THE MUSICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON. This great and flourishing society has adopted the practice of having, in the course of each season, two or three convermaziord— assemblies of the members, subscribers, and invited visitors—for the purpose of conversation and social intercourse, music being introduced occasionally as • part of the evening's entertainment. Last evening there was one of these meetings held at St. James's-hall, which was filled by • numerous company, among whom were many persons distinguished in literature and art. The ball was elegantly fitted up and decorated ; and many cu rious and interesting objects connected with music—picture•, sculptures, curious instruments of different ages and countries, books, and manuscripts —were taste( idly displayed. These were collected and arranged by Messrs. Charles Saks man, W. C. Stockdsle, and Dr. Rimbault. From time to time there were pleasant musical performances. The Messrs. Holmes played • brilliant fantasia for two violins, on Danish airs, accompanied on the piano by Mr. Selman ; Menlo. Bockholtz Falooni performed variations by Hummel on • Tyrolese air; M. Sideman played several of Handel's pieces on a fine old harpsichord of the celebrated maker Shudi ; Madame Guerrabella sang Biletties vales, " Un' ma • Venezia ;" Arthur Napoleon played a fantasia ; and several part-songs of Mendelssohn and Henry Smart were song. All these performances were much and deservedly applauded. These convenazioui are admirable features in the plan of the society, and are productive of peat sad obvious benefit.. Mr. Henry Ladle's Cantata "The Denglite; of the like," ooinpcewl in honour of the marriage of the Princess Alice, was produced at the " Oxford" Music Hell on Tuesday, is commemoration of the august event. THE CHURCH OP ENGLAND AND CONTI- NEATAL PROTESTANTS. Yesterday evening a coneetwrzione, which origi nated in invitations issued by the Archbishops of Canter bury and York and the Bishop of London, took place at Willis's Rooms, and was attended by nearly 300 English and foreign protestants, the object being " to afford foreign pastors and other religious foreigners opportunity to become acquainted with the clergy and such lay members of the Church of England as take a special interest in its affairs." The Bishop of LONDON prefaced the series of addresses by alluding to the public recognition of religion in the special prayer at the opening of the Exhibition, and the service in Westminster Abbey which preceded the recent meeting W the Social Science congress. It had, he then said, been con sidered desirable that advantage should be taken of the presence of so m►ny foreigners in London for Christian eon fereoce, and that meeting had been called to enable foreign pastors to give British Christians the benefit of their expo nonce, and to explain the state of religion in their respec tive countries. M. le Pasteur NAPOLEON ROUSSEL, of Cannes, a minister of the reformed church of France, then made some remarks on the state of religion in the south of that kingdom. There was, be said, a general belief in the existence of God. but everything beyond was, with a large part of the population, • " perhaps ;" there was nothing like solid faith. A ge oeral spirit of inquiry bad, however, recently manifested itself, and protestant literature was much valued. What he sod his co-religionists w►nted was, not to Net up a par ticular form of church, but to evangelise the nation. U. Mott; pastor of the Waldensian church at Turin, dwelt on the necessity of establishing It►lian unity, and expressed his deep appreciation of the libeity of preaching the Gospel which had resulted from recent political events, cortrasting this in powerful language with the painful silence so long imposed by despotism. M. Roorroe, pastor, at Paris, of the Reformed Church of France, sod Y. Schmidt, pastor of the canton of Thurgovie, Switserland, followed ; and the proceedings were terminated by some appropriate remarks from the Bishop of Win chester. New PULPIT IN Wisrmitorzz ABBEY. —A very beautiful pulpit is being erected in Westminster Abbey. Its position is on the north of the nave. The pulpit, which is octagonal in shape, is composed of carved yellow Mans field stone and coloured marble, and is a mixture of the early Eogliah and French styles. The body of the work is divided into compartmenta inlaid with diamond-shaped panels, containing circular ornaments inlaid with various coloured marbles. Six finely carved figures, representing St. Peter, St. Pail, and the four Evangelista, are placed at the &ogles dividing the panels, the centre panel cootaiuing an exquisitely-cut medallion portrait of the Saviour in white marble, and crowned with thorns. The pulpit is supported by coloured marble pillars, and is approached by a flight of atoms steps, with coloured marble and stone belustrades. The whole of the details of this elegant work are richly carved, end the work fosse a noble adilition to the cathedral. The architect is Mr. G. O. Bert, and the sculptor Mr. Farmer. RAILWAY MID PUBLIC COMPANIES IN PARLlA mire.—Taltarday, in Lord Lyveden's committee, the bill of the Want Midland, after evidence in opposition had been tendered by Sir T. Phillips and Mr. Davidson, was passed, giving them at the rme time running powers over the lines of the Monmouthshire Railway. The committee meet again to day to consider sad settle the clauses. The satire car of the opposition to the lag Gloucestershire Railway was con cluded by Mr. Calvert, Q,C. and Mr. Cripps, in the Duke of Richmond's committee, and Mr. Hops Scott will reply on the whole case to-day, when the committee are expected to give their decides. The opposition on behalf oldie North Sniff ordshire Railway occupied the committee of which Lord Wodehouss is chairman all day against the Stafford and Uttoreter Railway.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. Yesterday being the last day of the cattle show, the counter attraction interfered a good deal with the attendance at the Exhibition. It was still, however, very considerable, and would have been considered monstrous anywhere but at South Kensington. At Mr. Hancock's case, the ex citement was aggravated by a visit from the Crown Prince of Prussia. Whilst his royal highness was. being shown the various precious contents of the case, the crowd closed in, and so anxious was one old lady to see both the Prince and the diamonds, that in pushing forward she dipped and went down, suffering a rather considerable abrasion of the nose as the penalty of her curiosity. Amongst the visitors yesterday were the whole of the operatives from Mr. Forster's (M.P.) factory at Greenholme, in Yorkshire. This most respect able body of working men were brought to the Exhibition by the honourable member himself, and, in addition to being taken round the sights, were also provided at his expense with refreshments. Another large detachment were the pupils of Queen Elizabeth's School, In the Borough, who came aco di on i x=y ve teg) u, and made their "Anita propriate and exceedingly well played mule. ife also observed a large body of volunteers, which, we were informed ? were the 29th York (North Riding), who having inspected the Exhibition, formed in military order outside, and marched off amid the cheers of the people, who now regularly assemble each evening in Exhibition-road iu crowds to watch the company going away and struggling for cab and omnibus accommod►tion. An addition was made in the course of the day to the Exhibition library in the shape of ten copies of the Royal Blue Book presented by Messrs. Gardiner and Son, and one of which was specially intended for the use of the press. The only other literary event was the promulgation of the International Directory, from which the public will be glad to learn that two such efficient and experienced men as Mr. R. A. Thompson and Mr. P. C. Owen are now regularly installed as assistant managers. Besides the Crown Prince of Prussia, the list of distinguished visitors included Prince Napoleon and the Grand Ducal Family of Hesse, the latter being conducted round the foreign department by Mr. Owen. The following is the official return of the number of visitors yesterday:—By season tickets, 7,369 ; by payment, 47,127 ; total, 54,496. ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. The third great flower show of the Royal Horti cultural Society was held yesterday in the conservatory and arcades of the garden, and also in pavilions in front. The weather was unusually favourable, and the company numerous and fashionable. The show consisted of the flowers and fruits of the season, to which were added some exotic plants of great rarity and beauty. The roses. although small in quantity, were of very superior quality an d fragrance, and the fuchsias of surpassing beauty. The speciness exhibited yesterday were conspicuous for their great symmetry of form, a point which has long been se desideratum with horticulturista, and the general opinion was that the success of the day's show would re store this beautiful flower to all its former favour. The pelargoniums were remarkably fine and in great abundance, including several new and striking varieties. Of the fruit it would be impossible to speak too highly. The peaches, nectarines, grapes, and strawberries were all and each s uperb. A curiosity in this class, the idea of which we owe to the Chinese, consisted of the miniature peach, nee. Urine, and plum trees exhibited by Lane and Son, which were small enough to form ornaments, with the ripe fruit growing, for the dinner table. The exhibition was visited by the Prince and Prin cess Charles of Hesse, Princes Henry and William and Princess Anna, attended by the following members of the council: Sir Wectworth Dille, Mr. Shindy, Mr. Wilson Saunders, Mr. Pownall, Mr. Godson, Mr. Clutton, Mr. Volta, Mr. Cooper, Mr. Lee, and Mr. Fleury. The same members of the council had also the honour, at a subse quent period of the day, of attending Prince Napoleon and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge. The bands of the Royal Artillery and Royal Marines performed several popular pieces of music in the course of the after noon. NAVAL A!'D MILITARY. Ammuarr, JIILY 2. AiiiOiarrtsirrs. Com - Ini A.

OPENING OP THE SOLDIERS' INSTITUTE, OR CLUB-HOUSE, ST CHATHAM. CHATHAM, WEDNiaDAT NIGHT. The handsome range of buildings erected at a cost of nearly 6,0001. for the purposes of a club-boos, or institute fur the use of the troops in garrison having bees completed, were opened this evening with consideralge Edit. The building was commenced rather man than a twelve. month since, and originated in • sum of 2,0001. given by the government, at the instigation of Lord Herbert, towards the foundation of such an institutioa. To that sum other contnbutiuns from private individuals were added, until an amount sufficiently imp was realised, and the strnotitre oummenoed. The building is an exceedingly handsome citifies, and will serve as a model to similar erections which it is intended to raise at all oar large military Ltatioaa It consists of lofty and commodious lecture, reading, sod concert rooms, together with library, smoking. rooms, and a cuisine, where every kind of edible may be obtained of the best description, at cat prise. The cow mitt.), of management, under the sanction of the Doke of Cambridge, have wisely refused to allow the sale of intoxi natio' liquors in the institute. The opening ceremony took piece this evening, on which occasion the building was crowded with troops, there being also a large number of officers and ladies prang. The entire subscription of membership is one penny per week. THE GREAT NATIONAL RIFLE CONTEST. ' The volunteers who had spent the night in camp found day dawning yesterday, as on Tuesday, with • dull and lowering aspect—a somewhat rough and windy night having caused a constant flapping of canvas over their heads, and • rude and blustering assault upon their ears, altogether unlike the experience of foitber-bede at home, rte from the disturbing influence of wind and weather. Nevertheless, they were awake with the lark ; and when the was sounded at half-pest six, every man was speedily up and doing in conformity with re gulations established for the purpose of giving to this holiday demonstration as much as passible of the aspect of actual military life. Thus at 10 p.m. tattoo is sounded; and thereupon the captain and subalterns on duty mount guard, with au in-lying piquet of 20 men, who are expected to hold themselves in readiness for any a l arm—whether of fire or invasion—that may rime during the night ; while at eleven o'clock the same officers make the round of the camp, to see that all is quiet, and prevent any who might be so inclined from disturbing the rest of others by unseasonable and unsoldierlike festive eeletwationa. At 6 a.m. comes the reran ; at 7.15 parade without arms ; after that breakfast. _ _ _ At half•pastmne yesterday the signal gun was fired, and the great race of competition for prizes was fairly ogV n i and Captain St. John Mildmay, Captain Page, Bowes, and the other officials, were at ones ou the alert, and were kept so by the exacting circumstances surnattoding them throughout the day. The attendance of volunteers was naturally rather more numerous than on Tuesday, but the number of uninterested, or rather unprofessional spec tators, was exceedingly limited. The firing of the signal gun was followed by an imme diate commencement of the competition for some of the I principal prizes of the meeting, different butts being ap• p o i n t e d, not only to particular contests, but also to various parties engaged in the same contest— ..long range and short range matches proceeding simultaneously, so as to effect that economy of time which the multitude of competitors—in the case of the Queen's Prize exceeding I,loB—makes an absolute aecesity. With imperil to the targets themselves it is ss well to add a few words by way of explanation. Three at '5)O yards range are 6 feet by 4 feet, with an 8-inch square bull's-eye, and a 2 feet square centre ; those at 500 and 600 yards are $ feet by 6 feet, with a 2 feet square and a 4 feet square centre ; while thaw at 800, 900, and 1,000 yards are 12 feet by 6 feet, with a 3 feet square bull's-eye and a 6 feet square centre. When a bull's-eye is hit a red and white flag shows that three points are scored; when a centre is hit, • blue Nag gives two points to th e marks man; and when an " outer," or outside centre is made, • white flag is displayed, and one point is added to the score. It will be observed that the size of the target, bull's eye, and centres increases proportionately with the length of range, from 200 yards to 1,000 yards, the number of points scored for each corresponding hit being the same at all ranges. The respective competitions entered upon at the com mencement of proceedings yesterday were—The Queen's Prize, first stage ; the " All Comers ;" the Association Cup; and some " Extra Prices." The first series of these are open to any rifle under 10Iba., with a Swiss target, at 81.10 yards, the prises consisting of a gold watch, given by Mr. Bennett, value 401. ; a Kerr rile, given by the London Armoury Company, value lb guineas ; a field glass, given by Messrs. Burrow, value 71„; ditto, by Messrs.

Calisher and Terry,lsl. ; field glans, given I.y MOMS. Bur. row, of Great Malvern, 71. 75. ; and two engravings, given by Mr. Gale Brown, 10/. 10s. each. In addition to this prize competition, which was carried on briskly throughout the day, there was the usual run of pool shooting ; but the "deer target" was not pmainted to run, in consequence of Tuesday's accidents. It will, however, probably resume its career to-day, proper precautions having mean while been taken to place the men in charge out of harm's way from the glancing bullets. The firing to-day will be merely • continuation of the competition conu:uenoed yes terday, for the Queen's and other prizes, with the ezosp- Doc that the " All Comers" will be limited to the interval between 9.30 s.m. and 1.30 p.m. ; the competition after three o'clock (when the time allowed for luncheon termi nates) being reserved for membeis of the association only. As to the first stags of her Majesty's prise, on which the firing will probably extend over to-morrow, it is as well to explain that each competitor is entitled to five shots at the Xl, 500, and 600-yards ranges respectively, but if he fails to make nine shots (out of 18 possible points and hits included) at the 200 and 600. yards ranges, he will be excluded from the competition at the 600. yards nose ; and of course, from the long range, or eccoud and final stage for this the great prize of the contest for the present year. It should also be stated that the 28 leading shot/ at these ranges will be entitled to receive Enfield rifles, each valued at 25/., and that the 20 next best will be entitled to join in the second stage of competition for the Queen's Prize, .and that to these 40 that competition will be restricted. The result of the competition far the Queen's Prize, so far se it programed yesterday, vise the name of Hays, 37th Mi4dlaeat as having made 18 points, and the following as Davies made 16 points at 200 yards, out of 20 points pos sible, viz., Duncan., Ist Cheshire ; Hudgkinson, 15th ditto, Fitzpatrick, 4th Devon Artillery; Scott, 7th Dlioburgh ,• Murdock, 13th ditto ; Ferguson, I s t Inverness ; Sprott, 2nd Lenauhire ; Idahoan, 4th Leicester ; Seymour, Ist Queen's, Westminster; Morrison, 6th Renfrew; Phillips, Ist Shrop shire, and thirporiel, 4th Surrey.

AN APPEAL TO "ANONYM A." The following letter appears in the Times : " Early in the season of 1861, a young lady, whom I must call Anonyraa, for I have never been able to learn her name, made her appearance in Hyde-park. She was • charming creature, beautifully dressed, and the drove with ease and spirit two of the handsomest brown ponies eye ever beheld. Nobody in society had seen her before; no body in society knew her name, or to whom she belonged ; but there she was—prettier, better dressed, sod sitting more gracefully is her carriage than any of the fine ladies who envied her her looks, her skill, or her equipage. A good many young geutlemen seemed to be acquainted with her, but their recognition was generally limited to a respectful bow as she passed by, or to • few friendly wads slily interchanged on the step of her pony-carriage when she drew up in some remote corner of the park. Anouyina seemed at drat to be rather a shy damsel. She is somewhat bolder now. Last year she avoided crowds, and affected unfrequented roads, where she could more freely exhibit her ponies' marvellous action, and talk to her male acquaintances with becoming privacy. When all the fashionable world were sauntering on foot, on horseback, and JO carriages along the Ladies' Mile by the side of the Serpentine, Anonyms used to betake herself to the deserted thoroughfare leading from Apeley House to Kensington. But, as the fame of her beauty and equipage spread, this privacy became impossible to her. The fashionable world eagerly migrated iu beach of her from the Ladies' Mile to the Kensington-road. The highest ladies in the land enlisted themselves as her disciples. Driving became the rage. Three, four, rive, six hundred guineas were freely given for pain of ponies, on the simple condition that they should be as handsome as Anonyna's, that they should show as much breeding sa Anonyma's, that they should step as high as Anonyms's. If she wore • pork-pie hat, they wore pork-pie hats ;if her paletot was made by Poole, their paletots were made by Poole; if she reverted to more feminine attire, they reverted to it also. Where she drove, they followed ; and I must con fess that, as yet, Anonym* ban fairly distanced her fair competitors. They can none of them sit, dress, drive, or look as well as she does ; nor can any of them procure for money such ponies as Anooyma contrives to get—for love. But the result of all this pretty play causes • great public nuisance, and it is on that account, and not at all on account of my admiration for Anonyms and her stepping ponies, that I now address you. I have mid that up to the beginning of last year the fashionable world chiefly affected the Ladies Mile in the perk, and that the thoroughfare from Apsley House to Kensington was com paratively in.frequented, Nave by Aoonyma. But this year, when that road is more especially required to be kept open for the convenience of visitors to the Exhi bition, it is daily choked with fashionable carriages— from live to seven—all on account of Anonyms.. Chairs are placed along it on either side ; the best parhe that England knows, the toadies that cling to them, the snobs who copy them—all sit there, watching for Anonyms. About 6 p.m. • rumour arises that Anonyms is coming. Expectation is raised to its highest pitch ; a handsome woman drives rapidly by in a carriage drawn by thoroughbred ponies of surpaasing shape and action ; the driver is attired in the pork-piu hat and the Poole paletot introduced by Anonyms ; but, alas! she causes no effect at all, for she is not Anonyma ; she is only the Duchess of A—, the Marchioness of B—, the Countess of C—, ce some other of Anonyma's many eager imitators. The crowd, disappointed, repeat themselves and wait. Another posy carriage succeeds—sod another—with the same depress ing result. At Let their patience is rewarded. Anonyms, and her ponies appear, and they &reunified. She threads her way dexterously, with an unconscious air, through the throng, commented on by hundreds who Wanks and hundreds who envy her. She pulls up her ponies to speak to ea acquaintance, and her airtime is instantly surrounded by a multitude ; she turns and drives back again towards Ansley House, and then—away into the unknown world, nobody brows whither. Meantime, thousands returning from the Exhibition are ietolerably delayed by the crowd collected to gate on this pretty creature and her pretty ponies, and the efforts of Sir Richard Mayne and his police to keep the thoroughfare open are utterly frustrated. Could not you, sir, whose Musson It ie to Maim everyibiag and every body, and who, powsbly, therefore, may know Anonyms herself, prevail on her to drive in some other portion of the park as long as the Exhibition lasts? If the will but consent to do this, the fashionable crowd will certainly follow her, and the road to the Exhibit's* will be set free fee Ike ens of the public." [Stamped. Id.

The Servian government has sent an address to Constantinople, expressing its loyalty to the Turkish government. The negotiations with the Turkish commissioners are not allowed to twans pire. The Servian National Guard has been dis banded. AMERICA. The New York Herald professes to have been furnished by an intelligent Union refugee with im portant and interesting information of affairs in Richmond, from which place he made his escape a few days previously. He states that Since the appointment of General Lee as Goosed in Chief, nearly the whole army has been concentrated near Richmond, even recalling some mimesis sent againedGeoe ral Burnside. The Coescriptioa Act is rigidly enforced, the conscripts being placed in the ranks of old regiments in the field. Jeff. Davis is hated by the army as a stubborn **S willed tyrant, and Beaurepud has lost prestige, though they still hold to the delusion of a rebel victory at Shiloh. Correspondents are excluded from all the camps, and the soldiers are not allowed to write to their friends. The Southern papers praise the explo 4 te of the guerillas, especially the fact of their not taking any prisoners. It these guerillas capture any Northern troops they are led into the woods, a few shots are beard, and the statement made that the Yankees were roiled. There are from 4UO to 500 persons in prison in Richmond charged with disloyalty to the South. The tepees are daily growing more open in insubordination, and the burning of the city is by some considered certain. While the rebels estimate their army round Richmond at 180,000 men, it cannot amount to less than 150,000. This army, though largely made up of 000 scripts, is well died plined and effective, and has unbounded confidence in General Joseph Johnson. The rebel soldiers still believe that the tide will be turned against General bl'Cbillan, and then the war will be carried across the Potomac into Maryland and the North. The army of Johnson is constantly receiving reinforce. menu, and be expects to hold our army in check until the impatience of England and France in reference to Southern cotton and tobacco shall result in bringing those nations to the rescue. The rebels still cling to the delusion that their armies have only temporarily abandoned such places es New Orleans, Norfolk, Nashville, end Memphis. The rebel leaders are fully awes% however, that all their decep tions of military strategy will be expceed with the Ices of Richmond, and hence their desperate efforts and labours to hold it. They cannot explain their retreat from a crushing defeat at Richmond to the satisfaction of their deluded follower'. A Washington despatch of the 19th says :—" Sur geon-General Hammond has within the past five days provided 15,000 beds for the sick and wounded in hospitals here and in Northern cities." The editorial correspondence of the New York Times says that General 51`Clellan bad been labour ing under indisposition more or less severe for several days. He was much better, however, and was indefatigable in his attention to the details of official duty. The fact appears to be well established that yellow fever had not made its appearance in New Orleans at the latest advicee, June 10. The deaths in the city during the first week in June were 122, not an unusual number. The American consul at savannah having, how ever, informed General Butler that yellow feverhad made its appearance among the shipping at that place, General Butler has established a regular and effective quarantine. Wm. B. Mumford, who had been convicted of tearing down the Union flag from the Mint at New Orleans, was executed on June 8. The effect of the execution was profound. On the 6th June, General Lovell sent a flag of truce toNewOrleans, stating that he was instructed by the President of the Confederate States to say that he had heard Mr. W. Van Bentheysen, a citizen of New Orleans, had been arrested and was to be hanged for aiding the escape of a spy. If this was so, the President of the Confederate States informed General Butler that he should inflict the same punishment of death upon a citizen of the United States in retaliation. In reply, General Butler stated that the informa tion received by Mr. Davis was incorrect, and. Mr. Van Bentheysem was pursuing his ordinary avocations in New Orleans, having been released some time since on wole. General Butler closed his note to General Lovell with the following re marks : To prevent the iteosasity of flags of truce containing threats to me, hereafter, allow me to add that in no degree will they change the course either of punishment or of justice which my judgment may determine. With respect to the attack on Charleston the Boston Traveller says : • - • - • - - • We have received a private note from our oorrespoodeat at Port Royal, in which he states that the effective Federal force engaged in the attack upon Charleston does not exceed 5,000 or 6,000 men. Notwithstanding the large numbers opposed to them, our troops have fought with great bravery, and in every engagement have put to flight superior num bers. There is, however, a loud call upon the government to send forward reinforcements, which are much needed to garrison Port Royal and other Pointe. With the reinforce ments which the enemy have undoubtedly been able to send to Charleston, we should consider Genera Hunter's army in a very dangerous sitnatioo, were it uot for his gunboats. These having entire command of the water passages around the islands, will doubtless be able to protect him until be has a sufficient army to attack the nit/. The reported surrender of Fort Morgan, near Baton Rouge, was premature. The power of de fence seems to have been greater than bad been an ticipated. Both the gunboats and the flotilla bad had hard work, while a severe land engagement had been reported. The Provost Marshal General of Missouri bad issued an order instructing the Provost Marshal of St. Louis to cause all persons in the city suspected of disloyalty or sympathy with the rebels to take the oath of allegiance to the United States government ; and that all persons known to be disloyal shall be required to give bonds for their observance of the oath. The Marshal also directs the arrest of all persons guilty of disloyal conduct, whether such consists of acts, or knowledge of the acts of others. Mx-Senator Pierre 801114 and Sheriff Mazentn, of New Orleans, reached New York on the 19th, and were forthwith placed in Fort Lafayette as poli tical prisoners.

Yesterday was the third day of the gathering of ohms celebritses, and was even more interesting than its predetermine. The moms at St. Jamois•hall in which the vagrant holds its sittings was thronged all day, as extra Charm being lent to the proceedings by the attesdases of some of the fair sex who watched the various pass with serious attention. We need not furnish the names of the =Kr pennies prese nt, emorw as orastho or i they consisted , addi ; Lord the same players who were mentioned in our last report. The business of the day did not commence until a late hour, io conesquenee partly of the of bringing together the ten gentlemen who ware to contend against Herr Paulsen, and partly, perhaps, because of the tattoos of the previous sitting. Up to this time the emigres@ has been • most satisfactory one, and the play hes proved on the whole most excellent. In the grand tournament between 14 of the bed players the first prime is 1001., and day by day, as snob of the 14 entered has to contend with all the others before the prise can be won, each competitor makes an effort towards coon him own series. Thus it happens that besides the shins eature of the day there are always transpiring many particulars of importance, each of which bears • certain rela tion to the peat contest of the week. The names of the payers sad their present score are as follows :—Of the 13 Andaman has woo 10 and lost 1, the latter to the games, Andaman Owen ; Mr. Barnes has won 2 and lost 4 ; Mr. Blackburn has woo 3 and lost 4 ; Mr. Demon has woo 3 and kart 3 ; Mr. Dubois has wan 1; Mr. V.

The peas of yesterday wen three oaly is this tonrameent, whereof Mr. Baas lost to Y. Dubois, Mr. Blackburn. lost to Mr. Bobey, and this Rev. J. Owen and Mr. Mougrodieu played a second drawn pmei. 1110 last was an arduous struggle, similar in many respects to that in which these same gentlemen engaged previously. The opening was • "close one," and the play on both sides a • very cautious character. The contest continued until near midnight, when Mr. Moogrsdien appeared to have a slight advantage ; but the lateness of the hour precluded it. being finished, and the game was drawn by mutual consent. Th. match between Mr. Barnes and Signor Dubois de serve. • few words of notice. Two genies were played. The first the drawn Mr. Barnes adopting the Sicilian defence. In the wood game Mr. Barnes played the Roy Lopes attack on his opponent, bat Dot sucomsfully, for after • pan of great beauty Signor Dubois pined a victory . . Bo th games were remarkable for their brilliancy, and it is to be observed that so quickly were the moves made that the two pines occupied lea than four hours. The only other game played by Signor Dubois in the toureameut was with Mr. Meacham, and terminated in a draw. Yesterday's most remediable feature, however, was, as we have intimated, Mr. Paulsen's " blindfold play." Ha thus opposed simultaneously ten different players of so mean sweaty, with regalia which, under the circumstances, to a casual bystander as little short of the miraculous. iar Although called blindfold play, it was so in spirit rather in later. This celebrated chess player, who, at such odds, challenged so many to try their skill against bin simultaneously, eat in • corner with his face to the well, looking very much like an overgrown schoolboy who was widowing • penalty. Hour after hour there he sat pondering over the positions of his ten armies of chessmen, uttering mystic orders to Herr Lowenthal, the secretary, in regard to the various moves, and no doubt noting minutely every knot in the polished wainseoting before him, or associating the figures on the Wall in some undefined manner with the pines he was con daring. His opponent. were as follows 1. Sir John Blonde°, Bart. 2.. L Heathcote, Esq. 3. 1. Heathcote, lUD., Req. 4. A. G. Puller, kw'. fr. Rev. D. Salter. 6. Charles Pearson, Fag. 7. Captain Kennedy. 8. The Chevalier de St. Bon. 9. G. Maude, Eq. 10. H. T. Primer., Esq. The play commenced soon after 2 o'clock. Mr. Mande was the lira to Mire from the contest, resigning his pus at the fifteenth move. About 6 o'clock Mr. Pearson succeeded in gaining • victory, but Herr Pathos tom recovered by overthrowing the Chevalier de St. Boa The chevalier played the opening known as " the Calabrese," but unfortunately made a move out of its pro- per order, which, although not what might he reckoned exactly a mistake, subjected him from the outset to all the inconveniences of a cramped position ; otherwise • far prettier game might have been expected from es brilliant • player. Herr Paulasa woo this genie very cleverly, and his *deanery resigned at half-past 7. In the gams with Mr. POMP' the latter played quite an "irregular opening,* adopting la reply to his opponent's P to K 4 his K Kt to 83. la this au instance of the difficulty of blindfold games roc for Paulsen fancying his rook was attacked moved it away, leaving his quceu en prise for nothing. In • few more moves Herr Paulsen was compelled to resign to • player whom Herr 4nderssen had only the day before beaten, after having given him a knight. Mr. Pearson is Doted face system of notation which he invented some year. ago, bat which was not so well received as some treatises on the game which he published at the one time. At eight o'clock Paulsen was again • victor, amid the plaudit. of the esnendely. Mr. Hathoote, sen.'s position had by this time become tiotenabla, and he therefore resigned. It should be observed that Mr. Heathcote was himself compelled to leave about the 20th move, and his place was supplied by Mr. Belated, who however played only four moves before the name concluded. Sir John Blundell was the next who succumbed, and by this tame it became generally anticipated that Hem Paulsen would conquer in the majority of the games. Mr. Puller's game was drawn at half-past 10, after a remarkably fine contest. The Rev. Mr. Salter resigned at bs/f-past 11. The other games were not concluded until a late hour. The whole of the prom:dins pained off to the attire satisfaction of the numerous assembly who through. out the day thronged the ball.
