THE SMOKE NUISANCE:

TO THE EDI FOR OF TRIG NORTHERN TIMES.

Sir,— On perusing the Memorial presented by
the late smoke inspector, Mr. MI) anald, to the
council, I was rather struck by his allusion to the.
smoke prevention inventors ; he says, " had he
patronised any of these inventions he might have
been a richer man than he is, but he would have
nothing to do with them ;" and very properly so,
for a recommendation now a person in his position
to adopt any of these Tuck inventions would
have been tantamount to an injuncion to the
furnace owners either to comply with it or submit
to the other alternative, be tined. But why is the
same principle not acted on now? recently I was
biought before the magistrates for an alleged
offence against the smoke act, and of course by
-hard swearing I was fined. Next morning I was
waited upon by the smoke inspector, who intro-
duced a gentleman as Mr. —, the celebrated
Smoke Do3tor, intimating at the same time that
if I adopted his invention to my furnace I should in
future escape flees. I however declined, and no
doubt shall, in due course, pay for my obstinacy. Is
this fair, or just ? If the Smoke Committee or
their officers have discovered some panacea for
the entire prevention of smoke, (which their late
inspector declares he never did) why do they not
at once make it public, and not permit their
servant to introduce it in the clandestine manner
I have described ; and if we are to be fined for
what we cannot at all times prevent, it would be
some consolation to us to think that it was done
by one who understood something about the
subject, ant no:: by an individual who knows as
much about engines, boilers and furnaces as these
do about him —I am, sir, yours &c., &c ,

THE WIDOW OF THE LATE CAPTAIN

ROGERS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES.

Sir,—A statement appeared in several of the
Liverpool Papers last week to the effect, that the
widow of the late Captain Rogera was a member
of the Wesleyan Church ; a letter also appears in
the Mercury of to day, urging upon the Wesleyans
the formation of a committee to raise funds in her
behalf.

Mrs. Rogers was visite I three times during her
stay in this town by Mr. Edward Sumners, who was
distinctly told by Mi.s. R. that She was in the
habit of attending the Established Church, she
had occasionally gone to the Wesleyan Chapel,
but had never been in any way connected as a
church member with the Wesleyans.
The insertion of the above will greatly oblige,
Yours, &c.,

A curious point has just been decided by the Tribunal
of Commerce of the Same. There is a cafe at the corner
of the Rue Lvellntier, known by the name of the Cafe
Riche, of which M. Garin is the proprietor. One of the
heirs of M. Riche, the founder of the cafe, being tired of
seeing his name serve for a sign for the cafe, brought M.
Garin before the tribunal to make him resign the name.
After a very elaborate argument, the tribunal has decided
that a family name is an imprescriplible property, which
Cannot be alienated but by tho will of those who have the
right to bear it ; and though during many years the heirs
of M. Riche have tolerated their name serving fur a sign
to the establishment in question, they have a perfect right
to withdraw that tolerance. M. Garin, therefore, is within
a fortnight entirely to remove the name of Riche, and
at cuwhile is condemned in the costs,—Eoliettore Journal,

THE QAMP OF CHALONS.

SEPTEMBER 13.
Visitors to the Camp of Chalons are apt to imagine that
the four hours' rail from Paris is the sum total of the journey,
and that on reaching the town au easy walk or drive will bring
them to the tents of the Imperial Guard. They will most
likely get a glimmering of the truth from some communicative
fellow-traveller while steaming over the 43 leagues that separate
Paris from the chief town of the department of the Marne;
but if not, tbey will certainly discover, when landed at Chalons,
that the most troublesome port of their journey is yet to come.
Since the camp is to he of annual recurreuce, it is presumable
that in another year or two the Chalonese will have their wits
a little quickened. At any rate, as the new railway is to be
opened in a few days, one great difficulty will be removed,
and travellers no longer lose half a day in obtaining a vehicle
and in floundering through crossroads aad quagmires to the
camp. At present lam bound to say that the chief hotel of
Chalons, although it has the pretension of being two hotels
rolled into one, under the double and sonorous title of the
Palais Royal and the Golden Bell, shows hut little alacrity in
speeding wanderers on their way. With hoses in the stable
and carriages in the yard there yet is some mysterious, and, as
it for a long time appears, insurmountable, difficulty in com-
bining the two and starting for the camp. Allowance must be
made for the embarrassment cif people upon whom good fortune
is suddenly thrust. Quiet, dingy old Chalons has long been
so unaccustomed to an influx of travellers, to a demand for
post horses and hotel accommodation, that its head is quite
turned. Ancient instincts of honesty seem to he struggling
with new opportunities of gain. It would perhaps be truer,
although less charitable, to say that the Chalenese are so afraid
of asking too litfe, that they take a long time in making up
`heir mir.ds as to the exact point to which their new customers
will hear bleeding The bargain made—that is to say, their
terms stated and acquiesced in (for the day wears, and they
arure us they are six terrible leagues to the camp)-1 most
exasperating deliberation still characterizes all their move-
ments. The shafa3 must be removed, and a pole put in.
for what can one horse do on a road on which, as they
aver, you sink up to the axle at every second turn of the
wheel? Then the horses are eating their corn, or Antoine,
the coachman, is not forthcoming ; and had you not better
breakfast before going, for you will get nothing fit to eat
at the camp ? A stubborn, very slow-moving old lady, a red-
faced, petulant man, a pallid waiter, and half a dozen helps and
nondescripts pass to and fro, propounding difficulties au I re-
commending food. At last after two or three false starts, you
aro off, having lost exactly one hour and three-quarters since
getting out of the railway. Elated by your escape, everything
looks couleur de rose. You smile amiably at the host whom
you have been mentally overwhelming .with maledictions for
the last five quarters of an hour, you promise pourboire to
the drivers, and you offer one of those choice Havannatis you
brought from London to the Frenchman who shares your
conveyance. The insignificant stone gateway you pass under
as you quit the town assumes the proportio- s of a triumphal
arch, and you observe with delight that the road, as far as you
can see ahead, has by no means that desperately bad appearance
you have been led to expect. You make no doubt that the
length as well as the quality of the way has been exaggerated,
and that an hour or a little more will take you to the camp.
After three or four miles, however, you quit the high road,
and soon you see that your trembles are all before you. Your
companion, Frenchman like, is sanguine and hopeful, and
sees the camp at every tuna of the track. A bit of tri-
coloured hunting, floating from a roadside wine-house, is taken
for a banner indicating the E uperor's head-quarters. A
canteen-woman's care, a couple of dragoon orderlies, are con-
sidered proofs that we are close to our destination. Meanwhile
the road, off which we are frequently obliged to turn in older
to pass waggons and heavy vehicles going to and fiom the
camp, gets worse and worse, until at last it becomes worthy of
the Crimea, Indeed, it would he insulting the Doyne high-
way, as it was towards the end of the war, to compare the two ;
one of those wheel-tracks across country which, in Wallachia,
do duty as roads, is the best simile that can be found for the
lest half hour of the way. But, as we toilsomely rise a fir-
crowned hill, wheels creaking and horses sweating, we meet
some French officers, strolling on foot. This looks like prox-
imity. " Lieutenant, are we near the camp ?" " Tout Ares,
Monsieur; in three minutes you will see it." In less than
that time we espy some digs, and our coachman pain's with his
whip to a very ordinary-looking wooden hut on our left front.
" Teat is the Ewe or's qu triers." Tents right and left of
the road. They are those of the Ist and 2nd Grenadiers.
Ahead cur view is bounded by an undulating belt of thick
foliage. It is the little river Ciieneu, whose verdant fringe re-
lieves ihe barren aspect of the surrounding country for the pictu-
resque has certainly not been consulted in the selection of the
ground for the camp, and it noted be hard to pitch upon a less
agreeable landscape. But it is the wry place for the
purpose—a vast undulatang plain, With a chalk bottom
Half an hour after a heavy rain the water has all been sucked
in. The road we are on leads direct to Grand Mourmelon,
the principal village near to the camp, which reaches close up to
it, Away to the left, not visible fhorn this spot, is Petit
Mourmelon There is something in the sound that reminds
one of the Crimea. We think at once of the blood-stained
Matnelon. And, a still stronger reminder—an an imaginary
line connecting the two villages, in front of the Cheneu and
in rear of the camp, are a number of detached huts and wooden
buildings, the nucleus of what will doubtless in time be a large
sutler's village. This is Kamieseh, or Cequinville, or Filou-
ville—for by all these names is it known. Hero are the old
inscriptions from Crim Tartary :—" On donne a boil et a
manger," " Vin de Champagne," " Cafe au lait et au noir"
(a new way of designating coffee without milk), "On sere a
la portion." There is the Cafe de Paris, not much resent:
!sling its defunct namesake on the Italien Boulevard, but
which actually attempts art etalage—a display of choice fruits
and uncooked viands. Under a very fair counterfeit of the
Cologne Vendome, about 15 feet high, a dealer in brandy
cherries has established himself. A small hut' is devoted to
the sale of perfumery, for which one would imagine that the
demand must be moderate in a camp ; but doubtless the
Guard, although exiled for a short time in the deserts of
Champagne, has not forgotten the refinements of Paris. But
here are some well-remembered faces and uniforms. The
Zouavo camp stretches away on our left. " Stop, coachman
we go no further." It is just 5 o'clock; we have been ex-
actly eight hours getting from Paris to the camp, and, until
the railway is opened it can hardly be done quicker. We
have arrived, however, at a good moment. Six o'clock is the
usual mess hour, but yesterday was a wet day, and the
manceuvres, which usually takes place on Friday, were
put off until Saturday. The breakfast was consequently
early, and dinner is at five. A good Providence has oa-
dainel that, for this day at least, we shall not be
left to the tough mercies of a Cuquinville or a Moureuelom
ragout. Thanks to the hospitality of a friendly Captain of
Zeuaves, we presently find ourselves at table in the mess but
of his regiment, where are assembled some three-score officers,
the mojerhy of whom wear on their breast the English
Crimean medal, the Meljidie, or some other memorial of tire I
late war. The plot of gtouad known as the Camp of Chalons,
but of which only a small portion is really occupied by the
camp, the rest remaining free for manoeuvres, is in extent
nearly 140 square kilometies. In form it wonid most resem-
ble a square, but for two projecting spurs, or rather heels, ono
of which protrud-s nearly north, the other nearly due west—
both from the western side of the territory. Nearly parallel
to the southern boundary of the camp runs the river Vesle,
and to the northern limit the Suipp s ; a rivulet called the
Cheneu rises in the camp itself, and escapes from it ia a
south-westerly direction, intersecting the southern spur.
Nearly parallel to this stream, from its rise to where it quits
the camp, the troops are established ; the two divisions of
infantry on the left, the cavalry on the right : in the rear of
the cavalry, west of the stream, the artillery, some engineers
of the line, the waggon-train, commissariat, bakehouses,

slaughter-houses, &c. The engineers of the Guard aro on the
right of the infantry, the Cent Gard,.a in their roar. The line

formed by tho tents is not a straight one, nor a regn'ar curve,
but uudula•es. Oppsite a break, like a broad avenue, left
betmeen the infantry and cavalry, are the Imperial 'head-

quarters ; immediately on the right of these is the chapel, a
mere roof surmounted by a cross, but a conspicuous object and
seen from afar, owing to the eminence ou which it and the
Emperor's residence are placed. A few hundrod y vas to the
left of the latter is the Elal .'Major General, the head-

quarters of General Regnault de Sc. Jean d'Angely. The
Emperor's quarters are just upon a lino old Roman road that
tuns right through the camp, and which connects Rheims and
Bar le Due. It has been stated in some of the French papers
that an old ca'np of Attila's is not only within the limits of the

camp of Chalons, but that the Guard is now encampcl on the
same spot. This is incorrect. The place where Attila and his
Huns established themselves is about a mile, or rather more,
east of the south-eastern corner of the new military territory,
and certainly seven miles from the ground now occupied by
the French troops. The weather here since the let of

September has been very uncertain, and upon the whole not
favourable. This has caused'soma detangement in the routine
of work laid down for the troops. According to this, Monday,
Wednesday and Friday aro mat. ceuvre days, on the other
working daye the artillery begin practice at daybreak, leave off
at 11 2.m., and then the infantry commence. Tht cavalry
have the alternate days to look after their horses, clean their
equipments, and attend to the various duties from which an

infantry man is exempt. Suaday is a full-dress day; mass is
said at 9 in the morning, and then the soldiers have the whole
day to themselves, and may be seen pla3,ing at skittles and other
games, rambli g over the country, and thronging the dirty
streets of Mourtnelon le Grand, and of o'her neighbouring
hamlets, where poultry, rabbits, fruit, vegetables, 'and various
delicacies likely to tempt their appetite, are exposed for sale in
newly run up wooden sheds, in carte, and in heaps upon the
ground., This morning dawned most urpropitiously for the
usual religious ceremony. The sky was of a dull leaden tint,
except where heavy murky masses of cloud drifted across the
monotonous surface, apparently charged with water, soon to

descend in torrents. The camp looked, as camps always do
in such weather, a collection of the most wretched residences

into which human beings were ever uncomfortably packed.
The poor village of Mourmelon looked more dismal than ever;

the flimsy wooden shops and cafes that have sprungtel,7o;ll
it and in it—wherever a nook of ground was avails
to shiver in their nakedness, as if anticipating a urf ere

between many of the present corps and the old, :14..11,
Guard. The Grenadiers, among whom are not traetl-,4

suggestive in this sense. The bronzed features and e-,00„
