Ail remittances are, henceforth, to be made to Mr. JOHN CHAPLIN, at The Sun office, 112, Strand, who has been appointed, by the Lord Chancellor, Receiver and Manager of The Sun newspaper, and the outstanding debts due in respect thereof. A day later from New York is a day worse for the Federal cause. It increases the probability of a protracted war, and of Northern bankruptcy. We must not, indeed, jump to conclusions; in war, of all things, it were absurd to do so; still the struggle at Richmond is the crisis of the campaign, and everything up to this mail looks as if the Federal scale would kick the beam. But a short time ago the Federal troops landed on James, Island opposite Charleston, and as the city was presumed to be poorly defended, and the island almost commanded it, little doubt was enter tained that the capture of Charleston was to be the topic of 4th of July orations. By the China we learn that the terrible defeat of the brave but ill led Federal regiments has resulted in the abandonment of the island, raising, in fact, the siege of Charleston, and the withdrawal of the troops to Hilton Head, near Savannah, in Georgia, Both these cities, for whose capture we were looking every day, seem now likely to hold out for the summer, as probably will also Mobile, on the Gulf of Mexico—and how another campaign may begin and end, or whether it will ever begin or end in our time, it is not for mortals to predict. The only appearance of offensive action on the part of the Federals is that they have begun to bombard Vicksburg on the Mississippi, the only place of any strength or importance re maining to the Confederates on that River. It will, we presume, be taken by the Federal fleet, but when the China left it had not surrendered to Com mander FARRAGLT. On the other side the Mis sissippi, the Federal General CURTIS, who had penetrated into Arkansas, had withdrawn into Missouri. Of the state of things before Richmond nothing is allowed to transpire, and assuredly, in this case, no news cannot be construed as good news. We are told that it is believed that the fight of Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, was renewed on Saturday and Sunday, and that those days were in some way disastrous, it is next to impossible to doubt, since, under a sytem of government regulation of intelli gence we may be perfectly sure that any favourable turn of the conflict would be loudly proclaimed at once. The former news of the three days is strongly confirmed, and there is no more mention of strategic objects in the right wing of an army being "hotly pursued " by the enemy till it doubled back behind the left. We now read the more natural and in telligible account, that " M'CLELLAN was driven from his position on the Pamunkey River and the White House with great loss." The usual story, however, of both sides is given—this time it is of " fearful carnage on both sides." We can well be lieve it ; though how the beaten and retreat ing side should know the proportion of loss to the army which it left in possession of the field of battle, it is not easy to understand. It is, however, but too probable, for both sides have at least learned to fight with obstinacy and courage. The effect on the North is twofold—it has de pressed the money market, and increased the demand for men. Eighteen Governors have addressed the PRESIDENT, urging an increase of the army ; perhaps the plan was pre-arranged. The PRESIDENT has responded by calling for a fresh levy of 300,000 men. One way and another, not less, probably, than a million of men have been enlisted on the Federal side since the war began. Militia, volunteers, and regular soldiers, cannot be far short of that. What a contrast do things now present in their aspect to the eyes of the North since last 4th of July. Then the PRESIDENT asked for 400,000 men, that the war might be " short, sharp, and decisive !" It was reasonably thought, when the Congress voted him 500,000 men and 500,000,000 dollars, that such might be the case. The South would be overwhelmed, " the rebellion trampled out." Little did Mr. LINCOLN and Congress then think that the following anniversary of Independ ence would find the PRESIDENT still demanding troops by the hundred thousand. To what is this to grow ? If the North after the summer heats will be better prepared for action, the South will also have had opportunity to perfect its defensive arrangements. And we may fully expect, after the great ability it has shown, that it will be prepared to renew the war with greater energy than ever. Under these circumstances we cannot wonder to find two parties re-appearing at New York. Gold at 121 per cent. premium, and endless demands for men, have enabled the Peace-party to hold up their head. Hitherto to advocate peace would be, at N e w York, to secure a mobbing—per!laps, the further honours of tar and feathers. Now we read that on the Ist an enthusiastic Peace meeting was held at New York itself, the late Mayor being the principal Speaktr. We read also or a meetin g o f the Conservative members of Congress at Washing ton, and of a large Anti-Abolition meeting at New York. This last was of course a meeting in favour of treating with the Slave States on the basis of slavery, whether by separation or otherwise. In the Babel of cries one of the most earnest seems to be that for a prohibition of the export of gold; which simply means that Americans are to buy not hing here except what they can pay for in goods, nce no European would touch their paper. Inter vention 18 again feared, but the mention of it is angrily r ecei . ved • Medi a ti on i s more f avoura bl y re garded.

Of the South we hear little, but all we do hear indicates determination to resist.

Thus, HALLECK is bearded in the' line to which he had retired for summer quarters.l ' The report of General POPE, that he had captured 10,000 prisoners when BEAUREGARD fell back from Corinth, is entirely denied by the latter, and there is now no doubt that it was a simple lie !

LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 14, 1862. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 14, 1862. Govern'lent now reigns, and where the ladies give as much trouble i Is at New Orleans, the clergymen are also unconquerable. They will not take the oath of allegiance, and most of them have, there fore, been s;qat to prison ! Clergymen and women seem to g i ve th e Federal Generals no little trouble. Between the passi . ve resistance of the last, and the energetic and succes'ful efforts of its armies, the South, so far as this mail informs us, presents to the North a problem of increased difficulty. To say, however, " GOD prosper the right " is no easy task, when both sides have put themselves so much i in the wrong. Our veteran Premier has this last year introduced a notable change in the manner of the distribution of the annual £1,200 a-year set apart for Civil List Pensions according to the yearly pleasure of who is for the time being England's First Lord of the T of r e i a t s s ur It is a kind . that at we c h a a r ng e eager g t e o r o , a s t o o really o admirable Lord PALMERSTON, in this matter, the praise which is incontestibly his due. It is a simple modifica tion enough of the arrangement, when you come to look at it. A n d is consequently one that it is quite marvellous to reflect has never yet apparently en tered into the imagination of any one among Lord P.kLMERSTON'S predecessors. All the more odd it is, that the change we are about to specify has not been hitherto adventured upon by any other head of any former Administration, seeing that it is an im provement in the mode of distributing these yearly sums—amounting in all (between the 20th of June in one twelvemonth to the 20th of June in the one following) to £l,2oo—that has often and often of late years been urged upon the attention of our Premiers one after another. We ourselves have repeatedly argued, as perseveringly and as earnestly as we possibly could, in favour of each Premier ad vancing in the matter precisely in this given direction. We have insisted, namely, upon the urgent necessity of insulting no one by awarding to him or to her a wretched little dribblet of £25 per annum—in the name of this great and wealthy country, and in consideration of ser vices done by the recipients in the furtherance (so far as lay in their power) of the interests of art, of science, or of literature. We congratulate the coun try, we congratulate the Premier upon this decided and instantly visible change for the better in our yearly string of Civil List Pensions. Among all the fourteen recipients of varying proportions of the annual aggregate of £1,200, not one is pained by nomination to a pension henceforth of £25 per annum. The lowest amount awarded to anyone is £5O per annum—not quite £1 sterling for every week in the year: only just sufficient, with any degree of comfort, to keep body and soul together. Looking down the little catalogue of this chosen group of Fourteen, we observe moreover at a glance that not only is the annual sum of £5O the lowest that has been awarded, in the years last past 1861-1862, by Lord PALMERSTON, between one 20th of June and another—but that there are only three classes of recipients among the whole fourteen. The first class £lOO per annum. The second class, £75 per annum. The third and lowest class, as aforesaid, £5O per annum. In this manner the moderate aggregate of £1,200 is, of course, soon enough made up. How ?—map be at once indicated when we have said that there are three pensions of £5O per annum, making up £l5O altogether. There are two pensions of £75, making up another £l5O altogether. There are, consequently, distributed under these two heads or classes —among these five civil list pensioners —X3OO in all, out of the yearly total of £1,200. The remaining £9OO are distributed, in separate handreds, among nine, for the most part admirably well selected, recipients of—we won't call it the national bounty, for it is not that ; but we will rather call it the national tribute of respect, and of sympathy, and even in some instances of gratitude for services done ! Services throughout of the purest and of the most honourable description— services in the advancement of the interests of art, of science, and of literature. One of the three £5O pensions, it should be ob served, added to a previous award of £5O set apart a few years back to the same identical recipient, makes up for him henceforth, of course, a yearly pension of £lOO sterling—a very moderate pen sion, indeed, under the circumstance. As—who will not admit when the name and the reason of these two little sums now happily clubbed together come to be mentioned? Mr. R. CORT is the recipient, and the reason assigned for the giving to him of any pension at all is—that it is " on account of the great value and utility of his father's discoveries in the working of iron, and in his failure to derive any pecuniary benefit therefrom." That father of Mr. RICHARD CORT having by those same discoveries in the puddling of iron added to the material and realised wealth of the country since then, at the lowest computation, a -vast aggregate of £200,000,000 ! Reason enough, there, for this addi tional £5O pension, making up for the son of that wonderful benefactor of his country a very moderate pittance of £lOO per annum. The two other £5O pensioners are Mr. JOHN WADE and Mr. THOMAS ROSCOE. The latter in consideration of his literary labours generally. The former in consideration of his contributions more particularly to political literature. The two £75 pensioners are Miss EMMA ROBINSON and Dr. JOHN HART. The former in acknowledgment of her numerous " ro mances, historical plays, and other contributions to periodical literature of admitted excellence." The latter (Dr. HART) in return for his contributions to the science of anatomy and physiology, and of his being afflicted with blindness and broken health. As to the nine 1100 pensioners, it will be sufficient here simply to enumerate them. One of these nine—a pensioner for every muse—we have already parti cularised : namely, Mr, LEITCH RITCHIE, whose nomination to the list we were the first to announce. The other eight are—Mr. (or Dr.) CHARLES MACKAY, the popular song writer Mr. JOHN SEYMER, another (like Dr. HART already mentioned) alas ! literally " blind" de votee in the self-imposed labours of advancing and diffusing knowledge. Mr. GEORGE RAINEY is another of these rewarded labourers—in his in stance, in the fields of " Minute Anatomy and Phy siology." Mr. ISAAC TAYLOR is recompensed in this way also very moderately for no less than forty long years' meritorious literary toiling in the paths of history and philosophy. The reci pients of the two remaining £lOO pensions are four persons, and those four all ladies. Two of them (Miss ELIZABETH BALY and Miss MARIE JOSEPHINE FAITYET) in consideration of the merits and labours of Dr. BALY, the late eminent physician. The two others (Mrs. JANET WILSON and Miss JESSIE WILsoN) in consideration of the distinguished services and career of the late Professor GEORGE (not JOHN) WILSON, of Edin - of civ -il List pensionsdom,in with morefact,h avewes artsftin. Buteiadacacoatalogue burgh. one further improvement would we suggest in the future distribution of this £1,200 per annum placed year after year at the disposal of the Prime Minister of England. And that is, simply, that an occasional £2OO or £l5O per annum may be a warded, now and then, t o some persons of eminence s ufficient in the depa r t ments of literature, of sc i e nce, or of art. ROYAL I 7 ALIAN OPERA. MADEMOISELLE PATTI AS "NORINA." If the recent neglect of " Don Pasquale,"—a comic opera which must be regarded as only rank - ing second to the " Barbiere,"—is chiefly to be traced to the loss of Lablache, in his grand per formance of its hero —scarcely less is the neglect to be explained in the difficulty of finding an ade quate Norina—a character whose perfect treatment demands the greater art of the two. Indeed, as Norina is the exciting cause of the humour of the opera throughout, and consequently of all the comic distinctions of her lover, his entire develop ment, as a matter of course, must depend upon her own. How this was achieved by Grisi, its original representative, all who beheld her will readily admit; and, therefore, how much of the opera's success was originally owing to her efforts. What person and humour did for her great associate, equally huge in girth and spirit—genius itself accomplished for her, in enabling her 'to apply by a difficult process her humour to its great results. This difficulty is ex plained in the fact that Norina is a lady who has to assume the part of a virago. Her danger is, therefore, of becoming comic at a sacrifice of taste. Her danger is in fact twofold—that of a want of force, on the one hand, sufficient to render her humour palpable, and of delicacy, on the other, to prescribe its due expression. This is a difficulty which only a true artist is qualified to conquer by means of sympathies rightly developed, which en able her to render the humorous, the graceful. Norina must therefore be regarded, in a dramatic point of view, as a sort of test part for a singer, whose successful treatment is a voucher for her pro tensions as an artist. It was this circumstance which rendered Mdlle. Patti's anncuncement for the character one of the most attractive features of the programme which Mr. Gye issued for the present season. So many of the public felt that the forte of their young favourite lay in comedy, and knew that in this character her euecess must depend so much on her skill that no ordinary interest was attaehed to the performance that would attest it. It gives us great I pleasure to say that her most ardent (dmirers could not have desired an attestation mere conclusive. Her Norina is unquestionably her most artistic effort. It is not only her most anatsing, but be - yond all measure her cleverest claracter. She mingles a refinement with her pletsantry which not only renders it the most agreeabe, but also the most true. The double danger she ii exposed to of either weakness or excess—the ether under or over acting, from want of humour 0.• of taste—she steers clear of with an ease and certainty that are just as admirable as they are delightful. Whilst this character has all the naturalises—all the play fulness—and piquant spirit of het Zerlina, it has infinitely more art, and shows that vhcther as pea sant or lady she can be equally trill and diverting, But a few references to this performance will indi cate its merit. The:tender reveri( in which she enters reading Tasso, and in her oiening cavatina " So ancho io" dilates upon the paskon which she so deeply feels, despite her gaiety—tarmingly pre pares the audience for the stratarem which is so essential to her happiness, and which, when ap. prised of, she accepts with so mach enthusiasm, and dilates on with so much merriment in the duett that closes the first act. In tie sec on d, w h en she enters veiled as the young grl from th e con vent, whom Don Pasquale is gang to marry in order to punish his nephew's iisobedience, her downcast eyes and trembling wet*, as she pretends to shrink from the sight of a mm, are admirably coupled with the arch expression with which she lifts her veil aside, and intimates the penalty which her lover will pay for his delusion. Equally good, when the contract is signed which puts the household at her command, is the instantaneous, quiet change with which she proceeds to take possession of it; and tells her husband he is too old and fat to gallant a lady, and had better go to bed, whilst she avails herself of some one younger, and then proceeds to call in the servants and give them orders which threaten to ruin him In all of this there is no vehemence and nothing approaching to vulgarity, but a simple comic calm ness, which is tenfold as effective from the contrast it presents to the stupor and rage that it elicits. Again, in the third act, when Norina is going to the theatre and Don Pasquale commands her to stay at home, and she climaxes her audacity by giving him a box of the ears—a process which we have seen performed with much more energy than elegance—Mdlle. Patti with better taste, taps his face with her fan, and so merely inflicts the dignity without making it malicious. These are but a few of the many passages which affirm the merit of this performance. As re spects its vocal claims Norina affords comparatively but few solo occasions, but all these Mdlle. Patti meets with the utmost spirit and brilliancy. We must particularly refer to her first duet-.her share in the sestett of the 2d act —to her delightf u l p i ece of banter when she bids her hustand go to bed, whilst she goes to the play, " Via earo sposino," and as a contrast to all those, the exquisite tenderness with which she shares the lovely duet with Ernesto, " Tornami a dir," which won, as it well deserved, a very vehement encore, She was for the most part admirably supported. Signor Mariowas the Esnesto —the prince of lovers and gentlemen, whose delivery of the " Sogno Soave e Casto," in tiste first act, and of the " Come e Gentil"—the pearl of serenades in the last, the latter of which was loudly encored— could not possibly be exceeded. The Malatesta was Signor Della Sedie,and was also an exollent perform ance. This gentleman, whose want of Power so much impairs his efforts in serious opera, frequently forc ing him into excess in order to be et aph at i c, found himself here quite at his ease ; and b o th i n h i s singing and his acting delighted th e audience with his spirit. The least meritorious e ff ort was the Don Pasquale of Signor Ciampi,which w as hard and mechanical throughout, with neither naturalness nor humour—as much itferior in every respect to the performance of Signor Z ucc hi n i , as the Norina of Madame Guerrabell 4 is to that of Madlle. Patti. The short chorussta in, this opera were admirably given; and saving teat it was occa sionally a little loud, the band had all its accus tomed excellence. The house was very full, and the applause throughout was very featly. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE, MADAME TITIENS AS " :NORMA." Bellini's charming opera was produced for the first time this season at this hour on Saturday evening, in order that Madame Titiel s might again delight the public with her superb assumption of its heroine. Now that we have lost Jodame Grisi, there can be little question, we )resume, that Norma is another character which becomes entirely that of Madame Titiens. If wantin t in the won derful art with which her great precursor so dis criminated the various aspects of the devoted Druid —now lover and now mother, now woman and now priestess—Mdme. Titiens h 55 an amount of passion which penetrates entirely to the central feeling which connects all these aspects in one bosom—the mingled religious and domestic senti ment, whose struggle constitutes her trial—and this she expresses with a Lruth and grandeur which it would be mere impertinence to subject to any:living comparison. Throughout thefirst act, on Saturday evening,her acting and singing can only be described as one steady flow of grandeur—a perfect flood in voice and feeling of all the expressions that were possible, and which the excited audience acknow ledged with a warmth that well responded to its cause. In the second act she seemed somewhat exhausted, and scarcely sustained her previous level; but in the third all her force returned, and a finer conclusion to this noble character it would have been impossible to witness. The terrible fury with which she delivered the well-known denun ciation, " Non Tremari o perfido," was on l y equalled in its power by the deep pathos of her last and fainting appeal to the High Priest; altogether this was a performance which we could witness at no other hangs. The Pollio was Signor Armandi, who was tolerably efficient ; and the High Priest, Signor Vialetti, who was as good as could be wished, The choruses were admirable from their first note to their last; and the band, under Signor Arditi, exhibited all its usual excel ence. The house woe very full, and its satisfac tion very vgitt. 4 LATEST NEWS. THE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA. (Per CHINA, via CORK, JULY 13, 7 45 P.M.) NEW YORK, JULY 2. The armies of General M'Clellan and of the Con federates under General Lee have come into colli sion before Richmond. The contest began on Wednesday and was con tinued on Thursday and Friday. M'Clellan was driven from his position on the Pamunkey River and the White House with great loss. There was fearful carnage on both sides, The publication of the news was peremptorily forbidden by the Secretary of War, and the details only reached New York this morning. There was great excitement yesterday in Wall street; every species of Government stock and secu rity declined from 1 to 11 per cent. It is believed that the battle was renewed on Saturday and Sunday, but no particulars have been allowed to transpire.

Vicksburg is still in the possession of the Con federates. General Curtis has retired from Arkansas into Missouri. A cry is raised in New York to prevent the ex portation of gold. The questions of intervention and mediation con tinue to be discussed. That of intervention excites opposition ; that of mediation is more favourably received. The President, in answer to an address signed by the Governors of 18 States, has issued a proclama tion calling for 300,000 additional troops for the vigorous prosecution of the war.

After a hearing in chambers the judges ruled that the Parliament of Victoria possessed all the privileges legally en joyed by the House of Commons in 18.55. Mr. Dill, the publisher of the Argus, was thereupon re manded into the custody of the Sergeant -at-Arms, and afterwards, by vote of the House, was liberated on payment of the fees incurred, amounting to £l3O. The fees were paid under protest. Notice of an action for damages has been served on the Speaker of the Assembly, on the part-of Mr. Dill, and the case will probably be brought, by appeal, before the Privy Council. FRANCE.

Saturday was a very quiet day at the Exhibi tion, and showed some symptoms of exhaustion after the hurry and excitement of the previous day's festival. The company were not numerous, but those who were present had ample amuse ment in listening to the fine playing of the French and Belgian bands, which filled up the middle hours of the day. Amongst the Exhibition ample occupation was found in discussing the awards of the previous day, all those who had been passed over murmuring against the awards, and all those who had been distinguished ticketing the award upon their goods. It is, perhaps, too soon to cri ticise the decision too minutely, as we believe that the book contains many errors, and that the com missioners and their staff are now busy making corrections for a second edition. It is the inten tion of some of the more important exhibitors who have been, much to their own surprise, over looked by the jurors, to petition for medals, and it is therefore not improbable but that more than one of the awards will undergo reconsideration. Much surprise has been expressed at the seem ing smallness of the return of numbers for Fri day as compared with the appearance of the inte rior, and some persons have gone so far as to assert that some thousands were surreptitiously passed in of whose entry no record was kept. The returns for the whole week, as compared with the same week in 1851, shows in favour of the pre sent display, the number present on each day being as follows : 1862. 1851. Monday .. .. 55,253 .. .. 61,670 Tuesday .. .. 58,883 .. .. 65,962 Wednesday .. 53,418 .. .. 68,055 Thursday .. .. 66,213 .. .. 61,492 Friday .. .. 44,178 .. .. 30,067 Saturday .. .. 29,667 .. .. 11,181 These figures give a total of 288,427 for the week in 1851, and 307,612 for 1862, giving to the latter an excess of some 20,000 visitors. If, however, the returns had been carefully taken on Friday at least 30,600 more would have been added to this ma jority. There is now no probability of the numbers of those actually present on Friday being known at all. That the visitors present very nearly doubled in number the 44,000 who were counted is tacitly admittfd, but not the least clue remains as to the deficiency caused by those who passed in without being counted at all. AMERICAN FINANCES. Although the premium on gold at New York has advanced, as we predicted, to 110, and the future finarfcial difficulties of the American Government are immeasurably increased by the defeats at Charleston and Richmond, the crash which is destined to be witnessed may possibly not arrive at its most com plete point until a couple of months hence. In the first place, the immediate effect of the new Tariff Bill, which is to enable the United States to take the place in the commercial world lately vacated by China and Japan, will cause all the goods at present held in bond to be rapidly cleared from the Customs so as to avoid the augmented rates, and the Govern ment revenue will thus, for a short time, be largely swollen ; and, in the next, there will be a sudden suspension of orders for European goods, which will limit the demand for remittances to London and Paris. For several weeks, therefore, the people at large, of whose want of knowledge of even the rudimentary principles of political economy it is impossible, as has often been remarked, to form too strong an opinion, are likely to be deluded by assurances as to the working of the measure, and the danger of panic will be delayed. This absence of panic is insisted upon by all the journals as a proof that everything is in a sound condition, and although there is nothing more frightful than the ultimate recoil from the confidence of ignorance, it is unquestionably for the moment, in the present instance, the sole preservative from chaos. Singing and shouting upon the current, with Mr. Chase at the helm, no one has any idea of the Niagara at the end. It will take at least two months before the true results of a total suppression of foreign trade will be properly felt, but as at that time another issue of £30,000,000 of paper will be absolutely re quisite it will be at that date that we may look almost with certainty for the solution of the pro blem. The astonishment it will awaken in the American mind may be estimated by the fact that there is not a single publication of any influence in the country that dares to utter a preliminary warn ing. Until the commencement of the war the New York Journal of Commerce was always honourably distinguished as a Free-trade journal, but this paper soon fell under suspicion, and in order to prevent its suppression a change cf proprietorship was found necessary. Since that date the conductors, although they have not disavowed former views, have dis creetly preserved silence, their utmost efforts being limited to an occasional mild protest, couched in terms which, although plain enough to instructed persons, are not likely to reach the perceptions either of the financiers of Washington or the popu lace of New York. Hence there is not a single sober voice to be heard in the whole country. The papers teem with poetical and other effusions on the death from starvation of Manchester operatives, and side by side with these are glowing pictures of the progress now destined for America in her com mercial independence of the rest of the world. As it has reached so far, it is perhaps desirable that the delusion should go on to its natural end. Even if the truth could be proclaimed to the people it is too late for any ordinary remedy. It is easy for us to see, amid all the predictions of our ruin which now apparently constitute the only consolation of the Americans in their horrible distresses, the cunclu sion that is approaching, and we may well, there• fore, exercise forbearance and abstain from criticism THE POACHING ENCOUNTER NEAR 0 TTIN G1L.411. At the Shire-hall, Nottingham, on Satur day, the 12th inst., six men, named T. Hardy, H. Martin, John Hallam, S. Potter, J. Draycott, and William Hallam, were taken before the sitting magistrates, charged with being armed with bludgeons, stones, &c., for the purpose of taking game on the pre serves of Mr. S. Gregory, at Bramcote (four miles from Nottingham), at midnight on Saturday last. Mr. Lees appeared for Draycott and W. Hal lam. Edward Husbands, a gamekeeper in the employ of Mr. Gregory, stated that on the night when the affray took place he and another watcher named Wright were on duty, and o when crossing a clover a Tthheayy wentsaw a gang of poachers with 0 on p ;tolett,s hem ki , ll,ra and e ,htehehreaaardreNbVa.tHt w e a l say,t . tm Thech p "Come a ers then commenced flinging stones at them and strik ing them with bludgeons.

The other keeper, Wright, gave corroborative evidence. Police-constable Brown stated that when Hardy, Martin, and J. Hallam were in the lock-up, they told him they s hould plead guilty. The bench committed all t he prisoners for trial at the next assizes. CIVIL LIST PENSIONS.

HER MAJESTY'S JOURNEY NORTH.—Her Ma jesty and the royal suite will leave Windsor for Balmoral onTuesday, the 22d inst. , and Mr. Dunbar, of the railwai refreshment rooms here, has received instructions to pre pare breakfast for the royal party on the following morn ing. Her Majesty, it is said, will remain about an hour at the general terminus, and then proceed northward.— _Perth shire Advertiser. The Prince and Princess Royal of Hesse left Brussels the day before yesterday for Germany, proceeding to the railway station in court carriages, accompanied by the Duke and Duchess of Brabant, the Count de Flandre , Lord and Lady Howard de Walden, and other persons of distinction, On the previous day their Royal Highnesses visited Laeken, where they passed the greater part of the day. In the evening a grand dinner was given there 10 their honour. A Cabinet Council was held on Saturday at the official residence of the First Lord of the Treasury Downing-street; all the Ministers were present. The marriage was celebrated, on the Bth, at the British Legation, Brussels, of Sir Rutherford Alcock,K.

MONTGOMERY ELECTION.— WELSHPOOL, Sate day, Four o'Clock.—Tracy (Liberal), 755; Wynn ( 0011.. servative), 744. The Gazette du Danube states that lately bill ° were found stuck up at the corners of the streets of Pragu e with the following words in gigantic letters Help se cording to your means 1" and below an invitation to the inhabitants to join in a festival to be held at the Venetian Island, as it is called, for the relief of the Montenegrin s. The police however, prohibited the festival, and caused the bills to be torn down. A letter from Copenhagen mentions that the —a ll Ministry has decided on convoking the States of Holstein in the early part of September, and that the session Will b e opened about the 11th. It may be remembered that while in Paris the Japanese Ambassadors received an invitation from the Swiss Government to visit Swifterland, which they declined ac cepting, for the reason that their instructions were to visit only the countries which had already concluded treaties of commerce with Japan. Their letter in reply commenced thus :—" We acknowledge the reception of the communica tion that his Majesty the President and the members of the Council would receive us with welcome in their eta' pire." It appears that the Japanese cannot comprehend the existence of a Republi3an Government. --- GLASGOW MURDER,, Sunday-- Afternoon.—A woman hitherto known as Mary M'Donald has been ap prehended in the Broomielaw, Glasgow. Her real name i° Mrs. Maclachlan. She acknowledges that she pledged, on Saturday week, silver plate which, she says, she got from the old man Fleming.

The person who presented them is reported to have been a German. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT TWICKENHAM.-- - THREE LIVES Lesz.—On Sunday (yesterday) afternoon a lamentable accident occurred on the river Thames, which resulted in the death of three persons, two ladies and a gentleman, one only of the party of four having been saved. They had hired a boat, and while rowing up the river came in contact with another boat. The violence of the concus sion alarmed the ladies, who lost their presence of mind, and started up from their seats, when the boat toppled over, and they were all precipitated into the river. Notwith standing the many efforts made to rescue them they were not recovered till life had fled, with the exception of the one gentleman, who, being able to swim, contrived to reach the shore in safety. The bodies of the two ladies and of the gentleman were borne away in a cart to await the corouer'C inquest.
