Society for the Improvement of the Condit i o n of the Labe/W -il-leases having met with entire success in three differe nt efforts to to •- ", ds better dwellings for the labouring poor, is n ew desirous of la n al "einil a new attempt, of, it may be hoped, a still more inapor t characte r• . pas t operations have been as follows '"• rule of cottages, on a site wkere oottagee only were minds ,* • ILealled Model Buildings, in Bagnigge-wells.

The Model Lodging-house, for single men, built expressly for to' Society , in George-street, St. G ilee's. In this house 104 single ~_s6 are provided with separate sleeping apartments, and every other "irable accommodation, at the charge of 4d. per night. 431 these est a bli s h men t s are full, the rents are regularly paid , and 4, Int:Rates are very thankful for the advantages they receive. The i ll •salber of persons now tenanting the Society's houses is 320, w h ile o.,, Uri• us parts of the country their allotment tenants are $56. "'well three undertakings, therefore, while they return a fair and •,,•` 4 .ltUtte rental for the capital laid out, are producing important be riti to the working classes, and are compelling improvement in I,tbsl-houses generally. be nefit there is a very numerous aid important class, for whose be ;"t great efforts ought to be made. The mechanics and other la ..„ltsrs, occupied in the heart of the metropolis, aud leaving wives izz fat:lilies, who are compelled to dwell in localities where employ is to be found, surely demand some consideration. The Committee desire forthwith to make an earnest attempt to t", t the wants of this interesting and important class of persons. I,,, e ,Y„at present have in view two sites , in the very centre of the me either of which would admirably answer the purpoee. I. 4 usy are endeavoiritig te gain possession of one of them, but it will booessary, in order to their effecting this object in a proper and indolent manner, that they should first raise a sum of 5,0001. or ,:rto which will obviously be required to erect a n y buildin g of such o - 1 , - ,„ • 7 ; nt as to to serve as a model for future undo:takings. Hence a appeal must be made, since the whole of the Sociecy's funds 3' s been exhausted in the completion of the three works above inn `usrateko The Committee believe that with the Christian public of this coun t no f urt h er plea need b e use d th an th a t of the duty and impor o",„.es of benefiting the poor, especially with respect to their d wellin g s. •z_oir it cannot be out of place to remark, that while measures for the i mprovement of the health of the metropolis are urged on every side, t here can b e no measure so e ffectual for this purpose as that of ex- Changing the wretched abodes, into which the poor are now too often V i wdsd, for well-planned, well-drained, and properly ventilated ha , t ations. The Committee believe that this can be done even at a tower rats of charge for rent than that which the labourer is now often forced to pay, and they entreat the affluent and the charitable 0 eve them the means of still f u rther demonstrating this important by actual experiment. It cannot be too often repeated. that _ W hile our poor art f orce d, as at present, to crowd together, all ages I thd sexes in th e same s l ee pi ng a partment, the preservation of either 4 0.4.1 th or morals is rendered all but an impossibility.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, is order that it may be really tte cause of mutual happiness. Ceuld the veil, which covers tte origin of donsestie wretchedness, be raised, and its trio searee is every iastaatee disclosed, in how many could jibe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the ant, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and ef greater or lees injury to the oonstitutiosal aid vital powers. The particular excesses, mi ,he tcatare and emisequenco of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are prodietive of greater severity of 'gamy te the lateen frame, titti any ether to which It is subject. This work contains as aecarate aid complete aeconnt of the Anatomy' and Pluelology of the Reprodistivo Organs, aid of their relative conditions ia health aid disease. It deservedly reenires the closest atteatioa aid study, for what sahject can be of more Importaice than the preservation •f the health, and of the physical capabilities of which every raan 'should be possessed. It nifertunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence aid vicious habits, whether aoquired in early life or Cress the follies of advanced age, while suturing from their invariable censequexces, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread JO frefinelltlY, but erroneously eatertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him aid prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting this, be forgets that accurate discrimination i a ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably eharacterise the iatelligeat and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by his posse , sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect is his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended.

Mobs of people are collected at every street end, and bands of music, accompanied by large numbers of workmen carrying banners, are parading the principal streets. Both parties have music and banners, and are equally excited, and the women appear as active in shouting as the men.

Ditto Sheffield and Lincolnshire — The following is the address of the jury to the Lord Chief Baron, recommending this prisoner to mercy : " May it. please your Lordship, " We, the undersigned, ou whom devolved the painful duty of recording that verdict which has consigned the unfortunate woman, Annette Meyers, to forfeit her life to the offended laws of our country, venture to hope that your Lordship will excuse this last and purely spontaneous appeal which we feel bound to mike on her behalf. " We trust your Lordship will exonerate us from any thing like presumption if in this we"--ahould be going beyond our duty ; but before we leave this Court, and while the unhappy object of our appeal is still within the reach of mercy, we venture to hope that your Lord ship will bear with us while we state the reasons which induce us to reiterate our recommendation to mercy of the unfortunate woman, Annette Meyers, now under sentence of death. The Cotton market at Li►erpool yesterday was very dull. Sales 3,000 bales, with a decided tendency down wards. Railway Shares continued lull, and prices were again lower. The new packet-ship London, Ctptain F. 11. Hebard, has arrived off Portsmouth from N'w York, in ciehteen days, having sailed on the 20th of February. This is her first voyage. She is 1,200 tons burden. The infer 'nation of this arrival was receivel at the North and South American Coffee-house curly this morning. It is said she has a fair freight and some specie ou merchants' account. Perhaps the most important feature in the intelligence that has been received from the ccntinent this morning is the stated resignation of Prince Metternich, the old, the talented, and the ever wary diplomatist of Austria, who has always walked in the highest path of honour and of fame. And what is the reason of such a determination in tsveur of liberty ? He has discovered that the iron rule of his Emperor will not now satisfy Lombardy. This resignation, and under such anomalous circum stances as those alleged, must work wonders in every portion of the civilised globe, where reluctant Em perors, or heads of Government, are too prone to reject the claims of their people for rightful and for equitable reforms, and for concessions in favour of the extension of liberality. There has not been any news of importance received from the colonies this morning. The accounts received from Paris this morning give rise of Five per Cent. in the French Rentes. Confidence had very considerably increased. In our Consol Market there has been an improvement, in the gross. from 804 to 81; i . The present value for the Account is 814 Consuls for money have rallied from 804 to 811, though now they are a little lower. Exchequer-bills have gone back to 255. prerniam. Bank and East India Stuck is now shut, preparatory to the payment of the dividends. In the Foreign Market the only quotations have been in the Brazilian Five per Cents. at 77 and 7E. Tho Portuguese Four per Cents. have fluctuated from 15 to 16 fur the account; the Portuguese Loans ranged from 15 to 16 ; the Spanish Five per Cents. from 114 to 12; the Three per Cents. from 221 to 23i.

We cannot but think, from the whole of the conduct of the prisoner towards the deceased, as it appeared from the evidence, that it was only when she found herself the subject of that deli berate cruelty and determined baseness which drove her to a state of almost madness, that the guilty object of her abused confidence received at her hands the one fatal and only act which partook of the nature of revenge. " W e trust that your Lordship will not understand us as attempting in any degree to palliate or excuse the in c'ulgence in such feelings of revenge, which must tend only to the subversion of the law, and to endanger the public safety; but we do hope that the law can in some way vindicate itself in a case like the present—a case almost without a parallel; and, while it spares the guilty primmer from the hands of the public executioner, can show its utter abhorrence of that general and systematic ruin perpetrated by a class of men upon persons in the situation of this unfortunate woman—men who are not only a disgrace to that body to which they belong, but also to humanity itself. " We conclude, imploring your Lordship's considera tion and intercession on behalf of the unfortunate pri soner, and trust that your Lordship will be able to see a way by which the laws of our country can be vindi cated, while the life of this guilty yet deeply injured wo man may be spared.

COVENT. GARDEN. The second season of the Royal Italian Opera a, Covent-Garden commenced last evening. During the recess the great evil of last season (the location of the seats in the second amphitheatre) has been removed. The absurd division into two amphitheatres has been done away with. The second amphitheatre, in which, from the back seats, it was impossible to catch a glimpse of the stage, has been joined to the old gallery, and the seats have been raised, so as to give to every occupant of a seat a view of the stage ; we have, in fact, a large commodious and comfortable gallery, instead of a small and comfortless gallery, and en amphitheatre deprived of a view of the stage. This is a great improvement, and is worthy of all praise. The orchestra has been increased in strength, and now numbers 86 performers-, the increase has principally taken place in the stringed instruments. The strength of the choruses has also been increased. The opera chosen for the opening was the Tancredi of Rossini, the first opera seria ever composed by the Maestro, and the opera which at once secured to him his fame and his position as the greatest of Italian composers. It was produced originally at the Theatre of the Fenici, in Venice ; and the morning after its productionßossini, to quote the words which Lord Byron, about the same time applied to him self, " awoke and found himself famous." The over tut and the air "Di Tanti Palpiti" have long become the common places of music, and although since the secessi m of Pasta from the stage, the opera has not been produced (save and except once for Madame Viardot, who made such an awful failure that we believe she never attempted to repeat the part), yet the music has always been popular in the drawing. room—every one who is at all fond of, or acquainted with, music, knows the opera almost by heart, and therefore every one is critical, which, perhaps, is one reason why modern performers have so seldom achieved a brilliant success in this opera. The following was the cast last evening:— Tancredi Mdlle. Alboni. Orbazzano „. ... Signor Polonini. Argirio ... Signor Luigi Mei. Amenaide Madame Persiani. The overture (who • does not know the overture to Tancredi?) was superbly given by the band, under the direction of Costa, who, on his appearance in the or chestra, was greeted with shouts of applause. Nothing could exceed the precision and accuracy of the orchestra which " went " as ono instrument. The overture, of course, was encored. The greatest interest had been excited by the announcement that Alboni was to appear in Tancredi, and the highest expectations had been formed. Her reception was most enthusiastic ; but she appeared evidently labouring under severe indisposition. Even in her acknowledgment of her reception there was an appearance of languor. Her voice was as pure, as rich, as flexible, as ever; and she sang the music beautifully, but there was an appearance of physical weakness about her that marred her best efforts. This was evident in her manner of giving her opening recitative, " Oh Petrie min care ed ingrate patria," and the " Tu die accendi," and "Di tanti palpiti," which immediately follow, were so tamely given that they failed to elicit an encore, a cir cumstance which perhaps has never before occurred in tie representation of this opera. She seemed to revive as the opera proceeded, and gave the duet, " Lasciami t'ascolto" with Madame Persiani, and the rondo, " Perchi turbar la calms," as she was wont to sing last season. She was in these pieces herself again, and there can be no doubt but that when she shall have re covered from the illness under which she is evidently suffering, and from the effect of the terror and alarm which she must have experienced during her residence in Paris for the last fortnight, she will be enabled to do full justice to the character, and her personation of Tancredi will add another laurel to her wreath. On this occasion, however, the triumph of the night was certainly Madame Persiani's, whose Amenaide was as fresh, as beautiful, and as in teresting as ever. Her voice seems to have regained its former freshness, and there was none of that defective intonation which has of late years occasionally marred some of her best efforts. Nothing could exceed the brilliancy of her fiorilure in the "E tuquando tornerai," and in the " Qucato ciel cho umile adoro," the exquisite preghiera in the second act, her efforts were rewarded with an unanimous encore. In the duet with Alboni, to whicb we have alluded above, Madame Persiani was beautiful exceedingly: their voices harmonised exquisitely, and, as performed last night, it was, perhaps, the gem of the opera. The Amenaide of Madame Persiani still con tinues to be what it always has been, the best on the stage. The chorusses were very fine, and the mounting of the piece was superb, whether as regards scenery, costumes, or appointments. Signor Polonini was a painstaking and careful Orbazzano, while Signor Luigi Mei, the new Argirio, was somewhat coarse and unpolished. The National Anthem was sung at the conclusion of the opera, the two first verses being given by Alboni and Persiani. A new ballet, entitled Follets, followed. The plot is incomprehensible, but the scenery is good and the music pretty. and Flora Fabbri, who is always a favourite with an English audi ence, dances some of her most beautiful pas, and is well supported by Mademoiselle Leopoldine Brussi, of Vienna, a charming girl and a graceful dancer, and therefore it succeeds, and in good sooth it deserves success.

(Present—Thomas Reynolds, Esq. (chairman), Samuel Ware, Esq., B. C. Pierie Seaman, Esq., Peter Dixon, Esq., J. H. Camellor, Esq., and Thos. Beckett, Esq.) The CHAIRMAN, on granting the applications for a renewal of the licenses, said that the magistrates were much satisfied with the manner the houses had been conducted in the course of last year, and that they had much pleasure in renewing the licenses, hoping that the same course would be pursued by the applicants during the next year. DERBY SWEEPS. Mr. G. T. Street, landlord of the Adam's Arms, Hamp stead-street, Fitzroy-square (after the licenses were granted), was called in. The CHAIRMAN said that there were notices in his house intimating that he allowed Derby Sweeps, and asked for what purpose he permitted them? Mr. Street stated that they were got up by the persons who came to his house for the purpose of amusing them selves. The CHAIRMAN asked if there was not some prize to be given away, and what was the highest prize ? Mr. Street replied that the highest prize was 201., and remarked that it he did not have some sort of amuse [next for his customers, that they would go to those houses where Darby Sweeps were allowed. The CHAIRMAN inquired at what other houses they were permitted ? Mr: Street referred to some in an adjoining pariah. The CHAIR3IAN having observed that the Bench had no jurisdiction over houses in another district, remarked, that Derby Sweeps had been declared by the Judges to be illegal, and the Bench had come to the determination not to tolerate them, as, instead of believing that any amusement was derived from them, they believed that an inducement was afforded to the poor man to apply his money to gambling. He cautioned him (Mr. Street) not to suffer them at his house. The license was granted. HOLBORN. In this extensive division there are 385 licensed houses. It comprises the parishes of St. Andrew, Holborn, con taining 80; St. George the Martyr, Bloomsbury, 22; St. Giles-in-the-Fields, 98; St. George, Bloomsbury, 40; the Liberty of Saffron-hill, llatton-garden, and Ely-rents, 29; the Liberty of the Rolls, 10; the Liberty of the Duchy, 18; the parish of St. John, Hampstead, 29; and the parish of Paddington, 37. Two licenses were refused, and eight others were suspended until the adjournment day, which was fixed for the 2lst of March. Upon the victuallers in the parish of Paddington being called in, The HAIRXIN (Mr. J. Whiskin) complimented them upon the fact of there not being a single complaint throughout the district for the whole year. It was said that in tome of the houses what were called " Derby Sweeps" were held; now he (the Chairman) might, upon that occasion, say that it was not the intention of the Bench to take any notice of this circumstance, because of the existence of Derby clubs they had no official knowledge; nevertheless, this they had decided upon, not to grant a renewal of license to any house whim such " sweeps" were permitted, supposing any complaint arose out of them. They did not consider such "clubs' any part of the business of a ♦ictualler; and, if it was shown in any case that their encouragement led to the improper conduct of any house, they (the magi►trates) intended to take care that such a cause should no longer be tolerated. Other routine business having been transacted, the Bench adjourned until the 21st inst. RECEPTION OF THE EX-ROYAL FAMILY OF FRANCE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Having read in yours of the 29th ult. the letter of Mr. Walter Savage Landor respecting the reception of the ex-Royal Family of France, as also your remark upon it, viz., that it would be unmanly to visit the sins of the unprincipled Sovereign upon the " poor, weak, and despised old man," who comes to us as an humble suppliant for a place whereon t o rest " hi s grey die crowned head," which sentiment really does you honour, allow me and many others who coincide in my views to remark that, politically considered, Mr. Landor after all may not be so far out in his calculations; for I contend that the manner in which they have been received in this country is sufficient to call down on our heads the consuming fury of those who by the late events have released themselves from the thraldom which bound them down. I would be the last man to declaim against the lauding of the ex-King, still the very act of our Government having ready a steamer to bring him to this country is at once to tell the French nation, that although Louis Philippe for the space of eighteen years has been ungenerous and ungrateful enough to have done all which lay in his power to annoy and put to expense and inconvenience this country; still royalty is so dear to us, that rather than not have them at all, we prefer London being made the hotbed for the intrigues and plottings of those whom we, from past experience, must know heartily and sincerely despise us. Depend upon it, Sir, that unless we wish to embroil ourselves in a war with the French people, the sooner this unfortunate family leaves us the better. It might be considered generous on our part; but is it politic? I am, Sir, your obedient servant, C. W. City, March 2, 1848. CLONMEL, MARCII 4.—At twelve o'clock to-day, John Daly, for the attempted assassination of R. U. Bayly, Esq., and Terence Corboy, for the murder of Gleason —the two last examples of the Special Commis- E ion—expiated their offence at the front of Clonmel gaol. The same troops as those which composed the guard st the preceding execution were in attendance, under the command of Sir Charles O'Donnell, commandant of the garrison. The wretched culprits seemed quite recoil ciled to their doom. They advanced to the front of the drop with trembling steps, and appeared to be exceed ingly weak. They had scarcely put their feet upon the gallows when the bolt was withdrawn, and having re ceived an immense fall, their struggles were but of brief duration. The number of spectators was not as large as that which attended the other executions, and nut the slightest sympathy was expressed for their well-merited and untimely tate. Thero were a few friends of Daly present with a coffin, and at three o'clock they took away his remains from this town. Corboy was buried In the course of the day b es id e t h e ot h er murderers, who sleep within the gloomy precincts of the prison.—/fenagh Guardian.

NORYII BRITISH RAILWAY COMPANY.--The hay yearly meeting of the shareholders of the . North British Railway Company was held yesterday in Gibbs's Saloon, Edinburgh ; John Learmouth, Esq. , in t he chair. A highly satisfactory report was read by the secretary, showing a considerable increase in the traffic, and $ revenue which would have yielded a dividend at the rats of 6 per cent., had not the d irectors . recommended that , a portion of it shou ld be set apart as a reserved fund. Thinking it prudent to take such a co urse , t h ey now proposed that the dividend should be five per cent., or 12s. 6d. on the 251. shares, and 2s, 6d. on the 51, shares. The report ‘vas unanimously adopted, and authority given to the directors to compel payment of calls.
