CELEBRATION of the TERCENTENARY of
the BIRTH of SHAKSPE ARE, at Stratford-upon-
Avon. The Tercentenary Committee (of which Sir Robert
N. C. Hamilton, Bart., K.C.8., is Chairman) are now receiv-
ing SUBSCRIPTIONS, and they may also be paid to the
account of the Tercentenary Committee, at the Stourbrid,ge
and Kidderminster or Warwick and Leamington Banks,
Stratford-upon-Avon ; Messrs. Greenway, Smith, and
Greenway, Warwick; or their London agents, Messrs.
Smith, Payne, and Co , Messrs. Hanburys and Co., or Messrs.
Glyn and Co., bankers, London.
The Tercentenary Committee, in submitting the subscrip-
tion list to the nation, most earnestly appeal to the admirers
of Shakspeare for their aid and assistance. The Committee
rest their claims upon the ground that Stratford is not only
the birthplace of Shakspeare, but the centre of attraction to
all admirers of the great Poet's works, and that it was his
home, the town he loved, and where he lived and died.

APPEAL.

The Committee of Management have to state that, since
the beginning of the year 1860, the Royal National Lifeboat
Institution has expended £32,000 on various Lifeboat Estab-
lishments on the Coasts of England, Scotland, and Ireland.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the
Society and other means, since its formation, is 12,800;
tor' which services 82 Gold Medals, 718 Silver Medals, and
£16,480 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu-
tion has also expended £67,000 on Life-boats, Life-boat
Transporting-carriages, and Boat-houses.
The Committee desire to express their grateful sense of
the generous support which they have received from the
British public during the past few years, a support which
has enabled them to establish their present magnificent floet
of 123 Lifeboats on the shores of the United Kingdom.
Deeply sensible, however, of the great responsibility that
rests on them to maintain their fleet in a thoroughly efficient
state, and rCrews practised in the management of their
boats, whin can only be effected by a large and peananent
annual income, they earnestly appeal to all classes of their
countrymen to aid them in upholding- and perpetuating so
,reat and truly national a work.
The Committee gratefully acknowledge the following con-
tributions:—

City-hall for the purpose of selecting a number of
persons for emigration to Victoria. There was a
large number of married men and women and their
children in the hall, and several unmarried women,
healthy and good looking, all of whom, says the
Morning News, evinced the utmost anxiety to have
their names enrolled for emigration. There wes a
selection made of 75 men and women, from 18 to
35 years of age, with no more than two children,
who should be under 12 years of age. The first
batch of emigrants will sail in a few days ; and

AN APPEAL TO MR. PANIZZI.

(From the Athencrunt.)

Having ourselves repeatedly been subjected to the same
inconvenience complained or by our contemporary, we would
very earnestly commend the following statement to the con-
sideration of the Librarian at the British Museum :

"We have had occasion to make use of the Reading-
room of the British Museum for many years, with never-
failing reason to acknowledge the courtesy and attention of
the officials of all grades employed there. Of late, how-
ever, it has been our lot to find that the ordinary period
within which a student can obtain a book from the Library
is never less than half-an-hour, and on more than one oc-
casion a whole hour has elapsed before scree carefully-in-
dicated volume reached us, impatient and eager to save
time. It was understood, when the new Reading-room was
opened.. that the time of supplying students with their ma-
terials would be greatly shortened compared with that
which was customary on the old system. With regret we
find that the reverse is the rule. Worn out of patience,
we, one day, while waiting for a volume, paced round the
readers' desks to ascertain if their crowded state could
account for the delay in our receipt of books. The radiat-
ing desks can accommodate about three hundred readers :
at them were seated exactly one hundred and forty-seven
persons, or less than half the number that might have
taxed the arrangements of the establishment. This was
within an hour of closing the Reading-room, and when
many readers would abstain from demanding books that
could nut be used on the current day. At any rate, the
place was nut half full; yet an hour and ten minutes elapsed
ere we got the book in demand. Few students can afford
to wait even half this time. Surely Mr. Panizzi can do
something to render long delays the exception, and not the
rule.

THE ARMY.

Among the silent and unobtrusive agencies which
have effected an incalculable amount of good at
Aldershott Camp, must be reckoned the "Dispen-
sary and Infirmary," which was established for the
treatment of diseases specially prevalent in the
army. The institution is supported by voluntary
contributions, assisted by a grant of £250 per an-
num from the War Department. From a recent re-
port it appears that during the last 12 months ad-
vice and medicine have been given to 2,068 persons
of these 61 have been in-patients, and 2,007 out-
patients. Of the females admitted, six have been
sent to service, six forwarded to their homes, eight
sent to reformatories, and two married. The utility
of the institution having been satisfactorily esta-
blished, it is in contemplation to enlarge the accom-
modation of the building and extend the benefits of
the charity.
The regimental returns for the month of August
have just been issued at Aldershott, and show the
figure of merit of battalions and companies, and the
number of marksmen per cent. at target practice at
that station during that period to be as follows :-
Ist battalion, 3d Regiment—Battalion, 46.68; best
company, 51.47 ; marksmen per cent., 12. 64th Re-

Sir R. Mayne and the Modern Gomorrah,

The number of crimes committed in the year 1861
was—in the City, 1,029 ; in the metropolitan dis-
trict, 11,203. The area of the City is little more
than one square mile; the population, 111,784 per-
sons; and the number of houses inhabited and un-

district is 571 square miles ; the population,
3,110,684 persons; the number of houses in-
habited and uninhabited, 461,848. The propor-
tion of crimes to population is—in the City, 1
crime to 108 persons; in the metropolitan district,
1 crime to 277 persons. In this relation, crimes
in the City are upwards of 156 per cent. higher
than in the metropolitan district. The propor-
tion of crimes to inhabited houses is—in the
City, 1 crime to 12 houses; in the metropolitan
&strict, 1 crime to 37 houses. In this relation,
crimes in the City are upwards of 208 per cent.
higher than in the metropo itan district. Let
Curnhill and Cheapside ronder over these state-
ments. The City is proved to be a sink of ini-
quity ; it is inhabited by a population of rogues
and vagabonds. Now we know where the tickets-
of•leave hide themselves ; now we know where
the dangerous classes have permanent settlement;
it is in the quadrangle of the Royal Exchange,
the rotunda of the Bank, and the purlieus of
Mark-lane, Mincing-lane, and St. Paul'a•church-
yard we must look for men of Bill Sykes's stamp—
that is, if we really wish to make their acquaint-
ance. Nothing less than a second Great Fire would
suffice to cleanse the second Gomorrah, and it must
not only consume the houses, but the people, for they
are lost in iniquity, and the city of London is, par
excellence, the criminal City. We only need to
have Sir Richard Mayne's police on duty in our
streets, and this moral plague-spot will become a
paradise.—City Press.

IN RE INIATCHETT.

This bankrupt was described as a lodger at the Prince of
Wales Tavern, Enfield, formerly contractor, and now out
of business. He had been arrested at the suit of Benjamin
Butler Caunt (executor of Benjamin Caunt), who had ob-
tained judgment against him whilst he was in Portugal.
There being no opposition the order for release was
granted.

MARK-LANE.

In the country markets, held on Saturday, the demand
for wheat was much less active, and, in some instances,
prices declined is per quarter. Barley, however, ruled firm,
and the value of oats, beans, and peas was well supported.
Flour moved off slowly, at late rates. On the Continent
rather more business is passing in wheat and spring corn
at very full prices. At New York the trade continues dull
with a limited export inquiry. There was a fair arrival of
English grain up to our market last week. The imports
from abroad amounted to 15,233 quarters of wheat, 10 bar-
ley, 38,653 oats, 805 beans, 5 peas, 2,585 linsesd, 1,510 oil
seeds, 165 sundry seeds, 1,415 sacks and 4,611 barrels of
flour.

Fresh up to Mark-lane to-day the arrivals of English
wheat were very moderate, but the quality of the produce
was good. Owing to more favourable accounts from the
north of England and from Scotland respecting the in-
gathering of the crops, there was much less activity in the
demand fur all qualities, and, in order to effect sales, fac-
tors were compelled to submit to a reduction of ls. per
quarter from Monday last.
There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the
stands. The demand for all descriptions was in a sluggish
state, yet no material change took place in prices, compared
with this day se'nnight. The tendency, however, was
decidedly in favour of buyers.

Floating cargoes of grain were in but moderate request,
on rather easier terms.

The supply of new English barley was very moderate,
Fine malting parcels were scarce, and such were quickly
disposed of at full prices. Inferior qualities, including
grinding and distilling sorts, were in fair average request,
at full quotations. The ahoy? of foreign produce was small
A steady business was transacted in malt, at
.quite pre-
vious rates.

The supply of oats was tolerably large. Good and fine
corn ruled firm, at full quotations; but inferior qualities
wore a dull inquiry, on rather easier terms.
. _

Beans were in short supply and steady request, at full

currencies.

Peas fully supported last Monday's currency, with a fair
demand. Blue qualities, however, sold heavily at reduced
rates.

Both English and foreign flour moved off slowly, yet
prices were supported. _

Sir R. Mayne and the Modem Gomorrah,

The number of crimes committed in the year 1861
was—in the City, 1,029; in the metropolitan dis-
trict, 11,203. The area of the City is little more
than one square mile; the population, 111,784 per-
sons; and the number of houses inhabited and un-
inhabited, 1,479. The area of the metropolitan
district is 571 square mi)es ; the population,
3,110,684 persons; the number of houses in-
habited and uninhabited, 461,848. The propor-

tion of crimes to population is—in the City, 1
crime to 108 persons; in the metropolitan district,
1 crime to 277 persons. In this relation, crimes
in the City are upwards of 156 per cent. higher
than in the metropolitan district. The propor-
tion of crimes to inhabited houses is—in the
City, 1 crime to 12 houses ; in the metropolitan
&strict, 1 crime to 37 houses. In this relation,
crimes in the City are upwards of 208 per cent.'
higher than in the metropolitan district. Let

THE ARMY.

Among the silent and unobtrusive agencies which
have effected an incalculable amount of good at
Aldershott Camp, must be reckoned the "Dispen-
sary and Infirmary,' which was established for the
treatment of diseases specially prevalent in the
army. The institution is supported by voluntary
contributions, assisted by a grant of £250 per an-
num from the War Department. From a recent re-
port it appears that during the last 12 months ad-
vice and medicine have been given to 2,068 persons
of these 61 have been in-patients, and 2,007 out-
patients. Of the females admitted, six have been
sent to service, EX forwarded to their homes, eight
sent to reformatories, and two married. The utility
of the institution having been satisfactorily esta-
blished, it is in contemplation to enlarge the accom-
modation of the building and extend the benefits of
the charity.
The regimental returns for the month of August
have just been issued at Aldershott, and show the
figure of merit of battalions and companies, and the
number of marksmen per cent. at target practice at
that station during that period to be as follows :-

CELEBRATION of the TERCENTENARY of
the BIRTH of SIIAKSPEARE, at Stratford-upon-
Avon. The Tercentenary Committee (of which Sir Robert
N. C. Hamilton, Bart., K.C.8., is Chairman) are now receiv-
ing SUBSCRIPTIONS, and they may also be paid to the
account of the Tercentenary Committee, at the Stourbridge
and Kidderminster or Warwick and Leamington Banks,
Stratford-upon-Avon ; Messrs. Greenway, Smith, and
Greenway, Warwick ; or their London agents, Messrs.
Smith, Payne, and Co , Messrs. Flanburys and Co., or Messrs.
Glyn and Co., bankers, London.
The Tercentenary Committee, in submitting the subscrip-
tion list to the nation, most earnestly appeal to the admirers
of Shakspeare for their aid and assistance. The Committee
rest their claims upon the ground that Stratford is not only
the birthplace of Shakspeare, but the centre of attraction to
all admirers of the great Poet's works, and that it was his
home, the town he loved, and where he lived and died.

MAltri-LANE.

In the country markets, held on Saturday, the demand
for wheat was much less active, and, in some instances,
prices
declined is per quarter. Barley. however, ruled firm,
and the value of oats, beans, and peas was well supported.
Flour moved off slowly, at late rates. On the Continent
rather more business is passing in wheat and spring corn
at very full prices. At New York the trade continues dull
with a limited export inquiry. There was a fair arrival of
English grain up to our market last week. The imports
from abroad amounted to 15,233 quarters of wheat, 10 bar-
ley, 33,653 oats, 805 beans, 5 peas, 2,585 linseed, 1,510 oil
seeds, 165 sundry seeds, 1,415 sacks and 4,611 barrels of
flour.

Fresh up to Mark-lane to-day the arrivals of English
wheat were very moderate, but the quality of the produce
was good. Owing to more favourable accounts from the
north of England and from Scotland respecting the in-
gathering of the .crops, there was much less activity in the
demand for all qualities, and, in order to effect sales, fac-
tors were compelled to submit to a reduction of ls. per
quarter from Monday last.

There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the
stands. The demand for all descriptions was in a sluggish
state, yet no material change took place in prices, compared
with this day se'nnight. The tendency, however, was
decidedly in favour of buyers.
Floating cargoes of grain were in but moderate request,
on rather easier terms.
The supply of new English barley was very moderate,
Fine malting parcels were scarce, and such were quickly
disposed of at full prices. Inferior qualities, including
grinding and distilling sorts, were in fair average request,
at full quotations. The show of foreign produce was small
A steady business was transacted in malt, at
,quite pre-
vious rates.
The supply of oats was tolerably large. Good and fine
corn ruled firm, at full quotations; but inferior qualities
were a dull inquiry, on rather easier terms.
Beans were in short supply and steady request, at full
currencies. . . .

Peas fully supported last Monday's currency, with a fair
domand. Blue qualities, however, sold heavily at reduced

rates.

Both English and foreign flour moved off slowly, Set
prices were supported.
