ROYAL POLTTACHNIC INSITITTIOIf. Professor Pepper, ever alive to the neoessity for varying the enter tainments at this institution as frequently as possible, ha s just added two new features to the daily attractions of the place : the first consisting of an interesting lecture by Mr. J. L. King, on the subject of Mr. Nathaniel J. Holmes's patent torpedo, for the destruction of ships and the protec tion of ports ; the second, of a new musical version of "Robinson Crusoe "by Mr. Henri Drayton, assisted by Madame Tv ilitey. The original vereion of this latter enter tainment was produced, it may be reoollected,at Christmas, and then proved one of the most successful exhibitions which have yet been made under the ever-popu lar guise of "dissolving views." It was thought, however, that something more than a didactic description of Crusoe's adventures wee required to please the testa of sight-seers, and hence Mr. Drayton, adieu under the guidaoce of Mr. Pepper, has produced a result which readers the performance as agreeable to the ear as it i• ' interesting to the eye. This gentleman's powerful voice is heard to great advantage is the capacious and darkened theatre ; and he is effectively seconded by Madame Wildey. Mr. Hiag's lecture on Holmes's Patent Torpedoes p another of the many very lucid and skilfully arranged die. quintions upon popular forms of science with which this geotlemaa bee lately favoured the visitors to the Poly technic ; and if anything could have bees wasting to com plete the "rood" of entertainments, it may be said to be eJnanderatly supplied by the two novelties sow lattoduced.

Mr. A. Angus Croll having been voted to the chair, briefly opened the pro ceedings, after which the meeting was addressed by the Rev. Mr. Davey, the society's missionary in the Bahamas, and the Rev. Mr. Cattennes. The Rev. William Brock then moved the following resolution :—" That this meeting Navin heard with feelings of the deepest regret of the events that have interfered with the progress of the eman cipated people of Jamaica in civilisation and prosperity, and eepecially of the lamentable transactions connected with the recent riots at fitment Bay, they offer their warmest sympathies and support to the ministers and mis sionaries cossetted with the Baptist Missionary Society who have been singled out as the objects of opprobrium sod reproach, this meeting having the full assurance that their labours and ministry have been characterised by loyalty to the crown, by observance of the laws and institutions of Jamaica, by an earnest sod saccade] effort to instruct the people in the fear of God and obedience to every lawful authority." The resolution was seconded by the Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel, and cordially adopted. Ma. W. E. BAXTER, M. P. , AND TAE CONFEDERATE MAN.—The New York Times of the 15th publishes the following letter from Mr. W. L Baxter, M.P. :—" Dundee, Scotland, Dec. 29, 1861 —To the Editor of the New York Times.—l am surprised to see my name in a list of British sobeeribers to the Confederate loan, which has been circu lated on your side the Atlantic. During the last four years :I have been one of the most ardent sympathisers with the Northern people in their struggle to vindicate the principle+ of free constitutional government, assailed by the slave-owning aristocracy of the South, who had too long been dominant in your great republic, and who, when beaten at the polls, attempted by insurrec tion to destroy one of the best governments in the world. Never for a moment did I lose faith in the ability of the Northern States to pus down a rebellion the most unjustifiable in history, and I rejoice to think that their triumph has not only strengthened and consolidated the power of the Union, but has given an impetus to liberty all over the world. The struggle has all along appeared to me so important that my mind was engrossed by it almost to the exclusion of British politics, sad these being my senti ments openly proclaimed in public ever since the commence mint of the war, to say nothing of the folly of the invest ment, I would just as soon have subscribed to assist the despots of Europe or the Emperor of Cbioa, as have given a shildog in aid of a cause the success of which would have been thereateet calamity that ever betel America.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, W.

(nor OUR OWN 00111ZISPORDENTA PARIS, TOZSDAT Emma. Some interesting sparring took place in the Corps Legielatif yesterday on a very serious question of constitutional law raised by the election of K Larrabure for Pan, or rather by the circumstances under which he resigned his seat for Orthez. The great battle, however, will come off on the " verifi. cation of powers" of K Chesnelong, the member elect for Orthez ; for it turned out that both sides of the house, though for widely different reasons, voted that K Larrabure was duly elected for Pau. After K Larrabure had taken his seat, the case of M. Fremy, the new member for the Yonne, was called on. He was objected to on the ground that be is governor of that powerful financial company the Credit Fonder, a place to which he was ap pointed by the Emperor, a place from which the Emperor might dismiss him to-morrow, and which yields him a salary of 40,000 fr. The law says that no " paid functionary" is qualified to sit in the chamber. The government answer to the objection to that K Fremy is sot a paid InootionarY, because, although be owes his place to the Empe ror, and holds it at the Emperor's pleasure, the funds which pay him come not from the state, but from the treasury of the Credit Fonder. The re spectable minority of 45 deputies voted against this sophistical reasoning, and in the minority was K Emile 011ivier, who had formerly committed him self to an opinion on the point by arguing against the validity of the election of K Sonbeymud, sub-director of the Credit Fonder. The most important thing that strike* me in the yellow book, after the Mexican despatches, which were for the most part well known before, is a declaration by K Dronyn de Lhuys in a despatch to the French minister at Florence that the distinct intention of the Frenoh government is that as the result of the convention of Sept. 15 there shall be " two sovereignties " in Italy—that of the kingdom of Italy and that of the Papacy within its present reduced limits. This is no doubt a manifestation in favour of the temporal power ; but still the omission of the word "temporal " in the Emperor's speech shows that, whatever his ministers may say, he shrinks from committing himself upon that point. The Bourse was again very firm. I actually saw commercial letters from London read on the steps of the Bourse, stating that there was a diplomatic rupture between England and the United States, and that war was expected. Bat this absurd super fetation upon a motion rejected by the Senate of Washington produced no serious effect. Bente rose sc. for cash and 2}c. for account, closing at 681 r. 60c. and 68fr. 57ic.

Skelsey, of Perk-lane HaU, near Doncaster, wee attacked by • young Alderney bull in one of the sheds attached to the f.rm premises on the estate, sod sem most fearfully injured. The 'Limb placed at the top of one of the horns of the boll had fallen off during this ennounter, and in the course of the attack it appears that Mr. Skelsey was struck in the left side of the neck, and a deep wound made close to the carotid artery. He was twice tossed up to the roof of the eked, and in falling or being trampled upon by tee bull three of his rite were broken. Serious wounds were inflicted in other parts of the body. The animal was exceedingly quiet when attended to by the person to whom that task was assigned ; but it had shown great impatience when approached by those whom it did not know. Mr. Skelsey was in • state of great prostration yesterday, and it is doubtful whether he will recover. MILLANCHOLY SUICIDI OF • GINTLIMAN.—The village of Oaversham and the town et Raiding were thrown into a painful state of excitement or Monday evening by the report that Mr. G. H. Montagu, of Caversham-hill House, • gentleman extensively known in fashionablecireles, sad highly respected, bad committed suicide. The report, at first, was regarded as incredible ; but upon inquiry it was found to be too true. It appears that some months ago Mr. Montagu had an attack of paralysis, which affected one side, rendered him almost speechless, and injuring likewise the brain. With careful medical attention be had so mach improved es to take airings in his carriage, and also enemies in his grounds, acoompaaied either by hie sister or some other friend. On Monday afternoon be bad arranged for • walk in his park, and a lady in the house intended &CCM. panyisig him. Be appears to have been just ready, and was embed to wait • few minutes, when be should have com pany. He replied, as usual, in • very kind manlier, that his would walk alone, sad should not be long gone. A very short time after his absence • person went to look for him, and was astosisbed to find Mr. Montagu lying in the pond in the park. He bad contrived to undress ▪ and thee plunged into the water. He was miscued from his perilous position with as little delay as possible, sad removed to his hems Mr. May e the family medal adviser, was moos in attendance, and everything done to restore animation, but without effect, death following in a abort time. The sad event has cast quite a gloom over the whole district, as the deceased gentleman, frees his ex tremely spourtmes end affable manner, had gal oed the good will sod respect of all classes of society. Mr. Montagu wee for some years master of the South Hunt, and in that capacity gained • large amount of public esteem. He was rather over 60 years of age. An inquest was to be held last evade( ea the body before Mr. Dixon, the coroner for South Oxfordshire. sl B.* LLW 8.8.1.

APPEAL ON BEHALF OF THE WIDOWS AND ORPHANS OF THIRTEEN Or THE CREIV RECENTLY DRAWN= OUT OP THE GORLIOTON LIFEROAT.—The proper muting of the life boats around the kingdom is becoming every year of greater import a n c e, is the number of merchant and fishing vessels yearly increases, The number of lives saved by lifeboats dating the late severe gales testifies strongly to the efficiency and important)e of their service*. In the borough of Great Yarmouth, which includes Gorier too, there are now four lifeboats and a surf boat, and these see not more than sufficiset for the rescue of the numerous sailors constantly wrecked on this deoprous and moch frequented coast. The crews of the fishing vessels of this port exceed 4,000 hands, and in the Yarmouth Roads 1,000 merchantmen, with crews exceeding 10,000 heeds, are fre- quently sheltered, and the aid of these lifeboats is often required. On the 13th instant one of the Gorleston life boats, the Rescuer, with sixteen hands on board, put out to a merchant vessel in distress in the roadstead. ffhe had scarcely cleared the harbour before the boat was myeloid and twelve of her crew were immediately drowned ; four only of the crew were rescued by another Gorleston life boat, but one of these has since died from exbawition. The drowned lifeboat men have left nine widows and 23 children to mourn the loss of those husbands and parents who died in their attempts to assist others. The loss of life at INS off this coast bead late greatly increased ; two months ego a fishin4 boat foundered with all her crew, ten in number, leaving six destitute widows and fifteen children. At a public meeting, oa the 22nd instant, the inhabitants of this borough resolved to raise a fund for the widows and children left destitute by this lifeboat calamity; and also resolved to raise a permanent fond for the relief of those left destitute by lees of life at sea off this cond. A com mittee has been formed for the collection of subecriptions for those purposes. The committee feel that the above statement will be a sufficient appeal to the British palate Ifor their sympathy and aid in this come of beeevoleeee and charity.—C. G. ALDRED, Mayor; It R.

DEATH OF A ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOP.—The catholic community of the North of England has (says the Newcastle Chronicle) =stained • severe loss in the death of the Very Rev. Dr. ' William Hogartb, Bishop of Newcastle and flexhani. Noteithstandie. the advanced age of the esteemed prelate, who was in his 81st year, he, up to the time of his brief illness. enjoyed the most perfect health. On Sunday afternoon, about 2 o'clock, he was seized by • fit of apoplexy at his residence at Darlington; and, from the sudden shock which his system received, never rallied, death haring taken place on Monday afternoon about 4 o'clock. Dr. Heger* whose long life of devotion to the cause of Roman catho licism has thus bun brought to • close, was a native of Westmoreland, his birth-place being Dodding-green, • vil lage near Kendal, in that county. The career of activity and usefulness of the Very Rev. Dr. Hogarth, which has been brought to so sodden • close, will be long gratefully cherished in the North of England. THE BOOK or COMMON PRAYER.—A deputation will wait on the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of all England, on Saturday next, to present the following memorial, which has been drawn up and signed by a large body of the clergy of the established church :—" To his grace the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of all England and Metropolitan,—Wit, the undersigned clergy, or lay communicants, of the church of Eoglsod, respect fully object to any alteration being made in the Book of Common Prayer respecting the `ornaments of the church, sad the ministers thereof,' and the mode and manner of performing Divine service 'according to the use of the church of land.'" ST. BARTHOLOMEW THE GREAT.—Yesterday afternoon the ceremony of inspecting the remains of this church, and the works of restoration now in progress, took place under the auspices of Mr. Tits, the chairman, and of the committee for the restoration, those gentlemen having invited the members of the corporation of Loudon to inert the London and Middlesex Arcbselogioal Society on the occasion. A large number of o lentlemen were pre sent, and amongst them were many who have distinguished themselves by their knowledge and pursuit of architecture. The disordered condition of the building rendered it somewhat difficult, in the midst of an undigested mass of bricks and mortar, to form any defied., conclusion as to the appearance it will assume when the restoration shall have been completed ; hot the interest attaching to the time honoured in terior was certainly =hauled by the fact that au oppor tunity was afforded to the visitors of observing the wide distinction between the old work and the new, although, as Mr. Tita observed, particular pains have been taken to the character of the church in its M original integr k ity. In i rreesing the stumbled company, r. Tite, who too up his position on the top of a loose heap of old bricks and mortar at the further end of the nave, gave an interesting account of the history of the edifice. The committee who were now engsged in restoring the edifice believed that they should succeed in making it • comfortable and com modious parish church for the benefit of this extremely poor and crowded neighbourhood. For this purpose • sum of about 1,14)01., is addition to what they had already re ceived, was required ; and those who might be disposed to contribute to that amount would be glad to learn that it was the intention of the restorers to preserve in its integrity the ancient characteristics of the budding, so that it might still remain • curious and interesting monument to the piety of our ancestors. Local. Gov enrotr.NT IN LoNneN.—The vestry of St. James's held • meeting yesterday in the Vestry-ball, Piccadilly, to receive delegates from other vestries and dis trict boards for the purpose of demising several important questions.

The resolution was seconded by the Hon. F. Bum, and carried. The second resolution , proposed by Mr. Deemer Enrols, was as follows : —'• That it is desirable the re tries should by joint committee consider the provisions of the Metropolis Gas Act Amendment Bill, or any other gas measure before parliament, with • view to itecariog the right for vestries, jointly or otherwise, to purchase existing gas works, or establishing other works for supplying gas to the costumer; I. the metropolis ; and thus secure the au= powers sought to be obtained by the City of London, sad with that view that subscriptions be invited from each vestry to moue support by counsel, and to defray the re quisite legal sod other mistimed.

[TWOPENCE 74.41110 Na FOR FSBRiIIIY. (From Le Mkt.) We cannot but remark the striking contrast at present existing between the toilets foe bell sad visiting, and those for at home dress. The latter are distinguished by their idniphSity, plain shades, thick materiels, and little trimming ; whilst, for full dress the thinnest and most gauzy materials—skirt upon skirt—looking truly fairy like. Amongt the gauzes most in fashion, we may mention the chambery. It is made in patterns of wide stripes of Fisk, grates, blue, /re., on a white ground, or with narrow satin stripes. Also the chambery satin gauze, a brilliant materiel, with satin bands of a medium width, edged with black. This gauze is made in all colours. Tbsa then is the marquise gauze, transpareat as a vapour, with beads of taffeta' rather far &pert ; others with my narrow stripes across, upon a white ground spotted °eel with patterns in colour. For toilets de villa, there are two materiels that may be noticed as in favour—the nrigesse, entirely of wool dotted all over with small irregular spots which, when of white, remind one of a snowstorm ; but the dote are made of ell colours, although the ground is always black. The other material is a thick penile, dotted with silver and with small I &therms. This is also made in • variety of shades, and is one al the prettiest novelties of the semen. We are told that gold, elver, he., would supplant _ flowers as ornaments for ball dresses, but this is .stalely ea the MOIL Many easing dream are made of two materials—the under skirt of tulle boa llennee ; tbe upper of satin, ending in points, and cut up at each side the body being opened also wider each arm, sad just laced together with a coed. Notwithstanding the moon. venal= of the long traiee when dancing, no hall dress is made without one, though the front of the skirt mast be sufficiently short to leave the fat .t liberty. Velveteen is mare and more worn, not merely for an elitism toilet, bat also for an at home dress. When made with • vests, and trimmed with fur (Chinchilla is perhaps the favoorite), It has a very &stipple apparent*. It is need Ida to form part of the toilet. For instance, • skirt of black taffeta', draped over • skirt .f violet or brown velveteen, and • small palstot of the same. This costume, of eouree, is only ft for driving ; not for visiting. Cluny lace is still ninth worn as a tummies for taffetas ; for satin point d'Aleneon, or some other lace, fast be used. The reign of corelets decidedly continuos—they are made in =eh anety, and worn with ball as well as soiree dress. The " Marie Stuart," " Meoteepen," " L Willa." "Pamela," and "Database" bomb have been described from the time they were first worn. We still find the same models at our principal reunions of elegant aroma, care of course Wag taken that tee colour of the bonnet should either match or contrast well with the rest of the toilet. A very pretty model, the form " Medici.," is of white satin bouillona, with edge of lilac velvet. A curled feather at the aide, and barbs of black lace falling over the crown. A second bonnet, in the same style, was of white velem royal, trimmed with blue satin, and toil sequins. The strings were white, brooch is with gold and blue. The inside was trimmed with gold sequins. • fanclom bonnet, of ruby velvet, with fall of Chantilly at the back. Flowers of tulle and silver. Bandeau of tulle and silver chains. A white velvet bonnet, trimmed with cameos, green sad gold. At the side a flat feather, formed of green mom, the ends tipped with gold. A black velvet bonnet, plain front end narrow flat cur tain. At the side a black cameo, from which fell two wreaths of small bows, ending in tassels, and fastened at the back under another cameo. Bandeau of velvet, with • bow in the middle, and cameo in the centre of the bow. The same bonnet is equally pretty made with coloured velvet, and trimmed with bleak or coloured velvet. A bonnet of blue drawn velvet ; on the crown a fancbon, trimmed with pdpureoiad fastened at the back with niers bate. Bandeau of velvet, trimmed with white guipure and small silver stars.

EFFECTS OF • VERDICT OF FEL° DE SE.—Yes terday a deputation from certain tradesmen resident at Hove, next Brighton, waited upon the magistrates in petty session, at the Hove town-ball, to present a memorial praying the advice and assistance of the magistrates in the following matter —Some time since as old man named William Gaydon, 76 years of age, who was a re tired lodging-hounkeeper, residing at Hove with his daughter, hanged himself. At the inquest the jary re tuned a verdict of simple jets de sc. It was known in the sigh bourbood that the old gentleman bad a few months previously lost bin wife with whom he had lived for fifty years, and the great sorrow had, it was considered, unsettled his mind and induced him to the suicide. Conse quently aped the verdict of the coroner's jury, on Thurs day night, the corpse of the suicide was interred without any religions oeremogy, and by torchlight, in the saino grave where Err. Geedon had been buried. People were greatly moved end shocked at this act, and in contemplation of other terrible oousequences of the verdict, for the pro perty which the demised had saved is thereby forfeit to the crown, and the daughter left destitute. The memo rialists represented all this to the magistrates, pr aying that they would lay a statement of t h e case be fore Sir George Grey, with a view of the verdict, which they con sidered a wrong one, being quashed, and the body being exhumed for proper buriaL The s magistrates , magistrates, who expressed their sympathy with the relatives of the deceased, explained to the depstatioe that they bad no power to take tee mat ter up as the memorialists wished, and reommended them to obtain a writ of orrtiolari and take the matter to the court of Queen's Bench.
