MATERNAL AFFECTION, the picture by Bruhl, of B
lin, now amongst the collection at the Dublin Exhibith
has been purchased by Mr. Samuel Holine, the Mayor of
Liverpool. The subject is one of thrilling interest. A
house, in which two children are asleep, is being consumed
by fire ; and while the father is hesitating

s to wha

course he shall pursue, the mother, actuated by a strong
feeling of maternal affection, rushes through the flames to
save her offspring.
PRoFAYE SWEARING.—At the New Baik.
house, Salford, a case of this kind was brought before M
Trafford, magistrate, on Tuesday, upon a summons, rather
reluctantly granted, at the application of a master silk
manufacturer against his servant. Mr. Smith, the appli-

cant, said the offender's name was John Buckley, a labourer
in his employ, and he was in the habit of using most
shocking oaths. The magistrate said, " Buckley, do you
plead guilty of swearing profane oaths ?" Buckley
" Yes, when I'm out of temper." Magistrate —" Then the
act of parliament says you must pay a shilling." The
court fees made the fine into one of four shillings, which
was paid.
SELECT VESTRY.—On Tuesday, at the fortnightly
meeting of this body, the Rev. Rector Campbell presided.
Mr. Moss said he had received an offer from ,a respectable
party to restore the chimes of St. Peter's Church, and to
wind them up andkeep them in repair for £25 per annum.
He was sure the general vestry would sanction such an ex-
penditure by the churchwardens ; and he for one would be
willing, to exonerate them from risk by a private sub-
scription. The matter was referred to the churchwardens,
who will appeal to the next general vestry on the subject.
It was agreed to pay the demand of the council on the
parish for £2,442 as library and museum rate. A letter
had been received from Mr. H. W. Slack, stating that he
had received a telegraphic report of the death of his
partner, Mr. Frederick Cripps, one of the district medical
officer' and tendering his servites till a successor be ap-
pointed ; whereupon a resolution had been passed recom-
mending that Mr. Slack should be placed in the temporary.
charge of the district, at the same rate of remuneration as
that received by Mr. Cripps,—the appointment to be sub-
ject to discontinuance at a 'week's notice. It was reported
that about 16 of the children from the Industrial Schools
had received situations -since the last board day, and that
one girl had absconded. There were vacancies at present
for 63 boys and 109 Oils. The total number of inmates in
the Workhouse was stated to be 1,703, amongst whom
there are 417 sick cases. Mr. Hart read a return, showing
that, whilst there had been an increased cost of provith'ons,
the number of paupers had diminished, there being 305
this week less than in the corresponding week of last year.
A woman, named Elizabeth Carpenter, had applied to be
changed on the:books from a Romanist to a Protestant,
which, after tine inquiry, had been granted according!.
The Vestry then adjourned.
