THE CASE OF MADAME RACHEL.

OnTuesday afternoon, at the Marlborough-street Police-
court, Madame Rachel, who has been before Mr. Knox on
several occasions, charged with obtaining a large sum of
money from Mrs, Borradaile, a widow, under false pre-
tences, appeared, attended by Mr. Roberts, as her soli-
citor, prior to being committed for trial.
Mr. Montagu Williams, barrister, attended to conduct
the prosecution as before.

Mr. Roberts said that he had been asked by the husband
of Madame Rachel to conduct her defence, and he appre-
hended that the only question for the magistrate to decide,
that day would be, whether he would commit her for trial
at the Central Criminal Court or the Middlesex Sessions.
He presumed that Mr. Knox had made up his mind.
Mr. Knox : Yes, as between the two courts. He had
gone carefully through the evidence, and had come to the
conclusion that, on the whole, it would be better to send
the case to the Central Criminal Court, for the reason
that it had attracted a great deal of public attention,
certain names having been mixed up in it ; and, above all,
that as Lord Ranelagh was one of the Middlesex magist
trates there would be a sort of objection to sending it
there. As the case now stood, lie was bound to say that
it was a very strange one.

As the witnesses were not present to be bound over, a
discussion arose as to when the commitment should take
place, and it was arranged that they should appear later
in the day, Madame Rachel being detained in an ante-
room in the meantime.

Mr. Knox said that he wished to say a few words in
reference to the case as it appeared at the present time,
without having, of course, heard the evidence for the
defence. Madame Rachel was charged with obtaining
from Mrs. Borradaile the sum of 21,400, and also with
conspiring with two other persons to defraud. There was
some conflicting testimony, no doubt, especially in respect
to Mrs. Borradaile denying that she had borrowed from
radame Rachel the sum of 2500, as sheWn by her own
handwriting ; but on the whole he considered the case
against the accused was a very strong one. Mr. Knox
observed upon the attempts that had been made by
counsel to prolong the case on behalf of the defend-
ant, and intimated that those attempts, as well
as the applications for postponing the examina-
tion, were evidently made for the purpose of
impeding the course of justice. Madame Rachel had
appeared from time to time, and had been seen almost
daily about the court ; but at the last moment a medical
certificate had been handed in, stating that she was
not fit to be examined. had the medical gentlemen
themselves appeared and stated that, then he would have
bowed to their representations, but in their absence he
felt bound to have the accused before him, and to listen to
no more applications of the kind. There might he a com-
plete answer to the case in the background, but at present
no reference had been made, and he should therefore
commit Madame Rachel for trial.
Mr. Roberts said that he should reserve the defence.
The same amount of bail was taken for Madame Rachel's
appearance as before.
Madame Rachel was then taken to the anteroom and
left in charge of an officer till the witnesses appeared.

Spring terminated on Sunday morning at 18m.
past four, and summer began, astronomically, although
the last-named season has anticipated the official date in
bringing its characteristic heat.

His Royal Highness Prince Arthur, who has
just received a commission in the corps of Royal Engineers,
arrived at Chatham garrison on Tuesday morning, for the
Purpose of commencing his military duties at. the Royal
Engineer cstablishinent.

A deputation of volunteer medical officers will,
it is understood, shortly wait on the Secretary of State for
War, upon the recommendation of his Royal Highness the
Duke of Cambridge, Commander-in-Chief, regarding the
present unsatisfactory medical arrangements throughout
the whole force.

There is a rumour in the City that steps will
be henceforth taken by a large body of Conservatives of
the City of London to induce the Lord Mayor (Alderman
Allen) and Alderman Sir W. Rose to offer themselves as
candidates for the representation of the City at the next
general election. Mr. R. N. Fowler will not again enter
upon the contest.

THE NEW LAW RELATIVE TO DOGS.—The ordet
of Sir Richard Mayne on dogs took effect on Monday, and
a difference in the number of wandering dogs in the
streets is said to have been perceptible. According to the
present law it is not now necessary to prove that a dog is
in a rabid state in order to warrant its destruction; but a
magistrate is empowered, on complaint that a dog has
bitten or attempted to bite any person, and if it appears to
the magistrate that it ought to be destroyed, to order its
destruction by a police-constable.
TIIE SOUTHERN RAILWAYS AMALGAMATION'
ACTS.—This bill came before Lord Camoys' committee in
the House of Lords on Tuesday, and the noble chairman
announced that the committee were of opinion that the
preamble had been proved but they intended making
certain alterations in the rates proposed. They intended
to strike out the terminal rates for the metropolitan
stations, and instead of differential rates, as proposed, to
lave a uniform rate over the whole amalgamated system,
varying from 21d. per mile first-class and express, to id.
per mile third-class by ordinary trains.

DESTRUCTION OF SHEEP AND LAMBS BY LIGHT-
NING.—On Monday evening a very heavy storm of thunder
and lightning, accompanied by a good deal of rain.
passed over Barnsley, doing considerable damage in the
neighbourhood. At Worsborough Dale, about two miles
from the town, the electric fluid struck a number of sheep
and lambs belonging to Mr. W. Saville, farmer, of Swathe-
house, which were sheltering under a tree. Six ewes and
six lambs were killed on the spot. The lightning in its
course also struck the telegraph poles and wires not far
from where the sheep were killed, and for a considerable
distance split the former, and so destroying all communi-
cation by the wires. At other places in the same neigh-
bourhood a good deal of damage was done.
MELANCHOLY DEATH OF A BANK MANAGEB.—
Ectween six and seven o'clock on Tuesday morning, Mr.
Henry Ball, manager of the Lancaster branch of the Man-
chester and Salford Banking Company, left Lancaster to
go for a short ride in the country, according to his usual
custom. He was mounted on a pony, and had scarcely
got outside the town when the animal stumbled as it was
about to turn a corner. The result was that Mr. Ball two
thrown over the pony's head, and he alighted with great
violence upon a kerb-stone. When picked up, it was
found that he was shockingly injured about the head. He
never spoke afterwards, and died in less than five minutes.
The news of his melancholy death created quite a sense"

LONDON, TPEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, 1868.

Not the least troublesome of the many perplexing
questions which beset the relief given to our paupers
is the education given to our children. Those who
are actually within the precincts of the Union are
of course taken charge of by the authorities, and
receive some kind of education at the cost of the
parish. The children brought up in workhouses
are not always the most satisfactory members of
the pauper community, and they are very apt to
become permanently pauperised. The girls more
especially sink to a low grade, and the prejudice
existing against workhouse girls hinders them
from getting into respectable situations. Still
there is no reason to complain that they are
left actually uneducated, since the guardians pay
a properly qualified master and mistress, and
great improvements have taken place of late years
in the management of workhouse schools. They
have been for the most part removed to a distance
from town, and the children have the advantage of
growing up in fresh air and being kept apart from
the miscellaneous throngs that fill the workhouse.
But those paupers who are in receipt of out-door
relief can bring up their children as they please.
While they are receiving the money of the State
they may be allowing their children to associate
with thieves and pickpockets, and preparing a heavy
charge for the future against the pockets of the
ratepayers. If they are honestly destitute it seems
a hard case that, while the parish relieves their
bodily wants, it does not azs'st, them in a matter
less pressing, but not less momentous. At least,
this is the view of the case which presents itself to
Lord 11.111ROW0Y, who last night endeavoured to
mend matters by the introduction of a fresh clause
into the Poor Relief Bill in the House of Lords.
The nob:e earl proposed that the guardians should
have the power of making it a condition of grantinoc,
outdoor relief, that children of six years old and
under should be sent to school at the expense of
the guardians. Ti:e exercise of the power was to
be at the discretion of the guardians, as the time
for which outdoor relief is granted is sometimes so
short as to make any proposal of the kind quite
useless. On some grounds the scheme appeared
to be a good one, but we are not surprised
that it failed to find favour with the House. There
are many solid objections to it which could hardly
fail to strike a careful observer. In the first place,
it offers temptation to the indolent and encroaching
to shift the burden of their children's education
from themselyes to the State. " To go so far," as

The city of Worcester is one of the constituencies
which is to be contested at the coming election by
a " working man " candidate. The " working
man" selected for the honour is Mr. Airey, and
he has already put forth a lengthy address. He
avows himself a Protestant, and says the principles
of Protestantism " can be maintained without the
patronage of the State." He is, therefore, favour-
able to the disestablishment of the Irish Church.
The Maynooth Grant, he considers, " ought to be
immediately abolished," and he would " strenu-
ously oppose the Government proposal to establish
a Roman Catholic College in Ireland." The rate-
paying clauses of the Reform Act, he says, " must
be repealed." He is for manhood suffrage and a
large curtailment of the national expenditure. He
is favourable to the introduction of a Maine Law,
and would support such a measure as the Permis-
sive Bill. Above all, he would vote for the ballot,
and is opposed to treating and canvassing,
modestly affirming that " it will be an honour to
the electors, and especially to the working-classes,
if they prove to the world that an election can
be conducted upon Ore and independent prin-
ciples."

We have received a letter from Mr. Edmund
Beales, in reference to the report that he intends
to offer himself as a candidate for the Tower Ham-
lets. He says he is not personally ambitious of
the honour of entering the House of Commons,
and if conferred on him "it can only be by the
spontaneous action and at the voluntary expense
of the constituency" requiring him to undertake
the duty. Nor could he be a party, " directly or
indirectly, to any pecuniary expenditure whatever,
or to the obtaining a single vote otherwise than as
the complete free-will offering of the voter." Ile
adds that his great political aim has been and is
to refute the " erroneous, dangerous, and nation-
ally discreditable notions " entertained as to the
motives and character of the working classes, and
to teach the latter " the superiority of
_intelligent
moral force over brute physical force."

The House of Commons is certainly trying its
best to make up for the lost time of the earlier part
of the SC'SSIOn, and five hours yesterday morning
were devoted to the Public Schools Bill, and part of
it occupied the whole of the morning sitting. Mr.
NFAVDEGATE proposed to extend the period of the
existence of the governing bodies until 170, and in
I.;iirsuance of this purpose he twice divided the
I louse, and on both occasions was unsuccessful in
his attempt. This is as well, because to wait for
so long a time will only unsettle the minds of
those most immediately concerned, and can
really be of little service to any one.
If the changes and alterations which have
been suggested as necessary to suit the exigen-
cies of the present time are to come about,

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

ExETER.--The Western Morning News says that it is
stated that the rumours with reference to the probable
candidature of the Attorney-General (Sir J. Karslake) for
Exeter are so far correct that the hon. gentleman would
stand in:the event of there being no contest. He will not,
however, oppose Mr. Coleridge. Therefore if two candi-
dates are brought out on either side, Sir John Karslake
will not be among them.
BARNSTAPLE.—Sir G. Stucley (C.) and Mr. Thomas
Cave (L.), the sitting members, will offer themselves for
re-election.

BRIDGWATER.-It is rumoured that the sitting Liberal
members for Bridgwater will be opposed at the next
election by Mr. Henry Westropp (who formerly sat for
the borough, but was unseated on petition) and Sir Alfred
glade, in the Conservative interest.
TIPPERARY.--Mr. Peter Gill has announced his intention
:)f contesting this county against Mr. C. Moore.
