MR. FORTES° UE.

The Chief Secretary for Ireland has addressed a letter
to the electors of the County Louth, announcing his ac-

ceptance of the office of President of the Board of Trade.
Mr. Fortescue thanks the electors for the kindness which
he has experienced from them, and reviews his official
connexion with the Irish administration. He reminds
them that he has been intimately connected with the
Irish policy of the Liberal party since Lord Russell be-
came Premier upon the death of Lord Palmerston, and
observes that in his capacity of Minister responsible
for Irish affairs in the Cabinet he has been " fortu-
nate enough to take a large part in the great
measures of Mr. Gladstone and the Government, which
have signalized a period one of the most momentous in
the history of Ireland," and observes respecting the two
leading measures of his time : - " The Irish Church Act
has during that time at length restored thepeople of this
country to a true state of political equality—the es•
sential condition of all peace or progress—without which
any other reform would have ended in failure. The
Irish Land- Act, in spite of misrepresentation and mis-
understanding, is becoming known to the• tenant far-
mers of Ireland as a safe protection to their industry and
.independence, and therefore a powerful stimulus to their
enterprise and self-respect ; while landlords begin to
see that such results must largely. benefit themselves."
He declares his sense of the favour conferred on him in
enabling him as their representative to labour more
effectually for Ireland than he could otherwise have done,
and assures them that he does not abandon the duty still
incumbent on him as an Irish member of the Govern-
ment a duty which lie thus defines :—" That
duty is still to contribute to the successful prosecution
of that recent. - policy towards Ireland -which has been

pursued by the Imperial Government, under the powerful
leadership of Mr. Gladstone, and by that of Ireland,
under the enlightened administration of Lord Spencer—a
policy in which I have had faith for many years, and in
days very different from the present, and which I am
more than ever convinced, will work, and is working
through a thousand channels, for the permanent welfare
of all classes of our fellow countrymen." The retirement
of Mr. Fortescue is sincerely regretted by the friends of
the Government in Ireland.

LAW AND POLICE.

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A BANKRUPT. —At the Oen-

tral Criminal Court yesterday, before the Recorder,
George Henderson Fairchild was charged under the Bank-
ruptcy Act with having, within four months of a petition
being lodged against him in bankruptcy, removed a por-
tion of his property. with intent to defeat the law and to
defraud his creditors. There were also counts charging
the defendant with maliciously damaging property. The
defendant was formerly. the proprietor of the " Sun "
public-house at Greenwich, which belongs to Messrs.
Taylor, Walker, and Co, brewers. He entered into posses-
sion in November, 1869, and in the following July the
landlords put in a distress for rent, and a sale of the
effects took place.

SERIOUS FORGERY.-At the Central Criminal Court,
before the Recorder, Stanger Tate. 37, a man who has
occupied a. good position in society, was charged with
forging and uttering two cheques of the value, respec-
tively, of £3lO and £267, with intent to defraud. Prisoner
it seems, made the acquaintance of an officer in the Royal
Artillery, named Land, who had an account with Messrs.
Cox, the Army agents. Early in October they were at
Brighton, and prisoner got Land to write him a cheque
for £lO, saying he wanted to send to Scotland
to back a horse. Instead of using the cheque
as stated, he kept it, and had thus the opportunity of
seeing how it was written. A short time afterwards he
went to Woolwich to see another officer, and took
advantage of his absence from the room to remove four
blank cheques from a cheque-book which was lying
on the table. He subsequently wrote the cheques which
formed the subject of the charge, and Messrs. Cox, think-
ing the signatures genuine, cased them. The prisoner
pleaded, guilty, and was sentenced to five years' penal
servitude. Mr. Poland, who was for the prosecution,
asked that about £2OO of money which had been re-
covered should be handed to Messrs. Cox, who were the
sufferers, and the application was granted.

ANOTHER ESCAPE FROM HERTFORD. GAOL.—
During the night of Saturday, or early on Sunday morn-
ing, a prisoner succeeded in effecting his escape front
Hertford Gaol. His name is William Gordon, aged 32,
described as, a confectioner, tramping from Edinburgh,
and on the 4th of August last he was committed for bur-
glary, and stealing a silver tankard and other plate, from
the house of Mr. James Adams, at Bishopstortford: The
prisoner was employed in the gaol as a tailor, and
effected :his escape in the following manner :—He was
locked up as usual on Saturday night, and when the
patrol left duty at six o'clock in the morning he reported
all safe. At seven oclock Gordon was missing. H. had
removed a.small iron grating in his cell by forcing out
the wood work in which it was fixed, by the aid; it is
supposed of his tailors' shears. He scaled the outer wall
of the prison by an improvised rope, consisting of his
sheets and blankets, and which he had taken the precau-
tion to weight with metal buttons served out to him in his
capacity of tailor. Every effort was at once made by the
governor of the gaol, Mr. S. Hatchard, to secure the
runaway's capture. This is the second escape from
Hertford prison within three months.
THE POLICE AND EXTRA DUTIES.—A letter has
-been sent by the Home Secretary to the magisterial
authorities and others having power over the police in the
country, stating that the matter. having been under his
consideration, it has been decided that the inspection of
common lodging-houses, the relief of vagrants and casuals,
the inspection of nuisances, and the inspection of weights
and measures are the only extra matters that can be under-
taken by the police with advantage to the public and a due
consideration of their own duties. In Essex and several
other counties the police are employed as cattle plague in-
spectors, and, according to this letter, if they continue
this duty the Government allowance will not be made.
Ih reference to this letter at the Quarter Sessions for
Dorsetshire last week, the Chairman (Lord Portman) said
nothing could be more inconvenient than to make a
change during the winter quarter. He suggested that
the Court should consider a plan as to the payment of the
police. Mr. Floyer, M.P., said the question had sug-
gested itself to him whether the Court should not offer
some remonstrance as to the limit which was attempted
to be put upon the services of the police-officers who_ were_
-was th4:the Act of Parliament upon which

The Brahmo Somaj in Madras is making little progress.
A short time ago a native paper was published by the
Veda Somaj, for the purpose of instructing the people
in its objects and uses, but from want of support the
paper was discontinued. It is believed that a Tamil
journal will be started in January next, and by this means
the Sonia] and Us working will be fully known by the
natives.

The winter has set in with unusual severity -in
Kulu, flocks of wild geese having winged their
way to the plains in immense numbers. They
occupied one entire night passing down the valley. To
judge by the numbers of ducks and teal that have passed,
it should be a capital season for sportsmen in the plains of
the Punjab.

His Excellency Sir Seymour Fitzgerald is at present
holding grand durbar in the Capital of Kattywar, where
all the chiefs of that province are assembled to do honour
to the representative of their Sovereign.
His Excellency the Viceroy was to proeeed to Dum
Dum last Wednesday morning to inspect the new build-
ings and machinery for the manufacture of the Snider
ammunition. The works are in an advanced state, and
are only waiting for completion the arrival of the iron
rJofing from England. After this inspection, his Excel-
lency was to pay a visit to Mr. Gilbert Hickey's
chemical conservancy works, where experiments have
been going on for some time past, with a view to solving
the problem of how to utilise the sewage of towns in the
readiest and most profitable manner.

Mr. It. R. Bayne, of Calcutta, has gained the first prize
of 1,000 rupees which was offered for a design for the new
General Market at Madras, and the second prize of 500
rupees has been awarded to Mr. R. F. Chisholm.
It is understood that Mr. Justice Kiudersley's appoint-
ment to the Bench of the Madras High Court is likely to
become permanent.

Corps, at Jullundur, December 3, aged 41; Captain
Smallman, Executive Engineer, Landour, from paralysis;

LADY PICOT.—Lady Pigot has lately returned
from Metz, where she has been labouring among the sick
and wounded French and Germans. Lady Pigot is ,Lbout
to return to France, in order to establish near Paris' or
Orleans a private ambulance in which she will be assisted
by an English medical gentleman and his wife.
NARROW ESCAPE.—An elderly woman, named
Sarah Parker—a hcusekeeper in the service of Mr. New-
ton, of the Willow Grange, Twickenham—was fined 495.
by the Brentford magistrates on Saturday for getting out
of a train at Twickenham whilst in motion, on the 23rd
December. From the evidence it appeared that the
defendant had an almost miraculous escape, as she was
dragged, clinging to the footboard of a second-class
carriage, for upwards of thirty yards before the train was
stopped. The fine was eventually paid.
LORD TOWNSHEND'S LAST SCHEME. Lord
Townshend's philanthropy often assumed a very eccentric
shape, but I believe lie has conferred a great benefit upon
a useful class of public servants by establishing the Cab-
men's Benevolent Association, which now consists of 300
members. An equally commendable experiment is the
Boardmen's Co-operative Association, the object of which
is to enable the public to employ " the sandwich men "
without the intervention of a e cormorants, who, while
paying only elevenpence a day for the work, charge their
customers half a.erown.— Correspondent of the Scotsnum.
TIIE BUSINESS IN THE PROBATE AND DIVORCE
COURTS.—=The lists have just been issued of the business
in these courts. There are 44 cases for hearing in the
Probate Court, viz., 27 without juries, and 10 by special
juries, but of the latter the Tichborne case will not come
on. In the Divorce Court there are 130 eases for trial,
92 by the court itself, 26 common juries, 11 special,
and one
and one before the full court. Of these 12 are for judicial

THE MINISTRY.—The minor Ministerial changes
rendered necessary by the vacancy in the Presidency of
the Board of Trade are, we believe, practically decided
upon. The Postmastership-General, unaccompanied by
a seat in the Cabinet, was not a post which could tempt
Mr. Stansfeld to leave the Treasury, and has been, as
already announced, conferred upon Mr. Monsen. This
gentleman will be succeeded as Under-Secretary of State
for the Colonies by Mr. Shaw-Lefevre. The Parliamen-
tary Secretaryship to the Board of Trade, which will
thus be vacant, has been, it is understood, offered to Mr.
Arthur Peel, who now fills a similar office at the Poor-
law Board. Mr. Peel will, we imagine, be succeeded by
Mr. Hibbert, the member for Oldham.—Observer.
NEW DESIGN FOR AN IRON-CLAD.—At the Liver-
pool Chamber of Commerce on Friday, Lord Sandon,
M.P., Mr. Graves, M.P., and several practical men in-
spected, previous to their submission to the naval autho-
rities, several plans and models which Mr. H. Jordan,
formerly Board of Trade surveyor, has just completed for
the construction of armour-clad vessels. The introduction
of a watertight iron bulkhead running from stein to stern
is a new feature in the plan, giving immense stability
to the vessel loncitudinally. The interior of the
vessel is also strengthened by nine or ten transverse bulk-
heads, as well as by the application of a longitudinal iron
framing upon the same principle as that of the patent
composite ship framing. The iron plates are put on
vertically, a surface of teak or pitch pine being laid on for
their reception. A saving of half the time usually re-
quired for construction is estimated, as well as a sum of
Agin-
court. in the building of ten vessels equal to the Agin-

THE CONDITION OF WESTMEATH.—His Excel-
lency the Lord Lieutenant, who has been visiting Lord
Greville, was at Mullingar on Saturday, and received
an address from the town commissioners, in which,
they expressed approval of his Excellency's mer-
ciful yet firm administration of the laws, their
loyal devotion to the Crown, and sincere adherence
to a Government so anxious to benefit this country.
His Excellency, in reply, said with great pain he felt
bound to remark on the condition of that part of the
country, for whilst general prosperity and freedom from
crime prevailed throughout Ireland, that county, and part
adjoining it, had been unfortunate exceptions. Within a
very few weeks the most wanton murders and other out-
rages had occurred, which showed that a barbarous
and lawless spirit still exists among the population.
Certain circumstances proved that these were not
acts of personal revenge against the victim, but the
work of an organised society, which, though, as he
believed, few in number, yet, by its own cruel and arbi-
trary code, attempts to regulate the affairs of the neigh-
bourhood. This was calculated to hinder. the introduetimi
and accumulation of wealth. It drove good men fron;t, the
locality. No matter what political party might be
authority, it was incumbent on' them to crush any Otgallj-
sation which attempted to enforce its laws by murder and
outrage. To meet this end an exceptional measure was
passed last session, which had had. its effect, and the
Government were prepared to exercise its provisions to
the fullest extent. Though it had not yet succeeded in
stopping crime, they did not despair that it might yet
do so. If found insufficient, there were other means
which Parliament would be amply justified in apply-
ing. In the end the law was sure to be too strong
for the leaders of disorder. His Excellency conehalea
by appealing to all classes to aid the efforts of the
Government.

NEWS FROM INDIA.
We have received the Bombay mails to date Saturday,
December 17th. The following heads of intelligence are

Ensign Gilbert, 2-60th Rifles, proceeds to England on
sick certificate. - The extraordinary disclosures made
before the court-martial, by which he was tried fur
insubordination are do doubt known to our military

favour. The decision of the court is not yet known.
Mr. J. Westland has been confirmed in his ap-
pointment as Under-Secretary to the Financial Depart-
ment.
The medical profession in India have been solicited to

in many instances being at the rate of 10 per cent. per
annum. •
