and yet now, without any consultation'at all with
the shareholders, the Government are stated in
some of the Italian journals to have entered into
an important convention with the firm of Guastalla

taken in the matter.

THEFT OF £5OO IN MANCHESTER.

Yesterday, at the City Police Court, Charles
Garwood was charged before Mr. Fowler with
having, on the Bth November, stolen the sum of
£5OO belonging to his employer, Mr. J. N. Sale,
insurance broker, Princess-street ; and George
Henry Carr was charged with being an accomplice
in the theft.

Mr. Jordan, who appeared for the prosecution,
said that Garwood was, until lately, a con tidenti.d.
clerk in the employ of Mr. Sale, and Carr was his
brother-in-law. Carr had been in the habit for
some time, without Mr. Sale's knowledge, of fre-
quenting that gentleman's place of business. On the
day in question, during the employer's absence
in Liverpool, Garwood received from various
persons, on his employer's account, cheques and
gold amounting to £5OO, with which he absconded.
It was discovered that he had sailed for America
along with Car. Information was sent per At-
lantic cable to the Halifax (N.S.) police, and
upon their landing there the prisoners were de-
tained until the arrival of Sergeant Torr, from
Manchester, who brought them back. All that he
(Mr. Jordan) proposed to do was to call evidence
upon which he could ask for a remand. The
charge would ultimately be brought home to both
prisoners.

Sergeant rlorr said he went to Halifax with a
warrant to arrest the prisoners upon the present
charge. Tbey were given into his custody by the
Halifax police. Within a week he had no doubt
the evidence in support of the charge would be
complete., Some bank notes found on the prisoners
had been detained in Halifax, the police there pro-
mising to forward them to Capt. Palin, but they
had not been received.—The prisoners were re-
manded for a week.

The San Francisco Bulletin says :—" More farms
have been cut up and sold in this state during the
presont year, probably, than in any three previous
years."

The Lizard, 2, 150 horse power, Lieut.-Com-
mander S. G. Price, iron paddle wheel steamer, is
in dock at Chatham, where she is undergoing a
thorough overhaul and repair to both hull and ma-
chinery, after her term of service on the coast of
Scotland, where she was employed in the protection
of the fisheries.

arrived in a Ministry comprising such diverse spirits„as
Lord Stanley, Mr. Hardy, and Mr. Disraeli. Xfatt had
the imminent peril of falling to pieces not presented itself,
it was most important for Mr. Disraeli to avoid the
necessity of showing his cards at the opening of Parliament,
especially as in reality he had not a card to show.
The Advertiser is satisfied with the course of the Ministry.
A principal characteristic of the present day is the vast
progress which is made, and which is making, in plans
and devices for the saving of time. Now a more obvious
or more rational plan for such saving could not easily be
pointed out, than by doing away with these useless
gatherings and orations in Parliament, when the end is
perfectly foreseen from the beginning. Both the members
of the two Houses, and also the persons who expect to
form the new Administration, will be indebted to Mr.
Disraeli for sparing them all this useless trouble.

CHILDREN'S REVIVALS.

In the Monthly Magazine Mr. Spurgeon notices
the criticisms upon the children's services in his
Tabernacle. He does not consider himself responsible
for them. He did not take any part in them,
did not invite Mr. Hammond, and was not even pre-
sent on one occasion. He says : "We cannot
refuse to lend our vast building to good men without
acting the part of the dog in the manger ; and,
at the same time, we are not prepared to be praised
or blamed for all which may be done by persons
to whom we so lend it." As to the services, Mr.
Spurgeon says : "We cannot at this moment say
more, personally, as to the services, than that they
have evidently been a blessing to our school ; and
that, with much that is not at all to our taste, there
was the true ring of fervent love to Christ in them,
and we intend to wait and watch results. As to
frightening or terrifying the children, nothing of the
sort was attempted or accomplished ; such remarks
shew a want of information." With all this, Mr•
Spurgeon declines any responsibility in the matter.
Were a clergyman of the Church of England to take
this ground if the services at his church had been
criticised, we know that he would have to shift it.
If the Tabernacle is only a large hall, to be devoted
to any purpose not absolutely pernicious, then it may
be that Mr. Spurgeon is right. He does not deny
any of the leading features of the services as hitherto
reported ; and we still think the conductors of such
services are strangely ignorant of the organisation
snd training of children.

HONOURS AT OXFORD.

The undergraduates of Oxford are making a cry
just now about the treachery of examiners, who allow
themselves to be " drawn out." Thus it is generally
known that this man was a good first, the other a
bad second, and his friend the best third, while
it is actually true that rumours get about
as to which class a man has got before the list comes
out. The love of power which is given to the possessor
of secrets, though chiefly a feminine weakness, is not
unknown to the other sex, and it must be sore
temptation to an examiner to be able to confide
what some men are dying to know.

AFTERIVARDS.

Even after the elections are over the bitter-
ness on each side seems in many cases to remain.
In the Tower Hamlets, for instance, Mr. Beales seems
to be " hoping against hope" that " something
may turn up " to invalidate the election.
His supporters have learnt that many voters were
prevented from polling, some because they had not
their right number given to them others because the
poll-clerks told them that by mistake their names
were not on the register. Those who had been can-
vassing on the other side, and two of Mr. Samuda's
apprentices, acted as poll-clerks. Mr. Beales com-
plained bitterly of his defeat. He told a meeting of
his :supporters, in a very roundabout way, that the
Government had officially done all it could to prevent
his being returned. "He had heard it stated by a
gentleman that one of the police told him that one
of that body had orders from headquarters—from
the Government, in fact—to do the best they could
to prevent his being returned." Mr. Roebuck, too,
must have a parting fling at his late constituents.
He writes rather snappishly to a gentleman
who had informed him that at a working men's
meeting his toast had been enthusiastically received.
Though declaring that he should alwava look anon

-C_

~~_~ ~_~

Sheffield with friendship, he adds (by way of note)
" The way in which my long connection with that
town has been severed is certainly not pleasant, but
if there be disgrace attending it that disgrace will nch
attach to me or my friends." The defeated eandi.
dates for Southampton, too, complain of corrupt
practices. •

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.
The supply of beasts is not large, and mainly con-
sists of those left over from Monday last, and are
inferior in quility. Trade is heavy, and a clearance can-
nect be effected. The few choice fresh beasts find pur-
chasers at nearly late rates. The number of sheep ex-
ceeds the demand. Choicest qualities make about as on
Monday ; but ewes and inferior kinds continue to sell
very badly. Choice calves aro still dear.

tho natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.
London, England, 1868-12-03

THE RESULT.

The elections are now virtually over. When
Orkney and Shetland and the Scotch Universi-
ties have made their choice, the House will
be complete. As it stands, the Liberals
have, according to the Times, made a net gain of
fifteen votes, counting thirty in a division. Of the
new House, it is worth notice that it contains
over 200 new members, who never sat before,
and that there are about a score to add, who, though
sitting in former Parliaments were shut out from the
last. England has not given a very large Liberal
majority, the numbers standing 246 to 213 ;
but Scotland has returned only seven Conservatives,
thus very decisively increasing the majority.
Ireland also has, by a proportion of 66 to 30, declared
in favour of Mr. Gladstone. The Ministerial papers
at first began to gloat over the large towns ; but it
has been shewn very conclusively that, except in Lan-
cashire, the large towns have proclaimed in favour of
the Liberals. In the English counties, however, the
Tories have returned 131 members against the 50
of their opponents.

The defeat of certain well-known directors of
joint-stock companies has already been noted ; and
the almost total absence of the Independent Liberal
element has been commented upon. There is left
behind a very fair working House, and one which
contradict, very plainly the alarmists who prophesied
every bad thing for the Reformed Parliament. It is
not, as the Pall Mall Gazette says, "calculated to
inspire anyone with much enthusiasm." But what
untried body of men would be ?

THE MONTH.

The month just past has been, like its predesessor,
one after the meteorologist's own heart. There have
been earthquakes, frightening quiet people out of
their mind. But earthquakes have been " nuts "to
the confraternity which watches the heavens and the
earth. The stars have been going off like popguns,
and thereat the typical " ignorant rustic " has trem-
bled. But the gentlemen of the telescope have rejoiced
with great joy. The volcanoes have threatened to swal-
low up great towns. But then it has added another
piece of evidence to the theory about subterranean
waves. More than this, accounts have been coming
in day by day of the eclipse which the native Indian
saw, and wasn't pleased with; and at the end
of the month came the announcement that
two scientific explorers had succeeded in construct-
ing instruments through which certain phenolnena,
which had only as yet been seen during eclipses,
might be perceived on ordinary occasions. Alto-
gether we have to congratulate the meteorologists.
November—Mr. Alnatt, the Times correspondent,
informs us—opened very mildly. The temperature
was above the average. But then a cold season
set in, bringing with it increased mortality. Or,
as Mr. Alnatt has it, the "sudden acces-
sion of premature frigidity produced a tempo-
raryincrease of human mortality." On the 6th
the temperature became as low as 34 deg., and on
the 7as 23 deg. After some unimportant fluctua-
tions, t rose again on the 22nd, and varied com-
paratively to the end of the month. There were
several gales, but nothing—considering the season—

ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,

President-I-His Grace the Duk© of BUCCLECII, K.G.

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to
establish tho principle of free admission to the sick poor,
without the delay and difficulty of Governors' ordors, is
wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions
and legacies.

It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in
addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
desticuto sick has for a considerable period averaged be-
tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the
benevolent, as the promises of this hospital are capable of
containing several hundred more beds had the Committee
the requisite funds to maintain them.
Contributions aro received by thoir bankers, Messrs.
Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abchurch-lane ; also by Messrs.
Couits and Co.; Drummond and Co.; Glyn and Co.;
Harries and Co.; Ransom and Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and
Co.; Smith, Paya.), and Co.; Barclay and Co.; Williams,
Deacon, and Co.; Nisbet and Co., Bernerti-street ; and at
the Hospital from 10 till 5.

THE MERCANTILE MARINE.

Mr. Harry Leach, of the hospital ship Dread-
nought, having noticed a letter in the Times from
Mr. Hall, of Newcastle, on the subject of the demand
and supply of British sailors, writes to that paper to
draw attention to the neglect of sanitary arrange-
ments for the health of the sailors. When a ship
starts on a voyage good care is taken to
have a supply of spare spars, sails, and
ropes]; but spare men cannot be taken, and so,
unless proper attention be paid to the sustenta-
tion of crews and to the preservation of skilled
hands, no number of training ships will be able to
find sufficient material or manufacture enough
sailors to supply the increasing wants of our mercantile
marine. The; Merchant Shipping Act of last year is
a step in the right direction, and the beneficial results
will appear six or eight months hence. There still
remains, however, a strange apathy amongst ship-
owners on the subject of diet and health. Varied
provisions of good quality can be procured at as cheap
a rate as salt beef or porknand every captain can
take a sound and healthy crew with him by the means
provided by the Legislature. Mr. Leach thinks that
attention to these matters is in the interests of sound
commercial economy. There are many higher
reasons than these,. reasons which should never appeal
to humanity in vain. Our jolly, generous Jack Tar
of the stage type is too often represented by a
wretched creature, distorted in body and mind—a
prematurely old man through hardship, and a
cunning villain, in spite of the traditions of
fiction.

_AMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
AA EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
Having 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 few minutes after taking it.
