" A bright and sunny book of travel is always acceptable, and
when to the accomplishment of a good narrator au author brings
a genuine feeling for art and keen appreciation of beauty in
nature, he at once appeals to a host of sympathising readers.

MIL HARVEY LEWIS.

It is a pity that the senior member for Marylebone
does not follow the example of Mr. Gordon, one of
the defendants in the prosecution against the Overend
and Gurney directors. Mr. Gordon declares himself
innocent of the charges brought against him, and
there are many persons who believe that, however it
may fare with his fellow directors, he, at least, will
be acquitted. At present he has merely been com-
mitted for trial without any expression of opinion on
the part of the committing magistrate. I\ everthe-
less, Mr. Gordon ha s res gn ed all hisdirectorshipsrather
than that the companies with which he was connec-
ted should suffer through his relationship with them.
Mr. Harvey Lewis will do nothing of the sort. True,
a judge has accused him of fraud and falsehood; true,
that judge has declared that be and his co-defendants
ought to be turned out of the court ; true, some of
Mr. Lewis's constituents have expressed their con-
viction that he ought to resign. But he declines to do
so ; he asserts that he has a good answer to the charges
brought against him. He may have ; but it
is not right that an important borough like Maryle-
bone, containing some of the highest class electors in
the kingdom, should be represented by a member
who is open even to the suspicion of such charges as
those which the Vice-Chancellor has denounced.
Boroughs cannot afford to wait while their members
are clearing their characters. Gentlemen who have
to go through that process ought not to have their
attention diverted from it by Parliamentary duties.

THE SALFORD ELECTION PETITION.

Baron Martin's decision in the Salford election
petition is being severely canvassed. The evidence
shewed that there was a swarm of paid canvassers,
that seventy-two cabs were engaged in defiance of
the express prohibition, that pugilists and mobs of
roughs were hired to intimidate the electors, that
beer was flowing freely, and that in two or three
instances there was actual bribery, though the
amounts paid were absurdly small. Nevertheless
the sitting members are declared duly elected. It is
impossible to conceive a more discreditably conducted
election than this; and yet it is allowed to stand.
The only inference is, that neither the Reform Bill
nor the Corrupt Practices Act has been of any
appreciable benefit. There is no reason why elec-
toral vices should not prevail as much as before.

The Price of Gold.

fne quotaiim of gold at Paris Is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 251. 153. per .€1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of
La lis.loid. per ounce for standard g►old, it appe.srs that
gold at the above price is abut 1-10th per cent. dearer in
Paris than in London.

The course of exchange at New York on London for bills
at 60 days' eight was on the last date about 1 81 percent.
At this rate there is no profit on the importation of gold
rom the Uni ca states.

Hardwick's Shilling Peerage, thronetage, and

books of reference. They possess all the information con-
tained in the larger and more costly volumes, and they
aro produced in such a neat and portable style that the
three little books may be carried in the coat pocket with-
out the slichtirst inconvenience. No library table can be
said to be complete without them.

Till•: MANUFACTURE OF WATCHES AND CLOCKS.—
A most interesting and instructive little work, describing briefly
but with great clearness, the rise and progress of watch and
clock makin , has just been published by Mr J. W. Benson, of
25, Old Bond-street, 99, Westbourne-grove, and the City Steam
Factory, 58 and 60, Ludgate-hill. The book, which is profusely
illustrated, gives a full description of the various kinds of watches
and clocks, with their prices, and no one should make a purchase
without visiting the above establishments or consulting this truly
valuable work. By its aid persons residing in any part of the
United Kingdom, India, or the Colonies, are enabled to select for
themselves the watch best adapted for their use, and haverit sent
to them with perfect safety. Mr. Benson, Who holds the appoint..
ment to the Prince of Wales, sends this pamphlet to any address
on receipt of two postage stamps, and we cannot too strongly

AUSTRIA AND ITALY.

The Vienna correspondent of the Liberte affirms that
the Cabinet of Florence has for some time past striven to
improve its relations with the Austrian Government.
These ad es have been reciprocated. An early meeting
between the Emperor Francis Joseph and King Victor
Emmanuel is under consideration. The negotiations
undertaken with that object by the Italian Minister at
Vienna are likely to be successful. There is no apparent
reason why these two States should not be friendly. They
have much in common, whilst there is no reasonable
ground for antagonism.
London, England, 1869-03-05

REMARKS.

As was to be expected, the remarkable increase of pressure noticed
the last two days has been succeeded since yesterday afternoon by a
decrease, which is most rapid in the north of Scotland—amounting
to O'Zin. In the S.W. there is very little change. This fall has been
accompanied by a rise exceeding 2-10tlas of an inch in the S.W. of
France, and the reading at Rochefort is now o'Blin. higher than that
at Aberdeen. Temperature has increased, although the Wind is still
north-westerly. At Rochefort, however, a fall is reported. Winds
over these islands have again become north-westerly. They are gene-
rally fresh in the N., and at Ardrossan a gale set in during the night.
In S.W. France a moderate easterly breeze is reported. A little rain
has fallen. The sky is cloudy or overcast, and the weather again very
unsettled. The sea is calm. Warnings to N. and E. coasts.

LONDOAV, FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1869.

The Ballot is at last coming. There can no longer
be any doubt of that. Mr. BERKELEY'S occupation
has gone. The question has passed into the bands
of the Home Secretary. The time for fooling upon
the matter has disappeared. The House of Com-
mons is at last disposed to consider the subject se-
riously. Hitherto the mere phrase Secret-Voting
was little better than a by-word and an opprobrium.
Yesterday, the expression had hardly passed
the lips of Mr. BRUCE when it was hailed
with enthusiasm. It is true that the question
has not yet been actually accepted as a Government
Question by the present Advisers of the Crown. But,
at any rate, it has been openly discussed in the House
by the first of the five Secretaries of State, who has
frankly avowed himself to be a convert to the
Ballot, and has--in moving (as he did last even-
ing) for the appointment of a Select Committee
for inquiring into the present mode of conducting
Parliamentary and Municipal Elections, with a
view of providing further guarantees for their tran-
quillity, purity, and freedom—openly declared that
the object of the Committee would be among other
things to discover whether some System of Secret
Voting could not be devised ! The announcement,
moreover, was hailed with loud and ringing cheers
from the side of the majority, meaning from the
Liberals, or Ministerialists. Again, we say—.
the Ballot is at last coming. The Prime
Minister, himself, has

however, seems to nave a strong ork"--arr-, Vl3 13-,-:
ceeding in the matter, believing, probably, that any
attempt to define rigidly a doctrine of such a mys-
terious character as the Sacramental Presence
in the Eucharist must fail, or that if it
should succeed great harm would be done. lle
therefore declines to grant any aid to the pro-
secutors. The effect of this refusal will be that
some important evidence will not be producible (we
presume that Mr. Bennett's essay in " The Church
and the World " is referred to, as that was published
in the diocese of London). The Church Association
now contemplate applying for a Manda?)27lB to compel
Bishop Jackson to render the same aid as was afforded
by Archbishop Tait.

statistics so exact, the police ought certainly to beable
to perform the duties which are to be imposed upon
them by the Government Suppression of Crime Bill.

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They soperfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth hat aro loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

THE AGRICULTURAL RETURNS.

Complaints have been freely made that the agri-
cultural returns of the Inland Revenue Department
are not published until they are too late for practir
cal purposes. The farmers want the returns of the
harvest soon after the harvest, and not at the end of
the year. Mr. James Caird, writing to the Times, says:
"A summary of the facts was published on the 20th of
September, and appeared in all the newspapers. Every-
one interested—consumers, producers, and the corn
trade alike—had equal opportunities of studying and
calculating the prob able results indicated by the returns.
The farmers, warned by the large increase in the
breadth of .wheat and the fine quality of the crop,
had the opportunity, if they chose to avail them-
selves of it, of being the first in the market ; the
consumers soon participated in the consequent
gradual reduction of price, and the corn trade no
doubt acted with that amount of caution which
discouraged excessive importation at prices which
might otherwise have proved disastrous to them-
selves and their correspondents. The full returns in
detail were not ready for publication till the close of
the year. But the summary contained all that was
necessary for the guidance of those interested in the
national supply of bread, and its publication so early
as the 20th of September was, in my judgment, most
creditable to the departments concerned."
-

THE PRESERVATION OF SEA BIRDS.
A correspondent of the Times, who agrees heartily
with Mr. Sykes's measure for the preservation of sea
birds, writes urging that its provisions shall be
extended to Scotland. " For the last twenty years,"
he says, " immense numbers of sea-fowl of all kinds
have been netted and killed in the height of the
breeding season on Ailsa Craig. The tenants of
the rock, which in extent ranks next to St. Kilda
and Barra Head, in the British Islands,
have hitherto looked upon the feathers of
the birds as the principal source of revenue out of
which their rent has to be paid. I have been many
times upon the rock, and have seen thousands of
kittiwakes, puffins, and guillemots slain by the
fowlers. Their practice has been to spread nets over
the rocks and broken boulders at nightfall, when the
poor birds were either sitting on their eggs or
cowering beside their callow brood, and return to
them during their morning rounds for the purpose
of twisting the necks of the fluttering captives, who
had been entangled as they quitted their holes at
daybreak. On the last occasion of my visit, I
observed both eggs and dead young birds in some of
the burrows of the puffins ; and I have at other times
counted nearly 2,000 carcases in one heap ready for
being sent to the mainland." Certainly a practice in
itself bad if suppressed in England, where there is
uo organisation pursuing it, should be prevented in
Scotland, where whole villages live to a large extent
upon it.

THE BRAZILIAN SLAVE TRADE.

"Justice to Ireland" has been followed in a small way
by an act of justice to Brazil. In the year 182 G, after
Brazil had shaken off the authority of the Portuguese
Government, a convention was concluded between
England and the South American State, by which it was
solemnly declared, first, that any Brazilian subjects
engaged in the slave trade should be deemed and treated
as guilty of piracy ; and, next, that a reciprocal right of
search should be recognised, and mixed courts of adjudi-
cation established. The Brazilian Government readily
struck this bargain, but shewed no haste to ratify it. The
importation of slaves went on unchecked, and when the
treaty lapsed, in 1845, the Brazilian Government did not pro-
pose any renewal of it. England then perpetrated a well-
intentioned, but wholly unjustifiable act. Our Government,
under Sir R. Peel and Lord Aberdeen, concurred with the
Opposition of the day, under Lord Palmerston, in passing
an Act by which Brazilian slave dealers were to be
regarded as pirates. The insulted Government of Brazil
then encouraged slavery, but our cruisers not only roamed
the seas, but entered Brazilian waters and Brazilian ports
in quest of prey. These measures alarmed the South
Americans, who passed a severe Act, the effect of which
'a as that since 1855 not a single slave has been imported
into the country. But our proceeding, though it has had
this good effect, was thoroughly at fault in principle. It
is now proposed that the Aberdeen Act shouldbe repealed,
and the admission is tolerably universal that it ought not
to have been passed. The necessary measure has been
read a second time in the House of Lords.
