The show of 'wows.. .watt orti at the Crystal Palace was opened yesterday at noon, and during the remainder of the day attracted the notice of an un usually large number of visitors. The show, although not larger than common, presents many points of exceptional excellence. The most striking and attractive Bowers ex hibited are roses, dahlias, hollyhocks, asters, and gla. dioli ; while the fruits embrace grapes, poaches, nec tarines, melons, and a pelt variety of apples and pear . As might be expected at this season of the year, the col lection of roses is small, but the blooms exhibited are of more the n average merit. The show of fruit is Una, and as far at all events as grapes and pine apples are concerned, uncommonly good. The bunches of both black and white grapes are large and well grown ; and many of the pines, besides being well shaped end well ripened, are much beyond the ordinary weight. Peaches, nectarines, and melons, too, are all good ; and as far as one may judge of apples and pears without submitting them to the test of tasting, the specimens of thee. humbler or naments of the dessert table leave little to be desird. Upon several of the stands there are exhibited vines, as well as apple and pear tree, grown in pots, all heavily laden with fruit. The show will remain open to-day and to-morrow. THE REPRESENTATION OF LONDON UNIVERSITY. —An influential meeting of Sir John Lubbock's supportem was held on Monday in the committee-room of Section D, in the west side of the High School, Dundee. Among throe present were—Professor Sir W. Thonoion, president of the Mathematical and Physical Section ; Professor Wheatstone, Professor Sylvester, Professor Tyndall, Pro fessor Sharpey, president of the Anatomical and Physiolo. glad Section, and Secretary of the Royal Society ; Mr. Busk, president of the Section of Botany and Zoology ; Professor Ander,. Professor Allan Thomson, Dr. William son, Professor Hirst, Dr. Odling, Dr. Turner. Professor Tyndall was in the chair. It was proposed by Sir W. Thomson, seconded by Dr. Williamson, and carried ana. nimously by the meeting—" That Sir John Lubbock, Bart., having been brought forward by an influential party among the graduates of the University of London, and an opportunity being thereby afforded of obtaining for science a representation in the House of Commons, it I. highly desirable that those who are interested in science should do all in their power to secure his election." PROPOSED INTERNATIONAL WORKING MEN'S Exit tarrtcor.—Lart evening a public meeting, promoted by exhibitors at the North London, and Metropolitan and Provincial Working Men's Exhibitions, was held at the King Edward frvern, Parkfleld-street Liverpool-road, for the purpose of making arrangements for an international working man's exhibition, which is to he hell in the Ae-ii• cultural Hall next year. After a long discussion the meeting was adjourned for a week, in order to afford time for the formation of &guarantee fund. STATUE or ANonew MARTWL,—A marble statue of Andrew Marvel, to be presented to the corporation of Hull by Mr. Winship, to adorn the interior of the new Town-hall, is now on view at the artist's studio, 9, Lower Belgrave.place, Pimlico. It has, during the past week, been inspected by many persons distinguished in literature and the dna arts, and has been considered a work of great merit. Tan Naw Font!Ar.—A large portion of land near the Lyndburst-read station in the New Forest has just been enclosed for the purpose of growing timber. Only oaks and beeches are planted in the forest, and their growth is protected by the previous planting of firs. There are now only about 100 deer in the forest, and they are chiefly met with in the neighbourhood of Fritham end Beaulieu Manor, when there is good cover for them. Foxes abound, and they keep the game from being too plentiful. Mr. Pownall, the Middlesex magistrate, has recently purchased a beautiful retreat at Woodlands, neer Lyndhurst, one of the loveliest parts of the forest. Nzw POLICIES or ASSURANCE.—By a recant statute (30th and 31st Victoria, cap. 144) every assurance company, on all policies of sasuranos issued after the 30th inst., must specify their principal place or places of busi ness at which notices of assignment may be given.

The Earl of Harrowby—Themingregsions In Frame are hardly parochial; there is at understanding among the clergy that they shall not attach themselves t• parochial divisions!—Yee, the whole et the paroebistidokiestions are considered to be open. • How is that with regard to the visitation of the sick?— We keep that rule also. So that you visit the sick of your conk,:egation and not of your parishes!—lf they belong to one of the other churches we send them to the clergy of that church. So that the system at Fromo now is rather a congrega tional than parochial system f—Yes. The Rev. A. D. Wso N ER, of St. Parrs, Brighton, examined by the Archbishop of CANTER BURY whether his congregations consisted princi pally of persons from his own district, replied : "It is impossible to say. There are a great many " who come out of it, but they come from all " parts of Brighton, and persons in my district go "to other churches. The parochial system may " be said to be extinct in Brighton." Agreements of this character, in which the parochial limits of rights and duties are ignored by the clergy, are of grave significance. They are the recognition of the existence, side by side in the Church, of two incompatible systems. OUR CONTEMPORARIES. (THIS DAY.) GERMAN UNITY. The Timeg, commenting on the speech of the King of Prussia in opening the North German Parliament, says that Count Bismarck has done too little or too much for national unity. There are before and behind him an tagonistic principles which even all the ascendancy of his powerful genius will be insufficient to reconcile. There is 1 a common cry in Europe against his insatiable ambition, although, if the truth were known, it would be seen that events have already driven him far beyond his most daring aspirations. The work of Prussian absorption has already been carried farther than he designed, and it is not without misgiving that a man of his turn of mind would contemplate the merging of Prussia in Germany. The instinct of nationality is strong in German besets, both north and south—so strong as to overrule all considerations of local interests, and to set at naught the jealousy of local governments. But the national tendencies in Baden, in Wurtemberg, and in Bavaria point to other results th►n those at which Bis march and Prussia have hitherto aimed. Should north and south come together in council, it is hardly likely that Prussian conservatism would maintain its preponderance. Prussia's position of &isolate supremacy would be changed into one of merely limited pre-eminence, and the last bul wark of her traditional conservatism would hardly with stand the onset of headlong democratic innovation. The Daily News remarks on the speech of the Grand Duke of Baden, delivered on a similar occasion, as follows: —lt would be &beard to pretend that the Grand Duke of Baden is an unauthorised exponent of the national will of the German people. The son-in-law of King William cannot be disavowed like the Coastitutiontatl or the Patrie. All the world knows well that this voice from Carlsruhe is the voice of all Germany, North and South. so far as the national unity is concerned. There may be local dis pleasure at Frankfort ; dynastic jealousy at Munich and Stuttgard, political dissidences and angry party spirit here and there, but when the Grand Duke of Baden appeals to the courage, the confidence, end the devotion of his chambers in pro►iding the means of defence against every foreign attack he feels that he is consulting the common %tercets of " the whole German nation." Them is little reason for suspecting the Prussian King of any deep-laid scheme to disturb the peace of Europe, observes the Pod. He would be glad to see the distinction between North and South Germany disappear ; but be knows that such disappearanoe is more likely to be effected by lapse of time than by an appeal to foroe. It is his policy to make it worth the while of Baden and Bavaria and Wurtemberg to throw in their lot with their northeia neighbours ; and in order to effect this end he must show to the world that North Germany is prosperous and power ful and contented. The parliament is now assembled, and the course of legislation mapped out for it is far from In- There are no allusion., says the Telegraph, to foreign politics, consequently nothing that can positively offend the most sensitive opponents of German unity, though sharp critics can hardly overlook the significance of a reserve PO marked. Instead of touching on that delicate ground King William speaks only of internal reforms, a t of which point to peaceful improvement. With the ex ception of the new treaty relative to the Zollverein, not a 'abject is mentioned which can in an; „ o „, e , pro. Vol" ! 7...f;475 1rab1i' " U ' " ! 11 . sue rest of Europe ; and saving that guarded reference to the accession of the South German states, the substance of the address points une quivocally towards peace. The speech of the Grand Due of Baden was, however, the voice of South Germany calling for the unity of the Fatherland in the one form now indicated by the irresistible force of circumstances. COMMISSION. There must be an end, the 7istes remark., of the at- I tempt to represent trade outrages as exceptional incidents of Sheffield life. The Manchester Commindon has been sitting about a week, and yet all such presumptions have been already disposed of. Save that no union secretary has hitherto confessed to the practice of systematic murder, the Stockport brickmakers appear quite u bad as the Sheffield sawgrinders ; indeed in some respects they are worse, and it seems as if the brickmakers generally must have had more direct knowledge of what was going on than Mr. Broadhead's sawgrinders. The distinctive feature of the Manchester inquiry, ac cording to the Herald, is the thoroughness with which each society approved and adopted the vile means em ployed to secure the ends for which trades unions' live, and move, and have their being. Their great object being to raise wages unnaturally, there was no hanging back, no quelmishness, no natural shrinking from expedients worthy of the most cruel and diabolical assassin. Almost inva riably, whether at brick spoiling, tool destroying, infernal machine throwing, fire raising, horse mutilating, or man murdering, the union is in the background, inspiring, di recting, counselling, and defending the authors of these atrocities. The Herald calls for some strong and drastic measure' of legislation for the future repression of an organia►tiou which rivals in its pitilessness, its treachery, and its cruelty the corresponding features of the secret , societies of the middle ages. The Standard now knows for certain that of which it was only morally sure. It has it on the testimony of trade ' union officials , presidents, secretaries, treasurers, members of ' council, and their hired agents that trade unions and trade outrages are as closely allied as cause and effect. ;10 TOPICS. The Daily News concludes an article on the moat recent phase in Americsui i solilics by observ:ng that for nearly three months during the recess there is nobody to control President Johnson, and he seems to be determined to make use of his power. But any who anticipate any ("ther result then a repetition of last year's failure, with results more serious for the county and more disastrous tohimself,have under-estimated the persistency and courage of the Ame rican people. The Times, remarking on the difficulties of the Abyssi• Man expedition says :—No one knows where the King is ; no one can tell whether the captives are with him or with the rebels who have rendered him • fugitive. We have to search for Mr. Cameron and his fellow-prisoner in • country which it is flattering to the few travellers who have visited it to describe as imperfectly known, and which Europeans can only enter at the peril of their lives. It is idle to talk of exacting vengeance from • ruler whom we may never find. We shall only he too happy to record that the prime object of the expedition has been gained, and the captives restored to liberty. After that, the lees we have to do with Theodore or Ms subjects the better. Mr. Edmond Yates has written to the Times deprecating the angrf reception which his unfavourable opinion as to the ments of the 93 Welsh poems submitted to him met with from the meeting at sftrmarthen, and adds that the office of adjudicator had been unsought by him, and only accepted at the earnest request of an old friend, Mr. Brinley Richard'. Mr. Yates also notices the inconsistency of those assembled at the Bieteddled, who, while condemning him for not awarding the prise for poetical composition, decided to re-examine and re-con. eider the award of the prize for a prose tale u po n which he had been requested to adjudicate and did adjudi cate. trite erprelso.

Ir is impossible to read the evidence taken before the Ritual Commission without remark,ig the considerable extent to which this movement is practically changing the polity of the Church of EngLuid. The doctrinal and resthetic aspects of Ritualiam are more obvious to the view, but this incidental consequence is of itself of the first im portance. Nor has it altogether escaped public rotice. It has been reserved for the Ritual;ts to reduce enormously the popular estimate of the power of the Bishops. Belonging themselves to that ecclesiastical party which insists, or at least has hitherto insisted, on Episcopacy as one of the marks of the true Church, they have notwith standing done more to teach their own diocesans the limits of their power than any other of their brethren. The public has observed with astonishment, not to say alarm, how little control a bishop can exercise over a beneficed priest who deliberately sets himself to un-Protestantise Fs parish. We have seen bishops delivering or publishing charges full of reproof of ritualistic extravagance, and di'sting to deputations upon the bighly dangerous character of the movement, and immediately afterwards expressly oonsen.ing to the use of the Ritualistic vestments and the oope, with the use of incense and the processional mess. This utter failure of episcopal authority may be a misfortune, or the contrary ; but it is one of the most conspicuous facts of the day. Perhaps more important, however, than the decay of .;:soopa: prestab • mg is sue ..=c line of the parochial vatem which is steadily going on as one of the con sequences of the development of Ritualism. This fact deserves far more attention than it has hitherto received, and illustrations of it are abun dant in the evidence which accompanies the Report of the Commission. The ri.malisec clergy owe little or nothing to the parochiAl system, and although quite ready to use the prerogatives it gives them under certain circumstances, they have little respect for it when it stands in their way. So far as they feel bound to consult the feelings and veshes of their people—which they may do as a physician measures the capacity of his patient—it is the congregation, not the parish, and, of the congregation, more particularly thosewho are communicants, that he keeps in view. The great body of the parishioners may be either neglecters of public worship or dissenters ; but the communicants at the ritualistic churches are for L tle most part such as the incumoent has edu cated to his own views or attracted from other parishes. - It is of course a condition of this method of management that the funds necessary for provid ing for the sere :ma shall be raised in a form which excludes the intervention of disaffected parties, and the offertory exactly meets the case. At St. Andrew's, Wells-street, the offertory amounted las; year to 2,600/., out of which all the expenses of the church and parish were paid. At St. Bar nabs', Pimlico, it reaches from 1,2001. to 1,3001. a year. The St. Albans offertory last year amounted to more than 2,0001. These gifts are anonymous, and the donors neither enjoy nor expect any oontrol over them. Of course the body of the parishioners could not claim any right to decide how the money should be applied, even if they had the means of doing so ; the funds have not an exclusively parochial origin, because the congregation is not parochial. The Rev. B. WEBB, incumbent of St. Andrew's, Wells street, stated before the Commission that the greater number of his worshippers were non parishioners, although St. Andrew's is a PEEL District church, intended for the benefit of the poor population in which it is placed. It would be easy to show in detail from the evidence, how completely the parochial system is being obliterated where Ritualism has been freely deve loped, and where the parishioners have a choice of churches ; but we will take the direct evi dence of two witnesses on this point. The Rev. W. E. Bs:elem., of Frome, returned the following replies to questions put by the Dean of ELY : Do many of the non-perishioners attend that church in which you minister!—Yea, a greet many. The incumbents of the town have agreed among themselves to permit their people to go to whichever church they please, and there fore many of my people go to their churches, and many of their people come to my church. So that in Frome persons Gan satisfy their own tastes as to the kind of service they will attend 7—Exactly so. But it is with the entire approbation of the other incum bents that they do so 7—Yee. There is no jealousy felt on the part of one incumbent if one of his parishioners goes to another church because ha likes the service better'—No ; that appertains to all the offices of the church amongst ourselves, such as visiting the sick, sad so on. tin Court. BALMORAL, Sm. T. The Queen walked out in the morning, accom panied by Princes@ Christian and Princess Louise, and in the afternoon drove with Princess Louise and Lady Churchill.

Despatches were sent yesterday from the Colonial-office to the Governors of Malta, Ceylon, Hong Kong, Labuan, and the Straits Settlements. THE COURT AT BALMORAL. On Sunday the Queen attended Divine sm.% ioe in the church of Crathio. Her Majesty was moompfulied by their Royal Highnesses Prince and Prinoess Christian, Princess Louise, and P.:noe Leopold, and attended by the ladies and gentlemen of the court—including Lady Churchill, Lady Susan Meh the Hon. Harriet Phipps, Major-General S'r Thomas Biddulph, Lord Stanley, General Hood, Lieutenant-Col. George Gordon, &c. His Excellency M. Van de Weyer, the Belgian Ambass►dor, and Madame Van de Weyer, were also present. The Rev. Donald Macleod, of Linlith gow, preached from John iii., 16 :—" For God so loeed the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whom,. ever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life." The church was very much crowded. THE Pairrcraa or WALES. —lt is with sincere pleasure (says Echoes from the Clubs) that we are enabled to inform our readers that during the last few days her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales has found herself able for the first time since her illness to walk downstairs by the aid of crutches. This must be considered a vest improve ment, when it is remembered that for sevenlong months the Princess has never stint d from a recumbent position. Our correspondents inform us that she has never looked more charming, nor appeared more cheerful and animated than since her arrival at Wiesbaden.

The correspondent of the Sick describes the appearance of Geneva on the arrival of Garibaldi u follow. : " I have seen immense crowds in Paris ; but I never saw such a concourse of people as were assembled before the railway-station in the Rue de Mont Blanc and along the quay. I have more than once seen examples of popular enthusiasm in Paris ; but I never saw anything like the enthusiasm which was manifested yesterday by the population of Geneva, increased as it was by th e inhabitants of the surrounding country. All the large and wealthy houses and hotels in the Rue du Mont Blanc were decor►ted, and elegantly dressed ladies filled the windows, displaying as much enthusiasm as the people in the street. Mont Blanc itself seemed to wish to partici pate in the ovation. A l l the morning the Gitnt o: the Alpe was covered with mist, but ail iue cortege debouched from tl!t 7.1.!!!rt; the um broke forth and radiated him lofty heed with a warm and ray colour. " The correspondent of the Temps says:— The gener►l appeared. We all recognised him at once, though we never saw him before. That mild and captivating coun tenance, those blue eyes full of tender light, that long blonde beard now turning gray, were all familiar to us. When I saw him I thought I recognised in him ono whom I knew formerly, and near whom I lived on terms of filial friendahip. I am not ashamed to confess that my eyes filled with tears, and that a nervous emotion took possession of my whole being. Garibaldi wore the red shit:, over which was • striped grey and black cloak. He had • stick, on which he leaned, and he looked like one of the patriarchs in a biblical painting. When he appeared cries of " Vivo Girl halal," " Viva le General," "Vice " Vive la Liberte," " Vise la Republique"—[it is very consti tutional to raise this cry in the Canton of Vaud) — burst forth from the people. When be got into the carriage some persons shouted " Vive Rome !" The sound caught him, and he rose, replying with the words, " Vive Geneve, la Rome de lintelligence !" Arrived at his hotel, he made a speech, of which the following are the most interesting passages " This is not the first time that I am under • debt of L.:stand. to Geneva for the reception which has been given to me in free Helvetia. In 1848, when we were proscribed and driven from our country by the tyrants it was here on this sacred soil that we found an asylum. lam here to-day for ► different reason. You have invited the repre sentatives of the democracy of the world to assemble here. It is befitting the countrymen of Rousseau and the descendants of Tell to give such an invitation. The reception which you have given me perhaps makes me too bold. Perhaps you think Garibaldi is impertinent in gising his counsels. ("No, no, never.") But I am in the land of liberty, and if I hesitated to speak the truth I should deem it a sacrilege. Geneva had long ago the boldness to attack in front that peetilential institution called the Papacy. (Loud and prolonged cheers.) You are justly proud of having been the first to shake Papal Rome, that centre of idolatry and corruption : you have giver- the first blow to the monster. I ask you to strike it down. Italy is behind your noble country— she has endured three hundred years of slavery, which you have not known. It is, therefore, for us to go to Rome ; and we shall go soon. But I reckon on you to support us in our work, which is yours also. Have I been indiscreet!" (No, no.) THE BOUNDARY COMMISSIONERS AT CHRSTER.— Yesterday Lieut.-Colonel C. G. Gordon, of the Royal Engineers, and Mr. Patrick Cumin, barrister.rat-law, two assistant oommianioners appointed by the boundary com missionen for England and Wales, under the provisions of the Representation of the People Act, ltn7 , attended at the Grosvenor Hotel Assembly Room, Chester, for the of inquiring into the boundaries of the city, with purpose view of ascertaining whether the boundaries should be enlarged, so as to include within the limits of the borough all premises which ought, due regard being had to situation and other local circumstances, to be included therein, for the purpose of conferring upon the occupiers thereof the parliamentary franchise for such borough. Mr. W. H. Gladstone, the Mayor, the Sheriff, and a com mittee from the Town Council attended ; bat the general public did not appear, judging from the attendance, to take much interest in the inquiry. LORD RIDISDALE AND MR. BIDDER.— Lord Redemiale has written a reply to the letter of Mr. Bidder relating to the Dunmow lire. His lordship declares that the statement that p arliament , was asked to confirm the , " illegal agreement ' is untrue ,• and in refgence to Mr. Bidder's wordy "we certainly did not cons Mr. Brassey in naming 80,0001.," he adds that the confession is diagrams. hil, the arrangement with Mr. Brantley having been an open one. CHRIST'S HOSPITAL.-011 Saturday, 21st instant, being St. Matthew's Day, the Lord Mayor, aldermen, and shenffs will proceed in state to Christ Church, Navigate street, where a sermon will be preached by the Rev. 0.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE EASTERN QUESTION. The Independame Beige says that it has learned from a source which inspires it with confidence that the Emperors Napoleon and Francis Joseph came to an agreement at Salzburg to support the Ottoman empire in Europe against Russia in concert with England, to whom overtures were to be made. If M. Beust goes to London, as it is said to be his intention, it may have reference to this subject. (6ILOTE6'B TILLGILLIIIB.) THE PEACE CONGRESS AT GENEVA. GENEVA, Barr. 10, Brame°.

DIIPANIOUP.—The Si/de alt* has sent by post the first volume of its edition of Voltaire, containing the " Philosophical Dictionary," to M. Dupenloup, Bishop of Orleans, with a request that he would read the article on " Toleration." At the recent Catholic Congress at Malian*, the bishop referred to the proposed erection of the statue of Voltaire in the fol- lowing terms:—" A statue to Voltaire! If this be done— and it may be done, for anything is possible—l can only say then that it is a statue to personified infamy." At $ congress of schoolmasters which is being now belt at Vienna, resolutions were adopted in favour of perfect liberty of education and the eurpresdon of ecclesiastical supervision. The absolute separation of the school and the church was proclaimed as a principle which should be upheld by the state. M. Lederer, of Path, proposed to substitute for the old system of the German pedagogues, which comprised the catechism. arithmetic, and writing, the following—the science of God, the science of the world, and the knowledge of lsagat{es. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. THE ABYSSINIAN EXPEDITION. A WONDERFUL OMNIBUS RIDER. (nom an owl owatolDitirr.) PARIS, TUEMDAY EVINING. The King of Prussia's speech was not known during Bourse hours, but is published in th e evening papers. It is quite in accordance with that of the Grand Duke of Baden, which made such a great sensation. He asks for laws which will constitute a " first but decisive step" towards the crowning of the edifice of the federal con stitution. Nothing can be more evident than that he looks to a consummation which the semi-official French journals say France will regard as a cane Belli. It may still be hoped, however, that the French Emperor, despite the continuance of his military preparations, which is a great fact, will ultimately think discretion the better part of valour. The Count du Bisson, an eccentric adventurer of the class of Orllie 1., King of Auracania, and Count Raousset Boulbon, who, since he organised an un successful Abyssinian expedition, looks upon Abys. synia as his special property, and will not suffer anybody to speak about that country without correcting him and telling him that he knows nothing about it, writes a letter to the Patrie, predicting all sorts of ill-luck to the projected English expedition. In the fire place he says the Emperor Theodorus, by his faithful and well-informed spies, knew of the ex pedition long before the London public. He knew the very numbers of the regiments to be sent against him. He knew that 10,000 camels were to be bought, and he rejoiced exceedingly at the news because he knew that the line of march which the English proposed to follow was inaccessible to camels. " The English," he said with great glee, " are fools." He knew that Massowah was selected as the basis of the English operations, and chuckled in the certainty that they could do nothing from that spot. The only practicable line of march, says Count du Bison, would be by Galabat and ' Matamala, but this route would necessitate a march of twenty days through Egypt, which could ' not be permitted unless Egypt were to be come a belligerent party. He is good enough r to say he does not care much about ' the formidable Guedarel ant which has been talked of, because its ravages might be avoided by the simple expedient of drinking no water. He says much of pestilential marshes and mephitic and muddy oceans. He alleges it absurd to suppose that Indian soldiers accustomed to sandy plains and deserts—[he forgets apparently that there are mountains in India]—can get through the Abyssinian defiles. In his mind it is clear that fifteen or even twenty thousand Indian soldiers will never release the prisoners. Moreover, they will never take Theodorus prisoner, because, like Richard 111. on Bosworth field, he has always a dozen of his most valiant warriors dressed up in his uni form. Even if they took or killed him, his son Machechu, " a most warlike, audacious, and intel ligent warrior, the idol of the army," would con tinue his policy. The English may gain " negative victories ;" but in the end, after all the prisoners are massacred, and they have spent two hundred millions of franca, and left ten thousand men a prey to vultures and hyenas, they will have to re embark at Manors ; and the Emperor of Abyssinia, whether Theodorus or his son, will continue to clean his water-closets with the British flag, which Count du Mason assures us he religiously dote every day. I ahmild be sorry to contribute in the slightest degree to underrate the difficulties of the necessary Abyssinian expedition. But although, or perhaps because, Count du Bisaon has been in the country and knows the Emperor Theodore personally, his opinions must be taken with a great many grains of salt. His language is that of a disappointed man whose starting point is that no good can be done in Abyssinia unless ho is employed as an arbi trator. The Moniteur yesterday gave a sensational ac count of a pieuvre—that spongy fish which is the hero of Victor Hugo's last great work—having, in the most cruel manner, pulled to pieces and de voured one of its own species in the aquarium of the Universal Exhibition. To-day the Moniker says the event came off in the aquarium of the Boulevard Montmartre. The correction reduces the anecdote to the proportions of a puff for a private and not much frequented est%blishment. The Moniteur, which publishes regular bulletins of the health of Dr. Veron, says he was very much better yesterday (Sept. 9). Dr. Bayer, an eminent medical man and one of the Emperor's physicians, has just died of apo plexy. . . . . Most of the omnibus conductors in Paris—more especially those on the line from the Barriero du Trone to the Paleis Royal—have been for years familiar with the face of • little old man with a cheerful look, sparkling eye, and grey hair, who literally passed half his life riding in omnibuses. This eccentric individual always got into the first omnibus which left the quarter in which he lived, at 7 o'clock in the morning. He went in the first instance to the Palais Royal, and then somewhere else. He took half an hour for his breakfast and an hour for his dinner. All the rest of the day he passed in omnibuses, and ho always contrived to get a number in time for • seat in the last omnibus from the Paled* Royal to the Trone at midnight. He sat whenever he could in • corner next the door, so that he might talk to the conductor, and betrayed visible vexation when he could not get that place. On getting into an omnibus he always asked for a "Correspondence"—i.e., a ticket entitling the bearer to ride for nothing on some other line, but he very seldom made use of it. His habit was to put the ticket in his waistcoat pocket and pay afresh in the next carriage. Two days ago, after taking his dinner in a third-class rer taurant which he frequented in the Rue Villedo, be asked the waiter to lot him sleep a little, but begged him particularly to wake him in half sn hour, as he had to take the omnibus for Batignollea When the waiter, with the punctuality due to a regular customer, came to wake him, he shook him by the shoulder in vain. The little old gentle man was dead. The doctor called in certified that he had been carried off by an apoplectic stroke. The domicile of so great an omnibus traveller uss easily found. It turned out that he was a native of Nantes, whose head had been turned by his un expectedly coming in to a considerable fortune. He was under the delusion that he was a secret inspector of omnibuses, whose duty is to go about and report the number of passengers, with a nest to discover frauds on the part of conductors. Fifteen hundred omnibus correspondence tickets , carefully sorted and labelled, were found in one 01 his drawers. The Bourse opened with much animation, but became dull for the close . The latest quotat ions are nearly those of yesterday. DROWNED WHILE BATHING.—On Sunday MOM. ing one Thomas Crocker was bathing in the rivet Nit, near Totnes, when he got Out of hisdepth and was drowned.
