THE ILLUSTRATED NATURAL HISTORY
of BRITISH MOTHS. By Edward Newman, F.Z.S.
Giving a full description of the perfect insect from nature ; also a
description of the Caterpillar, Chrysalis, Food Plant, Time of
Appearance, and Localities where found. Each moth is drawn from
nature by George Willis, and engraved in his best style by John
Kerchner. The figures are life-size of every species ; and if var;cties
require it, three, four, five, and even six figures are given. The work
Es complete in thirty-one monthly numbers, at ed. each. The work is
also issued in quarterly parts, in covers, at Is. 6d. each part. Part X.

"We congratulate British entomologists on the completion and
publication of this magnificent work."—Field.
" Both to the beginner and the proficient in that study this work
will be invaluable.' Telegraph.
"It is illustrated with life-size figures from nature of each species,
and of the more striking varieties, and it possesses great advantages
over all similar works, inasmuch as the caterpillar of each moth,
with his habits and season, is described. This, to collectors, will be
sn immense boon, and by its means they will be enabled to obtain
many rare specimens."—Standard.

"Ko3 coiniletion of Mr. Newman' work on the British Moths is a
benefit to entomologists of all classes. It is at once a text-book by a
high authority, most valuable for reference, and a handsome, taste-
fully got-up volume, which will be an ornament to any library or
drawing-room table. It embodies the results of many years'
earnest and intelligent work by one whose reputation as an ento-
mologist deservedly stands high. . . We notice also with
satisfaction that Mr. Newman's descriptions, whilst thoroughly
scientific and minute, are given in plain and unaffected English.
With the help of these and the very excellent woodcuts, even a
very young collector may with ease identify any moth he may cap-
ture. The figures are so well drawn that there is no need of colour
to render them life-like. . . . . We unhesitatingly commend
this volume to our readers. We regard it as a very useful addition to
our library." Land and Waler, Oct. 9.

THE ALBERT INSURANCE COMPANY.—In Vice-Chancellor
James's Court on Saturday, a case in which the Albert
Life Assurance Company was concerned was set down
for hearing, but it was stated by counsel that there
was every reason to believe that this case, as well as
others, would be settled, there being a feeling on the part
of all the litigants to discontinue further law proceedings,
in order to prevent the utter ruin of the shareholders.'
Under these circumstances the case in question was
ordered to stand over.
A DA; fnEDLY MODEL COMPANY.—In the court of
Vice-Chancellor James a shareholders' petition was pre-
sented' for the compulsory winding-up of a concern bear-
ing the title of the Fortune Copper Mining Company of
Australia. The company was formed with a capital of
£40,000 for the purpose of purchasing land and carrying on
a copper mining business in West Australia. A con-
siderable number of shares were taken up, but it was
eventually discovered by the petitioners that all the paid-
up capital had been spent, that the business had alto-

en
Tnnons' STRIKE.—Two journeymen tailors,
named Flynn and Macarthy, have been charged, at
Marlborough-street, • with conspiring; and also with
assaulting a tailoress, named Marion Davis. The facts
of the ease have been already before the public, and it.
Iviil.-irt remembered that it took its origin in the
tailors' strike at Cork. The prosecution efpr-• - • -
lingness that the prisoners Should be released on their
own recognisances. The magistrate said they were
very leniently dealt with, though they were
not the originators of the illegal movement.
If the prosecution were severely 'pressed, the pri-
soners might depend upon it they would meet with little.
mercy. They were then released, after being bound over.

LARKING BY A LADY.—A stylishly dressed female, who
gave the name and address of Alice Hamilton, Austin
House, Portland-place, Regent's-park, was charged before
Mr. Benson, at the Marlborough-street Police Court,
with wilfully breaking a carriage window, the property of
Mr. Henry Calls, a jobmaster. From the evidence of Mr.
M. Wilson, coachman to Mr. Cates, it appeared that he
was waiting in Regent-street, with a landau for some persons
he had taken to a ball at Willis's Rooms, when the pri-
soner came up and said, " I am in here," and pulled the
door violently open, breaking the glass and also injuring
the sash. The prisoner said she was merely having a
lark. She caught hold of the door, gave- a pull, and down
it came. Mr. Benson fined the lady ss.
EMIGRANT CHILDREN.—A curious scene took place at
Worship-street Police-court, when ten poor children were
examined prior to being sent out as emigrants. Under
the Act of Parliament each child under the age
of sixteen must be examined by a justice of the
peace as to his or her willingness to emigrate.
The children in this case were either orphans or deserted
by their parents, all of them being girls under the age of
fourteen. They had been found wandering about without
home or visible means of support, and it was now proposed
to send them out to Canada, under the care of Afiss Rye.
Provision was made for them in that country. Mr.
Ellison put the question to each child, asking her if
she was willing to go to Canada. The answers being
uniformly in the affirmative, Mr. Ellison signed the neces-
sary papers, and in a few days the children will be on their
way to .America.
SOFTLY GETTING INTO TROUBLE. —At the Marylebone
Police-court, Thomas Softly, aged 24, a horse-keeper h, was
our
charged with assaulting a policeman. At an early
in the morning the prisoner was with some women in the
Adelaide-road, Hampstead, shouting and making use of
very bad language. The policeman told him to be quiet,
and Softly then struck him a violent blow on the right
eye. Another man also struck him. The prisoner then
knocked Mtn down, and whilst on the ground kicked him
several times on the head, causing blood to flow from
his nose and mouth.

- Mr. Mansfield said it was a ruffianly and cowardly
assault, and he would use the full powers vested in
him under the Habitual Criminals- Act. He sentenced
the prisoner to six months' hard labour.
DRIVING TOO FAST.—At the Westminster police-court
William Walker, a cab driver, was charged with being
drunk, doing wilful damage, and furiously driving. The
driver of a van belonging to Mr. Morgan, egg merchant,
of Grosvenor-row, Pimlico, said at has

and ran into him. He was thrown off the van and hurt
very much. Mr Morgan said then damagee

his pace. He was going at the rate of fifteen miles an
hour and was drunk. Prisoner's master said he had been
a cabman twenty years, and was well conducted. With
regard to the pace of the horse, it was fourteen years old
and three parts worn out, and could not do more than

SHAMEFUL ROBBERY OF A SEAMAN.—Patrick Kelly and
Michael Macarthy, two well-known and desperate
on Saturday, with stealing £lB from the person
on thel6th of August,
thieves, were charged, at the Thames Police Court,
of John Brooks, a seaman,
1869. It appeared from the evidence that Brooks
was paid off at Green's Sailors' Home, Poplar, on
the day named. He received notes and gold. He com-
menced drinking very freely when he received his money,
Of the Home. The prisoner's followed him into the house.

The landlord refused to serve either of the prisoners, and
turned them out, and particularly cautioned the sailor
against the prisoners. The prosecutor had not proceeded
many yards from the public-house before the prisoner
accosted him and hustled him into a back street. Kelly
pinioned him from behind, while Macarthy rifled his

RUSSIA IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN.
The Russian Government is about to introduce what it
calls "great improvements" in the administration of the
Russian possessions in the Pacific Ocean, among which the
Sakhaline Island occupies a most important place, being
the outpost of the Russian possessions at the
farthest point of the East. In fact, Russia
already holds the whole extent of that island,
the southern portion of which contains, however, a
few Japanese colonies, which, the Russian Government
asserts, have given to the Japanese Government a plea to
try and extend its domination beyond the limit fixed by
the Simoda Treaty. The principal resources of that
island are the immense coal fields which the Russian Go-
vernment intends to be worked by penitentiary colonies,
Go-
watch over by troops in sufficient number to oppose,
meantime, the encroachments of the Japanese. Mean-
while, new coal fields are daily being discovered, and the
Russian government seems to be in fear. that their
simultaneous working by Russians and Japanese should
bring about collisions—the consequences of which canuot
be foreseen, because the Japanese are evidently sup-
ported in their encroachments "by influences"
one is surprised to see acting against Russia in
those remote countries, where any European
power, Russia excepted, cannot have any interest ;
therefore, the "influences " above alluded to are moved
only by a jealous policy that plays blindly with the real
wants of nations. Therefore, the Russian Government
has resolved to avoid any complication, to occupy the
whole of the island, and to take hold of it in such a way
as to be able to vindicate Russia's right even by force.
In that view regular relations are to be established with
the continent of those regions, and the military forces
established in the Sakhaline Island are to be adequately
reinforced.

COLUMBUS AS A SAINT.—The beatification of
Christopher Columbus, of which there was some talk a
few years ago, seems now about to be carried through in
good earnest. Pius IX., it is known, is rather partial to
ceremonies of this kind, and the most ingenious advocatus
diaboli can say very little against the Catholic orthodoxy
and piety of the discoverer of America. Indeed,
Columbus was not only a zealous son of the church, but
he devoted his leisure moments to the composition of all
sorts of mystical and ascetic tracts. A few miracles are
generally considered de riqueur in these cases, but no
doubt they will in due time be forthcoming if required.—
Boston Advertiser.
IRRECONCILABLE.—The irreconeilable spirit which
made Red Republicans in Paris, Fenions in England and
America, and revolutionists in Italy, appears to be
chronic in its outbursts. It has passed from one country
to another till it is now reported by cable to be disturb-
ing the Government of Victor Emmanuel. Whatever be
the varieties of motive which urge these various classes of
belligerents, it is noticeable that they have a fatal agree-
ment in choosing the wrong time for their demonstrations.
If anything will retard the ultimate acquisition of Rome
by the Italian Kingdom, and the consummation of the
dreams of her Republicans, it is an attack upon the
Government which is rapidly repairing her shattered
finances and steadily extending the bases of her liberties.
Such an outburst can only strengthen the military power,
of which her King is all too fond, and draw tighter the
cordon of foreign bayonets which protects Rome.—New
York Times.
