Mr. Wakley put in three affidavits, two by Mr. Strangeand one by Mr. Williams. The latter said that he had carriedon business as a homœpathist for upwards of twenty yearsand had never had the service of a medical practitioneras "cover" to him. Mr. Strange merely had the use ofthe consulting-rooms. In his affidavits Mr. Strange saidthere had never been any partnership between him and Mr.Williams, and the two practices were entirely distinct. Heknew nothing whatever about the issue of the circulars towhich exception had been taken.

After deliberating in private for a. time the Council deter-mined to instruct the registrar to erase from the MedicalRegister the name of Mr. Strange.

The Final Examinations-Dublin University.’ Sir DYCE DUCKWORTH presented a draft report by theExamination Committee on the reports of the visitors andinspector and the remarks of the examining bodies on thefinal examinations of the University of Dublin, the RoyalUniversity of Ireland and the Conjoint Examining Board inScotland. He might explain that in all these cases the visitorsand inspector were satisfied with the sufficiency of theexaminations, although they had passed some minor criticisms.According to their instructions the committee reserved forthe end of the cycle of visitations and inspections of exami-nations any report upon matters affecting these examinationsas a whole. The cycle would not be completed until twoyears hence.

Dr. HAUGHTON, speaking for the University of Dublin,expressed thanks for the courtesy shown and the painstaken by the visitors in examining into their examinations.They had pointed out certain defects which the Universityadmitted and undertook to remedy. They had, how-

Iever, brought forward other points which the Universityresisted.

Sir WALTER FOSTER said that he was sorry the Uni-

versity had not received the criticisms of the visitors in amore kindly spirit. He hoped the defects pointed out wouldbe taken to heart by the University. That was the least theCouncil could ask from it.

Dr. GLOVER complained of a conspiracy of silence in regardto this matter and proceeded to comment on certain points inthe report.

,

Sir DYCE DUCKWORTH formally moved that the Councilproceed to discuss the report on the examination of theUniversity of Dublin.

Dr. GLOVER seconded this motion.Dr. P. HERON WATSON said the distinct understanding was

that the Council should have all the reports before discussingthem seriatim.The PRESIDENT said that, having regard to a former decision

of the Council, they had no alternative but to proceed withthe discussion of the report on the examinations of the Uni-versitv of Dublin.

Dr. GLOVER, resuming his speech, expressed regret thatthe University of Dublin, through its examiners, had com-plained that the inspectors had exceeded their function in ex-pressing an opinion as to whether the final examinations wereworthy of the University. Technically, no doubt, the businessof the inspectors was merely to satisfy themselves that theexaminations were a guarantee of competency to practice, butit was not for a great institution like the one in question toobject that the inspectors in a secondary paragraph consideredthe nature2 of the qualification that was to follow and theadequacy of the examination in regard to it.Mr. BRYANT took exception to the test in operative surgery.

He thought the mere watching of two operations was mostunsatisfactory and that the time would be much better spentin surgical anatomy, the use of instruments and splints or .the reduction of dislocations.

Sir DYCE DuCKWORTH moved that the summary of thevisitors’ and inspector’s report, as contained in the report ofthe Examination Committee, relating to the final examinationof the University of Dublin be forwarded to the authorities ofthat University.

Sir WALTER FOSTER seconded this motion.After a few words of comment the motion was agreed to.Sir WALTER FOSTER then moved, by way of addition :

That the Council regret that the report of the ExaminationCommittee on the report of the visitors and inspector of theCouncil has disclosed defects in the examination for medicaldegrees in the University of Dublin, to which the Council

.feel it their duty to call the serious attention of the authoritiesof the University, with a view to their removal."

) Mr. BRUDENELL CARTER seconded this motion.l Sir WILLIAM TURNER thought that it was unfair to the! University of Dublin to send down an indefinite motion o

this kind. It was the duty of Sir Walter Foster to specify, something.l Sir WALTER FOSTER said that the report of the Examina-

tion Committee disclosed the defects.i Sir JOHN BANKS pointed out that the University of Dublin, had always shown itself to be ready to accept the suggestion

of the Council, and he had no doubt it would do so in this par.ticular instance.

Sir WILLIAM TURNER submitted that this addition to the-motion was unnecessary if the report of the ExaminationCommittee disclosed the defects in question.

Sir WALTER FOSTER said there was no expression in thereport of the opinion of the Council, and that was what hewished.

Sir JOHN SIMON expressed his satisfaction with the assur.ance of the University authorities that in future they woulenot pass candidates whose spelling was defective.The PRESIDENT said that there was no doubt the University

authorities would take in good part any suggestions of theCouncil and in the circumstances he thought the Councilmia-ht rest content with the motion already massed.

Sir WALTER FOSTER did not think this was sufficient. If theCouncil were to exercise any influence upon medical educa-tion it must not be afraid of expressing its opinion. If theysimply sent on this report without any comment or anyrequest for serious attention or reform they would be playingthe game, played too long by the Council, of allowing theirdecrees to be inoperative. They ought to have courage tosay that there were defects and that these defects should beremedied. *

Sir WILLIAM TURNER suggested that it was not a courteous.resolution.DR. GLOVER thought the resolution unnecessary having

regard to what had already occurred.Dr. HERON WATSON expressed the view that the resolution

would defeat its own purpose.Sir JOHN SIMON said he would like to see some expression

of regret at the fact that, out of eighteen candidates passed,five obtained less than half the number of marks.

’ After some further discussion the Council agreed by a.

large majority to pass the resolution in the following amendedform-viz., "The Council feel it their duty to call the-serious attention of the authorities of the University of Dublir,to the report of the Examination Committee, with a view tc.the removal of the defects of examination, to some of whichattention has already been drawn. "

Sir JOHN BANKS having made some comment on the

report with regard to the Royal University of Ireland, itwas agreed to forward the report to the authorities of theUniversity.

2’he Medical Associations Aid Committee., Mr. WHEELHOUSE formally handed in the report of thecommittee on medical aid associations.The Council thereupon adjourned.

THE HOUSE OF LORDS.THURSDAY, MAY 18TH.

Sale of Intoxicating Liquo, (Ireland) Bill.In committee on this Bill, the first clause, which continues the Sale

of Liquors on Sunday (Ireland) Act, 1878, and extends its provisions inregard to closing on the whole of Sundays to Dublin and to othercities, provoked considerable discussion. Lord Rookwood moved anamendment to the effect that m Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Water-ford and Belfast the opening hours, instead of being those fixedby the Act, should be from to 5 P.M.—Lord O’Neill thought thatsome amendment of the kind was inevitable ; but he proposedto amend the amendment by making it to include the city ofBelfast.-Lord Monteagle presented several petitions praying thatentire Sunday closing might be extended to Limerick.-The Earl ofMeath was prepared to support Loid Rookwood in his amendment if hewould substitute 4 o’clock for 5 as the closing hour.-Earl Spencer said,in view of the difference of opinion in regard to two or three of thecities mentioned in the Bill, he would rather that the matter should bereserved for consideration before the Standing Committee.-Lord Rook-wood replied that after the remarks of the noble Earl he would withdrawhis amendment. This was done, a,nd the debate at this stage wasadjourned.

THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.FRIDAY, MAY 19TH.

The North Sea Fisheries Bill.The Committee on this Bill was resumed ; but previously to the dis-

eussipn of the measure a question was asked by Mr. T. li Bowles I

regarding the delay which had arisen in publishing the correspondencerelative to the North Sea Liquor Convention, which delay, Sir E. Greyexplained, was rendered necessary by the work connected with theBehring Sea arbitration. To another question on the same subject,put by Mr. Bowles, Mr. Mundella replied that the evils connectedwith the liquor traffic had long been recognised, and for the purposeof controlling that traffic the Government had entered into a newConvention. The objections cited by the hon. member applied equallyto the Sea Fisheries Act, 1883, which had worked admirably. TheHouse then, in committee, proceeded to the discussion of Clause 3,which dealt principally with the restriction of the number of floatinggrog-shops and brothels and for the control of which a new Conventionhad been formed, the former Convention not having been agreed to byFrance. The other clauses were, after discussion, also agreed to, andthe Bill was read a third time.

Sewer Air at HarnpsteadIn reply to a question put by Mr. Weir, Mr. H. Fowler said he was

informed that a few complaints had been made by the inhabitants ofthe parish of St. John, Bampstead, during the last ten years of foul airarising from the sewers, and that Mr. Mansergh, in advising the vestry,did not condemn the system in use in the parish, but, on the contrary,recommended its further development. Accordingly the vestry hadbeen increasing the means of ventilating and cleansing the sewets.

The Sale of Intoxicating Liquors.Leave was obtained to introduce a Bill to prohibit the sale of intoxi.

cating liquors to persons of known drunken habits, and the measurewas subsequently brought up and read a first time.

S2tpply.On the vote to complete the sum of £220,732 for expenditure in respect

of sundry public buildings in Great Britain not provided for in othervotes Sir J. Lubbock said that something ought to be done immediatelyto provide additional accommodation for students coming up for exa.mination at the London University.-Mr. Shaw-Lefevre said that th&Government had not lost sight of the question and suggested thatexamination rooms might be found on the Millbank site. Objectionswere taken to this suggestion, but ultimately the vote was agreed to.
