A PORTRAIT OF THE DUKE OF IVELLINGTO N TOGETUER WITII THE MOST provide the quartz at their own expense, running tunnels, sinking shafts, and other works necessary to ensure a sufficient supply of the material. While he undertook, for those whom he represented, to erect machinery, and to crush and amalgamate the quartz, all the gold thus obtained was to be equally divided. In order that this beneficial contract might be car ried out without any delay, Sir HENRY purchased an engine and machinery in California, which he imme diately dispatched to the locality, but another unex pected obstacle arose ; when the engine was erected it was found that something more was wanted to ren der it effective. Before these could be procured the rainy season had set in with unusual severity, render ing the roads impassable, so that it was not until the latter end of March that the machinery could be got into working condition. . _ By this time, however, a great change had teken place in this country. Public opinion had set in in favour of the company. Capital to almost any ex tent was available ; and those who had formerly scoffed or hung back while any doubt existed PS to iti ultimate success, endeavoured to obtain a share in that which they had once industriously de preciated. It wrl on the arrive l , of Mr. DAVIEF, en intelligent and experienced person, accom panied by a well sel-lted body of practicel miners—that Sir HENRY lerrned the improved posi tion of the Company which he represented—end that he was, therefore, in a position to carry out his operations on a scale of much greater magnitude, and that there was machinery in progress of very superior power. The mining property, too, had been placed upon a more satisfactory basis during the interval. A good and safe title could be obtained, while the Corn pang with which be had entered into the provisional agreement were not exhibiting the zeal or activity he had anticipated, nor could he venture to place im plicit reliance, on their professions. He, therefore, decided on independent action, and was speedily enabled to acquire possession of " the Dicksburg Mine," a property offering extraordinary advantages, there being a water-mill erected thereon, the lcies exhibiting an apparently inexhaustible mass of auri ferous qurrtz, which on every trial yielded highly satisfactory results ; and also an ample supply of water power, with gocd sites for other mills, and an abundance of timber on the spot for all necessary erections. He entered on this property in July, and the re sult of his experience since that period has been of the most pleasing description. The tests already applied have been so highly satisfactory, that he de term fined to work without any further delay. The engine and machinery dispatched last year have been forwarded to the mine, and steps taken for its erection, and it is in all human probability ere this, in profitable operation, —nay, more, it is by no means unlikely that some of its produce is already on its way to this country. In addition to the Dicksburg Mine, Sir HENRY hts also taken a lerae of the Carolina Mine situated near Placerville, on the Sacramento river, on very advantageous terms, which is also in operation at present. A daring enterprise, it must be admitted—that of surpassing those wonderful aquerous achievements. Daring though the project is, it may be at once per ceived from the programme that it is seriously about to be attempted. At either extremity of the building there will be erected an enormous tower 256 feet high, having each at the summit a capacious reser voir. These reservoirs will supply an abundance of water for the various fountains and cascades. At the commencement of the " display," starting from the Palace, the water will emerge from the arches of the highest terrace on the right and left of the grand central archway, tumbling through in a succession of cascades. Thence, as they descend, in place of glid ing away beneath, the currents will respectively leap sheer down, in a solid but transparent curve, over the lowest terrace—so that the visitors may pass under the glittering curtain as under that of a miniature Niagara. Subsequently, the two streams will tra veree the whole length of the principal approach, on either side dashing onwards in noisy rapids or cata racts ; and after replenishing a number of fountains, shaped like tazza3, will close their career in two enormous basins, each 380 feet in diameter, and each having a pyramidal group of jets to the number of 800, the largest jet in the cluster throwing up water to the enormous height of 230 feet perpendicular. Scattered round these will be " dancing fountains," soaring to the height of 130 feet ; and beyond these sixteen others shooting up water 90 feet into the air. Well may the official prospectus of the prepara tions observe that " there is nothing of the kind at all approaching in magnificence the display of waterworks contemplated by the plans at this point." The grand eaux at Versailles, marvellous as they are, and unri valled as they have been hitherto justly considered, will scarcely regard as unworthy of comparison the pyramidal fountains and the subordinate jets and cas cades at Sydenham, for the supply of which 2,000 gallons per second will require to be put in requisi tion Besides the fountains already enumerated, there will be one of very considerable dimensions, into the vast basin of which water will flow round the edges in an enormous bell-shape—eight or nine others being distributed over the terraced gardens, sparkling among beds of the most brilliant-coloured flowers,—flowers, the profusion of which may be estimated from the single item, among similar orders recently issued, for 50,000 roots of the scarlet geranium Scattered among these fountains, and flowers, and cascades, and ter races, will be strange specimens of the monsters of geology, contrasted with statues carved out of the white marble of Carrara. Remembering all this, were we extravagant in ta)king about the garden of the Hesperides ? As to the Palace itself—the Palace we have hinted at as not less marvellous than that of ALADDIN-it promises to abound, like the gardens outside, with fountains and statuary, but still more with colossal sculpture and elaborate specimens of architecture. Conspicuous among the more celebrated curiosities enshrined under the crystal roof, it is to be hoped, may ultimately be numbered one no less renowned than CLEOPATRA'S Needle. A winter garden, comprising all kinds of rare exotics, will, of course, as at first in tended, be of all the most -prominent, as well as the most delightful, o f th e many attraction s . F ore i gn birds, of a plumage as brilliant even as the foreign vegetation, will be added to the splendours of the collection. Hardwares and textile fabrics, minerals and precious atones, will be displayed in profusion, with the most beautiful productions of Art, the most astonishing achievements of Science, and the most extraordinary products of Industry. Such are among a few of the internal embellishments of the second Pa lace of ALADDIN, in the modern garden of the Hespe rides. NEWMARKET RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

At the East India House special meeting of pro prietors to-day, the following resolution was carried, with one dissentient only :—" That the Court concur in the unanimous resolution of the Court of Directors, that, as a testimonial of gratitude with which the East India Company must ever remember that the glorious career of the Duke of Wellington com menced in India, and that the consolidation of the British power there was greatly promoted by his brilliant achievements, a marble statue of that illus • trious Commander be placed in the General Court Room." This is a course well befiaing a great body deriv ing its wealth from commerce, and yet indebtod for most of its grandeur to the political rad military career of its governors and commanders-in-chief. The amount of bullion on board the Lima and Ganges arrived yesterday was about 208,000!. The Turkish Loan business dc2s not improve upon further acquaintance. On the pert of the contractors at Paris we have a very prop - er hint that it would be unwise to send to Constantinople for the firman, es this has never apparently been produced, because the onus rests with the Ambrssador, Prince who was alleged to have ample powers, special and general. That the contractors did not require a copy of the firman ere they undertook to raise the loan, is we think, to I'3 regretted; but we must not judge after the fact, and it is possible no one would have originally thought of being more cautious. An Ambassador is a high personage supposed to pos sess to the fullest extent the corqdence of his Govern ment, both es a man of honour and ability; and to have doubted his instructions would have been per haps uncomplimentary. There is a delicate mode, however, of managing pecuniary as well es diplomatic negociations, and with proper tsct the official copy of the firman might have been asked rather es a basis of operations than el a necessary confirmation of the Prince's authority. Itie:ore now assured, in a letter from Messrs. Devaux, of Paris, that the Prince had both special and generel authority, and awkward Ps it may be, the ex-ambassador will be constrained, if the loan is not ratified, to give to the world the fullest possible explanations. Even the disclosure of State secrets, if any such exists, would be justificatory, under the circumstances, but that we must rensemb.a the natural desire the Prince may have to return to his own country, and the risk he incurs if he op poses too strongly the powers that be. Lord Stratford, or, in his unlucky absence, Colonel Rose, may properly be called upon to inter fere in protection of the subscrit era to this loan, because its non-ratification is apparently grounded upon diplomatic considerations, end the loan Wr% brought forward by the Ambrssador of Turkey. In another sense, however, we can only act a secondary part to the French, the contract being taken in their metropolis. The Turkish Consul-General in London requests a susr ension of judgment in the affair until the explanations of the Turkish Government are given, but however desirable it may be to have these, and however exculpatory they may prove, the most important point cannot in the least be altered by , it, viz. the obligation of Turkey to indemnify the sub scribers to the ion, and punish its own officials, if culpable, hereafter. The English Stock market has been very quiet again, and there is no chrnge in prices. Consols have been 100 k to 4 for transfer, end 1001 to i 3 -3 for account.

It is a highly satisfactory document, explaining the various steps that have been taken by the expedition under the command of Sir HENRY VERE HUNTLEY since their arrival at the scene of their future labours, and clearly pointing out the present position and prospects of the company. Many difficulties have necessarily occurred, but they have been succes , fully encountered—ond we hope ere long to be enabled to congratulate the Directors and share holders on reaping a golden harvest, the legitimate reward of their enterprize and perseverance. It will be in the recollection of our reader., that this company was the first started in the United Kingdom for the purpose of bringing joint-stock en terpriz3 into operation in the gold fields of California. At first the prometers were treated with ridicule, and every effort was made to sneer down the undertaking. It required no ordinary nerve to bear up age;.nst the amount of direct vituperation, or, what was p-rbaps worse, the apathetic and cold-blooded indifference to which they were exposed. Distinct and positive charges were brought forward, and these were accom panie 1 by " The whisper'd hint—the shrug—ths hum or ha, Those petty brands that calumny doth use," Many openly declared that the concern was little better than a deliberate swindle, while the more cha ritably disposed considered it a mere visionary scheme, and opinion app eared to be di vided as to whether th e Directors should be clnsed ranong "the d upers " or " the duped." But there were men of unflinching determination engaged in the transaction. Having satisfied them selves of the soundness and feasibility of the under taking, and having secured the services and c aaor ,„ ration of Sir HENRY VERB HUNTLEY, a gentleman of station and character, they resolved to go on despite every impediment or obstruction. Bat a small proportion of the capital was subscribed for, and a still smaller proportion peid up—for the " corvine" fraternity, who are so virtuously indignant at any managerial lapse, have no hesitation in disre garding their own positive promises to pay on the shares for which they make application, unless an immediate profit can be realized, Th e Directors,. however, made th e most of the means at their disposal, and dispatched Sir HENRY in March, 1851, sen di ng out also a steam-engine and crushing mills. "[al l On his arrival, Sir reference"great to the tenor© of raining property, and th at the titles of the claimants „ r possessors of quartz veins could not be relied on." Here was a new difficul ty. Ifheaanittienmepted to enter into a treaty for the purchase of Lion of the a uriferous soil, he might fi,nodr anytnot " pt the money paid, but all the ear l y exertionsf the company w o u ld ha wasted and misa ppii , d —a re suit which, in the then state of public opinion i n England, would have been fatal to the prospects of ' the undertaking. Ile, therefore, exhibited a salutary caution, deciding rather to operate on the gold-bear log quartz produced to him by others than to en deavour to obtain the material for himself. While awaiting the arrival of his machinery dis patched from England—which, being sent via Cape Horn, was considerably delayed en route—he di rected his attention to the selection of a favour able site on which to commence operations. He speedily entered into an arrangement with an .timerilan company in actual possession of a m t mine, by ;which ;• .7, 3 2 ' ' agree d that they rshollid , While Sir HENRY has thus been displaying the high qualities requisite for the judicious management of such an undertaking—acquiring for himself and the Company with which he is connected the respect and confidence of the inhabitants of the districts, the home Directors have not been idle. They have already dispatched, in May last, " an engine equal to fifty horse power, with crushing-mills and stamps of cor responding force, together with a waterwheel, pumps, and all suitable gear—the whole of the best work • manship, from the manufactory of Messrs. WEST and Sort, of St. Blazey. They have also contracted for some of " Baggs' patent quartz-crushing apparatus," an invention of the greatest importance, and which gives an almost unlimited power to its possessors. It has indeed already accomplished more than had ever previously been even thought of. Crushing the material to a fine powder, and thus enabling the operators to separate the precious metal from the quartz with comparatively trifling difficulty or labour. These will be ready within a fortnight, and when on the spot 150 tons per diem may be crushed—we cannot venture to state the amount of gold that may be obtained therefrom. We may, however, once more cordially congratulate all parties concerned on the aespicious prospect before them, and which promises to render the concern, notwithstanding its early trials and difficulties, ono of the most remunerative ever brought under public notice. Fairyland is gradually collecting together its mar vels in the immediate vicinity of our vast and dingy metropolis. Within view of St. Paul's Cathedral— that is, upon a tolerably clear day when the gilded ball•and-cross can just twinkle through the smoke of London—there are now growing up a Garden and a Palace such as the world has seldom if ever seen the like of, except in the exquisite dreams of the imagina tion : a Palace like that of ALADDIN, and a Garden like that of the Hesperides. Fortunately, the inha bitants of this capital were enabled, ie 1851, to wit ness the miracles of ingenuity which genius, aided by industry, was capable of calling forth upon a few of the green sods of Hyde Park—so that the remem brance of that extraordinary Exhibition relieves us from the fear that, in 1852, our allusions to what is being at this moment accomplished in the neighbour hood of Sydenham, may be derided as some empty and idle fanfaronade. The marvellous beauty of the Crystal Palace erected within a few weeks near Hyde Park Corner, is a sufficient guarantee that whatever may be seriously projected in regard to the scheme of its reconstruction, is at any rate within the limits of practicability ; and that, however improbable may be the grandeur and diversity of the proposed achieve ment, they will inevitably, and that, moreover, within the prescribed period, be beheld in their fullest reali zation. We all of us believe this with the sense of a cairn and implicit conviction. We believe it, because we remember what has already been achieved lay Sir JOSEPH PAXTON, in that magic edifice where all the nations of the earth stored up for a while whatever Art could display of the Beautiful, or Science of the Marvellous. We believe it, because we call so very vividly to mind those wonderful perspectives of blue end yellow by which OwEN JONES eclipsed the most gorgeous corridors of the Alhambra! We believe it, because we have in recollection the mingled celerity and precision with which Sir CHARLES Fox caused to fall into their appointed places, as if in obedience to the wand of a magician, those thousands of girders, end millions of sashes, and miles of counter, and acres of glass, required in the building up of that fabric of iron and crystal. Assurances like these were needed, in order to convince us of the possibility of seeing at last effected what is spoken of as at this instant in the process of development in the midst of the sylvan glades and meadow scenery of Sydenham. The external embellishments alone, promise to render the vicinity of the New Crystal Palace more remarkable for beauty than possibly even the most lovely spot that can now be found in Christendom. Immediately in front of the principal fa (jade of the edifice, we learn that there is to be constructed en Italian garden, extending over some forty acres, and having a breadth of one thousand six hundred rid fifty feet, disposed in a series of terraces at once superb and picturesque. Upon this portion of the enterprise alone, there is to be ex pended a suns of no less than 60,000/. sterling ! According. to the plan sketched out by the master hand of Sir JosEra PAXTON, the grounds are to be mapped out upon th© same scale of proportions es that to be observed in the architectural arrangements. In illustration of this it, may be observed that every dimen sion will have a multiple of eight feet in the Garden as well as in the Palace, out of which will come har mony and grandeur in very exquisite combination The grandour may be conjectured from the circum stance of the principal approach and terrace being 96 feet wide, the majority of the others 48 feet, and none less than 24 feet. Again, the harmony may be ima gined from the intention kept in view throughout by Sir JOSEPH PAXTON, that of so arranging the external decorations that the ornate splendours of the Italian Garden shall gradually merge into the more homely and less artificial beauties of the English, and that these again shall almost imperceptibly glide off into the more moderately -cultivated charms of the sur rounding landscape. Intermingling with the par terres and the shrubberies will be a gorgeous system of fountains, which, it is proposed, shall surpass the astonishingly lofty j ets at t. Cloud, and the most glorious of the mythological groups spouting out their vast columns of watr on f9:,,-cll7l at Versailles. Were we not right, therefore, in our assertion that there is now collecting together, in the immediate neighbourhood of London, almost under the shado w of its smoke, and within the sound of its roaring com merce, a variety of works at once beautiful and extra ordinary, such as will, in a few months hence, trans form the woodlands of Sydenham into the semblance of Fairyland? And it is this region of enchantment which has roused the bile of Praise-God-Barebones, and excited the horror of Zeal-of-the-land-Busy, and called forth expressions of the sanctimonious indignation of or* dear old friends the Sabbatariansl Itwas the announce ment of the probable opening of the Crystal Palace on Sundays, which brought about the assemblage of some thousand individuals on Monday last, in the parochial school room of a Chapl of Ease io the Liverpool-road, a meeting presided over by the Re verend Master-of-Acts Wasoal, the Vicar of Is l ;ng.. ton. According to the sentiments expressed by the majority of the speakers upon this occasion, we ought to look forward with dismay to the probable strolling upon some Sunday afternoon of a poor rrtizsn, with his wife and cluster of little children, through the gardens of the Crystal Palace, at Sydenham, as to a foul rod most grievous desecration. Upon the same principle, there must surely always be upon the same days a sort of vegetable sin in the budding of a sweet-pea—a sort of insect culpa bility in the birth of a butterfly—a sort of zoological crime in the suckling of a lamb upon the meadows— a sort of infamy carried up into the skies in the we - bling of a lark at daybreak—an evil in the spawning of a minnow, and an abomination in the very sparkle of a rivulet. If there be ill in the mere sight of such things on the LORD'S Day, surely there must—in common logic—be a threefold evil in the things themselves. What nonsense is this the Saints of the so-called Sabbath are preaching to us in open day, with grave faces, as though nothing less than idiotcy prevailed among the population ? People are not such dullards as to suppose, for el instant, that the awful and Holy Loam of the Universe can be dis pleased because the little creatures he hri created in the palm of His hand like grains of dust, go out for a while from their reeking cities upon the appointed day of rest to breathe the fresh air, and to walk among the green trees—Ps the Sacred Book even tells us the GOD of Heaven himself was won't to do in the cool of evening in the garden of Paradise I Away rather with that squalor of the intellect and abjectness of the imagination, which are in themselves the most despicable of all possible desecrations of the Sunday —away rather with that grovelling bigotry and narrow-minded fanaticism, which would shut for ever the eyes of the over-toiled end the under-paid from that glorious scroll of Nature which the DIVINITY has lettered with flowers end wiltten over with planets, and in which the very child can spell, with the most wonderful accuracy, the mystic truths of religion. It is not by shutting the labourer up con tinually between the sordid walls of the conventicle that you can best instil into his heart the solemn and exquisite principles of Christianity. Let him obtain, at least at intervrls, a glimpse cf the baautifri roi verse in which he exists for a time but es to atom, and you will the most effectually expand his intelli gence, purify his morality, and elevate his aspirations.
