ASP OA A THE EPSOM SETTLING. Before the;enotes - reachth; reader, the Day of Reckoning will be over—accounts will be squared, and the gains and losses estimated. The settling may, after all, be pronounced satisfactory, despite the hard hit which the ring has sustained by the defalcations of the two persons referred to by the reporter. One of these individuals was once supposed to be as rich as an old-fashioned Nabob, but his mines, it would seem, while at the bottom of the sea, and his bank, has proved to be a bank of delusion. The ring was credulous, however, and trusted him de spite his tardiness in meeting his engagements, and they believed that his " backwardness in coming forward" was merely attributable to an eccentricity of disposition. He had several bad bets on the Derby, and therefore discreetly abandoned the haunts and the society of sporting men. Mr. NV— has long had a reputation for the uncompromising hostility which he has evinced against the Derby fa vourites, and did little for himself when he so "hotly" opposed Dervish some years ago. His absence has made a serious difference to many persons who had deemed themselves winners. Take the settling all in all, however, it has been satisfactory enough, as the success of Musjid has enabled many gentlemen to "part" who had previously neither the means nor the inclination. _ _ The present week is overstocked with racing, and north and south country turfites will be very busily engaged. The Chelmsford gathering, which is managed by a local committee, who are r.s well acquainted with the rules and practice of racing as the Talking Fish is with the etiquette of a ball room ; still, as even the most disagreeable and unmentionable person must be allowed his due, it is only fair to state that the Chelmsford autho rities exerted themselves to the utmost to make their meeting attractive. They do not lack the will, but they require the knowledge. The programme does not promise a satiety of sport, but it presents a pros pect of an enjoyable quantity of racing. Either Blackmail or the Courier should win the Welter Cup. The Chelmsford Handicap will, perhaps, be briskly speculated upon at the post, but it has not yet received attention, even from a Bride-lane speculator. Mr. Mellish's two, Tame Deer and Minster, are the most attractive names. _ _ Mr. Meiry's. representative—either Madrid or Lady Falconer—will have its number put up for the Great Baddow Stakes. Surely Indulgence ought to be good enough to win the County Members' Plate. The list of sport for Beverley is thorough " York shire." Northern horses are engaged in the different stakes, Northern jockeys will ride them, and Northern men will back them. The Bishop Burton Stakes will bring out several " dark" youngsters, of whose racing merit I have no know ledge. Griffin may win the Beverley Cup, and Cox wold the Grimston Plate. Restes will carry off the Produce Stakes if her owner deems it advis able to send her or Ida. The other events may be passed over without comment. All people must wish prosperity to Mr. IV. Hib burd's undertaking at Hungerford, where he has succeeded in establishing a meeting of not only local importance, but of interest to the racing community. The gathering will take place on Thursday and Friday ; and, judging from the numerical strength of the entries, a most successful gathering will be celebrated. A FRESH MAN. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH - STREET. CREATING A DISTURBANCE' IN ST. JAMES'S WORK HOUSE—A SUSPICIOUS VISIT.—Wm. Giles, an inmate of the above workhouse, was charged with creating a disturb ance on the overnight, as follows : Elizabeth Dickinson, an inmate, said at a rather late hour on the previous night the inmates of the females' depart lent were much alarmed by hearing three or four distinct loud knocks at the door of the room, one of the females being so much frightened that she fainted. She requested the females to see who was at the door, but none of them would do so ; at length going to the door herself she found the prisoner on the landing. Mr. Charles Leslie, master of St. James's workhouse, said it was not the first time the prisoner had been found in a similar part of the establishment. The prisoner said he did not mean any harm. There were plenty of women there, and it was altogether an in advertence on his part. Mr. Leslie said the prisoner had been out, and must have crossed the women's yard to get to the place where he was found. Mr. Bingham said the poor could not be treated in a proper manner if such proceedings were allowed, and he thought the burthens of the ratepayers would probably be soon increased if a young man like the prisoner was allowed to go to the females' department. The prisoner, who certainly from his appearance looked more like a decent tradesman, was committed for ten days. John Mahomed, an Asiatic beggar, who has given great trouble to tho police on many occasions, was charged with throwing a little boy under a cab wheel, and endangering his life thereby. ThQ case being clearly proved, he was fined 10s. or ten days. THIS DAYS MARKETS. HAY MARKETS.

We are requested to insert the following letter, which has been addressed to the editor of the Globe:— 44 SIR,—I have observed in your paper of the 25th of April last that your Paris correspondent has renewed his attacks upon me, in such a manner as even to surpass the calumnies of the French police. " I should have thought that a minister of religion might have found some more legitimate employment for his pen, and have possessed more Christian feeling and respect for truth than to have insulted an exiled Prince. That he should persist in repeating his perverse mis-statements is derogating to his profession, and cowardly in the support given to a degraded police, and seemingly in favour of the objects of the existing war. !' I shall content myself with stating that neither ho nor his employers (be they whom they may) can make me of any other nation or rank than it has pleased God to make me. lam ready to testify that lam all I represent myself to be in any English court of law, where my genealogy can be shown and my personal identity fully established. "Despite my political enemies, my birth, parentage, and antecedents can be proved beyond a doubt. "I hold all the documents necessary to establish my legi timate and hereditary right to the dukedoms of Mantua, Guastalla, and Castiglione, &c. ; whilst in my quality of Prince I have been recognised by almost all the Courts of Europe. I have never been in Berlin, but as regards Vienna and Warsaw, the documents I have but recently received, both from the Austrian and Russian Governments, suffice to prove the calumny of your correspondent. " Since you, Sir, are responsible for the articles which appear in your journal, I claim a right to the insertion of this letter, in answer to your anonymous correspondent. Accept, Sir, the assurance of my high consideration, 44 ALEXANDRE, Prince of Gonzago, Duke of Mantua. "London, May 31, 1859." LIVERPOOL, Monday.—The ship Shooting Star, from Melbourne for this port, passed Queenstown on the afternoon of the 4th inst. She sailed from Melbourne on the 28th of February, and has on board 16,788 ounces of gold on freight. CHIPPENHAM.—One of the Most terrific thunder storms with which this town has been visited for upwards of 50 years took place this (Sunday) afternoon. For the space of nearly two hours the flashes of lightning were of a fearful description, and the extraordinary claps of thunder excited the terror of even the most stout hearted. At about three o'clock a heavy hail storm descended, and many of the stones were as large as a common hazel nut. The rain also fell in torrents, and the Bath and Bristol roads were rendered in some places almost impassable, Many of the fields and houses near the banks of the Avon were entirely flooded. There can be no doubt that considerable damage has been done in some parts of the country. EXCISE LICENSES TO THEATRES.—The Lords of the Treasury have, in conformity with a memorial presented to them, signed by the lessees of the London theatres, issued directions to the Commissioners of Inland Revenue tQ grant licenses for the sale of wines, spirits, &c., to the managers of the London theatres who choose to apply for them. The memorial was signed by the proprietors and lessees of the Haymarket, Adelphi, Olympic, Sadler's Wells, Surrey, Ast ley's, Victoria, Standard, Pavilion, Marylebone, and City of London Theatres, and prayed that the right granted under ttie act sth and 6th William IV., cap. 69 (suspended for a period of nearly twenty-three years) might be restored. The reasons urged for this were that there were now a large number of theatres and saloons holding the Lord Chamber lain's license for selling wines, under their tavern limns?, while prohi bited the managers of all the reg u l ar th e atres were from doing so. The reply to the memorial is signed by Mr. G. A. Hamilton, one of the secretaries to the Trea sury, and dated the 30th of May, 1859. It states that the Lords (Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasuryohaving had the memorial of the proprietors of metropolitan theatres praying that they may be able to obtain retail licenses for the sale of spirits, &e., under co ns ideration, had authorised the Commissionereof Inland Revenue to issue l icenses of this nature upon piper application being made to them in conformity With the regulations of their department. THE FRENCH NAVY. MARSEILLES, June 5.-011 Friday the steamers • L „ ded to tow the three floatin..• 'ha +teries now in . off, and 6 v.._ "RS in L.-- . further Toulon were 4. 1„,. PrOgres§ 1"" tl6- t . d made in the formation of LLL. ine mainly, it is stated, to force an entrance to the Po. They have now got their full complement of guns on board, which can be all fought on a broalTside. To any one who has recently visited Woolwich the arsenal at•Toulon will not inspire serious appre hensions in its present condition. All the material and arrangements for naval construction have been transferred to Moirillon, on the other side of the harbour, where there are five covered building slips, of no very great length, and the means, it is stated, for building ten other ships of the line, but which I . 'was not fortunate enough to see. There are on the stocks there two liners whose crews are already. formed and may be seen in the streets. The 'first is the Massena, of 100 guns and, 800-horse power, and of which 22-24ths are com pleted. The Second is a sister ship, Castiglione, of which 18-24ths are completed. Besides the liners, there are tw0.50-gun frigates—Gloire and Invin cible, rapidly advancing to completion, which are called frigates blindecs, from having their sides covered with iron plates. At Mourillon, it will be remembered, occurred in 1840 that disastrous fire which consumed the stores of shipbuilding timber, valued at upwards of £BOO,OOO. To-day the tim ber is stored in sheds about 1,500 feet long, and every precaution is taken to prevent the recurrence of a like disaster. The steam sawmills have not that development and activity which may be wit nessed at Portsmouth and other English naval yards. • • • In a visit: to the Arsenal, the first object of curiosity was, the number of guns in store., . There were between 300 and 400 carronades 'of various calibres, a large proportion being 24-pounders and even smaller, which are not likely to be ever mounted, and had far better be sold for oldmetal; 24-pounder brass howitzers and long 2-pounder brass guns, which we should consider no better than popguns, were stacked along the path, they also may be eliminated from the effective of artillery re serves, for their model is most antiquated. There then remained the iron guns, principally 30 and 50 pounders, with a fair sprinkling of Paixhan shell guns, having a calibre of 22 centimetres. If there were no other than these in the arsenal, none . stowed away under lock and key in the structure's along the docks, I doubt if there were sufficient to arm all the ships laid up in ordinary , in the harbour. This may be an advantage, provided no sudden emergency arises, and it be determined to arm all the ships with rifled guns, as there then would be comparatively only a few old models in stock. The 50-pounder is the nearest approach the French navy has to that splendid weapon used in the English service—the 68-pounder solid shot gun. The lengths of both are about equal. The French gun throws a shot weighing 55. English pounds, and the guns I saw were stamped with their weights, which were .on an average 4,766 kilos., with a range of 8 kilos. more or less. The French 50-pounder would, therefore, weigh 90 cwt.-5 cwt. less than the English gun with which I have compared it—and throw a shot weighing 13 lb. less, if the figures are to be relied upon •, but I confess the gun does not look as if it weighed 90 cwt. Among these guns was a rifled 30-pounder, which seems to have been bored as an experiment with three shallow straight grooves ; for under a shed, where stood Russian guns taken at Botnarsund were five rifled 30-pounders on which men were fitting the' hammers and lo cks. They were bored with three grooves, about two inches wide, and an eighth of an inch deep, which made about a quarter turn from the breech to the muzzle, with an uniform twist, as far as could be judged. These would ap pear to be the model adopted. They are stated to be rifled at Vincennes, where 30 can be turned out a day, which one may be permitted to doubt when oily five are visible, in spite of the urgent requests made daily . for the despatch of more by railway. If the shot lying at the railway station are intended for these guns, the feathers (aillettes) are much deeper than the grooves. The projectile is cylindro conical, that is to say, it is composed of a cylinder apparently one and a half calibre in length, which, beyond this length, terminates in a cone about one calibre from the base to the summit. This, I pre sume, would make the new projectile weigh about double the ordinary spherical shot for the same cali bre, which would agree with what is stated, viz., that a French rifled 30-pounder gun throws a 601 b. shot—in English measures it would weigh 661 b. The range I was informed by an artillery officer was 8,000 metres, bon tir, and 10,000 metresa tout voice, which is equivalent to a range of 8,749 yards (five miles all but 51 yards), at which aim can be taken, and accuracy attained; and 10,936 yards (six miles 376 yards) extreme elevation. If the figures given are correct—the French rifled 30-pounder will be lighter than our 68-pounder, will throw a shot within 21b. as heavy, and will have a much greater range, It has, however, to be determined by actual practice whether in naval warfare such extreme distances could be maintained, and if they could not, whether the crashing and smashing effects of spherical 68-pound shots would not be more destruc tive to timbers and even masonry than the clean perforation made by a cylindro-conical shot. Every one is familiar with the experiment of a pistol-shot making a clean hole through a pane of Klass which would be shivered to fragments by a pebble thrown from the hand of a child. The feathers are placed about midway on the exterior surface of the cylin. drical part of the projectile. By the end of July, or early in August, the dif ferent navy yards will have completed 120 flat bottomed gunboats, small iodel, having fitted each with a 5-horse power steam-engine and with one of the rifled four-pounders. They are intended to act on the Adda, the Mincio, and the Adige. By the same period will be completed 40 steam transports, capable of conveying 1,000 men each, besides the crew and baggage. Considering how easily France can now 'transport her troops, that she has 20 paddle steam frigates which she employs for that purpose, one is curious to learn where it is contem plated to land 40,000 men at once ? Three field batteries embarked yesterday from Marseilles. THE BATTLE OF _MAGENTA. The Emperor's despatch from Magenta, dated at 4.15 last evening, represents the loss of the Austrians as greater by 5,000 men than was announced in the first despatch. It would now appear that the Aus trians lost in killed and wounded (hors de combat) 20,000 men, and 7,000 prisoners "at least." Though so well acquainted with the loss of the enemy, the French, as usual, know their own not so. certainly —" about 3,000 men." In the first despatch it was stated to .be " about 2,000." What it will be found when the detailed official accounts come in I cannot say. The Emperor states that the debouches, or issues, " on passing by the bridges thrown across at Turbigo," were narrow,and that the Austrians offered the greatest resistance. Under such circumstances, 20,000 Austrians killed and wounded to 3,000 French seems a disproportion. The spoils, too, figure poorly by the side of such enormous loss : only three guns and two standards captured by the French ! At Marengo, of which M. Thiers says, " General. Bonaparte staked his whole fortune on that day,' the Austrian loss was 8,000 killed and wounded,. and 4,000 prisoners; the French, 6,000, and 1,000 prisoners. According to other accounts, 7,000 killed and'wounded on each side. But eight standards and 20 pieces of cannon were taken by the French ; while the other results were the com plete reconquest of Piedmont and of the Milanese, the cession of 12 fortresses with 1,500 pieces of can non, and the advance of the French to the Mincio. At the great battle of Austerlitz, the battle of the Emperors, when three were on the field, the Austrians lost 15,000 killed, wounded, and drowned, 20,000 prisoners, 180 guns ; the French, accor din g to M. Thiers, " about 7,000." The conditions im posed by. Napoleon were—the Venetian States to c omplete the kingdom of Ital y , the T duchies yrol and Austrian Suabia to agg randise Bavaria, the of Baden and Wurtemburg ; family alliances with the German houses, 100,000,000 in money, in addi tion to the loss of territory ; and the rupture of the third condition was the immediate consequence. Moreover, there were captured in the field 40 Aus trian standards, those of the Imperial Guard of Russia, and among the prisoners were 20 general officers. The total loss of the whole allied troops engacred at Waterloo was 22,378 killed, wounded, and missing.. We do not yet know the exact numbers actually engaged at Magenta, but the carnage was dreadful, an d the fact of the Austrians having saved their artillery and their standards, with such a loss, shows how desperately they fought. MacMahon being the only general officer spoken of in the Imperial despatch, leads me" to infer that to that gallant Irishman the chief merit of the victory is to be ascribed. The Imperial Guard, too, having alone supported the shock of the enemy for two hours, must have done wonders. There is little doubt that MacMahon will now receive the baton of Field- Marshal, which was said to be retarded on account of his having opposed the passing of the famous Public Surety Bill after the attentat of the 14th January. I hear that the telegraphic despatches from Italy for the Paris papers were stopped for some time to-day, no doubt to prevent incorrect reports of the battle and losses from circulating. Reports do circulate, however, of severer losses than those mentioned. From the loss of the Austrians we may form some notion of that of the French , and it is certain, moreover , that victories,gained at I such a price cost very' dear.—Letter from, Paris.

The LORD CHANCELLOR having read her Majesty's most gracioni Speech on opening the session of Parliament, which will be found in another, part of The Sun, . . Earl POWIS, who wore a rich military uniform, rose for the purpose of moving an address to her Majesty in answer to her most gracious speech said, the short time that had elaised since they last met would relieve him from alluding to Many of the legal and social measures which had been referred to in a former speech, some of which had become the law of the land. On the present occasion it would be out of place if he were to dwell upon the didsolution and the effect it had had on the state of parties, especially as that had arisen in the other house, and it would be an infringement of the rights and privileges of that branch of the Legislature.. (Hear, hear.) In her most gracious Speech her Majesty had referred to several financial measures, and to the question of .Parlia mentary Reform, and also to the advisability of post poning all consideration of the Reform siestion until the commencement of the next session. He did not think it competent for Parliament to grapple with that question in the month 'of July, but that would be a question to be decided by their lordships. The state of India he should also pass over, because it was now progressing in the most satisfactory manner, and her Majesty had signified het approval of the efforts made to restore tran quillity by personally conferring an important mark of her favour upon Sir John Lawrence. (Hear, hear.) The aspect of continental affairs was such that he could not pass it over, especially as France, Sardinia, and Austria had entered- on the horrors of war on the fertile plains of Lombardy. Her Majesty had informed them that papers would be laid before their lordships, which would prove how anxious she had been to preserve the blessings of peace, and the expression of Royal regret that these efforts had entirely failed ; but it was conselatoi-Y to find that the position .England would take in such an unfortunate state of affairs would be one of strict and impartial neutrality. (Hear.) As England was fi cc from the religious feelings of the Church of Rome, it was to be hoped that this country i would be enabled to devote some portion: 'of tithe to the advancement of measures of social progress. (Hear, hear.) It. was gratifying to find that the aspect of commercial affairs was cheering, and 'it was most devoutly to be hoped that that state of things would be continued, for nothing was So fatal to all commercial. prosperity as war. The accession of anew King to the Neapolitan Throne had induced her Majesty to resume .diplomatic relations with that coun try ; and although the matters relating to ' Central America had not been finally settled, ho trusted that they would soon meet with . a satisfactory solution. He now arrived at the subject of the national de fences, and the Government were much to • be commended for the active steps they had taken to strengthen the fleet, for without such a wise and salutary step our neutrality in foreign affairs would be little respected, and this brought to his re collection a quotation from one of Sheridan's plays, in which he made one of his characters say " John we WillaoTee in pla teens." Her Majesty's Government had pro ferr'ed to afford every possible assistance to volunteer corps, and to supply them with ammunition for practice. (Hear.) He could net conclude without expressing his satisfaction at the tem perate manner in which foreign affairs had been discussed last session, mid on resuming bis seat he begged to move that a dutiful address be presented to her Majesty. The Address was then read by clerk at the table, and was merely an echo of the Speech. Lord LIITORD, in seconding the motion, said he was releaved from detaining their lordships at any length by the variety of topics alluded to by the noble earl who had just sat down. The state of Ireland was satisfactory, and but for the presence of his noble friend, who at present filled the office of Lord-Lieutenant (the Earl of Eglinton) he should have entered at some length into the question, but he could not refrain from saying that the 'noble earl had won the respect of all sects and classes by his fair . and equal dealing. (Hear, hear.) In her Royal Speech, her Majesty said,' " Considering the present state of Europe I have deemed it necessary to the security of my dominions, and the honour of my crown, to increase my naval forces to an amount exceeding that to which has been sanctioned by Parliament, he did not for an instant imagine that any difference of -feeling existed with respect to keeping the navy in the , most efficient state.' !He regretted that it was thought desirable to postpone the question of amending the state of the re presentation of the people till next sessisn of Parliament, as he believed that that question, above all others, required to be settled at the earliest possible moment. The measure introduced .last session by her Majesty's Government h e regretted had. not received the approval of Parliament —(hear)—and this 'be much regretted, as he thought I, co ntained many provisions which would have been feline exceedingly beneficial and useful to the com munity at large. (Hear, hear.) The noble lord then proceeded to condemn the opinions of Mr. h Bright on the question. of Reform, and said e was to o r b d l s e hi p e , a s r h l n u e s e a ,r ands m a wi grea th tl a Y n absolute majority t m o ajo se ri e ty united band of followers in the o th e r house, numberingthiriatthtehier more than 300.

I.oduction a a bill to abolish church rate's: THE QUEEN'S SPEECA, The Royal ,Speech having been read, r r Mr. A. EGEitTON rose to move that humble address be presented to hCr Majesty in reply to the Royal Speech. He strongly approTed of the sentiments in the, address of her Majesty, iia.rtieu;,arly in reference to, th e war, • a nd he trusted that the feeling' in favour of neutrality on the part of this country in respect J'o the pending hostilities would continue to influence the public mmd. He believed that such a course would prove the .most beneficial that could be adopted under existing circumstances. (Hear, hear.) . He trusted that Russia would adhere to neutTality also, and that the' fears entertained by certain politicians would prove unfounded. (Hear, hear. He felt bound to express his approval of the conduct of Government in the present critical pos i t i on in which they we r e placed by events that - had taken place on the Continent. (Hear, hear.) With regard to domestic affairs he considered that the Government acted wisely in, postponing the question of Reform fel: the present, as the session would not, from its probable chiration, afford an opportunity of passing a satisfactory measure ores matter of such importance. He hoped that, ultimately, the sub ject would be satisfactorily arranged, and that in any legis lation fora further extension of the franchht the working classes would form an element. (Hear, hear.) He was firmly convinced that the present Government would carry out the affairs of the country with advantaeager, , in respect both to foreign and domestid policy. (H hear, and Oh, oh.) The hon. member concluded by reading the address to her Majesty, in reply to her most gracious speech. • Sir J. ELPHINSTONE secon ded the mot ion. He believed that her Majesty's Government would carry out the administration of public;affairs with efficiency ; and he believed that the attitude of neutrality assumdedietabtedy_this country at the present time was one that was by wisdom. (Hear, hear.) inHereffeerltenbeoeunted ttohedeprec navalate a any thing like parsimony, ment of the country, which he e contendeeffideiesueoyuldrmanbade placed in a state of the most_ perfect that whatever might be the cost of carrying out object, it would be found eventually to be the Most economical. (Hear, hear.) He concurred fully in what had fallen from the bon...mover of the Address, and he thought that it would be injudicious to attempt to deal with the question of reform during the present session. The Marquis of HARTINGTON said he rose to move an amendment to the Address, and • contended that he 'was sustained by precedent in the course he nestled: Jae wished whe ther the r th presente amendment,Govern ment enjoyed u t hatt rais e it e rtca th eoiwtn confidence f s p i rit,olt h ee quest ion dnbeeas.ovotea cf a s at the arrived :;icidor resting hwi-t I t w a i n l ere e d m th a in d e v c a e o r un s p e r t 7to p : anW± G r Govern m ent, c e : Th e n x s tt ti , rt:'poofsedthe a in ove th rillne em. nt H s e in d e i e d th n e o ir t t co ha ns t ia c e o r nfi th d : r he w an as tee n.o ede i n accession to office justified their retention of power, and the Reform Bill which they intro duced failed to satisfy public feeling, had the effect of displeasing isome 'members of Go vernment itself.' The resolatlon of the noble lord, the member, for London, having been a ffi rm e d b y the house, r 1 . 1. e. thought that such being the case it was not constitutional far the Government to. - continue at the hea:_l. of affairs. ' (Hear, hear, and No, no.) He was not actuated by any fitztious spirit ; but he contended that the Government should not have accepted tlyi decision of the house as a vote' of censure. It was neither wise nor patriotic on their 'tart to have dissolve 4 Parliament at a time whert the state of foreign affairs rendered such a proceedim; More perilous. With regard ,to the Reform Bill introduced by Government, it was not a mea sure that secured Ithe - tiympathy and approval of the Con servative party. (Oh, oh.) He repeated that statement, and in support of it he drew attention to the fact that severa l Conservative members repudiated the the measure on the platforni, or at all events did not make it the basis of their appeals to their constituencies. He denied that, in making the present motion, there was any party motive ; and 'he would observe, with reference to party, that the great Liberal party were rick so divided among themselves as was supposed, but that they were ready to co-operate in any course of policy that was calcu lated, in their opinion, to promote the nit eiests of the country.
