The tragedy is in fi ve ae h , last being denominated, forintelligi ble not very reason, the prologue and epilogue, on the rising of the curtain we find ourselves in the 13th book of the Odyssey; Ulysses, after his lon g y ears of pil grimage, has at length reached the coasts Ithaca, and is discovered onshore, where the A more Homeric. to lament the p erfidy the Phmcians have disembarked him se with all his the first and treasures while asleep.

The goddes s an d the "hero son of Lae rtes," then separate, and h e proceeds to the dwelling of the trusty EUMOUS, who r ece i ves h i m w i t h genuine Gre cian hospitality. M. Ponsard, however, does n o t g ive displays in H omer. In the libations the worthy swi ne h er d credit for all the generosity he w hich follow the repast an i nvocat i on to Jupiter, i m ploring him to grant the sp ee d y return of Ul ysse s to his country, and a grac e f u l paraphrase of one of the odes of Ho . race, describi ng t h e disastrous consequences o f th e rape of Hele n , produced a marked i m pression. Tele machus now ap pears and by com mand of Minerva Ulysses discover s hi mself to him alone, and the y together conc er t the plan for destroy i ng t h e su it ors of Penelope. Th e next act introduces us to the in terior of the pal ace, to the chaste and pru d en t Pene lope, " like unt o A rtemis and the gol d en A p h ro dit e ," to the nurse E uryclea, to the suitors, and to t h e hand maids of th e Q ueen. Ulysses, presented b y Tele machus as a f r i end of h i s father's, is received with every demonstrati on o f regard, an d Euraclea is ordered to w as h the stranger ' s feet, which she pro ceeds to do, coram pu b lic°, an oper ation which excited consid era b le merr i ment on the part of the public. The nurse recogn i zes her master b y means of the scar on hi s foot, an d i t i s with difficulty he induces her to r e p ress h er j o y, an d thus d i scover hi m to his enemies. The candidates for the hand of the long-widowed Penelope, now peremptorily insist on her choosing a husband from among them, and every expedient for delay being exhausted, she at last pro- poses the test of the bow, and promises that the suitor who shall be strong enough to bead the famous wea pon of Ulysses, and with sufficient skill to send an arrow from it through twelve rings, shall obtain her hand. All this, and the scene of the banquet which follows, is translated with graceful elegance. After the feast is over, Penelope appears with th e t err ibl e b ow ; the suitors all vainly attempting to bend it; when Ulysses requests leave to examine the well-known arm, and lo !in his hands it becomes as flexible as a reed. His unerring arrow flies from the bow, passing through every ring without grazing their circlets ; he then turns to the dismayed and astonished suitors, and ac quaits them that he is the returned monarch. After reproaching them for their pillage and outrages on his household, he raises the fatal bow, and the hour of vengeance commences. The fifth act, or epilogue, finds Ulysses seated on his throne, and the first act is to punish the hand-maids of the Queen for sharing in the disorders and libertinism o f t h e f a ll en suitors. The cautious Penelope, however, refuses to recognise her husband, until he gi ves a description of the thalamus, the naivete of which frequ en tl y exc i ted the hilarity of the public ; she is, however, at length convinced ; Minerva makes her appearance in a cloud, and, after congratulating her favourite on the successful termination of his labours, ascends to - Olyinpus, and the piece concludes. We should perhaps before have mentioned that the tragedy is interspersed with chorusses and incidental music composed by M. Gounod ; an innovation which led us at first to imagine that M. Ponsard contemplated a revival of the old Greek tragedy, in which the chorus played so important a part. This is not however, the case, as the tragedy would be equally intelligible without them, though M. Gounod has performed his task with a taste and classic feeling which place his contribution to the work among the most admired parts of the performance. The instil mentation, designedly unobtrusive, breathes a spirit of poetry and freshness, conjoined with an antique simplicity, admirably characteristic. It was in variably rewarded by the audience with applause, save in the instance of a solo hymn by the bard Phemius. A martial chorus of swineherds, how ever, of a very different facture, deservedly ob tained the honours of the bis. On the whole Ulysse will not add anything to the reputation of M. Pon sard ; it has, indeed, rather the air of a co ll ege prize-poem than a drama for the modern stage. It was fairly but not remarkably acted ; Geffroy was the Ulysses, which he performed with his usual judi cious care ; Delaunay looked Telemachus admirably, and probably performed it as well as the part ad , mitted.

The truth is, and that truth can't be too generally known, for the very contrary is universally believed, that the Lords are t en ti mes b etter men of business than the Commons. This has particularly struck every one who has had o ccas i on to attend committees during the present session. Go into a railway or dock committee in the H ouse o f C ommons, and you'll find a witness discoursi ng on astronomy, navigation, mesmerism, chemistry, geology, or things in gene ral, as the case may be interspersed with copious bio graphical details of hi mse lf an d hi s respected acquain tances, from infancy upwards. It is perfectly imma terial what all this has to do with the ostensible subject matter of the inquiry: —the Committee conceive that, as they aro there to listen, and witnesses' counsel to talk, it doesn't much matter (which it certainly very often does not) what he talks about, and the more miscellaneous and diversified the greater the chance of being entertaining, and the greater the cer t a i nty of ac complishing the grand object of the professional indi viduals on either side—killing time and keeping costs alive. Very different, however, is the case with the Lords. They confine all parties to the point, and bring them to a full stop at th e p roper per i od, despite their in terjections and excl ama t ions and notes of interrogation interminable. In a wat er C omm i ttee, the other day, for instance, the Noble Ch a i rman coolly told the counsel to cut down their brief s one -h a lf i f they hoped to get through the business of th e ot h er half; and on a sur geon being produced as a witness, Earl Morley cau terized the son of Gale n by ordering him to amputate his loquacity instanter and be off with himself, unless he could show that the hydraulic works in question were to be conducted on the hydropathic principl e, and re quired medical depositions to that effect. Numberless examples of the same sort will occu r t o every one in the habit of attending Committees; and if the Commons don't mean to mend their ways next Parliament, " thank God, we've a House of Lords," will be a general le hib bol verpoo eth in the mouths of univ ersa l suffering suffragists.— Liverpool . e T/i ,s E st ß ea o m Y y il a L cht A s v c ie ll tor T i S a . an and the , Her Majsty Captain Lord Adolphus Fitzel arence, Albert, Fairy tender, have under gone a thorough refit and re- embellishment slow and aloft. The contractors for their internal fittings having completed their department last week, on Monday last they were given up to her Majesty's naval servants complete i n every essential for making a voyage comfortable and even luxurious at sea. To attempt a description of the various elegances and con voniences which everywhere pervade the royal yachts, would occupy far more space than any newspaper could devote to such a task, however agreeable it might be. The vessels internally and externally have had an en tirely new equipment, and their fitments display a refine ment of taste the visitor would look for in vain on board anything else afloat. The comfort of the Queen and Royal Family, and the optical effect has been evi dently a subject of profound study in every matter apper taining to decoration on board the Queen's yachts. The presence of a master hand in design, and the most delicate skill in execution, ever and anon strike th© spectator as he is conducted through the royal and generalapartments of the steamers, and it is but just the praise should be as arded commensurate with the labour performed and the perfection of the coup To the Commander we believe this merit is due. The yachts were in spected on Monday last on behalf cf the Queen by her Grace the Duchess of Athol, and in the afternoon of the same day the Commander-in-Chief of Ports mouth, Admiral Sir Thomas Biggs, G.C.M.G., and party paid a visit to the royal vessels. Captain Crikpin received those distinguished visitors on the quarter-deck, and con ducted them over the ship. Whether wo look at the decks, which are covered fore and aft with oak pattern floor cloth, ad well selected furniture, themachinery, the handsomely end appropriately carved wheels, binnacle, &c., or at the material and arrangement of the upholstery be low, we are alike struck with the exceeding beauty and regal character of each feature, and yet there is nothing gaudily showy or thoughtlessly extravagant about any portion of them. It would be impossible for any structures afloat to be rendered more worthy of Royal approbation than her Majesty's steamers Victoria and Albert and the Fairy. On Wednesday they were taken a cruize to test their efficiency before receiving the Court, who this day embark in them for the Isle of Wight.— ismoutli Times and Naval Gazette. ------- - .ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. CITY OF LONDON. Strenuous efforts are being made by a portion of the Liberal constituency, headed by Mr. C. Gilpin and Mr. 11. Batemen, to induce two new candidates to present themselves, and, notwithstanding the avowed unwilling ness of Mr. Wigrnm Crawford to come forward, placards were yesterday circulated calling upon the electors not to yield to dictation, but to vote for that gentleman and Mr. John Ingrain Travers, intimating that, if elected, they must serve. Mr. Travers, of St. Swithin's-lane, is at the head of the largest wholesale grocery establish ment in the kingdom, and is the son of the well-known Mr. Travers, who, in conjunction with the then Mr. Jones Loyd (now Lord Overstone), took so leading a part in the passing of the Reform Bill, and who was re peatedly invited to stand for the City, but declined. The eer e d A ,very much in the hands of the Re form City election, as far as the Liberal candidates are con cerned, however,and as that body determined nearly a month ago to support the present Lib era l M em b ers, there is every probability that th e gent l emen above named will not will ingly allow themselves to be nomi nated. It is stated, however, that Mr. Crawford's sup porterswill positively proceed t o t h e poll. In the mean second Conservativ e can di date is named, and under these circumstances the old R e f orm party have no desire to oppose t h e re - election of Mr. M as t erman. tim e n o WESTMINSTER.

In conclusion, he expressed the great confi dence which he felt in the Power of our institutions, properly reformed, to promote the interests of all par ties in the State—to maintain the Throne and the aria tocracy, and, at the same time, advance the freedom, the happiness, and the prosperity of all classes of the people. The Hon. Baronet resumed his seat amid loud cheers. Thanks having been voted to the chairman the meet ing separated. tions of this country required; he should have the quell.. fication of resideuce. The vote ought to be taken by ballot. The duration of Parliament ought to be shorter. let granting political power they ought to accom pany it by an extension of education. Ho expressed himself as favour able to a system of secular education, giving opportunities after school hours and on Sundays to communicate religious education. There existed large funds for educational purposes at present; but many cases were known in which those funds went into the pockets of the clergy. A l arge port i on might be paid into a general fund for educational purposes. He ac knowledged the large contributions made by different denominations for such objects. There was a great English spirit peeping out in charitable, religious, and educational institutions; and wherever the English race had diffused itself there would be found the hospital, the school, the church, carrying out what appeared to be the feeling of the English race in favour of religion, bene volence, and education. A people actuated by such feel ings was, he argued, worthy to be entrusted with an ex- Leaded suffrage; but education must go hand in hand with an extension of political power, and the disappointment of the people of the continent in their endeavours to secure freedom seemed attributable to their having neither se cular nor political education. He impressed upon those whom he addressed the necessity of guarding against encroachments on the great principle of local self-go vernment. In their parishes and districts, the people ought carefully to watch the least attempt on the part of the Imperial Government to lay a hand on their pri vileges ; because they might depend upon it the great English mind was instructed in the exercise of political power by exercisin g the power it did i n t h e par i s h, in the county, or the division. Political progress had not maintained itself abroad, because the people were not used to the exercise of power in their local character. The Hon. Gentleman then proceeded to express his conviction that free trade was the only policy for the people of this country who were the receivers of the whole world ; and adverted to the necessity of altering a system of taxation under which great inequalities existed, the 2s. 20. of tax paid on tea, which did not cost the merchant at Canton more, perhaps, than 7d. per lb., bein g i mpose d o n the inferior qualities used by the poor as well as the higher qualities used by the rich. He deprecated the continuance of the taxes on knowledge, and assimilated the advertisement duty to the tax on Lea, the tax paid by the richest merchant being the same with that paid by the poorest maid -servant. He de clared that his desire was to conserve what was good, and to reject and amend what was bad. He thought that this country ought not to be called on to pay 4,000,0001. for its colonies, reversing the ancient rule, and making the mother country the tributary of those colonies for the sake of some patronage to ministers. A saving might also he effected in the diplomatic establish ments. With respect to the question of civil and reli gious liberty, he held that there ought to be religious equality—that every person, whether Jew, Roman Ca tholic, Dissenter, or Churchman, was, without inquiry into his creed, entitled, as a citizen of the State, to all its privileges. Ho thought also that the Government ought not to pay for any religious teaching. He had been asked if he was in favour of the grant to Maynooth. He was in favour of no grant. The taxes raised for secular purposes ought to be applied to secular purposes alone. The Hon. Gentleman resumed his seat amid loud expressions of applause. In answer to questions, Mr. WYLD said he had always voted for the emanci pation of the Jews. There was a distinction in the House of Commons between public and private Bills, many of the private Bills being public jobs; and the reason why his name did not appear in so many divi sions as others was, that he never did vote for a job, and he hoped he never would With respect to his absence from divisions on the ballet (an elector had stated that the Hon. Gentleman had been absent from four), he bad written to M r . B er k eley on the subj ect. Alf. Berkeley thought he paired off, and suggested that, on reference to the Times or some other journal, the cir cumstance would he found mentioned; and Mr. Berkeley added thet the feeling on his mind was, that he (Mr. Wyld) had been and would be a supporter of the ballot. There was no public question on which he thought his con stituents interested on which he would not vote, whether he were ill or whether he were well. On every occa sion on which even the poorest and meanest of his con stituents had an interest he should be present. [An elector stated that the Hon. Gentleman had voted with the Whig Government, and when not, that he had been absent; and asked whether, should the Whigs come into office again, hp would sit for Finsbury independent of Whig or Tory T] He had been a perfectly independent Member; he was no liken of the Whigs, who had failed in fulfilling their promises. He should be very careful again in trusting such promises, and the should vote as a perfectly independent Member. The Hon. Gentleman, in reply to further inquiries, stated that he should cer tainly go to the poll, having given a pledge of his since rity in paying his contribution for the hustings. He had voted for the repeal of the malt tax, would repeal the tax on fire and life assurances, give an account of his stewardship annually, and resign on receiving a requi sition as numerously signed as that on which he had become a candidate. Mr. Masos, printer, urged the meeting to support Mr. Wyld, in conjunction with Mr. Duncombe, and moved the following resolution:— " That having heard Mr. Wyld's declaration of his political principles, and being of opinion that the pro motion of such principles will advance the happiness and prosperity of the nation, we pledge ourselves to promote his return to the House of Commons as one of the repre sentatives of the borough of Finsbury." Mr. Matteizeto seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclamation, and The proceedings terminated. TOWER HAMLETS. There will be a strong contest is this, the largest borough constituency in the kingdom, the effect of which will be to split up the Liberal interest into a variety of sections. Mr. G. Thompson has now publicly coalesced with Mr. Acton S. Avrton, and it is understood that a similar arrangement has been virtually made between Sir W. Clay and Ur. Salusbury Butler. Mr. W. New ton, of the defunct Amalgamated Society, stands alone, resting his claims upon the advocacy of the rights of labour, and his hop e s u p on th e C ompound Householders Bill, Which confers the franchise upon a numerous plass in this borough. In the list of candidates for the Tower Hamlets, pub lished yesterday, the name of Mr. Butler was omitted. LAMBETH. Mr. Joseph Harvey ed, the excitement conse quent upon a cont estedelection havine , proved altogether too much for his physique. It is stated by his supporters that he had received nearly 7,000 promises out of a re gister of something less than 18,000, so that if he bad persevered his chances would have been considerable. The field is thus for the present left free to Messrs. D'Eyncourt and Williams, but attempts are being made to introduce other candidates. Amongst them Mr. D. W. Wire has been waited on, but it is not probable that he will consent to stand, or, if he does, that he will be re turned. An address to the electors from the chairmen of Mr. Harvey's committee, and the copy of a medical certificate BS to that gentleman's state of health have been circulated in the borow7h. c a n T d h i t e l a r e t e l . l m oored that the nominations w i ll has bean isru no talk whatever of a C onserva ti ve take place on Thursday.

The trans actions reported were Coventry and Nuneaton, 126—North Staffordshire, 6 dis. — Shrewsbury and Birmingham (B), MONEY MAEKET.—The quotation of gold at Paris is about 4 per mine prem. (according to the new tariff), which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 100, per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange cf 23.27 ; and the ex change at Paris on London at short being 25.27, it follows that gold is about at the same price in Paris and London. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is about 430 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 117/ ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.8, it follows that gold is about 0.23 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of ex change at New York on London for bills at CO days' sight is 1101 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is nominally 0.92 per cent. in favour of England. And, after making allowance for charges of transport, the present rate leaves a small profit on the importation of gold from the United Staten. BIRTHS. • OF A SON.
