Foreign Notes Items From Brighton to Constantinople and London
A bequest of £12,000 for Brighton’s poor by the late John Bates is noted. A Sevres chimney group sold for $53,300 to Lord Dudley at an English auction. The London News expects J Stuart Mill manuscripts on Nature Theism and Utility of Religion to publish in October. Rochefort’s friends plan Lanterne in London, dependent on him and government actions. A Leamington executive committee meeting of the National Agricultural Labourers Union urges preventing rural migration during hay and corn harvest. Voelcker testifies before the Commons on adulteration of food and supports extending the Act to cattle foods and an analytical court of appeal. The early closing movement gains momentum in Constantinople with new police orders to close theatres cafes and similar venues by midnight and punishment for violations, plus a crackdown on public gambling to improve morality.
