WIIO WOULD NOT DL A PAUPER ?

Under the present poor-law arrangements we may
pride ourselves on providing our paupers with very
inferior articles at the highest possible price. One of
the papers refers to a statement made by a St. Pan-
cras guardian, that the children of that parish cost
the ratepayers lls. 3d. each per week. On referring
to the annual report of the Poor-law Board to test
that assertion, our contemporary finds the workhouse
children of St. Pancras arc in the Central London
Pauper School. Now, in 1805, the cost of maintaining
and educating a child at that establishment. was
£2B 10s. 10d. for the twelve months ; in 180(3 it was
returned at £29 18s. sd. ; but better management,
we presume, reduced the expense in 1807 to
£24 10s. ld. At the lowest of these sums nearly a
whole year's wages of a strong but unskilled man
would be consumed by the expenditure on one child.
A dock labourer, for example, gets 15s. a week at full
work; but if he obtain employment for nine months
in the year he is rather fortunate, and his total earn-
ings would be then £2B 10s. A family of four children
at schoolgoing ages is not an unusually large one, but
at the St. Pancras rate it would entail an outlay of
£l2O a year.

t :in be put in a minority on that prospe,z'..e amend-
ment, and equally for certain that they would,
being so put in a minority upon the amendment, hand
over to the victorious lea icr of Pppositi Mn the
responsibility of at once fornin6 v
tion. It is in no way discreditable to Mr. Dist:AT...Li
as a Party Chieftain that we have here
immediately to add, what is already sufficiently
notorious throughout the country, that in hitn we
have now at our head as Prime Minister no .ordi-
nary tactician. So perfect a master is he of fence,
so consummate is his skill in all the oats of strategy,
that it is simply impossible to predicate even now
as a result in any way assured or inevitable, that
with all Mr. GLADSTONE'S fair prcspects of meeting Par-
liameLt with a swinging majority at his back, the Leader
of the Oppositon is at once to leap per saltum, before
Christmas, into the post of First Lord of the-Treasury.
On the contrary, one is almost tempted to say that the
immediate probabilities are, first, that the Opposition
supporters will enormou6ly outnumber the Govern-
mentsupporters, and that, nevertheless, notwithstand-
ing, the Government will not go out before Christ-
mas as the inevitable...consequence. In any case
the opportunity for the country's decision, one way
or the other, is now formally guaranteed to us by the
authoritative announcement, this day put forth to
the effect that on the I.lth instant Parliament
-a be dissolved by Royal Proclamation.
In so arranging matters for the dissolution of the
present House of Commons and the electing and as-
sembling of the new House immediately afterwards so
that all should be known and accomplished before
the arrival of Christmas, Ministers have most
honourably fulfilled their engagements with the out-
going House of Commons, and at the same time kept
faith most strictly with the whole population of
the United Kingdom. As distinguished public
men, as statesmen of eminence, they could not have
done otherwise. And yet—while saying this, it is
perfectly well known that the more virulent of the
opponents of the present Ministry are in the habit of
speaking of Mr. DIsRAELI and his colleagues as
though they were the reverse of men of honour, as
though they were so many political adven-
turers, as though they were conducting the
affairs of this country by a sort of organised
scheme of Parliamentary thimble-rigging. As Li-
berals, we must protest against the very despicable
character of the imputations thus insinuated against
Leaders of party as honourable, we are perfectly
certain of that, as any who have ever undertaken
the administration of the affairs of this country. In
speaking of Mr. DISRAELI as a tactitian, or as a
master of strategy, we imply thereby nothing what-
ever in any way discreditable to him in his capacity
as a Statesman or as an Administrator.

Judging from the remarks of very many of his cen-
sors, both within and without the walls of Parliament
—not among journalists only but among the recog-
nised chiefs of party, now among thosa upon the front
bench of tin. Opposition, now amOngMr.DisnAEL's own
recent colleagues and supp‘xters ; jarlging from the
acrimony with which lie is always spoken of by his
princiial antagonist, Mr. GLADSTONE; judging from
the bitlerncss with which he is perpetually alluded to
the chief among his late colleagues in Lord DErtnY's

Burdirr?s second election speech but partially
recle,e:r. the barrenness of his first. On Monday last
.oi if 7,yholly to retrospect; on Friday
1- _1 contmued his historical survey, and gave but a
slight clue to his policy for the future in the expres-
sion of his dissatisfaction with the work of the past.
There is, however, a material improvement visible.
A history of politics which embraces a period of
half a century in a single speech can hardly be
rendered otherwise than bare and profitless even by
the oratorical power of Mr. BRIGHT. But a history
of the Reform struggle during the last two years is
at least something to the purpose. The ground has
been well worked before, but Mr. BRIGHT still finds
something interesting to record, and an important
item of policy to announce. The recital of the past
is decidedly better than the programme, so far as it
goes, of the future. Often as the story has
been told, Mr. BRIGHT puts the history of the
second Reform Act with novel force. Though the
fact was patent to all, it was hardly fully realised
that out of the sixty-one clauses proposed by the
Government in their original bill, only four remain
unaltered in the Act, and not one of these was of
prime importance, only one indeed of any
importance at all. The member for Birming-
ham is in many respects correct in his esti-
mate of the defects of the law, for in spite of all
the amendments, which ought to have produced
some results, it is by no means perfect. lie urges
that the bill must be amended at once. That the
ratepaying clauses of the Act should produce five
thousand distress warrants in Birmingham alone is
a most deplorable result. Mr. BRIGHT has been so
long occupied with Reform, that he seems unable
to bid it farewell for a time, but with the majority
of mankind weariness of the flesh is, after all, a
serious consideration. More serious still is the fact
that human life is so limited, that after a generation
spent in deciding how we may be governed, it is
time we got a little practice after our theory. An
amended Reform Act would, doubtless, meet favour
from the new House ; but it would re-open
old disputes and animosities, and cause an igno-
minious and unnecessary delay. And whilst the
bread is making the people are famishing. A host of
questions of practical importance awaits the new.
House. The Irish Church, Education, the Liquor
Traffic, and Trades Unions, stand where they did, whilst
the ghosts of countless slaughtered " innocents " rise
up to confront us. The necessities that have accu-
mulated during the Reform agitation have now
become overwhelming, and will permit of no longer
delay. The greatest benefits that can possibly accrue
from another squabble over the Constitution are con-
temptible compared with the great changes which
are necessary to give the languishing national life a
new stimulus. A short measure to relieve the hard-
ship of the ratepaying clauses might be sufficient for
the next session. When some of the arrears have
been cleared off, then will be the time to consider
more redistribution, and to discuss the results of the
experiment tried with the minority clause.

Mr. DOULTON has had a narrow escape. The
' Belgian tribunal has no doubt of his guilt, and but
for want of jurisdiction would have inflicted condign
punishment. The court did not acquit him, they
quashed the indictment ; the offence was proved, but
it had been committed in England, and was there-
fore out of reach. And now that all the facts have
been published, and Mr. DOULTON has made
by means of the press the defence which he refused
to submit to the court of justice, there can be little
hesitation in deciding that the verdict of the Belgian
tribunal is just. Divested of the numerous irrelevant
complexities which have transpired in the course of
the story, the case is not one of great difficulty.
In 1865 the authorities of Brussels announced their
determination to execute great improvements in the
Belgian capital, in particular the purification of the
River Senne. These works were undertaken by Mr.
DoutToN, who then sought to establish a company
to provide the necessary capital. The company was
formed, and a contractor was next required. After
representing that he had been in treaty with
Some of the leading English contractors, and had
not been rile to secure terms equally favourable,
Mr. DOULTON proposed a Belgian firm of the name
of MENTION and SoNs, and the contract was given to
it for £589,000. But this firm had, previously to
the formation of the company, undertaken to do
these same works for a sum less by £lOO,OOO
than that just quoted, and after the formation of the
Belgian Public Works Company, Mr. DOULTON made
a second contract with the MENTION firm at the
lower price ; that is, the Belgian Public Works Com-

ALARMING ACCIDEN7 WV THE SOUTH-
L.I.97ERN RAILWAY.-THIS DAY.

A railway collision, at one time threatening to
destroy hundrels of lives, took place this morning
on the South-Eastern Railway, at tho point
known as the Cannon-street Junction. A train,
made up of first, second, and third class
carriages, technically called '4 main line emp-
ties," bad been despatched from the Brick-

layer-arms station for the use of passengers await-
ing it at the chief terminus at Charing-cross, and
just as it arrived a'.; the point just mentioned it
came into collision with a train which had been
running up to the moment of the accident on the
North Kent line. The effect of the concussion
was very severe, and nine passengers received
very severe injuries, hut up to the present
time we have not heard that any have terminated
fatally. The officials at Charing-cross refused to
give any information on the subject, and although
they could not, when our reporter applied for infor-
mation, deny that an accident had occurred, he was
coolly referred to the general manager ; but where
he was to be found at that particular moment the
closely buttoned up official refused to say. That an
accident of an alarming nature has occurred is cer-
tain, but for fuller information we must wait.

OPENING OF TERM.—This Day.

The long vacation having closed, the courts of
law commenced their sitting to-day at Westmins-
ter-hall. The judges of the superior courts, accord-
ing to ancient custom, breakfasted with the Lord
Chancellor at his f rivate residence Cromwell-
house, Kensington, where a large assemblage of
Queen's counsel and Queen's sergeants were as-
sembled to meet them. The repast having been
concluded, the judges proceeded in State to their
respective courts. In Westminster Hall a very
large concourse of persobs assembled to witness
the imposing procession.
The business in the courts was, of course, in most
instances merely formal.

nefarious conspiracy. And yet, all the while, it is
