was talking or our hands working in another,
as they would have credited that steam would
blow us across the kingdom as quickly as they
could get across their metropolis, or that light-
ning would be kind enough to turn postman and
carry our news in as many seconds as they could
send it in days ! So much of the changes of the
past, and we may now amuse ourselves in speculat-
ing on what the future has in store, and whether,
when the polished granite and the Portland stone
have played out their parts, the new comers
of that day will look back on as stirring
and eventful a chapter. Perhaps the last
of DARWIN'S prophecies will by that time be
fulfilled, and land and water traffic will have fallen
into desuetude in comparison with the superior at-
trmltions and buoyancy of aerial travelling. A
collision of balloons, or the explosion of an aerial
engine, may be the catastrophes most apprehended
when the Cornish granite gives up its records, and
the coins of Queen VICTORIA reign, and the Times
of July 20, 1865, come forth to the light of day.
At any rate we can have no better record of our
skill than solid works of public benefit, and if the
present generation goes on as it has begun, it will
leave a good many substantial memorials for the
service of those who come after.

kicked me. I found him good employment and he would
not go to it ; he gets drunk and wants me to keep him.
He is sponging upon me always and won't work. [Witness
exhibited a black eye and a cut nose.]

I advised him not to go in, but he did and wanted to go to
bed. Wo would not let him. He made a kick on my arm ;
I don't know that it was meant for me. He could work if
he liked, but he won't. He pulled the hair out of my head.
Prisoner had nothing to say.

This Institution is designed to supply a great national
want, viz., an asylum for the orphan daughters of sailors in
the Royal Navy and Merchants Service and of Marines.
It clothes, maintains, and educates them for domestic
service, and provides a home free of expense for former
inmates while out of situations, thus shielding them from the
temptations they might otherwise be exposed to.
Tee Committee earnestly APPEAL for CONTRIBU-
TIONS to meet the increasing applications through the
recent storms and loss f life at sea, and to enable them
eventually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
sailors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may perish by war.

University of Durham.

It has been resolved to carry into effect the follow-
ing recent regulations of the visitor and governors
of the University of Durham in the following man-
ner, the changes to commence with the Michaelmas
term, 1865:-
1. FACULTY OF THEOLOGY.

Lectures in Hebrew will form, as heretofore, a
regular part of the theological course ; and the
Hebrew prizes, which have been given since
1835, will be continued. Two new prizes of £5O
each will be given annually to the most deserving
students, where there is positive merit, on their
passing their final examination, in which proficiency.
in Hebrew will have due weight. Also two exhibi-
tions of £3O each, tenable for one year, after each
of the two preceding examinations. Other prizes
and exhibitions will be founded in this faculty, when
the funds derived from the abolished fellowships or
other sources shall permit.

The Metropolitan Board of Works,

The usual meeting of the Board was held yesterday al
the offices in Spring-gardens.

FINANCE,

The cash statement for tho current week shows a tots:
general balance of £459,919. _ _ _

The Main Drainage Committee recommended that the
sum of £lO,OOO bo granted to the engineer and his three
assistants in recognition of their services in connexion with
the main drainage works.
The consideration of the report was adjourned.
THE STATE OF LEICESTER-SQUARE.

A report from the medical officer of health of the parish of
St. Martin-in-the-Fields on the condition of Leicester-
square was referred to the Streets Committee. The report
was as follows:—" I have several times since the hot
weather commenced observed the state of Leicester-square.
On the 17th of April I saw within the railings three dead
cats, two dogs, a hare, and a cod's head, all in a putrefying
state. There was also a large heap of decomposing vege-
table matter, and a collection in a newspaper of what ap-
peared to myself and to the waterman the emptying of a
close-stool. During the summer I think somebody should
have authority to remove offensive matter from the square
at least once a week, or we shall have nuisances established
which may be injurious to health. Since writing the above
I saw yesterday the remains of four dead animals, two being
cats, and the others too much decomposed to be distin-
guished. One body was close to the railings, and so dis-
gusting that a delicate person passing might be made sick
at the sight ; and in hot weather this would in many cases
induce diarrhcea„ so that it is no exaggeration to say that
the condition of Leicester-square is a nuisance and inju-
rious to health."

THE HACKNEY CARRIAGE DUTIES.
An application made by the Chairman of the Board to the
Chancellor of the Exchequer for a portion of the metropo-
litan hackney-carriage duties to be applied to metropolitan
improvements was refused.
It was notified to the Board that the Wimbledon-park
Bill had been withdrawn.
The routine business was disposed of, and the Board
adjourned.

pressing themselves out of time and out of place on

fortunate member of the;dominions owning the sway
of his august mother if it secure us that vinculum
between its resources and their employment which
is all that is necessary for its permanent prosperity.

EMPLOYMENT OF JUVENILE PERSONS.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY rose, in pursuance of a
notice which he had given previously, to move that an
humble address be presented to her Majesty praying that
a commission be appointed to inquire into the employment
of juvenile persons. Ho said that his object was merely to
place this question in a tangible form before the house.
He drew the attention of their lordships to the fact that
children were employed in the country, under what was
called an engaged system of " Agricultural Gangs."
_ _

The Bishop of LINCOLN thanked the noble earl for hay-
ing brought the matter forward. He had information of the
fact that children were so employed, and one of the effects
of field labour was to incapacitate the girls from perform-
ing the duties required of them at home.

Earl GRANVILLE approved of the motion, which was
carried.

PRIZE MONEY.

Colonel DUNNE asked the Secretary of State for India
why the third instalment of the Delhi prize money had not
been paid according to the recommendation of the Prize
Committee, and when it would be paid.
Sir C. WOOD said the committee had been considering
the advisability of making a third distribution ; but as it
had come to their knowledge that there were a number of
prior claims still unsatisfied, the further distribution had
been postponed until those claims were satisfied.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, MAY 13.

The Neue freie Presse of to-day says :—" The
reply of Russia to the last note of Prussia was
despatched yesterday to Berlin. It advocates the
immediate convocation of the Diet of Schleswig-
Holstein, the elections to which should take place
on the basis of the electoral law of 1848 modified.
It• does not offer any opposition to the proposals of
Prussia in reference to Kiel."

PRUSSIA.

VIENNA, MAY 13th.

The Oesterreichische Zeitung of to-day publishes
an analysis of the reply of Austria to the proposal
of Prussia relative to the convocation of the Diet of
the Duchies. Austria consents to this step upon
condition that all questions to be discussed by the
Diet should be submitted to it jointly by Austria
and Prussia, and that the Duke of Augustenburg
should remain in Kiel during the session. Austria
does not object to the electoral law of 1848 as the
basis of the elections.
