TROLLOPS, author of " Barchester Towers," &a. Smith, Elder, and Co. There is less sign of falling off, leas appearance of working an exhausted vein, iu this novel than in either " The Bertram*" or " Castle Richmond." , Indeed, we are not quite sure that, with the ex ception of " Barchester Towers " it is not Mr. Trollope's best work. If the subje c t is nut so con genial to the author's mind as that of " The , Warden," the story is much more varied, and the , range of character much wider. If we meet some of our old acquaintances again, we at any rate • meet them in new relations. Archdeacon Grander, , as a father, is an interesting aspect of that solid and stately pillar of the church ; and all Miss Dunstable's friends—which is surely pretty much, the same as saving all Mr. Trol lope's readers—will be delighted to learn that such 0 true-hearted and humorous woman is hap pily married. Then we are introduced to several good new characters, well worth knowing. Mr. Trol lope's belies are perhaps the must natural and at- tractive to be taut with in all our recent novels, and ' Lady Lnftou, in " Frawley Parsonage , " devoted to' her son, but a little icclined to rule him ; the true and kind friend of her parson, but a little given to interfere with him, always, however, with window and justice on her side, iu the choice of his asso ciate, and the way he should go generally ; a little unjust and contemptuous at first to the girl her son chooses, but at last won over by her real excel lenoe, and then taking her to her heart and being ' unable to make enough of her—this Lady Lefton, we say, is one of the very best female chi meters Mr. Trollops ever described ; she is as good as Mies Dunstable herself—we cannot say more for her. Lucy Roberts, the heroine of the tale, though leas a finished and genial portrait, is far from disagreeable—which is saying a good deal for a heroine—and has a strong and marked character. Then, among the men, Mark Roberta is a good picture of an English clergyman, without much sanctity about him, and with no pr etence to any, but manly, honest, and likeable. So is Mr. Crawley, the gentleman and scholar, the only flaw ' in whose high conception of Christian duty is the wide in which be wraps himself in the poverty in which he, and his sick wife, and half-starving chil dren are steeped, and repels the charity of his more fortimate neighbours. But, perhaps, the bestdrawn of the men of this story is Mr. Sowerby, the tin printipled, ruined man of the world, "made sour" by " a little grain of conscience—had Mr. Trollop° the line in his mind when he gave him his Rama 1 What strikes one in these, and indeed in all the characters that Mr. Trollop° creates when he is working in his proper element, is the total absence of oFicature. Forcible, and i peculiar, and strongly marked as many of them are, there s nothing ex aggerated or unreal about them. Yon feel as if you had wet, or at all events might have met, such people in the world. Mr. Trollopu's incidents, too, have the same merit as his characters. They mostly consist of the ordinary and undramatic events which occur, or might easily occur, in anybody's life. Mark Roberts's great trouble is the hay* given his note of hand to a dishonest man for a couple of hundred pounds or so, which be is called upon to pay unexpectedly, and when it is inconve nient to him. The lees does not ruin him, or any thing near it—the little difficulty is tided over; but the unpleasant relations into which it brings the thespian with Lady Lufton and the other goad people about him, and the inevitable reaction on his own temper and character, are so well demeibed that the moral lesson intended to be con veyed is all the more forcible by reason of the com paratively insignificant and by no means tragical nature of the circumstances. As an example of . . PEACE SOCIETY. • The forty•fi ft h anniversary meeting of this society was held last evening, at Finsbury Chapel, Moor. fields; Mr. Josue Prase iu the chair. The Bev. Henar Iticneitue, the secretary, read the re port, which entered into a brief retrospect of the Chinese War, severely coadensding the Proceeding. of the allied go vernments, who had squande d 12,000,0101., destroyed and ravaged vdlages, burnt the Emperor's palace, and outraged the feeling of the Chinese people, for the sake of a treaty worse than worthless. They hail committed a great evil to obtain a problematical good. The raper then rehired to the visit of the French Orpheonists last year, sod the op portunity afforded the society of spreading its principles amongst the French people. It then noticed the startle= of Mr. Cobden with respect to the new treaty with France, and declared the conviction of the committee that nothing would more tend to draw cheer the bop& of sympathy and peace between the peoples of the two countries. A confer ence had lately been held to consider the special require ments of the times, and it was thought well to awaken public opinion to the enormous warlike expenditure of the government, by publications, lectures, fic., with what success might be then from th e pro ceedings in parliament. They bad also prepared an address to the French people, which wee taken over by a deputation to Paris, who had obtained its insertion in most of the Parisian journals, and it bad been copied also into many of the provincial papers. The society had seen with deep regret the state of affairs in America, and had prepared an address to the American people on the folly of a fratricidal war, and that Wares' Lad been forwarded to all the public authorities in America. Great success had attended the agents of the society throughout the country, many meetings had been held end lectures delivered, and in only three towns bad they met with opposition, and that from parties engaged in, the volunteer movement. Large quantities of publications and tracta had been issued. The report concluded with a reference to the lamentable state of the East, after all the blood and treasure spent in the Crimea. The financial state ment showed the receipt, to be 3,1401. 7s. 2d., th e expendi ture 2,1011. Bs. ; leaving a balance in han and invested of I,Mt. 181. 9d. . _ _ The Rev. J. W. WHITTIII./RE having offered prayer, The CHAMMILN mid the occasion on which they were met was one of vast importance. The operations of this institu tion—in a social, religious, and moral point of view—were of the utmost importance. If anything could be done for the regeneration—he might term it—of the poorer classes, it wee by such missionaries as this society empleyed.digging do: as were, into the sub-strata of our population. The test possible amount of judgment was re q in the selection of missionaries, for if in discreet persons were sent out they might do more harm than good. From what be had heard of the operations of this society, he believed that a great deal of care was exercised in the choiceof persons who were to be its instruments, and a peat deal of careful supervision was constantly exercised. Some people thought that the wealthy City of Loudon had no pour, hut he had In hie hand some statistics showing that of the 127,889 per sons living in the City, nearly half of whom were of the humbler classes, the reason of which was to be found in the fact that the wealthy who had business in the City lived out of it. The gross attendance at all the churches and chapels was but 23,389, of which number only 2,106 persons out of the 13,180 poor families were found in the free seats. The poor wanted to have the gospel taken home to them. Half a dozen more missionaries were wanted, and the object of this meeting was to raise the necessary funds. HAMMY, the secretary, read the third moml report, which stated that the three objects with which the Atmiltery were formed wen--First, to relieve the parent society of the heavy barden'then existing upon he funds by the small local support, amounting in the previous yeereet only 481. per missionary, raised ip aid of the minima:lee labouring within the City boundaries ; secondly, to unease,. the number of missionaries from 18 to 30, the number re. quired to bring to all the 13,180 poor families found to be rarident in the City noderaystenietic domiciliary visitation ; I thirdly, to assist the parent society in the appointment of additional missionaries in the poor pendia imme diately contiguous to the City, whose funds for the support of missionaries cannot, through the poverty of the district, be raised locally. The committee regretted to be under the necessity of reporting that although there bad been no increase during the last j ear in the number of Lis-, sionarice connected with the Auxiliary, they bad yet bee. amide to meet their engagements with the parent society. Twenty-four missionaries, however, still laboured in con." oration with this society, and towards the 2,1601., reckoning at 901. per missionary, the cost to the parent society, the. committee could only report 1,5691. ss. 2.1. as having been contributed by this auxiliary, thus leaving a deficiency of 5901. 14e. 10d, to be borne by the general funds of the society, or in other words diverted from districts lees able to pay for their own missionaries than were those within the City boundaries. Among the contributors were the Cor poration of London, 1051. ; the Company of Goldsmiths, M.; Grocers, 1101.; Ironmongers, 10/. 10e; Fishmongers.2l/.; Salters, 10/. 10a.; Carpenters, 51. 5e.; and the City Gas Corn. pany, 51. The committee bud to report that a graded but a certain improvement was taking place in the moral tone of the poor residing in the several mission districts of the Auxiliary, of which a number of instances were given. In addition to the ordinary meeting in their districts the missionaries had conducted open air services in various parts of the City. During the summer a service had been held on Sunday mornings in Smithfleld, by permission of the Chief Commissioner of Police. The attendance varied from 150‘ to 500, and the audience consisted nudely of the working classes, who at tint came out of curiceith with their pipes in their mouths, unshaven, dirty, and behithig at times un seemly. A change, however, had been effected, and the audience had now become in appearance and manner as dement as was to be expected even in regular places of worship J. LABOCCR2III4 Esq., in moving the adoption of the re port, said, though they might not he residing in that part of the metropolis themselves, they were equally responsible for promoting the spiritual and temporal welfare of the poor who resided in the City. If God had blessed them with I prosperity they ought to be desirous of promoting the wel fare-a the poor. With regard to the operation of their owe society, though it might be true that they had not effected all that they propored, yet it was no small thing that they had twenty-four missionaries in their employ, that 13,000 families were under regular visitation, that 27,000 tracts had been distributed, and that 450 reli gious services had been held in houses, of chapels, at prams where the poorcould meet. It was true that there were many churches which s were unfilled, hot for some meson or other the poor would not go to them, and the free seats were regularly oecupied by persons far superior ill station to those who were regularly visited by the agents of this society. He held therefore that they were conferring& vast boon on the poor when they vivo them themeless of attending religious services elsewhere. He rejoioad to hear that the pub ustead of turning the missionaries outoillowed them to go into their houses and expound the Scripture.. He was also that the missionaries had free access to the ali f tVla and the workhouses. lie trusted that the twenty tom missionaries would be increased to thirty, and that this great metropolis, the centre of wealth and commerce, would not be unmindful of the poor within her boundaries. The Rey. J. W. Wimyusoaa seconded, and the Rev. Mr. PA717.160N also addroned the meeting. 114 said fa his district in Spitaltelds be could not get on but for the assistance rendered him by the City missionaries, and he bore strong testimony to the value of their labour is that district _ h.q., .ilaw each day at I o'clock k.t*maa be had at MmtGardena.

ANDREW WtRRAY. On the motion of the Bev. ROE= HAMILTON, of Brighton, the report was adopted. The following resolutions were afterwards agreed to : "1. That in presence of the deplorable prevalence of the war spirit now manifesting itself in various parte of the world, both by actual war and by enormous preparations for war, it is more than ever the duty of the Peace Society faithfully to uphold it► testimony against all war, with a view to imprese upon mankind a sense of its aupeeme folly, cruelty, and costliness, and especially to produce in the minds and consciences of Christian men a conviction of its utter and eternal antagonism to the whole spirit and tendency of the religion they profess. "'2. That this meeting rejoices in the satisfactory result. of the commercial treaty between England and France, con chided by the wisdom, patience, and courage of klr. Cob-. den ; congratulates the committee of the Peace Society oa. the kind reception accorded to their recent mission and ad dress to the people of Prance; and expreeses its earnest conviction that such measures as theee—measures for pro moting commercial intercourse, and for cultivating kindly feeling between the two nations, will do far more to pre-' serve peace than any amount of warlike preparations with• which they may menace and irritate each other. " 3. That this meeting regsnls with the deepest sorrow and pain the fratricidal struggle commenced between the Northern and Southern States of America, and earnestly hopes and prays that a spirit of wise and Christian for bearance may speedily subdue the puaionate excitement which now prevails, so that each party may he led to cul tivate a temper, and to adopt a policy, more worthy of a greet civilized and Christian community." A vote of thanks to the chair concluded the meeting. the same kind of thing we may point to the machinery set in motion and the ho pm and fears excited by such a simple matter as Lord Dumbello's going to Paris. By the way, the archdeacon's be haviour on this occasion is very good ; his hearty English desire to inflict open and summary chasline meut on the man who, he thinks, has jilted hie daughter, struggling with his sense of his position as a clergyman, is both natural and eminently humorous. Of the plot of a story which must be familiar to all Mr. Trollope's now very numerous readers, plus the ter7 large constituency of the Cornkill Maga rine, it is not necessary to say a word. One soene iu the book, however, we wish to single out for special approbation and that is the one in which Lucy Roberts carries off the proud, starving curate's children from the house where their mother is ill with scarlet fever, and then returns and nurses the sick woman. Thee is • pathos in this description, quite free from all sen timentality or commonplace philanthropic twaddle, that the tone of Mr. Trollopes novels seldom rises I to. It is, perhaps, the more effective from the level and conventional scenes of which they usually consist. At any rate it shows clearly enough that Mr. Trollop. has it in him to touch deeper chords in the human heart than he generally does, and we think his always shrewd, clever, and readable stories would gain much by his doing so. The motion having been carried, Alderman HALM moved a vote of thanks to the Lord Mayor for his 000 duct in the chair. h. C. L. BEVAN, Eeq., in seconding, said the chief magis trate of the City of London could not be better employed than in presiding over the meeting of such a society am this. The CHAIRMAN, in returning thanks, said, a great cha racteristic of the age was the establishment of institutions to send missiouaries among the poor, to gather ragged children in schools, and generally to promote the welfare of a class wbo might otherwise be a pest to the community. If they bad a sufficient number of missionaries, if they had the power of taking the poor children and giving them educa tion, and finding employment for them, we could not ima gine what a happy state society would be in. Of comae, such aspirations as these would be utopian, hut it did not follow that because they could not do all they wished they should not don't they could. The ascetic; then separated. A collection was made at the doors in aid of the funds.

This concert, at St. James's Hall last night, was of so attractive • kind that the hall thug crowded to the doors by a brilliant and tgatheable audience, who appeared not to be prevented by the explosively sultry state of the atmosphere from fully enjoying the elegant sod classical entertainment. The concert begaa with Beethoven's Trio in C minor for the pianoforte, violin, and violon cello (No. 3 of Op. 1), admirably played by MINIM. Haiti, Wieniewski, and Lidel, and warmly ap plauded. In the course of the evening there were several other instrumental pieces. M. Wieniewski per formed a solo on a Russian theme, treated by him with much fancy, and full of than brilliant pampa and tours de force by which he is semiathessd to show his unbounded com mand of his instrument. To performances of this kind we do not, we confess, attach very great vane; but the au dience thought otherwise, and applauded the performer with enthusiutic vehemence. M. Halle played two pianoforte pieces—Mendelasohn's (Unties in E and a solo of Heller's— in his usual finished and masterly manner ; and Herr Lidel performed a solo, with great ability, on the violoncello. With these exceptions, the performances were vocal. The great star of the evening wee Alboni, who, not being en. gaged at the Opera, is singing at concerts, and obtaining, it is mid, enormous terms. She is singing this season as charmingly as ever, and certainly a more consummate artist does not exist. She sang two of her most favourite pieces, the cavatina, " Ah, quel giorno," from Semiramide, and the famous finale to the Cenerrntola, her execution of which is a miracle of brilliancy and beauty. It is an especial treat to hear this lady sing the music of Rossini, for she is one of the very few who preserve his school — a school so much purer and better than that which now prevails. After these two pieties, the most finished performance of the evening was Mozart's celebratedeentata, n Non tamer, smatohene, sung by Madame Fermi, with Mr. Lindsay Sloper's masterly obligate accompaniment. Madame Ferrari's voice is not of gnat power, but it is sweet, flexible, and of considerable arespass. Her iatocation is perfect ; she, too, belongs to the pure Italian school, and her singing derives • charm from its freedom from everything like straining or exag- ' Neration. She sings with feeling and expression ; but her manner is quiet and subdued, and ohs is never guilty of inewaining„ or the spasmodic displays of passion so much in vogue at present. A singer like this is the safest and best of mode* aid we may truly say that Madame Pernmi is sot only • good singer herself but the cause of good gigg ing in others. Signor Ferrari's principal performance was the air, "Si tea i ceppi," from Handers Berendire, • grand composition, in the choice of which he showed hi teat* and judgment, for it was perfectly suited to his voice, and he gave it with great energy and effect. Mr. Tennant, of whom we have had ocensioe to speak repeatedly in high tem% mien mediocre air by • composer of the day, throw ing into 1$ oar idszable beauty and impresnioa. Besides the mammas we lams mentioned there were several duets and concerted Meese, the whole forming one of the hest and most interesting inewisel performances of the seemo. WAREHOUSEMEN'S AND CLERKS SCHOOLS. The half-yearly general court of governora and subscribers in connexion with the Warehousemen's and Clerks' Schools was held on Monday evening, at the Guild hall Coffee-house. Mr. Virauroac ORKATOIIIa presided. The report stated that the receipts of the hellion had base, on amount of general fund, 1,3381. 15a.; building fund. 726/. 10a. Md. ; total, 2,065/. ss. Bd. The expenditure had been—general purposes, 1,2011. 0.. 241. • building fund, 127/. 17e. The amount standing to the credit of the building fond WY 8,8321. 15s. Id. The anniversary festival had passed off in the mast satisfactory manner, sad Lord Llcho was cordially thanked for presiding. Two entertain ments had been got up for the building fund; one at Caropden-house, Newington, realised 82 guineas ; and the other, which was the effort, of the Aldermaubun Mutual Improvement Society, had yielded Cl. 14e. 10d. The num ber of scholars was 16 girls and 46 boys, and their progress had beau satisfactory. The board of management reported that they had purchased 20 acres oo &maned Doman, two miles beyond Croydoo, as a site for the proposed building, the price being 2,4501. The friends of the institution were earnestly invited to aid the building fund by disposing of tickets for a th e to be held at the Crystal Palace. The Castilla/I laid the report was so satisfactory that it was Deedless for him to make a speech in asking them to adopt it. He could not help congratulating them es the continued prosperity of the institution. (Applause.) Ha was glad that tile fetes which had been got up hail been so suc cessful ; and he hoped they would endeavour to dispose of tickets for the one which was to come off at the Crystal Palace. lie hoped that ladies would be induced to accept purses, and endeavour to obtain not less than five guineas for the building fund. (Cheers.) In answer to a question touching the amount of the build ing fund, The CHAIRMAN said they considered 10,0001. the starting point. They bad nearly 9,000/. already, sad it would probably require from 14,00/. to 15,000/. to clear off all the e xp e n s e s in commie° with the building. Mr. HUTU seconded the motion for adopting the report, which was carried. . . . _ The Is;i-yi;;;Weleetion of five children into them) schools, making the total number of children 67. took place yester day at the Loudon Tavern. The ballot opened at 12 o clock, and closed at 3. The names of the suoceadd candidates will be announced by advertisement. METROPOLITAN POLICL—The Metropolitan police consisted at the dose of bast year of 6.817 men, an itmresme of 631 since the beginning of the year. The cost of this force amounted to 491.426 L, of which the ratepayers contributed 317,3901., the government paid 133,8 V., and the rest was received from various public department. and companies (or the services of the police.

The annual dinner of this society, in commemo ration of the battle of Alexandria, was given last eight at the Freaneeens' Tavern. Sit DAVID BAIRD occupied the chair. The festival had been postponed from the 21st of Karel until reeterday, in consequence of the death of the Dubs of Kent. After the tout of " The Queen," the health of his Royal Highness the PALER Consort. as " Chief of the Highland Society," win dry* with Highland honours. The next toast, which was responded to with the same enthusiasm, , was The Prince of Wales, Duke of Rothesay, and Lord of the Isles, and the rest of the Royal Family.' The ouramsa then proposed " The Army and Navy," ce with " The Volunteers." u r d hLsoinntox returned thanks on the part of the army. On behalf of the navy Captain FORBES also schuss lodged the toast, and, in doing so, gave from his own per sonal recollections a description of the campaign in Egypt, in which Atiercombie fell. The COMMAS eked the company to drink, in silence, to " The Memory of Abercrorubie and the heroes who fell with him." He remarked on the extraordinary valour dis played on that occasion by the Scottish troops, and the testimony borne to their prowess by Sir J. Burgoyne. " The Health of the Chairman," who was stated to be the grandson of Sir David Baird, who lost his arm at Co ronae, was enthusinatically received. Tothe toast, "The Survivor. of the Victory of Alexandria," Captain JAY and Captain Fognmi, who bad both taken a part a that remarkable campaign, briefly returned thanks. " The President of the Highland Society" and " The London Scottish Volunteers" were given and drunk with applanee. Lord ELCHO returned thanks for the latter tout, and in a few words bore testimony to the efficiency of the volunteer corps which he had the honour to command. Various other toasts, including "The Ladies," followed. Mr. Donald King, the only profesaional engsged on the occasion, particularly distinguished himself by singing the popular and graphic song " The Death of Abercrombie." The piper of the society, as well 168 Lord Fife's piper, and the pipers of the Caledonian Society owl of the Scottish Volun teers, played a succession of national airs during the even ing. Mr. Spencer discharged the duties of toastmaster. REPORT OP rat l!alrY COUNCIL ON EDUCATION. The annual report of the Committee of Privy Council on Education has just been imued, and is more brief than usual. Refening to the more voluminous re port of the Royal Commiesiouers, the committee state that they have not bad sullicient time to examine it with the care which it deserves, and that, in expectation of it, they have prepared nothing more thee a summary of the results of their administration in 1660 to prefix to the reports of the inspectors of schools. Is that year the number of children in the schools inspected was increased by no less than 82,801, but the number of pupil teachers by only 311, of certificated teachers by 833, of students in training for teachers by 32. Capitation grants were paid on 14.315 more children, who, therefore, must have attended 176 whole I days and paid a school fee. New schoolacconiradation wee created for 52,227 children. Want schools make some pro , geese ; the percentage of the children who were under five years of age, 1217 in 1859, was io 1880 1275 in the schools receiving annual grants, and 12.51 in the schools visited for simple inspection only. The 64 inspectors and assistant inspectors visited daily schools in which they found 962,932 children, under 7,249 certificated teachers, with 14,949 ap prentices. They also visited pauper schools with above 25,000 children, and ragged or industrial schools with 6,172; but industrial schools receiving goveniment aid are now to belong to the department of " Law and Justice," and be under the Home Secretary, and no public grant will be made to refugee, homes, or as‘ lums, unless they are rati fied or isnetioned by him. The bill now pawing parliageent gives great facilities for getting the= bed f& the reception of children attending them as day boarders, or wholly maintained in them, under the order of a magistrate. In the ordinary 'chalk inspected 64 per cent. of the children had attended at the same school for more than a year, 42 per cent. for more than two years—both pro portions above the avenge of the last *even years ; 29 per cent. were above 10 years of age, 19 per sent. above 11, bat both these proportions are rather under the average. In the schools receiving annual grants, reading was reported to be well or fairly taught in 6,679 out of 7,508, writing in 6.788 out of 7,486, arithmetic in 6,235 out of 7,459; but that does not show how many children become proficient, but in how many schools these rudiments of knowledge are suffi ciently well taught, and may be lament by replier and diligent scholars. Inspected schools, with an average atten dance of 8113,706, had an income (exclusive of the mortis ' mentary grant) of 695,388/., of which 302,7311. was obtained from school pence; the average animal expenditure from local or private sources was 1851. 41. por scholar. The average annual income of certificated masters was about 9 4 1 . ; of certificated mistresses above 623., in infant schools rather less ; of uncertificated niaxters and =strewn above a third leas than of certificated; lint at least half the masters and mistresses were Kendal with a house. 34 per cent. of the children in schools receiving gut eninient grants rani les than 241. a week. STATUIS OF PALIFAV IN PORCELAIN. —There iv as exhibition at Meurn. Daniell'', 129. New Bond-street, a remarkable specimen of nrinufacture in porcelain, namely, a statue of Adieu, the famous potter, above six feet high, and executed with great delicacy. It is the largest piece of porcelain that has yet been manufactured, and is the work of M. Gine, an artist in that material near Paris. It is de signed from the picture in the Louvre. Hitherto the mani pulation of porcelain for works of art proper has been con. fined to statuettes ; the success of this work will probably lead to its employment for statues, se it possesses some ad vantages over marble, especially in respect of its adaptabi• lily to giving expression to the features, a point which is very observable in this representation of Paliesy. ilk.rmse al 4 . 0;1;1.,i3 :I• . arker, 8011. anti Bourn.
