The object of this Company is to give to'the pnbl:c, in its inter cearse with the North of Enron the full benefit of the improved sYstern of transit for mails, passengers, and-goo-is, which the great •• speed snd comtined arrangement of the railway system now render • Practicable. • 4n immediate exten , lon of exis'ing means of transit is necessary to meet the large and increasing Importation of cattle, fruit, and all • agricultural products, from the North of Europe, to supply the vast Consumption of the central and manufacturing districts of, England ; tae great and increasing export trade in manufactured goods and materials from these districts, which are sent down by railway to the coast. requires the same improved facilities for its transport •• across the Korth Sea. To meet these demands, it• is intended to combine and establish a rapid and more f squent communicatten between London; al gulches ' • ter , Liverpool, and all the principal parts of England, and the wind , Pal ports and cities of the north •of Europe, by means of express teame's running in connexion with express trains. •• The ports on the cast coast of England, to and from which the Coiripany's steamers will, in the first lestance, arrive and depart, are Harwich, Lowestoft, and Great Grimsby. The two former situate near the entrance of the Thames. and on the extreme eastern mast of Great Britain, and in direct communication, by railways, with London and all the south and east parts of England, the latter more conveniently situate for 3fancbester, Sheffield, Liverpool, and all • places in the north and west. Other ports of departure will be added to these as the public con venience may require. From these ports express steamers will run in combination with express trains, by which will be conveyed malls, passengers, specie, and merchandise, from London _and the south-eastern parts of Eng land, and from Manchester, Livers col, aaa an parry or the north any West of nreat'Britain, for Rotterdam, Antwerp, Ostend, Hamburgh, l lr etnen.

Tao company, then, were the elephant. They had got a crystal ele phant, but nothing to feed him with, for the park in which he was pasturing was taken away. But they had yet faith in one another and in Englishmen. They said to each other "We have no fears for our elephant. We will give it food." And we applied to the people of Eng land whether th e elephant should be fed or not, the people of England said the elephant should be fed, and the meeting might depend upon it that when the people of England put down 500 , 0001. to perpetuate the Crystal Palace, the Projectors of it bad not reckoned in vain. —(Hear, hear.) Some persons said that the new Crystal Palace did not deserve so well of the people as its prede- • tensor, because it was a commercial undertaking. But it was because we were a nation of shopkeepers, and be cause it was a commercial undertaking, that we were proud of it. We were proud of it because we did not be lieve that anything not of the nature of a commercial undertaking, and which did not stand upon its own bottom, would last. They believed that this would be a self-supporting institution; and he spoke the words of so berness when he said that they had as much the public ad vantage as their own pecuniary profit in view when they invested their money en the Crystal Palace. He believed this to be the feeling of every shareholder, and that it would pay a handsome dividend in addition; but the Crystal Palace and its managers would not descend from the high moral and social objects they had in view to pander either to a lower taste or to a lower morality in order to make it pay. There was not one of the pro prietors who would not consign every halfpenny be had in the undertaking rather than that the people should suffer in the character of the undertaking for the mere purpose that it should pay 5 per cent.—(Hear, hear.) But the directors believed it would pay, simply because they believed in the character of the millions, and that the millions with their shillings would be the support of They believed, therefore, they were the undertaking. merely the guardians of the public property by nom after they had been mencing this undertaking, and that _ _ remunerated who had risked the loss of their money, all that remained over should be consigned to the improve mentgreat sehools of national art and elevation of the "and national industry .—( Hear, hear.) The first task, as ho had intimated, was the getting of the money to feed the elephant, and the next to find a place where to keep him. This they had almost failed to aecomplish, and would have done but for an ealightened and disin terested gentleman connected with the 'Brighton Railway, the proprietor of the beautiful park in which they were now assembled. That, gentleman came forward in the last - ey , when they were in a difficulty , and said, " although emergen ' ' mind I had made uP IDY to spend the remainder of days here, I would rather give it up than you should be without a site, and you shall have the park."—(chrbe directors were willing to pay him a large hrs.) The at be was unwilling to accept it, price rt for the land, b and not to have the amount as fixed by an arbitrator, P b n e of, one farthing snore.—(Herr.) Thus the comp any d got the ele phant into the park. But this w a s not all. The elephant was old—they wanted a new one -- a nt i a miller w as re quired to grind the old animal into a new one.—(Laugh ter.) They found such a miller in tho person of their old friend Sir Joseph Paxton, and at once they threw ihemselves upon the resources of his genius. When the „Ad Crystal Palace stood, in ell its beauty, in Hyde emir, ever) body said it was impossible to go further, end that it they tried to produce anything finer they would fail. He felt of that opinion coo, when the Crye cal Palace was in Hyde-park; but as soon as Sir Joseph Paxton had shown the new creations of his genius, and that they were grander and more perfect than the old tee, as the old one was grander and more perfect .han our ideas of such structures before, then he did not regret the removal of the old palace from Hyde•park. Thus another impossibility was accom :fees:e:lagthllatn plished. The genius of Sir Joseph Paxton showed they were not wrong in placing confidence in each other, and, having that confidence, in going en and prospering.— (Hear, hear.) Another impossibility was said to lie in the re-erection of the building. But their old friends, Messrs. Fox and Henderson, assured them that as cer tain as the old Crystal Palace in Hyde-park was opened by the day named, the sat of May, 1851, so surely' would the new Crystal Palace, in all its glory, be opened in that park on the Ist of May, 1853.—(Hear, hear.) Thus another impossibility was aceoMpiished. Under such circumstances he felt they were not wrong in trusting to each other, to the enterprise of British c. maiercial men, and to the British people, to produce a far more glorious structure than that .of 1851,—(Hear, hear.) What they eeiahed to hay..h.slioved was ibis* ..4.- man ever entered upon auy duty more sincerely desirous of uccomplishingethe highest aims—moral, religious, Recite% cad aesthetical—than the promoters of this under taking.—(Hear.) After a few mere observations, Mr. Russell concluded by proposing the health of " The Visi tors," which was received with loud cheers. Sir C. LYELL was called upon, and returned thanks for the toast in a few observations, which were but im perfectly heard. Sir Charles expressed his conviction chat this Exhibition might be made,_ with regard to all ma tters of art and science, what the British Museum, the Geological Museum, and Kew-gardens were with regard to the arrangement oT animate, plants, and minerals. No attempt had yet been made, geographically, to arrange the various manufacturing and other products of the world; but in the building about to he erected this would be done, and it would be attended with most important practical resulte.—(Hear.) Mr. PETO had the permission of the chairman to pro pose a toast, which would be received with great plea. sure—' The health of the Chairman and Directors of the Crystal Palace Corepany."—(Loud cheers.)

I D fact, world-famed Theproapcheuetriau f •cn a lisedd. together gravely to pro ve to demonstratioe t h at th e consumption of air by th e myriads of visitors to t h e Exhibition Building, t en di ng to produce a vacuum in the interior, would ease the e x t ernal pressure of t h e at mosphere to fret the buildi ng with its gewgaws an d men of se' ence and risi ng architects then o op a i r r c ontents half way to th e Antipodes. the We e declined m and itirOerinationt OrofeTring rather to deal-- with - those' more practical geniuses WHB - compldted and opened the Exhibition Building on th e I st of May, 1851. Of the fate, of that building, and the m eans ta k en to preserve it upon its original sit e , our readers are all aware; and w e apprehend th a t, a f ter the recent improvements which will be carried out i n t h e b uilding upon its, present site n c o c f lined give in cur adhesion ex c l us i vely to to science at Sydenham, few persons will regret the decison of the Government, or be displeased that the affection of Lore Seymour for " the favourite'pump," or the aristocratic tendencies of Lord John Manners should have suc ceeded in aceenaplishing that which neither winds nor storms had been able to street—viz., the removal of the building from Hyde-park. • .It is not necessary far us to detail the various steps by which the Crystal Palace Company have become pos sessed of the material of the Exhibition building, aao which, under the magic genius of a Paxton, a Wyatt, and a J'oneb, will &Lolly assume the Proportions and appearance, which shall justly entitle it to the designatiot, of the New Crystal Palsce; suffice it to say that yester day was 'Bel, cted as the 'day upon which the first column of the new edifice should 'be' erected. A special train was accordingly provided for the conveyance - of between three and four hundred visitors to witness the ceremony, who were assured, by means of printed programmes, that conveyances would be in waiting to convey visitors to the park from the Sydeattam station. Right merrily the train proceeded to Sydenham, and three hundred and fifty passengers alighted there, and rushed frantically to look for' the conveyances. There must be some mistake; nothing 'was to be found but a travelling " tioker'S cant." The train had better go on to Aoerley. The poesengerf returned their seats amid sundry misgivings as to the tire( that the next down train would be due. Ultimately Auer ley stat i on was reached, and, animated with that neeiec: live love of " selt" common to Englishmen, the road o the park was reached, when, to! and behold, one "Brix ton omnibus," "licensed to carry twelve itieide," arni an indefinite number outride. It was clear to demon stration that wither legally nor physically could 350 visitors be ceuveyed in the one " bast" and the remain ing animated " bales of bilk" and " chests of bullion,", according to the phraseology of the London and Brighton directorate, made their way to the entrance co the park, about a mile distant from - the station, where the expected vehicles and their drivers were cnitetly re 'posing themselves in the shade. Having thus escaped the dangers of the rail and the perils of the road, the visitors were most cordially received by the chairman and directors, of the compaty, sifter which reception they proceeded to a second teat, where an opportunity was afforded of examining the plans and drawings et the now hulloing and park and gardens. The general outline of the plans has already been stated by us, and we need only say that the drawin g s and models were now examined with the greatest admiration. A. card-board model, showing the elevation 0 1 . the building, with its three traneepts and cir cular arched nave, was universally admired, as was also a view of the interior of the nave, around the columns and girders of which were most tastefully entwined beautiful climbing plants; while the palm and other tropical plants appeared to afford , a most agreeable and roeffrtehsehinggallsehraiedse. w , a l s 'h a e ls g o ro e u x u g d m p i l n a e n d o w f i t t b h a b co u n iT i. i a n ic g r lt o i4 the exhibit ? interest; and theespace set apes Joe- 13 on of articles Of merinfacture and art a +- as carefully conned tb t e e In the laze e m G a r ti e y a t w E h who h h i a b d i ti a o l n rc , a a d n y d achieved u.hl wer e tli: o. i r ai l n an p r r e e l p s a i r n ed stand forward in supp or t e r , Br i t i s h industry.t' walking* examination of the plans and drawings, sho r t r h l t e ' over the grounds, after two o'clock, the ladiei commenced occupyingd seats assigned for them, round a apae i r e t s area he future off by ropes, and indicating the site () ! t second great centred transept; the gentlemen forming a dedb ece • Y line behind the ladies.

He said that in proposing the toast of " Suc cess to the Vrystal Palace," he should he obliged to trespass a little longer on their time than tads usual in occasions of that description. But he did so with a fall conviction that all who were assembled there felt a warm and deep interest in the project to initiate which , they were then assembled. That was uo mere f :shoes emnine mention in which all but complimentary remarks would be out of piece, but a meeting for business .as well Mt pleasure, and one part of the business of the day was , to expla i n as shortly as he could the objects which he had already told them at the inauguration the cot piny hid in contemplation. In the first place, he must WI -them that the company did not mean to yak for patronage until they wero in a position to command it; but at the same time it must be distinctly understood that the wise an d good of the realm bad not, been backward in their e xpressions of sympathy and encOUregemeet. — (fic ar, hear.) In proof of that he might 'appeal to the nume rous letters they had received, among Which he might mention there was one from the Noblo Earl at the head of the Goveroment i and another from the vehrran reformer Mr. isluute.—(Loud cheers,) (Tho Chair man having read-extracts from the letters ot the E trl of Derby and Mr. Hume proceeded ) To threse he m ight add a list of names distinguished in the Church, in polities. in science. and in art, showing 'abet Impen d:ell rivalry nor professional jealousy prevented their sympathising with a natienal undertaking.--'(Cheers.) lie m ig ht go through a long lis t, b ut would merely men tion the names of three distinguished foreigners ' who ha d ac tively co-operated in the Exhibition of 1851; and he did so hec4,116,3 ,hts, hoped that the eff ec t s o f that Exhibition 'might to some extent be repeatorl; and that the opening of the n , Av palace of the people might b© the signal for a renewal of friendly rivalry with fo all parts of the world, reigners fromand the spread of eneghtment, and the promotion of peace and good will amongst manhind.— Cheers. He had, therefore, the greatest satisfaction in anoo)tibeing t he adherence of Chevalier Hansen, M. Van' de Weyer; and M r. Abbott Lawrence to their project. As all present w ere conver sant with the history of the Great Exhibition' of 1851, ' ( it would he idle to detain them with any retrospect; and he would simplyhay that the idsa of that Exhibition or i g inated id the noble and pLilosophic csnception of the highest personage in the realm matt to the Sove reign, end was developed into aviorld's wonder and at . traction without pae al l el . — (Loud cleeers.) He c ould not refrain here Calling at•ention to the almost providential ' circumstances which had co-operated in bringing about that Magnificent rohilt. ' The accidental discovery of a water lily of gigantic 'dimension's in another hemisphere had, set his friend Sir Joseph Paxton about devising means' of !leasehold accommodation for the Victoria re,gia, and the plan he devised for that accommodation expanded into the idea of affording, accommodation under a crystal roof for the assembled nations of the universe. —(Lotel cheers.) Wt htn that unrivalled exhibition had hlone its work; when the timo bad come, as in the case of all sublunary grandeur, that it must die, a bitter feel ing of regret was felt that that which had been a great opportunity for the instruction of the people should pass away without an enduring record.—(Cheers.) That idea took a variety of ehepes. In the fi rst place, it took the time, and had been somewhat disposed 'Of this country, to preserve the Crystal Palace on its original - site. That attempt did not succeed, and for wantsth e L Legislature s t l h a e t ur people. for their ßa t e x great peri n cindifference s a e d d c shape of pressure from without upon the Legislature good reason..

With respect strongly that there were some they could not but feel often addressed to English, grounds for the reproach better than most men how to weigr' i t c hat while -they knew and create obj ec t s o f industry, they knew worse than an selves.—(Cheera and laughter.) y ho ltm w u t s o t amuse i them that in that respect they were inferior'etaodmitted y foreign nations, to whom in other respects they wermeasu perior. it must be admitted that amidst the s t r ikin g and noble qualities of the labouring men of England .there was a slight deficiency in that polish, and those aesthetic qualifications which refined the character of some nations of the continent. It was not true accord ing to the representation of Englishmen in the French vaudeville, that they went about with bull-dogs at their heels - and halters round their wives' necks—(Loud laughter)—but still they must admit that the popular exaggeration was founded upon some faint and remote degree of verisimilitude.—(Hear, hear.) It must be ad mitted, then, that if they could furnish the masses of the people with a rather more ennobling recreation than r they could, find on Windmill-hill or at Greenwich fair, or worse than.ehlier, in the gin palace, tkey would have gone a great way-towards advancing to perfection the character of the Engtish nation.—(Hear, hear.) The character of the nation bad even in his recollection made great advances, more especially among the labourite: -classes, and be believed the time had now come whet the gentlemen of England must look to themselves i they wished to keep their plece,—(llear, bear)—if they wanted to keep in advancein .all the qualities that went to melte the perfect Englishmen.—(Cheers.) -He bad no donbt but that they would do so , and that. while elevating the character of the masses, they shout , see. the aristocracy elevating themselves to still creates heights and snore intellechial refinements,—(Cheers.; It appeared to him that the true doctrine of equality was, not dragging down the high to the level of the low bat elevating the low to the level of the high.—(Loue cheers.) He did say, speaking from a pretty intimati acquaintance with the habits and character of the working classes, and he believed his friend, Mr. Peto, who eat on his right hand, would boar him out in the assertion, that in all the sterling qualities of English men they found no deficiency in the labouring man — that in integrity, and even the more chivalrous feelings of honour and self denial, there,was no deficiency in that class of people, and that all they wanted to raise them to the level of their more fortunate and refined country men was the application of that maxim which they all remembered in the Latin Grammar: " Ingenuas didicisse fideliter artes Eniollit mores nee sinitesse fen:a." A littlei.efinement, a little polish, such as he hoped would be communicated by the marvels of the Crystal Palace, would, he honestly believed, render the mass of our working population as near perfection as it was pos sible to look for anything in this sublunary sphere. — (dear, hear.) As the means of recreation, the whoh, question depended on the temptation they could hold out to those classes to visit the palace. As regarded the temptation to visit, he thought that the experience of the Exhibition of 1851 fully confuted the notion that the people of England were unworthy of enlightened re- • creation, and that to offer it to them was only throwing pearls- to s wine. They saw three millions of visitors, ie a period of less than six mon a ths, conducting themselves nd such conduct was the with the greatest decorum, the calumny to which be had adverted , best refutation of it they made a place worthy of and the best proof that h would flock to it in myriads. the people of England, t y e (Cheers.)

Another illuatra tion might be 'tend in the.ir process of the cotton menu factnre, in which, without reading crabbed books, or in relying themselves in thodust and whirl of a Manchester cotion-mill, they alig,lit see the manufacture at a glan ce , from the moment the raw material we nt in until it emerged in the beautiful gauze and muslin with which so many of the fair ladies around him wore decorated. As far, then. as instruction was concerned there would be no deficiency in the new Crystal Palace.
