AN AMERICAN VIEW OP MRS. STOWIIr

Some hard things have been hinted on this side of
the Atlantic concerning Mrs. Stowe and her conduct
in the Byron affair. But most of our journals have
confined themselves to hints ; they have
not overstepped certain very strict bounds.
It remains for an American—a member of the
United States Congress—to shew us the way we
shall conduct our controversies for the future.
Writing to our own Times, this Congressman ex-
presses, on behalf of his countrymen, his astonish-
ment that the English should pay so much attention
to the article in Macmillan's Maya:zne. Mrs. Stowe,
he says, is " a Inere sensational writer "—a term of
r: preach intended just to introduce to some
further sweets of bitter castigation—nothing is con-
sidered reliable that comes from her pen ; " she will at
all times sacrifice truth " for notoriety. More than
this, she is ungrateful ; for she repays the English
for time only fame she ever had, and which they gave
her in ma!iing much of " Uncle Tom's Cabin," by
calumniating one of their greatest poets. It is not
only Mrs. Stowe, but the whole Beecher family,
which is unworthy of regard. They are mere
sensationalists, " without true merit or substantial
talents." The crowd may be amused with their
antics ; the thinking community pay no heed to
them.

THE ELECTION CO3I3ITSSIONS.

The Norwich Election Commissioners appear to
be exhausted. They have threatened some witnesses,
committed others to prison, -examined and cross-
examined, and all to little purpose. It is plain that
the witnesses have been telling as little truth as pos-
sible. Two men wero ordered into custody on
Saturday. An agent who had £2OO given to him
for bribery purposes has confessed all, and the bribed
are being called up to give evidence.
At Beverley it is being elicited that the charities
of the town have in several eases been administered
corruptly. The " pasture masters," also, who have
under their care, as representing the freemen, a large
outlying district of common, have so used their
power that freemen have found it beneficial to vote
Conservative.

The inquiry at Bridgwater has demonstrated that
bribers have consciences. A witness named Barham
detailed how when the Liberals had won the election,
be saw immediately bow they bad done so, for ono
of the committeemen was "as white as a ghost " ;
another looked anxious and scared, and so on. The
same witneEs declined to answer a question as to
whether Mr. Eing,lake knew how the election had
been won. Ile said that both candidates were
informed before the election that they could not win
upon pure principles.

BISITOPS AT A BANQUET.

The ancient haters of Prelacy in Scotland must
have been sorely troubled last week, for they had in
their midst live bishops taking counsel together and
devising ways for spreading the doctrines of Epis:o-
palianism in a country noted for its devoted love of the
Presbyterian form of church government. There was
the Bishop of Oxford preaching sermons and making
speeches, winning all hearts by his "wondrons per-
suasive eloquence." The Bishop of Rochester, evidently
in ill-health, obtained many thanks for giving up
part of his holiday, that he might be at the opening
of In .-LTness Cathedral; and the Primate of Scotland
(Bishop Eden) the Bishops of St. Andrew's, and of
Breehin, were describing their • plans for the
flture. Sermons services, and speeches, ruled the
hour by terns. In the first and last named tbo
Bishop of Oxford was a great favourite. his speezh at
the banquet—there must always be a banquet—was
most kindly and sympathetic in its tone. He spoke
appropriately of the relations between the two
Churches of England and Scotland; but seemed to be
unelry as to the future of the Anglican establishment.
Glancing furtively at the unestablished character
of Scotch episcopalianism, he referred to the bond of
common trouble which would always exist between
the two great religious bodies ; a chain which no
legislation could break, as it held heart to
heart. His lordship advised his hearers to avoid
making their Church a denomination, and counselled
that while they abated not a jot or title of their own
opinions of truth, they should look in others, not
for points of difference, but for agreement. The
growth of the cathedral out of small things was related
by the Bishop of Moray and Ross. First, he said,
two little girls were cared for at school, the school
became larger, and grew into a mission church ; the
church became a power, and increasing its import-
ance found a cathedral necessary; built it; had
opened it that clay. The Bishop of Rochester
eulogisel the Bishop of Moray. He, too, referred to
the " day of trial ".coming upon the English Church ;
and requested the prayers of Scotchmen when it came.
Everyone was assured, however—Scotch or Eng-
lish—that Cis strength of the Church lay
not so much in its endowments, or in its established
position, as in the hold it had on the hearts of the
-people.

SUBMARINE TELEGRAPHY.

It is understood that in order to test the relative
merits of light and heavy deep sea cables, the Con-
struction Company propose to try experiments with
different kinds of light wire on the occasion of laying
the Red sea line. The Telegraph thinks that such
investigations are needed before deciding in favour
of the light system : for whilst the heavy cable has
proved completely successful after other forms had
been tried and failed, the light wire has no; yet
passed the ordeal of experiment on a large scale.
smaller weight must indeed prove advantageous in
submerging and picking up; but can the weight of a
cable be diminished without proportionately lessening
the strength ? As to durability the Telegraph
believes those who have had the greatest experience
in the work of laying submarine cables are still of
opinion that a gutta percha core, covered with iron
and hemp, plus tar and silica, will last longer than a
gutta pereha, core, plus hemp only. The only way to
set these questions of rest is to give the new system
a fair and full trial.

1-1 The Committee earnestly desire to raise funds which
shall enable them to establish the Hospital in more suit-
able buildings. The promises now occupied are crowded
and inconvenient, causing additional expense from that
circumstance. It is impossible even to purchase on whole-
sale terms many articles of daily consumption from want
of room for stowage, every inch of available space being
occupied. There is a daily demand for more beds, and the
staff of nurses would be able to attend upon more children,
but no more can be admitted in the present building.
£B,OOO at least is required to carry out this much-wished-
for and urgent scheme.

CLERKS' SALARIES.

For some time past a discussion has been carried
on in the columns of the Daily News on the subject
of clerks' salaries. This controversy, or rather
lamentation, was followed up by an application from
the servants of one eminent banking firm for an
increase of salary on account of the dearness of
living. The house has refused this request. The em-
ployers allege that living, though now dearer in some
respects, is cheaper in others. Rents are higher, but
cheap railways have extended the inhabitable
area. But this refusal is more especially based
on the argument that the firm is in the habit
of fixing salaries according to the merit of those
who receive them. The claims of each person are
carefully reviewed at the end of each year, and his
pay then dealt with either by addition, by withhold-
ing increase, or, if need be, by diminution, and in
extreme cases by dismissal, as the particular facts
may justify. The advantages of thus dealing by
merit would be sacrificed altogether, the employers
think 2 by an indiscriminate increase. The logic of this
question is simple enough. The duties of a clerk
require only a small amount of education; and the
number who possess this minimum is every year on
the increase. It is not to be expected that work
which requires very little skill and knowledge to
perform it, can be highly remunerative under present
circumstances. The labour is unskilled, and the price
accordingly must be low.

AN AMERICAN ENTERRRISE.

An engineering enterprise of some importance is being
discussed in the United States. It aims at establishing a
line of continuous water communication from the west to
the seaboard through Virginia by a junction between the
waters of the Kanawho and James Rivers. The scheme
bas long been a favourite ore with the population of Vir-
ginia, and the State has expended twelve million dollars is
bringing the line of navigation up to Buchanan, 200 miles
from Richmond, but seventy-five miles of canal between the
arms of the James and Kanawha Rivers are wanted to com
plete the central water line. When complete it will
extend from St. Louis to Norfolk, a distance of 3,551
miles, and the transit will take eleven dlya,
By this means the products of the West can
be brought eastward with an ease and an economy
most advantageous to the people. Norfolk is the finest
harbour on the seaboard and lies due east of the centre of
the whole system of interior navigation at the mouth of
the Ohio. All the great branches of the Mississippi
debouebe within convenient distances of the Ohio mouth,
and thus when these seventy-five miles of canal are cut
through Virginia, the whole of the vast navigation of the
Mississippi is put into immediate communication with
Hampton Roads. A committee of the National Board of
Trade have been examining the matter, and have reported
strongly in favour of the undertaking. They recommend
the work as of the highest importance, and advise that
Congress should be asked for aid. The cost is
estimated at 40,000,000 dols., and the time for its coin.

THE AMERICAN INDIANS.

The New York papers state that several of 63 Indian
Peace Commissioners had a Council at the end of
August with the Cheyennes and Araphoes, at Camp
Supply, Indian territory. The sight is described as most
imposing. A large number of chiefs were present, and
2,000 men, women, and children. The Council lasted two
hours, and was very satisfactory, some of the chiefs making
pacific speeches. The Indians killed seven hundred
buffaloes in one week, within ten miles of the place of
meeting. Information had been received at Washington,
that the Indians in Arizona, hnd attacked the mail en
route from Prescott. Two soldiers were killed, the mail
rider wounded, and the mail, containing 18,000 dollars and
many letters, was lost.

THE CROP 3 IN AMERICA.

The crops in some parts of- America appear to have
suffered a good deal from the drought. The heat has been
excessive, and numerous deaths from sunstroke are
reported. St. Louis seems to have been particularly
unfortunate in this respect, four deaths being reported on
the 23rd August, and seven on the 19th. Rain is wanted
everywhere. In parts of Maryland the farmers despair el
getting even half a crop of corn, the potatoe vines are
parched, and the tobacco very mu:.:11 injured. Cotton in
some places is too far advanced to be affected, but in
other places rust has been produced by the drought. The
r g icultural reports skew that in Illinois, the great corn
producing State of the West, the average estimate falls 30
per cent. below that of season. Indiana, which comes next
in the list of corn-growing States, is not much better, while
Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota rate from 20 to 30
per cent below last year. The Now England States range
from 10 to 15 per cent. below; while Texas, Kansas,
and Arkansas, are all better than last year. In
1868 Illinois and Indiana alone produced a fourth of the
crop of the whole country. Taking the average of the
whole of the cotton growing states, cotton, it is thought,
will chew an increase, while potatoes promise a large and
good crop, and the General prospects of the harvest of
1869 must depend in a great measure on the continuance
of the drought.

LODGERS WANTED.

The lodgers of Lambeth continue to regard their
newly-acquired political rights with the most sublime
indifference. Either they arc disappointed at their
ill-success last year, or do not value their new acqui-
sition at its proper price ;. certain it is that there is
a woeful falling off in the number of claimants. At
the last registration there were ],2GO applicants
out of 8,000 qualified lodgers, and of these
only four hundred proved successful. This year
only 294 claims have been sent in ; and of this small
number it is to be presumed that a certain propor-
tion will fail. It looks as if the enfranchised lodger
will soon become an extinct animal in Lambeth.

FEVER 11 AISING.

The history of Stephen's Court is another admir-
able example of the way in which sanitary matters
are managed in this civilised land. Stephen's
Court is in the metropolitan district of Christ
Church, Marylebone. Some time ago it w.is noticed
by the medical officer, Dr. Whitmore, as being unfit
for human habitation. I\ °thing, however, was
done, except adopting the remarkably health-giving
precaution of cutting off the water supply. Tho
place became inexpressibly foul, fever set in, spread
with formidable rapidity, and numerous deaths
followed. Even this terrible warning has
not brought improvement. Stephen's - court
still remains in ita original glory ; and the
fever is rampant, awaiting the time wlien
the convenience of the local authorities will permit
them to sweep away the squalid place. The "Board,"
which has the power to compel the owner of
Stephen's-court to put it in an inhabitable condition,
is not, it appears, roused to exertion by a fatal attack
of disease. How, then, can any number of reports,
present or to come, achieve anything ? It is
some satisfaction to find that the mortuary
of this parish will soon be open. As
no fee will be charged, the poorest may thus be
decently buried ; whereas at present it is common
enough for bodies to remain unburied for eight or
ten days, simply because there is no one able or
willing to pay for the funeral; and the corpses,
lying in over-crowded rooms, continue to spread
pestilence. As we cannot, it seems, prevent our
poor from dying off, it is at all events a good thing
to get them out of the way as soon as they are
dead.

A NEFARIOUS TRADE BETWEEN FATHER AND SON.—
George Hammacott, miller, living at 2, Compton-cottages,
Islewortb, was charged with receiving a gold watch, part
of a gold chain, and a brooch, altogether valued at £9 10s.
(well knowing them to have been stolen) from his son
William Hammacott, who now stands on remand for steal-
ing a large quantity of jewellery, the property of,his mas-
ter, Mr. Samuel, jeweller, of 49, Strand.
The chief evidence against the prisoner was that of his
second son, George Hammacott, a lad of 13 years of age,
who stated his brother William (now on remand) declared
that the watch Lad been given to him as a present from
his master because he found a diamond ring value £BO in a
dust bin. The father consequently essayed to "take care"
of the watch, although he was aware his son William
had been previously sentenced to seven days on
a charge of stealing some flowers. A silver watch had
been given to the witness by his brother William, whose
injunctions were that witness should not tell his father;
but the lad, on hearing that his brother was in custody,
told his father of this, but he declined to inform the police
concerning the matter.
William Rudd, F 6J, searched the prisoner's house, and
found the property mentioned; and Gecrgo Littlefield,
division detective, apprehended the prisoner at Isleworth,
who, on being charged,'said ho "expected some one down
soon to see him."

Mr. Flowers remanded the prisoner until tho same day
fixed for the hearing of the further examination of William
Ilammacett.
