S UN, "A Building of purely English Architecture destined for the recreation and instruction of the Million, Was erected on the sth day of August, 1852, In the 16th year of the reign of her Majesty Queen Victoria, By Samuel Laing, Esq., ME, Chairman of the Crystal Palace Company." When completed —as the building will be before many months have advanced—th e advantage secured by it to the people of the metropolis is almost beyond the reach of calculation. Hap pily the attempt of the Sabbatarians to close the Crystal Palace on Sundays is certain of being worsted altogether. The citizens of London and Westminster will not then be precluded from participating in the forthcoming feast of innocent and intellectual enjoyment. Oa the contrary, we may now confidently anticipate that when once the pro posed scheme has been carried into active operation the day of rest will be peculiarly dedicated, after the hours of " Divine service," to the visiting (by the la bouring classes of the capital) of the princely gardens and palatial structure now being summoned into ex istence by the genius of Fox, and JONES, and Pax•ros, by the activity of WYATT, by the presiding abilities of LAING, and by the munificence of the Crysta' Palace Company, among what are still in some mea. sure the verdant solitudes of Sydenham. aa. Ki T ng h d e om int i e n lli r g e reference c frome to the lparts of the United to prospects of the pot crop is of a v er y g l oomy Ch ara cter. It is said that a unequivocal indications of the formidable disease which haw occasioned such fearful misery and suf fering to the less wealthy classes are already per ceptible, and that—more especially in Ireland—no doubt can exist but that a large proportion of the crop will be totally lost. This is, indeed, a melan choly prospect, requiring that every possible precau. tion should be taken while there is yet time to prevent results almost as deplorable as those which followed the mysterious visitations of 1846 or 1847. We would not., however, while urging the neces sity of th e) utmost v i g il an ce and the adoption of suitable reraedial measures, have it supposed that the danger is quite so imminent as has been repre sented, or that, even if such were the case, the conseciuences could be so fatal as on the former occasion. We must, in the first place, make ample allowance • for the tendency to magnify e xisting dangers without any deliberate intention (,f exaggeration or misstatement. Those who have uustained heavy pecuniary losses will be easily frightened, and matters which would have been disregardeei, or treated as of trivial importance, a dozen years since will now be regarded in a very different point of view. " The burnt child dreads the fire," w and the Irish farmer or the Irish landlord may tremble at a ny appearance of a blight. The first symptom induces many to try to dispose of their produce at any price, while it is yet fit for consumpti.an, and serious damage is occasioned by the very panic produced by the alarmists. It must :not be forgotten that a much greater ex• tent of lan d was planted this season than for severa years, so tb at even if a large quantity should be lost, much wouLd still remain available for general use. We have had statements quite as alarming in 1849, 1850, and 1851, as to the appear ance of the terrible epidemic, and yet, al though tie disease was unquestionably in existence, and portions of the crop were destroyed and rendemd valueless in each year, there was abun dance rerma'izming for the wants and exigencies of the people. - We may then still entertain a reasonable hope that, prc pi t,s lthoughortn of loss o theae will alarmists are beare earlierlerger than inthe field, h it has been during the last three years, and if that be the case we •may encounter the difficulty without any undue a e p y p e r n ei h i ef thensi o ns . destruction be so complete as that are the dang er without anything like the meet: ta e formerly so far prepared, that we b icono r fj o uu u lrdl g : h into. 4storr practical whasbeen an sustained. every district: an organized ff sta ,by means whereof the necessary relief could be administered. It is also a melancholy. fact that the classes who • might require assistance ar a greatly reduced in numbers through the combined: operation of famine, pestilence, and emigration. There must, therefore, be much less to do,; and belt means with which to do it. And we say it advisedly, that it is utterly impossible that the fatill scenes of 1847 could • agam be paral leled, or that we could now have a monetary con. vulsion simile r to that which occurred in that fats year. Thereat enow noless than twenty-two millions of rounds stcrli4g in the coffers of the Bank of England, besides a "nue b larger sum in general circulation. Even if eight or nine millions sterling should be abstracted from the amount, it could not lead to the lanv.nta tole deficiency in the currency which formerly paralysed the national in- dustry, and rendered the circulating medium inade quate to the wants and -exigencies of the community. The supply b.cra Australia and California would speedily fill n p the vacuum if any should arise. There is, there fore, no prospect of a monetary panic, such as that NY hich produced by far the larger pro portion of tea :mischief of 1847. There is, therefore, nothing to fear ; but the Government should closely regard the pro• gress of the disease with a view to alleviat ing its con quences as much as practicable. Let them cons:.z.der how far the steps taken by Sir ROBERT PEEL mitigatcd the evil in 1846, and be prepared to fallow the example set by that great statesman, if the necessity for so doing should unfortunately a rise. DEATH OF D In. GRANGER, M.P. FOR DURHAM CITY. —lt is our melancholy duty to record the death of Mr. Granger, the "valuable Member for the city of Durham. The melancholy event took place in York yesterday Jhursday) very suddenly. The Hon. Member had been on the northern circuit at the Durham assizes, and arrived in York on Saturday evering. Feeling himself unwell, he marked change for . an experienced resolved to remain quiet in the ancient city of York for a , few days, hoping I hat a relaxation from the excitement of business would be beneficial. He consulted Mr. B. iiods ; baffled e effort, to tb, a surgeon of considerable practice, and he continued improve under his treatment until Wednesday, when a the worse presented itself. Dr. Simpson, p hysician, was called in, but the disease Granger was call counsel, a bench and yesterday morning, at eight o'clock, the veryn breathed his last at Scawin's Hotel, near the railway etatri,3ll, where he had taken apartments.

He moved a resolution to that effect. Mr. Currie seconded the proposition of the chairman , and it was unani mously agt?ect to. The meeting then separated. happy conclusion may be safely predicated. For the Crystal Palace Company itself the result can Scarcely be otherwise than satisfactory. For the Croydon Railway it must, consequently, be a source of emolu ment and gratulation. For the inhabitants of the metropolis it must, moreover, be a very singular and indeed unprecedented advantage, Situated as the site is at a distance in all respects peculiarly conve nient, it must be found sufficiently accessible by the a id of steam, and sufficiently removed from the grimy scene of the great "brick and mortar invasion," to be almost sylvan, and certainly picturesque. It must have been a source of unalloyed sa tisfaction to Mr. LAING, the distinguished chair man of the company, and recently invested with the dignity of a legislator by the electors of the Wick Burghs in Scotland, to assume by right of his offi cial position the agreeable responsibility of presiding over the initiative proceedings of yesterday. He can scarcely call those proceedings to remembrance henceforth without feelings of a somewhat enviable character. Neither could he have been altogether without some such emotions of honest pride when depositing under the first pillar of the Crystal Palace the glass vase, not merely containing the coins of the realm, but bearing the inscription that the "first sup port" of the new edifice— _ _ :" , 4, A •Nii e' I_ , L; " 4 CZA' z '47 , • mos isr, bit 01T --••• ...,-.., etfettl , yo l 4u/-e_ , - 4 . 070 , ' LONDON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 6, 1852. Another epoch in the history of the Crystal Palace attached a remarkable interest to the proceedings of yesterday. It will be recorded in a supplement to the annals of the Great Exhibition, that on the morn ing of Thursday, the szh of August, the first pillar of that celebrated structure was raised upon the new site, among the green trees and the meadows in the vicinity of Svdenham. Unlike most repetitions—the present is manifestly destined to evidence a very ex traordinary degree of improvement.

The report that a slight would be thrown on the newly-organized National Guards, by retracting the order for a public distribution of the Eagles, would appear to have been founded on a misapprehension. The Patric., which had countenanced the report, now has the following "From information which we have received we can now affirm that there will be a review of the National Guard and a distribution of Eagles on the 15th. It was hoped that the Nktional Guards of the departments might have token part in the ceremony; but as their organization is not sufficiently complete, the Eagles will be delivered to them by the local autho rities. The National Guard of the department of the Seine will alone be convoked for the ceremony of the 15th." The lLfoniteur copies and authenticates the latter statement of the Patrie. The Moniteur contains a notice of the elections for councils -general and councils of arrondissements, which is of some importance as a declaration of the determination of the Government to profit by the trust reposed on it for the consolidation of tranquillity and the development of credit and national prosperity. A great deal has been said by some of the journals of the abstentious of electors, and even a Ministerial organ has called this a culpable indolence, arising, however, The Press e , w hi ch, although an Opposition journal, it said, from con fid ence i n t h e G overnment. is willing to admit the force of the arguments on the other side, has observed that the abstentions may to a great extent be ascribed to confidence in the Government, but that some account ought to be taken of the abstentions arising from the absence of candidateships representing different political principles. This absence, however, is not a very conclusive argument for the opposition, for it may be ascribed to a conviction of the hopeless. ness of a struggle against tie Government, and is therefore an indication of the nfluence that the latter has over the electors. The Aloniteur is silent on this point. It assumes that the insult of the elections, as far as they have gene, shows the confidence reposed in the Government, and promises to make use of it in a sense favourable to the tree interests of the country. This announcement coming at the moment when the party spirit was endeavouring to cause it to be be lieved that the Government was desirous of popu larity with the masses, in order to diminish the in fluence of the bourgeoisie, must tend to tranquillize that important class of the nation ; for if the power derived from universal suffrage be exercised in sup port of credit and iniustry, the bourgeoisie must of necessity be placed in the position that it ought to Possess, and it will be its own fault if it does not maintain that position. A decree which is published in the Moniteur con vokes the Ceuncils• General for the 23d inst. M. TONY JOHANNOT, a well-known painter, died on Wednesday, in Paris, of apoplexy. The much talk e d- o f book of M. PRUDHON has ap peared to-clay. He concludes by the following pas sage, extraordinary in the mouth of a republicaan : " Louis Napoleon is really the object of the people. The people, you say, were not free. The people were deceived. The people were afraid. Vain pretexts. Are men afraid? Are they deceived in such cases? Do they want liberty ? We, the republicans, have repeated, upon the faith of our most suspected traditio ns , • Vox populi vox Dei.' Th e v o i ce of G o d has named Louis Napoleon. As the expression of the popular will he is the most legitimate el sovereigns." The following letter of the Bishop of GAP to the Bishop of ORLEANS, on the vexed question of classical education, is going the round of the Paris papers, most of which present it es an astonishing specimen of ec clesiastical blasphemy MONSEIGNEUR,— " I believe in God, Creator of the univers, but I do not believe in the good faith of those who desire to destroy the Univers (newspaper organ of the priests op posed to the classics). " I believe in Jesus Christ, who has established his Church through the Christian doctors, and not the doc tors of paganism. " I believe in the Holy Ghost, who has spoken by prophets and not by sy bits. " I believe in the communion of saints; but I do not believe in that of the Gazette, the Siecle, the Debate, the Prase, and the Charivari. "1 believe in the resurrection of the dead; but I fear much that of the Gallicans and Parliamentarians. "I believe in life eternal, but not that of the Elysean fields, however finely painted by pagan poets. " That is to say, monseigneur, I am for the adoption of Christian authors in due proportion, without renounc ieg the chefs erceuvre of Rome and of Athens, although they must be carefully expurgated from what is hurtful to good manners and the Catholic faith.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday amounted to about 8,000 balee, of which 1,000 American were for export, and 1,000 ditto and 1,000 Egyptian were taken by speculators. The market closed steadily, but Ame rican sold at rather easier rates for the middling sorts. The sales comprised 1,000 American, 300 Pernam and Maranham at 6d. to lid, 1,200 Egyptian at bid. to 7id., and 500 Surat at 3,td. to 44 , 1.—The Railway Share Market was quiet, but prices were firm. In the Colonial Markets, this week, business has been quiet. Coffee has risen in consequence of the Treasury order sent down to the Excise respecting an enforce ment of the Excise regulation, that Chicory shall not be mixed before sale with Coffee. Sugar has been rather weaker, Rice firm, and in Saltpetre, Rum, and Tsllow, there has been no particular change. Tea has been more dealt in, Cotton is scarcely so dear, and Cochineal con tinues i n f avour. The Metal Market appears to be in a satisfactory condition, and dried fruit is firm, owing to the bad accounts from the places of growth. The Treasury Order concerning chicory (which ap pears in another column) is, by many of the trade, con sidered too stringent, and the growers of chicory think it should he allowed to be mixed by the grocers, if sold as a mixture. Advicee. dated April, have been received from Mel bourne, Victoria. The following is from Ballarat:-- " If I cannot write of large yields I can report a steady result remunerative to the diggers. The scarcity of water prevents that enterprise which otherwise would be brought into play from developing itself, and confines their present operations to a limited tract on the flat trending towards Yuille's station. Brilliant recollectiens of a few months past still exercise a powerful effect, and the gold digger hugs close to the Golden Point, as the mariner of old to the sea board— but soon as the winter rain tames on, hill and galley will be explored, with a result I venture to predicate that will rival any success es yet recorded. There are some parties here who have done remarkably well, many who have met with signal success, and others, as ever will be the case, who have been entirely unsuc cessful. One party on the ground, lam informed, had made 2,0001. in a very short period. A party of five shared three pounds weight on Saturday last, the result of a week's work; another told me that his party was clearing from seventeen to twenty ounces per day; and Messrs. Dunlop and Co., a party I believe of five in number, realised 1,1001. in about a month. But these instances of success must stand apart; they are lucky strokes of fortune that neither foresight or skill can attempt to parallel, for a gold digger may be often within an inch of a fortune, and yet miss it; may throw down pick and shovel in disgust or despair, and leave the prize for the next corner to turn up, perhaps at the first spit. full. • The uncertainty of gold digging is demonstrated, if do moratratiou were needful to illustrate that which has at become proverbial by the present state of I? where there are holes which have proved woncirousbl; prolific, but which are out-fl inked for many . a yard, failures. Ex other holes, which have proved complete perience is at fault with regard to gold- r s A further decline has occurred appearance, a e b k i Public n Securities, the those enumerated and the market wears a very he s ay t y o absence of any additional last day or two, except that under this head during decidedthee fall at the close of the ConsolsThe New d 9 .9! we are advked of a rda Bourse at Paris yesterday , u o Eastted lO3 India haavnedt:Ete:nreigh.ever-bills of June 91s to and ate now 9 9 1 • and are Q th u s a T rt h er re p e e p r e C r ents.
