THE CRYSTAL PALACE PLUWER 81-10 W. ..:—..-- The exhibition of autumn flowers, which eons :Deuced yesterday and will be closed to-sight, ill one of no usual magnitude and excellence. The stands of flowers sod fruits till a good portion of both naves, and are crowded with some of the moat beautiful specimens of bora ; cultural art perhaps ever witnessed. The dahlias first attract attention. The collection of these floe flowers Pis undoubtedly the best that has been exhibited this season. It is a peat improvement upon the show of laat year, and the steads are graced by many new and striking varieties. The raters, both French and German, are likewise numerous, and of first-rate quality. There are some excellent rases, but of course they cannot be comparederith the special show held in Jane. The hollyhocks are very remarkable. This is a flower which is daily attracting more and more attention from florists, and every year shows a marked improvement. No one, is fact, can compare the blooms now at the Crystal Palace with those of last summer without being struck with the advance that has been made. The verbenas are very splendid. In deed, the trays of this beautiful flower appeared to attract more ►ttentioo than almost any other. The gorgeous gladi olus was probably never more gorgeous than in its repre sentatives at Sydenham ; and flowers of greater merit were perhaps never shown than those of Yr. Standish, of Bag shot, or of Messrs. Youell, of Yarmouth. With regard to the fruit, language would fail to give a full idea of the charm which it appears to possess for the visitors. It perhaps does not speak well for the poetical geeing of our people, but Pomona evidently beats ;Flora hollow in the public appreciation. The pines were superb, and the grapes seem almost miraculous. There is a very interesting show of orchard-bowie trees by Messrs. Lane and Sou, of Berk hampatead. The judges for dowers were Messrs. Holmes, Robinson. C. Tuner, and F. E. Kinghorne, and the Rev. H. Dom. blabs. For fruit they were Mesas. R. Solomon, A. Stewart, and E. ROM. The attendance yesterday was very large, equal, or per haps superior, to that which was attracted during the Inter national year. It may be remarked, in conclusion, that the grounds of the Palace themselves constitute just now a dower show of no slight merit. The recent rains have freshened the toe, and the green glades again look almost their best, while the bedding plants never wore a more brilliant or charming appearance.

Aftarasaa. 4h. 43m. LONDON, WEDNESD A I', SEPTEMBER L " CONSIDER yourself horsewhipped," is • well known formula; and any one to whom it is addressed knows perfectly what it means. It is a compendious form of challenge which must either be accepted or treated with contempt. But the War-office seems to have invented a new formula, which seems to amount to this—" Con " eider yourself pardoned." Mr. BAULKS, the late Paymaster in the Enniskillen, is probably the first person to whom this formula has been addressed. And it would certainly be interesting to know what interpretation the Mrsurrra of Wan attaches to it. It will be remembered that Mr. Smarm war the Paymaster who was (insetted oat of the army in consequence of the finding of the Mhow Court-martial, but before the proceedings of the court had been submitted to the JUDOS ADVOCATZ. Since then the authorities in this country have pronounced the proceedings of that court illegal, and have also granted what is called a " pardon " to the unfortunate victim, the Paymaster. To the uninitiated it might seem that mach • pardon ought to have the effect of restoring Mr. Smarms to the position from which he was deposed by the finding of the illegal court-martial. Had that court never assembled he would still have been an officer in the QUEEN'S service ; the COMMANDLR-IN-Cuter would have had no authority to cashier this officer without the finding of • court-martial, and an illegal finding ought surely to be equiva lent to no finding at all. When an ordinary prisoner is convicted at the maims, and a point of law is reserved or a writ of error is brought, he is restored to liberty the moment the point of law or the writ of error is determined in his favour. The same principle ought to be applicable to Mr. SMALLS. Accordingly, that gentleman, having been told that her MaasarY had granted him a pardon because the proceedings of the court which tried him were "vitiated," applied "for his " pay as • Paymaster, and that his name " might be noted for immediate active em " ployment." In reply he ramivcd • letter in which the SICRETARY of STATE for WAR says he has been advised that the pardon which her MaararrY had been pleased to grant him has left him in the position of a civilian, and that there fore he is not entitled to receive any pay ; and further, that it is not the intention of Earl Ds Gamy and RIPON to submit his name to the Quirsis far appointment as • Paymaster. In other words, Mr. SMALIS, having been illegally cashiered, is to consider himself pardoned, but is to remain in precisely the same condition and subject to pre cisely the same penalties as if he had been legally cashiered and had received no pardon. It ap pears, therefore, that this unfortunate gentleman has been pardoned and has not been pardoned, has been cashiered and has not been cashiered. With a cruel ingenuity wFch does credit to the legal adviser of the Wan MINISTER, Mr. Smarms is deprived of his grievance by having received a pardon, and yet labours under the very grievance of which be originally complained. Surely this is not the sort of spirit in which such a man as Lord Ds GRIT might be expected to treat the officers in the British army. It is impossible to deny that Mr. SMALLS was guilty of great indiscretion, and even of insubord:nation, in addressing the letter which he did address to his commanding officer. But the pro vocation was extreme the regiment was practically in a state of mutiny—officers and men of the most unimpeachable character were driven to desperation. Colonel CRAWL EY himsel' is now to be pr: on his trial, and therefore it was not fitting that Paymaster Smarms should be visited with the most serious punishment which can be inflicted upon an officer. Even if the c,nrt-martial had been conducted with the most scrupulous regard to the principles of justice, it would have been a ;neons question stethe- some mercy should not be shown to the victim of Colo nel CRAWLSY'S tyranny. But when a War Minister found that the whole proceedings of the court-martial were so utterly illegal • that they must be set aside, it is strange indeed that the Minister did not see the necessity of granting • free pardon to Mr. Smarm. It cannot have escaped the recollection of many that Colonel Cratwutir himself, after being severely rebuked by the COMILANDEN-IN• CHIEF, was still allowed to retain his commend in order that he might retrieve his character. Such an indulgence would have been more just had it been extended to Mr. SX&LES. There may per • be some principle upon which an officer who has been illegally deprived of his com mission must submit to his lot, even after the illegality is admitted. But the principle is not one with which lawyers are familiar. At all events, whatever the strict law may be, it is only after em oful investigation and ample proof that officers are deprived of their commissions or of the value of them. If Mr. SMALLS has been guilty of any offence for which he deserved to be dismissed the army let him be tried once more, or let him be distinctly told the grounds upon which he is still excluded from the army. Unless some step such as this is taken it is clear that the conduct of the War-office towards Mr. SWAINS has been not only inconsistent, but , singularly harsh, if not grossly unjust MONUMENTS TO LORD ETEDN's DA VONTER A DA, AND rte OBANDsos, VISCOUNT OCINAIL —Two handsome monu ments have just been finished, erected to the memory of the above noble personages, the former being placed in Newstead Abbey, and the latter is the parish church of Ripley, Surrey.

NORWICH MUSICAL FESTIVAL. NORWICH, Sorr. 1. A public rehearsal took place gist evening in St. Andreer's.hall, Mr. Benedict, general conductor. having come down expressly for the purpose. The admission was gratuitous, and about 1,000 weans availed themselves of the permission to en j oy what proved quite a high musics' treat. Annexed is • list of the morceaux rehearsed :1. Choruses from Richard Civur de Lion (Benedict); 2. Part eong, " Sleep, gentle lady" (Sir H. Bishop) ; 3. War wog, " We trust in God" (Weber); 4. Choruses from the " Royal Wedding &meats" (Coarse) ; 5. Past song, " Horne (Berne. diet) ; 6. Chorus of soldiers, " Glory end love to the men of old," from Faust (Coned) ; 7. " March of the Men of Horlech," Welsh national melody (J. Thomas) ; 8. Chorus, "From the calmer," Solomon (Handel) ; 9. Chorus, "Halle. lujAh,"Moone of Olives (Beethoven). With regard to the financial prospects of the Festival, it is perhaps premature to speak of them at present. We may, however, state that the deemed for tickets thus far has pro. needed tolerably well, applic►tions having been received for seating altogether about 2,5004 In 1845 the total concert receipts were 4,4734 ; in 1848, 4,2821. ; in 18M, 4,1941. ; la 1854,46874 ;is 1857, 3,6041. ; and is 1860, 4,4561. The meetings of 1854 and 1857 were attended with indifferent results, but in 1860 there was a handsome surplus. The Earl and Counters Russell, Loni Amberley, and the rest et the family, arrived at Saturday afternoon from the Tromehs, by Lochesinbeed, at the Drummond Arras Hotel, Crieff.

THE FRENCH PRESS. The supension of the France Centrafe for two I months has elicited expressions of warm sym pathy from the liberal journals of Paris. " Certainly," says the Temps, " if some foreigner, knowing nothing of our institutions and affairs, were to arrive in France and learn with what rigour the provisions of the organic decree on thh press are still applied, he could not but believe that France was going through a period of trouble ; that there were symptoms of disorder amongst the DAMN ; that a government newly es tablished was compelled by exceptional circum stances to impose silence upon ardent rivals. But when he learnt that the government had been established for twelve years ; that the molt perfect order prevailed everywhere ; that scarcely three months ago millions of electors made use of the electoral urn without the least disturbance of peace ; that at Paris, Lyons, Marseilles, and Nantes, those great centres where the opposition obtained inch a splendid success, the victory was obtained and bailed with a calm which perhaps would not be found in any other country in the world ; when, in a word, be knew our situation, we could defy the defenders of the organic decree to make him understand why the French press is less free than the English press, the Belgian, the Italian, the German, the Austrian, the Spanish, and what especially causes at this moment a redoubling of the rigour." The Temps also points out that most of the late warnings which have been given to the press have been given on the Polish question, and at moments when the French government seemed most anxious about its relations with St. Peters burg. THE POPE AND THE ITALIAN GOVERN- MENT. The Armonia of Turin announces in the follow ing terms an encyclical letter of Pius IX. to the cardinals, archbishops, and bishops of Italy : Our Holy Father, Pius IL, under date the 10th of August, has addressed an encyclical letter to the Italian cardinals, archbishops, and bishops, in which be deplores the very cruel and sacrilegious war to which the church is everywhere subject, but especially in Italy, through the seta of the subalpine government. The Holy Father regards the triumph of truth and justice as certain ; be rejoices over the constancy and firmness of the episcopacy he re. news his former declarations ; he condemns the clerk* liberal societies; he praises the Italian clergy, who are strongly attached for the most part to the Holy See, and the religieuse who prefer to suffer hunger rather than leave the cloister, sod the Italian people who succour the Pope by means of the St. Peter's woos. He recommends them totally to pray and wait with coofideoce. _ . i "This s a document," concludes the Armenia, "worthy of Pius IX., who in his paternal solici tude points out the evil, suggests the remedy, and promises recover in the name of Him who has rendered curable the nations of the earth."

Western Braila, with a Provinoial Assembly at Wiles. The kingdom of Poland, with a Diet which would be held at Wareaw. Eastern Russia with a provincial assembly at Kazan. Finally, Siberia and the adjacent provinces, with a pro vincial assembly at Irkoutek. As regards the provinces of the Caucasian region and of American Russia, their organisation will be ulteriorly coosidered. The particular institutions for Poland will, it is said, be very extended. Should the Poles decline to send deputies to the Chamber of the Represeotatives of the Em pire, their scruples would be respected, and the special go vernment of Poland would function under the sole direction of the Diet at Warsaw, towards which the lieutenant of the Emperor would fill the constitutional mission of head of the executive power.

The Correspondencia Autografa of to-day says that in the conference at La Granja, General Prim informed the Queen that the circular of the 20th ult. had paralysed the labours of the electors. The Progressistas felt insulted by the motives and conditions imposed upon their meeting. He feared that their abstinence from voting would be the first serious consequence. The ministry should either modify its pretensions or resign. The Pro gressistas would never place themselves in the position of revolutionist*. The Queen replied that as a constitutional sove reign she could not, in the absence of the Cham bers, entertain a different opinion to that of the ministry, whose services had merited the royal confidence. Her Majesty hoped that all would be amicably arranged by the period of her return to Madrid. THE CONGRESS OF SOVEREIGNS. FRANKFORT-ON-THE•MAINE, Sarr. 2.

(FROM OUR ows onassromnrr.) PARIS, TOISDAT &MVO. The following article in the Pays is undoubtedly semi-official, and may be safely taken as explaining the views which M. Drouyn de Lamps wishes it to be believed for the moment are those of the French government with regard to the astounding reports now current of a radical change iu the foreign policy of France. It will be seen that the idea of • Russo-Prussian alliance, notwithstanding rhetori cal precautions, which characterise it as premature, is very seriously entertained. The Pays says : For some days past there has been a talk of an appron mation between France, Russia, and Prussia. People have even gone so far as to announce a new Franco.ltioso- Pruden alliance. Moat of the journals, in their ver sions of these rumours, have been guilty more or lees of exaggeration. A political situation so deliberately created as that which has preoccupied the govern ments and the public for several months past is not to be reversed so easily and so quickly as some people are pleased to say. An alliance such as that spoken of is not to be im provised. At any rate it cannot be without serious and very positive motives. It appears to us desirable to redone things to their real proportions, and to explain the truth of the situation. The first cause of the rumours circulated is manifest. An unlooked-for event occurred in Gummy, which by its intrinsic importance, as well as by the mystery attending it, could not fail to attract the attention of the political world. A congress of sovereigns met at Frankfort. Its deliberations remained secret. Is the work which its vete will sanction intended solely to develop the prosperity of Germany by organising a better mode of action re specting its internal affairs ; or is it of a nature to modify the situation of Germany with regard to other countries and affect her foreign relations? That is the NOHOW, ques tion which has occupied every political mind. Certain powers, on account of their peculiar situation, were more especially anxious about this question than others. Russia is on the borders of Germany. At divers points she has interests in common with those of that country. She could not possibly be indifferent to an act which might very considerably change the constitution of the federal power, and the mode of employing the forces of which it can dispose. Prussia, herself a German power, could not, either, see with equal eye a work destined without her being consulted, and which was destined to make profound changes in the institutions of Germany. And, finally, France, although confident in the moderation and the inten tions of Austria, and contemplating her efforts without regret, supposing them to be confined to the internal reor ganisation of Germany, is too near a neighbour of that country on many points, and has too clear a right and duty to keep herself au courant as to everything that concerns European order, not to share the solicitude of Russia and Prussia in respect to the great act preparing at Frankfort. The same natural preoccupations existed therefore simtd taneously in the councils of the three powers. This analo gous situation oaturally also led them to exchange their apprehensions and their impressions with each other. A sort of understanding has in this way been established be tween them on the special point which wss the object of their intercommunication, and which, moreover, it should not be forgotten, was as yet only based upon eventualities. This is all that has passed up to the present time between France, Russia, and Prussia. There has not been, as will be perceived, any treaty of alliance either signed or pre pared, and no resolutions taken. Will anything further occur later? We cannot tell. That will depend, doubt less, on the character of the act concerning which the sove reigns have been, and still are, deliberating at Frankfort. Nevertheless, we cannot deny that in the political simne -1 Wu in which Europe is at the moment of the Fraekfort Congress, the communications and deliberations between France, Russia, and Prussia have • real importance. Al though caused merely by an eventual question, they have had for effect the modification of the previous stets of the polities] relations of the three Poway. Is it not permissi ble to see in it a new hope for the arrangement of the qua- , lion which divided them as to the preservation of the peso. 1 of Europe I WICATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.) Wzrovestay, Si Y, 8 A.M. EMIGRATION TO BRITISH COLONIES. The following letter contains some important in formation upon the subject of emigration to Canada "Government Emigratiou-odios, Quebec, Aaiun 11. "Sir —I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your hitter of the 28th ult, and, io reply, to state that the families emigrated by your society and by the Man. cheater Aid Committee semented with you have, in .o far as I am able to gather from the reports of the inland agents, been satisfactorily provided for ; at all events, I have received no complaints of ill success from any of them. " The demand throughout the province for farm labouren and female servants still increases, and I bars now applies. goes before me for a large number of agricultural labourers, which I have no means of supplying. By the time this reaches you the season will be too far advanced to render the emigration of those dependent upon lama for that support advisable. I have recently received information that parties in England oppoeed,to emigration to this provisos have taken advantage of some statements made in parhainget (on the authority of a despatch from the Governor-General to the imperial government) that emigrants were not wanted in Canada, and that we had no employment for them. " This is a great mistake. I have seldom known the in. quirt for agricultural labourers more general. The farmers complain that the operatives are of too light a build for the country work ; and this, combined with their want of ex. perigees, makes it difficult sometimes to provide for them, more particularly when they are accompanied by a helpless family. I may mention, as an illustration of the fact, th a t some of those lately arrived could only get hired for 6 doh, a month, whereas if they had been better fitted for far m labour they would r wily have got 10 or 12 dole. " Tt is, I imagine, to this class of persons that any marks contained in the despatch referred to were at all applicable. -" I have the hocoue to be, sir, your obedient servant, "A. C.

It is an old saying, and a very true one, that misfortunes seldom oome singly. For some weeks put oar town hen been suffering from an unusual amount of sickness, in consequeoce of which many persons bare been obliged to withdraw from their daily occupation., and much suffering and distress have prevailed ; and now we have to record another calamity, the firing of the Wel. Beaton Pit Colliery, by which 700 hands have been thrown oat of employment until work can be found for them elsewhere, or the water which has been let into this pit can be pumped out and operates. resumed. It Me= that the pit was first discovered to be on fire a week ego; and the roam having been instantly cornmeal. rated to Mr. Bourne, the Earl of Lonsdele's representative at the Colliery Office, that gentleman forthwith repaired to the spot, and took prompt measures for staying the pro. grass of the digester. This was a work of extreme dig. satiny sod &agar ; bat, through Mr. Bourne's consult personal supervision sod direction, aided by the usisteace of his deputy, Mr. Mulcaster, sod of all the officers sad men employed at the works, it was thought that on Then. day the fire had been subdued. In the afternoon of that day, however, a quantity of gas unfortunately escaped, awl ignitiog some timber, gave a fresh impetus to the combos. lion of the coal, which afterwards so far increased as to render it necessary to drown the pit. On Saturday it was found that all ordinary means were insufficient to pt the fire wider. The whole of the horses down the pit were therefore taken cwt, preparatory to closing the shaft, which we understand was resolved upon, sad we believe a podia' of the lower workings in which the fire is situated will be walled off from the dip workings, and then inundated with water by pumping it in, and also probably by • syphoo from the sea. These are extreme inft. SUM to take, but we trust they will prove effective, sad shortly enable the noble proprietor to again get this fine oral mine into working order. The fire is said to have originated in • fine which leads from the stationary eosin' at the pit bottom. and in which the soot hail accumulated. How long the soot in this flue may have smouldered is not known. but eventually the fire seized upon the coal. sad since Monday last cautioned to spread, despite the efforts of Mr. Hour°e and his staff, aided by the great experience of the eminent oolliery engineer, Mr. Foster, of Newcastle, who was telegraphed for on the matter Resuming so serious a shape. We regret to say that up to the time of our going to peen this disastrous fire continues to spread, but it is hoped from the measures adopted that its ravages will be confined to • limited area. A syphon pipe is now laid down from the pit, past Tom Hurd Rock, to theses at low-water mark, while water is drawn from the Scalegill pond, from near James' pit, and also pumped from the sea near the Bath Houses. As stated above, the whole of the horses, upwards of sixty in number, were taken out of the mine. The closing of this colliery is causing vessels in great numbers to leave this port for Workington and Maryport, eight or ten vessels having cleared out for these ports yesterday. As the Croft pit was closed some few months back, the whole supply has now to come from the William and One teas pits ; we, however, feel sure every effort will he wade to meet the demand, sot oily for local consumption, but for shipment also from these pals—Cumberland Pacque. EXHIBITION OF PICTURES BY SCOTTISH MASTERS. —lt was mentioned some time ago that the Royal Scottish Academy intended to open en Exhibition of Pictures by Scottish artists io connection with the meeting of the Social Science Association in October next. It is gratifying to learn that the prospect of an excellent exhibition is now highly encouraging. Circulars were issued by the Academy to the proprietors of works by de ceased artists, soliciting their support; and already • number of replies have been received, all of the most favottrable kind—indeed there is not as yet • single instance of refusal. As the exhibition is intended to represent the whole Scottish school, from the earliest period in so far as it is possible or desirable to do so), there is every probability that it will be one of very great interest, and the display of works will be such u to revive the reputation of not • few artists famous in their day, but whose names were becoming more and more led sight of by the rising geoeration of amateurs of art. It is not doubted that there will be abundance of material to form • collection that will do no small credit to the Scottish school, and for that reason we bcpe it will receive the hearty support of proprietors of pictures and the public in general.
