MUSIC. -4p- HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. The Huguenots was produced last night with greet splendour and evens' ; though the ideal d the perform ance was materially injured by its excessive length : the opera having been spun out to the unusual hour of half put twelve. The consequence was, that the audience, though highly interested and excited during the greater part of the performance, were untried before it ended ; and when the curtain fell, three•fourthe of the own' pante of the boxes and stalls bad taken their departure. This opera, magnificent and beautiful as it is, has the fault common to almost all the " lyrical tragedies " of the French stein. It is too loos is itself, and care ought to be taken to avoid needless delays and impatinest addi tions. Meyerbeer, in compliance with the Parisian taste, hes interlarded his scenes with an ample allowance of spec tacle and dancing, and certainly never contemplated the insertion of more. Bat last night the action wee made to stand still, in order that Mlle. Ferraris, in defiance of all dramatic propriety, might introduce a long " pas," which she vat present in the habit of dancing every night. To make up for this and other wadies prolong•- iron, the last act wee cut down to a skeleton, and galloped through as it the performers were running a race ag►inst time—which, indeed, they found themselves compelled to do; and the touching catastrophe was lost by being rendered unintelligible. We, too, are compelled to cut short our remarks on the performance, which was in some respects one of the finest we have ever seen. Titian is now unrivalled in the part of Valentine, sad the lame may be said of Ginglines Raoul. The terrible and most pathetic scene of passion, agony, and despair, when Bernd thieve himself among his enemies, leaving Valentine feinting on the ground, wan given with a power which probably has never bent summated. The character of Mania was sustained by Signor Fricas, who made his fint appearance in England. His name has been thus absurdly Italianised ; for he is Herr Fricke, of the Royal Opera, Berlin, where he holds • distinguished position. He livery tall, with a robust per son, sad a voice of the deepest bass. He completely realised the idea of the stalwart Puritan trooper, and, by his singing as well u acting, gave great effect to the cha racter. Marguerite of Navarre was exceedingly well sup. ported by Mille. Louise Michel, who is a blonde beauty of the Scandinavian type, and sang the very florid music of the part with remarkable finish and brilliancy. Mdlle. Trebelli was delightful as Urban. She was the handsomest page imaginable, and sang the music as well as Alboni—to sing it better is impossible. Smith/ gave great importance to the young Count de Nevers, to whose chivalrous character he gave much interest; and Gassier was excellent as the stern and obdurate Saint Brie. The concerted pieces and choruses were admirably snug, and the orchestra did its duty in a manner highly zreditable to its members and the able conduotor, Signor Arditi. 1 TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE'. REPULSE OF THE FRENCH AP PUEBLA. SOUTHAMPTON TEIIIIBDAY Niour. Advioes brought by the Tasmanian state that the French have sustained two serious repulses before Puebla. They have only taken two insignificant forts, and have lost 3,000 men in killed and wounded. Nearly all the wounded have died, owing to climate. The rainy season was setting in, and the French themselves do not expect to reach Mexico before the autumn. General Comonfort is in the rear of the French with, it is said, 8,000 cavalry, and nothing can be sent to the French army from Vera Cruz except under a strong escort. The French themselves are much disheartened. There are shout 400 of their troops in Vera Cruz.

TO TRH lorroa OF TH3 E1F1123. SIN—At the time when there is so much alarm about small-poz, and distrust of the protective power of vaccination, it may be interesting to state the following instance of its efficacy. During the Indian mutiny, in the hot season of ISSB, I was on the Ganges with my regiment, packed together on a "flat "as dose as sardines la a tin. A case of small-pox appeared amongst us, and seclusion was out of the question, or re-vaccination either, so we hod to put our trust in Providence and Dr. Januar. Only one man became infected : be died, poor fellow, in a horrid state, while the original culprit escaped with a slight attack. The second cue was treated in an old barrack room full of other sick, and several times I bad belated cases (sent in by passing flying detachments), for whom, in those days, there was no seclusion available. Had it not been for the immortal Jenner's discovery, what, under such circurostaoces, would have been the state and fate of her Majesty's 37th Foot? Thanks to his glorious legacy, not a man among us took the disease, save the one unlucky sufferer, and I think inch en erperimentum truce ought both to inspire • rational confidence among these who have been really vaccinated, sod to ensure such regard for dinner's memory as should have eared his statue from expulsion, as unworthy to stand in the A dignified by the effigy of that great monarch Georg7rr g . 2 I am, he., J.

Mr. Bernal Osborne, M.P. for Liakeard, ad:l ammed a meeting of his courtituenta in the Town-hall on Wednesday. The Merost took the chair. Mr. B. Ormonne, M.P., upon stepping forward was re relived with applause. After some preliminary and charm- . boleti: remarks in referee°, to the businme of parliament during the present sessios, he said there was one question that arose in the lad unite of parliament in which he took considerable interest—the educational question. He thought the government deserved very grist credit for their attempt to grapple with and to reform that • system. After • humorous remark that this and the Thames Embankment Bill were the only matron which really crested say interest in the session of 1862, Mr. Osborne alluded. to the Night Poaching Bill, with which be said he disagreed. Ho had been waited on that day by a &po tshot' with regard to the bill which was now before parliament, Br. fitenee's Sunday Closing Bill. He had told that deputation his outdid opinion. He war &shoos of doing every justice to the oonecientious and good men who! thought that by closing public-home& on Sundays they: could make men moral and good. He said that he desired to do justice to them. That measure might be . good for the rural districts. He did not dispute that. But as to the large towns, it would be utterly impossible to earry out such • mesa.,.. (Hear.) It wee out of the question to attempt to legislate for me. class, and while they would debar the artisan and mechanic teem obtaining his ale or beer, the it* Would to able tcs wooly their wants. He.* " Dbiege &Oar et Man Mori mu algae, drew • line for the rich man m well." (thar.) l It wee a diScult question, and they mast be modal that while endeavouring to promote publio morality they did sot strike • fetal blow at public liberty. Morality was never promoted by act of parliament. Acts of parliament might make hypocrites. but they did not reach the heart. As he told the deputation, it would take a good deal et consideration before he voted for soh a bill. (Hasr,f . hese) They had doubtless noticed that than had public meetings held with respect to the priest condition of Poland. He thought that the public Should be careful that they did not do their best to stimulate the exertions of these gallant men, who had no hope, and thee after stimulating their exertions do nothing to aid their cause. (Hear, hear.) What was the use of ceiling meetings to sympathise with and encourage these people, if they did not intend to give them material help, or feel prepared to go to war for them! Were the people of this country pre pared to go to war for Poland ' Were they prepared to pay •10 per Dent. nom& tax to &so ? He brined they were not. If thee they led them to expert assistanes and did not give it, it was only tip service.He would give then' • subecription, but he would not attend any of these public meetings. How much wiser had been their conduct with regard to America. In this matter her Majesty's govern ment had acted most admirably. (Beat, bear.) They adopted a firm line of policy with regard to the Trent affair, but they did not bu ll y. Her Majesty's government had acted with admirable prudence. He gave Lord Palmonton every credit for it. He bad steered dear of both parties up to this moment, notwithstanding many difficult circum stances. They had not bourne involved in that dreadful contest. After peering a high eulogium upon the courage and fortitude which the Lancashire operatives had dis played In their endurance under the overwhelming trials they bad nudergone, he said be thought parliament would best show its sense of their conduct by extending the suffrage to those who had oroved themselves to be so worthy of it. He expressed his regret that oar goyim spent had not adopted the same policy with regard to other foreign Oaten and especially the course which had been pur sed with mod to Braid. Our dispute with that country had now been submitted to the arbitration of the King of the Belgians, one of the most statesmanlike men in Europe. Be thought that this country suffered when our policy with first class and these small powers was compared. In an allnaion to the Amalgamation of the City Police Bill, he thought thegrest thing was to preserve municiped rights. He did not think any great case had been made out wind the Clity polies, but whether he considered sou not, he did not think that there was any chance of alteration. There was a question which he formerly had taken some interest in, end to which he did not know whether he might now advert, but it was dose at hand, and it was the fortifications of this country. (Hear. bear.) He thought they bad wasted, and that they were still going to waste, • great deal more money on the land able fortifications. He would say lot them have as many sea fortifications as they wished, but be would never give in to the theory that they would be required to fortify on the land side. He found that in the lad twelve years there had been 293.000,0004 spent in the oast of military and meal defences. Now they were pro pene( to speed nine =Mem in the cod of those greet works getag en at Portsmouth Ned Plymouth. At Ports mouth them had been actually sweaty-five miles of work on the land side, bat that nine millions would not do • tithed what was wanted. It would take at lout twenty-five minims to furnish and arm those works properly. He moved that the works at Spithead be ouipended. It was ended, sad they were impended; but he was told that they were going to renew them again. He wished to see this country kept properly armed in cue of any outbreak os the continent. (Hear.) He believed the intend defence of Great Britain was her navy. (Cheers.) He was me• pared, if nemineary, to vote large sums of mosey for the navy, but be was not prepared to throw away millions el money upon works of masonry. Then there was the ques tion respecting their guns. (Hear, hear.) Government had of late beam making the most important and wetly changes in gunnery. He thought that Sir William Arm strong had made a good bargain. But be must say he could ant in this matter agree with what the War-office authorities did. Sir William Armstrong, for giving up his bargain for ordnance, was to receive 80,0004 or 90,0001. This country had gems to the expense of spending between 3,000,000 i. and 4,000,0004 on the Arm shoos guns. At this moment, and he spoke advisedly, the Armstrong gins were used on board oar vessels of war for what were called chase guns. Captains did not me them re broadside guns. Accordingly, when they looked at the fleet which Captain Sherard Osborn was fitting out for the Em perm of China, they found that he bad come back to the old 6th-ponder broadside gun. Some morning John Bull would awake and ask bow it was that so much moue y had been spent in this way. (Hear.) The fact was they were too much in the habit of taking up things in an enormous hurry, giving an enormous price, and then finding out their mistake. to alluding to the church rate question, Mr. Osborne drew attention to the fact that Si, John Trelawny bad given up the conduct of the bill. He wished to see the question settled with • doe regard to the interests of the church, and he thought that government might bring in a wise end matured measure to settle it. After referring to some other matters, the hon. member went on to say that there was one man, who, if properly assisted, would reduce the expenditure, and to whom the country ought to be grateful for what he had dons. He meant the Chancellor of the Exchequer. (Applause.) In his last budget he reduced the income tax. He (the &peeler) was we of those who thought that by judicious management they might do without that tax. But they would never do without it if they were No mid about arming their country right and left. The great liberal party was performing what was called a Dutch concert. Each man was playing on his own parti cular instrument Mr. Berkeley piped on the ballot, and Mr. Bright on peace. As every man was playing discord antly at the same time, there was no general harmony, and that was the state of the great liberal party. So it would continue while the country was so apathetic and indifferent ea at ;resent. He could not see why there should not arise some new creation and combination of parties. He did not think they should content themselves with the discussion of foreign politics. They should rather torn their atten tion to home politics and the reduction of home expeodi tura For they might depend upon it that the great thing to be accomplished by the ministry—tory, whig, or liberal—was the reduction of our present enormous ex modicum. (Cheers.) The taxation of this oonntry i. wea great...had been and still was increasing, and ought to di minished. (Cheers.) But the expenditure would sever be lightened so long as they were content to allow foreign politics to frighten them. (Hear, hear.) He did not ad vocate any improper retrenchment in their expenditure. He advocated • proper outlay of the sums of money which were voted for the national security. He advised them not to be led away by false ideas of invasion into expending useless sours of money. In go doing they were not only burdening themselves, but they were also burdening pos terity. In conclusion, Mr. Osborne said that if they would forgive their truant member, he would always be proud to serve them. He rat dews amidst &Wanes. The thanks of the meeting wore voted to Mr. Osborne for his addrees. _ REPRESENTATION OF THE CITY OP LONDON.— Last evening a crowded meeting of the electors of the wards of Farringdon Within and Without was held at the Faringdon Hall, Holborn-bridge, to hear from Mr. Goodies, a candidate for the representa tion, a statement of his political opinions.

(Hear, bear.) TEI PROPONID NEW STINITT TO THI NANINON•1100111. Mr. Lawi.zr, the chairmen to the special parliamentary committee appointed to consider the subject of bills in par liament affecting the rights, privileges, ad revenues of this City of London, brought up a report from that commiMee, in which they stated sou effect that the goverament palliated in carrying out the decision arrived at by the select cow mitten of the Homes of Commons, that the now street from Blacidrims-bridge to the Mansion.boose should be con strooted by the Metropolitan Board of Works, but they re commended that the question should still be agitated, said that the committee should continue their martiorm to me cum the adoption of the pritemitian espied amide fis Ha geveroment en behalf of the corporatist. This propos/hot wan that out of the fourpeosy and ainspenny coal and whir dues, which the corporation are authorial by an act of par liament to nista for a certain period, they should pay 350,0001. towards the comtrection of the sew street, and receive 300,000/. from she goversaset in addition, and that the wort should thus be taken mit of the hand' of the Metropolitan Board of Works and be performed by the corporation themselves. Upon the suggestion of Deputy Harrison, the correspondence that had taken place between the solicitor to the corporation, acting on their behalf, and the Chief Commissioner et the Beard of Works, in reference to the subject, was read, and it appeared that the principal ground time which the go vernment felt themselves compelled to entrust the pee posed improvements to the Beard of Works was that the corporation had not shown that it was in a position to mite the futile that were necessary to perform the work, and the proposal made on behalf of the corpo ration in reference to this subject was charasterized as ' shadowy and de lusive in appearance ;'• sad that unless the government carried out the work through the inetramentality of the Metropolitan Board of Works, the important improvements referred to would be postponed for an indefinite period. The honourable member, in moving that the report be agreed to, said that he should defer making any okrna dons npou the subject until the close of the debate. Deputy FST opposed the motion, and went at aseiderable length into the whole subject, mpressing his *WIC that it was perfectly nests for the corporation to p ea any further with their opposition to the masses of the RR meets they really were unable to raise the necessary and he said that unless the new street was coostruc the Board of Works it would not be made for a hawked years to come. He complained of the course that bad been taken by the special parlismentery committee in refmanes to the question, and said it appeared to him that they bed by that course materially damaged the credit of the ration, and that this was the fast time that any that was made by it to the governmenthed been characterised as shadowy and delusive. (Hear, hear.) He concluded by proposing an amondriteet to the effect that, as the special committee had failed in their endeavour, to induce the go vernment to consent to the proposition they had made, all further opposition to the measures now before parliament should cease. Upon a division the amendment was negatived, and the original motion was carried by a majority of seven. TIC PHOTOS= VIADUCT ACROSS LUDOATI-HILL. Mr. Deputy Far brought up a report from the Ls provemeots Committee upon the Warmth, to prosecute the petitiou in Parliament against the Ludgate Station and Junction Railway Company's Bill, sod also reoommendin that a petition be presented against the Laudon, Chathant, and Dover Railway Company. Mr. FIT said the company had withdrawn the Loud= Station Ball, and they had sow mother bill before the home, in which they asked for additional borrowing poems, and the committee recommended that they should present • petition against that bill, that they might have a loess thee& there, and so be enabled to watch the improveuseuts. He had that day seen a plan of Hr. Greenhill's fare com pouod bridge across the Thames, which he thought was very feasible, and his moved that the report should be agreed to, mid that the Improvements Committee and Bridge-bones Estates Committee be authorised to take into cooaideration a plan suggested by Yr. Greenhill, C.E., for a railway and road communication between the north and south side of the river Thames, and which has for its object to obviate the iteceseity for the pro posed viaduct acme Ludgate-hill. and contemplates raising the bottom of Ludgate-hill and also Holborn valley.

Alter some routine bumper had been disposed of the court sdjouroed. GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. Yesterday a special general meeting of this com pany took place at the Paddington station to consider ve nous bills now pending in parliament ; Mr. Sreocen Wat.- rots, M.P., in the chair. The CRsraye.o explained that of the eleven bills which the shareholders had been called together to take into their consideration, only four ware ready to be submitted to them Those four were :—An set for increasing the capital of, sad conferring further powers on, the West London Extension Railway Company ; amending their ads • providing for the dissolution of the West Loudon Railway &spiny, and fee other purposes.

An act to authorise the Hammersmith and City Railway Company to make another junction with the Great Western Railway ; and for other purposes. The first bill wu not one promoted by the Great Western Company, but by the West London Extension Company, and powers were taken under it to raise a certain amount of capital for the execution of various works on the latter railway. The arrangement was that the sum required should 'De supplied io this manner. The London and North Western should subscribe one-third, the Great Western one-third, sod the London and Brighton and the South Western the other third. The capital sanctioned sod raised by the Extension Company was ;MI ,000/.. but the liabilities of the undertaking., added to the expenses entailed by the necessary completion of the lice, required a farther outlay of from 80,00 W. to 100,0001. ; and it was intended, if thought advisable, to raise a further sum of 150,000 i. in the proportions mentioned. It was poesible, however, that the whole of the amount would not be required. Hs then moved a resolutioa to the effect that the bill be approved. The Roo. Mr. PONSO24bY seconded the motion. Mr. ADAua urged that neither of the bills should be submitted for oonsideratvon at the present moment, and he moved that the meeting be adjourned sine die. Mr. ALIAANDISII seconded the amendment, which was discussed at some length, and was ultimately lost by a large majority. Thr motion for the approval of the bill was then put and signed to. The three other bills were then severally brought forward and approved, the chairman explaining that neither of them required the Great Weeterr. Company to subscribe any capital. The meeting was then adjourned to the 12th June for the consideration of the remaining bills, together with another bill not included in the present list, but mentioned in the oompany's notice of the 10th May. The meatier separated with a vote of thanks to the chair* man sad director. CONSUMPTION HOSPITAL, BROMPTON.
