For the guidance of those who may be unable to In spect the photographs before ordering, the following extracts front the criticisms of the most Influential journals are n pleaded. I. The place of honour for perfection In all that re letes outdoor photography la Its eddest and highest sense to Francis Bedford.

The student can study from photographs of this kind with almost the same advantages as awn the monuments themselves. 4. It ii impossible to laud too highly the perfection with which the grandest features and the minutest details are alike presented in these pictures Thetas appointing paleness which disfigures many photographs same In this instance, by great precaution or by rare rood fortune, to have been altogether avoided. 6.

Already, V Vith pare Protestant with Romish nations—ltigland and Spain fuels. dance—we may discern a remarkable difference between thew That comes from the Reformation. It is Important, therefore, that this great epoch should be better known . nay more, it must become popular : mid. for that it is fit that it should not only be described m looks. L=reeented by the productions Of art It is this end we have In view in laying before the public a few scenes In the life of the great Reformer. This design has been conceived and executed by an eminent artist whose name and family are equally known In France, England, an.l liolland, and who has already acquired an honour able reputation by his former works, especially by his two ham tanlariki tin.. of "Luther, Melaucthon, Pomeranus, and Cruclger Um the Bible." and nto Conference at Geneva In 1519." Hy estimable friend, M. Lahouchere, desired me to describe with the pen the gamey which he has so ably depicted with his pencli Although I felt my insufficiency for such a task, I did not think it right to be deaf to his repeated entreatiea. I have merely added some rough outlines to the finished work of H. labouchere, for I know that, In publications of this kind, the whole attention is directed to the plates, and that the letter press holds • secondary rank. Although It may be my fete not to be read, I have, nevertheless, had pleasure in carefully tracing these historic scenes of the Reformation of Luther. I thought I could not do better than take as my guide an espression of Luther's "An animated narrative is like a picture, and Is fixed ter more deeply in the mind than an abstract doctrine." tollistorzeought that e to be wrl verythiog ite sto tn ull h i s e t° t r ita c td man acCi e a r rill ac- n, v i m nature. History must live again in the eyes of those who stady it. and they must be eye-witnesses of the things they are told. This Is more especially neemsery when we have to deal with • few detached scenes, and not a 'Gatineau narrative. for a scene to have indispensable ttatiitalnees and life, it Is allow able, and even necessary, to add here a shadow, there • light, in harmony with the design and the general arrangement—to give the touches required to complete the resemblance. The severe muse of history excludes all that has not really taken place; it Is not strictly the time with pictures of the past. Here we must take truth rather than reality for our guide. There are museums where statues are exhibited Just es they have been found, that is to say, mutilated, without arms, perhaps even without heads. There are other museums where the statues are restored to what they most originally have been. where the missing limbs are am•rd according to the analogy of those that are left. This is what the historic picture does. And yet, while referring the reader. fond of history strictly written, to my work on the Reformation of the Sixteenth Cen tury, 1 may add that the scenes here laid before him are true historic scenes. I have only now to express a desire that this publication, even while inters iting Its readers, may contribute, In some small degree, to make true Protestantism better known. Some one of these pictures may reveal the inner forces which have in modern times restored the living religion of the apostolic ages : while another may manifest the firmness with which Ito purity ought to be maintained. These two things—truth and life—are neces sary. so that amid the divers forms. more or less defective, of religions society, evangelical Christianity may accomplish the teak which God has assigned It, and be the true, powerful, and military religion. This, to my mind, Is the prime Interest of human kind. Emu Viyes. Geneva.

The fifth session:of the sixth parliament of Queen Victoria was opened to-day by Royal C03111116g012. The absence of her Majesty was a subject of univereal regret. The weather was eminently favourable for the display and out-door enjoyment which characterise a royal opening of parliament. As it was, the whole interest of the day (motored in the speech itself. The spectators in the House of Lords were limited in number, the persons of the commiaaioners not having the charm which opaline], the presence of so many fashionable', whenever the sovereign is seen on the throne. The general expecta tion, however, th►t the Prince of Wales will take his mat in the upper chamber this afternoon will bring together a more than usual camerae of spectators. The Speech, which wee reed by the Lord Chewsllor, mu me follows : MT Loans AND Gl Her Majesty commands us to inform you that since you were last assembled she has declared her consent to a marriage between his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and her Royal Highness the Princess Alexandra, daughter of Prince Christian of Denmark ; and her Majesty has concluded there upon a treaty with the King of Denmark, which will be laid before you. The constant proofs which her Majesty has re ceived of your attachment to her person and family persuade her that you will participate in her senti mute on an event so interesting to her Majesty, and which, with the blessing of God, will, she trusts, prove so conducive to the happiness of her family and to the welfare of her people. Her Majesty doubts not that you will enable her to make provision for such an establishment as you may think suitable to the rank and dignity of the heir apparent to the crown of these realms. A revolution having taken place in Greece, by which the throne of that kingdom has become vacant, the Greek nation have expressed the strongest desire that her Majesty's son Prince Alfred should accept the Greek crown. This un solicited and spontaneous manifestation of good will towards her Majesty and her family, and of a due appreciation of the benefits conferred by the principles and practice of the British constitution, could not fail to be highly gratifying, and has been deeply felt by her Majesty. But the diplomatic engagements of her Majesty's crown, together with other weighty considerations, have prevented her Majesty from yielding to this general wish of the Greek nation. Her Majesty trusts however, that the same prin ciples of choice which led the Greek nation to direct their thoughts, in the first instance, towards his Royal Highness Prince Alfred, may guide them to the selection of a Sovereign under whose sway the Kingdom of Greece may enjoy the blessings of internal prosperity and of peaceful relations with other States ; and if in such a state of things the republic of the Seven Islands should declare a deliberate wish to be united to the kingdom of Greece, her Majesty would be prepared to take such steps as may be necessary for a revision of the treaty of November, 1815, by which that republic was re constituted and was placed under the protection of the British crown. ' Her Majesty's relations with foreign powers continue to be friendly and satisfactory. Her Majesty has abstained from taking any step with a view to induce • cessation of the conflict between the contending parties in the North American States ; because it has not yet seemed to her Majesty that any such overtures could be attended with a probability of success. Her Majesty has viewed with the deepest concern the desolating warfare which still rages in those regions ; and she has witnessed with heartfelt grief the severe distress and suffering which that war has inflicted upon a large class of her Majesty's subjects, but which have been borne by them with noble fortitude and with exemplary resignation. It is some consolation to her Majesty to be led to hope that this suffering and this dis tress are rather diminishing than increasing ; and that some revival of employment is beginning to take place in the manufacturing districts. It has been most gratifying to her Majesty to witness the abundant generosity with which all classes of her subjects in all parts of her empire have contributed to re lieve the wants of their suffering fellow countrymen ; and the liberality with which her Majesty's colonial subjects have on this occasion given their aid has proved that, although their dwelling-places are far away, their hearts are still warm with unabated affection for the land of their father,. The relief committees have superintended with constant and laborious attention the distribution of the funds entrusted to their charge. Her Majesty commands us to inform you that she has concluded with the King of the Belgians • treaty of commeroe and navigation, and a conven tion respecting joint-stook companies. That treaty and that oouvention will be laid before you. Her Majesty has likewise given directions that there shall be laid before you papers relating to the affairs of Italy, of Greece, and of Denmark, and that papers shall also be laid before you relating to . . which have lately taken place in OP THE Hones OF CONIKONS, Her Majesty has directed that the estimates for the ensuing year shall be laid before you. They have been prepared with a due regard to economy, and will provide for such reductions of expenditure as have appeared to be consistent with the proper efficiency of the public service. MY LORDS AND GIINTLINZN, We are commanded by her Majesty to inform you that, notwithstanding thu continuance of the civil war in North America, the general commerce of the country during the past year has not senribly diminished. The Treaty of Commerc3 which her Majesty concluded with the Emperor of the French has already been productive of results highly &Ivan_ tageous to both the nations to which it applies ; and the general state of the revenue, notwithstand ing many unfavourable circumstances, has not been unsatisfactory. Her Majesty trusts that these results may be taken as proofs that the productive resources of the country are unimpaired. It has been gratifying to her Majesty to observe the spirit of order which happily prevails through out berdominions, and which is so essential an ment in the well-being and prosperity of nations. V►rious measures of public usefulness and im provement will be submitted for your oonsidera tion ; and her Majesty fervently prays that in all your deliberations the blessing of Almighty God may guide your counsels to the psuipat4of the welfare and happt wo her-people. - l:.ser van' ,• • .• HIGH WATILIt AT LONDON BRIDOL Tine DAY L7ioriiiiii:l47 " Uga. roatozzow—Mondag. $L Sika......Usarsons. 66m. LONDON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 5. THE Session that opens to-day is regarded by the nation at large with unusual apathy and indiffe rence. The present Government is exposed to the just reproach of having thrown away the most valuable opportunities of consolidating the party which supports it in power. The utter want of a really advancing domestic policy has, in fact, become • source of chronic weakness to the Government, which is only in part counterbalanced by its popular and consistent course of action in foreign affairs. The foreign policy of the Government is in the main not only justly entitled to high praise, hut thoroughly ap preciated both by the country and by the Liberal members of the House. The Cabinet has well maintained the high character of England abroad, and carried consistently out, under very critical and trying circumstances, • policy of even-handed justice worthy of a great and free people. Both in Italy and in America the Government has, against no small amount of pressure, maintained the great principle of non-intervention ; and in both cases the result abundantly justifies the wisdom of this course. Onr position is probably higher and our influence greater in Europe at this moment than at any period during the last forty years. And if the great conflict in America is settled without any attempt at inter vention on our part, our reputation will be far higher and our influence infinitely greater over that vast continent than it has ever yet been. In these great and vital questions of foreign policy. the Government completely represents the nation. If it had the wisdom and courage to adopt in home affairs • line of policy equally popular, enlightened, and consistent, its tenure of office would be far more secure and its prospects far more assured than even its most sanguine friends can now con sider them to be. With regard to the measures of real interest that may be looked for in the coming Session, almost the only ono that can be anticipated with any confidence is a reduction of the existing bur den of taxation. A measure of this kind, always popular, will, it need scarcely be said, be peculiarly welcome at the present moment, when large branches of our native in dustry are in so depressed a condition. But it remains to be seen whether the Government will be entitled to any special credit for the reduc tions that may be effected. It would be absolutely necessary for any government in power at the present moment to reduce the present burden of taxation. Whether it could on this ground prefer a just claim to popular support would wholly depend on the way in which this reduction was effected, and the extent to which it was carried. The revenue is this year in excess of the expenditure, and therefore the exist ing taxation might be slightly reduced without any serious effort at retrenchment being made at all. Such a course, so far from satisfying the coun try, would outrage its just expectation, and bitterly disappoint its reasonable hopes. In order to meet the requirements of the country the present high level of expenditure must be seri °oily reduced, and a policy of sincere and enlightened retrenchment heartily adopted. If the financial measures of the Government be based on the practical recognition of this neces sity, its position with the country will be greatly strengthened. But if not ; if any attempt is made to keep up the present extravagant expendi ture, it will be exposed to dangers and assaults on every side. Having for the present abandoned reform, its only chance of retaining a strong hold on the support of the country will be found in a course of resolute administrative economy. THE MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCE OF WALES. The marriage of the Prince of Wales with Princess Alexandra of Denmark will take place upon Tuesday, March 10. By her Majesty's command the ceremony will be performed in St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, in which chapel the Prince of Wales was christened, and by which arrangement the Queen will be enabled to be pre sent in private, which could not, under existing circumstances, have been the case at the Chapel Royal in L ondon. Upon the 7th March the Princess Alexandra will arrive in England, and upon her arrival at the Bricklayers' Arms station will drive, accompanied by the Prince of Wales, and the members of her family who come to Eng land with her, and attended by her suite, through the City and west end of London to the Paddington terminus, on her way to Windsor. The arrange ments will be much the same as on the occasion when the Princess Royal left England after her The ueen has commanded that a Levee shall be held at St. James's Palace on Wednesday, the 25th February, by the Prince of Wales on behalf of her Majesty. All presentations will be considered as being made to her Majesty. The usual regulations will be observed. The Queen has also commanded that a Drawing-room shall be held on Saturday, February 28th, at St. James's Palace, by the Crown Princess of Prussia, Princess Royal of Great Britain and Ireland, on behalf of her Majesty. All presentations will be considered as being made to her Majesty. The usual regulations will be ob served. We are authorised to state that the Queen, having graciously taken into consideration the interests of trade, does not require any ladies to appear in mourning at the Drawing-mom announced on the 28th inst., excepting the ladies of the Corps Diplomstique, the wives of the Cabinet Ministers, sod the ladies of her Majesty's household. • a, 4'4 A. 9ii.11 • . a." -T 1 44 :r • r res 4. .4sm Japan. die Court.

On Tuesday lest, however, the symptoms became more alarming, and in the conies of the afternoon telegrams were despatched to his relatives in London, and also to Dr. B. Jones, the consulting surgeon.
