PROF. ROBT BALL ON IBE MOON AND HER VOLCANOES." The first of a series of scientific lectures for tbe people, promoted by the Uilchrist Educational Trust, and given under tbe auspices of tbe York University Extension Society, took plsce on Friday evening in the Festival Concert Room, York, when Professor Robert Ball, F.R.8., Astronomer Boyal for Ireland, delivered a lecture on the subject, Tbe Moon and her Volcanoes." It will doubtless be remembered tbat the lectures given under these auspices last winter were characterised by large attendances and the fact tbat a crowded audience assembled last evening augurs well for the success of tbe present course. Mr. S. W.
Nobth, who occupied the chair, in introducing Professor Ball, observed tbat those presaat had met to commence tbe second course oi the Gilchrist lectures in this city. He was sure that it mutt be a feeling of satisfaction to those who had taken the trouble to promote those lectures to find so large an audience as had gathered around them tbat evening, and it spoke well for the rising intelligence of this ancient city tbat so many persons were found willing to assemble together under such circumstances. They were very much indebted to the trustees of the Gilchrist Trust for having allowed them to have a second course, for be believed it was tar from usual for tbe trustees to afford two courses of lectures ia succession to tbe same town. Next year they would not have lectures under tbe Gilchrist Trust, but he believed that ths promoters of the University Extension Scheme intended to provide a somewhat similar course during the ensuing winter. (Applause.) Professor Ball, who was well received, said that if some great giant were to steal the moon the circumstance would firet be made known by ths fact that the tides, which were of so much importance to maritime nations, would almost entirely cease, as they were regulated by tbe action of the moos, though the sua had something to de with them.
Having described tbe value of the moon to navigators in helping them to correct their cbrocomelerajbe said he now proposed to glance at what we knew with regard to the moon as well as its movements, and also to the various features which it possessed. He then explained the circles rouud which the earth and other planets move, as well as bow both the earth and the moon revolved rouud the sun once every 365 days. Tbe moon, he said, seemed to be specially appointed to tbe earth, and was constantly close to her; it was indeed the earth's closest neighbour in tbe wbole heavens, though the next comet might possibly come closer to her. All the other bodies in tbe heavens were hundreds of times farther away from tbe moon than we were. The moon had no light of its own it merely shone because sunlight shone upon it, and it passed through various changes every twenty-eight days, and computation had shown that it would take sixty-four moons to make one earth.
If the earth and moon were to be weighed it would be found tbat it would take eigbty-one moons to balance the earth, because the substances contained in the latter body were heavier than was the case with regard to tbe other one. Prof. Ball then gave an inter LOCAL AND DISTRICT. TOEK Aim VIOWITY. Sir.

On being pat to the rots it was decided unanimously in the affirmative. A discussion ensued relative to the forthcoming election of four members of the Local Board. Mr. J.

Several others spake in a similar strain, and it was ultimately resolved that they should in future be requested to do so. L1 11 sustained Chasgbb by ths Pouci. At the Doncaster West Biding Police-court, on Saturday, Thos. Sanderson, farmer, and Charles Hanks, harse breaker, Askern, were charged with being drunk.
(The evidence was that the defendants were seen at Askern the Wednesday before, that both were drunk and making a disturbance, and that Sanderson was so drunk that the policeman, Mawford, went home with him. One of the witnesses for the prosecution admitted that the officer did not go home with Sanderson, and denied that the defendants were making a disturbance. The witnesses for the defence and the defendants themselves denied the charge entirely, and the magistrates dismissed the ease. Following this came a charge against Thomas Baper. farmer, Wroot, for being drunk while having the charge of a horse and cart.
The evidence of the policeman was that about a quarter to twelve the Saturday night before he found Baper asleep going towards Wroot. Hs stopped the horse, the reins being on the ground, and getting into the cart found that Baper was asleep and diunk. He accompanied him to Wroot, and on the way asked him his name, and Baper twice gave him wrong names. Baper also offered him money to say nothing of the affair, and witness refusing to take this Baper threatened to knock him out of the cart. The defence was that Baper had been working hard, and being tired fell asleep.
He was, however, not drunk. He admitted that the policeman gat into the cart, but supposing that he had got in for a ride, he did not object. On the way the police ma 1 asked him his name, and it was true that in chaff he gave him two wrong names. When the officer, however, charged him with being drunk he indignantly denied it, and threatened to throw him out' On getting to Wroot he took the officer to a clergyman and a magistrate, Mr. The latter now said that when he taw Btper he told the officer that if he thought he was drunk he had better summon him.
Bsper (aid be was quite sober, when the policeman callt'd bim a liar. He Mr. Bowen) then told the policeman that Baper was not drunk, in reply to which the policeman said he had got sober while going borne. Thinking there was likely to be a disturbance, witness got between the two men, and eventually told the policeman he had better leave, Answering the magistrates Mr. Biwen said that Riper was not drunk, end had no appearance of having had drink, and as a greater teat he tried to ditover if the man smelt of drink, but failed to do so.
The magistrates dismissed tbe case. Wst RitiiKG Poucg. At Doncaster on Stturday, John Durdy, farmer, Barmby Dun, was fined 2. 6d. and 21s.

Therefore it had been concluded tbat there was no water. In regard to air tbe answer waa equally emphatic tbere might be some slight traces of air, but there was nothing like that bounteous atmosphere by which we were surrounded. Indeed the evidence was in favour of the absence of both air and water, and be (tbe lecturer) thought it would not be rash to say tbat tbere was no life whatever in tbe moon.

It appeared that they were members of a gang of juvenile thieves, whose atotru operowtii was extraordinarily clever. The smallest boy, by inserting his hand into the slit of a letter box, abstracted numerous letters, which ware subsequently opened, and any cheque or any other remittances discovered were taken to the drawers, with a representation that they had been found, the restoration being generally accompanied with a gratuity to the honest lad.
Oa a search being made after the detection of the crime, a large number of torn letters were discovered down a grating in the immediate vicinity af the noet-offlce. Commenting on the serious nature of the offence, the Bsnoh remanded the prisoners, pending instructions from ths Home Office. OPIMONS OF THB PHES3. Tbe Spectator says: Mr. Chameerlaia's many speeches at Newraatle-on-Tyne have shewn him in his two very different aspects as a popular politician, and as a strong and even first-rate administrative statesman.
Wo do not especially value Mr. Caain bar -lain in the former capacity. He is, indeed, never weak, but, on the contrary, clear, sensible, adroit, and even shrewd. But his speeches are without passion, and without the kind of imagination which touohes the people's heart. He does not raise his hearers and readers to a higher level as Mr.
Gladstone and Mr. Bright, and at times even Mr. Porster, do but just gives a certain aptness and Penrose of expression to the co aloe-places of popular feeling. But it is not as a popular orator that Mr. Chamberlains characteristic power really shews itself.
It is such a speech as be made on Wednesday to the shipowners of the Tyna, Tees, and Wear that we see Mr. Chamberlain at bis beat. Tbere he waa dealing with a considerable group of rather hostile critics, thoroughly versed in their own subject, ready to trip him up if he showed either ignorance or weakness, and probably watching eagerly for an opportunity of doing so. But Mr. Chamberlain not only held his own against the shipowners, but did something more.
For he must have gained their complete respect, and showed them that he knew in general what the very ablest among them had te say, and where it was insufficient for the purpose for which they advanced it. It ts in this kind of statesmanship, the statesmanship which shows itself as courage in class contests, as clearness ia practical administration, as dignity due to just self-confidence, as impartiality in judging between the rich and the poor, that Mr. Chamberlain displays his real eminence. He it a statesman who mey attain on behalf of the democracy the same kind of repute which the late Sir Robert Peel obtained on behalf of the capitalist classes. And in this kind of statesmanship be is pre-eminent one of the few high even in the first class.
Tbe Economist says: Lord Salisbury, in his speech at Dorchester on Wednesday, gave a pretty clear indication of the attitude which the Conservative leaders intend to adopt towards the forthcoming Franchise Bill. The proposed sasimilation of the suffrage in counties and boroughs ia to be met, not by a direct traverse of its wisdom and justice, but by a dilatory plea, founded on tbe time and manner of its introduction. Some of the arguments by which Lord Salisbury defended these tacUos are manifestly sophistical, others hare sufficient plausibility to commend tbem to a partisan audience, but none will carry much weight with the outside public when taken in conjunction with tbe Conservative leader's express admission, that we are near the time when there will be a considerable addition to the ejnstitnency of every county. If we are, in any ease, near that time, only the strongest and most obvious considerations of policy can justify its postponement for a day longer than is necessary. Lord Salisbury prefers to postpone the BUI until it is safe to include Ireland in it.
In other words, England and Scotland are to be put off, and content themselves with a representative system which Lcrd Salisbury acknowledges to be imperfect, in order tbat we may defer dealing with the Irish problem, which, however long we wait, sooner or later we shall have to face. Does Lord Salisbury suppose that tne temper of the Irish nousenouxers will be improved and their loyalty rekindled, by a continued denial of what they believe to be their political rights, or that they will be any more reconciled to the treatment which he proposes, because an injury is at the tame time done to the people of Great Britain 1 The Svxtut says: The attitude of the Government in the face of the Egyptian complication has become intolerable. The country ia being mads responsible for the infliction upon a defenceless people of an untold amount of suffering and misery, and no reward, no prospect of reward, is as jet visible to compensate England for the responsibility she has incurred, nor Egypt for the sufferings she has bean compelled to undergo. We went to Egypt full of professions of our good intentions towards that country, and pledged, above all tilings, to relieve its people from the evils of military despotism and civil corruption. Of course, every one knows, though, unfortunately, every one ia not honest enough to confess, that our philanthropic seal would bave carried us but a very little way, had we not believed tbat our material interests were involved.
But whether we bombarded the forts of Alexandria and fought tbe battle of Tel-el-Eebir exclusively for the benefit of the Egyptians, or with a shrewd regard for our own advantage, the conclusion is the same. Our real, no lent than our ostensible reason, imposes upon us the duty of not leaving Egypt worse than we found it. We have no right to inflict the horrors of war upon a people, we have no right to upset the whole of their administration, we have no right to cede a large portion of their territory, to leave them liable to invasion from without, and a prey to a gross system of misgovernment within, unless we can hold out hopes of speedy, complete, sod permanent amelioration. Until we can point te restored confidence at Cairo and Alexandria, to eccncrnical and upright administration in the Courts, to a provident collection and expenditure of the Revenue, we bave nothing to show which can justify us in demanding from Egypt uncomplaining submission to a policy which all a priori reasoning must condemn, and which has hitherto proved as ineffectual in practice as it is plainly unsound in theory. The Satwday Btiirw says The opponent of reform have been told over and over again that they have opposed it twice before and have been ibown to be wrong each time.
This calm assurance that what has happened necessarily ought to have happened is a little peculiar in Radicals. Of course no opponent of Reform would for a moment admit that the results of 1832 or 1867 prove him wrong. He wculd say tbat the circumstances in the first case were entirely different, and that the history of tbe second distinctly proves that both in home and foreign policy an enlarged electorate is dangerous to the best interests of tbe country. It is in this conviction much morethsn in any party feeling which indeed does eot apply to Liberal opponents of Reform at all tbat tbe strength of the Opposition consists. And it is this feeling which justifies them fully in using any CLEStitutional means whatever in defeating, delaying, or modif ing the measure.
It is said that it must be passed some day. A man mngt die some day but be need not on tbat account take poison to-morrow, or bold out bis throat without a struggle to the knife of tbe first comer of homicidal tendencies.

IT YORK DIOCESAN AND CHURCH EXTENSION SOCIETY. The Vecerablt Archdeacon Croetkwaite, yesier-day, preached in the church or St. Hichael-le-Balfry, in aid of the foods of the York Diocesan and Church Extension Society and of toe Diocesan Education Society. lie took for bis text lit Cor-inthianr, 12 chap. 27 verse, "Mow ye are the body of Christ end members in particular." At the rloae of the sermon he seed it was hit duty to ask those present to contribute to two important societies societiee which had a special claim upon them because they existed for the promotion of the Churches work io that diocese.
The York Diocesan and Church Extension Society aimed to promote by grants of money the erection of churches where additional churches were needed, and the enlargement of others which were too small to meet the wants of the neighbourhood, the endowment of newly-erected churches by augmenting the local benefactions raised for that purpose, the increasing of the endowments of poor churches, the erection of homes for the clergy, and the building of misaton-rocmi and mission chapels in the midst of large and increasing populations. The last object which the society had undertaken the promotion of mission-rooms or chapels was one of great importance. The need for inch rooms was well known to all who were acquainted with the growth of towns, and the need of such places was proved by the fact that during the first year that work had been undertaken by the society grants were voted towards the erection of no fewer than nine mission rooms or chapels. The great value of the work could not be measured by the grants in very many cases where the work would not have been begun but for the stimulus and assistance given by that society. The second object on behalf of waua he appealed was the Diocesan Education Society.
The funds placed at the disposal of that society were devoted, first, to the York Training College for Schoolmasters, and. sesoodly, for the inspection of elementary schools in religious knowledge. The proper training of misters for the elementary schools was a matter in which they were all interested, and testimony bad been borne by the Government Inspector to the efficient management of the York Training College. It was greatly to be rrgretted that the support given to the Education fkciety was far lrom being equal to its needs. His pergonal feeling was that subscriptions were due to the inspection fund from every school which was inspected, but the fact was that while nearly 590 schools were visited by the examiner not more than oDe-fourth of that number contributed tc the funds The object of schools connected with the Church was to give sound education to the children who attend and those who founded as well as those who support tbem believed that no education could be tonnd which did not give religion its proper place, and they desired that children should be wall trained and thus fitted for the positions in life to which God bad called tbem They also believed that no person could properly discharge the duties of life except in he faith and fear of God and by grace received from Dim.
The chanter from which the text was taken pressed upon them the importance of a proper Christian education as a matter of duty and as a matter of necessity. Christian children, like adults, wars members of the body of Christ, and ail members must have an interest in the welfare of each other. If they were careless of the welfare of the children, they mutt consequently suffer both civilly and religiously, and if on the other hand they promoted their interest it would be for their own gain, for if one member suffered all members suffered with it, and if one member rejoiced all the other members rejoiced with it. In conclusion, he urged the congregation to endeavour to realise all that was meant by being members of Christ's body, and to do what they could so that the rising generation might be properly prepared to fill their places when their work in this world was ended.

unavailing esting account of some of tbe earlier astronomical observations, and afterwards explained how difficult it was to accurately photograph the surface of the moon, 0 wing to the rays of light having some difficulty in forging their way when within 00 miles of the earth. Over tbe surface of the moon there were, he said hundreds of ring-like bodies. Astronomers knew the geography of the moon better than they did the geography of tbe earth. (Apulause.) We only saw one side of the moon, and it had been discovered that the black rings and lines were in reality mountains, which formed its edges. The mountains were measured by means of their shadows, and it had been suggested tbat the rings were the remains of once-active volcanoes.
On tbe earth, as was well known, there were now both active and extinct volcanoes. The difference between tbe earth and the moon was that all the volcanoes in the latter were extinct, Tbe volcanic force in tbe earth was subsiding and, ss the moon was uch tbe smaller of ths two bodies, it bad cooled more speedily. It bad indeed already puted with its heat, therefore it no longer contained tuiticient molten matter in its interior to produce active volcanoes. With regard to lunar craters, it might be asked how it watfBthat there were enormous riugs.
