WESTMINSTER.

A respectable-looking poor woman, who stated
that she had a large family, solicited the ma-
gistrate's assistance and advice under the following
circumstances :—Applicant said that in 1868 her
husband borrowed a small sum of money from a
loan society, held at the Commercial, in the King's-
road, Chelsea. She had paid the loan as well as she
was able, and had returned more than she had re-
ceived, and now an application was made in writing
for a sum of money which she was perfectly unable
to pay. Her husband's brother had been the secu-
rity, and the application spoken of was made to him.
Mr. Arnold—You say the amount of the loan was
£2. How much have you paid ? Applicant—l had
£2, and I have paid altogether £2 45., but that is not
enough. I was to pay £2 10s. for the £2, so that
I owe 65., and that's all. Mr. Arnold—What is, the
sum now demanded of you? Applicant-195., to
be paid between this and the 6th of May. When I
have sent sums of money less have been put down.
Mr. Arnold—That, I suppose, was claimed for fines
for non-payment, as I see a rule respecting them.
I cannot tell you what to do. You had better speak
to a solicitor on the subject. •

MR. LOWE AND INDUSTRIAL SOCIETIES.

A deputation from the conference of Indus-
trial Societies has waited on Mr. Lowe.
It represented 107 societies, comprising 115,200
members, and doing business to the extent of
five millions a year. The deputation stated that
the abolition of the Registrarship would greatly
injure the societies. It also urged that faci-
lities for buying land and building cot-
tages out of the funds intended to be given
by the Industrial Societies Acts of 1868, should
be put beyond doubt. The Chancellor of the
Exchequer, in reply to these and various other repre-
sentations, said he thought it would be desirable
that a bill should be prepared analagous to
the Joint Stock Companies' Act containing a sche-
dule with a carefully-drawn up set of rules. With
respect to the bill he could not say when it would
come on, but he should be prepared to consent to a
committee to consider the whole subj ect.

EXPENDITURE ON FORTIFICATIONS.

An account of expenditure under the
several fortifications Acts of 1862-3 chews

£7,460,000, and the expenditure of prior years to
the passing of the Act £879,211 7s, sd. The expen-
diture in 1862-3 was £1,163,146 2s. 2d., showing the
total amount of expenditure to have been £22,042,357
9s. 7d.

DEATH OF MR. R. TATTERSALL.

Mr. Richard Tattersall, the senior partner in the
firm of Messrs. Tattersall, of Knightsbridge, died at
his residence, Beaufort-gardens, yesterday morning.
The deceased gentleman had been in failing
health for some time past, and the last sale at which
he officiated was at Doncaster four years ago. Since
that time Mr. Edmund Tattersall has been the work-
ing partner, but has latterly been assisted by Mr.
Payne, who now shares with him the responsibilities
of the firm.

THE FUTURE KING OF SPAIN.

The Post observes that if we examine the list of possible
candidates from whom the Spaniards have to select their
King, we find them reduced to three—Marshal Espartero,
the Prince of the Asturias, and the Duke de Montpensier.
Other candidates have been suggested, but can scarcely
be considered as seriously put forward. Espartero's
elevation to the Throne would be a measure of a scarcely
more permanent character than the Regency ; and as the
Marshal has no son to succeed him, the same dilemma in
which the Spanish nation now finds itself could
not fail, in the natural course of things, to
occur again very shortly. The candidature of
the Prince of the Asturias presents an objection
quite apart from the youth of the candidate. It would
only be the Restoration under another name. The prince
may be removed from the influence of his mother and
placed under guardians, to be educated in Liberal and
Constitutional principles, but it is not likely that the in-
fluence of Queen Isabella could be entirely excluded. Be-
sides, his election, although it might certainly be effected
by the favour of Prim, would prove anything but accept-
able to a large body of the people of Spain. The Repub-
licans would be exasperated, and a section of the Progres-
sists would be discontented, although they might possibly
defer to the wishes of their Chief. The Unionists are,
to a man, Montpensierists. On the whole, therefore,
the election of the Duke de Montpensier may be thought
to be the most rational and natural solution of the ques-
tion. The Duke is a Spaniard, if not by birth, by choice
and in feeling, and is popular both with the army and
with a large section of the nation. He is of mature age,
and is thoroughly acquainted with the customs and feel-
ings of the people of his adopted country ; and he has
given proofs of being possessed of qualities which would
go for to endear a sovereign to the Spaniards.

THE GREEK MASSACRE.

The Telegraph declares that the whole truth must be
elicited with respect to the Greek massacre. It is not
merely a question of satisfying legal forms, of hanging
the villains already caught, and chasing the others until
every one is captured or knocked upon the head. This
terrible tragedy, enacted upon the very soil which makes
Greece proud and historical, is a disgrace to her' as well
as a scandal to Europe ; and the time has come, with so
bloody a business, when the whole truth must be
known about this hideous institution of brigandage.
And assuredly the Go veriunent which has salved
its ridiculous amour propre with the blood of English-
men can scarcely be trusted to make such an investiga-
tion alone. It must be so conducted that witnesses will
not be afraid to tell all they know ; nor can the investiga-
tion be complete or satisfactory, unless the outraged jus-
tice of England and of the Protecting Powers be present
at the scene, side by side with that degraded Themis who
is native to the Attic soil. The dead are past help ; and
there is no question of money, for these villains never
lived to touch it. What is demanded is, first, that the
facts of the crime should be thoroughly, exposed ; next,
that the infamous band should not be left unpunished ;
and, finally, that the system of brigandage thus
bloodily revived shall be henceforward extirpated
to its deepest tap-roots by whatever agency is
necessary. It is too monstrous that the loveliest and
most memorable spas of earth should be made a place of
robbery and murder, and that a Government which exists
by the force of foreign sanction and support alone, should
repay the Powers which sustain it by making them vir-
tually responsible for the criminal results of its own im-
potence or corruption. We have still to receive details
which must harrow every heart and awake afresh in the
minds of the relatives of the dead the anguish of the first
tidings. There need be no fear that public feel-
ing will be lulled to any indifference when the story thus
grows more deadly and dark in every succeeding chapter
of the official record.

SUICIDE IN A WORKHOUSE.— A. man named
Driscoll committed suicide in a singularly horrible manner
in a Southwark Workhouse. He was discovered lying
on a bed in the men's ward, with the lower part of his
stomach cut across, and hacked open in a frightful
manner. The unhappy man had first thrust a knife into
his stomach, and then dragged the weapon across from
one side to the other. Every effort was made to save the
poor man's life, but he sunk from exhaustion and expired.

PAINLESS and PR ACITCAL DENTISTRY,
by Mr. B. L. 110SELY, the Dentist by special appointment,
312, REGENT-STREET, exactly opposite the Royal Polytechnic, and
23, MoOnGATe-STREET, CITY. Established 1820. This, the most
perfected system of painless dentistry, originated and invented by
Mr. B. L. Mosely, is recommended by the Hospitals and adopted
by the profession as one of the greatest improvements of the age
for the alleviation of pain and restoration of the natural functions,
can solely be obtained in such perfected success (the result of
forty years' practical experience) at his only residences, as above.
The superlative excellence of this system is perfect immunity from
pain, no operations, stumps and decayed teeth rendered useful,
loose teeth and te .cler gums protected. Qualities: These teeth
never change colour or decay—in flt unerring ease and comfort
unsurpassed —detection impossible—the facial anatomy faithfully
studied and youthful appearance restored—mastication and arti-
culation guaranteed. The " Times" of March 6 says :—" So good
an imitation becomes the next best thing to the original." Teeth
from 55.; sets, 3 to 30 guineas. Consultation free.—Only addresses,
312, Regent-street, exactly facing the Royal Polytechnic; and 23,
Moorgate-street, E. C., opposite the Star Insurance Office.

romovea. the nea rnantom gas risen again. r 3
electors will now have the Socialist Republic,
ruled by assassins, and not the prerogatives
of the Emperor, in their primary consideration.
Before they give heed to the question whether this
or that part of the Constitution is reconcilable with
strict parliamentary government, they will vote
to preserve their goods from the universal division
with which they are threatened. The Adminis-
tration will do its best to encourage this
feeling of interested loyalty. The event, indeed, is
such a good thing for M. 011ivier that it will be a
task of the utmost difficulty to persuade the Parisians
that the plot is genuine. The red ghost has done
duty often enough on occasions when the spectre had
to be conjured up ; now it is ready to
hand. The Imperial printers and writers will be
got to work. In the course of the week we may ex-
pect a fine collection of the neatest Irreconcilable
speeches, winding up with this plot, to make its
appearance and be scattered far and wide through
France. Beyond doubt the message will do its work
well; but if the Republicans are defeated they cannot
complain. They have fought a disgraceful battle,
and their own manoeuvres have turned to their
confusion.

IRISH CHURCH ACT.

Lord JOHN MANNERS asked the Chief Secretary for
Ireland, when he proposed to introduce the measure,
promised on the 23rd of AprillB69, for amending the pro-
visions of the Irish Church Act of last session, which
relate to the holding of land by the Church of Ireland
when disestablished.

Mr. C. FORTESCUE said the subject was one of import-
ance and difficulty, but not of urgency. It was impossible
for him to say, in the present state of public affairs,
whether the bill could be considered in the present session.

AN IMPUDENT LETTER WRITER.

correspondent, whose "able contributions" the
Morning Advertiser seems ridiculously over anxious
to take credit for as having " often ap-
peared in our columns," has forwarded to that
journal the copy of a letter which he has addressed
to the Prime Minister, and which is as offensive in
tone as it is impertinent in diction. The
subject chosen for this piece of upstartism
is the alleged position of Mr. Gladstone in reference
to Mr. Newdegate's motion. The writer charges the
Prime Minister with having too slightingly disregarded
the motion in question and left to the Solicitor-General
tho presumed easy task of defeating it. Here is a
specimen of his style. " You ought," he says,
" during the recess to have decided on your course,
and directed the Home Secretary at once to say that
early on Monday you would announce the - views
of the Government. Instead of which he
has left a universal impression that the
Government are afraid to deal boldly with the ques-
tion. In vain : front the difficulty you must, and
do it at once with dignity and decision." The
Morning Advertiser and its correspondent evi-
dently look upon the Prime Minister as a thing
only for political "laws to peck at." The remarkable
coolness with which the Advertiser inserts this
hectoring epistle, as if it finally polished off the
Premier and all the world as well, is not the least
notable feature of the procedure.

THE COTTON TRADE.

The Operative Spinners and Minders Association of
Preston have just issued to the Master Cotton Spinners
a lengthy memorial. This document, after alluding to
the universal depression of trade in 1867-9,refers to the
amicable arrangement in the spring of last year for
a reduction of 5 per cent. in the spinning branch, and
to a subsequent compulsory reduction of 5 pei
cent. It concludes by expressing the belief of the
memorialists that now, with an improved trade, and
an increased margin of profit, the masters are in a
position to give them an advance of wages, or at least
to restore them to the position they formerly occu-
pied, which was on a level with that of Blackburn
and other districts in East Lancashire..

LADYEnTisENENT.J—Henceforth no one will doubt the valuable
properties of Du Barry's health-restoring Revalenta Arabica
invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings
it has already received from Invalids whos position had been
deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope,
whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of
unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the "Gazette du
Midi," July 25th :—" Rome, July 21, 1866. - The health of the Holy
Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other reme-
dies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta
Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal.
It has produced a surprisingly beneficial effect on his health, and
his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly." We
extract a few out of more than 68,000 cures :—Cure No. 58,216, of
the Marchioness de Brehan, of seven years' liver complaint,
wasting away, debility, nervousness, with a nervous palpitation,
all over, bad digesti9n, constant sleeplessness, and the most in
tolerable nervous agitation. Cure No. 1,771: Lord Stuart de
Docies, Lord-Lieutenant of Waterford, of many years' dyspepsia,
No. 49,832: " Fifty years' indescribable agony from dyspepsia;
nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency, spasms,
sickness, and vomiting.—Maria Joly." Cure No. 46,270: Mr.
James Roberts, of Frimley, Surrey, of 30 years' diseased lungs,
spitting of blood, liver derangement, and partial deafness. Im•
portant Caution—Beware of the many unsavoury and more than
sloppy imitations to which, without authority, Baron Liebig's
name is most audaciously attached.

MEND YOUR WAYS.

An abstract of replies, received in answer to
an inquiry made by the Secretary of State,
shews a very general acknowledgment that our roads
have been improved under the working of the new
system introduced by the Highway Acts of 1862 and
1864. The name of the suggested alterations is
legion, but the following are among the principal:—
Making up the accounts to the 25th of March, in-
stead of to the 31st of December ; greater power to
compel owners to trim, cleanse, remove, &c.; repair-
ing highways out of the common fund; a
less expensive process for stopping . up use-
less highways; making the acts compul-
sory ; greater facilities for borrowing money;
appointment of more surveyors; greater power to
waywardens; abolishment of all turnpikes; and repair
of the roads out of the common fund or county rate.
Six boards also suggest that the districts should be
co-extensive with the poor law union.

MONETARY REPORT S-YESTERDAY•

Tins being one of the half-yearly days for the closing tY,
the transfer-books of the Bank, the Stock Exchange lag
been closed to-day.
There has been a fair supply of capital in the discount
market. The near approach of the 4th of the month has
stimulated the demand for accommodation. At the same
time, however, three months' paper has continued to he
negotiated at 24 to 3 per cent.
Considerable firmness has been noticed in the grain
trade to-day. The supplies of wheat have been only
moderate, and with a healthy inquiry, prices have risen
to •the extent of is. to 2s. per quarter. Spring corn
has commanded extreme quotations, the demand 'vim"'
firm.

The failure is announced of Mr. W. Hargraves, of
Shanghai, with liabilities roughly estimated at about
£lOO,OOO, a considerable portion of 'which will f,
on Manchester, which creditors, however, are believed `I"
be nearly covered.
There have been no bullion operations at the Bank to'
day.
The Pera, from Alexandria, has brought £5O, aild
the Hermania, from New York, £2,000.
At a meeting of the Telegraph to India CeinP3.lll
it was announced that the British Indian Exteusl4
:0
Company had arranged to take over the undertaking,
cost of £37,500 in paid-up shares.

THE INDIAN BUDGET.

The Anglo-Indian press is very severe in its stric-
tures on Sir Richard Temple's budget. The Times of
_lndia, published in Bombay, says that " its only
features are continuous deficit, and an Income-
tax of 3, per cent.," and believes that
•on investigation Sir R. Temple's supposed im-
pecuosity would prove to be due to the
IEI4 of ordinary business skill in manipulating the
funds which the State has already within its reach.
The Calcutta Englishman is even more bitter. A
more unsatisfactory Budget could scarcely,
it says, be imagined. It was not merely
the announcement of a deficit which made
such a painful impression on his indignant audience.
Could they have been certain drat the worst was
known, men might be content to hold their peace,
but by his own confession Sir Richard has obtained
his present results by an " adjustment" of accounts,
a phrase that may cover any amount--of.-financial
jugglery am', flcus-pocus. His chief care has been
to make things pleasant, and clever accountants have
been employed to draw up a balance-sheet as though
it were a brief.

ARMY PROMOTION.

Colonel KINGSCOTE asked the Secretary of State for
War upon what principle and for what reason the rule
governing the promotion in other regiments, both of
cavalry and infantry, was not allowed to apply equally to
the Coldstream and Fusilier Guards.

Mr. CARDWELL said the matter, as regarded the Cold-
stream and Fusilier Guards, involved the question of.
over-regulation price, which would no doubt be considered
by the Royal Commission, pending which he could not
consider any representations on the subject.

to this, the average number of attendance of the destitute sick has
for a considerable period averaged between 3,000 and 4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent,

Ireland, &c.

CARDINAL CULLEN.

Cardinal Cullen has left Dublin for Rome, and
behind him, as usual, remains a pastoral. In this
document he urges opposition to Mr. Newdegate's
motion. Fenianism and Freemasonry, like Papacy,
Prelacy, and Peveril of the Peak are denounced
together. On the other hand, Cardinal Cullen is
very strong in his support of the Land Bill.
i‘ The statesmen who have displayed so much
zeal for the public good and the welfare of
Ireland, by undertaking a work of such magnitude,
may be defeated by their opponents, but they deserve
our warmest thanks and the lasting gratitude of the
country. In my opinion it would be fatal policy to
do anything to weaken their hands or assist in
driving them from power. " There seems very little
fear of the Catholic clergy adopting this fatal.
policy. Their attachment to the Liberal can-
didates in Ireland is most unswerving. Ordinarily
the opinions of a Catholic are more likely to be Con-
servative than Liberal. In all countries where
Catholics have the ascendancy they are Conservative.
But in Britain the Catholic faith can gain by the
principle of religious liberty, and, therefore, it is
upheld.
THE RITUALISTS AND BISHOP JACKSON.

Some correspondent of a Church paper expressed
his belief that the sudden illness of the Bishop of
London, on the day appointed for the interview with
the leading Ritualist clergy of his diocese, was a
"judgment" for his interference with their
ultra practices. Judgment or none, the meeting
came off on Saturday. The Standard says,
it is understood that the various matters in dispute
were fully discussed, and the clergy expressed their
views as completely and as frankly as the Bishop ex-
plained his. Nothing whatever was definitely settled,
but the clergy nresent dAeliTyla. to make any fur-
