THE ROYAL HUMAYS The anniversary meeting of this society was held yesterday,at the Freemasons' Tavern, at half-peat 2 o'clock l • the Duke of Sourness, M.G., in the chair. It appeared from the report reed by Mr:;.T. H. Limbton (the secretary), that during the past year 156 cuss, latently' with risk to the lives of 167 persons, had been brought under the notice of the society, and of the persons so immersed, 172 were successfully treated, the remaining 15 having been ' pest recovery. Amon g th ese uumber s were included 27 cases of attempted suicide. During the same period the society, conferred as rewards for gallantry to those who risked their own lives to save the lives of their fellow-creatures, 24 honorary silver and 65 honorary braise medals, and 14 vellum and 16 parchment testimonials. They also voted pecuniary rewards to 72 other persons (including landlords of receing-houses for prompt admission and treatment of bodies) for their exertions, and for affording accommodation for medical treatment. During the last twelvemonth no less than 68,792 persons bathed in the Serpentine river in the morning and the evenings, when the society's boats were in 'attendance, and out of that number there were 27 casualties, of which two were fatal, from not having been discovered until beyond recovery. Five other individuals were also saved from committing suicide, through the watch- ' fulness and prompt exertions of the society's boatmen. Dur ing the late frost the skaters and sliders in the parks and Kensington-gardens were estimated at 563,470, of whom 146 had been rescued from drowning by the applisoces of the society, viz., 15 in the Regent's-park, 51 in Kensington gardens and Hyde-park, and 80 in St. James's-wk. The committee gratefully acknowledged the valuable aid ren dered by the medical officers of the society, whose gratuitous services had been cheerfully and readily rendered for the fitifilment of the objects of the institution, and which • had been one great cause of its somas. Since the establish ment of the society the number of lives saved and restored in this country, and mostly in or near the metropolis, was 30,000. The CHAIRMAN presented Dr. Christian with the gold medal of the society, as an acknowledgment of his ham& during the apace of 15 years, rendered his gratuitous eel vicee to the society, and for having saved many lives by his exertions. Ho also presented a silver medal to Dr. Mackin tosh, who swam to the relief of a soldier who sank whilst bathing near Fort George, Guernsey, on the 9th of July, 1859.

Though the &mould of work during the last ' mouth has accomplished ,scene whisk seem almost magical the gardens are lig se masa finished, or even Dearly complete in all their sagehile derails. The centre reservoir has merely bees bricked round, and therefore only holds sae* water to mark its future purpose. Only two of the trout streams on the eastern side have been completed. None of the niches for statuary have been filled, and only • few of the handsome stow and marble vane with which the piers of all the terrace balustrades will be surmounted arc yet placed. The band-houses, too, Sr. sot begun ; the stone stops of the terraces will be represented tomorrow by wooden substitutes, and of the beautiful) -designed balus trade which is hereafter to surmount almost the whole length of lofty arcade, only • few feet have been put is positioo, as a specimen of what the general effect will ulti nately be. The reamer for hosts will not yet be filled : no fountain' will play, aid the great cascade which is to fall into the chid reservoir will not be finished for a couple of months or so. la addition to all this, also, much has to be dose towards completing the ultimate colour decorations of the arcades, and above all in carving their massive stone capitals and leoemoot4, only one of each of which is sow cut to show what the whole will be when finished. Yet, notwithstanding all these drawbacks, the grounds already (says the Tama) look like a miniature fairyland, sod as the visitor's eye range* over the roped) diversity of lawns and shrubberies, parterres and terraces, he will not ' unnaturally think, when such effect, are produced from little more than half-finished grounds, the cusp trail which they most present when complete will be eomethieg toi -1 equalled in the history of terraced gardens. The parterres, with their winding and involved paths, inlaid with various kinds of coloured stone, broken fine, are now all finished, and their effect is charming, and for ones surpasses the expectations formed from the pictorial design on paper. The great conservatory is also entirely finished, with its outer verandah facing the smith. The whole interior of this beautiful building is painted with light, cool, neutral colours, which will har monise well with the plants it is to contain, and also with the light sod slender proportions of the streams heel!. The background of this, with its double arcade and gallery above, is one of the gems of the garde.. On doable banks in this conservatory, and aloe. the ' wall-side of the semicircular arcade which extends from both ends down into the gardros,will be arranged the flower show of to morrow. On the •UCC•II of this display wowed scarcely add that the llorticultund Society have spared no trouble; mid we are told that the exhibition, both for the somber, sterilises, and variety el the speeinsme, will be ' the finest that has been seen for many years.

NEW RAGGED SCHOOLS IN ST. °mars, SOUTRWARK. The opening of these schools, situate in Lent street, Southwark Bridge-road, was yesterday afternoon Inaugurated by a public meeting held in the school house, a handsome and substantial building, :containing two com modious school rooms, well ventilated, one for boys and one for girls, each capable of containing :10Uschohms, besides other conveniences. Previous to the meeting the Bishop of Winchester, accompanied by the parochial clergy, weal over the building, aod expressed himself highly pleased with his hass d on declaring it to be the best and most conve nient ' School-house he had yet seen.

Mr. PiaioN, the treasurer, stated that the committee had received in contributions from the parishioners 4001., from collections after set mous in the parish churches, 1001., and from proceeds of a Isizaar held by ladies of the parish, the sum of 360/., making their total receipts 860/.; they had expended about 1,150/. in the purchase of the ground awl the cost of the building, and deducting certain pro mised contributions which had not yet been paid in, the liabilities of the committee were now about MOE The meeting was addressed by the Bishop of Winchester, by the Right Hon. Sir Joseph Napier, Mr. H. Hoare, Messrs. %lame, Hirt, and other gentlemen, after which a collection was made to which the Bishop of Winchester, the London and Westminster Bank, and Messrs.

At six o'clock a tea meeting took place, after which another public meeting wee held, at which addresses were delivered by several of the local clergy and inhabitants, and another collection made. The Rev. Hugh Allen announced that he expected the amount received would clear elf the liabilities of the committee. SUSPENSION OP THE HULL AND EAST RIDING BANK. 1 Considerable excitement was created at Hull yesterday morning by a rumour which was very early cit. enkted to the effect that Messrs. T. and R. Rarkaa's b a nk, known as the Hull and East Riding Bank. lad stopped, and in all parts of the town numbers of people might be men clustered together in earnest couvemation respecting the affair, whilst Scalobate, the place where the business of the bank was carried on, was crowded during the early part of the day with perilous eager to get information respecting the affairs of the bank. The follow ing notice was posted up on one of the shutters ' Messrs. T. and R. Raikes and Co. deeply regret being obliged to suspend payment. The accounts of the bank are being made up, and will be submitted to the creditors in a few days.—Hull, June 3, 1861." The bank is one of the oldest in Hull, and the business transacted by the company at one time was very consider able. The company drew upon Currie arid Co., of London, and the name of Currie was some years ago included in the firm, but is not at present. Since the stoppage some years ago of Messrs. Harrison and Watson's bank scares any event has happened in the town that has mused greater seusation, or a more general mint to be felt. It had been for some time past rumoured in the town that the bank was in a declining position, and the majority of the depositors have recently reduced their balances at the bank to such an extent that the company have experienced a more than ordinary drain upon their resources, and to the want of confidence on the part of the depositors is partly attributed the suspension at the present juncture. Mr. R. Heiken, a most active partner, is a very highly re spected gentleman, and is an hart Hiding magistrate The liabilities are not yet known, but it is asserted that they will not exceed 40,01)1W., and that the assets are sufficient to pay nearly 10e. in the pound. FIRST SUR,ItHY RIFLER—On Saturday last this corps went by specialtrain to Wimbledon, for light infantry and battalion drill. On reaching the windmill on the com mon ten rounds of blank cartridge were served out to each titan, and notwithstanding that the rain fell incessantly all the afternoon, the 61e nail volley firing was very good. ' The battalion, after two hours' drill in the wet, preceded by their two bands, marched home through Waadsworth, Clapham, Acre-lane, to Camberwell, where they were dis missed. The iospection of the battalion by Colonel M'lliurilo is fixed for Thursday, June 20.

I LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 4, 1861. MUSIC. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. List night Mario made his first appearance this 'Neon in Count Alinaviva, a character in which he has always been, and still is, unrivalled. We have not for years , seen him looking so well as he is doing at present, nor beard him in such full possession of his beautiful voice. We need scarcely say that he received, on his entrance, the cordial welcome so justly his due ; and during the whole evening he delighted the audience by the ease, grace, warmth, and gaiety of his acting, and still more by the ex quiaite sweetness and finish of his singing. His style, nowu-days, is seldom ;heard, and is be coming rarer arid rarer every day. He is one of the 171iNtt Ronianorx in—the singers of the pure Italian school— the few, yet remaining, who know bow to sing the music of the last great master of that school as it ought to be sung ; who do not depend for producing effect upon the emission ~f some loud and piercing notes at the extreme altitudes of the mile, but upon purity and equality of tone, the round and finished utterance of every vocal phrase, refinement of em bellishment, and truth of expression. In all these qualities Mario still leaves the most distinguished of his rivals far behind ; and from the strength and vigour be displayed last night, he seems likely to do so fora long time to come. Roomed is another of those singers, nurtured in the pure Italian school, who suffers much dleadvantage in singing the music of the present day. About his transcendent ' qualities as an actor, both in tragedy and comedy, there cep , be but one opinion ; but he is too often compelled to force his voice till it becomes harsh and untunable ; and people who hear him do so forma mistaken estimate of his vocal powers. Hear him sing Moat's Ifasetto, as be did • few evenings ago, and Rossini 's Figaro as he did lest night, and then you discover what lie really is. Not only is his Figaro the most truly comic picture of the inimitable Spanish barber now on the stage, but it is equally remark able for the perfect execution of the music. The Rosina of last night was Madame Miolan Carvalho. It was a very pleasing and successful performance. Her acting was lively, intelligent, and graceful, and she sang with great brilliancy i committing the fault, however—a very common one in this part—of sometimes loading the music with redundant erne meut. This was especially the case in the duet between Rosin& aod Figaro, " Dunque io sow)," to which it is impossible to add a note in the way of embellish. ment without spoiling the composer's design. Ciaapi's Bsrtholo was clever and laughable, but his humour occasionally savoured of buffoonery ; and the constant en deavour to be fuuny made him take too many liberties with the music. Tagliafico—always intelligent and judicious— gave excellent effect to the part of Baulk,. His singing of Ithe famous air, "La calunnia" was admirable. On the whole this opera—the best work of its class in existence—was a delightful entertainment, and received the applause it de served. MR.

DEATH OP VICE•ADMIRAL SIR RICHARD MAUNDERS DUNDAS, 8.C.8. -0-- We sincerely regret to have to announce the sudden death of the above gallant Admiral, senior naval Lord Commissioner of the Admiralty. The melancholy event took place yesterday, shortly after noon, at his resi dence in New-street, Spring•gardens, under painfully sudden . - circumstances. The respected and gallant officer attended divine service, sensual, at St. Matthew's Chapel, apparently in poosession of excellent health, and yesterday morning descended to breakfast at his customary hour • After partaking frugally of that meal, he complained of illness, and left the room for his bed-chamber to lie down, but still finding no relief, medical aid was called in. Dr. Freeman was sent for, but bad only been a short time in attendance when the gallant admiral expired. We un derstand the cause of death was disease of the heart. The late Sir Richard was the second son of Robert Saunders Dundee, second Viscount Melville, by Anne, daughter and co-heir of Richard Huck Saunders., and was born 11th April, 1802. On leaving Harrow School, at the age of 13, he entered the Royal Naval College, and in June, 1817, first went afloat as a volunteer on board the Ganymede, 26 guns.

June 18, 1821 ; commander, June 23, 182.1; captain, July 17, 1824; rear-admiral, July 4, 1833; and vice-admiral, February 24, 1858. The late Sir Richard was a Grand Officer of the Legion of Honour, and bad received t►e honorary degree of D.C.L. from the University of Oxford. The lamented deceased was brother of General Viscount Melville wad the Hon. Hobert Dundee, Store keeper-General of the Navy. The fleet at Spithead leaves this day for Gib raltar. Commanders O'Reilly and Bolton, RN., have left the mail packet service at Southampton. in consequence of their promotion. Lieutenant Ticket', R.N. has been re•apponated naval mail agent on the 111:uthamptaa statues. SPORTING INTRLLIGENOR.

Money changed hands with a rapidity which augured well for the final adjustment of balances, which will take place to-morrow (Tuesday), and altogether the buaineu of prying and receiving is likely to be aunty arranged. It would of course be premature to enter into any detailed account of the winners and losers until the " winding-up act" is accomplished, but it may be lately stated that the result of the Derby and Oaks has inflicted no heavy blow on the ring, and exercised no sore discouragement over backers of horses.

THE GALWAY POSTAL SURSI DT.—Yester'day's Freeman's Journal say.—" The popular movement in favour of the restoration of the postal subsidy grows mare intense as the crisis matures. Throughout all Ireland yes terday petitions were numerously signed. In Dublin the petitions, we undentand, will contain some 90,000 signa tures, all obtained in an hour or two. The Dublin Corpo ration. headed by the Lord Mayor, accompanied by the o6lco bearers, proceed to London t o-day, and will presen. their petition at the tar of the Commons, In state, to. morrow. Galway, which has a deep interest in the ques tion, has been much excited. Meetings of the Town and Harbour Commissioners will take place today, and peti tions, which were most numerously signed yesterday, will be despatched by this night's post. The Town Commis sioners and people of Curlow have also met and forwarded • petition to the borough member, Sir Jobn Acton, with • request that the county members will support its prayer, which no doubt Masan. liruen and Bunbury will do most cheerfully. We also learn that the boards of guardians throughout Ireland will petition for the maintenance of the contract. Since the idea of " simultaneous meetings," which Steil originated during the emancipation struggle, so movement in Ireland has been so universal as that whit* now agitates Ireland. May we hope ministers will pay be coming regard to this expression of national feeling and opinion." EXPORT OF COAL, &c., PROM LIVERPOOL. —Dieser& J. and J.

Additional) LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—JrNE 3. Bittinp in Banco at Westrninster.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn, and Justices Wightman, Crompton, and Blackburn.) IN RE REAL-CHURCH RATE. Yr. Collier moved for a rale to show muse why further proceedings in "Adams and another v. Beal," a suit re lating to a church rate, pending in the Conaistory Court of London, should not lie staved. St. Bartholomew's, Sydow. hare, was, under the first (hutch Building Act, 5S Geo. 111., chap. 45, carved out of the parish of Lewisham, and made a separate ecclesiastical district, with a district church. The libel in the suit said that the defendant was liable to con tribute to any rates levied, not only for the repairs of the church, but for the payment of expenses necesamily inci dent to the decent celebration of divine worship therein, and to the office of churchwarden. The estimate on which the rate in question was based amounted to 2371. Is. 3d., but only 454 of that was devoted to the repair of the church, the rest being for water and gas rates, printing, stationery, contingencies, Ice. It was argued in the Coosa tory Court, upon demurrer, that the libel ought not to be admitted to proof, because the rate was illegal, and had been made on a minenstruction of the statute, but the judge overruled the objection and admitted the lion. The learned counsel now contended that, under the act of parlia ment, the rate, being raised for the repairs of the church, could not be devoted to any other purpose, and that if this court thought the judge of the Consistory Court wrong in his decision they had power to interfere and stay the pro ceedings. The court granted a role WM. COURT FOR DIVORCE AND MATRlmbibekar, CAUSES.—Juss 3. (Before the Judgo (hdioar7, Mr. Justice Wightmao, and Mr. Justice Williams.)

She was still very unwell; having heard that their lordships were sitting she had left her bed to come down to the court. She was afraid that she should be physically unable to go on with the case herself, and that it would ben to appoint counseL Sir C. Croswell said the court had had no idea of going on with the case to-day, nor would they appoint a day for that purpose until Miss Shedden applied to him to do so. Miss Shedden then left the court. WILDMAN V. WILDMAN, In the case of common jury one--Mr. fierjeant Parry applied to the court to excuse Mr. Woodin, • public entertainer, who had been summoned to serve on the jury. A similar application bad once been made to Lord Campbell on behalf of Mr. Charles Dickens, on the ground of his literary arrangements and Lord Campbell granted the request. Mr. Woodin's ate was really very much akin to that of Mr. Dickens. Sir C. Cromwell was afraid that he could not great the request. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The June genenil sessions of the pease for the connty of Middlesex commenced yesterday morningat the Court-house on Clerkenwell-green, before Mr. Bodkin, assistant-judge; Mr. Payne, deputy : and a bench of magistrates. The calendar contains the names or the large number of 100 prisoners for trial, a loner period than usual having elapsed since the last session. That circumstance was alluded to by the learned assistant judge in his charge to the eeaod jury. Of the PM prisoners, 84 were charged with fa y and 16 with miedemeanour. A great number of eases of larceny from the person were disposed of in the two courts, in the greater part of which the prisoners pleaded guilty. THE POLICE COURTS. • LAMBETH. Clear Sofia, an Italian monkey exhibitor, wee charged with the following offence : Frederick William Pearce, a boy of sixteen years of age, said that on Friday morning last he was going to acho and on passing along a railing the prisoner's monkey jumped upon his bead, and with its mouth and claws pulled a quan• City of hair out by the roots before the prisoner tub him off. On that (yesterday) morning he was going to school, when he saw the prisoner standing near the same place, and the moment he caught sight of him he followed hint as he ran away for the purpose, as he believed, of putting the moo. key on his head again, but he ran home as fast as he could. Mrs. Pearce, the mother of the witness, said that o• F r id a y morning her ton came home in a state of considerable terror, and compiained that e man with a monkey hail allowed it to jump on bill Lead, and it had hurt him very much. She examined his head, and found a piece as !Arnow; a five-shilling piece perfectly bare, the hair having been pulled out by the monkey. On that morning the boy left home for the purpose of going to school, but returned in a state of perfect alarm, and said he was followed by the monkey boy. She (witness) want out, and seeing the prisoner a short distance from her home, she followed him until she saw a policeman, and gave him into custody. A gentleman in the court interpreted the evidence to the prisoner, and asked him what he had to say to the charge, and he said he had never seen the boy before, and refused to may where he lived. At leugth, however, lie couseuted to go with the officer to where he resided, and the magistrate desired that this should be done. Ile also desired that in the meantime the monkey should be kept, as he should require hail for his (the prisoner s) future conduct. The prisoner parted with his monkey most reluctantly, and went with the officer, but neither had returned when the court closed.

The Secretary read the report for the past year, which stated the average attendance at the Sunday school was 138 ; at the day schools, 223 ; at the evening schools, boys, 35; girls, 33. The committee, in their last report, expressed a fear, from want of funds, they would be com pelled to close the boys' schools, but owing to the liberality of a gentleman, who offered the amount of the rent, 31/., as an annual subscription, they have been enabled to coo tame the schools as hitherto. Many of the boys and girls have obtained situations, 11 received the Ragged School Union prize for retaining their situations 12 months. Four girls have this year been placed in situations, and 12 boys are now in the shoe-black brigade.

Lord Henry Cholmondeley presided, and opened the proceedings by adverting to the benefit, which the institution hail conferred on Asiatics, Africans, and South Sea Islander.. It was a matter of regret that the institution should be so much in want of funds, but he hoped they would he liberally supplied. The report de tailed at some length the cruel treatment which Asiatics had experienced from lodging-house keepers before the eetablishmentof the Home. A great number of the lodging house keepers were what was called "crimps," whose policy it was to keep the Luaus in debt. Many illustrations of the &deluders which the Home conferred on the inmates were given in the report. The income for the year from all sources had been 9,14 v. 4s. 2d. ; the expenditure had been 5,130/. 11.. and the balance in hand feu 151. 12s. 4d. The committee earnestly appealed for in creased subscriptions. The adoption of the sepal was moved by the Rev. Mr. Lee, seconded by Major Oiberene, and unanimously agreed to. Other speakers addressed the audience, and a cordial vote of thanks to the chairman ter minated the business of the meeting.
