The musical arrangemeota were oe a very extensive scale, and were most attractive is character. It need only be men tioned that Mr. Sims Hoene, Mr. end Madame Weiss, Mdlle. l'uepa, Madame Ssioton-Dolhy, Miss Poole, Miss Romer. Miss Grace Barrow, Mr. Young, Mr. Wilbye Cooper, Herr Reichardt, Herr Lauterback, and that most remark. able mistreat of song, Mdlle. Enequist, contributed their services, to prove that in respect to vocal talent the News paper Press Food dinner was one of unusual strength and brilliaocy. Mr. Benedict conducted what, if it were not a dinner party, might well be designated a concert, and &mom. palsied the singers on one of Broadwood's best pianos, which was kindly loot for the occasion. Whoa the first part of the musical programme had been brought to a clod*, The CIIAIRUAN, in proposing " The Health of her Majesty," said that the loyalty of feehog throughout the country at the present time contrasted io a remarkable man. ner with that which existed some years since, when the editor of the Exarmarr was confined within the durance of • 'instl for retleceeg harshly on the character of the sore. reiie.

(Cheers.) The toast was drunk with much cheering, and was fol lowed by the "National Anthem." The &Mamas next gave "The Health of his Royal High ness the Prince of Wales, and the other members of the Royal Family." They bad witnessed, be said. bow admi rably the Prince of Wales had presided the other day at the annual dinner of the Literary Fund, and how cheerfully he disoharged all the duties of that position. (Hear, hear.) Metrosted that the time might not be far distant when they would see his royal highness taking the chair at the dinner of the Newspaper Press Fund. (Cheers.) He begged to propose "The Health of the Primes of Wales, the Princesa Consort, and the other members of the Royal Family." (Hear, hear.)" . . . Toe soast was received with loud cheer& The CHAEVIAN low gave •• The Army, the Navy, acd the Volunteers." Lord Ramona Mused thanks. Mr. Sims Reeves mug '• The Death of Nelson" with mag nificent effect, and was vociferously cheered, the whole of the company rising and joining in the applause. The noble CIUMIMAY proposed the toast of the even ing, and was followed by the Hon. Geo. DENMAX, Sir EBaJLINC PISIIY, in proposing " Thu Houses of Par liamet," said that when be did himself the honour of accepting the levitation of addreiring them on the subject he knew that there were certain penalties to accompany that hoconr, one of which was to make his speech before. perhaps, the most critital audience in the world. (A laugh.) He was requested to couple with it the premier earl of •Roglsod, but the noble earl had been compelled to leave, in order to perform the important duty of chairman at a meeting in the unary. They had, however, some &B anished members of the other house of parliament present. He had no difficulty in propane* this tort, became meat and and the peas thrived so pleasantly Whe ther, Lased. be did not know whether he ought to say • The Parliament and the PM.," or "The Press and the Parliament," because those powers appearedso evenly balanced one did not know which was superior. Mr. NEWDIGATE, in responding, mid that, having taken a deep interest in the re-formation of this society, he thought that be should rather thank the majority of the company for the service they rendered to the Home of Gam mas than be thanked by them for the honour they had been kind enough to confer on that branch of th e legislature. It would be impertinent on hia put if be were to attempt to enter into a history of the House of Commons in the pre mince of those who were so well acquainted with its charm. teristice ; but he felt that their profession was booming more and more important to the state, because intelligence had travelled with a readiness unknown in former days • and it wu to them that the House of Commons truste d their being understood by their otiostitheeta. They enabled coostita..le to judge of the ashes. of their repeenotetivas who were not delegates, but repreeeetatives. (Hear.) That distinction was essential to be kept in mind; at the same time, without that promptitude of information which they furl:abed, they could not grasp the rapid feast and ire- puu• of those it was their duty to represent. Thum it we. that the press became the most important organ in the state—not the fourth estate, as it was sometimes called, because that implied separation, and the press was identified with the other estates. (Hear, bear.) It was owing to their exertions that public opinion was combined is parliament, and directed safely in its operas. He rejoiced that their great brunch of the literary profession was now beginning to assume its true position, for they were the great outposts —the ridettes of the republic of letters, and hitherto thee had not been recognisant that honourable petition to which they were entitled by their talents and services. He had con sulted with others as to whether it might not be possible for minimal to acknowledge their services by some mark nitios worthy of their soceptaftee. They werea portal of the great republic of letters whose dominion was mind, and that must be fres from all control—(chess)—atid only oos. fined within the limits which the Almighty had assigned. There was no greater blessing to a State than a free press ; but it must be relay free, because a Frees that was tram melled or corrupt was of all caress the greatest. (Cheers.) He believed that the noble chairman, in supporbo; this institution, had laid the foundation for the support of the branch of literature which was here so ably represented from the only legitimate sources, via, the public itself ; and from that day he trusted there would arise a combination neither corrupt, nor factious, nor restricted, but a combination smoopt themselves which should ensure whole:nue competition, and at the same time elevate themselves, and by their own elevation they would secure that temper in the public mind and that soundness of abbe judgment which were essential to main tain England in that position which he, as an " old Tory," so ardently desired. (Laughter and cheers.) Re felt that he was in his place in supporting as institution that combined at once both the elements and feelings of the aristocracy and demearacy, ad he trusted they were sow combined to hold that balance equal which had been the strength and glory of our common country. (Cheers.) Mr. 50815? BILL proposed " The Health of the Chair man." The noble Cumulus briefly acknowledged ►he toast. Mr. W•RAF.X, the hoc. secretary, arILOUDONt that the imbicriptiona and donations amounted to more than 1,500/.

The dimensions of the pr.grnuunie are not so alarming, tweaty tive races being very easy work to get through during four days, and Tuesday's proceedings will be of the quiet and enjoyable kind, with but mix events to get through, most of them being of an interesting character. The Woodoote Stakes, for 2-yr-olds, six furlongs, will probably bring to- gether Puritan, Gardevisurs. hienatioar ' and one of two dark juveniles with good reputations, Lord St. Vincent having a couple under orders is Plantageeet and Lily Lye, while Mr. Merry and Lord Stamford will probably join WIN with a dyer each also, However, if Gardevwure (the filly by Vedette out of Paradigm that achieved such an may triumph here at the spring meeting) _an only stay the distance, she may agate successfully defy all comers. The Lleatlicote Plate, hslf-a.mile, has three winning 2-yr-olds engaged, viz., La Idechante, Black Duchess, and Boasts lase ; but Attraction ought to give them all the Mb, looking at the way she out down Black Dueller at Bath, with Lady Midas, limper, and others, and eke may also successfully oppose a couple of &st rata half-milers like Blaraey and Linda, the letters' forte being speed. For the Bons Haodicap, cite mile, the best of Goodwin s pair—Lucky Star sad Lady Hylda—will be hard to dispose of, as will also Soapstone, the severe mile being just a little too much for lioulsey, or be would be better worth standing on than anything else, with all the weight, there being few three-year-olds beyond Maciiune Walton for him—supposing he is the best of Wsdlow's—to fear in the six-farloog Brighton Handicap, where Marigold is, however, best in. _ _ The Derby Stakes, for•three-year-olds, one mae-eodei half, is the only event worth talking about in Wedneeday's hat.

Holly fox, Copenhagen, and Warrior did not appear until this year, and it is thus very difficult to measure them with last year's celebrities, of whom General Peel, Paris, Historian, Cambium°, Birch Broom, Coes! Guard, Prince Arthur, Ely, and Scottish Chief axe the most distinguished. There are many others likely to start, the following being a list of the most probable competitors : _ Bidden by General Peet T7Aldcr ot Paris lilatotian aaiiox. T. littnch. --.- Coprabasaa & Rogers.

Bengali, Ackworth, Oopecheipie, Valiant, Mar Athol, sod Surat, who have either run so badly (or not at all) that it is impossible to estimate their capabilities, except by the market, which shows that all the above are backed by those in search of the winner. Forager has been a favourite, but is • doubtful starter now ; and Planet, Master Richard, and Apennine are only supposed to start for the purpose of "Arista." their stable compasioas, the chances of the remainder being considered nil, although the Warrior won his only public race with all possible ease. General Peal, Casabas:an, Scottish Chid, Birch Broom, Coast Guard, Historian, Ely, Priam Arthur. Blair Athol, Seraph, Valiant, Copeobagen, and Strafford, have been banked to win large stakes of mosey, and are in high favour sow.

It his not yet been determined whether soy galleries shell be erected, bat under any cirennsateisees is is understood that there will be • large portion of the park enclosed, to which mizsissios will be obtained by tickets. The much* pest it is expected will take pleas es war to six o'clock as pi:sable. The inspection will he made by his Royal High era the Prince of Wales, who will be accompanied by his Royal Higbee= the Commuider-in-Chid sad a &tumorous mUary staff, and will occupy nearly an hour.

Her bull is of iron, and her framework is deeigeed with that regard to strength which is necessary to enable her to ocetend soonest idly with the heavy eau which are otiossiosally to be encountered between our own and the Dutch coasts. Her measurement is 829 toes builders' tonnage, and she registers 600 toes ; and she is propelled by a pair of splendid engines of 220-hone power. Her salcom, cabins, and berths are spacious, light, well ventilated, and comfortable. tike has sooommodation for 116 saloon or first clam, and 52 steerage or snood 0111611 panongen The builders of the ship and the engines an the same—viz., Mason.
