MISCELLANEOUS.

The Eclectic Review has several interesting sub-
jects among its contents this month. The first of
these is the life of Dr. Kitto, of whose career a
very interesting account is given. His last illness
was brought on by overwork of the brain. Though
originally possessed of an excellent constitution,
he destroyed it by excessive and unremitting
mental exertion. At one time his hours for work
extended from four in the morning till nine at
night. The biographer renders full justice to his
literary abilities and earnest piety. " The Arts
of the Middle Ages" is a criticism on a recently
published work on medieval art, translated from
the French. It is of course a mere outline of the
subject, which is a most extensive one, with a
long catalogue of eminent names. Setting altoge-
ther aside the great painters and sculptors of those
gifted epochs in the lower walks of art,
Benvenuto Cellini, Bernard Palissy, and many
other followers of what are termed " useful arts,"
are not to be forgotten. There are, as the writer
here remarks, ample materials for a history of these
arts and their artists. There are some papers on
theological subjects, which are usually to be found
in this review.—Tait's Edinburgh Magazine opens
with some just remarks on the Treaty of Paris. It
is followed by "An Ode to Sunshine," a somewhat
ambitious performance, which is not very success-
ful. " Grace Dorrien," a love story, is continued.
A paper on " Pets, and What they Cost," falls
into the very old mistake of supposing that those
who patronise the animal tribes must of necessity
be uufeelina towards their fellow-creatures, and
vice versa. °There are articles on the American
Government and the Syrian Land, and also the
first part of an old English story.—SharPe'6 London
Magazine presents its usual variety of light and
agreeable reading. The chief features in the num-
ber before us are the continuations of Silverpen's tale
of " The Holy Horues,"and of A. W. Cole's " History
of the Adventures of Lorimer Littlegood." The
latter is illustrated by the skilful pencil of George
Cruikshank. Three new serials have recently made
their appearance, under the titles of The Oxford
and Cambridge Review, The Train, and The Idler.
The first of these generally presents a most attrac-
tive title of contents, but the articles do not always
come up to the reader's expectations. However,
it will, no doubt, improve with time, and mean-
while is quite equal to many older serials. The
Train and The Idler, as their names imply, are of
a very similar character. Designed merely to
amuse a passing hour, they only seek to give a va-
riety of entertainment, among which the generality
of readers may find something to their taste.
Of the two, The Idler appears to be the
best. Newton's London Journal, and the
Mechanic's Magazine, are both entirely de-
voted to practical purposes. Patentees and
those interested in the progress of scientific inven-
tions will find Newton's Journal afford them much
information, 'while the M echanic's Magazine is of a
more elaborate character, giving articles on elec-
trieity and mechanical locomotion, with illustrative
Woodcuts. it le publitled weekly ead, monthly.

acphail's Edinburgh Journal and the Church-
man's Magazine are both of a serious character.
The former is a long-established serial of the Scotch
Church. The Churchman's Magazine has many
generally interesting topics, among them a paper
on the recent astronomical controversy. Le Follet
offers its usual attractions to all the devotees of
fashion. A double sheet of spring walking cot.
tumes accompanies the ordinary plates.

Spirit of the Public Journals.

(From the Morning Herald of this c 104.)
If we are any longer to regard the British House
of Commons as an assemblage of rational men, we
cannot regard the votes of Thursday night as the
deliberate result of a consideration of the facts
knowa and admitted respecting the fall of Kars ;
for to any clear understanding those facts point but
in one direction. To us it seems to be as absurd,
on the face of the evidence supplied by the blue
book, to vote energy and foresight in the Govern-
ment in the conduct of the campaign in Asia, as to
say that evidence as direct and clear as the Sun in
heaven affords no guidance in human affairs. We
must, therefore, seek to account for this strange
division on other grounds.
It has been urged that Parliament (and it is as-
sumed the country also) is averse now to opening
up the question of the war policy of the Govern.
ments, and is disposed to apply the principle of
bygones being bygones to the military calamities of
the past two years. The motive assigned for this
generous behaviour is not to us intelligible, and it
is obvious that the indulgence of such a motive
would result in the removal of all Ministerial re-
sponsibility. If, because the particular state of
laffairs in which a Government has exhibited inca-
pacity, negligence, or treachery has passed away,
Parliament for that reason is to abstain from pro-
nouncing upon such conduct, then we can only say
that Parliament deliberately abnegates one of its
most valuable functions, and inflicts intolerable
mischief on our constitutional system.
While military operations are going forward,
while the war is actually going on, it has ever been
the policy of a wise opposition—although in the late
war the Whigs thought otherwise—to abstain from
embarrassing the Government, reserving the right
to traverse their policy, to examine their conduct
in every particular, when those operations have
closed. But if we are to accept the views of some
people—views, we regret to say, supported by a
vote—we are to surrender this right ; and having
avoided inquiry during the war from a motive of
patriotism, to give it up when peace is concluded
from a motive of generosity. This course may ap-
pear very satisfactory to some members of the
Lower House ; but we may remind those gen-
tlemen they will 'not find their constituencies
so easily persuaded of its wisdom or its propriety.
Englishmen desire, at all events, to know what
has been done with their money, and what equi-
valent they have for the sacrifices they have
made. They wish to know how those who bad
the conduct of the war managed it in every par-
ticular—whether faith has been kept with our
allies, and the national honour upheld—whether,
in short, "energy and foresight" characterised the
councils of her Majesty's Ministers. It will not do
for those who represent our constituencies in Par-
liament to say " Certainly there were occurrences
in the war which bore a doubtful aspect, and which
Ministers could not quite account for, but we
thought it better now that the war is over to say
nothing about them, to do unto others as we would
he done by—in short, to let bygones be bygones."
We rather think the constituencies to whom such
language may be addressed will know how to esti-
mate at its proper value the charity of such repre-
sentatives. It was evident, however, on Thurs-
day night, that whatever value Lord Palmerston
might be supposed to place on the excellent motives
to which he and his colleagues owe something,
the Premier thought it necessary to exert himself
to meet the trenchant attacks of the opposition.
The tactics of the noble lord were, indeed, worthy of
his reputation. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe had
been delivered over to satisfy the public demand
for a victim when the news of the disaster of Kara
first reached this country. As the public mind
became better informed a certain reaction took
place in the ambassador's favour. It was, there-
fore, necessary to introduce another scape-goat, and
Omer Pacha was selected. Well, whatever Lord
Stratford is responsible for has been clearly made
out ; the strategical dispositions of the Turkish
commander have had justice done them ; so Lord
Palmerston, who, with a majority in prospect, cau
also afford to be generous, praises Lord Stratford,
lets down Omer easily, and fixes on the unhappy
Paella of Erzeroum as a victim no one would think
it worth while to defend, but sufficiently important
to load with the ignominy of the fall of Kars.
The Minister may chuckle at his success; but we
can tell him that the acquittal of Government in
the matter of Kars will not convince the nation
that energy and foresight distinguished the con-
duct of the war, and have contributed to the con-
clusion of peace.
The peace is universally regarded with dissatis-
faction in this country. We would commend to
his lordship's attention the speeches delivered yes-
terday at the meeting of the Common Council of
London to consider the propriety of addressing the
Crown on the termination of hostilities. The peace
was welcomed, it is true ; but why ? Because it
" has put an end to a mismanaged war"—this was
the sentiment of almost every speaker who ad-
dressed the meeting, expressed in one shape or an-
other. The terms of peace are eminently unsatis-
factory—the manner in which it has been obtained
every way objectionable. But so manifest has been
the incapacity of the " modern Chatham" and his
colleagues to conduct the war that an ignominious
peace is accepted as the lesser of two evils.

UNITY JOINT-STOCK BANKING
ASSOCIATION.

A splendid banquet was given yesterday by the direc.
tors of this institution, in celebration of the opening of
the bank. The dinner was of the most recherchi cka.
racter, and was supplied with that profusion which cha-
racterises the London Ta►ern. J. J. Mechi, Esq., the
governor, was in the chair, and above 280 gentlemen
sat down to the magnificent repast.
The usual loyal toasts having been proposed and re.
sponded to most enthusiastically,

Colonel CROFT replied to the toast of "The Army
and Navy."
The CHAIRMAN then proposed "The Lord Mayor
and the Corporation of London." He protested against
the Government measure, which was not one for the
reform, but which tended to the utter annihilation of the
great corporation d London.
Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Ross responded to the
toast, and paid a well-merited passieg compliment to the
Lord Mayor as a gentleman and a scholar. (Cheers.)
The Hon. F. CAMPBELL, amidst loud cheering, rose to
propose "Success to the Unity Banking Association,"
and proceeded in an able speech to describe the vast ad-
vantages which banks and other institutions founded on
the mutual principle conferred on the public at large.
In the year 1834 Mr. Gil hart bad established the London
and Westminster Bank, and the attempt was at first
viewed with obloquy. In the year 1835 Sir Robt. Peel
declared, in his place in Parliament, that he considered
the principle of joint-stock banks as one of the most
valuable inventions of modern times, and in 1844 he car-
ried through his measure in regard to joint-stock banks.
The Unity Joint-stock Mutual Banking Association
was founded for the purpose of establishing mutual
banking, and thereby securing to customers a personal
benefit hitherto unknown in the operations of a bank.
Commencicg with a capital of 300,000/., subscribed by
549 shareholders, and with 150,0001. paid up, the Unity
Bank would give half its profits to its shareholders, and
would dispose of the remaining half in paying to the
customers of the bank additional interest on their ba-
lances, estimated according to such profits. By these
means the interest of the proprietary and the custom-
ers of the bank would become mdentified, and their
co-operation in promoting and extending its
permanently secured. This was the
nubeunwsitienpdersig wncipolueldinbveolved in the Unity Bank. Since the
year 1834 to the beginning of the present year 8 joint-
stock banks all based upon the same principle, had
been established.
Their success had been uni-
formly great. The commencing paid-up capital of sof
thenietroplitan joint-stock banks established prior to 1835
was as follows :—The London and Westminster,
50,0001.; the London Joint-stock, 60,0007.; the Royal
British Bank, 50,0001.; the Unity Bank, 150,0001.
The hon. gentleman having entered into a variety of
details, concluded by proposing " Success to the Unity
Bank."
The CHAIRMAN returned thanks, and having referred
to the two institutions of the Unity Banking and Fire
Associations, concluded by proposing the health of the
gentleman who was the master mild in the affair and
its iidomitable founder, Mr. Baylis. (Cheers.)
Mr. BAYLIS, in a speech of extraordinary detail and
length, entered most fully into the objects and intentions
of the promoters of these institutions.
Dr. LLOYD proposed " The Health of the Trustees,
the Hon. W. F. Campbell, Rear-Admiral Sir Watkin
Owen Pell, and Sir W. C. Dalzell, Bart.," and the toast
was acknowledged by Mr. Campbell.
The CHAIRMAN gave " Mr. George Chambers, the
managing director."
Mr. Clianietts, in his reply, recapitulated many of the
statements made by previous speakers, in a very long
address, full of technicalities, which were not, we believe,
very interesting to the large body of ladies who graced
the gallery. Many of the speeches were singelarly ela-

THE BUDGET.
Mr. GLYN asked whether the right hon. gentleman
the Chancellor of the Exchequer could name the day
when it would be in his power to make his financial
statement to the house ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—It
might possibly be in my power to make my financial
statement before Whitsuntide, but the house is aware
that the calculation of the amended ways and means
cannot be made until all the estimates of the year are
completed and laid on the table. The amendment of the
estimates since the peace has been signed has occupied
more time than I anticipated ; those, however, of the
War Department have been completed, sent to the Trea-
sury, and approved, and they will shortly be laid on the
table. In fact, the entire estimates are ready, except
one portion, which will be presented in a few days. The
whole time of Parliament up to the Whitsuntide holidays
being occupied, and it being inconvenient to fix Friday,
the loth, the day on which the house will resume busi-
ness, I propose to bring forward my financial statement
on the following Monday night.
The motion for the adjournment of the housetill Mon-
day next was then agreed to.

Lord EBRINGTON was of opinion that they should
have every security that none but trustworthy persons
should be appointed.
Mr. MASSEY believed that there was already suffi-
cient protection, and that to pursue the matter further
would be vexatious.
The amendment was negatived without a division,
and the clause agreed to.
On clause 10 being proposed,
Sir J. PAKINGTON said that where public money
was paid and received, it was only fair and right to have
security from the Government that it was properly ex-
pended. There could be no objection to a system of in-
spection, but it was desirable that an explanation should
be given as to how the inspection was to be exercised
and how far it was to be carried. An occasional inspec-
tion would, be thought, be quite sufficient, and being of
that opinion he did not see that there would be anything
like work enough to occupy the time and attention of
three permanent inspectors.
Mr. C. FORSTER objected so strongly to the grant
of money from the Consolidated Fund, and also to the
system of inspection, that he was determined to divide
the committee against the clause.
Sir F. BARING believed that the real principle of the
bill was to get the money with the view of getting the
inspection ; and he objected to any such mode of carry-
ing a bill through this house. It was wrong to use the
Consolidated Fund for the purpose of tempting the mem-
bers for counties to adopt a measure which, but for that
temptation, he did not believe they would ever agree to.
The whole principle of the bill depended upon the pay-
ment of the money out of the consolidated Fund, and
he hesitated not to say that whilst in the matter of in•
spection he would have no mercy upon them who took the
money, for if they took it they did so with the cordition
that those who declined to take the money ought to be ex-
erupt from inspection. He doubted very much the advi-
sability of cL•aeiae upon the Consolidated Fund fir local
purposes merely. °Those who required more policeshould
pay for then without distributing the co t over the whole
country. If local burdens were fairly imposed there
ought not to be any demand on the Consolidated Fund ;
but an impressioa prevailed that those burdens were not
fairly imposed, and that being the case, it might be
necessary that the whole question of focal taxation
should be revised. The fact ...ems, he feared the right
hon. gentleman was by this bill opening up a very diffi-
cult question for the Char:teener of the Exchequer here-
after. The boroughs 'wished. neither money nor inspec-
tion, and he believed that Portsmouth and Southamp-
ton were amongst the places which repudiated both. It
was said that the Home Secretary was responsible for
the public peace, and in that opinion he quite agreed ;
but he could not therefore understand why this general
system of inspection was required. In em.clusion he
begged to say that lie objected altogether to a grant of
money from the Consolidated Fund, and upuu that
ground should oppose the clause.
Mr. WILLIAMS said it had been proved that the
counties in which the police had been established were
no better prot:icted in life and property than those
counties whiai had no -police. The bill proposed to
remit 300,600/. local 'axation, and was, so far, a bribe
to the country przty. The Irish police cost half a
million of money, and the police for England would cost
me eh more.. 'pubiclEle had a strong objection to the applica-
tion of pubic money to such a purpose.
Sir G. GREY said he believed that less than one-half
the counties had established a police. Since transporta-
tion was abolished he considered that the rural districts
had a right to expect that some share of the burden of
the police should be borne by the Government. The
prosecution and detection of offenders was not a local
interest ; part of it should be defrayed, therefore, from
the public funds, in the same manner as a certain share
of the expense and removal of convicted criminals was
at present, As regarded inspectors, he (Sir G. Grey)
should prefer tae to three, and he thought that the for-
mer number might be sufficient, He thought it was
rig the inspection should not be partial but general.
Mr. DEEDES fully agreed with the right hon. gen-
tleman the member for Portsmouth. On the part of the
county be (Mr. Deedes) represented he rejected any
grant of money from the Consolidated Fund. He had
the greatest objection to the appointment of inspectors,
because he believed that it would cause the production
of contradictory reports, and create great confusion.
Mr. MUNTZ said inspectors would be always finding
country fault whether there was cause or no cause. He protested
against boroughs being included in the bill, and thought
the Word "borough" should he altogether omitted.
Mr. RICE said a great portion of the property of the
wee protected and paid nothing.
lIENLEY said the amendment was a just one,
„
considering the objection of so many parties to take any
in-
spection o
ment of his noble friend met the difficulty by making in-
money- It was a very virtuous feeling, and the amend-
ptional. The secretary of state, however,

The CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER explained
that at present a foreign insurance company might esta-
blish an insurance office next door to an English insur-
ance company, and effect insurances on similar terms but
without being subject to the duty to which the policies
of the English company were liable. This foreign com-
pany could be only looked upon as carrying on a contra-
band system of business, and it was therefore right that
the Euglish companies slou.d be protected in their legi-
timate business. He thought that the experiment of
the present bill was worthy of a trial. He did not think
that the objections to the measure were well founded ;
and certainly, in his opinion, it did not interfere with
the question of a reduction of rates, which might be
hereafter considered.
Mr. CROSSLEY thought that the bill was worth a
trial, because it would not place matters in a worse con-
dition than they now were.
Mr. WILKINSON thought if the bill passed i,t; would
oppose obstacles to the reduction of duty.
Mr. VA.NSITTART proposed that the bill should be
deferred until after the budget. If this was not agreed to
he would divide the house.
Mr. DUNCAN was in favour of a reduction of the duty.
The house then divided—

By her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and
extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and

through them—of great importance to the army, navy,
-and others. These telescopes possess such extraordinary
powers that some three and a-half inches, with an extra eye.
piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring,
and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be
seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant,
and an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and al:
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary-
ing from 4 to 6 inches enable us to discover more than the
above, and the Georgian, with his 6 satellites, &c.—The Royal
Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small,
powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which
a person can be seen and known 1 miles distant ; they answer
every putposo on the race-course, and at the opera houses,
country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles.
They are invaluable for shooting, doer-stalking, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful
power. Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the great-
est transparent power. The valuable advantage derived
from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is
preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons aro
enabled to employ their sight at the most minute occu-
pation-- can see with these lenses of a much less magnify.

Deafness—New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an ex-
traordinary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for
deafness, entirely different from all others, to surpass any-
thing of' the kind that has been, or probably ever can be,
produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not per.
ceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at chureb

noises in the ears is entirely removed; and it affords all the
assistance that-. possibly could be desired.-39, Albemarle-

REGULATED ENTHISIASIL—In the second arrondisse'
went of Paris a placard is posted informing the inhabi;
tants that, in order to " regularise" the enthusiasm 0'
the population, collectors will be sent to every house to
receive the subsriptions of 25c. for a testimonial to the
Empress and the Imperial Prince.

This bill went committee.
On the Ist clause,
Lord ELCHO moved an amendment to the effect,
that before any sales of pictures Parliament should know
what were to be disposed of. Hitherto the National
Gallery had not been well conducted, and for a long
series of years its affairs had been much mismanaged.
Pictures, valueless, had been purchased at enormous
prices, and valuable pictures sold for nothing. The con-
stitution of the board under this bill would be inconsis-
tent, impracticable, and anomalous. (Adjourn, adjourn.)
The bill had evidently been drawn up under the influ-
ence of the director, The "keeper" was to be " direc-
tor " at a salary of 2,0001. a year, and that was the
only practical change. After a committee of that house
had recommended an entire change in the constitution
of the establishment, the measure was a perfect farce.
Mr. LAYARD suggested that there might be a power
of giving away pictures to provincial galleries, °ape.
cially as those which were rejected by the National Gal-
lery would not he likely to fetch much.
Mr. WILSON said the trustees had this power at pre-
sent, and sometimes exercised it. But the clause was de-
signed to facilitate sales. As to the amendment pro-
posed, the house could hardly exercise a judgment as to
the pictures to be sold. The best course would be to
leave the responsibility with the trustees.
Mr. GLADSTONE said there was a natural jealousy
of the management of the gallery, and he thought no pic-
tures should be sold without laying lists of them before
Parliament.
Mr. WILSON :wanted to this suggestion,
Sir WILLOUGHBY feared this bill would open
a door to a great deal of jobbery. It appeared to him
that the trustees would have the power of purchasing
pictures abroad or at home. Out of what funds
Mr. WILSON—The funds voted by Parliament. The
director would not make a practice of purchasing pie.
tures, but would have the power of so doing in any case
that might occur in which it was desirable. Ins' ances
of that kind bad occurred.
