The Leeds Mercury from Leeds, West Yorkshire, England • 7

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1872, THE LEEDS MEECTJST. GENEEAL FOSEIGN NEWS. ViU UL AJND DR. KIRK. Tho Foreign-oXHco has issued a corrcBpondonco lola'tinc-fo the supplies forwarded to Dr.

Livingntono. Th correspondenoo opens with a letter from Dr. Kirk to Lord Granville, dated Zanzibar, April 9th, JS72, iu which he acknowledges the reoeipt of lnBtxuctions to forward in every way possiblo the object ot tho expedition in charg of Lieut. Dawson, and expresses his roadiness to do whatever lias in his power. In a subsequent letter, dated May 9th, 1872, Dr.

Kirk encloses letters from Dr. Liviugatouo complaining in strong terms of the oonduot of tho messengers sent from Zanzibar with hia supplies. Thes charges of fraud hava already been published in Livingstone's letterB to tho Foreign-office but tho following sentence bears directly on the relations between tho two consuls. In intrusting," Wiitea Dr. Livingstone, "tho matter of supplies and men for ma to tho Banian Ludha, you soom to have been unaware that our Government forbida its servants to employ Blavea, I bad no hold upou peoplo who knew that thoy would not be allowed to keop their wages.

It is also very remarkable that tho objects of your cira-van should bo so completely frustrated by conniving with Shoreif almost within tho shadow 'P Consulate, and neithor dragoman nor other paid official under your orders gavo any infotmstiou. Tha characters of Ah Bin Salom Bin Raschid 3Dd of hi 'ohum iBhereif could Bcireely havo bten hid from them. Why employ them without characters?" Dr. Kirk, in hia letter forwarding thoeo of Dr. Livingstone, Bays:" Tho latter has confided tho wholo of his diary and notes to Mr.

Stanloy, with special instructions to allow nothing to transpire at Zanzibar as to his routes and plana. Ho had, indeed, Btudiouily refrained from affording to tho writer tha smallest hint oither of his paBt labours or of new explorations. The Doctor's charge of Blaves being employed to cirry on hia supplies is, Dr. Kirk asserts, untrue at least the man on being engaged declared themselves to ba free. That they had turned oat badly ho quite admits, but it is not unuimal to havo Borious difficulties with this class of men.

"I refrain," he adds, from making any observation on tho very uncourtoons tone of Dr. Livingstone's lotterj, or tho tiugenarous personal insinuations affecting myself and Dr. Churchill's conduct in the manner iu which wo carried out our instructions but I shall bo ready when required to answer any point upon which your Lordship may coll for an explanation. In conclusion, I bog to observo that I am wholly at a loss to explain why Dr. Liviugatouo, accredited, aa Hor Majesty's ConBuI, should not at once havo taken tho strongest measures to put an end to murder, Blave stealing, and robbery, all of which ho says woro opouly carried ou by Nosaick Boys, British proK-fe4, who, if not now part of bis escort, wero at losst introduced into tho country by him.

If ho finds himself powerloEB to mtorfero, how can ho oxpoct ustico to overtake tho accused from this distance, in a region not in any way within the power of tho Sultan of Zanzibar In tho final letter of tho correspondence Dr. Kirk Buys that Mr. W. O. Livingstone, aiuco perusing hia father's lattora, had refused to accompany Mr.

Stanley's party or go to hix father. Mr. Btanloy, in order to evade blame if his man did not reach Dnyonyembo in time, applied to Dr. Kirk to sea them started off after hia departure from Zanzibar but ho (Dr. Kirk) had i'lformed him that ho could not' after what Dr.

LivingBtono bud dona and Buid, act ia any bnt an official capacity. did not see eve to nvA nn speaker. The electors of Bradford kuvo manifestly no desiro to quarrel with their senior member. They have lived and loved together during many changing years," and now, when the representative ia able in 6orno measure to ropay tho debt ho owes Bradford, by conferring honour upon the represented in return for that which he originally received at their hands, it seoms almost impossible that tho two should bo divorced ou auy pretence whatever. Mutual pride and confidence in each other havo always distinguished tho relations of Mr.

FoitSTER and his constituents. They may have their differences at tinicsf and aomo of those differences may bo very painful to both parties. But we have too high an opinion of tho common sense and j'ustico of the electors of Bradford to bolievo that they would stultify themselves by an open quarrel with tho distinguished statesman who may bo said to to them and to bo ono of themselves. Of course thoy could easily get a more pliable man than their senior representative there are a hundred men of ability and position quito wilb'ug to pronounco any shibboleth which the majority of tho electors may chooso to dictate it might -though is very doubtful be even possible for theni to obtain a man who would climb to as high a post in tho councils of the nation as that now occupied by the Moinbor whom they heard so patiently last night. But thoy will never get another Mb.

Fokstek they can never hope to have a representative who by his earnest Liberal sympathies, his unflinching honesty, his shrewd common sense, and a certain rough piquancy of speech, would be ao wll fitted to be Member for Bradford as the present Vice-President of the Council. There ia only one Bradford in tho United Kingdom, and there is only ti one jsih. dokster. Home of the Liberals of tho borough may for the moment think otherwise but we only repeat the univorsal sentiment of tho rest of tin: country whon wo say that Member and constituency seem to have been made for oach other, and that any separation between them would be aa great a loss to tho ono as to tho other. The speech which was listened to with so much attention last night was, like all Mil.

Forstek's speeohes, thoroughly practical aud straightforward. It is a pleasure to turn from tho mere piling up of sontences, the mouthing of platitudes or naradoxes which in tho vacation amusement of too many Members of Parliament, to tho plain, earnest, and thoughtful words of the Member for Brudford. Yesterday there were two topics on which he naturally dilated at some length the Ballot and the Geneva Arbitration. What Mb. Forster's Bharo in passing tho Ballot Bill was is known to everybody Ho undertook the management of the measuro in tho House of Commons under tho belief, as he himself acknowledges, that the work of carrying it would be an easy one.

Wo have no need to renvud our readers of tho extent to which he was mistaken. But in spito of the strenuous opposition he encountered he suocoeded in passing tho bill, and in passing it, with two gravo exceptions, in tho form in which he hud first introduced it. Tho great question now is, How will tho Act work Of courso we are pointed to Preston as an example of tho utter usc-lessness of the measure. Mr. Fokster, however, does not see in tho case of Preston anything to cause alarm or oven tmeasincss.

It is true that tho clever electioneering agents of a borough in which tho very children seem to imbibe a political bias at tho maternal breast, succeeded in making what was called last night a good guess" at the state of the poll during the recent contest. But tins was all that thoy did. Thev hud nn nrmif nf wm, in on u.uu 11J mim voted and this after all is tho best indication thut the measure is a successful ono. We believe with Mr. Forster that thero will never be as good a guess made again as tliat which was made at Preston, and wo are quite Bure that when tho Tory agents find that they only deceive themselves and their followers by these tricks and muuumvres they will cease to practise theiu.

Wo are glad that Mr. Forsixkr did not countenance in any way tho idea that it should bo made penal for a man to state how ho had voted. That, ns we have always contended, would bo "un-English" with a vengeance. It miy be that some means can bo devised for preventing the open and impudent attempt of a political party to defeat the provisions of an Act of Parliament; but, perhaps, after all our bet safeguard is to be found in public opinion. As Mr.

Forster rightly says, it is tho boast of Englishmen that though they might fight vigorously against a law whilst it is passing, they all obey it when it has been passed. Public opinion will, wo are sure, be strongly adverse to ony delibor.ato attempt to evade tho provisions of tho Ballot Act. Conservative leaders will he very slow to lend their couuteuanco to such attempts, and the example of Preston is therefore scarnfdv likolv tn be extensively followed. Apart from this particular case, there is everything in our experience of the measure to justify Mr. Forster in his natural triumph at tho successful working of the Act of which he is in some sense tho parent.

Nowhere could Mr. Forster have met with a more sympathetic audience, when speaking of the United States, than at Bradford. It is hardly necessary to sav that few Member? of Pnrli-mienf have a bettor right than he has to speak words of friendship concerning the American people. Lost night he became eloquent in tho earnestness wiui wmc no expressed bis debght at tho flual settlement of our differences with tho United States. Nothing, he assured his constituents, in the whole course of his public life had caused him more reioicine than the Trent of WimViinitnn This is strong language; but those who know Mr.

Forster will need no assurance of its genuineness. When the American pcoplo woro passing through tho fierce ordeal of the Civil War ho and the people of Bradford wore true to the cause of freedom, and they have a right now to feel a special interest in the removal of the grievances which recently divided ns from that great kindred nation. For our part wo confess that no recent utterances by public men have given us more genuine satisfaction than those of Mr. Lowe and Mr. Forster upon this subject.

We were grateful to the Lord Chief Justice for tho masterly argument, in which he vindicated the action of our Government during the Civil War. But we must not forget, when wo feel inclined to fall back upon the old position which Lord Bvssell held so skilfully and so resolutely, that we voluntarily abandoned that position in order to secure the lasting welfare of the two peoples. We made a sacrifice in doing so, but Mr. Forster and Mr. Lowe arc both earnest in repudiating the idea that any particle of our honour was sacrificed in that great transaction.

We trust that the burning words in which the Member for Bradford expressed his own delight at the thought that he had not been without some share in tho settlement of the differences between England and America, will more than counteract the influenco of those writers and speakers who insist upon harping on tho old string, and who seem determined to keep alive the recollection of misunderstandings which we have solemnly agreed to bury in oblivion. Mr. Forster had much to say to his constituents last night, and he might have referred to many other political triumphs in which ho had some share but, after all, he waa right in speaking of this Washington Treaty and the subsequent Aibitratio as the greatest achievement of his party, and ho uttered no idle words when he exproaod bis conTiotion that, hqd.

Last night accord ragly, when tho streets of the bu8y bor'outh he represents were being swept by an equinoctial trale of exceptional violence, he found himself faeo to face St. George's Hall with 3 an audience aa couia well have been packed mto the spa cious building. There have keen, and perhaps there are, differences between Ib- Forsteb and some of those who are ranked among his best friends but no tompornry estrangement, no feeling of coldness, was visible yesterday evening when ho stood up to address bis constituents after an Interval of silence which be himself acknowledged to be a long one.

Later on in the evening the customary vote of confidence was passed with warmth, and without one dissentient voice, and throughout the whole proceedings there was nothing to suggest that tho audience Bis political career begun and ended with this single transaction, ho would not havo lived and Berved the public in vain. The inhabitants of Leeds will havo seen with much satisfaction tliat it is proposed to reeogniso tho services of tho present Mayor during his double term of offico in a handsome and substantial manner. Without in any way detracting from the conspicuous merits of many of Mr. Barran'8 predecessors in the offico ho now holds, wo only repeat tho universal sentiment when we say that Leeds has never had a more indefatigablo or public-spirited Cliief Magistrate than its presont ono and that, in retiring from office, he will leave the wholo town indebted to him for his public labours and private liberality. The two years during which he has presided over the Town Council havo, as wo all know, been years of exceptional interest aud importance in the history of Leeds.

Much has been expected of tho Mayor, and it is tho barest justice to him to say that upon no occasion has he disappointed tho expectations thus formed. Two instances of his public spirit and munificence will occur to everybody his reception of the Social Seionco Congress last year, and his efforts to mako the great event of last week full worthy of tho occasion. Of the princely liberality which distinguished tho entertainments he provided for tho inhabitants in connection with tho opening of Roundhay Park wo have no occasion to speak, while tho memory of that auspicious day is still fresh in the minds of all but wo may point to tho fact that to tho Mayor, more than to anybody else, the town is indebted for tho possession of Roundhay Park itself. There were many workers in tho good cause, but it will bo universally admitted that Mr. Baruan held tho foremost place throughout.

There is no need, we are suro, to plead with our reuders ou behalf of tho movement now begun for the purposo of securing tho proper recognition of his services. Everybody will acquiesco heartily in the step which has thus been taken by soino of the most influential inhabitants of the town, and most will bo willing to give some aid to tho undertaking. It is proposed to erect a statue of the Mayor on a commanding site in tho Park which ho has dono so much to secure for the peoj)lo of Leeds, and to present him with a handsome piece of plato as a memorial of tho interesting and fortunate events connected with his Mayoralty. Both proposals havo our own complete sympathy, aud will, we doubt not, be warmly approved of by tho inhabitants of Leeds, j. If Dr.

LrvrsGSTosE should bo spared to complete his explorations aud to return onceuioro from tho interior of Africa, ho will learn that ho bas lived long enough to sot many of his most trusted friends by tho cars, and to have involved his trials and his sufferings in a bitter controversy as to the cause of them. The letters just issued by the Foreign Office will only add fuel to the ilarno which has been set ablaze by Mr, Stanley, and which has burnt with so much vehemence as to scorch all who hava come within its rays. As yet no ono has touched tho controversy who has not retired with burnt lingers, and tho official correspondence now made public does not lead us to hope that wo have passed through tho last stage of this trial by fire. Mr. Stanley, ns an American, was not bound to consult the feelings of Englishmen in telling bis slory, and wo know that he did not, He told it roughly, and wo learnt from it that Livingstone had not been discovered beforo, bc-causo no one soemed really to care whether he was discovered or not.

The suspicion of Livingstone's death, though never confirmed, had evidently left a doubt upon the minds of tho officials at Zanzibar, anditi organisingtheexpcclitious which were sent off from time to time, tho work was done with so little earnestness that they utterly failod, the iioorls intended for LiviNasTONK being stolen by he natives having charge of tho expeditious, and sold for their own benefit. Wo can only account for the failure of thoso expeditions upon some such explanation ns we havo suggested, for tho success of Mlt. Stanlky showed that there was no iusuporablu difficulty in the way. We are not surprised that Dr. Livingstone felt aggrieved.

Practically bo found himself abandoned, and in the bitterness of his anger he wrote the letters to Dr. Kirk and Earl Granville which the Foreign Office has just issued. We may regret that there bhould over have been my reasou fortheso letters. Th( re ought not to havo been, and Dit. Kirk says there was not, but we do not thtuk the public will entirely exonerate Dlt.

Untie and Mr. Churchill from all blame. It is admitted that the expeditious were intrusted to unscrupulous men, and that tho porters and servants were chieily slaves, and the explanation now offered is not ontirely satisfactory. Between Dr. Kirk and Dr, Livingstone, ns between Dr.

Li vikostone and the Geographical Society, there had grown up a feeling of irritation, and tho result is seen in tho unpleasant contro versy with which the public is only too familiar. ForthopreseutDR.LiviNasTONEhasthrownhimself upon tho American Consul at Zanzibar, and tho American people through Mr, Stanley, and tho senso of humiliation which every Englishman feels at the failure of all which we have projected but failed to accomplish, has intensified tho personal misunderstanding which has grown out of thoso fuil ures. We must trust to the future to set ourselves right with Dr. Livingstone. The second section of tho Steam Whi3tles Act provides that no person shall use or employ in any manufactory, or any other place, any steam whistle or steam trumpet for tho purpose of summoning or dismissing workmen or persons employed, without tho sanction of tho sanitary authority." The sanitary authority in municipal boroughs is tho Corporation, and in the borough of Leeds it is tho Leeds Town Council.

Our readers will remember that; the bill, though a private bill, was passed with very little opposition, for everybody felt that the nuisanco against which it was directed had become simply intolerable. We had hoped that when the bill received the P.oyal assent, and became an Act, we had heard the last of these discordant and wholly unnecessary sounds. Wo are afraid, however, that wo have congratulated ourselves a little too soon, and that there is some danger of tho permissive power given to "the sanitary authority" being exercised for the purpose of sanctioning the nuisance' rather than for suppressing it. The subject is to be brought before the Leeds Town Council afc a special meeting to be hold on Monday, when a number of letters are to be read, and a memorial from certain ratepayers of Busliugthorpo, praying that the use of steam whistles and buzzers may be allowed, is to be presented, and a resolution is to bo moved that the Council grant tho required permission; in other words, that tho Council shall declare the Act to be a dead letter, so far as Leods is concerned. Wo trust that the Council, iu the interest of the public generally, will negative the resolution, and refuse to grant tho proyer of tho memorialists.

If there were any necessity for theso weird noiBcs at untimely hours, tho public would submit to them, in patience, but there really is ao such necessity, and there is no more reason why a factory should bo opened by the screeching of steam whistles and the unearthly groaning of steam buzzers than that a place oi business should. Tha habit of early rising is just as easily acquired as that of lato rising, and no such sounds as this Act prohibits aro needed to waken tha household of factory workers. Indeed, to be of any practical use in this direction, the sounds wou' foj emitted at the, time, for getting up, as well as at tho timo of commencing work, so mat, me nuisanco wouici be multiplied indefinitely. They aro not necessary' for awakening tho worker, and they aro a serious disturbance to the iuvalid and tho wakeful. For commencing work, announcing meal hours, and stopping work, a bell is all that is requisite, and there is nothing in tho Act prohibiting tho use of tho ordinary factory bell.

Tho steam whistle and the buzzer aro an excrosceuce on an old custom, and engineers and manufacturers have striven with each other as to which could discover the most discordant shrieks and groans by mechanical means. Certain ratepayers in Busliugthorpo may not object to these shrieks and groans, but wo apprehend the public do, and as they areporfectly unnecessary, wo trust the Council will not listen to tho prayer of the memorialists. If Busling-thorpo is to sot the Act aside, Kirkstall-road, East-street, Hunslot. Holbeck. Wortlev.

and Armlnv must be allowed to do tho same, and the Act will bo rondered inoperative. THE NEW LICENSING ACT.

Mr. Summore, ot Hull, was retained by tho publicans, and presented a petition, which, ho said, was signed by the Vicar and soveral hundred inhabitants, in favour ot tho closing being at eleven, and sotting forth as the reasons that the markst was a late ono that tho Inrmorfl Btayed lato with thoir friends in the town that there would bo littlo time for social intorcourso and that tho last train did not arrive until ten o' clock.

Tn Hours oh GLOsma Billiard Eooira.

Several publicans in Hnll have boon anxious to know how tbo new Act affect tha cloaing of billiard rooms, and yesterday tbo stipendiary magistrate (Mr. T. H. Travis) explained his mows upon tho matter. He said he had considered the subject carefully, and thoro appeared to bo no quostion about it that billiard rooms must bo closed at, tho same hours as public-houses, and that although public-houses had the power of sorving guests in tho name of travellers with food and perhaps with liquor at other timon, yet they wero not justified in allowing tho U60 ot tha billiard table at any time when, gene, rally speaking, public-houses must be closed.
