The barometer has fallen slightly along the East
coast of England, in the west however a gradual rise is
reported. Temperature, which this morning was as high
as 59 degs. in London, is but little changed. The direc-
tion of the wind is northerly in England, and 'north-
easterly in Norway. The sky is still cloudy.

The angry controversialists whose eager disputes
about the theories of education are so seriously
interfering, with its practice, are admirably satirised in
this weak's Punch under the head of " obstructives." A.
group of clerical gentlemen stand wrangling in the school-
house doorway, while Mr. Punch, with a boy and girl on
either side, remonstrates with Bull A 1 :—" Yes, it's all
very well to say 'go to school ! ' How are they to go to
school with those people quarrelling in the doorway?
Why don't you make 'em move on? '

The memorial stone of a new infirmary was laid on
Tuesday at Kidderminster, by the Countess of Dudley.
The day was observed as a holiday in the town, all
the factories and mills being stopped, and all the shops
shut, at least from eleven o'clock in the forenoon. The
plans of the building are by Mr. Bland, of Birmingham,
and the total cost will be about £9,000. A vast concourse
of people attended the proceedings, and addresses were
delivered by the Earl of Dudley, Lord Lyttelton, the
Bishop of Worcester, Mr. Thomas Lea, M.P., and the
leading public men in the borough.
About 400 clerical and lay delegates assembled
on Tuesday at a Church conference at Birmingham. The
reading of a paper 133 r the Dean of Lichfield on Heresies
in the Church," led to some remarks upon the reception
given to Baboo Keshub Chunder Sen by leaders among
the evangelical Nonconformists.. His warm reception
was criticised, and some of the doctrines propounded by
Chunder Sen were denounced as, parts of a system
"which takes away entirely the glory from the Gospel."
The proposed revision of the Bible was defended by the
Rev. F. W. Wilkinson, and opposed by the Rev. J. C.
Ryle because it was not asked for by the public, and be-
cause he feared it would " upset the belief and trouble
the minds "of millions of Christians. He argued that
if anything wanted revision it was the Prayer Book.
During the discussion of this question, the evangelical
brethren became so disorderly that it was suggrsted
I that prayer should be offered for the purpose of restoring
harmony.

TIIE FRENCH PRESS ON LORD
CLARENDON.
The French papers refer with regret to the death of
Lord Clarendon :
The following is from the Patric :—Lord Clarendon was
one of those diplomatists who place great questions of
right and justice above possible international antipathies
and mere party ideas. Towards France he has always
..shewed himself just and sympathetic, and on this ground
we join our neighbours in regretting his death.
The Temps says that Lord Clarendon represented Great
-Britain at the Paris Congress, and was the most distin-
guished and complete type of English diplomacy.
The Coristitutionnel declares that England has lost in him
one of her most esteemed and honoured statesmen.
The Liberte says that Lord. Clarendon's existence was
too intimately connected with Contemporaneous history
-for it to be summed up in a.few hasty lines. In the exer-
cise of his high functions he displayed a rare political
sagacity, while he shewed a total forgetfulness of self, and
an exceptional solicitude for all who were in distress.

WIND-UP OF THE FASHIONABLE SEASON

IN PARIS.
The fashionable season of Paris is rapidly winding-up,
and the last balls the last race, and final fetes are coming
off in bewildering succession. The "petits cundis "of
the Empress, which is the name of four very select balls
given annually at the Tuileries by her Majesty, arid these
usarliy ic ke-plate in April, have thiS y.ai• been diiferred,
by various circumstances, to the present moment, and the
second of the series was given on Monday. These pretty
assemblages will conclude the festivities of the Palace for
the year. In the beau monde the last ball of the season
occurred on Friday at the Countess de Gabriac's, and
the fact that it was the last rallied an immense con-
course of the indomitables whose thirst for gaiety seems
unabated after the unbroken round of entertainments
which have filled up the last five months. The season
begins here with the new year and terminates with the
great racing event of the year, called the Grand Prix de
Paris, which comes off on the Bois de Boulogne the first
Sunday in June. This is the signal for a general disper-
sion of the world of fashion which is scattered forthwith
in all imaginable directions. Country houses and water-
ing places absorb.the greatest number. The most attrac-
tive feature in Paris just now especially for strangers, is
the promenade in the Bois de Boulogne, which in point of
foliage surpasses our celebrated Central Park in New
York, but in other respects is inferior. For instance, the
rock scenery h ere is all artificial, while with us it is nature's
own beautiful handiwork. From four o'clock to seven
o'clock p.m. every day at this.fine season the display of
equipages in this favourite resort is something almost
indescribable for numbers, splendour, and taste. There
is nothing like it elsewhere in the world. In London
you see as many fine horses—for the English breed is not
yet surpassed in France—but here the carriages are far
more graceful in form and more elegant in, decoration.
Besides, the Parisians are fonder of display than the
sober-minded English, and hence the harness used for
parade in the Park is richer in ornament, while footmen,
coachmen, and postillions are got tip in a style that
may be called gorgeous. But showy and
brilliant as are the equipages, they do not constitute
all the attractions of a drive in the Bois. The toilets
of the ladies, resplendent in all the colours of the
rainbow, , in homage to the advent of summer,
and distinguished by that rare fancy and taste which
makes Paris the throne of•fashion, to say nothing of
the easy manner and graceful bearing of the ladies
themselves—this is a phase of the sight to be seen
in the " Central Park " Of Paris that is absolutely unap-
proachable in the wide world. Most of the carriages are
drawn by two horses. Many pretty little " Victorisa "
are content with one • but certain well-known lovers of
'horseflesh appear daily with the pick of their stables in a
carriage and four. Some are driven before a London
" drag," but others are managed by two postillions it la
Daumont. Of the latter class the best turnout is decidedly
that of an American, well known on both sides of the
water—Lewis Cass, son of the late Secretary of State.
There is still another salient feature of 'these alluring
gatherings in the " Bois," and that is the number of cele-
brities, not only of Paris, but of all Europe. The promi-
nent member of the diplomatic body; the leaders of
fashion widely known ; foreign dignitaries and princes of
European fame,
not to speak of those glittering and ephe-
meral creatures, the Cynthias of the hour, who in Paris
obtain notoriety not only by their splendour of toilet and
equipage, but by elegance of manners and good taste in
conception.—New York Herald, June 16.

THE TRAINING SHIP WARSPITE.—On Tuesday
the Earl of Romney presided at the annual inspection of
the Marine Society's boys on board the training-ship
Warspite, off Woolwich. Up to the close of last year
the number of lads who had been provided for through
the agency of this organisation was 56,276.
A Vienna telegram of the Eastern Budget says
that the majority of the candidates who have been elected
for the Diets are strongly in favour of the maintenance of
the constitutional system, and inclined to adopt a conci-
liatory policy towards the nationalities.
The necessity for a new system of education was
strikingly illustrated in the course of a case heard in the
Salford Police Court the other day. It was found that
two girls, 13 and 14 years of age, who had been grossly
assaulted, could not be allowed to give evidence for the
prosecution, because they were utterly ignorant of the
meaning of right or wrong, did not know what lying was,
and did not know what would happen to them if they did
not speak the truth. Owing to this lamentable state of
things the prisoner had to be discharged, as there was
not sufficient collateral evidence to warrant a convic-
tion.

THE ANTECEDENTS OF THE BRIXTON BABY
FARMERS.—Some important information was' received
yesterday fin reference to the antecedents of Margaret
Waters and Sarah Ellis, the two women now in custody
charged with neglecting to provide proper food and
nourishment for several infants placed under their'
care, whereby the children's lives were endangered.
Their maiden name is said to be Forth, and their friends
are said to be in good circumstances, residing at Bingley,
near Leeds, Yorkshire. About the 16th of February the
two prisoners lived at No. 15, Bournemouth-road,
Peckham. They suddenly left, leaving the rent
unpaid, and tradesmen's bills unsettled. For four
days they lived at 1, Boston-cottages, John-street, South-
ampton-street, Camberwell, and then suddenly left. Next,
in a house close by Clapham Junction, where they only
remained a week ; then in Lockington-road, York-road,
Battersea. From there they went to No. 4, Frederick;
terrace, where their " baby-farm " was discovered.

THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY COMPANY.—Vice-
Chancellor James had before him yesterday the case of
Salisbury v. the Metropolitan Railway Company, in
which the plaintiff, a shareholder, sought to restrain the
directors from paying dividends out of capital, and to
compel them to repay the amount alleged to have been
illegally taken for the purpose of paying past dividends.
The Vice-Chancellor said it appeared to him that the
plaintiff was entitled to a decree with costs. He con-
sidered this to be a mere fictitious mode of estimating the
value of the property, and that the increased estimate
never ought to have been inserted in the accounts. His
Honour said he thought it a direct, plain, and wilful
violation of the Act of Parliament ' • and there would
be declarations to the effect that the dividends had been
improperly paid, and an order that the balance so erro-
neously distributed should be made good personally by
the directors (except the secretary), with 4 per cent. in-
terest ; without prejudice to their right to recover the
amount over from the company, and the cost of the suit.
He did not consider an injunction necessary.
MOBBING THE MIRACLE WORHER.—Yesterday
morning, at half-past nine, an immense crowd assembled
in front of Dr. Burn's Chapel in New Church-street, the
scene of the disturbance caused by Dr. Newton and his
" miracles " on the preceding day. Handbills were cir-
culated amongst the people denouncing Dr. Newton as
an " impudent charlatan, who had been ridiculed out
of his own country," and exhorting the people not to
allow their afflicted friends to be tortured by an impostor,
and not to assist in desecrating the house of 4 God by
taking part in any of the " numbo jumbo antics" played
in it by the doctor. Some half-dozen cabs and carts
arrived with patients, and a considerable number of per-
sons, more or less crippled, were conducted into the chapel
by their friends. Comparatively few spectators were
admitted during the service, and when Dr. Newton left
the chapel he had to slip out by a back way, and jump
into a cab. He was, however, discovered by the mob,
and a cry was made to turn the cab over. Had it aot been
for the exertions of a sergeant of police and two con-
stables, it would have gone hard with the " miracle
worker," who, however, maraged, with their aid, even-
tually-to make his escape.
NAZARETH lioUsx.-- Yesterday a meeting was
held at Nazareth House, Hammersmith, in favour of such
an alteration of the law of the rating of charities as would
ensure the exemption of this and similar charitable insti-
tutions. The chair was taken by his Grace the Duke of
Norfolk, and there was a large attendance of noblemen
and gentlemen, including Earl of Granard, Bishop
Morris, Monsignor Capel, Earl of Portarling-ton, Lord '
Clifford, Lord George Lennox, Sir Robert Gerrard.
Sir Charles Clifford, Rev. Derby Read, M.A.,
Rev. T. Graham, Rev. M. O'Keeffe, Rev. C. Cadogan,
Colonel Toley, Dr. O'Connor, Major Trevor,
&c. A motionwn was made by Sir Robert Gerard, that the
meeting had heard with regret of the steps taken by the
local authorities, and that a change in the law ought to
be made. Monsignor Capel seconded the motion, and
