The Royal Commission, on the contrary, as trustees of the funds collected for the Exhibition, did not scruple to screw everything down as tightly as possible; and they had in the acting members of their Executive two men singularly well qualified to control the extrava- gance of the accomplished artists and clever projec• tors by whom they were surrounded. For the labour performed, therefore, the economical management of the recent spectacle in Hyde -park is probably unpa ralleled in this country; and we sincerely hope that in that respect the Crystal Palace Company will not be too self-confident to imitate a safe and prudent example. Magnificence and prodigality i n th e pre sent day are not necessarily synommous ; and even the favour of the million may be overestimated. —Times. JOHN BENTLEY, Secretary.

Being enrolled UNDER THE FRIL,DLY SOCIETIES' ACTS, the sum assured can be secured to the WIDOW, WIDOWER, or CHILDREN Without payment of PROBATE and LEGACY DUTY, or the risk of IOSS by unfortunate circumstances, or the reverses of trade. 2. The mutual principle of assurance and division of profits every five years, assurers of three years partici, ating, 3. An invested capital and a large annual income, offering a perfect guarantee. 4. Claims paid immediately under discount, and all policies indis putable, except in case of absolute fraud. 5. Loans ou the security of policies of assurance. 6. Policies can be assigned, and the assignments registered. To Clerks in particular this Association, from its Benevolent Fund attached, with an invested capital, offers benefits combined with Life Assurance which no other office in the kinder', can present, as will be seen on reference to the prospectuses, which can be obtained at the office in London, or from the numero us agents in the provinces.By theorde r r H o lp Blloz Y arNdR BYRNE, Secret ar y . , 42, Moorgate-street, Aug. 4, 1852. I ,ll, 3: isy Y the CJ " age of I Chivalry V is gone, and that L of Economists sts and Calculators The A R vmaca r Calculators has succeeded." The glory of the age con sisted in the attire of the knight being suitable for hiszisop or military avocations ; the age of chivalry is therefore restored by designs in costume, introduced and perfected by E. SON. Stylish fit, comfor t in wear, novelty in materials, a nd splen dourd in finish are som e of the features of E. MOSES and SO N'S Sporting Dress. As Economists, they have reduced the price to the most reasonabl e scale, and as Calculators, have attained the most desirable elevation from a hich they supply magnificent Dress to Ladies, Gentlemen, or Mechanics. Coats, light and waterproof, gems of modern art, useful but not cumbersome, agreeable wear in shower or suns ine, these Coats are enclosed in a neat case, or may be put into the pocket of an ordinary Dress Coat ; these ay introductory to hundreds ot new styles to be presented by E. MOSES and SON for Autumn WllO SHOULD EMIGRATE, AND WHO SHOULD OUTFIT? The capitalist, the industrious, the agriculturalist, the mechanic, in fact every man who deserves to participate in wealth and possess property, but labour must preceed enjoyment, the journey must go before the possession, and such articles as are needed for both are called an Outfit. E. ISIOS'ES and SON name a few of their qualifi cations, and let the Emigrant judge " who should Outfit." They have an immense wholesale department, where capitalists may make the most eligible investments, and where Goods suitable for Australia, or any other country may be procured at such prices as will afford the amplest profit on every purchase. From this de partment families emigrating will derive the highest advantages. They keep a stock ot Hosiery, Boots, and shoes, &c., for the " Diggings," and Dress of every description expressly prepared with the most accurate acquaintance with any voyage or climate, on this the Emigrant may implicitly depend. Many years experience in Outfitting on the largest scale has put them in possession of an exclusive power in procuring, manufac facturing, and arranging Outfits, to which they appropriate a sepa rate department in their gigantic establishment, where every Emi grant at once sees the purposes they are intending to serve. " Who then can Outfit" like E. MOSES and SON. Full Lists of Outfits, and all information relative to sailing of vessels and cost of passage may be had on application, or post free to any part of the kingdom. SPECIAL NOTICE, the Establishments will be closed on TUES DAY and WEDNESDAY next, September 14 and 15, resuming business on THURSDAY morning, September 16, at Seven o'clock. CAUTION.—E.

This Company is established to introduce Railways into Upper India. The First Section, about 130 miles in length, commencing at Allahabad, at the confluence of the Ganges and Jumna, will terminate at Cawnpore. The future Sections will carry on the Line to Agra, Delhi, Lahore, and the Indus. Allahabad is an ancient and populous city, of great fame and im portance in the East. Crowds of Pilgrims resort to its sacred shrines and temples—it is the entrepOt for the traffic by the Steamers and the larger Country Craft—and is one of the principal Civil and Military Stations. Cawnpore is the largest Military Station in India. There is, both by Steamers and Country Craft, a continuous per manent water communication between Calcutta and Allahabad. The yearly tonnage of the Lower Ganges is 1,500,000, by the Country Craft alone. The number of Passengers is also very great. Deep water ceases at Allahabad, and consequently...it is.xt-tnisimportant city that the real difficulty: Snot expense of transit begin. The sand banks of the Upper Ganges, and the sharp ledges of rock of the Jumna, r.tidering the navigation by even the smaller Country Craft slow and precarious. The insurance of merchandise and property from Agra to Allaha bad by the river route, in consequence of the danger and diftl,loty of the navigation, is as high as from Calcutta to England, the distance in the one case being 300, in the latter 15,000 miles. . Above Allahabad, notwithstanding the detective river navigation, and the rude and expensive laud carriage, which costs from 4d. to Sci. per ton per mile, moving at the slow rate of ten miles in twenty four flours, there is an officially ascertained traffic of above 1,000,000 tons, and a land passen2er traffic by various conveyances exceeding 100,000 per annum, besides passengers by boats, and about 300,000 travellers on foot. _ . Having a great and navigable river connecting Calcutta and Alla habad, a Railroad would, by beginning at the latter city, and pro ceeding by Agra and Delhi to Lahore, establish a steam communica ton from Calcutta through the fertile and populous Dooab in the North-West Provinces, " occupying the great line of Indian traffic with Central and Upper Asia." This is the great line of Military as well as Commercial intercourse, more than three-fourths of the Bengal Army being cantoned above Allahabad, and almost all emer gent movements of troops and stores taking place to the north-west, or in advance of that town. One of the Directors of this Company, so far back as 1846, in a work of his on Indian Railways,* stated that he had seen " no large portion of territory present the like facilities for the introduction of a Railway, as from Allahabad to Delhi." " This line would have no rival, for the river Steamers, instead of competing with it, would form a powerful basis, and keep up a con tinuous communication between the Railway and Calcutta, and our great Military Stations and Magazines at Allahabad, Cawn pore, Agra, and Delhi, would all be in close communication with each other, and, by means of the steamers, have a free and rapid access to Calcutta " Subsequently, the Indian Railway Commission confirmed, from actual survey, the accuracy of this opinion ; and still more recently, Major J. I'. Kennedy, late Director of the Railway Department to the Government of India, in his report to the Marquis of Dalhousie, Governor-General, expressed himself as follows :—" Between Alla habad and Delhi there is no engineering question of difficulty what ever, as the beautiful fiat bed (extending for several hundred miles in the direction of the Line, in the Dooab between the rivers Ganges and Jumna), with its numerous commercial towns, offers, perhaps, the most singularly inviting district for laying down a railway that can be found in the world ; free as it is from inundation, from hills, from river-crossings, and road-crossings, in short, from any impedi ment, and almost every ordinary source of expenditure in railway construction." Slight as the whole amount of labour is that would be required to carry a single line of railroad from Allahabad to Lahore and the Indus, it is the intention of this Company to proceed in a gra dual manner, opening short sections, having an important town at either terminus. The route consists of component parts, each complete in itself, pos sessing a local as well as a thorough traffic. The present capital of the Company has been fixed at a sum which will leave a sufficient margin for future contingencies, and the capi tal for future sections will be raised frOrn time to time as may be necessary. From the paramount importance of this Railway to the good government and prosperity of India, the Directors have every hope of obtaining from the Hon. East India Company the same terms and conditions as have been already accorded to similar undertakings, the existing traffic securing a return on the capital invested far be yond the amount of any guarantee that could be required. The Directors are hereby empowered to treat for and make such arrangements with the Court of Directors and the Board of Control as to them may seem beneficial to the Company, as well for securing a guaranteed dividend from the East India Company, as in regard to territorial concessions. The Deposit to be paid on the allotment of Shares will be Two Shillings per Share, being after the rate of Ten Shilling% per cent., the amount prescribed by the Act 7 and 8 Vict., c. 110. A Deed embodying the Provisions required by that Act, and such as the Directors may consider proper for the regulation of the Com pany, and for carrying out the objects in view, will be prepared ; and if any Shareholder should fail to execute the same for One Month after the publication of a notice in the " Times" newspaper, calling on the Proprietors so to do, his Shares, with the Deposits paid thereon, will become forfeited to the use of the Compnny. Application will be made for a Charter of Incorporation or an Act of Parliament, limiting the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of their Subscriptions.

The vast tide of emigration which has recently flowed from Eng land and Scotland into the Australian colonies, composed of indi viduals possessing in the aggregate a large amo un t o f capital ; the recent discoveries of their great mineral wealth, and the incr ease of their agricultural and commerci al resources, render the extension of sound Banking Establishments , under cautious management, a sub ject of the greatest importanc e to the fut ure welfare of those valuab le and rising colonies.

The selection of a Colonial Insp ec t or will receive the most careful attention of the Directors. The intercourse between Great Britain and Australia has now be come certain and regular, by the establishment. of direct steam com munication with that country, and the Directors in London will thus be enabled to exercise an efficient control over the local mana gers of the branches to be established in Australia. The high ra'e of interest obtainable in Australia for advances on good security, promises a profitakle employment for the capital of the Company whilst the impulse given to commercial undertakings by the recent gold discoveries, will secure an ample return upon the varieus branches of business to be carried on by the Company at its Local Establishments. condouncltyingtwo establishments in England banging The great field open for this Company's operation s may be fromunder stoodat es the fact, employed there em th p a l t din are aff Ars with the important colonies of Victoria and New South Wales, and these are eminently successful, and are realising large profits for the share holders. rly the following results report of the Bank of New appears from the asatledt 21st April, half-yearly that have been realised by that well-conducted establishment. the Directors state that the profit and loss account will enable them to declare, not only the usual dividend, at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, but an extra dividend, at the rate of 10 per cent. for the half year, to be applied in aid of the extension of the capital. eh d and have carried the es r v t e h d e y Passed 2,4951. 14s. sd. to ; In addition to the above the Directors state that th ey have set apart 5,0001. to defray the cost of freight and insurance on th e ship whole of the present office furniture account, and th e balance of pre liminary expenses to profit and loss aceount ; and, aft er a ll th ese ap propriations, of augmentation c o infrom m England;of the havethatreserved it appears from the report that the sum of 1,738/. 78.7 d. remained to be carried forward to a new account for equalising fu ture dividends.

July 8 1852. , Os.; . the LATE FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. The coroner's inquest concerning the frightful acci dent on the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire R a il w ay, terminated late on Saturday night, at which time the cause of the calamity remained as great a mys tery as at the commencement of the inquiry. The lead ing facts may be briefly recapitulated. Last Wednesday evening the Great Northern passenger train which leaves Sheffield at 9.10 P.N. ran off the line, at a place which is t hree-quarters of a m ile short of Woodhouse junction, and better than four miles from Sheffield. The line curves at that point, and is upon a steep embankment upwards of thirty feet high. When running at about thirty miles an hour the train suddenly ran off the rails, and the engine, rushing across the down rails, sped vio lently down the embankment on the opposite side. The rest of the train (two passenger carriages, two goods vans, s o w legsi n g and a break) fell down the other embankment with a fearful crash. The passengers escaped unhurt, hut the g uard (Charles Tuc kwood ) was killed on the spot, aid goat the frightful d i e d to o r n tu th re e , fo h l i l having been almost roasted off b y the en g ine fire, the eng i n e haying fallen upon him. (Samuel The coroner's inquest wa s o p ened on Frida y , an d was of more than ordinary interest, inasmuch as the cause d t h a e y, e e a g f t i e n r e- o d u r ff i v e e r i r u of the accident was altogether unaccounted for. It was reported that the line was out of gunge, but the evi dence given below sets that question at rest. The most important witness was William Leah, the stoker, who said that all went on right till he observed some sparks from the hindermost wheel on the right-hand side of the engine. The next mom ent the train was off the line. The road, he said, wa s ver y bad to travel over between Sheffield and Retford, so bad that it made the engine shake about terribly. The other evidence taken on Friday did not bear upon the cause of the accident. On Saturday the accident was resumed. Thomas Spriggs, a man who assisted after the acci dent, proved that the deceased engine driver told him he was quite unable to account for the accident. Alfred Wheeler and Mark Briggs, two miners who live on the margin of the line, concurred in stating that the train in question travelled on the night of the acci dent much faster than they had ever seen it. The next point of the inquiry was as to the state of the line and the engine before the accident. Edward Kemp, a Great Northern guard, accustomed to travel on this portion of the line, said he did not consider the line between Sheffield and Retford (a por tion of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire line) in good order : at all events not so good as the Great Northern line. The trains were accustomed to shake. A few hours before the accident, when accom panying the up-express train, his van shook, and on looking out of tbe window he saw that the inner rail was crooked. On being asked by the coroner why he did not report the circumstance, he said it did not strike him as sufficiently important. Mr. G. Tuckwood, brother of the deceased, repeated the statement which he made on Friday, to the effect that ho had heard Kemp ascribe the accident to the line being out of gauge. Richard Hesketh, an engine -driver, in the employ of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, stated that he drove over the line two hours before the accident, and did not notice anything amiss with the rails or anything else. John Lyne, a plate-layer, said he examined that part of the line in question twice on Wednesday (the day of the accident), as usual, and found it in good running order. Mr. C. Banick, superintendent of the permanent way, saw on Tuesday that at that particular place the line was all right. After the accident he found that eighty yardk of the up-rails had been torn up, and thirty yards of the down line. Mr. Richard Peacock, locomotive superintendent on the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, after stating that he made en inspection in order to find Out the cause of the accident, said—There is nothing in the evidence I have heard and the examination I have made, to induce me to suppose that the accident was caused by any improper condition of the line. If the rails had been bent, a.; stated by Kemp, it would not have caused the engine to run off the line; but I have no reason to suppose that the engine did run eff from any defect in the rcad. From the appearance of the engine. wheel , , I think the hind pair of wheels got off the line first, but I don't know the cause. I think the txlo of the trading-wheels of the engine (the hindermost wheels) was strained slightly, and that that caused the accident. The sparks spoken of by Leah might have been caused by the springing of the frame of the engine in passing round the curve, and thus bringing the wheels in con tact with a bolt head, which he perceived projecting from the side of the tack of the engine. It is not dan gerous to travel along that curve at thirty cr forty miles an hour. Mr. Sturrock, locomotive engine:r of the Great Nor thern, ssid—l cannot satisfy myself as to the causo of the accident; but I very much agree with Mr. Peacock, as far as I cut' form an opinion. After some unimportant evidence, The CORONER summed up, and the jury consulted with closed doors about twenty minutes. The Foreman then delivered the following verdict:— " We are unanimously of opinion that the deceased, Sa muel Wright and Charles Tackwood, have come by their deaths in consequence of No. 12 Great Northern train, with engine No. 29, running off the rails near Woodhouse Junction, on the night of the Bth inst.; but as to what caused the train to run off the rails no satis factory evidence has been given to the jury." The inquest ended about eight o'clock P.M. THE IRON TRADE. On Wednesday last, at Wolverhampton, a partial meeting of the trade took place, consisting of those gen tlemen who were interested i❑ the dispute between the refractory portion of paddlers and their employers, and such other© who were accidentally present at the time. It appears that a willingness had been expressed by the paddlers to return to their work, if the masters would fix upon any limited period at which they would promise to advance the wages; while, on the other hand, the sup plying of those works with puddle• bars where the men were standing, from others where they continued to work, was found excessively inconvenient to both. A resolution was, therefore, passed, declaring a general advance of 20s. per ton on all finished iron, with a pro portionable percentage upon the wages of the workmen engaged in its manufacture, to take place from the Ist of October next; and it is hoped that these misguided men will now return quietly to their work. Their con duct has been highly censurable, not only as having in flicted wanton injury upon their respective employers, but seriously affecting the general interests of the trade by diverting orders to other districts. This resolution will, doubtless, bo confirmed at the general meeting of the trade to be held on the 30th instant, although we are well aware that groat anxiety is felt by some, whose opinions are worthy of much consideration, as to the eiftct that may result. There are, however, others suf ficiently sanguine to look forward to such a revival as will call for still further advances, and certainly a very considerable speculative demand seems to be already opening up, and business has been freely transacted at the advanced rates.—Birmingham Gazette. THE LASTING TlE.—Dean Storr, when residing on a living in the country, had occasion one day to unite a rustic couple in the bands of matrimony. The ceremony being over, the husband began to " sink i n resolution," and' falling (as some husbands might do), into a fit of repentance, he said, " Your reverence has tied the knot tightly, 1 fancy, but, under favour, may I ask your reveren ce if so be you could untie it, again ?" " Why , no," replied the Dean, "we never do that on this part of the consecrated ground." " Where then?" cried the man, eagerly. "On that !" point ing to the burying ground. A wild girl, says the Cincinnati Commercial, was captured last week in the woods back of Columbia. She was first observed climbing trees with a rapidity only equalled by a monkey. Captain M'Cullough, with a large party, went out to capture this singular being, an d alter great trouble succeeded in doing so, when they learned from her incoherent expressions that she had been a lunatic in the asylum at Columbus, whence she escaped some months since, and had lived its the woods, subsisting upon nuts and rootz. The work of reconstructing the Great Exhibition building at Sydenham is now being pushed forward with great vigour, and that spectacle of well-ap plied labour which in Hyde -park excited such un quelified admiration is about to be successfully repeated. Already the rite has been cleared, the foundations to a great extent prepared, a vast mass of materials collected on the ground, and even the plan of the surrounding gardens and their embel lishments roughly struck out. Great as was the speed with which the old building was reared, there is every reason to believe that in this respect the new will rival, if it does not eclipse it. The credit of the nation for punctuality no longer acts as a sti mulus on the contractors, but they will, no doubt, show themselves men of their word, and they have not only the experience of the previous undertaking to aid them, but they work to a great extent with the same hands, the wane materials, end the same proportions. The very bell that summoned file labo urers to th e i r work—the crane that ifted the h eav i er cas ti ngs , an d the hydraulic press that tested the girders in Hyde-park, are again at their former uses. Huge piles of materials, arranged so as to be most available, are stacked in order along the 'ground. There are long rows of prostrate columns, reviving, the paint upon them, recollec tions of Owen Jones' s b which so vast a tide of colouring. The doors through humanity swept last summer are deposited in a heap one above the other, ready for fresh service. One sees mountains of asebbars, window-frames, panelling, Paxton gutters, railings, bracings, girders, and other materials , all bearing about them the traces of th e i r late and apparently little deteriorated in conditione utheeieby. There is also an immense accumulation of away in a shed erected for the glass, stowed ose, and the percentage of that brittle material destroyed remarkably troyed i n th e th e e transfer from Hyde-park is said to small. In laying the foundations permanent character of the new structure is shown bythe increased size of them, but th e old proportions and the rule of having everything a multiple 24 are preserved. It is this principle which renders the of the details of construction in such undert a ki ngs so simple and economical, and which now, fully recog nized as it is, promises to yield the grandest results to the science of architecture. While the actual site of the palace has thus been cleared and prepared for the superstructure, and while vast accumulations of materials have been made, the working drawings have also been completed, or nearly so, and a few days more will show the whole design growing to reality, with a speed and certainty which the mechanical re sources of this country alone render practicable. It is a gratifying feature of the new undertaking that the more immediate direction of the work is confided to Mr. Henderson, whose ill health was so severely felt by the firm of which he is a member during the struggle to he ready for the opening of the Exhibi tion. Mr. Henderson's great energy and practical skill admirably qualify him for the task on which he has entered, and he has in Mr. Cochrane, who occupied the same position in Hyde-park, a most effective foreman. Of the building which they are about to raise, the main features are sufficiently well known to justify a natural anxiety in the public mind for its successful compietion. There cannot be a doubt that the new Crystal Palace will be a far more splendid edifice than the old, though the wonder which the novelty of the latter inspired may somewhat blunt our appreciation. The site is magnificent, and commands a glorious pro spect, in which Loudon, with her far extending suburbs and her population of 2,000,000, forms but a section of the view. Looking south-east even now, the eye is carried over a smiling and variegated land scape without obstruction, as far as its powers can reach ; but no conception can at present be formed of the circuit visible from an additional elevation of 200 feet, and embracing within its ample verge, not only the panorama of the metropolis, and the course of our greatest river to the sea, but the Surrey hills, abound ing in natural beauty, and the rich lands of Kent, the garden of England. Then it must be remembered that the Palace itself will be not the least remark able feature of the scene, shining on its elevated site, and made resplendent by having the sky as its background. Crowning the ridge, it will be conspicuous for many a mile, its towers, arched transepts, and nave, finely breaking up and diver sifying its enormous dimensions. The monotonous effect of the old building will be completely re moved, and it will rise into the air a noble temple, dedicated to the innocent recreation of the people. The grounds of Penge-park, which it immediately overlooks, are nicely undulated, and the frontage, which has a south-eastern exposure from the way in which the land drops, will be elevated and command ing. An open colonnade on this side will run along the whole length of the structure, and the arches of the three transepts, recessed to a depth of 24 feet, will, from their great height and the effect of shadow, be singularly imposing. That in the centre will be 200 feet high, and it has just been proposed by Mr. Barry to surmount the whole with three vast domes, the loftiest rising 400 feet from the base. The work of decoration has been commenced externally, the main avenue, the spaces for some of the fountains, and the line of terraces being roughly indicated. The genius of Paxton will soon bring this part of the undertaking into shape and consistency. Penge park is remarkably well adapted for the operations contemplated, and there are some fine specimens of timber already on the g round, which will no doubt be turned to good and telling account. Among the more striking features of this portion of the works is a lofty towe r with a tank at the top 50 feet square, which it is proposed to construct for the supply of thei fountains, and which is to be so ar ranged that it can itself be converted into an immense cascade. Of the internal decorations and other points comprised in the company's scheme it would be pre mature yet to say much, for, though the plans con nected with them have been so far matured, they will probably undergo extensive m odifications, as circum stances may dictate. Each department has been en trusted to the ablest men that could be found to take charge of it, and they are all now busily ergeged in forming their several collections. Owen Jones and Digby Wyatt are scouring the continent for the materials of artistic embellishment and decoration ; Professor Ansted is getting together a great series of geological illustrations ; the section of natural history is intrusted to the joint care of Professor Edward Forbes, Mr. Waterhouse, and Mr. Gould, assisted by Mr. Thompson, of King's College. D r. Latham has undertaken the ethnological department, and the winter garden is, of course, the special object of Sir Joseph Paxton's solicitude, who will, no doubt, do everything that a knight can to bring down into the 19th century, and within in • a few minutes' drive of London, the fabled gardens of the Hesperides, without the dragon. The last accession made to the company's staff, and perhaps the most valuable for them, as a commercial body, is Mr. Belshaw, that most successful, active , and obliging superintendent of th e working details of exhibitions since their comme ncement i n this country. He w ill fill his old position in the New Cry and exhibitors occupying his special care. The - - space . P ons of this kin already coming in fast, a tho p u ic h ati rent will be charged, and it is expected that this will eventually turn out a considerable source of revenue. Viewed i r whole. the undertaking of the Crystal , p a lace LAM- PanY is one which manifestly deserves t favour, and be re ceived by the public with the greatest wish to see which every philanthropic mind must in their successful. Yet, at this Crlitrableasragcaerefully in operations, the directors should y of the Great mind certain points which Exhibition suggests, and thenich, if not held stead. A ll good and nobly-intended featly in view, Their subscribed capital is may t co r ve enterprise with disase plansalst already contemplate an expen diture amount, and probably not much far beyond under 1,000,001. sterlin on g. this a Theym ount will find that before an y dividend can be paid a large annual sum will be required for the expenses of maintenance. T h e i r r eliance on the commercial value of their under . t a king is rightly bas ed u p on the p atrona g e of the in dustrious classes. To have that patronage the charge for admission must be easily within the means of those classes . Now, if the preliminary outlay is not very carefully guarded, this will be impossible. The humbler classes paid their shillings to see the Ex hibition, but that was once in a way, and because the glories of the spectacle were fleeting. The bare knowledge that a sight can be seen at any time tends greatly to disarm curiosity ; and the strict commercial character of the new undertaking dissolves a considerable amount of that popular gym,. pathy which was felt for a common effort, in which all made sacrifices to do homage to the dignity of labour. The Great Exhibition was self-supporting, but it was also, while it lasted, a great freewill offer ing. Some were paid, and rightly so, for what they did ; but the majority contributed their time, their skill, and their property gratuitously. Had it taken place under the Mundy contract one may fairly question whether the success achieved would have been nearly so brilliant, and, even as matters stand, with the great body of the work done by volun tary effort, and the whole world agog about the splen dour of the spectacle, the surplus is only 150,000/. English companies engaged in new undertakings I i*.a NMI' of the PUBLIC JOURN ALS. i TIMES.—The abyss of ignominy into which Louis Bonaparte is plugging the French nation seems to become daily more unfathomable. No sooner ' have we explored one portion of the gloomy gu lf i n which the past, the present, and the future of France seem to be buried, than we are aware of lower depths and darker shadows. We have ransacked ancient history to afford us parallels in order to bring more vividly to our own minds and those of our readers a state of things for which modern Europe, happily, amid all its disorders and retrogression, affords no precedent. The games of Philip or Commodus may faintly image the fates and spectacles offered to Paris in exchange for her liberty, and the annals of Rome before the Reformation may afford miracles as false and demands as shameless as those of the Bishop of Luton ; but for his last stroke of genius the Presi dent need f ear no historic para ll e l ; it i s h app il y unique and or i g i nal, a Napoleonic idea, and only Na poleonic. The effert of the President has been not merely to enslave the country which, seduced by oaths and promises, trusted her liberty in his faithless hands, but to make the nation itself the accom plice in its own degradation. Repression is carried to such an extent, and the power exerted is so peremptory and absolute, that people are com pelled not merely to acquiesce, but to take an active and eager interest in rivetting their own fetters. Domitian, as Tacitus tells us , kept a register of me n 's sighs. Louis Bonaparte must have his every act o f aggression welcomed with smiles. Many have snatched absolute power by violence, or clutched it by fraud; he alone demands as a gift that which he has already taken as a right. But, more than this, he puts into the mouths of his people entreaties for slavery and petitions for degradation, sanctioned and enforced by an appeal to the deepest and tenderest passions of human nature. If it were possible to raise a free voice or wield a free pen in France, there is no topic to which the writer or orator would so readily resort as the blighted hopes and ruined destinies of the rising generation of Frenchmen. "You are content," Constant might have said or Courier have written,— " you are content to forego all power as much snore odious t hat conquered for you, for yourselves, and to bow before a historic traditions . than t hat of t your the e nc G es r t a o n r d s Monarque as fraud and f here ditary claims and Your lives and liberties are are worse than on ur own, and you may, o traditions. Be it so. if you please, squander them y whomyour children you They, there at safer least, were any y its continuan ce a ct t ?f ourselves. But adventurer with born into free dom ; they were not deprived by an own of this right, and they claim from you. Let natural affection supply of public spirit, and, if not for your sake, at any ; e t for theirs, be free. You leave them your lands and your goods ; leave them also the inheritanc e of equal law and popular government, without which the pro prietor is a ryot, and the millionaire a mere deposi tory for the State." Will it be believed that this very appeal, so irresistibly urging to freedom, l aan i„, Napoleon Bonaparte is now making to France, or rather requiring France to make to him, in order that he may perpetuate her slavery ? On behalf of the children whom they may fondle on their knees, as they value the hopes of the dearest objects of parental love, the fathers of France are instructed to beseech Louis Bonaparte to break yet one more oath by declaring his power perpetual, and thus to secure the future of millions, whose existence they are made to assure him hangs upon his breath. There is something in this passing the limits of ordi nary degradation, and the very sacrament of nature is profaned and invaded when the love of the parent for his child is put forward as a ground for selling him into servitude. Let our readers judge for them selves. There is now printed and circulated in France a petition to the Senate, prepared by an ardent supporter of the President, under the direc tion of the Minister of the Interior, for the re-es tablishment of hereditary power in the person of Louis Bonaparte. This document, which we have elsewhere given at length, purports to be signed by fathers of families and labourers. It states, that in a country like France all interests are placed under the sovereign influence of the Chief of the State; that who is to be this chief ought not to be made a periodical question ; that otherwise a father cannot possibly know the politicol conjuncture under which he will provide for the marriage of the child whom he fondles upon his knee; that therefore such a presidency cannot satisfy the loftiest and sweetest sentiments of parental and conjugal love ; that, were it otherwise, the births ought in a peculiar manner to correspond to the renovation of the Executive ; and that the present generation, having conquered anarchy, would violate all the duties which it owes to succeeding generations if it were to allow the prin. ciple of resistance to be individualized; and prays, for these and other reasons, that Louis Napoleon may be invested with an hereditary succession. We can imagine no grosser insult offered to any nation than that contained in this really official document. Go vernment in France, where the Illoniteur lately 06.. sured us " an essay was being made of the most un bounded liberty," is always to be absolute, and the only question is in whose hands that absolute p ower is to be vested. Despotism in F rance i s an ac em plished fact; and, accordi ng to this petition, no other form of governm en t is possi b le. can be done for future generations is and,iu fathersorder _to gra tif y to m a ke , it statle and permanent, the affectionate yearnin gs to deprive posterity of the power of selecting the ofa of families, pletely are the the property of her st oTntigmeasotfer.freS"okcaloc people of Preece considered to be it is even suggested, their present and future rulers, that in a spirit of ironical an d con temptuous exaggeration that no paren t ought to bring up a c hil d except he be born a t the particular period at w hi ch the change of dynast)" is to take place.

We need not doubt that the p! terest!cl rin tition will be graciously received, that the f o nd affectio ns 0 f fathers and families will be held an excuse for the zeal with which t hey canvas s the de tails of a constitution to which the President h as given the inviolable seal of his oath, and that in m ercy to the rising generation he will be persuaded, by the prayers be has dictated himself, to suffer the gentle violence of converting the ownership of France and Frenchmen from a term of years into a fee -simpl e , Such is the language held, such are the sentiments expressed, in the country of Mirabeau a n d Lafayette Happily it is not in the power o f the Fr ench* nation to confer on the existing state of things the stability which is asked. Were it p oss ibl e to mortgage or alienate the rights of posterity we believe that there is servility and baseness enough in the country to assign the m moat solemn and binding manner. But, haPPiIY for the destiny of mankind , t he right over in the instrument is cancell e d, and reverts, the human na t u re re-enters into possession of th e di gn i ty which it was sought to forestall and de s t roy ; the possessor of land may alienate the patri mony of his heirs, but a n ation can only squand er th e patrimony of the present.
