i s: Material recommendations. It prepares and votes its own estimates. It keeps the money it vow , in its own hands, and pays away its own apprupriations. It is in point of fact a countervailing power in the colony to tho Governor —and (CV lies the real source of all quarrel and si,pute when the Governor is a weak or an inferior roof) . Ile dislikes an Assembly of which he is jealous, and it returns his dislike with interest. such a b..sly might, of course, be improved ; but the time fir improvement is not in the midst of a quarrel and a dispute like this. At present alterations would have to be made ri et arm is, and would only esa pirste and exacerbate colonial controversies. Th e puke of Nnwe.tsm: must restore civil govern ment to Jamaica, and revive cordiality between the House of As:initily and the QUEEN'S representative then•, before he meddles with Old Non's constitution f o r that, the greatest of his conquests from the proud Spaniards of the seventeenth century. some laws now the Camp at Chobham has I hen 4 fact, raid on the day of its establishment a very wet uncomfortable fact it was for the ten thou sand who had to pitch their out-of-door homes amidst a heavy ceaseless rain. But the bad weather wa , not an unmitigated evil, since it has brought dose upon the troops an amount of sympathetic eulo:,y which would certainly never have been showered on them had they been broiling in a Bur ruse sun or a ('ape bush, and at the same time has enabltd the public to judge what our soldiers can do nadir difficulties. Never did men look cleaner or better than they did on reaching Chobham Heath, although some of them, the artillery for instance, had marched four-and-twenty miles before they got there ; and if the several columns were, on their arrival, not quite close to one another, the irregularity arose from the perfect impossibility of keeping men well up together, when every now and then some omnibus driver or waggoner would insist on driving where and when he pleased—the road being " as much his own as anybody else's." Every portion of tent equi page having been sent to the ground previously, the mere setting up of the canvas habitations cannot be taken as any exact criterion of what soldiers would do on a line of march : and, of course, those who got on the field first were first housed. But it certainly was astonishing how much had been done by the evening of the first day, in making ingenious cooking hearths, erecting gipsy huts for the women, and in providing a thou sand and one small but needful matters which do not come across the mind until their actual want is felt. The situation of the camp is excellent as to dryness and salubrity, with the exception of the cavalry stables, which are erected on decidedly too low ground an evil sensibly felt after the rain of Mon day and Tuesday last. The horses are also too close together; for being highly bred, and well up to their work, the fatigues of a march by no means weakened their biting and kicking propensities, and unless some change is made, we may before long expect to hear of more casualties arising from the same cause as cost the lives of two hones on the first night. Fir is in plenty in the neighbourhood, and as the camp partakes of the character of a permanent one, the erection of a stable or two more would prove not only more safe and comfortable, bat economical also, in the long run. But these are drawbacks which cannot always be taken into consideration beforehand, and it is right to say, that the engineers seem to have done their best in Ong the necessary preparations, and that on the whole they have been eminently successful. Thu, are two subjects, however, which power fully provoke criticism ; and these are, the dress of the infantry and of the artillery. If the first of these looks awkward and absurd in the barrack square, it looks infinitely more so in the field. The ugly and worse than useless shako —the short-waisted tight tail coat—the cross belts— that extraordinary article, the Highlander's bonnet box, when he is in heavy marching order—all these require instant revision. " Stand at ease !" muttered one man (repeating only a very old complaint) when the order was given, "how' can I stand at ease in such a dress as this ?" We are not quarrelling with colour, but material. The line trousers are certainly of a prominent colour, but their texture is good, and more healthy than the white ones of the Guards, who areseemingly allowed to wear " ducks" merely to make au unhealthy distinction. For if a man has but two pair of white trousers, and has always to have a clean pair on, it stands to reason he must put them on tolerably damp. It would be curious in another month or two to obtain a statisti cal table of the amount of disease amongst the Guards, the Infantry of the Line, and the Artillery, their trousers being respectively of white duck and blue woollen. Surely it is much better to be like the Highlanders, with "no breaks at a'," than with damp ones. Again, the Goatee has the inconvenience of being made tight, not covering the stomach, and being made of inferior cloth—three mischievous re sults of the colonel-tailoring system ; for if these evils were remedied, the perquisites of the tailor-colonels would be clipped down. It is said that Lord HAI DIEGE is favourable to a change in this system, and the Duke of CAMBRIDGE has for a long time endea voured to bring about a reform which affects not only the comfort, but the health of the troops ; yet it is hard to overcome the opposition of a hundred clothing colonels, who have each some very sound reason to give why their emoluments should not be cut shorter. As to the shakos and croes-belts, so much has been said about them, and their imperfections stand out so prominently, that we only wonder how the felt and lea ther contractors have managed to hold their ground. The official interest of these gentlemen must be immense, and their consciences must be per fectly impenetrable, or they must long since have suffered from the fearful amount of malediction which has been heaped upon them by every man in the service, from the colonel to the drummer boy, in all the five parts of the world. The field batteries of the Artillery suffer from the inefficiency of the equipment they have taken into the field. Of the 18 gene belonging to this corps but 6 are 9-pounders. Only 8 are properly horsed. Is this the result of all the talk and fuss made some mouths ago about our Artillery? What has be come of the horses voted by Parliament and paid for by the people for that branch of the service ?—a vote obtained by the Government of the day, by their explicitly telling the House that our Artillery was so under-horsed, they could only parade with six pounder guns and four horses, instead of their proper weapon, the nine-pounder with six horses. The news from Woolwich afterwards reported the perfec tion to which the authorities had brought a black bat tery, and a grey battery, and a bay battery. Has all this ended merely in enabling the Ordnance to amuse itself matching horses of divers colours ? Where is the money gone that was voted for horses? Where are the horses? We cannot believe that the KABTEMOESERAL has sanctioned this sending to Chobbam camp two six-pounder batteries under honed. Has it been done as an experiment on the efficiency of the corps or the pockets of the public ? The nation expected that the troops encamped would march to Chobham as if they were marching to a pampaign. Does Lord HARDINGE or does Lord RAGLAN intend, then, to make the six-poander gun that of all the foot artillery ? We cannot believe it. Either let each gunner get accustomed to heavy guns, and to the laborious duties of the foot artilleryman, or make a good light cavalry man of him, and place him in the horse artillery. But such a bastard organisation as the six-pounder field bat tery, for service* in a country like England, only ac customs the men to a weapon with which they would not be permitted to go into active service. It may be said that troops merely go into camp to learn to manoeuvre in bodies. Such, no doubt, is a chief rea son ; and a very good one too. But it is likewise as important for the gunner to become part of his gun, and get used to its weight and management, as it is for an infantry soldier to learn to carry his musket. This is a subject which the British public must not lose sight of. If the guns were too small and underhorsed six months ago on Woolwich Common, we do not understand how they aro not so now on Chobham. No doubt dragging a 9-pounder gun on a boggy heath is no joke; but soldiers don't go into camp to juke, but to become thoroughly efficient ; and we have no doubt that every officer and soldier would prefer the hard work with the feeling that he could well handle his 9-pounder, to the uncomplimentary notion that he is neither recognised as fully fit for horse artillery or field battery—but a mere Chobham mixture. THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER'S " AMENDED " RESOLUTIONS. The Chancellor of the Exchequer's amended reso lutions about stamps upon newspapers are as follows : That from and after the. sth day of July, 1853, in lieu of the stamp duties now payable on newspapers, the following stamp duties shall be payable thereon (that is to say) : For every sheet or piece of paper whereon any newspaper shall be printed, containing on one side thereof a superficies not exceeding 1,530 inches, a duty of £o 0 1 For one supplement to such newspeper, and printed as such, containing on one side a super. &les not exceeding 7G5 inches Provided always', that it shall be lawful to print any such newspaper and supplement in sizes dif ferent from those hereinbefore apportioned, or in • single sheet, provided that such two sheets or such single sheet shall not contain in the aggre gate a greater superficies than 2,295 inches For any further additional supplement, and printed as such, containing • superfine, not ex ceeding 1,148 inches, a duty of Provided also, that any two such additional sup plements, which shall contain in the aggregate a superthin not exceeding 2,295 ine►es, shall, not withstanding that one of them may exceed a in perficies of 1,148 inches, be chargeable each with a duty of And for any other sheet or pins of paper on which any newspaper or supplement shall be printed other than in manner aforesaid, a duty of 0 0 1 INDIA AND CHINA. THE OVERLAND MAIL. We have received the following telegraphic despatch announcing important intelligence from the seat of war in the East : TRIESTE. TatmanAy, JONI 16. The steamer Calcutta arrived this morning at 6.45, in 108 hours from Alexandria. Belling, which had really been captured by Burmese insurgents, not withstanding the denial of the Bengal government, has been re-captured by our forces, with the loss of 30 killed and wounded. Th e Burmese commissioners have not yet returned an answer respecting the Governor-General's pro fered terms ; should they not signify beforo the ex• piration of the 30 days allowed them for considera tion, that they accept those terms, an advance on Ara will take place, and the steamers are being pre pared for the contingency. At Bombay, trade was dull. The delay in the arrival, at Suez, of the Precursor from Calcutta, has enabled the Bombay mail of 23rd May to reach in time for the Bengal steamer from Alexandria.

TURKEY. Oar own correspondent writes: CONSTANTINOPLE, Joint 2. The Turkish government meantime is preparing for every eventuality. "Pro aria et focis " is the watchword; and I never recollect to have witnessed public spirit and popular enthusiasm such as has been manifested at the present juncture, and under the pressure of so many difficulties. All rush to the rescue. The great functionaries of state, and many others among the government officers, it is confidently asserted, have tendered voluntarily their fortunes, salaries, and valuables as a contingent for the national cause—nay, their carriage horses, if required, amounting in the capital alone to many thousands, as a reserve for the artillery service. the young Sultan, wherever he appears in public, is I cheered and greeted by the people. On the occasion of his visit on the 30th ult. to the military wheel at Terik Kior crowds of spectators, ehiefiy Europeans, lined the way, and the children of the Hospizio, a charitable Christian institution close by, in gayest holiday trim and with banners flying, cheered up roariously the young Sovereign en passant, invoking blessings on his head and the aid of Divine Providence for his just and noble cause. His Majesty sent to the Hospizio the munificent sum of 16,000 piastres on the following day. The Journal de Pram fort, which, "although pub. lished in a German town, and in the French lan guage, has a circulation almost exclusively Russian, brings a remarkable report concerning the intentions of the Czar. "He will not," it is said, " occupy the principalities before a vessel of war shall have entered the Dardanelles." The Journal de Franefort, besides being allowed to circulate its selection of European news in the Russian empire, is occasionally made the vehicle of statements and views which the Russian cabinet would pass current u its own in the west of Europe. THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 17, 1853, Letters from Constantinople of the 2nd, speak of defensive preparations of the Porte, but, at the same time, bear witness to the general belief in a pacific termination of present differences. The Divan had given to the governors of districts new instructions exceedingly favourable to the christians, both catho lies and Greeks, of all sects. The commercial world 'as not alarmed, and the maritime movement was considerable. The Russian consul-general, who was left behind by M. Ozeroff for the protection of the commercial interests of his compatriots, had acknow ledged the good %%id which he had upon several late occasions experienced on the part of the Porte. gpe Court. The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by their Royal Visitors, were re•conducted about one o'clock y - day morning, by the'Lord Chsmtwilain and the other great officers of the household, to the Ball-room, where her Ma rty and his Royal Highness remained until a quarter before two o'clock, when they quitted the State Rooms. The Duke and Duchess of Saze Coburg Gotha left at the same time, and the Duchess of Kent, with the Princess Adelaide of Hehenlohe, the Duke of Cambridge and the Princeu Mary ; the hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess, and the Duchess Caroline of Mecklenburgh Sire. I Hu, took their departure from the palace. Dancing ceased on the departure of her Majesty, and the general company quitted the Palace. Prince Albert, attended by Colonel the Hon.

At a quarter-put seven the Queen and Prince Albert, attended by the Countess of Desert, Lord Charles Fitzroy, and Captain the Hon. Dudley de Roe, left Buckingham Palace and visited their Majesties at the legation. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, attended by Lady Anna Maria Dawson and Lord James Murray, also visited:the King and Queen immediately after their arrival. Lord Elphinstone, lord in waiting, and Major-General Buckl e y, equerry i n wa i t i ng to her Majesty, will be in attendance on the King and Queen of Hanover during their visit to thie,country. The Duchess of Gloucester waited the arrival of the King and Queen of Hanover, in Grosvenor-place. Tye Here ditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Meeklenborgh Strelitz, and the Duke and Duchess of Saxe Coburg Gotha, attended by Baroness Wangenbeim. and Baron Treskow, visited their Majesties at the residence of the legation after their arrival. The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by the Duke and Duchess of Bane Cobourg Gotha, honoured the Royal Italian Opera House with their pr esen c e last evening. The royal suite consisted of the Countess of Desert, Baroness de Wangenheim, Lord Rivers, Lord Charles Fitzroy, and Captain the Ron. Dudley De Roc The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat yester day in the council chamber. The lords present were—the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Cornwall, the Judge of the Ad miralty Court, Sir J. Patteson, and Sir E. Ryan. The appeal from the Cape of Good Hope, " Maxwell v. Dente and Dime (part heard), was concluded. Despatches were sent yesterday from the Colonial-office to the Governors of the West India Islands. Despatches were received yesterday from the Governor-General of Canada and from the Governon of the West India Islands. AMERICA. The New York papers received by the Franklin, contain the following items of intelligence : The steam-tug Eclipse bunt her boiler, at Chicago, on the let inst. The explosion was terrific, tearing the boat entirely to pieces, killing a firemen and boy, and severely injuring the engineer, cook, whe, linen, and one deck hand. The captain was also slightly injured. The boilers were new, and the boat, which was owned by Mr. E. R. Black well, of Buffalo, and Captain S. M. Johnson, of Chicago, was valued at 10,000 dole. The engineer's life is despaired of. Ile was dragged out of the engine-room after the ex plosion, terribly scalded. Oa the 3rd, Baltimore and its vicinity were visited by a tornado, which unroofed various buildings, destroyed walls, uprooted , and did considerable other damage. The storm arose very suddenly, and it is feared did great damage to the shipping in the river and bay. So far as we were able to ascertain, the rain, which commenced falling is torrents here about half-past 11 o'clock, did no other damage than to destroy various awnings, and compel tele graphic operators to suspend work. The legislature of Maryland closed its labours on Tuesday night. The act of most g I importance pursed during the session was one chartering the Baltimore and European Steam Navigation Company. Advice, from Havana to the 26th ult. bad been received. It was supposed that the Spanish and English commission to investigate the cue of the slave brig Core, would con demn her at a prize to the British cruiser, by which she was captured. No fresh cargo of slaves had been landed since our previous accounts, although the famous slaver, Lady Suffolk, wis daily expected to make her appearance. Recent accounts from Africa announce that the British naval officers were actively engaged in endeavouring to prevail upon the principal negro chieftains to abandon the traffic in slaves. One of the hitherto most notorious and successful dealers of the kind, the King of Kabendi, had been induced to sign a treaty pledging himself to give up the business. The English cruisers were on the look-out for a vessel engaged in the slave trsde, called the Cumargo, which lately made her appearance off Zanzibar. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Raw Vont, Iwea 4.

"Iwo, by the grace of God, Sovereign Prince of Ar menia, Prince of Korfires, Prince de Lusignan, Prins* of Georgie, Prince of Glum, Duke of rye, Count d'Almarist and Defender of the Armenian faith. To the Ar menians in Turkey—Beloved brothers, and faithful coun trymen : Our will and oar ardent wish is, that you should defend to the last drop of your blood your country and the Sultan against the Tyrant of the North. Remember, my brothers, that in Turkey there are no knouts ; they do not tear your nostrils, and your women are not dogged se cretly or in public. Under the reign of the Sultan there is humanity, while under the Tyrant of the North there are nothing but atrocities. Therefore place yourselves under the protection of God and fight bravely for the liberty of your country and your present sovereign. Pull down your houses to make barricades, and if you have no other arms break your furniture and defend your selves with it. May H guide you on your path to glory ! My blessings and prayers shall attend you where ever you go. My only happiness will be to fight in the midst of you against the oppressor of your country and our creed. May God incline the Sultan's heart to sanction my demand, because under his reign our religion remains in its pare form, while under the Northern Tyrant it will be altered. Remember ut lean, brothers, that the blood that runs in the veins of him who now addresses you is the blood of twenty kings, it is the blood of Nero% Lusignans, and de fenders of our faith; and we say to you let us defend our creed and its pure form until our last drop of blood.

The Lord Mayor, determined that the provinces shall not receive exclusively the benefit of his late move ment to promote science and art amongst the industrial classes, has invited that neglected but most deserving clu b of persons, the muter. and mistreues of our schools to an entertainment to be given for their benefit at the Mansion. house, on the 30th inst., and the treasurers end secretaries to a conference to meet her Majesty's commissioners and devise the means of improving the schools of the metropolis and its easing.. lie has, we are given to understand, found gr►at difficulty In procuring accurate lists of those who conduct such institutions, and has sent round the me tropolis invitations, of which the following is a copy: The Lord Mayor will be gratified by your attendance at the Mansion on the 30th inst., at six o'clock, p.m., to meet the Muter, and Misteesses of the British and Foreign, National, Parochial, and other schools of the metropolis. In sympathy with the general interest now felt in the pro- motion of a more practical knowledge of science and art among all classes, and with the recommendation made by her Majesty in relation to this object, in her speech at the opening of the present session of parliament, the Lord Mayor is adopting various measures for the purpose of giv ing effect to that recommendation. With this view he has, with the valuable assistance of the Society of Arts, collected at the Mansion-house • large amortment of educational models, diagrams, books, apparatus, &c., showing the latest improvements that have been made in these important de partmente. The Lord Mayor is convinced that a taste for science and art, or any knowledge of them which can be of any practical value, can be generally diffused un iew ammo elementary Matemetlea b afrorded at an early age. It is evident that this can only be accomplished by the aid of those schools to which reference has been made ; and be ventures to anticipate that great advantage will arim.from the opportunity now afforded to the teachers of such schools to inspect the collection to which their atten tion is invited.

The snide and their enclosures were fully occupied, and business and pleasure held divided rale. The sun shone forth with summer brilliancy, and the warm air was redo lent of the " ripe harvest of the new mown hay."

This aspiring rival to the " Royal Thames," which has beengradnally progressing in public estimation since, in 1846, it obtained the priv il fte of embroidering the City arms on its Begs, to whisk were added, in 1849, the national emblem of the "Blue Peter," held its second match for the season yesterday, at the old starting ground off Brith. The inenceuvres of the little squadron, although held in mull derable ocatempt by seamen of the " blue water," yet pos sessed • considerable amount of interest. The graceful proportions of the miniature visa the_py company, the exeellent music of the • usher the direction of Mr. Gassrusa, and the r i t t ili gesies et di. navigation, gave both to the initiated and the uninitiated quite sufficient ex. citement to make the day peas over with eclat. The swirl lived button was sported extensively among the company, who assembled on board the Meteor at an early Dour in the morning, and the general expression of oonntenance indicated • perfect readiness to force the Dardanelles or demolish the Russian fleet, should Admirals Dundee sad La Suisse fail in that praiseworthy object. The fleet warniarolielled in the following order : 71SST CLASS. Phantom (26 tuna) --- - -- S. Lane, En. Maud (26 tone) Thonest (26 tone) Cleo. Coop*, Ilaq. 1111COND CLASS Yampa* C. Wheeler, Bs. Kitten T. Hervey, Esq. Pearl The wane was to have extended from Erith to a flag boat immenel &Southend-pier, but time and a light wind obliged Ilme managers to diminish the distance. The boats, six in am** had a fine start and a pleasant breeze, the lead bag taken by Kr. Wheeler's boat, the Vampire, cloudy Mowed by the Kitten, a name of prosperous omen. The Maud got away next, but was gradually over hauled by the larger Phantom. The latter boat, which seemed to be the general favourite, lost some time at starting in getting up her topsail, but, as soon as all her sails began to draw, gave very favourable indication other quality. The Thought, which at the commencement by no means imitated in quickness the mental operation from which she takes her name, gradually improved in rapidity, and soon gave the necessary uncertainty to the operations of the cutters. The Pearl got becalmed in a corner, and for a considerable portion of the race was, in technical language, "nowhere." The weather, which fluctuated from light breeze to calm, alternately raised or depressed the hopes of the various partisans, and the strife of long tacks and short tacks became fast and furious. Now the Phantom was the favourite, but in a moment the Vampire became the observed of all observers. Nautical phraseology became absolutely obscure in its intense tech nicality, and every gentleman on board the steamer who rejoiced in the mystic button became the centre of a crowd of eager inquirers. It must be confessed that at this moment the uncertainty became almost painful to those who were not only well up in the colours, but gifted with sufficient length of vision to discern them at a distance and distin guish them amid the crowd of ships, barques, brigs, and barges, with which the Thames is at certain periods of the tide sure to be crowded. As the breeze gradually freshened on nearing Southend, the position of the vessels began to change. The Phantom, thanks to her superior beam, and great spread of canvas, got and kept the lead, the Vampire was a good second, the Thought had crept up to the third place, the Maud was a fourth, and the Pearl preserved her original modest retirement. The company by this time had got tired of watching, and having refreshed themselves with the excellent faro which Mr. Gore, the "Boyer of the deep," had provided for their refection, inpa to ratite inquiries for the Lug and Queen of Haaover, who were expected to pass up the river to Woolwich about twe o'clock. The Black Eagle was eagerly looked for, but for a long time did not make her appearance, and the general conjecture was that the royal party had gone into Ratnegate. All conjecture, however, - - on this point was put an end to by a long line of smoke that crossed the horizon as the Meteor reached Sea Reath, an 4 immediately after the Black Eagle hove in sight, wish the royal standard flying. A number of lotlii s and genth tacit stood on the paddle-box and exchanged greetings with tl.e Yacht Club company, the Artillery band playing the Na tional Anthem. It was conjectured that her Majesty the Quell of Hanover was among the ladies on the paddle-1)-e of the Black Eagle, but the distance was too great to distin guish individuals , . Immediately after the Meter, cast anchor about six miles on the London side of Sauthend and the yachts passed her on th e i r return jsurney in the following succession, Ph antom, V ampire, Thought, the later lung a few minutes in inukirg an; Reldi:iondl " board" to clear the steamer. The race at this p. tied was very close between the three vessels above-named, the times being 3.43, 3.43 i, 3.51, and from thence forth they had the race amongst them. The Maud, ono of the first class boats, came next in sight, but at too long an interval to leave her any chance. For her, therefore, and the Pearl and Kitten, the race Wal given up. The steamer Laving weighed anchor and proceeded on her return voyage to Eritb, the capabilities of the three vessels in sailing before the wind were now tested. They kept abreast until they had passed Gravesend, when the crew of the Vilna pire rigged • new and larger topsail with a cele rity that dress down general commendation, and front thenceforward kept the lead. Ou approaching the flag staff much interest was excited by the strife between her and her larger opponent as to which should pass round first, although this was merely a point of nauti cal pride, as the Phantom being the first in of her class, had already won the larger prize. Numerous tacks were made, and while the point was in suspense the greatest terest was excited. At last the Vampire beat her opponent by five seconds, and was greeted with • hearty cheer front her partisans. The Thought was several minutes behind. The race on the whole gave general satisfaction, alt:aoui,h some fault was found with the rule of the club, which, by confining the trial to vessels of the same class, awarded only the second prize to the Vampire, the victor in the day's race. The proceedings terminated with the formal del.very of the prizes on the quarterdeck of the steamer, IT Mr. Goodson, commodore of the club, the first prize being a purse of 40 guineas, and the second one a thirty. IRELAND. DUBLIN, JVNE No tory candidate has yet made his rppearunee in Clare, and that party are beginning to feel b01:10 ap prehension that their champion, Col. Vandelt. ur, af!‘...r succeeding in breaking the last election, will not try his chance at the ensuing contest. Things, no doubt, arc greatly altered since the last election. The tory party was then in power, and there were motives to induce the friends of a Derbyite candidate to exert themselves which do not now exist. The publicity that has been given to the Marquis of Conyngham wish that his agent should leave his Clare tenantry entirely free to vote as they please at the ensuing election, is also greatly in favour of the liberal inter est, while the prestige of the unfortunate Sixmile-. bridge affair is certainly against Col. Vandeleur ; so that altogether the chances arc greatly in favour of the re-election of the liberal candidate. There is a marked progressive improvement in the attendance at the Great Exhibition. The number of visitors admitted yesterday was 8,406, being the largest on any half-crown day since the opening. No excursion trains with reference to the Exhibition have yet been run, or any other extraordinary fa cility afforded for the conveyance of strangers to Dublin. A dispute resulting in much inconvenience to the public has existed for a few weeks past between the Irish northern railway companies, but is now to all appearance on the eve of adjustment. It appears that upon the completion of the present temporary viaduct over the Boyne, and consequently upon the first opportunity of running a train direct, the entiro way, between Dublin and Belfast, one of the com panies (the Belfast Junction) forming the chain of communication, thought themselves justified in raising the fares, upon which the other companies refused to act in concert with them. Various complications arose, and loud complaints were heard in every direction ; bat at length the directors of the company which had raised the fares resolved to appeal to the shareholders • and a crowded meeting of the latter, presided over b y the Earl of Charlemont. was held yesterday, at the company's offices in Dub lin, the directors undertaking to abide by the deci sion of the meeting. Lord Talbot do jilalahido wished to have the dispute referred to the decision of the Board of Trade, but this course was not ap proved of; and ultimately, after a very protracted discussion, a resolution was passed. declaring that the fares on the line of the Dublin and Belfast Junc tion should be at once reduced to the old standard; and another vote, expressing the confidence of the shareholders in the prudence of the directors. THE NOBLE SAVAGE. (Fran Diskens's Household Words.) To come to the point at once, I beg to say that I have not the least belief in the Noble Savage. I consider him a prodigious nuisance, and an enormous superstition. His calling rum fire-water, and me • pale face, wholly fail to reconcile me to hint. I don't care what he calls me. I call him a savage, and I call a savage a something highly desirable to be civilised off the face of the earth. I think a mere gent (which I take to be the lowest form of civilisa tion)? better than a howling, whistling, clucking, stomp ing, jumping, tearing savage. It is all one to me whether he sticks • fish.bone through his visage, or bits of trees through the lobes of his ears or birds' feathers in his head; whether he flattens his hair between two boards, or spreads his nose over the breadth of his face, or drags his lower lip down by great weight*, or blackens his teeth, or knocks them out. or paints one cheek red and the other blue, or tattoos him self, or oils himself, or rubehis body with fat, or crimps it with knives. Yielding to whichsoever of these agreeable eccentricities, he is • savage—cruel, false, thievish, mur derous; addicted more or less to grease, entrails, and beastly customs; a wild animal with the questionable gift of boasting ; a conceited, tiresome, blood th irsty, monoto nous humb ug. Yet it is extraordinary to observe how some people will talk about him, as they talk about the good old times; how they will regret his disappearance, in the course of this world's development, from such and such lands where his absence is a blessed relief and an in dispensable preparation for the sowing of the very first seeds of any influence that can exalt humanity ; how, even with the evidence of himself before them, they will either be determined to believe, or will suffer them selves to be persuaded into believing that he is something which their five senses tell them he is not. nen was Mr. Catlin, some few years ego, with his Ojibheway Indians. Mr. Catlin was an energetic earnest man, who had lived among more tribes of Indians than I need reckon up here,and who had written a picturesque sad glowing book about them. With his party of Indians squat ting and spitting on the table before him, or dancing their I miserable jigs after their own dreary manner, he called, in all good faith, upon his civilised audience to take notice of their symmetry and grace, their perfect limbs, and the exquisite expression of their pantomime ; and his eivilised audience, in all good faith, complied and admired. Whereas, as mere animals, they were wretched creature', Tay low in the scale and very poorly formed ; and as men and women possessing any power of truthful dramatic ex pression by means of action, they were no better than the chorus at an Italian opera Is England—and would have been worse if such a thing were possible. views of lime are no new Rs.._ - the noble savage. The greatest writers on natural history found him out long ago, Buffon knew what he wee, and showed why he is the sulky / r at that he is to his women, and bow it happe ns be praised!) that his race is spare in numbers. or evidence of the quality of his moral nature, pass him self fora moment and refer to his "faithful dog." Has he everimproved a dog, or attached a dog, since his nobility first ran wild in woods, and was brought down (at a very long shot) by Pope ? Or does the animal that is the.friend of man always degenerate in his low society ? It is not the miserable nature of the noble savage that is the new thing ; it is the whimpering over him with maud lin admiration, and the affecting to regret him, and the drawing of any comparison of advantage between the blemishes of civilisation and the tenor of his swinish life. There may have been a change now and then in dune dis eased absurdities, but there is none in him. Think of the Bushmen. Think of the two men and the two women who have been exhibited about England for some years. Are the majority of persons—who remember the horrid little leader of that party in his festering bundle of bides, with his filth and his antipathy to water, and hie straddled legs, and his odious eyes shaded by his brutal hand, and his cry of " Qu•u-u-n-aaa! " (Bosjesenan for something desperately insulting I hare no doubt)—con scions of an affectionate yearning towards that noble savage, or is it idiosyncratic in me to abhor, detest, abominate, and abjure him ? I have no reserve on this subject, and will frankly state that, set ting aside that stage of the entertainment when he counterfeited the death of some creature he had shot, by laying his head on his band and shaking his left leg —at which time I think it would have been justifiable homicide to slay him—l have never seen that group sleep ing, smoking, and expectorating round their brazier, bat I have sincerely desired that something might happen to the charcoal smouldering therein, which would cause the immediate suffocatioa of the whole of the noble strangers. There is at present a party of Zulu Katfirs exhibiting at the St. George's Gallery, Hyde-park Corner, Landon. These noble savages are represented in a most agre able manner; they are seen in an elegant theatre, fitted with appropriate scenery of great beauty, and they are described iu a very sensible and unpretending lecture, delivered • ith a modesty which is quite a pattern to all similar exponents. Though extremely ugly, they are ninth better shaped than such of their predecessors as I have re ferred to; and they are rather picturoque to the eye, though far from odoriferous to the nose.
