Dr . M * Nelle seconded the proposition , which was carried . Mr . J . Cropper proposed , and the Rey James Martineau ( Unitarian minister ) seconded a resolution to the effect tfi&t , in cases where recoverable , the parents be required to pay for the maintenance of their children at the proposed reformatory e&ta * blisb . n 4 en . ta . The Bey . Pr , Ckurat , coadjutor Boman Catholic Bishop in Liverpool , supported ihe . proposition , which was carried unanimously .
A petition to both Houses of Parliament , embodying the resolutions , was adopted ; and it was decided that the Earl of Harrowby be requested to present the one to the Upper House , and the members for the borough the one to the Lowe * House . The Glasgow meeting , also attended by men of all parties , equally insisted on the necessity for meeting the evil * of juvenile criminality by reformatory institutions . These are great steps onward .
The Bev . Rector Campbell , after entering into a statement showing the extent of juvenile crime in the country , and to the expense it entailed upon the nation , moved a resolution to the effect : " That the large increasein tne / amount of juvenile destitution , ignoranqe , * nd vice existing in this country , demands the most serious consideration of a Christian people , producing an amount of positive and professional crime for which the present prison discipline lias been found inadequate- 4 © remedy , and that it is therefore necessary to provide additional means to this end . " He expressed himself in favour of the
establishment of reformatory schools , observing that he saw no reason why the religious difficulty should stand in the way , for every essential truth might be taught kn them without raising the opposition of any = section of the religious portion of th © comraunity . Mr . W , prown , M . P ., in seconding the resolutipcn , expresee *! an opinion that the most efffectrvfl m «? de of meeting the evil would be by the estabUshuxient of reformatory hulks at every seaport , ' in which , tha juvenile delinquents might be trained « s seamen , and of reformatory schools in inland towns . The Rev . Mr . Carter , chaplain of the Liverpool gaol , in supporting the motion , for the purpose of showing the working of the present
system of dealing with , juvenile criminals , traced the history of a boy who was first committed to the borotJgh gaol fl > r throwing stones . Before entering wijbhjbQ the , precincts of his prison-house , he raanif ( 6 s , tea great fear at being sent to prison ; but on his admission all fear left him . He had since then been in gaol about a dozen times for various offences , the last tim ^ t being on no less a charge than that of murder . If ; continued the chaplain , that boy had been arrested : in- his course in time , and not have been committed to gaol from time to time , he would in all probability have been saved , and a great expense to the country would have been prevented . The resolution wa » carried unanimously .
Mr . Horsfall , M . I ? ., moved the second resolution , to the effect , " That the establishment of reformatory institutions in lieu cf prisons for children convicted of _ any offence is desirable ; and that it is the opinion © f this meeting that no measure will be effective or satisfactory to the country which does not also provide for the better training and protection of those children . " Mr . Mansfield , stipendiary magistrate , seconded the resolution , which was supported by the Bey . C . M . Birrel ( Scotch Baptist ) , and carried .
Mr . Joseph Pollock , judge of the Liverpool County Court , moved a resolution to the effect , that reformatory schools for juvenile delinquents be estuhlishedl with the sanction of Government , und that they be supported by the public I ' uikIh . The Kev

On Wednesday last many of the highest names in the political world , in letters , and in art , were present to render homage to the career and conduct o € the great citizen , of Venice , by ofreiing the last respects to his departed child . Among these admirers and friends there were many who had personally known and appreciated the gentle and beautiful character , and : the exalted qualities of Emilia Manin . Throughout the dreary hours of her exile , doubly embittered by affliction , she had but one thought , and that was Venice ! Only a few hours before death , when she was already ^ speechless , she mutely asked for a

The foUowiug Is an extract from the last number of THW WBSanttmSTKR RBYIEW : " The author , who does not give hia name , seexus to liavo th « most perfect f ^ railiarity with Parliament and Parliamentary matters i ao , d , indeed , appears to haye set in the House of Commons every night during last session . His observations there , and his rellecfclons on what he saw and heard , he published from week to week in tho form of newspaper articles in the 'Leadoer . ' The papers , as tliey first appeared , attracted a great deal of notice in London , both from tho freshness of their information , so different from tho matter served up in the ordinary Parliameiitary reports , ara < l from tho wit and stinging sarcasm with which they commented on ( ho men and the events of the day . " Never before has the public had such an opportunity of seeing things &s they actually are in Parliament , and of kciowlna : the physiognomy and habits of that great an .-.

gorical , explanations" demanded by $ EM . Ki ^ selerT and BmuQw . " To demand , " he writes , " of England and France to define the nature of the action which they intend to exercise in the Black Sea is a puerility or a dupBeity . An action w * icb is aelf-demoostrative has no need or definition . The definition weuld he worth leaa than the demonstration . Russia is , perftctly well awar « that the Anglo-JF * ench squad roa-en-- tered the Black Sea after the disA 9 tev of Sinope , first , to preveat tU « Russian squadron giving a second repjesentatioa of a spectacle in which tjre and oktod played the taost sinister part ; and secondly , to opposje , if necessary , force by force . Russia knows well enoug h , that the entry of the Anglo-French squadron into the Black Sea is war . . . unless Russia , daring all as long as she is the strongest , dares nothing as soon as sh « finds herself th « weakest . If su « h a demand be not a puerility , it can only be a duplicity , a aew meansof gaining one month more , duringwhich Nicholas trusts that General Qortschnkion ^ having receivedreinforcemente , will be « bl 9 to root the Turkish army and enforce upon Omar Faj&a the conditions rejected by the Pi van . What vyould what c&uM , Prance and Great Britain do then ? After the Sjnope disaster , these two Powers had it in their power to order their fleets , anchored at the mouth of the Black Sea , to wei gh anchor ; but after a disaster which would be on land -what the Sinope affair was at sea , time would fail to-France and England , if they had the will , to send an expeditionary corps Vy land to the succour of the Turks after a decisive defeat . It would only remain to France and Great Britain to accept the Jfrit <^ a > mpHy and to persuad * thfr Porte : to xegigua . tioa , " gojch is * I will not say the probable , hut the evident ^ calcjfc&tjon . of the Empeicor . NiohQla * , adroitly served hy An&fem ., who perhaps lulls , and soothes . France and England . " The who . le question now is to know if"it becomes France and Great Britain to accept the situation which Russia , and Austria are preparing for them before Bu > ope and before History . " ' Let it not be forgotten that wijile Downing-street and the Tuilerfes are exchanging mystifications with MM . de Brttnow and KisaeUefi ^ Admirals Dundas and Hamelin are scouring tlie Black Sea vrith . impatient erews and douhle ^ ahotted guaa , and that a good look out ia being kept for "Russian ships .

If our experience of Russian tactics has not taught us to treat this new " moderation" for what it is worth , Russia deserves to accomplish all her purposes , and to retain all her material guarantees . Tho trick of gaining time is no now phase in a Russian question . All tliis while Kuropeis suffering'and paralysed : Turkey is exhausting her energies ia the struggle of selfdefence .
