The president also pointed to what bad bees done in Africa by Dr. Livingstone and others, and congratulated the society ea the feet that it wee now proved that the interior of Allies was sot the monatassons barns desert which had bees supposed. He next turned to Australis: and deacribed the labours of the mw who had explored that country. The proceeding of the morning were followed up in the evenung by a banquet gives at Willis'.

Rewlinsoo, th e Right Hon. S. Walpole, /LP., Sir John Rennie, C.E., Count Strzeleeki, Colonel Sykes, M.P., and lir. Fairbairn, late president of the society. The chairman, in giving the health of the distioguished foreigners who had that day honoured the society with their preessoe, especially referred to the Comte de Park. It was within his knowledge that that prince had profited as much am it was possible for him to do by the attentive cultiva tion of scientific pursuits since his coming to this country. He might well say that he spoke with personal knowledge of the fact, for, in the department of science over w hich be (the choirman) unworthily presided, his royal high ness was one of his pupils. (Cheers.) His royal high ness had also studied under Professor Hoffman as a chemist—not theoretically bat practically—for he bad worked in the laboratory and at the profeasor's table In a manner !het seamed for him a well-merited dis tinction. (Cheers.) But his royal highness was also a great traveller. He had travelled over vast regime of America—a country in which he had displayed the most distinguished valour. He lied travelled through Syria and var i ous parte of Europe ; and, lastly, in order to entitle him to the sympathise of the compauy, he might mention that his royal highness bad that osmium intimated his de sire to become a member of the society. (Loud cheers.) There being loud calls for his royal highness. the Comte de Paris said—Sir Roderick Mumbles), I am really quite un prepared to respond to the toast which you have so 'nth°. Identically received on babel( of the several very distin guished gentlemen whom I see around me. Still. I snot avoid expreening how much pleasure I feel at being per mitted to take part is the proceedings of so distinguished an assembly. (Loud obsess.) RUSSIA. Private letters received in Paris from Russia state that in many parts of the empire extreme agitation prevails, caused, it would seem, by the Polish insurrection. Extracts from one of these letters ore given by the Prase. The following are the extracts referred to : The prooleniations of the Notional Committee in the old Polish provinces promise the peanuts, in addition to the gratuitous concession of the laud they cultivate, the re-establishmeot of the old constitution—that is to say, the representations of the undoes and the dminis►rative autonomy which existed in those districts before the first division. It is asserted that the effect of the Polish move• went makes itself felt as far as Odessa, Cheroots, and Nicolaieff. In the Est•named city the telegraphic station has been reduced to ashes. A certain amount of agitation prevails at Chanson and Nieolaieff. In Finland the Russian authorities are straining every nano to wrieg loyal ad dresses from the constituted bodies and the inhabitants, with the object of deceiving Europe respecting the real eetsti meets of the nation. The Prase thinks that there may be some ex aggeration in these statements, but admits that they completely coiucide with information which has reached it from other sources. _ _ Some statistics of the Russian budget for the year 1863 have been published, from which it appears thst the estimated receipts are 318,000,000 roubles, and the estimated expenses 330,535,000 roubles. The deficiency is thus 12,535,000 roubles. It is proposed to meet this deficiency by the issue of treasury bills at 44 per cent., which are to be paid off in eight years. The increase in the ,expenditure is caused by the necessity of placing she army on a war footing in order to oope with the Polish insurrection. A correspondent of the Russian organ, the Nord, adduces u an evidence of the movement of national feeling in Russia, the fact that the fashionable ladies of ]Moscow have resolved to purchase in future nothing but borne-made materials of dress, and that they have sent circulars throughout the country requesting the other sex to follow their example. The correspondent of the Nord thinks that it would be well to follow up this movement by introducing the national language into polite asciety, where French at present prevails.

(ans% TwasamaL) OPENING OF THE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT. SPEECH OF THE KING. TURIN, NAT 25. At eleven this morning his Majesty opened in person the parliamentary session of 1863 with the following speech : " Gincrizmart Sracirons, Omens:new Dwerruss, " In opening the new session as King of Italy, I have to thank you for what you have done during • period of upwards of two years. You have , secured the rights of the nation to its complete unity, and I shall know how to maintain them in their integrity. " You first commenced your parliamentary labours at the time when Providence had taken from I UN the illustrious man who ao powerfully assisted me in the difficult enterprise of our regeneration. All Italy shared the sorrow which I felt for his look " Meet of the foreign powers have recognised the yew kingdom. Our voice will make itself heard among theirs for the triumph of justice and for the defence of the principles of liberty and nationality. " The marriage of my daughter with the King of Portugal, while consecrating • useful alliance between two free states, has proved to me, as ever, that the joys of my family are also those of the nation. " Treaties of commerce have been concluded with France, Belgium, Sweden, and Turkey, and others are about to be negotiated with England and Holland. Thus, by community of interests between the peoples, friendly relations grow up between the governments. " Within two years from the campaign of the glorious sub• Alpine army, the soldiers of our new provinces have been organised, and we are now proud of an Italian army brilliant alike by it s valour and solid in its discipline. Our navy, rich with so many great elements, and to the develop ment of which you have devoted so much solicitude, will equal in progress the renown the army has attained. "My most ardent desire is that the nation may be able to reckon with security upon the force of its own arms, and that Europe should recognise this fact, "Liberty is producing its natural results of order and prosperity in all directions. If the public safety requires efficacious measures in some pro vinces, my government will not fail in this supreme duty. The national guards, who have already deserved so well of the country, will contribute to this object by their zeal. With the same view Frame is ready to associate herself with us in the adoption of military arrangements whenever she perceives the opportunity. " Public works are carried on with activity in all the provinces of the kingdom. The Trout* has already been passed by the locomotive, and all parts of Italy, already united by feeling, will be still more bound together by facility of communi. cation. " Your most urgent task is to consolidate the laws of the kingdom, at the 'same time favouring the development of all local forces. " Above all, I recommend to the solicitude of parliament some arrangements relative to the re organisation of the finances. The capitals of Europe have responded to our appeal with confi dence in the new order of things. It is for us a debt of honour to reply to this confidence by our promptitude to impose upon ourselves the neces sary sacrifices. " Garniaas SZNATOIB, Giarmadzx DEPUTIES, " To consolidate liberty with the constitution for its basis, and by liberty to win the complete independence and unity of the country, such is the end to which we have consecrated our life. To attain it, concord, wisdom, and energy, are equally necessary. Italy has shown that she pos sesses thole qualities in the highest degree. By persevering in the same path, no human force will be able to destroy the edifice we have raised, and it is with entire security and faith that I anticipate the hour of the accomplishment of the destinies of Italy." THE POLISH INSURRECTION. CZERNOWITZ, MAT 24. News has been received here that Kamniecpo. dolsk is in a state of insurrection. Russian troops have been ordered to proceed thither by forced marches. TURKEY. VIENNA, MAT 25. Private telegrams, dated Constantinople, May 23, state that the apprehensions entertained at Doran° of the landing in Albania of a detachment of Italian volunteers have been increased by the appearance of an Italian squadron off the Albanian coast.

'lHg WHITBIINTIDI BOLLDATS.—Upwards of 36.000 holiday folk visited the Crystal Palace yesterday, partly attracted by the beauty of the place, and partly by the round of amusements specially provided for the mos- Moe. Ample music was provided by the company's bead, the band of the Coldstream Guards, sad the great organ. The amusements comprised some extraordinary perfouri.- emcee by Moos. Silvan', the great leerier ; Mr. Arthur Baron, the champion sauteur; Mockery the inimitable, the Eliot flintily, and two clever Frenchmen whom feats elicited shouts of applause. Besides these, Mr. Coxwell made an ascent from the grounds in his mammoth balloon, The fountains were also displayed. With the steep iioo of the balloon anent the whole of the *main masts will be repeated this day (Tuesday), and con tinued till Friday. The Zoological Society's gardens in the Regent's-park, always a favourite resort of the Londouers an their national festival of Whit-Monday. were more than staidly crowded yesterday. From nine in the morniog until a late hoer in the alternate long streams of holiday-makers poured into the satiation and so filled the gardens that there was, at any period, hardly space left to peso along the walks. The total number of visitors at the close of the gates was ascertained to be 30,374, a larger number than has ever before been admitted to the audios in one day. Dounlan the great Marna* of the number of viritors to this popular place is due to she constant addi tions that are cootinnilly being made to the collection of animals, which at the present time is greater than at any former period; and also to the grestiro o rovemente in the buildings that have recently been ad and other that me sow in course of erection. The Bribah Museum, Ns- Mosel Gallery, and other places of amusement and instruc tion in the metropolis, were attended by large numbers of visitor. • I NlOlO Runway= rei TBJ Wier . — There is a gnat demised is Gemmel Great's army for positions in the MVO sow tram. • oorrespoadent of the Chiang: 4 M nays Eves Geseral Gorman bee made applicanka to be plead is commend of a negro brigade.

(nom Air OCCAMONAL CORRISPONDIMIT.) NAPLES, MAY 16. The Director of the Ecclesiastical Treasury (Ca' Ecelesiastica) of the suppressed monastic houses of the Neapolitan provinces recently pub lished a full report of the operations and present state of that administration from the beginning of 1861 to the end of 1862. This suppression has been one of the most important events in the last Italian revolution, and I think it will interest many people in England to know bow this delicate question has been dealt with by the Italian governmeut, as well as the extent of their measures and some statistical data. A few words of history must precede. Everybody knows that Italy was, from the fifth century, one of the greatest strongholds of Imo , nachism in Europe, being the centre of that *axle- I siastical system, whence it was spread to carry the truth of Christian religion abroad. It had its period of greatness, not unmixed with evils, which caused its decline. It was revived, however, at the period of the Reformation, when monacbism of every kind was more or less trained so as to oppose a barrier to every idea of religious, civil, and political liberty. We need scarcely say, in justice to the Italians, that the most dangerous of the monastic orders, the Jesuits, were founded in Spain, whence they found their way to Rome. •At the end of the last century, however, they were all swept away by the French Revolution, which in vaded Italy ; and people remember still the saying of the First Napoleon : Poeti prod Nieste frail Tart[ soldati. The restoration of the Italian princes brought them back in large numbers, but the suppression of a good many of the houses was acquiesced in ; and they re-established nearly all the mendicant orders because they had no property to give them back, and those monasteries whose members were consi dered strenuous supporters of the throne and the altar—that is to say, despotism and superstition. Though very much reduced in number, however, they were not reduced in power, and they made themselves more obnoxious than before to every branch of progress. No wonder, therefore, if at every outbreak of the liberal party in the penin sula those religious associations were the first in stitution., against which people vented their indigna tion, more especially those of the Jesuits. Revolution, then, was scarcely triumphant in the Neapolitan provinces, and Gaeta bad scarcely been taken, than a decree of the Prince of Carignan'. administration (17th February, 1861) suppressed indiscriminately all nunneries and monasteries, and declaredall they possessed the property of the crown, and placed wider the patronage of ,the statepollegiate churches, church benefices, chaplainships, abbeys, livings, and other similar foundations. Many people questioned the opportuneness of such an irritating measure against a very large body of most influential men, having adherents among all classes of society, and made more formidable by their compact organization, at a moment when the newly-established government was in need of sup port from every quarter. But the liberal party claimed the consummation of their victory. Econo mical principles made the measure appear useful and advisable, besides it was one of those points more likely to succeed if carried by storm than if weighed by calm discussion. In Sicily, in fact, although much longer in the hand of radical governors, the measure was not adopted, and the government find it difficult to discuss the subject before Parliament, as some Sicilian members have expressed an opinion contrary to it. It so happened, however, that the government itself, through • mistake which can only be ex plained by the rapid change of men in power, and by the multifarious questions which engaged their minds, forfeited a good many of the advantages of the decree by delaying for nearly ten months its execution. The consequence of this delay was to perplex the minds of the liberals, and to weaken the authority of the new government, for while the first were all for radical measures, the legions of friars and priests spread the report that the government would not dare to challenge their influence. They were allowed, meanwhile, to col lect their rents, of which they made use to help the cause of the Pope, the brigands, and the Bour bons, while many properties changed hands by forged conveyances, many titles of endowments were destroyed, figures were altered, and all moveable effects of, great value disappeared without any chance of ever being recovered. At last the Camas Ecclesiastics, or Ecclesiastical Treasury, was established, to which the duty devolved of taking possession of the properties of the sup pressed houses, administering them, paying pensions out of their income to their members, and giving in formation to the parliament and government upon everything which was declared to be the special object of that department. The refusal of the monks to produce the inventories of the properties and the registers of their revenue, the opposition of the nuns to allow the government officers to pene. trate into their convents, the compulsion which they were obliged to make use of in Order to have the law respected, and the scenes of excitement which were thus produced in country places, in the midst of an ignorant and superstitious people, are so many fea tures of the Italian revolution of which very little has transpired abroad, but which may be consi dered no less dramatic and interesting under their social aspects than Garibaldi's achievements and Cialdini's victories are as feats of arms. Notwithstanding all this, out of 1,107 religious houses which, in the absence of exact statistical infor mation, had been registered as falling under the decree of suppression, 927 had been taken possession of by the government at the end of December, 1862. Of these 1,107 establishments, 647 were declared as belonging to mendicant and 460 to endowed orders ; 840 were inhabited by monks, and 267 by nuns ; and of 927 already suppressed, 698 are of the first, and 229 of the second ; so that there remain at present 180 unsnppreaaed establishments, 142 of men and 38 of women, of which 133 are endowed and 47 mendicants. The members of the 460 endowed establish ments amount to 8,954, of which 1,983 are men and 6,971 women ; 238 of the first and 432 of the second live still in communities. The members of the mendicant orders in the 459 out of 637 establishments which were suppressed at the end of last year are 6,475, of which 6,386 are males and only 89 females. So that we have a total of 14,755 people who have nearly all returned to society— that is to say, 8,131 men and 6,524 women. There [Stamped, Id. Additional.] remains to ascertain the numbers of 188 mendicant establishments, which may be reckoned at nearly 3,000, making altogether 17,000 people. The inventory of the properties of every kind be longing to the 460 endowed monasteries has not as yet very much advanced, on account of the diffi culties thrown in the way by the interested parties. We have a return of only 214 of them, which states an income of 3,185,014 Italian lire, that is to say, an average rent of 14,883 lire for each establishment, so that the total income may be reckoned at 6,846,350 lire, or a capital at 4 per cent. of 171,158,755. To this must be added money invested in the public funds to the amount of 350,296 lire, representing a capital of 7,592,000, making altogether nearly 180 millions of francs, whicii become the property of the state. This calculation, however, cannot be reckoned de finitive until the inventory is completed. One of the first obligations which the adminis trators of the Cana Ecclesiastics had to fulfil was that of assigning and paying a pension to each member of the suppressed monastic establishments. Here a contest of another kind retarded the ope ration, to the great discontent of a large number of these idle bodies, who had time and breath to spare in abusing the government, and had will enough to embarrass it to the utmost of their power. Intrigues of every kind were set at work either to make the number appear much larger than it was, in order to extend to friends and relatives the benefit of the pension, or to shift from a poorer into a richer order, so as to obtain a larger pension, or to con ceal documents in order to enrich partisans of the Bourbons. The government officials were obliged, therefore, to establish searching and vexatious in quiries, to cross-examine aumberlses people, and to extract revelations which were made little by little, partly through fear, partly through interest, of titles of property and valuable documents. By this time, however, 9,000 monks and nuns are in reoeipt of regular pensions, and the rest are provi sionally aided by the same fund. The same administration was also called upon, by especial clause of the law of suppression, to provide for the charitable and useful institutions annexed to the suppressed establishments, and for the public worship. Local committees of the meet respected citizens were appointed in each locality, to whom the duty devolved of fixing the sum necessary for the object, according to the usages of the place and the requirements of the church services. Next to monastic establishments, the collegiate churches, also most richly endowed, were not spared by the decree of suppression. They are at present 192, many of which are already under state patronage. The church benefices and livings, chaplainships, and abbeys, which were recognised to the date of the report are 397, and 369 of them have been taken possession of. Their number, however, seems infinite, for in Gerace, a small commune of Calabria, with a population no larger than 6,355 inhabitants, fifty-five church benefices were discovered through the fourth part of a torn document which had been somewhere concealed. At Cajauo, with a population of nearly 6,000, thirty-one benefices have been registered. 130 that the reporter argues that there must be se veral thousands through the country. Lastly, there were the so-called Conference dells Mission, a spe cial institution of the city of Naples, whose members went preaching about and dispensing alms during their mission. They were dependent on the Archbishop of Naples. They also have been suppressed, and their properties, to the amount of nearly seven millions, have gone to increase the ecclesiastical treasury. The 1,107 monasteries and nunneries had as many buildings. Of these only 162 have been entirely or partially turned into barracks, military or civic hospitals, or educational institutions. Others will be adapted gradually to the same objects, or dis posed of otherwise. The libraries have been des tined to enrich the provincial colleges, or to form the nucleus of municipal or local libraries for the people. The pictures, statues, and other objects of art have been left at their places, but two inspectors of the Museum of Naples have been charged with a complete inventory, and a full description of them. All ancient historical docu ments and parchments of historical value have been deposited in the great royal archives of Naples. These are the principal features of the report I have tried to condense, leaving out, for the sake of brevity, much which would have been interesting to many of your readers. The work, as may be seen, is unfinished ; but its main part is already accomplished, and it will prove a great boon to the country. I must leave to another occasion the particulars of a most useful institution, to which some of the few surviving monastic establishments are lending their aid, in keeping with the spirit of the age—l mean the Agricultural and Naval Reformatories for young vagabonds or juvenile criminala.

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. Last evening Meyerbeer's Le Prop/tile was given fee the first time this season with all that manic splendour and general completeness ',Lich so honourably characterise the representations of spectacular opera at Mr. Citys'a theatre. All the old glories of the coronation scene, the skating scene, ten, with the surpassing triumphs of the band and chorus, were renewed, while Signor Tamberllle, Madame NantierDidih (for whom an apology was made without any apparent reason), Signor Tegliafico, and M. Zelger re appeared respectively as John of Leyden, Fides, ()berthed, and Zaccaria, with undiminished excellence and effect. Mdlle. Dottini, who played, for the first time, we believe, the somewhat ungrateful part of Bertha, acquitted herself creditably ; and the subordinate characters were, as on pre. ' Mous occasions, well supported by Signori Lucchesi, Semi, and lieri-Baraldi. The house was very full. DRURY-LANE. The first of the performances for the benefit of Mr. Lumley took place last night, and proved highly rim oceduL Every part of the theatre wee u full as possible, and from the rates of edmission—gaima tickets for the pit and balcony stalls, and other prices in proportion—the hired* most have been a Ter, imbitantial one. Mr. Lamb* well deserves the tribute of gratitude and respect now paid to him by the mailed public. The period of twenty yea% whoa the mama meet of Her Majesty's Theatre was in his hands, will be memorable in the annals of the Italian opera in England. During the greatest part of that period he assembled on the boards of that theatre the most splendid company in Europe. He was equally motive and judicious in discovering and bringing forward the greatest talent wherever it waa to be found; and certainly some of the brightest stars who now shed their lustre over the musical stage owe to him the foundation of their present celebrity. The MOO that these great performers entertain ol their obligations to him, and their feelings of gratitude for his conduit during the period of their connexion with him, have bean strikingly e►inced bythe graceful manner la which they have now come forward to assist him. And their having dose too in the way they have done is an emphatic testimony to the excellence of his character. Performances of this kind can scarcely be regarded as proper subjects of criticism ; but were it otherwise that of last night could meet with nothing but eulogy. The opera wail La Trariate, • piece well chosen for the rwappear. 'nos of the charming Picoolomini, so greet • hematite of the public. Tv. lady, DOW the Kuehn" Gaetani„ has cone all the way from Florence for the express and only purpose of joining in this tribute to her old friend and manager, after which she finally returns to the retirement from which she has, for the moment and with so amiable • motive, emerged. This was evidently le the minds of the audience who she presented hermit Wars them ; for she was noshed with what may well be called • storm of cheers and aeolarnatioae such as we have rarely heard within the walls of a theatre. Millie. Phoolomini—it is pleasant to call her so once mars— h little changed, and by no means for the worse. She has becoms stouter and rounder in figure, but it is the embonpoint <dormant, which detracts nothing from her beauty. Her face retains all it' brightness and variety of expression, her movements all their grace, sod her voice all its brillianzy : it seemed to us even to be im proved in strength and firmnees, without losing anything of iti flexibility and sweetnesa. Her performance of the cha racter mint be fresh in the memory of our musical readers, end certainly she never performed it better—never acted with greater feeling, and sever sang more c.harmirigly than she did List night. The applause she received was hammeat and enthusiastic. The opera, moreover, has seldom been more carefully pat upon the stage, or better performed as • whole. Ginglini was magnificent, and Della Sadie. by the exquisite beauty of his singing, and the intelligence and feeling of his acting, gave an extraordinary interes► and effect to the character of the elder Clermont. At the sod of the opera, after the principal perfortnere had made their usual appearance before the curtain, a call was made for Mr. Lumley from all parts of the house. He came forward, led oo by Signor Giuglini, and received the warmest greeting that the audience could bestow. M. THALBEItG'S MATINEE'S!. The first appearance this season of the renowned pianist N.

CREMORIVE GARDERS. Yesterday evening what may be called the re gular lesson was opened at Cremoree Gardens; sad • foretaste of the novelties of the entertainments which are to be provided for the present year was afforded to ► large throng of visitors. We say a foretaste, because although there was • bill of fare of no small dimensions, which was carried out in all its integrity, yet the greet feature of the season, is to be a series of Tour namenta, which will be held in the large atehburnham Pavilion, and for which the most elaborate preven tion in the shape of armour costumed, and hone furniture of the most costly description is being made, ad in a very short time there will be continual jousting and tilting and shivering of lances, carried on with much greater spirit and with greater verisimilitude than anything which has been attempted in modern times. It iv to be under stood that there is not to bee single tourniunent, but tour naments are to form part of the regular sights at this place of entertainment. The amusements commenced as early as four o'clock, and continued without intermission until twelve. There were amongst other things acrobatic performances by the Japanese Family. trained dogs and monkeys, and equestrian performances in the circus. One great source of attraction was • perform ance d is Bloedin, by Signor Taleri ; but, unlike Moodie, this remarkable artist does not walk on • huge rope, but on a single wire, over which he perm with a steadiness and grace which must be very difficult of attainment. He per formed twice : at one time in the open air, over • spas almost co-exteneive with the length of the gardens ; and inside the grand theatre, walking backwards and forwards, in baskets and blindfolded, sad is every respect achieved& gnat success. But thereat strikieg feature of the evening was a Grand Musical Magical Masque, which was produced in • manner that would have bees surprising in any theatre in the metropolis, but which was wholly unexpected here. Scarcely, ever, if at all, has more tasteful and beautifully-painted scenery been exhi bited on a stage; sad the dresses were rich, picturesque, and costly. Of course there were fireworks is plenty sad variety, and on the whole it may be said that the meson has commenced auspiciously, and not the lam be cause the class of entertainment given is of • much higher order then has hitherto characterimed these gardeusslaeg singing, negro (so-called) melody, and the low sonic element sad all that sort of this& having disappeared altogether.
