CO-OPERAWB UNIVERSITIES. 1 gm-The question of education applies io ail persons, Irrespective of degree, but our present purpose is not to treat the subject as a whole, but to direct our attention to it in regard to a section only of the community. For convenience we may divide the population into three classes the wealthy, the poor, and the class that is intermediate. It is to the question of education as affect- ing the intermediate class that we specially address our- selves; for we may fairly assume that the wealthy take care of themselves, and the necessity for providing means for the education of the poor has for a long time enforced the attention of thinking men, and of late has called forth the energies both of individuals and of many organised bodies throughout the kingdom; private charity has done much; the various religious bodies have done much; and so deeply has the nation felt that its poor must not remain uneducated, that these efforts have been largely supplemented by the State. But the class between the wealthy and the indigent- composed to a great extent of persons of striving and in- dustrious habits, troubled neither with riches nor poverty, and noted for their self-reliance and independence, is that which is being fast left behind in the educational race. That they are sensible of the advantages of educa- tion is evidenced by the efforts that many put forth, and the privations to which many submit themselves in order to secure for their children a higher education than would otherwise be attainable. For the most part, however, they entrust themselves to the mercies of what are known as the Middle-class Schools. These schools, for their results, are costly; as a rule, they are notoriously defective and uncertain. But the great blot in our middle-class educational means undoubtedly is that they are not systematised. And this points to the fact that the education as given in our private middle-class schools, although more varied, is of a less thorough and practical character than that which may be obtained in our National and British Schools. The security in the latter is in its method: this causes what is done to he well done. I We are aware that competition has aone mucn to raise the character of middle-class schools, and that public test examinations, having the same object in view, have been introduced. And we do not underrate the value of other existing means, which are doing good work in their own limited way. But all fall wide of the mark. There is something more, and a great deal more required. What is wanted is an educational scheme that will suit the pecuniary circumstances of this class, that will be con- sonant with its spirit of self-reliance, and that will present the means of procuring a superior education that shall be both reliable and wise. Why may not these ends be attained by co-operation ? And with this co-operation, is it not feasible to establish a system of schools or colleges, embracing wide districts, being under able directorship, and provided with thoroughly efficient masters—in fact, a system of co- operative universities ? By making use of the co-operative principle, combined with economy in the establishment expenses, and with a large number of scholars (for instance, five thousand), there is no reason why the cost should exceed JE20 a year. Board and establishment expenses, say, £ 16; masters, say, £ 4; total, L20. A reliable arrangement, by which education with board, equal to that of the average of our middle-class schools, may be obtained at £20 per annum, would, on the face of it, be gladly welcomed. How much more so, and by what multiplied numbers, would it be embraced, if tho education were greatly superior, and might be obtained at the same cost. By the combination of numbers such an arrangement might be easily effected. The large number will ensure the low cost, and the low cost will secure the large num- ber. This scheme is one peculiarly adapted to the many. In starting there would doubtless be difficulties in pro- curing the requisite accommodation and in organising the co-operation, but these difficulties belong to the com- mencement only. At first sight such a scheme may be regardedas unprac- tical, by some deemed Utopian; but we hesitate not to say that in proportion to the reflection bestowed upon it it will be found practical. That it will do everything for education we do not pretend. That it may be a powerful engine in the promotion of education we cannot doubt. We are. sir, your obedient servants, DAVID AND JONATHAN.
■ .THE LATE HURRICANE AT ZANZIBAR.
THE LATE HURRICANE AT ZANZIBAR. We have been favoured with the following extracts from letters written to friends in England by Miss Tozer, sister of the Bishop, describing the terrible sufferings undergone by them, and the inhabitants of Zanzibar generally. The mission is in great need of help, and funds will be gladly received in its behalf. Miss Tozer writes: For 8e7en weeks after, the torrents of rain kept us all in a sort of swamp. Our very drawers filled with water. We lived in wet clothes, and slept in wet beds. No fire, ao sun, and actually no firewood for weeks. We had begun to break up boxes and planks to boil our tea-water. Num- bers of houses were washed down, so we were thankful to have shelter overhead. I can't describe to you our state of misery; and though the sun has now returned, and the lam is over, and we are dry and clean and getting on with some of the repairs, yet the re- mains are left in the sickness and death still surrounding us. The cyclone was the finale to ro many troubks. The eight months of cholera were enough to break down the strongest heart. I have done nothing but nurse since I came out.

The four or five hours of the actual hurricane were more like a state of horrible nightmare, quite unreal enough to look now like a dream in retrospective. Anything so terrible you can7t imagine as that incel8ant pour-down 7iight and day.

Everything is cooked now in gipsy style, with a fire of sticks in the quad. The other even- ing two officers came in to tea, and we mustered one tea- cup, three saucers, two mugs, and a basin. We have only a few horrible steel forks, and no spoons. Consequently, one solitary knife and fork I brought with me is a sacred possession, and considered by the boys too precious for anyone but' Bibi' (the Biahop) to use. It is washed with great care after every meal, and brought to my own room till wanted. Scissors, knives, every steel thing, is almost useless. My needles get rusted every day. It is horrid to have every article so spoilt. The oil silk lining of the Bishop's cassock had melted and run about in all direc- tions and come through to the other side. As to the needle, it is hopeless. Two stitches, and you must rub the needle with oiled rag, and not let the oil go on the purple cassock, either. I was two whole (!ays over it. It is heart-aching to open one's drawers, if you haven't done it for a week. I opened two pairs of boots packed in paper, and in a tin box, quite coated with mould. My two silk dresses, never worn since I came, and both in tin, shea: lied with mould, and several cockroach eg's aniTyomig ones in tLe folds," Yet, in spite of all this trouble, Miss Tuzer writes cheerfully of the mission The WJrl< was i;.(-,ver so hopeful and inteiest- ing."

SOUTH AUSTRALIA AND ITS RESOURCES.
SOUTH AUSTRALIA AND ITS RESOURCES. • Antrlpoi3ean" (Mr. Anthony Trollope) has another letter in tho Daily Telegraph, under the above heading. Looking at the colony on its woolly side, he says Wool! wool wool Whatever interests may for the moment be up- permost in the thoughts and minds of Australian legisla- tors and speculators, wool still remains, and for many years will remain, the staple produce of the country. It is not absolutely so in South Australia, as in the other colonies —wheat generally taking the lead in the yearly value of ine crop produced. In 1S,1 the total value of tho wool crop of South Australia was £ 1,170,378, all of which was as a matter of course, exported. The value of the wheat exported was £ 1,253,342. Nevertheless, even in South Australia, wool deserves the reiterations and the points of exclamation which I have accorded to it. South Australian wheat growers simply live comfortably and die in obscurity, but South Australian wool growers make splendid fortunes or are ruined magnificently. In some years past, down to the spring of 1871, magnificent ruin was the order of the day. Then there came a rise in the price of wool; a rise so great that during the last twelve months wool has nearly-! believe I may say quite- doubled its value; and now the splendid fortunes are again accumulating themselves. In addition to the great rise in the price of wool has come a burst of success in regard to Australian preserved meats. People at home are beginning to find that these viands are wholesome, nutritious, and cheap, and that meat without bone at 6d. a pound, even though it has been cooked at the other side of the globe, is better for poor people than meat with the bone at 10<1. a pound. The two things together have quite altered state of squatters' bank balances in this and the ot: colonies, so that men who were, at any rate, near to n are now again magnificent. The great wool-growers do not, for the most part, own the land on which their sheep are pastured. They pay rent to the colony, and h*LTfaTi m Whlch fthe,rent "h™ld be assessed has been a fertile source of political quarrel and commercial °ony- present, on leased runs in the far North, the prices vary in accordance with the nature of the soil Ud prices vary in accordance with the nature of the soil Cd. a sheep being charged on the best land, 4d. on land of the next quality, and 2d. on that of the lowest. Fourpence per head is the average rent now paid for pasturing sheep in South Australia, and the arrangement seems to give satisfaction even to the squatters. On sheep runs south of or within the line of rainfall, this rule as to the rate at which sheep are pastured does not prevail; Jmt such Southern runs either have been generally purchased so as to become the freehold properties of the wool-growers, or are attached as commonages to purchased land, and are paid for as such. I feel it to be impossible to describe with accuracy the effect upon pastoral specu- lators of a rise in the price of wool amounting to 100 per cent. The whole difference goes to profit, because no in- creased expense is entailed. Your readers may, perhaps be able to imagine the present condition of the squatters' tempers. It is, however, much for the advantage of the colony at large that this prosperity should be continued, c"n pressed.* i2tereit in Austialia. is do-
AN IRISH RITUALIST.
AN IRISH RITUALIST. A Dublin correspondent writes: At a visitation held by the Archbishop of Dublin in St. Patrick's Cathedral for the city and suburban clergy, the Rev. Richard Travers u-1 ? Bartholomew, preached. His discourse, which had a certain significance from being deli- vered on such an occasion and in presence of the Arch- bishop, treated of the revision of the Prayer Book, and was a decided though guarJell argument against revision, and in favour of the Heal Presence and ritualist doctrines in general. Of revision, he said those who believed the tenilency of proposals in that direction to be very evil ought not to be accused of blind Conservatism. He did not think that it was among the opponents of revision that persons blind to the lessons of the time would exclusively be found. The Irish Church ought to have her own un- borrowed tone of thought within Catholic limits. Shall I," said he, "dare to sketch for you the idea of a Church of half assertions and diluted doctrines, which has sur- rendered that noble comprehensiveness in which many thoughts of many minds find ungrudging repetitions as they do in God's Word, without over-care for consistency, and which has adopted that poor state of ^compre- hensiveness in which every th#Ught is cut short before* it has reached inconvenient distinctness—claiming zea- lously to be the national branch of the Church Catholic, yet unmindful of any of tho obligations of historical catholicity which such a proud claim implies—Puritan in her negations, but not so positively Puritan as to win from their characteristic religious life those sects to pro- pitiate whom she will have driven away, by an inevitable disruption, her own most faithful sons—obliged to see half-hostile missionaries coming to correct her, the re- presentatives of that Church <> movement whose hearty friendship she would not accept when she might—preyed on upon the one side by the Church of Rome, to whom she leaves the proud claim to be the sole witness in the land for mighty tenets whose vitality has stood the test of nineteen centuries—preyed on upon the other by Plymouthism and its kindred sects, which follow her as Anabaptism followed the Reformers." With reference to the Real Presence, Mr. Travers said: If reasonable and spiritual men must explain all the great sayings concerning the presence and action in the Sacraments as metaphors, why not also explain all the sayings about Christ's union with His people and His life in them as metaphors, in order to reduce Him, as you have done His Sacrament, to a remembrance instead of a present reality ? I say that socianism is true. Religious men are desiring now to carry out the assimilation of our Church to Swiss Protestanism; they may succeed, but they will find that it is too late in the world's history to establish the Swiss Protestantism of Zwingle and Calvin—the Pro- testantism which has so thoroughly shaken off sacer- dotalism as to have cast off with it the very idea of a Church, the definite value of either Church ordinaries or Church doctrines, the sense that man needs any teacher or any spiritual help beyond that which he finds in his own individual intellect and soul.

CASTING OF THE STATUE OF THE LATE PRINCE CONSORT.—The bronze equestrian statue of the late Prince Consort, to be erected upon the Holborn Viaduct by the City Corporation, has been successfully cast at the Eccles- ton Foundry, near Victoria Station. Mr. C. Bacon, the artist who has designed and modelled the statue, was pre- sent on the occasion, together with Mr. Under-Sheriff Cros- ley, Mr. Under-Sheriff Perkins and Mrs. Perkins, Mr. ex- Sheriff Cottrell, Messrs. Henry Lee, F.R.S., Mark Twain, and numerous members of the Court of Common Council, the assemblage of on-lookers being graced with the presence of a large number of ladies. The mould was placed in a huge structure of iron called a flask, within the walls of which it lay embedded in sand. The legs and head of the horse and the rider had been cast previously, and were now fitted against the mould with the bare edges touching the main body, in order that the fusion might take place on their coming into contact with the hot metal. On the right of the door was the blast furnace, where the copper was being melted, and on the left were the two air furnaces, in which the alloy or white metal, consisting of zinc and tin, was undergoing a similar process in two crucibles. The hour fixed for the casting was four o'clock, and all being ready by that time, the Plug wag withdrawn from the blast furnace, and the liquid <»pper wtt decanted off into a crane ladle, an enormous «wudron capabie 0f holding more than two tons, which had had *2?u»ly well heated.

THE FREXCH TREATY. Lord Enfield's circular to the Chambers of Commerce, 0^ 7e7^learly worded' completely confirms, the Standard, the apprehensions we havo expressed s to the character of the new Treaty of Commerce with t ranee. e have asked in vain of the organs of the Go- v, n what they meant when- they said that fnntin, f fv Ver^ent offered to put England upon the OQ mg of the most favoured nation, and we have declared our conviction that the clause as embodied in the Treaty- the pretended cia-ise," as M.

Mr. Mason, in the name of ie lanchester cotton manufacturers, protested that the compensatory duties would practically prevent any ex- port of English cotton goods to France. What chance will English manufacturers have in the French market, unless they can smuggle their goods through Switzerland, when a bounty is given to their German competitors ? We repeat the opinion that the rew Treaty-for we must speak of it as a treaty, no hope remaining that the agree- ment, settled in principle, will not be signed this week or the next-is a great triumph for M. Thiers, a great injury to English manufacturers, and a great disgrace to Mr. Gladstone and his colleagues. TELEGRAPH TO AUSTRALIA. Another grand peaceful triumph of science and civilisa- tion, exclaims the Daily News, was finally accomplished on Monday. England and Australia were joined hand in hand by the Telegraphic Cable, and Mr. Francis S. Dutton, the Agent-General of South Australia in London, received a communication to that effect from Adelaide, dated an hour after noon. Almost simultaneously a message from the Mayor of Adelaide was received by the Lord Mayor of London, expressing those loyal and friendly feelings which happily bind the colonies to the mother country. The result of placing the Government and people of England in immediate and instant contact with those great and growing communities, cannot fail to be most advantageous to the interests both of the mother country and of her children at the Antipodes. Every year the commercial relations between England and Australia are becoming more important, and the Australian interests which have their central representation in the City," are attracting more and more the capital and enterprise of our money market. The completion of this telegraphic line will be a boon to many families and households, sepa- rated, but not divided, by the circuit of the globe; and the cable will do more than colonial societies or con- ferences to preserve unbroken the chain of natural affection and hereditary sympathy which should unite the scattered, but not sundered, branches of the great family that strikes its roots in English earth. THE ENGLISH NAVY. The Telegraph considers that the shriek of alarm raised respecting our navy is groundless. The Admiralty has not forgotten that a maritime State must keep abreast with every other Power, and never fails to adopt improve- ments. The last two years have been occupied in bring- ing forward the skirmishers of the navy, without which commerce would find heavy, deep-draughted ironclads of small avail, and these huge flooting fortresses themselves, for lack of information, would be deprived of considerable offensive power. Not that the liners have been neg- lected. On the contrary, they have made some pro- gress towards completion. There never was less cause than there is at this moment to raise a cry of alarm. We have not merely squadrons which no other Power could face with any prospect of success, but we have seamen at least the equals in courage of their fore- fathers and superior in most other respects. Mr. Reed's onset looks vastly like the preface to a Parliamentary attack from the left of the Speaker's chair, as well as a display of ill-concealed vindictive personal feeling. After all, we must, like our ancestors seventy years ago, rely upon that breed of men who have never failed this island in time of necessity; nor, while we furnish the requisite ships and weapons, need we cease to rely with the old confidence on the sons of those who rode the seas with I?lake and broke up every hostile combination under Col- lingwood and Nelson. THE FRENCH ELECTIONS. The Pall Mall Gazette considers that the bad side of the recent French elections is twofold—the number of abstentions and the action of the Conservative party. As to the first it was not to be expected that a disease of long standing would be cured in a day. Twenty years of political stupor must leave traces long after the awakening has come. Whether it is from fear of committing themselves to a cause which is unpopular now or may chance to become unpopular by-and-by, or from a fixed disbelief that political action can avert any evil or bring about any good, or from absolute indifference to anything which does not immediately concern their trade or their land, there is evidently a very large propor- tion of French electors who do not care, and who, at all events, give no indication that they care ;what becomes of their country. It is true that under all circumstances nothing else could be looked for, but the need of a change is not affected by tho fact that it could only be brought about by a miracle. So long as the abstentions at elections remain as numerous as they are now they will constitute a constant danger to France, because they will shew that behind the voters there is a large reserve of strength, which, though deaf to political considerations, may yet be utilised by adventurers who know the secret of arousing its fears or exciting its hopes. SYMPATHY AND LAW. We lately took occasion, says the Globe, to comment upon the very injudicious letter written by Mr. Gladstone in answer to an appeal for the release of the Fenian prisoners, and we return to the subject now because the tone adopted by the Prime Minister has apparently given encouragement for grotesque exhibitions of the same sentiments in other quarters. The folly of Mr. Gladstone's words was reflected in the speeches made on Tuesday at Manchester. In the foolish remarks by Mr. Smyth, who advocates the release of the prisoners, the same spirit manifests itself in a grosser form. There is something so fascinating in the conviction of wide and all-reaching sympathies, that their possessor is glad to boast of them on every occasion, and is ever ready to plead religion and morality as his excuse. The unfortunate letter of Mr. Gladstone would hardly deserve grave censure, were it only .an uninten- tional and isolated blunder. But the spirit which pervades it has been accepted and systematised by the Government, and is approved by a large section of the community. Government has lost its firmness, and has come to let natural sympathy with every form of evil take precedence of the necessary remedy. We are lost in tears and pity when we should be busy at punishment. Sympathy and law are hopelessly confused, and so neither takes its fit place in the statesmanship of the country. The effect of such policy must be disastrous, and under its influence the nation oscillates between passionate severity and weak and pitiable sentimentalism. If the country submits to have its police administered on the principles, and in the language of second-rate poetry, it must not expect security or good government. Law and sympathy should be kept everywhere distinct, and in carrying out the penalties of the one, it is false and dangerous to overflow with the sentimentalism of the other.

A" SUBSTITUTE FOR THE 'CAT.-An ingenious writer in the Pall Mall Gazette, broaches the idea that the use of the cat, so objectionable in the eyes of Mr. Peter Taylor and his kind, might bo advan- tageously replaced, as a means of punishment for garotters and other brutal malefactors, by the employment of galvanism as a corrective agency. Ho says: Every one knows that a galvanic current of any force can be passed through the human frame, from a degree which is hardly perceptible, to one which resembles the breaking of the bones; or the sensation, acsording to the mode of application, may be a gentle tickling, or one nearly simulating the touch of hot iron. But this is only a part of its merits: it is absolutely harmJefss, Bay, positively beneficial in many cases, as its frequent medical use testifies. Further, it can be used and applied exactly in the re- quired degree, and no more. The moment it is judgfed -that the criminal has suffored enough he can be liberated from all trace of pain that very instant. No "lacerated flesh," no "livid weals" will be left to make Mr. Peter Taylor or any other gentleman sick; no brutal- ising of warders or officials will take place under my system."

MONEY MARKET.—WEDNESDAY. Although much activity cannot be said to exist, there is more business goiug forward in the Stock and Share 3fitrkets than has been the case for some time past. Owiujr to the absence cf any unfavourable rumours with legardto the Money Market, coupled with the agreeable change in the weather and the closing of heavy "ber" engagements, a rather buoy- ant feeling prevails, and values have an apparently higher tendency. EnglishBailway Shares are inactive demand on the favourable trariic returns published this this morning on behalf of heavy-priced lines, and a general advance ranging from 1 to 1 per cent. has taken place in prices. Foreign Bonds exhibit strength, but the upward movements in this market are not ef material importance.

-------ZORRILLA'S SPEECH ON…
ZORRILLA'S SPEECH ON THE ADDRESS. The Spanish papers publish the full text of Zorrilla's great speech on the reply to the speech from the throne- It appears to have been one of his most powerful addresses, and fully maintains his reputation for eloquence. He examined the claims of the three opposing parties in suc- cession. and inquired what were their leading principles, and what their chances of success. Beginning with the Republicans, he asked them what they would do for liberty that had not already been done? What could they give besides the full liberty of the press and of the tribune, the right of demonstration, the right of public meeting, and full freedom of conscience ? If, four years ago, when many of the Republicans were in exile, and others suffer- ing from sympathy with them, they had been told that within so brief a time they should have religious liberty, civil marriages, liberty of education, and individual rights, on the condition of accepting the Monarchy, presided over by a Prince who accepted a Constitution under which all parties might freely develop themselves, whose consort was a model for wives and mothers and whose children were educated like those of the middle ranks of the people-what would the Republicans of that day havo answered? Would they have refused these liberties for the hope of having a Republic ten or twenty years hence ? Would they have been less patriotic than Garibaldi fighting under Victor Emmanuel for the unity of Italy, than Klapka recognising the Austrian Empire in order to secure the autonomy of Hungary, than Mr. Bright forming part of a Whig Ministry, in order to compel the English aristocracy to accept the popular ad- vances they rejected? When the Monarchists in France had abandoned all their hopes for the time being in order to give France peace, was it too great a sacri- fice for the Republicans in Spain to sur- render the form to save the principles? Did they think liberty in Spain was so secure that they could consolidate it alone and unaided by proclaiming the Republic ? If they intended to change the state of things by constitutional means, they ought to repress all those displays of force which were carried on under their flag. If they intended, on the contrary, to resort to force, they ought to withdraw formally from the Cortes after the example of the Progressists before the Revolution. Turning to the Moderates, as tho supporters of Prince Alfonso call themselves, Zorrilla said that if they only intended to seek their objects pacifically he should sleep quietly, for he was certain they would die of old age without finding any suc- cessors. But supposing them successful, and Prince Alfonso enthroned, what constitution would he govern with? What would h% keep and what would he surrender of the changes effected by the Revolution? tracing the political career of the Moderate party from 1845 to 1867, ZorrilJa asked the Moderates in what quarter they looked for support, and assured them they would not find it in the army, the Church, the aristocracy, the middle classes, or the people. He then asked the Conservatives the mean- ing of their name. Were they Monarchists, and if so, did they support the present dynasty or abandon it? Were they Constitutionalists, and if so what constitution did they uphold ? Were they Conservative of the results of the Revolution or of any other state of things ? For his own part he believed the term Conservative to be merely a convClllent shelter for politicians who had no following, and state men who had no prestige. They professed to re- present the Conservative classes, but it was not very clear who those classes were. The Conservative party consisted of some generals of more or less celebrity and courage, .many brilliant orators, and some able journalists, but besides these, there was nothing but officials who wanted promotion, and a troop of friends, who supported them because they did not think the Radicals would keep office. If there were others let them come boldly forward and shew themselves. He could not admit that the valour of General Serrano, the grandiloquence of Bias Rosas, or the talent of Senor Sagasta were sufficient to form a party, because a party required ideas, leaders, and followers. Without these parties were nothing more than actions, and disappeared like the scattered leaves before the autumn winds. Having thus disposed of all his antagonists, Zorrilla touched briefly on the policy of the Government in regard to the principal topics of the day, nd ended by appealing to all parties to unite in support- ing the dynasty of Savoy and the Constitution of 1869, op whose maintenance dopended the salvation afcliberty.

The proprietoi has in hIS possession hundreds of testimonials bearing witness to their etneacy. Out of many the two following have been selected T Ballintemple, near Cork, Sept. 1, 1868. John Kaye, Esq.—Dear Sir,—My wife has been suffering from a very sore leg for nineteen years. During that time it has cost me over P,120 for different doctors, some of whom gave her case up as hopeless. She was reduced to nearly a skeleton. I got some of Kaye's Worsdell's Pills, and after she took about lis. worth of them she was completely cured, and is now in good health and quite strong. It is the most astonishing cure ever known in this neighbourhood. I shall recommend them wherever I can, to any person I hear winpipining.-(Si,-ned) JOHN BROWN." The Agent at Redruth certifies to the truth of the following case Sept. 4, 1868. "John Nicholls, of Illogan, near Redruth, Cornwall, suffered severely from burning pains iti the stomach and difficulty of breathing. In consequence of this lie had to leave work for many weeks. He was recommended to take Kaye's Worsdell's Pills. Before he had taken one box, he was completely cured, resumed work, and is now again a strong, healthy man. He says he will never te without them.
