tion ; it takespower from those who pay, and confers
it upon those who mainly have enjoyed the fruits of
every important financial remission during the last 20
years. This bearing of the question, of course, bad
to be kept in view, because the efforts of Ministe-
rialists from the beginning of the debate have been
pertinaciously directed towards the confusion of
issues, and the blindinc, of the house to the real and
single point upon which it has now to deliver judge!
ment. Mr. Bright exclaims " Settle the question.
Mr. Walpole answers " Settle it by recognising
Lord Stanley's unrefuted argument, and adopting
Lord Grosvenor's amendment." The member for
Birmingham, who has more voices than a ventrilo-
quist, preached on Monday night something like
finality, with, he reckons, four millions of unen-
franchised working men still waiting for their rights
even should this bill become law. We would rather
in such a case be more just to him than he is to him-
self, and credit him with more sincerity when be
talking in his natural atmosphere about " leverage'
than when in a cold House of Commons he is prac-
tising the accents and attitudes of moderation. As-
suming, however, that he imagines himself sincere,
what does he understand by a political settlement?
As Mr. Walpole interprets him, a Franchise Bill,
partially enacted, hotly pursued by another of an
entirely different nature and scope, with an immi-
nent prospect of the two coming into collision, and
both thrown off the rails. Even were the second
reading to pass, which every hour renders more
doubtful—in fact, Ministers no longer count upon
a majority—the Franchise Bill must be shunted
into a siding, until the Distribution of Seats Bill
comes up with it, so that both may go on together
until the final collapse and dissolution takes place
in committee. But this is not the spirit or the
method upon which the House of Commons has
been accustomed to legislate upon questions of im-
portance to the nation now, bearing upon the
destinies of many ages to come, and it is not with
the paltry object either of forcing through a raw'
Franchise Bill, in order to keep a dilapidated gi
nistry erect, that Parliament will hammer this piece
of mechanical patchwork upon the great organism
of the British Constitution, which is nothing if not
maintained in spirit and substance as a whole, the
repertory of the nation's life, and the source of s'
its freedom.

PEMBROKE AND TENBY.

A Wharncliffe meeting was held at the offices,
Pembroke, on Thursday—Mr. W. Owen in the
chair.

The secretary (Mr. Stokes) read the heads of a
bill authorising the company to change its name, to
construct short branches at Pembroke and Ilobb's-
point, and to extend their Whitland extension to
Carmarthen, a distance of 14 miles. The capital to
be raised was £200,000, and the various works were
to be completed within five years. The directors
announced that they had failed in their negotiations
with the Great Western respecting a narrow-gauge
line to Carmarthen.

A resolution approving the bill was unanimously
agreed to.

ATLANTIC GREAT WESTERN.

The traffic receipts on this company's line, 507
miles in length, amount for the month of March to
$131,544 for passengers, mails, &c., and to $256,936
for freight—total, $388,480, against $399,870 in
March, 1865, and $151,575 in March, 1864. The
total receipts for the first three months of the pre-
sent year amounted to $1,302,335, against
$1,016,539 for the same period of 1865, showing
an increase of $285,796.

BRIDGEWATER.

This committee reassembled this morning, and some
additional evidence was adduced on behalf of the peti-
tioners, corroborating the witnesses previously examined.
The King's County and Northallerton committees also
met to-day and proceeded with the evidence.

THE BUTCIIER TRADE PROTECTION SOCIETY.--A
crowded meeting of the master butchers of the metropolis,
convened by the Trade Protection Society, was held last
night in the hall of the Butchers' Company, Eastcheap
City, the master of the company (Mr. Richard Hill) pre-
siding, to consider the recent orders of the Privy Council
relative to the movement of cattle. The proceedings
lasted upwards of two hours, and all the speakers con-
curred in condemning the proposal to prohibit the slaughter
of cattle in London except at abattoirs as being calculated
not only to injure the trade but to be seriously detrimental
to the interest of the public. Complaint was made against
Mr. Hunt, M.P., for having put forth misrepresentations
on the subject, and the chairman, speaking from 40 years'
experience, pronounced it to be his opinion that it required a
live and a dead market to supply London with meat, while
Mr. Morris, who proposed one of the resolutions, estimated
that the abolition of private slaughter-houses would have
the affect of increasing the cost of meat to the consumer
by at the very least one halfpenny a pound. Nor was this
all : the poor would be very great sufferers, because what
was called the offal would not reach them if the cattle were
permanently slaughtered at a central spot or in the coun-
try, and by the existing prohibitions tripe-dressers had
been almost completely deprived of their supplies. Great
stress was laid upon the bad state in which dead meat was
brought to market, particularly in the summer months,
and it was urged that the Paris system was wholly
inapplicable to London. A string of resolutions, based
upon those views, was proposed and seconded by
Messrs. Varly, Fry, Cobb, Woodley, Hillsley, Morris,
Gibbetts, Fagay, and Pickworth, and unanimously adopted
by the meeting. It was stated that there aro upwards of
1,700 master butchers in the metropolis ; and after the com-
mittee of their Protection Society had been empowered to
take such steps from time to time as they might deem ne-
cessary for defending the privileges of the trade, the pro-
ceedings were brought to a close with a vote of thanks to
the chairman and the wardens of the company for the use
of the hell.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day).

SECONDARIES' COURT.
(Before Mr. Secondary Potter and a Special Jury.)
THE STAPLEHURST RAILWAY ACCIDENT.-HEAVY CLAIM FOR
COMPENSATION.-BARNES V. THE SOUTH EASTERN RAIL-
WAY COMPANY.

This was a writ of inquiry sent down from the Court
of Queen's Bench, to assess damages, laid at £4,000, sus-
tained by the plaintiff in the Staplehurst railway accident,
defendants having suffered judgment to go by default.
Mr. Holt (instructed by:Mr. Pierce, of Giltspur-street)
appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., repre-
senting the company.
Mr. Holt, having opened the case, called the plaintiff,
Miss Barnes, who said that her father was a horse-hair
manufacturer, of Farringdon-street, and she was 28 years
old. Last year she went to Paris, and upon her return
she rode in one of the company's carriages as far as Staple-
burst, when an accident occurred to the train. The carriage
in which the plaintiff was riding was dashed to pieces.
Mr. Huddlestono said that the accident was admitted,
and it was not necessary to go into all these particulars.
The learned Secondary said it might be necessary.

Miss Barnes said, in continuation, that when she was
thrown down a lady named White was thrown upon her.
Miss White struggled for some time, and finally died while
lying on plaintiff.

Mr. Huddlestone urged that it was extremely unneces-
sary to go into all these particulars. No doubt the death
of Miss White was a painful circumstance, but it was
nothing on this inquiry. _ .

Miss Barnes became so much excited upon describing
the death of Miss White that some alarm was caused to
her friends. She was seated while giving her evidence,
which was being continued when this report left.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

11ARLBORO UGH-STREET.

BASE INGRATITI7DE.—DanieI Dawson, a young man,
was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with embezzling
saveral sums of money received on account of his employer,
Mr. Thomas Ravenshaw, ehoesemonger, No. 2, Berwick-
street, St. James's.

From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was
.ormerly in Mr. Ravenshaw's employ, and discharged for
embezzling some money. The prisoner then got into very
distressed circumstances, and Mr. Ravenshaw pitying his
condition, again took him into his employment, and treated
him with great kindness. On the 17th March last the pri-
soner received some money for goods delivered at Mrs.
Justy's, No. 14, Poland-street, and absconded, and nothing
more was seen of him till yesterday. Sergeant Cole of
the C Division succeeded in taking him into custody at a
cheesemonger's shop in King-street, Long Acre.
The case having been proved against the prisoner, Ser-
geant Cole asked for a remand, Mr. Ravenshaw not being
in attendance, and there being several other cases against
the prisoner.

WINDSOR.

The member of this committee met this morning at the
usual hour.

Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, who stated yesterday at the
close of the day that he had concluded his evidence on the
part of the sitting members, now proposed to call Mr.
Darvel, junior, to disprove the statements made by some of
the witnesses as to Mr. Eyckin, who took such an active
part in promoting the return of Mr. Labouchere and Sir J.
Hoare.

The committee considered that such evidence was un-
necessary.

Mr. Sergeant Ballautine, in reply to a question by the
chairman, said that there were four hotels, 32 public-
houses, and 35 beer-houses in Windsor. The learned
sergeant then proceeded to comment on the evidence, and
contended that the case for the petition had utterly failed,
notwithstanding the assertion of the learned counsel on
the opposite side in his opening statement that he would
establish 140 cases of bribery.
Mr. Cooke, Q.C., replied on the whole case.
The committee had not given their decision when we
went to press.

WAKEFIELD.
The select committee appointed to try the merits of the
petition against the return of Mr. W. IL Leathern re-as-
sembled this morning at 11 o'clock (Mr. Gregory, chair-
man).

Some additional evidence was adduced to prove that
Mr. Hall and other agents of the sitting member had
bribed several of the voters, and that the process of sugar-
ing was carried on to an extent that quite maintained the
notoriety which the borough had acquired in 1859, when
corrupt practices were established to an extent that led to
the suspension of the writ for the return of a member.

THAMES MARINE OFFICERS' TRAINING SHIP.—
His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has consented to
distribute the prizes to the successful cadets on board the
Worcester training ship, lying off Erith, on the 28th inst.,
after which his Royal Highness will proceed to Wanstead
to lay the foundation stone of a new hall for the Merchant
Seamen's Orphan Asylum.
FIDDLE-MAKING.—Few who see that simple-
looking toy, out of which such admirable music is
drawn, have an idea of its delicate complexity of struc-
ture. A well-made violin contains more than 60 different
pieces of woods, the woods being three : maple, red deal,
and ebony. The wood must bo thoroughly seasoned, espe-
cially the red deal ; and the only artist of modern times
who is said to counterfeit tho works of the great Italian
makers, M. Vuillaume, of Paris, has done so mainly by a
most careful selection of materials. Many a roof and panel
from Swiss chalets have found their way into his work-
shop. Be the grain over so good, the material must have
undergone the slow action of time. Some have thought
to supersede this by the use of acids and by artificial heat.
But these expedients, I am assured, have only a short-lived
success. The violins thus forced deteriorate steadily
whereas the good instruments become more mellow and
precious in sound year by year. It seems agreed that the
amount of sonority in the violin partly depends on the
flatness or otherwise of its form. How it should be that
no change of any importance has been made since the
days of Di Salo and Amati, presents, I repeat, one of the
most singular anomalies in that history of anomalies, the
lovely art of Music. But the violin is nothing without
its bow ; and the perfected bow is an invention dating
nearly two centuries later than the perfection of the instru-
ment which it bids to discourse." Here is a second
anomaly. A third is, that the instrument was brought to
perfection before any music was produced worth perform-
ing on it (as we understand matters). Corelli and Scarlatti
were not writing when Amati, and Stradivarius, and
Guarnerius wero producing their masterpieces, which
sufficed to the Paganinis of modern times for the execu-
tion of their stupendous feats of volubility and brilliancy.
In truth, till the beginning of the last century, the music
written for the violin was mere child's play—the works of
one wonderful man excepted—John Sebastian Bach.—

ItONEI-MARKET

AND!
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Continued inactivity prevails in discount circles,
the commercial bills on offer being comparatively
few. The brokers, however, refuse to negotiate
business, even on first-class paper, under per cent.
of the Bank rate, except in special cases, and this
reserve leads to the opinion that the position of the
national establishment will not warrant a down-
ward movement at the weekly court to-morrow.
The gold taken out of the Bank yesterday
amounted to £4,000.

The Money Market remains in a very inactive
state, the inquiry for discounts being exceedingly
limited. The lowest quotations of the brokers, how-
ever, are still 5i and 6 per cent.
At a meeting held to-day of the Credit Foncier
and Mobilier of England the report of the directors,
Presented for adoption, stated that the net balance
for the current half year, including the balance
brought forward, amounted to £281,829, from which
a dividend at the rate of 20 per cent. was recom-
mended and a bonus of 10 per cent. ; the amount
required for these payments make together £137,808.
The directors also recommend that £50,000 be placed
to the dividend reserve fund, which will then stand
at £150,000, and to carry forward the balance of
£86,606 to the next half-year's account. The
general reserve fund has been increased from
£200,000 to £500,000 by the amount received from
premiums on the new issue of shares.

At a meeting of shareholders held to-day of the
Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, the report of
the directors stated that the disbursements in the
" working account" for the year 1865 is very nearly
the same as that for the previous year. The cause
of the surplus in 1865 being £46,100 less than 1864
will be found.on the credit side of the account, where
a deficiency occurs in Government Contract money
and in the receipts for freight, met, however, to
some extent, by an increase in passage money. A
dividend of £4 10s. per share is recommended, and a
bonus of £2 10s. per share from the insurance fund.
London, England, 1866-04-25

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day).

SECONDARIES' COURT.

(Before Mr. Secondary Potter and a Special Jury.)

THE STAPLEHURST RAILWAY ACCIDENT.-lIEAYY CLAIM FOR
COMPENSATION.-BARNES V. THE SOUTH EASTERN RAIL-

WAY COMPANY.

This was a writ of inquiry sent down from the Court
of Queen's Bench, to assess damages, laid at £4,000, sus-
tained by the plaintiff in the Staplehurst railway accident,
defendants having suffered judgment to go by default.
Mr. Holt (instructed by;Mr. Pierce, of Giltspur-street)
appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Iluddleston, Q.C., repre-
senting the company.

Mr. Holt, having opened the case, called the
Miss Barnes, who said that her father was a horse-hair
manufacturer, of Farringdon-street, and she was 28 years
old. Last year she went to Paris, and upon her return
she rode in one of the company's carriages as far as Staple-
hurst, when an accident occurred to the train. The carriage
in which the plaintiff was riding was dashed to pieces.
Mr. Ifuddlestone said that the accident was admitted,
and it was not necessary to go into all these particulars.
The learned Secondary said it might be necessary.

Miss Barnes said, in continuation, that when sho was
thrown down a lady named White was thrown upon her.
Miss White struggled for some time, and finally died while
lying on plaintiff.
Mr. Huddlestone urged that it was extremely unneces-
sary to go into all these particulars. No doubt the death
of Miss White was a painful circumstance, but it was
nothing on this inquiry.
Miss Barnes became so much excited upon describing
the death of Miss White that some alarm was caused to
her friends. She was seated while giving her evidence,
which was being continued when this report left.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

-0-

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

BASE INGRATITUDE.—DanieI Dzwson, a young man,
was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with embezzling
several sums of money received on account of his employer,
Mr. Thomas Ravenshaw, cheesemonger, No. 2, Berwick-
street, St. James's.
From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was
formerly in Mr. Ravenshaw's employ, and discharged for
embezzling some money. The prisoner then got into very
distressed circumstances, and Mr. Ravenshaw pitying his
condition, again took him into his employment, and treated
him with great kindness. On the 17th March last the pri-
soner received some money for goods delivered at Mrs.
Justy's, No. 14, Poland-street, and absconded, and nothing
more was seen of him till yesterday. Sergeant Cole of
the C Division succeeded in taking him into custody at a
cheesemonger's shop iu King-street, Long Acre.
The case having been proved against the prisoner, Ser-
geant Cole asked for a remand, Mr. Ravenshaw not being
in attendance, and there being several other cases against
the prisoner.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 4 per mine pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.15 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of Z 3
I is. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 2- iGths per cent. dearer iu Paris than in London.

By advic.:s from Hamburg the price of gold is 427 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.51 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, at
about 2-lothe per Cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London.
