LIGHT V. HEAVY CABLES.

Tho discussion on the advantages of light and
heavy cables continues. A member of the Society
of Civil Engineers thinks much confusion has arisen
in the course of a controversy from a misapplication
of the terms light and heavy cables, inasmuch as a
heavy cable in air may be relatively a light cable
in water, the whole question being ono of specific
gravity. What is required in the production
of the best kind of cable is, in the writer's opinion,
the lightest specific gravity consistent with safety;
such an amount of strength as will keep it intact
iluring the process of laying, and recovery if necessary;
perfect insulation ; atmospheric lightness, keeping, the
two first points ever present ; and the absence of all
perishable external covering.

TILE MOORS.

The Scotsman notes that according to the present
returns at least twice as many grouse have been
killed this season in Perthshire as in the two pre-
vious seasons, and there have been no complaints
about small-sized or bad-conditioned birds. There is
left on all the moors a good stock of healtny
birds for breeding next year. The mountain hare
shooting, is still being prosecuted with vigour,
and the number of hares killed is almost without a
precedent in Perthshire. Partridge shooting has
been better than was anticipated, but owing to the
bare state of the stubble fields, there has been little
cover, and the coveys have flown wide.

(From the Anglo-American Times.)

A San Francisco telegram states that a document
was found on the 30th August last, on the coast of
California, at San Buenaventura, relating to Sir
John Franklin. The document has been evidently
cest into the water at lat. 70, long. 98. It says
that a party, numbering 105, under the command
of F. Crozier, deserted the ships Erebus and Terror,
and wintered at Beechy Island in the year 1846-7 ;
that Sir John Franklin died on the 11th June, 1847 ;
and that the party succeeded in reaching the above
latitude, where the relics of Sir John Ross were dis-
covered. Other incidents are told. The only other
telegrams are—

EMIGRATION:

The working classes of Lambeth have met to
discuss seriously the question of emig,Tation
in connection with the co operative principle. Some
ii.vortant iiiivrintrtion as to me buss places to Ithien
emigrants could proceed was given by the chairman,
Mr.r'George White. Having been for twenty years
in the United States, he did not hesitate to say
that it was the most fitting place for working
men to emigrate to, and that of all the
States of the Union, Kansas was the most
promising. It had a good climate, fine rolling prairies,
there was no timber to cut, and the soil ready for
what they chose to put into it. In 1850 lie passed
through it on his way to California. It was then
almost a wilderness, but in 1860 it contained 400,000
inhabitants, and it has now over a million, with well
cnitivated farms and manufactories of various descrip-
tions in a flourishing condition, while the Union
Pacific Railway ran right through it. There would
be plenty of room in it for all that might emigrate
to it for many a year to come, for it contained fifty-
two million acres.
THE CATTE MURRAIN AND MILK.

The British Medical Journal raises the important
question whether the milk from those anirnalq
affected with foot and mouth disease ought to be used
as food. It is quite certain that at the present time
in the neighbourhood of Guildford, and probably in
other places, where the disease prevails, there is a
strong prejudice against this milk, arising from the
belief that it causes sore mouth in adults, and seri-
ously disagrees with young children. It is found tc
be very hurtful to pigs, so much so that the farmers
are careful to prevent their having it. Yet this milk,
the use of which is refused on the spot, is regularly
sent up to the London market. It is possible that
its injurious effects are not often manifested, and
only under
peculiar circumstances ; still the idea is
not pleasant. Those who have seen it report very
differently as to its qualities, some assertinc, that it is
unaltered, others that it curdles when boiled ; that it
looks brown or red, and even that it is sometimes
fetid. Probably it differs much in different cases.
Tho British Medical erou,nal counsels caution and in-
vestigation.

SUB-AQUATIC TUNNELS,

The Builder, in discussing the project of a Channel
Tunnel, remarks that tunneling is not an invention of the
present century. Tho Romans 2,264 years ego drove the
famous Cinissarium through a part of Mount Alba. The
gallery of Posilippo is known to every visitor of Naples
and the curious system of galleries and caveins known as
the Grotto of the Sibyl, date from remote antiquity. A
knowledge of the engineering works of ancient Italy migh t
have taught our early English engineers something about
the science of tunneling. The progress of the
tunnel engineer was slow in this country. The
canal Tunnels on the Birmingham Railway only admitted
a canal boat, which the boatman propelled by lying on his
back, and pressing his feet alternately against the roof of
the tunnel. The Thames Tunnel was a great achievement
in thin direction, as, instead of boring through earth cr
chalk, the engineer had to drive through shifting musk
Mr Barlow has lately designed a cheap and simple tubular
driftway under the bed of the Thames, but the Builder
pciats out that this is a very different thing from a struc-
ture thirty miles long, and at a level of some hundreds cf
feet beneath the Straits of Dover. It has been proposed
to run a driftway as a preliminary, but the Builder asks,
when it has reached the twentieth mile down, how the
miners are to be sent in to their daily work. How are
they to be supplied with air or with materials, or how will
the excavated chalk be sent back to land 1 Galleries in
chalk aro infested with choke-damp. How is this to be
withdrawn ? The infiltration of water through the chalk
would be another most serious obstacle ; and while not
condemning the project as impossible, the Builder advises
intending subscribers to wait for further information.

FREE LIBRARIES.

A correspondence has passed between the Hon.
Auberon Herbert and the Mayor of Newbury,
in reference to the offer of the former to present
£l,OOO towards the establishment of free libraries in
various towns in Berkshire. In his concluding letter
the liberal donor says :—" I have now only to add a
few words on the subject of free libraries. I will
say nothing about their direct advantages; of
the opportunities of self-improvement and self-
cultivation which a comfortable room and
well-chosen books offer in themselves ; but
I would wish to remind you of the spirit which
arises in these institutions and soon pervades the
whole town to which they belong. They are the
property and meeting ground of all. They know no
distinctions. Their doors stand impartially open to
all sects, all classes, all parties. They are a practical
recognition of a common cause ; and a practical rebuke
of that selfishness which looks upon all civilisation as
a scramble of individuals, and does not require that
society should advance as a compact body, leaving,
none of its members behind in the onward move-
ment."

following are the points mentioned :—A reduction in
the postage of boas and printed matter not only to
places in Great Britain, but also to the colonies and
to India; a postal rate of -Id. for all printed matter
under 2oz. instead of the present minimum rate of
ld. under 40z.; a reduction of letter postage to India,
China, the Cape, and the West Indies, &c., which has
of late years been increased from 50 to 100 per cent.;
and the abolition of the arbitrary fines inflicted for
foreign and colonial letters insufficiently stamped.

BALE OP MADAME RACHEL'S PROPERTY.

The sale of the effects belonging to Madame Rachel
commenced on Monday. The property was described
in the advertisements in that glowing language for which
_our auctioneers have generally been distinguished—" a
matchless sideboard," a handsome set of carved oak
chairs, a rare and valuable clock, and a pair of mas-
sive candelabra, " formerly belonging to the Emperor of
the French f a pair of incense burners, on carved ebony
stands, " formerly the property of the King of Delhi."
Dispersed throughout the house, adopting the words of the
catalogue) were " numerous works of art and an extensive
collection of articles of vertu, many of them being pre-
sentations from Madame Rachel's distinguished
patronesses ;" a full-compassed piano by Kirkman ; about
1,000 volumes of books, and an extensive cellar of wines,
&c. As a matter of course, there was much criticism
respecting the authenticity of the articles described ; and
a great deal of speculation was afloat as to how long a
time had elapsed since the objects which were said to
have formerly belonged to the Emperor of the French and
the King of Delhi had found their way from the palaces
of those renowned potentates. There was a very large
attendance of buyers and spectators. The "company"
were not of the most refined description, and the
crowd was so great outside the street that it was
thought necessary to secure the services of several of
the police, who were placed at the door of the
house, prohibiting admittance to a public sale, except
on presentation of a catalogue—price is. ; yet such was
the course adopted on this occasion, that those who had
not the satisfaction of possessing the required pass-
port were admitted to the privilege of purchasing one
on the premises. in order to accomplish this object,
people were permitted to enter the dining-room, where,
at the end nearest the window, sat Madame Rachel her.
self, with her two daughters, all gracefully attired for the
occasion, and each, paying tha closest attention to the
traffic in catalogues, the proceeds of which were piled up
on the table before them, and conveyed a strong impreh-
Bioll that this part of the day's " sale" was not by any
means the least remunerative. It may be presumed that
Madame Rachel was lawfully justified in making a spe-
cific charge for admission to a residence which has latterly
attracted so much public attention ; but the novelty of a
proceeding which issued invitations to a sale by auction,
and at the same time demanded "money at the doors,"
was naturally the theme of general en. p‘ ise.

THE THREATENED STRIKE AT PRESTON.

A great meeting convened by the Preston Amal-
gamated Trades Council is to be held at the Preston
Theatre to-day to consider the wages question. On
Sunday a meeting of delegates from the operative
weavers in Lancashire was held in the same town.
After a discussion of two hours, resolutions were
passed recommending that the proposed reduction of
wages should be referred to ten arbitrators, five
representing the masters, five the operatives, with an
umpire ; that if this be not agreed upon the opera-
tives should go out on strike, and light rs long as
they are able, and that each district should do
its best to collect money to carry out this resolu-
tion.

PRIVATE PROPERTY AT SEA.
The lately-elected member for Oxford is as diffuse
in his Communications to the 7'imes as of yore ; but
while " Historicus" as honoured with large type,
" 'Vernon Harcourt" vas
to content himself with
ordinary lettering. He has now got into a discus-
sion with the Economist on the question whether
nations at war should capture or respect private
p:Dperty at sea belonging to the enemy. Mr. Har-
court's original argument was that war should be
made as horrible as possible ; that every class
in each nation should be made to suffer
during the conflict ; so that everybody should
be concerned in averting it. The shipping
interest, therefore, must be liable to be seriously
damaged. To this the Economist agrees so far as the
general principle is concerned, but objects to its
application. Icy Mr. Harcourt's provision, the
enemy has the power to ruin a very small class, but
the nation at large is not affected. Mr. Harcourt is
challenged to show that, seeing that neutrals may
carry enemies' property, there is any kind of appre-
ciable addition to the national burdens by allowing
the capture of enemies' vessels. Mr. Harcourt replies
that the class he would make war afflict has a great
influence. " 'When hostilities are threatened it is of
great political consequence to have the shipowning
interest adverse to war. That war will ever be
declared by any Government in this country, contrary
to the voice of the three members for Liverpool and
the three members for Glasgow, is a thing which I
shall not believe till I see it. I believe the idea of
reducing war to a military and naval duel between
armies and fleets is as chimerical and less humane
than the romantic project of chivalry to settle the
fate of the Moslem and the Christian by a single
combat between Saladin and Richard. These two
nations are locked in the deadly embrace of war,
whether they be fighting for empire or struggling
for independence. They will deal the fatal blow with
every weapon which fortune places within their
grasp: Passion is deaf, patriotism is unscrupulous,
cruel. To attempt to disarm war of its
horrorsfa :is an idle dream and a dangerous delusion ;
let us labour at the more practicable task of rendering
arsp is
it impossible."

UNIVERSITY TESTS BILL.

Mr. Luard, of the Cambridge University Registry,
has sent to the Times some interesting information
with regard to the tests now required at -Cambridge.
The only one demanded is for a divinity degree, but
if a person desires to have a vote in the Senate, he
has to sign a declaration that he is a bond
fide member of the Church of England.
All those admitted to permanent offices in the Uni-
versity sign a statement to the effect that they will
conform to the Church of England as by law esta-
blished. Those who are not members of the Church
of England are not entitled to votes in the Senate
upon taking the degree of M.A., or any other degree
that confers the same privilege.

A NEW PEERAGE.

The Siar makes without qualification the state-
ment that Sir John Lawrence, the late Governor-
General of India, will, when he reaches this country,
be raised to the peerage. Our contemporary gives
no authority for this statement, but it is likely to be
correct in its announcement, as a seat in the Upper
House is considered a complement of the Indian
Viceroyship.

THE REportm LEAGUE.

The Reform Leaguers have taken a very wise
course. They have reconsidered their decision to hold
together as long as possible, and have rescinded it.
That they have fulfilled a certain mission no one
denies—this even the Standard admits. But it is
very angry with the Liberal party for allowing them
to do the work and letting them go without reward.
They gave the nation democracy, but democracy would
have nothing to say to them. Not a man of them was
returned at the election ; and Mr. Beales has had
no attention bestowed upon him, except by the Lord
Chief Justice, who took away his revising barrister-
ship. The Standard points out also that the League
was formed to agitate for manhood suffrage, and is
satisfied with less. Mr. Howell's answer to this is
that he and his friends were opposed to the elections
being conducted by a class. The suffrage is no
longer a class suffrage. The nation has to thank the
Leigue for its formation. for the work it did, and for
shutting its doors when the work was done. As for
‘ reward " the work must be, and doubtless is, its own.

PAWNBROKERS AND HABITUAL CRIMINALS.

A "Liverpool Pawnbroker" writes on the subject of
the Criminal Bill now before the House of Lords,
and declares that his class is unjustly dealt with in
being associated with the habitual criminals of this
country. A great difference exists between
respectable pawnbrokers and the keepers of leaving-
shops. The writer declares that the pawnbroker
and his assistants often lend valuable aid to the
cause of justice. Another correspondent on
the same subject declares that the bill will
affect the numerous class of necessitous persons
who have dealings with the pawnbroker. He refers
to statistics to shew that there is no necessity for the
proposed change in the law, and declares that in his
own business there were taken in during the year
upwards of 70,000 pledges, and only four out of that
number were stolen. He adds that pawnbrokers do
not deserve to be legislated for as receivers of stolen
property.

ANGLO-BELGIAN PRIZE FUND.

His Grace the Duke oI Wellington, K.G., has
kindly arranged to preside at the second annual
meeting of the Anglo-Belgian Prize Fund, which is
to be held to-morrow (Wednesday), at 4.30 p.m., in
Mr. C. Mercier's studio, 21, Albert-gate, Hyde-park.
In addition to the ordinary business the engraving
from the picture of the King of the Belgians
(painted by Mr. C. iMercier) will be submitted for
inspection, it being now quite finished. It is also
intended to pass a special address of condolence to
his Majesty on his late bereavement.
The progress of the Anglo-Belgian Prize Fund,
as shown by the report of the committee, is most
satisfactory, and it is confidently anticipated that
its success will continue. The position occupied
by the Prince of Wales on the committee guaran-
tees this. But we must not lose sight of the fact
that it is by the sale of the engravings of the
King's picture that the funds are to be realised. A.
word or two, therefore, with respect to these
engravings and the picture will not be out of place.
The picture has been spoken of most highly by our
English and foreign contemporaries. The engrav-
ing is said to reproduce its best qualities. The
special distinction, however, which will attach to
the engraving is the unprecedented fact that
the superior proofs, appropriately designated
" Royal proofs," will each bear the King's written
autograph.

THE IRISH CHURCH.

Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply to Mr. Bentiuck, said he
had no means of obtaining a return of the sum of money
which would be required to purchase the sites of the
ecclesiastical residences under the provisions of the 27th
clause of the Irish Church Bill. With respect to the
value of the private endowments, it was also impossible to
make a return, as the matter was so purely conjectural.

THE POLICE FORCE.
Mr. HUGGESON, in reply to Viscount Enfield, said it
had been decided to appoint four district departments,
which would obviate the necessity of officers from all
parts of the metropolis coming to Scotland yard for in-
structions. He thought that great public convenience
would result from the appointments.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CRUELTY TO 'lonsEs.—John Syme, a carman, in the
employ of Mr. Tyler, of Great Earl-street, Seven-dials,
was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with working a horse
in an unfit state.

A constable proved seeing the defendant driving a horse
attached to a cart laden with sand, in Coventry-street,
and seeing that the horse was in an unfit condition for
work, took the defendant into custody.
George Young, officer of the Royal Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals described the horde as
having several sores about it, and being so lame of the
near fore-leg that it was scarcely able to drag it along.
The defendant said ho had brought a load of sand from

Brompton.
Young said that the owner of the horse had been pro-
ceeded against by the society, and several times con-

victed.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said that the only thing he could say for
the defendant was that he was poor, and did not care
what he did so long us he got something. There were men
who did not care more for horses than a piece of wood,
so long as they could get them to go. The defendant
would have to pay a fine of 10s., and for his consolation he
would inform him that his master would be summoned by
the society for sending out the horse.

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE BOAT RACE.

PrTICEY, 1.30 p.m.

Although the absence of Mr. Mellor from the Oambridge
boat has been generally looked upon as detrimental to
theii chance of success, we have a contrary opinion. tlr.
Still, his successor, brings with him the experience of
three years' good form, and if he be not in thorough con-
dition, he is better a little too fleshy than too finely
trained.
The Cantabs went out in pairs this morning, Mr. Geo.
Morrison stearing. They will take to the eight at 3.30.
The Oxonians went out at 12, accompanied by Mr. R.
W. Risley, their coach ; he took them on the head of low
water as far as the top of the E orseshoe Bight, opposite
Craven, and on their coming down against the flood
the crew rowed as high as 41 strokes per minute
beautifully. They eased 200 yards above the boathouses
and then paddled home. The rowing w.as splendid, and,
if we may particularise, that of Messrs. Benson, Finite,
and Willan was very near perfection. The crew show
great pace when asked to do so, and with it they combine
elegance of rowing to perfection of swing, and all catch
hold of the water at the right part of the stroke.
