The attendance was numerous, we were informed somewhere about . 20,000, although the exact number had not bps made up whilst we remained. It was staked St pa, however, that it was the largest assem blage since the opening day. It was also largely sprinkled with members of the fashionable world. the RUyal rbghnersi the D uke of Cambridge was an I early visitor; And as representing almost the op site pole of worldly distinction , we may mention the Japenesellamios, who came later, with • large retinue, =eluding several shorthand writers, rove sentatftes, we suppose, of the Gurney of the Eastern' 'wotid. Nothing escapes the notice of these, i f . r a rilren, and with respect to everything r seen 'a Cattle's advice is rigidly follows]. Mr. and. Disraeli might also be observed era nunu curiously the contents of the French court ; and Mr. Loire was absorbed amongst the cameos and mosaic paintings of the Roman. The Earl of fleetly% the Duke of Hamilton, Lord Helper, and othereeithe paid lengthened visits toMr. Hancock, Messrs. Garrard, Hunt and Haskell's, and the cases of other ethibiters in the " preeiqua metals" ; and Mr. Alderman Salomon' exaslifilidaircral of the sculptural chefs-d'resers. With respect to the building itself and its proepeots, it has now been ascertained that the total numberotvisitors for the three days of the first week wa5555,030; and for the six days of the second, supposing Saturday to have reached 20,000, close upon 80,000, not an insignificant number, but not so large as it ought to be, considering what the corresponding numbers were in 1851, and what the increase of the population of London has boon since that time. If, however, we should now have fine weather, and if both exhibitors and. contractors could get their work finished, all lee way might yet be more than made up. Exertion however there must be, as it is understood that 600,0001. will be required to clear all expenses. There is, it must be confessed, great backward ness it; many quarters. The throne has been taken down, and the wooed 6f Mr. Wales splendid crystal chandeliers has been =lb and when we left on Saturday evening • statue of Gen. Outram was slowly moving to • conspicuous position. The French Court was crowded with company, admiring the dinner service of the Hotel de Ville, which is now arranged completely for inspection. TllO public admiration has been, however, diminished since it has been ascertained that the amount of the precious metals employed its construction is something of the smallest. But, with respect to the point of intrinsic value, the same may be said of the majority of the articles exhibited in this court. They are all showy, and some of them very beautiful, but in the market the contents of one of the English jeweller's cases would buy the whole court. The ollewiug ariangemeeta, respecting the admission of Bath chairs into the building, will be in force from this day forward Bath chairs will be allowed in the building under the following regulations :-1. The chairs will only be admitted when the entrance fee is 2s. 6d. or se. 2. The eirtranoe fee must be paid for the attendant an well as for the visitor. 3. On Saturdays, When the building is not opened until 1.2 o'clock, the chairs will be allowed to remain until 3 p.m. On other days, when the doors open at 10 o'clock, they will be allowed to remain until 1 o'clock.'

Pan, SArUSDAY EVINIXO. M. de Metternich, the Austrian Minister at this court, received a telegram this morning, calling him immediately to Vienna, to sorter with his Sovereis: political a ff airs. This news is con sidered hly important, the approaching solution of the I question being, in all prilb bility, the. subject to be dimmed. The Petrie announces that General de- Goyon being detained at Rome for some days longer " from the neoesaities• of the service," will Rot errive in Paris till about the 20th or 26th of May ; "and that the Marquis de lavalette will lease for Rome towards the end of this month." This latter state ment confirms the impression that M. de Lavalette will not again pot his foot in Roos 'until General de Goyon has left it. _ . _ _ Said Pacha, the Viceroy of F 4014 1 ,16 eimeeted **- Toulon on the 19th or 19th instant.

The circumstances alholed .to consist, * you are aware, in the expressed door, Donation of, the French government to put the Concordat in force, and not to allow the streets of Toulouse to be used by the priests for the glorifica tion of their provincial St.•Bartholouiew. But the Archbishop, - Mgr. Florian Desprez, persists in carrying out his pions idea to the extent of his power. He will personally head the procession within his church, "unless he should be obliged to leave for Rome on that very day ;" and he convenes all the higher and lower clergy of his diocese, the superiors of the divers religious orders, and the great and little seminaries, to ' renew the chain of time" on May 15. Political errata have been going on more or lees ever since March, and just now one hears rathermore of them than usual. Among the persons lately ar rested is K Pieri, the son of Orsini's accomplice. The principal offence charged against him is the circulation of a print representing his father mount ing the scaffold. The Figaro-Programme states that the censorship has just refused its authorisation to a new piece by MM. Siraudin, Delacour, and Blum, entitled La lemma Serieteue. _ _ - Anew play called Mirabeau, after having been received by the committee of the Theatre 'Francais, has also met with a veto from the *censors, not, as I understand, for any political reasons, but because the author does not belong to a certain literary clique which has acquired the sobriquet of the " State Muses." The author of Mirabeau is M. Arthur Ponroy, who lately published Le Prhent des Nous, a sort of Greek idyll, which has found great favour with the public. The following despatch has been communicated to the Marseilles journals : The Railway Consultative Committee, compoeed of Zf mambas, has unanimously rejected the demand made by the .Bwis Railway Company for an inquiry relative to their projected line from Gets to Marseilles along the meat. Baron de Damaa t formerly governor to the Count de Chambord, has just died in Paris. remains unabated. The line has been carefully inspected for a considerable distance, and the chizacter of the perma nent way accurately ascertained. The moult will be com municated to the jury at their next sitting. It would appear, from a further examination of the lies, that the train, or &portion of it, first left the metals near the plane where a temporary line leads to a ballast bola, some 300 or 400 yards from the spot wh ere the carriages were dashed down the embankment, and along the whole of that distance the rails appear to have been relaid, and new chairs in serted. Various muses have been assigned for the accident, but most of them, more or lees, of an Improbable character. There is one, however, that n gene rally received, which certainly bears MOM the impress of reasonableness than any of the others that have been cur rent in the neighbourhood. It is this—that t►e recent heavy rains having affected the permanent way, the goods train that paused over the 1 ine shortly previous to the accident somewhat widened the gauge, and then the speed of the mail train, coupled with its comparative lightness. mend the carriages to oscillate, and ultimately to get off the line. The sodden tread.* powerless against the extra prewar* to which they were subjected, gave was, the rails easily be game displaced, and then the running off of the carriages was the inevitable consequence. Be this as it may, there is • more probability in the suggestion, and it is worthy of the notice of the jury. Two of the injured men, David Mapple ntos (of the audit office of the London, Chatham, and Dower Railway), and Mr. Thompson (barrister, of Dublin), are pro. greasing satisfactorily, considering the nature of the injuries they have sustained. Those of Mr. Ifappleston are entirely of an internal character; but Mr. Thompson's are ohiefly external. On the left side of his forehead there is a deep incision, some four inches in length, and ex tending down to the cheek bone, and there is another severe wound crossing the eyebrow. He has rallied conaiderahly, and has been able to converse with his attendants. He wu riding in one of the first-claas carriages, sad when found the compartment was nearly filled with bricks, the end of the carriage having been forced spinet the garden wall at the bottom of the embankment. The other sufferer, Mr. Win. Oroskfard, of Rochester, lies in a very preoarious state at the Anchor Inn, and is not expected to survive the day. His leg has been amputated just below the call, and his fractured arm set. The severe contusions on other parts of his body have also been attended to. He is par featly resigned to what be believes will terminate his earthly career. Mr. Orockford has been an active member of the Rochester town council, and is the chairman of the Medway Union court of guardians, and for many years has filled the office et treasurer to the Wesleyan Missionary Society for thecounty of Kent. Being upwards of 60 years of age, the shock his necessarily affected the entire nervous system. apart from the external injuries above mentioned, and renders the chances of recovery extremely improbable. • .s, lAN S PAPER . •_ AO • ilk ,, , . , „....-.....„..) •••••,..4 ~ ----..._....i 111 it I f ly 41 ,t •(, ,t P 1,..... • • V I • • ....

THE °Rua INTERNATIONAL CATTLHSHOW JW_ 8412'J The Royal Agricultural Society of England are making extensive preparations for the International Cattle Show to be held in Battersea-park during the ensuing month. The ground on which the show is to take place is already staked out to the extent of some 25 or 26 scree, and workmen are engaged in making the necessary drainage and other requirements for so extensive an exhibition. Nor is it intended that the exhibition of this year shall be merely confined to the cattle show and stationary engines to be exhibited at 'letting:a-perk. The council of the Royal Agricultural Society of England have secured two hundred acres of land in the vicinity of the Farningham station of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, where there will be a public exhibition of every description of steam culti. vators in action. In order to render it the more attractive, arrangements have been made by the council with the London, Cluitham, and Dover Company to run frequent trains, at merely nominal charges, hawses Victoria station and Farnioghain. The programme of the arrange ments for the forthcoming exhibition are as follows :—Mon day, the 23rd Jane, is fixed for the opening of the show. The Ist of May was the last day of entry, and the number of entries is very larp. The Right Hon. Lord Portman is the president of the year. Stewards of live stock : The Hon. W. Cavendish, M.P., Mr. Pain, and Mr. Milward. Foreign stock: Mr. Fisher Hobbs. Implements: Lord Leigh, the Hon. A. Vernon, Mr. Torr ; and steward elect, Sir E. Kerrisou, Bart., N.P. Other portions of the m ment devolve on the Hon. Colonel A. Nelson Hood a rr Barnett, the Hon. A. Vernon, Mr. W. Fisher Hobbs, Mr. C. Wren Hoekyns, Mr. 'lnward, Mr. Torr, Mr. Henry Wilson, Mr. Browne'', H.P.. Mr. Canteill, Mr. Drum, Mr. Pope, Mr. Barrett, and Mr. Wells ; whilst the general arrangements of the show are entrusted to Mr. th Gibbs, the well-known and efficient honorary secretary of the Smithfield Cattle Mb, and Mr. 11. Hall Dare, the secretary of the Royal Agricultural Society. The principle upon which the exhibition will be opened to the various classes of the public will be on the graduated scale, varying from the sum of one sovereign down to one shilling. Governors and members of the society are to be admitted to the show yards without payment, by tickets issued by the society, but which are not transferable ; and members of the Highland and Agricultural Societies of Scotland are to be admitted upon the rime terms as membered the society.

CAYSTAL PALACE. The otimieto pi 1862 seems to have opened with cheerful ggesison toss the Crystal Palace Company. Two weeks of the am year which, at the Crystal Palace, counts from planate May-slay, have not yet elapsed, but each week increasing anmbsra seem disposed to avail them selves of the treestirel of delight which it contains. What tits groves of Mums or pleasant Lucretilis were to the bird and jaded Roman, the Crystal Palms is to the population of London—the spot beyoed all others when the copies of the greatest chels-d'utuvre in art eoultind meet a magnifioent prospect of mann are to be found I. the pietist abandanoe sad perfection. To the re sults of Sir J. Paxton's genius—the light and airy building sad the roiling runny, sow ilied with haddlag dowses of every hare--add the efforts of thi.dirif49o seed mood& to secure whatever •is most popular and talking at the inemeat, and the moss is at oaee explained of the preference aceordad by the public judgment and the public taste to the Crystal Palace. On Saturday last some thoussuulsassembled in the coooert-room of the Palace to hear fragments from the " minstrelsy divine " of Bonin and Bellini, charmingly rang by the listen Marchisio. The grand duet, "No Matilda non mortal," from -Malikle de &arm ; the duet "Glom d'orrote," from Seisirawaide ; aid the dust "Dab " whi: '" capti va t ed N" th 4' e wardienwig nce, with a and gr t ace l7a and ppls fillgh The pleasant aria " )1 adamina," from Don Oiovanni, was snug with great sweetness by Signor Cosselli. The I band, under the experienced sad Luton/seat leadership of ' Mr. Monari, aimed the inuatiel programme by performing BeetharaM Symphony No. 2 is I), and concluded it by the spirited Fackeltanz in B fin of Ifeyerbeer. The picture I I gallery has been re-ope ned , anda POW otilection of British and foreign whitings h as been added to the earlier list which the Palace contained. This department of the contents would of itself occupy the greeter portion of a day to study properly. But that portion of the gallery which will have most attraction for the British public will be the Vic toria Cross Gallery, which contains the paintings of Dwanee illustrating some of the most gallant deeds of daring ever performed. The subjects are taken from the events of the late Russian and Patin wan and the Wien rebellion, sad the greatest Mond wen ensaiftstad by the visitors to trace the history of the Incidents recorded. It required but little effort, however, to recall the event which each of the 47 whitlow here exhibited records, and no inipisat warrior can be • spectator here for may time without feeling his heroic" impalas' stimulated aid ani mated. Between painting and statuary ad music and satins there is enough, and more than enough, to satisfy the most insatiate appetite for all that is chum* and beautiful. Nor should it be unsaid that some alterations have bees made in that department of the Crystal Palace which miaisten to the physical wants, and which, it is be lieved, will promote the substantial comforts of hungry and thirsty mortals. We can only add, that after satisfying the 'esthetic cravings, many hundreds of visitors on Satur day last were well pleased to make acquaintance with the culinary compositions of Mr. Strange. THE JAPANESE MISSION. The members of the Japanese Embassy, accom panied on all oceasions by Mr. Macdonald, are making the most of the time allotted far their stay among us. Yee terday, attended by some of the priecipal °Seers of their suite, thq paid a visit to Kew.prdens, returning b way of Blehownd Park in the evade( to alwirquartees &IL • Hotel. On &terdiy they went to see the Land m the Thames Tunnel, and the Tower. In the evening they were present at the assembly of lady Palmerston, at Cambridge House. On Friday, at half-past 3 o'clock, they went in state to the Foreign-office 6 ly appoint meet, and had an interview with The Marquis of Lansdowne was present, as were also Mr. Lsyard and Mr. Hammond. The inter view listed about half an hour, and in the course of the converestion the ambassadors, through their interpreters, said they were delighted with all that they had seen in England and with the courteous receptiou they had every where experienced. On the same day they paid • lengthened visit to Buchanan's archery warehouse in Pic. oaddly. Mr. Buchanan took great pains to explain the nature and virtues of the various rare woods employed by him. He also instructed his visitors in the English method of shooting, while they in turn exhibited the mode adoped by themselves in Japan. On Thurs day they were invited to lunch with • select party at Grosvenor Houma, by the Marquis and Marchioness of 1 6 / a ttainder, and were afterwards present at an assembly held by the marchioness. On Saturday Dr. Mituknry and Dr. Mataki-Ku an, accompanied by Otah, an officer of the mission, paid another visit to King's College Hospital. They were received by Mr. W. If. Smith, the chairman, Mr. Ferguseon, Mr. Moody, Mr. Cheese, Mr. Sembrooke, and Dr. Guy, and afterwards proceeded to the operating theatre, which was unusually crowded on the occasiou. Among the distinguished foreign visitors were Dr. Despine, Dr. Duchenne, Sir Joseph Olaf., and others. The Japanese occupied the reserved seats. A number of important opera tions were performed (as usual, under the influence of chloroform) by Mr. Ferguseon and Mr. Bowman. M the conclusion the Japanese visited expressed their gratification with the attention shown to them by the hospital staff, and presented them with pipes, specimens of coins, china, drawings, and autographs. They seemed to receive with much plessurethe cartes de visite and autographs offered to them in return by the medical men connected with the hospital. The ambassadors intend shortly to pay • visit to Liverpool, where, it is said, they will be entertained at • banquet by the Mayor and corporation. kENDICITY SOCIETY. The forty-fourth meeting of this society was held on Saturday, at their h Red Lion-square, and was numerously attended. The uh of WISTIOIIBI7A was in the chair. The report stated that the year 1861 shows a considerable increase of distress among the poorer chases, and that up to the present time they see no ground for expecting a speedy return to a mere prosperous state. The war in America, and the consequently diminished supply of cotton, and im paired resources of the consumers of our manufactures, have led to a decrease of employment, and to some amount of suf fering among those engaged in their fabrication. In the first five months of the past year there was en increase of 155 per I eentin the number of our applicants for relief as compared with that of the preceding year, and the fine four weeks of the year showed an increase of more than 300 per cent beyond those of the corresponding time of 1860. The lad harvest of the preceding year, and the severe weather which the following winter brought with it, doubtless operated in causing distress, amongst the working population. The registered came—that is, thou which have received more than ordinary attention and assistance—have ben during the past year 446 ; a number, although not quite equal to the average of the 10 preceding years (which is 459), yet in excess of that of 1860, which was 430; and the cases not requiring such investigation, and therefore classed as unregistered, were 7,606, being an increase on the average of the 10 years prece ding (which was 6,159, or nearly 24 per cent.,) and an increase beyond the preceding year to the great extent of 3,382 cases. In like manner, the meals gives by the society have incensed from 42,192 in 1860 to 73,077 in 1861, the average of the 10 years preceding 1861 being 36,802. The amount 'pantie the relief of mendicants was 1,4701. 19s. 11d., being comiderably in axons of that so spent in any of the nine preceding years, and exceeding by the sum of 5641. it.. 11d, the amount so spent in the year immediately pre ceding. Of this amount 1531- 19s. was given without labour, and 3d ii. 15s. 4d. es the wages of labour ; 8621. 7a. 7d. was paid for food, 661. 3e. 10d. for clothes, sod 41. 14e. 34. for baths, which the mansion are glad to find are often grate fully accepted by applicants. The number of migrant@ con elated during the past year shows • small decrease—being 335, against 350 in the previous year. Those apprehended were 745, the number in 1860 being 739. The total mouse of expenditure during the year was 4,242/. 3e. Bd., being an increase of nearly 1,1001. beyond the expenditure of 1860, which was 3,1694 16.. 11d.; but, in addition to the greater distress which our mousse were called upon to meet, the outlay et 1861 corn primd the cut of impairs to their premiss% ,which amoneted to the sum of 4391. 18s. 6d. The managers regret to state that, heavily se the resources of the society have been taxed duriug tbseastyear.inot only has uo•dditionalaid to their efforts ben obtained, blather* hasbeen a continued diesinueion of their ordinary realms.
