CHERBOURG AND POOLE.—On Tuesday last the
municipality of Cherbourg entertained the Mayor
and corporation of Poole and the directors of the Somerset
and Dorset Railway Company at Cherbourg, on the opening
of a new line of steamers running between the towns just
mentioned. At the banquet, which took place in the hall of
the new baths, there were present the Mayor and President
of the Chamber of Commerce of Cherbourg, the Admiral of
the Port, the Sous Prefet, Count de Tocqueville, Count de
Beranger, M. Alexandre Dumas, the authorities of the
Chemin de Fer de l'Ouest, the English Consul, Mr. H.
Hamond. The English visitors were accompanied by Mr.
Henry Seymour, M.P., for Poole. The Mayor of Cherbourg
proposed " The health of Queen Victoria," and the Eng-
lish Consul " The Emperor of the French." The Admiral
of the port then gave the toast of " The English Army
and Navy," in an excellent English speech. Mr. H. Sey-
mour proposed in French "The health of the Mayor of
Cherbourg." In doing so, he said the new line of steamers
would unite the west of France and the west of England.
The railway, the directors of which were present, and
which had just been finished, connected Poole, through
the fertile valleys of Dorset and Somerset, with the rich
mineral district of South Wales. In that country there
was a large and prosperous population, likelyto want the
very articles which France could best supply—viz., pro-
visions and dress. The same railway opened a direct western
route to the manufacturing counties of the north. From
Cherbourg, on the French side of the Channel, there were
railways to Tours and Paris, and a direct railway route
through the western etties of France to the Spanish
frontier. Between all these lines arrangements had been
made to facilitate the passage of goods and passengers,
and there could be no doubt that the new steamers would
open a great western communication batween the cen-
tres of manufacturing industry in France and England.
He believed commerce to be the true civiliser of nations
—a truth the Emperor had enforced when he proposed
the treaty of 1860. Since then England had been invaded
not by French soldiers, but by French merchandise, andthe
entente cordiale had never been closer. He had read with
pleasure that an Englishpilway had orderedls locomotives
of a French house, and it had been predicted that Gladia-
teur was only the first of a lino of conquerors. Competi-
tion appeared to have developed in France powers which
had hitherto been unknown, and French diplomacy-was ex-
tending the same advantages to other European countries.
M. Alexandre Dumas proposed "the memory of William
Shakspeare," and the proceedings were brought to a close.
We understand that Mrs. Tyndal Bruce, of Falk-
land, has munificently gifted the sum of £lO,OOO for the
purpose of establishing fellowships and scholarships inthe
1 University of Edinburgh, and £5,000 for the like purpose
in the University of St. Andrew's.—Edinburgh Courant.
