MOH WATER AT LONDON bRIDOE. Tut. DAT —Moratai, 0, on. Aturnwr, 06. 2a. 73.8nasom—taigulai. 00. Na Alierssio. IL 0.. LONDON, SATURDAY. SEPT. 11. Ir was yesterday our task to ehresiele two very touching and elevating solemnities. One was the inauguration of one of those PEEL statues which promise to be as numerous in modern England as Queen ELEANOR'S croons were in the old; the other was the banquet commemorative of fifty years' good and faithful services rendered by Mr. Oau to his country as member fur Newcastle-upon-Tyne, on the omission of tho veteran's retirement from public life. Both celebrations relate) to the past. At Bury the relatives and admirers of Sir Rosser PEEL cele brated the apotheosis of the Minister who made Free trade the policy of Fnglinel. At Newcastle the Whig leaders of the north performed t he political tune ral rites of a stanch, and sturdy, and worthy cham pion of their party. The plaudits lavished on Sir Bourse PEEL were, alas! wasted, in so far as he himself was concerned, on dead and senseless ears. But the defunct Whig politician, though ho had shuffled off the parliamentary coil, more than realised the kind wish of Wamba fur Athelatane the Un ready; for he not only ate and drank, but made a speech, too, at his own political tyke-wake. The oratory on such occasions was naturally historical rather than practical—more of a retrospective than a prospective character. The speakers dwelt upon great and generous efforts, by which much of good has been achieved for the country; they contrasted the dark past with the brighter present. So far good. The numbers present who lis tened with sympathy to those speeches—the far greater numbers who have read them with a sym pathy at least as intense—are a proof that the efforts of Liberal politicians during the List half century are duly appreciated by . the great majority , of Englishmen; that the principles they labwred to establish have irrevocably become part of the popular creed. Such festivals are a kind of spiritual mile stones, marking the progress that has been made by society. But we confess that at a moment like the present, we could have wished that men like Lord GREY and Lord Mott- Firm, like Mr. FREDERIC& PEEL (who may now be regarded as associated with them), and Mr. BAZLET who, represents the great industrial interests of the north west, had also bestowed a few words upon the future. There is no standing still in this world. We leave the graves of our dearest friends to plunge again in the busy turmoil of life. The most apt and dignified peroration of a funereal eulogium is an exhortation to be as active and inde fatigable as the deceased ;—arid in the present condi tion of the political wor:dsuch a peroration would have been especially apposite. For though it is true that liberal and rational political principles have struck such deep root in the public mind as to be ineradi cable, it is equally true that enemies of these princi ples have crept into office who will exert all their puny weight to pull them up, and will at the least waste time and create eonfusion and irritation by their misdirected labour,. It is a pity that the statesmen we have named slid not tell the public by what means this evil way be put an end to, or whe ther they intend to share in the task. It is very gratifying, no doubt, to be told by Earl Gear, that " no manure which is now demanded by the majority of intelligent and educated moo can be long refused, and no measure which they object to has a chance of being carried ;" . or to be assured by the Earl of CAILISLE that the present ministers are "more in will than in power a re-actionary adminis tration." These are very gratifying, and, we firmly believe, perfectly true statements, but they are ra ther vague and general. The country knows that an administration " in will reactionary " holds the reins of government, and would have liked to have heard, from political leaders on the other side, by what means they propose to disarm It of die power of doing mischief. The truth is, that as the time for the assembling of Parliament draws on, people begin to grow a little impatient to see some signs of vitality on the part of the Liberal leaders. The absence of all demonstra tion with which the Derbyites have been taunted is at least equally remarkable in their opponents. Miniaters,teereover, are in possession, and their genie avowedly is to standee the defensive. But an oppo sition is, by the necessity of ita nature, a be-leaguer. log may; its business ia to attack. Really it is high time that our Liberal leaders were beginning to muster their forces and take up their positions. Is Tummy—which may indeed be regarded as an outlying province of the Austrian empire—the feeble prince who is still permitted to use the title and wear the garb of sovereign, seems to have lost in the panic of 1848 whatever dignity or independence of spirit be may have previously been supposed to poem. During his unworthy self-exile from his 'sentry, he is said to have vowed that if be ever r e back to Florence he would surrender the bodies of his people to an Imperial garrison, and their aids to the Papal hierarchy. The facts fully justify the tale. Austrian troops crowd every street ad occupy every post in Tuscany ; and nearly emery true has been swept away of that memo. sable Leopoldine code by which his illustrious lemisetor, though an absolute ruler and good Catholic, Mak to emancipate the laity from a clerical yoke mar which they groaned.

Na' est any length et.tinie during which a nation or a government may have enjoyed the immunities of emancipation from its sway, extinguish in the ecclesiastical heart the fond hope of being able to weave again the pot e nt though impalpable web of spiritual suojuga tiou. In Germany, ere yet the heaving of the revolutionary tide had subsided in 1849, a Synod was held at Wurzburg, wherein were represented nearly all the separate churches between the Alps and the Baltic in communion with Rome; and by its resolu tions a common course of policy was adopted by them all, having fir its object the abnegation of all contra by the temporal power, whatever that might be, over the properties or privileges of the clerical body. The Joscphisn laws of Austria and the more recent con cordats established between the Holy See and Prussia, Bavaria, and other states, were lOW /We denounced as irreligious encroachments on the di% ino feof, which had once in unqualified in tegrity been held by the bishops and clergy of an unschismatic world. Measures were then and there systematically commenced for the recovery of many lofty powers, which had either been partitioned with Protestants after the Reformation, or sequestrated by the temporal autho rity for the skit of its own peace, and that of its subjects generally. And strange u it may appear, throughout all southern and central Germany the decrees of the council of Wurzburg have already been acknowledged and admitted by the despotic rulers of those regions. Prussia still wavers; bat among her neighbours, not only has the supreme control over education been surrendered to the Roman clergy, but their veto and interference in • ' variety of concerns long secularised there as here— and affecting directly and necessarily the pease of i families, the legitimacy of offspring, and the trans mission of property—have been abjectly recognised as lawful and requisite to be obeyed. But Europe is not solitary in these exhibitions of a reviving tendency towards spiritual tyranny and intolerance. From the remote regions of the New World, accounts have still more recently reached us of like doings. In Mexico, as until lately in Pied mont, the old canonical law respecting the invalidity of marriages not solemnised by a priest still prevails k and the republican government in its present state of weakness and prostration is doubtless ill able to re sist any demands made by the church for its enforce ment—however at variance with its own con% ictiona, and repugnant to the common sense and judgment of the time. A case has arisen, however, which is likely to put impoverished and distracted Mexico to the test. A French resident in the capital, desirous of marrying a woman, also of French extraction, was fur some reason not explained refund the nuptial rites by direction of the bishop of the diocese; and his love being stronger than his loyalty to the canon law, ho induced hie betrothed to accompany him to Vera Cruz, where they were duly married by the French Consul, ac• cording to the form laid down in the Code Napoleon. On their return home the man was placed under arrest, and eventually brought to trial for contains ci)usly disobeying the mandate of the bishop. He was condemned to undergo imprisonment for a period of two years, and to be kept to hard labour. The French envoy was appealed to by the unhappy bridegroom, but it would appear that even his remon strances had been vain. Finally the matter has been referred to Paris, and it will be curious to observe what coarse the most dutiful son of the church will take on the occasion. VI PIP ,DA' FRANCE. PARIS, TICINO/A' Ersumo. [The following is the article which caused the suspension of the Corsairs, to which we alluded yes terday.] " • WORD 17P01.1 TIISION.

The hour of combats has passed, let as shake sands over the Min of the parliamentary ',pmts. For my owa part, I am of opinion that tho fusion has never camel to progress. Immediately after the 24th of February, too -1 hated voices were raised to invoke reconciliation.

However, we met and cease to an understanding upon the ground of the ommon danger ; after the days of June, 1848, all the beet of us were fusionists.

It was also signified to the editors by friends ac quainted with the motives of their punishment, that some remarks of the ilbesaire on the absence of any mention of the government in the peace addresses from England had been considered as offensive. Such are the grounds for the suppression of a publication involving a large amount of property, and having an extensive circulation. lam informed that the pub lication of the Coraaire will be continued at Brussels, where it is to be hoped that it will meet with a better fate than the Bonilla /1-anfais. During the last month the public has been seri ally occupied with rumours concerning the health of Louis Napoleon. It would at first seem singular that • man in unsound health should carve out for himself a month of such severe labour, as must ne cessarily attend the journey which the President is about to make through the departments. Neverthe less, I am assured from several well-informed quar ters that the Prince suffers from a malady of which the symptoms are very grave. The name given to this ailment is rather vague; they call Exhaustion. Such • term supposes the submission to trials to which the frame is unequal; but of what nature these excesses are seems not well ascertained. The Su ek has touched to-day lightly upon this delicate subject, and will, I believe, receive contra diction in the Moilikur in these terms:— " The Sleek announces that the President of the Republic has been indisposed during the last days.' We believe we can declare this news to be com pletely false." I learn from acertain source that, notwithstanding the contradiction by the Independence Beige, of t►e statement that several legitimists had been arrested in Paris, this is an undoubted feet. Tho cause of the arrests is stated to be the formation of a cora ' mittre with a view to the Parts elections of the 26th. A sufficiently startling announcement appears in , the papers today—nothing less than the " Arrest of ' the Marquis of Londonderry," which forms a head ing in large print to numerous paragraph.. At first it was imagined by some that the chivalrous friend of Abd-el-Fader, presuming too far upon his former Intimacy with Prince Louis Napoleon, had been pressing his suit for the liberation of the African chief with unbecoming pertinacity, and had been seat to Maas for his indiscretion. Others went so far as to suppose that the noble marquis had been conspiring to burn the Chateau d'Amboise end rescue M the ptimetter. AU pllcli were,. thattitreet wits bail' , t ' tkpA the —.ea to find the a Valet bound • it occurred on a of hne hot, and _ lordship was in ,enstody for foie minutes. It appears the report of some law proceedings before 'maim chamber of the :Civil Tribunal yesterday that, in Deoember, 1830, the agents of the Marquis informed him that they had received a letter from M. &opt, a wine merchant of Paris, stating that he was about to re from the wine trade, that he bad a large concedes of wines of superior quality, which ho was an to dispose of, and that if the Marquis of decry would consent to receive them, he wadi Mam coals in payment. Shortly a ft er the shine vies sent, accompanied by a bill fixing the ash, et 10,000 fr. The Marquis had not Ism disposed to engage in the transaction, but an ram* of the wines a correspondence took place, and be ended by accepting them, and by giving orders to havw thi coals which M. Soupe had demanded forwarded. Things w. re in that state when some time after, the Marquis of Londonderry came to Paris. To his great surprise, one morning, a garde-du COMMIMIS and two of his men waited upon him, and told kin that he was their prisoner, and must be carried off be the debtors prison, in the Rue de Clichy. At the same time they . produced a judgment of the Civil Tribunal author ising the provisional incarceration of the noble lord. The judgment set forth that it had been granted in virtue of the law of 1832, on the demand of M. Soupe, and on his representation that the Marquis of Londonderry was his debtor, was a foreigner, and might quit France. The marquis found the plea of peerage of no avail. Nothing hat the money in full could save him from incarceration. In this straight Mr. Rothschild came to his t oo l paying the 10,000 fr. into court, to abide the of an action. The cause now came on upon the merits. M. Maillard, counsel for the marquis, took exception to the quality of the wino, objected that the payment was to be in coals, and that the arrest, as for a money debt, was there fore unfounded. He moreover spoke of damages for a malicious arrest, as a set-off to the claim. The court thought the issues raised much too complicated to be decided as a vacation cause, and ordered the matter to stand over. What I told you yesterday of M. Dupin'a speech at Clameoy will prepare you to hear that he has been vigorously attacked by M. Emile de Girardin in the tree.., who declares that the proposition of the ox-President of the National Assembly m equivalent to putting a progressive tax upon the poor. _ _ The Marquis do Laroebejaquekin has addressed a letter to the 4uernbl4e Nationuk, which, after declar ing that the address of the Council General of tho Deux-Sivres, which bad been attributed to him by that journal, wu proposed not by him but by Gen. Allard, and signed by all the members present, as well as by himself, proceeds as follows : Prince Louis Napoleon, in doing me the honour to name me president, was well aware that I woeld never repu diate my principles; he was awe,, oleo that I bad pro tested against the coup-d'elar of December 2. I had, in fact, told him so myself. Since that period, I, like many °then of my colleagues, was enabled to appreciate events and the situation of Prance; I bad seen men and political parties closely enough to be convinced that, if the coup d'eat of December 2 had not taken place, I certainly should not have had the satisfaction of witnessing . the triumph of my own opinions, but that we should have inevitably fallen into the hands of a fraction, red or blue, which would have given us a regime of which I cannot say that I should have in the slightest degree to acknowledge the mildness. I did not desire to see the present government, but it has the double merit in my eyes—first, of preventing others from appearing which I should have infinitely lea desired to bee; and neat, of having its basis no the national will, of appeal ing to all the men of worth, who aro willing to give their loyal and disinterested cooperation to the service of their country, without asking for any renunciation of their prin ciples. Ido not think that Louis Napoleon would think himself honoured by the support of apostates. This apology of Larochejaquelein's meets with little favour from the legitimist party. The Assemb:fe declines to publish Ins letter. The Paris and Havre Railway Company is said to be very uneasy at the report of a fusion of the Northern Company with the Bt. Germain, which latter now works a part of the Havre line. The possession of the station at Paris by the powerful Northern Company is looked on with great appre hension. The report is generally contradicted by those interested in the Northern and Bt. Germain companies, but not with* sufficient distinctness to calm the fears of the weaker rival. The lisdletin des Luis publishes a decree from the President of the Republic, opening en extraordinary credit of 160,000 f. to the Minister of the Interior, to be employed in the purchase of the materiel neces sary for public fetes.

The inauguration of the railway from Metz to Sar rebruck is to take place on the 15th October, and will be attended by some cabinet ministers both of France and Prussia. The following official announcement is made in the Afotaikur with reference to the disturbances at Guadeloupe, occasioned by the appointment of M. Charles Damn : "According to intelligence received from the Governor of Guadeloupe to the 13th August, the sort of effervescence which has manifested itself ammipt the parties which divide the colony, had altogether 'abode& The country enjoyed perfect tranquillity." The Moniker sa,ys:—" The Minister of Marine, l animated by the desire to turn to account for the wants of the navy the forests which cover certain regions of our great African colony, has given to M. Roussel, sub-engineer of the first class of naval con structions, a mission to proceed to Algeria, accom panied by the ship carpenters, Loyer and 1)ol. M. Roussel will not only examine the forests of Edough and La Calle, but the portions of forest ground which have hitherto escaped the researches of our en gineers. He is authorised, by way of experiment, to purchase for the navy some hundreds of stereo of the finest timber produced in Algeria—namely, oak, ash, and beech." PARIS, FAIDAT EVINI.3IO. The monthly returns of the Bank published today are considered favourable. The metallic reserve has increased about 81 millions. The discount accommo dation shows an improvement of nearly 61 millions, of which 4 millions are for Paris, and 21 for the branch-banks, the amount of the former being 85 mil lions, and of the latter 1031. Advances on French securities have declined both in Paris and the de partments, in the former 41 millions, and in the about 1 of a million, the whole amount advanced in Paris being 311 millions, and in the departments 61 millions. Advances on railway shares and hoods remain nearly as they were, having fallen off about 1 million in Paris, and increased 11 millions in the branch-banks, the sums advanced in the former amounting to 221 millions, and in the latter to a little over 7 millions. The 25 millions which re mained due to the Bank from the loan of 50 millions, and which were lately repaid by the state, have now disappeared from the asset side of the returns. On the side of the liabilities, the notes in circulation have declined 5/ millions in Paris, whilst remaining about as they wore in the provinces. The account current of the Treasury again shows an increase of 41 millions, the amount at present being 1331 mil lions. Private accounts-current have declined 121 millions in Paris, remaining about stationary in the branch banks, the amount of the former being 1071 millions, and of the latter 251. The whole amount of the metallic reserve is now 600 millions, to 6354 millions of notes in circulation. The prefects of the Boobs, the Youne, and the Indre-st-Loire have suspended several municipal councils. The mass of the municipal electors have refrained from voting.

The editor of the Hamburg Reform was sum moned on the 3rd inst. to the town hall, where the magistrates informed him that he would not be al lowed in future to make allusions to Prince Louis Napoleon and his government The Reform had published an article on the ball at the Halle in Paris, and it had been formally complained of by the minister of France to the senate. The police have also warned Messrs. Keiling and Ploth, the directors of a theatre, to discontinue all allusions to Louis Bonaparte in their plays. According to a statement in the Augsburg Gazette, M. Ploth had received another communication from the police on behalf of his llaytian Majesty Sonlongue, whom he had burlesqued in a piece called the " Haytian Feast." DANUBIAN PRINCIPALITIES. The Trieste Gazette says :—A remarkable affair has occupied public attention at Semlin within these few days. Upon the report that Full Pacha had left for Constantinople by the steamer, and that his harem would follow him, a young man came from Belgrade to Semlin, and made his appearance before the authorities, stating that he was a Bosnian ; that five years before his sister had been torn from her friends, M ahommedsnized, and made the slave of Fazli Pacha, and was at that moment in his harem on board the steamer. The sister at the time of her seizure was seven years of age ; the father was stripped of his possessions and murdered ; the mother compelled to conform to Islamism; and he, the deponent, who refused to follow her example, was thrown into fetters, escaped, suffered great privation, reached Belgrade, and had since followed the trade of a smith. Subsequent inquiries enabled him to ascertain that his sister, who was now thirteen years of age, was a slave in Fazli Pscha's harem, and he now, therefore, craved the assistance of the court. This was granted, and he was conducted to the steamer, with adequate protection, for the pur pose of identifying his sister. The son of the Pacha, who accompanied the harem, at first stoutly denied that the girl was there, and then refused to give her up, and asserted the non-responsibility of his father for anything . which had happened in Berrie. In the end, a commission was sent to Belgrade to Hurschid Pacha, to whom the whole affair was represented. This ruler decided that the girl should be brought to Belgrade, and there abide the issue of the litigation. The Semlin authorities, however, seeing that the chances were that she would again fall into the hands of a Moslem Pacha, determined to keep her in their city will the receipt dame superior order. ITALY. FLORENCE, SEPT. 3. The most important feature that has yet presented itself in the trial for high treason now going slowly on in this city is doubtless the speech made by Guerrazzi against the competency of the Corte Regis tribunal. His exordium appearing too diffuse to the President Nervini, that functionary reproached the prisoner with not adhering to the subject. "Signor presidents," replied Ouerrazzi, "I have been silent for forty-one months, allow me now to speak." And speak he did, with great vigour, against the mode in which the accusation had been laid against him and his companions, rendering all responsible for the acts of each individual, and each individual responsible for all his fellow-prisoners. I have already informed you that this appeal was rejected, u also all the other objections and demands of the prisoners hitherto advanced. The appeal to the Grand Ducal amnesty would have seemed un answerable, as Leopold declared in that document that ho forgave all offences against himself, but could not pardon attacks upon the constitution. Now he himself has totally abolished the very con stitution for violating which Guerrazzi and his com panions are on trial. Strange inconsistency ! Amongst other witnesses whom Guerrazzi has in voked in his behalf, are the Grand Duke himself, and his ministers Capponi and Serristori. It is superfluous to state, that his demand was immedi ately rejected. Many persons who can be by no means suspected of attachment to Guerrazzi, are now indignant at the manner in which his trial is con ducted. The court is now taken up with the evidence pro duced in support of the accusation, the reading of which will occupy some time. Yesterday, the court reposed from its labours, hut to-day operations have been resumed. Guemzzi and most of his fellow prisoners look fatigued and anxious, but the bald head and restless eye of Montazio, the ultra-republi can, ere prominent on the upper bench, nor does he appear much affected by his long imprisonment or his present critical situation. Some grand ceremonies are to commence on the 4th inst., and conclude on the Bth with the corona tion of the image of the Madonna. In order to keep up the fervour of Florentine devotion, • pamphlet has been published containing a long list of miracles performed by this supernatural image or picture, which is declared to owe its origin, in the year 1262, to the unrivalled skill of s celestial hand. ROMAN STATES. The Roman correspondent of the Augsburg Ga zette writes on the 28th ult.:—" For several days past a considerable number of revolutionary hand bills have been circulated in Rome ; they are distri buted broad cut in our streets and squares every evening. The sbirri are this evening patrolling the streets, arresting here and there a passenger, who is subjected to a searching of pockets, and if carrying one of the dangerous papers, carried off. The police have also been busy making domiciliary requisitions; twenty-five such were executed two days ago, and u many more yesterday. The bills in circulation are descriptions of the funeral of Mamini's mother at Genoa, a funeral oration on the four political delin quents executed at Fief' on account of the funeral of Vidi, the emigrant."

The Paris Cooishlutionnel says : Austria ham just made an additional step is her attempts to absorb all the petty states of Italy in a esunasercial and customs' union.

TURKEY. The Constantinople correspondent of the nest. Cor., writing on the 25th ult., says, of the tiring on the Modeste : " The affair of the Modeste is settled. It originated in a misunderstanding, which has disap peared upon explanation, and the vessel has already run into this haven." An ordinance of tho &mien gesernment, pub lished at lklgrado on the Id mat., forbids to foreigners the acquisition of real estate in Servia. No alien will be allowed to hold land in the name of a Serb. Tho Conalitsitionnel says : Oar oorrespondent at Constantinople confirms the intelli gence that the negotiations have terminated very nearly in conformity with the wishes of France on all the secondary affairs. Independently of the satiafection already given, the Divanhas accorded the authoroation to build a Roman catholic church at Antioch, and in addition has accorded an indemnity of 480,000 piastres (a hundred and some thousand francs) to be divided amongst the persons com plaining both at Aleppo and at Janina and Tripoli. AL Duvernoy, the French subject who was lately ill treated by some Turkish soldiers, will have fur his part 30 000 piastres (from 7,000 fr. to 8,0001 r.). It was said, besides, that it was in contemplation to demand the reimburse ment of the expenses occasioned by the expedition to Tripoli. The Porte, whilst yielding on these different points, has expressed its annoyance at being treated with so much rigour, and it was easy to see that it felt a certain res. ancient at what had occurred. There is still some idea of going back on tho affair of the Holy Places, and it is even stated that the Marquis de La valette has already handed in a note on the subject to the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Hitherto no reply has been given. The general opinion is, that this affair will not be terminated se easily as the others, in consequence of the interest which Russia has to engage the Turkish govern ment to maintain its last firman. Said Pacha has received ' a letter from Abbas Focht, inviting him, in the most Arse tionate terms, to forget the past and to return to Egypt. There he declares he shall be treated with all the conside. ration due to his rank. The Porte, informed of this over ture, which is a consequence of the negotiations of Filed Effendi, Insists, it is said, exceedingly to determine Said Fiche to aivede to the wish of the Viceroy. After the fires have come a series of robberies, which have produced the greatest terror and consternation amongst all classes ..f the population. It appears that a band of armed brigands have successively attacked wealthy houses in the country round the capital. After having committed a considerable robbery at the country seat of Fuad Effenili, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, where there were not less than 60 servants, they attacked the next night the house of Taxim-Bey, an employ( of the palace, where, being opposed, they made use of their arms. A sanguinary engagement ensued, but not one of the robbers could be srrested. They afterwards made an attack on the house of Mustapha•Pecha, president of the council; and on the 22nd they attacked the house of M. Maksnut, an Armenian banker, where they also u•ell their arms. No arrest had bees effected, an impunity which it was thought might encourage their audacity. An attempt was made on the 20th to assassinate Baron Tecco, the Sardinian minister. He was proceeding on horseback to the country seat of the Grand Vizir, when in a lonely spot he heard a shot fired, and at the same moment a bullet whistled past his face; but neither lie nor his servant saw the person who fired. The researches of the police also re mained without result, so that the matter is quite inexpli cable. M. Forth-Konen, the French minister at Athens, has been at Constantinople for some days with hie wife, being on his way home , on leave of absence. Rechid- Paths, it is said, had sold to the Sultan, for 10 millions of piastres, the fine palace which he was building on the Bos phorus, and which is not yet finished. SOUTH AMERICA.

ALLEN, THE ARTIBT.—We learn that the City of London School bas given fifty guineas to the widow and family (eight children) of their late pro fessor of drawing, Mr. J. W. Allen, the well-known lands cape painter, whose sudden death on the 29th ult., left them in such a state that it was found necessary to make an ap peal to his friends and the admirers of arts. The masters kayo also given thirty guineas. As 1,0001. would perms needy bene fi t the widow and family of this gifted and truly English artist, a great effort is being mado to raise that sum. _ . --- GREAT INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION, 1833.—The into of the exhibition at Dublin presents a very animated and interesting scene just at this moment. At its northern and western sides about 80 sawyers are actively engaged in cut ting portions of the large supply of Umber already carted to the lawn. The centre of the site is occupied by platforms upon which the rihsof the centre and side halls are being male by a numerous body of carpenters. Three of the ribs for the aide hills have been completed, the construction of which is meet ingenious. They consiq of laminre of irre gular lengths, averaging 10 feet, the abutting joints being so arranged that no two in the rib romeopporate each other, by which great uniformity of strength is obtained. The whole rib consists of ten thicknesses, ranging from one inch to one inch and a half. These are secured together by inch, and inch and three quarter screws, according to the thick. ' aim of the Imbue. The weight of the timber in each rib is about 28 cwt., end about 1,200 screws are used in its oon struetion. On a platform In a portion of the space to be I occupied by the centre hall one of the larger ribs has been chalked out ; its span is 100 feet, and it will weigh nearly sin tons. Upon reference to the dimensions of the transept of the Great Exhibition, we find that the height to the to was 107 feet, its breadth 72 feet, and its extreme length from north to south 408 feet. The centre hall of our exhi bition will be within three feet o. high, 28 feet wider, sad about 17 feet longer. The whole breadth occupied by the three halls will be about 300 feet. Towards the end of this month some of the metal pillars will be east, and placed on the stone foundation, which we perceive has been raised to the required level. 1)00R8 AND DOORWAYS IN TURIN.—In no city of Europe are there more mseniffeent doorways than In Turin; indeed, the whole arehitec seal wealth of the place seems to have been treasured up for this ono feature; not only are the art and labour exquisite, bat the material is often of the richest and most costly description. Not are the doorways only remarkable, but the doors themselves are equally worthy of sttention, the carving on tansy of them being of equally good design and execution, and the four aeatas6r. is generally rendered complete by the guards of broom which protect them from injury wham °pea.— TA• Molder. ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. The extension of the Electric Telegraph to Hurst Castle in Haute, opposite the Needle rock-, in the late of Wight, may be considered of national importan. e. Nine year above a 'dozen foreign malt packetsanaintn .4.01 p ee . t h e needles every month, averaging one nearly every u her day, on their way to Southampton, and the fact of the i t gimmick to the latter place will be known by means of the Hurd Castle Telegraph two hours before their actual erri•il. At soon as the extension of the telegraph to Hurst Castle n completed, the Southampton Chamber of Commerce parpeee effecting some arrangement with the Post-oftiee and rail wa y authorities by which, up to the latest ',timid of the day possible, the foreign mails shall be despatched to Leak, el from Southampton, either by ordinary or special Veiny, immediately on their arrival at the latter pure way authorities are opposed to special trains, unl e ss notice of them can be previously given to every portion of their • line. lly the extension of the electric telegraph to Hurst, such notice can be given. It is calculated that, taking into consideration the readiness with which foreign mails can be sorted in the General Post-o ffi ce, and d i st r ib ute d 'to all parts of the country (ruin thettee, and con sidering also the rapidity with which the mails will be forwarded to London from Southampton, when the Hurst Cie'e telegraph is completed, that the utmost possible convenience will be provided for the poldie neat year. By the telegraphic overland express to iitti ampton annouucing the arrival of foreign pickets off the Isle of Wight, the Post-office, railway, and mail amp dly authorities will he able to make every prep:it-stem for flu quick landing and despatching of the mails to the Oeuvre" Post-office. Practically, it may be said that the foreign mails will be landed in London next year, for on express train flees not take two hours to get to Limilon from Southampton. Now, when the immense ruff of effl cials iu the General Post•effice is cousidi red, end the numerous and direct pedal communications thins are from London to all parts of the country, there cannot be a doubt that foreign mails will be distributed all over the United Kingdom quicker from the metropolis than Irian any other town. There is cot much doubt that the eaten sion of the telegraph to Hurst Castle will be remunerative. The mail companies, the Custom-house officers, the London newspaper press, and the Poet-office, must all receive mes sages by it. The families of the edict re of the ships, the friends and relatives of paseeogert by foreign mail-packets, numbers of whom are always in Southampton when the packets are ax petted, will no doubt order messages announcing the arrival of the packets to be sent to them. A code of day and night &gnu!, must be invented, to distinguish the arri val of the various lines of mail packets. The Herat tele graph will be completed by forming a double wire under ground from Brockenhurst station on the Southampton and Dorchester Railway. It is expected that the extension will be completed in a month (rem hence. A FORTUNE TELLER AT MANCHESTER. Yesterday, at the Manchester Borough Court, Augustus Lammens Jackson, a Dane, who wake English with a slightly foreign accent, was charged with obtaining money by fortune telling. Sub-inspector Duckworth stated that about 9 o'clock, on the previous evening, he went to the house of the prisoner, No. 13, Berwick-row, street, and asked to have his fortune told him. When he went he was told that Mr. Jackson was engaged, and he had to walk about until he was at liberty. Duck worth then went in, and was taken up.stairs. The prisoner asked him what ho limited to be told of, and the officer replied that he wished to hear something about his mother, who, having got married some years ago, went to America. He said he had not heard from her for some time. He chiefly wanted to know whether she was still living or not, and also, what would be his prospects if he were to emigrate. The prisoner asked the ages of Duckworth and his mother, bet the officer could not tell him. The prisoner thee said he could not divine his fortune by " the book," but he would "set the glass." He gave Duckworth • pear-shaped glass. whilst he himself studied anothir glue of an elliptick shape, which was fi xed on two piece. of wood, an d turned round by the hand. He kept Duckworth look fag in this way for some time, and then got a hook, from which he read something. The prisoner then said, " 1 can see your mother: she is living in Toronto, and keeping a shop. She is living with a man. I can see him, as if ho was very poorly. Ile is very poorly —a dark complexioned men, tall, and thin." Ile told Duck worth that he would emigrate to America; that on his way he would meet with a sandy-haired and sandy-a mplexioned female, who had plenty of money. Duckworth was to "stick to her," for she would love him better than hie own wife did. Ile would have many difficulties to en counter; ho would be nearly drowned; but when he reached America he would be very well to do, and would go to live with agentleman, and would travel with him. Duckworth paid 2a. Old. for this information, and the pri soner then returned him the halfpenny. The shillings were marked, and were found in the prisoner's possession when apprehended. When Duckworth went to the prisoner, several young women were having their fortunes told. The prisoner said that one of them had been keeping company with a young man ; that he got married, and she still kept compacy with him, and when she looked at the glass" it went quite black. Police-constable Cottingham stated that shortly atter Duckworth called on the prisoner, he went also. Cottingham told him, in answer to his questions, where he came from, and that his ago was 32 ; that he was born on the 4th April. This the prisoner wrote down. The officer then asked for information about his wile. He said he left her and her children in Manchester some years ago, and went to Glossop ; and that after he had been away a length of time the parish took his family in charge. The children were now in the workhouse, and he believed his wife had gone to America. The prisoner asked if she had any friends, and Cottingham said he hail a brother-in-law in America. The prisoner said she had gone there, and was living with a black man. (Cottinehanis wife was at the time at home in bed.) The prisoner advised Cottingham to leave his children in the workhouse and go to Australia, where he would do better than stopping in this country. l'risoner told Cottingham also that ho was born under the planets, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus. The prisoner, when asked what he had to say, in answer to the charge, told the magistrates that some time ago he studied astronomy. When in America, some time beck, he ruled the planets for fun. He was now out of a situa tion, and thought that this profession was open in the same way as itwas in America, so he had bills printed, and gave them to everybody. Some of these bills were produced in court, and they were headed, " The greatest wonder of the age—Professor Jackson." The hill then proceeded to state that the professor was "the renowned and only onoman'ic planet ruler in the universe," and had " taken chambers in 13, Berwick row, Miller -street, Manchester, wherein he would display his wonderful art in divining the destinies of those who might be prepared to favour him with their pre sence." The astrologer had been patronised for several years by the nobility and gentry, and the publi c at l arg e, an England, Scotland, Ireland, and America. The hours of business were from 6 o'clock till 10 p.m. At the foot of the bill was the following :—" N.B. The astrologer will at tend parties in town or country if required. A lady will attend to receive visitors." When the prisoner was appre hended the officers found in his house "A New Astrono mical Dictionary," by John Hill, M.D., 1765; a "Nautical Almanac and Astronomical Ephemeris ;" and a German Bible. Among the prisoner's private memoranda was found a scrap of paper, with the following words upon it: " The primary planets wich i work are, Mercury, Venus, the Earth, Mars, Vesta, gems (Ceres), Pallas, Juno, Jupi ter, Saturn, and Hershel sr Uranus." This was found in a email pocket-book called "The Christian Day." Jackson was committed to prison fir a month. LORD DALKEITH, the eldest son of the Duke of Buccleugh, came of age on Thursday last, and the event was appointed to be celebrated at Beaulieu AbSey, in Hampshire, one of the Duke's seats, with great lestinty. An ox was to be routed whole, and old English sports wen to be renewed on the Duke's grounds. A large number of persons from all parts of the country were invited to Bess lieu to participate in the festivities. A steamer started from Southampton for Beaulieu river with persons to wit ness the celebration, and numbers crowd the Solent from the Isle of Wight for the same purpose. Bands of music and proce , sions paraded the village of Beaulieu and the Abbey grounds during Thursday. There could not hare been less than 3,000 or 4.000 persons congregated at Beau lieu to witness or join in the festive scenes, which were, however, all spoilt by unfavourable weather. Torrents of rain fell during the day, and nearly all persons present were drenched to the skin. The taverns, public houses, and beer•shops were besieged for reluge and refreshments. People were obliged to fight their way into the inns, and then could obtain nothing to eat or drink, owing to their numbers. The grand dinner to the truantry and visitors was in the open air, and three times the company were obliged to rush from the table to mope from the deluge of rain that poured on them. The park became a perfect marsh, and the courtyard a pond. Ladies were compelled to wade through the latter up to their knees in water to take refuge in the Abbey. Anything:more inaa spicioua and unfortunate cannot well be Imagined. Beau lieu Abbey is oslubrated as the refuge of Margaret of Anjou during the wan of the rows, and as the sanctuary of the pretender, Perkin Warbeek. It was inherited by the Duke of Buceleuch, from his uncle, Lord Montague, the friend of Sir Walter bcott. COMMERCE OP FRANCE AND ENOLAND.-At pre sent there are 609 vessels 10/I.liog in the port of Liverpool, and although they are destined to almost every other part of the world, there is not one entered for a French port. We believe that the same thing will be found at the port of New York. Any system could scarcely he carried turther. It is, indeed, a perfect sample of protection to native Indus try, or, rather, of national folly. —L irerpool Mercury. FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE QUEEN'S FARE, RlON nesult.—On Tuesday morning an accident occurred in the Queen's Park, which unhappily was attended with fatal consequences. A party of the 70th Highlanders, at present stationed in the Castle, were engaged in ball practice at the place usually chosen fo. this purpose at the Hunters' Bog, near the hue of Arthur's Beat. Unfortunately the gun of one of the party hung fire, and he immediately lowered it for the purpose of examining the cause of the ' obetruetior.. Whilst doing so, the rest of the party who had fired filed off as usual, and while one of them was standing close to the soldier whose gun had not been gred, the gun come in contact with its ofter's belt, and ismer* atelv went off, lodging the contents in the young mina's aide who was looking on. The ball passed through his heart and he immediately fall. He survived only a few minutes. The soldier who had been the unfortunate cause of his eon rade's death, on geeing him fall was very much affected.— Scotsman.
