PROSPECTIVE CHANGES IN COSTUME.—The
Court Journal says ;—We were the first to men.
tion, some months ago, that the evening costume for gen-
tlemen was about to be altered, and that the Prince of
Wales would support the movement. The last Prince of
Wales, afterwards George IV., introduced a dress blue
coat, lined with buff, a velvet collar, with a Royal button,
which was borne by all the elite of London. And there
can be no doubt that the newly .suggested costume—velvet
tunic, velvet knickerbockers, silk stockings, and shoes—
would be a wonderful improvement upon the present even-
ing dress,which is also worn by the "greengrocer," waiter,
and the highest noble in the land. It would not only mark
the distinction, but it would give an impetus to trade.
Some years ago a gentleman's morning and evening dress
was expensive, It consisted of coats lined with fur in
winter, and faced with velvet in spring, summer, and
autumn; leather pantaloons and hessian boots were worn,
and beaver hats were in fashion. In an evening, short
net or kerseymere inexpressibles, silk stockings, silk or
satin waistcoats, and cocks hats were in vague. In the
present day, gossamer silk hats, wide-awakes, tweed trou-
sers, light paletots, are the fashion for morning attire;
while loose trousers, plain coats, and boots form the even-
ing costume. We hope, too, and believe, that a change
will take place in the Court dress, and that the old-
fashioned suit will be replaced by a more becoming one.
DOCTORS AND PATIENTS.—Among the curious
calculations that may be founded upon the census
returns here is one made by Dr. Farr. It is reckoned that
for every death in a year there are constantly two persons
ill in the year ; and, so reckoning., the census returns of

1851 and 1861 and the mortality returns of the intervening
years give the following results ;—ln all England and Wales
47 persons constantly sick to one medical man, including
under this last term not only physicians and general prac-
titioners, but also such assistants and medical students as
are above 20 years of age. In London the proportion is only
24 resident sick to one doctor—in the South-eastern coma-

ties 37, South-western 45, South-midland 49, West-
midland 54, Eastern 57, Northern 58, North-midland 59,
Yorkshire 64, Blonmouthshiro and Wales 75, and in the
North-western counties (Lancashire and Cheshire) as many
as 80. The calculation shows one medical man to every
1,071 persons in England and Wales ; but the numbers
differ so greatly in different parts of the kingdom that in
London the medical men are one to every 514 persons, and
in Monmouthshire and Wales only one to every 1,769. The
profession does not appear to be increasing in number—the
number in England under 40 years of age was 11,105 in.
1851, and only 9,910 in 1861, With regard to the fortunes
of this profession, the calendars of wills and administra-
tions for 1858, which has been analysed, shows that 300
medical men died, leaving personal property in that year
to pass to survivors; and therefore the number who left no
personal property cannot have been considerable. The
average amount left by these 300 gentlemen was £3,139 ;
35 left less than £lOO, 127 loft above £l,OOO, 20 of these loft
above £lo,ooo—namely, 16 between £lO,OOO and £20,000,
two between £20,900 and £30,000, and three between
£50,000 and £lOO,OOO.
DOG Snows AT THE AGRICULTURAL HALL.—A
memorial has been presented from certain of the in-
habitants of St. Mary's parish, Islington, to Sir George
Grey, on the subject of the proposed dog show at the
Islington Agricultural Hall. The memorialists complain
that during nine days and nights in May, 1863, they and
their families were subjected to the annoyance arising from
the incessant barking and howling of the couple of thou-
sand dogs confined in the building; and they are conse-
quently much alarmed at the announctment that a similar
annoyance is likely to be inflicted upon them

AT POMPEII five new rooms have been brought
to light not far from the Forum. In one of them a great
many pieces of bread wrapped up in napkins have been
found, most of the napkins being still in good preservation.
Amongst other articles found there was a beautiful little
seal, with the syllables ANL aro, engraved upon it. M.
Fioretti considers them the abbreviation of a proper name,
Anicatus Itodestus. M. Felix Patiglione has undertaken
the task of constructing a model of Pompeii in cork, and
