A decree in the Moniteur announces several judi ciary appointments in the departments. Ttv a Moniteur announces in a communicated note that the President, having been informed of the in tention to g i v e banquets in his honour during his ap- P'roaehir g tour in the departments, has resolved not 'to accept any, however touched he is by these kind attention`. The Presse has commenced publishing a series of letters on the state of Er gland. Three have already been given ; and the following extracts are not a bad specimen of tl:e sort cf inf o r ma ti on commun i ca t e d, and of the writer's knowledge of th e country, who s e habits and manners, as well as institutions, he assumes to describe : " In England," he begins, " every one knows that the whole of the land belongs to the nobility, and that it is inalienable. Thus, in the immense augmen tation each day of the city of London, you must not believe that the builders of houses purchase the soil as complete property—they pay a rent to the lord pro rietor, and the concession of the ground i s on l y f or 9 9 years. Thus the nation is the guest of the nobility —it lodges with " These guests of the nobility' are, it seems, divided into three classes—the agricultural popu lation, who are farmers of lords ; the middle class, which devotes itself to trade, and forms what is called the gentry ; and, lastly, at the lowest step of the ladder, the salaried and poor work. men—the mobility. Of these three classes of guests the dearest to the nobiiity is the agricultural popula tion. This is easily understood ; if the farmers da gocd business more money must enter into the cash box of the lords. If commerce is restrained by the laws, if, for in , tance, the impor'stion of corn is bur eened with a high duty, the English farmers sell their produce with more edvantge, and all goes on for the best in the eyes of the aristocracy. it is true that the gee'r7 will see its commerce destroyed—it is true that the mobility may die of hunger, Stc:' "The intention of the nobility is obvious, viz., to annihilate this laborious gentry, that is, the inde fatigable people of Lor.don, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool —to kill the real English nation, the flood (still meaning the gentry) which mounts each day, in\ ading Greet Britain, and carrying the vessel of the States" After so accurately defining the different classes into which the English people are divided, and ex citing our compassion on behalf of those oppressed tradesmen and manufacturers, the gentry, he says that " There are immense quarters in London that count 30,000 inhabitants, but do not send a deputy to Par liament. There are in England four or five classes of electors. The constitution of these classes reposes on reasons the most absurd and ridiculous—on usage, on a bit of parchment, on the arbitrary will of the Lords, &c." The name of this accurate correspondent who thus enlightens M. Emile Girardin, and who bids fair to outstrip M. 14<tdru Rollin himself, is Erdau. It was in the Presse that, in an article on penitentiary re form in England, the treadmili was seriously spoken of as an article of dietary. AL Erdau's lucubrations on the "gentry" and the voting by parchment, &c., beat the treadmill hollow.

The only conclusion which a contemporary thinks it necessary to draw from this atrocious outrage is, that the Irish are very bad mob fighters, and that they had better keep quiet, because they are sure to be "thrashed." If this it to be the high-minded tone adopted by English journals, every man who has the misfortune to think with the minority on any parti culer question ought to lose no time in providing him self with a brace of Colt's revolvers. If fourteen thou sand Roman Catholics are to have their houses gutted, and their altars profaned, simply because they happen, under the pressure of famine and distress, to have sought work and wages among their Protestant fellow subjects, we had better at once exchange the Statutes of the Realm for the Institutes of Lynch, and ask Lord Campbell to undertake the execution of the summary jurisdiction. Iu ltely, or in Spain, such a justification of the violence of the majority may be safe enough, because the majority for the time being is secure from retaliation. Bat in an empire like that of Great Britain, where the pcpulation is composed of different races and religious communities, and where parties are more equally matched, it is by no means certain that the game will ba altogether one-sided. The English Protestants may have it all their own way in Lancashire, but if Roman Catholics are to be chal lenged to a war, literally pro aris et fen's, what is to become of the Protestant; in Tipperary ? Are the in signia of as " alien" Church less obnoxious to the Iris h Roman Catholic than doves and crosses to the cowardiy,tinnuwt;:e' Stockport Protestants? Our contemporary may think it e fo a r re st o p it of opinion that it would be most snmption that Iris : , s t tterestnan to act upon the es te be thrashed.

Mr. Philip Pasey &gain offers his services as one of the Members for Berkshire, and though ho is a landed proprietor of old family, and one of the first, if not the very fi rs t, o f our agriculturists, the Tory squires are opposing his re-election. Several years ego Mr. Pusey introduced a Bill to give to tenant farmers ample tenant rights ; and when that was rejected by the landlord interest of the House of Commons, he brought in various modified Bills intended to effect as much of the same desirable objects as landlord prejudices would admit. He was also the means of procuring the Select Committee of inquiry into the agricultural customs of England and Wales, by which a mass of evidence has been collected which will hereafter be used on behalf o f t h e farme rs w he never they shall have any real representatives in Parliament. Mr P us ey has also introduced and promoted various measures for enabling the owners of settled estates to expend money in improvement and charge it on their property. That he has not accomplished more decisive good in this direction, is accounted for by the fact, that he stood almost alone in the House of Commons as the advocate of the farmers' interests. The votes, if not the goodwill of the farmers, have hitherto been given to the glib professors of "Protection," while Mr. Pusey last year of fended some of his constituents by declining to join them in an agitation for the revival of protection to agriculture, which he told them was hopeless, and could only end, as it has ended, in disappointment. And now the politicians who ex cited opposition to Mr. Pusey because he would not join in a wild goose chase which they as well as he knew to be hopeless, have abandoned Protection with the greatest facility. It was because Mr. Pusey would not march through Coventry with the loud lunged Protectionist crew, that Mr. Vansittart was set up against him ; but if there be any power amongst the Berkshire farmers of distinguishing real friends from false—a practical improver in politics and in agriculture from a shallow pretender to the performance of an impossibility, there cannot be a doubt that Mr. Pusey will be re-elected by a decisive majority. . _ . The following circular, which has been issued by Mr. Vansittart's committee, is a piece of the grossest impertinence which has come under our notice : Berkshire Election,-Maidenhead, 19th June, 1852. Sir,—The committee for conducting the election of George Henry Vansittart, Esq., will feel particularly obl.gcd by your signing one of the declarations on the other sLie, and returning the same as addressed at your eaxliait convenience, to enable the committee to compleite their returns.—l em, sir, your very obedient servant, FRED. T. WARD. Appended to this is a fly-leaf, with Mr. Ward's address printed at the back, which is in these terms : Berkshire Election, 1852.—T0 the Committee for con ducting the election of G. H. VANSITTART, EN : I intend to vote for Mr. VANSITTART. Signed I do not, intend to vote at all. A more i m p u de nt electio ' gSigtnriecdk— ne was never I perpetrated. S ure l y the people er o in f Berkshire will not allow th emse l ves to be used in this way without re -1 renting the insult. Going infinitely in advance of Mr' Pusey in general politics, the sympathy of the Daily News must yet be strongly in favour of his re-e i e c ti on — t i nce h e is an agricultural reformer ; whilst his opponents aro obstructives of the most in tolerant class. No man deserves the support of the farmers as muchUs Mr. Pusey, for the decisive blow he has dealt t.t the system of game preserving in the evi dence he gave before the Seltct Committee on the Game•laws. Mr. Pusey toll the Committee he once preserved game, but that observation hail satisfied him that his tenants had suffered so much loss from his game, that 133 gave up preserving, and discharged his gamekeepers. The following passage from his evidence on vie, occa.iion ought to secure him the vote of every Berkshire farmer who dares to call his vote his own. Mr. Pusey said—" One of the points which made me come to the determination of giving up preserving was, finding that my own gamekeeper, who bad got three or four acres of land near his house in the covers, after cultivating it for eight or t en y e ars, said at la s t h e must give it up because it did not pay him ; it would ruin him ; and then it occurred to me to consider what was the case with my keepers' neighbours round the covers." That was a lesson to landlords, and the man who read it deserves the grateful support of all the tenant farmers. Then who stands higher amongst the practical im provers of English husbandry than Mr. Pusey ? Who has done so much by his sound and rational treatment of agricultural literature, to disseminate, compare, and elucidate the best practices of the various rural districts ? Who has done more to vindicate the tenant farmers from imputations of want of enterprise or intelligence ? Look at his report to the Royal Commission on the agricultural implements of the Great Exhibition, which is at once an exponent of the triumphal progress of agricultural mechanics and a most judicious lecture on improvements in husbandry. He has marked how good implements enable the farmer to perform his work more cheaply and more effectively ; shown how rapidly the cost of these implements has decreased, while they have be come more and more perfect every year ; that the rural implements in the Exhibition " afforded not the least conspicuous testimony to the advance of English skill in devising mechanical means for the abridgment of labour ;" and, though last not least, that modern machinery has given to farming what i; most wanted —comparative certainty. Truly may it be said that Mr: Pusey is the most apt repre sentative of the progressive agriculture of the day ; and though doubtless Berkshire will, as she ought, claim as her own his :services in the next Parliament, yet, if there be any man who can be said to be the appropriate repre,entative of the collective tenantry of England, it is Mr. Pusey ; and for such men there will be work to do in the next Parliament. The law of landlord and tenunt—tne landlord power of distraint—the want of security for the tenant farmers' capital—the game-laws—and a variety of similar topics, in which the farmers are deeply in terested, will all require the aid of such calm and reflective minds as Mr. Pusey's to accomplish the amendments so urgently needed. Surely, then, Mr. Pusey must be re • electecl.—A PRACTICAL REFORMER. —Daily News. RAILWAY BILLS. On the last day of the late session the House of Lords passed a resolution altering the Standing Order No. 185, known as " Lord , Wherneliffe's," which re quired that incorporated companies promoting Bills in Parliament should at a Certain stage prove before the Standing Order Committee o f t h e L ards that such Bills had been approved by four-fifths of the prop r i etors, present at a general meeting specially convened for that purpose. ;The alterations in the standing orders referred to are :to - the effect that on giving tbo usual ten days' notice by circular to the proprivors of su c h meeting blank proxies are to be inclosed for the use of such proprietors, and that on holding the meeting proof be given that such Bill was submit te d and approved of by proprietors present in person, or by, proxy, holding at least three-fourths of the paide l p capital of the com pany represented at such meeti ng by qualified pro pr • ietors The alteration was made with the view of doing away with the practice o f dividing stock among numerous persons, so as to obtain the largest number of states out of a given amount of stock, and thus, by a comparatively small amount of stock, to enable adverse parties to outvote the proprietors at a m eet i ng . This was alleged to be the case in respect to th e meetings of the Shrewsbury and Chester, and Shrewsbury_aael Bir mingham Railway Companies, and in , coeeequ eeme these companies Were prevented ,compteang with the standing, order of the Lorelse.efter baying passed the o r d eal of the Commons; and the result was, that the Amalgama tion Bill .wa s rejected, and the arrangement Bill for se curingw, railway (viii the Great fr s o r m eou L d on r d o o u n te an b d y the South of England to Liverpool, Birkenhead, did Manchester, was mutilated stern) a by striking out ail that related to the Shrewsbury c t a h m e - t consequence of a non compliance with _ panies in Great disap pointment on public standing order. . u .. 4 . on o _ grounds was felt with regard to them the House the latter Bill, and the refusal of . this of Lords to suspend the standing d order r originally ease, particularly as this_ standing order the pre required a majority of only ll and f Bill, that subsequently 'ureters to approve 0- a to without proper investigation of inquiry, it was altered . f i, ""ftl ". This was considered a great hardship by Le pull, * thei*oniotingßills, as the majority in each ca" was n acre thaw - fifths of the proprietors, repre sented three . - seated at tbe ' Iteration requires that three-fourths of 'meeting. The a resented at the meeting shall vote in favour eepital represented t pass the Com mittee, s 0 t h at ins Z a a 13111 in order o 40 , 0001. of stock divided among s large of 30,000/. or . n the em vote or . o PP osi in tu te l r 'lr t ef young m" - I tto out vote the bona fi de propriewers 8' being sufficient quire a much larger amount o a f at ameeting, it will same re object, and at the same' capital to effect tbe t acted on, will enable two or three persons to d o e ' it quire as many hundred persons to m el ti e n t bg what would re tion. Perso ns acquainted with the efore the altera and powerful railway companies knozesources of large siderable amount of capital may be borrtohat a very cen time to enable the directors or officials, : a t , for a short be, to upset the votes of the proprietors of A 1.4 Zs: may pany, and thus frustrate the passing of a 1311 i cal stand ing orders in a more c om pl ete manner than before, d less liable to d e t ect i on. a r id Then with respect to the shareholders of the.company promoting any Bill, the standing order, as anunded, will, by menus of th e p rox i es authorised thereby, cora -1 pietely take the power out of the hands of the shareholders.' It is well known that in utmost every case where the directors have the power to apply to the great body of shareholders fur proxies in support cf any measure, good cr bad, they are'errtaha to obtain tl,e majority of votes 6t any Met tit/ff.: --The-standing order, as amended, j _ will have just the opposite effect to that originally in tended—viz., to protect the minority and enable them to prevent the passing of injurious measures. It will enable directors to car/ any Bill they please in TATI E S UN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 5, defiance of the active portion of the share holders. This will probably raise the whole ques tion wthteth r eh r j g e rt e r t d ien t a e el t e he u c s o , ud c u l ct p ( r ) o f r xie; ilw h a e y iee no g e in eg g tin te s parties who are not only necessarily ignorant of the arguments used at the meetings against the measures whin the proxies are sent to support, but they are fre cioasutrhees they thus v be traced measures ma o; by the shareholders of improvident leases, guarantees, uteeeftolyr, ignorant ora to ut theifs the source nature and worthless branch lines, by which in many cases the original capital has been rendered wholly unproductive. It is believed that there is a large section of proprietors in railway companies who never vote on any question, either in person or by proxy, and it is calculated that they amount to. one-third of the whole. These per. sons it appears trust entirely to the directors, the Lords, and the Commons, and many of them have suff,lred wofully for their confidence. If proxies are to be ussd in accordance with the standing order as altered, the publication of the list of shareholders repre sented at each meeting, with the amount of stock, and its circulation among the shareholders, may prevent misrepresentation and enable the Committee to ascertain the correctness of the return. Then, again, in sending proxies to proprietors, officials will naturally take care that those shareholders who invariably vote in favour of the directors shall have proxies sent them, but some of the other shareholders may not be fortunate enough to receive either a notice or a proxy; they maY complain, but can have no redress unless they attend the meeting, should they happen to know of it. Th e chairmen of the Great Western, the Great Northern, and the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway Compa nies, have represented to Lord Derby the propriety of restoring the majority to three-fifths of the proprietors present, and of rendering an investigation imperative in stead of permissive, as to the bona fid es of t h e parties voting, whenever complaints be made by petition from either party to the House of Lords.

ROYAL ARTILLERY, JULY 4.—There Will not be any review at Woolwich to-morrow, July 5. 1852, IMPORTANT TRIALS OF " THE ANCHORS OF ALL NATIONS" AT HER MAJESTY'S DOCK YA,RE), St-lEERNFSS Toe ton gee , , ea,-rt represent.e4 the cemteercial maritime interests—vez., Mestir, Dutican Dunbar, W. S. Lindsay, W. Phillips, Anthony Ridley, and William Drew, arrived on Weenesday evening at Smithson's Royal Hotel, Bankstown, Sheerness, where apartments had previously been engaged, and precisely at nine o'clock the following morning they proceeded to her Majesty's dockyard, and were received by Captain the Hon. Mon tagu Stoplord, chairman, Captain Superintendent Hope, Captain George R. Mundy, Messrs. Jonathan Aylen. the master attendant, and Jatnei Tonkin, the master of her Mejesty's ship Waterloo, 120 guns, who afterwards assembled in the captain superintendent's office. The anchor committee or jury as above, thus composed of six highly scientific naval officers and the before mentioned eminent shipowners, toga her with Captain Courtney, Lloyd's surveyor of shipping, adopted pro forma the following excellent resolutions:— " 1. Resolved, that the committee approve of Mr. J. Aylen's plan for trying anchors in the yard, being adopted. "2. That Mr. Aylen's plan for trying anchors in the yard be applied to anchors placed on the beach under water. " 3. That Mr. Aylen's plan for trying anchors at sea be adopted. " 4. That the trials be open to anchors of all nations. "5. That the weight of the anchors for these trials be 25 cwt,, inclusive of the stock. " That such of the anchors as the committee shall con sider to have proved themselves superior at the preli minary tests should be afterwards subjected to such further tests as the committee may decide on by means of two steamers at sea, with regard to holding, bring ing up, and tripping. " 7. That every anchor previous to being allowed to enter into competition, must be tested at Woolwich. " 8. That the anchors, eight in number, be duly landed at Woolwich for testing on the Ist of May, and at Sheer ness on the Ist of July, " 9. That the committee do not - hold themselves re sponsible for any loss or damage that may be sustained by the anchors, nor be liable for any expense in bring ing them to or taking them from Sheerness. " MONTAGU STOPPORD, Chairman." " SUGGESTIONS FOR THE TRIAL OF ANCHORS OF ALL NATIONS. " Proper qualities for a good bower anchor, viz. : strength ; holding, particularly when at a short stay and being obliged to make sail ; weight and facility for stowage ; quick holding ; sweeping, tripping; fouling ; fishing in a - heavy sea-way and stowing. " At the testing ground in the dockyard a four-fold purchase to be attached to each anchor, the falls to be toggled to a pendant and jewel block, with one purchase to be brought to a capstan. " The testing ground to be marked for the anchors and their turn for trial to be drawn for ; from the cap stan those to the right will be marked starboard, and those to the left port ; numbers to commence from the extreme ends of the testing ground. " The pee of the anchor to be placed in its berth ac cording to the number drawn, and atter testing their burying properties the cables (being already rove in the testing blocks), are then to be trieed to the sheerheads, agreeably to the wishes of the committee, to test their holding qualities with a short scope of cable. " SECOND TRIAL PLAN.—At the testing -ground, on the beach, the barn() rules are to t.e observed as in the dockyard, and another turn for trial to be drawn for, the pea of the anchor to be placed at low water. mark, if agreeable to the wishes of the Committee, the purchase to be nearly the same as that used in the dockyard, with one capstan. Chain cables to he used. " THIRD TRIAL, AS PER PLAN —A mooring-lighter to be moored at the Little Nore; her rudder to be unshipped; the bridles to be of hemp, attached to the moorings; to be taken in over the stern, with sufficient let , ol to veer, if required, 30 or 40 fathoms ; Lius e laid iierisa the tide, tide. Anutr. e s r T t tizrAnmf o T r ß t l r A itto A b s e ( P I r E a R w n p , to A r N . A siz, of the cable . to be 15 inches; th e moorings to b in order that the t r i a l s may Wee place with the flJod or en , b , steamer of not l‘bs than 300, burs() power to be used ; both anchors for t sting to be let go at the same time ; the depth of water, and the speed of the steam (to go with a back turn), agreeably to the wishes of tne Committee. " MONTAGU STOPFORD, Chairman. " Sheerness Dockyard, June A printed copy of which was handed to each owner of the several anchors, eight in number, and in their perfect fairness all acquiesced, and pursuant thereto lots were accordingly drawn for. Mr. Honiball (patentee of Porter's anchor) and Mr. Aylen having respectively drawn No. 1, port and star board, were first placed in competition; then Mr Mitcheson's against an American patent; Trotman' against Rodger'S; and G. W. Lennox's versus Admi ralty. The successful anchors in the above series of trials proved to be those of Messrs. Honiball, Mitcheson, Trotman, and the Admiralty. These again were pitted against each other, Mr. Honiball's beating Mitcheson's; and Trotman's, the Admiralty anchors. Therefore the palm for superiority had literally as well as practically to be determined between that of Mr. Honiball and Mr. Trotman's, as both partake of the same principle, and differing only as regards the peculiar angle of the palm in Mr. Trotman's anchor displa)ing great ingenuity. Much credit is due to Messrs. Wood Brothers, of Liver pool and Saltney iron -works, makers of this, and equally so that of Mr. Honiball's, the two best anchors, practi cally proved and determined, and as such, preferable to mere theoretical arguments, which must have prevailed with the Exhibition jurors in awarding their medal to Lieutenant Rodgers, the merits of whose anchor can only be deemed fourth-rate at most, having been each time practically beaten, and thrice in succession. Admiral the Hon. Josceline Percy evinced the greatest possible interest in these most interesting trials; so also did the naval officers of the different ships in port, &c., and officers generally of the dockyard. To Captain the Hon. Montagu Stopford, as chairman, much credit is due for his great urbanity of manner and decision of character, which tended to sec ure unani mity and go o d feeling throughout, as the trials pro gressed, and to those gentleman also who have gene rously given their valuable time on behalf of the great commercial maritime interests; and their decisions will subserve the purposes of humanity, by se curing an efficient anchor for those whose lot in life may at any time be cast upon the wide waters, amid the dan gers of the ocean. The second series of trials will be commeeczd upon as soon as the necessary arrangements are completed, pro bably Thursday n , xt. and tollowing days. RECK - OF AN .'MIGRANT loss AN of T the e r The follo wing is an account of SH IP, Watson, passenger ship to Port Philip, which sailed from Ply mouth on the 31 of December last, as given in an extract from a private letter:— " Melbourne, March 27. " My dear --,—We are all sate and well, but have been shipwrecked off Point Nepean, at the entrance of Port Philip Heads. Aher a most pleasant and pros perous voyage we made Cape Otway Light on last Sa turday night, and considered our voy age us nearly ended. Sunday proved calm, and we stood along the land, as happy as people could well be; about tour o'clock on Sunday af. ernoon we had a squall of wiud, and came along at a fair rate, about nine knots an hour; between five and six we ran up our signal for a pilot and shorterg d sail. We were all on deck talking and chatting when the ship struck on the point'uf the reef; the helm was rut about, and the nece.sary steps taken to bring the ship's head to sea again; she again struck, and apparently passed over the danger. I hurried A-- and the chil dren into the cuddy, and then went and secured my money belt; the ship struck again, and, unfortunately, our helm was carried away; she broached to, and drifted broadside on the rocks; the mists away, and we expected every moment were instantly cut to be our last; the sea mad e a c l ean breach over us, and we prepared ourselves for the worst, I cut away A--- , petticoat, and the other two ladies in thec t ud t d a y ke followed e my example, s_._s_._o-- volunteered nd n H clung of the baby.

Her courage and devotedness saved her life, as every soul but one in the lifeboat was drowned before our eyes. To resume. Seven women and one man got into the lifeboat, the captain standing in the boat to steady her, and using every exertion to place them in safety, when, dreadful to relate, the boat turned right over, and the whole were immersed in the water, and all save one (Mrs. Patterson) drowned. There were drowned Mrs. Derrick, Mrs. Hall, Mrs, Lan g f ord, Mrs. Orphelt, all young ng married women; Miss All en, Mi ss Patterson, Mr. Orelt, and Mr. Langford in endeavouring to save remained in awful su nse till Monday morning at day spe his wife.

It appeared f rom the evidence which was taken at some length, that the prosecut r i x lodged at Moun t Ephraim Cottag e of the 233 Ilk Tunbridge Well s , a nd on the shemorning quitted the hou se f o r the purpose of taking a walk, leaving her watch on the table in the front sitting-room, She returned home a little after one o'clock, and missed it immediate)y. She then went and informed th e superinten d ent o f her loss. Mr. Mor ton, the head of the police, returned to the house with 11. ,, r. and feeli satisfied that the robbery was committed by London thieves, he procured the assistance of ono of his officers, and proceeded in a vehicle down the London road. When he arrived at Crowhurst, 23 miles from Tunbridge W ells, ho perceived Lennox standing in front of a public-house, and, knowing him to be a Lon don thief, he followed him into the house, and ascer tained that both prisoners had just arrived from Ton bridg,e Wells, with an extraordinary swift horse and chaise. He took the prisoner Lennox into custody, and Mills was apprehended in the stable by the consta ble who accompanied him. He (Mr. Morton) searched the prisoners and their chaise, after which he went into the stable where the horse was standing, and in a few minutes the watch and appendages were discovered. Other corroborative testimony having been given, the magistrate com milted them to Maidstone Gaol for trial. THE BATHS OF .HOMBURG. A letter from the baths of Homburg of the 28th ult. says—" 'Our summer seasons has never been more animated or brilliant than it is at present. Balls and concerts succeed each other every day, and the aristocracy of every nation flock hither to partake in the pleasures and amusements of the baths. The opening of this new salons of the Casi no t ook place recently ; these two magnificent rooms, th e work of th e celebrated . Belgian architect, Cluysenear, are much admired for their rare elegance, for their spa cious extent, and far the luxury and sumptuousness of their decorations. The Casino of Homburg has nothing to envy at any bathing establishment in Eu rope. It now appears to be the finest and the most comfortable resort of fashion. The official list of foreigners contains the names of more than 1,500 fa milies who have corn,: to Homburg since the opening of the season. Among the visitors of high distinction we remark their Serene Highnesses the Duke and Duchea of Sobleswig-Hol4teiu-Augustenbourg, with the Princes Frederic and Christian, and the Princesses Louise Auguste, Caroline Amelia, and Henrietta, their sons and daughters; his Serene Highness Prince Ghika, from Bucharest; his Excellency Prince de Wittgenstein the Marquis and Marchioness: of Lon donderry-, Earl Munster, and Earl of Morton ; the Countess of Morton, with her family; the lion. Sir W. Melville and Sir Augustus Vernon; the Duke and Duchess de Ranziin ; the Countess Gourieff ; Baroness de Cetto (nee de D eux -P onte ) ; hi s Ex cellency the Count de Briey, Envoy of the King of the Belgians to the Germanic Confederation ; Count de Pourtale., Chamberlain of his Majesty the King of Prussia, fro m Paris ; his Excellency President de Musser, of Wiesbaden ; the Marchioness de San Milan, from Mexico ; his Excellency Count de Bernstorff, ex-Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Countess de Bernstorff, from Ber lin ; the Hungarian Count de Rovacz ; Count Frederic d'Erbach-Erbach ; Baron Osy, member of the Belgian Chamber of Representatives ; Count d'lncisii, from Turin; Baron de Blitteradorf, ex-President of 'the Council of the Grand Doehy'o l Baden, from Manheim ; Count de• -$33 zenbeck, from 14of4Sweletje n ,ri n i n ai d e S hit tip m er b i e n r t l e a n i d n en of t Warsaw ; Count de ohfis Maje styiheo oer t irn ile ent in Norway; the Baron de Belle froid, ex-member of the States-General of Holland, from the Hague." THE SEWERS COMMISSION AND THE GOVERNMENT: The last step taken in the Sewers Commission was not a wise one. The most eminent of the engineers who accepted the unpaid offices of Commissioners of Sewers were on the point of resigning, we believe, on the occa sion of the refusal of Sir Charles Wood, the last Chan cellor of the Exchequer, to remove the technical diffi culties to the borrowing of money, which prevented the execution of the large dra ina g e works for the metropolis, of which the plans had bee n a pp roved . The condition of things at that time was fully pointed out in the sp eec h of Lord Ebrington at the close of the last session, on the Sewers Bill, which we have before now quoted. Th e Commissioners were then persuaded to remain in office. On the accession of the new Government, some annoy ance was expressed at the mode in which the present Sewers Bill was brought forward, without consideration of the Commissioners' propositions. On the death of Mr. Lewes we understand that the expression of a hope was conveyed to the proper authorities that no one would be appointed chairman who would not be accept able to the Commissioners. in this respect they appear, however, to have been as little consulted as they were upon the proposed Bill. No personal objection is felt to the chairman who has just been appointed: he is alike stranger to the Commissioners and to the works, and indeed to the law and practice on the subject. But, as if their own legal secretary would not furnish sufficient law, a legal chairman is main appointed, while what was wanted on the Commission was a man well versed in the suLject-matter with which he would have to deal,—one is wbona Vie Commissioners could place confidence, not for his law, but for his superior powers of management and direction in an important and difficult trust,—a man who would assist the Commissioners, and not one wuom they may be required to assist. This is the reported . some other POtttion of tbe C o mmission, and the result is, from this 0 ca use, that Sir William Cubits, Mr. Ro bert Stephenson, Mr. Pete, and Mr. Rendel have now sent in their resignations, which have, we believe, been ace ePted Who will say when the Thames is to be Pnrified?—Builder.

COUNT WIAIIKETS. MANCHESTER, JULY 3 . — Throughout the week the weather has been showery, with occasional high winds. During the same . period no material change has oc curred in the state of our market; firmness has con tinued to characterize the fl air trade, a steady, but by no m ans bri•k, demand having been experienced for fresh m9de parcels on fully previous terms, whilst oat meal mr,ved off rather more Neely than of late. We have again to notice fair arrivals of foreign wheat and Indian corn, together with a liberal supply of flour, but with the exception of a moderate quantity of oatmeal from Irelaud the receipts thence and coastwise at Liver pool ard Runcorn continue on a limited scale. At our Corn Exchange this morning only a moderate emoting of businesa was transacted in the leading articles of the trade, without variation from the currency of this day se'nnigh t. WORCESTER, JULY 3.—There was a good attendance at market to day, and the sales of wheat were limited, mihsrs looking for a reduction in price, which farmers are unwilling to aubmit to. English white wheat averaged 16s 6d per bag, and red from 15s to 15s 6d per bag of three bushels. Malting barley at from 3s 9d to 4s per bushel, and distilling 3s 6d to 33 Bd. New English beans 4s 6d to 4s 8d per bushel; old 4s 8d to 4s 10d; foreign, none on offer. Old English oats, as 6d to 3s 9d per 391 b; and new, 3s to 3s 6d; Irish oats, 2s 10d to 3 9 * Spring vetches sold at 4s to 4s 2d; and winter, from 46 6d to ss. No demand of consequence for peas. At Stourbi idge market on Friday the trade in wheat was dull, and former prices were reluctantly paid by the millers and factors. Barley continued firm at about the prices of that day se'nnight. Oats firm at former rates. Beans and peas were of snore value (Is per quarter) in consequence of the disease in the growiug crop of the former. At Wolverhampton market there was a fair seasonable supply of grain on sale, but millers and dealers only put' chased in small quantities, and prices were hardly so well maintained as at the previous market day. English white wheat was worth from 5s 6d to 5s 10d per 621 b, and red 5s 2d to 53 4d. Grinding barley in moderate request at 27s to 28s per 3921 b. No demand for malting. English beans were a good sale at is per quarter ad vance. Old beans bring 14s to 14s 6d, and new 13s 6d to 14s per 1961 b. English oats found a ready sale at 221 to 23s per 3121 b; Irish about 20s to 21e. At Kidderminster market on Thursday the sale for wheat was dull at the rates of last week. But little barley, beans, or peas on offer. GLOUCESTER, JULY 3.—The market was not so firm Si on this thy week, the apprehension of a short crop being allayed by present fine weather. Millers would not buy at present rates except in retail prices. English red wheat is worth about 4s 9d to ss, and whits Sc to 5s 4d per bushel. Oats 21s to 23s per quarter for Et.glish, and 198 to 21s for Irish, with a slow demand. English beans 4s 4 , 1 to 4s 6d per bushel; French about 4s, and Egytian 3s 8d and 3s 10d. NOTTINGHAM, JULY 3.—Yesterday, at Derby, the trade iu wheat Was slow, at a decline of 6d to 18 a quarter. Beans were is request at is advance. Other (lungs as last reported. W neat, red, 398 to 42s per 3 6 stone; ditto, white, 45s to 48s. Barley, for grinding, 283 to 30s per 30 stone. Oats, 21s to 24s per 24 stone. Beans, old, 34s to 37s per 38 stone. Flour, 29s to 3181 super, 33. to 34s per 20 stone. We had a limited de mand for wheat at our own market to-day, and although there was not much offering by the growers, last week's price. were barely maintain( d. Oats and beans wet* quite as dear. The present prices of grain and flour in Nottingham are as follow:—Wheat, white, old, 45s to 48s p. r 36 stone; new, ditto, 42s to 483; red, 388 to 425.

DUBLIN, JULY 2.—We note no alteration in the cur rencies of our corn-market since Tuesday for any description of home grain. Indian corn being rather scarce, buyers for immediate use were obliged to give full prices, but the transactions were small.

CORK, JULY 2. The trade during the week has been characterised by some little dulness, which has taken the place of the firmness and briskness manifested last week. The ar rivals from abroad have been very trifling. The receipts of home grain have fallen off altogether, and are now entirely unworthy of notice. The business passing in foreign wheat has been moderate. The trade, having supplied themselves pretty freely last week, are now h ilding off; and the dull advises from the English side having affected the market, the transactions in all de scriptions of W heist are limited, though we cannot quota any alteration in prices. In oais there is literally no thing doing. For fine flour we experience a moderate eaueeseptive demand, at last week's prices. Coarse Flour also meets as good an inquiry as of late. The trade in Indian corn is dull, and the business passing restricted to the supply of the more immediate wants of purchasers, while prices are scarcely maintained. .We qty-te the extreme value of galatz 8/. per ton. 1 8 09 0 arr uB W e iar i t h a t i loo te y Od to 00s Od 00sttidrr—engitens 0 Ditto .........00s 00 8 t id d tt t 00 0 00(1)02„008sal odod 00s Od-00 do 5d 0 Bere ,$) ; D,,_atttiso ..... ...s Od to 00s Od Os 04 v ( 3 ) Oa t; ........ ..10s 2d to ILs Pd ......... 003 Od to 00s Od 10; 104-0 do , _ ... ..... 00s Od to 00s Od u rigs ........... ols Od to 00s Od 00s Od per cwt Quantity sold at the Highest Prices:- 0 barrels white wheat ; 0 red ; I barley ; 0 bere ; 8 eats; 0 pigs.

It appears that Mr. Catlin, in his zeal to enhance the value of his collection, has involved himself in pecuniary difficulties to such an extent that, unless Congress speedily interferes, all his paintings and curiosities must be sold at auction, and irreclaimably scattered. In a letter to a friend, he makes a pathetic appeal to Congress, that his collection may be saved to the country, which can be done, if done quickly. He reminds the statesmen of our country that such records cannot be again collected. We hope this appeal may not prove fruitless.—New York Express.. BIRTHS. OF A SON.
