REMARKS.

During the last twenty-four hours the decrease in barometrical
pressure on the E. coast has been about two-tenths of an inch, whilst
at Biarritz there has been an increase of the same amount. In the S. of
Ireland and on our Channel coast the change has been slight. Tho
lowest readings are on our E. coast, and the highest on the W.
coast of France : between Yarmouth and Biarritz the difference is
nearly three-tenths. In the S. of England temperature is a little lower.
Over these islands winds yesterday were generally moderate from the
north-eastward : they are now very light from the N.W. A north-
westerly gale is now blowing in the W. and S. of France. Rain has
fallen in the N. and W. There has been lightning at Valencia and
Penzance. The weather is cloudy.

A telegram from Cork states that the report of
the Fenian outrage at Mills-street is an exaggeration. The
robbery was committed by a single person, who stated that
he had confederates within call.

Fenianism appears to have its origin in whiskey quite
as much as in the wrongs of Ireland. A man has been
charged at Dublin with tampering with soldiers. He met
them in the street, invited them to become Fenians, and
to drink a glass of whiskey with him. The latter
invitation was irresistible ; but, after partaking
of the hospitality of the man, one of the soldiers
gave him in charge of the police. The prisoner
Kelly found a friend in his master, for whom • Le
had worked twentyfive years. He gave him a good
character, and stood bail for him. Kelly will now have to
convince the magistrate at his next examination that the
old proverb "In vino veritas " has some exceptions.
It appears that he was very drunk.

The " unemployed poor" of the metropolis, or, rather,
so many of them as choose—having nothing better to do—
meet weekly in the neighbourhood of Hoxton to discuss
things in general. At the last meeting they considered the
position of the aristocracy. In a resolution of nearly three
hundred words, with only one full-stop, and that at the
end, they set forth their views upon the subject of
the incomes of millionaires. In the first part of
this resolution the National Debt is laid on the
shoulders of the " aristocratic few," who, " for
the purposes of ambition and self-aggrandisement,"
initiated and carried on past wars, and made
the people pay for them. The next point raised is that of
the large incomes possessed by some of the upper ten. The
Marquis of Bute is selected as an example. He is put
down as possessing £300,000 per annum, when he should,
according to the Hoxton political economists, he satisfied
with £5,000. This is deemed an evil of such magnitude
that the meeting " recommends for the consideration of
the next reformed Parliament the imperial necessity of
legislatively limiting or fixing a maximum to individuals'
incomes, approximating more or less to £5,000 per annum,
and his aggregate wealth at that amount capitalised at £5
per cent., and also for considering the propriety of apply-
ing the net aggregate surplus capital thereby realised in
reduction or extinction of the national debt, and the
balance (if any) to be applied in the reclamation and culti-
vation of waste lands, &c." The resolution concludes with
the prediction that if this programme be adopted a kind
of millennium will ensue.

A LARGE ACCESSION OF "PERSONS " TO TIIE
IlEormn OF VOTERS.—The members of the Scottish
branch of the Women's Rights Association are bound in
honour to vote a piece of plate, or something still more
complimentary, to the assessor for the burgh of Aberdem.
That otncial has included in his list of voters all females
holding property in the burgh. The result is that 1,088
female voters have been added to the male register of
B,2BB—rushing the total constituency 0,370. The sheriff
will show less sympathy with " women's rights" and a
better knowledge 9f the Reform Act when he proceeds to
mho the net in the registration coury-.Tortit
