institutions.

The best practical reply, however, which I can
give to your letter is this,—The greatest difficulty,
essentially inherent in the business of small as-
surances, is the amount of working expenses neces-
sary to be incurred. Now, although the Govern-
ment business can be carried on without that exor-
bitance of working charges which may be observer
in certain cases, I have never held out the expecta-
tion that we can work very cheaply, since all the
work done will be minute, and must be done under
checks of the strictest kind ; some of which thigh'
perhaps be dispensed with in such friendly societies
as really answer to the name. Their machinery,
o❑ the other hand, ought to be, and, in many cases,
I believe as, extremely cheap; and if they can avoid
other dangers, I think that on this ground, as well
as on the ground of their providing sick pay, which
we cannot do, they will have nothing to fear from
our competition_ Among a labouring population of
,=onaa 24,000,000 it does not appear tha; more than
£2,000,000, or ere-twelfth, are in friendly societies
of any class or kind. Surely there is here a field
broad enough for diversity of agencies, and for leav-
ing some liberty of choice to the labouring man,
which ho will exercise according to his circum-
stances.

If I am asked what I mean by other dangers I

would venture to specify three. Friendly societies
will be in danger when, with the idea and theory
of self-go7ernment, they allow their affairs to be in
the hands of managers at a distance, whom the
members can no more control than the electoral body
of the country could, without the House of Com .
mor.e, control the Queen's Government. They will
oe in danger, when their rules and tables have not
been beyond all doubt ascertained by competent and
instructed authority to be, not merely legal, but
wise and prudent. Lastly, I fear they will very
often be in danger when they transact their busi..
ness at the publtchouse.
I have the honour to be, rev, sir, your faithful
servant,

W. E. GLADSTONE.

Rev. Thomas C. Finch.

P.S.—As your question relates to a matter of
general interest, I think it will not be disagreeable
to you that I should give publicity to your letter
and my reply, which can be done more conveniently
now than when Parliament shall have reassembled.

The following correspondence has been sent to us
'or publication :

Batheaston, Bath, Alarch 31.

Sir,—Will you permit me to invite your attention
to the inclosed rules and report of a little society,
the Batheaston and St. Catherine's Independent
Friendly Society, I have established in this village ?
My only object is to ascertain from you how we
should probably be affected should your noble pro-
position ba carried into law.
I am utterly at a loss to know whether we should
have to merge, as it were, into a Government society,
or be annihilated by the movement.

I am sure you will forgive my trespass on your
va uable time, appreciating my motive.
I am concerned for my little club, which is a sort
of " hobby" wiAh me, and which is likely to enlarge,
provided no new enactment shake the confidence of
the young men of the village.
With sentiments of high respect, I am, dear Sir,
yours obediently,

THOS. CLARK SON FINCH.
Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P.

11, Carlton-house-terrace, April 1.

Rev. Sir,—ln replying to your letter of yesterday,
I must request you will have the goodness to ob-
serve that the bearing of the Government Annuities
Bill, when it shall have passed into law, upon
friendly societies, is, iv many respects, a matter of
opinion, and of such opinion as cannot at present be
effectually illustrated by facts.
In other points of view it is a question on which
much light is thrown by experience ; but by expe-
rience of a kind which I do not possess.

Others are far baler qualified than I am to judge
how far limitation of numbers is a hindrance to the
establishment and maintenance of stable friendly

societies.

But I may state, in the first place, that if it be so
I shall much lament it. It is no part of the object
of the Government to displace or injure such 60.
cietiee. I know of nothing more useful, more laud-
able, more truly English end Christian than a well
constituted friendly society. •What we seek is to
provide for those—and they are many—who are
unable to avail themselves of the bent his of such

Suit

LONDON, SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1864.

About Mr. STANSFELD, M.P. for Halifax, Junior
Lord of the Treasury, "Minister of the Crown,"
as he ostentatiously calls himself, we must surely
hear a little more in the House of Commons imme-
diately after the renewal of the sittings of Parlia-
ment on Tuesday. It is quite impossible that the
matter should rest where it is. The scandal with
which this Minister of the Crown's name has come
to be identified, not only notoriously here in Eng-
land, but notoriously all over Europe, cannot be
glossed over. Its offence—like that of the King in
Hamlet"--ia rank and smells to heaven. It
won't serve Mr. STANSFELD'S purpose, or Mr.
LAYARD s, or Lotd PALMERSTON'S, or the Govern•
ment's to attempt again riding off, as the phrase is,
on the high horse!
The whole transaction is
too flagrant, too sombre, too nu-English
as our national instinct of pride induces us idioma-
ticallyto express it—to allow of Mr.
STANSFELD,
or of Mr. LAYAUD, or of Lord PALMERSTON, or of
any MinistEr of the Presentuovernment, either
one as important as the Prima Alinistsr, or one as
insignificant as a Junior Lord of the Admiralty, to
pass it by contemptuously, after the fashion of fire-
eating Sir LUCIUS 0"/RIGGEB, wbea he turns upon
his heel from that most degenerate of country
Squires and country bumpkins,, Bois ACRES, with a
" Pooh, pooh ! ye're beneath my notice !" It is not
simply Mr. Cox, of Finsbury, asking an awkward
question of the gentleman who lives at 35, Thurloe-
square, Brampton, S.W., the very gentleman whe
;Os o' nights on the Treasury Bench in the Hones of
Commons actually rubbing elbows with the Prime
Minister ofEngland,Visconnt PALMERSTON, Itisnot
simply that the occupants of that benen are bting
disturbed during their evening slumbers, through
all the duller_inte,rvais of the debates, by the yelp-
ing and snarling of that fretfullest of little watch.

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The Directors of Bonelli's Electric Telegraph Company
(Limited), having established a line of telegraphic communi-
cation between Manchester and Liverpool, the work nn of
which h&4 proved even beyond expectat on, b th practic 1 y
and commercially, the unrivalled excellence of B )nelli's
system, propose to extend their operations throughout the
United Kingdom.

Each message is printed by the very act of transmission,
in clear Roman characters, and as so transmitted is delivered
without further process, to the receiver, thus absolutely ex-
cluding. all possibility of error between the sender and the
receiver.

The automatic nature and simple workin7 of the Bonelll
instrument rendt•rs it independent of = specially trained, arid
therefore highly paid manipulators. The charge will be O.
tor twenty w rds.
The necessity to which all other telegra hic establish-
ments are exposed of increasing the stall' of operators in pro-
portion with the Hugmentation of business, does not exist,
and, consequently, any increase of business must prove al-
most absolutely clear profit.

Prospectuses and Corms may be obtained from the Bankers,
Brokers, Solicitors or Seen:tity, at the Offices or the c om-
pany. Each application -must aocomp ',vied with a denosit
ot per share, wh:,
on 4111 be returned without deduction if
no shares are ',hotted.

From datecfisSue ►until the final clos'ng of the lists
the ',onelli instruments may be seen in operation daily from
..vrelve to Four, at 7, Angel court.
