" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea ture able to understani ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in theiri,several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the lilt e advantages on our offspring to follow, and filially by the cultivation ,f our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.

The Us!4er of the Black Rod appeared at the bar, and summoned the attendance of the Commons to hear the Royal Assent given by Commission to various Bills (for which see Lords' report). OUTRAGE ON BRITISH SUBJECTS._ Mr. O'CONNELL presented a petition from Thomas Brodigan, Esq , Pilton House, County Meath, a magis trate of that county, complaining of the outrage to which he, in common with other British subjects, was subjected on the occasion of bis visiting Jerusalem on Good Friday last (detailed in the correspondence which appeared in the The Sun of yesterday), and praying that effective measures may be resorted to by the English Government, which will cause the Sublime Porte to exert a more repressive authority against such outrages, and thus protect British travellers visiting the East. CLARK'S DIVORCE BILL. Lord DUNCAN moved that a message should be sent to the Lords, requesting their Lordships to furnish this House with a copy of the minutes of the evidence taken in Clark's Divorce Bill. SECOND READINGS. The following Bills were read a second time: — Clark's Divorce. Ely and Huntingdon Railway (Bedford Extension). Howell's Charity Estate. Sheffield and Lincolnshire Extension Railway. Somerset Sinal Debts Court. GLASGOW AND BELFAST UNION RAILWAY. Mr. HODGSON moved that the further consideration of the report on this Bill should be postponed until the evidence had been printed. After some considerable diJcussion strangers were ordered to withdraw. On our re-admission we found that no division had taken place, but that the postponement of the question had been agreed to. IRISH GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. Mr. T. S. DUNCOMBE presented a petition from several of the shareholders of the South-Western Rail way Company praying that the House would not grant any power to the Portarlington Railway Company, which would allow that Company to purchase their line or railway. They also prayed that the decision of the Committee with regard to that railway might be allowed to stand. Mr. F. FRENCH, in moving the re-committal of the Irish Great Western Railway (Dublin to Galway) Bill, said that there was naturally and equitably a feeling in the House to support the de cision of its Committees, and such a feeling should not be departed from unless upon some strong and peculiar grounds. This Bill had received the sanc tion of the Board of Trade and had actually passed both Lords and Commons. The evidence on which the decision had been come to. and the decision of which he com plained, was in the hands of every Member of that House. The Committee came to the decision that they would not allow parties to be heard in opposition to the preamble of the Bill, notwithstanding whioh they admitted such evidence. The line was recommended by the Board of Trade because it would open up railway communi cation between the eastern, western, and southern ports of Ireland. After stating that the Bill had received the sanction of the House of Lords, he said he called for a revision of the Bill on the broad ground of public interest and national justice. They had witnesses to prove that another line would have been more consonant with the public good, but the Chairman refused to hear the evidence. He look e d i n vain for any reason s which would h aws justified the Committee having thrown out the line which he (Mr. French) advocated. The opposing counsel to it admitted that they had completely proved the pre amble of the Bill, yet the Committee came to a far differ ent conclusion. Their great object wasto open the western district and thus open the fisheries, , for which a Dutch company, i n the r e i gn of Charles the Second, paid for liberty to fish 5,0001. per annum. They depended on the fact of being able to connect Liverpool with Am eric a by a voy age o f seven days • and with such eviden ce before them he wond ere d how Ale decision had been arrived at by the Committee. Mr. W. COLLETT, in rising to sscond the motion, expressed his astonishment at the decision the Committee had come to, seeing that the Dublin and Galway line was the only railway t hat pr o p ose d to accommodate Galway, and thought , as Parliament l ast year all but sanctioned the measure, the House ought to support its decision of the former Committee. Mr. MACKENZIE defended the course adopted by the Committee. lie denied that the Bill was the same as the one which was before the House last year, and he would therefore oppose the motion. Mr. REDINGTON believed that the Committee had acted conscientiously',but their decisi on was noth i ng less than absurd.--(Hear, hear.) All his Hon. Friend sought by his motion was, that the House should give effect to the decision given by the House of Lords on this subject during the last session of Parlia ment, Tha p ills ward not nec essar i ly competing Bills, and the House of Lords, looking upon them in that light, had passed them. Be lieving that hig Honourable Friend had made out a sufficient case for his motion, he should give him his support. If the motion were not agreed to, he considered that the vast population which wo uld be accommodated by this railway would be most un justly treated. S JULY 4, 1846, Mr. B. BALDWIN briefly supported the motion. Mr. ARMSTRONG thought the line under con sideration objectionable, as a means of communica tion with the West of Ireland. The proper route for Galway was by Muflinger. He should as soon think of going to Bristol by way of Southampton, as go from Dublin to Galway by the route of Mußinger. Ireland should be supplied by three great trunk lines— to the north by Belfast, to the south by Kilkenny, and to the west by Mu'linger. Mr. ROSS said he would say a few words on the pe tition presented that evening against the reconamital of the Bill. lie was informed that the promoters of the Dublin and Galway Railway would not make the line on their own responsibility, for the shareholders had held a meeting, and agreed not to go on with the Bill, unless it was leased to another company. Mr. BLAKE opposed the re-committal of the Bill, on the ground that the town of Athlone would not support two railweye. Mr. MOFFATT was also of opinion that the decision of the Committee ought to be supported as it was quite carried out by the evidence. Mr. T. S. DUNCOMBE said, that in consequence of one or two observations which had fallen from the Hon. Member for Roscommon, some answer was required from What were the reasons which the lion. Member for Rosoommon adduced for the recommittal of the Bill P The first ground of complaint Wes theft he (Mr. Duncombe) 'as chairman of the Committee, did not turn a Parliamentary agent out of the room for giving his counsel the lie. What was it that the Honourable Member for Roscom mon (Mr. F. French) proposed ? Why, that the Bill should be re=committed, but that it should not be sent back to the same committee, What was this but saying that it should ho sent back to some other Committee, whose decision was to over ,throw the decision of a Committee properly constituted; and this he believed to he so contrary to the usage of the HOW that it was not at all likely to be adopted. The lionoureble Member for Dundalk had stated that he should have been satisfied if the Committee had passed both lines, and that good feeling would thereby have been secured ; but in reply to this, he (Mi r , T. Puncatube was b°und to assert that j@ had never in the whole course of his life seen such bad feeling and so much jealousy as had been exhibited by both parties in this Committee. It should be recollected that this line had last session been thrown Rat t y the Lords. The same bad occurred with regard to the Portarlingtee line, as well also in the case of the Mullingar andGalway line. The Cashel line, it was notorioue, was to be sold to this Company, and h@ thought, therefore, that, taking all the circumstabves into consideration, there was every reason for the decision at which the Committee had arrived. Then the Irish Great Western, by art agreement, was to cease to exist if they obtained tits Act, as they had en tered into an agreement to sell it to the Cashel Company, What guarantee had the public that this line would be made to Galway ? He maintained, therefore, that the Mullingar Company ought not to be entrusted with the construc tion of this line of railway. Then it was necessary three fifths of the shareholders of the Cashel Company should be in favour of carrying out this bargain, but the evidence adduced before the Carammittee was to the effect that that Company would not con sent to such an agreement, The petitions, too, presented from parties h o ldi ng shares in the Company, were to the same effeet. What operated on the minds of the (3OUltnittee was, that the Cashel Company were not the parties to make this railway. Sir John Bur goyne, whose official position rendered him an impartial witness, was also of the same opinion, and considered that there ought to be three main branch lines—one radiating from Dublin down to Cashel and the southern part of Ireland—the other going west by Mullingar, through Athlone to Galway, and the other from Dublin to Belfast. The Hon. Member here produced a large map of Ireland, in which the country was divided into three large divisions coloured separately, red, yellow, and blue. The portion coloured red, which occupied nearly the half of the map, was that which the lions (imble Member said the Great Western Company modestly claimed for themselves. Another map was also produced, showing the decision of the Committee, marked la a similar manner, but show ing that the portion coloured red was more equally divided with the other districts.—(Considerable laughter was caused by the Hon. Member exhibiting these maps.) Mr. F. FRENCH repudiated the maps in question. Mr. SHAW thought there was no sufficient reason shown for the re-committal of the Bill. Strangers were ordered to withdraw. The lioise then divided, when there appeared— For the motion Against it Majority against it — 112 NEW WRITS. On the motion of Lord MARCUS HILL, new writs were ordered to be issued for the following places : PLYMOUTH. In the room of Lord EBRINGTON, appointed a Lord of the Treasury. LEITII DISTRICT OF BURGHS. In the room of Mr. A. RUTHERFORD, appointed Lord Advocate of Scotland. KIRCUDBRIGIIT. In the room of Mr. T. MAITLAND, appointed Soli citor-General for Scotland. SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY (GREENWICH RAILWAY TO CHILHAM, NEAR CANTER BURY, WITH BRANCHES TO SHEERNESS AND FAVERSHAM CREEK). On the motion for the consideration of the report on this Bill, Mr. FREWEN moved that the report be considered that day six months, as the railway when made would not accommodate the northern districts of Kent. Mr. HUME thought that the various proposed lines through the district had not been fairly brought before the Committee, and he should certainly support the amendment. Mr. PLUMPTRE was of opinion that the proposed railway would fully satisfy the wishes of the inhabitants of North Kent. The merits of the Bill had been fairly discussed before the Committee, and he should support the original motion. After a few words from Mr. PROTHEROE, Mr. FREWEN consented to withdraw his amend ment, and the report was tonsidered and agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be engrossed. MESSAGE FkOM THE LORDS. Messengers from the Lords announced that their Lordships had agreed to several Bills. (See Lords' re port.) 11-. CARDWELL moved that the House at its rising do adjourn until Monday next.

A Select Committee on this Bill met at eleven this morn ing, in Room A (New Houses of Parliament); Lord Lons dale in the chair. The Bill was unopposed, and after the examination of a few witnesses pro forma, the preamble was declared proved. The Committee, after reading and adjusting the clauses, rose before twelve o'clock. GROUP C. TurNG AND BANBURY. This Bill having been recommitted on the motion of the Duke of Buckingham, several members of the Committee as sembled this morning, but two of the Peers being absent, a quorum could not be formed, and an adjournment took place until Wednesday next. GROUP D. AXHOLME, GAINSEOROUGH, GOOLE, YORK, AND NORTH MIDLAND. The Committee assembled this morning, Lord Somers in the chair. Mr .Gambles, a merchant of Lincoln, was called, 'and devised chiefly to the amount of produce grown upon the course of the line. He said that the distance between Gainsborough and Hull was about 62 miles, of which as much as 20 miles of ground, occupying a space of five miles on each side of the course of the line, were occupied in the growth of potatoes and other similar produce. He be lieved the produce of flax was not less than 70,000 stones, and as many as from 120,000 to 150,000 tons of potatoes are grown in and exported from that district. Rev. Charles Dundas, rector of Epworth, stated that the roads in the neighbourhood were exceedingly bad, that there was only one public conveyance—that is, a coach on market days—to.Doncaster, which is seventeen miles, and toe cupies four hours. There is also a coach to Gainsborough. The Isle of Axholme contains 50,000 acres, of which 400 are potatoes ; and he believed that the produce would not go by the London and York line, but by water. The cost of the carriage by that route was 9s. a ton. Mr. Hutton, a magistrate of Lincolnshire, residing near West Butterwick, deposed generally to the great incon venience from going by the present means of conveyance. He had himself been as much as an hour-and-a-half in crossing the Humber from New Holland to Hull, the two places being nearly opposite to each other. Mr. John Wills, a farmer of Armine, near Goole, stated that there were about 20,000 acres of land in this district likely to be accommodated by the railway, of which about 5,000 acres are devoted to the growth of potatoes, and that 27,000 tons of potatoes are annually sent to London, and 13,000 a year to Leeds. The time occupied in the voyage to London varies from two days to five weeks, according to the season and the state of the navigation. The quantity sent to Lon don from the neighbourhood is certainly equal to 1,000 tons a week, and thought he should soon save ss, a ton in the car riage if the railway were made, Mr. Hinde, a farmer at Crowle, who occupies about 500 acTes of ground, stated that in the district of the line from Crowle to Belton there were 15,880 acres, of which 950 acres are in tato culture. Mr. Marshall, a farmer of Epworth, stated that the gross amount of live stock, wool, and other agricultural produce, is 23,171 tons, and by the Knottingley lino they now cost 14s. 6d. a ton to London. The general produce is about 8,000 tons of potatoes, and from 84 to 5 acres of oats, 6 quarters, and of beans 5 quarters. Mr. P. S. Johnston, of Belwood House, near Epworth, spoke generally as to the benefit to be derived from the new line. Mr. E. J. Atkinson, of Epworth, a landowner, stated that the whole amount of land occupied as a drained district by the line will be 100.530 acres, and that the total exports and imports are 202,463 tons, and the exports for the Isle of Axholine are 56,581 tons, warp land, of which the isle chiefly consists, being from 30s. to 51. an acre. The coals consumed are 24,680 tons per annum. On cross-examination by Mr. Sergeant IVRANGHA3f, the witness stated the average of the island was about 50,000 acres, which produced about 39,128 tons of exportable mat ter. 4,966 of the acres of the isle are under potatoes. The imports and exports of the isle are about 86,971 tons, and of marsh land 87,285 tons, of which the exports are 46,800 tons. The object of the Learned Sergeant was to show that no part of the produce from the Nottinghamshire district could possibly come upon this line; but it was not elicited at this stage. The Committee then adjourned till MondAy next. HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP XXXVIII. . -- LEEDS, WAKEFIELD, AND MIDLAND JUNCTION. Mr. Swannich, the engineer to this line, -was examined. The principal part to which the evidence was confined was the junction proposed to be effected wilb the Manchester and Leeds Railway. At this point of junction the gradient was lin 75, and the curve 3 furlongs. He did not think there would be any difficulty whatever in working the line with perfect safety, and so as to afford accom mo d a ti on t o th e traffic OR the line. _ _ Mr. Leather corroborated the evidence of Mr. Swannich. There was a difference in favour of this line over that of the opponents equal in tractive power to 314 miles of horizontal distance. He had adopted Mr. G. Stephenson's estimate, that 24 feet perpendicular required the same power to over come as •ne mile of horizontal length. He had taken the sum of the summits upon both lines, and comparing them together he had found this difference. GROUP XLII. The Committee on this group re-assembled to-day at two o'clock, and went seriatim through the clauses of the LIITIMPOOL AND (EXTENSION AND BRANCHES) the preamble of which had been proved, and then separated. GROUP XLVIII. THE TAPP VALE. The Committee met this day at twelve o'clock, Mr. Aldam, chairman. Mr. H. HILL addressed the Committee for a Mr. Vaughan, a landowner, whose property would be affected by the Bill. At the conclusion of the Learned Counsel's address, the room was ordered to be cleared. %% hen the parties were called in, The CHAIRMAN said. that the Committee would postpone giving their decision on the preamble of the Bill till Monday next. GROUP LIII. This Committee resumed at twelve o'clock this morning, in Room 26, New Houses of Parliament ; present, the Hon. E. Lascelles (in the chair), the Earl of Arundel and Surrey, Captain Dalrymple, and Mr. R. Clayton. SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM. The clauses of this Bill (as amended) were gone through and passed, and the report agreed to. BIRMINGHAM, WOLVERHAMPTON, AND DUDLEY. The Committee then went through the clauses of this Bill (as amended), all of which were agreed to, as well as the report. DERBYSHIRE, STAFFORDSHIRE, AND WORCESTER JUNCTION. This case was resumed by Sir John Rennie, engineer-in chief to the line, being called to substantiate the evidence given yesterday by his coadjutor, Mr. Remington. It being intimated to the Committee, at the conclusion of Sir John Rennie's evidence, that all opposition had been withdrawn, they decided that no further evidence was ne cessary. The preamble was then declared to be proved, the clauses gone through and passed, and the report agreed to. SHREWSBURY, WOLVERHAMPTON, AND SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE JUNCTION. The clauses of this Bill were then gone through and agreed to, as well as the report. This brought the Committee's labours to a close, and they accordingly dissolved. GROUP LXI. The Cemmittee met to-day at twelve o'clock, and were all day engaged on a canal Bill, which stood next in the group. STANDING ORDERS' COMMITTEES. HOUSE OF LORDS.

D ESPERATE CRASS.—On Monday evening, police officer George Foden, being on duty at the north end of Birkenhead, was sent for to oppose the terrors of the law to the half-drunken violence of a brute, who was cruelly beat ing his mother and sister. On the officer reaching the spot, the ruffian turned round, struck the representative of her Majesty a violent blow, and immediately took to his heels. The officer, having formerly been a sort of champion in the pedestrian world, immediately followed, and a splendid race ensued. Neither the culprit nor the officer seemed to have the best of it, when the former, after several artful dodges, turned short into Corporation-road, and made a desperate attempt to escape by leaping the immense excavation now making in that street for the construction of a sewer. He jumped short, but fell on his feet, and speedily scrambled out ; his pursuer was not so fortunate, for having made the longest leap and cleared the drain, he was unable to keep his footing, and fell backwards. On the chase being re sumed, the ruffian had a few yards start; but finding that his pursuer was yet on his trail', he took to the water, and contrived to escape by going through Wallasey Pool, like a genuine moss-trooper. This was too much for the courage of the policeman, who, being a raw recruit, was afraid to spoil his new suit, and the fellow made good his retreat.-- Liverpool Courier. _ Chevalier Bunsen on Thursday visited the New Zea land House, to inspect a sideboard which has been made expressly by the command of the King of Prussia, from the rare and beautiful woods imported from the colony by Mr. Levein. His Excellency expressed his entire satisfaction with the novel and remarkably fine effect produced by the combination of these choice woods, and too much praise cannot be bestowed upon Mr. Levein, who has designed and executed this beautiful piece of furniture, which the directors of the company kindly permit the public to inspect at their offices. / • . • , - = / PRICE SD. ~/ -~ ~~ r THE NEW ADMINISTRATION. (From the Times of yesterday.) With a promptitude and a facility that contrasts strangely with the protracted an d f ru i tless negotiations of last Deem): ber, Lord John Russell's Ministry is already arranged. Our readers may depend on the following list; which, though agreeing to a considerable extent with that given in our columns last Tuesday, " as far as it goes," presents some im portant differences, which the history of the intervening days may possibly account for : THE CABINET. Lord Chancellor President of the Council Marquis of LANSDOWNE. _Lord Privy Seal Home-office Foreign -office ... Viscount PALMERSTON. Colonial-office First Lord of the Treasury Lord Jolts RUSSELL. Chancellor of the Exchequer Mr. CIIARLES WOOD. Chancellorof the Duchy of Lan 't caster j Lord CastrßELL. Paymaster-General Mr. MACAULAY. Woods and Forests .... Postmaster. General Marq. of CLANRICARDE. Board of Trade Earl of CLARENDON. Board of Control Chief Secrary for Ireland Admiralty Earl of AUCKLAND. NOT IN THE CABINET. • Lord-Lieutenant o f I re l an d Earl of BES DOROUGIL Commander-in-Chief Master-General of Ordnance As the Cabinet, of course, professes to be only a revival or the old Whig Cabinet, it.admits of no other criticism than a general inquiry into the merits of such a revival. Before we drop a word on that subject, it may be as well to re late briefly wha:ever has come to our knowledge of - a nature to throw light on the construction of the Cabinet as it now stands. W e believe we may say that Lord John Rtis sell has spared no pains to increase its strength by the ad dition of new elements. On receiving her Majesty's com mands to form a Ministry he sought an interview with Sir Robert Peel. The ex-Premier received him with every sign of cordiality, gave him a general promise of assistance, and undertook that he would not oppose any measures Lord John might bring forward, simply because they proceeded from that quarter. To this he added expressions, the force of which may have been overrated, but which implied the absence of all wish for a return to power. On this, it is said, Lord John ventured to ask for what he considered a fair pledge of Sir Robert's sincerity. He requested that the ex- Minister would acquiesce in three of his late colleagues, whose names our readers will probably anticipate—Lord Dal housie, Lord Lincoln, and Mr. S. llerbert, accepting seats in the new Cabinet. To this Sir Robert is said to have replied, that he felt unwilling to interfere in so delicate a matter, that he would offer no opposition, but could certainly not recommend a step which would be liable to unfavourable comment, as indicating a too great tenacity of office on the part of those youthful statesmen. As we yesterday intimated to our readers, Lord John Russell returned on Wednesday from Osborne House, charged with an expression of her Majesty's wishes that the Duke of Wellington would still continue in command of the army. To this request his Grace yielded a dutiful compliance, in conformity with his views under somewhat similar circumstances in 1827. At the same time he said that he considered his political life now ended, and that he should now never open his lips in Parliament, except on subjects connected with his office. Lord John Russell hereupon felt himself encouraged to make the same request he had previously made with imperfect success to Sir R. Peel. The Duke at first returned much the same answer as his late colleague. He was subsequently, however, induced to give his consent to a letter, of which Lord John sent copies to the above-mentioned tlftee members of the retiring Cabinet. Their replies left Lord John Russell no hope of their assistance as members of his Government—for the present at least. Some of our readers will possibly be grieved to find that a Cabinet which has risen into power on the back of the measure carried by the League, should bear so little outward sign of sympathy with that body. In the first place, however, they will discover some pledge that their misgivings are not founded in fact, in the circumstance that Lord Grey now views in a more favourable light the difficulties that led him to break with the Cabinet attempted last December. The question, too, of offering a seat to Mr. Cobden received, we are informed, long and repeated discussion. Of course the admission of a great and triumphat agitator to the councils of her Majesty and the Executive Government of the nation was a proposal likely to present some unfavourable aspects to persons such as Ministers, Whig or Conservative, usually are. We have reason to believe that no un becoming jealousy was displayed. There are cir cumstances, however, which will occur to all our readers as offering at least a temporary impediment in the way of that gentleman's acceptance of office, His business, it is well known, is one peculiarly dependent on personal superintend ence, so much so that Mr. Cobden himself considers a period of political retirement necessary to make amends for the loss he has suffered by his generous devotion to a public cause, and on the same ground a magnificent subscription has been set on foot by his friends and admirers. However, a communication has, we believe, been made by Lord John Russell, with the acquiescence of his intended colleagues, ex pressing his deep sense of Mr. Cobden's services and conse quent claims, and conveying also the prospective offer of a seat in the Cabinet, contingent on Mr. Cobden finding him self some day in sufficient health and wealth to discharge that great responsibility without danger to his life or for tune. Proposals have also, we have reason to believe, beer made to two other prominent members of the League; and, although in one case they were, also from private reasons, unsuccessful, it is not improbable that at least one gentleman who has distinguished himself by his public advocacy of corn-law repeal will enter Lord John Russell's Government. The Cabinet which has resulted from these nego tiations and failures of negotiation is not more aristocratic than Cabinets usually are, and therefore need not on that ac count excite the suspicions of the most thorough-going friend of the people. That it does not contain more of the popular element is clearly not owing to any lingering spirit of exclu sion in the leader. He has done his best to give it a compre hensive character, but found himself limited to the personnel of which it was inevitable that a Whig Ministry should be composed. It deserves, what it will probably obtain, a fair trial at the hands of all parties. We are not aware of any particular objection to which it is liable, unless it be the Right Hon. Baronet selected for that very important and arduous place, the Board of Control. Surely it was not necessary to inflict on us, by his return to that office, the painful recollections of his former most unfortunate official career, especially when his qualifications are such as to as sure us that his failure was something more than misfortune. MINISTERIAL MOVEMENTS. Lord John Russell had interviews yesterday morning with the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Earl of Clarendon, and Vis count Palmerston. Earl Grey called on Lord John Russell yesterday. At four o'clock a very numerous meeting of the leaders of ie Whig party took place at the residence of Lord John Among those present were, the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Earl of Clarendon, the Earl of Auckland, Earl Grey, the Earl of Besborough, Lord Cottenham, Sir John Cain Hob house, Sir George Grey, the Right Hon.

JULY 2.—Her Majesty left Osborne Palace for London this day, steaming out of the harbour in the Fairy yacht, and through the mercantile fleet (about twenty sail, princi pally large American ships loaded with sugar). The absence of the Court is expected to be short, as the whole of the horses have been left behind, and all the carriages with the exception of her Majesty's and the two dressers' vans. On former occasions the horses and carriages have also been . taken. When Sir Robert Peel left Osborne Palace the whole of the Royal Family went to the beach to see him off. The sons and daughters of the Emerald Isle ought to L. proud of her Majesty's having chosen a wet-nume for the young Princess from amongst the daughters of Erin.
