LAIVIBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a fow minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 13id., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Be particular, and ask for Lambert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

it cannot bo detected, and may be worn during sleep. A

the body, two inches below the hips, being sent to the

EDUCATION.

In this section, Miss Marian Hill read a paper on the
question, " How can we eradicate the pauper taint from
our workhouse children ?" The difficulties incidental to
removal of the " pauper taint," such as pauper association,
feeble constitution, absence of natural training, and home
life, having been severally noticed, the author proceeded
to slew that for orphans or deserted children there was no
plan, both for cheapness and efficiency, equal to that
known under the name of " the boarding-out system,"
practised by most of the large Scotch parishes, and in use
to a certain extent, either under private or official
superintendence, in Ireland, France, Russia, Germany,
the United States, and also a few parishes in England.
The paper then described a series of visits made to eleven
houses for pauper children in the neighbourhood of Edin-
burgh. The houses were situated in villages three or four miles
Prom the city ; they were all found to be clean and well
ventilated. In one cottage the mother was found nursing
her own very weakly child, while its sturdy little foster-
sister had been out gleaning. Any little sums of money
gained by the children in this way they are induced to put
by as a fund for starting them in life. In another cottage
were two pretty, delicate-looking girls, daughters of a
soldier away, no one knew where ; while their mother, a
permanent pauper, afflicted with a mental disease, had
been allowed her omnibus fare to come and see them.
Suitable clothing, it was stated, was furnished by the
authorities at a cost of about 30s. per annum per
child, it being the duty of the foster-mother to
keep the clothes in good repair. Care is taken
that frocks and jackets of the same patterned stuffs are
not sent to the same village, so that nothing may mark
the children as different from those around them. The
children who are likely to be more than four months
indoor paupers are all thus placed out, the payments for
their support, &c., being always made in advance twice
a year at the rate of 2s. 6d. per week. The cost of each
child's maintenance is about £8 16s. Miss Hill concluded
her address by pointing out that the object of the system
was not to coddle the children, not to educate them above
their rank, but to employ the most natural means of
training them physically and mentally for the work they
would have to do, and to place them in the most advan-
tageous position for beginning thAt wcork.

SPORTING NOTES.

The Newmarket October Meeting, which commences
to-day, will witness the decision of the second last of the
great autumn handicaps. To-morrow (Tuesday) the
most conspicuous features in the list are the Cesare-
witch and Clearwell. The Cesarewitch Handicap (21-
miles) will attract a strong field, notwithstanding the
favour in which Blue Gown and other horses are at pre-
sent held. Paul Jones is overweighted, and is not nearly
so good a horse as his owner believes him to ba. Hermit

will perhaps do battle for th 3 Chaplia-Machell division,
and that ho will play a prominent part in the race we
have little doubt, as he is not overweightod 9st,. when

it is remembered ho is a Derby winner. Now that Ilium is
amiss, Cliff's stable will have to rely on Kidderminster, 7st
61b ; but although the last-n mad horse will stay the dis-
tance, we have no fancy for him, neither should I have had
for Ilium had he kept well. Cowley's pair are The
Mariner aad Papillon, and the first-named, though he is
ILA well in, will probably run `in Mr. Brayley's interests,
with little chance, however, of winning. Marquis of Cara-
bas is said to be a useful outsider, but I think him an

overrated horse. Guy of Warwick, Knight Errata, and
the colt by Tom Bowline out of Makeshift, are Joseph
Dawson's lot; but although Knight Errant is a good horso
when his day arrives, I cannot trust either of this trio

MUNICIPAL LAW.

The special question, "Is it desirable to amend the
present law which gives the personal property and
earnings of a wife to her husband?" was discussed in a
paper by Mr. W. Strickland Cookson, who set out with
the assumption that the form of the question was an
admission that the state of the law at present was faulty
and susceptible of amendment. It was urged against the
alteration of the law to the extent of placing the earnings
and property, however small, of the wife under her abso-
solute control, that it would be unjust while the
responsibilities of the husband remained the same.
Further, it was contended that the alteration would
be of little practical benefit, except in the case of
absolute separation, and then the wife ought to be pro-
tected in her property, as well as in her person, to all
intents and purposes as if she were a femme sole, but with
a liability to contribute to the maintenance of the children,
if any. Mr. Cookson suggested that it would be a wise
thing for Parliament to pass an Act containing numerous
schedules of settlements in various forms, and enacting
that at the time of their marriage the parties should
declare which of them they intended to adopt, and that
that should be their settlement. A column in the
marriage register might contain conclusive evidence on the
subject. With the cases of privation and misery in
married life resulting from the gross misconduct of one or
other of the parties, the magistrate, it was observed, had
power to deal, and could protect the property and earnings
of the wife in the event of desertion. Why, it was asked,
should not the magistrate have power to protect that pro-
perty in other instances of misconduct, and order a separa-
tion on the application of either where the misconduct of
the other has been such as to justify it? After such an
order, which might, if thought desirable, be subject to
appeal the husband and wife should be respectively free
froN all reameibilities for or control over each other„

MARLBOROUGH STREET.

MISCHIEVOUS CONDUCT AT THE ALHAMBRA
PALACE. —Browes Trist, a gilder, and Elizabeth
Rogers, servant, were charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt with behaving in a disorderly manner at the
Royal Alhambra Palace, Leicester-square, and
Rogers was further charged with assaulting
Henry Roberts, a constable employed at the Al.
hambra Palace.

Mr. Sayer, from the office of Mr. Edward Lewis,
Great Marlborough-stret, appeared in supp3rt of
the complaint, and said that on Saturday night the
prisoner and another person, who wa3 not in court,
were in the gallery of the Alhambra,there being about
s,oo)persons present at the time,aud they were foolish
and mischievous enough to drop pieces of paper
on the chandelier, so that they fell lighted among the
persons below, making them think that the place was
on fire,and that things were falling from the ceiling.
They were ordered out of the place, but as they
refusA to leave they were removed and given into
custody.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said such conduct was highly
dangerous, as persons got alarmed, and there was
now knowing what might occur.
M. John Reeves, superlutendent at the Alham-
bra Palace, said that on Saturday night he was in
the pit of the Alhambra, where he saw some pieces
of lighted paper coming down, and noticed the
female prisoner lighting pieces of paper in the jets
of a chandelier, and with the other prisoner drop-
ping them into the pit. lie went to the prisoners
and told them that such an act might cause great
alarm, and requested them to cease, aid, as they
would not do so, he sent for the police and give
them into custody.

Henry Roberts said that on att,mopting to re-
move the prisoners the femal.3 prisoner scratched
his hands.

The female prisoner said that the pieces of paper
blew over while she was looking at them, and the
male prisoner said that it was not paper, bat Thatch
metal, which was being used in the decorations of
the Haymarket theatre.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said were persons who were open
to all sorts of mischief to please themselves to the
annoyance of everybody else. There was great
danger in such conduct as the prisoners had been
guilty of, as it was calculated to cause great alarm,
and there might have been loss of life. The pri-
soners, who were a couple of foolish persons, had
been locked up, and mort properly so, and it served
them right. The female would have to pay ss.
for assaulting Roberts, and the man would be dis-
charged.
