EVENING EDITION,

TN a MEETING or ASSEMBLY of: the MAYOR,
ALDERMEN, and LIVERYMEN of the several Companies
of the City of London, in Com-non Hall assembled, at the Guild-
hall of the said City, on Friday, the 24th day of June, 1870,
Resolved unanimously—That the vdrious Charters granted to
the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Commonalty of this City had in
view not merely the good government of London, but also the
promotion of the arts, trades, and avocations of civilised life,
now of as great importance as in former days. That the city
Livery Guilds, in revived and suitably adjusted activity, are ap-
propriate means to those ends. • •
Therefore, Mr. Buxton's Bills, as being destructive of the fran-
chises appertaining to these Livery Guilds,are calculated to dis-
courage and prevent the utilisation of those bodies for the im-
portant objects above mentioned, and this assembly considers
those Bills deserving its hearty condemnation. •
Resolved unanimously—That the Members for the City of Len-
don be requested to offer strenuous opposition to Mr. Buxton's
Bills as now before Parliament or to any scheme which would
deprive the Common Hall of . its powers, which have been con-
stantly exercised for the good of the nation.
Resolved--That the Resolutions passed this day be advertised
in the usual newspapers. WOODTHOEXE.

THE BEST and MOST NUTRITIOUS FOOD
for Infants, Children, and Invalids.

CHAPAIAN & CO'S ENTIRE WHEAT FLOUR
contains all the constituents of the grain in perfect purity,
and is perfectly easy of digestion.

CAPMAN & CO.'S ENTIRE WHEAT FLOUR
contains a larger percentage of phosphates (bone earth)
than any other food, and is therefore invaluable to Children
while Teething.

CHAPAIAN & CO.'S ENTIRE WHEAT FLOUR
promotes a vigorous and healthy growth of the bones and
teeth, and prevents premature decay.

CHAPMAN & CO.'S ENTIRE WHEAT FLOUR.
PROFESSOR ATTFIELD, Analyst to the Royal Pharma-
ceutical Society of Great Britain, reports as follows :--" Its rich-
ness in gluten, or flesh-forming material and phoshates, or bone
and teeth-forming substances, shows it to be a very valuable and
nutritious food, especially for children. It is incomparably
superior to arrowroot, corn-flour, and otherforms of starch, which
contribute but little to the growth or renewal of bone or muscle.

DROUGHT IN FRANCE.—In Nasbinals, a district
of France, where no rain has fallen for three months,
there is great distress from the drought. The cattle have
been attacked by an epidemic disease of the throat which
has caused great ravages among them. They are unable
to eat, and die of inanition. If the rain be much longer
delayed the mortality among the beasts will, it is feared,
become disastrous.
A. PROFESSIONAL MURDERER. —The Paris corres-
pondent of the Daily Telegraph, writing on Thursday,
says :—A fearful murder was committed last night in the
Rue Pigalle, a street very much affected by young ladies
of questionable morality.. One of these frail sisters was
heard groaning by 'the neighbours. They broke the door
open, and found her with her throat cut. The murderer
was still in the room, but jumped out at the window into
the street, and broke his thigh. It is supposed that he is
the man who murdered several of the Anonyms tribe two
or three years ago, but who had hitherto succeeded in
evading arrest.
ECONOMY.—We have gained money by the unjust
dismissal of some thousands of dockyard men, resulting
in their starvation, and in that of their families, but we
have lost £272,000, it is calculated, by the sale of Dept-
ford dockyard. Put one sum against the other, and what
have we realised that will go to the extent of calming
our consciences, as a nation, for giving way to the cruel
fit of parsimony upon the part of the Admiralty. Any
book-keeper will say we have lost about £272,000 by
the transaction; any gentleman, our honour.— Court
Journal.
COMMAND OF THE TROOPS IN IRELAND.—Lord
Strathnairn's term of office as Commander of the Forces
in Ireland will expire on the 30th inst., but his lordship
left Dublin on the 25th inst. for London. Sir William
Mansfield is not expected to enter upon the duties of his
command until the beginning of August next. Major'
General Sir Arthur Cunynghame, K.C.8., having pro-
ceeded on leave of absence, the command of the Dublin
division has devolved on 'Major-General Borton, C. 8.,
until his return.
TROOPS FOR IRELAND.—Nothing has been arranged
with regard to the regiments to be sent to Ireland during
the winter and autumn in relief of those corps which
embark for India ; but we understand that, should the
usual number, five, be required for the 'service, the five
will be the 2nd Battalion 6th Royals, at Newport ; 98th
Regiment, at Newcastle-on-Tyne ; 97th Regiment, at
Dover ; 34th Regiment, at Shorncliff ; and 2nd Battalion
sth Fusiliers, at Glasgow; the depots of the Ist Battalion
6th, 31st, 76th, 96th, and Ist Battalion sth, of course,
proceeding with them.—Army and Navy Gazette.
DEATH OF AN OFFICER OF THE FIRST FRENCH
REPUBLIC. —On Tuesday last General Viscount Lehardy,
a veteran of the first French Republic, died at Saint
Josse ten Noode. The general was in his 89th year, and
has served from 1798 to 1814 in nearly all the wars
which France, of which Belgium was at the time a part,
had waged with the Powers of Europe. In 1815 he was a
lieutenant-colonel of cavalry, and served in that capacity
at Waterloo in the Dutch Belgian army, being one of those
nearest to the Prince of Orange when his royal highness
was wounded. On the revolution of 1830 he resigned his
post as colonel commanding the staff, and was then ap-
pointed general, and placed in command of Antwerp, the
citadel of which city was then occupied by the Dutch.
At the close of the year he retired from the service, in
consequence of being arraigned for aiding in a popular
manifestation against certain tendencies to Orangeism
among those about the regent. One result of the trial
was to upset the Ministry. From 1849 to 1860 he re:Med
1 in the United States, and returned to his own country in
consequence of the blindness of one of his sons.
