MUSIC. MUSICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON. This society's fourth concert took place last evening at St. Janteds-ball. It was the lest of the aociety's fourth season, which it brought to a brilliant does. The following was the programme of the performance: PART L Overture tAthalie). Mendelamohe.

Overture (Oberon) This was an excellent 'election ; but, with the exception of Mr. Silas's overture and the air from Gounod's Faust, it presented nothing but what was familiar to the musical public. Aod it was ell the better on this account ; for, as we have often said, in the present dearth of ineative genius in music, the production of new pieces only excludes much superior works of an older day. In this respect the practice of this new societyis better than the plan.which at the outset they announced their intention to adopt. Experience has given ► lesson, however, which they have done well to profit by. The chief features of this concert were Beethoven's Violin Concerto, played by Joachim. It is the greatest work of its class in existenoe, and Joachim per forms it in • manner which probably has never been equalled. Last night, with the exquisite beauty of his execution, and the delicate manner in which it was accom panied by the band, it afforded a gratification which nothing, we think, in the whole art of music could surfer ; and so the audience, from the vehemence of their applause, seemed to feel. Spohr's symphony in C minor, though not that great master's (lief dam ere, is nevertheless • fine work, sad received great justice from the orchestra and their able andootor, Mr. Mellon. Mr. Silas's overture to Don Quixote is a composition of much merit, skilfully written, and in some pails very effective. But it is too laboured, and the composer has tried too much to produce effect by an accumulation of loud instrumentatioo. A larger portion of simple melody, and • more sparing use of the trombone and the ophicleide would have been more advantageous. It was exceedingly well performed, and received with considerable applause. Herr Wachtel, whose sucoessfal debut at Covent-garden we have afouly mentioned, was unfortunately labouring under a severe cold (on which account the indulgence of the audience was requested on his behalf), and the beauty of his fine moor voice was much impaired ; but he sang Mozart's beautiful air like • true artist. M. Gounod's air is in that ultra French style which pleases at the Opha Comique, but is too redolent of the boulevards to snit Eoglish taste. It was sung, never theless, by Madame LammeneSherriogton with such brilliant execution and vivacity of manner that it was well received, though not with the applause which this charming singe r wor'd have gained had she made • better choice. We need scarcely add that the hall was crowded to the doors, for this is always the case at the concerts of a society whose member" and associates are sufficient of themsel►es to form • large audience. HORTICULTUALL SOCIETY. The second grand flower show of the season took placeyesterday, in the Society's gardens, under much more favourable auspices, as regarded weather, than the previous show. The show consisted of the usual collections of greenhouse plants, orchids, azaleas, roses in pots, Cape heaths, &c. Pelargo- niums were here adequately represented, and there appeared to be, generally speaking, the greatest abundance and variety of all the products of scien tific gardening. The fruit was a splendid show, and was so crowded as to be nearly unapproach able during the greatest portion of the day. Some black Hamburg grapes, which had been grown on the roof of a house in Mount-street, attracted very considerable notice. The company began to arrive at a little after three o'clock, and continued to pour in until five o'clock, when every corner of the gardens was crowded. Before five o'clock up wards of 10,000 visitors had passed the turnstiles. We were glad to perceive that the long-protracted works of the garden seemed at last to be approach ing completion. The walks and parterres seem now to be finished, and their effect is much improved by the presence of water, which flows in abundance from the various fountains. The equestrian statue of Carlo Alberto, which, our readers will recollect, was inaugurated at Turin in July of last year, is now uncovered, and takes considerably from the hitherto empty look of the garden. The King is supposed to be start ing for the Italian campaign, and is supported at the pedestal by allegorical groups and Istatues of Piedmontese soldiers. The recent severe criticism on the works of Baron Marochetti gives great additional interest to this group, and yes terday caused it to be very much surrounded and scrutinised. Amongst the visitors were the Royal Princesses, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, Marchioness of Kildare, Lady Con stance Grosvenor, Lady Dorothy Nevill, Sir Went worth Dilke, Lord and Lady Ducie, Bishop of Winchester, Duke of Buocleuch, Sir Joseph Paz ton, Lord H. Lennox, the Countess de Mornay, &c. Sir Wentworth Dilke, one of the vice-presidents of the society, having this year again offered wises for the decoration of the dinner table with flowers and fruit, so numerous were the competitors (46 in all? and so nearly equal were the various groups in pant of merit, that the judges—Lady Constance Grosvenor, the Marchioness of Ki'dare, and Lady Dorothy Nevill, assisted 10 , Professor Westma cott, R A., acting as secretary—had great difficulty in awarding the prizes. The following were, how ever, at last declared to be the successful com petitors :—First Prize, Mrs, W. Thompson ; Second ins, Mrs. H. Pickering ; Third Prize, Mrs. Fawcett. Commended : Mira Veitch, Mrs. A. Salter, and Mrs. J. H. Lermitte. Three military bands attended and played at intervals during the afternoon.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. The uncertainty of the weather acted yesterday rather unfavourably on the fortunes of the Exhibi tion, although the attendanoe would have been considered enormous in any other place of public resort The company exhibited a mixture of ill classes, but working people again predominated, and again were seen to devote their attention mainly to useful articles and ingenious mechanical inventions. The machinery in motion department, the Process Court, and the eastern annex, were densely thronged, whilst the nave and central oourts seemed to be reserved for the afternoon promenade. An immense number also found their way to the picture galleries, but the Italian sculptures did not seem to obtain much attention. Nothing in the building attracts greater crowds than the wondrous sewing machines, which, however, seem to be looked at with something of a hostile feeling, the matrons especially expressing much indignation at seeing male seamstresses manipulating this inge nious substitute for the needle. The Princesses Alice and Beatrice were early visitors. They were attended by Sir Wentworth Dilke, and gave the French court a lengthened in spection. Theirßoyal Highnesses afterwardsdevoted some moments to an examination of Benson's clock, and finally took refreshment in the English depart ment. The Pacha of Egypt also paid an early visit, and spent a considerable time in the picture gal leries. There was a good deal of music in various parts of the building, and each instrument was surrounded by a numerous audience. The epidemic amongst the turnstiles has again set in with•very much aggravated symptoms. Some of them turn round too often, some won't turn at all, and others again have such short arms as to allow the most capacious crinoline to pan without touching. The consequence is that there is daily discrepancy between the returns and the money • but as it is always in favour of the latter, there can be no charge made against the honesty of the money-takers. In some eases money has been handed in for 600 persons in one day beyond the returns, and sums from six to thirty pounds are constantly overpaid. It seems strange that in a building consecrated to the in genuity of the whole world means could not be found to make perfect a contrivance which for half a century has been in use at our bridges and public places. We believe that at last the matter has been put into proper hands, and that by next wee'c means of obtaining correct returns will have been secured. A great many complaints have been made to us of the inattention of the English jurors in several departments. The foreign jurors who have been sent over at the expense of their respective govern ments, and who expect to be rewarded and deco rated on their return, are indefatigable, and of course take care of the exhibits of their countrymen ; but the English jurors, who are merely honorary, attend but seldom, and in insufficient numbers, and the consequence is that the few who are present when the question of medals is put to the vote are con stantly outvoted. lu the philosophical department, fur instance, we are told that two of the most eminent men of science we have, namely, Professor Wheatstone and Sir David Brewster, have never once attended, and that the duty of looking after English instrument-makers has devolved entirely on Messrs. Brookes, Glaisher, and Colonel Lestrange. Of the foreign jurors five is the minimum attendance, so that the ad vocates of English interests are always in the minority. We do not mean of course to insinuate that the eminent men who have come over from Paris, Berlin, and Turin to act as jurors would give any decision contrary to their convic tions, but national partialities are sometimes very strong, and "it is not enough that Caesar's wife should be virtuous, but that all the world should think her so." If the decisions should be as im partials' the decrees of Miuos, the English exhibitors will not think they have been fairly dealt with iu the too frequent absence of their own jurors. Mtawrs. Ransome and Sims have bad an application front the Commissioners of the International Exhi bition to lend them a second engine to drive Armstrong's machinery in the Western Annex, in lieu of another engine which Las broken down. This is the second they have had, by request, to replace—a high compliment. The official return of the number of visitors is as follows :—By season tickets, 8,171; by payment, 44,519; total, 52,690.

A conservative demonstration took place at Mal don on Tuesday night, on the occasion of the anniversary of the Maldon Conservative Club. The proceedings took die form of • dinner, to which about 120 gentlemen sat down. Mr. W. M. Tortram, (in the absence through is dalmatian of Mr. J. W. Perry-Wallington, M.P. for South FANO presiding. The chairman was supported by Mr. G. M. W. Peacocks, M.P., Major Jervis, M.P., Mr. C. Du Cane, M.P., Mr. H. J. Ballwin, Sir Claude de Ctespigny, Captain Cribb, The usual loyal toasts having been disposed of with the oiled enthusiasm, Mr. Du Ci.u, M.P., who was received with loud cheers, after some preliminary remarks, said— We are met today to do honour to conservative principles, to do honour to your mint conservative member, and if • rumour that • little birdwhispered in my ear be correct, to drink success to your future conservative repressotetive. (Cheers.) I hope that the combined attractions of the charms of the present and the bootee of the future have not altogether obliterated the *mine memories of the past. lam glad to find that there exists in your breasts, as there does in mine, • lively reoollec ties of pest days of conservative triumph, and I hail that re , eadeetiao as • happy augury of days of omeereative triumph again to come. But, gentlemen, Ido not rise, however rming the temptation mar be, to detain you with say pleasing reminiacences of the past. I rise more;mmediatel, far the purples _of repaving loyctu that 'high ba l l' Mo ld's :2- ways esesideted to be emesiMally a eaeservative toast —l mean the "Army, Navy, sad Volunteers" of this country. When I say it is • conservative Meat, I don't mean 'maser ratios in the sense in which that term would probably be understood by Mr. Bright and Mr. Cobden, viz., to the effect that conservatives are always in raptures with every thing and everybody that east money sad . is say way to the Balboa expenditure—(laughter)—bat I mean conservative essentially in this sense, that it ap pears to me that it is to the energy, courage. sod patriotism displayed at all ts by oar ve army, navy, arid volunteers, that we e owe in these ticklish days of wars and rumours of wars in other parts of the world the maintenance and preservation of oar own dogmatic peace and traaquillity. (Hear, hear.) It is very true—and I regret the fart in common no doubt with you all—that the expooditore of this country upon the head of our national defences him reached • point hitherto unknown in times of peace —a circumstance which, combined with the reckless financial policy of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, tends to make the weight of our taxation peculiarly oppressive at the present moment ; but, gentlemen, we mart remember that, although this is • period certainly of profound pesos, it may also in other respects be termed • period of an exceptional character. I think it is quite impossible for any one who considers at the pre sent moment the generally unsettled aspect of the European continent, and for any one who looks at the un certainty—l am sure when we remember what occurred lace winter in the affair of the Trent I am amply justified in using the term—which clouds both our present sad future relations with America, to remain unconvinced that this is not the exact moment to be talking about wholesale reduc tions in our army and navy estimates, and a diminution in our military and naval expenditure. (Hear, hear.) There is also another reason which tends to make this entirely an exceptional period. We can but remember, I think, at the present time, that if the last ten years have been singularly ocespicuous for the gradual development of the arta of peace, they have been no is conspicuous for the develop ment of inventions of • warlike and destructive character. It was only elevea years sines that most of us met within the walls of an exhi bition of the industry of all nations, which soma ! more sanguine enthusiast' declared was only the prelude to the reign of everlasting Naos. (Lanka.) We shall most of us doubtless meet this year within the walls of • similar, and I wish I could only add in an architectural sense equally plessing structure, sad there side by side with the choicest specimens of arta aod manufa ctures of peace we see whole warts dedicated to Warrior vessels and Armstrong gene--Warrior vends war ranted shot-proof, and Armatroog guns warranted to deal with those Warrior vessels very much as a bull would deal with • china shop. (Laughter.) One day we read an aloount of the wonderful encounter between the Monitor and the Merrimac, and straightway we think that the question is all settled will shot, and that there is nothing in the world like iroe-plated vessels. The next week we read an amount of • little experiment which comes Off in the picturesque regions of Shoeburyness, and find at which we the ta bles ibmplotele turned noon the iron-plated ships, and straightway we throw up our hats for rifled cannon . (Laughter.) So it appears that day after day, and year after year, this game of invention and discovery may go on, iron-plated ships succeeding Arm ' strong guns, and Armstrong guns succeeding von-plated ships, until at last, happily for us, the day of reaction may set in, and nations may discover what perhaps we have known too long, that this pule of " beggar my neighbour" in warlike armaments is, after all, flat, stale, and unprofit able. But, gentlemen, at the same time I say moat em phatically that while we know that these discoveries are made, and while we know that other nations are availing themselves of them, it i not for England to refuse to do so also. This is not • question—however much we may regret the expenditure which our refusal entails—in which we can afford to take the initiative, unless we would voluntarily sacrifice our position and our influence among the willow 'of the civilised world. I estimate as highly as any member of the conservative party, or any member of the House of Commas, the importance of esta blishing • cordial alliance and good understanding with France ; but I must confess that before, in implicit reliance upon that good understanding, we coasent to reduce our armaments, I would lather see our neighbouis across the water set us the example, or I would rather have some stronger guarantee that our example would be implicitly followed the moment we set it, than we are likely to derive from the solemn assurance of Mr. Cobden, that the exist ence of the French•iromplated navy is simply a bug-bear of the English imagination , or from the liberal offer of his diplo nuitic services to induce the Emperor of the French to con sent to a disarmament. (Laughter.) I must not detain you, gentlemen, much longer, but perhaps you will allow me to offer you • very few observations upon a subject not altogether foreign to the matter in hand ;I mean what occurred last week in the House of Commons in reference to Mr. Stanifeld's motion for a reduction of the expenditure. Speaking as a private and as a thoroughly independent member of the conservative party, I must confess that I don't think the conservative party can regard that little episode of the ses sion altogether with complete satisfactioo. U I may venture in these days of Moot and the Derby to use for • moment the language of the turf, I would say that in my humble opinion the trainers of our comiervative stable committed a slight mistake in entering • horse at all for the " amendment mos," and that they committed another and far more serious error in the choice of the jockey they selected to ride him. We all of us know that according to the laws of the turf if you have entered • hone for • race and you have reason to doubt the quality of his four legs, you may always scratch him up to the moment of starting; but when the sterling flag has been lowered and the nee is fairly com menced, if your jockey deliberately throws him self off, it is somewhat apt to shake public amfidence in the honesty of the stablemen. Now I thiuk it was a mistake in the present position and num bers of the conservative party in the House of Commons to place on the notice paper of the house an amendment which censorial the past financial policy of the government, and hod down certain very wholesome but at the same time very etringent regulations as regards the nouns to be pm , sued by them in their future budgets. Lord Palmerston was only too happy to seize upon the challenge as • vote of confidence, and thereby attempted at once to burke all preliminary discussion whatever ; and! think the conserve- tive party committed a mistake because if they bad been defeated on the amendment the result could only have been to strengthen the hands of the present government, and if, on the other hand, the conservative party had been vic torious, the result—lifter the manlier in which the amend ment was received by Lord Palmerston—could only have been to bring about that which for many mesons I think all parties in the country have agreed in deprecating during the present year, viz., a ministerial crisis sod a dissolution of parliament. I say, then, gentlemen, that to bring forward that amendment was a alight mistake; and what I think the conservative ought to have done on that occasion was to have in a body against the amendment of Mr. Bielefeld, as being ill timed and inexpedient, and then to have left the govern ment to battle out among its own supporters whatever might have followed from the other miscellaneous amend meets. Bat when the leaders of our party had resolved upon placing Mr. Walpole's amendment on the notice paper of the house. sad when Mr. Walpole had deliberately taken charge of that amendment, he would have followed a more statesmanlike course if, instead of abandoning the field before a shot was fired, he had said, " Our object is bringing forward this amendment is, without • vestige of party feeling, to raise • free and open discussion upon • sub feet of great sod paramount national importance. We have no wish, in bringing forward such an amendment, to chal. home a vote of confidence in the government. If you insist on receiving our amendment in that spirit, epos your ewe bomb must lie the respousibility of so doing ; but we will not suffer in the interests of the country that a free and fair damming upon • subject of greet and national importance shall be buried b 3 a specie. of dictatorial map d'eat. But, gentlemen, there are two very old and trite proverbs which are not inapplicable to the little episode of last week. The first of them is that it is of no me shedding tears over spilt milk," and the next of them is that "it is ea ill wind which blows nobody say good." I cannot help thinking that, however disintiaged we may feel with the momentary malt, the event of last week will not be altogether without its effect se regards the future. I cannot help thinking that when the excitement at his great victory has passed away, Load Plamilellia• will [Stamped, id. Additional.] =e the great truth that whatever may be his per. popularity with all classes of the country—and it as undoubtedly great—there is also existing • deep under current of genuine dissatisfaction at the features of his financial policy. I believe he will have the good sense to see that the people of this coun tr y are resolved not to re- Vethe words of the noble lord's amendment as • mere and empty pledge, but that they are heartily weary of • war expenditure based upon • series of deficiency budgets, • war income tax, war tea and sugar duties, and an injurious and oppressive malt tax, maintained merely with a view of carrying out in the interest of the most noisy section of the radical party a few clap-trap reductions in indirect taxation. I cannot help thinking that if Lord Palmerston be wipe he will endeavour during the year of grace which the event of last week has un doubtedly given to his ministry to set his house in order upon these matters, for depend upon it that the next time betimes down the gauntlet and challenges the House of I 000111100111 to • vote of want of confidence, that vote will be ed to in • very different spirit. (Hear, hear.) There i fi ll s g r d one more wholesome reflection which I think we may draw from the events of last week. I think those events will teach the country how rightly to estimate the value of that demand for economy which has hitherto been raised as the favourite hustings cry of the who'd party, who have now said in effect by their conduct, " Economy in theory is an excellent cry for sham demonstrations, but so long as we eau mooed in transferring the border of the state from our own shoulders to theme of the land and the working classes, by all means let us say hurrah for Lord Palmerton and expenditure." (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) I believe it is an midoulitni fact that if Mr. Wal po le 's amendment bed been messed to a Origins, * tar the pester wanther those 110 members who voted for Mr. &andel:Ts modem— Mr. Blansfaid., by the way, himself included—would have in their turn voted for Lord Palmerston, the very minister whose warlike tendencies they affect to deplore, and whose paw expenditure they pretend to condemn. (laughter.) Now, gentlemen, I have only one more remark to make in ixectlaston. I trust that from what I have amid you well not regard me sillier as an advocate for a wanton and perm fume expeoditnre in the defames of *country, or as having in say way a lemming towards the principles and policy of Lord Palmentoe's government. Anything late needless or wanton expenditure, much as the vote of a very lase s sum for the completion of what I believe tote unless fortifications at Alderney, or the modest '- lion made the other evening for a rote of bOO,OOOl. for • room for stuffed animals at the British Museum, will fad in me as great an opponent as even the hon. member for Lambeth, upon whose shoulders the mantle of Joseph Hume has fallen. As regards the principles of Lord Palmerston's government, although I freely and frankly say that in the question of maintaining the national defences, and in the leading features of his f • policy, be has proved himself a fair expount of the national opinion, there are many vital questions of conservative policy upon which I am directly at issue with his government. TIN question of church rates, upon which we gained this session so peat • victory, so gnat and glorious a triumph—the question of education, upon which the government were farad into a humiliating compronsime—ead last, although not least, the policy of the Chaneellor of the Exchequer, which cannot, I think, be continued much looser without bringing the country into:a state of great financial embarrassment.

The annual meeting of this association wan held yesterday, and was numerously attended. la the morning • sermon was preached at Essen street Chipal by the Rev. W.

This asylum, which is situated on Ham-common, Richmond, was founded in 1849, and it provides menetexams, clothing, and education for destitute uphaa girls of all ages, dames, aid denominatioes, from all parts of the kingdom. The children are allowed to remain in the Home natal they are fifteen years of age. They receive a plain education in English, writing, and arithmetic ; and also—as one great object is that they 'honkl be trained for dominate servios—pnictical instruction in the kitchen, house, and laundry. When the children arrive at fifteen years of age, should they not thee be pro- Tided for by their friends, the committee endeavour to ob tain suitable situations for them. The Home at present contains ninety-eight orphan girls, who have bees admitted from Gloucestershire, Somerustehire, Shropshire, Wiltshire, Monmouthshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Berger'. shire, Leioeatershire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Surrey, Sussex, Kent, the City, Southwark, Chelsea, Lambe th , Rotherhitbe, Bermondsey, Blackfriars, 13ethnal-gress, Pimlico, Islington, Spatabiekh, Host.,,do.Elections for the admission of orphans take _place half/early, but the committee will at all times (whoa there is room) admit children, without electios, by as annual payment of from 10 to 15 guineas, or by ow piquant of 10U to 150 guineas, aooordiag to age. Steps having been tithes to erect a per. maosotlHome, it is stated that the centre, the east wing, and the domestic offices of the new building are now complete. With the west wing the new building will hold 200 girls, beteg 110 more than could be accommodated in the old buildings, which have now been entirely removed. The liability incurred by the committee on account of the new building, draining, Utley, furniture, &c., and the enfran chisement of the site, amounts to 5,4(0/. ; towards this amount they have received 3,750/. They, therefore, most earnestly appeal for aid to enable them to discharp this debt, as well as to provide for the very large increase in the number of children to be admitted. Hitherto the festivals of this excellent charity have been held at Richmond, in close contiguity to the asylum itself, and it would seem that the temporary departure from this custom has rather tended to diminish the number of per. eons who have annually contributed by their presence to the friar of the occasion, for the number of visitors yesterday was quite out of proportion to that which we have been accustomed to see assembled at the annual gathering of the friends of the institution. Nevertheless, the interests of the charity did not materially if at all suffer ; for after veer able and pointed pleading in its behalf by the chairman east other gentlemen, a subscription of 8501. was announced as the result of the evening. A selection of music was given, larder the direction of Mr. Henry Bucdthand, in which Hiss Graoe Barrow, who was much applauded, and Miss Julia Elton bore the prominent parts, Mr. J. L.

The report was then read, and stated that the day and evening schools were producing the results expected hum them. Through the kindness of lady Virginia Souders, prizes of ss. each were given every Christmas to 11 boys end girls, who bad made the moat progress in the mammary branches of a plain clocation. Io the schools 43 children wrote in eienng books, and 50 fairly on slates. There were atten the day schools 42 infants (under 6 years of age), 90 girl and 62 boys ; at the eveniag school 14 girls and 25 boys. The Sunday school was proceeding satisfactorily, the average attendance being above that of last year.
