A MUSICIAN'S DESCENDANTS

It will be remembered that the woman :Bishop,
who was sent to prison the other day for fraud,
proved, to the astonishment of the public, to be the
daughter-in-law of the late Sir Henry Bishop. An
appeal was instantly made for charity on behttlf of
her children, and this has met with a ready response.
Subscriptions to the amount of £l7 were received at
the commencement of the week by Mr. W. Francis,
deputy clerk of the peace, at the Sessions House,
Clerkenwell, and that gentleman makes a further
appeal for a moderate sum to place the girls in a fair
way of providing for themselves. An offer has already
been made of a musical performance, and as the pro-
fessors of music are ever ready with their help to
each other, it is to be hoped that its chief ornaments
may assist. Meanwhile, the appeal should fairly
catch all those who have derived pleasure from the
works of such a true musician as the composer of
" Guy Mannering." Artists surely have a claim on
their posterity as long as their works live.

THE INCREASE OF SCARLATINA.

The increase of scarlatina in the metropolis and
some of the other large towns is causing some
anxiety. The disease is not confined to the slums
and back streets, but has most unceremoniously
entered the well-aired rooms of the upper classes.
Dr. Matthew Corner, the medical. officer of health
for Mile-end Old Town, writing to the Times,
gives his idea of the reason for this. He
says the disease is very often taken at public
schools. " During the past week," he says, " I have
investigated the circumstances of twelve fatal cases
of scarlatina, taken indiscriminately from the returns
of the Registrar-General, and all were easily and
clearly traced to have become infected, directly or
indirectly, at some public or private school. The
cause of this danger consists in allowing
children to return to school before the relics
of the disease and consequent power of infection
are completely removed; this condition probably
remains longer in scarlatina than any other disease of
the same class." Another reason, however, for it is
to be found in the remnant of old drains, which are
still to be found in many of our houses. In one case
two families, occupying at different times the same
house, were constantly affected by scarlatina and
similar diseases. By Dr. Corner's advice, the
foundation of the house was examined, and an old,
defective, and obstructed brick drain was discovered
communicating with tho privy, and running imme•
diately under the floor of the house, the surrounding
earth being saturated with the stagnant contents of
the drain. This evil at least may be easily and
readily remedied.

LORD DERBY.

Whatever opinions the nation at large may have
of Lord Derby's political convictions, he has its whole
sympathy when he is attacked by his dreadful enemy,
the gout. The picture of the chivalrous earl debating
in the House of Lords while undergoing great physi-
cal pain was a noble but distressing one. In private
life it is to be hoped that his energy may defy
the disease for many years. He has partly
recovered from his late attack, and, although
the visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales to
Knowsley is said to be indefinitely postponed, in con-
sequence of the earl's delicate health, everyone will
be glad to hear of it when it takes place.

'TURN RIM OUT."

Here is an almost incredible tale. We give it on
the authority of a Conservative journal which would
hardly be likely to exaggerate the facts. A meeting
of the supporters of Messrs. Newdegate and Bromley
has been held at Rugby. Dr. Temple, the head
master of the school, sought to ascend the platform.
his opponents, knowing full well that it would be
useless to measure swords with him in argument, hit
upon thebrilliant idea of bundling him out of the room.
His ejection was, shame to say, accomplished by
people who are described, like so many of the police-
court ruffians, as " respectably dressed." The rev.
doctor will now understand the force of Lytton's
objection to a well-dressed mob. Mr. Newdegate
used his influence, and the doctor was allowed to
return, but not to speak. A Liberal contemporary
describes the roughs as farmers, and states that the
Hon. Charles Lennox Butler bawled in the doctor's
ear that his presence there was worse than a mistaki
—it was a crime.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—This Day,

(Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.)
THE CASE OF MADAME RACHEL.
Mr. Gibbon said he had to ask his lordship to
make an order to make up the record of the trial
according to the facts of the case. The Attorney-
General's fiat had been obtained, and the record
had been drawn up, but it was desirable
that it should be made up according to
fact. He did not think there would be any diffi-
culty in the case.
Mr. Commissioner Kerr did not see any objection.
The clerk of the arraigns would do so.
Mr. Avery said he should be quite prepared to do
so directly, but the only difficulty was what was
wanted.

Mr. Gibbon said all he required was the names
of the judicial persons present at each day of the
. ,

Mr. Avery said the general rule in similar cases
was to put down that the trials took place before
the whole of the parties. He was quite pre-
pared to do that, but it was in this instance re-
quired that the names of the persons on the
bench, when the trial actually took place, should be
inserted.

Mr. Gibbon said he only wanted to have it
clearly set forth how the Court was constituted on
each day of the trial.

Mr. Avery said he would do that, but he thought
,be words "other justices" ought to appear.
Mr. Gibbons again objected to that.

Mr. Avery said he would so state the matter of
the chief contention, viz., whether your brdship
had power to try the case.
Mr. Gibbon again objected to chief contention
being stated.

After some further discussion it was arranged
that the record should be drawn up so as to show
the constitution of the Court on each day of the
trial.

George Stark, of Nashua, New Hampshire, has in
his artificial pond at least five hundred trout which will
weigh from one-half to two-and-a-half pounds each. Of
ten thousand eggs deposited last March, only one thousand
failed to hatch.

LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER.

The commander of the main line (Beckenham
to Dover) shareholders in this company, Messrs. G.
Allender, W. Hartridge, and J. Turner, have
just issued a second report, in which they give
an account of their operations since February
1867, including unsuccessful endeavours to prevent
the passing of the London, Chatham, and Dover
Railway Arrangement Act, 1867, under which they
state that the Board thereby constituted are at
liberty to pledge the whole income of the main line
for the benefit of the metropolitan undertakings.
The Parliamentary contest in which they were en-
gaged last session has entirely exhausted the means
placed under the control of the committee, and the
Chancery proceedings instituted by them against
the former directors of the company have in conse-
quence remained in abeyance. They propose,
therefore, for the present to continue associated for
the purpose of acting as occasion may demand, and
should the shareholders again place them in funds
they will resume the proceedings in Chancery
against the directors, which have been suspended
owing to the Parliamentary proceedings referred to
and the heavy outlay occasioned thereby.

CALEDONIAN.

The accountants to the committee of inquiry, in
reply to the observations of the auditors of this
company, state that they entirely dissent from the
statement of -the auditors " that almost the whole
of the items comprised in the total of the deduc-
tions, £219,114, arise upon the question of the pro-
per apportionment to revenue and capital of the
expenditure incurred in additions to the line, works
and rolling stock, and the cost of extra substantial
improvements." The accountants to the committee
state that the only items in their deductions of this
nature for the two years under review were the fol-
lowing :—£7,026 for extra cost of steel over iron
rails, &c. ; £21,632 for difference in cost of renewal
of wood and other bridges with stone or iron ;
£3,350 difference in the cost of steel and iron
tires, &e., used in renewing rolling stock ;
£6,584 interest on unproductive capital, and
£4,508 for fish-plating old lines ; together,
£43,100. The remaining items are all ordinary re-
venue charges, and amount to £176,014. As regards
the first four of the above items, amounting to
£38,592, the accountants state that the principle of
the Caledonian itself up to July, 1865, was to
charge the whole to revenue, and it was not until
1866 that this principle was departed from, and
capital was then and subsequently charged not only
with the extra cost of renewals over former outlay,
but, in case of renewal of bridges, with the whole
cost. The remaining items of their deductions,
amounting to £176,014, are, as already stated by
the accountants, not within the debateable ground
of what may or may not be properly charged to
capital. They add that they have carefully read
and considered the " observations" of both the di-
rectors and auditors of the Caledonian Company,
but are not thereby induced to alter the conclusions
arrived at in their report to the committee of in-
quiry. They also mention that the entire, cost of
renewing rolling stock, including steel tires and
axles, and increase of power and capacity, has been
charged to revenue by the Midland Railway Com-
pany, who, since June, 1861, also charged to re-
venue the extra weight of material used in relaying
and fishplating, and that no charge has been made
by them to capital for additional cost of steel over
iron

NIAGARA WEARING OUT.

Since the discovery of Niagara by civilised man,
the great cataract has changed little in appearance,
and although the waters have been constantly at
work wearing away the shelf of the rock, the rate
of progress is scarcely perceptible in a lifetime.
There are now appearances, however, that indicate
a sudden and entire change of the form of the
Canadian Falls, liable to occur at any time, and in
a manner that would be likely to dimish, if not en-
tirely divert, the stream at present passing over the
precipice on the American side of Goat Island.
Within the past two years a peculiar motion of the
rapids at a point about 800 yards above the curve in
the Falls, over which the greatest body of water
descends, has attracted the attention of careful ob-
servers, and given rise to the belief that the current
has made a breach through the soft shale stratum
underlying the limestone edge over which the main
body descends. This shale stratum is noticed
under Table Rock, and in the banks of the river on
either side below the Dills, and ascends towards
the south at a grade that would reach the bed
of the river about 800 yards above the Cana-
dian Falls. The theory described .has resolved
itself into an undoubted fact within a few weeks
past. Within that time Dr. J. N. Osborne, at
Chippewa, has noted a marked change in the mo-
tion of the rapids at the point indicated, and it is
also reported that indications are discovered of the
pouring of a subterranean stream into the gulf
bele iv the Falls, which the absence of the mist,
it is thought, would reveal beyond a doubt. The
ultimate result of this action of the water must be
to cause a sudden receding of the Falls at some time
to the point where the limestone strata terminate,
and a complete change in the appearance of the
cataract. A gentleman from the vicinity of the
Falls, of whom we obtain these particulars, fully
believes that the days of the great " Horsehoe" are
numbered.—Hamilton Times.

MU. MURPHY AT ROME.

.at the Ashton-under-Lyne Borough COurt, on Thurs-
day, Thomas Jackson, landlord of the Theatre and Con-
cert Wavern in that town, was charged with keeping his
house open on the morning of the 22nd inst. withoUt having
a special license. The defendant was also charged with
harbouring two of the borough police force on the same
morning. Sergeant Holland said that on the night of the
21st inst. he was not able to meet with Constables Ash-
worth and Clarkson on their beat— At ten minutes past
two in the morning, whilst under a window of the
defendant's house, he heard the voices of the constables.
Through the keyhole he saw the defendant's wife go with
a tray and glasses into the parlour, where the constables
were. Witness could hear distinctly all that went on in
the room. Bets were offered of ss. as to who could shoot
through the hat of a person they oalled Murphy. Witness
heard three shots fired. He knew the voices of the con-
stables and the voice of Mr. Murphy, whom he had
talked with and heard lecture. He was talking amongst
the others, but witness could not tell what he said. On wit-
ness knocking at the door Mrs. Jackson let the constables
out. When witness got into the room he there found Murphy,
who is a lodger in the house. There were with him his
assistant and Constable Eagan, who was not on duty.
There was also a man named Knott, connected with the
mill at Newton Moor, and a woman named Jane Chap-
man. Murphy had a glass of spirits before him, and he
asked witness to drink. The defendant's wife said they
all came in together. There was a revolver lying on the
table. The defendant's plea was that all the drink
had been ordered by Murphy, but not paid for that
night. The defendant also stated that the constables
came into the house and asked to look at Murphy, and
when they got into the room Murphy asked them to have
a glass.—Ashworth, one of the constables, stated that they
had whisky, which Mr. Murphy paid for. Murphy and
Knott shot, but only for sport. Murphy refused to bet.
The revolver was loaded, and witness saw marks made on
the wall.—The defendant was fined £1 on the first charge,
and 10s. on the second charge.—Murphy has announced
that he will hold a meeting in favour of the suspended con-
stables, and he has made some strong remarks on the case.

It has been determined to erect a memorial
church in honour of the late Dr. John Lonsdale, Bishop of
Lichfield, in the town of Derby, which forms part of the
diocese over which he so long presided.

ER MAJESTY.

OSBORNE, Jan. 30.

The Queen drove out yesterday afternoon, ac-
companied by Princess Christian and Princess
Louise.

Her Majesty walked in the grounds this morn-
ing, accompanied by Princess Louise.

Since Monday last Prince Leopold has been con-
fined to his room by severe indisposition. His
Royal Highness is better to-day, and is progressing
very satisfactorily.
