INNOVATIONS.

What are we coming to ? Mr. Childers has
actually ordered copying presses to be introduced
at Chatham Dockyard. Hitherto a large number
of clerks have been kept to copy letters at
from £2 to £3 a week. One press, costing
about £3, will enable the Admiralty to dis-
pense with a dozen or a score of these. Of course,
any other establishment than one belonging to the
Government would have adopted the mechanical
arrangement years ago. But the idea of likening
our dockyards to any ordinary business concern is so
revolutionary that old-fashioned politicians, aghast
I at the innovation, may well ask " Where shall we
stop ? " After all, the householders' Parliament

onr
eowi
nttheerediscussion
as
n it
has been for years, " S. G. 0.," the great champion
of the Low Church party, lit's been most inexpli-
cably silent. Ile seems, indeed, to have turned his
attention to another subject altogether; and he now
comes forward to swell the rimes of those who aro
writing so prolifically on the subject of pauperism
and crime. In a long letter to the Times he adds
very little to what has been said before. It does not
follow, he says, that pauperism must beget crime,
for there are offenders against Divine and human
laws among those who pay the rates, as well as
among those who come on them ; but the public
feeling is more alive to the crime of the pauper than
it is to the offence of the rich man. We are for-
giving as a nation to any villany which takes the form
of a commercial transaction, but very indignant
with the villany which takes our property without
the pretence of bargaining. We are at our wit's
end to know how to stop the spread of pauperism,
and the only remedy that can be efficacious must
ascertain its cause. Unless this be done emigration
will afford only a temporary relief, and the evil will
not be eradicated. Concerning the doubtful
characters at large among us, "S. G. 0." observes
that it is justifiable to legislate with regard to what
a man intends, when he is known to live by sheer
criminal industry. All the time that we are deploring
the increase of paupers and of criminals, we are
neglecting to seek out the spots where men, women,
and children are bred to a vermin life ; but, if we
went to the root of the evil, and tried to diminish
this dangerous breed of beings, we should interpose
a more effectual check on their proceedings than if
we increased the number of the Poor-law
officials or incited the police to greater activity. So
long as the dwelling question is neglected, the many
efforts that are made by religious and charitable
persons to afford relief, and the legal apparatus for
the prevention of crime, will be found ineffectual.
The nation has yet to make intimate acquaintance
with the condition of those classes who now excite
• so much attention as paupers and as criminals, and
while much has been written on the true causes of
the degradation of the poor, our ruling powers have
made no effort to deal with them.

JOINT-STOCK BANKS.

The Daily News is on the whole well content with
the half-yearly reports of the joint-stock banks. They
have not made large profits, but they have not lost
money. Taking seven large banks—the London and
Westminster, Union, London Joint Stock, Consoli-
dated, City Bank, Alliance, and Imperial—the total
dividends shew an increase of 8,1 per cent., as com-
pared with last year's, though for the halt-year there
was a slight falling off. The acceptances have
increased by about two millions and a half, but the
deposits have fallen by over three millions. There
is one point to which the Daily News
directs attention the practice of leaving a
great part of the cash r.sPrves at call. Our
contemporary has little hope of persuading the
bankers to alter this arrangement. " They have not
been taught by the lesson of Overend, Gurney, and
Co. of the peril of this system, and it is little use to
pursue the subject further until some new catastrophe
brings it home with force."

THE WAR IN NEW ZEALAND.

In contrast to the horrible story of the massacre at
Poverty Bay, it is satisfactory to find that at last the New
Zealand authorities are energetically striving to retrieve
their past errors. According to the latest news
from the colony, a New Zealand officer of militia
was recruiting in Victoria with considerable suc-
cess. By December 14th it was expected that he
would be able to despatch to the North Island 200 active,
hardy men, who would deem a brush with the formidable
savages a relief from the dullness of Victorian life. Small
reinforcements are arriving from the Middle Island, and
it is proposed to raise a body of the miners, who
are both numerous and fully competent to the pe-
culiar labour of New Zealand warfare. The Mel-
bourne Argus justly remarks that this assistance
will not avail unless the European population of the
troubled districts pluck up spirit, and do battle on their
own behalf. "Heretofore, we regret to say, they have
not maintained their own cause as they should have done.
The position of settlers among hostile native tribes is
necessarily full of danger, and men who are not prepared
to fight have no business to take up that position." The
Sydney Herald holds the British Government responsible
for the recent calamities ; but the Argus replies that it
was at the colonists' desire that the onus of the Maori war
was thrown upon themselves. What is more, it is quite
within their power to carry on the conflict vigorously,
and bring it to a successful issue.

seems to be something different from its prede-

cessor.
Simultaneously with this radical change—this
invasion of the copying press—we hear of another
innovation. The recent Government order about
bankrupt officials is not to be mere brut um fulmen.
One of the established clerks in the storekeeper's
department at Chatham has been suspended, it is
believed preparatory to dismissal, for having become
insolvent.

SUNDAY'S SERVICES IN RITUALIST CHURCHES.

If our London contemporaries mean to report the
ritualist services from Monday to Monday, they
had better get " coached" in their subject by some
one competent to perform that task. So will they
save themselves from many ludicrous blunders. The
omniscient Daily Telegraph, for instance, speaks of
the credence and the re-table as the same thing, and
says that seven lamps were burning before the altar
at St. Alban's because it was Septuagesima
Sunday! The same paper states that Mr.
Maclonochie was the preacher, while the Times men-
tions Mr. Stanton, and from its description of the
sermon and of him who delivered it, there can be no
doubt that Jupiter Senior was right. Both papers
seem greatly impressed with the great earnestness of
the people and the reporter of the Times, whose
animus was clearly not of the most friendly
character, confesses, with something like astonish-
ment, that " the congregation included a very
large number of the upper class of tradesmen," and
" it is clear that the services at St. Alban's are found
to be attractive to great numbers of the middle
class,and apparently they are more popular with them en
than even with the women." More than one member
of Parliament was present, and at the bottom of the
church was Father Ignatius in his monastic dress.
The altar-lights were extinguished at the Communion
Service; but seven pendant lamps are kept constantly
burning before the altar—a symbol whose meaning
is not very apparent, unless Mr. Mackonochie should
violate one of the rubrics by " reserving " the
Sacrament. At St. Peter's, London Docks, Mr.
Lowder's service was of the most elaborate kind.
Procession, acolytes, altar-lights, incense, genu-
flexions, and prostrations, just as though no judg-
ment had been given. At St. Mary Magdalene's,
Paddington, the altar-lights were used; at St.
Barnabas', Pimlico (Mr. Bennett's old church) they
were not.
London, England, 1869-01-26

TAXATION AND RATING.

That our present system of taxing and rating must
soon be reviewed seems to be now generally admitted.
The only question is in what way shall a change be
M i
made. The "
Manchester party " love the income
tax, and Mr. Gladstone's Ministry do not seem to
have any great horror of that mode of raising the
revenue, if we may believe the report that the
" Abyssinian 2d." is to be retained. Another change
which has long been called for by the same school of
politicians is that the land should be called upon to pay
a little more. In a discussion on the poor rate in the
Warwickshire Chamber of Agriculture a day or two
back, the Earl of Camperdown referred to the sub-
ject, and protested against the proposal to make the
land pay all the poor rates ; but he acknowledged that
a general ignorance prevailed as to whether the land
at present was paying two-thirds or comparatively
nothing of the rates and taxes. He therefore thought
aninquiry into the subject would be naturally
beneficial. Mr. Newdegate and Mr. Muntz, M.P.'s,
also gave it as their opinion that inquiry was wanted,
the former announcing that if Sir Massey Lopes
brought forward a motion on this subject he would
support him. Mr. Muntz, however, protested against
any more burdens being put on the land, on account
of the dicouragement which it was to persons pos-
sessing money to invest it in the improvement of
land or property, as the assessment would be propor-
tionately increased, whilst the money would be
exempt from rates if invested in the funds or in
shares.

Mr. Wm. Peacock, of Barnsley, writing to the
Times on a collateral subject, demands the rating of
mines. He draws attention to the district of Cleve-
land, where the owners of the ironstone workings
must have netted—as he calculates—no less than
£1,000,000. The working men around are compara-
tively poor, and it is on them the burden of the
rates has fallen. He asks whether this should have
been so.

GERMANY.

Letters in the Moniteur depict in very sombre colours
the results of Prussian rule in North Schleswig. Prussia
has ruled the duchy for eighteen months, but she has not
succeeded in satisfying its inhabitants. The tutorship of
the bureaucracy is especially distasteful to the Danes. An
amusilg story of the hostility between the two races is
given the Paris journal. A society of Flensburg recently
gave a b,lnquet, at which a Prussian military band kindly
attended. During speechmaking the Emperor Napoleon
and the Kalg of Denmark were included amongst the toasts;
the Prussian band, not understanding what was going on in
Danish, striking up a lively air on each occasion. It has
been forbidden to attend any more banquets.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, Jan. 26.

The Presse of to-day says that the Turkish Go-
vernment has instructed its foreign representatives
to state that the rumours of extensive warlike pre-
parations in Turkey are exaggerated. The Otto-
man Government was certainly compelled to take
some precautionary steps in view of the serious
events which might occur, but no measures of an
extraordinary character have been adopted. The
Porte has no fears that peace will be disturbed.

AMERICA•

QUEENSTOWN, Jan. 26.

The royal mail steamer Aleppo, from New York,
arrived here to-day at 8.50 a.m., with forty passen-
gers and $7,000 in specie. She landed passengers,
&c., and proceeded at 9 a.m. All well.

Victor Hugo, on being asked by M. Alfred Serven
if the report were true that he was going to start a news-
paper, replied—" A false report, my dear friend. I have, as
you know, pledged myself never to co-operate with any
French political paper until American, or, at least English,
liberty prevails in France."
Great preparations are being made by Mr. Ash-
bury to enable .the Cambria to meet the yachts of New
York next summer. Sbe has been hauled into dock to
have three tons of lead attached to her keel, and her masts
lengthened three feet. Other alterations, to bring out
every quality of sailing she possesses, will be made, and if
she is beaten no Britisher can deny that she fairly repre-
sents the yachts of England.
An attaché of th 3 American Legation at Paris
had to knock the heads together of two French policemen
who insolently refused him permission to enter the French
Chambers, about to be opened, to witness the ceremony,
last Monday. On his card being produced, however, the
officers of the law changed their tone, and the misun-
derstanding, perhaps, grew out of the Attache's ignor-
ance of French.

A Paris correspondent says:—The sudden death
of the young Countess do niece of M. Ferdinand
de Lessops, has excited much sympathy in the great
world. The countess went out as usual to drive in the
Buis, on Tuesday, and a fly bit her nose. Before returning
home, inflammation had set in. Nelaton was summoned;
he decided that amputation of the nose was necessary.
The operation took place ; gangrene set in, the poison hav-
ing already spread through the whole system, and within
twelve hours the young countess expired.

INDIA.

The Earl and Countess of Mayo sailed for Madras on
the morning of December 30th, after a week of gaiety and
sight-seeing in the Bombay Presidency. At Poonah there
was a grand review and levee, the Viceroy being accom-
panied by Lord Napier of Magdala ; at Broach there was
an exhibition of industry and agriculture, which seems to
have been remarkably successful ; and at Bombay there
was the usual round of balls and receptions. The new
Viceroy has set to work to " get up" the country which
he is to govern. He has inspected the manufactures and
defences of Bombay, while the Countess has gone the round
of the schools and visited the principal native ladies. The
Times of India observes that Lord Mayo is resolved to
spare no pains in order to enter upon the duties of his
high station with as intimate and varied a knowledge of
the country as opportunity will allow. He received two
deputations—one from the Chamber of Commerce, and
one from the Bombay Association—and to both of these
he accorded such a reception as has left upon their minds
a very favourable impression as to his character and
ability, and led them to anticipate many substantial
benefits to India from his rule.

The conference between Lord Mayo and the Bombay
Chamber of Commerce lasted nearly two hours. The
deputation pressed upon his lordship the necessity of at
once taking action in the great public questions upon
which the prosperity of India depends. Trade languishes
in many districts owing to a total want of roads; railways
are much needed, and the lack of irrigation is itself the
cause of famine. Lord Mayo entered into an animated
discussion on these topics, and assured the Camber that
his attention should in particular be given to the primary
necessities of railways, roads, and irrigation.
The mail brings a very melancholy bulletin of pestilence
and famine. Smallpox is raging in three large districts,
and bronchitis is prevalent to a remarkable extent in
another. Arcot, in Madras, is likely soon to be added to
the long list of famine-stricken provinces, in which the
severity of distress is in no respect diminished. Relief
works have, however, been undertaken in some districts,
and will speedily be established for the benefit of all.
We have not yet, it seems, heard the last of the Mutiny.
The Indian papers state that the sentence of death passed
upon Meer Hadjee, the murderer of Captain Douglas and
others on the 11th of May, 1857, has been confirmed, and
the convict will be executed at Delhi, near the scene of his
crimes.
