In the sitting of the 16:h inst of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin, a petition, it forming the Chamber that a Genoese b ank-bill bad been refused by the banker of the administration of salt and tobacco, on its being offered in payment by a dealer in those ar ticles, and praying that such abuses might be pot a stop to, created some sensation. The committee on petitions proposed the ord r of the day, on the ground that it was only a private dispute; but M. Bronco and others opposed the molou of its committee, de claring that the refusal complained of was • violation of a law recently voted by parliament. The Chamber rejected the order of the day, and the petition was referred to the Minister of F.nance. After disposing of several other petition'', the Chamber heard a cont emplation of M. Mgr', Minister of Finance, who presented a bill for the fusion of the two banks of Genoa and Turin. A petition from 874 Sardinian citizens living et Geneva, praying that the tax they had to pay annually for the renewal of their purports should to abolished, or at least considerably dimio jibed, was, after some discussion, referred to the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

The anniversary of oar revolution seems to pass on quietly. u that of France did in Paris the other day. Everything is quiet, no graiver crowds than ordinary, except perhaps io the neighbourhoods of Frederick shaine and the Grab r. The police are on foot in great ntimb, , rs. Ttere are some few signs of mourn ing on hats and in windows, and round the pages of the democratic journals; but the rest of the world seems to have forgotet, at least in outward show,: the events of the lest two years. No doubt is entertait.ed of the opening of the Erfurt parliament, its passing the constitution at once, and proces ()lig to the other important and pre-sicg business of the time. The Proteins minister has answered rather hastily to the Hanoverian announcement of Demotion from: the Erfurt lesgu*. Hanover accompanied the announcement by expressing the desire that this should no: disturb the friendly relations between the governments. Prussia repli.d, that the maintenance of friendly relations to longer rested with the Prus sian government, as such relations could not but be seriously effictcd by the conduct of the Hanoverian government. OPENING OF THE GERMAN PARLIANIENt The Cologne Gazette contains the following tele graphic despatch : ERFURT, MARCH 20. The German parliament was opened this forenoon, in the Government House. At half-put twelve the member of the Verwallunsts-rath took their seats in the Assembly. Herr von Rsdowitz opened the proceedings by a speech, in which be gave them an historical account of the events which preceded and led to the German parliament. He dwelt oa the duty wn ch the united governments had of granting a constitution. The presumption that all the governments would accede to the League had turned out to be unfounded. Hol stein and Lauenburg were prevented by the Danish war. Hanover and Saxony differed in their views trim the united governments. The former had declared its intention to secede from the League. An impeachment had been brought for ward against Hanover es well as Saxony. The united governments must not allow themselves to be domed by obitache. He then adverted to the bills which the government intended to submit to the parliament--such as the charter of the constitution and the memorial, the electionary law, and the addi tional act. Baron R idowitz exhorted the bowel to sub ject thesebills to a strict and patient examination, and to advance the alterations on which they might agree to the notice of the administrative council. He fur ther asked for powers for the presidency (Voratand) of the empire to eater into negotiations on the su►ject of the immunities which had been granted to the Haase towns. After informing the parliament of the appointment of the other commissioners, Baron liadowitz concluded by declaring, in the name of the united governments, that the parliament was opened, i whereupon the members withdrew to constitute their homes.

The Egyptia& Hell, in which this grand display of cork hospitality took place, is well-known to be one of the noblest and meet appropriate spartmexts for such a purpose that can anywhere be found. Ginn as it has been used ior purposes of festivity, and embellished and decorated in various styles of richness and splendour, there has, probably, never been any occasion on. which it presented so striking and pio eulia-ly munificent and appropriate an appearance as on the present. The novelty of the occasion Reed has been taken advantage of to introduce a style of ornament and decoration at cues novel and pleasing in the highest dear, to, displaying so muck ingenuity and good taste as to demon the greatest connosudatt -a and praise. The cloth having bests removed, and the loving cup passed, The LORD MAYOR rose , and said—May it please your Royal Highness, illy ',Ord', and Gentlemen, the Sent toast I have the honour to propose to you this evening is ens lam sure you will respond to, and that with enthu siasm. Iris the health and long-continued happiness of our beloved and most gracious Sovereign Queen Victoria. The toast was drunk with loyal honours, and was followed by the national anthem. The LORD MAYOR again rose, and said—My lords and gentlemen,-1 hays the distinguished honour to entertain this evening the consort of our beloved and gracious Queen. In proposing th e health of his Royal Highness Pekoe Albert, allow me to connect with it an expression of my desire that the great exhibition about to take plan in the year 1851, and which his Royal Highness takes so great an interest in, may benefit not only this me tropolis, but produce good and la.ting results through;ut the United Kingdom, and a brotherly feeling towards all nations. With these sentiments I beg to propose the health of his Royal Highnesis Prince Albert, and success to the exhibition of 1861. His Royal Highaess Prince ALBERT than rose, and spoke as follows:—My Lord Mayor, I am sincerely grateful for the kindness with which you have pro posed my health, and to you, gentlemen, for the cordiality with which you hays received this proposal. (Hear, hear.) It must, inde*d, be mist gratifying to me to find that a suggestion which I had thrown out, as appearing to me of importance at this time, should have mot with such universal concurrence and appro. Dation ; for this has proved to me that the view I took of ttto peculiar character and requirements of our ago was in accordance with the feelings and opinions of the country. Gentlemen, I conceive it to be the duty of every educated person closely to watch and study the time in which he lives, sad, as far as in his lies, to add his humble mite of individual exertion to briber the accomplishment of what he believes providence to have ordained. (Cheers.) Nobody, however, who has paid any attention to the particular features of our present era, will doubt for a moment Vest we are living at a period of most wonder ul transition, which toads rapidly to accomplish that great end to which indeed all history points, the realisation 01 the unity of mankind; not a unity which breaks down the limits and levels the peculiar characteristics of the different nations of the earth, but rather a unity the result and product of those very national varieties and anta gonistic qualities. The diatoms which separated the different nations and parts of the globe are gradually vanisning before the achievements of modern invention, and we can traverse them with incredible ease: the languages of all nations are known, and their acquirements placed within the reach of everybody: thought is communicated with the rapidity, and oven by the power, of lightning. (Loud cheers.) On the other hand, the great principle of divigoa of labour, which may be called the 'analog power of civilisation, is being extended to all branches of science, industry, and art. (Hear, hear) Whilst formerly the greatest mental energies strove at universal know ledge, and that knowledge was confined to the few, now they are directed to specialities, and in these, again, even to the minutest points,—but the knowledge acquired becomes at ones the property of the community at barge. (Hear, hear.) Whilst formerly discovery was wrapt in secrecy, the publicity of the present day causes that nos ions, is a discovery or invention made, than it is already improved upon cad surpassed by competing efforts. The products of ail quarters of the globs are placed at our dis posal, and we have only to choose which is the best and cheapest for our purposes, and the powers of production are entrusted to the stimulus of con petition and capital. So man la spproaching a more complete fulfilment of that great and sacred minion whisk he has to perform in this world : his reason being crewed after the image of God, he has to use it to discover the laws by which the Almighty governs his ereation,and by peeking these law, his standar • of action town quer nature to his use—himself a divine instrument. (Hear.) fiassnco discovers these laws of power, motion, and transfor mation—industry applies them to the raw matter, which the earth yields us in abundance, but which becomes valuable only by knowledge—art teaches as the immutable laws of beauty and symmetry, and gives to our productions torus is accordance with than. (Hear.) Gentlemen, the exhibition of 1851 is to give us a tree test and a living picture of the point of development at which the whole of mankind has arrived in this great task, and a new starting point, from which all cations will be able to direct their further exertions. I confidently hope that the first impression which the view I of this vest collection will produce upon the spectator will i be that of deep thankfulness to the Almighty for the bless- I jags which he has bestowed upon us already hen below ,• I and the second, the conviction that they can only be realised in proportion to the help which we an prepared to render I to each other; therefore, only by pesos, love, and ready assistance, not only between individuals, but between the nations of the earth. This being my conviction, I must be highly gratified to see here assembled the magistrates of all the important towns of the realm, sinking all their local local, and possibly, political, differences---the representatives of the differect political opinions of the country--and the repre sentatives of the different foreign nations—to-day represent ing only one interest. Gentlemen, my original plan had been to carry out this undertaking wits the help of the B:ciety of Arts of London, which th,d long and usefully laboured in this direction, and by the means of private capital and en terprise. You have wished it otherwise, and declared that it was a work which the British people, es a whole, ought to undertake. lat once yielded to your wish, feeling . that it proceeded from a patriotic, noble ' and generous spirit. On your courage, perseverance, and liberality, the undertaking now entirely depends. I feel the strongest emandence in these qualities of the British people, and am sure that they will repos confidence in themselves—coalidsase that they will honourably sustain the contest of emulation, and will nobly carry out their proffered hospitality to their foreign competitors. We, her Majesty's oommisaioaers, are quite alive to the innumerable difficulties which we shall have to OMOOM• la carrying out the scheme; but having eimuldease in you, sad Is oar own seal and pereeveranee at host, we require only your confidence in as, to make us contemplate the result without any epprehe linos. (Loud cheers.) Prim ALBER again rose—Gentlemen, it is now my duty tto propose to you the health of our host, the a r Mayor, and ay to the City of linden—the commercial metro not only of this conntry, but of the world. (Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR, fa returning thanks, said that he felt himself placed in a proud position on the present maw sion. His only difficulty was lest he should fail is *visa ing himself with satisfaction to those over whom he had the Inmost to preside. Re trusted, however, that so far as he had rose, that he had been successful . ( Loud cheers) But whether or not, he must he permitted to express the deep =tit he felt to hie Royal Highness sad to the ether ithed guests who had railroaded to the toast, sad thank them for the honour they bad conferred apes him. The LORD MAYOR again rose and said The toast which I have now the honour to propose is, I am sure, one which you will venend• saddrink with great pleasure . It is the health of the AriabfahrielCastery and the clergy of the United Kingdom alMseend and Ireland.

The LORD MAYOR next gani " Tie Ann and Navy," whisk having bass drunk, Colonel BOUVERIR retained thanks. The LORD MAYOR—May it plan your Royal High ness, say lards, and gentlemen, the duty I have now to perform I. faded a most pleasing one. We have the hap pines at this Uinta be at peen with all the world, and I am sure you will join me cordially in drinking the repro sestatives tithe foreign nations who are here present. I give you the Foreign Ministers. The toast was drunk whh loud cheers. The FRENCH AMBASSADOR acknowledged it. He said when he east his eye around him he beheld the cities of England nominated by their chief magistrates at that men fag, which k • might truly call • House of Commons cf English industry. (Loud cheers ) He hoped he might look awn this assembly as the shadowiog forth of the tutors. Foreign nations ander the banner thus nised by the hand of Great Britain would very soon be represented here also, by their produettoen. England had nobly thrown open her doors to the competition of the world, and the rivalry of nations which was invited was one that would lead to a con test of pone alone. Each would learn something from the other, and all would he gainers. The manufactures of England would not suffer by a comparison with the probably more tasteful fabric,. of other countries, for their merit con sisted in their cheapness and the strength and durability of the taxteue not in the flue glosses, as the wife of the Vicar of Wakefield would say, but is their durability, whereas she would have the advantage of that superiority of design which other nations had the credit of originating. Of this he was sure, that whether in the field of enterprise, or the field of battle, England would always stead her tronied. (Chests.) The LORD MAYOR neat proposed " the House of Peen," coupling with the taut the health of the Marquis of Lanodowee. The toast was drunk with the anal honours. The Marquis of LANSDO tt NE, in acknowledging it, said that be was deeply sensible of the kindness of the Lord Mayer, in associating hls name with that of the House of Pailtement of which be had the honour to be a member • though the majority of that body might be looked upon is the less natal light of consumers rather than pro ducers, yet they might be regarded as a forgot standing jury to pronounce a verdict on those objects of testa and art which were perpetually being produced and rivalling each other in this country. It was • source of unmixed pleasure for the members of that beefy to assist in such a work as the present. He believed he was assist ing at en interesting occasion, which would torus the commencement of a new epoch, the consi queonts of whine no man could estimate. He believed the stream of industry would flow more freely when the manufacturers of one country had the benefit of the experience of those of °then, and that it would be a source of great advantage to all mankind and toil to the civilisation of the world. He begged to thank them la his own name and that of the House of Lords for the compliment they had paid to that body. 'Lim LORD MAYOR cad he had now to propose the health of an eminent statesman to whom this country was deeply indebted. He need hardly say he alluded to Lord John Russell, and he would couple with that toast her Majesty's ministers. The toast was drunk with enthusiasm. Lord J. RUSSELL had so often had occasion to thank the citizens of London for the indulgence with which they had viewed the acts of her Majesty's ministers, that he had no fresh words to express his thanks f.r their kindness on the ptesent occasion. He augured much for the 'access of the great movement in which they ware engaged from the fact of the presence of the representatives of the corporations of England to assist in it. (Cheers.) He felt that this design, like all good designs, would have collateral eff.c s perhaps equally advantageous with those which mutt directly flew from it. Such an exhibition as was proposed would bring together the most distinguished men of all nations, those who were moat remartable in science and in art, and in every rank of life, the result of whose knowledge and ex perience would be given to the world. He was run they could not see such an assemblage of distinguished men amidst them, without their being animated by • more friendly feeling to other 'lesions. la this manner therefore would be prnmoted, indirectly and collaterally, that great brotherhood of nations, which it was his Royal Ilighneis's great object to encourage. He believed that the proposed exhibition would have the most advantageous effects in pro ducing good will and amicable feeling amongst all mankind, and that hereafter it weuld be celebrated as the great jubilee of ieduetry and peace. (Cheers ) The LORD MAYOR next proposed the health of Lord Stuiley and the Royal Calmissionen, which havin g b een dr e".. . . Lre;Zl STANLEY replied to it. He said he felt it a dis tinguished but at the same time an unmerited honour to have his name asscciated with the exhiblion, in preparation for which that great assemblage had met together. His name could only have been selected with a view to demonstrate that men of the mo t different political opinions, could and always did, cordially and harmoniously co operate for objects which all believed to be conducive to the public god. (Cheers.) The commissioners could do no less than enter- Ws those feelings when they found they were presided over by one, who amongst his many claims to public respect and gratitude, was none more worthy than that he had always carefully abstained from interfering in political contests, while he bad nev r shrunk from taking an active part wh objects were to be accomplished tending to the benefit and advancement of his adopted country. (Cheers) He felt that in returning thanks on behalf of the commission, that were he to enter into the objects for which that commissins was issued, the high and holy objects contemplated, he should only weaken the effect of that full, able, and truthful statement which had been made by its royal president. (Cheers) It was to his royal highness, and not to the commission, that their thanks were due. The commissioners had done no more than labour humbly but cordially under hi. active presidency. He (Lord Stanley) had con sented that hie name should be Vexed on the commission, believing it to be his duty se a loyal subject to aid as far es he could an object which he knew to be deeply interesting to the sovereign, ano mere so to the consort of that sovereign and the father of the future soverei:n of this country. (Cheers.) He could not deprive himself of the satisfaction of bearing his testimony and that of his colleagues to the probable 'lithos of this great exhibi tion. He agreed with the noble marquis (Lansdowne) that its effects, moral and social, immediate and contingent,were difficult to estimate, far more so to exaggerate. This must at least be its result, to bring together in herinoni.tus con cert the nations of the world, and promote good feeling amongst them. At the present moment it was more than ordinarily important that the feelings of the people should be withdrawn Trona national jealousies, and from those san guinary wars which were always disastrous to the general welfare, to the development of their resources, and the ad vancement of those arts which most tend to the welfare of all mankind. (Cheers.) He was satisfied the more largely they extended the competition the greater would be the sun mu of the experiment. He believed there were some who looked with a jealous eye at the competition of foreigners, and imagined that the British tradesman sad artisan would suffer from it. If, in the forthcoming exhibition, the fo reigner excelled the British manufioturer in anything, it would be in those products which taste and design formed the mut important features ; but in anything which com. bitted practical use with finished excellence, the adaptation of me ans with the fulfilment of the end, and the application of scientific knowledge and experience in all that regarded finished perfection and workmanship, he believed the British manufacturer would not shrink from com petition with any nation in the world. (Cheers.) And even is those matters in which we might fail, would it be of no advantage to our own artisans to have exhibited before their eyes those speci mens of excellence which had attracted the admiration of the world ? (Cheers.) He could not believe that the Eng lish artisan, though he might be slow to iavent, was slow to take a part and improve on the inventions of others; nor mould he believe that those who entered into competition with him would not be benefited: by the exhibition of those qualities in which he excelled. He therefore looked at the forthcoming exhibition as beneficial to all nations. Before he eat down he would remind those who were the representatives of the industry of this country on the present occasion, that it was not by the labour of the few, hut the co-operation of the many, that MOM was achieved. The success of this groat saterprim mho& with the country at large, and it was by the 00-operatls. et the country alone that it could be made worthy of the Priam who had designed it, of the metropolis in which it wars Ile be bell, and of the position which Eng land held the nations of the world. (Loud sheers ) Lord PAL TON then gave " The Lady Mayoress and the ladies." The LORD MAYOR briefly returned thanks, and having dons so, proposed The health of Sir Robert Peel and the members of the House of Commons," thanking the right hon. baronet for the great service he had rendered his country. The toast having been duly honoured, ' Bir ROBERT PEEL observed that whatever differences of opinion on other subjects might animate the distinguished body with which hie name bad been aimociated, he believed they were all unanimous in their desire to witness the mum of the great undertaking which they were met that day to promote. They did not uk from the House of Commons any thing beyond its sympathy and good will. They sought not for legislative interferenee, power, or authority, but he in• treated them, while they were foregoing the.. advan tages, to consider the responsibility they were undertaking. They were making an engagement in the face of the world, which ooninsitted the credit aid character of this great country. They were engaging that by the individual energies of Roglishmen t - th at should be accomplished which had never been effected in other countries but by the sanction sad active co-operation of the government, sad the direct interference of the public authorities. He had no fur of the result. (Cheers.) lie believed that the experiment would be 'eminently tut:artful, in spite of the cavilling of 'some and the fears of others,• be was confident that such was the spirit of Englishmen that this great undertaking would not be permitted to fail. (Hear, hear.) It was a great and a noble undertaking to bring together in one central spot, and exhibit to the view of the work!, those rations productions which an all-wise and beneficent Crusher had distributed in various dimes and in distant countries, to exercise the mental faculties, and to stimulate the ingenuity of man, and so to provide fa the in tellectual improvement end the physical comfort and happi nem of all. (Cheers.) This exabitien was not put forward in any sp irit ofjealons rivalry or hostile cooirti•ion, but with a etre to impart to other: the knowledge which we pewees, and to obtain from them that knowledge white they had, but which we had not, and thus by the mutual exchange of experience, to add to the comforts and happiness of mankind. (Hear, hear.) He would ectreat the representatives of the mufti cdpal bodies present not to rest satisfied with their attendance In that hall today,; to-morrow they would have the oppor tunny of conferrMg with the members of the executive committee, and the commission would be ready to meet them in the committee room in which they assembled at the palace; at Westminster at 11 o'clock in the m ruing , tc give them all the infonnetion they might require. He trusted they would avail themselves of the opportunity thut afforded, and that they would return to their respective dis tricts, rrmenatering that they had eau cal upon as nudity:tang in which the ammeter and honour of England was largely involved, and that they had entered upon it, as he hoped, with the determination that it sic, uld not fail, but aWnld be curled to a triumphant result by the deter mined energy of the Bri , ish people. (Loud cheers.) The LORD MAYOR ben again rose. He sad— May it please your royal highness, my lords, and gentle men, I am honoured this evening by being surrounded by met of the chief magistrates for th e cities, towns, and b troughs of the Caked Kingdom ; in pre; otrog their health I de so with a firm belief that they have, in common with the inhabitants of the metropolis, a sincere wish to promote the grand design of his royal highness in the exhi bition of the works of arts of all nations. They will, lam confid en t, stimulate their fellow -townsmen to manufacture and produce the best works of art for this exhibition, and thereby show to the whole world that Englishmen have ia to:licence, skill, awl industry, to compete with all nations without fear or jealousy, end by so doing will ensure peace, comfort, and happiness, to their fellow.eountranen through , out this happy laid. I therefore beg to propose the heaths of the chief maciatrates of the cities, boroughs, and towns of ' the United Kingdom. The toast famine been drunk, the Lord Mayor of York, Mr. Rinelds, M.P., the Lord Mayor of Dublin, and the Lord Provost of Edinburgh, severally returned thanks. The Earl of CARLISLE then proposed .• The workmen of Great Britain," wax' Maims he advocated io an eloquent address. This toast having been warmly responded to, "The City Magistrates," coupled with "The health of Alderman Thompsno, M.P.," was given, ricer which his Royal Highness retired, and the company shortly afterwards broke up. GORHAM v. THE BISHOP OF EXETER. The Bishop of Exeter has written to the Arch bishop of Canterbury, in whose province the diocese of Exeter is situated, to state that he positively refu•ee to in stitute Mr. Gorham to the vicarage of Brampford Spike. The bishop, in his letter, says that it is only out of courtesy and politeness that he calls the decision of tke Judicial Committee of the Privy Council a judgment. He accuses the parties engaged in the cause of giving only garbled ex tracts from the authorities front which they quoted oo the occasion, and observes, that if the whole of the passages re. (erred to had been used that the facts therein set forth would have appeared in a very different light. He then com plains that no notice was taken of the judgment of Sir H. J. Fent, the Dean of the Arches, by the Jadieial Committee. He has, he ebs eves, suffered much, not so much on account of himself, bat from the fear that the lodgment may cause great dirension in the church, as it seems but too lik.ly that they are at the commencement of a great fight; but iesti tute he will not, even if it cost him deprivation from his diocese. He implores the archbishop not to rend the c►urch by persisting in instituting Mr. Gorham, but to cell together the cum•pruvincial bishops, and invite them to declare what is the faith of the church on the articles impeached in the judgment. He protests (he says), in his own name, and in the name of the chore', not only spinet the judgment pro nonneed in the case, but also against the conse quences of the judgment. He protests against the act which the archbishop will h►ve to do himself or by proxy, namely, the insti:u'i-g of the Rev Mr. Gorham he declares that he protests solemnly before the church of England, before toe holy catholic church, and before the Divine Heed, against the Archbishop of Caws rbury giving mission to exercise cure of soul. within his diocese to a clergyman who proclaims himself to hold the heresies which the Rev. Mr. Gorham holds. The bishop further states " that he protests that any one who giver mission to Mr. Gorham till he retracts is a favourer and rupporter of he eee iee ," and that he (the Bishop of Exeter) cannot without sin, and that he will not by God's help, hold communication with him. and be he who he may who shall do so abuses the high commission which he hold,. In consequence of the late controversy the Archbishop of Canterbury has deemed it necessary to publish, in the tom of an addendum to a work written by himself 35 years ago, an exposition of his views respecting the grace of baptism. In the concluding yeartion of these explanatory remarks he says : " All t►at consistency requires of a clergyman who denies or doubts the universal efficacy of infant baptism is that he address his congregation as partakers of the blessings of the Christian covenant, titans their own rio deprive them of it, or unless the state of their hearts prove that they are not believing in the Saviour whom name they bear, and unless the habit of their lives prov. a that they have no part or lot in His salvation. They may have been treated as regenerate in the language of the church, and yet may be I very far from becoming such ' new creatures as the true Christian must be.' Whether or no we believe that they actually become ' children of God' when they were charit ably pronounced such at their baptism, we must judge of them when they come of ace, according to the qualifications by which the children of God are characterised in scripture. Their baptism made them uoquestionably ' Goo's children in word and in deed,' but they are not his children ' in deed and in truth ' unless they are led by the spirit of God." DIOCESE or LONDON.—A protest hu been prepared in this diocese for presentation to the bishop, apaioet the adoption by parliament of acts which affect the doctrine and discipline of the church, without assent being obtained of the bishops and clergy in convocation. The act of parliament constitut ing the Judicial Committee of Privy Council a final court of appeal in matters of church doctrine and discipline, without the concurrence of the church in convocation, is specially protested agaitat, as is also the giving eff.ct to the recent decision of the Judicial Committee, until a convocation hes sanctioned the constitution of the committee, and the deci sions which it may pronounce in ecclesiastical matters. DIOCESE or CIiESTER.—At a numerously attended meet ing in Liverpool, reso:utions were adopted also, protesting against the decision of the Judicial Committee, and claiming a redemption of the royal pledge prs filed the rainy •nine Articles, that the clergy in convocation shall have control ever all things concerning the doctrine and disciFline of the church. THE SWELL-Mob IN THE PROVINCES.—On Wed nesday morning sundry passing visits were paid to all the principal hotels in Leeds by two well-dressed men, whose proceeding attracted the attention of an omnibus driver, named Francis Boddy. A little after six o'clock in the minting he was turning out with his omnibus, when he ob served two well-dressed men, with carpetbags, wrappers, and great coats, enter the Royal Hotel, and supposing, from their having dirty boots on, that they had been travel ling all night, he informed the boots of their arrival. From hence the driver proceeded to the Bull and Mouth and White Horse Hotels, and whilst stopping at the latter place, he was surprised at seeing one of the same two gentlemen deliberately walking down the staircase. This excited his suspicion, which he mentioned to the boots, suggesting that he should ascertain if anything wee miming.
