AK inquiry of noordinwy importance has just been concluded by Mr. Farnail, under tfc e direction of tie Poor Law Commissioners. The object of this official inquiry was to ascertain tb e real m o( the death of Timothy Daly, an In, A Uko„ and whether, in connection with, blar ne was t0 b„ at. 9»rf nlT0?heS°0rLaW »«<«»• On the 28th of October last, Timothy Da,y_who> up to this time was a healthy nun o f k4e earning about four shiffings day^btairirf an order for the attendance of t he medicaI offlcer of the Holborn Union, who, up yisiting him, found that be was s^fering frc m a sttack of r uuiiia isin, 'and had him removed on the follow- »« £ ^th J ^ie *n^rmar^ >vhere the medical officer .e workhouse, Mr. Norton, took his case in r^uarge. On. the 14th o December, having spent the interval in the inf mnary under Mr. Norton's care, Daly removed to a lodging-house in the neighbourhood. Th1 .s removal was at his own wish, or that ..of his wife. In this move the bounds of the I-folborn ai strict were crossed, and on the 15th of Decent 1 'r he was visited by Mr. Lowne, the officer of the Farrington Dispensary, upon whom he had obtained an order for attendance. Such was the condition in which Mr. Lowne found him from bed-sores that, in the course of a week, he obta ined admission for him into St. Bartholomew's I tospital. On the 22nd of Decem- ber he was broug jht in a cab to that institution. On the 23rd ofD 3cember ne was dead. The cause of T 'imothy Daly's death was weak- ness resulting fi om bed-sores. The allegation against the autho rities of the Holborn Union is that the treatment which this poor man received while under their c. are was the original cause of, as well as a subseque nt aggravation of, these sores. Th e protracted inve stigation, which has been this sree k brought to a c. lose, supplies us with sufficient lata upon which to < ometoa conclusion. Let us irst d, ispose of two I joints in the above narrative. "he tWI 0 removals si ibsequent to Daly"s entering le HolL lom Infirmar, yare undoubtedly to be con- dered as: materially 1 tending to an aggravation of Ie sores.. The blam le of this removal from the olborn Infirmary to a lodging-house cannot be irly lait 1 to the charg e of any person except the ceased and his wife, although we must say that, the ev idence given I )efore Mr. Farnail, we can- find t ,hat any strong I resistance was offered by inedit jal authorities. Upon the second removal \j a^fTo m the lodging- house to St. Bartholomew's ,spital, passes the fol lowing severe criticism Je not only ought nc 't to be removed, but he ght not to have been moved across the room." W3.1 be I sufficient to s tate that the person who used th is removal was Mr. Lowne, the resident 'edical c 'fficer of the Fa rrington dispensary. The Lost imp ortant question.. however, to be settled oncerns a date prior t< ) the removal to St. Bar- tiolomev. 's Hospital. W rhat treatment did Daly eceive ir L the Holbom I nfirmary, and was it the jauseof i iliose sores which ended so fatally? The tact of a man having bee t-sores is of itself insuffi- cient to ] jrove previous ill- treatment. But medical testimon; 1 has been givei 1 to prove conclusively that Da: ly's sores made n iore progress than was consister it with proper tre atment. To quote Dr. Andrews words, If, throi lghout Daly's illness, he had beer i well sustained bj r stimulants and other sustainii ig remedies, the be i-sores would not have made st,.ch progress." The conclusion arrived at is simply t ihat the treatmentw hich Daly experienced in Holb< >rn infirmary caused his death, by not stop- pingthe progress of the sores i tnd supplying sufficient stamina to prevent his gr. idually sinking from weakness. In the evidence we find that though Daly arrived in the afternooi t-cf one day, he did not get anything except brea( I and butter and tea until the following day, becao se, indeed, he arrived after the proper dinner hour and during his so- journ in the Dispensary he wa .s nursed by "unpaid paupers." Why he was permitted to leave that. institution, "Idy being in a frightful state from bed-sores, Ws b, stion which the medical officer has failed lea,que.ty to answer. Indeed, Mr. Norton's tor" natter is wrapped in mystery. The part in the 1.. an alarming state left the Infirm- patient in such 'ay. The medical officer, when ary on Wednesa, v such a thing was allowed, is asked to explain hov ^blic that he saw the man only able to tell the pi, Friday previous and the some time between the left." As a medical Wednesday on which he r Law rules to keep officer, he is bound by the POt.. e his visits this, a book containing a registry OIA. '1e boys at the however he left to be done by tl. Lbe book can "Workhouse school, and declares that u "at he has not be relied upon, admitting thereby fa 0f the wilfully violated the letter and the spiru. law under which he held appointment. -'at It is only justice to this gentleman to state wk are his duties and his salary. He has an average of 120 patients, forty of whom require daily at- J ,tendance. His salary is £100 per annum, out of g which about X20 has to be spent by him in e. drugs," leaving his pay £ 80 per annum Con- sidering that he accepted these terms, however, t there is no excuse for his not having fulfilled the SJ duties which he undertook. 7 Taking into consideration the salary paid the I medical oflicer-the duties he is directed to per- form-the fact that the guardians have remonstra- ted with him on the excessive amount of wine which he has seen fit to order for patients-and the regulations which could allow a man like Daly, in such a condition, to be so long in the House without proper food, we must consider the guard- ians to be morally accountable for that pauper's death. Here is an institution supported by au- thority, and supposed to be a refuge for the home- less and the sick, where a wretched, niggardly economy provides beds which are not long enough, nurses unpaid," and medical men at an salary which is an insult to their profession. It is time that economy" in the management of a union were put a stop to everywhere, for it is not con- fined to the Holborn District. It is a shame and a disgrace to a parish in a Christian country that, through the miserly parsimony of a board of guardians, a poor man should be let perish of bed-sores and exhaustion."

ENGLISH people are in the habit of flattering themselves that they enjoy not only the reputation but the reality of the most perfect personal freedom which is consistent with the maintenance of order, the enforcement of law, and a due respect for the rights and properties of others. We have many criminals, but, upon the whole, the law is faithfully executed and honestly applied, and the chief improvement to the safety of person and property which we have to look for is from the improvement of the moral feeling, and, perhaps, of the material condition of our people. It seems curious that one of the few reservations and deductions required in this broad statement affects a certain branch of the Christian Church. For the most part the people sympathise with the law, and the police are only the leaders and aiders of a community anxious above all things for the detection of crime. But there is one section of the population—happily, a very limited one-in which different views- prevail. The Ultramontane Roman Catholic clergy cannot possibly understand our insistance upon the absolute equality of religious sects and in their zeal to extend their doctrines they occasionally venture upon acts of very doubtful legality, and of still more question- able morality. What they would do, and what their Church would do, if we allowed them free scope, the Pope's recent denunciation of Pro- testantism and toleration sufficiently proves. The Irish Ultramontanists have, indeed, just conde- scended to use what they doubtless thought the jargon of the heretics when they complained of the illiberality" of those who oppose their claims and pretensions; but neither they nor their English colleagues have any knowledge of, still less any respect for, those great principles of justice which compel us to tolerate even their intolerance. It might be supposed that kidnapping a father- less child from its mother would be an act so re- volting to all natural affections that a zealot or a fanatic, or even a man whose policy it might be to create zealots and fanatics, would avoid so odious a crime. But this would hardly do justice to the audacity of the class to which we are now referring The case connected with the Brompton Oratory has been before the public for a fortnight, and it is impossible to deny that the more it is investiga- ted the more scandalous does the conduct of one of the "Fathers" appears. It will be remembered that in the first instance a woman named M'Dermott complained to one of the London magistrates of the disappearance of her daughter. Mrs. M'Dermott, who was originally a Protestant, became a convert to the Romish Church a few years ago, and had attended the chapel at the Brompton Oratory with her family-two aons and a daughter. More recently, she and her two sons had again become Protestants, but the daughter, if she outwardly conformed to the change, continued to communi- cate with the monks and one at least of the latter resolved on separating her from her heretical parent. After keeping up a secret correspondence with the girl for more than a twelvemonth, when she reached her sixteenth year, and all fears of the law were at ^nd end, a holy youth calling himself Father Bowden induced the girl to leave her mother's roof, and this brand snatched from the burning" was safely conveyed to a Romanist convent, the name of which has not transpired. Such was the tale as it originally appeared, and if nothing worse has since- been added, it is a suffi- ciently revolting specimen of that Romanist policy which is especially abhorrent to English feeling. We imagine, however, that the subsequent ex- posures will be deemed still more abominable. When Father Bowden made his appearance in the police-court to explain his conduct, his defence chiefly regted on the bad character of Mrs. M'Dermott. The woman, he said, was a notorious drunkard and profligate, who had abandoned her children on more than one occasion, and he pro- duced a newspaper to show that she had even been imprisoned in the House of Correction for a gross offence of that kind. Through this neglect, he al- leged, the children had been allowed to fall into bad courses, and the eldest boy, although only thirteen- years of age, had already become so abandoned and vicious that it was simple charity to remove the girl from the contamination of such companions. This defence was so plausible that the woman's complaint seemed to fall at once to the ground and there were probably few who read the oily statement of the Father whom did not doubt that Mrs. M'Dermott was an infamous impostor. The candid admission of the Father that he had for many months kept up a clandestine correspondence with the girl was certainly rather against him, whileit may have struck some readers that the priest was remarkably indifferent to the fate of the boy, though so solicitous about the girl. But as his general statement was assumed to be correct, it was generally held to put an end to the case. Happily for the credit of poor Mrs. M'Dermott she has friends who voluntarily come forward to give their testimony on her behalf. Her landlord and persons whom have been her neighbours for the last eighteen years declare that she is a woman of irreproachable moral character, sober, hard- working, and affectionate towards her children. It is, however, a fact that she was once committed to prison for a week but the explanation is of the most astounding character. It is asserted that a Roman Catholic police inspector, named Tarlton, entered her house by the aid of a Roman Catholic neighbour about four o'clock in the morning, though there was no sufficient reason for this procedure, and that it can only be accounted for by nresutning that it was effteced",for the purpose obtaining possession of the children and de- L ling the mother. Although the neighbours id that Mrs. M'Dermott was then, as now, a ante*. pectable woman, Inspector Tarlton alleged magistrates that she was a drunken, tefore tbv ?ter. an(j Upon this false statement, <2 3ra'" ^de in the hearing of the accused," ^not even aQd 8enteneea to hard labour, he was convifii It is another curious feature in the case that the newspaper which Father Bowden produced the other day as containing a report of this conviction was "so long as it remained in circulation an organ of "the Oratory." Sometime after this strange trans- action an attempt was made by some of the Oratory priests to consign Mrs. M'Dermott to a lunatic asylum and thus obtain possession of the children. To effect this purpose one of thefFathers made a proposal to her eldest boy to assist in carry- ing out the scheme, first obtaining a pledge of secrecy from the child by the gift of money. Finally this boy whom Father Bowden characterised as a perfect reprobate, turns out to have been suborned by Father Bowden himself throughout the last twelvemonth for the purpose of carrying on a secret correspondence between the Oratory and the poor girl who has just disappeared It is impossible that the case can remain in its present state. A letter in a London contemporary of Tuesday announces that Mrs. M'Dermott is prostrated by the cruel blows which have been struck at her, and that she is not expected to sur- vive for many days. If the Fathers of the Oratory are wise, they will not suffer her to leave the world before the case is thoroughly investigated and the frightful charges made against them dis- pelled. It is surely incredible that the story of Mrs. M'Dermott's friends (who, by the way, are headed by a Colonel Brockman) can be substan- tiated. But if there is no sign from the Fathers, the pnblic will now know what to, think. It will be evident that the popular apprehensions of monastic institutions and Romanist systems of proselytism have not in any way exaggerated the evil and the duty of the country will be clear.

Williams to see who they were. P.C.

Price was much more in- toxicated than Phillips, and was very abusive, Price was not in a fit state to be trusted with the horses he had, and if Phillips was as bad he would have been compelled to detain them.
