THE CIICRCII IN JAMAICA.

A deputation of gentlemen interested in tne
affairs of Jamaica waited on Wednesday upon Lord
Granville. Their object was to induce the Govern-
ment to extend the policy of disestablishment to
Jamaica. The Clergy Act of 1858 will expire next
December, and it is thought that a favourable oppor-
tunity will then be presented to reconsider the eccle-
siastical position of the island. A memorial was
read by Dr. Underhill giving some statistics as to
the comparative extent and influence of the several
religious bodies in the island, from which it appeared
that, according to the census of 1861, only onc-
eleventh of the population avail themselves of the
services of the Church of England. The
Nonconformists had made three times as
largo a provision for religious worship,
and there were more than two Nonconformists

for every Episcopalian. I; the matter of education,
also the memorial maintained that the Noncon-
formists of Jamaica had completely outstripped the
Episcopalians, and they shewed that the ecclesiatical
charges of the Jamaica establishment exceeded
45,000 annually, while therevenue for 1865-6 shelved
a deficit of £60,000. The Nonconformists further
urged that the position of • the English Church was
substantially the same in Jamaica as in Ireland, and
that the former could be disestablished without any
difficulty. Lord Granville said that he entirely agreed
with the general principles of the deputation. He
had communicated with the Government of Jamaica
on the subject, and could give no specific answer as
to details until ho had received a communication
, from them.

THE REDUCTION OF NEWSPAPER POSTAGE.

The Marquis of Hartington is moving in the
matter of the reduction of newspaper postage. Ile has
ordered inquiries to be made of business men and others
throughout the country as to the probable effect of
the change on correspondence generally and on the
work at the various offices. The Advertiser says
that, under the direction of the principhl officers in
the mail department, a series of experiments is about
to be made upon one of the northern lines with an
improved mail-bag delivery apparatus, by which it is
stated several bags may be rcceived and delivered at
the different stations whilst the trains are at their
ordinary speed, and irrespective of their weight, so
as to meet the difficulty named by the Postmaster-
General as at present existing when the debate took
place in the House of Commons upon Mr. Graves's
motion. The experiments will take place as soon as
the Post Office authorities have had time to fit up
the carriages for the purpose, the use of which has
been readily granted by the railway company.

THE BETTING-ROUSE ACT.

Mr. BRUCE, in reply to Mr. Henry Beaumont, said it
was altogether accurate to say that the Betting-house Act
was enforced. During the last four years there had been
five convictions at least, and the reason there had not been
more was that there was very great difficulty in obtaining
a conviction in consequence of its being necessary to prove
the fact that betting , took place within the house. The
owners of these betting houses wore particularly cautious
to allow no Letting to take place before any strangers,
and therefore the proving the offence was a matter
of great difficulty. There bad, however; been a
conviction for infringing the act within the
last year. The Chief Commissioner of Police
was now engaged in taking steps to suppress all illegal
betting, and in all cases where the necessary evidence
could be obtained it was his intention to press most
strongly for a conviction.

THE IRISH CHURCH.

Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply to Mr. M'Evoy, said that
all prelates that might be appointed before the Ist of
January, 1871, would of course hold their titles
for life; but reap:Tt to those who might be
appointed after tho diseaablishment bill, he believed
that the law was not altogether clear as to the right they
would have to call themselves bishops and cleans of any
particular church, which was not at all desirable should
exist.

THE COLONIAL EPISCOPATE.

Dr. Beckley intends to resign his bishopric on
account of ill health. Nine years of episcopacy in
Sierra Leone is enough for any man, and no doubt
Dr. Deckles will get rewarded by easy but lucrative
preferment at home. It is not stated why Dr.
Alford, Bishop of Victoria, has returned home from
Hong Kong, after having given his diocese only a
little more than a year of episcopal supervision. It
will be remembered that great difficulty was found
in filling up this see when it became vacant. Lord
Granville is likely to find some difficulty in filling
up that of Sierra Leone.

Miss Burdett Coutts has recently put a very
beautiful market in the midst of the slums
of Bethnal-green ; the Thames Embankment will
be when finished the finest walk in the kingdom—
and, perhaps, if all is done that is talked of, the
finest in the world ; more to the west, mansions are
springing,' up, which have some real architectural
beauty ; and the small, cramped shops are, in most
of the principal thoroughfares, being gradually
turned into spacious, well-built houses of business.
Two very important works are also to be opened
to public use in June or July. The first
is the Ilulborn ViAuct, across Farringdou-
street. This, while it would hardly satisfy a
strict student of [esthetic; will be the means of
improving the neighbourhood very considersbly.
And the new bridge at Blackfriars is to be opened
nearly about the same time. The bridge has been
enthusiastically described as the best bridge across
the Thames. But it will be hard to beat the massive
granite of Waterloo, or the neat, finished appearance
of Westminster.

SCIENCE V. HTIALANITY.

The Pall Mall Gazette, ever energetic in condemn-
ing cruelty, calls special attention to a serious case
of ill-treatment of a hospital patient by a Dr.
von Trautvelter, as reported in the Berlin
papers. The doctor first dissected some
eight dead bodies. Having done with these he
selected for further experiment " a woman of twenty-
eight, almost in articulo mortis from cavities in the
lungs," and proceeded to subject her to an experi-
ment far too horrible to detail. The patient died an
hour afterwards, " whether from the progress of the
disease or the effects of the experiment is not clear."
Our own Lancet, with a coolness that almost makes
one fear for the education of the doctors by whom it
is read, thinks the question whether he did wrong or
not a matter for discussion. We should suggest•the
Old Bailey as the place where the discussion should
be held—a judge and jury for the audience.

THE VOLUNTEERS OF SWITZERLAND AND ENGLAND.

The volunteers are becoming rather a cosmopolitan
than a national body. Instead of fighting against,
they are fraternising with, other nations. First they
shook hands with the Belgians, and met in friendly
rivalry the riflemen of Brussels. Now Switzerland
holds out the loving cup, and asks the English volun-
teers to partake of the national rejoicing at Zug.
The managers of the annual Swiss shooting festival
send, through Lord Elcho, a cordial invitation to the
volunteers of England to be present, and the friendly
missive is couched in terms the most warm:—
" When, in the great troubles of 1848, European diplo-
macy bore so harshly upon Switzerland, Great Britain
gave many evidences of kindness and loyalty towards us.
This will never be forgotten. Our marksmen especially
remember the hearty reception with which you honoured
them at your last shooting festival at Wimbledon.
They are anxious to be afforded an occasion to recip-
rocate these attentions and marks of friendship, and
they hope that such an opportunity will be presented
at our next national shooting festival at Zug. We
intend to make this shooting festival even more interest-
e. and ;11l portant th 12, any ono prooocling it in
Switzerland. We beg you to advise us as early as con-
venient of the number of visitors which we may expect, in
order that we may be enabled, so far as possible, to make
the proper arrangements for their reception. The Federal
shooting begins on the 11th of July, and ends with the
21st of the same month. We expect a very numerous
participation on the part of English marksmen at our
national shooting festival."

The volunteers have thus an evident " mission" to
perform. They, who were called together to defend
the nation, are making an attack upon it snore diffi-
cult by producing friendly sentiments towards us in
the minds of the people of other countries. Who
knows ?—we may yet have members of the Peace
Society joining the rifle brigade.

THE BRITISH AND FOREIGN BIBLE SOCIETY.

Exeter Hall was well attended on Wednesday, on the
occasion of the annual meeting of the British and Foreign
Bible Society. The Earl of Shaftesbury presided. The
report, which was one mass of statistics, stated that the
income of the society for the past year had been nearly
£200,000. Of this sum £98,160 was applied to the
general purposes of the society, whilst .£78,328 was ex-
pended in the production of Bibles and Testaments.
There was upwards of £lO,OOO received for special
objects—£l,soo for the China fund ; £3,645 for the
Spanish fund, and £6,317 for the building fund. The
total expenditure amounted to £187,537, nearly £lO,OOO
of that amount having been paid on account of the
PCNV premises. The total amount of the society's
liabilities on the date when the accounts were made up
was £98,651. The issues of books from the society's
depot during the past year bad been over two millions.
The total issues from the society's commencement now
amount to the extraordinary figure of 37 millions. Through
its means chiefly the Scriptures are now circulated in 185
languages. The adoption of the report was moved by
the Archbishop of York, seconded by the Rev. Canon
Smith, and carried unanimously. The Bishop of Vic-
toria, the Rev. L. Vince, the Rev. Dr. Schaft, the Rev.
N. Muirhead, and others subsequently addressed the
meeting.

LONDOW, TIIURSDAY, MAY 6, 1869.

Nothing could well be more prompt or more ener-
getic than the action of the Government in regard to
the Mayor of Cork. "The O'Sur.uvAx Disability
Bill" is the title of the measure suddenly prepared,
and yesterday submitted to the House of Commons,
with a view to the removal of that functionary forth-
with from the magisterial position he has so recently,
so very flagrantly, and so very disloyally brought into
disrepute. As to the offend thus summarily to be
puniihed, there is no doubt whatever about it. As
Mr. GATIIOI:NE ll.tnnv remarked yesterday " the
facts are kno ,vn"—they are simply noto-
rious. AccOrding to Mr. DistuELt the Bill
is framed upon an cx parte :•titeinent—th:l
14,g,islature is asked to act upon the ipse dixit of an
Lish Attorney-C/3:lcm]. Putting it thus pointedly,
almost personally, against that respon:ible law
officer of the Cuo.vn, cannot of course be very agree-
abler to him—cannot, indeed, but be wounding to the
amour-propre of that right hon. gentleman. Refer-
ring to the sneering allusion thus made to the Irish
Attorney-General, Mr. GLADSTONE could not refrain
from exclaiming, " Sir, I have* rarely heard a
personal taunt delivered in this House that
was more entirely out of place." The Prime
Minister adding, thereupon—" The office of
Attorney-General for Ireland is a high and distin-
guished office. The Attorney-General for Ireland is

Extracts from the Report of the Directors, presented at
the Artual General Meeting held on the 27th November,
1868 :-
1. The sum of £412,345 was proposed for Assurance, of
which £307,395 was completed at Premiums pro-
ducing £10,067 per Annum.
2. The amount paid under Claims by death was £100,883,
being the smallest since 1860, whilst the expenses of
management and all other outgoings were even less
than for many years past.
3. On the other band, the Income was raised to £219,769,
notwithstanding that its increase was retarded by
h i
abatements of premium which did pot take effect in
the previous year, and by th.e cessation of interest on
the large sum paid as Bonus in 1867.
4. The Surplus income was very considerable. It
amounted to £93,152, a sum exceeding by more than
£B,OOO any previous Surplus during the forty-four
years of the Society's existence.
b. The Accumulated Fund was thereby increased to
£1,598,906.

The following aro among the distinctive features of tho
Society :
CREDIT SYSTEM.—On any Policy for the whole of
Life, where the age does not exceed GO, one-half of the
Annual Premiums during the past five years may remain

able on the attainment of a specified age, or at death,
whichever event shall first happen.
INVALID LIVES may be assured at rates proportioned
to the increased risk.
PROMPT SETTLEMENT OF CLAIMS.—Claims paid
thirty days after proof of death.

THE BOOK SOCIETY.

On the same evening the Book Society for Promoting
Christian Knowledge among the Poor celebrated its 119th
anniversary by a son* at Radley's Hotel, Bridge-street,
Blackfriars, over which General H. Aylmer presided.
The operations of the society are not confined to this country,
but extend to India, Africa, America, Australia, and New
Zealand, where it has friends and supporters. The demand
for its publications continues to increase in all parts of
the world, and besides having sent out many thousands of
a large illustrated Bunyan's " Pilgrim's Progress,' the
issue of the penny edition had reached close upon a
million copies. Fox's " Book of Martyrs " bad likewise
been in great request, as had also several modern works
addressed to women and children, and the aim of the
society is to satisfy this growing thirst for religious litera-
ture, by making the best books the cheapest. The
receipts of the past year amounted to £8,760 Gs. Bd., and
the expenditure to £8,610 Gs. 2d.

AMBASSADORIAL ETIIICS.

The Owl, noting that every intention is manifested on
the part of the Belgian and French Governments to bring
the railway dispute to a final settlement, observes that
the reconciliation has been brought about by the Em-
peror, whilst the quarrel was in great immure
due to the French representative at Brussels, M.
de Lagudronniere. The official tone of this diplomatist
was friendly and reassuring, but in private circles he gave
vent to alarming expressions. He talked of Belgian
neutrality as " ancient history," and asserted that the
only salvation for Belgium was to become a province of
France. Worse than this, La France, a semi-official
paper, which vehemently assailed the Belgitins, is well-
known to be the property of M. de LagueCroun;l.-e. There
is no objection to politicians ow papers, but if an
ambassador be a newsnar.- proprietor, his journal ought
not to fox us annexing the c3untry to which he his
.ccredited.

The Patric says that two of the three Belgian members
of- the mixed commission have already been nominated.
One is the chief manager and the other the inspector.
general -of State railways,„, No politicians
will sit on the ebmuussioil. rumours of
Ministerial crisis in Belgium are premature, to say the
least. One Minister has, indeed, resigned, but his retire•
ment has nothing to do with the railway question.

THE CARLISTS.

The Carlist movement is of great service to the Spanish
Government as a " bogey" which is constantly raise&to
frighten the refractory sections of the Cortes. A great
show of force is kept in the North as a safeguard against
a Carlist inroad ; but the Duke of Madrid's followers
never make their appearance. According to the Madrid
correspondent of the Independance Beige, a large fleet of
Spanish ships is now watching the northern shores of
Spain. But so little are the inhabitants of the Basque
provinces disposed to rise in the interests of Don Carlos
that no less than 1,000 men in that district have just
volunteered for service in Cuba.

SCIENCE V. HUMANITY.

The Pall Mall Gazette, ever energetic in condemn-
ing cruelty, calls special attention to a serious case
of ill-treatment of a hospital patient by a Dr.
von Trautvelter, as reported in the Berlin
papers. The doctor first dissected some
eight dead bodies. Having done with these he
selected for further experiment " a woman of twenty-
eight, almost in articulo mortis from cavities in the
lungs," and proceeded to subject her to an experi-
ment far too horrible to detail. The patient died an
hour afterwards, " whether from the progress of the
disease or the effects of the experiment is not clear."
Our own Lancet, with a coolness that almost makes
one fear for the education of the doctors by whom it
is read, thinks the question whether he did wrong or
not a matter for discussion. We should suggest the
Old Bailey as the place where the discussion should
be held—a judge and jury for the audience.

TIIE VOLUNTEERS OF SWITZERLAND AND ENGLAND.

The volunteers are becoming rather a cosmopolitan
than a national body. Instead of fighting against,
they are fraternising with, other nations. First they
shook hands with the Belgians, and met in friendly
rivalry the riflemen of Brussels. Now Switzerland
holds out the loving cup, and asks the English volun-
teers to partake of the national rejoicing at Zug.
The managers of the annual Swiss shooting festival
send, through Lord Elcho, a cordial invitation to the
volunteers of England to be present, and the friendly
missive is couched in terms the most warm:—

" When, in the great troubles of 1848, European diplo-
macy bore so harshly upon Switzerland, Great Britain
Tave many evidences of kindness and loyalty towards us.
his will never be forgotten. Our marksmen especially
remember the hearty reception with which you honoured
them at your last shooting festival at Wimbledon.
They are anxious to be afforded an occasion to recip-
rocate these attentions and marks of friendship, and
they hope that such an opportunity will be presented
at our next national shooting festival at Zug. We
intend to make this shooting festival even more interest-
ing and important than any one preceding it in
Switzerland. We beg you to advise us as early as con-
venient of the number of visitors which we may expect, in
order that we may be enabled, so far as possible, to make
the proper arrangements for their reception. The Federal
shooting begins on the 11th of July, and ends with the
21st of the same month. We expect a very numerous
participation on the part of English marksmen at our
national shooting festival."
The volunteers have thus an evident " mission" to
perform. They, who were called together to defend
the nation, are making an attack upon it more diffi-
cult by producing friendly sentiments towards us in
the minds of the people of other countries. Who
knows P—we may yet have members of the Peace
Society joining the rifle brigade.
London, England, 1869-05-06

THE FRENCH EMPEROR AND TIIE ENGLISH ENGINEERS.

An interesting meeting took place at the Tuileries on
Sunday last. The Emperor Napoleon received the
diploma of honorary member of the British Institute of
Civil Engineers from a commission, including the
president and other officers of the society. The
members of the commission were invited to a reception
at the Tuileries on Monday, and dined with his Majesty
on Tuesday. The leading engineering topics of the day
were discussed, and the Emperor expressed his high sense
of gratification at having been elected an honorary mem-
ber of a scientific society in whose proceedings he had
formerly taken part, and in whose progress he had always
felt a lively interest. Certainly the institute could not
have disposed of their diploma to better advantage. Of
the crowned heads of Europe not one has done nearly. so
much for science as the French Emperor, and to engi-
neering enterprises ho has at all times been especially
well-disposed. The Suez Canal is largely his work, and
with his aid there may yet be land communication between
France and England.

MR. WIIALLEY'S AMENDMENT.

The division Whalley's amendment
shews that the Conservative party generally sup-
ported the member for Peterborough. Among the
late Ministers were Mr. Adderley, Mr. Cave, Mr.
Disraeli, Mr. Hardy, Sir John Hay, Lord H. Lennox,
Lord J. Manners, Mr. Mowbray, Sir S. Northcote,
Sir J. Pakington, Colonel Patten, Colonel Taylor,
Mr. Walpole, and Mr. Whitmore. According
to the printed division list, 325 members voted with
the Government instead of 323, as announced by
Mr. Glyn. This makes the Liberal majority 120,
which was mainly composed of Ministerialists.
Lord Bingham, Mr. Connolly, Mr. Kavanagh,and Col.
Vandeleur supported the clause ; also Mr. Butler-
Johnstone and Sir Roundell Palmer. Major Anson
and Mr. Hurst voted for the first time on the Irish
Church question, both recording their names in
favour of the Government. The Liberals who
followed Mr. Whalley into the division lobby were
Mr. Aytoun, Mr. Briscoe, Mr. Ellice, Mr. Maxwell,
Mr. Tomline, Colonel Stuart, and Mr. Samuel
Whitbread. Mr. Orr-Ewing this time went with
his party. Lord Stanley did not vote, but his
brother voted with his party. The tellers for the
Ayes were Mr. Glyn and Mr. Adam; and for the
Noes Mr. Whalley and Mr. Joshua Fielden.
