He would apply that description to those who had worked with Mr. Cobden, Mr. Villiers, Mr. Glad stone, Mr. Morley, and ask them to drink " The Health of the Precursors." (Cheers.) Mr. B.

Great preparations are being made at Guildhall by the corporation of London for the entertainment of the Sultan on the approaching visit of his highness to this country. Though the day is not exactly fi xed, it will pro bably be Thursday, the ltith of July. The entertainment will take plies in the Guildhall, and will be in the nature of an evening reception. There will be a grand concert sod ball on the occasion, with a supper, and an address of congratulation will be presented by the corporation to the illustrious visitor in a casket of gold. A committee of I the Court of Common Council, with an unlimited vote of money, has been specially appointed to make the requi site arrangements and to conduct the entertainment. About 3,000 guests are to be invited, including the Prince of Wales and other members of the royal family, the whole of her Majesty's ministers and great °theme •f Mate, peers, members of parliament, and foreign ambassadors, among other persons of distinction. • stately reception saloon 100 feet long by 60 feet wide, sad consisting of two floors, is being erected in the open sparse in front of Guildhall, and the hall itself I. being adapted and decorated in other respects for the occasion. The upper floor of the saloon will be used for supper, and will accommodate about 600 of the gusts at one time. Be tween 300 and 400 more will be so accommodated at once in other parts of the ball and the adjacent offload, and about 60 of the more distinguished personages will be entertained at a banquet in the Council-chamber, which is being expressly fitted ap far the purpose. The d neor of the temparery scenes la bent et after having served the purposs of a reception saloon, will be made available for dancing later in the evening, as will also the great hall itself. A dais, 50 feet wide by 36 feet deep, is being erected in the interior of the ball, at its eastern end, and upon that will be placed a throne with three meats —oue for the Sultan, another for the Prince o Wales, and the third for the Viceroy of Egypt—the back and sides of the dais being hung with crimson velvet, decorated with gold and with crescents and stars. The open space between the Alder men's-chamber and that of the Common Council will be converted into an Italian garden, ornamented with foun tains, statues, and rare flowering plants, and a fine apart ment recently constructed as • committee room for the Court of Aldermen will be appropriated to the use of the Sultan. Other parts of the building and the various lobbies and corridors will be beautified by choice flowers, statuettes, and fountains. Altogether the occasion promises to be one of unusual interest and magnificence. M. -r ins Star .

As in the Roman catholic church militant there are three main orders—those of bishop, priest, and deacon—so in the church triumphant are the orders threefold—those of sancti, beati, and venerabili- Ask a protestant what is meant by the term " sanctus" or saint, and ho is at once ready with an answer, but go on to inquire the meaning of a " blessed" or a " venerable," and most persons would, I suppose, confess themselves at fault. But for the undying celebrityof "the Venerable Bede," the term "venerable,"used in a special sense, would probably have dropped - idtogeemr burorpolfflle use, and as it is, most persona, who speak of that divine as " Venerable," apply the term to Bede ari they might to any other devout and learned old gentleman, without being aware that his title of " Venerable " was conferred upon him by the Roman Pontiff in solemn conclave.

The official Bertinake Ti4kwir of to-day publishes an article expressing greatdissatisfaction at certain attacks made by the semi-official North German Gazette upon the highest tribunal of justice in Denmark—" a tribunal, whose impartiality," says the official journal, " has ever been the pride of the Danish people, and whose decisions are above any suspicion of unfairness." It is stated that the last Prussian note respecting North Schleswig has not yet been answered. In to-day's sitting of the Folksthing, an address to the King on the subject of the Danish districts of North Schleswig was moved by 30 members of the house. This address describes the execution of the paragraphs of the treaty of Prague, relating to Schleswig, as indispensable to the welfare of Denmark, and characterizes Prussia's conduct in this matter as being in contradiction with her formal promises. It also expresses the grief of the Danish people at the sufferings of their Schleswig brethren, but yet indulges in the hope that at last satisfaction will be inade by a solution of the question, based, as de sired by the inhabitants themselves, upon a separation of the German from the Danish popu lation. In conclusion it hopes that between the neighbouring countries, Prussia and Denmark, there will thus spring up a lasting friendship, as the'result of an arrangement which leaves behind no germ for future dissension. The draft of an address of similar purport was brought forward in to-day's sitting of the Landsthing. PORTUGAL. LISBON, JULY 3.

Tat: BELGIAN Rscsrrzoir.—A meeting of the executive of the Belgian Reception Committee took /lace yesterday at the Belgian Reception Committee offices, St. Martin's-place, Trafalgar-square, arising out of the circum stance that the number who have inscribed their names to visit London on the occasion of the meeting of the Na tional Rifle Association amounts to 2,1110, or more than double the number anticipated. Colonel Loyd Lindsay presided, and the Duke of Manchester, the Duke of Graf ton, Lord Loadeshorough, General Lord F. Paulet, Mr. Graves, M.P.,Colonel the Hon. C. H. Lindsay, Sir R. Phil lips (late Lord Mayor), Colonel Gregory, Colonel Thomp son, and most of the member, were present. The great point of difficulty which presented itself was the means of making arrangements for the proper accommodation of so large a number of visitors, but Lieutenant Furley, who was the hon. secretary of the English volunteers in Belgtum;and who has been appointed •• conanimioner" attached to the Belgian headquarters, announced that he has already in prospect accommodation for 1.500, and that by issue of an advertisementpribly the additional accommodation could be provided. It warn announced from Miss Burdett Coutta, notwithstanding the enormous inereue, that that lady would be prepared to enter•ain the whole. With regard to the entertainment at Guildhall, as there a.-e no means of expansion, it is doubtful whether more than 1,000 can be entertained, and it is suggested that there should be lots drawn, and those who partake of the City entertainment should divide the honours with those who go to Windsor. The headquarters of the Belgian Guard Civic will be at the Grosvenor Hotel, whilst those of the Count d'Arschot's volunteers will he at the Westminster Palace Hotel. With regard to the ball, to take place on Thursday, the 18th instant, and the concert, on Friday, the 19th, at the Agricultural Hall, the committee consists of the whole of the noblemen and gentlemen constituting the executive committee. THE NATIVE PRESS IN INDIA.—It has now be come a fashion to say that the educated Bengalee btu' become " audacious," and that the Ifindtwi Patriot is his chosen organ. Surely it cannot be a fault if we endeavour to express faithfully the sentiments and feelings of our countrymen, whether educated or uneducated, orthodox or heterodox. We cannot indeed understand why our Anglo-Indian contemporaries should deprecate hone 4 dis cussion of public questions in the native papers. If they will take • dispassionate view of the relations of things in British India, they will at once perceive that the native press occupies the same position here which her Majesty's opposition does in the British House of Commons, barring of course the partisan feeling which sometimes animates the latter. It is the natives who are chiefly if not solely affected by the laws and regulations passed by the Indian legislature, by the abuses and defects of administration, by the freaks and caprices of men in power, and by the thousand and one causes in operation connected with the political govern ment of the country. The Europeans, by virtue of their position as members of the ruling race, enjoy certain pri vileges and immunities, though not legalized, which no native however exalted his rank or however large his wealth can command. We do not mention this from a feeling of hostility or jealousy, but state it as a fact.— Hindoo Patriot May 13. At the weekly meeting of the executive of the Reform League, held last evening in Adelphi-terrace, Mr. C. Cooper in the chair, the following resolution, in refer ence to the reply of Sir John Pakington to the deputation which waited on him on Monday as to the removal of Knightsbridge Barracks, was proposed Mr. Le Lubes, seconded by Mr. C. Bubb, and carried, " Th at this council sees with surprise and indignation the statement of the Secretary for War ' that there should be barracks bandy' to intimidate the people and prevent them from meeting in • legal and constitutional manner; and this council strongly protests against the idea that soldiers are kept to oppress their own countrymen, and interfere with the free expression of public opinion." Sournawrrox, JULY 3.—The North German Lloyd's steamer America, from New York on the 22nd June, has arrived off Cowes, eo route for Bremen, with Id paasengere far this port and Havre. She brings no mails or specie. England will seek again the ancient fold —A sainted island, as in days of old, be really so near fulfilment, out of compliment to our nationality, Pio IX. may yet do an act of tardy juatice to Bede, who has been left standing for upwards of a thousand years on the lowest step of the heavenly ladder, and make a saint out of our venerable countryman. Whereas in the church militant, in the ordinary course of events, a priest may rise to be a bishop within a period varying from a quarter to half a century, in the church triumphant the passage from the state of blessedness to that of sanctity in most cases occupies a period of two entire cen turies. Of the 25 beati who are to be gazetted as sancti on Saturday next, the first on the list, Beatus Josaphatus, the Polish Bishop of Plosk, who suffered martyrdom at the hands of the schis matics at Witepsk in the seventeenth century, was beatified by the Pope, Urban VIII., in the year A. D. 1643. The second on the list, Pietro di Arbues, first inquisitor of the kingdom of Aragon, who was assassinated in the 15th century while assisting at a religious office in the cathedral of Saragossa, of which he was canon, was beatified by the Pope, Alexander VII., in the year 1664. The 19 martyrs of Gorkum, described officially, with most convenient brevity, but with little regard for the other 18, as " Nicolaus Petrius, ejusque socii," who suffered death by hanging at Brille, in Hol land, by order of William de la Mark, the associate of William the Silent (whom Mr. Motley has taught us to regard as leas of a villain than he is conai deredat Rome) were beatified by Clement X. in the year 1675. The blessed Leonard of Port St. Maurice (on the Corniche road between Nice and Savona, who was the originator of the brotherhood " Degli Anuinti di Gesu e Maria al Calvar,o," and who established the chapels " del Cammino della Croce," within the arena of the Colosseum, was beatified by Pius VI. in the year 1765. The three last on the list—i.e., the blessed Paolo della Croce (the founder of the order of Passionists), and the two blessed virgins, Maria Francesca, who shared with St. Francis of Assissi the marks of the stigmata, and Germans Consinia, a poor shep herdess of Languedoc, whose death, in 1601, was hastened by cruelties inflicted by her stepmother as punishment for neglecting her business in order to pray to the Madonna—will enjoy the rare dis tinction of receiving the honours of beatification and sanctification at the hands of the same, that is, of the reigning Pontiff. The first saint whose name occurs in ecclesiastical history as having been solemnly canonized is St. Uldaric, sainted by John XV., ♦, D. 993. The first English saint on the official list is King Edward ; the last, St. Edmond. In the case of very holy men indeed, such as St. Francis of Asaiasi, and St. Antony, the like of whom do not live now.a-days, the Pontiff was wont to confer the degree of sanctus upon them by accumula. tion, almost immediately after death. Al the condition of being admitted to sanctifi cation by the Roman church, martyrdom, or the working of miracles during life, or by the mortal remains after death, is, I believe, indispensable. The privilege of the sanctus consists in being entitled to the adoration of the universal church, whereas the beattia is only adored by his own order, and the vent-rani/is, merely generally vene rated in the memory of the faithful. Considerable consistency has within the last few days been given to the prevalent rumour of the probable proclamation of the new dogma of the personal infallibility of the Pope, speaking ce cathedra, by a very remarkable article which ap peared in the last number of the Cirilta Cattolica, proposing that the faithful, besides giving their money and their lives, should be prepared to yield up unconditionally the further tribute of their in telligence. THE TAILORS' STRIILE.—A numerously attended meeting of the journeymen talon of Brighton was held yesterday at the club-house, to receive • proposal from Mr. J. Smith, one of the largest masters in the town, relative to the present strike. Mr. Lawrence, the secretary of the London Association, who bad been telegraphed to attend the meeting, was present. The chairman said the meeting had been called to consider a proposal made to the com mittee by Mr. J. Smith, whose men were on strike. Mr. Smith was willing to give a guarantee that, providing his men resumed work, he would undertake no London or Brighton strike work, and also that as soon as a log was mutually arranged between the employers and the men be would immediately pay to that log. Some discussion having taken place on the propose], and Mr. Lawrence having addressed the meeting, a resolution was agreed to as follows :—" That Mr. Smith's men resume work on that gentleman giving the committee a written guarantee to the effect proposed by him ; and that the workmen of any other employer now on strike also resume work at coos on his giving the same guarantee as Mr. Smith." A feeling pervaded the meeting that the above proposal of Mr. Smith would be followed by a large number of the masters, both in London and Brighton, and with that view, and with the object of bringing the disputa to a close, the latter clause of the above resolution wee adopted, that the committee might act upon it without calling the men together. The new dog tax is to be enforced without further notice. It is now an excise duty and not an assessed tax, and, therefore, application is to be made for a 'licence, and there is no exemption, as hitherto, until a demand was made. The penalty is M. After the toast of " The Queen," Earl RUBSHLL said—l have now to propose • toast which will be drunk in solemn silence—and that is " The memory of the late Richard Cobden." (Cheers.) The question may be naked, why are we met hers to-day to give praise to the name of Cobden ? In reply to that I would ask is there any one gentleman who doubts his great reputation, or who is disposed to dispute his eminent services, or who would not cordially respond to any praise that might be given to him ? I would say that it is not for the purpose of adding anything to the wreath of glory which surrounds the name of Cobden that I am here to propose that you should drink to his memory ; it is rather for our own benefit, to strengthen our own feelings, to animate our own future endeavours, that this club is laid tuted, and that his memory is continually repeated with the homage which is due to it. (Cheers.) For, gentlemen, it cannot be said that these aro times in which it is unuseful to bring before the eyes of the public and of the country the career of • man who undoubtedly, if he had so chosen—with his knowledge, early acquired, of the processes of manufacture, and the ways of business— might have acquired • liege, and probably an enormous fortune—(hear, hear)—but who, instead of that, gave up all the exertions of his mind, at the sacrifice of his health, and at the sacrifice of his time and comfort, to the wel fare of his country. (Cheers.) I say these are times when such an example should not be passed over in silence and in neglect. (Cheers.) The facts are hardly necessary to be recapitulated, and I shall not certainly go into them in detail. You know perfectly well that Cobden' set out on • mission in order to permed, the I country to adopt • change in the corn laws, which in his opinion at that time was likely to be attended with im mense benefit to his country, with immense benefit to the' district with which he was immediately connected, and likewise with immense benefit to all the countries of Europe and to the whole world. (Cheers.) His exertions in this' respect were not then appreciated. There were many tai the highest positions, and there were many in the lowest positions, who did not value those efforts, and who thought that they must end in failure—(hear, hear)—but Mr. Cobden had that within hint which is in ill men who would make great names which end in suocess—he had a per suasion that he was working for the public benefit, and that what he proclaimed was the truth, and that the truth must finally prevail. (Cheers.) He succeeded after • number of years, and it may be said, How was it that it should have been necessary to struggle for seven years in order to pioduce • result which had been, shown by the philosophic reasonings of Adam Smith seven' years before to be consonant to the interests of mankind, to be deducible almost by mathematical reasoning, and to be proved by all which was required by econsmical science? Hardly so much time would have been neces sary had the reasonings of Adam Smith been fully valued. Hardly so much of Mr. Colelen's efforts would have been required, had there not been very strong interest on the other aide. I am persuaded myself, if, when Newton's discoveries had been given to the world, there had been interests in favour of cycles and epicycles, neither case would have wanted its supporters, if their personal interest had been at stake. (Ileer t hear.) Cobden had • most remarkable power of persuasive eloquence, without any metaphors, but direct and forcible. He had • per suas've eloquence, which showed that that which be was urging was in the interest of England, and that it was the interest which ought to be pursued generally. When the time came, the ministry of that day in possession of ment power, most justly and most fairly gave to Ca n n . all the honour of the success of those measures—(cheep) —and if those measures ere likely to prosper now and hereafter, it is to Cobden that the real glory is due. (Cheers.) And now we must not forget the efforts which have been made by my right hoe. friend Mr. Villiers. (Cheers.) His speeches were marked by great ability, and his reasoning was eminently able, as was sure to be the case with a man of his reasoning powers ; but that would not.have been sufficient unless Cobden and his coadjutors had made such an impression on the country that that impression told upon the House of Commons and carried that house effectually with them. (Cheers.) I have spoken to you of ene great effort of Mr. Colxlen's,and !have reminded you of the power which his simple mode of expression, his unaffected manner and address, his clear demonstrations, made upon those who beard him. But he was afterwards to exercise those talents in a different manner and before • very different audience, but with similar success. The Emperor of the French, greatly to his honour, in spite of the prejudices of nations attached greatly to the system of protection (and nowhere more than in France), worked with Mr. Cobden in the production of the French treaty. (Cheers.) I had then the honour of being Minister of Foreign Affairs, and in spite of all these prejudices the Emperor of the French persisted and proposed to the British government the Treaty of Com merce, saying that if England would agree to the treaty, he would be able, with the power of his prerogative, to carry that treaty, and establish with it the useful relations that would* naturally arise. The cabi net of Lord Palmerston at once agreed to the proposal, and be (Lord Russell) asked Mr. Cobden to undertake the difficult and at the sante time important mission. Cobden was himself persuaded that there was no task be could undertake which would be more for the benefit of his own country, of Europe, and even the world, than such a treaty between the two countries. He went to Frame with instructions which were chiefly drawn up by Mr. Gladstone, then Chancellor of the Exchequer. (Cheers.) Mr. Cobden and Mr. Gladstone together bad the whole negotiations in their hands. I never pretended to interfere in it. I confided absolutely in their judgment and discretion, and the result was that Cobden was as powerful, and had as much influence in the chambers of the French Minister of Foreign Affsirs as he had in any meeting at Manchester or Leeds. (Cheers.) The calmness and simplicity with which he showed that the proposals he made were for the interests of both countries, addressed as they were to the en lightened men who were the great masters of political economy in Frame, brought she affair to a triumphant success. (Cheers.) And what hes been the result of thorn efforts of Mr. Cobden ? They are not confined to the mere immediate consequences of the repeal of the corn laws, or the treaty of commerce with France. Cob den at s later time wrote a pamphlet with respect to the war of 1793, showing how unnecessary the war was, and bow evil were its consequences ; but as it happens that the evil consequence, of wars branch out in many directions, and affect not only the soldier in the field, but destroy com merce, put an end to all amicable relations, and produce ;sever and misery, so, on the other hand, it happens that from such acts as those I have mentioned, there flow innumerable benefits, resulting in the good relations of entire nations, the friendly intercourse of those who before looked upon each other with hostile feelings, the increase of stmlth, the prosperity of manufacturers, the happy and peaceful passage of ships across the ocean, cart yutg necessities and luxuries of which people would otherwise be deprived. (Cheers.) What would be the result from all these if Cobden had achieved such great works in the very earliest times of legendary date? Why, he would have been treated as a hero and • demi-god, and temples would have been put up to hie honour ; if be had lived in the middle am, and had appealed to those who were the robber, and destroyers of all civilisation, and taught them to address God in the language of prayer and of love to one another, he would then have been a saint, and we should have temples to him as we have temples in these times to those who often make fertile the desert, and appear objects of prayer to present generations. In the present time, what can we do? We have this to say, that there is now at least a fame which the clear spirit doth raise more pervading than in any former ages . . Th e press is that powerful instru ment which mime, over distant lands, to the remotest parts of America, to the most distant regions of India the amounts of that which has been done, and felt, and thought in these European nations. That extended fame will belong to the name of Cobden, not in the ephemeral popularity of • few years, but for all ages, and among countless millions of men. (Lend cheers., The toast was then drunk in oilmen._ The Duke of A aGTLL C;P;;;I;Th Health.of L au the Fellow•workers with Mr . in the Free-trade move. Lord Hoyouri et, in proposing " The Progress of Liberal Opinions in our Universities, ' said Mr. Cobden's educa tion was not without its influence upon his career—lt was the education of the self-made Englishman. Ile made himself what he was t. hrocigh the divers elrewastaness of an ordinary life, leaving be mankind an example that men, without special conditions of society, might, if they had the same virtues and talents, follow him in. Of late years there had been a fair general progress of opinions in the universities, and now it might be sahl the tide of free thought was flowing rapidly in. Bat as youth was imitative, and English youth above all docile, much depended upon our university teachers. As • Cambridge man, he knew of no names in his university to equal in the career of free thought and liberal intelli gence the names of Arthur Stanley and Piedessor Ooldwin Smith. (Loud cheers.) The latter gentleman was the man to lead English youth—the men who feared no cen sure, the man who himself had gone through the toils of , labour, and who bad therefore acquired the right to teach 'others what was the result of his past convictions and the inductions of his widest: hilosophy. (Cheers.) Mr. GOLDWIN SMITH said, as a student still, he accepted this toast in the name of Oxford and Cambridge men, as • proof that after all the Blanchester school was not indiffe rent to the universities and to the value of academical cul ture. The noble chairman, in addition to other things which he had done for education and learning, had given I an excellent measure of university reform. Mr. Glad ,' stone was not only the representative but almost the sym bol of the union of high academic culture with prac tical statesmanship—(cheen)—Mr. Gladstone, the pride of Oxford and her shame—the pride of the true. and the shame of the unreal Oxford. (Loud cheers.) The old Oxford students he believed were still true to Mr. Gladstone. He was turned out of his seat because he was supposed to be favourable to an extension of the suffrage ; and if they did not call this organised hypocrisy, it was partly because it was a strong term, and partly and princi pally because in former times the term was applied by un veracious lips to honourable men. (Loud chuers.) We were told that Mr. Gladstone was no tactician, and as an Oxford man be (Mr. Smith) should be very sorry if Oxford produced tacticians in the sense of the word with which we were of late much too fainilar ; and after all, although Mr. Gladstone might be no tactician, and although Oxford would to a certain extent bear the blame of having pro duced by her culture a statesman who was wanting in the qualities of a tactician-(laughter)---did we not even in the past session owe Mr. Gladstone gratitude considering the greatdisadvantages under which he lay sea thoroughly honest and sinews man—(loud cheers)—and considering that he had borne, on the whole, with wonderful self-control, that which it was hardest for a proud spirit to bear, namely, the desertion of friends! (Cheers.) Is spite of this, and with the insulting and vulgar triumph of the foe, he had remained steadfast at the head of as many liberals as be could hold together. had caved us front great calamities, and had given us • tolerable instead of an intolerable measure of reform. (Cheers.) He hoped liberal opinions were advancing in the universities, at least in that with which he had recently the honour of being connected, and by that he meant liberalism in the best form, and not in the form of devotion to the liberal party, or to any party, but to an increasing openness of mind, to increasing freedom from superstition, to a manlier love of truth, and to • hearty sympathy with the people. This growth of liberalism was spontaneous ; there had been no tricks on the liberal aide, but there bad been on the Tory side. There bad been clubs got up and presided over, most improperly and un generously he thought, by tory heads and professors, to draw youth before its hour into slavery to political opinions. (Cheers.) The liberal cause in Oxford had not been sullied by anything of that kind ; they had never tampered with the independence of youth. He could fairly say for his own part he would rather, in the interests of the liberal MUM, that a pupil of his were a tory of his own making than a liberal of his (Mr. Smith's). Although liberal co'fil;i:fnorwdasttevlnweiasngstiiillt so he m b: t a i t iing min to da b o a f th e University done; the tory yoke still pressed heavily upon them, as the rejection of Mr. Gladstone proved. He therefore earnestly besought members of parliament to use their powerful influence in obtaining uniformity reform, and in impro /ins the edu cation of the rich as well as poor. (Loud cheere.) Mr. BAXTER, M.P., proposed " The The Chairman's Health." Earl RUSSELL, in reply, said—ln thanking you for this compliment, I will say just a word as to the past and the future. References have been made to our past works. Now, with regard to the past, having taken part in a reform bill with Lord Grey, Lord Al , borp, and Lord Brougham, all I can say is, our vital points were vital, our securities were really securities, and our opinions 1 were not elastic. (Loud cheers.) With regard to the future, you will look no doubt to such men as Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright to promote the great cause of liberal progress, which is no doubt to have its fulfilment in the future. It appears to me that the first thing to be attended to is the great cause of education, because however fit idiom to whom the House of Commons proposed to give votes may be they will not be so fit as they would be if they received such an education as the people of Scotland or the people of the New England States in America. The first thing then for a reformed parliament to do, throwing aside the prejudices which I am sorry to asy the church still clings to, is to provide all men, whatever communion or sect they may belong to, with a good secular education. (Cheers.) Another thing is to see that any grievances which ow fellow subjects in Ireland suffer should be heard and remedied; and we should not allow any religious opinions of our own, however just they may be, to prevent us from doing full justice to those whc are subjects with us under the same Queen, laws, and institutions. (Loud cheers.) The company then separated, and a portion were con veyed to town by special train after midnight.

TIIx HaviEw IN HYDE-Palm. —Yesterday the finishing of the galleries and the various arrangements for the review in the park were being pushed on with vest vigour, and additional beads have been employed, so that the entire accommodation so be provided !hall be finished by to-night. The interior of the royal stand was yester day covered with red cloth and appropriately fitted tap ; and to-day the trout of it will be covered with stone coloured drapery. The stands on either aide of that for the royal family (vie., the Lords and Conimons), have been covered with red calico. In each stand there are eight rows of seats. In the stands for the general public at each end of the row standing room only has been provided. A separate box has been arranged for the press neer the royal box. The saluting point will be immediately opposite the royal stand and on each aide in the entire length, a spau of about 25 feet will be railed off for the officers of the various bunches of the service, who will be admitted, providing they are in uniform, without tickets. Railings were yeatenlay being placed round the park to mark the space in which the re view will be held, and to keep the spectators from the ground. It is understood that her Majesty will not leave her carriage during the review, but will ride down the ranks in it, and afterwards ride to the saluting point, where she will witness the movements. The Royal box will therefore be used by the mem& re of the Royal Family and the Court.

They are not on any account to pass between the columns, nor to occupy any part of the man-of.war channel between Spithead and St. Helens dining the evolutions. Steamers are to keep to leeward of the columns or ships in order of sailing, RI the smoke might prevent signals being quickly noticed, thereby causing accidents ; and vessels are not to pass to windward of the royal yacht, if it 11111 possibly be avoided. As the evolutions of a large number of ships of war require a considerable space, masters of vessels will see the necessity of steering accordingly, and nut close in so as to interrupt the evolutions. The ships of war to be inspected on the 17th July will burn Welsh coal, in order that the view of the evolutions may not he obstructed by smoke, and to obviate the chances of collision. Captains and mutters of stein. vessels intending to he present on this occasion are requested to adopt the same or any other necessity precautions, to avoid inconvenience from smoke; and they arc thereby warned that any vessel causing such inconvcuienre will be liable to be removed to a distance.

Eve moved, Mr. H. Bond seconded —" That it would he prefer. able to confine the foreign stock to a market at the water. side, and remove all restrictions from English stock, rather than they should manna° to affect English and foreign stock alike;" Mr. Ire* moved, Mr. G. Tingey seconded— " That itis of the utmost importance, both to the public and the trade, that the Metropolitan Cattle-market should be free and open as formerly to the home trade only, sod I .0 restore the cattle traffic to its natural channels and reduce meat to its fair value again in all ;daces." The New Law Rzroars.—Tho Council of Law Reporting have just published their first report, stating Piet their proceedings have been attended with success greatly beyond what was anticipated at the outset. Thu subscribers for the year 1866 exceeded 1,000 in number ; and the ready adhesion of so many memhen of the pro fession dispersed throughout the United Kingdom, Lelia, the Colonies, and even the United States of America, Is accepted as evidence that the system of reporting propcoed by the bar scheme was adapted to supply a real want of the profession and the public, and that the arrangements of the council have been on the whole satisfactory.
