ORDNANCE SURVEY OF SINAI.

Captains Wilson and Palmer have forwarded further
communications respecting the progress of the Ord-
nanco Survey of Sinai. Captain Wilson reports that the
observations of the survey are completed, and the
computation will be finished by the 12th of December.
He expects shortly to send a diagram of the points
and traverses. Ile adds that the " poling " and
observing have been very hard work, and he and
Captain Palmer have had much to undergo in making
their observations. Roughly speaking, he should say
that the special survey will be completed by
the end of April. He hopes that the money
in the fund will soon reach the estimate, which
will not be too large for the work to be done.
Captain Palmer's letter was written for the purpose
of filling up gaps, and he declares that during the
survey their habits have been more like those of goats
and ibexes than anything else. The observing
for triangulation was finished when he wrote.
He trusts that Serbal will not prove so serious an
undertaking as Jebel Musa, but at any rate they will
go to their work with the experience they have gained,
and in good training for the mountains.

GERMANY.

The Temps says that great activity has prevailed during
the last fifteen days in the Prussian military departments.
Great quantities of munitions of war and supp lies of food
have been collected at Magdeburg, Hanover, and Minden.
[t is expected that in several CO3p d'armee a part of the
reserve is about to be called up. It is to be presumed that
the state of affairs at Paris induces the Prussian Govern-
ment, without, perhaps, any immediate expectation of
war, to make ready for eventualities. It is not a little
odd that the astute Count Bismarck should have first pro-
posed the Conference, and then, after the ambassadors
have blundered for a week, set to work to get his corps
d'armee in order.

SPAIN.

The relations between the Provisional Government ana
the Tuileries have become somewhat unfriendly. The
intention of the Spanish Ministry to send a corps d'armee
to the northern frontier, to hold in check the Carlists and
Isabellists, is said to have given offence to the Emperor.
It is certain that the Emperor has given offence to the
Provisional Government. After the Madrid loan had been
Dffered for some time in Paris, an order was suddenly
riven to remove all announcements from the Exchanges,
and all possible obstacles have been thrown in the way of
the sale of the bonds as contrary to law. Senor Olozaga
is much offended at this proceeding, which he attributes
to the influence of Isabella.

The Madrid correspondent of the Constitutionnel gives an
amusing account of the result of the municipal elections
A Cadiz. This great triumph of Republicanism secured
the return of seven councillors who have fallen, at some
period of their career, under the jurisdiction of the criminal
avr, three who are neither electors nor eligible for election,
Dne foreigner, and nine who will not accept the greatness
which has been thrust upon them. The remainder are
not sufficient to form a council, and there must be another
election.

THE WILLF.NIIIM POLICE CASE.

Mr. Hudson, of Wolverhampton, writes to the
Tires on a case which has already attracted some
attention—that of the little lads who were com-
mitted for a week's imprisonment in Stafford C aol
for " tossing " and obstructing the thoroughfare.
They were " fined " Cd. each, and ordered to pay the
costs, or suffer the term of imprisonment. These costs
amounted to 775., or lls. each. The parents could have
paid the fines, but the costs were far beyond their means,
and the unfortunate youths would have been dragged
to prison had it not been for the interference of some
gentlemen. Four :out of the seven lads were but
thirteen years of age, and their homes were so poor
that the penalties might as well have been pounds as
shillings, since in every case it was impossible for
the inmates to pay them.
The Rev. Mr. Fisher has written to the Birmingham
Post explain some particulars of this affair. Ho
states that the facts of the case were not exactly
reported. Some of the boys had been convicted
before, and none were under fourteen years of age.
He adds that well-grounded complaints have been
made for some time past upon the obstruction of the
footpaths by idle youths, and that the lads in ques-
tion were charged with a similar offence, added to
which their language to passers-by was insulting
and disgusting. Under these circumstances, the
magistrates imposed a small fine with the security
for payment provided by the statute.

THE CHIVALRY OF THE 4' YOUNG MAINt OF THE
PERIOD."

We live in a matter-of-fact age, and look upon
Chivalry as in most part a splendid dream; but we
still hold in theory the creed, as to the protection of
the weaker sex, which in later romances, if not in
reality, marks the knightly character. But the
practice in many respects differs from the creed. The
Bally .News very forcibly complains that in the
metropolis it is a thing quite impossible for a
pretty girl to take a walk alone. Is it that
the teaching of some of the theatres and certain
" fast " periodicals is bearing fruit in this way ; or
what is it that has created this evil ? For it un-
doubtedly exists, and men who call themselves
" gentlemen " do not think it beneath them to demon-
stratively stare at, follow, and accost a girl who dares
to walk alone in the public parks. There is, perhaps,
something to be said for the fact that very few
respectable young ladies do walk alone. But to what
a state matters must have come to have brought
about this consummation !

AMATLIIa DOCTORING.

The Times published a letter two or three days
ago from Mr. Le Neve Foster, of the Society of Arts,
in which he advocated the administration of carbolic
acid diluted with ten parts of water for scarlet fever
and typhus, the dose used being one teaspoonful. It is to
be hoped no one attempted to administer it, for the
next day letters appeared from two doctors stating
that such a dose would kill a child. Mr. Foster now
writes correcting his former letter. He says that he
did not mean the pure concentrated carbolic acid,

but a ," solution of the medicinal " preparation7A

THE RAILWAY CLEARING-HOUSF.

Very few persons who travel long distances by
rail are at all aware of the obligations which they
owe to the Clearing House in Euston-road. When
it was first established each railway line only
booked as far as its own rail went, and every fresh
line entailed a fresh ticket. At the present day
such a system would be unbearably irksome. The
traveller from London to Inverness has to pass over
six lines of railway ; from Lynn to Inverness over ten.
A change of ticket, carriage, and luggage would be
intolerable, but the Clearing House steps in, and by
a system of through booking smooths all difficulties.
It makes out and settles the accounts of the different
companies one against each other, and instead of
there being conflicting accounts of £15,000 or
£20,000 between them, the ready accountants
of the Euston-road present one of them with
a humble bill of £lO or £2O for the balance.
So excellent is the management of the
Clearing House, that notwithstanding the
enormous traffic which it superintends, and the vast
sums with which it has to deal, its accounts, amount-
ing annually to some twelve millions sterling, are
balanced to the fraction of a farthing. There is one
chief manager, Mr. Dawson, four chief clerks, and
about 000 subordinate clerks, and with these the
whole machinery works perfectly. The stations are
worked in pairs, and more than 100,000 adopt the
through booking system, and send their monthly
accounts to the Clearing House. 78,354 book goods and
cattle through ; 18,514 book passengers through ; and
34,349 book parcels through. The parcel depart-
ment is by no means insignificant. Last year the
number of articles left at the stations amounted to
150,769. Of these, nearly 05 per cent. were restored
through the Clearing,rHouse to their owners. Ademur-
rage is charged against any company retaining another
company's carriage beyond the specified time, and
last year the number of days charged on demurrage
was 353,343. This shewed a falling off under this
head of 33 per cent. owing to the depression of trade.
In 1867 the total gross receipts of the Clearing
House were upwards of 11 millions. Ten years
before they had only been half that amount.
The total mileage of lines under its juris-
diction now amounts to 13,000 miles, and the
mileage for which charges were made in the year
1867 were in the aggregate 969,213,158 miles. Three
years after its institution there were only 10 com-
panies on its books ; ten years later there were 73.
Now its books include all the lines of importance in
the kingdom, and some of the steamboat lines. All
alit e have reason to be satisfied with the efficiency of
its services and with the simplicity of its manage-
ment.

THE WILLENHALL POLICE CASE.

" A Chairman of Quarter Sessions," writing to the
Times about the "Willenhall police case, fully endorses
all that has been said of the evils arising from the
system of paying the clerks of petty sessions by
fees and not by salary. When the bench puts on a
nominal fine—perhaps of a farthing—the clerk's

in the opinion of this writer, to rail at clerical
magistrates, for in some parts of the country there
would be no magistrates at all without them. Their
chief fault is that they are too much influenced by
their clerks, and from a fear of the mysteries of the
law they do not think enough for themselves. With

A II( U 'E OP PRAYER. ?

" Ladies and gentlemen, you can take your choice
of any seat in the house except Mr. Beecher's." Such
were the words which Mr. Pilsbury, the auctioneer,
addressed to the fashionable attendance who crowded
to the annual auction of seats in Mr. Henry Ward
Beecher's church at Brooklyn, New York, a few days
ago. " llow much am I offered ? How much am I
offered, gentlemen ? Two hundred dollars !—twenty-
five fifty, seventy-five, three hundred, three-fifty,fout
hundredi dollars, gentlemen ! five, ten, fifteen, four
hundred and fifteen dollars, gentlemen. Who is the
happy man? Going at twenty, at twenty, at twenty,
at fourlmndred and twenty dollars-420—are you all
done at four hundred and twenty dols. ? Sold! to Henry
C. Bowen for four hundred and twenty dols." Mr.
Bowen took No. 89, the second pew directly back of
the pastor. Mr. Bowen had to pay this amount in
addition to the assessed value of the pew, so that it
cost him 540 dols.—say.loo guineas. Very spirited
in Mr. Bowen ; more spirited than spiritual, in fact.
The total amount paid for pew rents at the auction
was about 10,000 guineas. At this rate Mr. Beecher
must be doing better than a director in city com-
panies, with the additional advantage that he is in no
danger of a prosecution for conspiracy.

THE STONEMASONS IN ',ANC 1 SHIRE.

Whatever may be said of trades unions, they
certainly are not always reasonable. The dispute
between masters and masons as to dressing stone,
which has raged in Manchester and elsewhere for the
last few weeks, and has relieved there a comparatively
dull period, is a case in point. Some time back the
men struck against stone being rough-dressed by
machinery. They were powerful enough to force the
masters to submission. But rough-dressing stone by
hand is by no means a profitable employment, and this
the men soon discovered. Whereupon, away they went
again to the masters, begging for the restoration of
the discarded machinery. But the masters, having
made a change, and having been made to knock
under, and for other reasons not stated, refused the
request. The men now threaten to strike. The
masters are said to be firm, and the men " obstinate."
But it does seem r,ither too bad that after what had
taken place the men should act as they are now

'SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS,

The Times thinks that the new Board of Admiralty hat
addressed itself to an arduous task. It is certain that s
serious check must be applied to our naval expenditure,
and equally certain that the way to do it has not yet beer
discovered. It is evident that the singularity of the cir
cumstances is adverse to the attempt. That it may be
successful yet, by some new and unknown way, cannot be
denied ; but appearances are always against it. Of course
it is the new broom that sweeps clean, and the new
housemaid that always declares such dirt and dust and
cobwebs were never seen as those she inherits from het
slovenly predecessor. We have a sweep of the new
broom in the circular letter we published on Tuesday.
The charges against the late housemaid were fulminated
far and wide from the British hustings in December.
The Board of Admiralty seems to propose to attack the
establishments and the comprehensive subject of naval
expenditure in detail, at every point where it is possible
to apply a test. Appealing, in the first instance, to the
public spirit of officers and the whole staff employed,
they urge economy of time, labour, material, anlgenerally
that saving which is commonly understood by the sub-
stitution of the head to save the work of the heels. Of
course material may be visibly wasted ; there may be
heaps accumulated only to rot, or to be thrown away ;
there may be bodies of men employed on work mani-
festly useless ; officers may coal their ships where coal,
of course, is dear, because it has come the greatest
distance. There are persons who never think of the cost.
It is hardly possible to get up equal vigilance, or even
equal prudence, when one enjoys perfect immunity from
the risk, and perhaps wins equally, whatever the result.
The Board of Admiralty, therefore, proposes to supply,
as far as possible, this vigilance, this prudence, and this
calculation and common sense, which, under the circum-
stances, it is so difficult for the various employ& to supply
for themselves, and it begins by an appeal to the officers
of the navy and naval establishments to assist in the work
of self-control.

THE RAILWAY CLEARING-110USF.

Very few persons who travel long distances by
rail are at all aware of the obligations which they
owe to the Clearing House in Euston-road. When
it was first established each railway line only
booked as far as its own rail went, and every fresh
line entailed a fresh ticket. At the present day
such a system would be unbearably irksome. The
traveller from London to Inverness has to pass over
six lines of railway ; from Lynn to Inverness over ten.
A change of ticket, carriage, and luggage would be
intolerable, but the Clearing House steps in, and by
a system of through booking smooths all difficulties.
It makes out and settles the accounts of the different
companies one against each other, and instead of
there being conflicting accounts of £15,000 or
£20,000 between them, the ready accountants
of the Euston-road present one of them with
a humble bill of £lO or £2O for the balance.

•So excellent is the management of the
Clearing House, that notwithstanding the
enormous traffic which it superintends, and the vast
sums with which it has to deal, its accounts, amount-
ing annually to some twelve millions sterling, are
balanced to the fraction of a farthing. There is one
chief manager, :Mr. Dawson, four chief clerks, and
about 900 subordinate clerks, and with these the
whole machinery works perfectly. The stations are
worked in pairs, and more than 100,000 adopt the
through booking system, and send their monthly
accounts to the Clearing House. 78,354 book goods and
cattle through ; 18,514 book passengers through ; and
• 34,349 book parcels through. The parcel depart-
ment is by no means insignificant. Last year the
number of articles left at the stations amounted to
: 150,769. Of these, nearly 95 per cent. were restored.
through the Clearing House to their owners. A demur-
n ge is charged against any company retaining another
company's carriage beyond the specified time, and
last year the number of days charged on demurrage
was 353,343. This shewed a falling off under this
head of 33 per cent. owing to the depression of trade.
In 1867 the total gross receipts of the Clearing
House were upwards of 11 millions. Ten years
before they had only been half that amount.
The total mileage of lines under its juris-
diction now amounts to 1:3,000 miles, and the
mileage for which charges were made in the year
1867 were in the aggregate 269,213,158 miles. Three
years after its institution there were only 16 com-
panies on its books ; ten years later there were 73.
Now its books include all the lines of importance in
the kingdom, and come of the steamboat lines. All
DIV e have reason to be satisfied with the efficiency of
its services and with the simplicity of its manage-
ment.

D EN MARK,.

A slight difficulty has arisen between Denmark and the
United States respecting the Island of St. Thomas. This
Danish possession was sold to America, but Congres;,
after the Alaska purchase, refused to ratify the bargain.
The Danish Government, however, urges that it could
treat only with the Executive Power ; that the treaty is
therefore valid, and that the honour of the United States
Government is involved in its sincere execution. A deft•
nite decision will be given by Congress.

caused the insertion of a clause in every contract
providing for the surrender to Government, on
liberal terms, if the purchase were concluded by the
4th of March, 1847. At the expiration of the time
the Postmaster-General had but reported that
though he considered it vastly superior to any
other, he remained • unsatisfied that any rates
could make the revenue derived from the
telegraph equal its expenditure. This wise
opinion finished off every chance of its adoption
by Congress, nor that only, hut for a period effec-
tually checked the construction of the joint-stock
lines then in progress, and had it not been that many
gentlemen were by this time as persuaded of its
value as Mr. MORSE himself, these wiseacres would
have burked one of the greatest inventions of the
age. What the Government is likely now to get
the telegraph for, we cannot say ; but it is possible
that the action of the Hon. CAVE-JOHNSON has lost
to the United States some millions of dollars. Here,
however, we may observe that Mr. ORTON, who
presides over the Telegraph system of the United
States, which nearly equals those of all Europe com-
bined, gave some good reasons why it should not be
transferred as a department of the Government. The
Professor's speech was one well worth reading, as
in simple, earnest language he tells the story, alike
honourable to himself and to many of the most able
of his countrymen, while almost unconsciously he
stigmatizes severely the prejudices and follies of
others. Not far from him sat CYRUS W.
FIELD, the man of practice. Both names are
indelibly engraven on the telegraph, but each in
different characters; the one associated with a scien-
tific invention, the other with a gigantic enterprise ;
and that they heartily respect and appreciate each
other is seen in the fact that the most active pro-
moter of this public acknowledgment of Professor
MORSE'S services was CYRUS W. FIELD, while as
graceful a compliment as could have been paid was
interwoven with the name of FIELD in the Profes-
sor's able speech on which we now comment.

MR. MACSONOCHIE ON CHURCH AND

STATE.

Mackonochie gives the world a further glimpse of
his notions of the terms on which the Church should
be related to 'the State. The ecclesiastical courts, he
contends, should be restored to the character given
to them in the original compact between the two
branches of the body politic. " This compact provides
that under the Crown matters spiritual shall be decided
by that part of the body politic called the spirualty.
This never excluded laymen. from sitting as
judges in the ecclesiastical courts, provided they
were skilled in canon law, sat by authority of
the spiritualty, and were free from the control of
`that part of the body politic called the tem-
poralty.'" Mr. Mackonochie looks forward with delight
to the complete separation of Church and State. Even if
the entire revenues of the Church were kept by the
State, the freedom of the Church would be cheaply
purchased. " Nevertheless," he says, "looking at
the matter from the side of abstract justice, I think
Church property may be divided thus, according to the
intentions with which it was given. First, the churches
built and the endowments given or bequeathed by private
persons up to the reign of William and Mary were almost
invariably left for spiritual purposes, and therefore ought
to belong to the Church. Secondly, the same classes of
property for the next 140 years were mostly given to the
Church as to a spiritual police force, and therefore might
rightly be claimed by the State. Thirdly, modern gifts
and bequests have been mostly of the first kind, and
ought, therefore, to follow the first class. Fourthly,
tithes are a gift to God, made by the State at one
period, which the State at another may, if it think fit,
reclaim. But then I suppose that tithe-payers will have a
right to claim that, when those which still go to their
original purpose are remitted, the remainder which have
fallen into lay hands shall also be remitted. This is, you
will see, no more than a rough suggestive view of the
question of justice, for which I am alone responsible."

LARGE CONSINGNMENT OF AMERICAN GAME TO
LONDON. —On Thursday a large cargo of prairie fowl or
American grouse was imported into the London markets for
sale. They were in fresh condition, and very readily ob-
tained buyers at 2s Gd to 4s per brace. They much re-
semble moor game, and form a good substitute for Scotch
grouse now the season is over. A large consignment of
capercailzio, or cock of the wood, also arrived from the
Continent, and the poultry markets are glutted with foreign
game. Capercailzie sold at 4s to 5s Gd each, and were in a
good state of preservation.
