This day has been especially devoted to the enter tainment of the Queen of England by the Emperor an d Empress of the French, and I have now to send / (111 an account of the various incidents connected 'With it. The moment (eight o'clock) that the Royal Stand ard of England was seen floating on board her Ma nesty-e s yacht, there was poured forth from the Fort irr be-ilottunet a salute of heavy guns, which was echoed t hi c a ls il the war ships of France, and the forts in b ,,uaY, by a discharge of their artillery. Many s - 1 -3e lls Were therefore under the erroneous impres fell that the Queen, as I stated in my t e , tte r of yesterday, was about to confer ir. bne unexpected honour of a visit to the city of C le l l i °l4 g. The character of the Queen and herear y d i ibit s are well known to the people here, and hepce e thees 7 sipposed that, having given a promise to th Peror , n; she would land at Cherbourg, she was on at a P ,r u t of fulfilling it, by passing through the city ti e - "rile when she might be least liable to interrup •Cn• All these reasons and fancies proved to be (Nally fallacious. „_ The rfilT•ell as People who gathered around the Prefecture, those who had their eyes fixed upon the i s n it2 rY Port, in tl:e hope of seeing the Emperor la s n - fi e , forth from the one place or the Queen p o i n ":ng on the other, were alike doomed to chsapd perieut for many hours. Complete quiet an royalr-et re Pose Possessed both places from the first . salute of the morning. ' Tas f i n iL, not until half-past eleven o'clock that aline the """Y was stationed between the Prefecture fi and t movouterrnost gate of the Military Fort. This r l s did event excited universal attention, and then On_ y ' Queen, be come to be considered as certain that the two was about to land. At twenty minutes_ to . t ure 're ! s he 'Emperor and Empress left the Prefec (1 , 6 ,4 ,tueir only guards being a few of the Bens Tic ze c r iding in front, and a half troop of Hussars. earri a e ' -r-iniperor and Empress rode alone in the same had ~ • rheuniform he Emperor was in the same te o , l3 °rn the preceding day, whilst Tier Majesty's . colo ur dress was simple and more subdued thein i nau r an that in which she had appeared at 1 excellentan of the railway.

The Emperor rode " hi ~,. a uireet from the one place to the other, and Env7esesty, barge being there waiting, he and the Yacht, Lefillered it, were rowed over to the Royal veYed e rn ;,`, l l B - few moments afterwards were con was Poured jes's At tw e r„ `ue Yacht to the shore.

There was first one great roar b road 81d 4 of war pouring out their then came the rattling of 600 cannon of 19 largest calibre from the forts around. It Wm /grange to note the effect a suol an jilt- The indipendente of Turin contradicts the rumour of the probability of a reconciliation between the King of Naples and the Western Powers. A letter from Milan, in the Indipendente of Turin, states that General Gyulay, who was shortly to be invested with the supreme military command of Lombardy and Venice, has just been wounded by a bullet at the manoeuvres of the camp of Somma. Another letter in the Vessilo della Liberia goes the length of saying that the general has died of his wound. It is not stated whether the occurrence is attribueed to accident or crime.

ISSUES or TIIE JEW QUESTION.—The Saturday Review, speaking of Baron Roth , chitd's admission to the H ol m of Commotts, says, that henceforth " all religious and , o,dal disqualification for the Legislature must cease," and even clergymen ba admissible. It proceeds :—"Anothr r cor sequence will follow from Baron Rothschild's presence in the Legislature. Another, and perhaps the last link, between Church and State is loosened, if not sever Pd." The European and Australian steamer Cambria, conveying the Australian mail from Alexandria, is expected to. day, and the Wye will take the overland portion of the mail to Mamillo. 1. The establishment of such a system of consular educa tion and promotion as may tend to prevent the employment of any but British subjects as consuls, vice-consuls, or inter preters, in the portion of the world comprising Northern Africa, Eastern Europe, and the Levant. 2. The prohibition of all consuls to engage in trade, or to accept commercial agencies (except is such cases as the Foreign Office may specially determine to be advantageous to the public interest, with a view to the opening or develop ing of any new trade), and the appointment of respectable persons, already engaged in commerce, as British consular agents, in places where the presence of a salaried British official is not required. 3. Tne diminution of the present number of vice-consuls in Europe, and the gradual abolition of their licence to trade. 4. such an organisation of the consular service as may divide its members into separate classes, receiving salaries adequate to their position, and without any further reduc tion than that of the income tax; any augmentation for special service or peculiar circumstances to be made in the way of a special allowance. 5. The appropriation of all fees, except in the cases of unpaid consuls, to the: public account, the expenses of the office being regulated and defrayed by the Government. The committee are of opinion that the consular instruc tions might be revised with advantage, and quit the pub lication, periodically, of the commercial returns from our consuls, in an improved form, might be of considerable benefit to the public. The committee recommend that the classification of con solar officers referred to in their report, together with the scale of salaries decided upon by the Government, should be laid before Parliament. The committee say they are unwilling to separate with out expressing their gratification at the testimony borne to the worth and character of:the gentlemen now on the con sular establishment of this country: The Earl and Countess Granville left town on Thursday last for Germany, and intend to be absent from this country several weeks. The Earl and Countess of Sandwich have been entertaining, during the week; a distinguished circle of friends at their family residence in Huntingdonshire. The Countess (Dowager) of Winchilsea and her youthful family have arrived at Dane Court, Mr. E. R. Rice's seat, in Kent, from Brighton. Count d'Einsiedel (Grand Equerry to the King of Saxony) and M. Montz Hartmann have left the Brun wick Hotel, S. Jatnes':, fur Pais, c; route for Saxot.y. Lord and Lady Muncaster have arrived at their seat in Yorkshire, from visiting the Marquis and Mar chioness of Westminster, at Eaton Hall, Cheshire. The Dowager Lady Truro is expected to return from Homburg at the end of the ensuing week. Lady Eleanor Balfour and a select circle have assembled on a visit to the Right Hon. 11. A. Herbert, M.P., and Mrs. Herbert, at Muckross Abbey, their seat in Ireland. Lord Henry Bentinck has left Claridge's Hotel for Linc3ln. Sir James Prior and Lady Prior have arrived at the Queen's Hotel, Upper Norwood. Major-Gen. Cbarretie and Mrs. Charreti6 have arrived at the same establishment. WtxDson, Friday.—The birthday 'of his Royal Highness Prince Alfred, who has completed his 14th year, was celebrated here with the customary honours paid to the members of the royal family. The bells of the Chapel Royal, of St. George and St. John's Church rang merry peals during the day, and at noon a royal salute was fired by the Queen's bombardier iu the Long-walk; royal salutes were also fired from Fort Belvidere and from the Royal Adelaide frigate at Virginia Water. THE NEW POLICE REGULATIONS IN EGYPT.—A copy of the new police regulations of the Government of Egypt has just been published. They gave rise to a petition to the Qiesn from Euglkli subjects sojourning at or near Cairo. These persens desire to continue under the same jurisdiction as heretofore, and they protest against being placed under that of the local government, in defiance of their lawful right, and to their hurt. The Earl of Maltnes bury has refused to sanction the promulgation or en forcement of the police regulations in so far as British sub jects are concerned. The principal grievances alleged were the regulations about passports, and the rendering of her Majesty's subjects liable to domiciliary visits. Chelsea New Bridge is to be open free to foot passengers for the first time to-morrow the Bth inst. A LADY FINED FOR WEARING CRINOLINE.—The Independance Beige states that a young lady, living in Hanover, has been sentenced by a court of that town to pay a fine of two francs, "for having worn a dress which, occu pying the whole breadth of the pavement, is an obstruction to the public way."

Fad. THE LATE . FATAL EXPLOSION IX THE STMINSTER-ROAD. The adjeurnei inquest on the bodies of Sarah Ann Williams an Carol. 'ne Bridges, who were killed by the ex ploson of fireworks which took place at No. 4, Elizabeth place, in the Westini. 9 ster-road, on the 12th of last month, took place yesterdayrr,` Guy's Hospital, before Mr. Sergeant Payne, coroner for the City of London and the, borough of Southwark. The proceedings excited a gootel deal of interest, and the rcom was crowded during the Inquiry. Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, attended to watch the case on behalf of Mr. Bennett, the occupier ,Of the premises at which the first explosion took place. Edward Tucker, Pleasant-row, East-lane, Wal worth, fire work-maker, examined—l know Mr. Bennett at whose house in Elizabeth-place the first explosion took place. I was first employed by him about 18 months ago at the ma nufactory usually called Madame Cotton's (Mr. Bennett's T;ie ealricd on was principally rolling cases for the fireworks—the fireworks themselves being made at Peckham. Mr. Bennett was not originally a firework maker, but Madame Cotton had been so for several years before he married her. I worked there for about 18 months. Mr. Bennett knew nothing about the business. I left the house about three quarters of an hour before the explosion took place. The business was carried on in . Madame Cotton's name. Mr. Bennett used to bring the fireworks from Peckham to Elizabeth-place and from thence to Cremorne and Vauxhall gardens. The only explosive mate rial kept at Elizabeth-place was coloured fire. It was kept in the front kitchen where Madame Cotton worked. It was used to charge cases for the gardens. The Coroner—Will coloured fire explode of itself ? Witness—lt will, if it is used harshly. Ido not know what quantity was in the house on the day of the explosion, but I believe the practice was to make it from day to day, as it wa. , wanted. The quantity used per day was not more than from four to six lbs. Ido not know what stock was up stairs, as I was not allowed to go up. Squibs and crackers were kept in the front of the house for a show. When I left the house there was a man at work in the back parlour " potting " rockets, that is, putting little heads on them to hold a star. There were two employed in the house rolling and " choking " mine serpents. By a Juror—The coloured fire was made in the back kit chen, but kept in h cupboard in the yard. Mr. Bennett was a barman by ptofession (laughter) before he married Madame Cotton. A.Jurcr-1)o you consider coloured red light is a proper thing to trust in the hands of a boy of 10 years of age? The witness replied that, although he was nominally the foreman, Madame Cotton was so headstrong she would take no one's advice but her ov, n. A Juror—How came there to be rockets in the house ? The witness said he did not know what was kept in the house.

Juror—How much powder would have caused such an explosion as that which took place ? Witness-141bs. would have done it if it had been con fined. A Juror—Would you, if you had becn allowed to employ the hands, have entrusted the filling of cases to boys of 10 or 11 years of age ichnsda Lhntl Witness—l would not ; but Madame Cotton was a self willed woman, and was master and mistress both. The Coroner—ls it usual to employ boys of such tender age at the firework business ? Witness—lt is nut. The Coroner—What would have led to coloured fire taking light ? Oop. Aileen of England Do.Pre:ereuce 7 per cent Orpt , blPplece.•.«•... 00000 Do. preference GI», fern Steam Witness—lt might have taken light if it had been dried too much before the fire. Hannah Walsh—l am employed as servant at a public house at Croydon, but I do not know the name of my master or the street at Croydon which he lives in. I was servant to Madame Cotton when the explosion took place. I slept in the first floor back. Mr. and Mrs. Bennett slept in the front room with a child. I never was in the back room on the second floor, nor can I tell what it contained. I never saw any fireworks in Mr. and Mrs. Bennett's bed room. The first room on the ground floor was a kind of shop. I believe it contained nothing but" dummies" (sham fireworks). The back room behind the shop was the place in which the men rolled the cases. The family took their meals in the front kitchen. The boys worked in the back kitchen. I never saw any gunpowder in the house. I never saw master do anything but write in the shop. He was nearly always out with a horse and cart. I never saw him bring any fireworks into the house from the factory at Peckham. I was in ►he house on the day of the fire in the first floor back. The first I heard of it was that the bo) hallooed, and ran up the kitchen stairs. I looked over the bannister and saw smoke coming out of the kitchen. My dress then took fire, and I ran into the balcony and was taken out with a ladder. John Watson (a little boy 11 years of age) examined—l never say my prayers, and I never heard of the Bib:e, but I have heard of God's Book. I know that heaven is a happy place and hell a wicked place, and that it is wrong to tell a lie. I live at New-street, Lambeth. I was employed at Madame Cotton's manufactory a week and five days before the explosion took place. I was cutting eases on that day. f was only once up stairs in the house. I saw nothing but furniture. The other boys who were employed used to fill the blue and red lights. I saw the red fire alight in the back kitchen, and ran up stairs, and through the shop into the street. I was at Mr. Gibson's (the opposite house) when it tank fire, but I did not see the fireworks shoot out. One of my hands was burned by the fire. By a Juror—l never filled any firework cases before went to work at Madame Cotton's. I saw the deceased Sarah Anne Williams as I ran out of the. house. Mr. Ben nett often saw me at work. Mrs. Bennett paid me 3s. a week. I was at Mr. Gibson's house when the explosion took place there. The witness Hannah Walsh was recalled, and stated that the canisters containing the coloured fire were as large as the ordinary canisters in a grocer's shop. Mr. Lewis then addressed the jury on behalf of Mr. Ben nett, and observed that that person was quite willing to be examined on oath, as he was quite certain that the un fortunate accident had not been occasioned by any neglect of his. his opinion was that it had been caused by an escape of gas, as the pipes had been tinder the care of the gas campany 's cfliccr at the time. He (Mr. Lewis) submitted that Mr. Bennett was carrying on a law ful trade in a lawful manner, and that as he ' had not on his premises any excessive quantity of explosive matter, he could not be held liable for the consequences of the catastrophe. In this case the evidence went to show that the ignition was spontaneous, and under such circumstances nojury would convict of manslaughter. The accident occurred daring his absence from the premises, and there was nothing to show either want of due care, or that a dangerous and excessive quantity of powder or any other explosive sub stance was on the premises. Mr. Bennett was ready to be called as a witness, and was prepared to tell the whole truth. The Coroner said he would rather not call Mr. Bennett, as, if he were asked any question which might tend to crimi nate him, lie would not be obliged to answer it, and there fore could not tell the whole truth. . Mr. Lewis—lle i, prepared to answer every question put to him. The Coroner—l do not like in any case of the kind to ex. amine a perion in his position, but if you wish to call him you can. Mr. Lewis said that under these circumstances he would defer to the opinion of the coroner. t E•eet Tie Telegraph English and Austl.Copper European It Indian June. Tl.legraph O.

Canada l ' V en Vernon's Land.., The Coroner then summed up the evidence, and told the jury that there was nothing morally wrong against Mr. Bennett, who had carried on a business which his neighbours took no measures to suppress. TLe question, however, was to what extent could he be held responsible for the lament able cltactrephe by which four pevons bad met their deaths tae.) ould tuvc to decide was whether ita had carried on the business of a manufacturer of fireworks on tlicee premises at all. The evidence went to show that he was in the habit of paying the men, that be brought the cases to the other manufactory at Peckham, where they were filled, and returned them to Elizabeth-place tq he orna mented,and that the smaller cases were charged with coloured fire in the house in which he lived. if the jury were of opinion that his dealings dii not amount to a carrying on of the business, then there was an end of the case, but if they were of a different opinion, then he was bound to tell them that Mr. Bennett was doing an unlawful act, by carrying on an unlawful trade, as the Act of Parliament, which had never been repealed, made it unlawful for any per sons except the Government of the day to manufac ture fireworks. With regard to the representation that the quantity of explosive substance was not excessive, it appeared that it was quite sufficient not only to blow up and destroy the house in Elizabeth-place, but to destrey another house on the opposite side of the street and to kill four persons, ned to injure many others. In his opinion, ff the jury believed the evidence, Mr. Sennett was clearly guilty of manslaughter, and was liable to be committed for that offence. It', how( ver, the judge on reading the evi dence and considering the Act of Parliament was of opinion that there was no olt:nce, lie would he ccquitted. The jury then retired to consider their verdict, and after an interval of half an hour returned with the following finding : —" That the deceased children, Caroline Bridges and Sarah Ann Williams, died in conscquctice of burns received by the explosion at a firework manufactory in the Westminster road, on the 12. th nit., carried on by William Bonyer Bennett, and this jury find a verdict of manslaughter against the said Wi!liam Bonver Bennett, for having unlaw fully carried on such manufactory contrary to s atute 9th and 10th William DI., cup. 7 ; and this jury eanuot separate without expressing their anxious hope that the proper authorities will take measures to prevent the reeurienee of such unnecessary calamities for the future." Mr. Bennett was then committed to take his trial at the , Central Criminal Court, but was admitted to bail. NORTH CHESTER ELECTION -THIS (By Electric Telegraph.)

":'ard, a labo urer , a b out 30 years dap, w as bought as rou before ? s r. Y ar dl ey, c h arged with being in a n 81aA , .. Lion Vtilearf, Lower East Smithfield, for the purpose ',A committing a felony. Mr. William "iliornas, one of the proprietors of the wharf, stated that yes' erday afternoon he thought he heard a noise in a wareho,.tee above stairs. lie ran up the stairs quickly, and in a s .11 Saw a arliw la-,•'9 . ii room partitioned off from the warehou se h e , ge: hamper openeeLand two books partially i n an d PiY out of the hanrper. Behind the hamper he disco vere,'., a flannel shirt and several other articles which had been tak.eniout of the hamper. Orilookinground he saw the prisoner be:WT.(I the door of the warehouse. He seized the prisoner and a'-k':(1 him what business lie had in the warehouse, ',,tl which he made no reply. He then gave the prisoner into custody. The hamper contained a good deal of valuable property, and belonged to a gentleman who was on his travels. Samuel Darnarell, a police-constable, 140 11, stated that on the way to the station-house the prisoner said be came from Southampton, and bad been in London three week% but en his arrival at the station-house he was unable to de scribe the town, and he declared ke was a Portsmoutk man, who had been in London two days only, lie believed the prisoner was a thief. Roche, the gaoler of the court, said he'had sonic recollec tion of the prisoner having passed through his hands. The prisoner, in his defence, said he came up to London from Portsmouth three nights ago, and was robbed of his money and property in Spitalfields, near the market. He bad been since in search of work, and hearing from a man that a gaod deal of plastering and whitewashing work was required to be done on Black Liun Wharf, he went there in search of a job. Mr. Yardley said that the prisoner was found in a ware house containing valuable property under very suspicious circumstances, and he did not at :01 like the prisoner's account of himself. He should therefore remand him until Monday, and give directions to some of the old and experienced officers of police to look after him. LONDON AND SOUTH-TVES7'ERN RAILWAY HALF-YEARLY MEETII76I. (THIS DAY.) The usual half-yearly meeting of the proprietors of this company was held teis day at the company's offices, at the "Waterloo Station, for the purpose of receiving the report of the direeters, declaring a dividend, and transacting the , general buiiness of the company. The chair was taken at one o'clock by Charles Castle maine, deputy•chairman of the hoard of directors. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, apologised for the few members of the beard present, but be supposed that the sea being rather heavy prevented their return in sufficient time lobe present that day. He thought the proprietors would be glad to hear that Mr. Chaplin had returned to his post with restored health, but having been absent so long it was his wish that he (Mr. Castlernaine) should wind up the affairs of the half-year by presiding at the present meeting. (Hear, hear.) He congratulated the proprietors on the slight effect the late commercial crisis had had upon their affairs, and it was gratifying to know that the South-Western had suffered less tha❑ many other railways, and during the lrst half-year a committee had been sitting to rscertain the cause of the falling off in the company's receipts de'ing th 3 previous half-year, and the decision they had arrived at was that it was to be attributed to the opening of the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Railway; hut the directors thought that as soon as the opening of the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway took place that falling off would be very soon recovered. (Bear, hear.) The net revenue fur the last six months, ending June 30, after deducting interest o❑ loans, and all other rreferential charges, amounted to £150,573. To this has been added £7,235, the surplus at Dec. 31, 1857, making g,157,808 available for dividend. The (shah-loan then alluded to the vat ions schemes of the past year, from which he argued that success would continue to attend the efforts of the directors. Ile was happ; to say that Mr. Errington, the engineer, had reported that the works on the Exeter extensio❑ line were proceeding satisfactorily, and it was a matter of congratu lation that the Richmond and Brentford scheme had been defeated in Parliament. He regretted that the House of Commons had shown a disposition to encourage railway speculation in a way that materially affected the interests of the old companies, and he regretted that the railway system had been placed at the disposal of a most in efficient tribunal created by that house. This tri bunal acted on no fixed principles, and was hound by no precedent. Instead of argument, caprice governed all its decisions, for any result arrived at after great deliberation in one roam was liable to be reversed on the same day in another room. Ile recommended the forma tion of an association for the mutual protection of railway interests. If such a tribunal was constituted, all questions affecting railway interests could be referred thereto, such, for instance, as the dispute that arose last year on some of the northern lines—a dispute that resulted in nothing but loss to all parties concerned. After some discussion the report was agreed to, a i ol ivi dend of £4 Ss. per cent. was declared, and the meeting separated.
