Such is the deliberate conclusion of a thinker who has sur veyed the wide field before him in all its parts, with an eye on the past as well as the present, and with an eye to the future as well as the past; and in this conclusion we cordially agree. But we do not agree with him in his opinion, that even in " some degree" it has been a " gratuitous task" at this moment to demonstrate the soundness of this con clusion, and to show that neither in the true inte rest of the millions inhabiting the South, nor in the true interests of the millions inhabit ing the North, neither in the interest of Europe nor of the .world at large, espe- - &illy the African continent, is it desirable that the Southern Confederacy should gain its ends. It is still needful to show that the present outbreak is not an isolated Phenomenon, but the " crowning result, the inevitable climax of the past history.of American politi&F," foreseen, dreaded, staved off by her statesmen in a score of vain concessions to the slave power. The events have occurred in 1( gical sequence, and the fatal principle, allowed to retain its vitality by the victors in the War of Indepen dence, has acquired a magnitude which involved the War of Secession. i e:e - GREAT WESTERN CHEAP EXCURSION to the SEA '4.4IDE.

The Fulham and the Temple were off first, the other making but a very indif ferent start, but soon got so well to work that there was not half a length between any of the three at the Point. The Western crew then went ahead, the Fulham leading the Temple slightly. On arriving at Hammersmith-bridge the Western crew was only one length clear of the Fulham, with about the same distance between Fulham and Temple. The Fulham crew, after passing through Hammersmith-bridge, went wide of their course, and Temple tried to go by insi4, when the Fulham crew touched them, and, although coming in second, were dis qualified because of the foul.

N TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors In relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular.

The Coroner, in summing up, pointed out the importance of great caution in such matters as the shunting of carriages, ani the room having been cleared, the jury consulted for some time, and ultimately returned the following verdict : —" That the death of the deceased was accidentally caused, but the jury strongly recommend that no repairs, however slight, be done to carriageson the line upon which carriages are to be shunted, unless notice be previously given to the shunter." Mr. Pilgrim, who attended on behalf of the company, said he would attend to the recommendation of the jury. Prince Paul Esterhazy, who is in his 77th year, fell a few days ago, while walking in his room at Cm-lsbad, and broke his leg.

After a couple of failures the lot got off on pretty good terms, with the exception of Rosabella and The Quaker, - whtt'were Tett considerably in the rear. The running was made by Commander, who was closely pressed by True Blue, Peru, Mermaid, and Spicebox. Crossing the road, Spicebox drew forward, and immediately afterwards Com mander held out signals of distress, and rapidly retiring, Peru, True Blue, Mermaid, and Spicebox came on in a line. Half-way up the straight, True Blue quitted her op ponents, and won easily by five lengths ; a head divided second and third. Spicebox was a good fourth, Rosa bella was last throughout, and The Quaker finished last but one.

At the quarter of a mile post, Kennet and Hilly Grove drew forward, and a splendid race ensued from the road crossing ; the favourite, however, answered every call made upon him, and won cleverly at last by a couple of lengths.

At the road-crossing, Rhcebus closed with The Don, and the pair went up the straight head and head.

Yesterday morning an inquiry was held by Mr. W. Payne, coroner for the city of London, at the New Pun cheon Tavern, Bloomfield-street, Finsbury-circus, touch ing the death of Mr. Thos. Lock, aged 62, who committed suicide on Friday last, under peculiarly distressing circum stances. Mr. F. Lock, the son of the deceased, said that his father resided at No. 1, Bell-square, Finsbury =circus, of which house he had formerly been the owner. About 18 months since he had the misfortune to lose those premises, which preyed greatly upon his spirits, and shortly afterwards his wife died, when his mina became so much affected that he was deprived of a lucrative situation which he held in the City- He then separated himself from his family and took effectually, lodgings in his old house, where he seemed so distracted at I le prospect of poverty that his friends called in two phy sicians but 1.e.! who, however, deClined to certify to his insanity, his ‘, .enimende d that precautions should be taken against door, ,:-=estreyht ghimself.

Second Heat. Lambeth Crew 1 Rory O'More Crew The Lambeth Crew.—E. Carter, A. Hopkins, J. Chain. man, R. Bain, and J. Hill, coxswain. The Rory O'More Crew.—G. Cooper, C. Moore, J. Bonny, H, Freshwater, and W. Eines, coxswain. There was nothing of interest to record in this heat. The winners started with the lead, and were so markedly su perior to their opponents that they went right away and won at their ease. Grand Heat. Lambeth Crew Western Crew 0 _ _ _ The Lambeth crew took the lead immediately after the start, retained it throughout, and won easily. The Fourth, or Losers' Heat. The Temple Crew The Fulham Crew The Western Crew 0 The Rory O'More Crew 0 A very capital start was effected, immediately after which the last-named crew took a slight lead, but were unable to keep it more than 150 yards, the race being rowed down from Chiswick Eyot to Putney -bridge. The Western and Fulham then went in front, and the latter drawing upon the former, took the lead. The Temple crew, who had been astern, now began to mend their posi tion, and challenging the Fulham crew, drew slightly ahead of them at the Crab Tree, but a fine race was kept up to the finish, and it was only won by a length ; the third boat was a length and a half astern of the second. Scullers' Race, open to the world, except the present Champion of the Thames. The first two boats in each of the trial heats to row in the grand heat. First Heat. G. Everson, Greenwich E. Eager?, Chelsea J. Mackiuney, Richmond 0 C. Turner, Rotherhithe 0 The last named did not start well. The others wore off together very finely, Everson with the lead, Mackinney second, and Eagers close up. At the Point Eagers came up with Mackinney, and after a fine dashing race went ahead of him at Craven, but off the Soap-work Mackinney again came up very gallantly to his quarter, but could not pass him. Everson won easily, but the race between the others for second place was, as will be seen, very fine. Second Heat. George Drouett, Chelsea.. 1 E. Cooper, Newcastle 2 G. Hammerton, Kingston 0 T. Crout, Woolwich They were all off together, then Hammerton took a slight lead, followed by Cooper, and next came Drouett. Off the Star and Garter Cover took the lead, and gradually in : now came up with great pace upon Hammerton, who fell astern. A very fine race now ensued between Drouett and Cooper, in which they rowed scull and scull to the Soap.. works, where Drouott took the lead, and won by half a length. Grand Heat. R. Cooper, Newcastle 1 E. Eagers, Chelsea G. Drouett, Chelsea . . 0 G. Everson, Greenwich ....., The latter is a great smiler, but perhaps did not care to do much in the race. He and Cooper took the lead, Edgers close upon them, and at the Crab Tree they were all level, and Everson may be said to have left off rowing there, and the result of a most determined race between Cooper and Eagers was that the former won by half his length. Champion Four-oared Race. Open to the World. Claspers' Crew, Newcastle London Crew .. 0 Hammersmith Crew The Newcastle Crew.—J. H, Clasper, E. Winship, H. Chambers, H. Clasper, and It, Clasper, coxswain. The London Crew.—J. W. Tagg, W. Bell, J. Mac kinney, H. Kelly, and J. Mackinney, coxswain. The Hammersmith Crew.—J. Hoare, T. Hoare, jun., T. Hoare, G. Green, and T. Green, coxswain. This race attracted, as it ever has since its first establish ment, universal attention, and the greatest races ever rowed upon the Thames have been for the champion prize. The success of the Claspers at the Thames Regattas has long been a theme of praise, and they were, as they have often been before, the favourites. Mr. T, S. Egan, of the University of Cambridge, kixdly consented to take the onerous duty of umpire in this race, and the committee boat, the Venus, which had been motion less up to this time, was now put upon her speed, and ac companied the race. The Hammersmith crew had the best place, next to them the London, and the Newcastle had the worst position. It was supposed that the race would entirely lie between the Newcastle and London crews, and the for mer were backed at 5 and 6 to 4, and there was a great deal of money laid out upon the event. Mr. Egan started them all admirably, and for something like 50 yards they were all level, but immediately afterwards the Newcastle and London began to leave the Hammersmith men astern. Off the Star and Garter, the race being rowed up from Putney to Chiswick Eyot, the Claspers showed the nose of their boat in front, and a most determined struggle was carried on between this and Craven Cottage, where, notwithstand ing the extraordinary exertions of the Londoners, the New castle men, who had gained their lead inch by inch, were just drawing their stern from being overlapped, and the Newcastle men were not over well steered. The Londoners still rowed with great power, but their opponents continued, as before, to increase their lead, and about fig slowly. The Newcastle men passed under Hammersmith-bridge half a length clear. After passing througii lltunmennuith-bridge the Londoners got closer on the Surrey-side, and avoiding some of the wind, they gained a trifling advantage, but still the Newcastle men led, and gallantly pulled on with the same regularity and steadiness as at first, and they finally won by three-quarters of a length clear ; the Hammel • smith men were half-a-dozen lengths astern of the Lon doners. Watermen's Apprentices Race, rowed in old-fashioned boats with six boards, and in three streaks. First Heat. Horace Cole, Chelsea .................. 1 W.

Much regularity was kept up by Mr. Stephen Salter's able management of thO umpire's watermen. CIIINESE EMIGRATION. —An act Was passed in 1861 by the Colonial Legislature to regulate and restrict the immigration of Chinese to New South Wales. It im poses, as had been previously done in Vi c t or i a, a t ax o f £lO on each male nati ve of China arriving in the colony, whether by sea or land. Chinese already in th e c o lo n y are exempted from the tax on obtai▪ ning a certificate from the nearest clerk of petty sessions or gold commissioner on or before Feb. 28, 1862. It also provides that no ship shall bring Chinese into the colony i▪ n a greater prop or tion than one person to every t en tons of the ship's to nnage, an d tha certificates of naturalisation shall not in future be issued to Chinese, The act has been left to its operation, but, as the strong objections felt by the Australian colonies to this great measure from its ex clusively immi gra ti o n arise in g male character, it has been suggested that some modifica tions might Le made in its provisions where the immigrants are accompanied by a proportion of women. "I beg leave to call your attention to the follow ing facts relative to the -cotton trade. "The position of the trade has now assumed such a serious aspect that we cannot afford to anticipate obstacles to our obtaining a supply of the raw material, or cripple our energies by allowing our selves to be thwarted by official impediments. Millions are at present suffering from a scarcity of cotton, and it must be had. This is the only way in which we can possibly mitigate our present distress. " There appears no prospect whatever of our re ceiving anything like a supply from, merica for a very considerable period, and even looking at it in the most favourable light, and adopting the views of some whose ' wish is father to the thought,' that the war may soon be ended, and the whole of their cotton be sent here, the results would ultimately be even more distressing than they are now, for it is very certain that the United States have not planted this year as much as will suffice for their own con sumption. Consequently, in 12 months from this date we should have to face another cotton famine even worse than the present, as from the preference always so stubbornly shown by the trade for Ameri can cotton, all countries now exerting themselves to produce it would be discouraged from further planting before they had reached a practical system of cultivation, and thus our whole resources would be prostrated. " Under such circumstances (and it has never yet been confuted) our text must be India produces annually 6,000,000 bales of cotton,' a share of which we must have. " The great obstacles to our obtaining a sufficiency of cotton from India are, that the European mer chants as a rule have no agents in the interior ; the extortions of the middlemen ; the lack of knowledge on the part of the native growers as to the value of cotton at the ports ; and the want of adequate means of conveyance. These are impediments which at all risks must be broken through, or thousands will starve ere they are eradicated by official routine. Cotton must be obtained and brought here at almost any cost. In 1860 the low average of 3, 1 ,-d per lb. brought us 662,674 bales from India ; surely present prices of from 9,id to 110 will leave a margin suffi cient to cover any reasonable expense of transit, even if carried on the heads of natives to the ports. "If we are prevented from getting cotton from India through the want of roads and other means of conveyance, it will prove the second famine, within a very short period, which has been occasioned through the want of those neceasary auxiliaries. And we shall soon find that it is not only the manu facturing districts that are suffering from the want of a means of obtaining cotton from India, but—so long as the native growers, being ignorant of the present value of cotton here, are selling it to the na tive manufacturers of India at something like id per lb., while our consumers are paying 9d to 12d for the same cotton—that the manufacturers of India R ill be able to supply their cloths so very much cheaper than the European merchants, and that the latter will not be able to dispose of British goods within a wide mark of their cost. " Seeing, then, that the native cotton growers of India are in complete ignorance of the high prices ob tained for cotton ; that the merchants of India have so little direct communication with the interior; that the native dealers, or middlemen, are blinding the eyes of the growers to the excessive demand that at present exists for Indian cotton ; and that they are deficient in the means of transit, it becomes imperative upon the people of this country—for all are vitally interested—to Qrovide_ the means of India, and sending it here by road, river, and sea, without the least unnecessary delay. For this purpose I would suggest that a company shall be formed, under the auspices of the members of the House of Commons, representing the cotton manu facturing districts, the mayors of the various towns the chairman of the Chambers of Commerce, the chairman of the Cotton Supply Association, and the chairman of the Manchester Cotton Company, with an executive committee of practical and energetic merchants and manufacturers, the object of which must be to purchase cotton in India and send it here. When once the native growers are practi cally enlightened as to the demand for cotton and its price at the sea-board, growing cotton for export will become an extensive established custom, and our supplies thence rapidly and extensively in creased, " But, as it would occupy a considerable time to get such a company in working order, and send out agents to India, I further suggest that the Govern ment shall be solicited to employ their staff of offi cers, in their several localities in India, to purchase cotton direct from the native growers, and have it conveyed to the ports in the readiest manner pos sible—the Government to advance the money for this object, which would be refunded to them on the delivery of the cotton to agents appointed by the company at the ports. This would prove a great relief to the trade of this country until the company could get their agents into working order in India. ,‘ Now, I have no doubt that this appeal to the Government willl be objected to on various grounds —but we must not forget that in 1847 they ad vanced £8,000,000 to Ireland during the famine caused by the failure of the potato crop, the effects of which were nothing as compared with what is certain to be the case should our present supply of cotton become exhausted. Nor do we lack even a more direct precedent. The present Emperor of the French, during the scarcity of corn, sent agents into all parts of Europe to pur chase grain, wit h means provided from the French Treasury. In fact, there is only one of two alter natives left for the Government to pursue—either to lend their practical assistance to procure cotton from India, or to find the means for supporting the people as they are thrown out of work from a want of cotton. It has been said that 5,000.000 of people are affected by the dearth of cotton ; but, if our supplies are stopped, two-thirds of the whole empire will be most seriously affected. " Such a proposition may appear extraordinary ; but I consider that the occasion is far more extra ordinary than the remedy sought for its relief, when it is considered that the stock of cotton in Liver pool is only equal to four and a half weeks' con sumption, as in 1860 ; and what is of more import ance still, from this has to be deducted our re exports of cotton, which for the last four weeks have averaged 25,865 bales per week, or,o the h aggregate, 103,865 bales (about equal t the stock at present held in Liverpool the 6th of June the stock of cot ton held ci ne. while alf in on ign Europe was only 50,751 bales six months our importsl to 9,080 years, p o h r a t s , bales, while the quantity taken by the trade w ;an L d iN t -e h r a p t o l o n l t s h h e ow las a weekly average of only t a lthough so much b elow p averaged 29,370 bales. of the House of Common s e r e e h v l i y ou f s ronl " Were the mem bers the manufac turin g districts to hold conne cted with a meetin g on this subject in London, I feel assured Way mu ch good would result ndmy from plea part , byor t of is paving l.ittish et rtandee addressinga and d f o r some decided action on the f its dependen cies a you the knowledge thatthealreadyLtieans of obt a i n i ng food, and _ 59 persons are w ithout work n 198,000 employed o n l y one-half their time.--I have the honour to be, yo ur most o b edient entirely servant, " EICIIARD BURN." 111ONTGOMERISUIRE ELECTION.--Mr. Charles Watkin Williams Wynn, COllBlll of the late member, and Capt. the Hon. S. C. G. Hanbury Tracey, eldest son of Lord Sudeley, Lord Lieutenant of the county, have an nounced themselves candidates, the former in the Conser. Tative, and the latter in the Radical and Dissenting interest, The report having been adopted, Mr. GREATIIEAD read a statement of the financial position of the society, which was also passed, and some further formal business was transacted ; among other things Lord Lyttelton was elected a vice-president. The CHAIRMAN then called attention to the spe cial subject of discussion, as contained in the agenda—viz., " The Ecclesiological Aspect, on the International Exhibition, and of the Exhibition (on loan) of Fine Arts at the South Kensington Museum." In inviting this discussion he remarked upon the bewildering multitude of objects which, while pressing for notice, rendered distinct and separate notice impossible, except in a few cases; and he enforced the necessity of fixing attention on a few great points, with a view to their arrival at a practical result. He had, he said, himself wandered up and down the mazes of the International Exhi tion, and he had been peculiarly struck with the little appreciation of architecture shown by her Majesty's commissioners; they had given neither time nor opportunity for a proper display of archi tectural objects. Germany had a few great speci mens there, and Holland had a few ; France not one—for Prince Napoleon's Pompeian Villa, though very pretty, was not new as a design, it was only a restoration. The gallery devoted to architectural drawings was well worth a visit for its delineation of English architecture in 1862. Its merit on the whole was very high, more especially with refe rence to Gothic designs. With regard to ecclesiolo gical art, he expressed his delight at the opportu nity which the Exhibition gave of opening their Mediaeval Court,which was an honour to the society, and paid a high compliment to the screen prepared for Hereford Cathedral by Mr. Skidmore, while be admitted that it was not above criticism. Min ton's fountain also came in for its share of praise— as the germ of future marvellous developments, as did other specimens of ceramic ware, pottery, hard ware, and incised painting. The chairman then glanced at the foreign ecclesiological works con tained in the International Exhibition, criticising, either generally or in detail, as he proceded ; and he concluded by advocating the embodiment of every useful point which could be gathered from the Ex hibition into that particular system of ecclesiology with which the society more especially identified itself. A somewhat inactive discussion followed, and the proceedings were closed by a vote of thanks to the chairman. THE SLAVE POTVER AND THE SECES- SION WAR. (From the National Review.) The most striking and weighty phenomenon in the history of the United States of North America the slave power. The sympathy expressed so loudly in England on behalf of the Southern Confederacy has its origin in loose and inaccurate notions of what the Southern Confederacy has been, of what it is, and of what it would be, were it permitted to do velope itself unmolested in obedience to its in stincts and unavoidable tendencies. The bare fact that it is a slave power—that is, a power with slavery for its " corner stone"—and the other fact that this slavery is of a kind entirely new in the history of the world, ought to have made the public writers and public speakers of England turn with dismay from the mere thought of lending their support to such a power, and pour ing out their sympathies on its behalf. It is diffi cult to account for this strange perversion of whole some British opinion. It is difficult to understand how, with the history of the past accessible, the facts of the present patent to all eyes, the prospects of the future unclouded and unveiled, any one could be content with the shallow explanation that the present contest is for empire on the one side and independence on the other. No doubt some have been led away by a blind hatred of democracy; others have been irritated by the reckless violence of Northern newspaper writers, and the mad speeches of hack politicians; others, again, have desired success to the South because they think it better for the world that there should be more na tions than one within the enormous territory, stretching from ocean to ocean, owned by the United States ; and there are not wanting those who have Southern sympathies because they have accepted Southern hospitality. It would be useless to deny the force of these influences; they are around us in full operation, and their fruits are visible every day. But it is strange that such in fluences should have been adequate to blind thought ful men to the true character of the contest, and the immense issues it involves. It is strange that our public teachers should contemplate with some thing more than indiffe rence, in many cases with absolute approval, the rise in the heart should break visit of an overshadowing slave power, and s on the heads of those who are anttmemp t ' of America tng to gated censure, and bind that power their and comment on the progress u of the attempt with continuous and enven omed hostility. The fact is the more remarkable because we have rid ourselv es o f slavery ; althoug h was not with us, as it i s and has been wit h the it United States, the c an k er at the core of their po litical and social in s tit ut i ons. We can 4bnly account for the fact by the supposi tion been blinded i n a siynmflupeanthceisseNryse tion that by o th ur e blinded men tioned to the teaching of history. And were it not that o pinion, in a country where p u bli c i ty prevails, rect ifi e s itself rapidly and effectually , We should look with considerable apprehension for the future of England upon the recent manifestations of Eng lish opinion on the side of a slave power. Professor Cairnes has done good service, not to the Federal Government, but to truth, by the pub lication of the volume the title of which we have placed at the head of this article. His book will be found to be, n ot I a speculative commentary, but a logical demonstration. The facts on which he bases his arguments and conclusions are probably familiar to the bulk of our readers, for we have repeatedly indicated the character of the Southern Confederacy; but in no other work exists so methodical and for cible a delineation of its origin and growth, and especially of its essential attributes and designs. The strong convictions of an ardent thinker are ex pressed in the measured and temperate language of a philosophical historian. The reasonings and con clusions rest upon the solid ground of unquestion able historical, physical, and economic facts. The volume, in short, is a compact and truthful analysis of the structure, -functions, and necessary tendencies of the power which is now seeking by force of arms to establish its baleful domination over half a con tinent. " Whatever," says Professor Cairnes, t "w i e may think of the tendencies of democratic ins d 1- Li o ns, or of the influ ence o f territorial magnitude on the American character, no theory framed upon these or upon any other incidents of the contend ing parties, however ingeniously constructed, will • suffice to conceal the fact that it is slavery which Yesterday was another good average day at the building, the total attendance being 62,336, o f which 56,770 were by payment and 5,556 by season tickets. There was music in all the side courts and =der both eastern and western domes, so that there was always as much to hear as to see, and the day passed off With even more than usual eclat. The preparations for the fete of Friday, the 11th of July, when the declaration of prizes to the various exhibitors will take place, are going actively forward? and no effort is being spared to make this one of the most imposing pageants of the year. Official invitations have already gone from the Foreign-office to the various Continental Courts, asking for the honour of Royal or distinguished personages to represent their countries on this oc casion. We believe there is no doubt that in nearly every instance these invitations will be accepted, among others, on the part of France, by Prince Napoleon; for Belgium, by the Duke de Brabant; for Austria, by the Archduke; for Russia, by the Grand Duke Michael (who is on his way here from Baden) ; and for Spain, by the Duke de Montpen sier. The Prince of Prussia will not, we believe, be able to attend, but will name a distinguished officer to represent him, as also will Italy, Portu gal, Switzerland, and the Duchies of the Zollve rein. Invitations have also been issued to France, Austria, Prussia, Belgium, Holland, and Italy, ask ing each of those countries to send a representative military band. As a matter of course, this invita tion will be accepted, and each of the countries we have mentioned will sena a corps of about 100 per formers, the very elite of their military bandsmen. With these will be ten British military bands — those of the Horse Guards, 2d Life Guards, RcYal Artillery (two bands), Royal Engineers, Grenadier, Coldstream, and Fusilier Guards; Royal Marines, and that of the South Kensington Volunteer En gineers. These 16 bands will be placed in groups of four at different parts of the Horticultural Gardens and in the Exhibition building; but at the close of the ceremonial they will all be brigaded into one, under the conduct of Mr. Godfrey, to play the National Anthem. On the occasion of this cere monial the Exhibition building and the Horticzil tural Gardens will be treated as one, the season ticket, or ticket purchased for that day, admitting to both. The visitors, as at the opening of the Exhibition, will be admitted from 10 a.m. till 12 30, but no later. At 12 o'clock all the jurors will assemble in the South Court of the Exhibition ac cording to their classes, each class being indicated by a banner carried by a Sapper, and thence they will proceed across the nave to the upper terrace or the Horticultural Gardens.

At 1 o'clock the Royal and other international re presentatives, some of whom we have mentioned, will be received by a guard of honour at the North entrance to the Gardens, where the Royal Com missioners will also be in waiting, and will conduct them to the dais in the Gardens, where they will receive the awards of the juries of the various classes for each of their respective countries. Her Majesty has named his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge as her representative to receive and distribute the awards to the exhibitors of the colonies and United Kingdom. The juries having delivered their awards, a procession will be formed , which will enter the building by the Eastern An nexe, and, passing down the nave, return through ' the Western Annexe to the dais in the gardens. During the progress of this procession the medals and awards will be distributed. At va rious stations on the English side of the building will be assem bled the national and trade co mmittees, with. the mayors of the great manufacturing towns, foreign commissioner who will receive the English awards from the Duke each c from o f Ca bridge . w i O l In receive foreign ei thegw n side a a r special representative sent by his own country, or, in his absence, from his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge. This ceremony, unless d o ne in a who lesale manner, is likel y to occupy some time, as nearly 11,000 medals h ave b een vote d by the various juries. Throughout the whole route of the proce ssion a bro ad avenue will be kept, wh i c h will be marked by seats, and these seats we are glad to say are to be occupied by ladies only. After the distribution has taken place, the proces sionb ds will all be returns to the dais, where the an assembled togeth er t o p l ay " God Save the Queen, " and for the rest of the afternoon will perform vari ous national airs. This is a rough general outline of the programme for this occasion, and if the weather is only propitious--a more than doubtful matter when the Horticultural Gardens are con cerned—the whole fete ought to be successful- ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. GREAT INTERNATIONAL SHOW. Yesterday 38,000 persons paid their shilling to enter the great inclosure where the Royal Agricul tural Society of England and the Highland Society of Scotland present the combined attraction of all our native breeds of animals, and all our best forms of rural mechanism. A throng of eager sightseers all day crushed to get a glimpse of a smart pony, n a. Chinese sheep, or a monstrous snoring bacon, crowded equally around the Duke of Atholl's prettily of White milk dressed milkmaid to watch the novel process of fill itnhge l a it m tle ilk ne -p g a r i o l o c r al t v h e e s r ich f t e h e a d t in h g av w e i , th for day. an visited us from beyond the Tweed.
