CA Sint ...-; ..3,;..---t\.:V.........t..„ _ . , --- (0 LONDOW, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1869. Whereas but a ve• y little more than twenty years ago the Iron Duke startled us all with the assertion that barely five thousand soldiers could be brought tog,:ther in de!'ence of the United Kingdom —Ergland has naw at her command nearly 11)0,000 of the Regular Army, fully 100,000 Militia, and not far short of 200,000 Rifla Volunteers. To be exact, so far as to speak really within the mark, the QuEEN's Army numb2r3, in 1809, as many as 90,000 men altogether—the Militia embraces wiihin it, at the least; 100,000 —the Volunteer Riflemen, who are continually increasing rather than falling off in their nuarliers, are, at this moment, at any rate, some 170;000 strong. A transformation of thingS so astounding as this has been accomplished, naoreova, with comparative facility,within a very brief interval. It has involved, of course, an enormou3 expenditure. But this prodigal expenditure the nation at large has never begrudged. The Crimean war realizA to THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, us all only too painfully the inefficient state to which our land forces had been reduced. The Italian war of NAPOLEON indicated, on the other hand, the extraordinary state of efficiency arrived at by the greatest of all the military nations of the con'inent. The in lifference as to our military defences, conse quent upon a prolonged peace, terminated almost abruptly. England suddenly awoke to the recogni tion of the imperative need there was of some com plete reorganization of her forces both by land and by sea. The navy has been transformed. The army has been transfortnel. The militia has been increased and multiplied. A National Guard, never dreamt of but a very few years ago, has, with astounding rapidity, sprung into existence. Barristers and mer chants, shopkeepers and artizans, clerks and work men, have volunteered their services as defenders, in case of need, of their houses an I altars ; hive donned their uniforms ; have allowed themselyes to be labo riously drilled, and have sedulously cultivated their capabilities in the skilled handling of their rips. The result being, as we have said, that England is not to-day what she entirely was in a manner yes terday, to all intents and purposes,defenceless. WEL LINGTON could say seriously, in 1847, that there was no reason why forty thousand Frenchmen could not be landed any day quite easily on our shores, and marched straight upon the unguarded metropolis. WELLINGTON would never dream, were he still amongst us, of making any similar assertion nowa days, under existing :circumstances. We have the forces now that were then required. All that is wanted at the present moment in regard to them is a better system of systematization. Numberless propo sitions to this end are being perpetually brought for ward both within and without the walls of the imperia Parliament. Very recently appeared some exceedingly thoughtful, and for the most part thoroughly well-eon sidered suggestions for the better organisation of our military forces, in the pages of Blackwood's Magazine —papers which have since been published separately with their author's name, that of the present Sir ARCHIBALD ALISON, duly announced upon the title page. Only last evening, again, a number of other equally thoughtful and not less thoroughly well-con sidered suggestions of a similar character were brought by Lord Erato under the consideration of the House of Commons. Consequent upon the speech then de livered by Lord Esau) an interesting discussion en sued, a discussion in which Colonel Nonni, Colonel GILPIN, Colonel WILSON PATIEN, Capt. VIVIAN, and Col. Lovo LINDSAY severally participated--the late Secretary for War, Sir Jots PAKINGTON, and the present Secretary fur l\ ar, the Right lion. EDWARD CARDWF.I.L, more or less candidly avowing their opinions also, as being, or as having been, responsible Ministers of the Crown, in regard to the more urge t requirements of the time upon the vital subject of our Army of Reserve. Remembering that retrench meat is just now the order of the day, the moment seems hardly propitious for any costly suggestions as to the better organisation of our land forces, whether in the matter of the Royal Army, of the Militia, of the Yeomanry, or of the Volunteers. 111rre particu larly bearing in mind that there is no especial urgency at this mo - nent i❑ the shape of any revival of the old panics as to the possibility, not to say the probability, of an invasion. As matters now are, already, we are as a people tolerably well prepared for any emergency. This being said in no boast fulness, but simply as the recognition of an indisputable fact. There is, moreover, a conscious ness on the part of the community that our national defences are materially strengthened by the simple fact of the extension of our railway and eleetro-tele graphic systems. Aided by those two great system, the troops of the line, the militia, the yeomanry, and the volunteers could, now, with the greatest facility and rapidity, be concentrated upon any given point according to the requirements of any sud denly reallsc.l emergency. Nothing, as ain titer of course came, or apparently was iateuded to come, of the debate provoked last. evening in the House of Commons by the motion brought forward by Lord ELcuo, a motion coznintarted upon by so many speakers both on the side of the Opposition and on the side of the Government, only, however, to be eventually withdrawn—as having served its purpose, namely, the ventilation, once more, within the walls of the Legislature of the vitally important theme of our national defences. THE New Zealdnd despatch by which Earl GRAN VILLE has already in a way made himself famous may be regarded as the official announcement of that great change in our colonial policy which has been in process for some years past. The issue between the Colonial Office and the New Zealand authorities involves the great question of where colonial self government and self-defence shall begin and where Imperial intervention shall end. The difficulties in which the colonists are involved with the Maories will require a sum of not less than £1,400,000, distributed over seven years, for their ultimate settlement. To raise such an amount out of taxation is hopeless. A loan is deemed necessary, and the New Zealand Government has applied to the Colonial Office for the assistance in the shape of an Imperial guarantee on a loan of a million and a half. Their agent in London argues that the credit of the colony is not good enough to raise this loan except at a high rate, and that the relations between the mother country and its distant depen dency are such that England is fairly under the obligation. It is true, says Mr. FITZHEHBERT, the New Zealand agent, that the colonists have under- taken the duties and responsibilities of self-govern ment, and that British aid in financial matters cannot as a rule be looked for. But these troubles with the Maories began before the transfer of autho rity was made. The Colonial Office handed over its authority and the Maori embroglio together. In order to make a fair beginning the colonists plead that Great Britain is under a moral obligation to help them through this costly business, and then for the future the infant hopes that it,will be able to walk alone. Earl GRANVILLE takes quite the opposite view. Very truly he remarks that the colony was governed from the first for its own benefit ; not the slightest advantage was derived by England from the connection. The colonists took the work of government at their own request. Even after the transfer of " the reins" a. large military force was kept in the islands to protect the settlers. The total cost of forming, governing, and defending the colony has been more than sufficient to purchase the entire territory. Why, then, asks the COLONIAL SECRETARY, should this expenditurebe continued? So far from the mother country owing her offspring anything more, the colony is already under large obligations for past help. It might be argued that a guarantee does not involve much ; but it is ex tremely probable—almcst certain—that the colony Earl Avcil s Would not be a bl e t o pay, and the Imperial Govern mo be called upon. Ndecision is perfectly sound. Englishmen cannot fail to feel the liveliest interest in the future of the colonies, and the most sincere wishes for their prcsi - Trity. Their population are in great part immediate relations of the generation now living ; their advancement must be England's triumph. But our friendship for the colonies ought not to be regarded as a pretext for saddling us with their pecuniary liabilities.. We have paid too much on their behalf already. It is clearly absurd that the hard-pressed taxpayer of East London should be asked to contribute for theprotection and government of colonists whose situation, as a rule, is better than his own. The - proposed guarantee amounts to nothing less than this. For a guaran tee in itself implies a liability to pay, and in this case the chance of our being called upon to refund part of the million and a half is very considerable. Let the colonists but consider our position, and they-will see the unfairness of looking for more assistance to a country which can hardly well support its own paupers. We have in times past freely accorded assistance in money and protection by land and sea to the colonies which were in need ; and of these New Zea land has been the chief. What has England received in return ? As a rule not only has the English nation paid its money to its offspring unconditionally, and without recompence, but as fast as the colonies have grown to maturity they have evinced their gratitude by adopting protective tariffs and closing their ports against us. It is wholly a mis take to suppose that the wealth of England is to be attri buted to the facts that her empire is the most magnifi cent the world has yet seen, and that on the QUEEN'S dominions the sun never sets. England's greatness is not measured by the number of svare miles over which her authority extends. The size of the British Empire is the effect, not the cause, of British prosperity. India, which is not a colony, is a direct source of wealth ; but the colonies mper contribute nothing except in the ordinary con K; of trade, and there is no proof that our trade with them would be smaller if they were independent. Their independence, in fact, is a continency to which Englishmen look forward with no apprehension whatever. In Austra lia and New Zealand the colonial Government is rapidly growing more and more powerful, and more independent of home control. When these vigorous young States arrive at full maturity, England cannot prevent their shaking off Imperial • rule altogether, nor can she have any wish to do so. It might be asked : If Britain's connection with the colonies is for the future to be so restricted, and if they are, when possible, to be self-supporting, what is the use of continuing the alliance at home ? The question admits of a very definite reply. Many of the colonies are wholly unfit to take care of them selves. To leave Barbadoes, Jamaica, or even Cape Colony to their fate, would simply be to abandon them to the sovereignty of some other Power, or to hopeless internal dissensions. All the minor colonies , have everything to lose and nothing to gain by their independence. They have no differences of moment with the Home Government. Some of them, it has been ascertained, will not take the trouble , to elect a local assembly. The number of men competent to do duty as legis lators and governors is very small. It is only in the case of two or three of the most important colonies that independence can be thought of. The New Zealanders must admit that, even under these more restricted conditions, even on the terms that they raise their own funds, and pay their own troops, the connection with England is of great advantage to them. Two hundred thousand people are not sufficient to form a State. We supply them with a governor, and so save them a political turmoil for which they have not the slightest desire. England will not protect them at th e cos t o f th e B r iti s h taxpayer, but they may have a n y nee d fu l force b y paying a reason able sum—a sum whi c h i s muc h s maller than that required for a colonial levy. It is, however, useless to enter into detail; for the colonists have seen the value of English conne c tion since they demanded and obtained a L eg i s l a t ure o f th e i r own, a pro ceeding which is now admitted to bo premature. As to the more populous British colonies, the inde pendence of New South Wales and Victoria is a question merely of time and convenience. Canada is very loyal. She needs time to consolidate the new Confederation, and she needs still more protection against possible encroachment from the South. The Dominion is prosperous at present ; jealousies, necessarily arising from the welding of so many provinces into one State, are disappearing, and there is no ground for the belief that much future trouble can arise from this source. It is not easy to unite small provinces, but it is still less easy to dissever them when the union has once been formed. When the Dominion has gained strength, it will be quite at the choice of its inhabi tants whether an independent State be formed, or whether they will join their great neighbour. England can suffer nothing by the transfer. So long as her prosperity lasts it will not be diminished by the severance of colonial connections. When it decays the many empires founded in different parts of the world will secure to the Anglo-Saxon race the glory of having contributed more than any other to the happiness and civilization of the world. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. EVENING A MUSEMENT.—Margaret Welstead and Mary Ann Moody, two low-looking young women, living in Seven Dials, were charged before Xr. Tyrwhitt with the following disorderly conduct. From thelevidence it:appearel thlt the prisoneis bad amused themselves of an evening for some time past by throwing red ochre and flour over tradesmen in and pass ing through Tower-street, and their ccnduct had at length become so intolerable that last night they were given into custody by a coffeehouse-keeper in Totter-street. say to the charge Wel stead lhn asked V fainted, nted, wh at a s they a t carried d out o o f court. Subsequently Mr Tyrwhitt, after cautioning the pri soners as to their future conduct, fined them ss. each. THAMES. SHAMEFUL CRUELTY TO HORSES.—John Amos, aged 40 years, of So. 2, Wharf-road, Cubitt-town, Poplar, carman, was charged by Mr. Simeon Sell, an officer of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with wilfully and cruelly torturing a horse by working it in an •unfit state. Sell was making inquiries about the defend. ant in Poplar relating to the seizure of two other horses belonging to him. They were found yoked to two carts at the \Vest-end and in a very miserable condition. They were sore on their backs and they were evidently suffer ing great agony. The magistrates remanded the drivers of the horses and carts and ordered summonses to issue against Amos, the owner of the horses, for allowing them to be worked in an unfit state. While Sell was in Poplar he saw another of the defendant's horses drawing a heavy van, and returning to his yard after delivering a heavy load of manure. There were large sores on the withers and hack. The horse was old, and there was scarcely a bit of flesh on its bones. Sell arrested the pri soner immediately. Mr. Paget said he was glad the Royal Society had taken up this case. The horse was in a most wretched condi tion. It was better to prevent suffering than to fine people, unless there was a case of great aggravation. Whenever a case of wanton cruelty to a horse or any other animal was proved, he would inflict severe penaities and punish the offenders to the fullest extent in his power. Mr. Pelham, solicitor, 'said the prisoner did not see the horse befOre it was sent with a van. • Mr. Paget lie ought to have seen it. Mr. Pelham—He has been incapacitated by illness from looking after his horses, and has trusted to his mon. Mr. Paget said the horse must have suffered acute pain, and must not be worked again until it was thoroughly cured. lle would adjourn the case for four weeks, and it would depend on the state of the horse when the case was again presented to his notice as to what sentence he should pronounce on the prisoner. WESTMINSTER. - _ SILLY DRVNKENNESS.-Mr. John Shaw, a person of gentlemanly appearance, of 24, Queen-street, Brompton, was charged with being drunk and disorderly. Policeman 190 B said that at a little before two this morning the defendant was drunk in Rutland-gate. • lie stepped upon a coal plate at 22, which made a noise, and then inquired of witness wh-ther it was quite right. Wit ness stoopf d and picked it up with some difficulty, as it was not fastened underneath, but it was perfectly zafe. Defendant insisted upon tinging at 22, and getting the family up. Witness endeavoured to dissuade lii:n, but h 3 insisted and rung the bell, and a male servant git up. Then ix:soner hired a c•tb to go to Itutland-gate, he NV.IS therp, and taking up the coal plate put it iu the cab. Mr. Arnold What do you say, Mr. Shaw ? Defendant—l um very sorry for being drunk, but I was not drunk. Mr. Arnold—l don't know what you mr , an by that. Defendant— I had been drinking, but was not &auk. A sergeant at the station said he was what you would call "silly" drunk. lle gave irrelevant and absurd answers to questions. I asked him what he was, and he said a scavenger, and that it was the first time he had been is a station, and ho should like to rennin. Lady Percevars servant, at 22, Rutland-gate, proved being disturbed in his sleep as described. Defendant said he wished to protect the safety of others by taking up the coal. plat,. Mr. Arnold thought he was going tho right way to en danger it by taking away the plate. His conduct had boen very silly, and he must pay Ws. fine. JUN ' 11, 1869 2'llE ARCILBISH OP OF CANTETWUDY. Some months ago a number of influential laymen, wttn the Lord Mayor and Mr. G. Moore at their head, having formed a high opinion of Dr. Tait during the time that ho was Bishop of London, determined, when he was trans lated to the Archiepiscopal See of Canterbury, to present a portrait of him to the Bishop's Palace at Fulham. The commission was entrusted to Mr. Sydney llodges, who has painted a very admirable full-length portrait of the Archbishop. This picture was on Thursday presented at Mr. Graves's, Mall-Mall, to the Bishop of London, in the presence of the subscribers, the Lord Mayor, and the Sheriffs of London. The subscribers were wholly laymen, although several clergymen desired to contribute. The Bishop of London, in acknowledging the presentation, spoke of the excellent qualities of his predecessor, and the valuable legacy he harl left them in his munificence and zeal. • SUND,AY AND RAGGED SCHOOLS EXEMPTION BILL. On Thursday a meeting to devise the best means to be adopted for securing the passing of Mr. C. Reed's bill exempting Sunday and Ragged Schools from local taxation, was held at the Westminster Palace Hotel. Mr. C. Heed occupied the chair, and amongst those present were Mr. Baxley-, M.P., Mr. A. Cross, M.P., Mr. Baines, M.P., Mr. Pell, M.P., Mr. Serjeant Simon, AT.P., Mr. J. Briscoe, M.P., Mr. Mellor, M.P., Mr. M'Arthur, M.P., the Hon. W. Egerton, Mr. Armitstead, M.P., Mr. C. Turner, M.P., Mr. Muntz, M.P., Mr. Ilibbert, M.P. The CHAIRMAN, having referred to the efforts that had been made in Parliament in former years to getSundayand ragged schools exempted from taxation, said they must allbe agreed that it would be a wise thing to test the feeling of the new House of Commons. They would, no doubt, meet with obstacles from the Government in getting their bill passed, but they must set about the task with all ear nestness. Mr. BAZLEY observed that nothing could be more unjust than the principle of taxing the benevo lence of the country. Whatever might be the case with the great endowed schools, it was certainly not fair to those which were supported by voluntary contributions. He trusted that Mr, Reed's bill would be well supported. In answer to a question from Mr. Wright, Birming ham, the chairman said his bill did not embrace elementary schools. Several speakers deprecated any addition being made to the bill, Mr. Cross reminding the meeting that the opposi tton of the Government would be so great that it would he very unwise to strengthen their hands by anything like disunion. Serjeant SIMoN urged that deputations should at once wait upon the Chancellor of the Exchequ(r. Mr. EGERTON thought it would be better to influence the - House of Commons first. Mr. HIBBERT supported this view. Let them fight the question out in the House. Mr. BAZLEY said the Government had much more respect for votes in the House than they had for deputa• tations out of the House. Mr. JOHNSTON, as an Irish, and Mr. ARMITSTEAD, as a Scotch member, each warmly supported the object of the meeting. Mr. BAINES was strongly of opinion that justice, com mon sense, and religion were all against the imposition of a tax on Sunday and ragged schools. Mr. BRISCOE quite agreed with previous speakers that if they asked too much from the Government they would probably get nothing. It was absolutely necessary that the meeting should be unanimous. Mr. GHENT, secretary of the Ragged School Union, pointed out that it was absolutely certain that if the tax ation of ragged schools continued, many of them must be closed. Mr. M'ARTIIUR would have no faith in a d(putatk.., to Mr. Lowe, but he would suggest that the facts of the case should be stated to Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Goschen, without asking for any expression of their opinion. MARRIAGE OF LORD LYTTELTON.---The marriage of the Right Hon. Lord Lyttelton, Lord-Lieutenant of Worcestershire, with Mrs. Mildmay, was celebrated on Thursday morning, at Perrystone, near Ross. The wed ding was a very quiet one. His lordship has been a widower ten years. THE MILITARY KNIGHTS OF WINDSOR.—The death of Major John M. Hewson has occasioned a vacancy in the Lower Foundation of the Military Knights of Windsor. Major Hewson died on Monday, in his 71st year, after a long and painful illness. This veteran officer retired on full pay from the 89th Regiment of Foot, and obtained his appointment as a Military Knight of Wind sor about three years ago. THE TRIAL OF A CHIEF CONSTABLE. The trial of Major Beswick, late Chief Constable for Birkenhead, was resumed on Thursday at the Central Criminal Court. The Major was charged with forgery. In defence the prisoner stated that he had been imposed upon, and called several witnesses as to character, amongst others Sir H. Storks. The jury found the prisoner guilty, but strongly recommended him to mercy on account of the character lie had received. The prisoner was sen tenced to five years' penal servitude. A JURY OF SMITITS.—The other day, at the Sheffield County Court, a case came on for trial which was to be heard before a jury. Each juryman, on being sworn, answered to the name of "Smith," and Mr. Hartley, the clerk, experienced some difficulty in deter mining mho were the right persons. This could only be ascertained by calling out the residence of each Smith. After the jury had been empannelled, the Smiths formed a line, and Mr. Blackburn said: "Are you all Smiths? Then I have no objection." ROYALTY IN SCOTLAND.—A despatch, dated Wick, Thursday, is as follows :—" Her Majesty's steam yacht Vivid, with his Royal Highness Prince Arthur on board, arrived at Stornoway on Monday night, on a tour through the Hebrides. Being desirous that his visit should not be accompanied by any demonstrations there was no public display, but a large crowd cheered him on landing next morning with Colonel Elphinstone and Lieutenant Pritchard. On Tuesday his Royal Highness visited Stornoway Castle, accompanied by Mr. Munro Chamberlain, for Sir James Matheson, who is now in London. He then visited some - Druidical remains at Callenish, sixteen miles from Stornoway, and thereafter spent Tuesday in rod-fishing, at which he was very suc cessful. The Prince enjoyed his visit exceedingly. The Vivid sailed hence on Wednesday morning." CHARLES DICKENS AND WASHINGTON IRVING.— The following letter from Charles Dickens is published in a recent number of the Round Table:—" Washington, February 9, 1868.—My clear Sir, —Your reference to my dear friend, Washington Irving, renews the vivid impres sions reawakened in my mind at Baltimore but the other day. I saw his fine face for the last time in that city. He came there from New York to pass a day or two with me before I went westward, and they were made among the most memorable of my life by his delightful fancy and genial humour. Some unknown admirer of his books and mine sent to the hotel a most enormous mint-julep wreathed with flowers. We sat, one on either side of it, with great solemnity (it filled a respectable-sized round table) ; but the solemnity was of very short duration. It was quite an enchanted julep, and carried us among innumerable people and places that we both knew. The julep held out far into the night, and my memory never saw him afterwards otherwise than as bending over it with his straw with an attempted air of gravity (after some anecdote involving some wonderfully droll and delicate observation of character), and then, as his eye caught mine, melting into that captivating laugh of his, which was the brightest and best I have ever heard.—Dear sir, with many thanks, faithfully yours, CHARLES DICKENS.—Charles Lanman, Esq., Georgetown, D.C." THE SUTHERLAND GOLDFIELDS. —A despatch which appears in the Northern Ensign, dated from Helms. dale, states that the Duke of Sutherland visited the diggings on Wednesday, when those selected for the pur pose sank a shaft on the level ground of the Strath near ICildonan Lodge. The result did not come up to the expects. tions of those interested, a few particles of gold being all that remained in the dishes after the stuff was washed out, The Duke did not consider the prospect sufficient to warrant further proceedings, and accordingly gave it to be understood that sinking would have to be discontinued in the meantime. He stated that the revenue derived from the diggings was not sufficient to cover the expenses in con nection with them. The diggers are generally dissatisfied at the insufficient nature of the search, and consider that. in order to ascertain whether rich deposits really exist or the Strati:, some thirty or for; - ,y hales cught to be sunk, and a thorough investigation made at various points along the valley, a few dishfuls of stuff from the bottom of one shaft being, in their opinion, not a sufficient test. The workings on the Suisgill and Kildonan burns are still being carried on, but many of those engaged in the work are making very little of it, and have lost much of their former courage and good spirits. Numbers of those that took out claims last month got very tired of the daily round of hard work and little pay, so that when their montl expired they did not renew their licenses, and left the district. A good many fresh hands have, however, ap. peared on the scene, and up to Saturday some eighty-two licenses had been issued for this mouth, and a considerable addition is expected to be made to the number. It won', appear that the Duke has been much gratified by the discovery 'of gold on his estate, and that he entertains kindly feelings towards the discoverer. Ile brought with him on this occasion a valuable gold watch, which he pre sented to Mr. Gilchrist • TILE ASCOT CUP DAY. Another of the great races of the year took place on Thursday at Ascot. The Cup Day was very well attended, and threatens soon to equal the Derby in the number of its attendants. If Pretender and Pero Gomez did not "draw" as was expected on the Derby Day, Blue Gown and Brigantine performed before an audience such as Ascot has never seen before. Promenading in the Grand Stand enclosure was a mere delusion. The visitors were packed as close as in the pit of a theatre, and the carriages and other conveyances extended three and four thick, as far down as the turn into the old course. Fourteen years ago a quietly-disposed man might have botanised at that spot, and hardly had another spectator to share hic emotion, when Fandango and Rataplan raced home round the turn, whereas now every square foot of the rails seemed to have its gazer almost as far as the brick-kilns. Some carriages were not " in position" at all, but the joys of luncheon seemed quite to atone for the lack of a line of sight. Owners of drags held an " at home" on the roof, and seated on their box footboards, with their feet in the boot, and the :Fortnum and Mason subjects of discussion on the box seat before them, did very comfortably on the whole. The cart company, on the contrary, placed their barrel at the cart tail, and sat down, regardless of ants and other delights, with their ruder fare on the sward. The day was fine overhead, but at times rather cold, and there was not one drop of rain to ease the troubles of those devotees of the road, who wound on the dusty way, while the verdure of crop and foliage on each side seemed to mock them with its freshness. ROYALTY. At a quarter-past one o'clock the scarlet liveries of tho royal party were seen on the hill of the new course, and as the usual procession advanced towards the Stand the people, in spite of every effort of Mr. Mott and his police. men, broke across the course, formed and dressed line in the middle of it, so that the wheels of the royal carriages brushed the clothes of the people, who cheered loudly and uncovered, as regards the male portion of the throng, almost universally. Their Royal Highnesses appeared to take very much pleasure in this spontaneous demon stration of mingled curiosity and affection, and as they passed on the cheering was takenup until they disappeared within the royal enclosure, the gate of which was imme diately blocked by a thick crowd. In the first carriage were the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Crown Prince of Denmark, and Princess Mary. In the next carriage the Duke of Cambridge was accompanied by Hussein Pasha. The third contained Prince Teck and Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar. The fourth, the Duke of Abercorn and party. The fifth, General Knollys and other gentlemen; and the last, the gentlemen in waiting:. THE UNCERTAINTY OF RACING. Ile meeting of 1869 will certainly live for some little time in the memories of racing men. Never has there been such a reversal of public form and running as we have witnessed this week. No horse seems to be able to run two days alike, and the Derby form, if the running is true, must be most moderate. Putting aside the bad figure cut by Pero Gomez, from l'retender could only just get home at Epsom, here was Duke of Beaufort, who had a narrow escape of place honours in the Derby, succumbing in the St. James's Palace Stakes to Dunbar, a horse whose pre vious performance has been only plating. Then, in the 7th New Biennial, Badsworth, whose two-year-old form was superior, could make no fight of it with two such second-rate animals as Bruce and Pandore. The Ring shouted after their manner as each successive favourite was defeated, and plungers could only look to the Cup to retrieve thei losses. ;:i• Z .

There were five entries for the Cup—Brigantine, Blue Gown, Formosa, Trocaddro, and Thorwaldsen. They were paraded round the Royal Enclosure, according to time-honoured custom, and Blue Gown led his four com petitors in and out among the gay toilettes in a perfectly composed manner. Blue Gown was first favourite, of course, and Formosa and Brigantine carried the rest of the money, the latter, perhaps, being the most fancied by the best judges. The pace was very bad, and it was not till they got to the lime-kilns that it at all improved. Tro caddro made all the running, Thorwaldsen and Blue Gown lying next, with Sir Frederick Johnstone's filly in the rear. At the three-quarters of a mile post the Oaks winner rushed to the front, and from that point the race was over. Blue Gown ran gamely, and answered to Wells's call opposite the Royal Stand, but he could not get up, and Butler landed Brigantine an easy winner by a length. Thorwaldsen was third, a neck behind Sir Joseph's horse, but, failing to draw his weight, was disqualified, and the third place given to Formosa. The following is a more detailed account of the race : Having performed their toilets, the five runners were marshalled round the royal enclosure prior to taking their preliminary canter, which ceremony over, they trotted down to the post, and were immediately despatched on their way at slow pace. Thorwaldsen, over-pulling Hudson, was the first to slew in the van, but after running a couple of hundred yards be was steaded, and Trocad6ro, on the far side, went to the front and led past the Stand clear of Thorwaldsen, next the rails, Blue Gown going on third, with Brigantine and Formosa, side by tide, a length or so in their rear, the pace being extremely slow. Rounding the top turn Challoner increased his lead, and commenced the descent of the hill half a length in advance of the north country representative, close up with whom lay the favourite, Brigantine, and Formosa, the lot, as they entered the Swinley Mile Bottom, getting on closer terms. In this order they proceeded to the turn into the Old Course, three-quarters of a mile fret home, rounding which Thorwaldsen, again having the best of Hudson, rushed to the front, and for a few strides headed Trocaddro, the pair being clOsely pursued by Blue Gown and Brigantine. Here the latter as they came over the road quitted her rearward position and joined issue with the leaders, the pace mewling considerably as they came towards the bend for home. Here Trocaddro was beaten, and was immediately headed by Brigantine, who came up on the inside, and joined Thorwaldsen, with Blue Gown and Formosa on the outside, the lot running closely together to half-way up the hill, where the latter gave way. Blue Gown here closed with the leaders, and as they neared the enclosure he headed Thorwaldsen and challenged Sir Frederick Johnstone's filly, and for a few strides the issue became most interesting ; but upon Butler calling upon the Oaks winner she drew away and won very cleverly by a length from the favourite, who defeated Thorwaldsen a neck for second honours, the latter finish• ing four lengths in advance of Formosa and Trocaddro. On returning to scale Hudson was found unable to draw the weight, and was disqualified, and Formosa thereby, fortunately for her backers, secured the place bets. The time, as taken by Benson's chronograph, was 4 min. 404 sec. Time of 1868 race, 4 min. 384 se, A NOVEL EXPEDIENT.—The walls of Belfast were on Tuesday covered with " Protestant placards," announcing that arrangements were being made to convey all opponents of the Irish Church Bill who wished to go to " London or the Crystal Palace," at very considerably less than single fares for return tickets. How the pro ceeding is to defeat the Church Bill is not quite clear. If such a project has any connection with intimidation, the hint may be taken by " the other side," and in that case the Ulster excursionists may find themselves terrifically outnumbered.—Northern Whig. IRELAND.—A telegram, dated Belfast, Thursday, says that the thirteen Orangemen who were arrested for riotous drumming were brought up to the police-court that day and fined 21 each, with the alternative of four. teen clays' imprisonment. The magistrates said that only for this being the first case of the kind this season, the prisoners would have been returned to the assizes.-- A telegram from Cork, says :—" A party of men attacked Bellone Hall, Youghal, on Wednesday night. The leade demanded all arms and money in the house, but the inmates refused to give them, and the fellows failed in their efforts to break into the house. The police have been searching the locality of the murder of Mr. Power, but found no weapons. They, however, pro fess to have obtained important information at Killarney."— On Thursday morning the paper mill of Messrs. Hamilton and Co., Glasgow, at Ballyclare, ten miles from Belfast, was totally destroyed by fire. The stock, machinery, and buildings, of the value of upwards of £20,000, were con sumed. The establishment was a most prosperous one, being worked both day and night. It was the largest establishment of the kind in Ireland. FATAL ACCIDENT TO A DIVER.—A man named Thomas Giles Ryder was, a day or two ago, engaged la sub-marine diving at a wreck off Broadstairs. He went down thrice on the clay in question, enveloped in his diving apparatus, into five fathoms of water, remaining below three-quarters of an hour each time. On the last occasion be went clown he signalled " MI right'' by th , line, and cast the wreck-line off, an I then signalled for another rope, which was sent down to him. After he had been below some eight or nine minutes it was found by the man above that no signal could be got from him, and then an attempt was made to pull him up by the air-tube con nected with his helmet. The attempt was so far success ful that the unfortunate man was brought within some six or seven feet of the surface of the water, when thr pipe snapped, and he sank at once. The body was e v aft . er wards recovered, and upon th e in guest medical 1,i . 0 ice chewed that Ryder had been suffering from inflammation of the pleura, and that the main cause of death was ar insufficiency of air while diving. Many of the diver, suffering from lung disease have been obliged to give up their calling from the fear of sudden death while C 7 the water. FRANCE. PARIS, June 11. The disorders and riots were renewed last nig" at Belleville and on the Boulevard Montmart re ' where two houses, 1 5 kiosks, and the office of an omnibus proprietor were sacked, and all traffic w ag interrupted. The Gardes de Paris charged the crowd, which was singing the Marseillaise. The proclamation of the Prefect of the Police; in which he announces his intention of preserving tranquillity by all means in his power, was torn down in several places. Towards 11 o'clock a dense crowd appeared upon the Boulevard Montmartre, the Place de la, Bastil le ' and on the Boulevard Villette. The public force occupies the most important points of the disturbed quarter, but up to the present hour no collision with the troops lu.s been reported. The disturbances were greatly aggrava# ed throug h the extinction of the gas lights at various Foi nt° of the Boulevards. Several members of the edi torial staff of the Rappel were arrested during th e day. By one a.m. this morning tranquillity Was re stored on the Boulevard Montmartre, and it is O°W occupied by the police and the Gardes de Fa r ', A few groups of people persisted in remaining in the neighbouring streets. The police succeeded in arresting y es terd al several individuals who tried to break into the 0 11 shop of M. Lefancheux in the Rue Vivienne. The following report of last night's proceeding' is published this morning in the Gazette de l r " buneaux. The Boulevard Montmartre was last night froW eight o'clock again the se me of disturbances.
