The following official despatch has been received from Omer Pacha, dated Sphakia, July 18 : " Our soldiers. after two fight*, have routed the insurgents, and occupied the heights of Calikratie and Sfendo ; and after securing possession of those mountains and the villages of tho same name, they proceeded across the plain of Askifo, where they effected their junction with the corps which came from Apocoron, crossing the defile of Grappi. The villages of Comitandes and Nipero, the defile situated between those two villages, the defile and the villages of Askifo, Primmer*, Alicombos, all the villages of the eastern part of Sphakia, and, lastly, the whole district of Sphakia, ex cepting eight villages, which will easily be re duced, are now in the hands of the imperial i troops. The only resource left to the insurgents is to take refuge in the rocky and narrow valleys of the village of Samaria, where they can only remain a few days, after which there will be no thing left to them but submission. The insurgents who had taken refuge in two caverns at Pachtanos and Capsodusso submitted to-day to the number of 250 men and women, amongst whom were Captain Amagousti Papadaki, a member of the so-called provisional government, Captain Manoedi, and several other chiefs. Their lives, and the property which they had placed in the caverns have been, and will be, religiously respected. Up to the pre sent 47 barrels of gunpowder and 25 cases of other ammunition have been discovered there. The third division have also effected their junction with the principal corps at Calikratie. The number of muskets sent to the authorities amounts to 6,000. The Ferik Ali Beni Pacha has subdued the district of Kluane,. Colonel hlustapha Bey has just cut to pieces the four hundred Hellenic volunteers lately disem barked in the island, together with their com mander, Captain Mietto, and two Greek officers. He also captured 3,000 tins of biscuits, 400 over coats, and 1,200 rifles. THE SULTAN. COBLENTZ, JULY 24. The Sultan, Fuad Pacha , and a numerous suite, accompanied by the Prussian Lieutenant-General Boyer, Major Lehndorf, and the Court Chamber lain Puckler, have arrived here from Aix-la- Chapelle. The Sultan was received at the railway station by the King of Prussia at the head of the generals of his staff and the authorities. The Sultan, who wore the order of the Black Eagle, and Fuad Pacha, were in the first carriage, and in the second carriage the Turkish princes. A review of 7,000 men is now being held, after which a trip on the Rhine will be undertaken. The town will be brilliantly illuminated this evening, and the streets are thronged. His Imperial Majesty and his suite will leave to-morrow. The weather is fun). PRUSSIA. BERLIN, JULY 21. King William intends visiting Switzerland for the benefit of his health. After completing the course of mineral waters, his Majesty is now drinking at Ems. Four millions of the amount of five millions to be issued in Treasury Bonds have been taken nearly at par.

The Railway Journal of this evening states that, in consequence of invitations from England and France, the North German Maritime States will send repre sentatives to a commission which is to meet in Berlin in the beginning of August to deliberate on a maritime code of signals. PRUSSIA AND DENMARK. BERLIN, JOLT 24, EVIDIENG. It is stated that the Danish reply to the Prussian despatch on the subject of guarantees for the pro tection of the Germans in the North Schleswig dis tricts to be ceded to Denmark, leaves open a way for a mutual direct understanding between the cabinets of Berlin and Copenhagen. The attitude taken up by the Danish government in this matter is by no means unfriendly. FRANCE. PARIS, JULY 24, Evermc..

When will the bickering., the slanderous whisper ings, the written and spoken protests about tho award of prizes, come to an end f The juries are traduced. The owners of gold . and silver medals are set down by tho possessors of bronze as only so many accomplished gentlemen in the art of ear wigging. Indeed, according to the sturdy phalanx of indefatigable grumblers, only the undeserving have been rewarded, and onlythe sorriest trash has won the gold medal. The number who have received rewards however is enormous-21,000; and the names till a thick octavo volume, which has just been issued at the modest price of four francs. In the elaboration of such a list mistakes were in evitable. The general complaint, however, is that something of a graver complexion than mistakes has in a hundred instances been conunitted. It is undeniable that a vast amount of intriguing with the juries went on while they were making their rounds and framing their reports. Unscrupulous , exhibitors whispered in jurymen's ears that their rival was no manufacturer at all, but merely a shopkeeper ; that the invention of which he pre tended to be the originatorwas merely hispurchase ; that the fabric he exhibited as the production of the power-loom was that of the hand-loom ; that Brown, the exhibitor of glass, did not know what were the component materials of metal ; that Jones had no more polished his exhibited walnut-wood than he had polished his manners ; that the jury of Tomkins' class never saw the exhibit of Tomkins. Brown was east into the wrong class. Hopkins, now airing himself jauntily about with his gold medal, had not a single object in his cases, to the positive knowledge of Hobkins, his rival, when the jury made their final round. The Ex hibition building, in short, has become a chamber of torture. The courts and gal leries are thronged with scores of those social pests, men with a grievance. The colonial commissioners have carried theirs over to London, and have cast themselves wailing at the feet of the Lord Presi dent. Their grievance is a strong one. The com munication which the English government thought proper to address to the French government on the subject of the Legion of Honour has had the effect of depriving these gentlemen of their crosses. They an royal commissioners, they are in the employ of the crown, and therefore there is no excuse for their exclusion from the honour which the French government intended to confer upon them. The advisability of excluding British exhibitors gene rally from a foreign order of merit is a debateable question, but that of excluding gentlemen who an in the service of the Queen, and have well fulfilled their duties in con junction with Other foreign commissioners, is inexcusable, since it leaves them in a most invidious position. The impression will be general that they who are unrewarded are unde serving. The refusal of the English government to ,sanction the bestowal of the Legion on deserving British subjects has created, I must repeat, a very bad effect here. The French are laughing at the "free country" in which badges of dignity are so strictly limited to the aristocracy that the most illustrious citizen, if he be not of the privileged class, cannot become a member of any order in his own country, or even accept star or cross from any foreign power that is more liberal towards genies. It is said that the crown cannot prevent an Eng lishman from accepting and wearing a foreign order ; but that which the government does is equal in effect to this power, since foreign govern ments will not bestow honours which the English crown refuses to recognise. This is a more unfor tunate business than at a cursory glance it appears I to be. The discontent is deep in the British sec tion, and among important men, who will carry back to England a grudge they will endeavour to pay sooner or later. Surely this was not the time l in England to set up another class grievance. On the line of the British gas exhibits a flagrant injustice has been done. By far the most remarkable exhibit is that of the London Gas Meter Company. All their models are new, and are most highly finished. The chairman Mr. Croll, is the joint inventor of the diaphragm , meters. This stall has been the admiration of all the gas authorities who have surveyed it. It pre sents to the spectator the details of the mechanism of dry and liquid meters in action. The mode of testing the accuracy of gas meters is shown. The self-pressure r eg ulating apparatus is charmingly ingenious and simple. The motive power meter, which is worked by a spring or weight similar to that used in a clock, is a most valuable improve ment. Its use is to increase the pressure of gas to the consumer when the pressure in the mains of the gas company is insufficient to give good light. In effect, the meter, whilst re • • measurer of quantity, becomes an exhauster. The construc tion of each meter is capable of easy explanation by use of the articles exhibited round about them. Another valuable meter in this exhibit is a skeleton 10-light dry gas meter,every part of which has been put together without solder and by machinery, • result obtained for the first time in the manufac ture of dry gas meters. The accuracy thus obtained enables the Gas Meter Company to dispense with all means that are commonly employed to adjust the valve coven to their seats. With valve plates, and other parts of dry gas meter made by hand, adjustment is necessary to cover the imperfection of hand labour. The liquid meter exhibited by this company was manufactured by special ma chinery to ensure accuracy and uniformity of parts. It is used for measuring the water supply to con sumers for water companies, and generally for measuring liquids. This form of meter is recom mended by compactness and fewness of parts. It will deliver water for use without reduction of pressure, or giving shocks to service pipes. It has no packed services, and few wearing parts to impair its durability. It is the invention of Mr. Walter Payton. The unvarying water-line gas meter, the invention of Messrs. Gilbert Sanders and Richard Donovan, ensures the most accurate registration under all ci rcumstances. It is a simple but perfect compensator for lost water. It is not neoessary to describe Messrs. Croll and Richards's dry gas meter ' • the best proof of its value lies in the fact that it has been in use for twenty-three years. The unvarying water-line gas meter is the novelty of the company!s exhibi tion, and its importance has been greatly enhanced since the legislature pulled the Sales of Gas Act, requiring accuracy in gas meters. Taken as • whole, this is the most interesting gas exhibition in the section. It is remarkable, as I have shown, for its completeness, and it has the further merit that everything has been expressly manufactured Ifor the Exhibition, whereas other firms have been content to re-exhibit their shows of 1862 ; yet, by some unaccountable concurrence of circumstances, this important exhibit has commanded only i bronze medal. Mr. Thomas Glover has obtained a silver medal for his dry gas meters. Protests against the decisions of the juries have takem some striking forms in the French section. A French exhibitor in class 26 has placed a writ ten protest over his exhibit. The protest is firm and pithy :—" I refuse the bronze medal which the jury have awarded me ; and I appeal to the workmen of my trade, the only competent judges." In class 33, another written protest is placarded by an offended exhibitor of tulle and lace :—" I refuse the bronze medal which the jury have awarded me ; and I appeal to my peers." So general and acute is the dissatisfaction with the labours of the juries, that many believe the entire list will undergo a revision, and that an indepen dent body of eminent manufacturers and scientific men will determine, finally, where flagrant acts of injustice have been done, and will recommend the Imperial Commissioners to remedy them. Even the competitors in harmony have fallen out. When the prizes were distri. buted at the Paleis de l'lnduatrie, on Tuesday, on the announcement that M. A. Sax's band had won the first prize, the fact was received with universal hissing. M. - Sax is accused of unfairness and want of delicacy, in not having held himself aloof from the contest. He has already won every possible honour, and should have held himself hors ce.ieoers. All these musical competitions have been unfortunate. We have had bad March weather, deluges of rain, and stormy gusts of wind through out. The rival performances of the fanfares and bands in the Horticultural Gardens were carried on under blinding showers. The competitors were compelled to huddle themselves alternately in the Kiosque in which the ordinary band plays, while the jury took refuge in the little pavilion of the Horticultural Library. I am afranw the reports which will shortly appear under the editor ship of M. Michel Chevalier will not heal the wounds which the juries have inflicted, in the minds of so many exhibitors. No exhibitor's name is to be mentioned in this elaborate work, to which 249 pens are contributing. It is to be a complete judgment on every class and section, and its editor pretends to give the world an impar tial estimate of the progress which has been made of late years in the arts and sciences of the world. How this is to be done without mentioning, for in stance, the foremost inventors and improvers of machines, or processes, or tools, I leave your readers to imagine. The latest interesting arrivals are the bands of Swiss working watchmakers from Lode, Chaux-de- Fond, and Val-Saint-Himyer. These sturdy self reliant fellows deserve to be honoured. They are neither delegates nor the recipients of any em ployer's favour. They have travelled at their OWila expense ; but they have done more than this The object of their journey is to examine all the clock work in the Exhibition exhibited by other nations, and to apply all that is new or valuable to the clockmakmg trade of the canton of Neufchatel. In order to do this well they have clubbed their avail able money together—not so much each but each according to the capacity of his purse. In this way the comparatively rich workman has helped his poor neighbour on his journey. A series of grand experiments are announced to take place at the international laboratory on the Champ de Mars, of the same nature, but on a larger scale than those recently tried at the Eoole Normale. But the public are getting impatient at the repeated postponement of these scientific per formances, es peci ally as a recently decorated pro fessor of the Boole Normale has been installed, and charged with their immediate organisation. The seventh party of visitors sent by the Paris Exhibition Excursion Committee to the French capital left London on Tuesday by the Brighton and the Chatham and Dover routes. There were in all about 130 excur sionists, including more than 30 members of the Ber mondsey Working Men's Institute and some 20 members of other mechanics' institutions slid teachers in misses schools. The sumer of these artisan tripe Is now assured; and there would be no difficulty, were there available beds at the lodgments' erected by the Imperial Commission at the committee's dlaposal, in, at the least, doubling the numbers sent over week by week. AMERICA. (In Utile& =Firms.) NEW YORK, Jui.v 13, Moan:sc. The Senate has passed a supplemental Reconstruction Bill substantially the same as that adopted in the House of Representatives, with additional clauses ratifying the past action of the district military commanders, empower ing General Grant to remove the Southern civil officials, declaring no person entitled to registration as a voter by reason el the Presidential pardon and also declaring all civil officials who participated in the rebellion to be dis franchised. The House of Representatives passed this bill, with an amendment deposing all the Southern civil officers, and autbedging the militsz commanders to appoint their suc cessors. The Senate, not concurring in this amendment, the bill went to a conference committee. The House of Represen tatives has resolved that the period of its adjournment shall be until the 13th November.

PItoTISTANT 3riltitTlNu AT SALISBURY. Nine hundred members of the church of England met at the Assembly•rooms, Salisbury, on Tuesday last, for the per posh of " taking into consideration the present state of the church in this diocese." They were assembled from various pmts of Wilts and Dorset, and consisted nearly all of men—agriculturists, gentry and clergy. No less than 200 churchwardens sent m papers deputing Mr. Du Boulay to express their alarm at the Bishop's doctrine. General Buckley was voted to the chair, and the proceedings were opened with prayer by the Rev. Carr J. Glyn, of Wit. champion. The Rev. Lord Sidney Godolphiue Osborne, who was greeted with vociferous cheering, moved the first resolution :—" That this meeting views with alarm and in dignation the innovations in doctrine and services white have been introduced of late in many of the pariah churches of England." His lordship while expres sing the deepest personal regard for the Bishop of Salisbury, expressed his earnest disapproval of the doctrines put forth in his charge as to the sacerdotal power of the priesthood, and the real pregame in the holy communion. Mr. T. F. Grove, H.P. for Wilts, seconded the motion, and it was carried unanimously. Mr. R. P. Long, M.P., moved " That in the opinion of this meeting ritualism is rentlysing the spirit of union and Mutual confidence which ought to exist between the different ambers of our church." The Rev. Talbot Grams, of Weymouth, seconded the motion combating especially the doctrine pronounced by the b i shop in regard to the Lord's Supper. Lord Ernest Bruce, M.P., supportel the resolution, and it was carried nem. tbs. Mr. J. Du Boulay proposed—" That this meeting concurs with those various churchwardens in many parts of this diocese who have expressed their alarm at the statement in the Bishop of Salisbury's charge." The Rev. E. W. Pears, of Dorchester, emended the mo tion, and argued particularly against the sacerdotal wer attributed by the bishop to the clergy as unseriptural and contrary to the doctrines of the church of England, and he pointed out that the quotations by which his lordship supported the view be had taken from the Bible or Prayer boek were garbled and unfair. The Hon. W. H. B. Port. man, M.P., supported the resolution, and it was carried unanimously. Mr. J. Gundry,. of the Hyde, Bridport, proposed the adoption of a petition to the House of Lords against the doctrines set forth by the bishop in his charge, and be urged the importance of the laity uniting to sup port the clergy in resisting error and preventing the pure doctrine of the church being taken from us. Mr. Hansel, of Longthorte, Bbindford, seconded the proposition. Cap tain T. Benham ' R.N., of Wit:al:erne, supported the mo tion, and it was carried nem. con. Tits Cosvitir BOUPELL.—The paragraph which has been going the round of the papers, that lioupell is at Dartmouth convict infirmary •' in a hopeless state and past recovery," is said to be erroneous, as he still remains at Portland, and, although in delicate health, 11 able to pursue his usual occupation, that of a bookbinder, and appears to be in tolerably good spirits.

The royal supremacy in natters spiritual and ecclesiastical was afterwards altered. The people of Ireland had never received that supremacy, and one half of the ;wimple of this country withdrew from it when they became dissenters cad nonconformist& In matters temporal and civil all were subject to the royal supremacy, but in matters spiritual and ecclesiastical Roman catholic, were no more subject than other dissenters or nonconformists to the royal supre macy. By an act passed in the reign of William and Mary protestant dissenters were relieved from taking the oaths referring to the supremacy of the crown in spiritual matters, and by subseq u ent sets Roman catholic, were similarly relieved. The whole Scotch kirk was founded on what i they called the headship of Christ, and the kirk as w quite us independent of the spiritual power of the erown as esthetics Cr'. To further questions Dr. Manning stated that Roman catholic sees were created in Canada and Australia without any interference with the civil power, and that the same observation appled to British Inußa, where there were twenty Roman catholic bishops. The Chairman—You say that the Eocledastical Titles ' Act is • highly penal mowers? Dr. Manning—lt is. Professing to annul territorial titles, it dues • great deal more. It renders the act of con. secreting a bishop a penal act, so far as all who are parties to it are opeommed. Great isamminimiy is also intredeeed by it es to the validity of many legal documents. Mr. Bruce—Are you able to state any practical evil arising from it ? Dr. Manning—ln aigning documents great ears has to be taken. for legal questions might arise as to their validity. The Chairnuid—ls not the act a dead letter? Dr. Nanning—The Privy Council, with respect to schools, have recoguisail the Roman catholic bishops. The act to all intents and purposes is a dead letter. To the Chairman—The act it • grievance which no resea -1 bet of the committee who may have had a part in the pass ing of it could have intended. It was meant, no doubt, chaffy to relate to territorial jurisdiction, not to spiritual things ; but either way the act is • grievance. A state ment wade in the House of Commons and the House of Lords was founded upon one of mine. I said, and I repeat, that I feel it to be a a grievance to be compelled by a superior obligation to resort to evasion and to violet* • statute. I think I ought not, as an Englishman, to be placed in this position. I hold no other °floe ; I cannot describe myself otherwise than as Arch bishop of Westminster, and I cannot fulfil • spiritual act of duty without coming into contact with the laws. I do not think it honourable, Christian. or English, to be compelled to do a thing in the dark which I would not do openly. I cannot have two modes of describing myself. A superior obligation compels ma to do every day • number of acts at variance with the statute, but which I think it never was intended to prohibit. It is a public stigma—dormant perhaps in times of peace, Let active in times of excitement. The sword ought not to be hung over our beads. It is further inexpedient that when we exhort our flocks to submit to the law of the land. they should say,'as many of them had said, " You do not obey it yourself.' The Attorney-General for Ireland asked whether it would remove the grievance, end satisfy the beads of the Roman catholic eharth, if their bishops were known, for instance, as " Roman Catholic Bishop , of Kerry," or " Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin. ' Dr. Manning replied that they would not object to any modification which parliament, In its wisdom, might make, and be was sure the titles they would legalise would be re spectful and proper. But whetherthe change suggested would be satisfactory was a question he could not answer. There was this objection to it, that it woold imply an admission that as there war • " Roman catholic bishop " or " arch bishop," there was another bishop or archiffshcp of the same diocese, and they held that no consecration was I lawful except by or from their own spiritual authority. So far as description in legal documents was concerned, there could be uo objection to the change suggested. Mr. Fortescue—You would not object to he so described, but you would object so to describe yourself? Dr. Manning said before replying decisively he would like to commit with others. The *lenge suggested would place the Homan catholic hierarchy in a different position trom that which they occupied throughout the world. To Mr. W. K Forster—ln two of the Wart India islands, where the Anglican church is established, the Roman catholic church is governed by vicars apostolic. The establishment of the hierarchy in Scotland has not yet taken place ; it is only • question of time. It is impoesthle to establish epiecoral authority without apportioning to each bishop a territory. The vicars apostolic had their districts, which were virtually sees. Without a territory • bishop would be like a judge without • court or • circuit. To Mr. Peace—ln Ireland, where there may be two bishops, Roman catholic and protestant, in the one diocese, the only inconvenience or confusion which he had heard of arose from the wrong delivery of letters, or legal ques tions as to the leg silty of the signature of the Roman catholic beams ; . Mr. Bentin —You are aware that in Howe sad other places equally intolerant the appointment of a protestant bishop would not be allowed. Dr. Mooning—lt should be Immemhered that in Italy the people are all of one opinion. Mr. Dentine& —What of France and Spain Dr. Manning In Franco then is to le ration—there. think. it would be permitted. The unity of the rehgiuu has never been shattered in Spain. In Austria again there is toleration. Mr. Bentinck —ln portions of Austria there are large protestant communities. The Chairman thanked Dr. Maiming for his attendance, and the committee shortly afterwards adjourned.

The annual concert of the students of this institution took place at the Hanover-square Rooms yes terday afternoon, when the programme consisted of two portions—the first a miscellaneous selec tion, the second devoted to • performance of Handel's music to Dryden's " Ode on St. Cecilia's Day," with a portion of the additional accompaniments composed in 1790 by Mozart. An efficient orchestra and a good, although rather limited, chorus were assembled ; the band including several of the principal instrumentalists of the Royal Italian Opera, who were formerly pupils of the Royal Academy of Music, in addition to present students, M. Sainton being the principal violin. Mr. Otto Ooldschmidt, vice-principal of the Academy, conducted' the performances with the skilled knowledge of an accom plished musician and the calm energy of • practised direc tor. The first part of the concert, which commenced with the overture and introduction to 2doserre ZatibtrAda, the tenor solo by Mr. Kelleher, the three ladies and three genii by Misses Lanham, Ryall, R. Jewell, Willis, Green away, and Cooper, included also vocal solos by Misses Christian, R. Jewell, and Marion Severn, besides various instrumental performances, compris ing the first movement of Professor Bennett's piano forte concerto in F minor, cleverly played by Mr. Townsend ; Mendelssohn's prelude and fugue in E minor (No. 1, of Op. 35), by Miss Beer ; the first movement of • clever manuscript sonata for the piano, very neatly exe cuted by the composer, who rejoices in the auspicious name of William Shakspeare ; Weber's concertino for the clarinet, very well played by Mr. Hallett, a young pupil of the eminent professor, Mr. Lazarus, to whose instruc tion his scholar does great credit ; the andante and rondo of Mozart's concerto for two pianofortes, carefully i played (with Mosebeles' capital cadenza) by Misses Kinkel and Skates ; and an overture for full orchestra by Mr. Alwyn, all among the present students of the Royal Aoadeeiy. The vocal solos in Handel's "Ode on St. Cecilia's day," which formed the second I part of the concert, were sung by Misses B. Jewell, De Chastelaine, and Lanham, and Mr. , Nelleher ; the obbligati instrummital accompaniments with which moat of the airs of this ode are emaciated were excellently rendered by Mr. Svcndsen (flute), Mr. T. Harper (trumpet), Mr. Aylward (violoncello), and Mr. W. Richards (harmonium in lieu of organ). At the termination of the performances the Berl of Wilton made • short address, advocating the merits and importance of the Royal Academy of Music; and testifying to the benefit derived by the institution from the professional skill and active god of the Principal and Vito-Principal, Professor Sterndale I Boman and Mr. Otto Goldschmidt, since their react assumption of those offices. The presentation of prizes by the Countess of Wilton closed the proceedings of the day. Silver medals were awarded to Miss Eleanor tlheppard and Mr. Stephen Kemp, and bronze medals to Mis esL.
