generous forbearance of our supporters until our
work is matured.

What we need in a Catholic representative
paper, is a capacity of joining in the larger issues
raised by the intellectual strife and the war of
principles which are going on around, and which
reach down to the roots of social and moral life.
Such an intellectual capacity is only gained by
familiar and disciplined knowledge of Catholic
principles. A representative paper must concern
itself with both the lesser and the larger interests
of Catholicism. But whatever it touches or treats
of, great or small, must be done in perfect, and
thorough, and joyful submission to the infallible
authority of the Church. In defending Catholic
interests or proclaiming Catholic principles, there
must be no uncertainty or half-heartedness. Far
less in a paper which has a representative charac-
ter and is regarded as such by those outside the
Church, can there be permitted to papear those
singular contradictions which we sometimes see_in
our Catholic papers of the very first principles of
Catholic ethics. Whether we shall ever have such
a representative paper or not, depends on the will
and the energy of the Catholics of the United
Kingdom. But of this we are certain, that the need
of such a means of defence, of cordial intercommu-
nication, of greater unity of action and of thought,
was never so much needed as in these eventful
days, in which questions affecting the highest in-
terests of social, intellectual, and religious life,
are being continually brought to the test of public
discussion.— Westminster Gazette.

THE TRAGEDY IN FINSBURY.

Saturday Mr. John Humphreys, the Middlesex
coroner, opened an investigation at the White Hart
Tavern, Clifton-street, Finsbury, into the circum-
stances of the death of John Strangeways, aged 13
years, the facts of which will be found in another
column.

After hearing the evidence, the jury returned
the following verdict—" That the death of the de-
ceased was caused by hemorrhage, resulting from a
wound in the groin ; that the injury was inflicted
by his own hand, and was through misadventure."

THE FOREIGN COAL AND IRON TRADES.—There is
not much change to notice in the French iron trade,
although some orders necessitated by current require-
ments arrive at the works. MM. Perin, Gaudet, and
Co., are supplying 1,090 tons of steel rails to the Orleans
Railway Company at .£1.4 IGs. 103. por ton. A Ifayango
establishment is supplying 100 turntables, each 14ft. Bin.
in diameter, to the Orleans Railway Company at £lO
14s. Gd. per ton. We may also note that 56 tons of
cast-iron pipes are being supplied to the Northern
of France Railway at prices ranging from £6 16s. to
£8 14s. 4d. per ton. The contract for 25,000 tons of
rails for the Poti and Tiflis (Russian) Railway—to which
some reference was recently made—has been taken by
the Belgian Syndicate'of Forgomasters, but the terms have
not been suffered to transpire; they aro understood, how-
ever, to be low. The Chatclineau Company has also ob-
tained an order for 1,000 tons of rails on Russian account.
The arrival of a few orders for merchants' iron is also
noted at the Belgian works ; prices, it is complained, how-
ever, rule very low. The imports of English coal into
France in the first 11 months of 1867 amounted to
1,850,130 tons, as compared with 1,708,315 tons in the
corresp'onding period of 1866, and 1,442,682 tons in the
corresponding period of 180.

teAIAL EFFECTS OF IMPURE WATER.

A fortnight ego eight or nine men of the Plymouth
livision of Royal Marine Light InfAtry, stationed at
3tonehouse Barracks, died within a short interval of each
)ther from fever of a typhoid character. A circumstance
so unusual caused much anxiety, and a medical court of
inquiry was held, under the presidency of the acting
colonel-commandant, when five or six medical gentlemen
connected with the division and the military hospital
made an investigation concerning the outbreak. It was
ultimately found that the deceased men had been living in
the recently-erected wing of the barracks, the men in
which were supplied with water by a pump connected with
a large reservoir or well beneath a portion of the barrack 7
yard, which reservoir was formerly used for the purposes
.)f a brewery standing on the site now occupied by
the barracks. This water has been highly prized as
tieing beautifully sparkling and pleasant to the taste, so
iuucb so, that it was supplied on special occasions to the
tables of the officers' mess. The court of inquirn.how-
ever, came to the conclusion that this water contained
organic matter anti gases detrimental to health, and
jrdered that thopump in question should not for the future
be • used. This order has been in force for nearly a fort-
night, and it is satisfactory to note that there has not been
since that date a single case of typhoid fever in the bar-
racks. Meanwhile some of the water from the well which
is supposed to have caused the mischief has been sent to
I.n eminent analyst. A theory may be suggested to ac-
count for the presence of organic matter in any deep well
in that part of Stonehouse. It is u fact better known
to the past than to the present generation, that beneath
a large portion of the township a vast cave or caves
exist in the limestone rock. These caves have often
been explored for hundreds of yards from various direc-
tions, and records of some of these explorations are con-
tained in the numbers of the European Magazine pub-
lished at the close of the last century. One of the notable
features of these recesses were two or three wells of pro-
digious depth, and of admirable water. For the past fifty
years the entrances have been closed, but when houses
were first erected'in Stonehouse some of the builders com-
pensated for the absence of any system of sewers by
making openings into and draining into these subterranean
chasms, and we beieve that to this day some houses in
that manner dispose of their sewage. It is easy to sur-
mise that the accumulated sewage of generations may
have percolated through the limestone into any well bored
in the self-same rock.— Western Morning News.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

Her Majesty's troopship Orontes, Capt. Henry
Phelps, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday morning
from Malta, sailing thence on the 3d inst. She has
brought home Col. Romer, R.A., Lieut. Jerrard,
2d battalion Bth Regiment of infantry; 59 invalided
soldiers, and 37 time-expired soldiers from various
regiments serving in the Mediterranean, and a
number of naval invalids. She anchored at Spithead
yesterday, and steamed into Portsmouth harbour
this morning and landed the troops at the dock-
yard.
The Ranger, 5, screw gun vessel, Commander W.
A. Cambier, just arrived in England from the
coast of Africa, went into Portsmouth harbour from
Spithead on Saturday, to take in a supply of coal,
and afterwards sailed for the Nore to dismantle and
pay out of commission at Sheerness.
We regret to learn that Commander Charles G-.
Nelson, now commanding the Castor, Royal Naval
Reserve Drill ship at North Shields, who commis-
sioned the Ranger and commanded her through the
first part of her service on the West Coast of Africa;-
until invalided home, after successive and persistent
attacks.of coast fever, is still suffering very much
iu health from the effects of his old sickness caught
in the Ranger.
The iron armour-plated screw steam ship De-
fence, 18, at Devonport, is ordered to be put in
commission to-day. She is of 3,720 tons burden,
and has engines of 600 horse power. Her present
naval lieutenant is Mr. John S. Compton, and chief
engineer Mr. P. Wood, both borne on the books of
the Indus.
The paddle wheel steam vessel Vivid, Staff Com-
mander Sullivan, which left Plymouth some time
since on special duty, returned to the Sound on
Thursday and left for Woolwich on Saturday.
The two men belonging to the receiving ship
Canopus placed under arrest on Thursday on board
the flagship Royal Adelaide in Hamoaze on a charge
of Feuianism are called Allen and Anderson, but as
Allen alleges that for self protection only he pre-
tended to join the movement he has been released.
According to his statement it was intended to blow
up the magazine of the Canopus on Saturday night,
but for what object is not clear.
It is not often in the depth of the winter that the
strength of the Aldershot division is much affected
by exchanges of station or orders of removal, but
the present season is an exception. For some time
past several regiments have been expecting a sud-
den route, and the 44th, 56th, and 68th are now
under orders to leave the camp. The 44th and 56th
will proceed to Ireland, and the 68th to Manchester.
The 56th will be replaced by the 51st from D 6
a portion of which has already arrived
camp ; the 68th will be replaced by the 98th, from
Portsmouth, and the 44th most probably by the 2d
Battalion 7th Fusiliers, from Bury. Owing to the
frosty weather no field movements have taken place
at Aldershot lately, but on Friday the Ist and 2d
Infantry Brigades marched out a short distance by
various routes.

THE SUN, LONDON, IVIONDAY EVENING;

generous forbearance of our supporters until our
work is matured.

What we need in a Catholic representative
paper, is a capacity of joining in the larger issues
raised by the intellectual strife and the war of
principles which are going on around, and which
reach down to the roots of social and moral life.
Such an intellectual capacity is only gained by
familiar and disciplined knowledge of Catholic
principles. A representative paper must concern
itself with both the lesser and the larger interests
of Catholicism. But whatever it touches or treats
of, great or small, must be done in perfect, and
thorough, and joyful submission to the infallible
authority of the Church. In defending Catholic
interests or proclaiming Catholic principles, there
must be no uncertainty or half-heartedness. Far
less in a paper which has a representative charac-
ter and is regarded as such by those outside the
Church, can there be permitted to papear those
singular contradictions which we sometimes see in
our Catholic papers of the very first principles of
Catholic ethics. Whether we shall ever have such
a representative paper or not, depends on the will
and the energy of the Catholics of the United
Kingdom. But of this we are certain, that the need
of such a means of defence, of cordial intercommu-
nication, of greater unity of action and of thought,
was never so much needed as in these eventful
days, in which questions affecting the highest in-
terests of social, intellectual, and religious life,
are being continually brought to the test of public
discussion.— Westminster Gazette.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

Her Majesty,'s troopship Orontes, Capt. Henry
Phelps, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday morning
from Malta, sailing thence on the 3d inst. She has
brought home Col. Romer, R.A., Lieut. Jerrard,
2d battalion Bth Regiment of infantry ; 59 invalided
soldiers, and 37 time-expired soldiers from various
regiments serving in the Mediterranean, and a
number of naval invalids. She anchored at Spithead
yesterday, and steamed into Portsmouth harbour
this morning and lauded the troops at the dock-
yard.
The Ranger, 5, screw gun vessel, Commander W.
A. Cambier, just arrived in England from the
coast of Africa, went into Portsmouth harbour from
Spithead on Saturday, to take in a supply of coal,
and afterwards sailed for the Nore to dismantle and
pay out of commission at Sheerness.
We regret to learn that Commander Charles G.
Nelson, now commanding the Castor, Royal Naval
Reserve Drill ship at North Shields, who commis-
sioned the Ranger and commanded her through the
first part of her service on the West Coast of Africa
until invalided home, after successive and persistent
attacks of coast fever, is still suffering very much
in health from the effects of his old sickness caught
in the Ranger.
The iron armour-plated screw steam ship De-
fence, 18, at Devonport, is ordered to be put in
commission to-day. She is of 3,720 tons burden,
and has engines of 600 horse power. Her present
naval lieutenant is Mr. Compton, and chief
engineer Mr. P. Wood, both borne on the books of
the Indus.
The paddle wheel steam vessel Vivid, Staff Com-
mander Sullivan, which left Plymouth some time
since on special duty, returned to the Sound on
Thursday and left for Woolwich on Saturday.
The two men belonging to the receiving ship
Canopus placed under arrest on Thursday on board
the filgship Royal Adelaide in Hamoaze on a charge
of Fenianisin arc called Allen and Anderson, but as
Allen alleges that for self protection only he pre-
tended to join the movement he has been released.
According to his statement it was intended to blow
up the magazine of the Canopus on Saturday night,
but for what object is not clear.
It is not often in the depth of the winter that the
strength of the Aldershot division is much affected

STATESMEN.

The Pall Mall Gazette, being unsparing in its
Driticism upon others, is of course severely treated
when it is found tripping. In a recent article, the
tea,ding Liberal members of the House of Commons
who were candidates for place were set down as good
clerks, but indifferent statesmen. For true states-
men we must look to the peers. Amongst them our
contemporary mentioned Lord Granville, the Duke
of Argyll, Lords Clarendon, Salisbury, . Cairns,
Westbury, and Grey. The Spectator objects to
some of these names as unsuitable for a Liberal
Cabinet. It objects to Lords Salisbury and Cairns
because they are Tories. Lord Grey is bitter against
Mr. Gladstone, and never could act cordially with
anyone. Lord Westbury never skewed a ray of
political genius, though he is a great lawyer, and
Lord Clarendon has made plenty of mistakes as
Foreign Minister. We may add that there has never
been any love lost, it is supposed, between Mr. Glad-
stone and Lord Westbury. Mr. Gladstone always
had a respect for things ecclesiastical; Lord West-
bury never loses an opportunity of sneering at them,
and upon one occasion drew upon himself the denun-
liations of the Bishop of Oxford.

A LONDON MYSTERY.

The Middlesex coroner has been holding an inquest
on the body of a man found in the Thames. The
evidence shewed a probability that the man had been
murdered. The deceased was found lying at the
bottom of Battlebridge stairs, Tooley-street, with
his clothes wet. This was early on the Friday morn-
ing. The night before, his proceedings had been
noticed by the police, and he appeared to be wander-
ing about in the public-houses drinking. The
last seen of him was about midnight, when
he was speaking to a young woman. It appears
that the deceased wore jewellery, and among other
things a gold chain. This was gone when his body
was found. lie was watched by several policemen,
who saw him followed by some orange girls, with
whom he afterwards entered a public-house. The
man was cautioned against his company, but it seems
the caution did not save him, and in the early morn-
ing he was found dead. The proceedings have been
adjourned, to give the police an opportunity of find-
ing the girls. London is infested by these sharks,
most of them generally well known to the police
and the publicans, and permitted to prey nnon the
unwary.
