MR. WALPOLE ON THE REMOVAL OP MR.

THE REFORM LEAGUE AND THE BRIGHT BAN iaGET DuBLIN.--At the weekly meeting of the Council of the Reform League, held last evening at the offices, INo. 8, Adelphi-terrace, Mr. Baxter Langley in the chair, Mr. Stubber proposed that a deputation from the league should attend the banquet which is proposed to be given to Mr. Bright at Dublin during the ensuing month. Mr. •, Lane seconded the proposition, and said he should like to I see Mr. Beales accompany Mr. Bright on the occasion. Mr. Mantle expressed his dissent at the proposition, to ' which he would move an amendment. He believed it would be more dignified on the part of the league to await the action of the Irish members in the matter. Mr. Acland coincided in that view, and said it would be obtrusiveness to send a deputation from the league if no invitation had been sent by the liberals of Ireland, especially those who took a prominent part in the getting up of the banquet. riIIOGRISTS and TRAVELLERS, Visitors to the Mr. Conolly said he had little doubt that the Irish members would do their duty in the matter, and he did not at all agree .1- Seaside, and others ex to the scorching rays a the Ile sad heated particles of dust, will find ROWLANDS' with Mr. Acland , inasmuch as the proposed banquet was lALYDOR a mint refreshing preparation for the complexion, intended as an evidence of the desire of the people of Z4lllss the cloud of Unmoor and relaxation, allaying all beat the people of Ireland for reform as well as a demonstra ant immediately affording the pleasing sense- tion of their affection and respect for the champion of the Ibn attend ing restored elasticity and healthful state of the skin. liberal cause.

The revision of the electoral lists for the various parishes and extra-parochial places in the county of Mid dlesex commenced yesterday, the earliest day, save one, which the law prescribes for the work. Contrary to the practice of former revising barristers (the Right Hon. S. K Walpole, at present holding office as Secretary of State for the Home Department, the late Mr. Launcelot Shadwell, and Mr. Edmond Beales) of commencing the revision ►t Uxbridge, the new barrister, Mr. Nathaniel Lindley, re cently appointed to the work by the Lord Chief Justice, as the successor of Mr. Beales, opened the proceedings at Bedfont. The list of last year contain 13,974 names. 'The new claims consist of about 230 names, made in about equal proportions by the political agents on the two sides ; anti the unusually large number of nearly 400 claims by indi vidual parties, those, namely, who act without the inter vention of an agent. The liberals have taken about 2,000 objections. The conservatives have taken none. Our readers may remember that a legislative provision was made in the recent session of parliament that • declaration before • magistrate of a change of residence shall be • valid sub stitute for parol esidence, when a qualification remained unchanged by the Teter having gone to • new residence but in the whole of the county only four electors a v a iled themselves of the privilege. The new barrister took his seat at the head of his first oourt, at the Black Dog. Mr. Charles Harper attended on behalf of Mr. Richard Nicholson, the clerk of the peace for the county, and handed to the barrister the lists which be bad received from the various overseers of the county. The Messrs. Gilbert, of Parliament-street, attended the revision court on behalf of the Middlesex Reform Liberal Registration Society, assisted by . Mr. Dear, so long asso ciated with the registration of the county as the clerk of the late Mr. Albert James. Mr. Thomas Alley Jones attended for the conservatives.

Were they anxious, I ask, for the war news a couple of months ago I "We were, indeed," says he, " though we had not much hope." " Not hope for Italy, when so much had already been done 7" My companion can remember 1848, the fighting of that time, and the bitter disappoint ment which followed. Then in 1859 they hoped again, and something was done, though not enough. Austria still seemed to them a very great power. "But now," said he, "we know that Prussia is still greater, and we shall have our wish, which has been gnawing at our hearts for years—the strangers will go away." My com panion is deeply interested in everything Prussian. His eyes open wide when he hears of the captured Austrian cannon and the crowds of Austrian prisoners seen in Bohemia. To them in Venice the double-headed eagle has been a terrible and lordly bird, and they cannot draw breath freely until it shall have soared away. Why, here is the gondolier whispering again to tell me of another boat-load of furniture. MONMOUTH RACES.—FRIDAY. BEAUFORT BIENNIAL. Whirligig ROCOlllpt use Texana filly Three ran.

Diarrhea• West districts North districts 2 ()entail districts East districts lO Month districts _ Total in London HOSPITAL FOR CONSUMPTION AND DISEASES OP The CIOST.—A quarterly court of governors of this charity was held in the board-room of the hospital on Thursday afternoon, Lieutenant-General the lion. Thos. Ashburn ham in the chair. The minutes of the last two courts ware signed ; and an abstract of the minutes of the subs► quent meetings of the committee of management was read. The secretary then read the report of the committee of management, from which it appeared that owing to the large number of applicants on the list it had been found necesaaey that the full complement of beds (210) should be kept occupied till a later period in the summer than usual ; a temporary and small reduction would be re . quired in order to carry out the cuetomay anted repairs. The out-patients' attendances also continued tge. The committee had still reason to acknowledge ankfully the support given to the charity, by the general public and by the clergy. Ihe following legacies bad been announced :—Miss Ann Bailey, 50W. consols ; Mrs. Sheldon, 1001. consols ; Mr. W. H. Powell, half of residue ; Mr. W. Chafyn Grove, BM. ; Maritory, 50W. duty free ; Mr. B. Churchyard, 100/4 Mrs. Henniker Wilson, 1001. This source of income continued to be on important one, as affording a means of making up the difference between the annual subscriptions and the year's expenses, the amount of the latter being still about double that of the former. A rummer) , of the medical committee's report on the cases of the petientswho returned on the 31stMay,from wintering in Madeira bad been published in the medical and other papers. The committee did not consider that the results of the experiment were sufficiently encouraging to justify them at present in repeating it. A subcommittee had been appointed to investigate and report upon the subject of the proposed alterations in the rules as to the admission of in.patients, referred back to them by the annual court for further consideration and, secondly, to inquire and report whether increased aeon modation for in and out patients could be safely and cos:- venially provided, either by enlarging the present hos pital buildings, or by any other, and what means. A meeting of tne sub-committee h t h eee held, and they were now awaiting the report of architect. The sp. pointssent of dental surgeon, being tenable for three years only, had been declared vacant in accordance with the rules. Mr. Howard Hayward, who bad ably discharged the duties of the office trace its creation in 1803, being eligible fora - election , the committee had had much pleasure in reappointing him. The number of petiente admitted be tween Mayilst andAnguateth (the date of the report) as DM. :recharged, many materially relieved, 175; died, 27: new out-patients' cases, 1,509. The report having been adopted, on th e motion of Mr. W. T homas, seconded b y Mr. T. F. Crew, the Bev. T. W. Franklyn asked several questions both as to the amount of benefit which resulted from treatment at the hospital, and as to its permanent character. These inquiries elicited froni Des Byrnes rnanip son very satisfactory answers. It was then moved by the Bev. T. W. Franklyn, seconded by the Hon E. B. Wrot tesley, and unanimously resolved " That, in pursuance of the reoommendation of the committee of management, the Lord Bishop of Lichfield be elected a vice-president of this charity." A cordial vote of thanks to the chairman (the Hon. Gen. Ashbuntham), moved by Mr. W. Thomas, and seconded by Mr. IL E. Pelle:v. closed the proceedings. ALARMING RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR LEICESTER. —An accident of an alarming character occurred on the Midland Railway at Syaton on Thursday night last which fortunately however did not result in loss of life, though several persons were bruised and °the' arias injured. It appears from what we are able to ascertain, that the goods train from Leicester was being shunted for some purpose when the e ngine got off the line. A telegram was immediately despatched to Leicester for amistance, and Mr. Romee, with a party of labourers and the breakdown van starte d at once for the scene of the catastrophe. In the interval between the goods engine getting off the line and the arrival of the men from Leicester, two other trains bad along, so that the station line was blocked up for =l: i nuts on this aide the Syston station. The breakdown men, nevertheless, went forward with their pieba and levers to endeavour to get the goods engine on tho line, and bad nearly succeeded when the mail train, leav ing Leicester at 11 . 29, came up sad ran into the break down van. It appeared that the driver of the mail train had received instructions at Leicester atation to proceed with caution, and he went all right until within about 1,000 yards of the rear of the break-down van. He bad then passed two fog signals which it is supposed he thought referred to the accident which was some dirtance ahead of him, and, on perceiving • hand signal immediately in front of him, he then at once slackened his speed, bat it was too late ; the rain, which had fallen during the night had made the rails slippery so that he could not puR up so quickly as he otherwise chunk have dose, and the consequence was that the train ran into the break-down waggon, which was completely smashed up, as were also two oosl waggons belonging to the train directly in front. The driver and Artisan of the mail train courageously stuck to their poets to the last, and miraculously escaped with a few bruises and other alight injuries by leaping o ff when to remain would in all probability have been attended with serious if not fatal consequences. Their engine was turned over into a geld by the side of the line, though singular to re late did not become detached from the tender, nor was the tender broken from the other portion of the train. There were a goodly number of passengers by the mail train wbo were mere or lees bruised and shaken, bet nee* sustained injuries sufficient to prevent their continuing their Journey. Amon the passengers was Mr. Turner, of the rasters °aunties Railway Company. The were takes on to Syston, and the up line was =sle u about 20 minutes, in time for the mail train from the North to pass at-I o'clock. A pilot engine was forwarded from Lasater to /spelt beta the mail train, which then pro needed along the up line to Syaton, where the pitasengern were picked up, and went forward on their ,journey about 3 o'clock, being three and half hours behind time. The down line was not cleared till half-past seven yesterday raorning.
