RUPTURES.-BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT.

WITITE'S MOC-MAIN LEVER TRUSS
(Perfected and Exhibited in the Great Exhibitions
of 1851 and 1862) is allowed by upwards of Five Hundred
Medical men to be the most effective invention in
the curative treatment of HERNIA. The use of a steel
spring, so often hurtful in its effects, is hero avoided a
soft bandage being worn round the body, while the requi-
site resisting power is supplied by the Moc-Main Pad and
Patent Lever, fitting with so much ease and closeness that
it cannot be detected, and may be worn during sleep. A
descriptive circular may be had, and the truss, which cat-
rot fail to fit, forwsrdel by post, on the circumference of
the body, two inches below the hips, being sent to the
manufacturer, _

THE COURSE.

The Course, like the ground, has been so often described
that one can hardly say anything new about it. If any.
thing distinguished Wednesday from preceding anniver-
saries, it was not the addition of any new or striking epi-
sodes, but the absence of many familiar incidents.
Never was there so quiet and so sober a Derby ;
seldom has there been so little of the " larking " and
riotous fun supposed to be inseparable from the occa-
sion. "Aunt Sally" is losing popularity ; the race of
tumblers, mountebanks, and conjurors is becoming extent ;
there are no workers of prodigies to take the place of the
men who used to break stones with their clenched fists, or
lift huge weights with their little fingers. At a period
when the poorest costermonger "puts something" on the
favourite, it would be absurd to expect that any surplus
should be left tor thimbleriggers and cardsharpers. Spe-
culation on horses has become so universal that the
cheaper and less exciting forms of gambling lose their
interest. Imperceptibly, but surely, the spectacle
is becoming different from that on which Mr. Frith col.
lected the materials of a picture which may serve to
remind the holiday makers of 1880 of the costumes cf
their parents. The interest of the sight, however,
consists, not in the variety of the details, but in its
grandeur as a whole—in the fact that nowhere else in the
world is there gathered so vast a concourse of human beings
of all ranks and conditions. The trivial episodes of the scene
are forgotten as soon as the eye ranges over the immense
masses of black, between which flows the green racecourse.
and the ear is deafened by the -Babel of the Stand House
and the Ring.

THE CONTAGIOUS DISEASES ACT.

The association whose object it has been to obtain
the extension of the Contagious Diseases Act to the
civil population, feeling secure in the thought
that the Government would support an ex-
tension of the measure, gave up any further
pursuit of the subject some time since. It has
now been called once again into action by the an-
nouncement that the whole question is to be referred
to a select committee of the Iloase of Commons.
Meetings are being held, and information is being
obtained, to show the feeling of the country, and the
true bearing of facts upon the matter. An oppo-
sition is also organised, chiefly proceeding from the
refuges, which is endeavouring to-enlist the religious
feelings of the country against the proposed reform.
In this the refuges are not altogether successful.
Several bishops, deans, and many clergymen have
given in their names to the society, and Lord Russell,
with several other eminent statesmen, lead the way
in counDoliing the alteration of the 2a«-. 11; lo ro.tiett
that if the measure were passed, penitentiaries would
lose their hold. The society alleges, however, that
they would be of still more use. Women would
come under religious instruction in the hospitals, and
might, if they wished to leave their lives of vice, be
handed over to the penitentiaries.

THE DERBY.

. „
The ninetieth Derby. will be known for its pleasant-
ness. Dark races there have been ; a cold Wednesday,
with falls of st-ow, there has been ; ruinous—desperately
ruinous—days there have been ; but no great plunging,
no great cold, no great heat, no serious accidents are
known to have marked the Derby of 18G9. Royalty
attended—the Princess of Wales for the first time ; lords
were there in plenty ; members of the House of Commons,
the professional, the merchant, the tradesman, the beggar,
and the thief, all these were, as usual, represented, and
the day passed off very jollily indeed.

HER► MAJESTY.

BALMORAL, May 24.
This being her Majesty's 50th birthday she spent
it quietly with the Royal Family.
Her Majesty invested Prince Arthur with the
Order of the Thistle, and Prince Leopold with the
Garter.

The Prince and Priucess of Wales went to
Epsom races yesterday.

THE LATE SIR WENTWORTH DILKE.—WO be-
lieve that the remains of the late Sir Wentworth Dilke
will reach London, from St. Petersburg, on Friday, and
that the interment will ,tke place at the Konsal-green
Cemetery, on Al onday, at 12 o'clock.
It appears that the report last Saturday of the
arrival the Essex from Australia with £72,000
was erroneous. She has been 88 days out, detained
most probably by the easterly winds lately preva-
lent.

ROSSINI'S LIST Wont:-.--All the world, musical
and otherwise, are crowding, in Paris and Loudon, to
listen to Rossini's last great we rk, the "Masse So!enuelie."
In. regard to this sublime prod action (the farewell to his
d reason.,
eaatst its
eillusetrreioetis centCi action. nlp o
ser), there has, for ob-
vious All the music pub-
lishers have been in the field . about it. Very large sums
are spoken of as having been p aid even for limited copy-
right. The important houses s-'f Rieordi and Co., muiic
publishers of Milan, and 1-131 m an (another well-known
spectlator), whose large veutturt .s, and larger success, are
well-known, have competed. Sums like 75,000 f., 95,000 f.,
anl 170,600 f. are mentioned sts pa, 1 for proprietary rights
in different directions. It fin now definitely-understood
that this great work is secured for England, the
proprietor of the copyright (far purposes of publication in
England) being Mr. Thome:4 -•?lhappell. Rossini's Mass
has been produced by the three, 'ors of the United Opera,
London, in a locale (St..Taraes's 1 lad). that will lend to
this "Mesas Solennellq," its due eft jets of fullest majesty.
Nothing will therefore exceed the i iterest that will attach
to this great production when inns traaed by the talents
of the first vocal artistes ; when the • claurnses are sung by
a body of choristers who are unriva, 'led And when the
grand orchestral effects rest in the lieu ids Of the fine band

A QUARREL IN HIGH QUARTERS.

The Record, which is always skilful in finding out
the highest and noblest motives for conduct which
seems erratic, has discovered that the reason why
Lord Russell has quarrelled with the Government
is, that Lord Hyde was chosen to fight the Ministe-
rial battle at Brecon instead of Lord Amberley. The
same trustworthy authority goes on to say that " the
Government shew no disposition to march through
Coventry with such an ornament to their junior
attacht% as this ultra-Malthusian and Positivist'
young nobleman."' The journal which hailed a Pela-
gian Premier as the man of God because he ap-
pointed Low ChurCh bishops, would naturally
ascribe an important political action to sordid reasons.

MR. SPURGEON ON FANCY BAZAARS.

Mr. Spurgeon approves of fancy bazaars. Ho
even thinks those persons Pharisaical who object to
them. He argues that it is not everyone who can
give money to a charitable object, but there are
many who can give time and labour in the shape of
worsted work. This is true enough, and against
such persons no one can say a word. The real
objection is that a vast quantity of useless rubbish
being sold at a high price, charity, so far
RS the purchasers are concerned, takes the
character of a bargain, and that usually a very bad
one. Either the purchaser buys what is worth
buying, and then there is no charity at all in the
matter so far as he is concerned, or he buys what is
not worth buying, and then the time and labour
spent in the production is lost, from the politico-
economical point of view. But the economists are
not likely to have much influence in the matter.
Bazaars will continue, though girl graduates should
have to pass an examination in all the philosophers
from Adam Smith to Stuart Mill.

THE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT.

The public business of Italy is once more suffering from
its chronic disease—the incurable laziness of the deputies
who are chosen to manage it. Whilst the weather is bad
the Italian Parliament is pretty well attended ;
but no stoner does the Southern sun put forth
its spring-time beams than the members of the
Chamber, who have a free pass over all the railways
in the kingdom, disperse in all directions, leaving public
affairs to look to themselves. Year after year the busi-
ness of the country is left undone, or half done, for the
law requires that one more than half the entire number
of members must be present to form a quorum, and the
deputies will not attend. The names of the absentees are
posted in the Official Gazette, but this is no punishment,
for that great corrector and reformer, " public opinion," is
yet in its infancy in Italy.
London, England, 1869-05-27

THE WEATHER.

The weather is generally the first thing described. It
was simply beautiful. During the afternoon it was so
entirely unexceptional, that if one could place the
slightest reliance upon the prating of those pulmonic
meteorologists, who try to persuade us that our
climate is all fogs and east v. inds, we must have sup-
posed that the scene of the afternoon's amusement
was some "balmy region of the south," where suns are
ever bright and winds are ever soft. This, however, was
only after noon. If an English May day is often worse
than its word, it is sometimes better than its promise ;
and so it was on Wednesday. The morning was dull and
chilly, not to say gloomy and cold. The clouds gradually
dispersed, however, the wind moderated andleft people to
enjoy themselves thoroughly and without any discomfort.

THE UNITED STATES.

Chief Justice Chase has decided that the Statute of
Limitations applies to all cases where money held by
American officials was given up to the Confederate
Government in 1861. Postmasters and others who gave
up their funds to the Confederacy at the outbreak of the
civil war will not be liable to refund the sums.
London, England, 1869-05-27

THE ABOLITION OF PATENT LAWS.

The Patent Laws are one continual worry. The
public would not be unjust to an inventor, would not
get cheapness by allowing any one to step in and use
the time, brains, and money of another in the pro-
duction of commodities. And yet it can hardly protect
one inventor without injuring his fellow discoverers.
It was thought the question was virtually settled
when a high price was put on the acquire-
ment of a patent. But this has rather increased
the anomaly than otherwise, for poor men
can rarely get the benefit of an invention. Reformers
seem to have been disgusted with. the matter
altogether, and propose free trade. But inventors
already protected are much opposed to this course.
Mr. Macfie is to move a resolution abolishing mono-
poly altogether. Members of the Inventors' Institute
and others have waited upon the Attorney-General
urging their objections to this motion ; and Sir
Robert Collier told them that, though he could not
speak on behalf of the Government, he was,
personally, against making an invention of one man
the property of the public.
London, England, 1869-05-27

THE HILL

As the day advanced the crest of the hill became illumi-
nated with the gilt•lettered refectories of the gingerbread
vendors, without whom no holiday festival of the people
could be considered complete. Tll recognition of the pro-
minent place to be assigned to the Volunteers in the great
gathering on the Surrey Downs, the " Rifle Saloons"
occupied a conspicuous position on the hills. Those
in search of curiosities would probably be more
than satisfied by gazing on a picture of a' ferocious
mastiff held in gentle durance by a smiling gentleman,
even if the bewildering legend beneath of "The Spotted
Twin Sisters, born at Egham, and exhibited by their
mother," did not further induce them to inquire within.
At an adjoining tent was to be seen " A Marvellous Freak
of Nature," described by the highly imaginative
exhibitor as " The Bodiless Womarn, and only
specimen of the kind ever brought to England," and
in which apparent mystery the familiar optical
illusion of " The Sphinx " was not very carefully
enshrouded. The itinerants who beguile the in-
tervals between the races were of the old type and
pattern. Conspicuously amongst them came the troop of
" nigger minstrels," led by the familiar street personage
who represents Punch, and who, adorned with nose and
spectacles, chews such a curiously applied knowledge of
part-singing, and who, if local legends are to be believed, is
a respectable householder in Kentish Town, and a prominent
member of a ritualistic choir when his secular duties are
over for the week. More nigger minstrels, whose lays are
of a time when the " Christy's " were unknown, and
vagrant singers, who rely on strength of lungs rather than
appropriateness of ditty, make up the vocal throng who
besiege the occupants of carriages with their noisy impor-
tunities. The extension of the photographic system was
exemplified by a portable camera, which, with a woman
for the operator, took unanticipated groups of the inmates
of various carriages. These seemed to find a rapid sale.
The general amusements on the hill were of the
old familiar kind. The sharp crack of the
rifle, at a penny per shot, was to be heard
constantly throughout the day. Portable ninepins car-
ried about in a box were revealed for the gratification
of those who believed in skittles as a necessary adjunct to
human happiness ; a clever female prestidigitateur chewed
the juggler's sleight of hand in substituting pence for half-
crowns in paper purses ; the stilt-walkers took advantage
of their elevation to carry their caps into the faces of the
loftiest amongst the spectators and the assertors of the
right of " Turbary," or of the privilege of going upon the
soil of another and digging turf, and carrying away the
same, seemed to he fully aware of their especial immu-
nities.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(7hts Day.)

LORD MAYOR'S COURT.
THE GREAT HIGGS' FRAUDS.

This was a case raising a point of considerable impor-
tance, in which the plaintiff, who is a builder, sought to at-
tach moneys alleged to be in the hands of the defendant, an
auctioneer, arising out of the sale of the furniture of Ben-
jamin Higgs, whose notorious frauds and forgeries upon
the Great Central Gas Consumers' Company caused such
great excitement some timo
_ _

Mr. Poole said he sold the furniture at Teddington upon
the instruction of the Guarantee Society. lie had no
money in hand.

Mr. Gibson stated that he had done certain work. He
knew Higgs' house at Tide-end, Teddington, and had
seen the furniture in it. Ho believed the furniture be-
cnged to Higgs.

In to-day's sitting the Constituent Cortes closed
the discussion on the Constitution by the adoption
of the remaining clauses. There will be no sitting
to-morrow in consequence of its being a fete. On
Friday, however, the solemn promulgation of the
Constitutional Charter will take place at the meet-
ing of the Cortes, when the leaders of the different
political parties will make speeches appropriate to
the occasion.

The Republicans of the four provinces of Anda-
lusia, Estremadura, Alicante, and Murcia, intend

sign a federal pact.

The introduction of an additional article to the
Constitution suspending the clause organising
the judiciary until the organic law regu-
lating the tribunals shall have been sanc-

the majority of the commission. The matter has
been settled by a compromise, but Senor Romero
Orbz, the Minister of Justice, has given in his re-
signation.

DU. CUMMING AGAIN.

There is not one of the sporting prophets which
,can compare with Dr. Cumming in unshaken ,elf-
confidence. It is nothing to him that he prophesied
the end of the world for 1867, and that here we are
still merrily spinning round the sun. It is nothing
to him that a few Sundays ago he made the
alleged earthquake in Lancaihire a text to prove that
the destruction of all things is close at hand,
end that this earthquake turned out to be-a hoax,
perpetrated by a silly fellow upon the .3lanehester
many persons
journals. The doctor is still as confident as eteg, and
as
go to listen to him as ever. He
has just
been down to Alanchester, and has been
insisting, in defiance of all facts—in defiance of the
fact that nations were never so slow in-fighting as
they are now—that this is the time of wars and
rumour:, of wars which is to precede the final
catastrophe. The " sell " about the earthquake
hcs not in the least disconcerted him.
In the winter he considered that the term earth-
quakes in " divers-places " was to be taken literally ;
but now ho interprets it to mean a financial crisis.
The discovery is rather late in tho day, considering
that it is 'now three yea.' s sinco the " earth-
quake " to3k pirce. The value of his inter-
pretations is seriously deteriorated both by .their
tardiness and by their uncertainty. The most remark-
able thing about the matter is, that for once Cardinal
Antal-1(311i and Dr. Cumming are of one mind. The
Cardinal, when he heard that Austria hid given up
the Concordat, exclaimed Casca it monde. The
doctor, without any particular reason, repeats the
equivalent of those words in English, and says,
"The world is going to smash." Antonelli 'had.,
at Innst, from his point of view, some excuse for his

LES EXTREMES SE TOLICHENT.

It has been often noticed that scarcely anyone is
married in Lent. It is not so generally known that
scarcely anyone is married in the Derby week.
Everyone is supposed to be keeping fast during the
former period ; everyone is supposed to be keeping
holiday in the latter. And so it comes to
pass that the Times of to-day has but one English
marriage in its column of hatches, matches, and
despatches.

BURGLARIES AT THE WEST END.—Frodorick Wytre, a
tailor, and William Medealle, a Surrier, both well known
thieves, were brought before Mr. D'Eyncourt by Sergeant
Christopher Gould, 14 0, charged with breaking and en-
tering the dwelling-house, No. 19, Lisle-street, Leicester-
square, and stealing a quantity of property belonging to
Mr. Wells, and Me,kali() was further charged wi►h
being concerned, with a man named Robert Rout-
ledge, now under remand, ia committing a burglary,
at the house of Mr. Timewell, tailor, of No. 18, Sackville-
street, and stealing a quantity of property.

Evidence of the burglary at Mr. Timuwoll's having been
repeated, Thomas Wilson, a cabman, was called, and he
proved that Med:alfe was along with Routledge in his
cab, and that tht.y had a portmanteau with them, and that
when he set them down at No. 13, Old Compton-street,
they "hooked" it up stairs.
Mr. D'E3 ncourt asked the witness what he meant by
"Looked" it?

The witness said that they ran upstairs. (Laughter.),

Mr. D'Eyncourt asked whether they paid him his fare ?
The witness said they did, 6d. in silver and three six-
pennyworth of halfpence, and he looked at the money,
thinking it a small fare. (Laughter.)
Mrs. laa.bella Wells, of Lisle-street, identified Wytre as
having tntered her bsdroom with a candle alight. She
saw him take up her husband's co:A, and she followed him
with a life-preserver, but he got away, an 1 she afterwards
missed a quantty of property.
Upton, 119 B, said he found two knives and a fork,
produced, in the room occupied by Dledcalf and the
knives and forks had been identified by Mrs. Wells.

Sergeant Gould, 14 C, proved apprehending the pri-
soner in bed in a house in Old rye-street, and fin•ling two
skeleton keys, one of which would opm the door in

found sm., more skcle:on keys. Wytre said, " You have
buckled me right this tip,, but do'nt lap too much into
me." On the other prisoner turgl►rs' too!s were found.
