THE SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH.—We have much
pleasure in announcing that the direct communication be-
tween London and Paris was yesterday re-established.

It is understood that the next Deputy-Governor
of the Bank of England will be Mr. Alfred Latham, of the
firm of Arbuthnot, Latham, and Co. The successor of 3tr:..
Sheffield Neave as Governor will be Mr. Bonamy Dobreei
the present Deputy-Governor. The election takes place in
April.

FALSE LIGHTS.—A vessel called the James,
bound from Newfoundland to Bristol, and thence to Cork, •
with a cargo of fish, was abandoned on the night of Sunday,
the 31st ult., under somewhat novel circumstances. Sho
happened to be at the time off Youghal harbour, and it being
All-Hallows Eve a number of lights were burning along the
hills in honour of the festival. By these lights the master
of the ship states that he was led astray, and he said his
crew took to the boats and abandoned their charge. When
they got ashore they were met by the people to whom they
communicated the circumstance. Those parties immediately
went off in the boats, found the ship, took charge of her
and carried her safely into Youghal. Many complaints have
from time to time been made of the practice of lighting fires
on the hills around the coast, and it is one fraught with
annoyance and danger to seamen.
THE TEMPLE-GARDENS.—The fame which these
gardens have acquired for the autumnal display of chry-
santhemums they offer to the gaze of the citizens of the
metropolis is not likely to suffer by their present- appear-
ance. On the occasion of a recent visit, however, we could
not but remark the difference of aspect presented by the two
adjacent establishments known collectively to the public as
the Temple-gardens, and belonging respectively to the Hon,
Societies of the Middle and Inner Temple. The display at
the garden of the Inner Temple, under the management of
Mr. Broome, consisted of an extensive plantation, in which
liberal treatmenti and pruned stems had resulted in the
production of fine foliage and large handsome individual
flowers, but as a whole scarcely sufficiently striking,
and the various other plantations in the garden were
even somewhat less attractive, having been, we under-
stand, planted late and being much injured by recent
high winds and frosts, to which, from its larger size,
this garden is the more exposed of the two. Some very
well managed pot plants, trained to form a broad flat
surface, have also suffered from the same causes. In the
garden of the Middle Temple, from its more sheltered posi-
tion and less extent, a totally different aspect presented
itself ; with no lack of fine individual blossoms, the
gardener, Mr. Dale, had so managed his plants that the
whole was one mass of flower. The outer borders were
planted with taller kinds behind and dwarfer in front,
the latter being so arranged that without distortion the
foliage and blossoms were continued down to the surface
of the ground, the whole forming a richly variegated bank
of blossoms of all colours, such as the chrysanthemums
alone could furnish. We were also much pleased with
some dwarfed plants in beds ; in these, though a display of
spring and early summer flowers had been provided, yet
the beds were in most instances completely furnished, and
even the branches rising from 1 foot to 11 or 2 feet in the
centre, gradually decreasing to the sides, and the whole
covered with blossoms in such a way as would delight the
heart of a modern flower gardener. Some larger circular
beds were rather taller in the centre, and were planted
in sections of different colours, showing an even sur-
face of bloom which was highly effective. Mr. Dale
deserves great praise for his successful adoption of this
feature of arrangement, on which, with increased experi-
ence, he will doubtless improve another season. Among
the arge flowered sorts Queen of England was properly
supreme, and Cassy, Madame Poggi, Beauty, and Astrolobo
were ',conspicuous. The small or Pcnmone varieties, which
were most attractive in the massed beds and mixed borders
were argentium, a white which keeps for a long time ;
Adonis, Drin Drin, a capital early flower ; Dr. Boisduval,
Aurora Borealis, President Decaisne, Helene, Bob (rather
later the foregoing, but promising to be fine), Cedo Nulli,
and Pearl, th latter a light rosy lilac everywhere conspicu-
ous in the banks of mixed colours.—Gardener's Chronicle.
A SCOTCH BAILIE ON THE BENCH.—In a town not
many miles from the Clyde, where a batch of municipal
authorities was elected last week, one of the new bellies
presided the other day, for the first time, on the bench.
One of the earliest cases brought before him was that of a
servant girl who sued her mistress for her wages, which
were refused on the ground that she had allowed a favourite
squirrel to escape from its cage. The worthy magistrate,
after hearing the parties, said, "that although the lass was
maybe to blame for leaving the cage door open, yet the
mistress was mair to blame than her, for she sud hao clippit
the beast's wings, sae that it cudna flee awn' !"
ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.—At a meeting
of the Council of the Royal College of Surgeons of England
e
held on Thursday last, November 11th, Mr. Green, th
President, was elected as the representative of the College
of the new Medical Act. The choic.was.

the much esteemed gentleman who was proposed on
occasion. This election will excite strong feelings of sur-
prise amongst many thousands of the members of the Col-
lege, who firmly entertain the opinion, that the choice
of a representative for the Medical Council rests with
the whole body of the College, and cannot therefore
be exercised exclusively by the Council. Acting
on this view, a deputation of members waited on Mr.
Brady, M.P., on Thursday morning, and requested that he
would allow his name to be hoisted as that of the members'
candidate. The hon. gentleman consented ; and in the even-
ing, when informed' that the council had made choic.3 of a

their number, and having greatly assisted in promoting the
success of the Medical Act, we believe that bis election.
would be carried byan enormous majority of the voters. His
possession of a seat in the House of Comm( nm would render
his position in the Medical Council one of much weight and
importance.—Lancet.

ACADEMY OF SCIENCES.—At the last sitting M.
Dumeril read a report on a paper lately presented to the
Academy by M. Lespes, concerning the organs of hearing
in insects. The reporter stated that hitherto naturalists
had been of different opinions, not so much on the existence
of the sense of hearing in insects, as on the region where
the organs of that sense were situated. The majority of
writers on entomology had, on a vague supposition, unsup-
ported by anatomical observation, expressed their belief
that the antenna were the organs in question, but M.
Lespes was the first who had endeavoured to throw light
on the question by direct anatomical investigation. He had
particularly turned his attention to certain Fallout and
transparent points already observed by Erielson and
Duges, and had succeeded, partly by dissection and partly
by the aid of certain chymical dissolvents, in separating
the minute leaves or plates which constitute the extremity
of the antenna of a ccckchafer. These leaves, magnificd*
under the microscope, were represented in the diagrams
which accompanied his paper, and the report concludes with
recommending the Academy to encourage M. Lespes to
publish them. M. Castorani, who had some time ago sent
in a paper on the diseases of the eye and the operations
which they require, wrote to request permission to repeat
some of his experiments before the committee appointed to
examine his work. The letter was referred to the com-
mittee in question. M. Felouze communicated a letter from
Reynoso, of Cuba, stating that the Government of that
island had resolved neon encouraging the trade in a certain
