iMONDAY, JULY 8, 1872. .
iMONDAY, JULY 8, 1872. THE Coal Mines Regulation Bill has now passed through committee, and although when the Report is brought up to-morrow night, it may be necessary that the measure, on account of 4be very numerous amendments introduced, should be re-committed before the third reading, the Commons have practically settled the terms upon which legislation in the matter will be based. We confess, at the outset, that the Bill is scarcely stringent enough in the interests of the large population of colliers, for whose safety and advantage it was mainly designed. Coal owners and their agents still have many loopholes of escape from the conse- quences of negligence and a reckless disregard for the sanctity of human life. But the scheme, even in its imperfect state, is to be accepted as a valuable instalment of reform well calculated to effect many and important changes for the better among the class which will be chiefly affected by it; and as experience will show in what respect it is deficient, the Bill may be amended next session, and any radical defects eli- minated from it. We congratulate the country upon the circumstance that greater protection will be afforded to an industrious and courageous body of operatives, who, hitherto, have incurred extra- ordinary risks in "winning coal" from the bowels of the earth. It may be that we shall still hear of ex- plosions and many other Occidents apparently insepa- rable from the vocation of a miner, but danger will be minimised by the operation of the measure when it passes into law, and the men will have a fairer prospect than ever of being able to carry on their work without the contingency of becoming martyrs to a brutal disregard for their safety on the part of owners, agents, or inspectors, upon whom the duty of efficiently looking after the pits is made more imperative than before. Such being the case, and occasion for disagreement between the colliers and their employers being considerably U's yin-d, it is The miners may be certain that prosperity will not last for ever, and probably it has reached a culmi- nating point. The coal may again accumulate at the mouth of the pit, iron may become a drug in the market, half the limited liability companies which have lately been formed for the purpose of carrying out all sorts of impcssible, schemes will collapse, a monetary crisis arise, and a fiscal panic assuredly f ollowrash and inconsiderate speculation as darkness does the withdrawal of light. For this unto- ward state of thingo Capital must get ready by hus- banding it3 profits, and for this emergency Labour should also seek to be prepared. Hitherto work- men have been for the most part content to live up to their means, to squander their money, and, adopting an Epicurean philosophy, to eat, drink, and be merry. When famine stalks abroad and gaunt forms wander about the mining districts wan and careworn, the ratepayers have hitherto been called upon to support them, and the eleemosynary aid of benevolence has been drawn upon to keep the collier and his family from starvation. Exacting as Labour has been of late, it may be, as the Time* remarked a few days since, that the care and sus- tentation of the poor will be forced upon those who organise strikes. There must be some- where a back-bone in the social anatomy, and in national life the power which sustains whatever is dependent should be defined. The burden ought surely to fall upon those who create it. When the cotton famine arose the cause was beyond the control of the operatives but should a period of depression set in affecting our mining population, it may be found to arise partly from the competition of other countries, and partly from the fact that the present enormous prices led to a collapse of railway and other undertakings by the absorption of funds in construction, be- fore a reproductive- return could be secured by the opening and working of the schemes. Capital, as in the case of the Building Trade, may at length be compelled to resist the demands of Labour. The colliers and their wives met the other day on the mountain near Tredegar, and, in emulation of the women of Durham, resolved not to buy meat while it remained at its present high- prices. They therefore know how- to combine against what they regard as an extortionate rata of charge for food. It may come to pass that if they do lic) altogether recognise the right of Capital to dictate terms to Labour, they will seethe necessity of rendering such a contingency improbable by mo- derating their demands. At all events, the work- men must not forget that they have duties to discharge as well as rights to maintain. They will best fulfil their obligations by thb exercise of self- denial and economy while the sun Of prosperity shines upon their homes, and thus prepare for the inevitable depression in trade which sooner or later must arise.

CONSIDERABLE anxiety exists with reference to the course which the Lords will take to-night when called upon to re-consider the Ballot Bill. The Times of Saturday, with a view to allay apprehen- sion, addressed a sort of homily to the Peers upon "constitutional duty," and urged that they should be content to "forego a vain display of legisla- tive independence." The leading journal says "Neversince the Retorni Bill of 1831 has the House of Lords persisted in opposing the House of Com- monsonmatters specially concerning electoral rights and privileges. Its successful resistance to the Ap- propriation Clause, its mutilation of Municipal Reform Bills for Great Britain and Ireland, and even its temporary refusal to abolish the Paper Duties, though acts of very doubtful policy, did not involve a struggle with the Commons on ground so eminently unfavourable to itself as the merits of a Ballot Bill. During the last forty years the Repeal of the Corn Laws seemed alone likely to call forth an antagonism between the two I-lotises of the same kind as that which is now threatened. History tells us how that antagonism was averted. It was averted, as other political dangers had been averted, by the steady patriotism of the Duke of WELLINGTON, whose letter to the late Lord DERBY, written in 1846, is assuredly among his wisest utterances. In that letter he is not ashamed to urge that it is- impossible for the House of Lords permanently to overrule the will of the House of Commons, its true function being that of revis- ing and amending. If this was gool advice when the Lords, though a body of landowners, professed to speak on behalf of the whole agricultural, interest, how far more pertinent is it when they cannot profess to be the exponents of any opinions except those of a class which is specially bound not to interfere with Parliamentary elections ?" It is to be hoped that the advice will be taken, and that the country may not be precipitated into the turmoil of a general election, at a time when considerable loss must accrue from the interrup- tion of the harvest operations, and the general dis- turbance of trade. Indeed, it is more than pro- bable that the crisis will pass without caus- ing even temporary inconvenience, since we learn from the Observer that there is a serious division of opinion in the Conservative camp as to. the expediency of insisting on Lord Salisbury's amendment. In consequence of this division it is expectedthattlieLordswillforegotheideaof making the Ballot optional, and will accept the compromise of a Ballot accompanied with the power of scrutiny." The Globe, however, says: We hope and believe the Upper House will adhere to its resolve. The course which the Government may elect to take is a matter which cannot enter into the calcu- lation. This purely party measure must. not b6 allowed to override the judgment of the best, and in this instance, most popular Assembly." Upon the whole, we think it likely that the Peers will give way, although it cannot be denied that the Tories would stand a much better chance of holding their own in the country at the present moment, than they can hope to have when the Ballot Bill passes into law. There is no doubt that we are on the eve of troublesome times, but we may reasonably hope that the Upper House will not push matters to extremes, but remain satisfied •vith the measure as modified by the Commons.

For Messrs. Howfray, Colborne, Christophers, Fox, and Richardson, the total number of voters who polled on their behalf wa3 1,829, anA for Messrs. Butchelor, lleyuon, Fhiilips, and Osborne- 488. There has therefore been a gain for the Nonconformist party of 497, making a totlOl of 985 and on the otber side thnre has been a decrease from 1,320 to 1,038, or in other words, an actual loss of 241 votes.

MR. WHALLEY AND THE "CLAIMANT."¡
MR. WHALLEY AND THE "CLAIMANT." Mr. Whalley afforded the Lower House some amuse- ment on Friday evening. The Speaker put the motion for going iuto Committee of Supply, and, no member rising, the motion was at once carried. Scarcely bad Mr. Grant Duff, however, r<pla'ced Mr. Brand in the chair, when Mr. Whalley rose to order, and asked if he was to til-i,lerstaiitlthtt the Speaker had le.t the chair, as he had a motion on the paper by way of amendment to the Tichborne case, being, of course, in the interest of that "Claimant" of whom the hon. member fir Peterborough has become so devoted, an adherent. But, fortunately for the p itience of the H >tis •, and much to its amusement, Mr. Whalley was too late. He might as well have tried to roll back the stream of time as to get the Speaker in the chair again to listen to his grievance, or that of his corpulent friend. Once more the Claimant WHS non-suited.
SUICIDE OF A LIBERATED POLITICAL-PRISONER.
SUICIDE OF A LIBERATED POLITICAL- PRISONER. Lieutenant Martin Hauney Carey, who had been a prominent member of the Amnesty Association, cori- mittfcd suicide on Saturday morning by throwing him- self into the-'Lifi'ev at Essex Bridge, Dublin,. Mr. Carey had served in the Northern Army during the American Civil War, at the conclusion of which he returned to Ireland aud became a prominent Fenian. He was arrested for h-eason-fe!ony, and sentenced to ten years' penal ser- vitude, but was discliargdd after serving five years, on accouut of mental derangement. He afterwards joined the Foreign Legion under General Bourbaki in the Franco-German war, in which he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant. When the war ended he joined the Amnesty Association. On the. occasion of the affray in Plioenix-park, in August last, Mr. Cni'&y was badly injured in the head. He brought an action against Lord Hartington, which was to have been tried in November next. His suicide is attributed to excite- ment, occasioned by the Byrne v. Hartington trial, ia which he was naturally much interested.
TERRIFIC STORMS IN THE TAFF…
TERRIFIC STORMS IN THE TAFF VALLEY. GREAT DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY. A terrific thunderstorm commenced throughout the Taff Valley and in the neighbouring districts about one o'clock yesterday morning,and continued untilafternooii. In Cardiff, the ped, of thunder, at first" faint and dis- taut, became louder as the angry clouds drew nearer the town, and lightning, frequent and exceedingly vivid, dazzled the sight. The rain fell in torrents, and at times with unexampled fury.. Though the thunder diminished in violence as the day grew older, the rain continued with iropical fierceness in Cardiff and its neighbourhood throughout the day. The roads in places were submerged, the fields wore turned into swamps, and the promising bay harvest has been sadly damaged, and in some places almost destroyed throughout the rural district. The river Taff, swollen by the mountain freshets, rose to an unusual height, and, subject though it be to sudden accessions of fnry,it assumed, accordingto general descrip- tion, an aspect of rage such as it has not worn for years. Frum all the towns in the valley we lrave received re- ports of overflowed lands and flooded meadows, with the consequent damage to property and havoc among the stock. In its early reaches on the Brecon borders, it received its first rush of storm water, and it swept through Merthyr with such force and violence that grave fears were entertained for the safety of the iu- secure bridge that forms the chief means of communication between the two sides of the town. Below Merthyr it rose still higher. At Troedyrhiw one part of the town was flooded, the water penetrating the liouges. The land, which there, lies below the river bank, was covered with water, and, in fact, turned inte a water course, the rapid stream in places having in- creased to three or four times its normal width. The Merthyr V HIe Colliery, which has previously been flooded, was again inundated by tha water. All the way down to Quaker's Yard the same tale of damage and loss is told. Every mile of its course saw the river gain fresh strength and greater velocity. At the confluence of the Cynon wi:h the Talf, the former river, whidh also bad over-run its banks, increased the body of the Taff, which rolled through the narrow gorges above Pontypridd like a sea in a gale, the waves being described by our corres- pondent as warranting no other simile. In' the lowlands below, swollen into larger volumes by the influx of the already swollen Rhondda, the Taff over- run the fields, seized upon trees and hedgerows, and swallowed up, in several cases, sheep from the pasture, pigs from the stye, and, we are informed, a horse from a meadow above Taff's Well. On Cardiff Bridge, the sight was a grand one. The excited river at midday, leaped and rushed within its con- fines as though a tempest tossed it. Upon its surface were borne trunks and branches of trees, now and then a hurdle, or a mass of tangled hay. It tore along at the rate of ten miles an hour,and nearly reached the springs of the central arch as it passed beneath. The meadows seaward of the bridge were flooded, and received deposits of sticks, stones, and debris of nil kinds. Towards evening, the rain having ceased, the river somewhat subsided, but still ran at a- great height, nnJ with extiaordinary violence.

FOREIGN NOTES. Tins GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY,Tho Imperial Lieograpliica? Society of Russia has lately held its final sitting before tfhe holidays. After discussing various new publications, and reading correspondence from the nume- rous exploring members, M. Staritzky made a very inte- resting statement ubout the hydrographical state- oi the sett of Japan. He alao furnished some new maps of the Straits of Sakhaline, and closed by strongly advocating the organisation of a regular expedition to thoroughly ex- plore the Russian coasts of the Pacific Ocean. England,v he said, keeps two vessels in the seas of China and Japivn to explore the coasts, and we ought to imitate her., Tm: FOURTH OF Juxr.—Tho Americans all over the Continent have celebrated the anniversary of their inde- pendence. At Geneva there vms a banquet at the Sotal de la Metrppole, when Mr. Cushing, a member of the Arbitration. Tribunal, gave the toa3t for America. Mr. Upton, American Consul at Geneva, proposed the health of the President of the Swiss Republic; Mr. Adams pro- posed that of Mr. Davis; and General Carthen that of the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland Two telegrams were sent to the Paris-banqnet, which took place at the Grand Hotel, and was- very numerously attended. Lieutenant Grant and Colonel Hoffman were, unfortunately, unable to be present, owing to their interview with M. Thiers, which took place' that afternoon. The banquet commenced by prayer from the embassy-chaplain, Rev. Mr. Hitchcock. At dessert, Mr. Cowden, who presided, pronounced an interesting discourse on the prodigious de- velopment of the United States. "Before this splondid future," he said, what will Europe be with its divisions- of mceand tongue, and especially with the hatred, the jealousy and mistrust that the last war has sewn in all hearts ? Several toasts were proposed, "Tlie President of the United States," The President of the French Republic; "Union, the perpetuation of free institutions," &c Mr. Cowden then proposed Tire French Republic," and said, May she shew to the whole world that education and religion can be protected, commerce and arts- en- couraged, and the geneial wolfare of atl classes maintained and developed by free institutions under the republican form." -NI. Laboulaye, in iviplv, made a patriotic speech, concluding with hopes of perpetual friendship between France and America. Several other toasts were then pJlOoo posed by iliffei-oitt persons present, and an original poem called '*Salut a In. France," written by M. Frank Dltrivag in English, was read, and finally the last toast was drunk, to the grandson of Lafayetta, the present French Foreign Minister. TMIC FUHXCH MoxAitcmcAL lr(W' T. -Never was » greater hoax got up than that brought- forward by the Republican papers about a conspiracy formed by tho Monarchists against the existing Government. The idea of Marshal M'Malion being at the head of it, and having received ordets to take a month's holiday at St. Malo, ma1" be safely rawkod among the worst canards of the French press. The Gazette de Farts declares that in presence of the rumours growing everywhere more prominent and which agitate public opinion at the very moment when it is necessary that the country should give tho actual Ooverninent its patriotic support, we think that the honest Press should get up & national demonstra- tion which, by filling up tlia present absence of one of the constitutional gearings (viz., decrees), should manifest to Fr .noe and to the world the true current of public opinion. We therefore inform our rend--): that? from this day we open our columns to all manifestations written and signed from the departments, intended to advise the President of the iiepuhlio to remain at his peso, in spite of the resist- anof a majority which is ever displacing itself, and only incompletely represents the true majority of the country. The letters and adhesions thus received will be imme- Ili-icely published in this paper and sent. to the Government at the same time:" SWRTUSH AHMT MANU'XVRKS.—The Swedes, following tho example of other countrie i, are about to have military nt Youkophig Camp. The Youbj'piny Gazette announces that Captain Borelly, the- French Militaiy Attache, has been most kindly received by the Swedish oHijars'. At the mess toasts were given for France, and the French national airs sung by the o3icer3 of tho Garde. _j
NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.
NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Army mil Gazette says:—Lieutenant-Colonel A. KItis DSlS boon selecte-I to bo the ofiicer in charge of the foreign officers during the Autumn Manoeuvres.—Several members- of our Hoard of Admiralty paid a compli- mentary visit to, the American srjuadron at Southampton on Thursday. Several steps will shortly fall to. the senior Army Assistant-Surgeons. Kfuly Gazettes are expected to contain the promotions.— Tho War Office intend to withdraw those clauses from the new Volunteer regulations which are so objectionable to medical otlieei-s.-Tlic Gran I Dukes Constantine and Dimitri, sons of the Grand Duke Constantine, Lord High Admiral of the Russian Nlwy, have just sailed from Cron- stndt in the frigate Peresvet: on a cruise of instruction to fit them for A naval career. The Russian Imperial family is sett ng a worthy example in entering the Navy, tor the Grand Duke Alexis, third son of the Emperor, now on a foreign tnur, ill ahoa sailor. The United Sevvice GazHte says:—Tho arrangement WÙdl obtained until the-last few days that ten Militia regiments should take part in the 'Autumn Manoeuvres, has within that period undergone such modifications' that the number has been red iced to eight. The force was to have included six English corpQ, viz., the Royal South Gloucester Light infantry, the 3rd Royal Lan- caster, 2nd Middlesex (or Edmonton R(lyal Rifles), 2nd Stafford (King's Own), 2nd Somerset, and the 2nd Watwick; two Scotch, viz., the Royal Aberdeenshire Highlanders and the 2nd Royal Lanark; and two Irish, viz., the Royal South Down Light Infantry and the KiL kenny Fusiliers. Intimation has, however, been conveyed to the 2nd "Warwickshire and the 2nd Lanark that they are not to come out. The course taken by the military authorities in rigidly excluding all volunteers who are not prepared to remain out a whole fortnight, though generally commended by officers of experience, when taken in con- junction with the fa-ct of the curtailment of the number of Militia corps, seems to suggest doubts of the capa- bilities of the Control Department. We believe it has been decided that the Southern or invading force will assemble at Blandford, Wilts, and that the Northern, or defending force, will have Aldershot as its basis. The former body will include the 3rd Battalion Grenadier Guards,. 1st Battalion. Coldstream Guards, 1st Scots Fusilier Guards, 1st Battalion, 1st Royal Scots, 2nd Battalion, 15th, 1st Battalion, 17th, 2nd Battalion, 23rd Royal Welsh Fusi- liers, 88th Connauglit Rangers, 9.3th, the 2nd and 4th Battalions, llifle Brigade, and four regiments of Militia. This arrangement and the composition of the northern force are, however, subject to such changes as may be deemed necessary. We havo heard it. stated that the whole battalions of the Foot Guards in England are to take part in the proceedings, and that the 50th Queen's Own will, during the period of the Guard's ab- sence from London, be stationed at the Tower.— The under-mentioned officers have been appointed to pro- ceed to Canada, in connection with the Commission for the Survey of the Boundary between the Dominion of Canada and the United States from the Lake of tho Woods to the Rocky Mountains :—Chief Commissioner, Captain Cameron, R.A. Assistant Commissioners, Lieutenant A. Featherstonhaugh, R.E., Lieutenant W. J. Galwey, R.E., Astronomer, Lieutenant Anderson* RH.; Secretary, Lieutenant Ward, R.E. Lieutenant Featherstonhaugh is undergoing a course of astro- nomy under the superintendence of Sir G. Airey, K.C.B. preparatory to proceeding with the expedition.- We learn that instructions have been issued by the Admi- ralty granting permission to any captain or other officer in ■ command of one of her Majesty's iron ships, on his own re- sponsibility, to place his vessel in any private dock at any foreign port, should he think her to be defective. The groad Arrow says:—Captain Reynardson, of the Grenadier Guards, has been appointed an aide-de-camp, and Major Taylor, B.S.C., an extra aide-de-camp, to his Excellency the Viceroy of India.—The warrant for the promotion of certain officers in the Royal Artillery and Engineers, has been approved of by the Treasuty, and now only awaits the sign manual of her Majesty. ¡

On, Stanley! on Were the last words of "—LIVINGSTONE. —Morning Advertiser. Alderman Mackey has been chosen Lord Mayor of Dublin for next year. Mr. Anthony O'Niel, the eminent coachbuililer, was the second candidate for the office. THE AMENDS HoNoRABLF.-We are enabled to state, in reference to the question put in the House of Commons last Friday, on the exclusion of the name of the Mayor of Drogheda from the commission for the approach- ing assizes for that town, that the omission was made without the knowledge of either the Lord-Lieutenant or the Lord Chancellor of Ireland.—Morning Post. SUNDAY LIQUOR SFLL-IN-G.-The General Sea-, sione/Grand Jury, New York, have made a special present- ment, in which they call the attention of the Chief of Police to the increasing number of beggars, and the great Increase of crime, caused, as they believe, by the violation of the Excise law in keeping open places for the sale of wine and liquors on Sunday. > M. CHEVALIER AND THE FRENCH TAXES.—The I Economist says that while the Chamber is engaged in its; t search for new elements of taxation, M. Michel Chevalier points out in the Presse a means, which all parties have hitherto studiously avoided, of obtaining a balance of the receipts and expenditure. His plan, which would spare the country from the fresh burdens the least injurious of the proposed taxes would inflict on it, is simply a reduction in the cost of administration. He, shews the great increase in the Budget for Ministerial serviced from 1809 to 1873; whereas in the home affairs in the former year seventy-four millions were demanded, in 1873 eighty-six are wanted; and if seven millions are taken from this as direct consequences of the war, the increase will be still five millions. The same is found in all the Ministries. In the War Office the ircrasiw demanded is tixty-six millions* Mr. and Mrs. Badcnanri (Milly Palmer) bare returned fro u i heir Anstrelian tour, and appears this etening 0 at the Queen's in Narcisse."
