thus furnished there is an air of comfort
and brightness about the wards pleasiag in the extreme.
Nor is this extra comfort and sppearanoe of luxury ob-
tained at the sacrifice of the more important objects of the
institution. The most expensive portions of the furniture
are gifts of patrons and patronesses of the institution,
while the superiority of the other articles is the result
rather of skilful selection than of lavish expenditure. The
expense of the alterations in the building, and the fitting
and furnishing of the new wards, has amounted to about
0,0001., and that sum has been raised entirely through the
exertions of the ladies' committee. The portions of the
hospital which were opened yesterday were the upper
wards, for men and women respectively, and the new
baths. The ceremony commenced with a thanksgiving
acacias, which was valorised by the Rev. J. Bach, KA-,
mew of St. George the Martyr, isitor of the
hospital, and the Bey. G. L. Hallett 8.C.L., deputy
minor canon of Westminster and chaplain of the instite"
tion ; and concluded with • aonoert, in which Medians
Madams Wells, Melanie Hartley Cellini, Miss Beans-
ten, Miss Ada Ponies!, Miss Janet King, Mr. Donald
King, and Mr. Wallworth took part Mr. H. Bevington
acting as conductor; and an exhibition of the magic
lantern by Mr. A. homer. During the afternoon mat of
the visitors inspected the several wards of the institution
and witnessed with Benefaction the arrangements for the
comfort of the unfortunate object, of the charity. At
present there are only ;l4 in-patients, but the opening of
the new wards will enable the number to be raised to GO.
Sines the opening of the hospital 8,000 outpatieuts have
received medical treatment ; and yesterday pensions of
, 101. or 111. per annum were granted to five incurable
estioa I guffaws.

Mr. BONHAM amid it was the duty of the vestry to sup.
port Dr. Rogan, if only out of gratitude for what he had
does for St. Arm's. It was a strange thing that Dr.
Rogers held a testimonial presented four years ago by the
very guardians who bad suspended him, and in which
they spoke in the highest terms of his services. The
interest taken in Dr. Rogers b 7 ?anon of inflame outside
was very remarkable, and be had in his present possession

I fresh persecution. Four of five weeks had elapsed with-

unless some step was taken a question would be put to
Mr. Sclater-Booth in the House of Commons respecting
the matter. (Hear, hear.) There could be no doubt
sitar all this was a ease of spite, and that all the charges
emanated from the clerk to the heard, they seeming to
be unable to think for themselves. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. BOMBER said the result of Dr. Rogers's efforts showed
their necessity. At one tune there were 700 people in the
workheme, when there should have been but 450, indi
acting very plainly that the doctor had not cried out with-
out due cam. The rector had borne his testimony by
stating officially that since Dr. Rogers had been at the
Strand union he had always sent sick persons to the
board, firmly convinced that their treatment would be of
the best description. Although the guardians had been
incensed against their medical officer all these years, they
hail never succeeded in btrwasine • load fide charge of ea•
glad home to him. (Hear, bear.)
Mr. MUMMERY mentioned,to illustrate the animus
which he attributed to the guardians, that there was one
medical officer connected with their union who systeleati.

quent oomplaints, was allowed to go on uncensored, until.
at length, his neglect became so great that be resigned of

the stronger power mid .and the weaker, and if Ireland
had attempted by penal measures to make Roman catholi-
cism the predominant religion of Eneland, and were to
sepport out of r revenues an Irish Roman catholic
church, the pee of England would sot resist to the
death? (Cheers.
Bir H. Hoses proposed a cordial vote of thanks to the
chairman for presiding. That gentleman was a talented
supporter of the voluntary system, and be had not only
thoroughly carried oat that principle, but had come to

(Hear, hear.) The present difficulties involved the whole
question of the tenure of land and the repeal of the uni

to which lan he could never agree. So far am the i
church question was concerned, they had •a perfect right
to say to their rulers, restore to Ireland its church.

The second meeting of the English branch of
this league, which has been established on the basis
adopted at the Geneva Conference, was held but night at
No. IM, Bouverie-street. Mr. EDMOND BEALI', the pre-
sident, occupied the chair ; and there were shout a dozen
other members or friends present. Letters of exams and
sympathy were read from Mr. Goldwin Smith, Dlr. A. C.
Swinburae, M. Louis Blanc, Mr. Ernest .Jones, and ethers.
Mr. Smith's letter contained the following remarks :
" The connexion between your two objects—pesos and
liberty—hi only too manifest. While Europe is thus
cursed with vast standing armies, the blind inatrumenta el
arbitrary power, there can be no liberty ; and despot
will always have an excuse for maintaining these armies so
long se they can keeyea.liii the spirit of war. May we hope
that the day will at arrive when the soldiers them-
selves will perceive t they for whose benefit the
military is apparently kept up are themselves, in
reality, the greatest sufferers of all; and that
the pittance which they receive under the condi-
fons of constant peril, privation, and h omelesoness,
the work of mutual slaughter or for the suppression of
national freedom, is poor to the advantages and comforts
which, in common with their emancipat•al fellow-citizens,
they might enjoy as members of • peaceful community in
prosperous and happy homes r
Mr. BEAL'S thought that the letter and attendance
that night were encouraging, and that the small barque
which they lad launched the other night would become a
goodly vessel. If proof were wanted of the necessity of
• such a league It was the action just taken by the French
• government to raise their army to above • Million men,
because, as the minister said. Italy could place 900,000
soldiers is the field ; Austria, 1200,000; North Germany,
L 1,300,000; and Sunda, 1,400,000. Snob a mate of things
was a scandal, shame, and reproach to our Christian
'Motion.
A treasurer and • sub-colismittes to draw up • constitu-
tion of the [sack were appointed, sad Mr. Bailee was
requested te draw rap an address to the people of the
United Kingdom. It appeared, however, that the learned
gentleman had already done this, and he proceeded to read
him draft. It was to
highly approved of that it was at
loner adopted.
The branch then adjourned.
