HEATH did well on Thursday in bringing to the notice of the Court of Common Council the overcrowded state of the streets in the immediate vicinity of the Mansion house ; but might he not have extended his observations to a score of other equally dangerous localities east of Temple-bar I Another member of the Common Council, in seconding the resolution, remarked that he had been recently knocked down in crossing the Poultry, and seriously hurt ; stating, very truly, that during the busiest parts of the day it is now next to impossible to cross Chapala' in safety ; whilst Mr. Alderman SALOMONS, who also related his experiences in the dangers of City walking, seemed to think that the remedy for the evil lay in providing more stands at which such cabs as have set down their fares may take up a position until they are again wanted. In short, although there was considerable discussion respecting this daily-increasing evil, no practical remedy was suggested for what every day threatens the lives of some thousands of her MAJtorrint sub jects, or for the dangers to life and limb which have to be encountered by every one who has to cross any of the great thoroughfares in the City of London. Coming from the west, the perils of the streets are first felt the moment the foot passenger passes through Temple-bar. Soldiers who have faced without fear Russian guns at Sebastopol and mutinous Sepoys in India, hesitate ere they attempt to cross over Fleet-street opposite Chan cery-lane. In theory the feat may be easy enough, but let no one attempt it unless accustomed to the work. For even a very active man, • member of the Alpine Club, or one who has been accustomed to dodge savage cattle or wild animals, it is per haps not much more dangerous than • journey on some of our railway lines. By seizing exactly the proper moment, getting close behind • four wheeler, and following that vehicle until an open ing is visible in the other line of carriages, it is not improbable that a foot passenger may get same the street with no greater injury than a pulse beating double time after the danger he has gone through. But, on the other hand, he may not be so fortunate. If his foot slips, if a railway van is coming up or going down the street, or it the vehicle behind the protecting four-wheeler is an omnibus, tho driver of which playfully tries to pole the cab which covers the pedestrian's ad vance, then his chance of landing in safety is small indeed, and if a wiso man he will prefer any loss of time by going through the most roundabout bye lanes to the chance of losing his life in crossing over Fleet otreet. Bat, after all said and done, what is the west end of Fleet-street to that corner where it meets the three great thoroughfares of Ludgate-hill, Farringdon-street, and Blackfriars ? There, in deed, has even he who knows London best to pause ere he trusts himself in this Redan of danger . Nor do those on foot fare the worst at this spot. Happy is the man who being bound for the rail way station can afford, if he is in a cab, to lose five or ten minutes or a quarter of an hour. If he cannot do so, he is pretty safe to be late for his train. Or let him get safely past this diffi culty, how long will it take him to get to the top of Ludgate-hill t For several hours of the day a couple of steps backward have to be taken for one forward, all the way from the corner of Blackfriars to St. Paul's. To get round that building is easy enough, but the pedestrian or carriage driver finds his troubles increased tenfold so soon as he gots into Cbeapside. Wondering whether he has seen the worst of the City traffic, or whether any unknown dangers lie beyond the region he bas already traversed, he comes to the King's-street crossing, and acknowledges that the worst confusion in Fleet-street is as a quiet church when compared with what he now beholds. To get in at the west end of Cheapside is one thing, he finds, but to get out at the Poultry end quite another ; nor does he find matters mended as he draws towards the Mansion-house, where, from 10 a. x. to 6 P. m. daily, save Sundays, there is a perpetual war going on between the drivers of hansoms, four wheelers, omnibuses, carts, vans, drags, carriages, gigs, and all kinds of vehicles, on the one side, and every pedestrian on the other. But opposite the Mansion-house is not so dangerous as the corner of Cornhill and Gracechurch-street ; nor is the latter nearly •so bad as opposite the statue in King William-street. In short, the man who has to traverse the City on foot runs considerable risk of losing his life twenty times a day, while he who does so in oab or carriage cannot reckon upon the time at which he will reach his destination within at least half an hour. There is little doubt but that the members of the wealthiest community in the whole world are put to more inconvenience on account of the enormous traffic) in their streets than would be borne by aby otter maple ; and day by day the evil gets greater, instead of dimi nishing. Whet remedy is there for this annoyance ? Several members of the Common Coaacil appear to think that if cabs were not the streets the danger of would be greatly lessened. A But the - natin;ll enemies loite! City are the van drivers, the men conducting carts with two, three, or more homes, and the fast-driving gentlemen who travel in their own traps for wholesale houses. Poor cabby is a well abused man, and has many sins of his own to answer for, but fierce driving in a crowded street is not one of these. The worst offenders are the drivers of the big vans, who often seem as if they would really rather prefer run ning over a man or two than otherwise. In fact, owing to the very slight control they have over their horses, it is • matter of thankfulness that they kill or injure so few people in the course of the year. The punishments inflicted upon these men for careless driving should be much more severe than at present, and the City police should be much more strict than they are in taking notice of any injury done by cart, van, or omnibus to any other vehicle. If, as Mr. M.G mann suggested at the Court of Common Council, the police regula tions respecting the traffic on London-bridge were extended to Cheapside, the inconvenience of the City in this respect would be very much less ened. But why not enforce these rules in every street where wheeled vehicles abound 4 It is won derful what a little order and regularity will do in small as well as great matters. A couple of score of policemen would be sufficient to enforce order amongst all the carriages, and carts, and cab. from Temple-bar to Whitechapel ; and if Cannonstreet were made more use of, the task would be all the easier. At present, whilst Cheapside is so crowded that carriages have to move from ono end to the other at • snail's pace, Cannon-street is as deserted as the Grande Rue of a fifth rate provincial French town. To remedy this no omnibus, cart, van, cab, or car riage ought to be allowed to pass from the Mansion-house down King William-street, save those that had come down Comb& This would very soon cause the stream of traffic that flows east ward to divide at St. Paul's, and a large portion of the river would betake itself to the new bed of Cannon-street. The London-bridge regulation should also extend to Fleet-street, although not so much required as in Cheapside. For the dangers of that fearful middle passage, at the corner of Cornhill, Leadenhall-street, Bishopsgate, and Gracechurch-street, the only remedy is a still stronger body of police than is at present stationed there, and no carte or vans being allowed to pass the spot except before or after tho busiest hours of the day. At the Court of Common Council on Thursday, Mr. HEATH'S motion, we are told by the report, was agreed to ; but as that motion merely called attention to the necessity of pro v'cling a greater number of cab-stands, it is more than questionable whether any practical good will be effected thereby. It may increase the number of fines which cabmen have to pay, but it will not greatly lessen the dangers of the City streets, nor the number of accidents in the course of the year. gbe Court.

They are to be found at Milan and Sienna. Last week one was formed in Florence itself. The members of those societies pursue the absolute emancipation of civil society from religious jurisdiction. They aim at enabling people to die without the aid of a priest—which is impossible at present, as almost everywhere in Italy the cemeteries belong to the religious communities. At the inaugural meeting of the Florence Society, there was • discussion on • project for purchasing the land necessary for establishing a cemetery, which would dispense with the consecrations of the church."

An exception, however, must be made in the cam of Mr Alsolom, who, as Bob Acres, played u if he bad boss idea of what comedy ought to be. As the gentlemen who favoured the company with these recitations had reached, to say the boat of it, an advanced period of boyhood, it would hardly have been too much to expect that they should have takes a little mom pains to realise the seems the acting of which they had undertaken. At Westminster School we we every year a great advance in the style of acting, and we do not me why the King's College scholars, with so mach wider a range, should not imitate the careful acting and genuine comic vivacity of their western contemporaries. The distribution of prime elicited the usual magoaninfous and enthusiastic cheering Item the non-prizaholders, and peculiar emphasis was given to the emigretalations which were awarded to Mr. Do le Hoke, the professor of draw ing'', pupils. The works of these young gentlemen were exhibited in the vestibule, and taking for granted— ' which we were solemnly mowed that they bad not been retouched by the in tear, they were really very spirited and creditable. One pupil bed. produced • splendid copy of one of • Boa Bonheur's wonderful horses, and another • splendid head from the antique. There were also some very charmiog landscapes, both plain and coloured, and, taken altogether, the exhibition was far beyond what one is accustomed to see on similar eocasiom. Great credit is due to Mr. De Is Motto, who has between two and three buodred pupils to look alter, for the mood principles of art which he has inculcated, and the grace sod freedom of touch which he has imparted, and which are the general characteristics of the works of his pupils. After the distribution of the irises a little gentle speechmaking was indulged in by Mr. Cheer*, Dr. Jell, and Dr. liejdr, and the popularity of both the latter gentlemen was satisfactorily established by the vociferous cheering of the boys.

(7BOX 00Z OWN PARIS, ftwAy Evzinzio7 The may.zs of Mans and Cherbourg have set a wholesome example, and one which cannot fail to exercise a considerable influence upon the organisa tion of the municipalities throughout the country. Not being elected municipal councillors they have resigned their mayoralties, not thinking it decent to held them by the mere appointment of the Em peror against the will of their fellow citizens. After this, and in the present temper of men's minds in France, it will be very difficult in any case to appoint a mayor wko has not been elected a municipal councillor. The errors of the earlier announcements of the Constitutiosinel are being corrected every day, and there can be no doubt that when the returns shall be finally made up, a process which will take some time, a very unmis takable and unprecedented demonstration in a liberal sense will be found to have been made. The name of the gentleman stabbed by his con cilrge in the Parc des Princes is Count Chairman.

The Emperor has sent M. de Bassani) to Brussels, to see King Leopold, whose state of health is re ported to be worse. General d'Hautpoul, grand referendary of the Senate, died yesterday at bis property at Saint Papoul, near Carcassoue. He belonged to the old noblesse of Languedoc, and bore the title of m►rquis. He was born at Versailles at the beginning of the the famous year 1789, his father being at the time a cavalry officer. He entered the army early in life, and being wounded at the battle of Arapiles, was made prisoner, and taken to England, where be re mained till the conclusion of peace. His political career commenced in 1830, when he was elected a deputy for his native department of the Aude. He kept that seat till 1846, when be was made a peer of France. At the elections for the Legislative Assembly, after the revolution of February, the electors of the Aude were again faithful to him, and sent him to the chamber, with an escort of 40,000 votes. He was mad e Minister at War in the cabinet of Oct. 31, and in 1860 ho went to Algeria as governor-general. After the coup d'etat he was put upon the list of the nominal and ephemeral consultative commission ; and at the creation of the Senate he was made one of its principal officers. He has not held any office under the empire. It is announced that the Empress will give no fate at Fontainebleau, and that her stay there is a " sort of retreat" until the Emperor's return.

A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune describes an interview which took place last mouth in Great Salt Lithe City, between ex-Speaker Colfax and Brigham Young. Mr. Colfax's travelling companions and the Mormon dig niteries were presses. Of polygamy the writer says : " On this subject we bare hid a long, frank, and very free conversation with Brigham Young and several of WS leading men, and at verious times during the week with • very considerable number of the bishops and elders not present at our interview this afternoon. Is all these on. venatioos Mr. Colfax and his party have sot hesitated to express titer coudeinoation of the system, and to say that it is under the ben of the entire civilised world. In several of these couversations we have told them frankly that, is our judgment, the nation would never sanction it by receiving Utah as • state until the whole this( was wiped out. The law of congress on this sub ject, as all other laws, we assure them mast be obeyed. Alter exhanstiog all topics in regard to the history, re swiss, topography, and extent of the territory, President Young himself introduced the t vie of polygamy, and for an hour all the arguineate for • plurality of wives were pre vented by Brigham and his friends, and all those at the command of Mr. Colfax and his party wore manfully plied against tie polygamous gentlemen. Sharp retorts were abundant ow both sides, and it is very likely both parties at the close believed as firmly es ever ia their own peculiar dorms. As to the facts we have been able to gather, our convictioes in regard to the demoralising effects of poly. gamy, are, if possible, more decided than ever before. The mu who practice it have been educated by one father and one mother, and, therefore, the full results of the system will not appear till long after the present generation of adults are dead, should it continue to be tolerated by the government and the people of the nation. The want of proper parental instruction that must exist where polygamy is practised, and the utter degradation .1 women, incidental and inseparable from the system, will as sorely in the cad fall upon Anelo.ffaxon polygamists u they do upon the Orientals or any other bathes nation. AS at the South slavery was practised by the wealthy and isSusetlal, so this peculiar vice in indulged in mainly by the leading and wealthy men among the Mormoss, some is; aufouth, some think more, sad some Ws, while the majority, and some of the leaden as well, have but one wife each. While the men who have two or more wives pretend to be thoroughly convisoed that they are doing right, se are soured that there is sot an intelligent Mumma woman in the territory who, when her real southeast. cen be known, approves of polygamy. Whatever opinions we may form of the men, all who know anythingof the misery they suffer, must pity the Mormoo womee. To us they appear dejected aod, many of them, heart-broken ; and as time rolls on the essential evils of the system most become the more apparent sad revolt ing. To degrade woman from being the conapasios and crown of ber husbaod to a life of mere serfdom, minis tering to the lusts of men, and merely giving birth to other human animals, is the inevitable tendency and sure result of polygamy—an unclean, abominable thing, which must sot and menet he psi maiiently tolerated in this civilised Christian republic. The sooner this determination ie ns der,tood by those who practice it the better; for, like all festering sores, the longer it is Inn:lured, the more difficult of removal end the more dangerous it brume*. Our con. versatioo with Brigham Young and his leading men leads , us to believe that they begin to caderstend their position, and in parting all of us expreased the hope that es they claimed polygamy was permitted, said in some came com manded by a new revelatioo, their high priest might have another, peremptorily forbidding the system. This would certainly be • peaceful and most happy way to remove the bet foul blot upon the national character. Let the revela tion be speedily made, and Brigham Young will complete one of the most eventful and the most wonderful personal histories made during the present g tine. " The business done by the merchants of Salt Lake City is truly immense.

A communication from Madrid contains the subjoined :—" The hostility of the bishops and neo catholica is becoming daily more violent ; the pro tests are becoming more numerous, and the columns of the so called religious journals are encumbered with signatures more or less apooryphal. Even were they all authentic no great importance should be attributed to them, for in the great majority of the villages of the Peninsula the curd has preserved, not certainly a very great prestige, but at least a certain authority, which at a given moment may lead the ignorant classes to take part in different kinds of manifestations. Among the most recent addresses of the prelates, those of the Bishops of Lugo and Cuenca are remarkable for their intem perate language. The principal object of their attacks is the press : the journalists are spoken of personally in the most offensive manner. The Bishop of Cuenca, in imitation of that of Tarazona, is especially angry with M. Posada Herrera, and I calls on the Queen to force her Minister of the Interior to make a public and solemn profession of faith. Those ecclesiastics believe they may still exercise their dominion as in the middle ages, and would no doubt like to compel M. Poaada Herrera to do penance at the door of a church, barefooted and with a taper in his hand. The Pensiamenfo Espanol publishes a protest against the recognition of the kingdom of Italy, dated from Artajous, in the province of Navarre, and signed by 1,500 per sons. The village, however, contains only a thou sand souls. The genuineness of the rest may be judged by this example. Mgr. Claret, confessor to the Queen, left yesterday evening for Barcelona, and the neo-catholic journals declare that he will not return to the court." The Indepetedanee Beige says :—" The reply of the Italian government to the note in which Spain announces its recognition of the new kingdom is already on its way to Madrid. The tenour of this diplomatic document, as far as known, is said to be moat satisfactory for the Spanish government." The Dean of Carlisle says that, as things now are, " hoe. gentlemen are borne into St. Stephen's on the turbid wave of rational intoxication." He thinks there will be no improvement until there is a prohibitory law actiMst the ',le and public use of stimulants during the elections.
