The Bank of England have notified that the balances in the books of the Reduced Three per Cents., New Three per Cents., and other govern munt stocks, on which the dividends fall due iu October, will be struck on the evening of the Ist September. The half-yearly report of the directors of the Stockport, Disley, and Whaley-bridge Railway Company recommends a dividend on the ordinary capital at the rate of £1 7s. 6d. per cent per annum: It appears that no date has vet been fixed for the commencement of the action of the 2 per cent. annual sinking fund nominally assigned to the Turkish Internal Stock. The Edinburgh has arrived from New York with £lO,OOO in specie. In all commercial circles arrangements for the usual autumnal holidays are becoming general, and business in the various markets cannot fail soon to exhibit the effects of the diminishing attendance. The demand for money continues steady, both at the Bank of England and Leadenhall-street, and little business is done below 2 per cent. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes Opened at 68f. 95c., and closed at 68f. 85c. for money, and 68f. 95c. for the account, being the same as yesterday. The first general meeting of the Great Eastern Railway Company is called for Sept. 9. A special meeting of the Bahia Steam Naviga tion Company is called for the 23d inst., to con firm the alterations in the articles of association re commended by the imperial government of Brazil.

The extraordinary general meeting of the Eng lish and Australian Copper Company is called - for the 28th instant, at two o'clock, at the London Tavern. In the foreign exchanges this afternoon there was no alteration of importance from last Friday, except that the quotation on Paris was rather higher, _ _ _ There were no gold operations at the Bank.to. day. The Australian amounts just arrived will not be carried to the Bank, but will be retained on the market to meet the further demands for Peru and the other countries that have recently contracted loans. About 50,000 sovereigns will be taken from the Bank to-morrow for transmission'to Constantinople. The late purchases of the Six per Cent. Consolides have caused some demands for remittances to that quarter. At the Liverpool cotton market to-day, there was a good demand, especially for Surats and E g yptians, and sales were about 15,000 bales, at extrehne rates. CITY NEWS---THIS DAIL TWELVE O'CLOCK. A full inquiry for money is reported in the Discount Market to-day, but it is not attended with the slightest change as regards the quotations. Very few, if any, bills are negotiated under the minimum of the Bank of England, although the available supplies are still understood to be largely in excess of eurrent demands. Gold is now about 2-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris, and 6-10ths per cent. higher here than in Hamburg. A call of £2 10s. per share, amounting in the aggregate to £18,750, becomes due to-morrow (21st inst.) on the Rhymney Railway 6 per cent. Pre ference Shares. An instalment of 5 per cent. will fall due on the Ist proximo on the New Portuguese Loan. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. Towards the close of business yesterday after noon increased buoyancy was perceptible in the market for public securities, and the tendency of prices appeared to be in the ascendant. This Morning the earlier transactions took place at the enhanced prices, but within the last, hour a few sales have taken place, which have led to a slight reaction. It is not im probable that some of the speculators who bought at lower prices have closed their engagements to realism profits, and hence the diminished firmness now apparent. Upon the whole, however, the aspect of affairs must be considered satisfactory, Consols being 9311 for money, and 93 for the account. The New Threes and the Reduced have further improved to 93! 2 ; Exchequer Bills have risen to 18s to 21s prem. ; Bank Stock has receded to 238 ; India ditto, to 227 and 229, but the 5 per Cent. Loan has advanced to 108! e. The transactions in the Foreign Market have been rather numerous, and prices have shown a further upward movement. Turkish Securities continue to attract the chief attention, the 6 per Cents„ of 1854, have advanced to 861 87; ditto, of 1858, to 711 721 ; ditto New Loan Scrip, to 1 Of dia. ; and the Internal Debt has risen to 351 36; Egyptian Scrip is 121 131 prem. ; ditto, 2d issue, 101 HI prem. ; Portuguese Scrip, 21; Russian Scrip, I prem. ; Italian 5 per Cents. are 707 1; Moorish nave improved to 94; and Mexican, to 24- 1 1." Business in the Railway Share Market continue moderately active, and a further slight improve ment has taken place in prices. North Westerns and South Easterns have advanced 5s ; and Great Westerns and Lancashire and Yorkshire, 105. ; South Westerns and Midlands, however, have re ceded about 10s. _ _ . In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings prices have remained without change of importance. Re cife and San Francisco are firm at 151 ; ; Great Luxembourg at 14; East Indian, at 104,1- 105; Great Indian Peninsula, at 102t,-; Great Western bf Canada have receded to 12/ ; and Cape Town and Dock improved to 108.

(Before Mr. Justice Williams.) Joseph Hughes, 23, fishmonger, was found guilty of feloniously forging and uttering a receipt, upon a post-office order, for the sum of £5, with intent to defraud. The learned Judge sentenced him to eight months' im prisonment. THE BEGGING NUISANCE IN KENSINGTON -GARDENS. —Col. Charles A. Arney, of 38, Gloucester-place, Hyde park, attended before Mr. Tyrwhitt as the complainant against a woman, named Elizabeth Thompson, for annoy ing him by begging in Kensington-gardens. Col. Arney said that on the previous evening he was sit ting in Kensington-gardens with some ladies, when the prisoner came up to him, and asked him to give her some thing. At first he did not answer her, but as she kept on telling him a long story, he told her he had nothing to give her, and that she had better be careful of the police. She said she did not care for the police, as she wanted to be locked up, and that he was no gentleman. On a second look at the prisoner, he recognised her as the same woman he had heard abusing a park-constable three or four weeks ago, telling him that he had no right to his medals. He (the colonel) then went to the park-keeper, and he took the prisoner into custody. Park -constable Charles Croft said he had turned the prisoner out of the gardens befcre for begging, as also had his brother officers. Colonel Arney said be should not have appeared against the woman, but he had had to complain to Sir Richard Mayne of the nuisance, and only persons residing near the gardens could have any idea of the nuisance. Prisoner said the colonel was mistaken as to her being there three weeks ago. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should send the prisoner for a month, and would do so every time she was brought be fore him, and every one of her clan. It was intolerable to think ladies could not rest for a moment in such a place without being tormented by beggars. SINGULAR CASE OP OBTAINING GOODS Dv FRAUD.— Alfred West, but who at the station gave the name of George Webber, only 12 years of age, was charged with obtaining a quantity of goods from Mr. Edward Goddard, grocer, &c, of 8, Chapel -street West, by false pretences. Mr. Goddard said the boy came to him on Friday last, and asked him if he would serve Mrs. Williamson, of 39, Curzon-street. He told the prisoner he would if the bills were settled weekly. The prisoner then came back in a few minutes and said Mrs. Williamson consented, and that he was her page. He then took a bottle of cherries and a box of biscuits away. On the following day the prisoner came again, and said he wanted a half pound of cocoa, some bird's eye tobacco, and some cigars. Mr. Tyrwhitt—He did not say the cigars were for Mrs. Williamson, did he ! Prosecutor—Oh, no, he said they were for Colonel Wil liamson. On Monday he came again and said the Major was going to Aldershet, and wanted a bundle of cigars, as he liked those sc much he had had on the previous Saturday. The prisoner then said that Mrs. Williamson was going to give a private party at :her other house in Charles-street during the major's absence, and took with him a glass of preserved fruit, two bottles of British wine, and two lots of biscuits, On Tuesday morning the prisoner came again, and said the major had returned, and wanted a bundle of cigars and another quarter of a pound of bird's-eye. Last night while his (Mr. Goddard's) shopman was out he met Mrs. Williamson's servant, and she told him that the boy did not live there. Thinking as the prisoner had asked that the bill might not be sent till Fri day, that he meant to pay him another visit, he kept a look out, and in the evening while he was serving other customers he came in. As soon as he walked into the shop he (Mr. Goddard) said, " Well, old fellow, how is the Major, is he all right," and the prisoner at once replied, " Oh, he wants one or two dozen more of your cigars." He then told his shopman to get them, but he went round and took the prisoner in the rear. The prisoner then said he had consumed some of the articles, and given some away. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the boy for a week. FOREIGN RAILWAYS MANSLAUGHTER. Catherine Nowlan was indicted for killing and slaying Joseph Munns. Os being placed at the bar, the prisoner was called upon to plead to the indictment, when she said she was guilty of causing the death, but she had no intention of killing Munns. The prisoner was again asked whether she was guilty or not guilty, and she replied, " How can I plead guilty when I had no intention of killing him." The learned Judge said under any circumstances he must be made acquainted with the facts of the case. It would be better for the trial to proceed. The following evidence was then given : Ann Vincent said—l live in the Dover Road, and let the place of business to the deceased. On the day of the occurrence, the prisoner in company with Mrs. Allen, came to her house. The prisoner and the deceased entered the parlour, and she then asked him where he had been all night. He made no reply, and she then said " You don't care whether I have anything to eat or not. You have been out all night spending money when you know very well you only left me 25." The deceased said "You can have what you like," when she said she would have some rump steak. The deceased went out to purchase it, but returned with some beef steak, but the prisoner said she would get it herself. I then went out to serve a cus tomer in the shop, but when I returned I found the pri soner crying very much, and the front of her dress was all over wet. She said " I've done it." Munns was about to leave the room after he had been stabbed when the pri soner said "My dear boy, I think you are dying." She sent fort a doctor, but, eventually, she (pri soner) went with the deceased to the hospital, where he died. Cross-examined—l had previously been using the knife, and left it where the prisoner caught it up. By the Judge—l did not hear any quarrelling while I was in the front shop. The surgeon having described the nature of the wound which caused the death of the man, The Jury returned a verdict of guilty. Sentence was deferred. THIRD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Blackburn.) Mary Ann Harris, 37, married, was indicted for felo• niously attempting to kill her infant child, also with at. tempting to destroy her own life. The prisoner, it will be recollected, threw her child into the Serpentine, and then jumped in herself. On being placed at the bar this morning, she was evi dently in such a state of stolidity as not to know what was going on, end the jary were sworn accordingly to try whe ther the prisoner was capable of understanding the pro ceeding and of taking her trial. Mr. Gibson, the surgeon of Newgate, said he was of opinion that the prisoner was not in a fit condition to take her trial. The learned Judge said if the jury were satisfied, they would find a verdict to that effect, The jury immediately returned a verdict to that effect, and she was taken from the dock. Fanny Worboys, widow, was indicted, for that she was an accessory before the fact to the feloniously using, by one Morgan, a certain instrument with which to procure a miscarriage. From the statement of the learned counsel, the evidence rested on a statement made by the prisoner to Mr. Hunt, a surgeon, of Tachbrook-street, Pimlico, when she was in a dying state, that she had been to a man named Morgan, and at her request he had used an instrument upon her for the purpose of procuring abortion, and that he had done so three times. On the statement being made to Mr. Hunt he at once communicated with the police, and on his telling her that she might probably die before the morning she consented to repeat her statement in the presence of the officer, adding that about 18 months before she had gone to Morgan when he used an instrument and procured abor tion. The prisoner ultimately recovered, although when she made the statement she was excessively weak from loss of blood. Mr. Cooper made a strong appeal to the jury on behalf of the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of guilty. The learned Judge, in passing sentence, said the prisoner had been convicted of a very serious offence. But until lately by a recent statute the woman herself was not re sponsible, but the offence as against others rendered them liable to penal servitude for life. The prisoner, on hearing this announcement, here sank into the arms of the gaoler in a state of insensibility, On her recovery the learned Judge sentenced her to three months' imprisonment. NEW COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant. Williams and Henry Duthoit Balch surrendered to an indictment, charging them with conspiracy to defraud.. The facts of the case, which will occupy the ccurt the whole of the day, were briefly as follows :—The prosecu tors, the Messrs. Barrow, are leather merchants in Ber mondsey, and the prisoner Williams had been an agent of theirs, and Balch his clerk. Williams was to sell upon commission, and return the prosecutors' firm a true ac count of the amounts for which the leather was sold, and also any expenses that might be incurred in the transac tions. In February Williams became a bankrupt, and was heavily in debt to the prosecutors, and upon the transac tions having been gone into, the books showed that the ac counts that had been sent in it had, it was contended, been falsified.

THE FORESTERS' FETE.-ATTEMPT TO PILL POI:MEETS. ....Cornwallis Connor, Joseph Farnell, and William Mon tague, three young men, were charged with attempting to pick pockets in the neighbourhood of the South-Eastern station, London-bridge, yesterday, being no doubt attracted to that locality by the concourse of persons who are generally present at the Crystal Palace on the occasion of the Foresters' fete, and which yesterday exceeded any on record. George Holives, 252 M, said that yesterday he was on duty in plain clothes at the South-Eastern station, and his attention was drawn to Connor and Farnell, and saw the former put his hand in a gentleman's pocket. He then directed two fellow constables to watch them, and he saw them loitering about for a considerable time, during which they were joi by the other prisoner. They were all dodging about Duke-street and the neighbourhood for an hour, and Farnell had the old coat now produced on his arm, a practice frequently resorted to by pickpockets to facilitate their light-fingered operations. Ultimately, he followed them into a public house and took them into custody. Bengough, 82 M, said that he distinctly saw Montague lift up a gentleman's coat, and Burch, 237 M, corroborated this evidence. In reply tc Mr. Burcham, the prisoners stoutly denied the charge, but were unable to produce evidence in their behalf, and the impression of the police-constable, Ben gough was, that they had been previously convicted. The magistrate remanded them until Monday next, in order that some inquiries should be made in reference to their antecedents. A FEDERALIST IN TROUBLE.---A young man who gave the name of James Langham, and stated that he was a na tive of New York, was also charged with attempting to pick pockets at the London-bridge Station yesterday, and he also carried an old coat on his arm. From the evidence of a gentleman who had noticed the prisoner loitering about the station, it appeared that he saw him follow a lady, and as she was about entering an omni- Lus he put his hand into her pocket. He immediately seized his hand and held him until the policeman came up, when he gave him into custody. The prisoner in his defence denied the charge, and said that when the gentleman seized his hand he (prisoner) asked the lady if she had lost anything, and on searching her pocket she replied in the negative. His object in being at the station was to meet his sisters, who had gone to the Crystal Palace. In reply to the magistrate he said that, being a stranger in London, he could not call any witnesses as to character, and that one of his sisters lived in Old. street, but he did not know the number of her house. Mr. Burcham said it was not at all improbable that some of his friends had been at the Crystal Palace, and very likely engaged in the same manner as the prisoner. As he had no doubt that he was in the neighbourhood for the purpose of committing a felony, and that he had actually been detected with his hand in a lady's pocket, he would sentence him to three months' hard labour. Some other cases of a similar character were brought be fore the magistrates, and parties convicted sentenced to different per ioas of imprisonment. THAMES. FURIOUS AND RECKLESS DRIVING.— James Calner, carman, of No. 34, Hardinge-street, Commercial-road East, aged 38, was brought :before Mr. Selfe, charged with being drunk and furiously driving a horse and cart. lie was also charged with running over John Burgess, and severely in juring him, in Broad-street, St. George-in-the-East, at six o'clock yesterday evening. Evidence was given by Charles Jones, a general dealer, George Hart, a police-constable, No. 154 K, and others, that the prisoner was driving a horse and van at a most reckless and furious pace, that he drove against Burgess, who was at his stall,'in Broad-street, and seriously injured him. The prisoner took no notice of the poor fellow he had knocked down and increased the speed of his horse. Many persons followed and the horse was stopped. The prisoner, who was very drunk and quite incapable of managing a horse and cart, laughed at the sufferings of his victim, while the assistant of Mr. Rosa, a surgeon, was at tending to him, and treated the matter with great levity. Mr. Selfe—Where is the wounded man? Hart, 154 K, said that Burgess was in the London Hospital in a very dangerous condition. Mr. Selfe—At what pace were the hrrse and van going when this unfortunate occurrence took place ? Jones—Ten miles an hour at least. Mr. Selfe—l shall remand the prisoner until Saturday next. A COUPLE OF SIMPLETONS.—EIizabeth, aged 23, and Catherine Newman, 22, women of the town, and inhabitants of a vile locality known far and wide as Tiger Bay, St. George-in-the-East, were brought up on remand before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing £23 10s. from the person of Edmund White, a seaman. The prosecutor was paid off from a Russian barque in the West India Dock a few days since, and the same night he was carousing with the prisoners and a shipmate named Ellis. They visited the Earl of EfHingham Theatre, hada good supper and wine, and at a late hour accompanied the prisoners to Tiger Bay. In the course of the night the seamen missed their companions, and White missed XlO 10s. from the pocket of his trousers, which he had placed under his pillow when he went to bed. There were four .E. 5 notes, three sovereigns, and a half sovereign stolen. The prosecutor now said he had since the last examina tion ascertained the number of the notes stolen, and pay ment was stopped at the Bank. Ellis, the prosecutor's shipmate, said he was also robbed of £lO. Mr. Selfe—Last week, when you were here, I expressly warned you to take care of your money, or you would b 3 -ebbed like your shipmate: Ellis said he was not paid off until after he left th e court. He was in company with a well known Limeh ouse crimp, and directly that person left him he missed his money. Mr. Stoddart, riolicitor, who appeared for the prisoners, submitted there was no case whatever against the m . Mr. Selfe—Yes there is some cue against them. They go t o the house, No. 28, Frederick -street, better known as Tiger Bay, a most horrible place, and the women leave the place while the sailors are asleep, and when the man White awakes all his money is gone. The next day the other man, in spite of the warning I gave him, is robbed of £lO. Sailors never will learn wisdom. Mr. Stoddart--Never, sir; the newspapers are continually warning seamen and publishing cases of this description. I don't believe any jury will ever entertain this case. Mr. Selfe—The sailors believe their wine was drugged. 1 0 1 2 4 remand the prisoners for another week. all all all all all 15 1 i i t6i 2 LORD PALMERSTON AT DOVER. To-day the town DOVER, TUESDAY. of Dover is en fete, Lord Palmerston having received one of those popular ovations of which he is so frequently the subject when relieved from the more weighty duties devolving on him as the head of her Ma- I jesty's Government during the parliamentary session. In his lordship's newly-assumed dignity of Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports he has received the flattering compliments of the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of this the most im portant of the five ports. The object of the noble Premier's visit to Dover was to be present at a ceremony arising out of the presentation of his lordship's portrait to the town. Already the Maison Dieu Hall, a spacious building founded by Robert de Burgh in the reign of King John, and recently restored at considerable eutlay, contains the portraits of many eminent men, some of whom have held the post of Warden of the Cinque Ports. Among the most treasured of these is a full len g th one of the late Duke of Wellington, wh o a t t h e time of his death held the honourable office of Lord War den. The presentation took place at 3 o'clock in the Maison Dieu Hall. Lord Palmerstcn, accompanied by Lady Pal merston, the Hon. Mr. Cowper, &c., rode over from Wal mer. On his lordship descending the Castle-hill a salute of 19 guns was fired from the castle batteries, and at the foot of the hill his lordship was met by the Ist A Cinque Ports Artillery Corps, under Captain Wollaston, and the Bth Cinque Ports Rifles, under Captain Churchward, who formed a guard of honour. The following address, engrossed on vellum and bearing the corporate seal, was read by the recorder of the borough, Mr. W. H. Bodkin, the passages congratulating the noble viscount on his undiminished health, and expressing the hope that his services might be long spared to the country, being received with cheers : To the Right Hon. Henry John Temple, Viscount Palmer ston, K.G., G.C.8., D.C.L., Constable of her Majesty's Castle of Dover, Warden, Keeper, and Admiral of her Majesty's Cinq ue Ports, two ancient Towns, and their Members, Master of the Trinity-house, Deptford Strond, &c. We, the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the Cinque Port and borough of Dover, in counsel assembled, beg to congratulate your lordship on the cessation of the more urgent of your lordship's labours by the prorogation of Par liament, and to express our hearty welcome to your lord ship on your return to the Lord Warden's ancient resi• dente within the liberties of the Cinque Ports, hoping that the portion of your lordship's leisure which you may be able to pass amongst us may conduce to the invigoration of your lordship's health and strength. We shall ever re member with grateful feelings the determination of her most gracious Majesty the Queen to preserve and main tain the time-honoured jurisdiction of the Cinque Ports by the nomination of your lordship to the distinguished office of Lord Warden. And we think we may with a laudable pride refer to the evidence of our appreciation of your lordship's willingness to accede to her Majesty's wishes, which was so unequivocally expressed and so universally shared on the occasion of your _lordship's recent inauguration. In commemoration of this and other claims to the respect and gratitude of this corporation and port, we have been anxiou s to perpetrate the memory of our official connection with your lordship by placing your lordship's portrait, painted by one of our distinguished fellow-townsmen, in our ancient hall. And we thankfully acknowledge your lordship's kindness in affording us the requisite facilities for accomplishing this object; and in now honouring with your presence the ceremonial of its presentation to the town. When it is remembered that the portrait will be associated with those of the eminent Duke of Dorset, who held the offic e of Warden in the reigns of Queen Anne 'and of the Kings George, 11. and 111., and of the Great Duke o f Wellington, who was removed from his earthly honours whilst at the Wardens official residence cf Weimer Castle, W e trust that the memorial will be universally recognised as most appropriate. We earnestly hope that in the fulfilment of your lordship's high and responsible duties you may be blessed by Divine Providence with uninterrupted health and energy, and that our sense of your lordship's public services as first minister of the crown and a senator of the realm may by this day's proceeding be recorded by future generations still revering the honoured jurisdiction of the Cinque Ports, Given under our corporate seal in our Council Chamber at Dover, this fifteenth day of August, in the twenty- s i xt h year et her Majesty's reign, in the year of our Lord, 1862. - _ _ Lord PALMERSTON, in reply, said—Mr. Mayor and gen tlemen of the corporation, I can assure you that I feel deeply the honour you are doing me by this address and by the occasion upon which it is presented to me. I was highly flattered when her Majesty was pleased to confer upon me the high and dignified office of 'Warden of the Cinque Ports, an office rendered valuable by the recallee• tion of those who have held it in former times, and, by tte antiquity to which its history extends. But, gent/el:An, it has been a source of great satisfaction to tae to find that the choice which her Majesty was pleased to make of the individual to fill that office has. been sanctioned by your approval, and that now, when I return to you, a year after my first presentation to you, you still evince the kindly feel ing and regard of which you made such satisfactory and pleasing demonstration this time twelvemonth. It will be a source of great pride to me that you have thought fit to place a permanent representation of the fleeting individual who now has the honour of addressing you in this ancient hall amongst the effigies of those distinguished men who have formerly held the office I now have the honour to hold. It must indeed be a source of great gratification to any man living to find the memory of himself placed in connexion with the records of that eminent and distinguished man the Duke of Wellington, of whom it may truly be said there never was in the history of the world any man who conferred greater benefits upon the country which produced him, and I may say, upon the whole face of Europe itself. (Cheers.) To find one's representation placed in conjunction !with the memory of so great and dis tinguished a man must be a source of the greatest pride and gratification to any man living. (Hear, hear.) lam also the more gratified to find that the picture which you now behold is the work of a most distinguished artist of your own town, one of your fellow-townsmen, who has shown by the success with which he has finished this pic ture that he is worthy of the town to which his family and himself belong. Gentlemen, there are occasions upon which ancient institutions are found to conflict with modern im provement, with the improved organisation of the present time, and when that is the case nobody can regret that those 'ancient institutions should either be modified or swept away to make room for the more improved:arrange ments which modern times have suggested. But that is not, I am happy to say, the case with that office which I now have the honour to hold ; and where ancient institu- tions are not found to conflict with modern, improved orga nisation, it is a wise policy to perpetuate; them, and to con nect the tradition of the past and the existence of the pre sent with the anticipation of the future. (Applause.) I trust, therefore, seeing that the office which I hold has already been adapted to the arrangements of modern times by the withdrawal from it of some of those singularities which fitted an ancient period, but which are not so much in harmony with our present arrangements—l trust that the office, being now fitted to the time in which we live, and being connected with the most honourable traditions of all the districts to which it belongs —I trust that office, when I in the course of nature shall cease to hold it, will be conferred on others after me, and that those honourable recollections which belong to the arrangements of the Cirque Ports will be kept alive in the memory of their in habitants, and will servo as an incentive and an emulation to induce them to rival the good deeds of those who have gone before them jor centuries and centuries. (Loud ap• plause.) Mr. Mayor and gentlemen, I beg again to return you my most sincere thanks, and to assure you I am deeply sensible of the honour you have now conferred on me. (Loud cheers.) Occasion was taken of his lordship's presence in Dover to open a new bridge connecting the present iron bridge (the Wellington) with Strond-street. His lordship, after passing over the bridge, and cracking a bottle of wine in the centre, formally declared it opened. BANQUET AT THE LORD WARDEN HOTEL. Lord Palmerston was subsequently entertained at a ban" quet given by the Mayor of Dover at the Lord Wa rden Hotel. In responding to the toast of his health, Lord PALMEItSTON said—l beg you to a ccept my most unfeigned and heartfelt thanks for the kind and feeling ' manner in whi c h y ou h ave b een Pleas, ed ' Mr. Mayor, to gentlemen, have ' I propose, and the hearty m a nner in whi have been pleased to respond to the toa st. successful in my public career , i t has been owing entirely to the assistance of my co ll ea gues and officers.

Although I see around this board those who are probably indebted to the healthy air of this district, and one who was a volunteer in the time of Mr. Pitt, and who, I doubt not, would be equally ready to join the volunteers of the present day if his services were on'y requi re d, th e object of England is peace; but we wish to be on a f oo ti ng neighbours. ( of go o d f ee li ng an d i n t ercour se with our (Applause.) It has been truly said that the faults of 'men are known only at a distance, but their good feelings are never known until we have an oppor tunity of judging and appreciating them. (Hear.) I look upon the great Exhibition as one of the means of securing that international communication so essential to our na tional prosperity, and I look upon Dover as having been one of the great chariot wheels which have conveyed the visitors to the metropolis. They would return with pre judice destroyed, and anxious to cement the solid peace which it is my trust may continue as long as human peace and happiness may endure. . ___ The toast of " Her Majesty's Ministers " again brought Lord Palmerston to his feet. He returned thanks for him self and his colleagues. Men Who were able to do anything were best pleased when they had a great deal to do; and although in the past session they had not passed any law s of great pretensions, there had been many measures o ,f C a st utility and usefulness. (Rear.) In the hope s h e ri. that these had met the approval of the country, "`" The noble lord having proposed dered his thanks. (Applause.) and also 4 ' The Ladies,' to V " lnler.

Why is friendship like glass ?—Because the great chances are that it will be broken. Does a tranapert of joy ever get a ticket of leave ? A " LIGHT" SUBJECT TOR A GRIEVANGE I— " Why should paymasters be grieved to:the heart," asks the Army and Navy Oazette," because they are not permitted to put feathers in their cocked hats r' This is a question not at all difficult to answer. Paymasters are undoubtedly birds of a feather, and yet Government deprives them of the feather. The question of a feather can't be styled a weighty subject for a grievance; but if we were a paymaster, and had to amalgamate with a flock of other paymasters, we should certainly stick for the feather, especially if we had a wife and were henpecked ! rHE POTATO DISEASE.---From all accounts the disease seems again to have got an eye to business, for it has already made a dead set at the potato, and the farmers look upon their crops, sad spectators.

Of course, he proceeded to examine his hands with much trepidation, but was greatly relieved to find his " mauves" were unimpeachable. This slang is now common throughout the Exhibition, and we think it right to warn gentlemen of nervous temperament, as the result of this abrupt question might be too fearful to contemplate.

DEATHS THROUGH CRINOLINE. — When Fashion enters the door, Common Sense flies too generally out of the window. So of course Punch cannot wonder that you ladies will wear crinoline, in spite of all the danger and the nuisance of your doing so. But some of you do sometimes heed a medical opinion, when other warnings fail to penetrate yo ur brainpans ; and possibly a few of you may be deterred from wearing crinoline by thinking of the caution Dr. Lankes ter puts forth. You ladies are not given much to reedteg of the newspapers, yet possibly the plan which Dr. La n ke ould ster sugge sts, that every ac c id en t through crin soolimneewa should t on to be mentioned by the p ress , m i g ht help h frighten you and brin g y ou t o your sen ses.
