BOMBAY, .TAN. 17. T y . • k LONDON, WEDNESDAY ITALY. (nom cum mu FLORESCS, JAN. 18. Last Sunday morning the recently married couple, his Royal Highness the Duke and the Duchess of Aosta, arrived in Florence, attended by a numerous suite. The same evening they were present at the opera of the Pergola, where they were enthusiastically received by all the aristo cracy and fashion of the capital. On Monday they received the felicitations of the ministers of the crown and of the municipality. On Tuesday, at 2 o'clock, the ministers, secretaries, and attach& of the foreign embassies presented their felicitations ; at4o'clock of the same day all the ladiesof the corps diplomatique were received by the youthful couple. On Thursday morning they visited some of the chief monuments of the city, and, amongst other studios, that of Duprd, where they had an opportu nity of admiring his statue of Count Cavour, in tended for the city of Turin ; the same evening they honoured by their presence a splendid ball, got up with great speed, but in the most perfect order and good taste, by his Excellency Rustem Bey, the Turkish minister, and then, after their six days' stay, they left yesterday afternoon for Naples. The Crown Prince Humbert, who had also come to Florence, and remained during their stay, left a t I the same time for Milan. I will not reproduce from the journal which I ldiacharges in Florence the social functions of the Morning Post the detailed record of the silks, and laces, and velvets, the diamonds and the pearls, which Lady Paget and the Countess d'Usedom, the Countess Kimeleff, or the Baroness Bills Brake, I wore in honour of this young Princess of Cisterns, I now a member of the royal house of Italy. But I cannot pass over in equal silence the social event of the week—the ball at the Turkish embassy. When one recollects that it was for the purpose of promoting the dismemberment of the Turkish empire, for no special advantage of this Prince Amadeo, Duke of Aosta, that the Garibaldian movement of 1882 was originally set a-foot, it is certainly rather curious that the only representa tive of a foreign power, who has just given elite in honour of the Prince's marriage, should be his Excellency Rustem Bey, the Turkish minister, and he did it in right good style. Nothing could exceed the taste with which, at a very short notice —indeed the ball might almost have been said to have been improvised—everything was got up. Of course the " observed of all observers " was the young Duchess of Aorta, who has a singularly intellectual countenance, which is not belied by her conversation, which, I was assured by several persons who have had the honour of conversing with her since her arrival in Florence, is replete with judgment, tact, and infor mation. The royal guests took their departure about three o'clock in the morning, but a great part of the general company remained until almost day break. The fete given by the Turkish minister was perhaps the more enjoyed in consequence of rumours most distressing to young ladies who are coining, or have but recently come out—that there will not be many balls given this season. How ever, the comae of charity does not want its. customary tried supporters ; a committee, presided over by the Prince and Princess Poniatowsky, being actively engaged in getting up a concert, a ball, and an amateur dramatic entertainment, of which the proceeds are to be applied in aid of the three most practical and popular Florentine charities—the infant schools, the seaside hospital for the convalescent poor, and the funds of the city workhouse. The Chamber of Deputies has found it necessary to suspend its labours on the law of the goldsmiths' mark, in consequence of one of those sudden turns I of parliamentary fortune which will happen in the I best regulated assemblies. After accepting the I law en blur, it was induced—owing to a most effec• tive speech of the Commendatore Corsi—to vote an amendment by which the effect of the law will become precisely the reverse of that in tended by its framers and supporters, and, instead of the obligatory mark required in the rest of Italy being extended to Tuscany, the Tuscan right of having the mark optional will be extended to the rest of Italy. This will, of course, render necessary a recasting of the whole law, and for that purpose the government, the committee of the chamber, and the leading members who have taken part in the debate, will hold private conferences before proceeding any further. To-day and yesterday the chamber has been engaged in voting the several items of taxation in the budget for 1868, which as yet have been granted only provisionally, and which—if the Left had yesterday carried the house with it—would be still remaining in a provisional condition. An attempt to adjourn the discussion until Count Digny had made his general financial statement didnot prove successful—though on general grounds it seemed by no means illogical that the expected review of the entire financial position, and its bearings on the national policy, should precede the voting on this or that individual item. REPRESENTATION OF THE lINIVIRSITY Or CAN BIUDGIL—A good deal of excitement prevails, it is said, amongst the members of the University of Cambridge in consequence of a rumour which prevails that there is • probability of as immediate election of a representative in parliament by the retirement of Sir C. J. Selwyn, wko is thought to be likely to obtain a seat on the judicial bench. The friends of Ur. A. J. Bamford Hope, of Trinity College, have already commenced an active canvass on his behalf, and Mr. Hope is understood to have written a letter to the leading members of the university, informing them of his desire to represent the university is parlia ment. Other names are freely mentioned as possible candidates. THE REPRESENTATION or Brirstor..—The friends of Messrs. Robinson and Bowling bad another meeting on Monday to receive the answers of these gentlemen to the resolution passed en Thursday last. Both gentlemen have withdrawn, and the liberal party owe more united am look about for a fresh candidate. As usual when • vacancy is expected, the names of several persons have been mentioned as probable candidates, but no name is yet beton the committee of the Libenl /mods lion, and it is premature to UIDOIIIICO anyone. Mr. John Walter, late hl P. for Berkshire, was thought of. He would, in some respects, have been an admirable candidate ; but it is no secret that be i• the choice of the liberals for the next election for Berkshire, and being certain of the seat there, he could not essopt any Son to Bristol. Mr. Frederick Peel and Sir Henry A. Hoare, Bert., have also been named, and so has Mr. Samuel Morky, of London. There is some doubt if t In. he latter being aoilm to stand for Middlesex, maid be dueed to relinquish that eagagement ; but there as M no question of his 'knew, and that he would bean able and popular candidate. For many yeas" be Du been shale man of the liberal committee of the City of Leaden, and all over Begland he is well known for his muniAsent set tributions to religions and charitable object, and op. dolly for the warm interest be has ehown in the mad sad materiel intends of the industrial ebases.—Waters -- iit:AW.

AUSTRIA. VIENNA, JAN. 21, Emcnro. The news that has appeared in several French journals of a new circular note from Baron von Beust in reference to the eventual attitude of Austria in European questions is, on reliable au thority, declared to be unfounded. In to-day's sitting of the Reichsrath Delegation, the standing orders were adopted en bloc. The Minister of Finance then brought forward the budget for common affairs, after which the secreta ries of the delegation were elected. The decree relating to the oath to be taken by all public functionaries to the constitution of the empire is said to have received the imperial sanction. The government, it is believed, intends to lay before the Reichsrath a bill on the subject of direct election of deputies to the Lower House. RUSSIA. ST. PETERSBURG, JAS. 21. The invaiiiie of to-day publishes an article com bating the arguments of a Vienna paper that the European Powers should withdraw from their protectorate over the Christians in the East. The article says :—" Were this to happen, all the Chris tian populations under Turkish dominion would rise in despair, and the Christian Powers to save the Turkish Empire would have to ally themselves with the Porte against the Christians."

THEYELTAIf, M.P., AND THE POLITICAL STlCATlON.—Yesterday, in answer to an address from the North Shields Reform League, Mr. Trovelyan, M.P. for Tyremouth, wrote as follows :—" I spree with the lesgue in regarding the rating climes of the Reform Bill as op peemthe to the massed town populations, and as ine ff ectual for any purpose but general annoyance. I especially feel for poor Widows who have their rates largely increased without the advantage of a vote. It is probable that the same evil effects being experienced throughout most of the barge centres of industry in the kingdom will result in the expunging, during the ensuing seuion, of this obnoxious clause. As regards the ballot, I am alwe l ys ready to vote for it, and feel sure ' thee the drat result of the new Reform Bill will be to give the ballot movement • vory perceptible impulse. I shall be ready to support a general system of national education ;an in the iice of such being brought for ward, shall throw in my lot with Mr. W. E. Forster and Mr. Bruer.

TSB LONDON CLERKS' CLML la the course of last autumn the columns of the metropolitan journals were largely occupied by Wes from City clerks, complaining of the high Irises which they were compelled to my to the pro 011120ts of restaurants, or dining-rooms for I 0011 ssons and dinners, and of the inadequate sic emmiodation whichthey obtained for their excessive sispediture. The tavern keepers did not allow theme complaints to go unanswered, and fora ems the controversy between hungry clerks and oirsti- , 1 nate, or at all events unsympathetic, victuallers, waxed fierce and hot. While the di spute was at its height parliament met in November ; the Abys- I sian expedition and the twopenny income tax with drew the attention of the public from the vexed question of " small plates " and "large plates," and 101 their respective cubical contents and prima ; sad probably most persons, who neither by themselves or ' their relations have any knowledge of what is occur ring in the City, fancied that this controversy, like I many others , had proved entirely barren of results, and thatafter a coupleof montlisof angry oomplaint, I the hard-worked employes in City houses had re turned to their old bondage to the proprietors of Cdining -rooms and crowded luncheon bars. Y this impression is not altogether correct is proved by the establishment of the Loudon Chicks' ClertLiralted), which will to-day be opened for the accommodation of the members. This club has been established upon the principle of a limited company. The nominal capita/ is 25,0001. in 25,000 shares of 11. each, and the advantages of the club will, in the first instance at all events„be confined to those who have taken shares. The premises of the dub are at 132, Leadenhall-street, and consist of a spacious luncheon bar upon the I ground, and a commodious dining-room upon the tirst floor, both of which are plainly but substan tially furnished. Above these are the kitchen, two or three rooms in which private dinners may be obtained, and a smoking room. The reason 'liar the establishment of the club, as stated by the • promoters, is that " at present the charges for a satisfactory lunch or a good substantial dinner are far beyond the means of a lar ge number of London I clerks, particularly juniors.' To remedy this evil they propose to give " a good lunch of cold meat, bread, and halt a pint of aleor porter" for sixpence, and " a substantial dinner of hot meat, vegetables. bread and cheese, with half a pint of ale or stout, for a shilling," with additions or alterations of fare' at equally moderate prices. From calculations which have been made, with the assistance of per sons well acquainted with the subject, they believe that, starting from this basis, they can conduct the basins:a of the dub so as to secure a fair interest , upon the capital invested, and at the same time ensure to the shareholders good food, well cooked, and comfortably served. The operations of the club were inaugurated last evening by a dinner to which 00 or 70 members I sat down, under the presidency of Mr. T. Hughes, ' M.P. After the usual loyal and patriotic toasts had been honoured, the chairman, in proposing " Success to the London Clerks' Club," congratu lated the members upon the excellence of their cook, and assured them that if they kept him up to his present mark they would have an astonish ing success. He warned them that they must ex pect some little shortcomings at the outset, but promised them that if by bearing patiently with these they carried their enterprise to a sueessaful issue, they would set an important example which must be highly valued and speedily followed in this great city. He cautioned them against adopting the luxurious habits which defaced some of the West-end clubs, and congratulated them upon the circumstance that they were taking part in that great co-operative movement which had already very much changed the aspect of society in Eng land, and was about to influence all Europe. Those who promoted the co-operative movement were sometimes told that if their principles were adopted no one would be able to know his own business, because every ono would be meddling with every body else's affairs. In reply, they could only say that they never meddled with any one's busi ness until those who carried it on had so managed affairs as to render things intolerable. The reason for the establishment of this club was that the state of things iu the City as to lunching and dining was intolerable, and the determination of those who had founded it wee to secure to the members the best food and drink that could be procured for their money. (Cheers.) The toast was drunk with great cordiality. Mr. Biome, the chairman of the club, in responding, disclaimed any hostility, or even op position, to the proprietors of dinuig-rooms or restaurants in the City of London, and mentioned that the club would not be open after nine o'clock in the evening, or on Sunday. In conclusion, Ihe proposed the health of the chairman as one of a band of men who had devoted cultivated talents and high intellects to the reform of abuses, and who in the words of Tom Brown, when they fought never yielded until they could neither stand nor open their eyes. (Cheers.) The toast was very warmly received. Mr. Hughes, in acknowledging it, said that many arduous ques tions were rising in the future, and it would be the duty of any one who by any circumstances had be mane s public man to the best of his ability to fight through those question, and to take care that he left the country to his c hildren in as good a posi tion as it occupied when be came to manhood. (Hear, hear.) Several other toasts were drunk, and the promedings did not conclude till a late hour. The first meeting of the Royal Horticultural Society this year took plain yesterday, in the council-room of the society, at death Kensington, and a fine show of Tye orchids, and other dowers w ere exhibited.

The CHAIM/LIN, fu) proposing the tout of the evening, "Prosperity to the Warehousemen sad Clerks' Schools," said it was a peculiar feature of the institution that it hod wen from the young men themselves. There was no Utter imeresseinthe world than a good education, and no better inerszooso for a good education than • well-oonducted abed like this. He believed the schools were admi sably well conducted, liberally conducted, religiously rioodneted, and that in its vigorous youth it gave few of a long and enduring maturity. But he re to and that like our own dear country—although Abyminian expedition to expiate it—der sordetfir seganditure was in exams of its incomes (Laughter.) And all must agree that it behoved them, in humble imi tation of our country, to take steps to eq ualise income and expenditure, and to try and make both ends meet for the future—(cheers)--1,2001. were required to bring the income to a level with the expenditure, but uo doubt • mere statement of the claims of the institution would be met by an Immediate acknowledgment of them. The insti- tution was established for the benefit of the oecessitous children of our friends and equals, of our fellow-labourers is the great workshop of life, and they appealed to our best and tenderest feelings ; illy were bound to us by ties the stroogest, meet lasting, and most holy, and we could not do better than to give them a good education. Education was not only the great question but the great necessity of the times. He was not about to embark the company into the mysteries of en education controversy, and bad not the ability to decide between the rival systems. Having himself had the advantage of an education which was now considered somewhat rusty and old fashioned (but for which be could not help humbly thanking God every day of his life—(cheers) — like some other men upon somas other thing., it might be that his sympathies upon this matter were mere conservative than his convic tions. (Laughter.) But, truth to tell, be was very care less what we did so long as we did something for educa tion. (Cheers.) Any educatiou in the world was better than none, and he bad come to think that as it was the inset interest, so it was the duty of this great country to see that our citizens were propel). educated by czunple, by s uggestion, and then, if all other means failed, by sterner measures. (Cheers.) In conclusion, he would say we of the middle clamors have manifestly a magnificent political future opening before ne, and it is our solemn duty to make ourselves and our children, as far an we can, fit for the exercise of those great powers which it has pleased God to put into our bands, to be used, not for our own benefit merely, but far the benefit of our country and of mankind : end as beings, as Shakespeare s•ys, "of large discourse, looking before and after," we are bound to improve ourselvea to the t rigencite of our situatton. and to all ennob li ng, refining, and elevat ing pursuits. Remember that there is a v. ry great diffe rence indeed between greatness and strength. You are strong now you will be still more strong in time to come bat it you would be great, yen must acquire that tempt.- ranee of judgment, that tolerance and charity of feeling, that large and liberal cultivati on of mind which a good education alone can bestow. (Cheers.) And for my part, I have ceased to are whether the education be old fashion,..l or no, whether classical, or mathematical, or physical, so that it be real or true. (Loud cheers.) Other waste were given, including the l'orporation of the City ; Earl Russell, president of the society ; Mr. Leaf, the treasurer, and the Chairman—which toast was drunk with unusual enthusiasm.
