Bowyer and W.

LONDON, FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1862. THE FOURTH OF JUL'f,—the anniversary of American Independence —how is it being celebrated while we write ? Are Richmond and Charleston in hands of the Federals, no longer as "independent' American cities, but as the conquests of the North Preparations appear to have been that such should be the case. M'DOWELL'S corps had been ordered to reinforce M'CLELLAN, and James Island, within easy shelling range of Charleston, had been occu pied by a small Federal troop protected by the gun boats, and thus everything was arranged as well as events permitted, to provide for the Northern Fourth of July ovation, a text for glorification of the Stars and Stripes. Whether or not they suc ceeded in this we must wait 10 days or a fortnight to know. Not only the oratorical feats of the Fourth of July called for such a conclusion of the first book of this year's Federal Campaigns, but the atmospheric heats, which, though we have not had much of them, should be overpowering in Vir ginia by this time, rendered it highly important that the army should be freed from the exhausting field duties requisite before Richmond. To-day, indeed, we receive en account which looks unfavourably for the Federals, both from Charleston and the now very important valley of the Shenandoah, the scene of JACKSON'S feats. The fact of that general having been reinforced is now confirmed, and the reader will remember that this means that Washington is ill at ease, that JACKSON could throw himself at any time between M'CLELLAN and Washington, and that he holds a fertile valley the best able in all Virginia to provide food for the Confederate army. This does not look well. The news also from Charleston, seeing it is from Northern sources, is not favourable. A bloody battle with "heavy loss on both sides" has always meant, in Northern phraseology, that the loss was certainly heavy on the side which knew its own loss, and possibly— by no means certainly—so on the other. It is , added, indeed, that the Charleston Tiereury " ex pressed apprehensions for the safety of the city"— which is very natural. With a small army of exasperated Yankees near enough to lay it in ashes, the inhabitants may well be alarmed. Charleston too is the hardened and obstinate author of the rebellion. When the Virginians assembled their Peace Conference at Washington, and so many States, both North and South, willingly sent dele gates to confer, ere too late, on measures of concilia- tion, Charleston sent an almost contemptuous answer, stating that she had gone out for ever, and would henceforth treat with the Federal Govern ment only on the basis of regarding it as the Government of a foreign nation. Richmond has been guilty of light offences compared with those of Charleston, and the 4th of July orators would probably celebrate with more gusto the fall, perhaps the sacking, of Charleston, than the capture or the evacuation of Richmond. What will be the character of these orations this year ? Last year there seemed to be no doubt that the North was soon to give the South its quietus, and the majesty of the Republic, whole and indi visible, was to be the subject of orations for the following year. Hardly a Northerner then doubted that the South would by this time be compelled to submit, and, as they then generally thought, that the Union party in the South would be liberated to assert that superiority of position, character, and education which was supposed to belong to Southern Federalists. Both dreams have entirely vanished in one short year. Bull's Run and its sequences loon dispelled the illusion of superior military prowess ; and the Union party South of the Poto mac, if ever there was one, has disappeared, proba bly for ever. Nothing will now be left the North but vituperation of the South, and proclamation for the twentieth time—" yet thirty days and secession shall be destroyed." There must be in America, however, thinking men in abundance who, as they cannot help seeing both sides of the questions, decline to spout one-sided declamation for the gratification of a vulgar mob. We should like to hear what these men think. It would be worth far more than all the rant of hun dreds of ardent, blind, common-place demagogues who flourish on this, as we must now call it, foolish anniversary. We have got rid of our political ser vices from our Prayer-book; but they had long ce ased to nurture the bad feeling which con structed them. Well would it be for America if she dro pped, as rapidly as she could, this purely mischiev ous . commemoration. That it is made an oceas!on of atonally abusing and ridiculing this country is an evil, One that for the sake of inter national good feelin g we regret, though it does not doubtthe that th e foolish, vulgar, Present day at all, but it htoause ha afar worse w E o n re g s i s tr h tels o e f result lt than this on A mer i c a itself. Th e re can b self-laudation s of the orators-la ureate of this d a y h the formati o n o f have v e the had muchto qualities dowith of the Ameri can most u offensive e national character. While .we meet with in dividual Americans who are all that one gentleman can wish in another, yet nothing is more conspicuous in Americans, as a nation , than that perpetual swsg ger and bluster which they display not only towa r d s ot h er nat i ons , but in their inter course with each o t her. It i s t h e natural spirit of the 4th of July animating the individual. He is a member of the mighty American nation—the Her cules which in its cradle captured English armies, and which now in its early youth is entitled to give lessons on Government, and war to . e ffete old Europe. MONROE doctrines, manifest destiny, and THE 'SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY _4, 1862. all this kind of thing, are the legitimate fruit of this annual extolling of the Federal Union, as a veritable young omnipotent among the nations of the earth. " America, that means the United States, and the United States mean the Sovereign Empire of the World "—this is the sum and sub stance of this day's oratory; and it is not too much to say, that it has thoroughly eradicated from American public character every sentiment of pro priety, modesty, and fairness. Surely too, there must be many men in the Northern States who will feel their own false position—who will see that their own declaration of Independence, which they celebrate, will as much condemn their wish to govern the South against its consent, as it did GEORGE 111. and his advisers, for wishing to govern the original thirteen colonies against theirs. Whatever the North may say of the other slave States having been made what they are by the Union, which can be ill maintained, there can be no question that Virginia, Georgia, and the two Carolinas, were independent States, joining in the rebellion against England on the avowed, and formally and solemnly recorded prin ciple that "the consent of the governed" was essen tial to good government ; and that without that consent government was but tyranny. The other nine States which now attempt to coerce the four, all solemnly agreed to this. Can the nine fail on the fourth of July to be struck with their own inconsistency ? While it was thought, as it was at this time last year, that there was a ma- I jority of the respectability and intellect of the South in favour of Federal Government, the incon sistency might hardly be observed : now when even the PRESIDENT himself will not deny that the South to a man rejects him, the declaration is as condemnatory of Northern usurpation as it is of Southern slavery. As the South se flagrantly violates the Declaration of Independence by negro slavery, they are, however, rightly chastised by the determination of the North to reduce them to political slavery. There need no longer be any anxiety about the Thames Embankment. Lord PALMERSTON has fairly taken it in hand. Knowing which, the public may feel tolerably certain that the Duke of BUCCLEUCE{ will find very considerable difficulty in holding his own. Even though his grace should still continue to have his case sustained by the dis interested advocacy of the right hon. gentleman the member for Stroud ! The amendment which will be proposed by the Noble Viscount at the head of her MAJESTY'S Government will do no more than save the House of Commons from committing itself to the revised proposition submitted to it by the extraordinary perversity, or rather by the very palpable subserviency, to certain ducal influences evidenced by the obsequious majority of the Thames Embankment Committee. Without precisely some such amendment as the one now announced by Lord PALMERSTON as in readiness for the emer gency, there would be a risk of some blundering precipitation in this matter on the part of the Legislature. Let the House accept the Premier's amendment, and every hazard of that kind will at once be dissipated. The public interests, otherwise very seriously jeopardised, will be imme diately secured. At the same time, no in justice whatever will be done to his Grace of BUCCLEUCE{ and QUEENSBERRY. The insidious and really preposterous modification of the origi nal plan, now very recently suggested by the com placent friends of the noble Duke upon the Committee, will not, at any rate, be en dorsed by the House itself in Committee. It will not be forwarded on its way even by a hair's breadth. Extricated from the dilemma—rather cunningly prepared for it—by means of the inge nious, and yet, it should be said, perfectly frank 1 and manly agency of Lord PALMERSTON'S amend ment, the House will set aside the responsibility of any final arrangement of the difficulty now before it until the next session, or possibly, as the Premier intimates, until the session afterwards. For our selves, we sincerely trust that, in regard to the adjustment of this vexatious matter, there may be no unnecessary procrastination, either within or without the walls of Parliament. After the House of Commons has availed itself of the opportunity held out to it now, by the skilled hand of the First Lord of the Treasury—that hand so cunning of fence, so dexterous either at a parry or a thrust — it may, it is true, follow the dictates of its own judgment in the matter, and act, according to its discretion, as summarily or as slowly as it pleases. At any rate, there, to begin with, is Lord PALMER STON'S amendment ready prepared for its immediate acceptance! And we cannot but regard the prompt and unconditional adoption of that amendment as the very simplest and the very surest means that could be suggested for warding off the danger now immi nently threatening the whole scheme of the Thames Embankment. There must be no misapprehension whatever, therefore—above all things, we feel im pressed with the necessity of this conviction being carried home at once to the judgment and even, we would say, to the conscience of the House—there must be no misapprehension whatever, therefore, on the part of the House, as to what would be the consequence of its now promptly availing itself of the Prime Minister's amendment. Lord PALMER- STOWS explanation apon this point is so very clear and so very explicit, that we cannot do better than transcribe here the ipsissima verba, the exact word ing of the Premier's own anticipative comment upon what must arise out of the adoption of his own amendment. Let it be borne in mind, however, first of all, what the amended proposition of the Thames Embankment Committee really has re sulted in. It has led to the introduction of a clause into the Bill now before Parliament—a clause so paltry in its subservency to the whims and fancies of the Duke of Bucci.Euen, and of one or two of his grace's immediate neighbours there in White hall-gardens (one of those near neighbours being the conspicuously public-spirited and perfectly dis interested member for the borough of Stroud)—a clause that would, if passed by the Commons in committee distinctly pledge the House to enact that no roadway shall be made between Whitehall 1 and Westminster Bridge! Remember that! And, as Lord PALMERSTON himself goes on then to remark: —" The effect of that, if passed, would be to give the persons interested—and who avow themselves to be interested—a Parliamentry title to be exempt from having a carriage-way along that portion of the embankment. lam sure that would not be the intention of this House," the Prime Minister then adds, " And therefore I have given notice of an amendment providing that that shall only be till Parliament shall otherwise determine. If the clause should be adopted with that amendment, it would still leave the matter open for further inves tigation ; a n d th e p erso ns concerned could not say, if Parli ament s h ou ld nex t sess i on d e t erm i ne th a t the roa d way should be free for carriages, that they would thus b e ment had thi s object with whi ' G with regard to th e it, claus e itself. If the c l au se s tands with that amendment, the matter will re ouse to reconsider it ma in perfectly oephenl next year. The House will have full liberty, with out giving any pretence of complaint to the parties interested, to open the whole extent of the roadway to Westminster bridge." It would follow, there fore, precisely as we ourselves have previously re marked. The amendment of Lord PALMERSTON is all that anyone could poEsibly have desired as an immediate security of the public interests, now so seriously and imminently threatened by the Duke of BUCCLEUCH and his Grace's advocates. Altogether, thanks to the Premier's well-tempered interposition, as much good as could, in any re spect, have been reasonably looked for, has already resulted from the discussion of the whole of this melancholy transaction, in the House of Commons, yesterday. If for no other reason, we should cer tainly have cause to look back with satisfaction to the debate of last night, for inasmuch as it led to the noble Premier's utterance of these emphatic words, "Now, one thing is certain: let the House deter mine, as they may, upon the Bill as it now stands, let them restrict it as they choose, that restriction will not, cannot be maintained." Words that were at once welcomed by the House with a burst of " Loud and Prolonged Cheering." A declaration so uttered by Lord PALMERSTON, and so received by the House of Commons, dissi pates for once and for all the last vestige of any momentary fear that might for an instant have remained in any one's mind as to the possibility of there being any serious risk now of the public in terests, in this matter of the Thames Embankment, bein g sacrificed for the Duke of BUCCLETICH'S, or for Mr. HoRsMAN'S, or for anybody else's private convenience. There is not the smallest danger of this—we may all of us, henceforth, rest assured. The Chief Commissioner of Parks and Palaces (our English Minister of Public Works), Mr. COWPER, has been dead against any such dis graceful sacrifice of public to private inte rests all along. It is but due to the right hon. gentleman that that should be borne especially in remembrance, in reference to his general career as an administrator, entrusted with the guidance of the affairs of that one important department. Well, but in addition to Mr. COWPER, the public has now that still further security that its interests will, above all other interests, be cared for in the matter of the Thames Embankment—that additional and, indeed, as we may regard it, conclusive guarantee that the affair will so fall out—recognisable in the fact that the Prime Minister, amid the resounding cheers of the House of Commons, pronounces altogether impracticable this attempt to obstruct the broad and right onward course of this Northern Thames Embankment.

A new comediette, entitled "The Silent System," was produced with success last night at this theatre. It gives Mr. Clarke an opportunity of acting, for a quarter of an hour, a modern Othello; and he makes so much of the oppertunity that the audience are convulsed with laughter. In order to produce this situation it is arranged that Mrs. Wideawake (Miss Tungate), a first appearance, shall amuse a lady-killer, Mr. Vane (Mr. Beiford), with a dubious promise of mar riage, be supposing her to be a single lady. She does this in a scene where Mr. Wideawake (Mr. Clarke) is under the table, and endures all the agonies of jealousy. When he has been worked up to a sufficient frenzy, an explanation ensues, and happiness is restored to the married couple. Another couple also are united (Miss F. Hughes and Mr. Collier) for whose sake this justifiable ruse has been perpetrated by the wife. The swell of the Dundreary epecies (Mr. Belford) is left to his ignominious bachelor condition. Miss Tungate, the new actress, is an agreeable and intelligent young lady, who seems thoroughly versed in stage tactics. TONIC SOL-FA DEMONSTRATION. Last night a large body of the pupils of the various Tonic Sol-fa teachers in the metroplis, assisted by the members of classes in different parts of the country, performed Handel's oratorio of " Israel in Egypt" at Exeter-hall. The orchestra was well filled by chorus singers, assisted by a few instrumentalists. Miss Stirling, of St. Andrew Undershaft, presided at the organ, and Mr. Long bottom, an amateur from Bradford, conducted. The object of the gathering was to give a practical dis proof to the assertion that the Tonic Sol-fa system is incapable of conducting the pupils satisfactorily through the intricacies and difficul ties of musical compositions of the highest class. As a demonstration of the power of the Tonic Sol-fa system, it was regarded by the friends of that movement as highly satisfactory, some of the par ties having had not more than two years' training in the classes, and large numbers of them, but for the facilities afforded by this system, would pro bably have been unable to attend anything of the kind with the slightest probability of success. At the close of the performance, the Rev. J. Curwen presented the banners won in the recent contest by the Staffordshire Potteries Class, which gained the first prize, the West Riding Class, which gained the second prize, the City Choral Union, which gained the third prize, and the St. Thomas's Class, which gained the fourth prize. JURYMEN'S GRIEVANCES, IMILTVAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN. A special meeting of this company was held yes terday at the Waterloo-station to cone der a pro position for the purchase of the Petersf eld Railway for about £106,000, Captain Mangles is the chair. Mr. CLARKE, the Secretary, read the notice con vening the meetitg. The CHAIRMAN said they had received a proposi tion for the purchase of the Petersfield Railway. It was about 104 miles in length, and would form a junction at Midhurst with the Brighton Com pany's line. The company had already been put to considerable expense in defending their Southamp• ton traffic, and he trusted that the purchase of this short line would have the effect of putting a stop to invasion from that quarter. They thought it a sound measure, under the circumstances, to purchase the line ; and he hoped they would have the sup port of the proprietors in that respect. He believed the line would serve as a feeder to their direct Ports mouth Railway, and not be unremunerative in other respects. He concluded by moving a formal reso lution approving the terms of the provisional agree ment for the purchase of the Petersfield undertaking , and authorising the directors to carry the same into effect. Dr. SNOW seconded the motion, and it was carried unanimously. Mr. MICH ELL thought that the complaints that had recently been made by travellers on their line as to the irregularity of some of the trains ought not to be passed over in silence, and he trusted some explanation would be given. The CHAIRMAN said there had recently been a most unprecedented pressure of traffic on some of the railways, particularly on their line. It was a matter of deep regret to the directors that there should be any cause of complaint, and he was cer tain that Mr. Scott, their manager, had done his best on all occasions to remedy those evils. He could assure the proprietors that the board had no wish, in their endeavours to accommodate a very large traffic, to diminish the comforts of the passengers in any respect. (Hear, hear.) The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. RAILWAY BILLS. Yesterday, after hearing Sir F. Slade on the whole case of the East Glocestershire Railway, the com mittee, of which the Duke of Bucelench is chairman, passed so much of the measure as relates to that portion of the line between Farringdon-road and Bourton-on-the-Water, and from the latter point to Sandford Mead, a short distance from Cheltenham, ignoring the other portions of the project, including the carrying of the line continuously by a tunnel under Cheltenham, which was opposed by the in habitants, and intended by the promoters to form a junction with the Great Western on the other side of Cheltenham. Mr. Saunders, for the promoters, intimated that they would take time to consider the decision prior to bringing up the clauses; and the committee adjourned. After hearing the opposi tion of the North Staffordshire to the Stafford and Uttoxeter Railway, in Lord Wodehouse's Commit tee, the bill was passed; and that of the Wellington and Cheshire Junction was proceeded with, Mr- Merewether, Q,C, opposing for the London and North-Western ; but the committee passed the bill, although solicited to suspend their decision until the competing case of the Wellington, Drayton, an det Newcastle was heard.

Th ° feat, however, was at length accomplished, and Herr Paul sen received the warmest congratulations from his com peers, returning once again from solitary mental imprison ment to the amenities of social life, Yesterday there were two consultation matches formed in, lieu of the telegram matches, and in each case the prise wa £5, and the English wer e o pp ose d t o th e f ore i g ners in th e following manner—H err L owent h a l, on acc ount of 1 11 0 long residence here, being reckoned with the former FIRST CONSULTATION MATCH.

The following gentlemen having each lost two games are no longer in the tournament : Lord Lyttelton, Messrs. Medley, Blackburne, Schroder, Heathcote, Pearson, Stockil, Chinnery, Puller, Salter, and Young. The game in the Grand Tournament that yesterday attracted most attention was that between the Rev. Mr. Owen and Mr. Mongredieu. They had already played two games which had both resulted in a draw, and the game of yesterday was therefore regarded with great inte rest. Mr. Owe n h a d the first move, but Mr. Al o ngredieu adopted a close openin g, and the game in its earlier s ta g es was consequently c f a not very ex citing character. As it g proceeded the interest increased, and for a long period the chances were quite evenly balanced. Mr. Owen at length succeeded in turning the flank of his opponent, and after a short but brilliant skirmish succeeded in gaining the vic i tory. The game lasted from four o'clock u ntil half-past nine, and eztPuded over more than 60 roves. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sir,—lf the unnecessary inconvenience to which jurymen are but too often subjected has the cause inquired into and removed, the public have good reason to thank you for allowing the grievance to be set forth in your columns ; and if you will kindly permit me to offer a suggestion, which did not occur to me at the time of writing my last letter, I shall feel greatly obliged, It is this—That the common jury empanelled for the first cause on the day's list, should be the jury for all causes on that day; this would enable the rest to leave with the day before them to attend to their own affairs, and thus obviate that great loss of time which to many is a serious consideration. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servant, GEORGE ELLIS. London, July 4, 1862. MESSRS. BRIGHT AND COBDEN ON FINANCIAL REFORM. At the last meeting of the Council of the Liverpool Financial Reform Association, letters from Mr. Bright, M.P., and Mr. Cobden, M.P, were read. Of Mr. Bright's epistle the following is a passage :—" I am afraid the question of direct taxation is not making much progress. With an expenditure so enormous as that of our Govern ment, I see no chance of anything being done ; and reduced expenditure can only come from some great calamity and suffering to the people, or from a revolution of opinion on all questions of foreign policy, such as, at present, I see little chance of. Perhaps what is gradually coming upon our un fortunate country may bring some men to their senses." Mr. Cobden wrote as follows :—" There can be no doubt that to abolish customs duties would be, both in a moral and politico•economical sense, one of the greatest reforms the world could witness. I suppose that, because the boon would be so univer sal and so great, mankind will be slow to adopt it ; for the greatest truths seem to struggle the longest for recognition, even when they are the most ob vious to those who will examine them." The CHAIRMAN (Mr. J. R. Jeffery) suggested that Mr. Bright should be informed that he was mistaken in the supposition that the cause was making little progress, the contrary being manifest from the great addition to the number of members since the lecturing operations commenced, the lively interest exhibited, the committees formed in the various towns visited, and the prospects of still greater success from perseverance in similar modes of agitation. THE YELVE.RTON CASE. EDINBURGH, Thursday.—La the case of Yelver ton v. Longworth Lord Ardmillan has issued his interlocuter. In the action of declarator by Miss Longworth, he finds that the pursuer has not in structed that she is the wife of the defender, and he assoilzes the defender.

CRYSTAL PALACE ROSE Snow.—This popular show will be held to-morrow (Saturday), and from the entries it is anticipated that it will be thelargest show ever held. All the most celebrated growers of roses, both nur serymen and amateurs, have entered for competition, the number of trusses of roses competing exceeding four thou sand. Many new roses will be exhibited, and collections of roses in pots, and in vases, and ornamental stands, suita ble for table decorations, will also be well represented. Numerous inquiries having been made this season for a low rope performance by M. Blondin, it will take place at four o'clock to-morrow, in the centre transept, thus combining with the rose show, the military and other bands, a more than ordinary attraction even for the Crystal Palace.
