Jones took place on Monday at the Egyptian-hall of the Mansion house, the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the chair. Amongst those present we observed Alderman Thomp son, M.P. ' • and Aldermen Hoop er , W ood, Challis, Musgrove, Mr. Richard Thornton, Mr. Jas. Hutchinson. Mr. Philip Green, Mr. :John Dent, Ntr. Henry Tritton, Mr. Llewellyn, from the house of Truman and Co. ; Thomas Procter, the City Chamb er l a i n , t h e C ommon Sergeant, and most of the members of the Court of Common Council. Letters were read from Sir Robert Smirke, Mr. John Mssterman, M.P., and others, apolo -1 giSing for their absence, but heartily approving of the object of the meeting. _ overo Janes the to The Loan MAYOR briefly opened the business of the day by observing that the time had arrived when a due his fellow citizens f en L s sense of the public services and private character of his friend Richard Lambert Jones had induced his friends and the public to meet for the purpose of recording in a permanent manner the sense entertained of the great, important, and increasing services rendered by Mr. rupwards of twenty-three years Mr. Jones had, as London-bridge. nt: n t . d h g e e Chairman of various Committees, improved the streets, enlarged the communications for commerce, and presided public Th eat Royal large. Exchange, and various had been carried out by other important improvements his energy, talents, and inde fatigable exertions.—(Cheers •-•,) For these reasons, he thought the time wa s a the sentiments of th e public ix sayin g arrivedwhen he but echoed join in doing honour to services that now all would 'so eminent and rendered so disintereatedly.—(Cheers.) Alderman THOMPSON, M.P., rose to move the first re solution. "It afforded him, he declared, great pleasure to meet with those who had assembled for such a pur pose.—(Hear, hear.) He had often thought that the corporation had neglected their duty in not having, while Mr. Jones was amongst them, done something to his honour, but as that had not been done, he thought it was necessary for the public to come forward and do honou r to'such high public exertions as had been made for the advantage of London by that able and zealous friend of the citizens. He regretted that he could not in a short speech express the obligations which, as a mer chant, an alderman, and a citizen, he owed to Mr. Jones.—(Loud cheers.) To him this great city owed much. Its bridge, inconvenient, old, and dangerous, had been replaced by an elegant structure, the admiration of all, and in every respect highly beneficial to commerce. The streets had been widened and improved, and new streets had been opened. A new Exchange had been erected, and notwithstanding all the vast outlays occasioned by these improvements the finances of the Corporation had sustained no dimi nution. Much of all this had been done by the advice and under the superintendence of Mr. Jones, and to that excellent individual he was satisfied his fellow citizens owed a debt of lasting gratitude. He cheerfully moved the resolution. RICHARD THORNTON, Esq., seconded the resolution, in a neat but energetic speech, in which he dilated on the service rendered by Mr. Jones, and concurred in the sentiments of his friend, Mr. Alderman Thompson. which was put and carried unanim ous ly. PHILIP GREEN, Esq., moved the next resolution, and in so doing said, even on grounds of honesty, Mr. Jones was entitled to praise, for before the removal of old London-bridge many accidents had occurred, but he had not heard of one since the new structure had been erected. JAMES HUTCHINSON speech full of ability. Jonas' DENT, Esq., moved the third resolution, and said that as a neighbour and a friend and a citizen, he perfectly concurred in all that had been said of Mr. Jones's services, and was glad to find that others as well as himself appreciated public service, rendered with such a cheerful spirit.—(Hear, hear.) Alderman CHALLIS said be was glad to find that public attention had been directed to the subject. He felt assured the best way to reward public men was to give them public honour. Benefactors to their race were entitled to praise, and he was glad to find, in the life-time of Mr. ,Tones, his fellow citizens were doing themselves honour by honouring one who had worked well for the public.—(Great applause.) Several other addresses were made by Mr. Chamber.. lain Brown, the Common Sergeant, Alderman Wood, John Dillon, Esq. (of the fiim of Morrison, Dillon, and Co.) and others ; and, after an unanimous vote of thanks had been passed to the Right Hon. the Lord Hayor, the meeting separated, but not until every one present had put down his name as a subscriber. seconded the resolution in a MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of June 9.) SuGAa.—Although there were sellers of all descriptions of West India Muscovadoe Sugar, at a reduction on the rates of Friday of 6d per cwt, still the trade were even less inclined to operate, and the demand for Refining as well as for Gro cery purposes was rather limited. REFINED.—To-day Refined goods were much sought after by the home trade, but few parcels were to be had. Bonded Crushed Sugar met with ready purchasers and higher rates were paid. MAuurrius.—This afternoon there was no public sale of Mauritius Sugar, and the small parcels disposed of privately were at barely former prices. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon cf Bengal Sugar 3743 bags at public sale were sold at a decline on former rates of 6d to Is for white, and brown quality 6d per cwt cheaper. FOREIGN.—This afternoon at public sale 100 barrels, 3 cases of Bahia Sugar were sold at stiffer rates, very fine yellow at 21s, tine brown 20s to 20s 6d, middling 18s, and low at 17s 6d ; 103 brls of Bahia Rapadura taken in at 16s. COFFEE.—this afternoon three Parcels of Ceylon Coffee, amounting to 2176 bags, were brought to public sale ; mer chants were inclined to realise, but submitting to a reduction on former rates of 6d to is for Native and 6d per cwt for Plantation caused the whole to find buyers. TEA.—In Congou purchases to a fair extent have been made, but holders are unable to obtain any advance in prices, they accept 9d to 91-d for common sound cash, and 10d to lOid for good com ; there is a fair quantity of all kinds on offer. In Pouchong several sales have been made, but holders are compelled to accept 4d to 6d for low to middling, and 7d to 9d for good to fine. Hyson is wanted upon former terms. For Twankay former rates are insisted upon, but there has been little passing. Rica.—To-day Bengal Rice was sought after, but holders insisting upon a further advance, operated against business, and at public sale the sound of 3,723 bags were taken in at 12s 6d for good middling and good white, being above the value ; there were buyers at former rates ; the damaged, however, sold.

Even under a management that has been remarkable for the vigour and success of its endeavours to render the sport worthy of a meeting that alone obtains the personal sanction and encouragement of the Sovereign, Ascot never offered so brilliant a series of prizes for competition as on the present occasion—and never, perhaps, was a strong list better timed. Had it been on the meagre scale that passed muster in the late reigns, it is clear that the meeting, lacking its most attractive feature—the presence of the Queen —would have been barren and unprofitable. The events spread over the four days are thirty- three in number, varied in character, rich in amount, and in the public merits of the 604nals engaged, so open, as to make their results a fruitful source of speculation and prophecy. The amateur racing is a anew feature in the number of I f l b i r eh th t the e t w o o n only a ss Haw es r i s the the small 4 g 0 t Stakes run yesterday. The handicappe rs do not a pp ear to have been happy , either in the classification of the h or ses, or in the measure they have taken of their capa ngrofaanleemeeita inn ce which capa bilities. We should not omit to refer to Friday, as ex hibiting a proof of sterling improvement. Formerly it was - a day after the feast in the fullest sense of the phrase ; it will now be a feast of itself, the engagements, including the munificent - prize given by the Great Wes tern Railway Company, being seven in number, with a certainty of at least one'extra class of the Wokingham. We can, therefore, promise those who have missed the first clay, and are not disposed to encounter the crush at the station, or the vicissitudes of the road on Thursday, that on either of the " off" days they may rely upon a profusion of excellent sport. The arrangements on the heath, and of matters incident to the racing, are much the same as last year. sOue or two exceptions, however, should be noticed. In the first place, Mr. Oxley, of Windsor, has been re appointed the " official" printer of the lists, and has proved the wisdom of the change, by shifting his establishment to the course, and issuing his bulletins (with two exceptions, and those not the fault of the printer), free from the numberless errors and omissions so conspicuous last year. Mr. Clark, of course, fills the " judgment-seat," but the weighing is now under the care of Mr. Manning, and Mr. Hibbard succeeds Mr. Charles Davis as Starter, an addition to his manifold duties as clerk of the course more acceptable to the owners of the horses, we should imagine, than to himself. The cenrse, from the judicious use of guano and other manures, is well covered with grass, and in an infinitely better condition than any one could have:expected; from the late hot weather—better, in fact, than it ever was know. With such powerful intrinsic recommendations it cannot be doubted that the meeting will be brilliantly successful. Immense numbers left town by the afternoon trains on Monday, and on reaching the scene of action we found that every bed, box, and stall within a circle of five miles of the Heath, was appropriated. The symp toms yesterday were not less decided : the weather until late in the afternoon was very favourable, and the at tendance, if for an obvious reason it did not attain the maximum of a first day, was numerous and fashionable. The Royal Stand was occupied by Lady Lyndhurst and Miss Copley, the Countess of Chesterfield, Countess of Suffield, Hon. Mrs. Anson, Mrs. John Stanley, and seve ral other ladies. In the Grand and Jockey Club Stands, which made an excellent display, were the Duke of Beaufort, Duke of Rutland, Marquis of Exeter, Marquis of Granby, Marquis of Worcester, Marquis of Waterford, Earl Stradbroke, Earl of Chesterfield, Earl and Countess of Albemarle, Earl Jersey, Earl of Uxbridge, Earl Mil town, Earl of Orford, Earl of Rosslyn, Earl Spencer, Earl of Wilton, Earl of March, Earl of Lonsdale, Earl of Caledon, Lord Duncannon, Lord Maidstone, Lord Leveson, Lord Newport, Lord C. Manners, Lord Sonserton, Lord H. Lennox, Lord E. Russell, Lord S. Osborne, Lord Stanley, Lord Villiers, Lord F. Fitzroy, Lord Macdonald, Lord W. Powlett, Lord Glamis, Lord A. Lennox, Lord B. Cecil, Lord G. Manners, Sir W. M. Stanley, Sir W. W. Wynn, Sir V. Cotton, Sir J. Hawley, Hon. J. Macdonald, 'Hon. S. Littleton, Hon. G. Fitzroy, Hon. H. Pitt, Hon. H. Forester, Hon. F. Villiers, Hon. Francis Villiers, Hon. E. Mostyn, Messrs. Greville, Synge, J. Stanley, Jacques, Balfour, Drum mond, Lowther, Meiklam, Oliver, Bastard, Newton, Batson, Pettat, P. Williams, Brand, Crawford, Shelley. The racing detailed below combined the grand essen tials—abundance and quality. The first event came off at half-past one, and as there was a long list to get through, the usual half-hour intervals were advertised. Owing, however, to three or four smart showers after the fourth race, the order of running could not be strictly observed, and it was a quarter past six o'clook before the last race was over; it may be questioned if the convenience of all parties would not be consulted by an earlier commencement. -- The following are particulars of the sport: — The Trial Stakes of 5 sous. each, with 50 added ; two yrs old, 4st'4lb ; three, 7st4lb ; four, Bst 71b ; five, 9st ; six and aged, 9st 31b.

The order became more open at the top turn, but there was no change in the positions until they reached the Brick Kiln, where the horses dosed, and Javelin went on with a slight lead to the distance. Akbar, the Marquis of Conyngham, and Inheritress then singled themselves out from the crowd, Akbar leading, and, in the end, winning by a length, the Marquis of Conyngham beating the mare by a neck; Javelin a bad fourth. The Ascot Derby Stakes of 50 soya. each, h ft, three yrs old colts, Bst 71b; fillies, B s t 31b . Sw i n l ey C ourse . (13 Subs.)

Ginger and Brother to Valentissimo went off in advance and jointly cut out the work for about 200 yards; Lynceus then shot ahead and went on with a lead of two or three lengths to the distance ; Brother to Valentissimo, and Joy then closed with him, and St. Demetri joining them at the Stand, the four made a splendid race home, Brother to Valentissimo winning . by a head, and the others so near together that none but the judge could have fixed their relative positions. Sweepstakes of 100 sovs., h ft ; for three-yr-old colts Bst 71b, and fillies Bst 41b ; those got by stallions, or out of mares that never bred a winner, allowed Sibs; if both, 51b. Old mile.

Khondooz went off with the lead, and, as if resolved to:cut his horses down at starting--increased his lead so much, that at the top turn he was seven or eight lengths in advance, nor was there any sensible diminut►on in his advanced lead until they neared the last turn; Grimstone, Corranna, and the Peri colt then joined him, and they ran in company, clear of the other horses, to the distance. Grimstone here took up the running, had it all his own way, and was first home by two good lengths, Corranna beating Khondooz byhalf a length, the Peri colt a bad fourth, and nothidg else up.

In kindly spirit, herein counsel's giv'n, How health, how hope, how happiness to gain." WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID ; With Diet Tables for all Complaints. Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil feelings, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health frill 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 everyliving 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 their 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 like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of 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.

AMERICAN NEWS. (Further extracts from the American Papers.) PIIIT,ADELPHIA, ELEVEN O'CLOCK, P.M.—The American has just received the following telegraphic dispatch from a Washington correspondent, dated three P.M.:—" I can now speak of the important news I sent last night. The 50,000 volunteers will be all called out, and 23,000 will be marched into the field as soon as they can be concentrated. General Scott will proceed to take command of the war. The requi sitions have been forwarded to-day, and are nearly as fol lows :—lndiana, 3 regiments ; Illinois, 33 ; Kentucky, 3 ; that n.le nothing this vi i l Tennessee, 3 ; and some others. The residue of the 50,000 will be kept as a reserve. They will be mustered into the a o s ut to thi b s e m re o a r d o y ing fo , r as ord to ers in i te n lli a ge m nc o e m o en f t t . he Mark i b ia e d a co s n u i co e e f :sf ,m ul th a e nd eam sh v ort la w te a r r. t i h ' an Th b e efo r r e e po t r h ts e cap ture of Point Isabel, are without foundation. The Presi dent, within the last hour, stated to a distinguished senator, public. with Caa t hirnee Robinson, FROM MEXICO, VFRA CRUZ, &c. bornlgthJeoBsethphuiniarrivedOrTlea he ns at New days later news from Vera Cruz, by which we learn that there had been no new revolu tion. The rumoured rising in favour of Santa Anna had not taken place. A report was current that Gen had pronounced in the south, i n f avour of a federalal Alvarez repub lic, with a triumvirate meanti me consisting of irenerals Santa Anna, Herrera, and Rincon. The New Orleans Times says : They seem to be expect_ ing war at Vera Cruz, but not "maki ug any . Whilehe mouth of the Rio del Norte is strictly blockaded by our fleet, as is well known at Vera Cruz, onr merchant vessels load at the latter port, and bring off their cargoes unquestioned. Persons who left Vera Cruz in the latter part of last month represent the people of that city as quite prepared for a war with the United States. The military force of the place was daily increasing. The grand castle of San Juan d'Ulloa was in admirable order of defence, well mounted, well provisioned, the guns manned with French and English gunners, and the whole force amounting to about 3,000 men.. The stores of shot and ammunition of all kinds, though large, was still from time to time added to, everything betokening prepara tion for siege. If all these statements be true, it would seem that the Mexicans are determined to make one place at least worth the trouble of taking. The schooner William C. Preston, bound to Matamoros, has returned with her cargo, having been ordered off by the United States brig Lawrence, which maintains strictly the blockade of that river. The whole Mexican naval force was still up the Alvarado, including the two steamers said to have been sold, either to the Spanish Government, or to an English house. The only American vessels of war at Sacraficios was the John Adams; the others had gone to sea. There were also an English, a French, and a Spanish vessel of war at anchor there (names not recollected). The English steamer Tweed was to sail for Havannah the day after Capt. Roberts left (the 27th). The only American merchant vessel in port was the Suvia, Gardner, from New Orleans, which had discharged, and would sail for Havannah in four days. In the Diario appears a letter from Cankles to Ampudia, of which we offer a few paragraphs, as precious specimens of Mexican vanity. The letter is dated the sth April from Matamoros : " The United States army is encamped on the left bank of the Rio Bravo. Slight fortifications have been thrown in front, or rather large ditches have b een d ug , the earth up which has been used for entrenchments. " I have redoubled my efforts to attack the enemy morally, and flatter myself that I have succeeded, for deserters are daily swelling our ranks. I have thirty-five thus far; six were drowned; &c. " I have inspired such terror in the foe that they know not what to do, convinced as they are that they cannot leave their camp without heavy loss, and exposing themselves to defeat. " These few lines will enable you to appreciate the advan tages of a - prompt arrival, before Taylor has time to receive reinforcements, and be enabled to make a vigorous resist ance. The triumph is certain to-day—to-morrow it must be disputed. CANALES." Another letter from Mejia declares " that General Taylor is compelled to employ one-half his army in preventing the other half from deserting 1" NEW ORLEANS, MAY 9. Volunteering is proceeding here with all alacrity, but there is no clothing or arms ready for the men already offered. A strange mismanagement of the War Department has been permitted, else the want of equipment and the military stores received here cannot he accounted for. The Mexican force on this side of the Rio Grande is 3,ooo—half are above and half below General Taylor's camp. Thus communication is effectually cut off until our volunteers open it. Taylor is about oat of the regular provisions of the army, but has 700 head of cattle in camp. The New Orleans Delta, May 9, says that 954 soldiers, rank and file, have received the amount of their bounty money and one month's pay; that 186 men, rank and file, now in barracks, will receive their pay to-day ; andthat 708 men, comprised in different companies, are now ready for in spection, and to be mustered into the service of the United States. Including the latter, there are 1,848 men who may be regarded as ready for service, up to last night. The com panies expected from the country, and those still forming in the city, may make up the requisite number. We take the following from a New Orleans paper of May 9 :—The steamer Hannibal arrived last night from St. Louis, brought down from Jefferson barracks a portion of the Ist In fantry, under tha command of Lieutenant-Colonel Wilson. They number 242 non-commissioned officers, musicians, and privates. It appears that Louisiana's quota or soldiers called for General Taylor must be raised by conscription ' and the order has already gone forth from head-quarters at New Orleans, to " cause an accurate enrolment to be made of all persons subject to military duty within the state, with a view to an immediate draft of troops." It seems from the following pa ragraph, which we clip from a New Orleans paper, that the patriotism of some who had already enlisted " oozed out at the ends of their fingers," or some other place, just as they were on the point of embarkation for the " seat of war :" " CAPTAIN BLARCHARD.—This gentleman, regularly edu cated in the Military Academy, and who served eleven years in the army, has been actively engaged in raising a company of volunteers, but when he thought he was ready yesterday, more than one-half were found to have deserted his flag. This is not creditable conduct, and is one among the many instances which have occurred to show that a draft for troops in the first place would have been much better. As to Mr. Blanchard, there are few who have higher qualifica tions to lead a company into the field, and it affords us pleasure to see such an old citizen and esteemed officer again offer to take his sword in defence of the country. We really hope that those who have volunteered under him, and others wishing to volunteer, will come forward and behave as men should do." At Baltimore, a company of 200 men has been organised for the Rio Grande. Captain J. E. Stewart has been chosen temporarily to the command, and will probably be elected Captain. Between sixty and seventy have enrolled them selves in Richmond, Va., and elected Edward Carrington as their Captain. COURT OF ALDERMEN. Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of businass. THE KING OF THE FRENCH AND THE CORPORATION OF LONDON. • The LORD MAYOR read the following letter, which he received from .- the King of the French, in answer to the ardresses voted to his Majesty upon the occasion of the late attempt upon his life. Neuilly, May 16, 1846.. MY LORD MAYOR—I have to reinest your Lordship to convey to the Court of Aldermen, and to the Court of Common Council of the City of London, the deep sense of gratification with which I acknowledge the addresses they have voted to me on the occasion of the late attempt upon my life. Impressed as I am, with the importance so justly attached to the manifestations of your great metropolis, I duly appreciate this signal testimony both of their high esteem and friendly dis position towards my nation and countrii and of their good will towards myself and my "family. The many tokens of kindness and the hospitality I have received among you, at various periods of my long career, have left an indelible impression on my mind and on my heart. I aml grateful to hear from you, that you do justice to my constant and unceasing efforts to promote the good understanding and friendly inter course between France and England. It is with the sincerest satisfaction that I see the progress of this policy spreading more and more, under the protection of Divine Providence, its beneficial effects not only in both our countries, but over all the world, where the advan tages of that pacific policy are daily better felt and more justly appreciated. It is with the gracious concurrence of my august friend and ally, your beloved Sovereign, that I request your Lordship to convey this expression of my feelings, not only in my own name, but also in the name of the Queen and of all the members of my family, to the Court of Aldermen and to the Common Council of the City of London. My Lord Mayor, your affectionate, LOUIS PHILIPPE. Alderman HtmrPnERY rose to move that the letter, which reflected such honour on the heart and under standing of the King of the French, should be treated .with signal marks of respect.—(Cheers.) It is a docu ment of the highest value, and he should propose that after the Lord Mayor should have read it to the Court of Common Council it be deposited in a box, and placed in the library of the Corporation. lie (Alderman Humphrey) had with great pride and grati fication witnessed, in the kingdom over which his Majesty presided, the high respect and cordial feeling of hospitality with which his Majesty received the members of the Corporation who had had the honour of waiting upon hina.—(Cheers.) It was impossible to hear the fervent wish of his Majesty for the continuation of the pacific relations of the world, without admiration of the glorious terms in which that feeling was expressed, and an anxious hope that his Majesty might long and happily reign over the great people he so prosperously and happily governed.—(Cheers.) Alderman Humphery then submitted a motion to the effect described in his speecb.—(Great applause.) Sir PETER LAURIE seconded the motion. The exam ple set by the King of the French was one which was indeed worthy of imitation. Rendering the most glo rious services to his own country by promoting the acts of peace, that great monarch contributed largely to the good of all mankind, by exhibiting the affectionate feel ing with which he contemplated the happy symptoms of the continued existence of peace and good-will amongst his fellow-creatures.---(Cheers.) The citizens of Lon don would be delighted with perusing a document, which alluded in such terms of kindness and affection to their own beloved Sovereign, who, as it were, sanctioned and recommended his Majesty's most gracious acknow ledgment.—(Cheers.) The motion was then unanimously, and amidst loud acclamations, agreed to. THE GOLDSMITHS' COMPANY AND THE SPECTACLE MAKERS' COMPANY. A gentleman, who was entitled to the freedom of the Goldsmiths' Company, having applied to be allowed to take his freedom up in the Spectacle-makers' Company instead of the company in which he had the claim, Alderman COPELAND rose to express his disapproba tion of such a course, and requested to be informed whether the applicant had made any application for admission to the Goldsmiths' Company ?—The appli cant replied in the negative. Alderman COPELAND could not see that, possessing the right which the applicant had to take up his freedom in the Goldsmiths' Company,he was at all warranted in coming to the Court in such a matter. The applicant said, his reason for not wishing to belong to the Goldsmiths' Company was, that there was an insurmountable difficulty in obtaining it in that com pany, and he did not know any company more suitable to his purpose. SWORN AND UNSWORN BROKERS. When the Court was occupied in the examination of entlemen who appeared at the bar to be sworn in as brokers, _ Alderman COPELAND took occasion to observe upon the ineffectual efforts he had been for a length of time in the habit of making, to prevent the commission of fraud in the business transacted by brokers, and he ex pressed his regret that there appeared to be no chance of making any reform by the interposition of that Court. After a few observations from Alderman Wilson, Sir Peter Laurie, Alderman Challis, and others, it was or dered, that with the view to the better protection of the public, a list of the brokers sworn in by the Court of Aldermen should be regularly transmitted to the Bank of England. DISTRIBUTION OF THE MEANEE AND HYDERABAD MEDALS. Ml:tow, MARCH 25.—The 24th being the anni versary of the battle of Hyderabad, was selected for the distribution of the medals granted to the 25th Bombay Native Infantry for the battles of Meanee and Hydera bad. The whole brigade were drawn out in review order at 5 P.M., and a large assembly of the beauty and fashion were collected around the flag. The Resident at Indore, Mr. R. N. C. Hamilton, having been requested to dis tribute the medals, arrived on the ground at the ap pointed hour, attended by his escort and suite ; on his approach a salute was fired, and the line presented arms ; after passing down the line, the troops were formed into columns and closed up. The Resident then advancing addressed them in an animated speech, of which the fol lowing is, we believe, a pretty correct copy:— " Lieutenant-Colonel Woodburn, officers and non commissionod officers and privates of the 25th Bombay N.l.,—when I was invited to be present upon this occasion, I little expected that I should be other than a mere spectator of a most interesting scene, bnt when I was asked to take a part in it I felt that a high distinc tion had been conferred upon me in making me the in strument by which the decorations granted by the Supreme Government to this gallant regiment should be distributed. I feel my . own inability to express my self upon such an occasion, but I have the satis faction of knowing that no words of mine could add to the high eulogiums already passed upon the events of which this day is an anniversary. Your gallant deeds have been ably set forth by the distin guished General by whom you were so nobly led, by the Government you have so , bravely served-- and the most pre-eminent:of all distinctions is it—in both Houses of Parliament, by whose unanimous votes their thanks were given to the brave offieers and men en- 1 gaged in the battles of Meanee and Hyderabad. This is an anniversary of which you may well be proud ! Soldiers of the 25th, your gallant bearing in these eventful fights is inscribed in one of the brightest pages of our Indian History ! Of the conduct of the British officers and men it would be needless to speak. courage, the devotion , the discipline of the n a t ive t roo ps in those battle fields, exalted, if possible, the already high character of the Indian Sepoy. The resolute valour with which you were opposed could not check your onward _progress — it was a mortal strife—but, under the guidance of Providence, your indomitable bravery carried out the admirable disposi tions of your illustrious General—the victory was gained ! You vanished an almost countless enemy, brave in their own hearts, confident in themselves, des • Aerate in their resistance ; they yielded to your valorous onslaught—the victory was complete.

Alderman WILSON presented the annual report of those most useful officers the inspectors of the weights and measures of the city of London. It stated, that al though the visits of the inspectors to the tradespeople were by one-sixth more numerous than those of last year, the number of the informations laid within the year was smaller. The following is the sum of the complaints made by the inspectors. It is hoped that some remedy will be applied to the evil, which is one of greater magnitude than it is generally considered to be:— " The poor are defrauded frequently by those trades people who have their goods weighed in packets for their customers—viz., flour by the bakers; tea, sugar, cocoa, &c., by the grocers; snuff and tobacco, &c., by the tobacconists; candles, starch, blue, &c., by the oil men." The practice of some coal dealers is to use small weights t n their machines, in order to confuse their customers who may require say half a hnndredweight of coal. They will use 281 b., 141 b., and 71b., and thus manage to give 71b. short weight, as was proved before the Police Committee a few days ago. The inspectors are constantly coming in contact with cases of the kind, but they cannot interfere. The report was referred to the Gem ral Purposes Committee.—Adjourned. DESTITUTION in the SHETLAND ISLANDS. From a communication dated "Lerwick, 25th May," in the John 0' Groat Journal of Friday last, it appears that famine is spreading rapidly among the Shetlanders. We sincerely trust that public sympathy will be ex tended towards the sufferers without loss of time. The following is part of the communication alluded to : " Want and misery are now written on many a face, where, till now, such had not been scen; and, if not t promptly relieved in some way or other, hey() is great reason to fear that, during the summer , and before the crops can come on so far as to be made available, even in a half-ripe state, for the pressing wants of the popu lation, cases of death, from actual starvation, will be neither few nor rare. During the years 1837-38-39, well named the bad years; the want of food, through these islands, was not greater th an it i s at the present time. At this moment individuals are known to the writer of this who have not tasted bread for a whole week ; and others who have neither tasted bread nor meal, in any shape, for periods varying from ten to fif teen days ; who, when they had scraped together the sum necessary, had to take their bags under their arms, and travel distances of from six to eighteen miles—Zet land miles, too—before they could procure the small quantity of meal which they were able to purchase ; and that, too, at a most exorbitant price. The .break fast of shell-fish has to be gathered in the morTng , at the sea-side, among the rocks, before the cravings of hunger can b e satisfied ; then the next meal, consisting of fish, with p er h aps a f ew potatoes , an d if they have a little meal, fish and bread, or else fish and potatoes, again, before go i ng t o b e d, com prises all that the only ° afford, fish an d potatoes b e i ng the chief, almost they can articles of di e t, an d b re ad being used e like a lux ury than as th e s t a pl e article of food. These are not cases of rare occurrence.
