SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

THE "LONDON REVIEW" ON POLICEMEN IN PLAIN
CLOTHES.—In the early part of February last a,
deadly enconnter took place near the Crystal Palace,
one Satuiday morning, between two persons, each
of whom appeared to the other to be a malefactor
of some kind. As it turned out, one was a police-
man, whose sole object was the protection of the
public ; and the other was a pianist, who had been
professionally attending an evening party, and
whose only aim was tp go home and get to his bed
as speedily as possible. _ If each had known who the

_
other was, nothing could have been more fortunate
than their meeting at such an hour, and in such a
place. For the place was lonely, and the hour
about two in the morning, when a timid wayfarer
would be glad to know that there was a policeman
at hand in case of accident; and when a policeman,
with a due sense of his position as a public guardian,
would feel pleased that there was some one for him
to protect. But two circumstances tended to dis-

arrange this fitness of things—the pianist carried a
bag, and the policeman was in plain clothes, Why
a man carrying a bag at night should be a more
suspicious object than a man carrying a bag by cay,
we have never been able to understand. But it ap-
pears that, to the eye of a constable, this is one of
the facts which demand further inquiry ; and so Mr.
Maddocks, the policeman in question, seeing that.
Mr. Ferguson, the pianist, carried a bag, at once
followed him. This startled Mr. Ferguson. If
there is one man who may be supposed to be more
inoffensive and less dangerous than any other, we
should say it is a pianist coming home after profes-
sional attendance at an evening party. To say
nothing of the tendency of his art to civilise, and
give gentleness to his disposition, there is the
somewhat servile position he has been filling.
He has had to pipe while others danced, to change
his tune at command, to be servant to a merri-

ment which he has not shared, to be an inferior
to persons to whom on his own ground, and

perhaps, their wealth excepted, upon— theirs, he
is superior. Very possibly he has had to endure
the discomfort of being laughed at, or of hearing

is playing criticised as 100 slow or too fast, or of

being told that his selection shows want of taste.
All this he has had to bear meekly, with a grin, if

not with a smile; feeling that for the nonce it would
be better to be the waiter who has been hired for

the occasion, and who, ministering to the creature
comforts of the assembly, has had guests and com-
forts much at his command, with at least the smiles
of the kitchen to console him for his labours upstairs.
Therefore. if it were necessary for us in the loneliest
time of the night, and in the dreariest season of the
year to have to come face to face with a stranger
" carrying a bag," and we were allowed to choose
what upon inquiry the stranger should turn out to
be, we should say, " Let him be a pianist returning
home after six or seven hours' labour at the piano,
accompanied with that exquisite lanailiation which
the British matron and British misses and their
swains know so well how to inflict." But none of
these merciful and considerate thoughts occurred to
Maddocks. He saw before him only a man with a
man with a bag. The man, alone, might have
passed muster ' • but the suspicious appendage re-
quired explanation. So he followed him ; and as
he followed him the man with the bag quickened
his pace, and presently began to run. The accute
Paddocks saw, without any doubt whatever, that he
was on the track of a subtle and obdurate burglar.
And now, girding up -his loins, he set off at full

speed to .run the scoundrel down, and presently
overtook him. After a short parley there came a
struggle, in the midst of which Ferguson whipped out

a knife and stuck it into Maddocks: Then he released
himself, and, rushing back, took out his watch, laid it

on the pavement, and cried out, " Take that if you
want it, but do not hurt me." The truth of the
matter is that the trrified pianist thought he was in

the hands of a Philistine ;lien, in fad, he was fly-
ing from, and then stabbing, a public guardian.
But nothing could be more natural than the reason-
ing by which he arrived at his conclusion. A
policeman at two in the morning 'is only to be dis-
tinguished from a civilian or a thief by his uniform.
The constable whom Mr. Ferguson stabbed was so
unlike a policeman that he -looked uncommonly
like a foot-pad. Ile was dressed in a grey top-coat
and a low-crowned deer-stalker's hat. Such a cos-

tunic, at such an hour and in so lonely a place,
might easily excite alarm in the breast of a man of
stronger nerves than a pianist. And then all the
attendant circumstances favoured Mr. Ferguson's
idea that the policeman in plain clothes was a foot-
pad. For as Mr. Ferguson quickened his pace, the
man in the grey topcoat quickened his also, and
began to run as soon as Ferguson, so that there was
no hope for him but to give the enemy leg-bail. In
the result both parties suffered. The policeman was
stabbed, and Mr. Ferguson was prosecuted for
feloniously wounding him. Fortunately,' Maddocks
recovered, and on Monday last the Grand Jury
ignored the bill against Ferguson ; but " they at
the same time expressed their opinion that in all
cases wherepolicemen in plain clotheswere employed
some unmistakeable means should be adopted,

either by staff or a warrant card, to show who they
are, with a view to prevent the recurrence of a
similar proceeding to the present." We quite agree
with the protest here conveyed against the practice
of sending out police in plain clothes. But we can-
not agree with the Grand Jury in thinking that the
staff or a warrant card, or anything short of the
uniform, will effectually guard against the recur-
rence of a similar misadventure.
THE "SATURDAY REVIEW" ON THE REFORM BE-
BATE.—The house has resumed the discussion of the
Reform Bill, without any change having been made
in the position of parties or in the attitude of the
Government• In different forms the old arguments
have been stated and restated, and the same appeals
have been made to the passions, the fears, and the
hopes of opponents and supporters. The question
has been once more asked, Shall we pass a Reform
Bill ? and the answer has once more been given,
that, although to pass a decently good Reform Bill
would be an excellent thing, to pass a thoroughly
bad one—a mere fragmentary, one-sided, incom-
plete bill—would be a very unwise thing. The
great meeting of the Liberal party produced nothing
but an appeal to that party to remember Lord
Russell's services, to vote as he wished, and to be-
lieve that he would take care that no harm should
happen from the bill being read a second time.
The Government, by using every means of pres-
sure, by satisfying one lukewarm supporter with
one sort of promise and another lukewarm sup-
porter with another sort of promise, has done its
very utmost to secure a majority on the second
reading. After that is to come the deluge. No
Minister even suggests how the Franchise Bill is to
be carried through both houses when it is taken in
conjunction with several other bills on which the
Government is plc aged to stand or fall as much as
on the Franchise Bill. The Government is always
standing or falling now. It is always crossing its
Rubicons, breaking its bridges, and burning its
boats. It is to go out if the Franchise Bill is not
carried, and so it is if the Redistribution Bill is not
approved ; and every argument used by the more
independent of its supporters is met by the
unvarying threat that if it does not receive a
blind unwavering support, through thick and thin, right
and wrong, it will go out of office. Some advantage
will probably be derived from this, and the
Government will perhaps get a majority—a ma-
jority largely composed of reluctant and unwilling
supporters--on the second reading. The Rubicon
and the bridges and the boats will then be done
with, and the Government may think. it will
stand with .credit ; !but the real discussion w!ll
only then be begun, and the Opposition, as a mere
party manoeuvre, might perhaps have reserved their
strength with advantage until the Redistribution
Bill had been produced, and the whole scheme of
the Government revealed. The debate on the
whole scheme must be equally long, discursive, and
elaborate whenever it is produced ; and the only
question now is, whether the Government shall re-
ceive such a condonation for bringing in a mere
fragment of Reform as will enable it to retain
office. The Opposition, therefore, might have
waited until the real subject of discussion arose.
But the most direct and effective course, perhaps,
is that which has been taken, and if the Govern-
ment claims the approval or pardon of the House
for having attempted to treat Reform bit by bit,
the Opposition is entitled to point out and insist
upon the magnitude of the mistake that has been
made ; and those Liberals who, like Lord Gros-
venor, strongly disapprove of the policy adopted by
their leaders, and dare to call their souls their own,
give an example of honesty and independence by
opposing the s..xond reading, which they could not
have given if they had waited for the produc-
tion of the complete scheme. We may take
it for granted that there are no argu-
ments against Lord Grosvenor's Resolution ex-
cept those which are derived from such vague and
remote considerations as the duty of supporting
Lord Russell, the necessity of redeeming Ministerial
pledges, and the expediency of winning the approval
of the working classes. Mr. Gladstone made a long,
a fierce, and a declamatory speech, but he did not
adduce a single argument against the Resolution.
Lord Stanley, on the other baud, made point after
point in support of the Resolution, and there
is no reply possible to his arguments except that,
however strongly reason may be in favour of the
resolution, general expediency is against its being
adopted at the present crisis. That a bill for the
redistribution of seats is much more wanted than
one for the extension of the franchise, and
that. It is impossible to calculate the effects of
reducing the franchise unless the effects of
redistributing the seats are taken into account, is
as plain as daylight. There is no use in discussing

how many new voters the Franchise Bill would add
to the electoral roll, or how many of the whole
number of voters would belong to the working
classes, or how many boroughs the working classes,
if united, could control, unless it is known in what
localities the voting is to go on. Let us suppose
that, if the present constituencies were preserved,
there would under the Franchise Bill be an increase
to the whole number of voters of 400,000; the Re-
distribution Bill may, for all that any ,one knows,
increase this enormously. If 20 large northern
towns were substituted for 20 small western towns,
the total number of electors in the English boroughs
might easily be raised in a most marked manner.
The inure extreme advocates of reform think that
the Government measure is far too moderate, and
that the working classes, even if the franchise were
reduced to £7, would form much too feeble an ele-
ment in the constituencies. Who can tell at present
whether this is so or not ? If the Redistribution
Bill takes away seats from boroughs where the
working men are few, and transfers them to the
i
boroughs where working men predominate, the bill
may be made to go very much further than it is
suppoSed to go by its friends or its foes. Then'
again, calculations are made to show that such or
such a number of boroughs will be completely under
the control of the working classes. These calculations
are ingenious enough as far as they go, but they only
go a very short way. No one who makes the cal-
culation has the necessary data. A few strokes of
the pen in the framing of a Redistribution Bill
would double at once the number of these boroughs.
The fallacy of the whole argument of the Govern-
ment as to the moderate nature of their measure
lies in this, that they draw their estimates from the
present constituencies, and reserve to themselves
the power of changing the constituencies, and se
furnishing an entirely new set of data. If the Go-
vernment openly said that it made no matter hour
many men voted, and that all Britons and Chris-
tians might as well be voters as not, then it would
not alter the calculation of consequences very
how the seats were distributed. But this is not at
all the line which the Government adopts. It offnl
us a moderate bill, a bill based on figures, a bill
guarding against a sudden transfer of politica,
power, and then it reserves to itself the privilege °'
bringing in another measure of which no one knows
the provisions, which may make the present bill an
extreme one, entirely alter the figures, and transfer
in a few months the great political preponderance to.
a class that has now but a small portion of politica/
power. It is only, therefore, in a spirit of courtesy
_
to the Government, and from a desire to seem
to their constituents to be doing and saying
ll
,',
something, that members can pretend at present to
analyse the effects of the bill now under discussion'
Those who, like Mr. Lowe, object to all reduction
of the suffrage can-discuss the bill thoroughly, for
their case is clear before them, but the vast niar,;
rity of the house wishes to have a reform bill, an, 7,
only asks to know the objects and the limits of te!
measure proposed. This the Government decline!
to let them know ; they shall know soon, but Olut
first thing is to pass a complimentary vote, as a 501 d
of testimonial to the Government. The membelPe
for small boroughs will then be told how they aria
to be affected by the complete measure, and na
naturally begin their resistance if they l'rd
their interests endangered. It was, as Lord
Stanley observed, very artless art to suPirto
that these members would be entrapped to
, alt
carrying a Franchise Bill, and then, when tliit
had made themselves powerless, would meekly ill
their condemnation. It was making this art s,ed
more artless when Mr. Bright kindly explainded
beforehand the secret to those who were isten rt
to be taken in. But the whole of this artless .3
will be quite at au end when the Redistributle

Bill is laid on the table. Lord Stanley, how
suggested that the Ministry may have an art for

Nothing is more easy than to do a friend a gc s
turn in such a case, unless the borough he sits for 5
notoriously and ludicrously bad. And this iseav

changes are made in the Redistribution Bill time, •
the Franchise Bill has been read a second er

ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Belt-
way Terminus, King's-cross.
This Hospital, founded in the year 1823, the first to estab-
lish the principle of ft ee admission to the sick poor, without
the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly de-
pendent for support on voluntary contributions and INivites.
It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, In
addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
lestitute sick has for a considerable period averaged between
1,000 and 4,000 meekly.
