The R.

For the labour performed, therefore, the economical management of the recent spectacle in Hyde-park is probably unpa ralleled in th is country; and we sincerely hope that in that respect the Crystal Palace Company will not be too self-confident to imitate a safe and prudent example.

P i ßl E iT s._ o ri f b t e he ah l y ' s U s Fs a Ll i C j Louis Bonaparte is plunging the French nation seems to become daily more unfathomable. No sooner have we explored one portion of the gloomy gulf in which the past, the present, and the future of Prance seem to be buried, than we are aware of lower depths and daaker shadows. We have ransacked ancient history to afford us parallels in order to bring mere vividle to our own minds end those of our readers a state of things for which mocia.rn Europe, happily, amid all its disorders and retrogression, affords no precedes;. Tee games of Philip or Cominodus may faintly image the fetes and spectacles offered to Paris in exchange for her liberty, and the annals of Rome before the Reformation may efford miracles as false and demands as shameless as those of the Bishop of Lucon ; but for his last stroke of genius the Presi dent need fear no historic parallel; it is happily unique and original, a Napoleonic idea, and only Na poleonic. The effort of the President has been not merely to enslave the country which, seduced by oaths and promises, trusted her liberty in his faithless hands, but to make - the nation itself the accom plice in its own degradation. Repression is carried to such " e ztentan d she power exerted is so , peremptory a n d absolute, that people are com pelled not merely to acquiesce, but to take an active and eager interest in rivetting their own fetters. Domitian, as Tacitus tells us, kept_a register of men's sighs. Louis Bonaparte must haie his every act of aggression welcomed with smiles. Many h ave , snatched absolute power by v i o l ence, or clutched it by fraud; he clone demands as a g if t that which be asaright. But, more than this of his pe o pl e entreaties for he eas puts alre in ad to y takenthe mouths slavery and petitions for degradation, sanctioned and enforced by an appeal to the deepest and tenderest passions of human nature. If it were possible to rais e a free voice or wield a free pen in France, there is no topic to which the writer or orator would so readily resort as the blighted hopes and ruined destinies of the rising generation of Frenchmen. "You are content," Constant might have said or Courier have written e --, power as r ` v ` i y on o i n al a u r e e a c s o f n r t a e u n d t to d fore f g or o c a e ll that your Be c . estors conquered for you, for yourselves, and to bow before a Your lives and libertiessquande much more odious than that of the Grand are worse than here ditary claim s an d an wi f whom mu youplea please , may think t h h i e storic traditions. fi it so. your children ! They, de a m p t r i l are your own, and you y, them on any adventurer wi th !Lifer than yourselves. But veeadst,bwere born into free dom; they were not own of this right, and they from you. Let natural affection s ch i any act of their of public spirit, and, if not for your sake, at any your lands and claim its continuance supply the defects for theirs, be free. You leave them rate your goods ; leave them also the inheritance of equal law and popular government, without Which the pro prietor is a ry ot, and the millionaire a mere deposi tory for the State." Will it be believ e d t h at thisin very appeal, so irresistibly urging to freed om, L e , Napoleon Bonaparte is now making to Fr ance, or rather requiring France to make to him, in order that he may perpetuate her slavery ? On beh a lf of the children whom they may fondle on their knees, as they value the h o p e s of the dearest obj ects of parental love, the fathers of France are instructed to beseech Louis Bonaparte to break yet on e more oath by declaring his power perpetual, and thus to secure the future of millions, whose existence they are made to assure him hangs upon his breath. There is something in this passing the limits of ordi nary degradation, and the very sacrament of nature is profaned and invaded when the love of the parent for his child is put forward as a ground for selling him into servitude. Let our readers judge for them selves. There is now printed and circulated in. France a petition to the Senate, prepared by an ardent supporter of the President, under the direc tion of the Minister of the Interior, for the re-es teblishment of hereditary power in the person of Louis Bonaparte. This document, which we have elsewhere given at length, purports to be signed by fathers of families and labourers. It states, that in a country like France all interests are placed under the sovereign influence of the Chief of the State; that who is to be this chief ought not to he made a periodical question ; that otherwise a father cannot possibly know the politico: conjuncture under which be will provide for the marriage of the child whom be fondles upon his knee; that therefore such a presidency cannot satisfy the loftiest and sweetest sentiments of parental and conjugal love; that, were it otherwise, the births ought in a peculiar manner to correspond to the renovation of the Executive; and that the present generation, having conquered anarchy, would violate all the duties which it owes to succeeding generations if it were to allow the prin ciple of resistance to be individualized ; and prays, for these and other reasons, that Louis Napoleon may be invested with an hereditary succession. We can imagine no grosser insult offered to any nation than that contained in this really official document. Go vernment in France, where the Moniteur lately as.. sured us "an essay was being made of the most un boonulyndgeudeslitbioeu is in liberty," is whosealwayhsatnds that obeab absolute an p d ow th er e is petition, ae o m n o pisliathoebde f v a e e s t te ; d. au D d, esp ae o o ti o s r m din in g F to ra to other form of government is possible. All that can be done for future generations is to make it stable and permanent, and, in order to gratify the affectionate yearnings of fathers of fames,irto vestige deprive posterity of th e last the power of selecting her own master. So com pletely are the people of France considered to be the property of their present and future rulers, that it is even suggested, in ••o f • • l a nd dbn - a spirit ironies . , temptuous exaggeration, that no parent ougas___,_t° bring up a child except he be born at the particula r period at which the change of dynasty is to take place. Fra nce h as lost all control over her own des tiny ; she cannot tell what will become of her—she does not presume to offer an opinion on the subject. All she wishes is, that the last relic of influence over her fate may be LA:taken from her for ever. The father tin be has, as . far as of a family cannot be happy, human institutions can, deprived his unconscious f regaining the freedom off spring of the last possibility degenerateo hands. "It was which has slipped from his tedliess" in the President to great and noble disinteres decennial archon when it was open to make himself a him to have carried out thep a rt of Pisistratus. B u t greedy of servitude, aredisgusted at the petitioners, _ d are moved by this noble and such prudery , prudery,oarneg uire that his authority should be as terested man t n time as in amount. We need not doubt unlimited ' Wiwi will be graciously received, that the that the pe affections of fathers and families will be held an fond zeal with which they canvass the de excuse for the President has to which theh tails of a c onstitu ti on . the inviolable seal of his oath, and that in mercy g i v en . . the rising generation he will be persuaded, by th e to prayers he has dictated himself, to suffer th e gentle , violence of converting the ownership of France and Frenchmen from a term of years into a fee-simple. Such is the language held, such are the sentime n t s expressed, in the country of Mirabeau and Lafayette. Happily it is not in the power of the French nation to confer on the existing state o f things the stability which is asked. Were it possiige to mortgage or alienate the rights of we believe that there is servility and baseness enough in the country to assign them over in the most solemn and binding manner. But , happily for the destiny of mankind, theright reverts, the instrument is cancelled, and human tors' into possession of the dignity _ . nature re-en Which it was sought to forestall and destroy ; the a nation ca posse ssor of land may alienate the patrimony of h• but n la heirs , only squander the patrimony of the present. How often those rights have been surrendered and re conquered by France history can tell, and we are much mistak en if the prayer and hope of every honest father of a family is not that his children may escape the snares with which his own path has been strewn, and that, free alike from unbridled license and un bounded despotism, they ma y go forward in the path of moderate progress, not holding their lives, their liberty, and their property as the free gift of an abso lute tyrant, but protected by equal law, and gun.. ranteed by national spirit an d enlightened p u bli c . opinion.

IMPORTANT AD VANTAGES OFFERED JL TO ALL CLASSES.—LIFE ASSURANCE. At the present time, when so many newly-created Insurance Offices are advertising peculiar advantages, the importance of assuring in an office well established must be obvious ; and the Directors of the PROVIDENT CLERKS' ASSOCIATION feel con fidence in calling the attention of the public to their Institution, which was formed in 1840, under the patronage of the Bank of England and the principal merchants and bankers of London and the provinces, and which offers the following peculiar advantages 1. Being enrolled UNDER THE FRIENDLY SOCIETIES' ACTS, the sum assured can be secured to the WIDOW, WIDOWER, Or CHILDREN without payment of PROBATE and LEGACY DUTY, or the risk of ioss by unfortunate circumstances, or the reverses of trade. 2. The mutual principle of assurance and division of profits every five years, assurers of three years participating. 3. An thvested capital and a large annual income, offering a perfect guarante e. 4. Clai ms paid immediately under discount, and all policies indis putable, except in case of absolute fraud. 5. Loans on the security of policies of assurance. 6. Policies can be assigned, and the assignments registered. To Clerks in particular this Assocnttion, from its Benevolent Fund attached, with an invested capital, offers benefits combined with Life Assetrance which no other office in the kingdom can present, as will be seen on reference to the prospectuses, which can be obtained at the office in London, or from the numerous agents in the provinces 3.

Chivalry e: andL The glory of the age cif chivalry con sisted in the: attire of the knight being suitable for his sportyin gor military .avocations; the age of chivalry is therefore restored by h designs costume, introduced and perfected by E . MOSES and e SON. Stylish fit, comfort in wear, novelty in materials, and splen dour in finish are some of the features of E. MOSES and SON' Sporting Dress. As Economists, they have reduced the price to the most reasonable scale, am I as Calculators, have attained the most desirable elevation from which they supply magnificent Dress to Ladies, Gentlemen, or Mechani es. Coats, light and waterproof, gems of modern art, useful but not cumbersome, agreeable wear in shower or sunshine, these Coats are enclosed in a neat case, or may be p ut into the pocket of an ordinary Dress Coat ; these arn introductory to hundreds of new styles to be presented by E. MOSES and SON for Autumn. WHO :MOULD EMIGRATE, AND WHO SHOULD OUTFIT? The ca pi talist, the industrious, the agriculturalist, the mechanic, in fact every man who deserves to participate in wealth and possess property, but labour must proceed enjoyment, the journey must' go before tb a possession, and such articles as are needed for both are called an Outfit. E. MOSES and SON name a few of their qualifi cations, a end let the Emigrant judge "who should Outfit." They have an immense wholesale department, where capitalists may ma] ce the most eligible investments, and where Goods suitable for Australia, or any other country may be procured at such prices as will afford the amplest profit on every purchase. From this de partment, families emigrating will derive the highest advantages. They keep a stock of Hosiery, Boots, and Shoes, &c., for the " Diggings," and Dress of every description expressly prepared with the roost accurate acquaintance with any voyage or climate, on this the Emigrant may implicitly depend. Many yet irs experience in Outfitting on the largest scale has put them in pekesession of an exclusive power in procuring, manufac facturing, and arranging Outfits, to which they appropriate a sepa rate department in their gigantic establishment, where every Emi grant at once sees the purposes they are intending to serve. " Who then can Outfit" like E. MOSES and SON. Fall Lists of Outfits, and all information relative to sailing of vessels and cost of passage may be had on application, or post free to any p: at of the kingdom.

Tho essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists.

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

The Directors state that the profit and loss account will enable them to declare, not only the usual dividend, at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, but an extra dividend, at the rate of 10 per cent. for the half year, to be applied in aid of the extension of the capital.

The coroner's inques f concerning the frightful acci dent on the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire R a ilway, terminated It tt e on Saturday night, at which time the cause of the c. ttamity remained as great a mys tery as at the comment toment of the inquiry. The lead ing facts may be briefly recapitulated. Last Wednesday even ing the Great Nort 1 tern passenger train which leaves Sheffield at 9.10 P.M. re a i off the line, at a place which is three-quarters of a mil a short of Woodhouse junction, and better than four tt tiles from Sheffield. The line carves at that point, an d is upon a steep embankment upwards of thirty feet b igh. When running at about thirty miles an hour the train sudd en ly ran o ff th e ra il s , a nd the engine, rushing across th e d own ra il s , spe d vio lently down the embank anent on the opposite side. The rest of the train (two pat isonger carriages, two goods vans, and a break) fell down the other embankment with a fearful crash. The pas rengers escaped unhurt, but the guard (Charles Tuckwc tod) was killed on the spot, and t h e e ngine driver (Sam :el Wright) di e d on t h e f o l low i ng - day, after suffering the most frightful torture, his legs having been almost ta rasted off by the engine fire, the engine having fallen up on him. The coroner's inques t was opened on Friday, and was of more than ordinary interest, inasmuch as the cause of the accident was alt ,gether unaccounted for. It was reported that the lint was out of guage, but the evi dence given below sets that question at rest. The most important witness was William Leah, the stoker, who said that all went on i ight till he observed some sparks from the hindermost wheel on the right-hand side of the engine. The next moment the train was off the line. The road, he tid, was very bad to travel over between Sheffield and Retford, so bad that it made the engine shake about tel ribly. The other evidence taken on Friday did not bea r upon the cause of the accident. On Saturday the act &lent was resumed. Thomas Spriggs, a an who assisted after the acci dent, proved that the deceased engine driver told him he was quite unable to account for the accident. Alfred Wheeler and Mark Briggs, two miners who live on the margin of ',he line, concurred in stating that the train in question travelled on the night of the acci dent much faster than they had ever seen it. The next point of the inquiry was as to the state of the line and the engine before the accident. Edward Kemp, a Great Northern guard, accustomed to travel on this portion_ of the line, said he did not consider the line between Sheffield and Retford (a por tion of the Manchester, Sheffield,. and Lincolnshire line) in good order : at; all events not so good as the Great Northern line. The trains were accustomed to shake. A few hours befc , re the accident, when accom panying the up-express train, his van shook, and on looking out of the window e saw that the inner reit was crooked. On being (Liked by the doroner why he did not report the circumstance, he said it did not strike him as sufficiently important. Mr. G. Tuckwood, brother of the deceased, repeated the statement which he nude on Friday, to the effect that he had heard Kemp ascribe the accident to the line being out of gauge. Richard Hesketh, an engine -driver, in the employ of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, stated that he drove over the line two hours before the accident, and did not notice anything amiss with the rails or anything else. John Lynn, a plate-layer, said he examined that part of the line in question twice on Wednesday (the day of the accident), as usual, and found it in good running order. Mr. G. Banick, superintendent of the permanent way, saw on Tuekday that at that particular place the line was all right. After the accident he found that eighty yards of the up-rails had been torn up, and thirty yards of the down line. Mr. Richard Peacock, locomotive superintendent on the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, after stating that he made an inspection in order to find out the cause of the accident, said—There is nothing in the evidence I have heard and the examination I have made, to induce me to suppose that the accident was caused by any improper conditi on o f th e li ne . If t h e rails laftd been bent, as stated by Kemp, it would not have caused the engine to run off the line; but I have no reason to suppose that the engine did run off from any defect in the road. From the appearance of the engine wheels, I think the hind pair of wheels got off the line first, but I don't know the cause. I think the axle of the trading-wheels of the engine (the hindermost wheels) was strained slightly, and that that caused the accident. The sparks spoken of by Leah might have been caused by the springing of the frame of the engine in passing round the curve, and thus bringing the wheels in con tact with a bolt head, which he perceived projecting , from the side of the tank of the engine. It is not dan gerous to travel along that curve at thirty or forty miles an hour. Mr. Sturrock, locomotive engineer of the Great Nor thern, said—l cannot satisfy myself as to the cause of the accident; but I very muoh agree with Mr. Peacock, as far as I can form an opinion. After some unimportant evidence, The CORONER summed up, and the jury consulted with closed doors about twenty minutes. The Foreman then delivered the following verdict:— " We are unanimously of opinion that the deceased, Sa muel Wright and Charles Tuckwood, have come by their deaths in consequence of No. 12 Great Northern train, with engine No. 29, running off the rails near Woodhouse Junction, on the night of the Bth inst.; but as to what caused the train to run off the rails no satis factory evidence has been given to the jury." The inquest ended about eight o'clock P.M. TILE NEW CRYSTAL PALACE. . T ., 'ae work of r econs t ruc ti ng th e Gr ea t E x hibiti on etnelie g at Sydenbam is now being pushed forward with great vigour, and that spectacle of well-ap quell. 6ed admi ra ti on plie(l labour which i n H y d e - par k exc it e d suc h un is about to be successfully repe7i 4 .ed. Already the site has been cleared, the fours dations to a great extent prepared, a vast mess of ii taterials collected On the ground, and even the plan of the surrounding gardens and their embl .6 lish . vents roughly struck out. G rea t as was th e •.1 . spef ki with which the old buildin g was reare d , there _ is every reason to believe th a t i n this respect the new. -w ill rival, if i t does not eclip se it. The credit of f ;I:.e nation for punctuality no l onger acts as a sti mulus on the contr.ctors, but th e y w ill, no doubt, stew themselves men their word, and they have ant •only the experience of the previous undertaking to :aid them, but they work to a great extent wi'al the same hands, the same materials, and ta e sae ne proportions. The very bell that summoned th a labourers to their work—the crane that lif tad tae heavier castings, and the hydraulic press that tested the girders in Hyde-park, are again at noir former uses. Huge piles of materials, arranged so as to be most available, are stacked in order alon g the ground Th ere are l ong rows of *strat sotumns, reviving, by the paint upon them, recollee , ;ions of Owen Jones's colouring. The doors through aevrheidchepossoitveadstio a heap a tide of onehu manity . swept last summer e the other, ready for fresh service. One sees mountain s of sasbbars, bracinga, girders window-frames, panelling, Paxton gutters, ra ilin gs, about them the traces of little deteriorated an d other materials, all bearing _n condition life use, and apparently ondition thereby. There is also an immense l a ccumulation forth of glass, stowed e away in a shed erected percentage of that brittle is purpose, and the materialsaid to destroyed in the transfer from Hyde- park ns the permanent to be rem ar k a bl y small. In layin g th e f oundatio character of the new structure is s h own b y the _ increased size of th em , but the old proportions Whimultiplech the details of constr uc ti on i n such undertakrienders simple and economical, a n d w hi c h now, fully ;l o g sso cog nized as it is, promises to yield th e grandest results to the science of architecture. While the actual site of the palace has thus been cleared and prepared for the superstructure, and while vast accumulations of materials have been made, the working drawings have also been completed, or nearly so, and a few days more will show the whole design growing to reality, with a speed and certainty which the mechanical re sources of this country alone render practicable. It is a gratifying feature of the new undertaking that the more immediate direction of the work is confided to Mr. Henderson, whose ill health was so severely felt by the firm of which he is a member during the struggle to be ready for the opening of the Exhibi tion. Mr. Henderson's great energy and practical skill admirably qualify him for the task on which he has entered, and he has in Mr. Cochrane, who occupied the same position in Hyde-park, a most effective foreman. Of the building which they are about to raise, the main features are sufficiently well known to justify a natural anxiety in the public mind for its successful completion. There cannot be a doubt that the new Crystal Palace will be a far more splendid edifice than the old, though the wonder which the novelty of the latter inspired may somewhat blunt our appreciation. The site is magnificent, and commands a glorious pro spect, in which London, with her far extending suburbs and her population of 2,000,000, forms but a section of the view. Looking south-east even now, the eye is carried over a smiling and variegated land scape without obstruction, as tar as its powers can reach ; but no conception can at present be formed of the circuit visible from an additional elevation of 200 feet, and embracing within its ample verge, not only the panorama of the metropolis, and the course of our greatest river to the sea, but the Surrey hills,_abound ing in natural beauty, an d th e rich lands of Kent, the garden of England. Then it must be remembered that the Palace itself will be not the least remark able feature of the scene, shining on its elevated site, and made resplendent by having the sky as its background. Crowning the ridge, it will be conspicuous for many a mile, its towers, arched transepts, and nave, finely breaking up and diver sifying its enormous dimensions. The monotonous effect of the old building will be completely re moved, and it will rise into the air a noble temple, dedicated to the innocent recreation of the people. The grounds of Penge-park, which it immediately overlooks, are nicely undulated, and the frontage, which has a south-eastern exposure from the way in which the land drops, will be elevated and command ing. An open colonnade on this side will run along the whole length of the structure, and the arches of the three transepts, recessed to a depth of 24 feet, will, from their great height and the effect of shadow, be singularly imposing. That in the centre will be 200 feet high, and it has just been proposed by Mr. Barry to surmount the whole with three vast domes, the loftiest rising 400 feet from the base.. The work of decoration has been commenced externally, the main avenue, the spaces for some of the fountains , and t he line of terr aces b e ing ro ughly indicated. The , genius of P ax t on w ill so on bring this part of the undertaking into shape and consistency. Penge. park is remarkably well adapted for the operations contemplated, and there are some fine specimens of timber a l rea dy o n the ground, which will no doubt be turned to good and telling account. Among the more striking features of this portion of the works is a lofty tower with a tank at the top 50 feet square , which it is proposed to construc t f or the supply of the fountains, and which is to be so ar ranged that it can itsel f converted into an immense cascade. Of the internal decorations and other points comprised in the company's scheme it would be pre mature yet to say much, for, though the plans con nected with them have been so far matured, they will probably undergo extensive modifications, as circum stances may dictate. Each department has been en trusted to the ablest men that could be found to take charge of it, and they are all now busily engaged in forming their several collections. Owen Jones and Digby Wyatt are scouring the continent for the materials of artistic embellishment and decoration ; Professor Ansted is getting together a great series of geological ill us trations ; the section of natural history is intrusted to the joint care of Professor Edward Forbes, Mr. Waterhouse, and Mr. Gould, assisted by Mr. Th om pson, of King's College. D r. Latham has undertaken the ethnological department, and the winter garden is, of course, the sp ec i al object of Sir Joseph Paxton's solicitude, who will , no last doubt, do everything that a knight can to bring down into the 19th century, and within accession li few minutes drive of London, the fabled gardens w of the Hesperides, without the dragon.

To have that patronage the charge for admission must be easily within the means of those classes. Now, if the preliminary outlay is not very carefully g, uarded this will be impossible. The hum bl e r class es paid their shillings to see the Ex hibition, but that was once in a way, and because the glories of the spectacle were fleeting. The bare knowledge that a sight can be seen at any time tends greatly to disarm curiosity ; and the strict commercial character of the new undertaking dissolves a considerable amount of that popular gym, pathy which was felt for a common effort, in which all made sacrifices to do homage to the dignity of labour. The Great Exhibition was self-supporting, but it was also, while it lasted, a great freewill offer ing. Some were paid, and rightly so, for what they did ; but the majority contributed their time, their skill, and their property gratuitously. Had it taken place under the Mundy contract one may fairly question whether the success achieved would have been nearly so brilliant, and, even as matters stand, with the great body of the work done by volun t&ry effort, and the whole world agog about the splen dour of the spectacle, the surplus is only 150,000/. English companies engaged in new undertakings T.HE IRON TRADE. On Wednesday last, at Wolverhampton, a partial meeting of the trade took place, consisting of those gen tlemen who were interested in the dispute between the refractory portion of puddlers and their employers, and such others who wore accidentally present at the time. It appears that a willingness had been expressed by the puddlers to return to their work, if themasters would fix upon any limited period at which they would promise to advance the wages; while, on the other hand, the sup plying of those works with puddle-bars where the men were standing, from others where they continued to work, was found excessively inconvenient to both. A resolution was, therefore, passed, declaring a general advance of 20s. per ton on all finished iron, with a pro portionable per-tentage upon the wages of the workmen engaged in its manufacture, to take place from the Ist of October next; and it is hoped that these misguided men will now return quietly to their work. Their con duct has been highly censurable, not only as having in , flitted wanton injury upon their respective employers, but seriously affecting the general int erests of the trad e by diverting orders to other districts. This resolution will, doubtless, be confirmed at the general meeting of the trade to be held on the 30th instant, although we are well aware that great anxiety is felt by some, whose opinions are worthy of much consideration, as to the effect that may result. There are, however, others suf ficiently sanguine to look forward to such a revival as will call for still further advances, and certainly a very considerable speculative demand seems to be already opening up, and business has been freely transacted at the advanced rates.—Binninghans Gazette. TUE LAS I •ING r T TlE.—Dean Storr, when residing on a living in the country, had occasion one day to unite a rustic couple in the bands of matrimony. The ceremony being over, the husband began to " sink in resolution," and falling (as some husb an d s might do), into a fit of repentance, he said, " Your reverence has tied the knot tightly, 1 fancy, but, under favour, may I ask your reverence if :to be you could untie it ag a i n ?" " Why, no," replied t he Dean, "we never do that on this part of the consecrated ground." " Where then?" cried the man, eagerly. "On that'." point ing to the burying ground. A wild girl, says the Cincinnati Commercial, wa s captured last week in the woods back of Columbia. She was first observed climbing trees with a rapidity only equalled by a monkey. Captain M'Cullough, with a llrge party, went out to capture this singular being, and atter great trouble succeeded in doing so, when they learned from her incoherent expressions that she had been a lunatic in the asylum at Columbus, whence she escaped some months since, and had lived in the woods, subsisting upon nuts and roots, JON LIEBIG ON - PALE ALES. ark 3 0 " ,ar I wished to associate with any individual brewery my re tbNct t he alleged adulteration of bitter beer with strychnine, it ave b the 'Qh a i Gen. only natural to have mentioned another brewery, in "e, and not in Mr. Allsopp's, I was engaged in investigating Zoi ,boa l l4 l_ l 4 A t : ‘ 4o de of brewing : and it was also in that brewery, and macti,,,`• llsopp's, that the Bavarian brewers acquired all the thi s hn s"s they obtained ar,Burton.
