.--.-- -
This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to
establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor,
without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is
wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions
and legacies.
It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, iu
addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
destitute 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 premises of this hospital are capable of
containing several hundred more beds had the Committee
the requisite funds to maintain them.
Contributions are received by their bankers, Messrs.
Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abchurch-lane ; also by Messrs.
Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co. ; Glyn and Co,;
Herries and Co.; Ransom and Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and
Co.; Smith, Payne, and Co.; Barclay and Co. ; Williams,

REMARKS.

Barometrical readings are very uniform in amount : they are
slightly lower in the north, and higher in France than they were
yesterday morning ; but since last night pressure has been increasing
at almost all of our stations, especially in the north. Temperature
has increased considerably in the east, and diminished again in the
West. The winds during the past twenty-four hours have been light
and variable, and continue so this morning. At western stations
they have veered, and are northerly in Ireland. Some rain has fallen
at the northern and western stations, and it is raining heavily at
Aberdeen this morning. Thunder has occurred at Paris and
London.

The formation of a new Ministry is the only news of
importance from Australia. After eight weeks of nego-
tiation, success crowned the efforts of the Governor. His
difficulties were not all overcome, for a determined oppo-
sition to four members of the Cabinet was to be made at
the Ministerial elections. The Age thought it probable
that these four would be rejected, but the Argus was of
opinion that the whole Cabinet would be re-elected. The
new Ministers were divided on the question of the Darling
grant, but their unanimity now matters little. Sir Charles
Darling has refused to accept the grant, either in his own
name or that of Lady Darling. The Times' correspondent
says the Opposition make no secret of their intention to
refuse supplies to the new Government, so that a speedy
termination of the dead-lock does not seem probable.

Prince Alexander Karageorgeviteh has, of course, not
responded to the citation of the Belgrade tribunal, com-
manding him to appear before it without delay. It is now
stated that'the Hungarian Government will not give him
up to the Servian authorities. A telegram says that the
Servians arrested at Pesth will be tried there. This utterly
incomprehensible message does not state what will be
done with Prince Alexander. To try Servian subjects
at Pesth for a crime committed at Belgrade would be
certain to cause some difficulty ; but to try the
subordinates and allow Prince Alexander to escape without
even an inquiry would be an outrage to the Serviau nation
such as the Austrian Government can hardly be guilty of.
The insurrection in Crete has relapsed into its normal
condition. The policy of both Cretans and Mussulmans is
such that the " war " may last for any length of time, and
apparently without causing great inconvenience to the
contending parties. The insurgents, it seems, fight
when necessary ; but they prefer simply to
hold out. As they obtain their provisions and
other supplies pretty regularly, they are enabled to sus-
tain this species of resistance. The Post's correspondent
says the blockade is very badly kept up ; and is, indeed, a
great expense to no purpose. One Greek runner made
three trips in one week, on the first occasion taking 200
mon, then 150, and lastly 60 or 70, bringing away a like
number of WOM?,11 and sick. '.Lao Turkish fast vessels are

THE IRISH CHURCH.

MEETING IN CLERKENWELL-GREEN.
Last night an open-air meeting was held in Cler-
kenwell-green, convened by J. Finlen, chairman,
J. Meldrum, treasurer, and D. AI'S weeny, secre-
tary, of some committee not named, to condemn
the decision of the Peers on the Suspensory Bill,
preparatory to a great demonstration in Hyde Park
next Sunday. Half an hour after eight o'clock, the
time appointed for commencing the proceedings, the
parties who had got upthe meeting took their places
in a waggon drawn up in front of the Court-house,
on which there was displayed in white letters on a
green calico banneret, " Down with the Irish
Church." There were about 200 men and boys
present, evidently belonging to the lowest labour-
ing classes, and although in the course of the pro-
ceedings the number increased, it was at no time
numerous, considered as an out-door demonstra-
tion.

Mr. M'SWEENY, the secretary, stated that the
committee had received from societies in all parts of
London assurances of support in the intended de-
monstration, and that they would be met by them
with their bands and banners either on the route
from Clerkenwell-green, or in the park. Many
gentlemen of high standing had promised to assist,
either pecuniarily or personally, by their attend-
ance to take part in the proceedings. Amongst
these might be named Mr. W. P. Roberts, Mr. B.
Langley, and Mr. Bradlaugh. It was believed that
it would be a powerful demonstration of the opinion
of the classes who had no other day but Sunday at
their disposal.

The speakers who addressed the meeting earnestly
urged the attendance of the working classes, in
order to show the aristocracy of the Westrend that

THE REFORM' LEAGUE.

On Wednesday evening a meeting of the Reform League
was held at the offices of the association, under the presi-
dency of Mr. Edmond Beales. The chairman, in opening
the proceedings, said that it had been intended to discuss
the subject of the ballot, but, owing to unforeseen cir-
cumstances, the discussion of that question was post-
poned. The chairman then said he wished to bring before
the members of the League certain instructions re-
garding the subject of the lodger franchise. By the new
Reform Act, he said, every man of full age, and not sub-
ject to any legal incapacity, who for twelve months pre-
ceding the 31st of July has occupied as sole tenant the
same lodgings in one and the same dwelling-house, such
lodgings being of a clear yearly value, if let unfurnished,
of £lO or upwards, was entitled to claim to be regis-
tered as a voter. The value of the lodgings would
have to be proved before a revising barrister; and
where the lodgings had been taken unfurnished
the best proof of the clear yearly value would be the
amount of rent actually paid, such rent not being less
than £lO a year, or 4s. a week. The claim must be both
dated and delivered to the overseers of the parish in which
the lodgings are situate not earlier than the Ist nor later
than the 25th of August. A long desultery conversation
ensued, in which the arguments employed were addressed
for the most part to the discussion of technical points con-
tained in the new Reform Act regarding the lodger fran-
chise. One of the members present asked what was being
done as regarded the prosecution of those who had been
discovered as having created the disturbance at the recent
Guildhall meeting on the subject of the Irish Church. The
answer was that a report had been submitted to the
council, and that further measures were being adopted to
carry out its suggestions.

THE INTERNATIONAL QUESTION.

THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT V. ARMAN,
ERLANGER, AND CO.

The action for the recovery by the United States of
2,800,000 francs paid to Messrs. Arman, Erlanger,
and Company by Confederate agents for cruisers built
by them has progressed to the defence, which was
delivered by Maitre Lecan. The case promises to
be one of international interest, and the French
judges will in their decision laydown an important pre-
cedent. It is contended by the defence, as announced
in the Pall Mall Gazette, that the United States
have no right to claim money, which had never be
longed to the States' Treasury, from a third party :
and it is urged that M. Arman was justified in build-
ing the vessels he constructed for Capt. Bullock, as in
nowise thereby he infringed the laws of neutrality.
There was no international law prohibiting the
building of even ships of war, provided the builder
did not send them to sea. As long as the cruisers
built for the Confederates were lying in harbour
they were not contraband of war, and lit. Arman
never had any idea of delivering them to Captain
Bullock on the high seas. If Captain Bullock had
falsely represented to M. Arman that the vessels
he had ordered were intended for commerce, and
if Captain Bullock intended to violate the law,
that was no affair of M. Arman, but concerned the
French Government and the Confederate agent.
If Capt. Bullock could get his ships out of harbour so
much the better for him ; if the Government, made
aware of the real character of the vessels by Mr. Day-
ton, allowed them to slip through their fingers, so
much the worse for the Government. If M. Arman
had a right to build the cruisers in question he
had a right to be paid for them. Maitre Lecan
said that there had been no violation of neutrality,
that all publicists were of opinion that neutrality did
not mean a new state of affairs, but a continuation
of au existing state ; what neutral Powers had the
right to do before war they had a right to do during
war. Even commerce in contraband of war was
lawful if the contraband was neither transported
to, nor delivered in, a belligerent port. It was a
violation of neutrality to make use of a neutral flag
for the accomplishment of a hostile act, but com-
plete liberty of commerce existed for contraband of
war upon neutral territory. Vattel and other
authorities were quoted to show the diffe►ence of
active and passive commerce in articles contraband
of war, and also a Presidential Message issued at
the time of the Crimean war.

It will be remembered that of the six vessels
built for the Confederates, the Stonewall was the
only one which escaped the vigilance of the French
Government and the American Minister, and was
delivered to the Southerners. Maitre Lecan ex-
plained how this was effected, and exculpated that
most innocent of shipbuilders, M. Arman. When
the French Government refused to allow guns to
be placed on board bib made, Captiiii Bullock

d

The closing weeks of the Session are generally
unsatisfactory, but this year they are particularly
so, on account of the very short time that has been
given to the discussion of any question. The con-
sequence is that, after having spent many days in
considering some measure of importance, it has
often to be withdrawn after all, which is a most
vexatious conclusion to the time and trouble ex-
pended upon it. Not only is it annoying to those
whose labour is lost, but it has a bad appearance
to the country, and people are apt to say
that the House of Commons does nothing
else but talk, and very little results ensues
from its deliberations. Yesterday Mr. WYND-
HAM'S bill on the Mines had to be withdrawn, after
having occupied the time of the House on several
occasions. It was believed by many last week this
bill would escape the sweeping condemnation that
has overwhelmed so many measures of more or less
importance, but it has not proved so. Mr. AYRTON,
it will be remembered, had introduced a clause in
this bill which professed to abolish all the exemp-
tions that existed, but yesterday it was declared by
Sir R. COLLIER and the Solicitor-General that
the plan in question would not answer. fn com-
pliance with the advice he received from many
quarters, Mr. WYNDHAM withdrew the bill, and he
acted wisely in so doing, because he could not pos-
sibly have come to a successful conclusion after so
much controversy had been excited. Still there
can be no reason why something should not be
done in the direction indicated by this bill next
year, for we can see no cause why mines should
not be taxed as well as other property. The
Public Schools Bill has been read a third time
and passed, which is a good thing in its
way. A considerable time was spent in
the discussion of the Sale of Poisons and Pharmacy
Aat Amendment Bill. A great many amendments
were made in it especially concerning the com-
mon poisons used for domestic purposes. This is
a useful provision, and althought it may be incon-
venient in its working, it must conduce to the safety
of the public. It would be well if some other pro-
vision had been made to enforce those selling or
buying poisons, to keep all poisons in bottles of a
different description to those in ordinary use ; but
a good many difficulties seem in the way
of that. To-night the Metropolitan Fo-
reign Cattle Bill will be taken again,
and it seems that the opposition to this measure is
likely to be very virulent. The prejudice that
exists is quite absurd, and there is no reason why
a fair trial should not be given to the proposition

PRICES BASED ON READY -MONEY
SYSTEM.

1 'HE ADVAN FAGES of the READY-MONEY
I SYSTEM cannot be better expressed than in the following
extract from a leading article in the "Times:"—
_ _

" Everybody knows the difference between a credit and a
ready-money business. It is this partly which affords one tailor
the excuse for charging £7 7s. for a coat while another will
charge E 4 4s. . . It is true that every tradesman ought to
abate his charges to customers who pay him punctually. Still
we know how in this particular wa all suffer for a few delin-
quents."

LLM BOAT SERVICES.—During the Storms of
the past year the National Lifeboat Institution eon,-
ribnted to the saving of 1,086 lives from various ship-
wrecks and 36 vessels from destruction. The Institution
also expended £31,845 in the same period on its Lifeboat
Establishments, in addition to granting £3,189 for rewards.
The Committee of the Institution earnestly appeal to the
public for assistance to enable them to meet the continued
heavy demands on their 187 Lifeboat Establishments.
Contributions will be thankfully received by the London
and country bankers, and by the Secretary, Richard Lewis,
Esq., at the Institution, 14, John-street, Adelphi, London.

PATENT CISTERN FILTER, charged solely with animal
charcoal. The latest patented Filter in general use, and requir-
ing, when once fixed, no attention whatever. Patronised and
used by her Majesty the Queen at Osborne, by H.R.H. the Duke
of Cambridge, the elite of the Medical Profession, and at the
Fusilier Guards', Middlesex, St. George's, German, and London
Hospitals, and at the Regent's Park and Tower Barracks, and
numerous institutions, breweries, &c.
Professor Frankland, F.R.S., in his analysis of the waters for
December, 186.5, in the report to the Registrar-General, states,
"With regard to the filtration of this water (New River) through
animal charcoal, it will be observed that, although the total daily
lomestic supply of a house on Haverstock Hill has passed
through the same filter for seven months, the animal charcoal
still retains practically unimpaired its power of abstracting or-
ganic impurities."
*** The above Filter was supplied by this Company.
The Filters may be seen in operation, and full particulars ob-
tained on application to the Secretary, at the Offices,

REMARKS.

Barometrical readings are very uniform in amount : they are
slightly lower in the north, and higher in France than they wero
yesterday morning ; but since last night pressure has been increasing
at almost all of our stations, especially in the north. Temperature
has increased considerably in the east, and diminished again in the
west. The winds during the past twenty-four hours have been light
and variable, and continue so this morning. At western stations
they have veered, and are northerly in Ireland. Some rain has fallen
at the northern and western stations, and it is raining heavily at
Aberdeen this morning. Thunder has occurred at Paris and
London.

The formation of a new Ministry is the only news of
importance from Australia. After eight weeks of nego-
tiation, success crowned the efforts of the Governor. His
difficulties were not all overcome, for a determined oppo-
sition to four members of the Cabinet was to be made at
the Ministerial elections. The Age thought it probable
that these four would be rejected, but the Argus was of
opinion that the whole Cabinet would be re-elected. The
new Ministers were divided on the question of the Darling
grant, but their unanimity now matters little. Sir Charles
Darling has refused to accept the grant, either in his own
name or that of Lady Darling. The Times' correspondent
says the Opposition make no secret of their intention to
refuse supplies to the new Government, so that a speedy
termination of the dead-lock does not seem probable.

Prince Alexander Karageorgeviteh has, of course, not
responded to the citation of the Belgrade tribunal, com-
manding him to appear before it without delay. It is now
stated that the Hungarian Government will not give him
up to the Servian authorities. A telegram says that the
Servians arrested at Pesth will be tried there. This utterly
incomprehensible message does not state what will be
done with Prince Alexander. To try Servian subjects
at Pesth for a crime committed at Belgrade would be
certain to cause some difficulty ; but to try the
subordinates and allow Prince Alexander to escape without
even an inquiry would be an outrage to the Servian nation
such as the Austrian Government can hardly be guilty of.
The insurrection in Crete has relapsed into its normal
condition. The policy of both Cretans and Musaulmans is
such that the " war " may last for any length of time, and
apparently without causing great inconvenience to the
contending parties. The insurgents, it seems, fight
when necessary ; but they prefer s'mply to
hold out. As they obtain their provisions and
other supplies pretty regularly, they are enabled to sus-
tain this species of resistance. Tho Pose's correspondent
says the blockade is very badly kept up ; and is, indeed, a
great expense to no purpose. One Greek runner made
three trips in ono week, on the first occasion taking 200
men, then 150, and lastly 60 or 70, bringing away a like
number of women and sick. The Turkish fast vessels ate
used as transports, and the blockaders are ironolads, which

whether he considered that the habit of takiug the lowest

to g;ve the troops a sound, wholesitn3 beverage ; and
whether he htd thought it d•sirabla to asc,..rtaiu if at the

price accepted for last seasOu's supply it was
possible to
produce Leer calculated to tray.d eight thJusAu i miles :.)y

to be brewed of a certain. quality and strength. BAJra it
left this country it was examined,
and during the last

he had received no complaints as to the quality of the

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 12,. 1868.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY.

BO W-S MEET.

Mary Snelling, a girl about 16 years of age, was
placed at the bar, on remand, charged with con-
cealing the birth of her illegitimate child.
From the evidence it appeared that the body of a
newly-born infant was found by the dustmen in the
outhouse attached to the premises No. 10, Duke-
street, Bloomsbury. Information of the circum-
stance was given to the coroner's officer, Mr.
Blake, who at once set on foot an inquiry re-
lative to the matter. The occupier of the house,
Mr. Hill, was at first communicated with, who said
he knew nothing of the matter, and afterwards the
niece was asked if she cauld throw any light on the
matter. She said the prisoner, who generally c :me
to live with them when out of a situation, had been
unwell a short time ago, but that she had got
better, and was then in a situation in
Chancery-lane. Blake at once proceeded to
the direction given, and on seeing the prisoner
asked her whether she had been unwell at the house
No. 10, Duke-street. She said she had, and, from
other questions put to her, she admitted
that the whole of the suspicions of Blake
were quite true. She was at once taken
into custody, and, being in a very weak
state, she was taken to St. Giles's Workhouse,
where she was attended to by Dr. Bennett, and
having sufficiently recovered she was now for-
mally charged with the offence. The tnedical evi-
dence was not of a nature to justify the pressing of
a more serious charge against the prisoner.
The prisoner, who made no defence, was fully
committed for trial.
