teaching or praiseworthy the arrangements of parish
schools, we all know that a stigma is attached to
pauper children. When they leave school they
must go to the workhouse and get branded as pau-
pers. If boys they start in life under great disad-
vantages, if girls the odds are ten to one against
them. It is well worth while to consider whether
some effort cannot be made on behalf of these chil-
dren to keep them up in the social scale, for the de-
gradation of every citizen is a loss to the State.
The LORD MAYOR is wisely determined to avoid a
balance, and to lay out the money entrusted to the
committee for the purpose for which it was sent, and
we do not think he can do better than in devoting
some portion of his funds for the assistance of these
fatherless children.

STANFORD SILITIJ, Beadily.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE,
FO
HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
. 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, X 2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO ,more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will

assert that not more than one in six of the Austrian

shells burst properly, or at all.

That is a grave

statement, but I am sure it will be verified on in-

quiry, and, if so, the deduction is that for practical
purposes rifled shell on these two systems are no-

,ping better than plunging solid shot—shot with-

out ricochet, and therefore almost harmless against

lines of infantry or cavalry except where they
actually strike. This does not afford a position to be
occupied by the reactionary party in our artillery.
All it means is that the shells of rifled artillery ought

to burst properly, and that the fuses which are the
most certain are the best, and that bad fuses neu-
tralise the advantages of rifling guns most effectually.
The rifled musket renders the use of smooth-bore

cannon very dangerous and doubtful, and if men
could only be trained to such'a degree of stoicism
that they would fire as well under a pounding can-

nonade of smoothbores as they would at a target,
no battery of smoothbores coull be unlimbered and
brought into action at an effective distance in front
of infantry armed with a good rifle. But there are
cases in which ricochet fire is invaluable, and if any

one could invent a system by which the range and
accuracy of rifled projectiles could be combined
with the good points of the old system, he would
be, if not a benefactor to the human race, a great
improver of modern practice in the field. Koniggratz
again illustrates the value of cavalry, an arm of the
service which many seem inclined to bury down
among the dead men or to deprive it of its full force.
But for the Austrian cavalry there is no good
reason to be assigned for the escape of their army,
large as it was, because a brisk pursuit and a
short one must have brought them to bay on the
banks of the river without any chance of retreat,
and the guns of the fortress could not have covered
them. It is a mistake to suppose that any part
of Benedek's army passed through or by Konig-

compelled to contribute to the expenses of Prussia,
while they have a heavy burden of their own to
bear as well. Such a piece of tyranny is,
however, only in conformity with all that we
have witnessed of Prussian policy for many years
past. The denial in the Moniteur of any commu-
nication having been made by the EMPEROR to the
King of the BELGIANS is regarded as a good sign,
since it shows that there has been no idea enter-
tained of the frontiers of France being rectified
at the cost of Belgium. This is truly considered
to be a very satisfactory announcement, for
it would profit the French but little to acquire
the said territory, while the interference
would du them great harm in their reputa-
tion for political honesty and fair play.
Belgium has deserved well of the nations of Europe,
and it would give great offence iu many directions
were its integrity to be assailed for no imaginable
cause but the law of conquest. One of the most
noticeable signs of peace is to be seen in the circum-
stance of the Italian prisoners having been set at
liberty, mho fell into the power of the Austrians at
the battle of Custozza. These indications of the
certain cessation of war will do much to restore
things to a more satisfactory state than they have
been in for some tune past ; but it is, indeed, vexa-
tious to think of the many disastrous effects the
war has produced with no counterbalancing gain,
for the only Power that has profited will abuse
every advantage she has acquired.

SHAMEFUL ROBBERY.—Mary Graydon, aged 30, and
Elizabeth Stewart, 26, of 40, Devonshire-street, St.
George's-in-the-East, wore brought before Mr. Partridge
charged with being concerned with another woman not in
custody in stealing a purso containing £l7 lOs.p from the
person of Robert Gill, mate of a ship, and residing at No.
12, Norfolk-place, Stoke Newington.
On Friday, the 3rd of the present month, the prosecutor
met the prisoners in the Minories, and they induced him
to accompany them to an infamous place, No. 17,
Devonshire-street, where they managed to hocuss him
with some narcotic drug, infused in his liquor, and
robbed him of his purse, containing £l7 10s. in
gold and some silver. When he recovered his senses
and missed his purse from his coatpocket, Stewart
was alone iu the room, and ho said, referring to Graydon,
