To-morrow, according to annual custom, her MA JESTY'S Ministers celebrate the proximate close of the Session by consuming whitebait down at Green wich. And between the whitebait dinner and the grouse shooting comes, as a matter of course, the Prorogation. So that, after all, the Houses will be up rather earlier than later than ordinary —in spite of those recent threatenings of the prolongation of their labours by reason of the lamentable distress resulting from the Cotton Famine in Lincasbire. In effect, the pro bability appears to be that the Lords and Commons will be dismissed by Royal Commissio n on the sth proximo. It may seem at the first glance as if the end of the Seesion had thug come upon us, as somewhat of a surprise. There have been so few of those usuel premonitory symp toms of its termination, known familiarly as the massacre of the innocents. And for this simple reason enough that there were scarcely any inno cents to massacre. Not that Parliament this vear can be said to have shown itself more than ordi narily industrious. On the contrary, the Minis terial p r ogramme o f the legislative' labours set down by Government for th e two Houses at the end of February and the beginning of April was— as. indeed, can hardly be forgott e . but insig nificant. It was the briefest, in a Way , that could Refurm ere . I t was s k e t c h e d out upon the principle well have b een adventured upon by a Cabi net of apparently of letting well alone. The calamity which had so very recently befallen the widowed SOVEREIGN and her loyal and sympathising people afforded Ministers, it is true, every reasonable ex cuse for allowing the session to be tided over quietly, without much of effort hting made on the part of Government to forward what is vaguely spoken of amongst us as the course of progress. The lamented death of the PRINCE CONSORT—the absence of the Court from London throughout the whole of the season in consequence of that bitter affliction to the Crown—the apathy of the country at large in re gard to that remodelling of our representative system which had during the four or five years previously been talked of in the House and out of the House usque ad nauseam—all combined to en courage ministers (reasonably enough it ought, in simple justice to them, to be acknowledged) to do and say—just as little as possible ! Nothing was urgently pressing upon the attention of the Legis lature. It was precisely—and when most wanted— the opportunity for—we wont say exactly apathy, but we will say—as much quiescence, for as a little stir and agitation of any serious kind, as could welt be insured in either of the Houses of Parliament. Not only did her MAJESTY'S Ministers recognise the advisability of all this, but her MAJESTY'S Opposition showed at once that they recognised it quite as clearly themselves. The noble earl, the leader of the Opposition, fairly intimated as much when the Parliamentary Session was commencing. The Speech from the Throne was, for once, loyally responded to, both by Lords and Commons, "nemine contradicente." The Address, in answer to it, was, in each instance, but its eeho. Our legislators con tented themselves with expressing their profound and heartfelt sympathy with our beloved QUEEN in the great grief that had befallen her MAJESTY under the permission of Divine Providence. In the eloquent enunciation of these feelings of sympathy for the QUEEN, and of gratitude and admiration for the departed Prince, the first night's proceedings in the two Houses may be said to have bees con sumed. Hansard will soon recall to general recollec tion how this was the case in those earlier pages of the new volume now speedily forthcoming —pages that will long be looked back to with a sorrowful in terest by those who best appreciate the blessings that have accrued to the British empire from this last quarter of a century's reign of the most constitutional Sovereign that has ever sat upon the Throne of England. Otherwise—apart from what was then said in tribute to the memory of the PRINCE CONSORT —the opening night's discussion might almost as well have remained unreported, for any light it threw upon the designs of the op posing ranks of politicians thus confronting each other in, as nearly as possible, equal The Government and the Oppos?- tio❑ merely crossed foils, as it were —and foils con spicuous having their buttons firmly on. There wes the salute—there was the attitudinizing. But there was not a single thrust, daring or diffident, and therefore was there no opportunity afforded to the most cunning fencer of them all for a display of his dexterity at the parry. Later on in the Session no doubt the apparent equalisation of the numbers, to the right hand and to the left hard of Mr. Speaker, was not without its tempta tion to the Opposition. As the ultimate result of which temptation there came those threatenings of a raid every now and then beyond the border line between the Outs and the Ins. As last Session was flagrantly and disgracefully known as the Session of the lost Wednesdays, the one now ex piring might be designated quite as characteristi cally—the Session of the Sham Fights on the part of the Opposition. They would if they could—but—they couldn'c! The last of these sham fights, the' crowning absurdity of them all, being the ever-memorable one in which Mr. WALPOLE was put forward suddenly as the chosen leader of the Opposition rank and file, then seemingly with clenched hands and set teeth bent upon making a bold rush upon Office. Yet, hardly had that redoubtable champion of the Opposition flung down his gage of battle before the Government—when (it is preposterous still to re numbers. member so ridiculous an anti-climax) be timidly picked it up again and slipped it into his pocket, nearly frightened out of his senses, apparently, at the mere clearing-of-the-throat of the most for midable of his antagonists ! It was immediately after this mcst ludicrous spectacle that the hon. member for Liskeard capped the climax of his many sharp sayings and home -truths this session, by desig nat. ng Lord PAMERSTON—as be es in point of fact —a Political Dictator. And, as if cat ried away by a sense of his own irresistible predominence in the House of Commons, the Prime Minister, not very long afterwards, scandalized the vast majority we believe upon both sides of that house by his out rageous arrogance of tone and manner, of voice - - and language towards one of the most distinguished men still ranked among its occupants. It will be well for his interests and for those of his col-- leagues if the Premier thinks better of it all —of himself and of the situation of things gene-- rally—during the calm interval of the holidays sow almost immediately about to commence. Even Lord PALMERSTON'S immense and unrivalled popu. laxity willfailtosavehispowerfuladministration from an abrupt and even ignominious downfall, if these indecorous evidences of a haughty sense of his own virtual Dictatorship are allowed by him to outrage he amour. propro of all parties indiscriminately. His [ordship has already had one lesson to this (fleet— no further hack than within the last lustre. He may yet have another, and, probably, it would, this second time, be a final one, if he must needs persist in offending the proud spirit of the Cum mons, by any such welcome incentives to a fresh display of its innate and absolute independence. The third reading of the new Game Law Bill is fixed for to-morrow. The manifest destiny of the country squire s is to carry it ; yet if the three fourths of the House who have absented themselves f t rem the discussions had any sense of what was due o their own reputation and to public opinion, even this indecent haste in "changing the laws of Eng land" wo uld not b e successful. When the poor law is under di scussion it miseammberussingarte f o see or s h t o a w n dsitnrg o e nun ous the agri cu l ture.i the " good old laws." They see no obj et i on t o t h e a nnihilation of the property of a manufacturing P arish , before it shall hav e any claim upon the adjacent parishes, because so it seemed good in th e days of ELIZABET H. But w hen the p rotection of hares and pheasants, not of operatives and their families, is in question, then the most settled max i ms of English law and a dministration of justic e go for nothing. A man is to be compelled to convict hi m _ self over, not a dead fellow man, but over a dead pheasant—murdering the latter being by much th e more seriou s b us i ness to sporting gentiemen, who prefer to murder and sell the pheasants themselves. So it is nothing worth objecting to, in the interest of pheasants aLd hares, that the police should treat every common cart, every carrier's cart, and every kind of conveyance they meet, as a suspected venicle, no information on oath or warrant inter vening. All such things are but the dust of old rusty legal balances when game is in question, and hence, to-morrow, a bill which the Home Secretary of England has declared to be full of unconstitu tional enactments, a bill opposed by the most re spectable Conservatives in the House, is to be - THE SUN, LONDOIs , , TUESDAY EVUNING, JULY 29, 1862, r forced through a third reading tomorrow, It seems almost incredible that absent members will not receive last night's notice as a summons to take the express train at once to save their credit and that of the People's TrLuse. The bill is, said Mr. OSBORNE, a most extraordi nary one, brought in by a private member at the end of a lazy session. There is real weight in the sarcasms of the trenchant member. If ever a bill ought to be brought in on the responsibility of Government it is one involving such grave depar tures from legal and constitutional principles, and one which touches such a peculiarly difficult and artificial subject as game. At this moment no man has yet succeeded in settling the light in which game shall be regarded. If we take what comes nearest to the fact, and define it to be any living creatures which gentlemen may see fit to kill for their sport, even this may be made to include every wild creature that can run or fly. We knew well a country squire who actually took more interest in a rat hunt than in a hare hunt. who kept a splendid set of dogs and ferrets for the purpose ; happily he did not enforce rat preserving on his tenants, nor did he regard the ratcatcher as a poacher, on the contrary, the latter official generally attended the squire on his expeditions, and had the pecuniary benefits thereof. In all reason, however, if ratcatching amused squires, any argument in favour of making hares and rabbits game would equally apply to the rats. Some would treat as the property of landlords all the living creatures supported by the land. These game-defining philosophers are asked, in reply, whether they would extend the designation of pro perty to sparrows and rooks. In one respect they might, with more reason, since the agricultural value of these birds on an estate is now proved to us by the sufferings from insects of our neighbours across the channel, whu have so nearly destroyed them ; while, what is now reckoned game, has no reputation for saving our crops from the ravages of wire-worms and grubs. In truth, it is impossible to affix the notion of property to what can in no way be identified, either by its visible features and characteristics, or by its being actually in your possession. The very sovereigns which have been stolen from you, if you can identify them by no mark, can be no longer claimed ; though, if known to be taken from you, you can reclaim them. For this reason it does seem fair, as Mr. WALTER, we believe, first suggested, and Mr. OSBORNE, last night, also remarked, to make a difference between pheasants and other things called game. Pheasants are brought up as poultry, said Mr. OSBORNE, and ought to be con sidered as such. Tht y really are inclined to wander, when duly cared tor, not much more than some kinds of poultry; and with all our antipathy to the game laws, and deeming laws for protecting property to be quite sufficient, we should readily concur in declaring pheasants property, and leaving the rest, which no mortal could identify, to such protection as trespass laws, and the sentiments of a neigh. bourhood would furnish. The one inference we draw from all is, that it is scandalous to legislate on game, when the community, and even game pre servers themselves cannot agree as to how we shall regard it. And the one fact that ought, even now, to kick out this bill, on its third reading, is, that it is a monstrous innovation on the laws of the land, made all in a hurry, "at the fag end of a lazy iession." In what unlooked for ways a vicious pr:nciple, or scheme, will often punis)-i its authors or adva. cates. Who would have thought in connection with the Union Relief Aid Bill to have had a Par liamentary Reform discussion. Yet so it is. The QUEEN herself, peers, commoners, all the country, are unanimous in the praises of Northern operatives. All declare that they have borne a calamity, brought on them by no fault of their own, but entirely by the quarrelsomeness of Americans, and the policy of our Government in recognising the cotton block ade, with the most manful resolution, and in the most law-observing spirit. Yet thanks to Lord RUSSELL'S obstinacy, and thanks to this reactionary Parliament, the clauses stand part of the Reform Act which disfranchise those who have not paid their last rates. In the present state of things in Lan cashire, thousands of these men whom all commend, who are confessed to have shown their worthiness of the franchise by their noble conduct, are now deprived of it, through no fault of their own, but but because Lord PALMERSTON has recognised the Northern cotton blockade. This was very properly adverted to early in the debate last night, and we trust that these worthy voters will rot be left to the mercies of Parliamentary local agents. It will be too bad to strip them of their civil rights as well as of their wages, by the side-wind of an Imperial foreign poli:3y. But why should not even t his miserable Reform Parliament, so tender over the amusement of rustic squires, not show itself as tender over the civil rights of the subjects of mis fortune, by introducing a short clause into this bill, or the Corrupt Practices Bill—for there is plenty of corrupt, of sharp practice at least through the rate-paying clauses, or why should not a one clause bill be introduced, abolishing for ever these hateful clauses. It would not be hasty legislation, for it has often been discussed ; and if it were, it would not be so hasty as the bill to legislate for squires' sports. We may add that even the re ceipt of parochial relief, under these circumstances, ought not to disfranchise. It will be seen that Mr. VILLIERS has made the emendation, in the first clause of his bill, suggested by Mr. HENLEY. He has now, as he described it, laid down a fixed rate of ss. in the pound as a measure of the distress, when a parish should be relieved from the common fund of the union. All the parishes in a union are also to pay till their contribution has reached ss. i❑ the pound, before the union will be entitled to look to other unions for aid. By this arrangement a parish will be, at least, severely pressed, before it will be entitled to ask help from others. It is remarkable, however, how difficulties creep out in the examination of a subject like this. Mr. COBDEN stated that, in his borough of Rochdale, the rates had been kept low by private charity and arrangements, endeavouring to keep hose out of employ off the rates. If, however, a parish whose rates had been thus kept down, found itself burdened till it reached a five shilling rite to aid other parishes which had not done so much in charity, at once the charity would cease, and the whole of the relief would be given through the ratev. It is to meet numerous cases of a kind which no general rule could suit, that it does seem right to giYe to parishes which desire it the option of a loan. Lord P ALMERSTGN, indeed, enumerated many objec tions to loans, important we confess, but which all bore with equal, perhaps greater strength against the loan which he forced on Parliament and the country for his fortification scheme. ?hen, he held it of little weight that " a loan post pones till a futur e ti me " the p ressure o f th e moment, that " those who borrow money will pro bably not have to pay it," that it is " in all things an d in all cases the safe outlet from immediate if " an after clap to raising money by loin." True as i s ail this of the difficulties," and that there is The Emperor of Russia is at present making a tour of some of the towns in the Baltic provinces.

MEMORIAL TABLET TO THE LATE LORD NACAULAT.--Since the burial of the great historian near the Poets'-corner of our national mausoleum a piece of paper only, with the words " Lord Macaulay's grave" written upon it, served to show where his remains were deposited. A tablet has, however, lately been placed over the grave. Unlike those recently let into the nave of the Abbey to perpetuate the memory of Mr. R. Stephens-m, C.E., and Dr. John Hunter, it is devoid of all ornament, and bears the following simple inscription :—" Thomas Babington, Lord Macaulay, born at Rothly Temple, Lei cestershire, October 25, 1800. Died at Holly-lodge, Carnpd,n-hill, December 28, 1859. `His body is buried in peace, but his nam e liveth for evermore.' " LIFEBOAT SERVICE.—BEAUMARIS, JULY 27. During a strong gale of wind on Thursday night, the flat Frodsham, of Liverpool, was observed t ) have a signal of distress. The Pennon lifeboat, belonging to the National Lifeboat Institution, was immediately manned, and pro ceeded to the vessel. In the meantime she had shipped her cable, and was driving before the wind with a bit of foresail up and the distress signal still flying. The lifeboat at last overtook her, and bearded her about four miles to the east ward of Puffin's Island. She remained by the vessel all night, and ultimately succeeded, with the help of the steamer Fairy, belonging to the City of Dublin Steam Packet Company, in bringing the fiat and her crew of two men into port. This valuable lifeboat has on two or three previous occasions rendered somewhat similar important services. THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION —Monday, 5 , ; usual, drew very large numbers to the building. More than ',0,000 passed in in the first hour, and nearly 60,000 were present by 3 o'clock. At 5 the total numbers were 62,800, of which 5,461 were admitted by season tickets, and 57,339 by payment. Between 2,000 and 3,000 workmen from Chatham dockyard, with their wives and families, were among the earliest arrivals. The children from St Bride's School, Fleet-street, and the children of the Ascot Heath School were sent in by subscription. The Mayor of Southampton, Mr. Perkins, paid all the expenses of the visit of the girls from the Femaie Orphan Asylum of that town. ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.—We under stand that an arrangement has been ma-te between this society and the Commissioners of the Exhibition for 1862 for the readmission of visitors to the Exhibition from the Society's garden without repayment, as has hitherto been the case. This, we are assured, will be a great boon to the public, for on all sides have been heard complaints of the hardships of visitors to the garden and Exhibition having to pay a second time on passing from one to the other. The opportunity thus afforded of spending a short interval in the fresh air of the garden after some lu urs in the crowded building will doubtless be appreciated and taken advantage of by multitudes. LADIES' RIFLE SHOOTING.--A novelty connected with competition in rifle-shooting has just occurred in Holywell, Flintshire. At a volunteer fete and contest, at which prizes were offered by Lord Fielding, and the offi cers of the Flint battalion, to the best marksmen, six Holy well ladies competed for the Bright Eyes Sweepstakes, with Enfield rides, shooting from a rest three shots each, at 100 yards' range. The greatest interest was excited among a numerous assemblage. After some excellent shooting, the score stood as follows:—Mrs. Ashwin, 8; Mrs. Cope, 8; Miss Briscoe, 4 ; Mrs. Wolstenholme, 5; Miss E. Wil liams, 4; Miss Edwards, 6. On the tie between the two flrst-named ladies being announced the excitement was so strong to gain a near view that the spectators could hardly be kept within safe bounds. After firing another round, enthusiasm rose to the highest pitch as Mrs. Ashwin scored a centre against Mt s.Cope's euter, thus winning the victory. PROGRESS OF SUBMARINE TEL EGRAPHS.—A telegram received yesterday announces the successful sub mersion of the first portion of a new telegraph cable be.. tween England and Holland. Owing to the increase in their message traffic between this country and the conti• nent, the Electric and International Telegraph Company entered into a contract with Messrs. Glass, Elliott, and Co., of Greenwich, for a now line to be laid between Lowestoft and Landvoart. The steamer Hawthorne shirped 48 miles of the cable last week, and the whole was successfully paid out, under the superintendence of the engineers, Messrs. Canning and Clifford, and the electricians, Messrs. de Sauty and Saunders; the electrician of the Telegraph Com pany, Mr. C. F. Varley, being also on board.

DEATH OF TAE LATE DEPUTY CORONER FOR MIDDLESEX.—Mr. George Henry Brent was a member of the medical profession, having studied at University Col lege. He was deputy coroner for Middlesex for the last ten years. Before being appointed to this position he was well-known for the interest he took in many problems con nected with vital statistics, and he published many papers in the Lancet on subjects connected with medical juris prudence. During Mr. Wakley's absence from ill health, the 'whole duties of the coronership for the western division fell upon him. It was whilst performing this arduous task that his health suffered, and symptoms of disease of the heart appeared. On Mr. Wakley's death his post of deputy coroner ceased, but his health was too shattered to recover by rest. He threw what energies he had left into the contest for coroner on the side of Dr. Lankester. It was very evident, however, to all that he was fast declining. Increased difficulty of breathing obliged him to take to his bed at an early part of last week. His symptoms gradually got worse, till he sunk on Monday evening last. He was an amiable man, and filled the post of deputy coroner with great success till his failing health rendered it almost impossibl e that he should discharge the onerous duties of the office with efficiency and regularity. FRIGHTFUL OCCURRENCE AT THE WORKS OF THE LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVE& RAILWAY —Yes terday William Carter, Esq., coroner for the eastern divi sion of Surrey, received information of the following fright ful and fatal occurrence, which took place at that part of the works of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway known as No. 6 Shaft, at Dulwich. It appears that, in carrying out a tunnel which pierces through Dulwich Hill, the above shaft was sunk to the depth of over 200 feet. The earth, as excavated, is conveyed in barrows to the bottom of the shaft, and the barrows and earth together are hoisted to the month of the shaft by means of steam power. It was the duly of the deceased and numerous others, when the barrows reached the top, to pull them on one side and empty them. About 8 o'clock in the morning the deceased was at work, and it is supposed that he missed his hold of one of the barrows, and before he could recover himself fell backwards down the shaft. Of course the greatest consternation prevailed, and the work was for some time suspended. The poor fallow was completely smashed, and was quite dead when picked up. The body as was soon as possible placed in a shell and carried to the Dulwich Wood House, where it remains for a coroner's inquest. It may be stated that there are upwards of 600 men employed . at these works, and the abo ve i s, most providentially, the first accident which has occurred. The deceased was fortunately) a einzle man. nine millions to be sunk in forts, he paid no attention to similar remonstrances then. Now, when a number of business men of the highest standing come forward and tell him that, aware of all these dangers of a loan, they yet think it better to take their burdens on themselves, and to hazard the "after clap," than that the whole parish to which they belong should go begging to the union, he is strongly against it. No plan of raising money to meat a calamity can be, without sacrifice and difficulty to those who have to pay, but we are disposed to think that such men as Lancashire is made of, or rather who have made Lancashire, better know their own business than Lord PALMERSTON and the Poor Law Boards know it for them. We believe all parties are thoroughly sincere in their desire to act for the best in the emergency now at hand—but we believe it quite as much of the cotton spinners as of the Government, and it is the former who will have to pay. The question is not yet settled, and from ail we have seen, if the Lancashire men continue of their present opinion, we hope Par liament will make the bill comprehensive enough to suit Manchester and Rochdale as well as West minster and Downing -street. LAT EST NE WS. TURIN, JULY 28, EVENING. Ir. the Chamber of Deputies to day Signor Sineo said it was advisable that the Government should give some explanations of the statements of the Ministry relative to Switzerland, which appeared to have been incorrectly understood. Signor Rattazzi replied that the speech of Gen, Durando had been singularly misinterpreted. The Italian people and Government desired to re spect the integrity and to uphold the power of Switzerland- It was never meant to express any wish for a separation of territory from the Confe deration. The Minister had only spoken of an eventuality contrary to our ideas and our wishes. The Neapolitan railway billy are to come on for discussion on Thursday. Intelligence from Palermo states that a slight assemblage, headed by a Bourbon priest, had at tempted to make a demonstration in favour of Signor Pallavicini, the Prefect of Palermo, who had been dismissed. The movement found no support among the population, and the crowd dispersed spontaneously upon the approach of a patrol of the National Guard. Garibaldi is still at Palermo. General Cugia has been appointed Prefect of tha'ii city, and will go there immediately. INDIA. (BY TELE‘BAPH TO OALLE.) CALCUTTA, JUNE 30. Gray shirtings advnnepd one to two annas. Mule twist better.

THE DISTRESS IN LANCASHIRE. The following is a copy of a letter to the Earl of Derby, conveying her Mejesty the Queen's dona tion to the Cotton Districts Relief Fund : `• Balmoral, July 24, 1862. " My dear Lord Derby--The Queen has iong had her attention and anxious sympathy attracted to the sufferings, so patiently and nob:y borne, of that portion of her Majesty's subjects in the north of England which is connected with cotton manufac- tures, and which is at present unfortunately thrown out of employment. " It would have been long since very pleasing to her Majesty to have assisted them and mitigated their privations; but it was considered advisable to test the sufficiency of the ordinary means of re lief to meet this great misfortune. " Her Majesty has, however, seen with much satisfaction that a meeting has been held, under your presidency, of those who are connected by property with the great manufacturing districts for the purpose of tendering their aid to those living in their own neighbourhood who have been plunged into destitution by no disinclination to maintain themselves by honest and independent labour, but by lamentable circumstances entirely beyond their control. " The Queen gladly associates herself, under her title of Duchess of Lancaster, with these suffering districts, and is pleased to find herself thus entitled to send her aid to those for whom she has long felt deep compassion. I have received her Majesty's commands to for ward, through 3 ou, the sum of £2,000 to be added to the fund for the aid of ;he sufferers in the cotton manufacturing districts.—Sincerely yours, " C. B. PHiPps." WAR-OFFICE, July 28.—N0 application for permission to attend the volunteer review at AFcot on the 2d of August will be entertained after the 30th inst.

THE LOSS OF THE TRENT STEAMER. —The Board of Trade have signified to the police magistrates of Hull, whose report in this case we published on Tuesday last, that they have thought it right to cancel Captain Brown's certificate of service, but with an intimation that they would not object, after 12 months, to his offering himself for exa mination for a certificate of competency. SUICIDE FROM BLACRFRIARS-BRIDG E.—Yester day morning, about half-past 12 o'clock, a decently-clad woman, about 28 years of age, after taking some coffee at the foot of Blackfrims-bridge, suddenly rushed down the steps and plunged into the river. The Thames police, with the piermen of the bridge, succeeded in getting the unfortunate woman out, but she was quite dead. DREADFUL ACCIDENT TO ONE OF HER MA JESTY'S SERVANTS. —Yesterday a young man, aged 30 years, whose name was ascertained to be George Street, and one of her Majesty's household servants at Osborne, was attended at Westminister Hospital by Mr. Arthur Bendle, the house surgeon, where he had been received under 'h e following circumstances :—lt seems that the unfortunate man obtained permis• ion to come up to London fur the pur pose of visiting the International Exhibi;ion. On return ing from there on Saturday, and while aiding on the roof of an omnibus, he suddenly lost bis balance, and fell with fearful violence on to the roadway. Before he could be picked up a cab came along, and two of the wheels pass, d over him. Re was then removed in a senseless state to the hospital, when it was found that his skull was fearfully in jured, and his right hand and arm broken in a shocking manner. He has never been sensible since the occurrence, and scarce any hopes are entertained of his recovery. LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND SOUTH COAST .RAIL WAY HALF-YEARLY MEETING. -THIS DAY The usual half-yearly meeting of the proprietors was held this day at the Bridge House Hotel—L. Schuster, Esq., chairman of the board of directors, presided. 'the report, which has already appeared in The Sun, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the document, said the very few remarks he should have to address to them that day would not occupy much of their time. The gross revenue for the half-year had been £444,861, showing an increase of 123,482 over that of the corresponding half-year of 1861. It pas exceedingly satisfactory to inform the share holders that the directors had been enabled to take steps to reduce the average rate of interest on all their borrowed capital. (Hear, hear.) There had been no renewals at a higher rate of 4 per cent., neither had there been any crea tion of debenture stock above that rate. (Hear, hear.) The debenture stock in their company he looked upon as quite equal in security t oConsols,and he therefore invited the whole of the skit reholders to co-operate with the nirectors iu converting the whole debt of the company into debenture stock. The increase of third class passengers was exceed ingly satisfactory, as there had been more than 150,000 travelling in that division compared with the numbers in 1861. Of course the revenue had benefitted to the same degree, and in order to give encouragement to that class of travellers, the directors proposed to reduce the rate of charge for third-class travellers to an uniform rate of Id. per mile. (Hear, hear.) This would be a great boon to a large class of persons, and to show the extent of the diminution of charge he need only state that at present the charge for a third-class passenger t:► Brighton was now 55., after the Ist of August next it would be reduced to 4s. 2d., which was a reduction at the rate of 18 per cent. The traffic for the last four weeks had been on the increase, and at th, ir next half-yearly meeting it was anti cipated the report the directors would then have to submit would be found equally satisfactory. The best results were anticipated from the powers they had secured from Parliament to enlarge the London-bridge Terminus, as the importance of that station could not be over-estimated, particularly as the extensive improvements in its locality were fast approaching completion. Another bill, which had also received the assent of Parliament, con tained clauses enabling the company (in conjunction with others) to complete the railway circle around the metropolis —a result which could not fail to produce a large accession of traffic from those places lying between London-bridge and Brixton. He should have great pleasure in answering any questions that might be put to him, and he would re sume his seat by moving that the report be received and adopted. After a few observations from Mr. FILDER, A PROPRIETOR wii•hed to know what had been the pre cise loss to the company from the Clayton accident. The CHAIRMAN said every shilling •f loss occasioned by that most unfortunate circumstance would be paid out of revenue. The directors had already paid £12,000. In addition to the last half-year, another £6,000 would be dis posed of, and he anticipated that £6,000 for the current half-year would entirely close the account. There were some cases pending, and he thought the shareholders would agree with him that it was neither judicious nor advisable to enter into a discussion on the subject. (Hear, hear ) The motion for the adoption of the report was then agreed to unanimously. The CHAIRMAN then moved a resolution empowering the directors to pay a dividend of two and a-half per cent. for the half year on the 12th August. The motion was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN next moved a resolution determining upon the cousoliaation into 4i per cent. stock of such of the remaining 41 per cent. £5 sha es, 1861, upon which the to 1 amount or £5 per share shall have b.en paid. The resolution was carries unanimously. After the general business was over - the shareholders resolved themselves into a special general meeting for the purpose of raising capital for several new bills. CUYP AND BE.RGHEM. The lovers of the Dutch School of Art will thank us, we are certain, for recommending them to look in, en passant, during the next few days, should they chance to have the opportunity, at the Picture Gallery of our many-years' neighbour, Mr. Barrett, on the opposite side (369) of the Strand. For there are now on view in that gallery—fugitively, of course, and, we will add, gratuitously— two very charming and, indeed, remark able specimens of the Dutch School : a Cuyp and a Berghem. The Berghem especially, to our think ing, is really exquisite. It is a cabinet picture, in the centre of which a young peasant lassie is seen wading across 'a stream carrying under her left arm a kid, the offspring of the old goat, plasn ing through the water by the girl's side, looking up into her face the while, and bleating. It is the prettiest little incident, and the way in which it is rendered throughout by the artist's hand, is as charming as the incident. The lim pidity of the water alone is a refreshment to look at in this hot weather. The superior impor tance of the Cuyp—at once in value, in subject, and in treatment—is as manifest, of course, as its larger size, or as the greater name of the artist from whose hand it has emanated. It is only less to our liking by comparison with the little Berghem by its side—which latter we, at the first glance, take to heart as a gem. Liquidity there is here, too, sparkling and diaphonous in the early breath of the morning. A boat is bringing ashore with a slow and measured beat of the oars, a Cavalier, whose horse, richly capari soned, waits for him on the bank, together with the horse of his dismounted attendant. Both of these valuable works belonged, it appears, to the late Mr. Birch, a connoisseur of rare taste, well-known in artistic circles, as having " collected" for various ❑oblemen and gentlemen his contemporaries, among them for M. Des Fons, the original owner of the noble Gallery of Pictures at Dulwich. For it was M. Des Fons who bequeathed that superb coliec • tion to Sir Francis Bourgeois—the nation raceiving it afterwards as a magnificent gift bequeathed to it by Sir Francis Bourgeois. Lady Emily Peel is still at Ems, and is recover ing from her recent indisposition. On leaving Ems, Lady Emily will go to Geneva, where she will be met t y Sir Robert Peel, who departs for Switzerland after the proro gation of Parliament. THE HARVEST IN FRANCE. —New wheat made its appearance in the Paris Corn-market on Wednesday last. Farmers show a great desire to profit by the present high prices, from which fact his inferred that they are satis fied with their crops—those, at least, who reside in the neighbourhood of Paris. They offer to sell a large quantity of wheat for delivery in the course of the month of August, according as they can thrash it, but the millers who attend the Paris market will not buy more than can be delivered within eight days. Several lots were sold for immediate delivery at 37f and 37f 50c the sack of 110 kilogrammes for choice samples, and at 36f to 36f 50c for good utility. There was no new wheat of inferior quality offered for sale. Choice samples of old wheat are quoted at 37f 50c the sack of 120 kilogrammes. First quality, 37f; and inferior, 35f 50c. Several farmers from the neighbourhood of Lyons sold new wheat in the Paris market at 36f 50c, and 37f to be delivered before the 15th of August, and at from 35f to 35f 50c for delivery up to the sth of September. The buyers were chiefly millers from the north of France and from Picardy. PROFESSOR BLACKIE ON MUSIC.—At an exarni• nation last week of Mr. Douglas's school, Great King street, Edinburgh, Professor Blackie, when about to dis tribure the prices, said, I consider the proper soul of a good school is evidently here--I mean music, and nothing but music. We Scotch have neglected music very much in our schools. (Hear, hesr.) We seem to think it is no thing but a sort of very elegant thing, by which young ladies may amuse stupid gentlemen in stupid drawing.. rooms after stupid dinner parties. (Laughter.) I hope we are getting above that idea, which I know was per fec, ly common in Scotland some thirty or forty years ago. I hope you have got above that idea, and know now the great harmoniser of the soul, without which everything else in man is apt to get into a state of disobedience and revolution, in things sacred, and in things profane, if, indeed, there can be anything profane about that noble and divine art. I doubt very much whether music ever can be profane; and I'll give you two tests to find out whether. you are in a good state of mind, morally and religiously. If 3ou are jealous or discontented, or spiteful in any way—if the devil has got hold of you, or about to get hold of you by the back of the neck, I tell you there are two things you cannot do. You cannot pray, and you cannot sing. No person when his mind is out of tune can sing with his throat in tune—that is impossible. You'll never commit murder singing a hymn. As the Germans, the best mus:cians in the world, say—' Where you hear people singing, there sit down in peace and quiet; bad men have no song.' I say I must give myself vent in this affair to express my great delight in having found the great harmoniser music so predom nant in this school. I have been in schools very learned, where a great deal of Greek and Latin are paraded, and never heard music at all, and yet the Greeks made music the half of their edu cation. In the English universities, I am glad to say, much more attention has been paid to music, and I hope in all schools, academies, and college, it will in ten years have become as universal as it has long been in Germany, the most musical • and philosophical country in the world. (A.pplatuse4 LAW -THIS DA COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. ( oramissioner Hulroyd ) IN RE CARTER This bankrupt was described as of Bedford, printer, b)okselkr, &c. This was a meeting for last examination and discharge. The accounts by Messrs. Hart Bro hers and Hayles, show :—Debtor to creditors, 540 ; assets, £59. There being no opposition the order was made, the case no t coming under the recent order of the Lord Chancellor, the proceedings having been com►nenced before his Honour. The cases were of no interest. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) PETROS V. THE XEYNSHAM LIME COMPANY (LIMITE//). This was an action to recover the sum of 40s. for the cartage •f lime, by order of the company. Mr. E. Clarke appeared for the plaintiff, who proved he had done the work under the direction of Mr. Bennett, the secretary to ,lhe company. Mr. T. Fuller answered for the company, and said that Bennett was not the secretary but the manager of the com pany, which was not enrolled until February this year, and the debt was contracted previously to the formation of the company. There had been before that time another com pany, under the title if " The Keynsham Lime Company," and it consisted of only four persons ; but that company was given up, and the present company formed. It was entirely a different company. His Honour —Has Bennett anything to do with the new company f Mr. Fuller—Yes; he is the London manager only. I must, therefore, ask for a nonsuit, as the defendants are de scribed as a Limited Company, and was not the one to whom the credit was given. Mr. Clarke... Your Honour will, perhaps, allow us to strike out the word "Limited." Mr. Fuller—Then you abandon the case as against the Limited Company. His Honour said he was sorry there must be a nonsuit. If these Limited Companies wero dealt with over the way as he dealt with them they would not take much. Mr, Clarke, ~j hope you will not allow costs. His Honour —Certainly not. POLICE ---THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. BURGLARY AT A TAVERN.—CAIIITION TO LICENSRD VICTUALLERS:.—Two men, who refused their names and addresses at the station,were charged before Mr. Knox with burglariously breaking and entering the White Hart tavern, Market street, Oxford-street, occupied by Mrs. Susannah Charlotte Testar, a widow. Mr. Henry Martin, eatingbouse•keeper, of 6, Market street, said about one that (Tuesday) morning he was pass ing to his house when he saw the cellar flap of No. 8, Market-street, on opposite side of the way, open, and saw a man descend the cellar and close the flap after him. He (witness) then went over and knocked at the door, and had ir some convervation with Mrs. Testar, the landlady, and to convince her of what he had seen, tried the flap and lifted it up, and then sent for the police and stopped at the SIP and saw the constable bring one of the prisoners up, and afterwards, on the sergeant arriving, saw him also bring the other up. Mrs. Susannah Charlotte Testar, landlady of the White Hart, BA, Market-street, said in consequence of informa— tion given to her by the last witness, she stood by and saw the first man brought up, went to the station and charged him, and on her return saw the other man in custody of the sergeant (Edmonds) at front of the bar and went to the: station again and charged him. Mr. Knox—ls the collar flap fastened with bolts or a chain ? Mt s. Testar —With four bolts. I was in the cellar yester day morning, and it was then bolted as usual. ORe bolt this morning was found broken away. One of the prisoners —Not by me. John Fendick, 194 0, said he was called to the Whifie Hart this morning, and found one of the prisoners concealed in the cellar, and he took him to the station. Sergeant Richard Edwards, 2 C., said about half-past two this nr , aming he went to the Wtrite Hart, and in the cellar found one of the prisoners lyirig flat on his face, covered with rubbish. He called several times, but receiving no answer, and feeling satisfied that some one was concealed there, he jumped on the rubbish, and, the prisoner not liking it, at last called out, and he (Sergeant Edwards) then took him into custody. On searching the prisoners he found a knife and some lucifer matches on them. In the cellar where the man had been lying he found the part of a crowbar or "jemmy," and on the cellar flap there were four or five marks corresponding with it, and one bolt had been forced off by means of it, and a second partly, so sufficient to enable any one to a &et an entrance. Mr. Knox—Mrs. Testar, does the cellar lead to others or direct to the house ? Mrs. Testar—Direct to the house. Sergeant Edwards asked for a remand, which was granted. WESTMINSTER. A VERY EXTRAORDINARY AFFAnt.—Williara Bu chanan, of 12, Ebury-square, Pimlico, was charged with stealing a pail, value a shilling. L. Lingwood, the prosecutor, said this man comes to the house this morning, takes the pail, says it was his, and he means to keep it, and I bought it and paid for it, and I can prove it. Prisoner —The fact is, your worship, we are Loth living with one female. Mr. Arnold —An unfortunate woman, I should think. Prisoner—Yes, your worship. Prosecutor —What has that got to do with my pail ? Prisoner —Why, the pail belongs to us both. This man has been living with the woman eix months, and I have been living lA ith her six years. I have put bread in his mouth. My money and his money both goes to the female ; it's all as one. I superintends the cabs at the Man in the Moon fields, which is near Cremorne, and which I does my duty in, and prosecutor helps me there, which he is justly bound to do, and we use the pail to water the horses, which is what we are there for. We goes home together this morning. He is not married to the female, which I consider is more my property than his. It is her pail, and if she says any thing about my stealing it I'll submit to it. Mr. Arnold—Prosecutor, is there any truth in this state ment about the female P Prosecutor —That's right; but the pail belongs to me. Policeman —There is but one bed, and they both lire and sleep in the same room with the female. The prosecutor and prisoner, both very rough-looking men, stood amazed at this revelation. Mr. Arnold —It is said there is no accouuting for taste. You seem to be partners in the pail as well as in the female. There is at any rate no pretence for calling this a felony, and the prisoner is discharged. MARKETS -THIS DAY. HAY MARKETS.
