That the CZAR'S approaching visit to France suggested the decree is probable enough, and France, or at least that liberal France which has never deserted the cause of Poland, deserves our congratulations. If we count it an honour that the slave who touches English ground is free, our neighbours may surely consider it an honour that a CzLR who conies to France inaugurates his journey to wards Western Europe by a propitiatory sacri fice on the altar of mercy. It appears that on the morning after his arrival in Paris the CZAR hastened to bear to the Empress Ecoms the good tidings of the decree he had signed at St. Petersburg. Cynics say that there is an exquisite self-in dulgence in some acts of kindness. We would rather say of the present act that it is equally honourable to its author, and to the Im perial lady to whom he announced it as the most welcome satisfaction to her gentle and pious heart. The Empress Euossis has doubt less often grieved to hear of the sufferings of the imprisoned and banished Polish insurgents, but her sympathies as a devout and fervent Catholic have probably been still more deeply shocked by the sufferings of the priests who were martyrs at once of their country and of their faith. This amnesty will have consoled and cheered her ; to speak of it as a delicate flattery would be a most indecorous misinterpretation of such a mes sage of good will. Our contemporary Le Temps justly observes that this amnesty is but an act of " partial reparation." The merciless denationali zation and expropriation of the Polish Kingdom pursues its course uninterrupted by an occasional pardon of prisoners and exiles. And the condi tions which the decree attaches to the enjoyment of the amnesty leave to the arbitrary discretion of the authorities an opportunity of excluding many from its operation. Let us, however, put the best construction we can upon an act praiseworthy in itself, in spite of all limitations and re strictions. Above all things, let us abstain from impertinent Pharisaic attacks upon the Russian Government for not being so merciful and tender-hearted as some Governors of Jamaica. There are recollections not very re mote, and circumstances too close at hand which should warn 118 for the present to he content with the supposition that when the Emperor ALEX ANDER signed this amnesty for the Poles he had heard of the commutation of sentences in Ireland. Letters have been received in Southampton from Father Gavazzi from Pistoja in Italy. NEWSVENDOItte BENEVOLENT AND PROVIDENT INSTITUTION.—Last evening the annual dinner in aid of the funds of this institution took place at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street, Lincoln's-inn-fields; Mr. W. H. Smith in the chair. There were about 110 ladies and gentlemen present, and amongst them were Mr. Danby Seymour, M.P., Mr. Edmund Yates, Mr. R. J. Wood (the founder of the institution), Mr. Charles Gruneisen, Mr. F. Chapman, Mr. Henry Smith, Mr. John Hodge, Mr. Smug Spalding, Mr. Pierce Egan Captain Mayne Reid, Mr. Heury . lllackett, &e. The Chairman having discharged his duty in reference to the routine toasts proposed " l'roeperity tothe Institution," observing that it was a society very little known to the public, and he was afraid very little known to the newsvendors themselves. At the same time it could not be doubted that it presented very strong claims upon the trade for its support, as well as upon the press itself and the public at large, he therefore appealed most earnestly to the benevolent con sideration of the company present ; and he did so upon these grounds, that of all occupations that of the news- vendor was probably one which taxed to a larger extent than any other the energies of those who followed it. They discharged their duties under circumstances of con siderable hardship and difficulty, and which sometimes led to the breaking down of the person who pursued the occu pation. He need hardly say, therefore, how incumbent it was upon the newsreaders to lay by money toprovide against sickness, misfortune, and death ; and he beli eve d h e m i g ht say that it was equally incumbentupon those who supplied the contents of the newspapers to lend a helpinghand to the individual, through whose agency news was so widely /Mimed. In his judgment the newsagents of this country afforded a medium of circulation cheaper and better than could be supplied by any other system that might be brought into existence. This being so, he conceived that newavendore had fair claims to the support of the public, especially when it was considered that the sole amount of stock the society possessed was 2,500/., out of which seven pensioners were paid M. a year each. This left three deserving applicants unprovided for, and he sincerely trusted that the meeting of that night would result in enabling the society to extend its useful operations. Sub scriptions were afterwards announced amounting to about SOW., a much larger sum than the society has heretofore collected. Mr. Frith's picture of the marriage of the Prince 1 1 and Princess of Wale. (the property of the Queen) is now being exhibited at a Fine Art Gallery in the Haymarket, ao that those who were unable to see it in the Academy, owing to the then crowded state of the rooms, have now an opportunity of doing so. THE COLLECTION OF THE LATE JOHN PHILLIP, R.A.—The costumes, artistic accessories, old carved fund- Lure, bronzes, books of prints, photographs and engravings, ke., were disposed of yesterday and the preceding days, at the rooms of Mews. Christie, Manson, and Woods. The proceeds of the entire collection amounted to 18,500/. In the great sale of Saturday lot 347, entitled simply " The Cr.ulle," was a commission from her Majesty. It was an interior of a Highland cottage • a mother sitting by the side of a cradle, anxiously watching over hersleeping child— the light coming in from a window over the head of the cradle with charming effect ; a small cabinet work of the most exquisite quality. It was purchased by Messrs. Agnew, of Waterloo-place, expreasly for her Majesty, and was forwarded yesterday to Buckingham-palace, togeth er with a beautiful drawing of Bmetuar (lot 2.52), in water colours—also a commission from her Majesty—a drawing made by Phillip on the spot. SPEECH DAY AT ETON.—The annual delivery of I speeches, and the accustomed festivities connected there with, was celebrated yesterday in the presence of a large assemblage. Formerly, when the Derby-day or the first day of Ascot Races happened to fall on the 4th of Jane, the college authorities have occasionally postponed the day, in deference to the wishes :, f visitors and the many old Etonian' who were in the habit of meeting on these occasions. This year, however, it was considered unneces• nary to postpone the day, and consequently at 11 o'clock in the forenoon the Great and South Western lines of railway on their arrival at Windsor were unusually thronged with visitors to the college as well as to the course. At half-past 11 the procession of the college dignitaries entered the upper schoolroom, the galleries of which were crowded with the aristocracy, and the recitations were delivered. The delivery occupied about an hour and a half, and the interval before the banquet in the college hall, which took place at four o'clock, was spent in inspecting the beautiful chapel, ancient manuscripts, and choice volumes of the library, under the guidance of Mr. Howse. There was then a promenade in the shooting fields to the music of the fine band of the Soots Fusilier Guards, although the frequent showers of the morning bad ren dered the ground unfavourable. At seven o'clock the Brocas became unusually crowded to wit ness the starting of the crews to "Old Surly." On the arrival at Surly-hall, a splendid al fresco, or what is now termed a Surly-hall supper, awaited the crew. After drinking the customary toasts, the boats were re manned, and the crews returned to Windsor-bridge, ar riving there shortly after 9 o'clock, when a brilliant dis play of fireworks was discharged from the Eyot by Mr. Fenwick, of Lambeth, whilst the crews rowed round seve ral times in the presence of the numerous spectators which lined the banks of the Thames. ya!mmiss : THE MEETING OF THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SociEnr.—Tboeo who are familiar with such exhibitions are aware that in spite of the great drawback originally fe.ired from the exclusion of cattle, the meeting as a whole will display a marked superiority over any previous one. Not only will the show of implements and machinery in motion be unprecedented in extent—so large indeed that had cattle been allowed on the ground the society would have found itself at a loss for room—while a magnificent show of horses will go far towards snaking up the deficiency in live stock, but the arrangements for the accommodation of the society, the exhibitors, and the visitors generally will be a great improvement upon those of any of the preceding shows, and are likely to be pronounced Si near perfection as they could possibly be consistently with the temporary and migratory character of the exhibition. When to this is added the presence of the Rnynl Horticultural Society's superb display in the immediate vicinity, in providing for which no less fore thought has been exercised to ensure that the first visit of this great met rop olitan society to the provinces shall be thoroughly successful, our readers will be able to appreciate the grounds for anticipating an incursion of visitor, such as the Royal Agrioaltnral Society has never before brought to any town. —Barg and Nomad' Post. Atmospherical pressure Is lessthan - it was yesterday, especially In the north-west, and is still decreasing. Winds on the north coast are south-easterly, elsewhere they are south-westerly with increased force. A gold deal of rain has fallen In the went, and thunder and hall are reported on Cue east coast. The Nord says :—" The Sultan will be escorted by a part of his Guard, whose uniform is most brilliant. Abdul Asir will also bring three of his favourite saddle horses—one white, one a light liver-colour and spotted, and the third an ebony-black. The Sultan rides on the old high-peaked saddle of the Caliphs, with gold trap ping.. A purple cloth covers the honors croup, and the gold tassels are supported by persons of his suite. He is very simple, and nearly always in plain clothes. He his suppressed the diamond aigrette which formerly adorned his fez, according to traditional custom. Abdul Aziz is of ordinary height, and very active and robust. Whilst at Paris he will probably, at reviews and official fetes, wear his State costume." A letter from St. Petersburg says :—" The winter seems reluctant to quit us. Communications with Cronstadt are scarcely re-establised. while those between that port and Oranionbaum are effected with difficulty through the floating ice. Accounts received from the pro montory of Krasuida-Gerka, however, state that the open sea is free." The approaching arrival in France of Muley- Abbas, brother of the Emperor of Morocco, and charged to represent that sovereign, is announced. He is ex pected to leave Tangier early in July with a brilliant suite. THE CHOLERA AT BUENOS AYRES. —LIVERIVOL, TUESDAT.—A telegram was yesterday received here, dated Buenos Ayres, April 26. The cholera was increasing. The Paraguayan army had departed from their encampments at Cunsa and Tuytia in consequence of the cholera. The plague had increased to a fearful extent, and the average deaths in two days were about 2,700. The Argentine por tion of Brazils was quiet. The Brazilian authorities had ordered all their troops into " saleveros" until the cholera had subsided. The Argentine government had concluded a loan with the River Plate Bank for 130,00 W. So fearful were the ravages of the cholera in Buenas Ayres that 10,000 " feies " took place every night in the city, 1114 a kind of preventive against the disease. MORN 1318HOPrI. Lord Lyttelton's bill as it now stands provides exclu sively for the erection of three new bishoprics, the legal recognition of suffragan, or coadjutor bishops having been struck out. The Times, looking into the scheme, observes that a moiety of the amount necessary for the endowment must be obtained with the sanction of parliament by an appropriation from the fund in the hands of the Ecclesias tical Commissioners, and says it may be safely predicted that in the face of the spiritual destitution known to exist in every English diocese, the Lower House will be slow to facilitate the further en dem:tient of the el is spate out of church property. This cry for more bishops represents not a popular de mand, but an ecclesiastical theory. The popular impres sion, right or wrong, is that we have quite enough bishops, if they would but attend more to their own proper duties, superintending their clergy with greater vigilance, but preaching less—unless where they happen to be specially gifted—wasting leas time in convocation, mingling loss in fashionable soceity, and celebrating fewer marriages in high life. Nor does a consideration of the matter from an historical point of view lead us to a different conclusion. On arguments of practical expediency, the case for an in crease of the episoopate breaks down. It might, indeed, render the ecclesiastical system of the established church more perfect, but this is not what bee best friends most desire. Before we subscribe for more bishops, let us sub scribe for more parochial clergymen, augment the stipends of our poor curates, and make our livings yield a liveli hood for men of high education. REFUSAL OF CHRISTIAN BURIAL. The Rev. George A. Seymour, of Holy Trinity, Win chester—whose refusal to bury with Christian rites a parishioner who died while under his pastoral care and in struction, on the ground that he was nut baptised, has recently been the subject of unfavourable comment—has addressed a letter to a local newspaper justifying his con• duct. The Daily News acquits him of having acted in a spirit of tyrannyorharahness, but says that he seems to have followed the letter of the ruhricto the disregard of its spirit. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. THE CZAR "MOBBED" IN PARIS. (nom om owl oomtesantsr.) PARIS, TUMMY Emma. This morning the Prince and Princess Royal of Prussia were at the Übiversal Exhibition at an e arly hour. At noon the Princess, leaving the Prince by himself, got into her carriage, and pro, ceeded to the British embassy. In half an h oar she returned, bringing with her Prince Louis of Hesse, the Princess Alice, and Lady Cowley. They were joined by the Prince of Prussia in the splendid Prussian pavilion just fitted up, where the party bad a gay dejedner d/a foureltette. At 2 o'clock, the royal ladies being left with Lady Cowley, the Prince of Prussia and the Prince of Hesse got into a carriage and four, with postilions, to make an excursion together in the neighbourhood of l'a The Emperor of Russia was in the Exhibition as early as 9 o'clock. He looked as he generally does —extremely grave and thoughtful ; but talked in a friendly and familiar way to several Russian et. hibitors. He breakfasted in the Russian restau rant. After breakfast ho went to see the Chiny Museum and the Palais de Justice, and, according to reports—of which all Paris is talking, and is which there must be at least some truth—he a sadly mobbed and insulted in both places. In front of the Cluny Museum be was surrounded by students who waved white handkerchiefs on the point of their sticks and shouted " Vise ►a Pologne " with all their might. Hurrying aw a y from this disagreeable scene the Czar went to the Palais de Justice, but he had scarcely ascended the steps when a group of young advocates in their robes called out " Vivo la Pologne " in such a manner as to attract his attention. General Lebold, who was conducting the Czar round the law courts, waved his hand in a deprecatory manner, entreating the advocates to be quiet. One of them stepped forward, and striking his breast said, " I am Maitre —. I say Vive la Pologne,' and I have a right to do so." The Czar was naturally extremely annoyed at this recep tion. After passing a few minutes in the Saints Chapelle he declined General Lebienf's offer to take him to the Court of Cessation, and hastened to regain his carriage. The rumour of this untoward incident reached the Bourse, and I ant assured that it affected the funds. It is feared that the Czar may have a bad reception in going to the Opera to night. I am assured positively that news of the unfor tunate Maximilian having been shot has lxutt received at the Foreign-office, but that it will he kept back as long as possible. The Bourse opened with animation and Rente rose to 70fr. 65c. There was afterwards a sudden reaction, and after declining to 70fr. 20c. it closed at 70fr. 30c. for cash, and 70fr. 40c. for account.

Mr. Poibody responded on the 30th ult., as follows :—" New York, April 30, 1867.—Gentlemen,— I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your note yesterday, requesting that I would permit you to take charge of the portrait of her Majesty Queen Victoria, which she has presented to me, and to place it on exhibition in the city of Philadelpbia.

NEW ROUTE BETWEEN LIVERPOOL ASP LON- DoN.—The constant increase of traffic on the iondon and North Western Railway between Lancashire awl the south induced the directors some years hack to tale steps t? provide • new outlet for the traffic from Livcqcol.
