THE HERO OF ALIWAL.—We understand that this
gallant veteran will pay a visit to Canterbury very shortly,
to review the troops he so bravely led to the charge against
the Seikhs.—Kentisli Observer.
We regret to announce the death of Lieutenant-
Colonel Sir Charles Chichester, 81st Regiment, which took
place at Toronto, after four days' illness.
SOYER'S MODEL KITCHEN FOR THE POOR.—The
Government having purchased this extraordinary kitchen,
now in Dublin, for the south union in that city, it is to be
removed at once from its present site, the Royal Barrack!!
Esplanade, to that most densely populated district, the
liberty of Dublin, the latter spot being more commodious
and better adapted for the benevolent purpose in view. The
good that has already been done is scarcely to be estimated,
but some notion of the extent of usefulness may be gathered
from the following extract of a letter from the resident
manager to Monsieur Soyer :—" May 8, 1847.—As you are, I
no doubt, anxious to know how the kitchen progresses,
have gone into the calculation, of which the following is tL.
result :—We have on Monday and Tuesday cooked porridge
and stirabout of rice and Indian meal for 31,270 person*
using 4,8641 b. of meal, and 5,0341 b. of rice, and 1% cwt. of
salt, at an expense of 11-16 of a penny per ration of 21b.
each, making together 62,5401 b. Wednesday and to .day Wa
made 22,760 portions of soup, using on Wednesday 4 cwt, of
barley, 4 cwt. of flour, 2 cwt. of meat, 1 cwt. of salt, 141b*
of fat, 241 b. of sugar, 21b. of pepper and ground spice, 1461 b.
of onions, at an expense of 5-16 of a penny per ration of
pint; and to-day (Thursday) we used 5761 b. of pea meal,
3 cwt. of flour, 3 cwt. of American pork, 31b. of pepper, 133
lb. of sugar, at an expense of 5-16 of a penny per ration-
The quantity of fuel consumed is a quarter of a ton per day.
By ten o'clock all the city depots were supplied. On Mel
11, I made 15,100 quarts of receipt No. 4, in your chari-
table cookery book ; it was excellent and praised by every
body; General Sir R. Bourke and many of the pi-Inc/WI
of the relief committees were with me, and highly de-
lighted. The food, bread, and biscuits are distributed
without the least confusion. This is the first day I bays
had an opportunity of getting the account of anedril.
written out for the secretary. A most important rea.lpt
arising from the use of your kitchen is, that between the_
south and north side a great economy is effected, namely, IT
,
the south side, where your kitchen is used, each ration with
bread comes 2d., and oil the north side each ration eellyt
to Bid. ;_therefore, through your system there is a seidr4_e:
11,d. on every ration. To conclude, lam happy to gs:ey,!ll
all the different kinds of food are very much apprr,fed of by
all parties."
