THE VANGUARD.

The Western Morning News gives special prominence to
the following :—The Vanguard, one of the new ironclads,
has been ordered to proceed to sea from the Sound to-day
(Thursday.) We have already given a warning, and we
repeat it. On the First Lord of the Admiralty will rest
the responsibility, if, in the case of the Vanguard the
disaster which befell the Captain is repeated. We have
mentioned from time to time various indications of her un-
seaworthiness. We are not in possession of the data or the
professional knowledge, enabling us to pronounce author-
itatively as to the safety or otherwise of the ship, but
this we do know, that some of her officers and many of
her men are far more alarmed at the prospect of en
countering a gale. in her than British meamen are wont to
be at storms or battles ; that we have had many appeals
from those who have had the opportunity to
judge of the ship, but who dare not. publish their names,
urging us to use our influence to postpone the voyage
and that the wives of several on board have, with tears in
their ?yes, begged us to remonstrate. It may be that all
these fears are unfounded ; but they do exist, and to send
the ship to sea without incontestible evidence of her
safety is to court homicide, while to withhold the publica-
tion of such evidence, if it exists, is downright cruelty.

LONDON SCHOOL BOARD.

The Rev. Canon Cromwell addressed a numerously
attended meeting of the ratepayers of the Royal Hospital
Yard, Chelsea, last night, and stated the grounds upon
which he sought to represent the borough of Chelsea, at
the Education Board., The Rev. J. B. Owen, M.A.,
presided. The meeting pledged itself almost unanimously
to support Canon Cromwell at the election.

THE VACCINATION LAW.—On Tuesday, at the
Manchester City Police-court, a warrant of commitment
was granted against William Waterhall Hulme, who had
refused to pay a fine of 20s. and costs for refusing to vac-
cinate his child. A distress warrant had been issued against
him, but it was found that he had no goods.—Manchester

BAZAINE'S PRECEDENTS

Marshal Bazaine, in his proclamation to his army,
Consoles them for the catastrophe of Metz by quoting
the examples of eminent generals, who had been com-
pelled to suffer the same fate. One of his officers,
who has made it his business to study military
history, denies this, and says that in the records of
no time or country can he find a parallel case. At
the famous capitulation of Ulin, Mack had but
30,000 men, and he had suffered a serious
defeat before being shut up in an ill-sup-
plied place. Vercingetorix at Alise, an ex-
ample which has to be sought for at
a vast interval, was not only beaten before he suf-
fered himself to be invested, but did •not capitulate
till a desperate struggle had shewn him the futility
of his efforts. Coming to the French generals,
whom Bazaine especially cites,. the comparisons, are
not more appropriate. Massena at Genoa: after a
valiant struggle, imposed his own conditions on his
enemy, and was allowed to cross the French frontier
with arms and baggage, and soon after re-com-
menced hostilities. Kleber was only a simple brigade
general at Mayence, under the orders of General
oyre", and when the ' garrison capitulated they
kept. their arms, and only pledged themselves
not to fight against Prussia for a year. In Egypt at
a later period, Kleber gave a different answer to the
demand for the capitulation of Heliopolis. Gouvion-
St.-Cyr, who surrendered at Dresden after the,
retreat from -,Russia, only capitulated, after a long
resistance, on condition of
_returning to France with
his troops--•a condition not .fulfilled by the allies.
Marshal Bazaine at Metz may, therefore, enjoy the
unenviable distinction of furnishing the only instance
on record in which so large an army surrendered
without first sustaining an irreparable defeat.

MIDNIGHT MEETING MOVEMENT. Office, B,
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 wanderers 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., 5, Red Lion-square, W.C., London ; and at the
Union Bank of London (Carey-street Branch), W.C.

MR. COLLINS, M.P., ON ENGLAND'S
DEFENCES.

At the Mayor's dinner at Boston, on Wednesday, Mr.
Thomas Collins, M.P. for the borough, said he was satis-
fied that the English navy was better than all the others
in Christendom. An increase of the Militia and encourage-
ment of the Volunteers, he said, were ample for defensive
purposes; and were far more acceptable to the English
people than a forced military service. He said the English
had no right to dictate the internal affairs of other nations.

THE PRESERVATION OF INFANT LIFE.

A. deputation 'Waited on Mr. Bruce at the Home
Office with the view of ascertaining his views with
respect to future legislation for checking the present
sacrifice of infant life. Mr. Charley, M.P., introduced
the deputation, which represented the association
recently formed for promoting a bill which
would deal with the secret "putting away" of infants.
The suggestion made to the Home Secretary was
that: the registration of births should be compulsory,
that all places where children are taken to nurse
should be registered, that all persons who act as
midwives should be licensed, and that an inquest
should be held on every child dying when in the
hands of a hired nurse. Mr. Bruce thought
that the making of stringent laws as to places where
where children were brought up would cause many
to be put away altogether. He assured the deputa-
tion that the Government wer3 inquiring into the
subject, and if an official measure were not brought
in, the association had a right to expect Govern-
ment support.. Mr. Charley incidentally observed
that the children put to baby farms were killed in
the proportion of 50 to I killed • by the parents.

THE MONARCH.

We are authorised to make public the results of the
recent experiment made for ascertaining the precise
position of the centre of gravity of the Monarch, and
of the calculations based thereon for measuring the exact
amount of her righting force at every angle of inclina-
tion. As these results would have no public interest
'except in a comparative form, the particulars 'given
are confined to those which have been already made
public in the recent inquiry into the loss of the Captain,
in order that the comparative stability of the two ships
at their deep-load draught of water may be seen. The
results are such as must reassure any persons who inferred
from certain points of similarity in the two ships that the
Monarch was not as seaworthy as has been hitherto sup-
posed.
Monarch. Captain.
Angle at which the edge of the deck
is immersed

Amount of righting force in the
above position in foot tons ... 12,542 ... 5,700
Angle of maximum stability ... 40 deg. ... 21 deg.
Maximum amount of rightingforce
in foot tons... ... 15,615 ... 7,100
Angle at which the righting force
becomes zero .. 69 deg. ... 54i deg.
Reserve of dynamical stability at
an angle of heel of 14 deg. in foot
tons ... ... ... 6,500 ... 410

The best measure of the comparative power of the two
ships to resist capsizing, after a given angle of inclination
is reached, is to be found in the dynamical stability..
This is seen to be at an angle of permanent heel of 14 flog.
—nearly 16 times as great in the Monarch as it was in the
Captain. In other words, if both ships were inclined
undei sail at the angle which immersed the edge of the
Captain's deck, the. reserve of energy to prevent capsiz-
ing by a squall would be in the two ships in the porpor-
tiou of 16 to 1.

RUSSIAN SILK.

The Russian manufacturers have been urged by
the newspapers of St. Petersburg and Moscow to
extend the production of silk in Russia. The war
has affOrded them an excellent opportunity, as the
industrial progress of France and Germany has been
checked, and their energies to a great extent.
paralysed. here are 180 silk factories in the Rus-
sian empire. The raw material comes from the
Caucasus, and the goods produced are valued at
700,000 roubles yearly. Hitherto these goods have
nut been exported, as no more are manu-
factured than are required for the home supply,
but the Russian journals wisely argue that
a great extension might be given to the manufacture
o silk, as the raw material is plentiful in supply and
excellent in quality. It is believed that with energy
and perseverance, Russian silk might prove a great
success; and eventually compete in a satisfactory
manner with the trade of Germany and France.
THE AFRICAN DIAMOND FIELDS.

The "rush " to the diamond fields in Africa con-
tinues without any abatement. According to the
latest advices from the Cape diamonds of extraor-
dinary size and value have been discovered, and so
great is the excitement produced by the finding of
these pr_•cious stores that ere long not a family in
the colony will be unrepresented at the fields. The
resources of the waggon-makers are severely tested,
the builders working night and day in order to
meet the preparations of those anxious to improve
their fortunes. Portable wooden houses are being
constructed for erection at O-i-amanta. Oxen are
advancing in prices, and the exodus of the working
and producing power from Natal is creating great
uneasiness. The ownership of the diamond region
is still disputed, the Free State continuing to urge its
claims. The President of the Transvaal Republic is
reported to be working at the diggings. Several
colonial and civil servants ' had, according to the
latest advices, obtained a long leave of absence for
the purpose of going to the fields. •

At the request of Inhabitant Ratepayers of each 01

the London School Board.

I desire that every child in England be educated, and that the
education be as complete as may he consistent with the age at
which he must enter upon the business of life.
I cannot deem any education complete which does not include
religious subjects. 1 desire that the Bible be not only read but
taught : and am convinced that the Education Act may be
loyally and honestly carried out without any violation of the
rights of conscience.
I can devote to your service abundant leisure ' • and if, in the
course of events, I return to parliamentary life, I trust that your
interests will not suffer from the opportunity thus afforded of
defending the Education Act against unwise attack, while advo-
cating every reform which experience may hereafter recom-
mend.

MISGOVERNMENT IN CASII➢IERE,

The people of Cashmere are suffering greatly from
misgovernment. To add to their distress, a partial
failure in the grain crop has occurred, and the Euro-
p!,an War has materially affected the trade in shawls,
the manufacture of which beautiful and costly articles
the staple of Cashmerian industry. Pnris which
found so much occupation for the looms of Cashmere
no longer cares, were she in a position, to trade in
shawls; at least she has no present desire. It is
rumoured in Cashmere that the Maharajah, who
derives a considerable revenue from the stamp duty
0:1 shawls and from monopolies connected with the
culture and treatment of wool, intends to enter the
London market as a seller, and do like some other
potentates have done—enter into commercial life.

INCREASE OF OUR DEFENSIVE FORCE.

Mr. OSBORNE asked the Secretary of State for War
whether, in the present warlike aspect of continental
affairs, taking into account the large armies brought into
the field, and the sudden manner in which war had been
proclaimed, it would not be advisable to lose no time in
augmenting the defensive forces of the country by at
once increasing the Militia, and adding to the effective
strength, of the Royal Artillery. And whether efficient
arrangements exist for enabling the regular forces,
militia and volunteers, to take the field thoroughly
equipped in point of arms, camp equipage, and 'commis-
sariat.

Mr. CARDWELL said the supplemental estimate that had
been laid on the table would shew that it was the inten-
tion of the Government to augment the forces of the
country. (Hear, hear.) The Militia and Royal A:tilbary
would o; course receive due consideration. He might,

however, say that the Royal Artillery was in a most effi-
cient state. With respect to the 4ith Regiment, under
orders for the Cape, it was not the intention to send that
regiment to that colony. (Hear, hear.)

COALING THE FRENCH FLEET IN THE
BALTIC.

Mr. STAPLETON asked the First Lord of the Treasury
whether his attention had been called to the report that
the French fleet in the Baltic is to be supplied with coal
direct from this country. Whether it would be consistent
with neutrality to allow any vessels, either French,Eng-
lish, or others to carry coal direct from this country to a
belligerent fleet at sea. And whether English vessels
so engaged would be entitled to the protection of their
country if the other belligerent should treat them as
enemies, considering them part of the armament to
which they were acting as tenders.
Mr. GLADSTONE : The House has already been apprised
more than once that there.is nothing in a general way to
prevent the export of coal from this country, but if
either belligerent capttire it, the question whether
it is contraband of war will be a question
for the consideration of the court of the
captors. But my hon. friend calls attention tea particular
case, and, although the export of coal is not generally
prohibited, the exporters being warned that if coal be
supplied to either belligerents they run the risk of capture,
yet, of the case quoted by my hon. friend, which I can
neither affirm nor deny, as I had no more knowledge of it
than he has, that is to say, of knowledge derived from
general rumour, the case presents itself in a somewhat
different aspect, and in that form the question has been

TIIL•' SEPTEMBER CONVENTION.

In Sunday's sitting of the Italian Chrimber of Deputies
Signor Laporta censured the policy of the Government,
which, he said, should denounce the f2eptember Conven-
tion, which had been violated by France. The
culuct of the Gbvernment was calculated to
provoke disturbances• in Italy.— Signor Lanza
replied It is strange that- the Left should
await- the present moment to advocate the
expediency of denouncing the September Convention.
Such a policy might prevent the evacuation which is de-
sired by all Italians. It would be. Unworthy to emlxirrass
France at the moment of ber commencing war. The
Government would protect the honour and interests of
the country. Amid existing difficulties which it had done
everything to avert it did not fear the menace of
internal disturbances, which would be energetically
repressed, and by whomsoever fomented the Go-
vernment would not. admit of any individual
initiative. The Chamber accepted the declarations of the
Ministry, and passed to the order of the day. The.credit
for 16 millions for military and naval armaments and the
conventions with the railway companies were approved by
the Chamber.

VERSAILLES IN DANCER.

Versailles had a narrow escape yesterday. An
immense quantity of ammunition of all sorts
has been stored there lately. In the afternoon
an empty box, in the midst of a mass of
Powder, shells, &c., was discovered on fire. A few
courageous artillerymen rushed to the spot, and succeeded

says the report, "and half Versailles would have been
blown down." This is looked upon as the work of Prussian
emissaries in France.

THE• NEW YORK PRESS ON PREVOST PARADOI4.

The American papers just received contain some
reference to the suicide of Al. Pr6vost Paradol. The
New York Herald says that all must deeply regret

Le abrupt fatal termination of the career of this dis-

tinguished academician at the critical juncture of
affairs which attended his mission to Washington.
Many causes are suggested for the melancholy act. It
has been supposed that M. Prevost Paradol was one
more victim to the overwork of modern
journalism. The mental toil to which he was
subjected was great. It is also thought that he was
excited by the responsibilities of his position, and
irritated by the opposition which he encountered
from various quarters. Another suggestion is that
ho was shocked on his arrival in New York, to re-
ceive the news of an impending European war, and,
finally, that the excessive heat which prevailed
Droved too much for him, harassed as he was in mind
and wearied in body• The .New York Tribune de-
clares that the suicide of M. Prevost Paradol will
shock educated and liberal men throughout the word.
In political honesty and tact he was one of the
foremost men in ate French Empire.
The thoughtful and polished journalist
was most formidable to the Tuileries, as
he generally . contrived
.to evade the
press laws. The Tribune did not consider that
Prevost Paradol forswore himself when he accepted
the mission-to America, :but it can give no explana-
tion of the awful event of his suicide. There can be
little doubt that he was insane, and there were causes
enough to overthrow his reason, as he was a man of
sensitive mental and physical organisation. His loss
may be a misfortune to America, as it cannot fail to
be to France. It would have been a great advantage
.to deal with a liberal minister during the many com-
plications that the ensuing war will bring about,
and M. Prevost Paradol possessed a complete know-

MORE BUTTER. MYSTERIES.

We have heard a great deal about the horrible
things which are given to us in the shape of butter ;
but the most pleasing detail of all has, it would seem,
yet to be published. We are credibly informed that
the following facts are correct. The meat which the
London inspectors seize, as unfit for food, is paid for
at the rate of a halfpenny a pound. It is not, unless
the case is very bad indeed, absolutely destroyed;
but melted into fat and sold to whomsoever may
choose to buy it. Plenty of people are very willing
to acquire this treasure, for it is used in making
butter! Yes, it is an interesting fact that a staff of
inspectors is kept up by the London civic authorities;
these men are usually competent to perform their
duties; but, when they have seized meat which is
not fit for consumption, their arrangements are such
that outside speculators manage to return the rubbish
to the public in the shape of butter.

OFI4ICIAL NEWS.

The Journal °Aid publishes the following war news,
but without stating the place whence it has beenreceivedt
The previsions and munitions are being rapidly sent
forward. The country ii,self furnishes great resources in
meat and vegetables; but the military authorities hus-
band them in order to prevent scarcity and dearness,
precautions all the more necessary because the country
before us has already admitted the enormous requisitions.
According to the statements of deserters, the Prussians
suffer greatly from want of blankets and tents.
The Emperor has decided on abolishing the shako.
This measure will be executed throughout within a few
days. According to the statements of deserters, the
entuy are much astonished at the great range of the
French rifles. The Bavarian outposts have fallen back on
Lauter.

AUGUST 2, 1870.

zollern had accepted the Crown of Spain. As in duty
bound, I left to the Government of the Emperor the task
of setting them right. I could not keep the same silence
in face of the use which Count Bismarck has
made of a document to which he seeks to give
a value which it never possessed, and I re
quest your Excellency's leave to re-establish the
' facts exactly as they occurred: It is a matter of public
notoriety that Count Bismarck offered us, before and
during the last war, to assistin uniting Belgium to France,
as a compensation for the aggrandisements of which he
was ambitious, and which he obtained for Prussia.
I might, on this point, appeal to the testimony of the
entire diplomacy of Europe, to whom the whole affair
was known. The Government of the Emperor constantly
declined these overtures, and one of your predecssors, M.
Drouyn de Lhuys, is in a position to give, -on this subject,
explanations which must remove every doubt. At the
moment of the conclusion of the Peace of Prague,
and in face of the emotion which was ex-
cited in France by the annexation to Prussia of
Hanover, of Electoral Hesse, and of the town of Frank-
fort, M. de Bismarck again shewed the strongest desire
to re-establish the balance of power, which had been
disturbed by these acquisitions. Various com-
binations having reference to the integrity of
the States neighbours of France and Germany
were put forward; they become the subject of several
conversations, during which M. do Bismarck was always
disposed to make his personal ideas prevail. In one of
these conversations, and in order to give myself an exact
idea of his combinations, I consented to transcribe
them in a manner "en quelque sorte " ) at his
dictation. The form, no less than the sub-
stance, shews clearly that I confined myself to
reproducing a project conceived and developed by him.
M. de Bismarck kept this document, wishing to submit
it to the King. On my side, I reported in substance to the
Imperial Government the communications which had been
made to me. The Emperor rejected them as soon as they
came to his knowledge. lam bound to say that the King
of Prussia himself did not seem to wish to accept the
basis of them ; and since that time, that is to say, during
the last four years, I have never again entered upon any
new exchange of ideas on the subject with M. •
de Bismarck. M. Benedetti concludes by point-
ing out that if " the initiative of such a treaty had
been taken by the Government of the Emperor, the pro-
ject would have been drafted by the Foreign-office, and I
should not have had to produce a copy of it in my own
handwriting."

BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.

At the Cambridgeshire Assizes yesterday, Baron
Channel! presided at nisi prius court, Where the principal
case was an action for a breach of promise of marriage,
brought by Ellen Bull the daughter of a farmer at Ely,
against the Rev. Henry Robinson, of St. John's College,
Cambridge, who has been engaged in tuition at Manches-
ter since 1864. The engagement commenced in 1864; and
the letters were of the most ardent character up to 1867,
when it suddenly changed on the part of the defendant,
who subsequently offered the plaintiff 2250 to release him.
Mr. Metcalf appeared for the plaintiff, and read a large
number of letters which shewed the warmest of attach-
ment which evidently existed between the parties at first.
After the case had lasted all day, the jury considered for
about a quarter, of an hour, and returned a verdict of
damages for plaintiff for 2350.

AT GOODWOOD.

A certain writer has been enthusiastic about the
ladies' dresses worn at Goodwood races this year.
They were magnificent, he says, only one fault being
perceptible, namely, there was too much white about
them. " White after all," he adds, "is only white, and
leaves no impression but its purity and simplicity on
the mind of the beholder, however richly trimmed
or embroidered." A very noticeable feature was the
silks and satins of those peculiar hues that linger for
days on the memory, and bear describing—as for in-
stance, " a mauve satin petticoat made with a deep
ficunce, the upper skirt and body cut in one of thick
white silk figured with large mauve pansies, mauve
satin sash, white and mauve bonnet, with white and
mauve feather." Another very distingue costume was
of stone-coloured poult de soie with a green tint in it,
" trimmed with narrow flounces half-way up the skirt
alternate colours, the stone-coloured silk and a very
deep olive green silk, a.large panier standing out from
the dress made of the alternate colours as the skirt, a
tight-fitting body trimmed to correspond with the
dress." The bonnets were scarcely less pretty and
bewitching than the silks and satins, laces and ruffs.
Perhaps the hands muest style of bonnet worn was
one, the front of which was "composed entirely of a
high wreath of dark green leaves, black and green
cock feathers, with long bow and ends of black
ribbon falling over the chignon." The men looked
odious, as a rule, white coats and white hats, with
the proverbial glasses slung over the back, being the
general costume.
