The Sun.
London, England, 1866-04-04

! but there is an eternal sky over it ; and the blessed
sunshinr, verdure of spring, and rich autumn, and all
that in it too. Piety does not mean that a man should
make a sour face about things, and refuse to enjoy in mode-
ration what his Maker has given. Neither do you find it
to have been so with old Knox. if you look into him you
will find a beautiful Scotch humour in him, as well as the
grimmest and sternest truth when necessary, and a great
deal of laughter. We find really some of the sunniest
glimpses of things come out of, Knox that I have seen in
any man ; for instance, in his "History of the Reforma-
tion," which is a book I hope every one of you.will read—
(applauso)—a glorious book. On the whole, I would bid
you stand up to your work, whatever it may be, end not be
afraid of it-not in sorrows or contradiction to yield, but
pushing on towards the goal ; and don't suppose that people
are hostile to you in the world. You will rarely find any-
body designedly doing you ill. You may feel often as if
the whole world is obstructing you, more or less ; but you
will find that to be because the world is travelling in a
different way from you, and rushing on in its own path.
Each man has only an extremely good will to himself—
which he has a right to have—and is moving on towards
his object. Keep out of literature as a general rule, I
should say also. (Laughter.) If you find many people
who are hard and indifferent to you in a world that you
consider to be inhospitable and cruel—as often, indeed, hap-
pens to a tender-hearted, stirring young creature—you
will also find that there are noble hearts who will look
kindly on you, and their help will be precious to you be-
yond price. You will get good and evil as you go on, and
have the success that has been appointed to you. I will
wind up with a small bit of verse that is from Goethe also,
and has often gone through my mind. To me it has the
tone of a modern psalm in it in some measure. It is sweet
and clear—the clearest of sceptical men had not anything
like so clear a mind as that man had—freer from cant and
misdirected notion of any kind than any man in these ages
has been. This is what the poet says :
" The Future hides in it
Gladness and sorrow,
We press still thorow;
Nought that abides in it
Daunting us - Onward !

" And solemn before us,
Veiled, the dark Portal ;
Goal of all mortal :
Stars silent rest o'er us—
Graves under us silent.

"While earnest thou gazest,
Comes boding of terror,
Comes phantasm and error
Perplexes the bravest
With doubt and misgiving.

" But heard are the voices,
Heard are the Sages,
The works and the Ages :
' Choose well, your choice
Brief and yet endless.

" Here eyes do regard you
In 2,ternity's stillness :
Here is all fulness,
Ye brave, to reward you :
Work, and despair not.' "
One last word. Wir heissen euch hoffen—Wro bid you be
of hope. Adieu for this time. (Mr. Carlyle resumed hie 1
seat amid loud and prolonged applause, after speaking for
an hdur and a half.)
The benediction was then pronounced, and the assem-
blage separated, Mr. Carlyle being followed to his lodging
by an enthusiastic band of students.

COUNTB,Y MARKET

LEEDS—TUESDAY.
The possible rupture between Austria and Prussia has
influenced the trade to-day, and good-conditioned parcels
of both white and new red wheat were in fair demand, at
prices rather beyond those current last week. Not much
old offering, but rather more inquiry. No alteration in
other articles.

MELTON MOWBRAY.—TUESDAY.
There was an average supply of wheat for the time of
year at our corn market to-day. Of barley there was not
much on offer, and the trade was moderate, at hardly late
prices. There was a short supply of oats, at about recent
quotations.
White wheat, 49s to 55s ; red, 42s to 488 per 36 stone.
Barley for malting, 34s to 38s per qr ; feed, 308 to 32s per

MARK-LANE.

Fresh up to our market, to-day, the arrivals of English
wheat wore moderate, but of poor quality. The best
samples moved off steadily, at full prices ; otherwise the
English wheat trade ruled quiet, on former terms.
With foreign wheat the market was fairly supplied. Thb
trade for all descriptions ruled inactive, but without lead-
ing to any quotable change in prices from Monday.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at late rates.
With English barley the market was scantily supplied ;
but there was a moderate supply of foreign qualities on
offer. The trade ruled firm, at full prices.

Malt sold slowly, but at full prices.
Oats wore in fair supply, and the trade ruled firm, at
full quotations.
Beans and peas moved off steadily, at quite late rates.
The flour trade was quiet, at previous quotations.

kJ CHILDREN of the late Captain It. 11. GRONOW
formerly of the Grenadier Guards, and Author ef " Recol-
lections. and Anecdotes," "Celebrities of London and
Pees," &c. Captain Gronow, who lately died in Paris,
has left a widow and four young children, by his second
marriage utterly destitute, without means to defray his
funeral expenses, or even to purchase bread. Captain
Gronow was disinherited by his father, in favour of
his brother, a clergyman, and the small income which
he derived from the interest of a sum charged on the family
estate ceased with his life • while the sums he received
from time to time for his " Recollections" were expended
in providing for the increasing expenses of his young
family. Under these distressing circumstances the friends
of Madame Gronow in Paris came to her aid, and they now
appeal to the liberality of her late husband's friends in
London, and also to the readers of his Reminiscences, for
contributions to enable her to maintain and educate her
children.

LONDOIV, IVEDSESDAY, APRIL 4, 1866

An interesting ceremony took place in Edinburgh
on Monday, when Mr. CARLYLE was
installed as
Rector of the University. Additional attraction was
imparted to the proceedings from the circumstance
that, more than 50 years ago, the learned gentleman
was a student in the class-rooms of the university.
Seldom does a man thus return to the scenes of his
early days, and receive such high honour. In re-
turning thanks Mr. CARLYLE made every interesting
speech, which contained ample scope for reflection
and consideration—it was, indeed, a discourse emi-
nently suited for those entering on the cares, duties,
and pleasures of existence. He took an elevated view
of the destinies of men, and urged strongly upon his
hearers the importance of energy and perseverance,
but he proved himself the best adviser and the
trusty friend of those around him by not disguising
from them the difficulties of their task. He im-
pressed upon them what was the real value of uni-
versity training was that it forms a taste for reading,
and the next thing to do is to be wise and be as-
siduous in reading. Learn to be discriminative
in your reading also," observes Mr. CARLYLE, ad-
vice which at the present day is certainly very neces-
sary and desirable. History is, of course, put fore-
most in :the rank of desirable study ; and
the new Rector said, " You will find, if
you read well, a pair of extremely re-
markable nations whining in the records left

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new descrip-
tion of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly reeemble the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain-
ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful
in mastication.

To Captain Baker—The crew rendered every
assistance they could on Wednesday night till they
were worn out.
Master Walter Molesworth Edwards examined
by Mr. Dowd. I reside at Bedford. I was mid-
shipman on board the ship London on her last
voyage. I joined on the 28th of December, the
day of her departure for the docks. It was my first
voyage. We left Plymouth a little after midnight
of the sth January. The weather was quite fine
and calm, and so continued until four iu the after-
noon of Saturday, the Gth, when it began to blow
hard. From that time till Wednesday we were
continually on deck, with the exception of a short
time on Tuesday and Wednesday, when we went
below. I heard of the jibboom being carried away,
and subsequently it was brought on board. At 11
o'clock on Wednesday I saw it on deck, just aft the
funnel on the port side ; the thickest end was aft.
It was first washed against the bulwarks, and then.
against the hatch and skylight.
Mr. Traill—lt was fastened, then ?
Witness--Yes.
To Mr.O'Dowd—l saw it again in the afternoon,
between three and five o'clock, and it was still
knocking about. I saw no attempt made to secure
it. I never saw it secured. It was beating against
the framework of the hatchway. It was beating
sideways.
Mr. Traill—lt has been stated that the jibboom
was secured at four in the afternoon ; when did you
see it secured ?
Witness—l never saw it secured at all.
To Mr. O'Dowd—lt might have been lashed at
four or five. I was below when the engine-room
hatch skylight was carried away, and I did not
come upon deck till Thursday morning at ten
o'clock. I saw the skylight on the port side. It was
quite whole. It was not broken at all, not even the
panes of glass nor the frame work.
To Mr. Trail—l am certain about this. I cannot
be mistaken. The captain must have seen it. I did
not speak of it to the captain, as he saw it as well as
I did ; and he might have thought that I was in-
terfering in what did not concern me.
To Mr. O'Dowd—l saw no attempt made to
replace the skylight. I saw the pinnace lowered
and capsi zed. The passengers all came to see her
lowered. When she was capsized they all went
down again into the saloon. I think I heard one
lady say it was of no use to go into the boat. Mrs.
Owen was going into the boat, and the captain dis-
suaded her. The skylight was washing about a
little. It had been carried a little farther forward
than where it had been washed off.
To Mr. Traill—An attempt might have been made
to replace the skylight during the night.
Mr. Traill—lt is stated that an attempt was made
during the night, and that the skylight was smashed
by the sea.
Witness—l saw it at ten o'clock in the morning.
And you mentioned what you saw to no one ?
No. I once spoke of something else to Mr. Angel,
one of the officers, and he told me to mind my own
business.

Quarterly Return of the Marriages, Births,
and Deaths in England.

The registers of the United Kingdom show that
113,972 persons married in the quarter that ended
in September last ; that the births of 239,439 chil-
dren, and the deaths of 159,524 persons of both
sexes, were registered in the three months ending
on December 31. The recorded natural increase
of population in 92 days was 79,975, or 869 daily.
Exclusive of 8,101 foreigners, 36,256 emigrants
sailed from these islands in the same period. So
about :391 emigrants left daily ; and allowing for
defects in registration, which has only recently been
established in Ireland, the increase at home has been
about 520 daily.
The death-rate of the United Kingdom differs
little from the average of England and Wales to be
here discussed. The several facts concerning the
other divisions of the kingdom arc fully set forth in
the reports of the Registrar-General of Scotland
and the Registrar-General of Ireland.
The estimated population in 1865 of England, Scot-
land, and Ireland, is 29,772,294. The corrected
death-rate of the quarter is 2.220 per cent.

ENGLAND.
This return comprises the births and deaths re-
gistered by 2,200 registrars in all the districts of
England during the autumn quarter that ended on
December 31, 1865 ; and the marriages in 12,811
churches and chapels, about 5,302 registered places
of worship unconnected with the Established
Church, an.l 641 superintendent registrars' offices,
in the quarter that ended on September 30, 1865.
A few fatal cases of epidemic cholera occurred
during the quarter in the districts of Southampton
and of Portsea Island on the southern coast of
England; there was also a slight outbreak in Ep-
ping ; but the number of deaths by cholera has
been inconsiderable, and the epidemic has left no
traces.

The mortality was above the average, but it was
below that in the corresponding quarter of the pre-
vious year. The birth-rate was above the average.
The marriage returns are for the quarter• ending
in September, 1865. -The rate was much above the
average. Weddings were more rife than they were
in the previous summer, or in the summer of any
year since registration began. This implies that
the great body of the people were prosperous.
MARRIAGES.
91,726 persons married in the quarter that ended
on September 30, 1865. The rate of marriage was
1.732, or 0.127 above the average.
The increase of marriages was general, but it was
striking in Yorkshire, where the woollen trade
flourished in an extraordinary degree ; Lancashire
was also recovering from its depression. In Lon-
don the marriages exceeded by nearly 1,000 the
marriages in the summer quarter of 1863.
BIRTHS.

179,020 births were registered in the last quarter
of the year 1865. The birth-rate was 3.370, or
•073 above the average. The daily births were
1,046, or 81 per hour. The number has varied
little in the last three summers in any of the di-
visions.

BUSINESS PROSPECTS OF THE SOUTHERN STATES.
—The Shreveport (Louisiana) News entertained the
opinion awhile back that business, the coming year,
would be, comparatively speaking, dull ; but from
indications that journal is happy to say it feels confi-
dent that there will be considerable activity mani-
fested in commercial transactions, and if there is
v r
alittle
any falling off it will be but trifling_ For this
will

cotton The small
farmer
this season exert himself on account of the high
price of the staple, and produce, if not double what
has been his customary crop, at the lowest estimate
one-half more. The same will be the case with
the larger class cf planters. All very true. And
if the whole of the Southern people, without refe-
rence to their former • circumstances, will " exert"
themselves energetically, p •
ersevermgly, and indus-
triously, the future will be made as secure as it is
possible for the skill and labour of men to accom-
plish. Further along, in the article from which
we have quoted, the Shreveport News says :—" WO
have made it a business to converse with well-in-
formed gentlemen on the subject, and, from all that
can be gathered, we feel justified in so expre.ssing
our opinion in regard to business prospectsfor next
that
year. One or two large planters informed us
not one of their negroes had left them, or exhibited
any signs of dissatisfaction, though perfectly well
posted on the change of their social
reerylations, and
that con-
d
that they judged the negroes were p
tented to remain on the plantations of their former
masters. . . Further, persons have been and are still
renting farms with a view of growing the great
staple, cotton, which, though o- it has not proved itself
King,' may yet Profvc such. The demand for
farming implements o itself denotes a determina-
tion to make up for what is lost. The Southern
people are stirring a themselves ; they have had
instilled into them, as it wore, a new life, and the
planter at leisure is now seen bustling about like
one commencing anew,"

ENGLAND.

This return comprises the births and deaths re-
gistered by 2,200 registrars in all the districts of
England during the autumn quarter that ended on
December 31, 1865 ; and the marriages in 12,811
churches and chapels, about 5,302 registered places
of worship unconnected with the Established
Church, ani 641 superintendent registrars' offices,
in the quarter that ended on September 30, 1865.
A few fatal cases of epidemic cholera occurred
during the quarter in the districts of Southampton
and of Portsea Island on the southern coast of
England; there was also a slight outbreak in Ep-
ping ; but the number of deaths by cholera has
been inconsiderable, and the epidemic has left no
traces.

The mortality was above the average, but it was
below that in the corresponding quarter of the pre-
vious year. The birth-rate was above the average.
The marriage returns are for the quarter ending
in September, 1865. The rate was much above the
average. Weddings were more rife than they were
in the previous summer, or in the summer of any
year since registration began. This implies that
the great body of the people were prosperous.
