ON CHLORATE OF POTASSA AND ITS USE IN OXYDISING

THE BLOOD.
DR. S. P. SARGEANT, M.R.C.S., and L.S.A.
(1836', will shortly repeat his Lecture on this subject
at St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, and will satisfactorily prove
that Chlorate of Potassa, (as prepared by passing chlorine
through a mixture of quick-lime and water, and subsequently
boiling a long time with Chloride of Potassium) is a most
active remedy for oxydising the blood, and restoring vitality
to the low, vitiated state of the nervous system, and is there-
fore calculated to supersede the use of iron, mercury, quinine,
and sarsaparilla. 56, Gower-street, Bedford-square, London.

Illusion (kn,van as the Ghost), to produce effects never before
contemplated, and which have all been duly registered by

which is in reality nothing but a shadow, becomes to all ap-
pearance endowed with life, and when " Fame" takes her
flight through the burning Cataracts, and the Naiads seek
their beds in the Crystal Waters, form a coup d'o3ll of beauty

PENAL SERVITUDE.

The Marquis of SALISBURY moved that an address
be presented for returns of the number of convicts under
sentence of penal servitude, confined in gaols other
than Governme-at prisons in 1862 and 1863, and also asked
what steps had been taken to carry out the recommenda-
tions of the penal servitude commission.

Lord GitANVILLE did not think it advisable to dis-
cuss the details of a bill then before the other louse of
Parliament, The whole question would soon be brought
before them in a regular manner. _ _

Lord cArtiNAß,i'oN pointed out the inequality of the
present system of punishment, and quoted from an official
report a statement that 18 months' imprisonment was ac.
tually a heavier sentence than three years' penal servitude.
Combining these two classes of prisoners must be subver-
:sive of all discipline. He also regretted that a strict police
supervision for discharged convicts was not enforced. It
was absolutely essential, and, if not exorcised by the police,
would be carried on by private societies. He hoped the
Government would reconsider this question.
Lord WODEH.OUSE did not believe it would be im-
possible to preserve discipline among numbers of prisoners
without the system of remission of sentences. The super-
vision of liberated convicts, as practised in the colonies,
was quite impossible in England. The better plan would
be to pass shorter sentences, Let the prisoner continue
milder punishment for the whole term and then be dis-
charged a free man.

Lord GREY approved the principle of remitting part of
the sentence as an incentive to good conduct. The opposite
system of fixed terms had been condemned by all expe-
rience. But he thought convicts were at present liberated
too soon, and under conditions that made their relapse into
crime almost inevitable.

The returns were ordered; and their lordships adjourned
iAt 20 minutes to seven.

MALT TAX CATTLE BILL.

On the motion for going into committee on this bill,
Mr. BASS objected to tha measure, and said
that its nature was not properly understood throu;h-
out the country, and was regarded by the farmers
with great dissatisfaction. He denied that the Chancellor
of the Exchequer had made out a satisfactory case for this
bill. The right hon. gentleman said that the duty on beer
was 25 per cent, but the farmers calculated that it amounted
to 75 per cent., and although he (the Chancellor of the
Exchequer) said that the duty on foreign wines which came
into competition with beer was from 50 to 100 per cent., he
(Mr. Bass) from information received from the highest
authorities on this subject in London was led to the con-
clusion that the duty on the foreign wines amounted to not
more than 27 per cent. Ha (Mr. Bass) therefore submitted
that this was a reasonable argument why the duty on beer
which the Chancellor of the Exchequer said was 25 per
cent. should be reduced one half. (Hear, hear,)
He was convinced that the measure of the Chancellor of
the Exchequer would not prove satisfactory, in whatever
light it was regarded, and that the only remedy for the
grievance of which the right hon. gentleman complained
was to reduce the malt duty one half.
Mr. DU CANE said that, during the interval between tho
present time and the second reading of the bill, he had com-
municated with his constituency (an agricultural one), who
were unanimous with regard to this measure, and their opi-
nion might be summed up in one word, namely, that the
more they looked at it the less they liked it. (Hear, hear.)
He considered that if anything was calculated to make malt-
stars rogues this bill would effectually do it, because it held
forth to them a premium for the adulteration of linseed.
Before concluding he would quote the words of a poet with
whom the right hon. gentleman (the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer was familiar :
" Timeo Dannas et done ferextes."
(Laughter.)

PENAL SERVITUDE.

The Mfirquis of SALISBURY moved that an address
be presented for returns of the number of convicts under
sentence of penal servitude, confined in gaols other
than Government prisons in 1862 and 1863, and also asked
what steps had been taken to carry out the recommenda-
tions of the penal servitude commission.
Lord GRANVILLE did not think it advisable to dia.
cuss the details of a bill then before the other House of
Parliament. The whole question would soon be brought
before them in a regular manner.
Lord CARNARVON pointed out the inequality of the
present system of punishment, and quoted from an official
report a statement that IS months' imprisonment was ac-
tually a heavier sentence than three years' penal servitude.
Combining these two classes of prisoners must be subver-
sive of all discipline. lie also regretted that a strict police
supervision for discharged convicts was not enforced. It
was absolutely essential, and, if not exercised by the police,
would be carried on by private societies. He hoped the
Government would reconsider this question.
Lord WODEHOUSE did not believe it would be im-
possible to preserve discipline among numbers of prisoners
without the system of remission of sentences. The super-
vision of liberated convicts, as practised in the colonies,
was quite impossible in England. The better plan would
be to pass shorter sentences. Let the prisoner continue
under punishment for the whole term and then be dis-

charged a free man.
Lord GREY approved the principle of remitting part of
the sentence as an incentive to good conduct. The opposite
system of fixed terms had been condemned by all expe-
rience. But he thought convicts were at present liberated
too soon, and under conditions that made their relapse into
crime almost inevitable.
The returns were ordered ; and their lordships adjourned
at 20 minutes to seven.

The Knights of St, John of Jerusalem.

Yesterday a solemn requiem mass was celebrated
at the Church of the Sacred Military Order of St.
John of Jerusalem, in Great Ormond-street, for the
deceased Grand Master of the Order, Brother
Phillip Count Colleredo, Marquis of Recanati
The music was Mozart's " Requiem," which was
splendidly sung, with a full orchestra. The church
was illuminated by abundant wax lights, and by
gas lights all along the cornice of the church and
in two circles in the dome. The light of the gas
mingled with that of the amber-coloured windows,
had a beautiful effect, filling the dome and church
with rich golden light. Mass was celebrated by
Monsignore Weld, nephew of Cardinal Weld, as-
sisted by the clergy of Lincoln's Inn.fields and
Moozfields. Unfortunately, the Cardinal Wiseman
was prevented by indisposition from attending. I❑
front of the altar a catafalco or tomb was erected to
represent the deceased. It was covered by a splen.
did pall of velvet and gold, displaying four royal
crowns, On it were placed a valuable ancient hel-
met, with sword, gauntlets, and spurs, lent by W.
Bernhard Smith, Esq, the eminent archaeologist.
From the sword were suspended the mantle of the
Order, with the peculiar ornament called the
" Curd of th 9 Mysteries," on which are
embroidered the cuiblems of the Passion.
The Rev. Father Patterson, Conventual Chaplain of
the Order, assisted, wearing the Habit of the
Order, At the head of tho Catafalco sat the
Marchioness of Londonderry, Lady of Devotion to
the Sacred Order ; Sir George Bowyer, Knight of
the same Order, and founder of the church and
adjoining convent ; and Cashel fifty, Esq., Donat—
that is to say, Esquire of the Order. The church
was filled to the utmost by a congregation including
all the most distinguished Roman Catholics now i❑
town. In accordance with the rules of the Order
the congregation were in coloured dresses, and not
in mourning. Many of the patients of the adjoin•
ing hospital of the Order, as well as the Rei. Mo-
ther Prioress of the Convent of St John of Jerusa•
lem, and the Sisters of the same Convent, were
present at the ceremony in their Tribune,

INNS OF COURT HOTEL.

The ordinary meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the London Tavern, Mr. Cox in the
chair.

The secretary read the report, which stated that
notwithstanding considerable difficulties arising
from the state of the money-market during the past
year, the undertaking was steadily progressing, and
the building advancing towards completion. The
directors had been enabled to make advantageous
arrangements with all those persons interested in
the tenements surrounding the Holborn portion of
the building, and the uncovered land thus placed in
possession of the company was valued ati:40,500, a
price only £5OO less than that at which it was
bought when covered with buildings. It was esti-
mated that the whole cost of the building, includ-
ing the furnishing of the hotel, would be about
£140,000. The directors proposed to ask the con-
sent of the shareholders fur additional borrowing
powers to the extent of £20,000.

Tho CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said the prospects of the hotel were most
encouragieg, and he thought the good security the
company had to offer would enable them to raise
the money required to complete the hotel without
any difficulty.

Theresolution having been seconded was agreed to

The meeting CV4113 then made special, and a reso,
lotion was agreed to empowering the directors to
borrow a further sum of £20,000.
A vote of thanks to the'chairman concluded the
proceedings.
