occurred since yesterday. It has been greatest in the north, but
readings In the South of France still continue lower than elsewhere. Temperature has increased in the north and east : it is high fn Scot-

and west are light and variable, whilst on our east and south coasts,
and in France, fresh north-east winds still prevail. Weather is
generally fine, but cloudy in the south-east. A thunderstorm is re-

Y_ ER MAJESTY'S OPERA.

The retirement of Dr. JELF from the position
which he has held with sl much honour for nearly
a quarter of a century is an event of no small in-
terest in professional and scholastic circles. The
Principal of King's College fills no insignificant
post, and as the importance of an efficient admini-
stration of our public schools and colleges becomes
more and more widely
recognised, the advantage of
possessing an able and respected head of so valuable
an institution grows more apparent. The high
esteem which Dr. JELF has gained by
his efficient discharge of his arduous duties
has been abundantly shown by the universal
expression of regret at his retirement, and by the
crowd of distinguished men who hastened to do him
honour. lAst evening a banquet was given by the
council of the college to the retiring Principal,
which was attended by men who have gained cele-
brity in various pursuits of life, but who all look ,

ADDRESSES BELOW.

11 Tr. monthly letter to the Times on the weather
does not give the past month so high a temperature as
might have been anticipated from the accounts which
were received from all quarters. It has been stated
that the thermometer reached 95 deg., but Mr. klinatt
chews how absurd was this assertion. Four years
ago, on the 15th and 16th of June, 1864, the tempe-
rature at Madras rose to 114 deg., but it was even in
the tropics an unwonted event, and the season was
lamentably fatal to organic life. With our humid and
dense insular atmosphere anything approaching 100 deg.
would be almost unbearable. Last year, on the sth May,
the thermometer rose in the Channel Islands to 90 deg.,
but so oppressive was the heat that several of the resi-
dents at St. Heliers were attacked with syncope and half
suffocated. These are recorded physical facts. No such
effects were produced by the heat of the month which has
just expired. The truth is that the maximum temperature
was onlyBl deg., and the average of the month about 59 deg.
‘,l-,13,- four above the estimated average. The rainfall was,
of course, exceedingly scanty, barely gauging half an inch.
The air was very dry. In consequence of the lack of
moisture, crops are languishing, and cattle in various parts
of the country are dying of thirst. The highest observed
sun-force was on the 16th, when it attained at noon 144 deg.
On the following day the shade heat rose at four p.m. to
the maximum of the month, and registered Si deg.
Mr. Frank Buckland rejoices greatly. There have been
falls of oyster spat in the rivers Crouch, Essex, and the
Roach. In the Crouch there have been found as many as
100 oysters adhering to the shell, and in the Roach 14
have been noticed. At Reculvers, near Herne Bay—a
fishery founded partly under Mr. Buckland—as many as
125 have been counted, and the system pursued has
succeeded admirably. Mr. Buckland's joy is all the
greater because be has so long been steadfast in main-
taining that " over dredging " is not the entire
cause of the failure, but that oysters have been scarce
because the young ones, when in a floating state, have
been destroyed either by the water being too cold or too
boisterous. He has maintained that to enable these young
oysters to live the two great essentials are "heat and
tranquillity." The present fall of spat has taken place
under these conditions, and the Inspector of Fisheries
hopes that in a few years we shall have again what we
begin to look upon as belonging to the past—cheap
oysters.
According to present appearances the coming elections
in the sister isle will cause more excitement than has been
witnessed for many years. From all parts of Ireland
come rumours of expected contests, and the war-whoop
has already been raised by the press on both sides. The
Times correspondent says that if the struggle be not fierce
and relentless it will not be owing to the pacific 'influence
f the press. The Dublin Post declares that "no abuse
of power will pass without, it is likely, its penalty this

was nominated. But the constitutional burghers, who had
no chance against Kossuth, vigorously opposed the
" unknown," and a sort of riot occurred which required
the consideration of the military. The election, it seems,
did not come off. The Times correspondent says that
drink plays a considerable part at these elections, and as
the suffrage is low they are characterised at times by
"animation." Lest this should be taken as a presage of
what we may expect in England, it must not be forgotten
that in most of the country elections the masses are
divided ; and the principle of different industrial districts
supporting a different line of politics does not seem to
prevail.

A committee of the Italian Chamber has published a
report respecting the increase of the allowance to the line
of mail-boats plying between Brindisi and Alexandria.
The report, however, investigates other matters, particu-
larly the question of Marseilles v. Brindisi for the
transport of the mails. It attributes the preference
for the former port to the influence of the Peninsular
and Oriental Company, and the manner in which the
Italian post is delayed on its passage through Italy.
There can be no question that every expedient is em-

back with affectionate interest to the recollection of
their early days of study. The Dean of Westmins-
ter, the Master of the Temple, Sir W. FERGUSSON,
Dr. FARRE, Mr. PLUMPTRE, and a whole host of
Professors, were gathered round the board, and the
first to make a speech was Mr. GLADSTONE. Dr BARR
who has accepted the vacant post, was unfortunately
prevented from being present by a sudden domestic
affliction, but while all regretted his absence, con-
fident hopes were expressed of his future success.
Dr. JELF, who was most warmly received, expressed
his sense of the kindness shown him, and altogether
the festivities of the evening were a brilliant
success.

ployed, especially that of retarding the passage of letters,
to retain Marseilles as the port of shipment for the
Indian mails. The committee, however, acknowledges
that the facilities afforded by Italy for mail transport
rid Brindisi are not calculated to inspire confidenc©, and
recommends an improved railway and steam service,
advising strongly the acceleration of the pace between
Susa and Brindisi.

A despatch from Sir Robert Napier, relative to Arr.
Dalton, has been sent to his father by the India Office.
The despatch states that Mr. Dufton disregarded the
stringent orders in force against anyone marching with-
out an escort. Sir Robert Napier highly praises the
character of the murdered man.

All that concerns the Atlantic Cable is of interest,
and the public will look with interest on the pro-
ceedings that took place at Willis's Rooms last
evening. A banquet was given in honour of Mr.
CYRUS FIELD as an acknowledgment of the emi-
nent services he has rendered to the New and Old
Worlds by his devotion to the interests of Atlantic
telegraphy through circumstances of protracted dif-
ficulty and doubt. The Duke of ARGYLL presided,
and a numerous and influential company assembled.
In the course of the evening messages were sent to
America through the Cable, and the answers were
read by the Chairman as they arrived, which,
of course, enhanced the interest and in-
creased the importance of the entertainment.
The Duke of ARGYLL sent a Message to the PRE-
SIDENT of the United States, and it was a very
effective one. In answer, it was intimated that
the dinner hour had not yet arrived, the sun be-
ing two hours high, and it was only five o'clock,
but that the PRESIDENT cordially received the
news forwarded to him, and wished for perfect
accord to take place between the two nations.
The coupling of the armies and navies of Eng-
land and America was looked upon by Sir JOHN
PAKINGTON as an emblem of the good understand-
ing that prevailed, and the hopes that were
founded upon it. Both of the armies had of late
given to the world signal proofs of their skill and
prowess. In proposing the toast of the evening the
Chairman made some appropriate remarks, which
were well received, and it was most interesting to
trace the struggles which Mr. FIELD went through
in order to accomplish the great scheme he had at
heart. So confident was he of success that he risked
every farthing of his own private fortune in order
to compass the desired end. The Duke of ARGYLL
said that it was a consolation to know that while
America claimed Mr. FIELD'S labours as her part
of the share of the work, yet that it had been
well seconded by English capitalists. In fact, it
may be said that the energy and enterprise
which distinguished the whole affair were charac-
teristic of the Anglo-Saxon race, and showed as
much as anything could the many points in common
between England and America. Mr. FIELD made
an interesting reply, and touched briefly but effec-
tively upon the many difficulties that hedged
round the path of the promoters of the scheme.
The best proof of the complete success of the work
was attested by the fact that " two cables were in
perfect working order across the most stormy
ocean, a distance of nearly two thousand miles, and
that messages were, passing with lightning speed
from Continent to Continent." Ile paid a tribute to
the works of departed heroes of telegraphy. Mr.
FIELD is not at all inclined to rest from his
labours, and he bade the company remember that
the future lay before them with its vast arena o:
work and its boundless openings for enterprise
Ile asked them to remembar that India, Australia,
China, Japan, South America, and the isles of the

The Times correspondent, who still continues his letters,
strongly recommends the formation of a permanent Land
Transport Corps in India. The 4,332 mules and ponies
Which will ere this have reached Bombay would form a
minims for such a corps. Besides, the Government has
now at itz disposal a body of trained officers, some of
them first-rate men, and subordinates-- all fresh from their
work. The Abyssinian campaign has afforded much in-
formation that ought to be reduced from theory to
practice.

The trophies brought from Abyssinia, and now publicly
(Splayed in the South Kensington Museum, are a source
of disappointment to the visitor after the magnificent
spoils we have from time to time brought from the East.
The Daily News is of opinion that the exhibition is a farce.
The things shewn are well enough as trophies taken from a
barbarous enemy, but it is an error in judgment to suppose
they are worth a special pilgrimage to South Kensington
to see. The word " treasure" has an imposing sound, and
suggests Oriental magnificence and barbaric splendour.
It would also be appropriate to the cellars of the Bank of
England or the raw material of the Mint. The articles
are all contained in a glass case of the size and shape of a
large much and Judy show. This stands in the
centre of the north room of the museum, and
during Wednesday some hundreds of persons tes-
tified their disappointment at the meagre display. It
was obvious that the late King Theodore fell rapidly in
the estimation of those present when the extent and
character of the treasures captured from him were under-
stood. The so-called " treasures " recall the beads and
shells of a more artless savage than the barbarian with
whom we have waged war. They give, however, a curious
insight into the sort of state kept up by Theodore, and
spew, almost painfully, its hollowness and pretence. The
Standard says the collection makes but a poor show, and
the intrinsic value of the articles is considered to be very
small. The British public will not regard them for their in-
trinsic value, butas the trophies of the endurance, pluck, and
perseverance of our army in the most toilsome and diffi-
cult campaign ever undertaken. The articles exhibited
are lent by her Majesty, but there are others which were
obtained by Mr. Holmes for the British Museum, and
which have yet to be displayed. Among them is the royal
shield, some silver chalices, &C.

time ; and the penalty, when exacted, will be a round
one. The best service, in fact, that the people could
render to the landlords as well as to themselves at the
coming election would be to take an attitude so firm at
once, and so imposing, as to make the exercise of landlord
power, whether for the purpose of intimidation in the first
instance or of punishment subsequently, an adventure too
manifestly hazardous to be tried by men of ordinary pru-
dence." It is questionable whether such stimulants as
these are necessary to arouse public spirit in some of the
counties. The disgraceful scenes enacted at the Tipperary
and Waterford elections are not yet forgotten► and it is
the duty of the press to calm, not foster, the agitation
which will naturally arise during the forthcoming con-
tests.

A correspondent of the Daily News complains that
Oxfordshire runs great risk of being lost to the Liberals
for want of systematic and immediate attention to its
registration.; He states. that hundreds of Liberal free-
holders are unregistered, and that the registration of the
£l2 occupiers is left in many parishes at the mercy of
Tory overseers, guided by Tory landlords and Tory
agents. The Conservatives are perfectly organised,
whilst the Liberals, helpless for want of a candidate,
are losing votes irretrievably by every hour's inaction..
The remedy is declared to be very simple. The corre-
spondent suggests that men should go through every parish
and get the addresses and qualifications of all Liberals
entitled to be registered ; and that the superintending
solicitor should go the whole circuit of the eounty's revision
courts, and uphold the Liberal and oppose the Tory
laims. Oxfordshire is not alone in this want of polities&
action, but when it is remembered that the lists are to he
made out by the 22nd of this mouth it will be seen that
there is no time to be thrown away.

The Tin2CA, in a recent article on the dispute between
Messrs. Barry and Street concerning the new law courts,
expressed the opinion that the competitors having been
paid for their labour, the Government was not bound to
select either of them. This, however, appears to have
been a misapprehension. Mr. Gilbert Scott, one of the
original competitors, in a letter to the leading journal,
points out that the Treasury, previous to the competition,
agreed to the stipulation that the one who best acquitted
himselt should be appointed architect to the building. It
was also well understood that the successful competitor
would be called upon to alter his plan, perhaps by using
in some respects the plan of his less successful brother.
The architects themselves, before entering into the corn.
petition, wrote : " It is unreasonable to suppose that any
one of the designs submitted will be actually adopted. Such
is never the case, either with or without competition, as
the designs actually adopted aro, or ought to be, not the
result of a single impulse, but of the united and studious
labours of the architect with his employers, and with the
help, in such a case as this, of those practically conver.
sant with the actual working of every department and
with every practical detail," Examined in the light of
this letter, the award of the Government can hardly be
questioned, They have, as Mr, Barry says, appointed
Mr. Street " for what he may yet do," because (as Mr,
Barry does not say) what Mr, Street has already done

Mr. M. D. Hill, the Recorder of Bristol, writes an
interesting letter to the Times explaining his system of
repressing vagrancy and crime. His proposal is, that when
a person having been previously convicted of crime is
proved to the satisfaction of a jury to be without reason-
able means of subsistence, he shall be adjudged a reputed.
thief, and put under high recognisances to be of good
behaviour for some limited period. Such a law, he thinks,
though it would not altogether suppress the thief and the
rogue, would do a great deal towards that end, The
present system is deplorably bad. Efforts have been made,
it is true, to reform our criminals while in prison at home,
but for many years these efforts were ill-directed, and our
prison gates opened daily to discharge prisoners in a state
worse than that in which they entered. They return at once
to a life of crime, resolved to use their former experience,
and the lessons which they had learnt from their fellow
prisoners, to multiply their depredations. And even
now, when it is accepted in theory that no convicted
offender should be set at liberty until there is good reason
to believe he is reformed, the practice is to snake impdao4,
nient so short that an attempt to use it for purposes of
reformation would be simply absurd, and offenders who
come to the bar with a long list of prior convictions against
their names are often set at.large in a few months, or even
weeks, gr. 14 I enamivates this system " i41.147en
