Copies of the New Nation, the organ of the Red

confirm the telegraphic accounts as regards their

view of ultimate annexation to the United States.
The New Nation says in reference to Canada :--
"We form a separate colony. People with diffe-
rent interest, and necessities have nothing in com-
mon with that people or its Government."

The editor adds his opinion that the formation
of a railroad communication with Canada would be
almost irnpracticab!e, since capitalists would not
undertake it. in conclusion, he quotes Colyer's
alleged apocryphal memorial from British Columbia
to President Grant as also applicable to the Red

VISIBLE UNITY.

Surely Tuesday must have been a happy day for
Dean Stanley. On that day he, who has so earnestly
striven for the unity of the churches, entertained at
Westminster the Archbishop of Syra and Tenos, and
his suite. Three English bishops were present—
London, Rochester, and Ely, and several gentlemen
of note. In proposing the health of his guest, the
Dean made a thoroughly characteristic speech. His
allusions to the Church which the Archbishop repre-
sented were scholarly and apt. When he
came to speak of unity, the Very. Rev.
Doctor again enunciated that favourite idea of
his—the nationality of churches. That said he "is
the quality which the Greek Church and which the
English Church have in common. They are both
national Churches—both represent the genius of their
country ; they can both look on each other, and
on other Churches, without desire to con-
vert or absorb. What my predecessor said
to the French ecclesiastics may still more
truly be said to our distinguished Greek guests
to-day. Thero ought to be no secret antipathies
between Churches, for which no reason can be given,
but lot every house sweep the dust from their own
door.' We have our vocation, the Greeks have
theirs. We have our faults ; they have theirs.
Let us each do the best we can, and we shall be
pursuing the best because the only pracitcable
course, towards the attainment of our common end."

ITALIAN FINANCES.

The opening of the Italian Parliament, which was to
take place on the Ist of February, has been postponed by a
royal decree until the 7th of March. The reason for this
ronewed prorogation is that Signor Sella finds it impos-
sible to prepare his complete financial scheme by that
time. Signor Sella intends on the 7th of March-1. To
explain the exact situation of the Treasury. 2. To present
detailed accounts of the receipts and expenditure for 1867.
3. To furnish exact data as to the manner in which
the funds destined for the maintenance of public
worship are administered. 4. To shew the actual position
of the ecclesiastical property which the State is
empowered to alienate. 5. To introduce important modi-
fications in the Budgets of 1870. 6. To explain the
economics which the Ministry propose to practise in the
expenditure already commenced. 7. To compile the
budgets for the year 1871, with the addition of some im-
portant laws for the reduction of the army, the reduction
of several taxes, and for changes of the judicial organisa-
tion. The Ministers believe that these measures will
restore the financial equillibrium, and there is reason to
hope that their disciplined majority in the Chamber will
enable them to carry out the programme.

SUAM CHURCHES AND LONDON CHARITIES.

Sir C. E. Trevelyan, in a letter to the Times, calls
attention to the abuses in connection with the Lon-
don parochial charities. He says that there are 68
different parish churches in a space of one mile
in length and half a mile in breadth. The
consequence is that the limited space which has been
adopted as the centre of our national industry is con-
tracted by these useless structures and their long-
disused graveyards. The tithe-rent charge and be-
quests tor the support of the clergy, and the
far richer endowments applied to the decoration
and maintenance of the churches, are, he contends,
sheer waste. Tho parsonage houses, he complains,
are converted into shops and the incumbents are
absentees. The incumbent of one of the
richest City livings, he states, resides at Bath,
whence he comes by rail every Saturday for
the Sunday morning service, and returns home on
Monday. The celebration of Divine service he desig-
nates a sham for on Sunday the streets of the un-
inhabited city are deserted, and congregations do not
exist for such a multitude of churches. It is true, he
adds, that a weekly drama is acted in which
paid officials, alinspeople, and charity children are
made to do duty as congregation. The mockery of
public worship, however, has come to such a pass
that even this venal semblance of congregation is not
to be had. The service is gone through in the
presence of paid officials only. As a remedy for the
evil, he suggests the reappointment of the City into
parishes containing about the number of people found
by experience to be best suited to ministerial super-
! intendence.

A NOVELTY IN THE EDUCATION MOVEMENT.

A new and laudable feature in the education agita-
tion has been tried at Chester. A meeting of
ministers of all denominations was held to discuss
the subject, under the chairmanship of the
Dean of Chester. Of course the Church
of England and the Nonconformist ministers
disagreed in their views; but everybody concurred in
the opinion that the conference would do good. It
was unanimously agreed that delegates from the
League, the Union, and the Manchester Committee
should be invited to attend a public meeting and
explain the different schemes. The idea is a good
one, for we are getting quite enough one-sided
speechifying from the different parties. The League
still pursues the demonstrative tenour of its way.
The last meeting was at Stroud. Mr. Winterbotham,
the member for the borough? declared that a denomi-
national system would be injurious in EnglandL pd
worse than injurious in Ireland. Sir W. Vulse
said the present biblical lessons given in
day schools never did anybody any good.
A working Man adduced a rather strong argument
kto working men) in foe= of the rating system and
e e instruction no explained that a tax at 4d. in
t the pound would only cost a Working. man rated.At
10,A. Bd. a year; and for that he could senklkie
Whole Atinily "to school ; while by paying scheel
pence at 2d. a Week, on an average of forty weeks in
the year, he would have to pay Os. Bd. for each of his
children.

THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PAWNBROEERS.

TliciLiverpool magistrates have just given a de-
cision which deserves notice. They declare that so
long as pawnbrokers take reasonable care of pledges
they are not liable to pay for loss, should any article
be stolen. Thus the broker is declared only the holder
of a security, and nothing more. The property with
which he is entrusted is in no sense his, and
as ho cannot dispose of it, neither should he bear
loss upon it caused by unavoidable circumstances. Of
the law upon the subject lawyers only are qualified
to pronounce ; but the common-sense equity in the
judgment is apparent. Of course by the theft of
the article pledged the pawnbroker loses all his
interest in it; he cannot sue the pledger for the money
tent.

Part of the bog of Clonkelly on Lord Norbury's
property in Tipperary has been shifted a considerable dis-
tance from its former position. This is the third time within
a century that the "moving bog" has exhibited this phe-
nomenon of nature.

'Me Mayor of Dudley is promoting a penny nib-
scription in aid of Mr. George Odger'a candida.ure
Southwark. The movement is said to bo attended with
some success, and similar movements are protected in other
parts of the district.

Miss Garrett, the lady doctor, writes a lengthy
letter to the Pall _Mil Garble in favour of the Contagious
Diseases Acts. The different arguments against those
measures are very carefully examined, but on the whole
Miss Garrett decides in favour of the Acts.

Intelligence has been received of the death of
Mrs. Chambers, the wife of Dr. Robert Chambers, the
well-known publisher of Edinburgh. 1)r. Chambers him-
self met with a serious accident a few days since, from the
effect of which he is recovering.
The Government will take possession of the tele-
graphs on the 29th of this month; but it is not intended
to bring the reduced rates into operation until the sth of
February. For the few days intervening between the
aequisitionand the latter date, the public will be charged

M the dockyard extension works, Chatham,
near the entrance of the factory basin from the re-
pairing basin, about four o'clock yesterday after-
noon, several hundred tons of earth fell, and placed
in peril more than thirty men. It appears
that as Mr. Turner, a foreman of works in the
employ of Mr. Gabrielli, the contractor, was look-
ing round the works before the men knocked off
from work for the day, he fortunately observed
that some of the timbers were moving, and
promptly ordered all the workmen out of harm's
way. In a minute or two a large mass of earth,
timber, stonework, &c., ga% e way, and fell upon
the spot where the men had been working. p.,rt
of a bridge for a tramway across the basin was
carried away. The damage done will inflict a loss
on the contractor of perhaps £l,OOO.

THE LABOUR CANDIDATE.

Outside Southwark the artisan candidate meets
with substantial assistance. Several members of Parlia-
ment, it is said, contemplate signing an address to Mr.
Odger, stating that they will he glad to welcome him
as a colleague if the electors of Southwark return
him. The different trade societies of the metropolis
are getting up meetings in his favour. A sympa-
thetic meeting of the Lambeth working men is
announced, and it is proposed to likewise get up au
aggregate assembly of the Lambeth co-operative,
trade, and friendly societies, for the purpose of
"bringing public opinion to bear." At Dudley the
mayor is raising a penny subscription, and so are
other towns in that district.

MR. AYRTON AND THE FLOWERS.
Mr: Ayrton keeps his own counsel about the flowers
in the metropolitan parks. He lets nobody know
whether he intends to make reductions in this direc-
tion or not. One of his constituents has written to
him, with perhaps a little presumption, asking
whether the rumour concerning him is true. Mr.
Ayrton's secretary has replied with simply an ac-
knowledgment of the letter containing the query.
The press has throughout been so little well disposed
towards Mr. Ayrton that he will keep it in the dark.

A RUN THROUGH FRANCE

A correspondent of the Daily News, who has made a
journey through Franco, from Lyons to Calais, gives some
interesting particulars of the state of affairs at the former
town :—The German, and to some extent the English
English, papers, kayo attempted to make nut that Lyons
is in a state of insurrection against the Government at
Paris. This is not the case. I left. Lyons on Sunday
morning having spent several days in the town. On
Thursday (this day last week) the municipal elections
were held, and the result was the return of most 'or the

members of the " Commune," or committee which
had been directing the government of the town.
They obtained, indeed, a majority upon the Council. It
is true that these persons are members of the Interna-
tional Working Men's Association, that they prefer the
red flag to the tricolour, and that they have not much
confidence in the politics of Trochu or Jules Favre ; but
it is not true that they reject the authority of the Govern-
ment of National Defence. The town was quiet,
except for the noise of the cannon in the forts
which were firing for practice without inter-
mission The whole of the male population was
under a ms, although the greater number were provided
only with muzzle-loading smooth-bore guns. Most of the
battalions carried the red flag, and only a few the tri-
colour, but there did not appear the slightest jealousy
between the partisans of the two flags ; 5,000 men were
engaged in the Valley of the Rhone at "throwing up
earth-lines, and the city was fully determined to resist,
in the event of a corps d'arm4e being sent against
it. About 40,000 regulars were in the town, but
the whole of these were either young engages volon-
taires, or old soldiers who had returned to the flag. The
former predominated, and it will probably be some weeks
before they can be looked upon as soldiers. I shall ho
giving your readers " news " when I tell them that for
the last month Lyons has been in Africa. The explana-
tion is that it counts as Africa for military service in
order that the Algerian depots may be concen-
trated there. The only troops who were leaving
Lyons were those who were being sent to Belfort,
a place of which I think you will hear more before the
war is over. On leaving Lyons I came, with much delay,
by way of Moulins, Nevers, and Bourges, to Tours. In
each of these four towns, as in Avignon, Blois, and pos-
sibly some others, there are about 10,000 men of the same
character as the 40,000 whom I left at Lyons. I
travelled a portion of the way with a general officer who
\Vas coming from Oran. He assured me that
matters were serious in Algeria. In Oran itself
there had been a rising of the Spanish and Italian colo-
nists, which had been put down with but little loss. He
said, however, that papers had been found which showed
that Prussia had a hand in the affair. The Foreign
Legion, which contains a good many Germans were in a
state of mutiny, and upon the frontier the Arabs were
blockading the towns, and had cut off some convoys of
powder, flour, and oats.

HER MAJESTY.

BALMORAL, SEPT. 21.
Prince Arthur went out deer-stalking.

THE MIME WE DRINK.—It is always interesting
to know that what we are partaking of is pure and free
from adulteration. There are many dealers of milk in
London who from the small quantity they sell must neces-
sarily resort to some means of adulteration in order to
earn sufficient for a livelihood, much to the detriment of
public health. The bad name given to London milk
arises in a great measure from this cause, though Lon-
ate
doners now have milk supplied to them in as pure a Bt
.as when first drawn from the cow, if they choose to select
the proper persons to furnish it. The Aylesbury Dahl
Company, of St. Petersburgh-place, Bayswater, has done
a great deal towards supplying London with pure milk'
Purity of milk does not consist in getting it direct from
the cow, but in a great measure depends upon tin
healthiness of the cow. It is obvious that a cow kept l'"
an underground cellar or shed in London cannot produc°
such pure milk as the cow that grFses in the open countrY,
fields; it would be to contradict the natural order
things to think such could be. We all know that a greaf
deal of London milk is produced in this and a varietY °f
other ways too numerous to mention. The AylesbnrY,
Dairy Company get all their milk from the country ills"

THE NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE WAGES
DIFFICULTY.

The third day's sitting of the Malleable Iron Workers
Conference, at Sunderland, occupied itself yesterday with
considering the claims of the North Staffordshire men
for an advance of wages. Regret was expressed that
masters treated men's requests with indifference, and a
special appeal to the masters was directed to be made,
requesting them to appoint a representative
meeting of the masters and men to dis-
cuss the matter. The meeting fseemed anxious
to avoid a strike. The claims of the Scotch operatives
against the injurious effects of gas puddling furnaces was
also discussed, and it was resolved that if masters paid
no attention, men should be advised to give notice to
leave.

OWEN'S COLLEGE, MANCHESTER.-LAYING
THE FOUNDATION STONE.

The foundation stone of the new buildings for Owen's
College, Manchester, was laid yesterday by the Duke of
Devonshire, who has been appointed the first presi-
dent. For this extension of the college a sum of
£102,000 has been raised in Manchester during
the past two years, of which £67,000 is available for
the building. Said building does not constitute one half
of the complete scheme, and some £25,000 or £30,000
more is wanted for constructive purposes ; besid g,
which, a sum is to be provided for the foundation of new
professorships. Accommodation will be provided for about
800 or 1,000 students. The Duke of Devonshire,in addressing
the meeting after laying the stone, said, if the object of the
college should be completely fulfilled, it would be only a
matter of time when Manchester should be as
distinguished for her school of literature and
science as she now was for being the great
centre of industries. Professor Huxley afterwards
spoke. He congratulated Manchester upon having helped
herself with waiting upon Government aid. He should
most heartily like to see the example copied in every
part of the kingdom. Profesor Tyndall also addressed
the meeting, and expressed his conviction that the futUre
of Owen's College would be a thoroughly great one.

THE LOSS OF H.M.S. CAPTAIN.

We have received the following letter from Captain
Bediord Pim :

Sir,—My attention has been drawn to various letters
which have appeared in your daily contemporaries ani-
madverting upon my letter of the 16th inst. on the loss of
the Captain.
The writers have allowed their personal regard for the
memory of a brave and distinguished officer to blind them
to the real points at issue, and have contented themselves
with abusing me without attempting to controvert the
accuracy of my opinion, to which I more than ever
adhere.
I can, however, quite forgive them, as I know that they
have been actuated by a strong feeling of friendship for
the late Captain Burgoyne, and I will only say that they
should not have allowed this feeling, however excellent in
itself, to make them unjust to another.
My justification in writing as I did is clear. It is of the
highest importance to the nation that the recent event
should be fully discussed, and that persons having a
knowledge of the service should do all they can to throw
light upon the matter, and not allo kv themselves to be
stopped from doing this plain duty by the fear that indi-
vidual feelings may be hurt.
As to waiting to see what the court-martial brings forth,
I need scarcely say that the experience of the public re-
specting court-martials generally has not convinced them
that they can safely surrender their right of independent
inquiry and discussion to the mere finding of a court
'martial.—I am, &c.,

BEDFORD PI r.

AN IRISH NATIONAL AdIi3IILANCE CORPS FOR
FRANCE. —Several Irish ladies and gentlemen resident
in London, following the example of their country people
in Dublin, have formed a national committee in London
for the purpose of obtaining subscriptions and sending out
able-bodied young Irishmen to form an Irish National
Ambulance Corps in France. The committee have taken
offices at Bolt-court, Fleet-street, to which place, it is
stated on the placards which are extensively posted
throughout the City, all young Irishmen must apply.
Posters and handbills have been widely circulated in the
localities and public-houses where the Irish people are
known to frequent. It is stated that the young Irish
volunteers will be sent out in companies of 60 or 100 at a
time, and that they will receive an outfit and pay on their
arrival in France. Large subscriptions have been already
received by the committee, which has made an earnest_
appeal for more, to enable it to send out without (lela3
the hundreds of young and stalwart lirishment who make
daily application.

THE STATE OF LYONS.

The Salutation Public. of Lyons, of the 18th, publishes
an article on the state of the town, from which it appears
that the newly-elected municipal council entered on their
functions on September 16, and very soon discovered their
office was no sinecure, for they assembled at three in the
afternoon, and did not break up until midnight! They began
their discussion by the question of substituting the tri-
colour for the drapeau rouge which has floated over the
town since the overthrow of the Empire, partly from the ex-
cessive tolerance of the National Guard and partly from
the desire to avoid a conflict which might lead to disas-
trous consequences. The Salut Public declares that as
soon as a regular administration' was installed at the
Hotel de Ville it had full confidence in universal suffrage,
and believed that it would establish institutions secure
alike from a coup d'etat from above and surprises from be-
low. The fear of extreme measures has, says this journal,
wrought great mischief. At the time of the Plebiscite,
in last May, the terror of social disorganization and a
despotic, perhaps even sanguinary Republic, threw
back to the side of the Empire seven million
electors, of whom the greater part regretted
having no other choice. Terrible disasters have
followed, in which the overthrow of the Empire and
the establishment of the Republic has nowhere been
marked by disorder, excepting at Lyons, where the muni-
cipal council will soon put an end to the tumult,
which had its headquarters at the Hatel de
Ville. Everywhere else throughout France the people have
remained calm, and we can face these interior questions
with confidence. - Formerly too much was thought of
etiquette and external appearances. Now we are face
to face with the reality. Let us accept the new regime
without, any arriere pewee'. We wish to encourage no
reactionary policy, but only to see Paris follow the exam-
ple of other towns in order and intelligent patriotism.
Another account a day or two later says that the Muni-
cipal Council has met twice every day since the election,
but they have not yet taken any active steps, contenting
themselves with general discussions, whilst waiting till their
number was completed by the elections now pending.

MIDNIGHT MEETING MOVEMENT. Office, 5,
Red Lion-square, W.C., London.—During the last 10 years
this Institution has been instrumental in rescuing a vast number
of poor girls from a life of degradation and misery. The plan
adopted has been to seek the wandereri in the streets of London
and gather them together at the midnight hour, when short and
faithful addresses have been given.
During the present year the Meetings have been held nearly
every week In some of the most frequented districts of the
metropolis.
The promoters have abundant evidence that these efforts have
been most successful in effecting a great moral change in many
fallen ones.
To enable them to continue their important work, FUNDS are
earnestly solicited, and will be thankfully received by Mr. John
Stabb, Hon. Sec., 6, Red Lion-square, W.C., London ; and at the
Union Bank of London (Carey-street Branch), W.C.

M. TRIERS AND THE REPUBLIC.

The Paris correspondent of the Independance Beige gives
the following fragment of a conversation in which M.
Thiers took part, at his own house, before starting on his
mission. M. Thiers declared the object of his voyage
was to obtain the recognition of the Republic by
the three Governments which he was going to
visit; and this object, if gained, would render
peace possible after a brief delay. He did not dis-
simulate that for his part he saw no hope in the future
for France, except under a Republic, and said all good
citizens should unite to consolidate it without reservation
and without dreaming of a future monarchy. They must
stifle even the most legitimate regrets, and he (M. Thiers)
would set them the example.

FISHING IN SCOTLAND.

It is said that there has rarely been so successful a
season for salmon fishing in the Scotch rivers as the
present one. The Deveron, the Spey, the Earn, and
the Tay, all are yieldint, salmon, grilse, and sea trout
in abundance, On the. last-mentioned river a gen-
tleman is stated to have landed no less than eight
salmon in one day, the largest being a fish weighing
311bs. A propos of salmon fishing, a queer contra-
, diction of the theory that the fish can only
thrive in clear water has been afforded in San
Francisco this year, thousands of fine salmon having
shown themselves in the muddy waters of the Sacra-
mento. In Mexico • fish are so plentiful
that they were Seen ascending every stream (com-
municating with the ocean), even up those narrow
ones which could easily be jumped across by..the
fishermen. In Scotland the more distinguished fishers
this season are numerous, and of both sexes, Lady
Caroline Gordon Lennox, the Earl of March, the
Bi4hop of Rochester, and the Duke of Richmond
being some of the most notable of the visitors.

PRUSSIAN ARTILLERY.

A Lyons journal gives some accounts of the Prussian
artillery, taken from the work of Captain Schott, Profes-
sor at the military school of Erfurt. It advises the
General, officers, and others who occupy important
places in the army of Paris to read the translation of the
work, for they will gain most important information with
respect to the enemy's movements. French publications
respecting portable arms and the Prussian artillery,
have generally treated almost exclusively of the needle-
gun and the cannons used in campaigns, but all must ad-
mit that the time has come for paying particular atten-
tion to the German materials for siege, hitherto little
known. Steel, bronze, and cast iron are the metals em-
ployed in the fabrication of the Prussian pieces of
ordnance in campaign and in siege. Steel, by its tenacity,
admits of a reductiOn in the size, and consequently in
the weight of the pieces ; while, by its hardness, it pre-
, serves the chamber of the gun frOm deterioration. It has
been chosen for these reasons, to the exclusion of all other
metal, for the cannons used in campaign. The Prussians
likewise employ steel in the manufacture of new pieces of
ordnance for siege, but from motives of economy they
still keep in use and manufacture bronze ordnance with
the metal found in the material that is cast aside. All
the smooth-bore pieces of ordnance are muzzle-loaders,
and all the rifled pieces of ordnance are breech-loaders.
The field artillery consists of steel cannon, which *ow
cylindrical shells of from four to six kilogrammes. The
siege artillery consists of steel, bronze, and cast-iron
rifled cannon, of smoothbore howitzers, and cannon in
cast-iron, of shell mortars in bronze and cast-iron. Some
of the rifled siegeannon throw cylindrical shells of 28
kilogrammes.

POSTAL CHANGES,

Numerous changes in the postal arrangements
have been announced to come into operation on and
from the Ist of October next. On the date named
circulars, when they are wholly or in part printed,
engraved, or lithographed, may be sent under the
regulations of the book post. The book post rate
will be reduced to one halfpenny for every two
ounces or fraction of that weight. No book packet
may exceed 141bs. in weight, nor may it exceed two
filet in length, or one foot in width or depth. Postage
4mps, as we have already intimated,
,eilf the value of three half-pence, will be issued for
sale to the public, as will post cards bearing an im-
pressed half-penny stamp. The postage will, in
future, be one half-penny for every two ounces or
fraction of that weight; but the pattern and sample
post will be restricted to bond fide trade patterns or
samples of merchandise. Goods sent for sale, or in
execution of ft n order (however small the quantity
may be), or any articles sent by one private indivi-
dual to anoner, which may not actually be patterns
or samples, are inadmissible. The changes with
regard to newspapers have also been officially made,
the most prominent being the introduction of the
half-penny rate on registered newspapers.
