The decora tions will be entirely formed by wreaths of ar ificial roses, which will be twined round the white and gold columns, acid suspended between them along the aisles. Long fes toons of the seine flowers will also be hung all round the dome, and trained up to meet in the centre in deep folds. The mode of lighting on this occasion will be both novel and beautiful. A line of fine gas jets springs from each p•Ant of the cornice we have mentioned tnroirghout the entire length of the building, and a similar line of light from the lower and upper rings of the lofty dome: In fact, the tr tck of light bends obedient to the archi ecture of the building, so that its slim columns and general pronor.ior s are made conspicuous feature of the whole decoratious. In the archef. , between each column, also, chandeliers, draped—if we rnav use such a term—with wreaths of roses, will be hung, the tame styl e of decoration adopted from under the central dome. Nepe the Bow -street entrance of the building a raised dais is being erected for the accommodation o the ladies patronesses and filch immediate ti:ends. The supper will be served by Messrs. Staples in the large basement storey beneath, which will also be lit up and decorated like the Arcade above. When this ball has taken place pre parations will at once be made for opening the Arcade for the purpose for which it has been built. +- Now ready, 2 vols., with Portraits, 215., bound, HISTORY OF THE REIGN OF HENRY IV., King of FRANCE and NAVARRE, from Numerous Original Sources.

BURROWS and Co. are not disposed to comment upon the purity of their wines, which is daily most laudably acknow ledged by the public and eminent medical men of all noun fries, as the increasing patronage of the highest families in the land is a sufficient guarantee. They beg to call particular attention to their pure Tonic Wines, as being so valuable to Invalids and persons of weak Stomachs. A sample case, containing three full-sized wine bottles, will be forwarded to any address on receipt of P. 0.0. for Gs. ed., or a dozen for 24e. It is a well-known fact that impure and adulterated wines are the greatest foes to health, producing acidity in the stomach, and debilitating the digestive organs, while pure wines will accelerate the digestive powers, invigorating, strengthening, and bracing the nervous system. Their Tonic Wine is admitted to be most essential to in valids, both old and young, and should never be absent from the homes of the weak and sickly. Its properties are duly acknowledged and appreciated by the leading men of the faculty, both at home and abroad. To prevent imposition each bottle is sealed with the name Of the firm. . • ---- ---- All orders to be made payable to HENRY BURROWS.

The idea of a great central metropolitan market for flowers has always been a favourite one with Mr. Gye, and which that gentleman has before prsposed, though unsuc cessfully, to bring into use. The only good opportunity which offered of carrying out the plan was to erect the Arcade on the south of the new Opera, on that space of ground where a pile of building materials so long offered an unpleasant contrast to the Opera-house itself. This chance has now been taken aslvantage of, and the improvement has at last been perfected. From its proximity to the theatre, and the general style of the design, most people were led to imagine that the new building was chiefly intended to form an ornamental accessory to the Opera-house. This, how ever, is quite a mistake. On a few of the State Opera nights during the season the A rca d e may be closed earlier than usual to allow of its being swept, illuminated, an d thrown open to th e f requen t ers o the Opera ; but beyond three or four such gala nights in the year, the Arcade will be nothing more or less than a flower-mart, the want of whin, it is stated, has long been felt among the floricul turist. of the metropolis. Some twelve months since a de tail of the chief dimensions of this building apeared in our columns ; but, both from the fact that it has since been entireli completed and ecorated, and is now about to be formally inaugurated by the Volunteer Ball of Wednesday next, a general dpscription of the whole structure will be of interest to our readers. - The greatest and most important fault of all our glass and iron buildings has generally been their deficiency in anything like ornamental details, or, to speak plainly, their extreme ugliness. The building. of 1851 was bald and un artistic in the extreme ; while that of Manchester, not hav ing its size to redeem it, was even worse. So with the New York edifice ; so with that of Dublin. Nothing was ever attempted in the way of ornament. All these buildings have, in fact, been m ere sm i t h' s wor k —artists have bad very little to do with them. From this great fault the Floral Arcade has been redeemed by Mr. Gye's wishing to have a tasteful structure, and fiading an architect like Mr. Edward Barry, capable of carrying out his wishes. The ground-plan and shape of the building may be best described as resembling the letter L, the largest and principal entrance being by the side of .the Italian Opera, at the end of the longer arm of the letter, while the other entrance opens upon Covent-garden Market, by the side of the Piazza, at the end of the shorter arm. In a direct line from these two entrances run the main arcades, and over the point formed by their junction at right angles rises a lofty dome—the first time that anything of the kind has been attempted in glass and iron. The extreme length of the Arcade from the Bow-street entrance to the west wall is no less than 228 feet, and the short arm from Covent-garden Market to the theatre wall 100 feet. The width of each of the main ar cades is 75 feet, of which the light semicircular arched roof occupies 50 feet, with two side aisles between the main columns and the walls, each nearly 13 feet wide. The springing of the arches for the roof is just 29 feet from the ground, and on to the top of the arched roof is 57 feet; the roof is thus almost a perfect semicircle. The dome is also nearly a complete hemisphere, 50 feet in diameter at the base and 25 feet high, making the total height to the circu lar lantern it supports a little over 90 feef in all. The Bow-street entrance —and of course that at Covent garden is similar to it—is exceedingly pretty and simple. The doorways aro deeply recessed, so as to do away en tirely with the flat, boxy, hard appearance which the en trances to such glass and iron buildings have generally con trived to monopolise. The raised iron arches which give admission to the interior also aid considerably in removing this flat effect, while the hand some cast iron cornice, or moulding, passing across th e b ase o f t h e arched roof gives lightness the whole. The radii of the lofty roof, seen from the outside, are highly ornamented, and spread out like an elaborate fan ; and the outermost curve of the roof over the entrance is surmounted with a kind of corona of cast-iron work, which gives a very graceful effect to the whole. Glass and iron buildings are, of course, eminently light in their construction, and this peculiarity, with the ornamental features we have mentioned, is more noticeable in the Floral Arcade than in any other building of the same sort. Of course the principle of light and elegant design is fully carried out in the interior. The east-iron columns supporting the nave roof; instead of being, as is usually the case, mere iron cylinders, rough and unadorned as csntract lamp-posts, are all cast of a handsome pattern, with ornamental bases and rich capitals, the latter per forated to ventilate the basement story beneath the market, with which the hollow columns communicate. All round the interior, at the springing of the arches, is a gilt cas t-i ron moulding or cornice, of a very pretty design. The aisles are, as we have stated, nearly 13 feet wide and 30 high, the theatre wall forming the wall of the north aisle, and the wall of the Arcade the south. The latter is pierced with recessed windows to correspond in ap pearance with that of the theatre. The arches which carry the roof of the nave are trellissed, and apparently of the very lightest possible construction, though, slender as they are in appearance, they are eminently strong in fact, and have been tested with a strain far exceeding anything that can ever coins upon then, as in reality they have nothing but themselves to support. Between the main arched ribs or " principals" as they are termed, transverse bars of " deck' iron, T shaped, stretch along the whole length of each arcade, at intervals of about six feet apart, and are ri vetted to the arched principals in such a manner as to give the whole roof the rigidity of one piece. The dome is composed of 22 semicircular ribs, braced round with wrought-iron horizontal supports. These ribs are not com pletely semicircular, but rather form a quarter of a circle, all resting upon an iron collar in the centre, which carries the lantern. The Covent-garden entrance continues the public way of the Piazza along its front by a !wise] glass and iron gallery, 60 feet long by 25 feet broad. The base ment floor under the Arcade is one of the most extensive apartments, if we may so term it, which has been excavated anywhere in London, except in the regions of the docks. It has the same large area as the building above it, and is no no less than 10 feet high; 48 10. inch cast-iron columns carrying the floor of the Arcade above on wrought-iron girders, the spaces between which latter are filled in with tiled arches, so as to make the whole place fireproof. Through all parts of the building hot-water pipes pass for keeping up the temperature during winter, and gas is of course laid on to every, part, so that in case of night fetes, as with tho Volunteer Ball next week, the whole structure can be illuminated in the most brilliant manner. In this sketch we have merely given an outline of the chief architectural features of this handsome building. The purpose for which it has been per manently erected is, as its name implies, that of a flower-market, intended to bring together under one roof, specially adapted for the purpose, the immense trade which is now scattered all over the suburbs of London in the hot houses and grounds of our great florists and nurserymen. Few that are at all acquainted with the statistics of the flower market,. the distance to which amateurs are now obliged to drive in search of plants, and the many difficul ties caused by the chief growers having their grounds so far removed, will doubt the large trade to which this mar ket will give a general centre. The whole area will, of , course, be divided among the principal growers, and all the ' flowers will be arranged in large raised banks in the centre nave, with smaller ones in the aisles. Seeds, cuttings, tools, and ornamental garden furniture of all kinds will be sold only in the aisles, the centre being reserved exclusively for flowers. Neither fruit nor vegetables will be sold there. So much for the aver-market. But general attention is just now more directed to its inaugural opening by the Volun teer Ball next Wednesday than to any part of its floricul tural future. No effort, apparently, is being neglected to make this ball one of the best of its kind. All the columns, capitals, cornices, archee,.and, in short, all the ornamental We republish to-day, verbatim front The Moniteur, the original of the Speech delivered by the Emperor at the opening of the French Legislature on Thurs day last.

MESSIEURS LES SENATEUR3, MESSIEURS LES DEPUTES, A l'ouverture de la derniere session, con fian t dans le patriotisme de la FraNce, je tenais a premnoir vos esprits contre les apprehensions exagerEes d'une guerre probable. Aujourd'hui j'ai a eseur de vous rassurer contre les inquietudes suscitees par la pail meme. Cet te pair je la veux sincerament at je ne negligerai rien pour la main tenir. Je n'ai qu'a me feliciter de mes relations amicales avec toutes les Puissances de l'Europe. Les seuls points du globe ou nos armes soient encore engagees soot dans l'extreme Orient ; mais 1. courage de nos marina et de nos soldats, aide du loyal contours de l'Espagne amenera bientilt sans doute un traite de pair avec le Cochinchine. Quant a la Chine une expedition seri euse combinee avec les forces de a Grande Bretagne, lui infligera le chatiment de sa perfidie. En Europe des difficultes touchent je l'espere a leur terrne ; et l'ltalie est a la veille de ce constituer librement. Sans revenir sur les longues negocia.tions qui se trainent depuis tant de mois je me borncrai a quelques points principaux. _ _ _ La pensee dominante du traite de Villafranca etait d'obtenir l'independance presque complete de it Wilkie au prix de la restaural ion des Archiducs Cette transaction, avant echoue. malgre mes plus wives instances j'en ai exprime mes regrets a Vienne comme a Turin ' • cit la situation, en se prolongeant me naga it de demenrer sans issue. Pendant qu'elle etait l'objet d'explications loyales entre mon Gouvernement et celui de l'Autriche, elle inspirait a l'Angleterre, a la Prusse et aht Russie, des .demarches dont Pensenable atteste clairement de la part des grandes Puissances le deiir d'arriver a la conciliation de tousles interets. Pour seconder ces dispositions it importait a la France, de piesmtcr la combinaison dont l'adoF tion avait le plus de chance d'être, aceeptee par l'Europe. Garantissant par mon armed contre l'intervention etrangere, j'ai vais le droit de marquer les limiter de ectte garan tie. Aussi n'ai-je pas hesite a declarer an Roi de Sardaignd que tout en lui laissant l'entierc liberte de ses actes je ne pourrais pas le suivre dans une politique qui avait le tort de paraitro aux yeux de l'Europe vouloir absorber tousles etats de l'ltalie, et ntenacait de nouvelles conflagrations. Je lui ai conseille de repondre favorablement aux vceux des provinceo qui s'offraient a lui ' main de maintenir I'autonomie de la To,c ine et de respecter en principo les di oit du Saint-Siege. Si cet arrangement ne satisfait pas tout le monde it a l'avantage de reserver les principes de calmer des apprehensions, et it fait ou Piemont en royaume de plus de neuf millions (Patties. En presence de cette transformation de du Nord qui donne a un kat puissant tous les passages des Alpeeil etait demon devoir, pour la suretede mos frontier ei de reclamer les versants Francais des montagnes. Cette revendication d'un territoire de peu d'etendue n'a rien qui doive alarmer l'Europe et donner un dementi a la poll tique de desenteressment que j'ai proclamee plus d'une fois, car la France ne veut proceder a cet agrandissement, quelque faible soit ni par une occupation militaire, ni par une insurrection pro voquee, ni par des sourdes manoeuvres, mais en exposant franchement la question aux grandes Puissances. Elles comprendront sans deute, dans leur equite comtne la France le comprendrait certainement pour chacune d'elles en parcille circonstance, que 'important remainement territorial qui va avoir lieu nous donne droit a une garantie indiquee par la nature ellememe. Je ne puis passer sans silence remotion d'une partie du monde Catholique: elle a cede subitement a des impressions si irreflechies, elle s'est jetee dans des alarmes si passionees ; le passe, qui devait etre une garaatie de ravenir, a ete tellement meconu, les services rendus tellement oublies, qu'il m'a fella une conviction bien profonde, UT • confiance bien al s):w dans la raison publique, poir conserver, au milieu des agitations qu'on cherchait a exciter, le ealme qui seul nous maintient dans le vrai. Les faits cependant parlaient hautemcnt d'eux metne depuis onze ens je soutiers seul a Rome le pouvoir du St. Pere sans avoir un seul jour cesse de reverer en lui le caractcre sacre du chef de notre religion. D'un autre cote, les populations de la Romagne, abandonnes tout a coup a tiles memos, ont subi un entrainement natural et cherche a faire dans la guerre cause commune avec nous. D'evais-je les oublier a la pair, et les livrer de nouveau, pour un temps illimite, aux chances de i'occupation etrangere. Mes premiers efforts ont ete de les reconcilier avec leur Souverain, ct,n'ayant pas reussi, j'ai tache du moires de sauvc - garder dans les provi nces sou l ev e es le plincipe du pouvoir temporal du Pape. D'apres ce qui precede, vous voyez quo, si tout n'est pas encore termine, comment it est permis, du moins,d'esperer rnaintenant une solu tion prochaine ; le moment semble done venu de mettre un terme a de trop longues preoccupations et de recherchc r l es moyens d'inaugurer hardi inent en France une nouvelle ere de paix. Deja rartnee a ete reduite de 150,000 hommes, et cette reduction eut ete plus considerable sans la guerre de Chine, l'occupation de Rome et de la Lombardie. Mon Gouvernement va immediatement vous soumettre tin ensemble de mesures qui ont pour but de faciliter la production, d'accroitre, par la vie a bon marehe, le bienetre de ceux qui travail lent,:et de multiplier nos rapports commerciaux. Le premier pas a faire dans cette voie emit de fixer l'epoque de la suppression de ces barriercs. infranchissables qui, sous le nom de prohibitions, en excluant de nos marches beaucoup de produits etrangets,contraignaient les autres nations a une reciprocite facheuse pour nous. Mais quelque chose de plus difficile nous arretait encore, c'etait le peu de penchent pour une traite de com merce avec l'An gleterre, Aussi ai-je prig resolument sur moi la responsabilite de cette gran de mesure. Une refiexion bien simple en demon tre ravantage pour les deux pays : I'un et l'autre n'auraint pas manque certainetnent, au bout de quelque minces, de prendre, chacun dans son propre interet, 1' initiative des mesures proposees ; mais alors, rtabaissetnent des tarifs n'etant pas simultane, it aurait cu lieu de part et d'autre suns compensation immediate. Le traite n'a done fait qu'avancer repoque de modifica tienssalutairesetdonner a des reformes indispensa bles le caractere de con cessions:reciproques, dest:. nets a fortifier ?alliance de deux grandes peuples. Afin que:ce traite puisseproduire ses meilleurs effets je reclame votre concours.le plus energique pour l'adoption des lois qui doivent en faciliter 14 mise en'pratique. J'appelle surtout votre attenti on sur l es voles de communication, qui seuls, par leur devel loppement, pouvent nous permettre de lutter avec rindustrie etrangere ; mais, comme les moments de transition sont toujours penibles, ct MANSION-HOV'SE.—Cbarles Stanmore, 18, was charged with eznbezzling monies to the amount - of £75, received by him on account of , his employer, Mr. W. Williams, of Gutter-lane, manufacturer, in whose eel vice he had been collector. Mr. P. Macdonald, philter, Sutton -street Clerk-• enwell, deposed that he dealt with Mr. .Williams,:" ana that on -the Oth of Noyet4ber. kit Wilpma to` the-prisoner acOunt•eflbocliseeutor £3 9s. 3d., and received—the' receipt produced. Also that he paid to the prisoner the sum' of £6 Gs. iu the same way on the 4th of February last. Miss A. Poulson said she lived with her brother, a fancy box maker, in 13unhill-row, and that on the 17th of January last she paid to the pzisoner, on account of Mr. Williams, the sum of • .1:5 165., for which the prisoner gave her the receipt produced. Mr. L. Collingridge, of 117, Aldcrsgate street, printer, produ ce d a rece i pt f or £ 2 17s. Gil., paid by him to the prisoner on account of Williams, on the 21st of December last. After some other evidence as to similar payments, Mr. G. Alce, clerk to the prosecutor, said the prisoner had been in the employ of Mr. Williams, who is a collar manufacturer, as collector, and should have accounted to witness for all sums of mo:ley received by him ou the same day on which he re ceived them. The receipts produced were all iu his handwriting; but he had never accounted to witness for any of the sums to which they referred, nor was there any entry to the credit of the diffe. rent parties for those amounts in the books of the firm. When spoken to about these sums, the pri soner made a variety of excuses, saying that he had applied from time to time without being able to get them. Police -constable 348 said he took the prisoner into custody at the house of a friend, and on ask ing him w'y he had absented himself from his business that day, he said be was ashamed to show his face. He said he had spent the various sums of money which he had embezzled, in the Hay market, with other lads of his own age. The prisoner, who said nothing when called upon for his defence, was fully committed for trial. GUILD HALL.—Wm. Ft ancis Vandervel, a mer chant, was brought up on a warrant about a fort night ago, charged with fraudulently appropriating to his own use certain securities in the shape of bank and railway shares, of the value of £7,000, belonging to Anne Bruc3 Borland and others, was again placed at the bar for examination relative to that charge. The prisoner, who reserved his defence, was com mitted for trial. WESTMINSTER.-4-Miss Martha Augusta Ar thur Richards, of 13, Chester -street, Grosvenor place, was charged with fraudulently obtaining £ll. Mr. James Phipps, of 36, Belgrave.street, Pim lico, butcher, stated that short -y before the 17th of January the accused's servant brought him a cheque for £ll on the London and County Bank, which he cashed. He paid the cheque into his bank( rs, Messrs. Cooks, Biddulph, and Co., and it was returned to him with a statement that there were no effects to meet it. lie sent to the accused repeatedly about the matter, but. could get no satisfaction, and on his sending her the cheque he was informed she burnt it. She had endea voured to obtain cash of him for a £5O cheque, but finding the first dishonoured he of course refused to take the second. In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis, jun., prose cutor could not say whether the £ll chique was postdated one day. Could not say that £l3O was paid into her account at the London and County Bank next day. To the best of his belief the manager told him she had closed her account. Directly after he bad sent the cheque to his bankers, accused sent to him to say he could have the £ll ; but as he had sent the cheque away he said he could not take it—she must pay it into her bank to meet the cheque. Prosecutor had heard she had purchased the lease of her house in Chester-street and its costly furniture at an outlay of X 5,000. It having been stated that prosecutor was not prepared with evidence from the London and County Bank, Mr. Arnold said he must adjourn the ease. 3Nlr. Lewis pointed out the pitiable condition of his client, who had been supported in fainting fits during the bearing. A warrant had been obtained against her by Mr. Phipps, as though she were a com mon swindler. She was a lady of very good family, who had not the slightest intention to defraud any one, and he could prove that shehad. paid in £l3O the next day after Mr. Phipps had cashed the cheque, to meet that and other liabilitie, besides which it was quite clear she had sent Mr. Phipps the money, which he had refused to take. 111 Iry one of the accused' s servan t s, r l baring offered to pay Mr. Phi pps t h e i ll. ts g t e n, Mr. Arnold said that Mr. Phipps's conduct had been most disingenuous, in keeping back from his knowledge when he applied for the warrant the fact that the .£ll had been offered. He (Mr. Arnold) must, however, further investigate the charge, but would take the accused's own recog nisance to appear again in a week. A second charge of fraud against her for obtain ing a silk dress was also postponed. SINGULAR ACCIDENT.—At the late collision on the North British Railway at Linton, several fog signals which were in the guard's van were thrown into some coal trucks, and there lost sight of. The coals were disposed of to several persons in Linton, and among others a quantity was supplied to Mr. Mason, banker. While placing sOlllO of them on the fire, the attention of a servant was attracted by one of the fog signals in question, which was lying among the coals ; but not being aware of the character of the object, she threw it on the fire. Here it lay for some time, until Miss Mason, observing the peculiar appearance of the signal, took it out. Mi. Christie, of Over Hailes, happening to call at tho time, found Miss MiAmsi inspecting the strange-looking mineral; and when thee' plicatiou of the lady's scissors filled to give any satisfaction, Mr. Christie determined to test its qualities by breaking it. Laying the signal on the hearthrug, he gave it a smart blow with the poker, and the result which followed may be easily imagined. With a deafening concussion the signal imme ,iately ex ploded, spreading alarm all around. Fortunately Miss Mason escaped without injury; but a portion of the signal shell struck Mr. Christie on the head, laying bare a portion of his scalp, while the head of the poker, which was blown off, struck him on the wrist, and inflicted a severe wound. Medical aid was immediately procured, and Mr. Christie is recovering favourably from the effects of the untoward oc eurrenca.—Haddingtonsh ire CUM' le 1' . [A ovEansEmENT.]-31r.
