TOPICS OF THE DAY.

WANTED, A CAUSE FOR AN EFFECT.

--- - -
A ieport of the fall of the three houses lately
erected in the Holloway-road closes with the remark
" that the cause has not yet been ascertained." Those
who have lived in our modern London dwellings
will be at no loss for a reason why houses should fall
directly they are built. A people reveals its character
in its architecture. In the massive grandeur of
Egypt there was written the character of a people
warlike and powerful ; in the Greek temple
there is culture and refinenlnt ; in the houses
of Hampstead, Holloway., ft 3 el se a , and Pimlico, some
of which appear to only shells on which to plaster
an inordinate .7,-inount of stucco, there is revealed the
greed of " speculating builder." To use a cant
tem:, in the trade, the work is " stamped," the sur-
veyor deceived, the houses hurriedly run up with bad
materials and slovenly workmanship ; and then the
tenant is condemned to the torment of doors which
will not shut, windows that do not open, and first
floors which will shake with the tread of a mouse.
Sometimes these wretched shams tumble down from
sheer weakness. We can heartily echo the Usual con-
gratulation, " Fortunately, no one was in the house,
or passing at the time." May it ever be so while
houses fall,
London, England, 1868-10-20

rhe American Chamber of Commerce are making every
i?reparation for the grand banquet to be given to Mr.
Johnson in Liverpool on Thursday evening next. At a
special meeting of the Council of the Liverpool Chamber
of Commerce, on Monday, the following address to the
Hon. Mr. Reverdy Johnson was adopted :—" May it please
your Excellency—We, the Council of the Liverpool Cham-
ber of Commerce, offer you on this occasion our warmest
welcome to this port, which is more closely united
by the bonds of commerce with your own country than
any other port of the world. We congratulate you on
the restoration of peace and uponahe returning confi-
dence shewn throughout the various sections of you
Union. We would desire to record our high satisfaction
that the American nation ndll continue to be represented
by an ambassador with express mission to main-
tain and strengthen those friendly relations which
for more than half a century have existed between
the United States and the United Kingdom a
mission you have emphr.tieally expressed your desire
amply to fulfil. We rejoice to believe that this desire is
In harmony with the unanimous wishes of both nations.
Similar feelings may be interchanged between other
countries and your own, but between the American and
the English people they spring from a relationship which
of itself should constitute a guarantee against their
violation. We would not, however, have this
international friendship founded only in associa-
tions with the past ; it should be kept alive by.
mutual interests in our own time, and perpetuated
by still brighter hopes for the future. This can only be
done by maintaining and by continually enlarging our
commercial intercourse. England has during the last
twenty-five years entirely reversed her commercial policy.
She has discarded the unjust and delusive policy of pro-
tection and adopted that of free trade. Trusting to the
natural play of her native energies, she has challenged
the world at large to an open competition. With more
or less courage the continental nations are gradually
responding to her appeal, and tariff after tariff becomes
modified in the interests of a freer commerce. We are
quite aware that an increase of foreign trade makes nations
more dependent upon each' other, but, instead of lament.
ing, we glory in this result, because in mutual dependence
will be found the surest bonds of amity. We trust your
Excellency will permit us to express the hope that the day
is not far distant when the United States will in like
manner unfetter her energies, enlarge her commerce with
other countries, and chew the world that she is even greater
in the resources of peace than in those of war. In this
hope we rest.—By order of the Council, JOHN PATTERSON,
President."

GOLD DISCOVERIES.

Another gold discovery is announced. This time it is
in the United States, in the territory of Idaho. The
American papers speak of the deposits as being of extra-
ordinary richness. It is not likely, however, that this
region can be rendered available before the Indians are
quieted. Fresh discoveries of gold and other metals are
continually being made in the district lying near the
Pacific, which is beyond doubt the richest in the world.
The Natal Immigration Commissioner gives his authority
in favour of the recent discoveries in South Africa. He
says it is a fairly settled question that the precious metal
exists in considerable quantities and in several localities in
the north of the English settlements.

OYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern
Railway Terminus, King's Cross.
Patron—Her Most Gracious MAJESTY the QUEEN.

It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in
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

STREET OUTRAGES.

During the summer, complaints have been many
and various of the perils attending pedestrianism in
the London streets. In open day and frequented
thoroughfares people have been robbed and beaten.
The celebrated London fog has at last made its
appearance, and under its protection cases of garot-
ting and street robbery are likely to be more nume-
rous than ever. The police actually admit
that on such a place as Westminster Bridge
nightly robberies are committed with impunity,
because the police are " underforced." In matters
of private detection and surveillance and in
regulating traffic they are ready enough, and places
of public amusement they willingly take under their
charge ; but the alley where the Irish row is per-
petually on, or the corner where the young thieves
congregate, is not so much favoured by them. It is
quite time that the force was increased or re-
organised, and if Sir Richard Mayne were not so
entirely absorbed by the study of hydrophobia he
might find something here to employ him well.

STATE RAILWAYS.

Mr. Arthur John Williams is determined that his
scheme for the purchase of railways by the State
shall not fail for want of detail. Step by step he
argues the whole matter out in the Daily News. His
latest production is most interesting. It abounds
with figures. What he contends for is a low single
fare. He would have only two classes; and he
examines the traffic receipts on English railways to
see the lowest single fare that could be adopted. He
comes to the conclusion that the expense of carrying
every passenger of every class, whatever distance he
travelled, whether two miles or three hundred, is
rather less than qd. per head. Further, he
calculates that if each passenger who travelled
in 1860, whether first, second, or third class,
and whether he travelled from one station to
another or from one end of the kingdom to another,
had paid a small fraction of a penny more than 13d.,
the companies would have received the income they
received in 1866. He submits, therefore, that a
table of fares, something as follows, would pay the
State without profit. Under five miles, first class
4d.; second, 2d ; under ten, first, Bd.; second, 4d. ;
under twenty, ls., and Gd. ; under fifty, 2s. Gd., and
ls. ; above fifty, 55., and ls. Gd. A uniform single
fare of 2s. Gd. and ls., with a scale for very short
distances, would do, Mr. Williams thinks, all that
was required. The importance of these calculations
cannot be over-estimated. It is to be hoped that the
whole matter will be thoroughly ventilated.

THE THIRSTY TRAVELLER.

The Act regulating the public-houses of the metro-
polis provides that they shall not open till one o'clock
on Sunday afternoon, except for travellers. Some of
the " travellers" occasionally found therein live
within a stone's throw of the hostelry, and are of
such a temperament that they require refreshment
at the very beginning of their journey, if they
intend to make one. The Act, we need hardly
observe, did not intend to oblige such as
these, and therefore, when some police inspec-
tors dropped into two Highgate public-houses
on
.Sunday morning, and saw some old
familiar faces, they were obliged to procure a
summons against the publicans, who were convicted
and fined. It is manifest, however, that the law is
easily evaded, although the red nose of the local
toper is too glaring a piece of evidence for the
conscientious policeman to ignore.

THE LATE EMPEROR MAXIMILIAN.

Was the late Emperor of Mexico the author of the
decree of October 1865, which ordered the punishment of
death to be inflicted upon all who appeared in arms
against the Empire ? On the one hand, it is alleged
that Marshal Bazaine originated the decree, and that
Maximilian was opposed to it, and even tried to
prevent its being carried out. On the other hand, it is
put forward as a fact that he signed it, and Marshal Bazaine
denies being the author of it. The Daily News is inclined
to trust the partisanship which defends the dead, rather
than which attaches itself to those who can acknowledge
it. The decree in question was utterly opposed to
Maximilian's character. It is certain that he was cruelly
deceived when he signed it, and that he afterwards took
steps to mitigate its operation.

REMAEKB.

The increase in pressure noticed yesterday afternoon has continued
In England, but a rapid decrease has set in during the night in
Ireland, and has shewn itself in Scotland also since midnight. The
lowest reading is at Valencia : the difference between it and that at
Plymouth is only o'2in. Barometrical gradients baYe changed their
directions considerably. In the W. of Ireland temperature has risen
considerably, but in Scotland a diminution is reported. Winds
yesterday were generally light to moderate from the north, and still
continue from the same point, except in Ireland, where, a fresh
south-westerly breeze has now set in. On our S. and E. coasts mist
is reported also fog in the west. The weather is generally cloudy on
other coasts. Bright aurora reported from Nairn. Warning, bawd

INDIA.

The news from the north-west frontier leaves the cam-
paign pretty nearly where it was. Some of the tribes
were endeavouring to abandon their confederates, and
have sent in deputations assuring the authorities that they
had no part with the Hussanzyes, the most peccant tribe,
in the late disturbances. The advance of the British has
been slow, movement in this hilly country being very
difficult, as well as dangerous, if the whole force be not
kept well together. The Times of India continues very
rashly to write down the apprehensions caused by the
advances of the Russians. But the Russians do not cease
to lessen the distance between their outposts and the
Indian frontier. The Levant mail brought intelligence of
another onward movement. If fear may be carried too
far, so also may confidence.
It is thought that Sir John Lawrence will not leave
India until the middle of January, after the arrival of
Earl Mayo. It will probably fall to the new Governor-
General to receive the Duke of Edinburgh.
