Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

YesteraaY a meeting of th Institution was held at its
house, john-street, Adelphi, Thomas Chapman, Esq
F.R.S., V.P., in the chair, Thbre were also present—Sir
Edward Perrott, Bart. ; t3eorge Lyall, Esq., M.P.;
W. H. Hall, C.E., '.lt. Tx.S.; W.
Herton, Esq. ; Sohn
Griffith, Esq.; Admiral Btllock ; Montague Gore, Esq.;
and Richard Lewis; Esq., the secretary. Admiral
The tiallatttes of the previous meeting having been read, a
reward of £5 108 was voted to the crew of the institution's
lifeboat at Drogheda, for putting off and saving the crew of
three men, from the schooner Maria, of Milford, which was
wrecked on Drogheda Bar, on the 9th ult. There was a
strong gale of wind blowing at the time, with a heavy sea on
the bar, but the lifeboat soon reached the vessel, and suc-
ceeded in taking off the crew, which was hardly accom-
plished before the schooner fell over on her beam-enis and
became a total wreck. This valuable lifeboat has, during
the last two years, been instrumental in saving sixteen per-
sons from different wrecks.

A reward was also granted to the crew of a fishing boat
for rescuing, at some risk of life, Si persons from another
boat, which was capsized in a heavy ground swell, near
Castletown, BerehavEn, county Cork, on the Bth of April
last. The boat was laden with seaweed, and was proceed-
ing to the shore, when a heavy sea struck her and she im-
mediately went down, leaving the crew of five men and a
woman in the water, struggling for their lives. The salvors
hastened to their assistance, and were, fortunately, the
means of rescuing them from perishing.
A reward was also voted to a boatman named P. Connor,
of Cahirciveen, county Kerry, for plunging into the sea and
saving a lad who had fallen off the quay at that place on
ashore, and would no doubt have perished but for the intre-
pidity of Connor. He had previously Saved life in a the 7th ult. The lad was quite insensible when brought
simi-
lar manner.

A reward of a 103 was also granted to the crew of a
fishing coble for putting off and rescuing the crew of four
men of another boat, which was capsized some time since in
a heavy sea off Cullercoats. The salvors had just returned
from fishing, and, seeing the other boat capsize, they again
launched their boat and proceeded to the rescue of their
fellow fishermen, who were clinging to the mast, oars, &c.,
of the sunken boat.

It was reported that benevolent persons had presented the
institution with the cost of the new lifeboats to be stationed
at New Brighton, near Livei pool ; Donna Nook, on the coast
of Lincolnshire; Tramore, near Waterford; Poole, Dorset;
and Sennen Cove, Land's End.
The important new instructions of the Institution for the
Restoration of the Apparently Dead from Drowning had
been most extensively circulated by the society throughout
the United Kingdom. They had Also been forwarded to our
colonial governors, and to the awbassadors at the English
Court. The latter had expressed their high appreciation of
the same.

A communication was read from the French Minister of
Marine acknowledging, with thanks, some drawings and
various papers, forwarded by the institution, relative to ships'
lifeboats.

The late G. Wheelhouse, E3CI
left the institution a legacy of V5O.
The South Holland Shipwreck Association had requested
the society to order for them a new lifeboat, a transporting
carriage, and equipment complete. Some fearful shipwrecks
had occurred on that coast during the past winter, with the
loss of 500 or 600 lives.

The institution had lifeboats ready to be sent to Padstcw,
Cornwall; Redear, Yorkshire; and Teignmouth, Devon-
shire.

Payments amounting to £3OO having been made on vari-
ous lifeboat establishments, the proceedings terminated.

THE JEWS IN MOROCCO,

Sir Moses Montefiore has addressed the following
letter to the illustrious Oozier Sid Taib El Yaminy,
Minister of State, Morocco :
Grosvenor-gate, Park-lane, London, June 1.
May it please your Excellency,—My heart is deeply im-
pressed with thankfulness to your excellency for the kind
letter which your excellency has so courteously transmitted
to me iu reply to that which I had the honour to address to
your excellency on the 23d of February last. •
Since my return to Europe I had the honour, while at
Madrid, to place in the hands of her Catholic Majesty the
Queen of Spain a copy of the Imperial edict of your august
Sovereign,with a translation in the Spanish language ; and,
while at Paris, to place in the hands of his Imperial Majesty
the Emperor of the French a like copy, with a translation
in the French language. Abe, on my arrival in London, I
had the gratification to present to the Government of my
beloved Sovereign a like copy, with an English translation.
The Imperial edict of his Sheriffian Majesty has obtained
a world wide celebrity, and has everywhere received the
eulogies to which it is so eminently entitled.
The friends of humanity and civilization throughout the
world °utensils the car nest hope and belief that your gra •
cious Sovereign and that you, illusti i ,us Sir, will cause that
edict to be known and respected by all the governors and
officials in the Empire of Morocco.
There is too much reason to fear that there exist a dispo-
sition on the part of some of these governors and officials
to ignore or disregard the benign
commands of the Sultan,
and that they are acting in direct contravention of his
Sheriffian Majesty's high and exalted intentions that his
Jewish, and other non-Mahoraedan subjects shall be per-
mitted to enjoy the benefits so humanely secured to them
by his Sheriffian Majesty's glorious edict.
These are indeed sad tidings. 0, let not these oppressors
be allowed to persevere in their 'wrongdoing! I intreat the
immediate and effectual interposition of his Sheriffian Ma-
jesty and of your Excellency. The Itupetial edict went
forth as a beam of light to my co.religioni-ts in Morocco;
suffer not, I implore, its brightness to be dimmed, its efful-
gence to be extinguished. It imparts joy and promise; per-
mit not that joy to be destroyed, that promise to remain
unfruitful.

Hundreds of thousands of human beings in Morocco raise
their voices in praise and thankfulness to God for the benign
desire of his Sheriffian Majesty and of your Excellency to
ameliorate their condition and to remove from them oppres-
sion and suffering. Let it not be that their fond hopes are
a vain shadow, that their cheering anticipations of a brighter
future are a delusive dream.

s welfare,
_
Ilow great and how sacred are the prerogatives of majesty!
with flowers ; it forbears to punish the oppressors, and their
path is beset with thorns. and their paths are bedecked
I knew full well and have personally experienced the
kindness of your august Sovereign and of your Excellency,
It directs its people'
and therefore I rely with firm faith on the generous promises
which I have received that the Imperial edict should be
promulgated throughout the Moorish Empire and its pro-
visions strictly enforced.
are
Happy, most happy, are the nations dwelling in peace
and security! Glorious, most glorious are their rulers, to
and humanity,
whose wisdom inspired by Almighty God,
the people look up for the perpetuity of those blessings I
Condescend, illustrious Sir, to consider these my humble
words, spoken in the fulness of my heart, and with the most
truthful earnestness.
Deign to convey illy assurances of respect to your august
Sovereign, and to receive with favour my best wishes for
his and your
health and welfare) and for the prosperity of
the Moorish Empire.
I have the
honour to remain your Excellency's faithful

A DUTCH PAINTING,
is a pleasant thing to look upon' after all, let the
author of Modem Painters
that it is not high art, but it is intelligible art ; and to be
intelligible is something in these days of w esthetic exalta-
tion. We cannot all be expected to enter with enthusiasm
into the theory of coloured shadows, or to appreciate the
gradations of feria' perspective; but. we are all, to a certain
extent, qualified judges of a Miens or a Gerard Dow. We
recognise truth when it is brought before us. We know
what hard work means, and we have some notion of the
value of finish. The subjects, too, of those old Dutch
masters are simple and homely. They ask nothing from
us in the way of classical or historical knowledge. They
seldom go beyond a figure or two, or depict other than the
commonest incidents of domestic life—such as a girl lean-
ing out of a window, or a couple of boors hobnobbing
across a table, or an old woman cutting cabbages at her
cottage door. But then the girl's elbows are buried
in a wondrous piece of Turkish carpet, so rich and real that
one is almost tempted to take up the other end, and help
her to shake it; or the Rhenish glows like liquid topaz
through the cool green of the bell-shaped German glasses;
or that old battered brass pan into which the cabbage is
about to be thrown catches a dazzling gleam of sunshine
along the outer line which throws every adjacent picture
into shadow, and almost makes our eyes ache as we look
upon it. Be it high, or be it low, we repeat that this is a
pleasant kind of art ; and the best proof that its pleasant-
ness has something real and satisfactory is to be found in
the fact that the world has liked it for the last two hun-
dred and thirty yeah a, and shows no sign of change.

Yesterday was what may be called " speech day" at this
now fast rising collegiate institution, when the usual classic
and dramatic orations were delivered, and the prizes to the
successful students at the Upper School publicly awarded.
Dulwich College, though founded in 1629, dates ita real
career of usefulness as a leading !educational institution
from a very recent period indeed, and, in fact, it is only
since its reconstitution under the act of Parliament of 1858
that its resources have been developed in such a way as in
the course of a few years more, under its present excellent
masters, bids fair to place the College on a level in point of
educational efficiency with our best schools. Under its old
charter no provision was made for extending the sphere of
either its charitable or educational value in proportion as
its yearly income grew with the enormously increased ren-
tals derived from the land with which it is endowed. Cer-
tainly, neither the worthy actor who founded it, nor any
one else in his time, or even for a long period after,
could ever have foreseen the future wealth which he
bequeathed in the acres of swampy woodland which he
left to the infant College. Every year now adds
to the value of the land the College holds and the
rents which it derives from it. There is little doubt that in
the course of another century Dulwich College will be very
richly endowed, and with the care which is taken under
the Act of 1858 to keep its educational system expanding in
proportion to its wealth, there seems no reason why, with
its large endowment, it should not attain high eminence as
one of our great collegiate schools. At present the institu-
tion is divided into an Upper and Lower School, the upper
preparing young men for the universities or any of the
learned professions; in fact, combining the old classical
routine of public schools with an extensive study of the
modern languages, history, and physical sciences. The
Lower School offers a sound commercial education. There
are as many foundationers in the Lower School as the new
governers under the act may appoint, but in the upper there
are only 24. The boys of the Lower School are restricted to
inhabitants of the hamlet of Dulwich, as it is called, and
the tour parishes of St. Giles's, Camberwell; St Saviour's,
Southwark; St Luke's, and St Botolph's. The Upper
School will soon be thrown:open to young gentlemen from
all parts of the kingdom. Nearly half the income of the
charity is now absorbed by the pensions granted under the
act to the old officers and others of the school whom the act
superseded, and the remainder is divided into four parts—
three of which are devoted to purposes of education, and one
part to charity, or in other words, to the pensioners whom
the benevolence of the college supports. Under its old char-
ter the pensioners were six men and six women, each of
whom received the munificent allowance of £l5O per annum.
Under the new act the numbers of the pensioners will be
increased, and the amount given diminished to £5O per an-
num, and as the pensioners to the old officers of the college
fall in, they will of course be added to its annual income.
By the terms of the new act the college is not allowed to
have any out-pensioners on its funds till it has 24

The extension of the building has been urgently needed for
some time, but now we believe plans have been definitely
adopted, by which the foundation-stone of new buildings
about half a mile nearer Norwood than the present college
will be laid next year. It is certainly impossible that the
school can go on much longer within its present confined
limits.

Yesterday the prizes were given, and the speeches made

field, M.A., Master of the Lower School, and a large num-
ber of ladies and gentlemen were present at the distribution.
The prizes, which consisted entirely of books, were given
by the Archbishop, who made a few kind congratulatory
remarks to each recipient. In the classical department,
prizes were given to Mr C. H. Lane, Mr Doble, Mr S. G.
Thomas, Mr Ryrie, Mr G. H. Morgan, Mr C. Gall, Mr S.
Cope, and Mr A. Ogilvie. In the mathematical classes,
prizes were gained by Mr E. M Everett, Mr R. J Milner,
Mr F. W. R. Denny, Mr Holman, Mr J. G. Dearle. and
Mr F. St. George Rich. In French, prizes were given to
Mr Doble, Mr Roche, Mr Jackson, Mr Nightingale, Mr
H, A. Bone, and Mr S. Cope. Mr Ryrie took the prize for
drawing, Mr F. W. R. Denny for free hand drawing; Mr
Lyne for vocal music and choral singing. Mr C. H. Lane,
Mr A. L. Lane, and Mr C. C. Rich, the prizes for Divinity.
Mr C. E. Doble carried off the prize for composition, and
Mr J. C. M‘Donell and Mr F. S. Phillips, the senior and
junior prizes respectively for writing. These prizes were
given during an interval between the recitations, which
were of the usual character, including scenes from
" Plautus," " Shakspere," "./Eschylus," and other dra-
matists. Some of the best scenes from " Much Ado About
Nothing" wero given with an amount of comic humour and
force that were admirable, while from first to last the reci-
tations gave evidence of a care and finish in their delivery
that reflected the highest credit on both students and
teachers.

The Circassian Exodus.

The following address has been drawn up by the
sub-committee, consisting of Lord Stratford de
Radcliffe (in the chair), Lord Strangford, Mr.
Danby Seymour, Mr. Oliphant, and Mr. Stanley,
and agreed to at a meeting of the general committee,
the names of whom have been already published :

The committee which has been formed for the relief of
the distressed Circassians feel it incumbent upon them to
lose as little time as possible in appealing to the public for
support to enable them to carry out the benevolent object
they have in view. The accounts which have already reached
this country convey some idea of the nature and extent of
the misery it is sought to relieve.
The committee, in the interests of the Circassians them-
selves, are anxious to have it clearly understood at the out-
set that the present appeal is based exclusively upon motives
of humanity. At the same time, while they disclaim any
object of a political character, they cannot possibly deny
that their desire to assist in relieving the Circassians is
greatly increased by the consideration of those circumstances
which have led to the present catastrophe.
The final result of 40 years of determined resistance to
the armies of Russia le the deportation of the three principal
tribes of the western Caucasus. The resouroes of their
country having become exhausted, and the energies of its
population worn out by the protracted struggle, they have
at last submitted to an overwhelming necessity, and are now
undergoing the painful process of expulsion from the coun-
try to which they have shown themselves so peculiarly at-
tached. We may, indeed, measure the degree of pressure
under which they are migrating to Turkey by the vigour
with which they have resisted the encroachments of their
enemies through this long course of years.
As there is no circulating medium in Cireassia these
mountaineers arriv4 at the coast utterly destitute. Ships
provided by the Turkish Government convey them to Tre-
bizonde and other ports on the northern shores of Asia
Minor. The mortality during this short voyage has been
in many instances fearful, and typhus fever and small-
pox have already swept off thousands of men, women, and
children. The Turkish Government has taken most ener-
getic steps to mitigate this misery, and we are credibly
assured that a sum of £50,000 has been devoted by the
Sultan himself to conveying the Circassians to Constanti-
nople, housing them when there in refuges and hospitals,
and sending them in small colonies as settlers into the in-
terior. The necessities of a whole nation, however, tax the
charitable resources of Turkey beyond what they can bear.
It is, therefore, earnestly hoped that the public, in the true
spirit of our national generosity, will contribute towards
helping the Circassians to reach the land provided for them
by the Turkish Government, and towards keeping them
alive until they can work for themselves. As these poor
people have been reduced to their present condition by no
fault of their own, but, on the contrary, are suffering in
consequence of the very zeal and ardour of their patriotism,
as they have no choice left them as to their fate, but are
compelled to face pestilence and starvation, and as their only
desire is to find that peace elsewhere which has hitherto
been denied them in their own country, and to earn their
bread by honest industry, they have the highest claims
upon our charity.
It is calculated that in the course of the next two
months a population of 300,000 souls, a large proportion of
whom are women and children, will be cast, starving and
half naked, upon the shores of Asia Minor.
The Committee trust that the circumstance that this
nation is obscure and little known in this country will not
deprive it of the sympathy of the public, Nor should the
foot that the misery is on such a gigantic scale dishearten
us in our attempts to relieve it. Whatever money is
collected and subscribed in England will be applied to the
relief of the moat urgent cases of suffering.
The late Sultan himself set us an example which we
Might now gracefully follow when he subscribed £l,OOO out
of his own purse to a fund which had been raised in this
country to relieve a distress in Ireland almost as vast in its
dimensions.

MELANCHOLY DEATH.--It is our painful duty to
announce the death, in the prime of life and health,
of Mr. Henry P. Pigot, of Capard-house, who was found
drowned in his own lake on the 28th ult., at 6 o'clock. It
appears that the unfortunate gentleman left his house on
the evening previous, at 8 o'clock, to take his accustomed
walk through the grounds; and, in anticipation of a sheep-
shearing which was to take place on the following day, he
gave orders, as he was leaving, that he should be called in
the morning half-an-hour before the bell rung for the work-
men to assemble. Expecting his return to the house, one
of the household remained up to open the door and receive
any commands he mit;.ht have to give. Not returning for
some hours, there was a ce,:taia amount of uneasiness felt
at his stopping out so long ; kit; his absence was attributed
to his having gone to the house of some neighbouring gentle •
man, and it was only at 6 o'clock next morning, when the
labourers were coming to Capard for the day, that a search
was instituted for him. On passing the edge of the lake,
which lies at some short distance from the house, two of
the workmen saw in the water the body of their lamented
master, and, having carried it to the shore, they discovered
that life had been extinct for several hours. It appears
that the walk by the lake at this particular point is very
narrow, and has been made more difficult to pass by
the boughs of the laurel trees which thickly overhang it;
and it was evident from the marks on the ground at
the edge of the lake that the unfortunate gentleman's foot
slipped, and that he was unexpectedly immersed in the
water. Although the lake is not more than three or four
feet deep at this place, the bottom, which is composed of a
thick, slimy mud, carried down from the mountain, would
render it, in all probability, impossible for him to extricate
himself, and he thus lamentably perished. An inquest was
held during the day on the remains, and a verdict in accord-
ance with the circumstances, of "Accidentally drowned,"
was brought in by the jury. There is one universal and
widespread feeling of regret at his death. He was heir to,
and, but for his sad and untimely fate, would have in-
herited, on his father's death, who still survives him, the
vast estates of the family, which bring in a rental of nearly
£lO,OOO a year, and which must now pass to another
branch.—Freeman.

MECHANICS' FINE LADIES.—Very different in
texture altogether is the physical humanity of the
small-handed woman opposite, dressed in a shabby gown,
with a soiled flaunting bonnet, and a torn shawl of many
colours, who evidently thinks that nerves and idleness are
three parts of the essence of gentlehood, and that she can
make herself "a lady" by ceasing to be a woman and be-
coming a doll. Her husband is a rough-mannered, rough-
handed mechanic, making perhaps forty shillings a week
or so, more or less; and he, too, shares in the delusion that
work is " low" for a woman, and that idleness is a refine-
ment, and a thing to be cultivated by the ambitious. It is
his pride to boast that "his wife is kept like a lady, with a
servant of her own—and needn't do a hand's turn if she
don't like." So he puts her in a "nice little home" at
Camberwell, with a best parlour and a black horse-
hair sofa, quite comfortable ; and there she lords it in state
over a miserable little elf, a parish apprentice, small enough
to be carried like a lapdog in the pocket. But the elf does
all the dirty work, and the rough and the
nhoatrdsoivel work
toe, that my lady the mechanic's wife, may
hands, or make them "hard like a common woman's."
