COURTS-MARTIAL CO.2II3IISSIOY.

The first report of the Commissioners to inquire into the
Constitution and Practice of Courts-Martial in the Army has
been presented to both Homes of Parliament by command
of her Majesty. The Commissioners delay the final report,
but make suggestions respecting the present system of
punishments fur military offences. Penal servitude is the
most severe form of punishment in use, and it is advised that
recourse be had to it, only in those cases which demand d's-
missal from the army. With regard to the discipline main-
tained in military pthons, the commissioners are of
opinion that the prisoners should not be associated. They
recommend that a central military priso❑ he established, and
that it should be worked upon the " separate system." All
the punishments for repressing drunkenness have hitherto
proved ineffectual. A punishment by fine has been sug-
gested, and the Commissioners concur in this opinion. With
respect to the punishment of non-commissioned officers
they advise that the rule may be to a certain extent relaxed,
which reduces them to the ranks upon being tried by court—
martial.

:CLIE 157411'1i ().Z LIE COUNTY OF
TIPERRARY,

-
Baron Deasy, in opening the commission for the Sotiiii
Riding of Tipperary, a few days back, referred to the un-
satisfactory state of the county. Ile observed that the
calendar gave but an imperfect idea of its real condition.
Shortly after the last assizes two men had been shot dead
and several others fired upon at Ballycohey, but none of
the persons concerned in the crime had been made amen-
able to justice. Shortly afterwards the public were shocked
by the murder of Mr. Baker in his own demesne, near
Bansha. In that case, too, no one had been brought
to justice. That was a lamentable state of things.
It produced a feeling of insecurity among all classes, and
society became disorganised. He attributed the failure of
justice to one of three causes, he could not say which—
sympathy with the offender, sympathy with the crime, or
terrorism, which closed the mouth of witnesses. He
expressed a hope that every effort would be made to vin-
dicate the law. He found by the constabulary returns
that no fewer than eleven threatening letters had been
received by persons residing in the Riding. One gentle-
man had been threatened with death if he continued to
make himself so conspicuous by his exertions as a
magistrate to discover the murderer of Mr. Baker.
His lordship alluded to other outrages, and remarked
that the state of the Riding presented a sad contrast to
its condition during his former visit to it. He added :
" Then tranquillity appeared to exist, but now it appears
Lhat beneath the surface there lay a spirit of lawlessness
n d turbulence which has developed into open crime. I
nnot tell to what we are to attribute this turbulence.
It cannot be to distress or pressure, for the last harvest
as admittedly an abundant one. There are no wrongs
tinredressed. There must be some other cause for this
state of things, although I cannot discover what it is."
It may be observed that, in opening the Commission
twelve months ago, Mr. Justice O'Brien congratulated the
grand jury upon the tranquil' state of the county, as
*hewn by the calendar and confirmed by the reports of
the county inspector. There were then only twenty-two
cases for trial ; whereas in the previous year there were
eighty-two. When opening the commission at Mullingar,
Chief Justice Monahan offered similar felicitations. The
revival of crime in these and other counties this year must
be a matter of deep concern to everyone who desires the
welfare of the country.

INDIAN FINANCE.

Mr. Massey, ea-Finance Minister of India, writes
that the mode in which the Indian accounts are
made up renders it impossible to exhibit an intelli-
gible result of the financial year in a short telegram.
We know that the estimated deficit was £1,020,404,
and that the real deficit is £2,801,244 • but we do
not know how this difference of £1,800,000 (in round
numbers) is made up. No doubt it comprises various
charges which could not have been included in the
Budget in March last—such as disbursements on
account of the apprehended drought, and advances
to Shere Ali, together, possibly, with payments
on account of the purchase of the interest of the
East India Irrigation Company, and other items
which will ultimately be repaid. We must, there-
fore, wait for the detailed figures before we can form
any opinion as to the present financial condition
and prospects of India. In the meantime, it is
certain that the proceeds of the opium revenue
fully sustain the regular estimate of 1807-8, and are
considerably in excess of the Budget estimate of
1808-9.

SPAIN.

The Madrid correspondent of the Independance Beige
notes that the candidature of the Duke of Montpensier
is making extraordinary progress. Public opinion, both in
the upper and lower grades of society, is becoming
equally`' favourable to the brother-in-law of the
deposed sovereign. " Everyone is now convinced
that as soon as -„the Duke of Montpensier ascends
the democratic throne of Spain, a new era of
peace, prosperity, and liberty will be inaugurated in this
country—so utterly trampled down during a long series of
years." The Paris correspondent of the same journal
is decisive, though less enthusiastic. He believes
that Dom Fernando would have been preferred, but as he
will positively not accept the crown, the Duke must inevi•
tably become King.
The Patrie publishes some strange news. An attempt,
it says, was made the other day, at Madrid, to poison six
thousand soldiers, stationed at the barrack of Guardia.

" The attempt was frustrated by the vigilance of an
officer." This week the same barrack was set on fire in
four places, and a great conflagration was produced. The
Patric is awaiting further details, which seem to be
required.

INDIAN AFFAIRS.

The Duke of Argyll, Secretary of State for India, has
instreceived a deputationof members of Parliament, mem-
bers of Chambers of Commerce, and other gentlemen from
Manchester and the manufacturing districts generally,
who waited on his Grace for the purpose of presenting
memorials urging the policy of increasing the agencies by
which India could be made a cotton-growing country, and
praying that the means of irrigation and navigation and
transit generally should be extended. -- The Duke
of Argyll said he agreed with those who had
urged that there should be a considerable com-
mercial element in the Indian Council. It had
been arranged when the constitution of that body had
been remodelled that seven of its members should be
elected by the directors and eight by the Crown. As it
had been also provided that some of them should have
practical knowledge of India, the desideratum sought had
been to a certain extent obtained. He mentioned the
names of Mr. Arbuthnot and Mr. M`Na,ghten as those of
gentlemen who had a thorough knowledge of the commer-
cial affairs of India. Some of the members of the Council
who had at one time been connected with the East India
Companyweie most go-ahead as regarded the promotion of
public improvement in India. As an instance of liberal deal-
ing with Indian affairs, he would mention that some time ago
it had been urgel that Darwar should be opened up as a
cotton-growing district. His predecessor had asked for
information on the subjeA, and as that information had
not yet arrived, he had himself made inquiries, and having
.ascertained that there was a strong pri2nd, facie case in
favour of the project specified, he had given instructions
that a surveyor should be sent out to make the neces-
ary examination. It was to be remembered that
Government stood in a peculiar position as regarded
land in India. It was the owner to a certain extent ;
to that extent, however, there was a definite limit. The
commercial classes should remember what a wide field for
private enterprise existed in India. It was a great mis-
fortune that the aid of Government should be looked for in
almost every instance ; scarcely a fence could be built in
India without a claim for Government assistance. This,
as he had intimated, was an unfortunate state of things
which bad been developed by a system of grants and gua-
rantees. It was unfortunate for the agricultural prosperity
of India that natural manure was to a large extent in that
country used for fuel.—The deputation then withdrew.

ment either through himself or the Chancellor of the

THE' FATAL EXPLOSION AT
PIRMINGLEAM.

:Auther of the men injured by the explosion has died,
'Making five who have succumbed through the injuries they
received. It will be remembered that young Forrest, the son
of the manager of the works was the man who swam, or rather
waded across the canal and then ran home. It is said by seve-
ral people who saw him as ho raa towards his home that he
presented a sickening spectacle, the flesh hanging from him
as he ran. He was 37 years of age, and leaves a widow and
six children. Rollaston's is a particularly distressing case.
Ho was only 26 years of age. He had given notice and was
going to leave the works on Saturday, his intention being
to get married on the Sunday, and on the following day
he was going into possession of a business at Dudley.
The lad Bastable, who was injured, states that he was
blown a considerable distance by the force of the
boiler which exploded, but that he closed his eyes,
and thinking it was safer anywhere than where he was
thrown, he ran with all his ;tight, and so escaped
with his life, but not without very severe injuries. It
is confidently hoped, however, that his injuries will
not result fatally. The other persons injured are receiving
every attention necessary, and are gradually recovering.
.An inquest was opened on Thursday afternoon, and after
the bodies had been identified the coroner adjourned the in-
quiry until Friday next.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ROBBERY AT THE LONDON PAVILION.— TIIOMaS Mills, a
lad, was charged with stealing a spoon and fork, the pro •
perty of Messrs. Loi!,l and Sonharnmer, of the London
Pavilion Music Hall.

---
Mr. Philip Fry, pawnbroker and salesman, of No. 2,
Crown-street, Soho, said the prisoner came to his shop
and showed him a spoon and a fork as a sample of some
he wanted to sell. He said he got the articles from the
London Pavilion, and that ho wanted Os. for them ; that
ho had packed up some spoons and forks ready for re-
moval, but that ho could not bring th 3m away till twelve
at night, as at that time the people were leaving the place,
and every one was bugy, and that the way he got away
with the articles was by going down stairs into the bowl-
ing alley, and then working his way into a little court that
took him into SVitdu►ill-street. He detained the prisoner,
and gave him into custody.

Mr. Charles Souhanuner identified the articles produced
as his property, and said that the, prisuuer had been em-
ployed for a day bottling beer, and in consequence hal
access to the place where the spoons and forks were kept
fur the purpose of being cleaned.
Police-constable, 19 F 11, said that he went to No. 2,
Crown-street, at the request of Mr. Fry's daughter, and
on asking the prisoner fur the spoons and forks he denied
all knowledge of them.
The prisoner said it was his first offence.

Mr. finox said the worst part of the case was that, a
large number of persons being employed at the place,
others might have been implicated by the prisoner's
conduct. The prisoner would be committed for three
months' with hard labour.

THE COBDEN C 1,1313.

The Cobden Club have chosen an admirable sub-
ject for their next prize essay—" Free Trade in its
Relations to the Dependencies and Colonies of Great
Britain." One of the most remarkable political
features of the day is the extensive adoption of Pro-
tection by our colonies, as well as by the United
States. This is done, not in ignorance of the prin-
ciples of political economy, as was done before 1846
in this country, but with open eyes. The colonists
never urge the fallacy which used to be heard
five and twenty years ago, that it is the consumer,
not the producer, who pays the duty. Australians
and Americans know well enough that by putting Pro-
tectionist duties on English produce they have to
pay more heavily for it. Nevertheless they levy
these duties, and they do so, as they say, in order
that they may build up a manufacturing class of
their own, which for a time must have protection, or
it would not be able to compete with England. They
do this also in order to check immigration and pre-
vent themselves from being swamped by the " pauper
labour "of England. The essayist who will shew
that even on these grounds Protection is a failurc
will deserve the gold medal offered by the Cobder.

INDIAN FINANCE.

Air. Massey, ex-Finance Minister of India, writes
that the mode in which the Indian accounts are
made up renders it impossible to exhibit an intelli-
gible result of the financial year in a short telegram.
We know that the estimated deficit was £1,026,494,
and that the real deficit is £2,801,244 ; but we do
not know how this difference of £1,800,000 (in round
numbers)
charges which could not have been included in the
is made up. No doubt it comprises various
to Shere AR,
Budget in March last—such as disbursements on
account of the apprehended drought, and advances
on account of the purchase of the interest of the
together, possibly, with payments
East India Irrigation Company, and other items
which will ultimately be repaid. We must, there-
fore, wait for the detailed figures before we can form
any opinion as
and prospects of India. In the meantime, it is
to the present financial condition
certain that the proceeds of the opium revenue
considerably in
fully sustain the regular estimate of 1867-8, and are
1868-9. excess of the Budget estimate of

TUE DAY OF ECONOMIES

Attention is called to a piece of lavish expenaiture.
which the War Department is said to be about to
make. In consequence of the inconveniently early
hour at which the Foot Guards quartered at Windsor
ar% compelled to attend Trinity Church, it was some
time since determined to erect a new church near
the Osborne-road, for the especial accommodation of
the military garrison. As it seems rather prepos-
terous to build a new church to save officers the
trouble of getting up early once a week, it would be
worth the while of sonic M.P. to inquire whether the
erection of a new church could not be postponed
until the national finances are in a more flourishing
state.

GERUANT.

The Chancellor of the North-German Confederation
has submitted a new electoral law to the Federal Parlia-
ment, which has just been opened. This important mea-
sure proposes to substitute a uniform franchise for the
various provisions at present in force in the different
States. Universal suffrage is to be the principle of the
change. Every citizen not under 25 years of age, in the
enjoyment of civil and political rights, is eligible as a voter
for the State where he resides. Every citizen, too, is
eligible on the same conditions for election as a deputy to
the Federal Parliament. The Confederation will be
divided into districts in the proportion of one deputy for
every fifty thousand inhabitants.
