CRYSTAL PALACE SEA WATER

BATHING. --
--
Water is so essential both to the animal and legetahle
creation, either for aliment or other purposes, that its
impoitance, probably, surpasses every other stbstance
amongst the great exuberance bestowed by the Author
of nature.

The health, comfort, and enjoyment of nankind
constantly require a plentiful supply, and, theefore, if
utility 'be a just criterion of value, the invontbns and
operations to furnish' it readily and abundattly in a
salubrious state, would seem to be entitled to peculiar
attention.
gre-eminent as our nation may be for metnificent
and useful enterprises as well as for contrivsace, con-
ducing to domestic and social convenience, nevertheless
the paucity of our structures for the salutary and plea-
surable exercise of bathing and othel' useful purposes
is remarkable. The devices of other nations and ages
for these purposes exhibit much varied ingenalty; 'those
of ancient Rome, and Alambra in Spain, eicit wonder
and admiration; but, in modern times'. the. ptblie and
privets baths abounding in France,Lahr, Huriktilt;
Ruseia,.and Egypt, should rouse us to mutilation, and
that to promote health and comfort by all the available
means at• our command. It was Agrippa wko first
taught the Romans the luxury of baths; and succeed-
ing Emperors increased the provision made in Rome for
public bathing. It is said,that in the time of Augustus,
a poor man might bathe for a farthing, and little boys
for nothing. The baths were adorned with works of
art; and it was here that poets, orators, and musicians
resorted to rehearse their works, or pronounce opinions
upon. those of oilers; these-were. the ebbs of Rome.
Recently, the necessity for the establishment of baths iu
England has been felt. To purify the body is one step
towards purifying the mind. Moreover, we ought to
strive to find healthy amusement for the pesple generally.
The haoitual use of the bath was found so benefictai
by the Greeks and Reniang, and is now insuch constant
use in France and other neighbouring counzies, 'enjoying
a climate similar to our own, that it is strprising the •
so few English, of whatever grade of socisty, have re-
course to bathing, except some, perhaps, fir a few weeks
of the year 'at 'the sea-side. The practice of bathing
is not only to be advocated on the plea of cleanliness.
and facilitating the removal of secretion from the body,
but has a direct sedative influence m the, nervous
system; it seems to absorb that morbid irritability
arising trona an undue development of tie mind at the
expense of the body, and leaves a feeling of comfort
and repose, not wholly attributable to the consciousness
of being clean. The bath should be used at least 'every
week by those who are at the change of life, and More
frequently by those who suffer much from profuse per-
epiratiote Swimming, also, in other ccuntries is made
w branch of every man's education ; and why this
country, with its naval and commercial importance,- the
inhabitaute also of which excel all other countrymen in
other athletiosports, should be so far behind them in the
art of natation we are equally at a loss to conceive.
Hence a design is now before the directors of the
Crystal Palace Company, for laying devil incorrodible
pipes from the .sea at Brighton, for the purpose of .con-
veying pure sea water along the gradients'
and slopes of
that railway, to a large marine reservoir it Sydenham,
where capacious plunging and swimming baths will be
established in connexion with the Crystal Palace on its
new site, affording to visitors, ladies, gentlemen, trades-
men. and invalids of all classes, residing in London and
its environs, the means of obtaining at a cheap rate the
salubrious recreation of sea bathing, without entailing
upon them the loss of time or the expense of retiring to
the sea coast. Numerous, indeed, we may imagine,
would be the attendance upon such an establishment,
united as it will be with our popular Crystal Palace.
Persons who have now no alternative but fresh water
bathing, which is universally acknowledged to be vastly
inferior to that of sea water, would eagerly seize upon the
opportunity of a short and pleasant ride by railway
from London, to obtain,,at a cheap rate, an invigorating
luxury, hitherto only. placed within the reach of the
more opulent portion of the communing; and by a simple
ee-iereaiee or the Plan- the water once Sydenham,
could be distributed throughout the principal residences,
palaces, hospitals, hotels, and public baths of our great
metropolis; and employed, not alone for the sanatory pur-
poses of bathing, but also for supplying the ornamental
waters' of the Crystal Palace, which, by the important
acquisition of sea water, :will surpass the hitherto un-
equalled jets d'eau of Versailles, or the noble cascades
of St. Cloud. It has been ascertained, from
careful
calculation by the projector, that the metropolis could be
supplied at the rate of 3d. per 100 gallons, or one
good bath for a penny. Sea water thus usefully and
ornamentally employed, will contribute much to the health
and amusements of the public; and will be an under-
taking, well worthy the age we live in; and the justly
celebrated mechanical and scientific pre-eminence. of the
British nation. As regards the prospect of a large influx
Of visitors, it is stated that 6,000,000 persons went to
the Great Exhibition in five months. We may, there-
fore, confidently assume, that an average of 1,000,000 per'
eons will go to the New Crystal Palace in twelve months,
to see an exhibition that will be for instruction, refined
recreation, and amusement, matchless in the world;
hence there can be no doubt, that oat of this vast
concourse of persona who will annually visit the
Crystal Palace at. Sydenham, a very large majority
will avail themselves of the sea bathing establishment.
And we can With equal reason assume, that a large ad-
()Would "number of the working classes, invalids, &c.,
will go solely to the baths, consequently the number of
bathers may be confidently taken at 800,000
annually,
comprising 200,000 of the first class at 6d. each, and
600,000 bathers of the 'second class at 3d. each, whichtogether gives the annual income of 12,b001i
It is, therefore, evident, from the following estimate of
the coat of construction and annual working expenditure,
teat on a capital 0f75,0001. it will leave the shareholders
in the Crystal Palace Sea Water Company a dividend of
upwards of 10 per cent.
This projeot, therefore, which is proposed to be carried

commends itself alike to the capitalist and the Ph'

DEATH Or " JOHN DOE AND RICHARD ROE'„
On the 24th of October next these celebrated characters will
legally cease to exist. By an Act passed in the late session
(15 and 16 Victoria, cap. 76), it is enacted that, "instead of
the present proceeding by ejectment, a writ shall be issued,
directed to the persons in possession of the propertyro claimed,
which property shall be described in the reason-
able certainty."
It is anticipated that a larger limber of election
petitions will be presented in the forthcoming session

for many years, and doubtless many seats will be exchanged.
It is rumoured that an eminent Queen o counsel s alrPadv

STATE' OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
MAITCHEaTEU, TUESDAY.—The general disposition of
the buyers of yarns has been, at least, to repeat the
somewhat reduced offers they made last week, Mid for
some descriptions, again to lower their terms. The
latter remark applies almost exclusively to the common
qualities of mule twist, particularly such as are prepared
for the Indian markets. These have suffered a further
loss of ground, in 40's to the extent of about fd. per lb.,
and in 50'a id. as the business effected has shown. The
consequence, however, is, that spinners have thus been
enabled to make sales of limited extent. In reeled water
twist the principal difference is that a greater number of
spinners are inclined to aocept the previous terms than
was the case last week; or, at any rate, this inclination
is more apparent now that the elections in this neigh-
bourhood are over, and men are returning to busi-
ness. Warps and pin-cops are generally steady,
some kinds very firm; and this is still more the case
with the better kinds of the finer yarns, which
indeed continue to exhibit an upward bias. Although,
therefore; the day's transactions are comparatively incon-
aiderable, the market has been a steady caw' on the whole.
As regards goods, it is found that the value of printers is
sustained by the demand, and that the prospect of an in-
creased inquiry causes the makers of domestics to hold
more decidedly to their qdotations. The manufacturers
of some of the lighter 40-inch shirting, however, have
found, it necessary to make a slight concession in order
to meet their Indian customers.
ROcIIDALIC hioNDAY.—We have had a steady demand
for flannels at last week's prices. Kersey s and coarse goods
have been more inquired after, and rather better prices
have been ebtained. There is little or no change in the
wool market: the demand is steady, and prices good.
MACCLESFIELD, TlTESDAY.—Btzsinesa here in silk
manufactured goods the last week has been nearly at a
stand, the elections having to a considerable extent en-
grossed the attention of our manufacturers. Thrown
'Silks—There is a fair inquiry for • the finer descriptions.
Which. has now 'extended to the_common,er sorts, and
the market has been mostly. Cleared of old stocks.'
Raw Silk—The market remains very firm, with moderate
basinest.
SATURDAY.—ScarceIy anything has been
done in our piece-hell to-day, and the elections have
been more talked about than business. The yarn mar-
ketii inactive; and the spinners huld firmly for the late
'advance. Wool does not change hands freely, and the
quotations are unaltered.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
WORSHIP-STREET.

Frederick Weston was charged with attempted murder.
The offence was 'perpetrated as long ago as the early
part of May last, whey, after sufficient of the facts had
been spoken to by a female witness to warrant the pri-
soner's detention, he was remanded from week to week
to await the recovery of the prosecutors, one of whom
shortly after was pronounced to be in such a dangerous
condition by the surgeons of the London Hospital that
the magistrate, accompanied by a clerk, was summoned
to that institution to take what was believed to be his
dying deposition.
Both prosecutors were now in attendance, and the
elder of them, Peter Yates, stated—l am a sawyer,
living at 25, West-street, mile-end, and the prisoner is
my son-in-law. On the eight of Sunday, the 16th of last

about ten, and told him if be did not go away I must
give him in charge. I was standing et my door, and
he exclaimed, " Come out, you old ---, ando_ I'll give

.out of my head by the officer, but until
the prisoner stabbed me I had no notion he had got a
knife. I got up from the ground and staggered in-
doors but was afterwards taken to the hospital, where I
remained for eight or ten days before I was allowed to
leave it. There was no ill-feeling between us that I was
aware of, and the prisoner did not appear to me to be
drunk, though I think he had been drinking.
Sergeant Baker, of the.K division, deposed—l was on
duty in the. neighbourhood of West-street upon the n • --
night
in question, when I heard the sound of a constable's
rattle, and on hastening up found the prisoner opposite
Mr. Yates' door in the custody of a policeman. t
into the Finding

house and found both Yates and his son bleeding pro-
fusely. The son was lying upon his back on the fluor,
and I saw that his intestines were protruding through a
serious wound in the lower part of his belly.

p Wound in the On look-
ing top of ehis-
head, and on examining it I pulled out the piece of knife
blade I now produce, but it required much force to get
it out. I• told the prisoner I wanted the other part of
the knife,.
and he said a person named Story had it, and
Story having delivered thehandle o f a knife with a small
portion of blade attached it, I comparedthems sIW

piece I had taken out of the elder prosecutor's skull,
which I had f ound buried in the flesh with its back
downwards, and only the point visible.
George Yates, ' the son, who described himself es a
piperaaker,•in Cornwall-road, Mile-end, and gave a Bi'

being brought to the hospital at twelve on the night in
question, and on examining his left cheek I found that
a wound
L had been there inflicted which divided one of
tn,e veins. I. then examined the lower part of his belly,
wnere.l found that a coil of his intestines was pro-
truding for a distance of six inches through a
wound, evidently ' inflicted with some sharp in-
strument, which had also wounded' the intestine itself in
three placea. That wound, was very, likely to cause death,
and his life was for some time in extreme danger' but
after being under my oare for many weeks I think he is
now out ef•danger: The father,- Peter Yates, came to
the hospital the same night to see. his son, and upon ex-
amining him it was found necessary to keep him there
also. I found a severe wound on the top of his head,

and also three punctured wounds beneath the left arm,
but the last were comparatively slight ones, though the
first was decidedly dangerous to life. It was a scalp
wound, and he remained under my treatment for
more than a week.

After some further confirmatory evidence the prisoner
was asked if he wished to say anything, and having
carelessly answered that he should reserve his defence,
the depositions were taken by Mr. Hurlstone, the second
clerk, and ho was fully committed to Newgate fOr

AMERICAN NEWS.
ARRIVAL OF THE FRANKLIN..
SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 14.
The United States' Mail steam-ship Franklin, Captain
3. A. Wotton, arrived off Cowes at eleven sow. to-day,
after a passage of ten days fifteen hours from New York,
and having landed the English mails and passengers,
proceeded on her voyage to Havre.
The Franklin has nearly 120 passengers, a few only
of whom were for Southampton. On the 9th inst.,. lat.
49.50, long. 37.27, the Franklin passed a large iceberg,
having seen several large ones on the previous day.

The cargo consists of 65 tons whalebone, 60 P &eke.g ea

The news by this arrival is of three days' later date
than received by the last Liverpool steamer, but con-
tains nothing of great importance.
The American papers are chiefly occupied with ac-
counts of the life of the late Henry Clay, and the prepa-
rations for his .funeral obsequies.
The steam-ship Northern Light arrived at New York
on the 2d inst. with 300 passengers, by the Nicaragua
route from California, and specie to the value of 188,817
dolle. on freight.
Advices from Acapulco to the 4-14 of June state-that
Mr. Rice, the American Constenf ):: arrested and
authorities, on
committed to prison by the • _e...account of some transactions connected with the sale
e•all
of the steamer Commodore Stockton. The following
particulars of the occurrence are given, which it was
feared would lead to trouble between the tiro Govern-
ments:—
" Our flag has been struck 4 Acapulco, and the nation
insulted, by the arrest and imprisonment of Mr. F. W.
Rice, the Consul. The propeller Commodore Stockton
was advertised for public sale by the Consul, by order of
the captain, and purchased by the chief engineer on be-
half of himseir and 'some other. of the crew._ The terms of
the sale required a certain sailLto be paia down within A
few hours, and the balance within-one 'day.- The purchaser'
of making the first payment
asked and obtained a delay
twice, and at length the Consul, in accordance with-mercan-
tile usage, advertised for sale again on account of the former
purchaser—he having failed to comply with the terms of the
sale—and posted the notices of the sale in different parts iof
the city, all of which were nearly torn down by the chief
engineer, including one posted on the door of the Consul's
office • and on approaching for the purpose of removing
another's notice of the sale posted on the Consul's house, Air.
"Rice appeared pistol in hand, and obliged hitnito desist and
leave the premises. -For this a complaint was entered, and
the Consul, in his uniform, with his flag in his hand, was con.
signed to prison.".
By these advises it also appears that President Arista
seriously meditates a coup d'etat. The following appears
on this subject in the IVew York Herald :
"It is more than probable, in the present exhausted con-
.dition of the public treasury, and on account of the hope-
less state •in which the late Congress; has left the country,
that ere this reaches you some stirring scenes will have been
enacted. It is stated that, in view of the pressing;internal and

11th article of the treaty of Guadalupe
A grave misunderstanding is stated to have taken
place between the Mexican Government and the French
Minister, in consequence of a demand of the-latter that
the payment to the English bondholders of a portion
of the indemnity money should be subjected to the
usual export duty on silver. The French Minister sent
strong diplomatic notes to the Mexican Government, one
of which was returned to his Legation,
The following on this subject is extracted from the
New York Herald :
"It' appears that a grave misunderstanding has taken
place between the French Minister and the Mexican Go-
vernment, growing out of the promise to pay 2,500,000 dolls.
on account of the English debt. The question was, to know
whether or not the duty imposed by the fiscal laws upon
money sent to a foreign country would be paid. AL Falcon-
net, the representative of English creditors, held that the
arrangement would not be in accordance with good faith if
the creditors were to pay 200,000 dolls. duty on the funds.
The Mexican Government approved the reasons of M. Fal-
connet. But the French Minister protested, and demanded

that the law shall be applied to all alike. He sent very
strong diplomatic notes to the Mexican Government, and it
is said that one was returned to the Legation. It is, says
Le Trait d'Union, the cause of the departure of the Se-
cretary of the Legation for France. It is believed that the
English Minister has promised his aid to the Mexican Go-
vernment in the affair. If so, it will become a Franco-Anglo-
Mexican question."
A telegraphic dispatch from Washington,: dated the
2d inst., states that Mr. Webster had expressed himself
strongly opposed to the movement in favour of an inde-
pendent nomination for the Presidency. The Select
Committee of the Senate had reported that the great
mass of statistics in reference to the census, compiled at
an enormous cost to the country, are, from the negli-
gence or want of capacity with which they bad been
procured, completely unreliable. '
The British mail steamer Quito, Captain Wells,
arrived at Panama on the 18A1 June, with dates from
Valparais-, to the 30th May. The accounts of the silver
mines at Copiapo continued favourable. The magnetic
electrie.telegraph be►wec n Copiap, and Valparaiso had
been brought out by Ur. Wheelwright, in shares of 500
dulls, each; capital 200,000 dolls.
The following is the latest intelligence received from
Peru and Ecuador by the Quito:—
. pEgu.—The result of Flores' expeditions against Guay..
aquil was anxiously looked for, the more so as the Republic
of New Granada had assumed a decidedly hostile attitude;
to meet which Peru was also making some warlike prepara-
tions. Recent periodicals from Lima advise the proximate
intention of the Government to effect some changes in the
licenses of trade as affecting foreigners (patents), and also
some new arrangements respecting guano; among others,
that of keeping the Chincha Islands under the eye of a Go-
vernment steamer.

" ECUADOR.—By private advices we learn that Flores was
at Puna on the 4th inst. with 950 men, all in good health.
The brig Tres Hermanos, under the command of Major Jack-
ion, anu the Union, with 15 men, both from this port, had
arrived at Puna, and joined the expedition.
" The steam-ship Quickstep had also arrived, and landed
40 passengers at Guayaquil, The latter vessel returned to
Payta for coal, where she was on the 12th inst.
" Much sickness prevailed among the soldiers of the Ecua-
dorian Government at Guayaquil, and 20 to 30 wore dying
daily."
"Captain Donin was at Guayquil with the United States
frigate Portsmouth, and purposed sailing for Panama on the
sth inst.

" It was thought that the Flores' expedition was in a
rather precarious position, unless Peru rendered prompt and
open aid.
" The Peruvian steam-ship Rimac, with a brig of war,
had been at Puna, with an admiral on board of the former,
who intimated to General Urbina that he was ready to enter
into a convention for Flores to leave Ecuador; but the chief
magistrate would make no arrangements whatever, deeming
the course pursued by the Peruvian Government in the whole
affair as unfriendly and treacherous.
" The Rimac left Guayaquil without the admiral effecting
anything. The British admiral entered Guayaquil the
former views theaesndpedit

There was very little change in monetary affairs since
the sailing of the last packet, the demand for foreign ex-
change for remittance by the Franklin being only to a
moderate extent. Bills on London were quoted 1104 to
1101; Paris, sf. 17ic. to sf. 15c.; Amsterdam, 404 to

We heve received the Paris journals of yesterday
The Constitutionnel has an article on the repore
tothe
presented
consumptiontotheE of foreignnglishHo winesuseof in England. Commons Therelativ€
Constitutionnel, although a systematic opponent of
free. trade principles in France, a 3 being likely to in-
jure the public treasury, seems to think that a large
reduction of the duties on French wines in England
would sc much increase the consumption that the
amount of revenue to the State would be rather in-
creased ;han diminished. The Constitutionnel re-
gards the reduction also as a measure prescribed by
equity. There can be no doubt that a large reduc-
tion of the duty on French wines would lead to an
enormous increase of consumption in England,
and be )f great benefit to the French growers.
There aie certain French wines which are at once
wholesome and cheap, and which please the
I English taste. The duty on some of these wines
in England amounts to three times its original
cost, and acts therefore almost as a prohibition.
Good Beaune, for instance, if there were no duty,
could be had for sixpence per bottle in England, and
Picardy, an excellent substitute for sherry, for about
the same price. If, therefore, the duty in England
were to be no more than the cost of the wine, the
English would have a choice of some ten to fifteen
good wises, at a total cost of about one shilling per
bottle, and none but the very poorest persons would
be unabe to drink French wine. The reduction of

171.azA, the Algerine chief, has escaped from
Ham. The t"jourrier du Pas de Calais of the 13th
says :—" On Saturday night Bou-Maza, ho ws
detained primer in the citadel of Ham, succeeded a in
effecting his escape. All that is known of the matter
is that he took the railway at Montecourt, and that
he had with lien a miller'3 man, who used to act as
his servant. ?he only luggage that the fugitives bad
,with them WES a trunk and a carpet bag. The news
of his escapt was immediately transmitted to the
various atithoities.''
The Impartial de la _lleurthe says :—" The Go-
vernment has just extended to the Protestant minis-
aers' and the ninisters of the different sects paid by
;the State, the indulgence which is extended to Ca-
Itholic ministers, of being exempt from the oath."
It is stated tat the President of the Republic was
, imost anxious to be accompanied in his journey to
Strasburg by /I. Fould ; but that when the proposi-
tion was made, the ex-Minister expressed his regret
that he was unable to accept the invitation in conse-
quence of previtus arrangements for a visit to the south.
;The answer did not appar, however, sufficiently deci-
sive ; and a second intimation is said to have been
made on the same subject, but without success, and M.
'Fould set out on the journey be had originally ar-
Fanged. This has given rise to a good deal of con-
jecture as to the probability of M. Fould re-entering
the Cabinet, of which the invitation to join the Pre-
sident was to he the prelude. Others doubt much
that such a reselt would have taken place even had
M. Tould consented, but believe that the attention
shown to the ex. Minister was more apparent than real.
A letter from Marseilles of the 10th inst. states that
is dreadful storm, accompanied with thunder, light-
ning, and torrents of rain, fell on Wednesday last on
;the town of Auriol and the neighbourhood. An un-
!fortunate peasant, who was sitting in his kitchen
'smoking his pipe, near his wife, who was rocking
'her infant in a cradle, was killed by the lightning :
'the woman and child were not hurt. At the country-
!house of Notre Dame, belonging to M. Remusat, two
children and their grandmother were severely
wounded.
A letter from Montauban of the 9th states, that the
torrents of rain which fell on the 7th inst. caused con-
siderable injury to the canton of Lauzerte. The wheat
'which was out in th. fprtilo valloy of i3algoelonno
.was all swept away by the overflowing of the river.
:The poor farmers, who had already suffired severely
from the hailstormq, are in a state of desolation. The
communes of Denfort, Montagude, Miramont, and
St. Naßaire have likewise suffered severely.
A letter from Nyons, in the Drotne, of the 10th
instant, says, that the communes of St. Maurice and
bt.' res bad been ravaged on the afternoon of the
7th inst.l3° by a terrific hailstorm. The hailstones,
which it is said were as big as walnuts, had com-

We gladly give insertion to a letter on the subject
of "Railway Superannuation," which will be found
in another part of this day's impression. Our cor-
respondent does not overrate the deep interest we feel
is a project which, if adopted, would prove so emi-
nently beneficial to a numerous and meritorious body.
It is, as we have already stated, only surprising that
something of the kind has not already been brought
into operation. But when we consider the extreme
difficulty of procuring general concurrence in any
proposition, however judicious and well devised, our
astonishment ceases, and we can congratulate the
salaried railway employes,
the parties chiefly inte-
rested on the removal of many impediments that
formerly obstructed a satisfactory arrangement, on
the consequent prospect of a speedy solution of the
problem. The directors of the different companies
have, with a wise and judicious liberality,
agreedto
bear a moiety of the expense of carrying the plan into
execution, thus rendering it far more advantageous to
the subscribers than any hitherto
known. Not only
will they receive the entire benefit of their
payments, bat every shilling will be practi-
cally doubled. This is, indeed, an inducement
to a provident care for the future which hes
Id elicit the
not often been paralleled, and which should
cordial thanks and gratitude of the officials, and lead
to their unanimous adhesion to the scheme which
has been promulgated.
Our respected correspondent, while
unqualified approval of the project, recording his
with one excep-
tion, urges the propriety of an alteration, or modifis
cation, of the clause, which he deems objectionable.
It is to the sixth rule that he takes
exception, viz.,
that, "In the event of a subscriber resigning his
situation, or being dismissed, for
any reason short of
fraudulent dealing, he shall receive back the whole
of his :contributions, without interest ; but
in the event of his dying before receiving the super-
annuation
to the fund." These points, we believe, are those
allowance, his payments will be forfeited
which have excited the most serious differences and
elicited the greatest discussion. Both topics have
received close and attentive consideration, and been
much canvassed not only by the provisional com-
mittee, but all persons in any degree interested in the
transaction. If the payments were devoted exclu-
sively to providing a superannuation fund, and that
no return whatsoever were made to parties retiring,
or being dismissed from the service, the allow-
ances would naturally be larger than could otherwise
be the case. As the entire fund is applied for the
exclusive benefit of the members, any diversion
from the primary objects of superannuation must of
course diminish it, pro Canto, and render it inadequate
for the purpose intended. It would have greatly
simplified the calculations if repayments of any
kind could be avoided, and if the whole sub
scriptions were to be applied to the payment of the
deferred annuities. It was, however, essential that
some provision should b 3 made for tho 011‘108 of
parties who, without gross fault on their own parts,
were rendered ineligible by resignation or dismissal;
of course the companies could not be expected to pay
money on account of persons no longer in their service.
It was, however, conceded that the subscriber should
be allowed to continue a member by paying the full
amount of his subscription, in place of the moiety, as
was previously the case. But even something more
was required. It would be difficult for a person out
actuary, u finallyar
of employment, and therefore probably, with dimi-
nished means, to pay an increased subscription ; some-
thing, then, should be given in the event of such pay-
ment
to decided,return
with
tbheeinagssent impossible,ofthe
and w
experienced
y
the payments made without interest. Complaints
would otherwise ba made, more especially in
cases of dismissal, where the parties had served
out a considerable portion of the time which would
have entitled him to a psnsion.
It certainly appears hardto deprive the families of
men dying in the service of a similar return of the
subscriptions from which they have received no bene-
fit. There is, however, an obvious distinction be-
tween the cases. It has never been intended
the
fund should make provision for the fs .1. mi ies of de
ceased officials, or supersede the necessity for life
insurance. Its object is to render happy in h t eir old
age those who have laboured long and faithfully, and
who are no longer competent to earn their own sup-
port. A person who was duly selected es an annuitant
could transmit no claim to his representatives in the
event of his death, immediately after his superan-
nuation. That would unquestionably be a hardship,
but could it be provided against without completely
altering the plan, and requiring a considerable
addition to the annual subscriptions ? If it were
practicable, we should greatly desire to see
it carried into effect ; for anything calculated to as-
sist families when deprived of their protector and
supporter should, if possible, be adopted. We would
even rejoice to think that life insurance were rendered
obligatory on every man with a family depending on his
exertions. But, as we have already stated, to do so
would require much larger contributions, and more
than railway employes with limited salaries might be
willing to pay. We believe, however, that
the point is still in some respects under

Before the final elections are completed it may be
as well to review with as much accuracy as possible the
nature of the results already known in regard to the
new Parliament. To-morrow, besides other county
elections in England, the election of Buckingham will
commence, according to routine, with the nomination.
Within two or three days afterwards the rest of
the contests throughout the United Kingdom will
have been accomplished. It is advisable, therefore,
we cannot but think, to cast a glance back at the
" facts and figures" collected together in reference to
those contests which have been up to this
time actually completed. Already, then, 280
constituencies have pronounced upon the momentous
question submitted to their judgment by the SOVE-
REIGN. These 280 constituencies have elected 451
representatives. These 451 representatives must be
divided as follows :
Liberals • • • •
Derbyites
Liberal Conservatives ..

.. 230
.. 165
. . 56

Total —• 451
Grouping together the Liberals and the Libera
Conservatives, we have the aggregate of—

Majority for the Opposition 121
But putting the 56 Liberal Conservatives aside as
neutral, we have the subjoined as the result c-
the calculation :

Out of the foregoing 280 constituencies there have
been gained no less than thirty-four seats by the
Liberals-12 by the Liberal Conservatives—and 30
by the Derbyites. The Liberal gains are mentioned

consideration, so far, at least, that when
a more accurate knowledge of the working of the
system can be attained from the experience of the
first seven years, it will be endeavoured to return the

amount of subscriptions to the representatives of
parties dying in the service. That will probably
be the use made of any surplus funds; and we have

... 1

no doubt that there will be such a surplus,
for every judicious actuary leaves a certain margin
to prevent the possibility of a deficiency. In the
meantime we have no doubt that arrangements might
be made with a respectable assurance company,
whereby
the full amount of subscriptions would be
' returned to every man dying within seven or four-
teen years. A small payment only would be re-
quired for this purpose, which would be reduced in
proportion to the number of persons entering into
the contract.

and the settlement i 9 going off better then was ex-
pected after such a rise. Midland, North-Westeta,
Caledonian, Lancashire and Yorkshire, Blackwell and
Eastern Counties, Great Westet a, South-Eastern, and
South Wales have been in demand at fuller sates. Some
of the others are barely so good. The Foreign
lines have mostly borne higher values, and with more

SHERIFFS' COURT.—(THIS
There were only two cases in the list, both of which
were withdrawn. The jury, several of whom bad no.
called from distant parts, complained of the in'-on
•yenience they had been put to. AU that the coulilob
jurymen receive is 4d, individually for each case in 0'
they are empanelled. It is obvious, therefore, that sou',
rule of court ought to be made so as to admit of Pri,
men having notice to prevent the necessity of their t
necessary attendance, for many have to come from
extremity of the county.
