TECHNICAL EDUCATION.

The discussion on this subject was renewed at
an adjourned meeting of the Birmingham Chamber of
Commune yesterday afternoon; Mr. Gawp Dixon, M.P.,
in the ails.. Mr. Samuelson, M.P., attended, and ad-
dressed the meeting at some length. Having adverted to
the importance of the subject, he reminded his auditory
that the subdivision of labour was carried on to a pada'
extent in Birmingham than in any other ommerMel com-
munity, and now that the supply of raw material obtained
is the locality was no longer to, be had on each edema-
terms in some other districts, that whieh was
tleftr—us as
their prestige—must be maintained ; that could only
be done by the active use of their own intelligent* as
employers, and the intelligence of those in their
employ, which must In folly developed ; their pa-
llid= must be kept up to the mark, not by
Mani/al education oWy, but by the ordinary education
of the workman, for it was on account of the deficiency in
that respect that much of the workmen's incapacityirose.
As reanufacturen we could not afford to proceed the
same wasteful processes es formerly, and whi our
natural advantages enabled us to pursue ; bet before they
called upon the state for stridence it must be Mown to
the government they were doing something for themselves.
In Birmingham he was happy to say that much was being
done through the instrumentality of the Midland
Sate ; when they bad put forward their own efforts they
would be fairly entitled to go to the government and oak
for something at present be thought they were not re.
easing as much as they were entitled to. The hon. pn-
Hereon alluded to what was being done at the school in
Jormyn-dreet, and to the expenditure ; also to the 67,00 W.
expended at South Kensington, which in his opinion was ex-
cessive in comparison with the amount given for the pro.
motion of education in science and art all over the
country. What they had to do in a town situate like
Birmingham was to seek science in its application to maim-
futures. After all that had been said about our defects as
a manufacturing nation, in his opinion we at this moment
stood at the bead of manufacturing industry. A discus-
sion mimed, which lasted several boors ; it was of a some.
whet desultory character. Mr. Walter Williams, who
took part in it, remarked, pertinently enough, they were
all doctors, and no patients. He regarded (he mid) the
School of Mines as a failure, and inhis opinion it was the
duty of government to see that the people were instructed
elementarily, and in art and science. In a district like Bk.
'Hingham a good school of chemistry was wanted, in order
that the workmen might pin a knowledge of metal-
lurgy. A great evil in this country was that
me had always been too lavish with our material
end too sparse with our lebour ; in the manufactories of
the eontioent the masters IMO educated ,• in this country
the masters must begin by instructing themselves. Mr.
Payton, a jeweller, said that the less and boys in the
manufactory with which he was connected were so
lamentably deficient in elementary knowledge that to
siassept to Mask Mem scientific knowledge was oat of the
question ; when in his business they employed a French
workman they found that he was acquainted with the
whole process of his art from beginning to end. With re.
spect to their diP, he said that if the taste of the
workmen required improvement, so did that of the
customers ; there were many articles not very
beautiful in design which bold best. In refer.
ems to German goods, the speaker mid that they
were beautiful in design, but did not wear.
Ryland, Mr. O'Neill, and others engaged in the silver
trade, followed, each of them admitting the necessity for
more education of some kind. Ultimately the following
resolution was posed That the council be instructed
to request the ssociated Chambers of Commerce to in-
form Lord Robert Montage that, in the opinion of this
chamber, it is of the utmost importance that government
schools of science should be established in the great centres
of industry for the purpose of giving systematic technical
education both to the middle and vrerg dames."

LONDON WOZEING-lIIN'S AMOCIATION. —The
annual general meeting of this meociatica the held last
night at the Bell Inn, Old Bailey ; Mr. George Potter in
the chair. In opening the promethne the chairman said
it had been resolved upon by a suboanmittes that an
agitation should be orgathed with a view to earn the
repef the rstempog thanes of the Reform Bill.
t orkal oing-msm complained that they had to pay rates in
addition to their rents. The section of the new Reform
Bill to which he had alluded entailed an increase of Is.
or Is. oIL a week in excess of what they formerly paid, and
even the vestries felt themselves incapable of completing
their *elasticise. The association bad also resolved on
promoting the labour representation scheme.and se versl
influential members of parliament had expressed their
approval of the movement. One of their number bad
already issued an address to the electors of ea of the
metropolitan boroughs. They hid resolved that the com-
mittee should consist altogether oe workingmen, and that
the board of trustees ebouirl be formed a DOWOODDS,
including lir. IrCullegh TOMO" Y.P., and other proud.
nest politician,. The pram& ether& of things was far
from enoouraisg. iThe Working-mea's Association had no
sympathy wi my 'Arra form lIIDDIWboDt. The working-
man of Eielion had DOW sufficient power toprocurea redress
of their races by moral. legitimate, and oemstitutiosal
means. H. regretted that the oligarchy of the ematry were
stili unwilling to give up say porticos of thepewer el whisk
they had the monopoly so ion, and be was miry to have
add that great apathy existed seeemmet the dag man
of England regarding the objects the thoosiatica was seek-
ing to advanos.- He believed that on the rethersblisr of
parliament sorrel members of the House of °amnions
would become beaccary mesabas el the amesistha, sad
there was so doubt that they would thee naive a eon- I
adorable acessiom to their members. They would se-
dervour to praiser the mbar otederticn, end the Irish
