(RE'UTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

MADRID, July 24.
The Onicial Gazette of to-day publishes a decree
setting in force the Martial Law of the 17th of
April, 1821, in reference to conspirators against the
public tranquillity. This decree is preceded by a
long explanation of the motives which have led to
its issue.

The new treaty between the North-German Con-
federation and the United States, for the protection of
emigrant; provides for the formation of an international
sworn commission in the ports of departure and arrival.
Besides possessing the right Df thoroughly examining the
emigrant ships, the commission shall be empowered to
summon and hear witnesses, to prescribe all necessary
oaths and declarations, to impose fines and punish with
imprisonment, to decide in all cases of claims for compen-
sation, and to pronounce a ship unfit for transporting
passengers between the ports of the two contracting
parties. The resolutions and verdicts of the respective con:-
missions shall be docisive in case of their being unanimou
and when there is a difference of opiu )c_t among them
appeal may be made to the highest Court competent in
Mill'i/10 affairs belonging to the State under the flag of
which the vessel in question sails. The members of 11:e
commission shall discharge t'ieir functions gratuitous],-,
but the under officers are to receive a salary. The cos! s
of administration shall be defrayed by fees, fines, &c., im-
posed by
ill() commissions, and any balance remainin;
over and above, after meeting the expenses, shall be ap-
plied to the relief of indigent emigrants.—North German
Correspondent.

A private soldier in California has invented a new
methol for skimming milk. He fits a line gauze sieve to
a hoop of the size of a pan. Tho milk is then poured
jute the pau so as to a little more than cover the sieve.
When the cream has risen the hoop is lifted, and the cream
is thus completely removed.

THE NAILEBS' STRIKE IN WORCESTER-
SHIRE.

The callers of Bromsgrove have entered upon the ninth
lIVISk of their strike against the reduction in their wages
sought to be introduced by the masters. The strike
tvas for some time confined to the Bromsgrove
lands, chiefly employed upon " thousand" work ; but,
after great perseverance on the part of the Bromsgrove
men, it extended to the other districts known as the
"up country." In this part, which embraces Dudley
Old Hill, Rowley, Netherton, Halesowen, Blackheath,
Perry's Lake, Darley Hand, and Windmill End, many of
the operatives are engaged upon "hundred" as well as
" thousand" work, and hence the difficulty experienced by
the Bromsgrove nailers in securing a general turn-out of the
trade. They have, however, succeeded to a considerable
extent, and every day would seem to add to the number of
the unemployed in the nail-making districts, the Halesowen
section at length yielding to the importunities of the
Bromsgrove operatives. It is highly probable that unless
some satisfactory settlement be speedily effected the
whole body of nailers will be on strike in a fortnight,
and the present season is more favourable to them than
winter. During the week large meetings have been held
at Bromsgrove and other places, and resolutions passed,
pledging the men not to resume work until the masters
consent to pay them the full 20s. in the pound. The masters
of the Bromsgrove district have met, and decided to
make a net list of workmen's wages to be submitted to
the men, and, at what may be considered a conciliatory
interview with the Nailers' Committee, the latter ex-
pressed themselves agreeable to the proposal on c ertain
conditions.

THE CHINESE IN AMERICA.

A convention to consider the project of encouraging the
immigration of the Chinese to America met at Memphis,
in Tennessee, a few days ago. There is everything to be
said in favour of this scheme. The Chinese, as we have
before shewn, are excellent labourers. They are too
numerous in China, whilst there is room for millions on
the America plains. But before the people of the 'United
States determine to import any more cargoes of Chinese
they should take care to secure the new corners good
treatment on their arrival. At present this is far from
being the case, A detachment recently landed at Sax

The Broad Arrow announces that negotiations are
in progress between the Admiralty and the India
Office, and arrangements are very nearly com-
pleted for sending a fleet into the Eastern
waters. The Persian Gulf is to be provided with a
certain number of vessels, part of the expenses of
which is to be borne by the Indian Treasury.—The
same authority does not take kindly to a proposal
which has been made, but not yet adopted, that a
system of piecework should be introduced at the
Admiralty.—An order has been issued by the
Admiralty that no women are to live on board any
of her Majesty's ships or vessels, whether they be in
harbour or at sea..

THE QDEEN TO MR. PEABODY.

In the same paper which describes the ceremony
at the uncovering of a statue to Mr. Peabody, there
appears a letter of the Queen to the philanthropist.
It is dated Windsor Castle, June 20, 1869, and
runs :

" The Queen is very sorry that Mr. Peabody's sudden
departure has made it impossible for her to see him before
he left England, and she is concerned to hear that he is
gone in bad health. She now writes him a line to express
her hope that he may return to this country quite
recovered, and that she may then have the opportunity,
of which she has now been deprived, of seeing him and
offering him her personal thanks for all he has done for
the people."

The American papers are much pleased with this
epistle).

PRINCE ARTHUR AND THE SUEZ CANAL.
The Army and Navy Gazette, on the authority of
tnat highly-distinguished officer " General Rumour,"
announces that her Majesty's ship Ariadne will be
temporarily commissioned for the conveyance of his
Royal highness Prince Arthur to Egypt on the
occasion of the opening of the Suez Canal. As
the same authority states that Captain Sir William
Wiseman, K.C.13., has considerable claims on the
Admiralty which have not been recognised in the
way they should have been, it is expected that Sir
William will be selected to carry out this brief
service. It is also stated that the young Prince is
going to America; so that it would appear that he
is to commence very shortly to see the world.

THE INTERNATIONAL BOAT-RACE,.

The .New York Tunes, in an article on the forth-
coming race between the Oxford and Harvard
Universities, expresses a fear which ought to be
regarded here as a warning. The American journal
has no fear that Oxford will not give her young rival
a fair chance ; but that the London men, whose
business is betting, will do the same, is not
generally believed. "We send over a cool and self-
reliant crew; one that has twice in succession beaten
the Roahr crew of professionals, which latter in their
turn have once beaten the Wards ; but what chance
coolness, or skill, or pluck will stand against that
maelstrom of unfriendly boats and tugs veering in
and out, on the margin of the course, and against
the yelling men who have their money up and
must win it, we cannot predict." The Times
further notes that all the odds are against
the American crew. The Oxonians have all rowed
in races for many years, and have never been beaten,
whereas two of the Harvard men have never been in
a university crew before this year. Then the Oxford
men, their boat and their stroke, have been selected
with special reference to the Thames course.
London, England, 1869-07-26

A .NATURAL KING.

A great man (says the Daily News) has just died in
Paris—Pere l'Epingle. In Paris, far more than in Lon-
don, there are private persons who by force of character
become in a manner public. They are known to every-
body ; anecdotes about them are current ; and there are
constant references to them in the public prints. Pere
l'Epingle was one of these—the king of the rag-pickers,
who has just died, in orthodox phrase, much regretted.
The rag-pickers are a band of individuals peculiar to the
French metropolis, who appear at dusk with baskets on
their backs, hook, stick, and lantern in hand, to see what
paper, rags, bones, and unconsidered trifles may be picked
up in the streets. They are a large body, strictly under
the superintendence of the police, for even in this humble
trade a license is necessary. On the breast of each rag-
picker may be observed a brass number, by which the
police recognise that the wearer has been duly authorised.
The rag and bone trade has always been known as pro-
fitable, and some rag-pickers rise to considerable wealth.
When their king expired, therefore, this important sec-
tion of Parisian society were able to make an adequate
demonstration of honour to his memory. No less than
1,200 of them turned out to follow the hearse of Pere
l'Epingle. Whence the monarch came, however, and
who he was, no one seems to know. Perhaps Marshal
Canrobert, to whom he was secretary many years ago
in Africa, may be able to tell. At least, Pere
l'Epingle, when hard pressed, has been heard to give
this clue to his antecedents. Under his bed was found a
packet of papers with the inscription—" To be burnt
after my death." Round his neck was a medallion enclos.
ing a miniature portrait of Rachel. Often, when any of
the inhabitants of his quarter, called the Isle of Monkeys,
was in trouble, Pere l'Epingle would disappear for several
hours, sometimes days, but he never came back without
money wherewith to relieve the afflicted. This much for
Pere l'Epingle's private life. His political life was
exemplary. He was really king over his territory, and
his subjects adored their monarch. He signed their
treaties, settled their quarrels, and judged their
delinquencies. lie congregated his people around
him, and lodging in the same neighbourhood they
afforded each other mutual protection. All thieves
were immediately forced to leave—banished for life from
the vicinity. Woe to them if they attempted to return.
But the kingdom of Pere l'Epingle was far too honest for
the frequent incursion of thieves. Besides being monarch
Pere l'Epingle was also doctor. He manufactured his
own medicines, which he gave to his people gratis. He
also undertook the duties of Minister of Instruction. He
kept a library, lent out books, taught children to read and
write, all gratuitously. Finally, like a wise ruler, Pere
l'Epingle, dying, chose a successor, whose name is Philippe
le Rebouter—Philip the Bonesetter.

THE CONDEMNED WOMAN, FANNY OLIVER.

The Teegraph, commenting upon the case of
Fanny Oliver, whose speech, at the Worcester
Assizes, after she had been found guilty of murder,
created such a sensation, weighs the evidence, and
finds it wanting. Our contemporary asserts that
there is no absolute proof of poison in the deceased.
The chemist admits that there might by a very
remote chance have been evolved from the instru-
ments he used in making the post-mortem exami-
nation a grain of arsenic; and this very
remote chance is such that the Telegraph
thinks it would be wrong, without further
inquiry, to hang the woman. The purchase of
arsenic under a false name, the symptoms of poison•
ing shewn by the deceased for some time previous to
his death, the love of the prisoner for another man,
are counted as very little by the Telegraph. It may
be added that the chemist who sold the arsenic to
the condemned woman has been fined £1 for a
breach of the Apothecaries' Act.

Kn. CAWLEY, 11. P., ON THE ENDOWMENT OF
ERROR.

Mr. Cawley, M.P., has been addressing a working
men's association at Manchester on the Irish Church
Bill, He thought the religious equality talked of by
the friends of the measure was not only a misnomer,
but an impossibility. The Protestant and Roman
Catholic Churches were so different in their tenden-
cies and their doctrines that there could be no equality
between them. After speaking at some length on
the principle of concurrent endowment, Mr. Cawley
declared that, rather than pay all religions—if there
was to be no Established Church—he would prefer
that they should pay none. He held that the State
had no right to be the teacher of error, and an
arrangement like concurrent endowment would be
ten times worse than secularising the property.

TIIE SEATS OF THE IRISH BISHOPS.

The Primate of Ireland writes to the Times
stating that a joint letter was written by himself
and the Archbishop of Dublin, and placed in the
hands of Lord Cairns, in which their Graces
declared their willingness, if it were for the good
of the Church, to give up their seats in the House
of Lords. The two archbishops at the same time
"expressed their confidence that every bishop on the
Irish Bench was equally willing with themselves to
make the sacrifice, if it could in any way be used to
mitigate the calamities of their afflicted and deso-
lated Church."

THE POLICE AS WITNESSES.

The Law Journal has some remarks upon the
evidence of policemen, which are rather startling as
shewing whither the legal mind is tending, and as
indicating the weight which in the future will be
attached to what professional thieftakers say.
Policemen, says our contemporary, are frail creatures.
They have a business to do ; they are rewarded if
they obtain a conviction. It cannot, therefore, be
wondered at that they should colour their evidence.
The truth is, we like, and lay too much stress
on, police evidence. • What we rather ought to
do is to lower our estimate of it, to require
corroboration in nearly every case, and to regard
the policeman in every instance—whether the case
be his own, or be he supporting a brother constable—
as a biassed and prejudiced witness.

AGRARIAN OUTRAGES.

Mr. Brinsley Marlay writes to the Times to
suggest that the best remedy for the Irish agrarian
murders would be the temporary suspension of the
Habeas Corpus Act in some districts. The head
Ribandmen are, he says, as well known to the
police in Ireland as the leading thieves are
to the London detectives, and if they
were in prison the underlings would either
leave the country or come forward to give
evidence against their leaders. The present sense
of insecurity has created intense bitterness of feeling,
every effort and every hope being crushed by the
fear of the Eibandman. The Fenian conspiracy
itself was less destructive. Less stringent measures
will not, in the opinion of this writer, be of any
avail. The hidden murderer, if left unchecked,
will some day have the country to himself.

LAW AND POLICE.

Mn. GRENVILLE MuRBAY.—At the Middlesex Sessions,
in the case of the Queen on the prosecution of Grenville
Murray against Lord Carington, a bill has been presented
to the grand jury against his lordship for provoking Mr.
Murray to fight a duel and for assaulting Mr. Murray.
The grand jury have returned the bill, ignoring the count
for provoking to fight a duel, but finding a true bill as to
the count for assault.

SINGULAR CHARGE.-At the Mansion House, on Tues-
day, Robert James Brown, merchant, of Cornhill, and
Charles Stanbridge, bill-broker, were charged with
conspiring to defraud. Mr. Blythe, a young man,
under age, who will be entitled to a fortune of
£lOO,OOO in a few months, had had certain bills drawn for
£l,OOO, £2,000, and £3,000 respectively, and placed in the
hands of a bill discounter without receiving any conside-
ration for them. He found soon afterwards that they were
being circulated, and the defendants were charged with
fraudulent dealing. The prisoners were remanded, bail
being accepted.
Mn. BRIERLY.-At Guildhall, Mr. Brierly, the barrister
who has frequently disturbed the quiet of the courts of
late, was charged with assaulting a telegraph clerk, and
bound over to keep the peace for six months.

TRIAL OF A SCHOOLSIASTER.-At the Newcastle
Assizes, on Monday, a schoolmaster, named Hodkinson,
was indicted for wounding a boy. It seemed that some
bailiffs were trying to effect an entrance into Mr. Hod-
kinson's house, and that a crowd of boys were in the
garden. Mr. Hodkinson threatened the boys with a
pistol, which he afterwards discharged, when a boy was
wounded The jury found the prisoner not guilty.

A JERSEY JUDGE AND HIS FEES.

The straits to which Jersey officials, owing to the empti-
ness of the island exchequer, are driven for money have
been repeatedly referred to. Last Saturday the Jersey
Jurats sat as a Court of Admiralty, when they gave judg-
ment in several cases against the South-Western and Wey-
month and Channel Islands Packet Companies for har-
bour dues which both companies allege to be excessive and
unwarranted, but which the States have determined to
enforce. A characteristic conversation was originated by
the bench. Judge Le Montais asked why his fees had not
been paid for attendance on the bench in the last South-
Western Steam Packet Company's case. He added, "In
all Admiralty cases we are entitled to two shillings fees."
The Attorney-General (who appeared as counsel for the
States): I am not going to advance money for the public ; I
cannot get paid my own fees.—Judge Le Montais : But the
harbour. master should advance the money; he is continually
receiving harbour dues. The Attorney-General said the
money could not be advanced without an order from the
Committee of Harbours. If the judges wished, he would
apply to the committee, but unless provided by the com-
mittee nth cash, he would not advance a single halfpenny
for the public.—Judge Le Montais : But the G reffierinforms
me his fees have been paid. The Attorney-General
explained that this was by mistake. Ile should nut in
another case pay the fees.—The Greffier: In that case the
cause would not be inscribed on the list. The Attorney-
eneral : I will not advance money for the public.—Judge
Le Montais : The harbour-master must pay our fees. The
Harbour-master: You must make an order to that effect
as my discharge.—Judge Le Montais : You don't want
anything of the kind. Shall we not be in the States to
vouch for the order we now give you? The harbour.
master assented. In order to appreciate the conversation
fully, it is necessary to bear in mind that the judge, who
seems apprehensive of losing his 25., sat in a case equiva-
,ent to a Crown prosecution, and the insular resources are
his security for the fees. The Attorney-General, who de-
clined to advance a halfpenny for the public, was at the
time the advocate of the public, that if., of the States.
Confidence in the future finances of Jersey, therefore, is
eq a low ebb.
