BELOW THE SURFACE : A Story of English
Country Life. 3 vols.

" This is a book which possesses the rare merit of being exactly
what it claims to be. The various features of provincial life in
England are well sketched. The author has gone fearless!, below
the surface, and exposed much that is as true as it is terrible."—
Daily News.
" The book is unquestionably clever and entes :stifling. It is a tale
superior to ordinary novels in its practical application to the phases
of actual life. The style is level, plain, and in good taste—felicitous
epigrams flashing through the tissue here and there."—Athenmum.
•

" The novel keeps the attention fixed, and it is written in a
genial, often playful tone, co that, although containing much that is
romantic in its incide.,ts, there is no strain for effect. The temper
is throughout excellent."—Examiner.

" It is a novel worth reading, and some parts of it are worth re-
membering. The story offers many points of interest and dramatic
power ; and there is considerable humour in some of the scenes."--.-
Econo—ist. _ . .

" Below the Surface,' bears out the title well. The incidents are
naturally and dramatically introduced, and all the provincial scenes
are vividly represented. It is a decided success."—Press.

I must likewise set myself right as to intention.
Aware that all the appointments are filled up, and duties
assigned, I do not seek to interfere with the employment

I entertain the customary professional dislike. My object
in addressing you is this ; If an attempt is made to lay
down your cable in the manner formerly practised it
will be lost, as would likewise be the case with a tele-
graph cable of any other size, form, or construction
(patented or not) similarly treated ; the dimensions and
powers of yours, unstretched,' appearing sufficient and
unobjectionable, the danger being in the mode of sub-
mersion.

tion) by which the electric cable may be safely and cer-
tainly extended uninjured, between Ireland and Ame-
rica,- or any other two even more distant points; but

between riskingsttin,losivof the le and incurring the
extra-first cost (a trifle, however, when compared with
Pat a miscarriage involves) to insure its safety, speedy
adaptation to the purpose intended, and the certain com-
pletion of your most important undertaking. If the
funds at present subscribed do not admit of this; rather
than lose the cable on explanation of the plan proposed
(which every practical man of common sense must then
at once sae the actual necessity of adopting), there can-
not be a doubt your shareholders and the public would
readily supply the additional capital required.
Although you may not deem it advisable at once to
entertain my proposition, in averring that I feel con-
vinced some such improved method will have to be
adopted shortly, I hope you understand the great work
contemplated carries with it my best wishes for its suc-
cessful accomplishment, by any means whatsoever : the
preceding experience-based prognostication originating
only in a conviction on my part that, with present means
and appliances, the difficulties you have to e#counter
amount to actual physical impossibilities.

PROPOSED MEETING ON THE RENEWAL OF
THE BANK CHARTER.

(From the Bankers' Circular.)
The monetary reformers who have laboured long
and hard to impress upon the public mind the in-
consistencies, the injustice, and the anomalies, of
our monetary system, which have arisen entirely
from the encouragement of a monopoly enj9yed by
a single Joint-Stock Company, will be glad to hear
that a meeting will be held at the London Tavern,
on Wednesday next, to take into consideration the
best means for bringing the matter before the
public. We need not express our surprise at the
proposed step ; for we are more surprised that,
after the condemnation of the present system by
nearly every Chamber of Commerce in the: United
Kingdom, no attempt has hitherto been iznade to
express the views of commercial men in some con-
centrated form of action. They have stooid aloof
until there appears a storm in the horizoia which
threatens them with calamity.- It is trut, there
are to be found here and there a few gentle-
men, who, like the honourable member for
Peterborough, can see nothing but sbnshine
dazzling before them : to whom trade and commerce
are represented in the most glowing terms. " Look
at our exports," these gentlemen exclaim ; " every
succeeding year and every month our commerce is
expanding ; look at our immense consumption of
every kind of provision, what greater proof can we
have that all goes on well ; and that the vessel of
the State. is sailing onwards in safe water with a
favourable gale to assist her 7" We look to no such
facts, though true they may be, for a correct esti-
mate of our position ; and we hesitate not to say
that he who will venture to affirm that trade and
commerce are flourishing, or that the industrious
classes are in a thriving condition in this country,
knows nothing of the truth, or that he wilfully
misrepresents it : it signifies, therefore, but little
on which horn of the dilemma he is placed. " Well,
what has all this to do with the Bank Charter ?"
some will say. "Money, like all other commodi-
ties, is worth what it will bring ; and they who
deal in it have a right to all they can get for its
use." This is the creed of the mere capitalist ; and
any attempt made to refute it is as useless as talk-
ing to the winds. It has become a national prin-
ciple ; and life, religion, morality, and humanity,
all sink before its unbending laws. Well, but what
has the Bank Charter to do with this ? A slight
glance at the subject will be sufficient to let in a
little light upon the matter. The people who occupy
the British islands are an industrious people : they
toil, when employment can be found, at every de-
scription of tabour ; aud the productions of their
'skill are scattered over all the known regions of the
globe. By the constancy of their energy, we are
placed in the possession of every article of necessity
and of luxury that the world produces ; and it is,
we believe, doubtful whether a famine has ever
existed at any time amongst such a class; without
its being the result of some interference with the
laws of nature and of justice. It only requires .a
simple thoughtto show that under asystem of iudus-
trial freedom such as this, the power of supplying the
wants of man is illimitable. How, then, is it,
that in such a country periodical cycles of misery,
distress, aud want, are continually recurring ? Let
us look a little further into this, and we shall find
that there exists an intermedihte power, which is
ever at work to produce this state of things ; and
men become so accustomed to it, that they regard
it as the result of some natural law, over which
man, with all his intellectual superiority and su-
premacy, has no control. This is precisely the case
with the distress that periodically visits the indus-
trious classes of this country. It is not traced to
t
its source through the various channels in whichs
is generated. It is the monopolizing t hchaaracter
which is found in our money that laws
per-
meated into every class of society ;f
andoproduction
ofno matter
how great, or extensive the
may be, such is the naturepowersthese
their power, that they can
and like Alexander the
absorb the industry of
nations in their g
Great, regret that ;hihrasseyp.ave not more to consume.
It is to these laws that we must trace a famine in
1 the milt of abundance ; and a variety of disorders
I that frequently occur to disorganize the commercial
. and industrious classes of
hthee community. These
laws are now exercising
.t ir influence over the
most wealthy and industrious classes of this. king-
do4; and will finally succeed in throwing thou-
sands of our most skilful artizans out of employ.
If we look to the manufacturing districts, what is
the state of things there ? The mills in, and around
Manchester, we are told are working only forty
hours per week. Do the well-to.do in life know
what this means 7 At Bradford, the rates offered
by purchasers for goods for exportation, are below
the present cost of making. At Nottingham, the
demand for hosiery for the home trade is completely
stagnant ; and " shipping orders," says the Not-
tingham Journal, are like " angels visits, and far
between." At Leicester, mills are working short
time. This is an outline of our trade in textile fa-
brics ; but the same condition is felt in almost every
other branch of industry which has not the same
means of giving it publicity. Trade circulars of
all branches continually speak of a " stagnant
trade,'?,because prices for manufactured goods.cannot
be obtained. But why not? The whole secret of/hese
low prices is found in a restriction of the circulating
medium, with an expanded trade ; with raw mate-
rialsadvancing, and reduced wages ; with dear

f which 3,379 were new cases, the remainder (still under treat-
ment) having been admitted previously.
The clergy of all denominations have unlimited access to the
patients.
Heavy expenses are Inevitably Incurred in affording such exten-
sive relief. The Committee, therefore, earnestly entreat the aid of
he public.
The management of the Hospital is in the hands of 30 Governors,
yearly elected from the general list of subscribers, at the Annual
,eneral Meeting in January. A Board is held every Thursday, a,
4 o'clock (Rev. J. B. Owen, Chairman), to conduct the business,
when any subscriber may attend, If so disposed, the Board being at
all times desirous of receiving suggestions or giving explanation.
The Hospital is not endowed, but is wholly dependent on volun-
tary contributions and legacies, which are received by the Treasurer,
John Alasterman, Esq., M.P., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts
snd Co.; Drummond and Co.; Berries and Co.; Ransom and Co.;
Prescott, Grote, and Co. ; Smith, Payne, and Co.; Glyn and Co. ;

THE- IPBMWCIT ELMO-ear
TERIAL CIRCULAR.

The following appears in yesterday's Moniteur :
" The Minister of the Interior has just addressed
to the prefects the fullowing circular :
"Paris, May 30; 1857.

_ .
"Monsieur le Prefet,—By the terms of the con-
stitution and the decree of May 29, the Legislative
Corps, nominated in 1852, has finished its mission.
The country is now about to elect its deputies
anew. The Emperor calls to the ballot-box nine
millions of electors, and demands from all of them
a free and loyal vote. In this case, for the guid-
ance of yourself and of others, it is necessary you
should well know what the attitude of the govern-
ment will be, and what principles will direct its
conduct. A strong and popular government says
clearly what it thinks and what it wishes. As for
the elections, what the Emperor desires is the free
and sincere practice of universal suffrage. The
electoral lists have been dawn up largely and
liberally. Every one having the right has been
able to get himself admitted upon them : 9,521,220
citizens have been registered in them. On the day
of election the vote will be secret, and the ballot-
boxes will be opened in the sight of all. The truth-
fulness and independence of the vote are therefore
guaranteed.
"In presence of this liberty assured to every-
body, and when candidates and electors can all pro-
claim their preference the government cannot alone
remain mute and indifferent. It will clearly tell
the country what names have its confidence and
what seems to deserve theconfidence of the people ;
as it proposes the laws to the deputies, it will pro-
pose the candidates to the electors, and these will
make their choice.

" Distinguishing themselves by a devotedness
already old and tried, and rallying round a dy-
nasty that constitutes the glory and safety of the
country, a great number of men, eminent by their
fortunes, their services, or the just consideration
that surrounds them. have solicited the official can-
didateships. But France has not forgotten the
words of the speech from the throne at the opening
of the session of 1857. 'Since this session is the
last of your legislative career,' said the Emperor to
the deputies, 'permit me to thank you for the as-
sistance, so devoted and so active, that you have
afforded me since 1852. You have proclaimed the
empire ; you have taken a share in all those mea-
sures that have re-established order and pros-
perity in the country ; you have energetically
sustained me during the war ; you have shared my
griefs during the epidemic and the scarcity ; you
partook of my joy when Heaven gave me a glorious
peace and a well-beloved son ; your loyal co-ope-
ration has permitted me to establish in France a
form of government based on popular will and
interests. It was a difficult task to fulfill, and
for which true patriotism was required, to accustom
the country to new institutions. To substitute
for the license of the tribune, and the contests that
led to the fall or rise of ministers, a free but calm
and serious discussion, was a signal service ren-
dered to the country and to freedom itself, for
liberty has no. enemies more formidable than the
excesses of passion and violence of speech.' . . .
This striking testimony summed up six years of
devotedness ; therefore, saving some exceptions
commanded bti special necessities, the government
has deemed it just and politio to present for re-
election all the members of an assembly which has
so ably seconded the Emperor and served the

country.
" In the face of these candidateships openly ac-
knowledged and resolutely sustained, the opponent
candidateships may freely come forward.
"Our legislation respecting the distribution of
the voting tickets has lately been calumniated,
nevertheless the rules upon, that subject are simple
and liberal. During the 20 days preceding the
election every candidate that shall have submitted
to the formality of legally depositing a copy, signed
by himself, of his circulars, profession of faith, or
voting tickets, will be able, without the need of
any other authorisation, to have them advertised
and distributed in perfect liberty ; every elector
who, not satisfied with writing his vote, or causing
his vote to be written, and thus exercising his in-
dividual right, shall be desirous of making a can-
didateship known, may freely distribute the voting
tickets for it, if upon one of these tickets, legally
deposited, the signature of the candidate records
his assent. Assuredly, with these conditions, it
may be said that the party proposing to be elected,
and the elector, will have complete freedom, the
one to come forward, the other to express his
choice, and propose him to his fellow-citizens. If,
nevertheless, the enemies of the public peace should
think to find in this latitude an opportunity of
making a seditious protest against our institutions,
if they should attempt to convert into an instru-
ment of disorder or scandal, you know your duties,
Monsieur le Prefet, and justice would also know
how not less severely to perform hers. But these
excesses will not take place ; should they be at-
tempted, their suppression will inflict no injury on
the freedom of universal suffrage ; thrice conse-
crated by him, the Emperor always invokes it with
confidence. When in 1851 and 1852 eight millions
of votes delivered to him the crown and the desti-
nies of the country, there was in that remarkable
vote the love blended with pride which France
experienced at the very bottom of her heart
for the dynasty of the Napoleons. Between
her and them there was the feeling of an indis-
soluble union of glory and misfortune ; there
was also the fear of anarchy and the hope of a
strong government friendly to the people. At the
there is the same popular prestige
aroundpresent dapthe Buonapartes, but for more than six
fruits
a of war
prosperity and t h eenhanced
years there has been a fruitful and glorious admin-
istration,
peace,
an irameri
these s
material p
wonderful sentiment of our national t
grea ness. The
reality' has surpassed the hopes. Such results which
ought to convince and unite all elevated minds are
perfectly understood by the loyal I b a ourers of our
fields, and bythe intelligent km
wor en of our towns.
That great mass of laborious men who form the wide
basis of Universal suffrage have a profound convic-
tion both of the incessant
care of the Emperor, for
themselves, and .of the great things which he is
doing for the Colll.ll`
zy. Call them all to the ballot-
box, Monsieur le Prefect ; they made-the Empire,
and they love it ; they would incase of need know
how to defend it. Full of confidence in the man of
their choice, they rely upon him, and would wil-
lingly abstain from taking part in the voting,
which in the regular working of the constitution is
periodically required of them ; urge them to come
and name their deputies : be sure and tell them,
that it is necessary top rove once more by the mass
of their votes the full strength of that government
which they have founde d. The imperceptible mi-
nority of the hostile par ties, if it dares to come for-
ward, will be drowned in this immense popular
manifestation, and it will be for the world a grand
and eloquent spectacle to see nine millions of elec-
tors, in this country once so easily disturbed, com-
ing peaceably at the voice of the Emperor, and be-
stowing upon their deputies for six years more the
mission of faithfully seconding him in his constant
efforts for the glory and pro sperity of France.
" These general considei•ations will guide you,
Monsieur le Prefet, in direr sting the electoral ope-
rations. Detailed instructions will be shortly sent
to you, and should special circumstances occur you
will have to refer to me about them.
" Receive, Monsieur le Prefet, the assurance of
my most distinguished consideration.
" The Minister of the Int erior, BILLAIILT.
