fHagantwei The Family Friend, British Workman, and Little Sunshine are very attractive, and up to their usual standard ef merit. Aunt Judy's Magazine (George Bell and Sons, York- street, Covent Garden) provides much enjoyable reading for the little ones. The tales are amusing and partake of a good character. Messrs Strahan and Co's Little Peep Show improves each month. The publishers have succeeded in pro- viding a very superior serial for children and deserve every encouragement. Good Things (Strahan and Co., 34, Paternoster-row) is profusely illustrated, and a capital magazine for the young of all ages. The reading matter will prove interesting to the young and will help to recall in the minds of old persons their early life and pleasures. ThelDay of Rest (Strahan and Co., 12, Paternoster- row) ranks high amongst its contemporaries. For I Sunday reading it is impossible to calculate its worth. The illustrations and reading matter are deeply interest ing and likely to be of vast benefit to the family circle into which this magazine finds its way. The publishers of the ChI istian World Magazine (J. Clark and Co., 13, Fleet-street) promise a new tale by the editor, in the November number. The three serial tales that are now running through the columns of the magazine are extremely attractive. The Churchman's Shilling Magazine (Houlston and Sons, Paternoster-square) contains an attractive article on the physical peculiariiies of great men, by W. Davenport Adams; another on "Foreign Loans," and the opening chapters of a new tale entitled D'Eyncourt .Manor," and the remainder cf the magazine is of an interesting nature. Le Pallet (E. Minster and Co., 8, Argyll-place, Regent street) has the usual number of plates of current costumes, and some reading of a light character; whilst The Lit tIe Dressmaker Q5. Miller, 37, Tavistock-street, Covent Garden) furnishes all that is necessary for children's and dolls' cos, uines. There are,patterns given away with elch of these journals. Dr Whitlemore's Golden Hours (W. Mackintosh, 24, Paternoster-row) is, as usual, full of interest. The White Cuirassier," a tale of the Franco-Prussian War, which has so vividly depicted many scenes in that struggle, is drawing to a close. It has proved a most absorbing tale, and the readers of this magazine will greatly regret its conclusion. There is nothing in this month's number to call for special attention. Many articles, that have been already spoken of are continued, and altogether the Surial maintains its high position amongst its contemporaries. Tins ley's Magazine (Tinsley Brothers, 8, Catherine- street, Strand) is chiefly devoted to serial tales. "Honours divided" and c. vVIth harp and crown" are capital works of fiction, and their interest continues in the number before us. Dr Maurice Davies discourses, in his j usual lively strain, on topics of the day in The social status quo." There are a numbér of other verv readable papers. We observe with pleasure that our friend Mr Farjeon will again treat us to a Christmas story. Its title will be An island pearl," a story of the sea, which will possess much domestic and romantic interest. Evening Hours (Strahan and Co., 34, Paternoster- row) has a variety of readable articles. "Jonathan," a tale which for months has proved its most attractive feature, is confirmed. We hope ere long to see it issued as a volume, and have no hesitation in saying that it will be a popular publication. Amongst the noteworthy contributions may be specified an article on Beethoven's "Leon om," translated from the German; and another on Ladv Helps. The continuation of many papers which have heretofore received our approbation, greatly enhance the value of -this useful periodical. Lady Barker exercises great discretion in editing this serial. Miss B. addon. in Belgravia (Warwick House, Pater- noster-row), continues her charming story Hostages to Fortune." In this novel the author of "Lady Audley's Secret" shows her extraordinary talents in the descrip- tion of character in every class of society. For this tale alone the magazine is worth its price, but there are many readable articles besides. In the next number of Belgravia will appear the opening chapters of a new novel by Miss Braddon; novelettes by Mary Cecil Hay, author of "Old Myddelron's Money," &c.; Mrs C. Reade, author cf "Rose and Rue," &c.; Dutton Cook, and other popular writers, will appear in succeeding numbers. The Belgravia, annual will be ready in November. It will contain a variety of articles by well-known writers, and will be illurated with whole page engravings. The Gentleman's Magazine (Grant and Co., 72 Turn- mill-st., E.C.) has very varied and attractive articles this month. Mr Lacy gives a very readable light article on the "Back o' Widely," and an English Jew discourses on Moaern Judaism"—their present position in the world. The most important paper, however, is contributed by p I Mr W. Cullagh Torrtas. who discusses the question Are good recruits worth paying for?" This subject has occupied considerable attention amongst militarv men recently, and the article will be the more eagerly perused. Mr Torrens says We will not endure a Conscription, and the rural classes hovering on the verge of starvation have disappeared. Able-bodied and well- conditioned recruits can no longer be had without paying for them the price which even rough labour is now become worth. Failing to secure it, there are but two allernatives-the ragamuffins of the town, or the foolish lads of the Village." He has not a very high opinion of short service And the prospects of re-enlistment. The 1 serial tales are very enjoyable. Streamed with gold" is the title of the extra Christmas number of the I Gentleman's. It will consist of a set of seven stories in one plot, the joint production of the best contributors to the magiz;oe. It will be the successor of co Like a ¡ Snowball," the Christmas number of 1874, which was one of the most successful works ot the kind that has been published at the Christmas season for many years.

AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS. Mr R. Valpy, of the Statistical and Commercial Department of the Board 'cf Trade, has recently com- piled a county summary cf the agricultural statistics of Great Britain for the years 1874-5, giving the total acreage under crops, &c.. and the acreage under each kind of corn crop, the acreage under each kind of green crop, and under flax, hops, bare fallow, and grass, and the number of horses, cattle, sheep and pigs. The returns are made up to the 25th June, in each of the years named. From the return we gather the following particulars as to the year ending 25th June, 1875 :— I Total of Acreage Counties under all kinds Acreage under each. Description of Corn Crop. Proper.

LAW CONFERENCE. On Saturday'tle Conference of Poor-^ JJ gates from U mOD. d br Lancaster Chester, and Derby, tesuitned and concluded at Southport. Mr J. ,1. Hibbert again presided. Consideration of the qU&>tl°!1 how best to improve the administration of reiiei generally was con- tinned. Mr W. Rathbone, M.P., referring to » paper read opening the subject on Friday, said that it answered the question in this way—that they must lock for improvement mainly to the restriction of out-door relief to those cases to wnich it could be safely applied, and to such only and he gathered that this was of opinion of the Con- ference, and it had long been his own. The ques- tion, therefore, was how this object could be best accomplished. He was of opinion that a mistake had been made in extending Union cbargeability to out-door relief, and considered that such relief should be charged to the parish alone, while indoor relief should be charged on the larger area. He believed it to be the case that the present Go- vernment intended to give larger assistance to localities from the Imperial funds, and he thought that such money would be best spent by giving an inducement to prefer in-door to out-door relief, except where the latter mLht really be desirable. He suggested, for example, a subsidy of 2s per head per week, or, as in London, 2s lid per head per week given by Government. Then the cost of an indoor pauper being, say, 3s 61 a week, and the cost of an our-door pauper is or Is 6d,' the 2s lid of subsidy would reduce the cost to the parish of the in-door pauper to 7d, against Is or Is 6d for the out-door pauper. Such a system would afford an inducement to prefer in-door to out-door relief. It had been objected to his pro- posal that, if carried out, it would involve the necessity of more vexatious interference on the part of the central authority, and thus weaken the system of local Government, and also that it would involve greater laxity of expenditure. He denied both propositions. With regard to the one, work- houses were already inspected, and there would be no new inspection and, with regard to the other, any laxity of expenditure would be more apparent under the proposed system than under the present system, for an increase from 3s 6d to 4s 6d would not appear so great as from 7d to Is 7d. It was not, however, so much from a desire to save the rates that his attention had been drawn to this subject from regard to the very demoralising effect of the present system of administering out- door relief, and in consequence of the manner in which it pressed upon the poorest portion of the working population. The chairman said that he did not like the idea of receiving aid from the Government in the way suggested by Mr Rathbone, although Mr ilathbone had in his favour the argument that London had done well since the change in the law which threw in-door relief over the whole of the metropolis. If such a system was so desirable, however, why not try it at Liverpool by I the combination of the parish with the Unions of theWest Derby and Toxbeth, or at Manchester, by the combination of the Manchester, Salford, Chorlton, and Prestwich Unions? He did not think the gentlemen representing those Unions would like to be brought into such a union of Unions. He thought it would be best to trust to the growth of proper administration. They were coming back to the sound principles established in 1834 cy the Poor-Law Commissioners-that in- door relief should be the rule, and out-door relief the exception. Ultimately the resolution. "That this conference is of opinion that the practice of giving out-door relief ought to be largely restricted" was carried unanimiusly.

THE WHITECHAPEL MURDER. The brothers Wainwright were on Tuesday thought before the magistrate at the Southwark police court. Mr Thomas Bond, F.S.C.S., believed the remains discovered were those of a young woman between io and 25 years of age. In his opinion she had been dead for about a year and had borne a child. Other witnesses proved that at the time Thomas George Wainwright got the key of the house in the Borough from the offica of Mr Lewis he was still in the possession of those premises. The earrings which were found have been indentified by the wife of a carman to be a pair she threw away when she and her .husband were in charge of the establishment in White- chapel. The prisoners were again brought before Mr Henson, on Wednesday morning. The prisoners were placed in the dock at 20 minutes past twelve o'clock, Henry taking up his usual position, after a brief consultation with his solicitor, and exhibit- ing no sign of anxiety at the approaching close of the first stage of his trial. The restless eye and contracted brow of his brother, however, reflected an inward agitation which, when compared with the calm and collected appearance of Henry, would lead to the supposition that Thomas upon his trial for the more serious offence. John Lane. the father of deceased, and the witnesses Eells, Stokes, Rogers, and Taylor, were re-calied, and cross-examined, but nothing material was elicited. Edward Allen, a son-in-law of John Lane, was called to trace the buttons found in deceased's box. which were compared with those found at 215, Whitechapel Road. M. Chabot was called to prove similarity between the handwriting of Thomas Wainwright and the letter produced. This closed the case for the prosecution, and the depositions were then read over.. Both prisoners pleaded not guilty, and reserved their defence. They were then formally committed for trial. It is considered possible that Thomas may yet be charged with the substantive offence. Thomas Wainwright confesses himself the author of the letter signed E. Frieake." His counsel, in admitting the authorship just before the close of the inquiry, said he had purposely'refrained from cross-examining as to the alleged similarity of handwriting Thomas had written the letter to oblige Henry, who represented to him that the relatives were continually pestering him about the missing girl, and that their object was to extort money. Upon this explanation of 'Thomas's con- nection with the case, his counsel based his appli- cation for admission to bail, which was refused. Many of the gentlemen engaged in the case made a collection for Eiieu Wilmore, whose Care of the children has reduced her to the lowest stage of poverty, and by her care of the unfortunate children she is prevented from earning Iwr Jiving. The jnqueKt on the remains found in the pos- session of Henry Wainwright was resumed aud concluded at the vestry of St; Saviour's Church Southwark, on Thursday. No new facts were elicited, aud the jury, having heard the depositions read, at once returned af verdict that'tibe remainc :t..ij£i,1t. 94:. she was murdered by Henry Wainwright."
