P ' 7 ,7 .7' ;. t;,r ' e , *,4 , :fi Mr. Gladstone comes to the preSerititnalf, ". c. -fffil)c The work of himself and all .iiiie Ittfor - Dionf is henceforth to be this. They are to " eVour&fe the calm, serious, orderly, and temperate expressions of opinion,".words which, interpreted by Mr. Glad stone's previous letter, must be taken to mean that Trafalgar-square is to be occupied once a week with a mob ; that a grand demonstration of the people is to take place on the same evening under the right honourable gentleman's windows ; that the Carlton Club is to be besieged, exit and entry stopped, its members insulted and assaulted ; and_ finally, that upon the first occasion the vigilance of the police can be eluded Lord Elcho's windows are to be broken, his door-knocker carried off in triumph, and his household annoyed and terrified. That we take it is the Gladstone and Potter plan of campaign, and we have no objection to it. The more thoroughly they carry it out the better we shall certainly be pleased. The more distinctly Mr. Gladstone identifies himself with the party of in timidation and disorder the less will be the power of both for mischief. But welcome as such a cam paign will be to us, because certain to result in the complete disaster of the enemies of the Constitution, it is, we must confess, sad to see a man who, like Mr. Gladstone, once commanded so much esteem and good-will, who possesses such rare gifts, and to whom so great a career seemed open, sink to co operate with the motley crew of out-door Reform agitators, of whose eloquence Monday night gave us such glorious examples. It is bad enough that honest and well-meaning working men should be gulled by such leaders ; that Mr. Gladstone should call them to his councils, and treat them as brothers in arms, is pitiable in the extreme. ~~ ~k • ONDON must have a SUPPER and MUSIC JI ROOM for Gentlemen.

Forme EDWARD HARPER, Secretary. The following despatch from the American Minister at Paris has been sent by President John son to the Senate House of Representatives, in answer to their resolutions, requesting information in regard to the employment of European troops in Mexico : and Lieut.-Colonel Pistohlkors led the Cossacks to the charge. Captain Abramof executed the order with great coolness. Neither the redoubled activity of the cannonade and fusilade nor the entrenchments checked the column of assault. All advanced as on the parade-ground. At the end of half an hour our infantrymen had already bayoneted the Bokharian artillerymen at their guns, and our artillery, now placed in position on the inner side of the entrench ments, destroyed with its grapeshot the new masses who attempted to stop the assailants. Simultaneously with the column of Captain Abramof, Lieut.-Colonel Pistohlkors went forward with his cavalry. At the same time he can nonaded vigorously with his six pieces, on the one hand the forces endeavouring to stop Captain Abramof, and whom he took in flank, and on the other hand newmassos of cavalry and infantry assembling in front of him. Moving rapidly from one position to another, he hemmed in the enemy- more and more closely, and, after hav ing overthrown them, put them to flight in the greatest disorder. All the ground between the first entrench ments and the Bokharian camp was covered with dead left by the enemy. His flight was so precipitate that he did not dare to halt in his camp, which ourlroops found filled with all his effects, and showing all the marks of recent occupa tion—pots in which food was being cooked, lighted fires, tea prepared, &c.. .

Only cc At nine o'clock the darkness compelled • ia themorn ting ahte daybreak discontinu anceafeeble column was sent out to occupy the second Bokharian camp, which the Emir had evacuated in the evening, leav ing also almost all the baggage. Ris own tent had rema i ne d in the condition in which it had been occupied by the Sove reign of Bokhara, the Chief of Islamism in Central Asia. There were found there a quantity of carpets, divans, kitchen utensils, and a multitude of objects of Asiatic luxury. " During these operations Colonel Kraievsky's detach ment from Kiriontchi arrived on the 20th at 5 p.m. on the rightbankof the Syr-Daria ,opposite Irdjar. Although this detachment had taken no part in the action its appearance and some shots of rifled cannon ably directed sufficed to exercise a certain influence on the progress of the battle, and hinder the flying enemy from resorting to the territory beyond the Tchirtehik, where their presence would have been troublesome to us. " In this brilliant affair our loss was 12 soldiers wounded (sic). The enemy left more than 1,000 dead on the field. Our trophies consisted of six pieces of artillery, taken in the assault on the position, and four pieces abandoned by the enemy in his flight. In continuing to advance our columns would probably find other guns, for the prisoners report that in his flight the Emir -only took away two pieces. They even say that he was not slow to abandon them on the road to Oratepe, and that he only brought back 2,000 horsemen to Djouzak. Besides the baggage there were found in the camps immense stores of powder, and all the artillery train. Without counting the car tridges with which the roads were strewn which the enemy followed in his flight, we found about 670 ponds (24,1201 b.) of powder, 220,000 cartridges, as well as a mass of bullets, shells, and other artillery ammunition. "After this victory Major-Gen. Romanovsky advanced and occupied the fortress of Nau, and by the capture of Khodjent has separated Bokhara from Khokan."

Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arphos. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmitance, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals t o poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ?

It was expected that the unanimous decision of the masters to resist the advance; would have deterred the workmen from persisting in their demand; but this. does not seem likely to be the case. An aggregate meeting of delegates was held at the weavers' committee-room, on Monday night, at which the speakers denied the allegations made at the meeting of master; and passed a resolution to abide by the original demand. They spoke in favour of a lock out rather than of a strike, but how they can sup port either alternatir is not very pl a i n , as they are in a very distressed in hand. Th e y a rgue th a t some of the masters will b e only too glad to owing to having a number of contracts, w hich are subject t o a pena lt y f or non-fulfil ment, condition,gife in and, as a body, have no funds within the specified time. Wednesday being the day when many firms " take in" their work, the men re solved that the first master who refused the advance should be struck against. The dispute awaits this issue. and their f am i l i es have left the town in the hope of obtaining employment in M wi a t n h y in w th e e av p ers ast few month; and now many more are Some time ago (b e f ore th e F renc h T rea ty), L pr a e n p e aLi h ng ire t . o g s o o , there were between 4,1)00 and 5,000 weavers in the town; there aro now not more than 2,000. There are more than 1,000 empty houses in , the borough, and cottage property has been depreciated 50 per cent. Yesterday the weavers in three firms struck work upon the masters (Messrs. Critchley, Brinsley, and Co., Mr. Birchonougb, and Mr. David Reddish) refusing to pay the advanced prices. At night the masters met to decide upon what course of action they should adopt. They agreed that, if the weavers would withdraw their proposed list, the masters would meet them again, and try whether, by some mutual concessions, they could, not settle the existing dispute. AN OWL'S REVENGE.—The Avranchiil states that in a commune near Avranches an owl has taken terrible vengeance for the loss of her young, which had been killed by a farmer's lad. For four days the owl was on the watch for the destroyer, and on the fifth, upon the boy leaving the farmhouse, the injured bird, which had been perched upon a tree, pounced down upon him, and with one stroke of its claws tore out his left eye, the sight of which is per manently destroyed, Legation of the United State; Paris, June 4. Sir,—l waited upon his Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs on Saturday last, in pursuance of a pre vious appointmenrto confer with him upon the subject matter of your instructions, N 0.459, marked "Confidential." As he had already been apprised of the contents of that despatch, through the French Minister residing at Wash ington, I was spared the necessity of restating them, li e said that the Imperial Government proclaimed its intention to retire from Mexico because it suited its convenience and interests to retire, and for no other reason. When, therefore, it announced formally not merely to the United States, but to all the world, that the army would be with drawn from Mexico within a'specified time, he thought it ,should be deemed sufficient. The Government made its declaration in good faith, and means to keep it. It means to withdraw its army within the term prescribed, and it does not intend to take one or two hundred in the first detachment, and one or two' hundred more in the second, leaving the great body of them to the last, though it had not deemed it necessary to specify with minuteness details of this kind, which depend upon hygienic and climateric considerations, of which it was the best and the only com petent judge. This, his excellency said, he wished I would say to our Government. I asked his excellency if I had ever intimated to him whether, in writing or orally, any suspicion existed of the Emperor's intention to withdraw his army from Mexico in unequal portions. He replied that I had not. I then asked him if any other person authorisod to speak in the name of my Government had done so. He said no. But he had read imputations of that kind in one of our papers. 1 replied in substance that the press was a law unto itself, and that we had better not accept it as a law unto us ; and as he asked me to communicate tl my Government a formal answer to what sounded like an accu sation of insincerity and bad faith on the part of the Em peror, I wanted his authority for stating that no such ac cusation had reached him through any official channel. He replied that he only had read it in a newspaper. I then went on to say that the purpose of your instruction, as I understood it, was simply to obtain an explanation, which was sure to be required of you, of the shipment in France of large bodies of troops to Mexico after the purpose to withdraw her whole army had been officially proclaimed. To this his Excellency replied, that since seeing me had gotten from his colleagues of the Marine and War Depart ments information to the purport that no:troops belonging to the Corps Expeditionaire had been sent to Mexico this year, unless for the sake of partly replacing soldiers miss ing, but at any rate without augmentation of the number of standing troops ; that the shipment of troops referred to in the public prints and in your despatch *as most likely that made in the transport Rhone about the beginning of the year; that this Rhone touched at Martinique, but not at St. Thomas, as was stated ; that she carried 916, and not 1,200, soldiers ; that they belonged to the Foreign Legion, and not to the Expeditionary Corps ; that they consisted of troops which had been waiting transportation a long time in France and in Algeria to join their regiments; that no new troops had been enrolled for the Foreign Legion since the Emperor proclaimed his purpose to withdraw his flag from Mexico ; and that no more, for what he knew, were intended to be enrolled. In regard to the shipment of troops from Austria, he said that that' was an affairs entirely between that Government and the Mexican, with which France , had nothing to do ; that since I had spoken to him on the subject he had verified his own convictions by a reference to the Ministers of War and Marine, and had ascertained that no engagements of any sort had been entered into by either for the enrolment or transportation of troops from Austria to Mexico. He went on further to say that it was the intention of the Government to with draw the army entirely from Mexico within the time spe cified in his despatch to you at the very latest—sooner if climate and other controlling considerations permitted; and it was not its intention to replace them with other troops from any'quarter. At the conclusion of a long con versation, of which I have given the important results, I expressed my satisfaction with his excellency's explana tion, and the pleasure I should have in communicating them to my Government. This despatch has been sub mitted to M. Drouyn de l!lluys, and the foregoing version of the results of our conversation has been approved by him.—l am, sir, with very great respect, your obedient servant, JOHN BIGELOW. Hon. Wm. H. Seward, Department of State, Washington, D. C. Battle Between the Russians and Bokharians The Invalide Russe published an account of the great battle which the Russians fought in Central Asia on the 20th of May, of which a telegraphic report was received a few weeks ago. To under stand the narrative we ought to mention that be fore the action the Russians were encamped at Tchinaz, on the left bank of the Syr-Daria, while the Bokharians were at Irdjar, on the same bank, but several miles higher up the river. The follow ing is the Invalide s report : " The frequent appearance of the enemy's partisans in greater or less number in our rear, as well as on our lines of communication, and the presence of the principal army of the Emir at the place named Irdjar, absolutely necessi tated an offensive movement on our part, so much the more that on the 17th and 18th May positive information was received that the Emir, having returned from a two days' excursion to Samarcand, was disposed to attack us. With that view he had despatched part of his troops to the right bank of the Syr-Daria, upon our territory situated beyond the Tchirtchik (an affluent of the Syr-Daria, which flows past Taschkent and joins the Syr at Tchinaz). The army of the Emir was said to be very numerous, consisting of sarbazes, mounted riflemen, artillery, contingents of various local governors, and of sirghiz roaming over Bokharian territory. The number of the sarbazes and of the artillery, all regularly armed, was 5,000. The artil lery numbered 21 pieces, among which were some superior to ours. As for the Kirghiz their number was not less than 35,000. "On the 19th of May, at daybreak, the force at Tchinaz, consisting of 41 companies of infantry, 5 sotnias of Cos sacks,with 20 pieces of artillery and rockets, quitted its po sition to move on Irdjar. This detachment consisted of Lieut.-Col. Pistohlkors, with 5 sotnias of Cossacks, a rocket detachment, and 6 pieces of artillery; Capt. Abramof, with 6 companies and 8 pieces ; and Lieut.-Col. Fovitsky, with 8 companies and 6 pieces. The detachment carried provi sions for 12 days, and had besides 10 days' provisions on board the Perovsky. Simultaneously :with this detach ment, another from Kirioutchi, on the right bank opposite Tchinaz, under the command of Colonel Kraievsky, set out on its march for Irdjar, by the right bank of the Syr. " The first day the troops accomplished a stage of more than 20 miles with the thermometer at 40 deg. Reaumur, the enemy's cavalry contenting themselves with skirmish ing. There remained only 14 miles from Monrza Rabat, where the troops bivouacked for the first time, to the posi tion of the Emir at Irdjar. On the 20th of May at daybreak stray parties of the Bokharians began to show themselves in view of our camp. At nine o'clock our Cossacks had their first encounter with the Bokharian cavalry, which had some men killed; on our side one Cossack was wounded. At midday it became indispensable to advance the artillery and commence firing, which lasted without interruption till the end of the battle. After a short halt the troops ad vanced in the following order :—The column of Captain Abramof in advance, by the direct road leading to Irdjar; on the right and on the same level the column of Lieut.- Colonel Pistohlkors ; behind these two columns came, as a general reserve, three companies of a battalion of riflemen and a section of artillery, under the command of Major Pistchemouka ; the baggage was covered by four com panies and two pieces, under the command of Lieut.- Colonel Fovitsky. " Hardly had our troops resumed their march when masses of the enemy's cavalry appeared and surrounded the detachment. The march of the baggage became espe cially very arduous, and could only be facilitated, thanks to the extraordinary merit of Lieut.- Colonel Fivotsky, who was obliged at the same time to watch the movements of the train and repulse the incessant attacks to which it was exposed. The following fact may give an idea of the difficulties our troops had to surmount before reaching the enemy. When after the battle the tent of the Emir was seized there was found among other things a report of the Governor of Samarcand, who commanded the ad vanced position of the Bokharians, in which he announced that the Russians had been surrounded before attaining that position, and 1 hat he would not delay making them all prisoners. " Towards 5 o'clock, about a mile from the enemy's posi tion, our troops were received by a strong cannonade from his entrenchments, and masses of cavalry surrounded them completely, with the exception of their left wing. The re serve was then directed towards the left, andall our artillery put in position. Tho enemy having allowed us to advance good way, redoubled his cannonade, under whmichma ou n r ded p remained nearly an hour. Our a rtillery,Gieut : Col. co by Sil vers ti an , rendered us i m mense service. It was impossible to witness, w ithout being filled with admi ration, our al tillerymen working with extraordinary address and sangfroid in that heated atmosphere. Not a shot missed its aim. Towards 6 o'clock the attacks of the cavalry gre w feebler;, on the command of General Romanovsky, Captain Abraraof commenced the assault at the head of the infantry, Mr. JAMES MORTIMER invites attention to his patented Plans for Improved Separate Dwellings for all classes, which embrace an increase of street paving for each storey, public staircases, promenades, gardens, schools, reading, lecture, dining, and warerooms, baths, &c.; also workshops, with or without steam power, and perfect separation of tenants, to realise upwards of 12 per cent.—Further information of sir.

HERALD.—If we may forecast Mr. Gladstone's future political career from the letter he has ad dressed to Mr. George Potter, of strike notoriety, we must assume that he means to come forward in the House of Commons, and in the town, music, and temperance halls of South Lancashire, as the unmitigated demagogue. A few days ago we had ventured to hope that Mr. Gladstone had resolved to accept worthily the position he had made for himself, to take his place in the House of Commons as the leader of a powerful Opposition, but a leader prepared to deal fairly and honourably with his opponents, and determined to devote all his energies to the task of reconstituting the party which he had dislocated. These were objects which he might well have proposed to him self, objects in the energetic pursuit of which he might have regained the confidence he has lost, and assured himself the headship of the great Liberal party. But the echoes of the cries sent forth under his windows by the noisy boys who followed their leader to Carlton-house-terrace have apparently drowned all these sensible intentions if they were ever formed. The sweet voices of the unenfran chised who trooped down to Trafalgar-square from Clerkeuwell-green and Hoxton to proclaim the divinity of " the people's William," have intoxicated him with the diseased taste of one debauched by coarse and fiery spirits. He prefers to the appro bation of men of his own station, of his own party, orators who never open their mouths wit out con victing themselves of a shameful ignorance of the subject upon which they have the confidence to speak as Sir Oracles. And he seems to have made up his mind—so far have overweening vanity and childish rage carried him—to make Mr. Beales' pro gramme his programme, and agitation for the ob jects of the Reform League his business. The right hon. gentleman begins his letter to Mr. Potter by a stale display of indignation against the pretended insults and calumnies lavished upon the working classes. No one knows better than Mr. Gladstone that, in the debates upon the Reform Bill, no in sults or calumnies were thrown upon the working classes, and that those debates were marked rather by a spirit of servility towards that class, carried so far as to exalt them very many degrees above the middle classes in both political knowledge and poli tical virtue. Mr. Lowe did, indeed, insinuate that the lower you get in the social scale the larger is the amount of intoxication, violence, and other vices you meet with; - and that unfortunately is a fact, but a fact not due to any intrinsic inferiority on the part of working men, but to the circumstance that they are placed in conditions in which resistance to those vices is far harder than in the classes of society materially above them. Nobody in the House of Commons has denied that a working man, cmterisparibus, is as moral a man, and would be as conscientious an elector, as the middle-class man; but On other things are not equal, and that Mr. Gladstone and those who affect with him this indignation know very well. If they really cared for the working man they would devote themselves to the work of making those other things more equal instead of indulging in this mischievous and insincere declamation. Mr. Gladstone declines with reluctance, and with his richest verbiage the in vitation "extended" t o hi m by Mr. Potter in the name of the working men of London. Painful as this re fusal is to him, however, it is diminished when he re collects how well and nobly the cause of loyalty, order, freedom, and liberal policy has been defended by the representatives of the metropolis, with one single base exception, to which the ex-Minister in vites the particular attention of those executors of public justice, Mr. Potter and his myrmidons. The metropolitan members are evidently nature's noble men. Who can look, indeed, upon Messrs. Craw ford—the would-be saver of the Government—John Locke, Butler, Ayrton, Harvey Lewis, Chambers, Layard, Hughes, Mill, and M'Cullagh Torrens, on Baron Rothschild, Capt. Grosvenor, and last, but not least, the three aldermen, Salomons, Lusk, and Lawrence, without seeing outward patent signs of the glorious fire which burns within them ? But, the re presentatives of the metropolis being such noble de fenders of the cause of freedom, what on earth have the working men of London, teste Mr. Gladstone, to complain of ? Mr. Crawford represents them, Elo does Alderman Lusk, and so do the whole con fraternity. That being so, why is everything to be turned upside down ? If r. Potter's sentiments are expressed in the House of Commons, if he and his working-men friends haie almost the whole re presentation of the metropolis to defend their in terests, and the interests which they consider e inimical to theirs have but one vote, they have quiet and voting power enough alreadt o them settle that point with their new hero, who we are glad to say, retains common sense i e on or in decline meeting them on Clerken w e e ca I Glad- Trafalgar-square.

He Potter that the leading go H ea o n w d ever, principles word o ft a h s at to their Reform Bill were scrupulous moderation in fi x ing the limits of their original design, and a care ful deference to every wish of the House of Corn- I mons in regard to methods of procedure. We have heard this before since the was rejected,b'llb U t no one discovered th e moderation and deference I whilst the bill lived, and no one who watched the conduct of Mr. Gladstone then will believe in them now. On the contrary, it was the vices directly opposed to these virtues, for which the Minister has the audacity to take credit, that provoked the successful opposition to the bill, and overthrew the Government. However, Mr. Gladstone was writing to people who take their accounts of the procedure of the late Government from Us organs, and we have no doubt the members THE " GUARDIAN" ON A NEW GOVERNMENT.-- t is well that the Queen accepted the resignation of Lord Russell ; it was quite time that the Go vernment of 1859 ceased to exist. In reality it ought to have ended with Lord Palmerston's death. It had no locus standi except the prestige of his personal popularity. It was founded on deliberate treachery and deceit ; in the wilful jockeying of the Great Liberal Party. It took office on the sham pretence of bringing in a better Reform Bill than Lord Derby's. People believed and trusted the as sertion, but their eyes were soon opened. In 1860 the Liberal Reform Bill was burked and abandoned, and from then until after Lord Palmerston's death the name of Reform was unheard. It was some thing like the forlorn lover in the pathetic and silly ballad of " Alice Grey." From 1860 to 1866, mem bers of Lord Palmerston's Government might, in reference to Reform, have sung a la Alice Grey:— Oh no we never mention it, Its name is never heard ; Our lips are now forbid to speak That once familiar word. But the Premier died, the lips became unclosed, ! and Reform was heard of once more. But a l as that when Lord Russell lost his leader, he should have gone to Mr. Bright for counsel and advice, and still more is he to be blamed for acting on the advice given. For the notion of bringing forward a Franchise Bill only, and leaving a new Parliament, sent by new and ultra electors, to redistribute the seats, was a trick worthy only of the card sharpers and thimble-riggers who infest the roads near country races. No wonder that the House of Com mons took offence ; no wonder that the members of the Liberal side the house opposed their own Mi nistry, and finally turned them out. They are gone: and we cannot say of them as was said of Charles 1., " that nothing he did in life so became him as the leaving of it." Lord Russell, on Tues day night, after he had thrown up his office, in dulged in a petulent burst of bad temper, and charged the Conservative party with obstructing the Reform Bill ; when he knew full well that Mr. Disraeli had offered to help the Government through with the bill, and that the obstructions had come from his own party—from Earl Grosvenor, Captain Hayter, Lord Dunkellin, and others, with whom the Conservatives have nothing to do. We re capitulate this, because it is necessary to be re membered that the Conservative party are not responsible for the present position of affairs. They would have preferred seeing the Reform question settled before they took office, because it could them be no longer used as a party cry against them. But how could they have possibly settled it this year? The franchise portion alone would not have been allowed to pass. The House of Commons and the Ministry had settled that. Then the re-distribution scheme was so faulty, so imperfect, that it never could have passed —a fresh bill altogether was required. There fore there was no other resource but to let Reform, `for this session, go by the board. And the great majority of thinking people in this country would ' be glad enough if it went overboard altogether, and nothing more was seen or heard of it in the present century. We gladly take leave of it for awhile. Lord Derby succeeds to office in troublous times, with war abroad. WCtrust it may bo ewerhocl-f.-..,... lis ; but already the cry is raised that the Tories are about to plunge the country into war. There is something shamefully dishonest in the way in which the Morning Star and Daily Telegraph try to raise an outcry against Lord Derby and his party, regardless alike of common truth or common honesty. Lord Derby has no more wish to plunge this country into war than has Lord Russell, and is far less likely to do so. For these reasons, that he does not write either indiscreet or impertinent let ters—Lord Russell writes both ; and Lord Derby he neither meddles nor muddles,whereas Lord Rus sell does both. The way in which an outcry has been groundlessly raised against Lord Malmesbury as a Foreign Secretary is proof of the shocking manner in which some of the organs of the Liberal press abuse the liberty the press enjoys in England. They have over and over again said of late that England would not be safe from war with Lord Malmesbury at the Foreign Office. Yet what were the experiences of Lord Malmesbury's policy in 1859 ? It was a wise, discriminating, peace-pre serving policy. Full testimony to its worth was borne by Lord Palmerston, than whom no man ever had greater experience as a Foreign Minister, and who was therefore an authority ; and what did he state in 1859 ? Directly he regained office (after his organs had been abusing Lord Malmesbury in cessantly) he said " in our foreign policy we shall follow exactly the footsteps of our predecessors," and from then until after Lord Palmerston's death, the vile slanders, so injurious to Lord Malmesbury 's reputation, were hushed. But now that the veteran is in his grave, they are again revived ; and Lord Russell does not disown them or deny them. His organs repeat them day after day : he knows they are false, but they serve the purposes of his party. They help to make a difficulty in Lord Derby's distribution of the chief offices of the State. The Intended Pefoim Demonstration in Hyde Park. Last evening a special meeting of the Reform League was held at their committee-rooms, Adelphi terrace, to consider the propriety of holding another great public demonstration in London, and inviting the provincial friends of reform to take part in it. Mr. Edward Beales, president. the League, occu pied the chair. Mf. LUCRAFT proposed a resolution to the effect that a great national demonstration in favour of invited to d emonstration. He reform be held in Hyde-park on Monday after noo, July 23, at six o'clock, and that the various branches of the Reform League and other reform general feeling among on Mon stakasaisdoeciabp e ti a o rt n s found throughouttheafter p rtohpe t o h sged e re c a o dt u e n ram trf entin g that there t f h a e v r o e ur w o as f haolding th ano er great meet ing in London, and he thought that a day on which something important was goin g on in Parliament would be best for the occasion. If the meeting rdeafyorm were called early , t h e provincial reformers could come in from the country, and the railway com panies would probably run trains to take them home the same night. If that were done, he felt certain that from 50 , 000 to 100,000 persons would assemble in Hyde Park. (Hear, hear.) The people were up and stirring throughout the wanted-some standard to rally round. Mr. ODGERS seconded the resolution. Mr. DAVIS said with regard to the actual results of Monday's great meeting in Trafalgar-square, he went to Bow-street Police-station and saw the in spector, who, in reply to his inquiries, said that only one charge in connexion with the meeting had been taken there. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Lucraft's resolution was put and carried unanimously. Colonel DICKSON suggested that it would be well if meetings and bands of music were organised in Camberwell, Lambeth, and in the suburbs of Lou don generally on the day of the great meeting, which would bring additional thousands together. Mr. GUEDALLA moved, Mr. LUCRAFT seconded, and it was resolved, " That an appeal for pecuniary, aid to carry out the great demonstration be imme diately issued." The consideration of a letter suggesting the Crystal Palace as the scene of the proposed demon stration was postponed. The proceedings then terminated,
