A British Association relief drive is praised for broad donations across churches and chapels in London and beyond. Subscriptions from Hatton Garden, Derbyshire, Cambridge and Hackney, plus a German Lutheran and Unitarian chapel effort, total substantial sums. The account highlights a Westport ragged school funded by the Count de Stryelecki and notes reduced beggar activity, cultural uplift, and moral improvement among youths through these distributions.

Extraordinary disclosures at Barxcorter Court 1878
The bankrupt, once a large trader, faced creditors as he testified under examination. Debts were put at an astonishing 800,000,000 pounds. He blamed Peel's Bill and currency issues, while detailing losses from disputes, a reckless lifestyle, fraudulent lenders, and a failed railway drive. The commissioner adjourned the inquiry, deeming the case the worst he had seen.
