THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 10, 1851. reCt2tion oilier filsktoatj *lda her ands and loyal City of London. tip to half-past seven or eight o'clock, how ever, the main streets, though considerably congested, were still free of circulation. But between eight and nine o'clock the various feeders north and 'south of Fleet-street, Ludgate-hill, and Cheeped° became thronged with the population of the outlying districts. By nine o'clock these streets became almost choked up with an anxious and expectant crowd. It might have been expected that the pressure sad confusion at Guildhall would be more remarkable than at any other point, but so good were the arrangements of the City police, under the immediate direction of Mr. Superine tendent Hodgson, that the space from Guildhall to Cheap. side was probably by far the quietest part of the royal route—indeed, for upwards of an hour before the Questa arrived, the area in front of the hall might have served as g reception room. The company began to arrive about 6 o'clock, and frank that time until half-past 8, when the closed barriers forbade the entrance of any additional vehicle, there was an almost 'itentianous stream of carriages. These being covered, but few of the occupants were recognised, but now and then a familiar face was disclosed, and in particular were seen, one after another, the familiar visages of the members of the two houses of parliament. T heDuke of Wellington arrived at about a quarter past eight, shortly after which the barriers were closed, until the advent of royalty. Prom this moment the exterior of the festive hall Maned an appearance of singular quietude. Inside were batneon two sod three thousand guests, but there was no els, external to indicate their presence ; and hail they been inclosed for a grand razzia, instead of a crowning fes tivity in the annul mirabilis of the present century, there could not have been fewer symptoms of the coming revel. The grand entrance was shut, and there were no " sights or sounds " to tell who were within, no e loud barepoon,e or other musical instrument, to excite useless longings for admission. The pavement all round the area in front, being boarded, was canopied with an awning. The west side was lined by a detachment of the lionourable Artillery Company, under the command of Major Barnard, flanked on the right by the Company's band. Opposite was stationed a select, rather than a numerous body of the dile of the police ; and the entrance a rt apart for the Queen was guarded by those hereditary attendants on such occasions, the Yeomen of the Guard. A 1 1 few outriders of the palace were the only other persona seen, in front of the hall, if we except the occasional' dating of an alderman or a deputy along the pavement. Over the main entrance was a tasteful illumination, con sisting of the royal arms, in large dimensions. The effect of this was all that could be di sired. The exterior portions consisted of jets of gas, in which the lion and the unicorn I stood out well and proudly. The centre was composed of stained glass, in which were pourtrayed the insignia of the United Kingdom, in a manner deserving praise for the contrivance. In all the windows of the Guildhall Police court were stationed groups of ladies, interspersed with some of the male sex, and even the roof was covered with spectators. The entrance set apart for her Majesty was that which leads to the City courts, and at this spot aldermen and other civic functionaries, in their civic robes, were visible at intervals. Such were the preparations for her Majesty's reception' outside the Guildhall. It had been announced that the Queen would arrive at half-past. nine, and as her Majesty's punctuality is become proverbial, expectation was increasing ly on the alert as the time approached. At a quarter past nine there was a pro- mature flush of excitement, caused by the arrival of the Duchess of Kent and her grace's household. For a moment every one seemed taken by surprise, and the band struck up the National Anthem; but a moment dispelled the de lusion, and there was a further suspense. It was a quarter to 11l when the royal cortege first came within sight. Four n.eunted patrols had the honour of heralding the Queen's approach. A moment afterwards, the lichnets of the Guard, glittered ion the distance; cheers, hunts, and waving of handkerchiefs followed in quick succession ; and, amidst the ringing of the bells of St. Law rence, the playing of the National Anthem by the band, mei other kindred ebullitions of loyal enthusiasm, the royal cavalcade drove into the courtway. The scene at this moment, though not so noisy as elsewhere, was brilliant and picturceseue. Two or three carriages had yielded up their occupants, amongst whom was the Mar quee of Westminster, the Lord Steward, before that of her Majesty drew up at the door. The Duke ef Norfolk and the Duchess of Sutherland alighted before the sovereign ; Prince Albert eucceetled, and her Majesty then stepped on the fouteloth which carpeted the pavement. The Queen was received in due form at the door of the carriage by the Lord Mayor. The preparations made fur the bull were commensurate with the importance of the occasion. The Guildhall itself, one of the finest interiors in Europe un supported by pillars, had been thoroughly cleaned and refreshed. The whole of the floor was boarded over and covered with crimson cloth, and at the eastern end was erected a dais upon which the throne was to be placed. The southern porch, which retains all its ancient richness of style, was handsomely decorated with crimson cloth, and surmounted by banners and garlands, and the TILE QUEEN'S VISIT TO TIIE CITY. noble hell itself was decorated with tableaux typical of the circumstances which had originated the festival.

The care of the Lord's flock, entrusted to us by Divine Providence, imposes the necessity of watching that the enemy of the human kind does not spread the evil of error in this camp of the elect, and does not corrupt with the poison of false doctrines the salutary food of the gospel . To this end do we now lift our voice, in order to admonish those who disobey, encourage the weak and condemn heretics. We hope that our paternal advice, and the clear expressions by which we condemn all wicked books, heretical prints, journals and publications which directly or indirectly assail catholicism, its doctrines, morals, discipline, and clergy, will suffice to keep on their guard all catholic writers residing in our diocese, and especially those living in Malta. In a country where the catholic faith and submission to the church are almost natural sentiments, it was not to be expected that attacks would be permitted upon that faith and that church. But in this our hopes have been deceived. A journal, named the Areemrs, has now been in circulation for upwards of a year and a half, which expresses the opinions of a society whose object should, according to its title, be the promotion, as far as in its power lay, of the real good of its country. This journal has for some time attracted our attention on account of the very nn-catholic tone in which its religious doctrines are put forward. Our paternal heart being moved by just motives, being repugnant to use rigorous means towards our own sons,and especially hoping that the right path would he resumed in the course of time, we were led at first to suspend our judgment. But our hopes not having been realized, our pastoral solicitude obliged us to subject the journal in ques tion to an attentive and impartial examination. The result of this step has been to confirm us in the belief that the Atretiire is an irreligious print, which con tains erroneous, false, and captious doctrines in matters of religion, which twists Scripture in a sense different from that recognised by the church, mal treats ecclesiastical authority, without sparing the supreme bishop, and gives to Christianity an aspect entirely different from that in which it should be vievasi by every . son of the catholic church. For this reason, having before our eyes God alone, and the welfare of the owns committed to our charge, and moved only by a most intimate conviction, we do ac cordingly condemn without restriction the journal entitled the A rcenire, and declare consequently that, by the publication of this condemnation, not only the editors and writers of the journal, but all who are directly or indirectly concerned in it. or who read and keep it without permission, incur the penalty of censure. We flatter ourselves with the hope that the intentions of those who founded the ,journal being good, the judgment pronounced by us will open their eyes, and that, confessing their fault with the generoeity . of sincere minds, they will alter their opinions, promote the good of their country by supporting catholicism, renounce the weapons of pride and slander, and cease to follow the course of those who think most of the things of this world, and give themselves up to a vague and general species of religion which ends in pure deism, altering every doctrine and teaching of the Roman catholic church, out of which there is neither strength nor salvation. On the occasion of issuing this our pastoral, we cannot refrain from expressing our disapproval of the words and sentiments of other journals. We allude to the .11,tliterratioi and the (Millie. The former often pots out of its way in its character of a journal and commercial organ to pub lish articles Which are calculated to offend the pious ears of the faithful, and more especially hurt the sentiment of brotherly charity. 'f he Online, when its aim is to defend religion and truth, de- Kends to vile diatribes and to low and irritating modes of argument which have no other effect than to add fuel to the flame of discord which burns be tween the two extreme parties. It even goes so tar as to oppose indirectly its own pastor, and auda ciously to dictate the course which ought to he fol lowed. With that authority, therefore, which a pastor is allowed by all good catholies to possess, we intimate to the editors of the Jfediterronis and Orlin e, that they must correct these errors and write their articles with due dignity, charity, and ratiocination. We doubt not but that both journals will submit quietly to our orders. Should they not do so we will exert against them our spiritual arms, and in order to preserve public morals, of which we should he no less solicitous than of our faith, we willridotheire against them as we have done before, and as we will do in the same ease to other journals. Finally, we express, as we have done before, our desire to fathers of families that they, being penetrated with the sentiments of a lively faith, will gise their offspring a strictly catholic education. Let them watch over their children, the books they read, the friendships they form, and the places they frtsment. They know what a fearful account they have to give to God of the consequences of a bad or neglected education. For this they should unite their paternal to our sacerdotal ministry, and have , nothing . more at heart than to form good and ca tholic citizens, who may render themselves useful in a Christian fashion to society, by purity and solidity of faith, by irreprehensible morality and filial sub mission to the church. The ministers of the Most lligh will not fail to preach to all the pure doc trine. in order that the faith may he preserved pure in all hearts, as it was received from the Apostles of the Gentiles. Excite more and more in all real de votion to the Great Virgin Mother of God, the mother and our chief patomess, Mary, as well as to the great Apostle, our father, because the faith planted by him amongst us is ertilised by his omni potent protection, and must always have a real in crease. We also remind all that without true reli gion there is neither strength nor true felicity, and that the important affair is to obtain eternal salvo thin. We give to all who desire it our paternal benediction. Given in our Archiepiscopal Palace of the city of Valetta. June 20, 1851. The third carriage, conveying—The Equerry in Waiting, Lord A.

Her Majesty was received at the entrance of the Guildhall by the Lord Mayor and six of the senior aldermen, the chair man of the entertainment committee, and six commons councilmen, members of the committee. A procession was then formed, and her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the royal suite were conducted, amid the cheers of the company, across the hall and through the various rooms, which had been decorated for the occasion. Thence returning to the ball, her Majesty passed through a brilliant avenue of her subjects, and taking her scat upon tho throne, the ceremony of reception commenced. This was not done in the usual manner by formal announcement of the name of each person, but the company formed in lona files, and, passing the foot of the throne, made their obeisances as they passed, and were honoured by a gracious recognition from her Msty. After about an hour passed in these formalities her Majesty expressed • wish to see a dance, and a quadrille was formed, in which the members of the court present and the civic notabilities were the performers. At its conclusion the work of reception was resumed, and was alternated with dancing until the hour appointed for the royal supper Stud arrived. At 12 o'clock her Majesty left the throne, and, preceded by • second procession, descended to the crypt, where supper was laid out for the royal party. The company at her Ma. lesty's table consisted of the Queen, Prince Albert, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the Duchess of Kent, Princess Mary of Caulbridge Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar, Prince Wasa , an d th e lady Mayoress. The Lord Mayor was in attendmico upon the Queen, as were the Marquis of Westminster and the other officers of the royal household. At a side table the whole of the corps diploma tique were entertained., but none of the other visitors sat , down to supper until her Majesty had risen to depart. The appearance of the, crypt when her Majesty sat down to supper was exceedingly picturesque, and pre sented a consAerable difference from the generality of banquet haP e s in which royalty is entertained. fhe low grobw.d. arches, and the immovable men-at arms, gave. quite a feudal character to the chamber, which strongly contrasted with the modern military and court vatainev of the viaitnrs; end the round table at which her Majesty presided, laden as it was with the most massive gull and silver plate, resembled rather some feast of the 'Peacock, or other chivalric festival of former times, at which royalty was wont to do honour to knighthood, than an entertainment of the nineteenth century, at which peaceful corponitors munificently entertained their sovereign Her Majesty appeared to be in the best health and spirits, cordially enjoying the supper, and chatting with much grace and animation to the istinguished circle around her. The Lady Mayoress received repeated marks of the royal condescension, and her Majesty on rising to depart made some communication to the Lord Mayor, but it did not transpire whether any specific mark of royal Savour formed the subject of conversation. On passing the Marquis and Marchioness of Norwanby, who stood at one side of the crypt, her Majesty atolgped for some minutes, and gave those distinguished individuals a most gracious and hearty greeting. Bowing most graciously to the remainder of the company her Majesty re-ascended to the hall and drove rapidly away, amid the cheers of one of the greatest crowds that has been seen in the streets of London since the coronation. After the departure of her Majesty dancing was re-commenced with vi 4 our in the Guildhall and all the other rooms appropriated to the purpose, and the inspiritiur strains of Adams's band were heard till a late hour iu the morning. The office of announcing the visitors as they arrived was performed by Mr. Harker. TIIE ILLUMINATIONS. Although the event which last ni g ht g nus occasion to so many brilliant and ingenious demonstrations of loyalty was in a manner peculiar to the City, yet, as the illumination was not bounded by Temple Bar, our notice of its chief features may appropriately commence with the route of the royal cortige. In Pall-mall the Reform Club displayed its usual ar rangement of lights, formed by the series of lamps which surmount the area f the building. The illumination be tween Pall-mall and Charing-cross presented the ordinary variety of stars, replace I here and there by the letters V. R." or • crown. At Charing-cross the shops and public buildings began to present a more varied and daisling appearance. At Messrs. Ackerman' a pictorial transparency was exhibited, in which were seen the Queen and Prince Albert, surrounded by allegorical figures typi fying the great agents of civilisation. At the toot of the picture St. George was represented in victorious conflict with the dragon. The design was surmomted by the words " Britain's Pride," followed by this inscription: Great and clorietn, ten and free, btill 'Lamb. may she be... The illumination which next attracted notice was that displayed at Burgess's Sauce Warehouse. This consisted of the letters " V. R.," and a crown and star, the effect of which was considerably heightened by a banner extending half across the street, and bearing the following inscrip tion : England's Queen—may God bliss her with long life to reign in the hearts of the people and in the respect of the universe." From this spot to Temple-bar the street pre sented a most brilliant appearance, the great maaprity of the principal shops being handsomely illuminated, and many of them being decorated with flags. Temple Bar.—The western side of this structure pre sented a complete blaze of light. The designs and devices consisted of two large irradiated stars of Brunswick and branches of laurel, the colouring from the lamps forming the same, being considerably heightened from polished re flectors placed at the back. Underneath these was a splen did imperial crown Oil a cushion, with the jewels most beautifully defined in coloured lamps, as also the colouring of the velvet, and gimps, and tassels of the cushion; the initials " V.A.," and strolls supporting the same in pure white lamps. The architectural outlines of the columns and capitals, and the tops of the arches of the road and footpaths, also relieved by white and green lamps, as also the niches of the statues on the upper part of the gate. No less a number than 22,000 variegated lamps were employed in carrying out this illumination alone. St. bond's School, St. Paula-churchyard.—The devices consisted of an immense imperial crown, measuring 12 feet square, with two wreaths of laurel, each 21 feet in length ; two stars of Brunswick about 12 feet in diameter, and the initial " V. It." in variegated lamps. The Munsion-house.—Large imperial projecting crown, with branches of laurel ; below which was a large star of Brunswick, with the motto and Order of the Garter ; two immense wreaths of laurel, and the initials of her Majesty and l'rince Albert. The whole of this extensive display in brilliant gas jets. The Bank of England, Threadneedle-street.--Along the front of the building at the top of the several lamp posts was placed a brilliant star of Brunswick, each of these stars being united to each other by festoons firmed of brilliant gas jets. This design was greatly admired. The Royal Exchange.—The pediments and architectural details were beautifully defined by pure white lamps, and underneath the pediment were the words, " The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof," this inscription being upwards of 00 feet in length, the letters being three feet in depth. The whole of the columns were intertwined with wreaths of lamps, and the capitals were also most tastefully decorated. The East India House, Leadenhall-street.—Tho architec tural details of the pediment most tastefully defined with rows of lamps, the lower part of the same terminated by festoons and tassels in pure white lamps ; a large imperial projecting crown ; the initials, "V. A." ; two stars of Brunswick in richly coloured lamps, with immense wreaths of laurel, &c., the whole terminated by a true lover's knot. Ouildhsll.—A splendid shield of coloured glass, quartered with the arms of England and Ireland, surrounded by the order and motto of the garter, with the supporters of the arms of England (lion and unicorn rampant) beautifully defined, and surmounted by the imperial crown ; beneath, the national emblems of the rose, thistle, and shamrock, with the motto, " Dieu et mon Droit." The whole in bril liant gas. The South Sea-house, Threadneedle-street—The initials " V. A.," a large imperial crown and wreaths, in gas. The Grocers'-hall, Princes-street—Rows of pure white lamps extending along the whole front of the building; the royal initials "V. A. and large projecting imperial crown in coloured loops. The whole line of Fleet-street, Ludgate-hill, St. Paul's Church-yard, and Cheapside was one blaze of light. VISIT OF FOREIGNERS TO TIIE MIDDLESEX 1101:•4E OP CORRECTION.—On Monday P. Ibraheem Khan, the Egyptian admiral, and Syed Abdallah, with several ladies and gentlemen, and their suite, paid a visit to the Middlesex House of Correction, Coldbath-square, for the purpose of making an examination of the arrangement of the interior and of the prison discipline. The party was received by Captain Chesterton, the governor, when the went over the prison, accompanied by th e chiciofficer, and viewed the different yards and the various offices of the establishment. A few days previous M. Vanham, principal officer of the Belgian police, with some French detectives, also visited the gaol, when they inquired into the case of the German who a short time ago was committed from Bow street on the charge of stealing articles of trifling value from the counters at the Crystal Palace. The accused was not knows to them, and it was subsequently ascertained he was respectably connected. As it has been since supposed he bad no intention to steal them, application was made to Sir G. Grey, who ordered his discharge. COLLISION ON THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY. —On Tuesday evening an accident occurred to the Great Northern 4.10 p.m, express train, just as it was leaving the station in Wellington-street, Leeds. Before the train gets upon the main line it has to ascend a steep incline, and when about half-way up this incline a luggage train be longing to the Leeds and Think Company, who have a goods warehouse here, came down the incline, and whilst at a considerable speed ran into the Great Northern' train. A fearful collision took place, :sad several car riages were shattered to pieces. The engine, as usual, was at the tail end of the train, backing it out of the station, and therefore the carriages received the collision The guard jumped out of his van, whi c h was first, proba bly he would have been killed. J. Wilki nson , E sq., one of the Leeds magistrates, who was on his way to Loin tending to be present at the L or d M a y or ' s entertainmemt, was cut over the eye, and could not proceed on his journey. One or two other persons received wounds, but none of the passengers had any limbs fractured. The blame rests, it is supposed, on the driver of the Leeds and Think luggage train, who ought to have remained at the top of the incline until the Gnat Northern train had shunted out of the t station. The cardinal appears doomed to vexation of spirit wherever be betakes him within the dominions of the Bri tleh crown. lie is no friend to the law of our land, and the law returns him the compliment. From the Chroniqus de Jersey of the bth inst. we learn that his Eminence dis embarked at Guernsey on Thursday last, in time to learn that the Cour Royale had the day before decided against him in the case of the " Widow Butler r. Cardinal Wiseman." His Eminence betook himself to Guernsey when threatened by a summons from the Speaker of the House of Commons, only to fall into the jaws of the supreme court of Guernsey. The cardinal and his suite, we observe, on landing at Guernsey, quartered themselves at the parsonage of the Roman catholic chapel of Vauxhall—a name associating scenic reminiscences with a theatrical pageant of an arch bishop. But to the case of the " Widow Butler v. Wise man," which we find thus reported in the Chronique de Jersey : COUR ROYALE DE JERSEY.—JULY 2. WIDOW BUTLED V. WISDWAN. At the opening of the court this morning, Id. le Bailli said he would proceed to deliver judgment in the case, Butler v. Wiseman. The profoundest silence followed immediately upon this announcement, amid which the registrar read the subjoined judgment:—With respect to the defendant's objection to the introduction into this case of a letter written by the Rev. John Cunningham, and which the complainant de sired to use as evidence, the court considering that the said letter emanated from neither of the parties in the case, do riled on a former bearing that it should not be read. From this decision the complainant was permitted to appeal to a full court. The Court took time to consider its judgment upon the main question, and now, on this 2nd of July declared, see ing that the plaintiff having formed the design of founding in this country a new religious community made choice for this purpose of a piece of ground which was thereupon pur chased in the name of the Rey. John Cunningham, plain tiff furnishing the pecuniary consideration paid in the said contract, amounting to the sum of 1001. sterling ; that the plaintiff solicited and obtained of defendant his sanction ' for the establishment of the said community, and that in consequence of this sanction the erection of buildings was commenced, in payment for which she alleges that she made advances to the amount of 3921. sterling ; that subse quently the said John Cunningham having died, his heir resigned to the said defendant, conjointly with other par ties, the said ground with the edifices thereon erected; that the defendant having since withdrawn from the plaintiff the authorisation which lie hail given to her for the establishment of the said community, and being in possession of the said land undertook that the plaintiff should be reimbursed to the extent of the advances with interest from the date of the contract • o that of the surrender to which he had become a party, the court has , condemned the defendant to pay to the plaintiff the sum of Tool. sterling, being the suns paid for purchase of the land ' aforesaid, and also the amount of the disbursements which , she has made au account of the said building, with interest on both sums from the date of the said contract of surren der. And in order to fix the amount of the said disburse ments, the parties are ordered to go before the clerk of the court, where the plaintiff will produce her account of the said disbursements, and make oath to the accuracy of the same._ _ The reading of the judgment gave tke to a movement of marked satisfaction in the auditory. The defendant's coun sel then OTC notice of appeal. THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF ENGLAND. WINDSOR, Tnrßsaty.—The arrangements for holding the Society's show, which commences on Monday next, are nearly completed. The covered sheds fur cattle extend over a space of 6,452 feet, and are chiefly in ten-feet divisions. Tho pavilion is calculated to dine 2,009 persons. The whole of the erections, which are boarded in, includ ing the pavilion, refreshment-houses, offices, and cattle sheds, cover a space of 14 acres. 'rite dinner will take place at 4 o'clock on Wednesday, in the presence of Prince All:lett, the chair being occupied by the Duke of Richmond. The Queen and Prince Albert will arrive at Windsor on Saturday next, end it is expected that after the decision of the judges there will be a private inspection of the cattle by the royal party. The South Western and Great Western railway companies intend running excursion trains every half hour at very reduced fares, consequently shoals of vita tors will be constantly flowing in from all parts of the kingdom. The royal building at the Windsor terminus of the South Western railway, containing several elegant waiting apartments for the use of her Majesty and the royal family, wiU be completed on Saturday next. On Friday the local committee will give a dinner to the agri cultural labourers and other industrious dames, to the number of 1,000. Mr. Manning has fur that purpose placed the pavilion at the disposal of the committee. THE 131snoratc op IlomitAv.—We understand that the Bishop of Bombay, the Bev. Dr. Carr, who has been for the last few months in England on leave of absence, has plated his resignation in the hands of the proper autho rities; uad we hear also that the vacant ace has been con ferred on the Rev. Jghn IlardMg, rector of St. Andrew's by the Wardrobe and St. Ann's, Blackfriars. Mr. Harding has occupied this living for the last ten or twelve years, and he was for a considerable period honorary secretary to the Church Pastoral Aid Society.—Morning THE GREAT EXIILISITION.—The reempts amounted yesterday to 2,718/. 145., of which 84. Bs. was for season tickets; therefore, 64,374 persons must have paid Is. each. The police enumerationiwas 58,055 persons. DEATH or 1). M. Mont.—We have to announce the sudden death of Dr. Moir, of Musselburgh, the well known " Delta " of Maek.roood's ..th wiz:tree, who expired at Dumfries, at 2 o'clock on Sunday morning. Dr. Moir has been long known alike in the medical and in the literary world, and his death will occasion asa 4 blank in both. As " Delta," Dr. Moir contributed to llhalcirood's Magazine almost from its first starting, and he con.'inued to do so to the cod. Ills "Lament of Selim" appeal's in this month's number ; and a melancholy interest attach ce to it as being the last piece the lamented author ever wrist°. As a critic as well as a writer of poetry he stands deserv.•dly high; and the crowded audiences who last winter attendel his lectures on the poetry of the last half-century will long remember them as models of popular criticism—at once olcar, con densed, and animated, and delivered with a rammer that would have lent interest to far inferior criticism. Ito has left a wife and eight children, the eldest of whom is now the wife of Dr. Scott, who for many years has been the able and successful partner of his father-in-law. fly all svho knew him, and ~more especially by his fellow-townsmen, Dr. Moir was much beloved; and, at the urgent request of the inhabitants of Musaelburgh, his funeral will be a public our. It is to take place on Thursday at 2 o'clock, in the churchyard of Inveresk, and will doubtless be attended by many of his friends and admirers in this city.—Edinbary4 Advertiser. CALEDONIAN RAILWAY GUARANTEED INTERESTS.— . On Tuesday meetings of the Glasgow, Gnrnkirk, and Coat bridge (111r.A.Baird presiding), the Clydesdale Junction (Mr. Pritchard presiding), and the Wishaw and Coltness Railway ICompanies (Mr. Glasgow presiding), all guaranteed in terests of the Caledonian Company, were held in Glasgow for the purpose of considering and determining in regard to a bill proposed to be introduced into the House of Lords entitled " An Act to sanction certain arrangements entered into between the Caledonian ltailway Company and the holders of the guaranteed and preferential interests of the company, and to enable the company to raise a further Ruin of money." At the Glasgow, Gamkirk, and Coatbridge, and the Clydesdale Junction lailway meetings reports were read from the respective committees appointed to attend to the interests of the companies while the bill was in progress through parliament. These reports generally detailed the negotiations which had taken place between the committees and the Caledonian Company, for securing to these companies better arrange ments and privileges in the management and carrying on of their lines than had been given them in the bill which had previously been laid before the shareholders. These concessions had either been agreed to by the Caledonian Company or enforced by the House of Commons; and us the bill now stood they had no hesitation in recommending it to the unanimous approval of the shareholders. They re commended, however, that the shareholders should petition against a clause in the bill, which reserved certain rights to Mr. Baxendale, of London, which other shareholders did not possess. Should this clause, however, not be altogether expunged or modified, the committees recommended that the bill should be prosecuted through parlia ment, rather than he required to fall back upon their legal remedies. The heads of the bill having been read over, a resolution was proposed at such meeting to the effect that the bill be approved of, and that it be re mitted to the directors to concur with the other guaranteed companies in prosecuting the same through its remaining stages, with such amendments as might be found necessary, in parliament; but, while approving of the bill as a whole, instructing the committees to endeavour to vet the 24th section, or Mr. Besendalea, expunged or modified, and to take all steps necessary for that purpose; but, in the event of the committee failing in their endeavours, they were in structed, notwithstanding, to proceed with the bill, unless any alterations were introduced inconsistent with the memorandum of agreement, in which case the com mittees were empowered to use their own discre tion, either in withdrawing or prosecuting the bill. This resolution was agreed to, and the meeting separated. At the meeting of the Wishaw and Coltness Railway Company, after the various heads of the bill had been read over, a similar resolution was proposed and unanimously agreed to.—A meeting of the Barrhead and Neilston Company was advertised to have been held , for the same purpose, hut the Chairman intimated that the shareholders desired that the meeting should be adjourned to admit of some communication being made with the other guaranteed interests. Tho meeting was accordingly adjourned till Monday next. MORE MILITARY RIOTINO IN LIVERPOOL—No sooner had the 91st Regiment been removed from Everton Barracks—some being sent to Manchester, and others to Bury and Preston—than the 28th Regiment occupied their places, and, it would seem, adopted their feelings of hostility to the police. On two successive evenings this week collisions have taken place between the two forces. Police man 174 was attacked most brutally by a soldier of the 28th and, when assistance arrived, a general melee between the soldiers and police took place. By great forbearance the pollee succeeded in preven!ing any dangerov. results from th,'s violence until a picquet from the barracks had been procc rod, into whose custody the soldiers were consigned, sa d they will be dealt with by the military authnyities. ENUNCIATION OF THE PRESS BY THE ARCHBISHOP OF RHODES (MALTA). gbe Court. lier Majesty and Prince Albert arrived at the Exhibition of the Works of ,Industry of All Notions at 20 minutes past 9 o'clock yesterday morning, attended by the Hon.

The Lord Lieutenant held a chapter of the Order of St. Patrick on Thursday last, for the purpose of investing Lord Massareno and Ferrard with the in signia of the order. Oa Monday, his Excellency, attended by Major Ponsonby (aide-de-camp), by his private secretary, and Sir Thomas Redington, proceeded on foot from the Viceregal Lodge to the Mouatjoy Barracks, occu pied by the constabulary, in the Phoenix-Park, and entered into a minute inspection, for the purpose chiefly of investigating the project of an additional building proposed to be erected at the west wing, to be used as a convalescent hospital, with the view that he might recommend the subject to the Board of Woods and Forests, in order that a grant of the ground required should be had, and that the Board of Works might have permission to erect the building required. His Excellency expressed himself highly gratified with the result of his inquiries. The discussions at the present sittings of the general assembly of the presbyterian church of Ire land are characterised by more than usual warmth. Such episodes as the following occur repeatedly at almost every day's sittings: Dr. Brown, at the sede runt of Friday last, having charged Dr. Cooke with being formerly opposed to the Confession of Faith, a scene of tremendous uproar ensued. Dr. Cooke rose; the uproar redoubled; the crowds in the passage, where Dr. Brown stood, rushed up, and all was confusion fur a moment. Dr. Cooke's voice at length was heard rising above the din, exclaiming—lt.is a vile calumny; it is false. Dr. Brown—l repeat that what I state is a fact. Dr. Cooke—l repeat it is false ; and I add, it is one of the most unfounded statements a man could make. (Uproar.) Mr. Rodgers—Call order, Moderator. Is Dr. Cooke to be permitted to proceed in this manner ? (Uproar.) Dr. Cooke—Yes, Sir, he is to be permitted to proceed, as long as he proceeds in order, as he does now. Mr. Rodgers—You .were not interrupted when speak ing. Dr. Brown listened to your speech in patience — (hisses) —and you interrupt him every moment. Dr. Cooke—And 1 will interrupt any person who speaks untruth. Mr. Rodgers—The Moderator ruled that a person was not to be interrupted while speaking, but be replied to when he had concluded. Dr. Cooke —Unless when men say what is not true. Mr. Rodgers—Now, I ask you, Moderator, is this to be permitted. Mimes from the gallery.) 1 ask the Assembly, as there a Christian here can tolerate the language used by Dr. Cooke? (Uproar.) Dr. Cooke—l will again repeat what I said before, that the assertion, as regards me, is a vile calumny. (Increased uproar) Dr. Brown—l will prove it by several witnesses. Dr. Cooke—l care nothing about your false witnesses; Christ was sentenced on the testimony of false witnesses. Moderator—Order, order. Proceed, Dr. Brown. Mr. Gamble—A word, Moderator; I cant't stand hero —(uproar, cries of " Order," and " Hear Dr. Brown ')-1 cant't stand here—(cries of " Sit down, then ")—one word, Moderator, I can't stand hero sad listen to Mr. Itchd use the expres:ion lie did when Dr. Cooke said Christ was convicted by false witnesses. (A Voice—That was private conversation, Gamble.) When Dr. Cooke mentioned Christ, Mr. Reid said—" You have nothing to do with him." (" Oh, oh," and great outcry.) Mr. Reid—l said no such thing, sir ; your assertion is untrue. (Oh, oh.) Mr. Gamble—l assert you did. (Uproar.) Mr. Reid—l did nut, sir; and you ore very wrong in persisting in such an insinuation against a brother minister, when you arc told it is untrue. Mr. Gamble—l am satisfied now (looking towards 1)r. Cooke) ;I am satisfied. (Then turning to Mr. Reid, and leaning over his pew)—Well, what (lid you say? A conversation sotto yore was held up between both rev. gentlemen, mingled with snatches of remarks on the occur rence, continued for some moments. Many of the expres sions used were harsh, but, as they were uttered more " aside " than in part of the proceelliuga of the meetiug, we refrain from mentioning them here. The new trial in the case of Captain Wynne against , the Marquis of Westmeath, commenced on the 7th before the Chief-Baron and a special jury in the Court of Exchequer. This ease, which is now for the third time before a jury, is an action for libel allei , ed to be contained in a petition to the House of 'Ands, published in certain newspapers, and imput ing to the plaintiff immoral conduct while tilling the office of Poor Law Inspector in the Carrick-on- Shannon Union. The defendant tiled pleas of justi fication to the effect that the charges made were true. On the first trial the jury disagreed, and on the second there was a verdict for the plaintin; which was afterwards act aside, on the ground of surprise. SPORTING.
