OPENING OF THE STEAM-BASIN, AT PORTSNIOUTti, BY HER MAJESTY. Yesterday the new basin at Portsmouth, constructed by Mr. Peter Rolt for the Admiralty, to be appropriated for fitting the steam-vessels of her Majesty's navy in every respect for sea-service, before they,are turned out into the harbour, was opened by the entrance of her most gracious Majesty the Queen, in the royal yacht tender Fairy, when, by the royal command, Colonel Irvine, C.B. chief director of e n g ineer and architectural works, placed the last stone in position, in her Majesty's presence. During the past week we have noticed the extensive preparations which were made at Portsmouth for the consummation of this great work, and, to render the event of completing such a vast and useful acquisition to our maritime strength one of striking effect we may now remark that nothing could exceed the grandeur of the whole affair. It was one of most absorbing interest. The whole neighbourhood . was assem bled. It was a general holiday for the populace, and the mightiest arsenal in the world was peopled by tens of thousands of the most loyal subjects on earth, and who testified their loyalty, too, in a manner worthy of the appreciation with which her Majesty evidently regarded it. All bu s i ness, b y commo n consent, in the neighbourhood, was suspended, and the local function aries vied with the G overnment aut h o rities in producing one of the most ma gn ifi cent spectac l e s it has ever been our opportunity and our privilege to witness. At an early hour hundreds upon hundreds of persons came pouring into the towns from the South-Western and South Coast lines of railway ; and a dense, inter minable stream of spectators were for hours before the appearance of the royal yacht wending their way to the works, whilst afloat the harbour WdS literally covered with boats of all kinds, crammed with most respectably attired persons, and as the time drew near for the ap proach of her Majesty almost every avenue in the dock yard leading to the basin was completely closed. But although there was a great deaf of crowding there was no confusion; good hum our , respect f u l f ee ling, and the best disposition prevailed. E very b o d y a pp e ared determined to please and be ple ase d, an d an a l most ... health ful, sound, and hearty nat i ona l sp i r it c haracterised the conduct of the vast ass em bl age t h rou ghout the day. We stated yesterday that Lord Auckland bad arrived at Portsmouth, and that Admiral Dundas, C. 8., M.P., the Senior Naval Lord of the Admiralty, would leave .own that morning. The Gallant Officer arrived at Gosport by the earliest train from London, and joined Lora Auckland at the official residence of the Com mander-ineChief, Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, immediately afterwards. The ships at Spithead and in the harbour attired themselves in holiday colours at eig ht o'clock, and, together with th e b atteries, fired the first royal salute at twelve o'clock, in hollow: of the birthday of the Princess Helena. Shortly alter_ another royal salute announced the arrival in the harbour of the Fairy, with her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent on board en route to Froguaore by the Soutli-Western Railway; and the C o mmander.in.chief proceeded on board to pay hi s respects, and, with other officers, attended her Royal Highness to the railway carriage at the Clarence-yard, Gosport. The Gallant Admiral then returned, and with the Earl of Auckland and Admiral Dundas pro dAl in the Fairy to Osborne, the Admiralty flag flying at the mainmast head. In the meanwhile the special train, had arrived at the Clarence-yard, Gosport, from London, and at half-past one, in the Admiralty, the C o mmander-in-Chief 's, and i o. ; . l h:r b b ro ar vi g n es h , ( h )i i i s a G nd ra b ce lou th s : o Duke. ver,l of s field-marshal's Wellington, tdm a ro a u attired ni.

The Duke of Wellington, Lord and Lady Ellesmere, L , ord H a ddineton Captain Berkeley, Lord John Hay, Sze., then proceeded to the Port Ad miral's residence, and others to the residence of the Ad miral Superintenden t, and partook of luncheon. It was now approaching the time for expecting the Queen, and accordingly, atter the Duke and the Lords of the Admiralty had visited the basin, they repaired to the King's Stairs to wait the arrival, off there, of the Fairy. The grand booth, form in g a sort of amphitheatre around the yet unfit sii lied corner of the sea-wall, and where the ceremony of laying the last stone was to take place, was by this time pretty well filled, the other booths ranging along the pier-wall and at the sides of the basin had been crammed as full as they could possibly be, for a long time previously. The faint report of a gun to seaward, at three o'clock, turned every eye that was in a Position to command a view in that direction, towards Spithead, and the motions of the parties so situated were anxiously watched by those in the booths , for an indicatio n of the where ahcaits of the Fairy. The report of another gun, fol lowed by others in rapid succession, intimated the passing of the Royal tender through Spithead. This was the Royal salute, fired by the following ships at anchor there : St. Vincent, 120 guns, 820 men, 2,612 tons, Captain S. C. Daures. Prince R egent, 90 guns, 820 me n, '2,613 tons, Captain W.

The fir s t i s t h e fl ag -sh i p o f R ear -Admiral Sir Charles Napier, and the last is one of the advanced quite r ead y for sea, but w ith on l y a small complement. Th e firing of the guns, and th e c h eer i ng of the men as t h e y manned the yards, had hardly ceased when the platform battery and other batterie s too k up the royal salute, and the people who c row d e d the wharfs there likewise continued the marked with salutes from the guns and the o f A o l d r t cheering, and so without intermission every inch of pro gress which the Fairy made in coining into harbour was those who lined the shores or manned the yards of the men-of-war. the • • and decks f the yachts and rigging o• merchantmen, or the swarming squadrons of small boats. momentarythree-decker salutes t.r o p antuhts the Victor y , ev sea-g oi ngi. tsucceeded,or flag-sh ip ships s ,o e !gala fittingat hi people , enpo opbrl thu n deredharbour, trb fr o o u m r the Howe, Bellerophon and Bastin ss and also from the ordinary th s e te fl am ag g o u f ard th . admi ral;b from the Illustrious , depot-ship of the ordinary, the Excellent r h a e l s e Superintendent; ve sxcellent gunnery. ship; and from the Blenheim, their yards, and cheering vociferously; as did also the crews of the Scourge, steam-sloop, and other vessels in commission in the harbour. sselsinaniling The ships at Spithead formed n ship, p Rear -Admiral r a A h nf no mean force to give a hearty wel come to her Majes ty , to afford to the tens of thousa n d s o f visitors to and the port our naval stren g th at t h e present mom en to us a specimen of crisis. The Fairy had now arrived off the Ki ng' s Stairs at the dockyard, and th e r e b roug h t up to receiv e Duke of Wellington, th e M arquis of Ang l esey, ;seyan boartlir C. Wood, the Hon. C a pt a i n Berkeley, Lord e Joi;n ay Captain Milne, the Hon. W. Cowper Mr . War d, Captain Hamilton and Captain Eden, ' who, dressed in full uni form, the civil as well as the military officers of the Ad miralty, joined the Earl of Auckland, Admiral Dundas, and Sir Charles Ogle, who had p rocee d ed to Osborne in the Fairy, to attend upon her Majesty. . In a few minutes she was again moving slowly to wards the mouth of the basin ; and at 3 40 the Fairy , with the Royal standard at the ma i n , t h e Admiralty flag at the fore, and the Union Jack at the mizen-mast, lay across the mouth of the steam-basin. It is impos sible to do justice to the magnificent coup d'ceit in the harbour and in the basin which now presented itself. ' It was transcendently beautiful. Nothing could ex ceed the fineness of the weather ; the sun shone in unsurpassing brilliancy, and the only ripple on the water, which reflected the blue heavens and the bright sparkling sunbeams, was caused by the dipping of a thousand oars or the revolutions of the screw-propeller of the Royal yacht. At this moment at least a hundred thousand eves must have been turned on the little craft which proudly bore a freight so precious to our country; and the loud, long, enthusiastic shout of joy almost drowned the reverberation of the cannon from the saluting battery at the basin pier head, which proclaimed the arrival of the Queen. In the harbour, the stately three-deckers and the other powerful lineeof•battle ships, decked with their various coloured flags, their gallant crews stretched out upon the yards, the multitude of sailing and rowing craft of all descriptions, presented a most animated and glorious picture of our national characteristics and our national pursuits, and the eye could embrace at aglance the inherent, but now happily dormant strength of our beloved country. There was the might and there was the majesty of England, and there was seen with timbers still sound, and colours still flaunting, the ship which beyond all others was calcu lated to awaken the most glorious recollections of our perils and our triumphs, in "bearing our dreaded banner round the globe," the " Victory" always, whether she bore the flag of a Jervis or a Nelson. But if the harbour presented a picture of magnificence, and a gratifying spectacle at this moment, the view of the basin from the royal yacht must have afforded to her Majesty the moat intense pleasure. The clear area of seven acres of water which the basin contained, was bounded only by loyal servants and devoted subjects. The margin all around was lined with the Royal Dock yard Battalions under their respective commanders, the Royal Marine Artillery, and troops of the line. On the left, or outer seawall of the basin leading in, the guard of honour, composed of the Ist or Grenadier company of Dockyard Infantry, was posted, under the command of Mr. Vintner (Major), the store receiver, and at their back an immense booth ranging the whole length of the wall, 560 feet, was erected tier above tier, and filled with an immense company, who were fortu nate enough to procure tickets. This led down to the stairs, or the north inlet to the basin. Here was the principal booth, as it was the corner stone of the pier, at this inlet, that was required to be laid to complete the coping of the whole work. In this booth, down the east wall, 597 feet in length, the Royal Marine Artillery, commanded by Colonel Gibson, were sta tioned, and from thence the guard was formed by the men of the dockyard boat brigade. Booths were also fitted on this wall in tiers, one above the oteser, and several detached places were also converted into seats for spectators. At the south inlet, and dens the southern boundary wall, a detachment of the 9th Regiment, under Major Barton, was stationed ; and here, too, were large booths erected between the building s, run ning up the western, or the longest side, 950 feet in length ; a detachment of the 17th laced the basic, and from thence the infantry battalion under Mr. Finch= (Lieutenant-Colonel), the master ship wright, continued the guard up to the entrance on the right, at the front of e hich was a saluting battery under the command of Mr. Bellamy (Major), assistant-master attendant. Ranging with this western side are the capacious storehouses, in course of erection; and here also every available bit of space which the broad and lofty doorways and window places afforded was converted into booths. And, in addition to the booths, filled to repletion, the half-finished floors and the roof of this building were tenanted by large groups ; and the wharves and works of the coffer-dam, and the roofs of the booths themselves, were crowded by ven turous persons. There were no interstices visible—they were all filled with spectators, and there was scarcely a portion of a building visible which was not decorated by flags or evergreens. At short distances from each other ensigns waved from lofty poles all round the basin, and at the principal booth there was a flag -staff erected on which to hoist the Royal standard on the landing of the Queen. This will give only the faintest idea of the grand panorama which was presented to her Majesty's v i e w, when as the Fairy passed through two lines of 6-gun boats on each side, manned by the boat brigade, under Mr. Davis (Lieutenant-Colonel), the Master-Attendant of the Clarence 3 ard, she rounded the point, and glided most gracefully within the scope of the basin, and was received by the National Anthem from no less than eight bands of musicians, at various stations, and a simultaneous burst of the most enthusi astic cheers that ever greeted royal ears. Two gigs be longing to the Royal yacht, one commanded by Lieut. Bedford, and the other by Lieut. Vansittart, piloted the Fairy, and on she came no i se l ess l y displacing but scarcely disturbing the pellucid waters which' bore her fair form with an elasticity which would almost induce the impression that the air had as much to do With the flotation as the lower element. Again, again, and again burst forth the loudest cheers from manly and loyal hearts as she moved along close by the seawall, guided by no inexperienced hand, and b o eying on the moment, as if by instinct, the will of her august Sovereign, as expressed through her noble cap tain, Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence. Sweeping round the curve, as she came opposite to the principal booth the Fairy remained for a moment inanimate, and from this booth burst forth once more the welcome of the numerous assembly of noble ladies and gentlemen who fermed the elite of the company. At this place the most excellent arrangements were made to receive her Ma jesty, and the greatest facilities were afforded for view ing the interesting operations of finishing the basin. The stairs leading up from the basin were railed and carpeted, and covered with evergreens and decorated with flags. The coping of the wall was also carpeted, and led to a raised platform, in front of which was the last atone, ready for laying, and suspended from a crane. On this platform, which was covered with green and scarlet carpeting, was placed an elegant carved state chair of the Elizabethan style, manufactured ex pressly for the use of her Majesty on the occasion by Messrs. E. and E. Emanuel, of Portsmouth, of Royal George oak, and covered with rich green damask; and on a table by the side a plan of the basin on a large scale was placed. On the left of this chair the principal seats were ranged, and in front, on th'e other side of the stone, accommodation was pro. vided for Mr. Owen, the mayor of Portsmouth, and the aldermen, town-councillors, and officers of the corpora tion. Around and about the platform were here assem bled the Earl of Haddington, the Earl and Countess of Ellesmere and Lady Egerton, Lord Clarence Paget, Viscount Ingeetre, M.P., C. 8., Captain Cospatrick B. Hamilton, Rear-Admiral Sir T. Cochrane, K.C.B Sir C. Freemantle, Bart., the Hon. Captain Boyle, Major-General Wernyss, Captain Ellice and Miss El lice, Captain Sir E. Parry and famil y, Captain B. J, Sullivan, Captain Rodney Mundy, Mr. Haig (the Ad miral's secretary) and family, Messrs. Ward and the Misses Ward, Misses Woolley, Graves, B er k eley, On the stone was laid a massive, chaste silver trowel, manufactured by Emanuel!, goldsmiths to the Queen, the handle of which was supported by t wo frosted dolphins in basso relieve, and bearing the following inscription on one side—" This trowel eas used by —, on the occasion of laying the last stone and opening the new steam basin at her Majesty' s Dockyard, Portsmouth, 25th day of May, 1847;" end on the other a plan of the basin. The usual model imple ments of masonry, Sec., used on such occasions, were also laid on the stone; and the stone itself, which weighed a bout 2 tons 3 1 covered the following inscrip tionr on a stone beneath : This last stone was laid by Colonel Irvine, C. 8., in the presence of her Majesty, a n d by her Majesty's command, On the 25th May, 1848, Right Hon. the Earl o f Auckland First Lord of th e Admiralty. Dundss, Berkeley Lords of the Admiralty. Milne, Cowper. 11. G. Ward, First Secretary. J. W. B. Hamilton, Second Secretary. Passing this spot, the Fairy proceeded slowly round the basin, followed by a squadron of barges, with distin guishing pennants, in two divisions, Sir Charles Napier leading in his own barge, and followed by the barges of the Captains Dundas, Martin, Yates, Chads, Eden, Baynes, Morgan, Austin, Dacres, in order, according to seniority. Passing up the entire length of the west side, the Fairy stopped at each crowded avenue of the new store-houses for her Majesty to receive the congratula tions of the spectators; and then rounding again, at the entrance inside, came slowly down to the iandzng stairs. At the principal booth, the little vessel having run alongside, the Queen was received by Admiral Prescott and Lord Frederick Fitzclarence, and was conducted up the steps to the chair on the state platform by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, the lords and ladies in waiting, the Duke of Wellington, the Earl of Auckland, and the Board of Admiralty following and ranging themselves behind her Majesty, when the Royal standard was hoisted on the spot. Cheers again resounded on all sides, which her Majesty acknowledged by repeatedly bowing. The corporation, headed by the Mayor, Mr. Ellis Oven, had then the'honour of presenting the addresses of the corporation to the Queen and Prince Albert, and was graciously received on their behalf, but her Ma jesty intimated her desire that they should not be read. They were as follows: " TO THF. QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " Most Gracious Sovereign, " May it please your Majesty, we, your Majesty's faithful subjects, the Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Portsmouth, humbly beg leave to assure your Majesty of our devoted loyalty and ardent attachment to your Majesty's person, family, and throne. " Yielding to none of your Majesty's subjects in de votion to your sacred person, in a zealous adherence to your Majesty's illustrious House, and in regard fur those great principles which have ever distinguished the House of Brunswick, we yet account it a special case for gra tulation that this ancient borough and great naval ar senal should be favoured with this visit from oar Most Gracious Sovereign, accompanied by her beloved Con sort, and him who is—God grant for some yet far dis tant day—the hope of England; and that too upon an occasion when all our sympathies, as a naval people , are absorb e d i n th e . your Majesty ' s magnitude of' the interest which it is gracious purpose to consolidate and strengthen. We would humbly hope that if foreign aggression should again disturb the peace of the British empire, this arsenal m the blessing of t h e God may send forth such fleets as, by of battles, may vindicate their ancient fame, and ever remain the wooden walls of your Majesty's throne, impre gnable to every e n em y. •• With these desire s crown, we wo u ld combine the glory of y our M a j es ty's our ardent wishe s for the peace and pro s p er i ty of your iness o f th Majesty's reign, and the greatness and happ s way." nation committed to your "TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS FRANCIS ALBERT AUGUSTUS CHARLES EMANUEL, DUKE OF SAXE, PRINCE Or SAXE COBURG AND GOTHA. May it please your Royal Highness, " We, the Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Port.mouth, beg leave to approach your Royal Highness with the assurance of our affectionate devotion to our Most Gracious Sovereign, and our un feigned attachment to your Royal Highness. " We rejoice that this ancient borough should be favoured by the present ♦isit of our Most Gracious Sovereign and your Royal Highness; and we trust that the occasion to which we are indebted for this distin guished honour may be the means of increasing the naval strength and augmenting the greatness of this empire. " We recognise with much gratification the interest which your Royal Highness has ever evinced in the progress of great national undertakings, and in the en couragement of those institutions which tend so much to advance the intelligence and happiness of her Ma jesty's subjects. " We pray that your Royal Highness may long be spared with our Most Gracious Queen, in the full epjoy ment of every blessing, that her throne may be undis turbed, her empire prosperous, her and your happiness unbroken." The Earl of Auckland then, by request of her Majesty, introduced Captain James, RE., the director of works, and her Majesty having proceeded to the table, Captain James had the honour of explaining to her Majesty the particulars of the basin, as shown in the plan; and through Colonel Irvine, C. 8., the director-general of works, Mr. Peter halt presented to her Majesty an elegantly bound statement of details of the great work. Preparations were then commenced for fixing the stone, during which time the Queen walked across the platform to Lady Frederick Fitzclarence and honoured her Ladyship with some marked compliments. Her ntjesty also most affably recognised the Countess of it:dewier° and other ladies of the brilliant circle wi surrounded the, Royal presence. Prince Albert, in the mecnwhile, was eng...fed in conversation with the Duke Wellington and L ,rd Au c kl an d. _ . . _ Mr. Holt end his superititeialent engineer, Mr. Sinith, having comp'• ted the terraneruents for lowering the stone into its place, her Majesty, after aldressiEg a few words to Lord Auckland, intimated her commat,ds to Colonel Irvine, !hat ht' should lay the stone, which that gallant officer then perfurgued, and the work was con summated—the hand of the Royal Marines at the mo ment sttiking up t• Rule Britannia." The Queen, then, atter bowing again to the assembly, left the platfirm and was conducted by the Prince to the Fairy ; and the Duke of Wellington, tne Marquis of Anglesey, and Lord Auckland, hating taken leave of her Majesty, the Fairy again steamed down to the end of the basin, where the Queen received again the thrice repeated cheers of the assembly, and bowed the royal acknowledgments, and smiled the royal satisfaction. The yacht then steered ihrou . gh the middle of the basin into the harbour, and at lull speed proceeded to Osborne, receiving as she passed the salutes of the ships and the cheers of the men on the yards, and the people who lined the shores on each side. The Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal and Princess Alice, accompanied her Majesty in the Fairy, but did not land. On the deck of the yacht the Royal children ex cited great admiration, which repeatedly brought forth from the spectators enthusiastic cheering. Her Majesty wore a white muslin dress with flounces, a lace shawl lined with maize, and a white chip boniest and white feather. The Princess Royal and Princess Alice were entirely dressed in white, with chip bonnets ; aad the Prince of Wales wore a blue cloth jacket em broidered with silver, white trousers and white cap. Prince Albert was attired in a field marshal's uniform, and wore the star of the Order of the Bath. Mr. bolt especially, and Mr. Smith, the superintending engineer of this great work, received at all hands, official and private, the warmest congratulations, which were also extended tee Captain James, R.E., Mr. Wood, the clerk of the works, 8:e. Last evening no less than 2,186 men of the dockyard dined together, at the new boat-house, to celebrate the day's proceedings, and Mr. Bolt provided dinner in the new store-houses for 1,050 of his own workmen, who had been engaged in the construction of the basin. In justice to the Admiral Superintendent, we must re mark that the entire arrangements of the day could not have ben better. We cannot forbear recording the danger to which her Majesty was exposed through the ardour of one of her subjects—faithful, we dare say, as the best of them. It so happened that as the Queen stood in the booth, one of the officers near her gave some order or other to a police man, who immediately started off to execute it, with so much speed, and so little caution, that he was within an ace of overturning the royal person, or at least of most seriously disturbing its equilibrium. lie proceeded on his mission in happy ignorance of his imminent escape from lese Majeste The Queen did not appear to take any notice of it. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EPSOM RACES.—THURSDAY. The entrebi for the Grand Stand Handicap fell very far short of what might have been expected from the liberal bonus added to it; as a matter of course the race excited very little interest. Wanting, however, as it confessedly Was, in importance, the card promised an abundance of sport—three single dashes, as brother Jonathan would call them, and heats ad nauseu'n— were enough to satisfy a glutton, but too Peckham-like to be agreeable to any real lover of racing. It is much to be regretted that such pettifogging work should be suffered, at a meet i ng i n a ll ot h er respects so we ll con ducted; heats are notoriously premiums for trickery and fraud, and the sooner the steward can be prevailed on to abolish them, the better. It is superfluous to add that they spun out the racing to an unreasonably late hour, and that one half of the visitors left the course before they were brought to a close. A list of the fashionables on the Downs yesterday is out of the question; in place of it we, will supply an omission in our last, by giving a selection of the most distinguished personages present on the Derby day:— Duke of Bedford, Duke of Richmond, Duke of Mon trose, Marquis of Exeter, Marquis of Downshire, Mar quis of Granby, Earl and Countess of Chesterfied, Earl. 4 March, Earl of Stradbroke, Earl of Glasgow, Earl of Uxbrid ge' Earl of Strathmore, Earl of Euston , E arl Jursey, Earl of Granville, Earl of Suffield.

CHRONICLE—It is with deep concern. that we this morning record the decision of the House of Lerda on the Jewish Disabilities Bill. The great principle of civil and religious liberty is, indeed, too firmly rooted in the con victions, the feelings, and the conscience of the community to receive more than a very temporary c h ec k f rom the un toward resuli of last night's debate; but we sincerely de plore an occurrence which place s th e U pper House at issue with public opinion on a question profoundly interesting to the country, and which must have the effect of opening an exciting political controversy. Wi thout feeling the slightest inclination to criticise harshly a vote which, we doubt nut, expresses the conscientious o pi n i on of the ma jority of their Lordships' House, we must lament so marked a contradiction between the aristocratic branch of the Legislature, and what we deem the demands of social and political right. At the hour at which we w r it e we are un able to allude, even in the briefest way, to th e ' pract i cal questions which this decision of their Lordships has opened. We are not aware what may be the cours e w hi c h Baron Rothschild may consider it advisable to adopt with Teference to his present position in relation to the House of Comm ons and the electors of the city of London ; nor would we hastily pronounce on the dwells of a matter which may be con sidered from more than one point of view. We will only say in general, that we feel a most cheerful confidence in the eventual, and not remote, solution 01 the question which the vote of last night has so unfortunately left unsettled. The mind and heart of this country are fully set on the d e fi n i t i ve recognition of the great Christian principle of entire r e li g i ous liberty ; the first constituency of the Empire is qui te i n earnest about vindicating the right of free electoral choice; and we do not believe that this year 1848 will witness so portentous a novelty in English history as the failure of popular efforts in a righteous, social, and political enterprise. POST.—In the name of our common Christianity we congratulate the country on the noble conduct of the House of Lords. Their Lordships last night decided, by a majority of thirty- five, that this odious Bill should not be read a second time. Let us hope that the measure is new lost for ever. The English people, speaking through their natural representatives, the Peers of England, have once more de clared against it. Why, then, vex the nation with further ' attempts? They must be unsueceosful, and nobody knows this better than her Majesty's Ministers and their ally Sir Robert Peel. HERALD.--Thank God we have a House of Lords! At two o'clock this morning the Ministerial measure was de-. feated, and Christianity vindicated, by a majority of thirty-- five—a majority both of Peers present and of proxies. The speakers in support of the Bill were the Marquis of Lans downe, Lord Canning, the Duke of Argyll, the Bishop of St. David's, the Earl of Yarborough, the Earl of Ellesmere, and Lord Brougham. The Peers who spoke in opposition to the measure were the Earl Of Ellenborougb, the Duke of Cambridge, the Archbishop a Canterbury, the Earl of Winchilsea, the Bishop of Oxford, the Earl of Eglinton, the Earl of Harrowby, the Earl of Desert, and Lord Stanley,.

NATIONAL TEMPERANCE SOCIETT:—The sixth annual meeting of this society was held at Exeter Hall last night—W. Cash, Esq., in the chair—when the body of the hall and the platform were well filled with friends and ad vo,:ates of the teetotal cause. The report ( which was read and adopted) gave a satisfactory account of the steady, if not rapid, progress of temperance principles generally, and particularly among seamen, factory operatives, and in our public schools for juveniles, towards indoctrinating whom with teetotalism the society's efforts during the past year had been more especially and successfully directed. The society's finances are in a favourable condition. Several eloquent and forcible addresses were delivered, and warmly applauded, in the course of the evening.
