In the course of half an hour the Pre sident resumed his seat, and, after the reading and adoption of the proces-verbal, he declared the session closed, and the members separated, crying " Vive le President !" " Vive Louis Napoleon!" The Journal des Debats mentions, on the authority of letters from London, that the English Govern ment has received the news of the settlement of the MATHER affair on the last conditions proposed by Lord MALMESBURY, and that this favourable result was due to the efforts of Sir HENRY BULWER. _ __ ----- The Legislative Body, in its sitting of Sunday, got through thej business of the Railway Bills according to expectation. The last official reception at the Elysee for the present season took place on Saturday evening; nearly the whole of the Members of the Senate, Legislative Body, and Council of State, were present. The Bul letin de Paris, in noticing this soiree, says : " It was not less brilliant nor less animated, but more cordial than usual. The 'tact with which the Prince organises these soiries, and the grace and affability which be displays towards all his guests, are . well known. Our representatives will return to their constituents un der this impression. We can assert, without fear of con tradic:ion, that not the slightest coldness subsists be tween the members of the different powers, and the next session can open under the auspices of the most perfect union." The Impartial of Nancy states that strict orders have been given that all works executed for the Go vernment shall be suspended on the Sunday. Thereport presented by M.

LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNE 29, 1852. Addresses are beginning to pour in upon the I electors throughout the United Kingdom. Old can didates are reminding their constituencies of their past services, and are either maintaining their title to consistency or explaining their adoption of some novel principle. New candidates, on the, contrary, are bidding for the favour of the possessors of the franchise by enumerating the advantages cer tain to accrue from their selection as representa ; fives. It is :wonderful to observe the develop ment of the weakness of human nature in the course of proceedings thus calculated, like wine, to produce a mental excitation sufficient to dis close the real workings of character and the innate force of each political adventurer's idiosyncracy. Unhappily, we have, in numerous directions, the pros pect of witnessing the disappointment of the hopes of the electors by the eagerness of the rival aspirants to their approbation Upon this we commented yester day—alluding to a variety of instances in which the energies of different parties are being frittered away by a most injudicious emulation. Half a dozen op posing Liberals in the same borough, as in other cases half a dozen contending Derbyites, afford by their mistaken and inopportune contention the golden chance which might not otherwise have existed for their real antagonists. In this manner a constituency containing a large majority of free-trade voters may be delivered over to a Protectionist representative ; or vice versa, a constituency containing a considerable majority of electors advocating the re-imposition of a duty on foreign corn, may be compelled in the end to behold the triumph of some champion eof unrestricted commerce. Ridiculous though these shiftings and changings may appear, they have actually occurred before now, and unless the possessors of the franchise hold themselves forewarned, are at this crisis very liable to a recurrence. Against such casualties, therefore, we would seriously caution all parties alike—as against a situation detrimental to the interests and derogatory to the influence of po pular representation. Before the elections commence, it were well for the voters in such localities as Stafford and Leicester to make a preliMinary selection, in the latter instance from the four, and in the former instance from the six; Liberal candidates who have already made their appearance. Otherwise the result of the numbers polled may, in different quarters, where least expected, prove disastrous. Another subject requiring extreme caution on the part of all individuals concerned—whether electors or candidates—is the subject of bribery, extending even to matters of the most innocent description, but which might by possibility be construed into evidences of corruption. If we remember rightly, it was shortly after the last general election—the general election of 1847—that a striking illustration of the care which ought to be shown upon these very delicate occasions was afforded by the contest at Cheltenham, where, for some trivial " treatiogs" (such as it Were absolutely absurd to designate bribery or corruption), the return of the Hon. CRAVEN PITZHARDINGE BERKELEY was declared to be null and void, the borough being consequently deprived since then of the services of a member who had sat for Cheltenham during four successive Par liaments. Returned by continually increasing ma jorities—in 1832 without opposition, in 1835 by 411, in 1837 by 632, in 1841 by 764, and in 1848 by 1,024, the Hon. CRAVEN BERKELEY was thus, by a lack of caution among his conspicuous supporters compelled to secede from the field, yielding the bo rough up for a while to his cousin, the Hon. GREN • VILLE BERKELEY. His triumph over this misfor tune we regard, at any rate, es, at this moment, assured. The electors cannot so speedily have for gotten the warning of two successive elections de clared to have been null and void, on petition, that in 1847 of Sir WILLOUGHBY JONES, and that in 1848 of the Honourable CRAVEN BERKELEY. All constitu encies, however, are not, of course, so thoroughly alive at the present juncture to the necessity of avoiding the moat shadowy appearances of corruption. It is fortunate, therefore, that we are enabled now, betimes, to warn the possessors of the - franchise, and candidates generally of this absolutely requisite circumspection. l Upon this subject a high authority has recently (we might say within the last few hours) pronounced.l In the course of his very happily timed, and there fore doubly welcome ,and doubly valuable "Manual of the Parliamentary Election Law of the United Kingdom," it is remarked by Mr. WARREN, the emi nent QUEEN'S Counsel, as follows : - " Tho position of all parties, and all places, entrusted with the electoral franchise, has become exceedingly critical, in consequence of the greatly augmented facili ties which now exist for detecting bribery in even its i subtlest and most varies forms. Devices hitherto sue-1 cessful in the hands of those characterized by a corrupt, but consummate astuteness, will be henceforth found shorn of almost all their efficacy; for impunity is compa ratively annihilated. The universal spirit of indignation against bribery, to which impressive utterance has been . recently given by the most eminent statesmen belonging to all parties, and also, with a marvellous concurrence, by all the leading organs of public opinion, will not suffer itself to be baffled daring the inquiry to which the ensuing general election is likely to give rise. Candi dates can now be compelled to come before Committees , or into a court of law , and be e x p ose d to t h e mos t acute and merciless examination, from which they cannot shelter themselves, except under the pernicious, perilous, and. even fatal plea, that they decline to answer, on the ground that their answers may tend to criminate themselves. All their agents, friends, and acquaintances, especially those most intimate, and in any way taking part in the election, will be subjected to similar scrutiny; as will be also every elector whom vigilant and unsuspected observation may detect in a suspicious or equivocal position. While candidates, voters, and those who communicate with them are thus im perilled, it must be borne in mind that the scenes themselves of bribery . and corruption will henceforth be subjected to the unsparing and rigorous scrutiny of Parliament, with the great additional powers conferred by the Act of tip present session.. It is pos sible that more than one borough may ere long find itself in the melancholy position of Sudbury and St. Albans ; or their freemen follow the fate of many of their brethren disfranchised daring the last few years for systematic corruption, and whose doings have too often brought opprobrium upon their order." Fain would we believe that this solemn warning— coming as it does from an authority like WARREN'S Law of Elections—may prove effectual in clearing the moral atmosphere of the constituencies and in imparting to the successful candidates the dignity of an honestly chosen and consequently genuine representative. The country requires it ; the House of Commons requires it : it is an improvement demanded as much for the elevation of the repute of the electors as for the vindication of the aYst2ra of representative government. Let the w arning be accepted in " good part," and th e na ti on parliarnen t will then l oo k w i th larger confidence upon that new which is to be assembled in the course of the en B • Lung October, in the legislative palace at EY eLtalin d t er.

We may now, then, congratulate the country on the fact that the session now ra pidly approaching to its termination, although handsome of comparatively barren in all other parti cu l ars , h as yet been more than o rdinaril y productive in mea sures t s h il e re a s dmn ofirisatlraptriaocntiocfalthue6 law.ty for A improvement theand instal ment has been granted to legal reformers, w h o have indeed ample Clause for self-gratulation at the results of a year during which, to use the words of p er h aps the highest living authority on Rich subjects, " mor© _ considerable progress has been made in the amend ment of the law than in any twelve times *twelve months in his recollection." They should not, how ever, on this account relax their exertions, but, on the contrary, should proceed more vigorously and energetically in their useful labours from the encouragement thus afforded. If much has been achieved, much still remains to be accomplished before the abuses which sprung up during successive centuries, and which flourished in rank luxuriance until they excited the unanimous condemnation of men of all classes in society, will be thoroughly and completely abolished, and the humblest suitor can safely depend upon cheap and expeditious justice. The Society for Promoting the Amendment of the Law, to whose unremitting efforts and jadicious sug gestions much of these felicitous results may fairly be attributed, held its annual dinner at the Crown and Sceptre Tavern, Greenwich, on Saturday. It may easily be supposed that the members of this patriotic association, who have eminently entitled themselves to the thanks and gratitude of the com munity, warmly congratulated each other on the present aspect of affairs, so different from that ap pearing before the formation of the society. The veteran legal reformer, Lord BROUGHAM, presided over his learned collaborateurs, and ably and elo quently encouraged his associates to continue their labours., Not a toast was pkoposed in which some much required alteration in the law was not sug gested. The Chairman alluded to digests of the Criminal Law and of Common Law Procedure, which have already been prepared in accordance with the recommendations of a Commission given no less than twenty years ago. His Lordship, also, while speak ing of the contemplated improvements in the superior courts, declared " that whatever might be effected in this way, he held it to be impossible to dispense with the local courts." This is a feeling that has spread throughout the country. Those who have " had justice brought home to their very doors" will never consent to its removal. It is true that there have been many deficiencies in the county court system, but these chiefly arose from the want of a regular attendance of barristers. This palpable defect will, we trust, be speedily remedied, and we have no doubt that matters will thenceforth be placed on a more satisfactory footing, so that every well-founded complaint may be removed. " The fusion of law and equity" was responded to by Mr. Commissioner FAKE, who has given much consideration to the subject. The great experiment which has already been tried with such satisfactory results by our Transatlantic brethren has removed the doubts previously existing as to the possibility of effecting this great desideratum. The law can never be cheaply administered while there are so many different tribunals through which a suitor may be bandied, at a vast expenditure of time ' and money. The more extensive the jurisdiction, the more full and complete the remedy that can be afforded, the better for all classes of litigants, for de fendants as well as plaintiffs. The bankruptcy courts and the county courts have now both legal , and equitable jurisdiction, and the great advantages thereof must be familiar to every practitioner before these tribunals. Indeed, we are convinced that the community will never be satisfied until the amalgamation be fully carried out, and the eccle siastical jurisdiction be also conferred upon the new tribunal. One of the chief and most interesting points, how ever, referred to during the evening, was " the free transfer of land," with which the name of Mr. JAMES STEWART was most de servedly associated. That learned gentleman has devoted himself to the simplification of G6titles," to the removal of the difficulties and obstructions th at impede the transfers of real estates, and occasion' such delays, expense, and inconvenience to ,both vendors, and purchasers. As " free trade'' has been accomplished in the produce of land there can be no adequate reason why it should not be extended to the land itself. Mr. STEWART has pointed out how this may be accomplished, and no greater boon could be conferred on the agricultural interest than bringing into full operation his valuable suggestions. It would create a demand • for land • that would speedily raise its value in the market. It would give a stimulus to the improvements, causing the soil to be brought into the highest state of cultivation, and thus providing em ployment for the labouring population, so that all parties, landlord, tenant, and even farm-labourer, would be materially benefited by the change. Nothing but our own artificial regulations have occasioned the enormous evils. It will require some degree of nerve and resolution to break through the trammels that custom has forged around us. But it may be done, and we hope to see the time when estates may be transferred with as much simplicity as money in the funds, or shares in public companies. We cannot close our notice without some allusions to the admirable observations of Mr. R. Low, on " the Codification of the Law," a matter of vast importance, but which only requires the public atten tion to be steadily directed to the advantages that would follow from its adoption to ensure its ultimate success. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The session of the Corps Legislatif was closed yes terday. The PRINCE PRESIDENT addressed a message to it, couched in the most conciliating terms; thanking it for its loyal co-operation, and promising to lay before it, on its re-opening, some projects tending to dimi nish the country's expenses, without injuring "les services pz‘blics:, The following is the text of the message : " ELYSEE NATIONAL, JUNE 28, 18 52. " Gentlemen,—At the moment of the close of the session of 1852, I have to return you my thanks for the loyal co-operation and support you have given to our new institutions. You have known how to resist what is the most dangerous amongst assembled men the being carried away by esprit de corps—and, all suscepti bility laid aside, you have occupied yourselves with the great interests of the country, feeling that the epoch of impassioned and sterile discourses had passed away, and that of business had arri►ed. "The application of a new system always en counters difficulties ; you have had your share of them. It occupation has seemed to be wanting at your earlier meetings, you have understood that the desire of abridging the term of my dictatorship and my enxiety to call you around me had been the cause of it in depriving my Government of the time necessary for the preparation of the laws which were to be submitted to you. The natural consequence of that exceptional state of things was the accumulation of business at the close of the session. Nevertheles3, the first trial of the Constitution, completely of French origin, must have convinced you that we possessed the conditions of a strong and free Government. The Government is no longer that passive butt against which the various Op positions directed with impunity their shafts. It can resist their attacks, and henceforth follow a system with out having recourse either to arbitrary rule or to du plicity. On the other hand, the control of the Assembly is serious, for discussion is free, and the voting of the taxes decisive. " As to the imperfections which experience has shown us, our common love for the public good will tend inces santly to diminish their inconvenience until the Senate shall have pronounced its opinion. "Daring the interval of the recess I shall direct all my efforts to find out what are the wants of the country and to prepare the projects which may permit me to di minish the burdens of the State without detriment to the public service. " On your return to your duties I will lay before you the result of our labours, and the general state of affairs in the message that the Constitution obliges mo to ad dress to you every year. X," On returning to your departments, be the faithful echoes of the sentiment that predominates here; confi dence in reconciliation and peace. Tell your constitu ents that in Paris, the heart of France, that revolution ary centre which scatters over the world alternate light or conflagration, you have seen an immense population labouring to efface the traces of revolutions, and joy ously applying themselves to industry with confidence in the future. Those who so recently, in their madness, were impatient of all restraint, you have heard saluting wila acclamation the restoration of our eagles, the sym bols of authority and of glory. " At that imposing spectacle, where religion conse crated aith her benediction a great national festivity, you have remerked their rupee:till attitude. You have seen that army so proud, that has saved its country, rise ctill higher in the esteem of mon; and kneeling in devo tion before the image of God, presented from the summit His altar. " The meaning of this is, that there exists in France a Government animated with the faith and the love of good, which reposes on the people, the source of all power; on the army, the source of all force; and on reli gion, tho source of all justice. " Receive the assurance of my sentiments, " LOUIS NAPOLEON: The reading of this message was repeatedly inter rupted by marks of approbation, and its conclusion elicited loud cries of " Vive le President !" The sitting WAa afterwgrds attspenclo to enable the GERMANY. The Emperor of AUSTRIA arrived at Pesth on the 23d. There was a rumour that an attempt had been made upon his life at Grosswardein. According to this report an individual in the garb of a priest aimed a pistol at his MAJESTY, and, missing his aim, blew his own brains out instead. The occurrence took place exactly on the spot where the Russians made over to the Austrians the army of GORGEY. The King of PRUSSIA arrived at Deutz on Thurs day evening.

Th e news received from London and Paris, of the favourable reception of the Austrian loan, had caused the funds to attain a higher point than they have reached since the year 1848. BELGIUM.

VAN DE' WEYER, the Belgian Ambassador at the Court of London, who arrived a few days ago at Brussels, have left the latter city for Wi es baden to join the KING. A ru mour was current on Saturday, in the political circles at Brussels , that these gentlemen had been summoned by the KING to a conference with a view to modifications in the Belgian Cabinet. The Emancipation of Brussels says —" An extra ordinary session of the Chambers will take plac e between the 15th an d 20t h J u l y.

RE-UNION DEs ARTS.—This excellent society gave, last night, at Queen Ann-street, its eighth concert, to a very select and elegant company. Beethoven's trio was exquisitely performed by Messrs. Kiallmark, Goffrie, and Hausmann. Miss Mayner and Miss lowland were much applauded, and Miss Mary Rose sang very sweetly, and with great spirit, Donizetti's "In questo simplice.

By an Act passed in the Legislative Council of Hong- Kong, on the 13th of January, 1852, consular officers within their respective jurisdictions, are empowered to carry out such provisions of the Merchant Seamena' Act and Mercantile Marine Act, 1850, as ate by the said Acts entrusted to colonial justices. It declares that in any case where two or more such justices are required to act jointly,.one of them is authorised to act alone. They are to be subject to no suit or proceeding for any act done in their official capacity with the intention of carrying out the Acts or any part of them. The last Jamaica advices enter into a subject of great importance, viz., tho extraordinary improvement in the manufacture of sugar at Montpelier estate, belonging to Lord Howard do Walden. Mr. Hoffman, a German gentleman, and Mr. de Ville, a scientific Frenchman, were devoting great attention to the subject. The fol lowing are the explanations given:— By the process of the centrifugal machine, how ever, such great alterations and improvements are effected, in less than ten minutes, in a given quantity of granulated sugar saturated with molasses as would astonish men of intelligence of the longest experience in the manufacture of sugars. The cane juice from the mill is conveyed in the usual way to cyphon, or clarifier, and there it under goes an alteration in its properties by means of streams of carbonic acid gas, generated from the combustion of wood in a furnace, constructed for the purpose, with the necessary pipes and pump for conveying the gas to the clarifier, in which it acts upon the feculent:lies in the liquor. This is a new method, possessing extraordinary power of causing defecation of those deteriorating elements in the oane juice which materially supervene in the progress of evaporation and granulation. The re sult of this chemical combination is, that the appearance of the juice is altogether altered, and, instead of the dull grey, olive, or olive green colour, a pure, limpid liquor is seen, very similar to light-coloured brandy, or toast-water. In this state, passing through filtering bags, it is poured into the first evaporating copper, and so on transferred from ono degree of temperature to another, until the mass acquires tho consistence neces sary to its being skipped from the tache to the coolers. Great care is nuw observed in the manner of transmis sion, the, , process of granulation, in some measure, de pending upon it. At this stage of the manufacture a very important and fortunate discovery has been made, owing entirely to an unfortunate accident. The history is simply this:—One of the drums of the centrifugal machine had been smashed to pieces in the operation. There was then a suspension of the purifying process for three or four days, the time occupied in repairing the accident. In the meantime the sugar skipped to the coolers, remained in a quiescent state, and became as cool as the surrounding atmosphere. The common plan is' to pot hot,' or, in other words than planting technicality, to take the sugar from the cooler to the hogshead in the curing house as soon as possible. This practice was observed in passing the saturated sugar through the centrifugal machine, before the accident happened, so that the ma terial was at a high temperature when the centrifugal operation was performed. It was discovered, however, that the time which the mixed mass of molasses and granulated sugar, ex necessitate rei, remained together in the cooler, in a state of quiescence, had produced a vast amount of benefit in the size of the grain, and in the quantity of granulated material. This discovery led to another improvement in the promotion of the same object. Having ascertained from this experience that slow action in cooling, actual coolness and quiescence were 'essential to size of grain and quantity of dry sugar to be obtained from the new method of purifying, coolers of five or six feet long, by three or four feet wide, have been substituted for those of nine to twelve feet long, by five to six feet wide. The consequence has been that, after remaining undisturbed in these circum scribed troughs for three or four days, a large strong grained sugar has, invariably, been the product. At the expiration of this time the molasses which floats on the top, and which is usually mingled with the entire mass and potted in the curing -house, is carefully removed to a steam tache, erected for the special purpose, in which the syrup undergoes another action of evaporation, and an additional amount of granulated sugar is produced. The last stage of these scientific operations is then com pleted in the centrifrugal machine, and most wonderful are the effects." There are advices of March 23 from Melbourne.

Last night Mr. Farren re-opened the Olympics Theatre "for the summer season;" and the start was Se' complished, auspiciously, with a bill of four pieces, two , of which came under the attracting head of " first time. An "entirely new and original drama," entitled The Bag of Gold, led the way. The materials of its compo stition are slight. The well-worn idea of a respectable hero finding a treasure, and, when he makes use of it, being suspected of having stolen it, constituting the whole plot. The principal character, Mortimer, is played by Mr. W. Farren, and there are some pretty domestic scenes between him and his wife (Mrs. Walter, Lacy). There is also a by-plot of a hen-pecked innkeeper, cleverly represented by Mr. G. Cooke, and a love-sick ostler, whose very low comedy fared pleasantly in the heeds of Mr. Shalders. A. new farce was the second novelty, and was not less applauded. The plot is of course impossible, and the characters are of course in credible; but these trifling defects do not interfere with the successes of the class of pieces current for the gra tification of enlightened half-price audiences. The daughter of a retired stockbroker in the vicinity of Cam berwell is afflicted with the competitive love of a butcher's assistant and a baker's porter. To get rid of them she enters into a plot, through the agency of the ordinary farce-maid, to punish them. A rendezvous in her father's garden is made with both for the seine tinic- They both appear punctually, hit against one another in the dark, in the recognised way; and as the father awakes and hurries out to assault the supposed house breakers one lover falls into a cucumber frame and the other down a well:—the tableau being intensified by the combative father being caught in a man-trap cunningly prepared by himselt. At the proper moment the daughter and maid rise to explain; and one of the swains transfers his affections on the spot from the mis tress to tho confidante. The curtain falls amid roars of a laughter. The acting of Compton, Shalders, and G. Cooke did even justice to the farce. Mrs. Alfred Phil lips's comedietta, entitled The Bachelor's Vow, and the farce of Friend Waggles, were also performed, and a uni versal feeling of satistwtion seemed to result from the entertainments. • • • MARYLEBONE THEATRE. Last evening was produced, for the first time at the above theatre, the popular romantic spectacle of Peter Wilkins; or, The Flying Indians—in which Signor Mar tini, the celebrated man monkey, made his first appear ance. Peter Wilkins, the hero, was personated by Mrs. Cowie, in a very artistic manner, as was also the Non descript by Signor Martini. Some of the feats he per formed were of a very astonishing nature. The mecha nical and scenic effects were most effective, and reflect very great credit upon all concerned in the manage ment, more especially Mr. E. Laws, the stage Manager, under whose direction it has been produced. A grand ballet fo:lowed, arranged by Mr. Cormack with his usual ability and taste; and the entertainments con cluded with a romantic drama, entitled The Robber of the Alps, in which Mr. Henry Fraser appeared as the hero. The house was well attended, and the frequenrepplause testified the approbation of the audience. SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS The first appearance of M.
